Liu Mingzhi glanced at Jiang Yuanming and the others, then turned to look at the map hanging in front of him.
"My dear friends, what do you think of what Mr. Cai said just now? Do you think Mr. Cai's words are a bit alarmist?"
After hearing Liu Mingzhi's words, Rongwei Hou Cai Jun subconsciously wanted to say something, but in the end he frowned slightly and said nothing.
Jiang Yuanming thought for a while, then stood up and walked gently to the side of Young Master Liu: "Your Majesty, I agree with the old Marquis's advice."
"Oh? Lao Jiang, please tell me your opinion."
"Your Majesty, I think the old Marquis's views are extremely reasonable. Tsarist Russia is a land of tigers and wolves.
Although the current national power of Tsarist Russia cannot pose any threat to our Dalong Dynasty, its potential threat is obvious.
Your Majesty has seen with your own eyes what the troops of Tsarist Russia are like. It can be said that each of them is tall and powerful, and they are indeed opponents that cannot be underestimated.
A few years ago, in the battle between our dragon troops and the Tsarist Russian troops in Xinfu in the North, although our dragon ended in victory, this does not mean that the Tsarist Russian troops were a bunch of vulnerable rabble.
First of all, the national war between our dragon and the Russian soldiers and horses in Xinfu, Northland, happened in the cold winter.
The Tsarist Russian soldiers and horses who traveled long distances to our Dalong territory and the remnants of the Western Turks were already exhausted, and they were exhausted.
On the other hand, Dalong's soldiers and horses have always been stationed in Xinfu. We have the advantage of the right time in this battle. It can be said that we are waiting for work.
Secondly, in Xinfu, a grassland covered with heavy snow, it must be a vast expanse of white and it is difficult to discern the direction.
As long as there is no one who is familiar with the grassland environment as a guide, under such circumstances, Tsarist Russia's troops will become extremely passive after entering the grassland for the first time.
Although there were those Western Turkic soldiers and horses who had become bereaved dogs to guide him, it was impossible for the soldiers and horses of both sides to be completely united at that time.
Therefore, our Dalong soldiers and horses once again took advantage of the geographical location.
Furthermore, even if my dragon's troops and horses do not have the advantage of waiting for work due to the weather, they already have an absolute advantage in the comparison of military strength.
Moreover, at that time, our Dalong troops, without exception, were all armored elite troops, well-equipped, and supported by various heavy combat weapons such as artillery.
Then, I, the dragon, will have the advantage over Renhe again.
Under such circumstances, it is natural that the troops of Tsarist Russia are no match for our dragon. This is a completely understandable result.
The time, place, and people are all favorable, and they are all on my side. How can I, the dragon, be invincible in this battle?
However, what if the situation between the enemy and ourselves changes? Can I, the Dragon Cavalry, still be able to crush the Tsarist Russia's soldiers and horses in one go?
The simplest point is, if our Dalong, as the main attacker in the national war, loses the right time and location, and only takes the advantage of human beings, what percent chance do we have left of winning?
This was just Tsarist Russia before. What is the situation like in Tsarist Russia now? What will happen to Tsarist Russia when it grows up?
Therefore, the veteran agreed with the advice of the old marquis. The potential threat from Tsarist Russia cannot be ignored.
Your Majesty clearly understands the superficial remarks made by the veteran minister. "
Young Master Liu tapped his fingers gently on the table next to him, looking teasingly at Jiang Yuanming who had finished his talk.
"Old Jiang, Old Jiang, I find that you should be an official in the Ministry of War. In terms of your foresight, you are no less than Song Aiqing of the Ministry of War."
Jiang Yuanming glanced at Song Yu, who had a strange expression next to him, and couldn't help but look a little embarrassed. He laughed twice and waved his hands hurriedly.
"Your Majesty is joking. It's a shallow view, a shallow view."
"Old Jiang, this is not a shallow opinion, but it speaks directly to my heart.
Don't pretend to be humble, Song Aiqing is not so narrow-minded.
Then tell me again, why do you think that Tsarist Russia may become a serious problem for our dragon in the future? "
"This, if the old minister's words..."
"Husband, I have made the tea. Is it convenient to go in now?"
Liu Mingzhi heard Qi Yun's voice, leaned out and looked at Qi Yun standing outside the door and waved.
"Yun'er, come in directly."
"yes."
Jiang Yuanming and the others saw Qi Yun walking into the room with light steps, and hurriedly stood up and bowed.
"I see you, the Queen, you are a thousand years old."
"All ministers are exempt from courtesy."
"Thank you, Queen."
Qi Yun walked to the table aside and placed the two pots of hot tea in the tray on the table one by one.
"Husband, you continue to talk about business, I will take my leave first."
"Hey, thank you for your hard work, ma'am."
Qi Yun smiled softly and exited the study directly with the tray in hand.
After Qi Yun left, Liu Mingzhi happily sat on the chair next to him and pointed at the two pots of hot tea on the table.
"My dear friends, this is this year's newest tribute tea, Jinshan Yunwu. If you want to taste tea, just pour it yourself."
Song Yu and others' eyes lit up. They stared at the teapot on the table and gave Young Master Liu a fist.
"Thank you for the tea, Your Majesty. You'll be welcome."
"No need to be polite, just drink it yourself if you want."
Several people immediately poured themselves a cup of fragrant tea and held it in their hands, sniffing the fragrance of tea in the mist with intoxicated expressions.
Liu Mingzhi also smelled the aroma of the tea, then placed it on the table and waited for the tea to cool down.
"Old Jiang, go on, whatever you want to say, it doesn't matter."
"Yes, that veteran has spoken boldly. If there is anything inappropriate in my words, I hope your majesty will forgive me."
"Just say it directly. I won't argue with you no matter what you say."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Sir. Your Majesty, what I said may not be pleasant to hear, but it is a conclusion drawn based on past experience.
In the eyes of the veteran, Tsarist Russia at this time was not much different from the Jin Kingdom and the Turks in the past.
I would like to say something disrespectful, if one day our power is weakened, Tsarist Russia will most likely do the same thing as the two countries of Jin and Tu in the past, and they will also invade our territory. "
The glint in Liu Mingzhi's eyes flashed away, and he looked at Jiang Yuanming, who looked slightly nervous, with interest.
"How can I see it?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think Your Majesty will not forget the root of the reason why I, the Great Dragon, came into contact with Tsarist Russia, right?
At that time, our dragon had not yet unified the world, and the national war among the three kingdoms was in full swing. Tsarist Russia and the remnants of the Western Turks, who were comparable to lost dogs in the past, suddenly crossed the Yinshan Mountains and intervened.
And what is their purpose of crossing Yinshan Mountain? The first is to help the Western Turkic Khan Spismult regain his throne, and the second is to dig out the treasures that Spismult buried when he escaped.
The gold and silver treasures buried by Spismult were all plundered by the Western Turks from the hands of the people on my frontier when our dragon was weak!
In other words, if it were not driven by the interests of these treasures, would Tsarist Russia send troops to help Spiesmult regain the throne of Khan?
To extend it further, if our dragon was still weak at that time, would the Russian army after helping Spiesmult regain the throne of Khan, continue to move south to invade our territory?
Although the situation that Lao Chen hypothesized did not actually happen, a general conclusion can be drawn from this.
Tsarist Russia is a man of profit!
And what kind of situation will happen once the profiteers are profitable? Your Majesty doesn't need the veteran to elaborate on it, right? "
Liu Mingzhi suddenly raised his hand and slapped the table, looking at Jiang Yuanming with admiration, who seemed to have some unfinished thoughts.
"Great goodness, high theory, wonderful theory."
When Jiang Yuanming saw the smiling expression on Young Master Liu's face, he instantly understood that his words had reached His Majesty's heart, and the tension in his heart gradually eased.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliments. I am ashamed of myself."
Liu Mingzhi took some tea to moisten his throat and looked at Song Yu and the others calmly.
"The Ministry of War, King Wuyi, Wang Aiqing, and Jiang Aiqing have finished talking. What about you? Do you have any different ideas?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I second my opinion. Mr. Cai Laohou and Jiang Shangshu have said almost everything that needs to be said. I really can't think of any different opinions."
"The veteran also seconded the proposal. The two colleagues have already said the general situation. Even if the veteran puts forward any different opinions, they are just some trivial and superficial opinions."
Song Qing saw that his father and the minister of Honglu Temple, He Zheng, had spoken one after another, and he also stood up and bowed.
"Your Majesty, I remember that in previous years, I once mentioned my views on Tsarist Russia to Your Majesty.
As for today, I still don't make any changes, and my advice is still the same as before.
Therefore, I also second the advice of all seniors or senior colleagues. "
