January
Yan State
"This is probably all the information we have obtained about the Shenqi Kingdom at the moment."
On the stage, Wu was explaining a document.
A few days after the establishment of the Shenqi Kingdom, the Yan Kingdom, which was preparing to expand into the northern mountains, noticed that although the Shenqi Kingdom was a mountain tribe, it had a complete national structure.
After several days of testing, the Yan State sent a person to pretend to be a native tribe member of the Luolong Mountains and infiltrate to gather intelligence. After this period of investigation, they had roughly figured out the basic information.
Of course, several Yan State spies were discovered, but under Zhao Yuqing's leadership, they were not criticized too much. Instead, they were driven back to Yan State. This should be a signal that they no longer wanted to be enemies with Yan State.
"The people of Yan State are showing a relatively close relationship with Shenqi State, especially those original fanatics who even went so far as to directly merge with Shenqi State."
Wu continued.
"Let them go, as long as they can give up the benefits of Yan Country."
Duan Tianming said.
In Yan Country, people basically have no worries about food and clothing. Clothes and food are allocated by the state, and even Duan Tianming has to participate in this distribution.
Under this distribution model, even if productivity is not high, it can basically ensure that everyone can escape poverty. As long as they are sane, they will not give up the life in Yan Country and become savages in the mountains.
"In addition, the Shenqi Nation has basically integrated the primitive tribes we originally wanted to integrate. The entire nation is scattered throughout the Luolong Mountains, and the population has reached over 8,000."
Wu continued.
"How do they ensure internal communication and food?"
Luo Wu asked.
"The gods have basically put all their energy into it. All internal affairs are basically completely dependent on the cross-regional coordination of the divine domain. As for the food problem, there are food from the mountains and the poop I just mentioned. It can basically be maintained, but it is definitely not long-term."
Wu analyzed it in detail.
"They are definitely going to expand, but their sights are probably not on us. We think we can cooperate, but it should be after the war of gods."
Zhang Yun said.
"There is a basis for cooperation, but the specifics of how to cooperate are still under discussion. How to allocate the resources of the gods is also a problem."
The Human Emperor next to him said to Duan Tianming.
He was obviously very interested in these things at this time.
"really."
Duan Tianming said.
After the Human Emperor’s explanation, he is now troubled by the resource issue.
Originally there was only one kingdom of God, so the resources in the future would definitely not flow to outsiders. But now there are two kingdoms of God, and the resource issue will become more sensitive.
"Let's not discuss the issue of resource allocation for now. Let's see what she chooses and be prepared for a falling out."
Duan Tianming defined the matter, then looked at everyone in the conference room and said:
"For now, we should focus on communicating with the Shenqi Nation. We should send a few people to talk to them and see their reaction."
"Based on their attitude towards our Yan Nation, they probably don't want to be our enemy. Moreover, their ideas about the rise of the human race partially align with our interests. We will maintain a friendly attitude, and it's up to them whether it's compatible or not."
Duan Tianming said.
"yes!"
Everyone in the conference room started working as soon as they received the order. Although Duan Tianming emphasized centralization, he did not do much of the specific work, and there was no need for him to personally handle many things.
In general, at this time, Yan State had completely stopped its plan of the Northern Expedition, and everyone was making emergency preparations for war. The first war between gods in a few months made Duan Tianming very nervous. If he wanted to continue to develop, he had to work hard.
Under the pressure of war, a lot of production naturally revolves around serving the war.
Combined with the iron mines in the mountains, Yan State's cavalry production plant continued to produce at full capacity. Various weapons, especially armor, were produced in large quantities. Combined with the original accumulation, an armored army of 1,000 people was established.
Of course, the original archery army was still retained.
These troops are all existing reserve forces. Once they are trained and armed, they can quickly generate combat effectiveness when war breaks out.
Moreover, other tasks such as farming, ideological guidance, and external exploration are still being arranged and have not been shelved due to war preparations.
Preparations for exchanges with the Shenqi Nation are underway.
·····
In January, a delegation from Yan State went to Shen Qi State. This was the first official exchange delegation between Yan State and Shen Qi State.
"What? The Yan Country team is here?"
Li Fengshen was a little surprised. He walked out of the temple and headed towards the newly built reception room. At this time, Zhang Yun was already sitting inside, drinking tea from the porcelain bowl he brought with him.
"Hello, Divine Envoy Li!"
Zhang Yun said calmly.
He is a complete fake believer who has little respect for gods and their messengers.
"It turned out to be Minister Zhang. I've heard of him before."
Li Fengshen smiled and said that the weakening of belief in gods in Yan Country was manipulated by this Minister of Propaganda. Although he lived in a collective farm, Li Fengshen had also seen this person.
"I'm here on behalf of Yan Nation this time. I want to discuss some cooperation with Shenqi Nation. After all, we are all believers of Goddess Yuqing. I believe that our close cooperation is what Goddess Yuqing wants to see."
Zhang Yun said with a smile.
His words were flawless and very appropriate. On the one hand, it showed that Yan State was broad-minded, and on the other hand, it criticized Shenqi State's stinginess.
"Yes, our Shenqi Nation has had such plans for a long time, but the country has just been established and there are many things to do, so we have not sent an envoy to Yan Nation."
