Chapter 719: The Heart of a King
Zhao believes that although Wang is now down, in history, Wang will leave a heavy mark. Did the Assassin Slave Shan Yu Wang ever think that the Assassin Slave herdsmen could freely enter and leave Blackwater City? Have you ever thought that the Assassin Slave could study, intermarry, buy a house, and even become an official in the imperial court in the Great Qin Empire?"
"This ......"
"The king's decision will change this situation, the Thorn slaves still have their own cultural beliefs, and their own self-governing territory, the people no longer have to worry about war, live and work in peace and contentment, the population will surge, the economy will also flourish, the whole Thorn slave family, thriving, will no longer be looked down upon, will no longer be regarded as barbarians, the king thinks, isn't this a success?"
“...... Be. Shan Yu Wang hesitated.
"Many people are born at the wrong time, but the king, but it is in troubled times, at this time the king's decision, can push the entire Thorn slave clan into hell, can also bring the clan to heaven, in fact, the king does not have to be entangled with personal gains and losses, for a nation, any immortal hero can only keep a moment of peace, only the real king, will think of the whole nation eternal peace......"
There was silence, and a pin drop could be heard.
All the higher-ups of the thorn slave looked at Shan Yu.
Everyone knows very well that the conditions that Lan Caier and Zhao Yuan are talking about now are empty words, and if they don't cooperate, it will be difficult to control the direction of things.
There is no doubt that Zhao Yuan's words are personally persuading Shan Yu.
People didn't expect that the arrogant Zhao Yuan would actually persuade Shan Yu in person, which was a bit unexpected, after all, from the beginning of contact, Zhao Yuan was in a strong position from beginning to end.
Shan Yu was silent for a while, and his gray eyes looked at Zhao Yuan, as if he wanted to guess what Zhao Yuan really thought in his heart.
Zhao Yuan also looked at Shan Yu, and in his eyes, he was extremely sincere.
Zhao Yuan is very aware of the importance of Shan Yu in the plan, if there is no cooperation with Shanyu, all the plans will be aborted.
In dealing with such an ambitious person, force has little effect, and if he wants to be loyal to the Great Qin Empire, he must be spiritually persuaded to the other party.
"My father once said that when you are under a low eaves, why not bow your head? Seeing the situation clearly and lowering your posture is a sign of courage and wisdom. If we are confined to temporary gains and losses, and miss out on success, is it not a great regret? The truth is self-evident, and it is clear at a glance whether it is worth it or not, and which is more important and which is more important. It is impossible for one person to do everything well, and it is impossible to never need the help of others. When you are under the eaves, when you encounter difficulties, you may wish to bend down, lower your posture, and keep a low profile, and you may find that there are more opportunities in front of you. Shan Yu's voice was a little low, obviously, he had lost his fighting spirit.
"A person's dignity can be divided into inner dignity and outer dignity. A person's external dignity depends on his strength and achievements, while his inner dignity depends on a person's affirmation of the value of his own life, and has nothing to do with the evaluation of others. Inner dignity is the starting point and foundation of a person's dignity, and a person must first have self-esteem, and then he can have true dignity. Zhao Yuan said lightly.
"Respect is more important than life!" said Shan Yu after a long silence.
"Just because you ask someone doesn't mean they're more valuable than you, or that they're more dignified than you. It just means that in the matter you want to do, others have more initiative than you for various reasons. Because the initiative is in charge of others, you have to show a low profile, and showing a low posture is just to explain to the other party that in this matter, your strength is not as good as the other party, and you need the help of the other party, but it does not mean that your personality is low. Just as you have to pay for a doctor's appointment, you have to put down some face when you ask someone to do something – it's a concrete price to show the other person a low profile, and the cost, sometimes, can't be measured entirely with dignity. ”
The two seem to be talking to each other, but between these few words, there is a philosophy of life.
There was a long silence for a while.
For Shan Yu, the saddest thing is to lose his dignity, and loyalty to the Great Qin Empire means that he has no dignity, and even, equivalent to the last emperor, is likely to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
Zhao Yuan's words, although they did not make Shan Yu suddenly brightened, made Shan Yu less obsessed with dignity.
As Zhao Yuan said, a person's dignity depends on an affirmation of the value of his life, and allegiance to the Great Qin Empire can bring endless peace to the Assassin Slave clan, there is no doubt that this is the true meaning of life, but also the affirmation of value, is the heart of the king.
"I want to personally lead the army of assassins!" Shan Yu stared at Zhao Yuan and said word by word.
"No problem!"
Zhao Yuan smiled slightly and picked up his wine glass.
"No problem......
Shan Yu was stunned, originally, he thought that Zhao Yuan would weaken his leadership position under various excuses, and he even thought of a good countermeasure to force the other party to agree to his conditions, at least, to obtain a part of the military power, he never expected that Zhao Yuan would agree so readily without any hesitation.
Of course, once the Great Qin Empire has survived the crisis, I advise you to give up your military power, return to the Assassin Slave, and govern the Assassin Slave Prairie with peace of mind, so that the clansmen can live and work in peace and contentment. Zhao Yuan said lightly.
"Understood. ”
Shan Yu naturally understood what Zhao Yuan meant, once the situation of the Great Qin Empire took a turn for the better, if he still held on to the military power, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the current emperor.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with this.
Shan Yu wants military power now, not to beware of the Great Qin Empire anything, but to lead troops to fight, if he wins, he hands over the military power, and it can be regarded as a successful retirement, at that time, everything is no longer important.
When Shan Yu decided to be loyal to the Great Qin Empire, he had no interest in what happened after the victory, he knew very well that when that day came, the Great Qin Empire had recovered its vitality, and now, what he hoped most was to fight on the battlefield and be able to raise his eyebrows for the Thorn Slave Clan.
In fact, Shan Yu also thought that the status of the assassin slave in the future also depends on the merits made in this battle, the greater the merit, the greater the benefits of the assassination slave in the future, if you can have a certain say in the temple of the Great Qin Empire, it would be great......
......
Things have finally been decided.
This time Zhao Yuan's trip to the thorn slave seems to be uneventful, but in fact, just fighting with the major tribes, it can be said that there is an undercurrent, and if he is not careful, he will turn against the thorn slave clan, in order to reach an agreement, Zhao Yuan can be said to be walking on thin ice, for fear of taking a wrong step......
......
The Assassins began to gather.
The leaders of the major tribes have sent the bravest warriors of their tribes, countless young herdsmen have rushed over from all directions, and excellent war horses have also gathered in a steady stream.
Everyone knows that this battle will be related to the peace of the Thorn Slave Clan for countless years.
When the soldiers knew that Lu Dao would fight side by side with Zhao Yuan, their morale was high.
Wherever Zhao Yuan went, countless people would stop and watch, and people wanted to see what the person who could kill Lu Naro and Master Ruolin, the king of martial witches, looked like.
Looking at a pair of fanatical eyes, Zhao Yuan blushed a little, he didn't expect that he actually had so many fans in the Thorn Slave, you know, he originally thought that the Thorn Slave would hate him to the core.
In fact, Zhao Yuan didn't know what to do, in the history of the Assassin Slaves, he had always worshiped the strong, and in their opinion, although Zhao Yuan was an enemy, he was also a strong man worthy of respect......
......
As long as they ride a war horse, carry a saber on their waists, carry a longbow on their backs, and bring a few pieces of dried food and dried meat, they can immediately put themselves into battle.
There is no doubt that the efficiency of the Assassins is extremely high, and in just five days, the 150,000 army has been gathered, and they have also brought nearly 100,000 good horses to follow, and they are marching towards Blackwater City.
Zhao Yuan stood on the hillside, watching the overwhelming stinging slave cavalry rushing towards Blackwater City like a tide, and the shock in his heart was incomprehensible.
It is no wonder that the Thorn Slave clan has always been a problem for the Great Qin Empire, and in terms of efficiency alone, the Great Qin Empire is far behind.
If the Great Qin Empire wants to use 150,000 cavalry, it will take at least a month to prepare, and a large amount of food and weapons will be prepared, and it is unimaginable to rely on logistics supplies alone.
Nomads do have an innate advantage in mobility.
The only way to defeat the nomads in mobility is the appearance of hot weapons......
Thinking of the scene of a machine gun mount shooting flesh and blood flying on the grassland, Zhao Yuan had a crazy idea, and he had to control this idea with steely willpower.
Those devastating weapons must not be allowed to appear in the Battle Cloud Continent!
