Chapter 29: 29
East of the Great Yanhuang Continent, consisted of the five great regions.
Dazhou, Datang, Dayi, Dalian, and Dajin was a land ruled by ordinary humans, not Martial Artists. Dayi has the smallest land, overlapping land and sea islands. It is a country of prosperous economic trade. However, recently, the city of Dongzhou, ruled by the Third Prince, developed so rapidly that the trade even surpassed Nanyi, the capital city of Dayi.
Dazhou, full of scholars and poetry, was the birthplace of the great master Kong. Dalian land is dry and mostly desert. Called by neighbors as a barbarian ruled by a tribal system
Dajin is in the north end, and the nation is in decline. However, Dajin's emperor has descended from the great human imperial dynasty thousands of years ago. There were still some foundations to support, so the poor Dajin could still stand.
Suppose to mention a prosperous region in all dimensions, The bravest military force. It is the pride of humanity that is the Datang region. The mighty horse army of Datang Wipes out the enemy army until the neighbors fear Datang, having a border with the Demon Realm, was a critical front line for humans against demons from invading.
It was a geographic misfortune, and Datang was too prominent. Causing this incredible region to be besieged by four other neighbors throughout the international border, they will station the troops of each region to prevent the Datang invasion. The expansion of the Da Tang territory was difficult. No matter how brave the city was, the city could not resist being hit by an outnumbering. In the past, Datang took the initiative to change the national policy. Turned to focus on international relations
Datang, the capital of Zhang Aun, In the prestigious Datang region's calligraphy room Head of state and sovereignty Emperor of Datang
Li Lianzhong, this emperor, has been reigning for more than 30 years. Able to rise to the top ten most reigning emperors in honor
Li Lianzhong was a 50-year-old man. He looked at the map of the Great Yan Huang Continent. Li Lianzhong made great efforts to expand Da Tang's territory to rule the Great Yanuang Continent's east.
However, for over 30 years of his reign, Da Tang didn't have an inch of territory added. The other four regions tried to boycott Datang. Create an alliance of four nations against the expansion of Datang's territory.
Li Lianzhong was extremely disappointed with himself. Outwardly, people would say that he was one of the great emperors in history. However, Li Lian Zhong knew that he could hardly change Da Tang.
So, 20 years later, Ta Tang tried to reduce military aggression. Promote international trade Exchange art and culture between regions Taking diplomatic missions incredibly In the hope of improving relations between countries that have been bleak back to normal position again.
Everything is going well except for diplomatic relations. The other four regions did not let go of Da Tang. They felt that the weak Datang was the best Da Tang. Because in history, it all shows that when Datang was prosperous, he would always invade other regions.
At that moment, a eunuch came to report.
"The emperor, the Venerable, would like to meet ."
Li Lianzong was slightly surprised. The ambassador just met this morning at a meeting. Showing that something significant must happen
"Hurry and invite the Supreme Venerable," Li Lianzhong instructed.
Not long after, the Venerable of Datang came to the writing room. This Venerable was named Cheng Li.
"Venerable, what happened to you now to meet with me?"
Li Lianzhong asked.
"Your Majesty, when the ambassador comes from the Dazhou region. Right now, they are all in the ceremonial ministry," Cheng Li replied.
"The Great Da Zhou guys have made ambassadors? What are they coming up with? "
Li Lianzhong asked.
Because usually, the Allies of the Four Nations is challenging to send ambassadors to visit the capital. They are more often petitions against border military activities.
"Your Majesty, this diplomatic mission is extraordinary. They are not from the capital. However, they represent the second prince, and this person is called Pan Zhou. "
Cheng Li explained.
"Huh, is it, Pan Zhou, himself?" Li Lianzhong said in a slightly surprised tone because of the name of Pan Zhou. He is very familiar.
Li Lianzhong was aware of Dazhou's civil war. At this time, the representative of the Second Prince sent an ambassador to meet him. It shows that the situation within Dazhou was agitated and began to seek foreign intervention.
Li Lianzhong felt the urge to stretch out his extended hand and stir up the water in Dazhou. The more chaotic the neighboring countries are, the better. The more you break, the more he likes it.
Li Lianzhong felt that Da Tang had nothing to do. Interfering with neighbors was also a free time Li Lianzong had to do by himself.
"This Pan Zhou is an aristocrat from a famous intellectual family. Probably not easy to cope with. What demands do they have? "
Li Lianzhong made a forecast of the needs of the other party. Da Tang could not give him a helping hand without charge. If Datang had to act, there would be some rewards in his hand.
"His Majesty Pan Zhou has sent the royal message through the Ministry of Ceremonies. Moreover, this is the other party's request." Finished, Cheng Li sent the scroll to Li Lianzhong.
Li Lianzhong received the scroll of the report and opened it carefully.
"The second prince needed supplies, weapons, and upholding righteousness in his ascension. Cheng Li, what do you think? "
Li Lianzhong, who finished reading the request. He immediately asked for the opinion of the Chancellor.
"The second prince is famous Public support. It also has a background of the civil affairs lords and famous intellectuals from Shinghua City. I think the second prince is our best choice."
Cheng Li replied.
"What about the two remaining princes?" Asked Li Lianzhong.
"The first prince controls the army but has no noble support. The Third Prince, not to mention he is mingled with a foul reputation merchant, should not meddle with The frustrated emperor still on the throne and soon be overthrown. "
Cheng Li, who understood the inner situation of Great Da Zhou the most. Explained in detail to the emperor
"I am pleased to see Dazhou so confused. The current emperor heard that his frenzy killed people like a fish. Heaven has punished Dazhou, hahaha." Li Lianzhong laughed happily. Datang was already receiving too much pressure. At this time, the enemy had disappeared one more time, truly a blessing from heaven.
"Chengli, how do you think we should support the Second Prince?" Said Li Lianzhong.
"I think we should send supplies. Moreover, money is enough, And we externally declare that it supports the righteousness of the second prince, it is okay," Chengli said.
"No, I'm still not satisfied. Have you forgotten the First Prince? I should send our black-armored cavalry as well." Li Lianzhong wanted a hundred of confidence. I am therefore thinking of sending out his elite troops.
"Your Majesty, this is impossible. The black-armored cavalry is the ultimate in Datang's unit, only ten thousand. How can we export it? Moreover, it is tough for such a soldier to cross the border without being seen," Cheng Li quickly protested.
Cheng Li, you are not a soldier, so you can't think of this. I am thinking of sending three thousand black-armored cavalries to support. Border crossing is also straightforward. We rely on three regional joints between Datang. Dalian and Dazhou is the most vulnerable point.
Three thousand Black Armor cavalrymen were able to stealth in and were difficult to detect." Li Lianzhong had previously commanded an army. Would know the strategy between the provinces very well
"Of course, we won't send our soldiers out for nothing. The cost of the Black Cavalry was too high. I am thinking of negotiating a diplomatic agreement between Dazhou and us. "
Li Lianzhong proposed a plan.
Cheng Li, who was overturned in the political field, quickly understood the emperor's plans.
Datang will use black cavalry as an essential piece of the negotiation.
The second prince wanted to reign, no matter how difficult the conditions were. Let's not violate the lowest point. The Second Prince is always negotiable, and this is politics.
"Your Majesty, I understand your plan," Cheng Li said.
"Cheng Li, I leave you to negotiate as well. It is best to ask Dazhou out of the Four Nations Alliance Agreement. "
In Li Lianzhong's life, the thing that stabbed him the most was the Four Nations Alliance. If Da Zhou withdraws, Datang will breathe more easily.
"I will hurry and proceed immediately," Cheng Li said goodbye. Then head to the Ministry of Ceremonies.
At the Ministry of Ceremonies, Secret negotiations between the two regions have started. The second prince, too, lacked in resources. Upon hearing that Datang was willing to send soldiers to help, Negotiations went well.
Three days later, the negotiations were finished. Panzhou signed a secret agreement between the two regions. Discusses the Datang region's assistance, both financial and military resources, to intervene in the civil war. Uphold righteousness and accept the new emperor of the second prince Dazhou, will withdraw in the Four Nations Alliance.
Furthermore, signed an opening trade treaty between the two countries Datang and Dazhou, will sign a non-offensive pact.
Providing military assistance, allowing armies of both countries to pass through each other. In theory, the status of the two countries is closer to the "alliance". Nevertheless, in practice, Da Zhou and Da Tang had already become allies.
