"Wow, you've only been king for a few days, and you've already forgotten our past humiliations and our previous ambitions! You're already scared. Are you going to lose your life?"
"I haven't forgotten!" Zhu Aide stood up and shouted, "What do you know? You're just a reckless man. You only knew how to fight before. You think your troops are strong now, so you have to fight them!"
"Then do you think we don't need food to fight? Don't we need food for our soldiers and horses?"
"Do you have all this? This is all money. Do you have it? Besides this, we just went through a big battle. We finally established our Wolf Fang Empire. If you start a war again, they will definitely be very dissatisfied."
"Furthermore, if we provoke the Holy Empire or the Persian Empire now, they will gang up on us and we will be powerless to fight back!"
"You reckless man, how can you be so reckless!"
After hearing his words, Knight Commander Markya realized that he was indeed reckless in this matter. He just wanted to attack the Persian Empire as soon as possible.
He was mainly afraid that the Holy Empire would attack them after it realized its mistake, so it would be better to get those wider lands as soon as possible.
That way they wouldn't have to worry about being driven away again, and even if half of the places were defeated, they could continue to recuperate.
But what the prince said just now is correct. If they really continue to attack, they will die miserably and their entire empire will become a living hell. This is really bad!
"Okay, I got it!"
"Actually, I just thought about it carefully, and what you said is correct."
"We can't accumulate more hatred. We should become more peaceful and not be as reckless as before. This will only make others hate us more."
"Yes!" Zhu Aide finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Knight Commander could understand the meaning of these words, this matter would be easily resolved, and their Wolf Fang Empire would be able to continue to be despicable.
"Do you think the Holy Empire has noticed us? Will they send troops against us?"
"Impossible! The Queen doesn't have that much free time. She's managing so many city-states now, and she's so busy every day. And yet she's still thinking about attacking us. Even a messenger from the gods wouldn't have that much free time!"
"Don't worry, this matter is really not that bad."
…
Eastern Continent, the Han Empire.
The Han Emperor had always been concerned about the consequences of their conquest. After such a long time, nearly half of China had been destroyed by them. It can be said that the Han Empire was very fast and powerful.
There was no way. The more they fought, the stronger they became. Moreover, many vassal states had already been frightened. Many monarchs of the vassal states either chose to surrender or their subordinates rebelled and surrendered.
That is why the Han Empire was able to destroy the vassal states so quickly.
Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City.
Inside the Dragon Palace, the Han Emperor, dressed in a red dragon robe, looked coldly at his eunuchs and asked, "How's the situation at the front?"
"Your Majesty, the Han Empire has been destroyed. All the vassal states except the three southwestern states must either surrender or be destroyed by us."
"Now, the cities of these vassal states have been redivided by us and turned into counties!"
"Alright! What the Qin Dynasty was able to do, the Han Dynasty can also do. However, these three southwestern kingdoms are a tough nut to crack."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will send a million strong troops to attack the three southwestern kingdoms. They won't be able to hold out for long!"
"That'll do."
The million-strong army mentioned by the eunuch was actually not that many people, it was just an exaggeration, but in comparison, the troops on the court's side were definitely more than twice as many as those of the three southwestern kingdoms.
Moreover, they still have an endless supply of troops, but the aid comes from the three southwestern countries. Once the troops are gone, they are gone!
Da Zhou was the most important barrier for the three southwestern kingdoms facing the imperial court, so they directly placed the battlefield to the east of Da Zhou, a place called Lingguan.
This pass is the only pass for the imperial army to enter the Great Zhou and attack their Great Zhou. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, which can be said to be extremely difficult.
Shangguan Yan's men have also deployed a large number of troops at this Lingguan Pass to stop the enemy.
Great Zhou, the capital city.
Now, the court is in chaos from top to bottom. Not only that, in the court, there are still many ministers arguing with each other. Until now, they are still unwilling to reach a consensus.
Above the main hall.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. Look at those vassal states. Most of them have been destroyed, and only a small number survived. Why? Because they chose to surrender and did not fight against the court."
"Why we have to fight is a foregone conclusion. Even if we persist, we can't change the outcome. We might as well surrender in exchange for a chance to survive."
"Your Majesty! When the Qin Emperor was in power, our vassal states were supposed to have ceased to exist. Later, the Qin State was destroyed due to an accident. The Han Empire replaced it and restored it. After all, they had the support of the vassal states at that time."
"But this is a foregone conclusion. It's useless for us to resist, Your Majesty!"
Prime Minister Wang An was also very angry when he heard the words of these ministers. He scolded them: "If the people knew that you had conquered the enemy without fighting, wouldn't they laugh at you?"
"Even if I die, I will kneel down and have integrity and backbone!"
"In the past, our Great Zhou was the most powerful among the vassal states."
"The Prime Minister is no longer the same as before, so we must consider following the will of Heaven. The Han Empire is the power of Heaven and the will of Heaven!"
"There's nothing wrong with surrendering. After all, we are the only two remaining vassal states. Why are you still holding on?"
Watching them arguing in the court, one side thought they should surrender, the other side thought they should not surrender and should be attacked, and things became very bad.
Liang Jing, you have been watching coldly. In fact, she had some hesitations in her heart, but she thought that it is better to die in glory than to live in disgrace. Even if they finally accepted it, even if this result was certain, at least they had fought for their lives.
But if they don't even fight, even if they have the opportunity to restore their country in the end, no people will be willing to stand up. After all, there is no need for the people to remember such a dynasty.
So, at this moment, Liang Jing waved his hand, stood up and shouted in a domineering manner.
"Look at you all!"
"I have decided. We must fight. Even if the imperial army is powerful, so what?"
"Just now, nearly three floors of people wanted to surrender, right? Someone, tell them to drag them away and behead them in public!"
When these words came out, the ministers who had supported surrender were all terrified. They could never have imagined that His Majesty could be so cruel!
