Both superpowers have millions of troops, and they are elite troops compared to the Qin Dynasty, so their military strength is naturally above the Qin Dynasty. [26nbsp;] However, the two countries are far away from the Qin Dynasty, and it is much more difficult to attack than defend the city. Therefore, the two countries did not rush to attack, but each mobilized the troops of the major powers to join the coalition forces, replenish their troops, and then launched an attack after they were fully prepared.
However, the intervention of the eight temples immediately forced the two major powers to temporarily stop their actions. Of course, the two superpowers were unable to fight against the eight temples, and immediately reported to the Dongfang family. The Dongfang family came forward to negotiate with the temple. The two major powers temporarily remained silent and just secretly contacted other countries.
Xu Sancai guessed from all kinds of clues that the temple's intervention had caused the two major powers to temporarily give up the war. He immediately asked his subordinates to contact the eight temples and use the right of the temple to establish branches in the territory of the Qin Dynasty, and demanded that the eight temples and the Qin Dynasty cooperate fully to resist the invasion. The temple took the opportunity to start bargaining with the Qin Dynasty and intervened in the management of the territory.
Speaking of which, Xu Sancai's biggest enemy is the Eight Great Temples, who is the successor of the Elemental Dharma Hall. When the Eight Great Temples joined forces to wipe out the Dharma Hall, they were naturally worried about rekindling. If they knew that he was the successor of the Elemental Dharma Hall in the future, they would inevitably join forces to deal with him at all costs. It can be said that they are mortal enemies who will never stop.
But at present, Xu Sancai will not have a conflict with the temple head-on. In fact, the temple has set up a large number of branches in the territory, which will increase the influence of the temple and will also be poached a large number of talents by the temple. But one thing is that he cannot turn against the temple at present, and the strength of the temple is scattered across the Qin Dynasty. At that time, the Qin Dynasty suddenly launches and flattens these branches in one fell swoop, which can reduce the strength of the temple by half. Therefore, he still allows the temple to open branches in the territory.
The territory and number of residents of the Qin Dynasty are now well-deserved as the largest country in the mainland. Especially after the Qin Dynasty annexed Wan Qing and several major powers, its influence has far exceeded those superpowers. The eight temples sent envoys to contact the Qin Dynasty. Xu Sancai had not met in person before, but because the Qin Dynasty had been in a state of war, the temple knew that he was in charge of himself, so he was not particularly dissatisfied with this.
Now, in order to gain time, Xu Sancai took the initiative to contact the eight major temples. The temple naturally attached great importance to it and immediately sent a special envoy to discuss, but he always insisted on allowing the temple to intervene in the daily management of the county town. Of course, he could not agree. This would not only make him lose control of the territory, but also likely to be attacked by other large forces.
Xu Sancai learned about diplomacy in his previous life and kept bargaining with the Eight Great Temples, using the complete closure of the temple branches as a threat, and using the covenant as the bottom line, finally reached a temporary agreement with the Eight Great Temples: the Eight Great Temples will insist on being the supervisor of the covenant and will not allow any violation of the covenant to happen, and the Qin Dynasty will give the best treatment that other forces in the temple can give.
This is a strategy of Xu Sancai. He and the temple envoy said that the Qin Dynasty planned to agree to the temple's requirements, but this violated the covenant. If other forces first gave the temple these rights, he could naturally refer to them, and there was no need to worry about the attacks of other forces. Of course, the temple needs to first obtain these rights from other forces, and the Qin Dynasty could only refer to them.
In order to gain more rights, the temple needs to first open a gap among the forces of the Eastern Family. Therefore, they immediately agreed to supervise the every move of the two major countries as the defender of the covenant. The temple of course has selfish intentions: if the Eastern Family does not agree to the intervention of the Temple, naturally, the Great Chu and Jin will not be able to join the war, and it will not be able to curb the expansion of the Great Qin, which will seriously affect the interests of the Eastern Family. This is the best time to force the Eastern Family to make concessions.
Once the Eastern family is forced to give in, the temple can naturally get the same treatment in Daqin. In this way, the temple can completely intervene in secular affairs in the eastern part of the mainland. Even the other three major families will find it difficult to stop the development of the temple. It only takes a certain amount of development time, and more than half of the countries in the mainland will be controlled by the temple.
But the temple did not know that Xu Sancai had his own ideas when he did this: not let the temple intervene in secular affairs and the temple was interfering, the two superpowers naturally could not attack the Qin Dynasty. But once the Dongfang family agreed to the temple's request, it would be equivalent to violating the alliance and would inevitably threaten the interests of the other three major families. The Dongfang family was at a disadvantage due to the rise of the Qin Dynasty. I am afraid that the other three major families would be happy to take the opportunity to annex it and then divide the sphere of influence of the Dongfang family.
When the temple came forward, all the pressure was transferred to the Dongfang family. Of course they understood: agreeing to the temple's request would inevitably become a verdict for the other three major families to join forces to encircle them; and if they did not agree, with the temple as an obstacle, the Da Chu and the Da Jin coalition could not enter the war at all. Of course, the Dongfang family also knew that even if the Qin Dynasty was wiped out, if the temple was allowed to intervene, the influence of the Dongfang family would inevitably gradually shrink in the future, and it would inevitably be difficult to escape the decline.
The suspension of the war has become a game behind the scenes between the two major forces. Of course, the other three major families are also putting pressure on the Eastern Family. The temple's intervention in the Eastern Family forces will inevitably gradually spread to other regions. At that time, the influence of the three major families will inevitably be gradually weakened.
The Eastern Family was in a dilemma. Originally, their plan was to pay part of the rights of the existing territory of the Qin Dynasty, but now the Temple has an agreement with the Qin Dynasty, and the Temple is not optimistic about the Great Chu and the Jin coalition. After years of war, the Temple of course was also watching the miracles that the Qin Dynasty continued to create, and was also secretly studying the Great Qin.
Of course, the Temple also planned to study Xu Sancai, but he only showed strong combat skills in front of others. His flexible and maneuverable tactics and elusive food burning and assassination in the war impressed the Temple. The Temple was also investigating the forces behind him. The final conclusion: 60% behind the Qin Dynasty was the Assassin's Guild, 20% were the Thieves Guild, 10% were the Adventurers Guild, and 10% may not have any background.
Because the temple could not be confirmed, it naturally could not offend the Assassin's Guild. However, the temple was inspired by it. While trying to intervene in secular affairs as a supervisor, it began to look for a target, intending to build a puppet state and control actual power.
Therefore, the temple was very tough in the negotiations and insisted on its own conditions not loosening. Under the pressure of the other three aristocratic families, the Dongfang family was unable to agree to let the temple intervene in secular affairs for its own interests. The Dongfang family felt the suspiciousness of the attitude of the temple and secretly used the family's power in the temple to investigate the reasons.
