As Di Xin's woman, Xizi is not like Wang Ruoqing, who follows Di Xin in everything no matter what is right or wrong.
She has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since she was a child, so she has always had her own independence. This is why Di Xin dared to let her go and control the think tank alone.
What he needs is someone who can help him do things, not a puppet who does everything he is told.
Xizi took over Shen Qianhua's words and said: "Your Highness, Northern Xinjiang needs time to develop now. Even if we have to send troops, why bother?"
"Why don't I know this?"
Di Xin sighed.
Although Beijiang has developed well in the past two years, it has not reached its limit yet.
In other words, this is when it just started to develop.
After two years of preparation, various policies of the think tank have been thoroughly popularized in northern Xinjiang. In addition, without the Turks watching from the sidelines, the next three to five years will be a period of rapid development in northern Xinjiang.
But the premise is to put the military on hold and spend most of our energy on people's livelihood.
As long as after these three to five years, Emperor Xin would have the biggest bargaining chip to fight for the throne with only Northern Xinjiang.
However, this speed is still too slow for Di Xin.
The three to five years in the Ancient Moon Realm would be converted into hundreds of thousands of years in the Prehistoric Realm. And this is just the fight for the throne of Da Li, and then there is no telling how much time it will take to fight for the entire Ancient Moon Realm.
Originally, Di Xin could not afford to spend this time.
Although Lin Qingyao was in a state of confusion most of the time, there was no shortage of time to wait.
Therefore, if possible, Di Xin would also choose this safe method.
But the phantom that appeared outside the prehistoric world cast a shadow over Di Xin's heart.
The fear of the unknown is the scariest thing, and this truth still applies even to the level of life of the World Master.
In other words, the emergence of something unknown to the world owner is even more frightening.
Otherwise, Xia would not be willing to find the answer for Di Xin just because of an unknown shadow.
Who knows if this phantom may have ill intentions towards other realm masters besides Di Xin, and preparing for a rainy day is an unbreakable principle in the hearts of all realm masters.
Since Di Xin is unwilling to give up the fight for the position of the leader of the Ancient Moon Realm, and he doesn't know when the phantom will change, there is only one way.
Speed up the arrival of the final battle of the Realm Lord War.
Although this involves some risks, it is the best choice for Di Xin now.
He was even prepared for the worst. Once the court wanted to punish him or give the crown prince position to King Cheng, he would not hesitate to rise up and attack before the court could react. .
However, according to Di Xin's speculation, although the imperial court would be dissatisfied with him sending troops without authorization, they would at most reprimand him before the defeat, and there would not be much movement.
With the power of the Turks wiped out a year and a half ago, even the king can only stumble secretly.
But in addition to the normal food supplies for the army, all the food supplies for the 30,000 troops can be supplied by the current power of Northern Xinjiang, so there is no need to worry about what King Cheng can do.
As long as he can win a few big victories, although he will make the border generals who are not part of the northern border unhappy, his achievements will be enough to offset the harm he will bring to the court because of this matter.
It will even further enhance his prestige.
After all, as long as they can win and the economy of Yanque Pass will not collapse due to this battle, the argument of resorting to militarism will naturally be defeated without attacking.
There is no need to tell everyone about things outside the Ancient Moon Realm. Maybe no one will believe it.
Di Xin just said that waiting for the development of Northern Xinjiang was too slow and there was no time at all.
Although there is not much explanation, everyone knows that King Yu will not make mistakes without aim.
Although they were puzzled, everyone still accepted this reason, and then it was not so abrupt for Di Xin to propose this plan.
Historically, the best way to expand power has been war.
Although the territory captured this time through this dispatch of troops will belong to Dali, it can further strengthen Emperor Xin's power in other ways.
Ouyang Xuan suddenly asked: "Your Highness, can't we send troops to the north of the grassland? Why must we attack Goguryeo and other places, and make other border generals unhappy for nothing?"
An Junshan explained: "Because we can only be famous by attacking countries such as Goguryeo and Ryukyu."
"That's right."
Di Xin said: "Although we want to send troops, we cannot become unjust troops, otherwise, the court will not allow us to do so."
Yes, Di Xin has also considered this issue, otherwise he would not have filled the wastepaper basket with waste paper last night.
Although he has the right to send troops, he must be famous for his troops.
There are indeed many forces further north in the grassland. After they are defeated, due to the location, they can only be temporarily handed over to Emperor Xin Dali, just like the grassland.
But because those forces are not bordering Dali, they have never invaded Dali. Some of them pay tribute every year and are tributaries of Dali.
There is no grievance or enmity. If Emperor Xin sends troops against those forces without any pretext, then this army will become an unjust army.
Emperor Xin's reputation would be quickly ruined, and the imperial court would even issue an imperial edict to remove him from his official position and directly question him.
At that time, Di Xin truly sent himself to a dead end.
Therefore, Di Xin's only choice was to attack the barbarian forces that had invaded Dali one by one along the border of Dali.
As for unifying the entire Ancient Moon Realm, that was something he could only do when he became the Emperor of Dali.
Moreover, since there are realm lords descending in the Turks, there may not be those in countries such as Goguryeo and Ryukyu.
If we don't eradicate their influence while they are still in their infancy, they will become a real danger when they become more powerful.
Di Xin looked around and said, "This time, I will personally lead the troops to the expedition."
That's right, since there is a possibility of encountering the Realm Lord, Di Xin can no longer hide behind. Otherwise, with a misjudgment, the 30,000 troops who went on the expedition may be defeated and return.
As soon as these words came out, An Junshan, Ouyang Xuan and Shen Qianhua were all shocked.
Time is an unavoidable issue. Since there is not enough time for stable development, they will naturally not oppose Di Xin's plan.
However, this does not mean that they agree with Emperor Xin's personal expedition.
It's not that he doesn't believe Emperor Xin, the previous countermeasures against the Turks have demonstrated His Highness King Yu's ability.
But the point is, His Royal Highness King Yu’s foundation is now destroyed. What if someone executes a beheading operation?
In the chaos, even though Zeng Hongshen was a great innate master, he might not be able to stop all sneak attacks.
If something happens to His Highness by then, it will be too late.
Although Zeng Hongshen and Xizi knew the truth, they also showed shocked expressions.
