Chapter 1196 1196: The Expensive Prisoner (Part 1) [Please vote]
“I’m afraid that sending troops will turn into a funeral...”
It’s really hard to pick up the hot potato thrown by Zhen Guo .
More than ten years ago, the Northwest Continent suffered a bloody blow, and it’s not like they didn’t want a share of the pie. However, the national power of individual countries was declining, and alliances could not be reached for many times. Coupled with civil strife and the setbacks in the central continent, the opportunity was missed.
After a few years, I wanted to bring up the past again. Who would have thought that the fragmented northwest continent would become more stable as time went by, and finally a situation where Kanggao and Kangxi existed side by side. If you think about taking action at this time, your chances of winning are almost slim.
Unless several powerful countries in the central continent join forces to conquer.
Draged, dragged, until the state of Gao was annexed by the state of Kang.
No matter what the reputation of the Northwest Continent is, the size of Kang State is there, and they can easily exert great pressure on small countries without doing anything. The leader of a small country close to Kang State has been unable to sleep at night these past few months, and is always startled by every slightest change!
A few months later, Kang State had no intention of sending troops to other countries. Instead, it promoted biographies of famous ministers and celebrities. The heads of some small countries discussed with their ministers the intention behind Shen Tang's move, and the ministers' opinions tended to be unified: "The person named Shen must be testing us." 】
What to test them for?
Naturally, it was to test their views on the Northwest Continent.
In this era, the regional blacks also have a clear chain of contempt, and the source of the chain of contempt is the Thief Star! When the Thief Star came into the world, the Northwest Continent was the last to develop. During the two hundred years or so, it had the least regional unified political power and the shortest time to recuperate.
Over time, the overall strength of the Northwest Continent is also declining.
While the warlords were fighting in the melee, other regions began to adopt the orthodoxy of Wen Dao/Martial Dao, and many new things emerged. The Northwest Continent was still making headlines, and warlords also used the same old methods to fight. To put it simply, it is several versions behind other regions.
The Biography of Famous Ministers and Celebrities is to reverse the prejudice of other regions against the Northwest Continent! At the same time, it also lays the groundwork for the future use of troops!
After all, this is a barbaric land, what kind of celebrities can emerge?
It’s easy to imagine how well-intentioned it is to create momentum like this.
Many people present have read the content there. It is full of sensationalism but not substantial enough. It is enough to fool the ignorant people, but do you want to be in a high-class society? Huh, how many of the nine are qualified? In a word, they are a group of people who are seeking fame and reputation!
I feel disdainful in my heart, but I can't say it out loud.
Kang State is located in the northwest. It is a barbaric land compared to the central part, but it does not mean that its strength is weak. On the contrary, Kang Guo, a savage, was tall and strong, with his limbs all covered with tight and swollen muscles. A pair of fists could beat a scholar to death.
Kangguo is a savage, and they are scholars.
Their arms are twice as thick as their thighs.
All countries have a headache for this close neighbor who is not far away. While they despise each other's savagery in their hearts, they are also afraid of each other's wildness. No matter how good the war strategy is, no matter how mysterious and unpredictable the changes in the military formation are, it will still be useless when encountering an opponent who likes to use violence to solve everything.
His fists can still kill the old master.
Not to mention that Kang Guo is still a master who knows how to punch randomly.
The Zhenguo envoy who moved the rescue troops was filled with sadness and cried: "You gentlemen, can you hear that your lips are dying and your teeth are cold? Our country is currently in a situation where we are holding a snake and riding a tiger. If we are not careful, we will be in danger of national destruction. Even so, we still have to fight to the end. Courage, risk the fate of the country! Today is my country, and tomorrow will be your country, who can really stay out of it? "
This is not just a crisis for Zhenguo.
It is also a future crisis for Kang's neighbors.
"If you are indifferent to our country's situation today, what will you do if you have a sword hanging on your neck tomorrow?" The messenger's words struck the biggest fear in the hearts of his neighbors. Shen Youli is not a beast that only knows how to sleep, but an evil beast that is full of energy and prone to hunger!
Shen Tang would beat Zhenguo without saying a word, and he would also beat them suddenly and violently. One-on-one, who can stop Kang Guo?
No one can!
The neighboring country's leader exhaled a sigh of relief and made a decision in his heart.
In the morning, he promised the envoy of Zhen Kingdom to borrow troops to help drive away Shen Tang. In the afternoon of the next day, he received news of the destruction of Zhen Kingdom, and the reinforcements from neighboring countries had not yet been integrated and left the camp. The Zhenguo envoy who received the news couldn't bear the blow, screamed and fainted.
The neighboring kings and ministers were dumbfounded: "How is that possible?"
This is not the past day or two, but the past month or two, right?
Or did time secretly fast forward without them noticing?
"How many days did it take from the time when the man named Shen sent troops to the time when the Zhen Kingdom was destroyed?"
Someone replied in a low voice: "Go back to the Lord, three days."
The neighbor's The whole court was quiet, and you could hear a needle drop.
Three days, only three days!
In just three days, a country that has been in existence for more than 20 years has completely turned into history! Among the close neighbors, there are still small countries whose national strength is not as good as that of Zhenguo. They are even more frightened when they hear this. No one is afraid of anyone!
Some people are afraid, and naturally some people are angry and complain.
"What is the difference between Shuzi's behavior and that of a tyrant?" Even Zheng Qiao back then did not do anything immoral such as destroying a country for no reason. This man named Shen deliberately sent envoys to provoke and forcibly sent troops. If they occupy Zhenguo, aren't they just full-blown robbers and bandits?
His voice echoed in the palace, and no one dared to answer.
Towards Shen Tang and Kang Guo, I dare not speak out in anger.
Some people were cursing, some were silent, and some people thought of one thing: "For the present plan, we should unite all the allies to compete with Kang State, so that we can have a chance to breathe. As time went on, Kang State defeated us one by one, and there will be no more The power of recovery. ”
The alliance is their only way to survive. Everyone knows this truth in their hearts, but they all know that this road is not easy to follow.
First of all, not everyone has the courage to risk everything. Kang State has only destroyed Zhen State at present, and has no intention of pursuing the victory and destroying another country. If someone wants to fight, they will form an alliance. Handing the handle to someone, isn't this looking for death?
Secondly, each country is small and has uneven resources. How to mobilize, gather, and use them is also a problem.
Sanlai——
It is also the most realistic question, can it be won?
Currently, only the countries that received Zhenguo's request for help know about this matter. Together, these countries are larger than one big state. To put it nicely, it means an alliance of countries resisting, but to put it more ugly, it means that one state is attacking another country. The chance of winning is very small to the naked eye.
The back and forth between the two sides can only delay the pace of the destruction of the country.
“…It’s better to be safe.”
“How to be safe?”
"First send people to stabilize Kang State, and secretly send people to lobby the central powers to join. We respect him as the leader of the alliance and we will fight together." You must find helpers to fight together!
This proposal was supported by most of the courtiers.
But, the question is——
“How to stabilize Kang State?”
"You can do whatever you want."
"What does the leader of Kang State like?"
As soon as these words were said, the ministers were silent again. They really didn't know much about Kang State. As a small salted fish country, they have a small territory and few resources, and all the things they enjoy are similar to those of other small countries. Kang Guo was different, causing a bloody storm as soon as he was born.
Either at war or on the way to war.
For such a dangerous country, small salted fish countries either rely on or avoid it. In the past, we were far away, and no matter how noisy Kang Guo was, he could not be affected. But now and then, people moved here! Kang Guo can stir up trouble in his own small pond with just a flick of his tail.
It’s still a stormy sea for Xianyu!
Therefore, the understanding is not comprehensive.
The one with the most is undoubtedly the despised biography of famous ministers and celebrities.
The ministers: "..."
Someone sighed: "I heard rumors from the public that Kang's sending troops to Zhenguo may have something to do with Zhenguo sending men to marry."
< br>
"Marriage? Who do you want to marry?"
"It is said that it is with the king of the country."
Of course, the talented man who came to marry and the dowry did not want to be the main wife. Women are different from men. Men's children can come from different women's bellies, but women's children all come from the same belly. In this case, there is no difference in the status of legitimate concubine.
A discerning person can understand these calculations at a glance.
What people with discerning eyes don’t understand is how dare Zhenguo do it!
When copying homework, you don't even look at the conditions of the question?
"If this is true, it will help us avoid the wrong answer." To stabilize Kang Guo, male beauties cannot be given away, "If you can't give them away to men...be safer and don't give away women either..."
I have never heard that people named Shen have a habit of grinding mirrors.
What else can I give?
As a last resort, I copied the answers everywhere. There was more than one country, Zhenguo, that sent gifts to Kanguo before. Other small countries also went to pay homage to the dock, but Zhenguo was beaten. Avoid wrong answers. Even if the remaining answers are wrong, they will not lead to death.
Each country secretly selected an envoy to go to the central continent to lobby.
They were waiting for Shen Tang's reaction, and Shen Tang was waiting for their actions.
Looking at the list of gifts on the desk, she chuckled: "Zhenguo didn't make a fortune in this battle, but after the battle, he accepted the gifts mercilessly. After all, it is a filial piety, accept it. ..."
"Does Mr. Shen have the intention to pursue the victory?"
Shen Tang thought for a moment, closed his eyes and put it down. Killing Heart murmured softly, as if he was answering the visitor, and seemed to be convincing himself: "It is not the time to pursue the victory! It is not difficult to clean up these small countries, but doing so at this time will only make it more difficult for yourself. If you keep them, you can also control their territory As a buffer area for the northwest and central countries, relations will not be too tense..."
She still wanted to take the southwest first.
The southwest and northwest started fighting to attack the central part.
Imagine how hard and difficult it was to establish the Caotai team back then, but now it is so easy to wipe out an entire country. This feeling of exhilaration is fascinating and addictive. But in the face of this temptation, Shen Tang restrained himself and even spared his energy to suppress others.
No matter how strong you are, you cannot destroy other countries casually.
Shen Tang raised his eyes and looked at the other party: "Sir, you have no good intentions."
The person in front of me has a new face.
His hair is like black algae, his complexion is fair, and his facial features are deeper than those of ordinary people, but not as sharp as those of aliens, somewhere in between. Not only that, this person has a beautiful face and charming temperament. In terms of appearance, he is on par with Zheng Qiao back then.
Looking around and around, it captures the soul.
Just look at the face, it’s a woman.
Looking at the figure, he looks more like a man.
When Shen Tang saw him for the first time, he thought he looked like a boy or a girl. He thought that the prisoner could be kept as a pleasing vase without killing him, and asked Qi Shan who had brought him here with his eyes: "You are bringing this man here?" What are you here for? Could it be that he is your enemy? 】
Why does this man have enemies wherever he goes?
Qishan pulled Shen Tang to the side hall to talk.
[This man is a member of the Central Branch of the Society of Gods and has had dealings with him in his early years. 】 Qishan's eyes brightened a little. Hearing the second half of Shen Tang's sentence, he said with a hint of annoyance, "They are not enemies." 】
Shen Tang doubted: [Really? I don't believe it! I clearly feel that he has murderous intentions towards you, and his eyes are going to kill you! 】
Qishan coughed and said: [It's just a bit excessive. 】
Shen Tang said clearly: [I understand. 】
Qishan explained: [It’s really just a little holiday, the situation is different from Gongsu and others. I accidentally watched him bathing in the wild...]
Shen Tang: [...]
