Sitting high on the throne, Emperor Xin's eyes were as bright as a torch and he was serious and serious. Emperor Xin, who was born with the image of an emperor, could still calm down the lonely and important ministers and stabilize the situation of the government.
The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty felt extremely lucky to have a human king of Di Xin's generation.
After stabilizing Wen Zhong, Huang Feihu, dressed in military uniform, walked out directly.
"Reporting to your Majesty, there is something unusual happening in the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the south, and the great shaman of the ancestral temple has asked the royal court for help. Please send troops to the south to quell the chaos in the south."
As soon as Huang Feihu said it, there was an uproar, especially the civil servants, who frowned.
"King Wu Cheng, your Majesty has just returned from an expedition, and the south has not invaded the border. It is really not appropriate to send troops at this time."
Uncle Mei, the doctor, felt dissatisfied, so he immediately walked out and directly attacked Huang Feihu.
As soon as Mabel said it, many civil servants immediately agreed.
Huang Feihu didn't speak, but Li Jing walked out.
As the holder of Chaoge's military power when Emperor Xin was away on the expedition, Li Jing had a detached attitude. Now that Emperor Xin has returned, he has also returned to his original duty of Jiumenwu.
"Your Majesty, I think that if the south is unstable, the country will be uneasy. If you ask your Majesty, I can send troops to pacify the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
Li Jing spoke out, which immediately caused an uproar, and Mabel was stunned by anger. Just when he was about to speak, Abiyan walked out.
"Your Majesty, our ancestors have tried to pacify the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the past generations, but they have always ended up losing their armies and generals. Why don't you, your lord, a great leader, make proper preparations and go on a conquest to pacify the world?!"
The South seems to be the weakest among the four parties, but those miasmas are like natural barriers. Even if they are defeated, the actual gains are not much. Apart from adding some achievements, there is no other use.
Bigan objected because at this time, what we really needed to do was to recuperate and it was really not appropriate to overdo the expedition.
Bigan is the leader of the clan and also represents the meaning of the clan.
There are three forces in the Yin and Shang court: the civil servants headed by Shang Rong and Mei Bo, the close clan branch headed by Bigan, and the military headed by Wen Zhong.
Now that the civil servants and clans were all opposed to the expedition, Emperor Xin couldn't help but be wary.
Originally, Emperor Xin decided to go on this expedition, thinking that if he told the story in court, the officials and generals would definitely support him, the expedition was decided. However, something unexpected happened during the trip, which caught Emperor Xin off guard.
But even so, Di Xin must be fair on the surface, which is what he must do as the King of Shang.
Zhang Guifang, Hong Jin, Yu Hua, Ji Li, Yu Qing and other generals all knelt down to ask for a fight, and it seemed that they were getting out of hand.
At this moment, almost all the ministers looked at Wen Zhong. They all knew that if Wen Zhong insisted on going on an expedition, even the king would have to agree.
If Wen Zhong, the Optimus Prime Kingdom, did not agree, this expedition would be extremely difficult to carry out. Even Prime Minister Shang Rong looked at the Grand Master, hoping to see something in his eyes.
The grand master laughed, took out the method of pacifying the south from his arms, and then presented it.
The above content was naturally discussed, including barley, red pepper, insect repellent powder, quicklime method to prevent malaria, etc., and discussed in detail the feasibility of pacifying the south.
"Your Majesty, if we can pacify the south, we can open another large granary for the Yin Shang Dynasty and make it a land of fish and rice."
Wen Zhong painted a beautiful scene, a vision of making the people of Yin Shang rich, and of course he also painted a huge pie.
All the civil servants at the scene frowned. Wen Zhong's skill in painting cakes was top-notch, but none of these civil servants was not a master at painting cakes.
"May I ask Grand Master, how many soldiers will be needed for this expedition to the south?"
At this time, there were not many people who could really compete with Wen Zhong, but it happened that Prime Minister Shang Rong was just such a person.
The old Shang Rong spoke directly about the pain points and asked the essence in just one sentence.
In fact, what Shang Rong meant later was how many soldiers' lives were needed to fill this bottomless pit, and how many women would lose their husbands.
Wen Zhong glanced at Shang Rong and said, "Doctor Shang, if you don't fight, where will there be peace?"
Wen Zhong means
It's already obvious, don't bleed, don't fight, just stay in Chaoge and wait to die.
Upon hearing Zhongyi's words, Shang Rong was so angry that he coughed and flushed, saying, "For the sake of a barren land, I have to sacrifice the lives of thousands of my soldiers. I don't agree with this."
Seeing that Wen Zhong and Shang Rong were about to fight, Di Xin spoke up.
"This expedition to the Hundred Thousand Mountains is not entirely for those lands, but to open up the road to the south and expand the territory of the Yin Shang Dynasty again, so that I can compete for the throne of the Human Emperor."
Almost all the civil servants looked at Emperor Xin, and were even more shocked by the dignity of the human emperor in his words.
Since the founding of the country by Xia Yu, no one has mentioned the title of Human Emperor again. Until the founding of the Tang Dynasty, they still continued Xia Yu's path and closed themselves off and set up passes for this purpose.
Although there were many merchants in the Yin Shang Dynasty, they mostly traveled in caravans, and the hinterland implemented a policy of seclusion. People seemed to have completely forgotten the significance of the existence of the Human Emperor.
"The king's heart is truly..."
Shang Rong murmured to himself, but when he thought of the word "Human Emperor", he suddenly lost his temper.
After Shang Rong fell silent, Bigan was also silent for a while. Only Meibo stepped forward angrily and said, "May I ask, Your Majesty, if you want to give up the ancestor's strategy of becoming a soup and return to the conquest of Darkness?"
If you want to obtain the title of Human Emperor, in addition to opening up the country, you must conquer all directions and become the co-owner of all countries. With the current strength of the Yin Shang Dynasty, how can they have such strength.
This is a big strategy, and Mabel cannot be cautious about it. He knows very well that the human king in front of him is not just talking about it for fun.
And if there is a problem with the long-standing policy, then there will definitely be turmoil. This is the real reason why Shang Rong closed his eyes and said nothing.
"We, the Yin Shang Dynasty, have indeed been at peace for too long, or rather the human race has been at peace for too long. We are wary of danger in times of peace. Now that Gu has assumed the position of human king, and the hinterland of the Middle Earth has always been regarded as the righteousness of the human race, how can we stop moving forward?
.”
"You are ambitious to become the co-leader of the human race. Do you want to be a minister in seclusion?"
Di Xin looked around and saw that when he said this, all the generals were boiling with excitement, but the civil servants were surprisingly calm.
"Your Majesty, the struggle for supremacy in the ancient world is too cruel. I don't know how many soldiers will perish outside the country."
Mabel was still trying to persuade her, as if he had foreseen the cruel side.
Emperor Xin didn't know the seriousness of this, so he whispered to Mei Bo, "Doctor Mei, if you want to regain the dignity of the ancient human emperor, doesn't Doctor Mei want to be the ancestor of a generation?"
What does it mean to hit the sore spot directly? The shock that the ancient sages brought to these civil servants can be said to be what they could only dream of.
Seeing that the situation was changing, Mabel was not intoxicated in this dream, so he also whispered, "It's easier said than done! Your Majesty!"
"Doctor Mei, don't you want to create a new future? The trend is already here."
Meibo looked at Di Xin in front of him, but he already knew in his heart that he could not change the king's heart no matter what.
At that moment, Mabel said, "If the king can really make the south a land of plenty, I will support the king in opening up the country!"
Di Xin smiled in his heart.
[I made an agreement with the King of Humans that the south will become a land of plenty and plenty. Once the agreement is completed, Mabel’s loyalty can be raised to one red star!]
