Chapter 1099: Talking About the Current Situation
"Bailie's location and output are very good, and it has a deep connection with Lingshan; but! If the cost of keeping Bailie is too high and exceeds the gain that Bailie can bring to the country of Mou, then..."
The trade-off between big countries may be accompanied by the sacrifice of small forces.
"So Lu Zhensheng has been working hard to prove that Bailie is very useful to Mou State. He may not be able to understand Emperor Mou's mind, but he instinctively feels the danger." He Lingchuan sighed, "Unknowingly, Bailie is still We have come to this point, and it’s all because of the weakness of the Lu family.”
Placing all your hopes for life on others will doom you to a tragic end. The only difference is whether that day comes sooner or later.
Looking at the sand table at this time, the soul-capturing mirror felt urgent: "Then, what are you going to do?"
"Nothing to do." He Lingchuan shrugged, "It's still the same, they beat theirs first, and I develop mine."
"Ah?" This answer was beyond Jing Jing's expectation. He thought his master would speed up and capture Bailie first. "Aren't you afraid that Bailie will be swallowed up by Yaguo?"
Does He Lingchuan have the ability to make Yaguo vomit out the fat he has eaten? The mirrors were worried for him.
"There's no rush." He Lingchuan smiled, "Do you think Yaguo will swallow Bailie in one go?"
"No way?" Soul-Taking Mirror felt that his brain was not enough.
"It has been able to do that for a long time. Why is it still rubbing shoulders with Lu Qinglin on the front line now?"
"Well……"
"Ya Kingdom and Bejia have always been in secret, and attacking Bailie may be part of their strategy." He Lingchuan threw the flag to the boundary of Bailie on the sand table, "If I were the leader of Ya Kingdom, I would not swallow Bailie in one gulp. After all, after taking Bailie, Yaguo will be bordering Mou, and it will definitely not want to take all the war pressure from Bejia to its side. "
"A better way is for the Kingdom of Ya to continue attacking Bailie, so that the Kingdom of Mou has to divide its troops to rescue, thus continuing to lose blood and combat power. This step is also the battle plan of the Kingdom of Ya in cooperation with Bejia."
"So, Yaguo's intrusion on Bailie will last at least one or two years, and it will be intermittently, making Mouguo tired of rescuing Bailie, and finally give up Bailie. At that time, Yaguo will have no trouble swallowing this prey again. ." He Lingchuan's own thinking became clearer as he thought about it, "Although Yaguo's battles were wild and fierce, judging from the leader's past behavior, he was calm and not aggressive, so he reused generals like Wulu."
Since taking in Wan Qifeng, a Bailong tribe, He Lingchuan has paid close attention to collecting information and intelligence about Yaguo, especially Yaguo's famous battles in the past, and analyzed them carefully.
After all, from now on this is a neighbor who is annoying and cannot be moved away.
"In the next period of time, Bailie should be in no hurry; I also have time to deal with the matters at hand." Others are coveting Bailie, but he is not in a hurry, "The biggest variable is actually Mou Guo. If it suddenly loses to Bejia and the situation takes a turn for the worse, Yaguo will speed up its efforts to annex Bailie. But for now, this is very unlikely."
The foundation of Mou State is still very strong, and there is still huge war potential that has not yet been developed.
"When Mou Guo regards Bai Lie as useless, it is a pity to abandon it, and there is no way to protect it, that is when Ya Guo is about to annex Bai Lie." He Lingchuan's eyes flashed, "If we take action to cut off Hu at that time, do you think Mou Guo is harmonious? What’s the reaction of the Yahuang Congress?”
"Ya Guo must be furious." Jing Jing chuckled, feeling happy just thinking about it. "As for Mou Guo, well, it has to give up Bailie anyway. Who takes it away is not the same thing."
"Of course it's different." He Lingchuan smiled, "When I take down Bailie, it means that the rich water will not flow to outsiders. As long as Ya Guo can't take it away, Mou Guo will be happy."
What's more, he has friendship with Lingshan and Mou State. Isn't it better for Bailie to fall into his hands than to fall into the hands of Ya State?
Then, the difficulties he faces after taking Bailie will be greatly reduced.
"As for Lu Qinglin -" He Lingchuan relaxed after thinking about it, "He is also protecting Bailie and letting him shine at the border. But he is already a general of Mou State and cannot stay for a long time. Wait until he is transferred back. After Mou Guo, who will protect Bailie?"
The mirror murmured: "Aren't they still deer... Qingbang brother and sister?"
"After Lu Zhensheng and his son suppressed the Lu Laoliu family, they will still have to rely on Bailie to defend the territory. Do you think Lu Laoliu and the rest of the Lu family can't be disappointed?" He Lingchuan said with a smile, "Yes. If Lu Zhensheng and his son are not digging a hole for themselves, how many countermeasures should I use to achieve such a centrifugal effect? So, I might as well give them a little more time and let Lu Zhensheng and his son do their best."
He stood up and stretched:
The decision has been made, the plan to capture Bailie is on hold!
Since he has nothing important to do, he simply takes over the missions of Lingshan and Mou Guo, temporarily leaves the Yangshan Islands, and goes to the Shining Gold Plains.
The soul-catching mirror said again: "The task given to Lingshan this time is so far away, do you really want to do it? What's the benefit of this?"
"How much do you know about the Golden Land and the Qian River Basin?"
"Ah?" Soul-Taking Mirror was confused, "I had never heard of it before you got this booklet."
It woke up from a long dormancy. It had been sleeping in Bejia's Qing Palace. How could it know the vicissitudes of life outside?
He Lingchuan walked back to the sand table and restarted his magical power.
Soon, brand-new mountains and rivers appeared on the sand table.
There is no shortage of mountains or water here, and the landforms are diverse, including mountains and plains, snow-covered lakes, plateau peninsulas, and even a few bare deserts can be seen through the telescope.
This vast land is located on the northeast side of Yaguo, across the great lake.
For He Lingchuan, it was a whole new world.
The soul-catching mirror looked at it for a long time: "Why does it look so familiar?"
"Maybe you have been there?" He Lingchuan reminded it, "This place has a long history."
"I..." The soul-catching mirror remembered, "My first owner has been there, but that was a long, long time ago, and it was not called the Land of Glittering Gold at that time!"
The first owner of this mirror? That was more than two thousand years ago.
He Lingchuan pointed to the sand table: "Let's talk about the most recent. About one thousand to eight hundred years ago, a powerful empire rose in this area, called the Glittering Gold Empire."
The mirror interrupted: "The good times didn't last long. Did the glory of the empire only last for two hundred years?"
"Two hundred years, it was very strong. Most small countries are revolving around, and very few can last for fifty years." For hundreds of years, "turmoil" has been the theme of this world.
"The Shining Gold Empire disappeared, leaving only the plain named after it. Later, various small countries continued to appear in this area, encroaching, annexing, and replacing each other, but a powerful kingdom like the Shining Gold Empire never appeared again. To this day, there are still a lot of small countries here." He Lingchuan sighed, "I heard that the relationship between them is very complicated."
"Neighbors always have disputes." Soul Mirror thought for a while, "Hey, did you read all this from the book?"
"Not only that. I also attended a few classes in the Imperial Academy of Lingxu City, which focused on the humanities and landscapes around the world. Two of the classes talked about the Shining Gold Plain." The Imperial Academy of Lingxu City is open to the public from time to time, and even outsiders like him can listen and ask questions. Shao Jian's book can only record more than 160 years ago; the current situation of the Shining Gold Plain still needs He Lingchuan to pay attention to himself: "Currently there are a total of 24 countries, big and small, not counting the various unowned areas where there is no one in charge. Natural disasters and man-made disasters have never stopped. It is called the abandoned land of heaven."
Bejia is a country favored by heaven, but the Shining Gold Plain has become a abandoned land of heaven.
Soul-catching mirror asked casually: "What is the reason?"
"The old scholar of Lingxu Imperial College concluded that the reason is history and family feud." He Lingchuan has developed a habit in Panlong World and is very serious in class. "It has been broken up for nearly a thousand years. Most people have no concept of a unified empire and do not yearn for it. Some countries have accumulated deep hatred over the years. After several generations or even dozens of generations, they are still attacking each other after the country is destroyed and the family is ruined."
"In short, it can be summarized as a historical problem. Of course, this kind of open class will not teach more in-depth content. Some deep reasons may not be suitable for ordinary people." He Lingchuan smiled, "In fact, I really want to go to the Shining Gold Plains, and these tasks are very suitable."
Soul-catching mirror did not understand: "Why? Isn't such a large Yangshan Islands enough for you to toss?"
This master is busy all day long, and he still thinks he is not tired enough?
"To be honest, it's not enough." He Lingchuan smiled slightly, "Being a leader is exciting, you don't understand."
After working hard for almost a year, the tourism, trade, internal affairs, military escort, foreign exchanges and other work of Yangshan Islands are basically on the right track. The economy has formed a positive cycle of self-sufficiency and surplus, foreign trade exchanges are frequent, military strength is increasing day by day, and the external environment has stabilized.
Three months after he took over Yangshan Islands, he successively solved the open guns of Beijia, the hidden arrows of Bailie, the pushing of Lingshan and Mouguo, and successfully obtained the disguised permission of the two empires of Mouguo and Beijia, so that he could gain a foothold and grow stronger in the new world.
The various systems of Yangshan Islands have not been perfected yet, and there are still many areas for improvement. For example, the number of Yangshan Guards has increased too fast, the composition is complex, and the military system needs to be further optimized; the number of permanent residents on each island has tripled in six months, and the management methods for residents must also be revised; for example, the types of agricultural products on the island are single, and there is still room for improvement and introduction, etc.
But He Lingchuan does not intend to do these things himself.
He is already a lord, and he shouldn't be in charge of everything. The direction of his future efforts, and also the difficulty, is to have a bird's-eye view and know how to use people.
His old subordinates grew up with him, and those who can still stay in their posts are all very capable, and they should take most of the construction pressure for him.
If they can't be divided, then replace them.
As for He Lingchuan himself, he has more important things to do.
The Yangshan Islands are just a small island, and he can let go of it halfway after it is built.
He has worked hard for half a year, isn't it just to be a half-hands-off shopkeeper in the end?
