The whole country was shocked.
Tsarist Russia's initiative to declare war seemed to happen suddenly and caught people off guard.
But it seems that everything is actually so logical. A superpower like Tsarist Russia, which is in a period of development opportunities, absolutely does not want to see a country as powerful as Long Yan sleeping soundly next to it.
before.
There are also the powerful Huns and the powerful Prairie Royal Court, which serve as a buffer zone between Tsarist Russia and Long Yan. However, as the Xiongnu were beaten by Liu Zheng and were no longer able to fight, Tiemucheng on the grassland had become Liu Zheng's "partner". After he returned to the grassland, he stopped eroding the Central Plains. We honestly accept assistance and technical support from Liangzhou.
The Prairie Royal Court naturally became a vassal state of the Longyan Dynasty.
Coupled with Liu Zheng's continuous expansion of the Western Region into the northwest, there was no buffer zone between Long Yan and Tsarist Russia. As both countries develop independently and become more powerful, conflict seems inevitable.
And Liu Zheng's Liaodong plan brought everything forward.
The Khabarovsk region, Sakhalin Island, and the Ussuri River, these originally unclaimed lands, could buffer conflicts between the two countries before. But Liu Zheng still snatched it over and began to include it in Long Yan's territory.
This time, naturally I gave up.
How could Tsarist Russia tolerate this?
What was Peter the Great's temper? How can you just watch you, Long Yanren, invade your own land step by step?
beat!
For a while.
An army of 500,000 people surged forward.
All the people at the scene were angry.
"That's unreasonable!"
"That's unreasonable!"
"These idiots are so unreasonable!"
"Hit! Your Majesty..."
A group of vassal kings, civil and military officials also began to be filled with righteous indignation at this time, but they did not blame Liu Zheng for angering Tsarist Russia. The people of Longyan are like this. Firstly, they value the ancestral temple and the country the most. Secondly, they value the feelings of their family and country the most. At this time, all these places belong to Longyan, why should they be given to you?
Not even an inch of our country can be given away!
"Your Majesty, I, Pingzhou, are willing to send out a hundred thousand troops to fight against Maozi!"
"Your Majesty, I am Jizhou..."
"Your Majesty, I am Liangzhou..."
One by one, the vassal kings stood up.
This time.
King Zhao Xie Sheng was dumbfounded.
I go?
Tsarist Russia? Isn't it right above his head... Well, there is at most a grassland in the middle, but it is indeed not far apart. According to this distance, I am the closest big state to this battlefield...
Numb.
Xie Sheng felt numb at that time.
His Youzhou Assault Cavalry has already begun to dispatch troops and generals, planning to plot the Central Plains... His generals, soldiers and horses are already ready to move... At this time, you tell me that Tsarist Russia is coming?
Isn't this a joke?
Xie Tianyao, seeing the reactions of these vassal kings, nodded with pleasure.
Opening up territory and expanding territory has been Long Yan's dream for all emperors since ancient times. He was lucky. In his later years, Long Yan gave birth to Liu Zheng, who was able to open up territory and expand territory, which was a great achievement. At this time, Longyan's territory has reached the largest stage in history. Longyan people have never given up an inch of territory!
How could he let it go!
"beat!"
"kill!"
Every vassal king is like this.
Xie Tianyao's eyes slowly came to Zhao Wang Xie Sheng's face.
Others also looked at it.
Xie Sheng wanted to die... His troops were planning to come to the Central Plains to fight for power! But now...
For a while...
He looked at his companions.
Jizhou's...
Then Pingzhou, and then...
None of these feudal kings looked at him.
this……
Xie Sheng panicked.
What about his camp? What about the old nobles?
Did we agree to do it together?
Was it dismantled so quickly?
Liu Zheng also looked slowly.
In fact, Tsarist Russia suddenly declared war, which he did not expect. It was indeed a bit sudden and unexpected... But at this time, it seemed that this was not entirely a bad thing. At least it wouldn't be that difficult for Xie Sheng, King of Zhao in Youzhou, to get something done.
The current situation is indeed a bit delicate.
Also very funny.
On one side is the fight for the right to inherit the throne, and on the other is the war between family and country.
Suddenly, the complicated situation of Long Yan seemed to begin to become clearer. Liu Zheng suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his previous analysis of Long Yan's situation. Previously, he believed that the difference between the pros and cons between the feudal system and the county and county system was that the feudal system could easily collapse when facing foreign enemies, while the county and county system was more united in this aspect. But at this time, it seems that the historical environment is different, and the changes that have occurred are still different.
Longyan's traditional culture destined these vassal kings to be oriented toward the royal family.
Respecting the emperor, the ancestral temple and the country are the first thoughts.
In this case, it is actually completely avoidable that when foreign enemies invade, these vassal kings will lead the enemies to attack the royal family...
at this time.
This is the unity shown by these people.
"Your Majesty, we must keep them at bay because of their wild ambitions! Sichuan and Sichuan are willing to donate millions of stones of food and grass!"
"The Jingchu Navy is also willing to fight!"
One by one, the vassal kings stood up.
In an instant.
The whole atmosphere became intense.
Everyone yelled.
Everyone was in high spirits.
This kind of atmosphere is indeed a bit inconsistent when it appears at the prince's funeral.
but.
This is Long Yanren.
Even the feudal kings who were farthest from the battlefield stood up one by one.
Thank you for your help.
Completely numb.
Xie Tianyao's eyes have become colder and colder.
"King Zhao, what does this mean..."
Xie Tianyao's sinister voice had already sounded.
Others also began to react, yes...Youzhou is the closest to the battlefield, but now King Zhao has not said a word. The other vassal kings all expressed their opinions...
all of a sudden.
Everyone's expressions changed.
Could it be...
What kind of disobedience does this King Zhao have?
Zhu Zhenye said gloomily: "How many troops does King Zhao plan to send?"
At this juncture, the scholar-bureaucrats naturally wanted to fight the enemy wholeheartedly.
King Zhao Xie Sheng's forehead was instantly covered with beads of sweat.
what to do?
His great ambition is about to be realized... As long as he arrives at Lishan tomorrow, the prince is buried, and Xie Tianyao announces his successor, his troops can set off... Xie Tianyao, there are only a few days left, but he is here. Within a few days... something like this happened.
Brush brush brush.
There were already guards, who picked up their weapons and started to face Xie Sheng.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, me, me, me, I was just scheming in my heart, scheming in my heart..."
Xie Sheng didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he quickly leaned down.
Xie Tianyao looked at him quietly.
Xie Sheng's whole body began to tremble, and he grabbed the ground with both hands: "Youzhou's sudden cavalry of 300,000, the whole army is out!"
The whole army is out!
When he said this, Xie Sheng felt that his heart had died.
