Chapter 281 Ji Dong: Yan'er, you hurt my heart so much!
Another year has passed.
This year, the alliance did not continue to expand, but steadily managed the territory it occupied.
The withdrawal of the Wu clan and the original artisan system of the Mohists was a devastating blow to the alliance's industry, but in fact it would not have much impact on the alliance in a short period of time, because industry has never been the mainstay of the alliance, at least not in the past ten years.
The State of Yan had been completely annexed in a relatively peaceful manner, but its fate was similar to that of the lost territories of Qi, and they all became vassals of the alliance. The nobles who chose to surrender, after enjoying a period of rapid decline in wealth and glory, became almost as low-ranking as ordinary people.
Unfortunately, the alliance was not stable.
The State of Yan was adjacent to the State of Li, and the State of Qi was adjacent to the State of Chu and the Pseudo-Qi.
The former nobles were unwilling to lose their status and were still living a bad life, so they were instigated to rebel by the State of Li on a large scale.
The people of the old Qi territory were constantly influenced by the Tian Wenjing regime and were also infiltrated by the propaganda of the Chu State. After a series of open and covert struggles, a large number of people left.
The Alliance did become the owner of the land, but Li Chu also gained a large population, and they could afford to support so many people.
So this year.
Ji Dong tasted the pain that the Wei and Han families suffered in the past.
This situation of being bloodsucked cannot last too long, so Ji Dong's recruitment process has been accelerating. Not only are 90,000 children forcibly arranged into Mingdu, but veterans who have been in the army for many years must also be guaranteed a large amount of time to train and transform in Mingdu.
The feeling of being deprived of emotions and desires caused waves of panic in the army.
They naturally didn't want to go on, but before entering Mingdu, they were already in a state of semi-control by Ji Dong.
But there is no wall in the world that is completely airtight.
The news still got out, and an extremely turbulent undercurrent quietly spread among the people.
This 90-year-old child was originally coaxed and deceived by Ji Dong into entering Mingdu. He only knew that the child could become part of the invincible Black Armor Legion, but he was not aware of the inside story.
Good job!
Feelings and desires are taken away.
Even if I become successful in the future, what good will it do me?
It’s better for children to join the army, and the court will take care of their retirement?
Panic spread quickly.
but……
“It shouldn’t be that fast!”
Ji Su was not that worried: "We have very strict control over the people. Even if those people spread the news by word of mouth, it is impossible for it to spread to the entire alliance!"
Ji Dong's face was solemn: "Have you forgotten the mass migration of people from Wei and Han?"
Ji Su: “…”
He looked a little embarrassed.
Then I started to get anxious.
Although the truth behind the mass migration has not been fully exposed, they speculate that Ying Wuji is likely to have mastered a large-scale communication technique.
If this is true, then the public grievances in the alliance that have not yet erupted are simply a cockroach nest on a wooden wall. Unless the wall is knocked down, no one will know how many cockroaches are hiding there.
Ji Su's scalp felt a little numb.
Ji Dong waved his hand and smiled, "Don't worry, this kind of panic can be solved with just a big victory!"
Having lived for hundreds of years, he knows these people too well.
As long as we can win the battle and give them some benefits, all crises and hidden dangers can be suppressed. When the world is unified, how much trouble can these little people cause?
Give him a generation of time and he will surely become a saint.
Ji Su smiled and waved his hands: "I'm not panicking, I'm just worried that I won't be able to see Da Yan dominate the Central Plains in my lifetime. If my estimate is correct, I should still have another 20 years to live."
In fact, he really has confidence in Ji Dong.
After all, he was well aware of the Black Armor Legion's combat effectiveness. Even though they were facing the Li Kingdom's cannons and Soldier Realm archers, it was still difficult for them to break into the city.
But how many archers can be trained in the Soldier Realm?
As long as a generation passes, the Black Armored Legion will be overwhelming, and even if the Kingdom of Li is an iron wall, the only way out is collapse.
He was also not worried that Ji Dong would betray the Yan royal family.
Because Ji Dong had no children, his only wife, Nangong Yan, completely lost her fertility due to the evil magic that restored her to the body of the earth.
Now his son, the ten-year-old Prince of Yan State, is Ji Dong's only disciple and has been receiving Ji Dong's instruction since childhood.
As long as Jidong is unified.
My son will surely become a king who is as good as the Zhou emperor!
No!
Stronger than the Emperor of Zhou!
Ji Dong laughed and said, "Ying Wuque next door is almost buried, but he is not as anxious as you!"
Ji Su choked and said with some emotion: "Ignorance is really a kind of happiness. It is also a kind of luck to die inexplicably in the midst of ambition."
Be reasonable.
After the last Jiuzhou Festival, Ji Dong wrote countless handwritten letters to curse Ying Wuque.
Then Ying Wuque matured.
In recent years.
Always keeping a low profile.
But how can this be called keeping a low profile?
This is clearly just wasting your life!
I really can't complain!
"Hahaha!"
Ji Dong stroked his beard and laughed: "Ying Wuque is not in a hurry, so we don't need to be in a hurry either! As long as Ying Wuque dies, the royal family of Gansu will be in chaos. I have secretly contacted the team that Ying Yue left for him, and several important figures have been turned by me.
Now, with their secret help, Ying Li has become famous among the Ying clan members.
After Ying Wuque dies, they will support Ying Li as the King at my command!
By then, as long as we eliminate some of the stubborn Gan Ting, as well as Gongsun Di and Bai Jie, it will only be a matter of time before Gan Kingdom joins the alliance!"
Hearing this.
Ji Su's eyes suddenly lit up: "This is a brilliant plan. The Marquis really has many brilliant ideas! Now there are three factions in the Gan court, the Gongsun family, the Bai family and the royal family. The royal family has fallen into your trap. Gongsun Di is loyal to the Gan Kingdom and has always been at odds with Ying Wuque. As long as you kill a few people from the Bai family, why worry that the Gan Kingdom will not surrender?"
