When the news of the pacification of South Vietnam spread back to Chang'an, the entire city of Chang'an was completely boiling.
It was originally thought that the war would take a long time, but in just a few months, there has been such a big breakthrough.
This huge good news has everyone gearing up.
How big is the entire South Vietnam country?
In terms of the current land area of the Han Dynasty, the South Vietnam Kingdom alone is almost equivalent to the mainland of the Han Dynasty!
Although now, the war in Lingnan is not completely over yet.
However, this big piece of fat has made everyone impatient.
The land in Guanzhong has been divided up long ago, and the emperor has already released the news. The Han Dynasty has made marquises, and the inner marquises will never be related again.
"Okay! Okay!"
The merit of destroying the country!
Looking at the good news in his hand, Liu Qi was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth.
South Vietnam has been pacified, and the next thing will be much simpler.
Once those sporadic resistance forces are eliminated, it will naturally be possible to completely pacify Fujian, Guangdong and Dong Ou based on South Vietnam.
"Your Majesty, what can make you so happy?"
Looking at the ecstatic Liu Qi, Wang Quan asked with a smile.
"Mother, the child knows!"
Before Liu Qi could speak, Liu She, who was playing nearby, suddenly said.
"You know? Please tell me."
Liu Qi was already in a good mood. Looking at his lively and cute son, he suddenly became interested.
"South Vietnam surrendered to the Han Dynasty, right?"
Liu She tilted his head, blinked his big eyes, and asked with a smile.
"Oh my God, how did you know that?"
Although the entire Chang'an City now knows about this matter, the news within the palace has not spread yet.
Liu Qi was really curious, how did his three-year-old son know all this?
And this kid is only three years old now. Does he know what it means to surrender?
"My cousin told me last time!"
Liu She blinked his eyes and said with a laugh.
"Cousin?"
Liu Qi was stunned for a moment and didn't realize what he was talking about. Who was this guy talking about?
"Yes, my cousin said that the next time my father is happier, it will be the time for South Vietnam to surrender!"
After hearing what he said, Liu Qi immediately understood. It seemed that he was talking about Liu Deng.
"Your cousin is right, but do you know what surrender means? Do you know where South Vietnam is?"
Liu Qi suddenly became interested, smiled and hugged Liu She into his lap, and then asked.
"Of course I know. My cousin said that the South Vietnam Kingdom is south of the Five Ridges. It was originally the place of my great Han Dynasty. It was just because the great ancestor had limited energy and no time to regain the lost territory!"
Listening to Liu She's milky voice, Liu Qi couldn't help but froze for a moment.
"What else did your cousin tell you?"
"My cousin also said that a man should conquer the world with his own hands! Father, when I grow up, you can give me an army of 100,000, and I can go and expand the territory for the Han Dynasty!"
"Do you still know how to expand the territory? This is a good idea, but haven't you heard that no matter how big a country is, if it is warlike, it will perish?"
Although they were chatting between father and son, Liu Qi's expression became more and more serious.
"Your Majesty, you are tired, otherwise..."
Seeing Liu Qi's increasingly serious expression, Wang Quan quickly tried to interrupt.
"Don't say anything. I want to see what my son, Liu Qi, has learned!"
Before Wang Quan could finish her words, Liu Qi had stopped her directly.
"I think something is wrong!"
Although Liu Qi's attitude became obviously serious, Liu She still showed no fear.
"Since you think something is wrong, tell me what's wrong?"
Liu Qi asked with a frown.
"Father, you are too absolute when you say that even if a country is big, it will perish if it is willing to fight. What if during the war, not only do we not lose money, but we can also make money? What if after the war, the soldiers do not have much Where are the casualties? If we continue to fight like this, will the country still be destroyed?"
"But wars cost money, so how can we make money? Even in this great victory at Yinshan, although our Han Dynasty won, the number of casualties exceeded 100,000!"
Unknowingly, when Liu Qi spoke, he had unconsciously regarded Liu She as an adult.
"But father, when my cousin fought before, he made money! Moreover, I think my cousin is right. When fighting, you don't have to fight with them face to face! We can attack them before they attack. When the time comes, shoot them all to death!”
Although Liu She's words were still very childish, they caused huge waves in Liu Qi's heart.
This is not something a three-year-old child could say!
Thinking back to when I was eight years old, I probably wouldn’t have been able to say such a thing!
Moreover, why did Liu Deng say such things to Liu She?
Or, this already represents Liu Deng’s own attitude...
"It's easy for you to say it, but those people are not fools. Is it possible that they can stand still and wait for you to shoot them to death?"
There were big loopholes in Liu She's words, so Liu Qi smiled and asked again.
"What if we shoot faster and farther? Like this crossbow of mine!"
While Liu She was speaking, he broke away from Liu Qi's arms and went directly under Wang Quan's bed.
Before Wang Quan realized what was going on, Liu She had already walked out holding an exquisite small crossbow.
"Your Majesty, I really don't know what's under this bed..."
After seeing clearly what Liu She was holding, Wang Quan knelt directly on the ground.
"This is what I hid underneath, it's none of my mother's business!"
Although Liu She didn't know what happened, he quickly knelt down beside his mother.
"You get up first, where did this thing come from?"
Taking the exquisitely shaped small crossbow from him, Liu Qi frowned and asked.
"This is a gift from my cousin. I promised him that I would never shoot anyone with this little crossbow, so he gave it to me!"
Liu She tilted his head and said carefully.
"Don't worry, tell me, father, do you know how to use this thing?"
After feeling the strength of this thing, Liu Qi immediately felt relieved. This thing was just a child's toy.
The shooting range is no more than ten steps at most, and the arrows used are all made of cork.
Even if it is shot on a person, it will only cause some pain at most. Unless it hits the eyes, it is almost impossible to break the skin.
It's just a small thing, but the design of this thing is very clever.
Not only does it come with a matching cocking device, but the included arrow clip can hold up to twelve crossbow arrows!
