"Your Majesty is located in a place where there are four battles. Now with your bravery and aloofness, you can be safe. Once the military strength weakens in the future, how can you withstand the intrusions from all directions?"
"The Western Region Protectorate does not have enough military support at all. The only one we can really rely on is ourselves."
Wang Shu said unceremoniously.
Ran Liang was silent when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, if you really want to plan for future generations, you should take advantage of the current situation of strong soldiers and horses to build a strong country first!"
When Ran Liang heard this, he immediately became energetic.
Wang Shu, a relative of the emperor, is definitely not just a flamboyant family member. Now that he has made it so clear, he must have extraordinary knowledge.
"Sir, please teach me what to do." Ran Liang asked eagerly.
"Your Majesty, although Kangju has a vast territory, it has too many barren deserts and does not have the capital of a country of ten thousand chariots. If your Majesty wants to go on an expedition without a solid backing, it will definitely not work."
"What does solid backing mean?"
"Your Majesty, it means that Kang Juguo is not a place for long-term operations. It can be used for recuperation and training of soldiers and horses, but it is absolutely hopeless to rely on Kangju's national strength to support it. After all, hundreds of years ago, Kangjuguo also affirmed There have been heroes, but they have always been trapped under Wusun Guishang and other countries."
"What do you mean, sir?"
"What I mean is that the king must find a new place to establish his country and live in it. Kangju is the place where the four battles took place. Even if it is managed properly, it will be difficult to make a difference."
"Sir, there seems to be something wrong with what you said. Your Majesty named me King Kangju just to stick to this place and become a barrier for the Han Dynasty. If I leave easily, wouldn't it be against His Majesty's will?"
Wang Shu smiled when he heard this and said very nonchalantly.
"The sky is high and the sea is vast, how can a man be trapped in such a barren desert?"
"Barren desert?" Ran Liang couldn't help but disagree.
Wang Shu's meaning is obvious. Kangju country is poor and has nothing valuable, so it is naturally the best choice. If the land of Kangju can be made rich, it can become a wealthy town. Wouldn't it be easier to make money by buying grain, salt, cloth and other items locally?
"Your Majesty, I understand your thoughts very well, but it is an indisputable fact that the land in Kangju State is barren, and the population of Kangju State is very small. There are only more than ten officials in the country, and there is not even a penny in the treasury. Even if you ask them to donate all their hard-earned savings, the situation will not be improved. If the king can send some skilled craftsmen to nearby villages to purchase a batch of grain, cloth, etc., these things will be It can benefit the citizens, reduce their taxes, increase domestic agricultural income, and bring the national economic development to a higher level. This is the most important thing! "
Ran Liang couldn't help but think deeply after Wang Shu's words.
He didn't know what Wang Shu was thinking, but what he said made sense. If he wanted to develop Kang Juguo's economy, he must first have enough food.
If there is not enough food to support Kang Juguo's consumption, then this desolate land will be of no use.
"If the king doesn't believe it, you can send someone to inquire and see if there are a large number of grain and grass caravans around. If there are, they can definitely meet the king's needs!" Wang Shu said.
Ran Liang nodded.
"Sir, you are right, I should indeed send a mission to the surrounding area to explore the information!"
Ran Liang slapped the table.
"But your husband is right. Now I really need a lot of food to support the country's operation. Therefore, I still need some help from your husband."
When Wang Shu heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I wonder what your Majesty wants his ministers to do for you?"
"Sister's wisdom makes Gu admire him. I want to ask for a treasure from sir. If sir can give it to me, I will never treat him badly and will definitely give him a generous reward!"
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. I am just sharing your worries for Your Majesty!" Wang Shu said modestly.
"Sir's ability makes me feel in awe."
"Your Majesty, I dare not take it seriously!" Wang Shu shook his head and said.
"I wonder if sir, can you help me solve my doubts?" Ran Liang asked.
"Your Majesty, you should actually know how I entered the palace, right?"
"I know." Ran Liang nodded and said.
"Your Majesty, you should know why I appear next to you this time, right?"
Ran Liang nodded.
"His Majesty asked you to come here?"
"That's right!" Wang Shu nodded and continued: "Actually, Your Majesty, you don't know that His Majesty has already been eyeing this territory for a long time and wants to establish his own power on this territory. This is why I have always been The reason why I follow you, not His Majesty, but by your side, if I follow Your Majesty, I will definitely not enter the king's palace! "
What Wang Shu said was impeccable. After hearing this, Ran Liang also sighed secretly. This small Kangju country was actually hiding dragons and crouching tigers. If he couldn't seize the time, he might not be as good as that small catastrophe.
"Your Majesty, can we talk about business now?" Wang Shu asked with a slight smile.
"Of course! Please speak, sir!"
"First of all, Your Majesty, we need to find a new stationed place in the area surrounding Kangju State, and then open up new territory. It is best for us to have a stable political power, so that we can effectively control the surrounding land, so that we can There are ways to get more food from outside."
Wang Shu looked like he knew how to run a country.
Ran Liang was startled, but he still nodded and said: "Sir, I know what you said, but I don't have many talents at the moment. Moreover, I, the king, only have one army from the Qin Dynasty, and other countries don't have many. Talent, I wonder if you have any clever ideas sir?"
"Your Majesty, the Great Qin Dynasty is a behemoth. Other countries, even the vassals of the Great Qin Dynasty, are the same. They have no ability to compete with the Great Qin. Therefore, they want to build a new rule within the Kingdom of Kangju. Hierarchy, that's a very easy thing. As for how many talents you need, my king, it's actually very simple. I can recommend a few talents to serve as princes under you, so that you have more people under your command, and you can be better. to rule this kingdom!"
"Who are you talking about, sir?" Ran Liang asked.
Wang Shu thought for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, do you remember that in Kangju Kingdom, there once appeared a prince named 'King Kunmi'?"
"Remember!" Ran Liang nodded, "My lord, I only ascended the throne after him. He was the only royal family in Kangju and the best prince at that time. Later, he led the Kangju Kingdom to develop and expand, and occupied the country in one fell swoop. He conquered the entire Kangju and built a city named Kangju, which is one of the largest cities in Kangju! "
"Then the king should also know that King Kunmi, the son of King Kunmi, was killed three years ago, and now, the throne of Kangju Kingdom has been vacant and has not been passed down, right?"
"That's right!" Ran Liang nodded, "To be honest, sir, in the past three years, the king has been working hard for King Kunmi's last wish, but he has always failed. This makes the king very depressed. Very!"
Wang Shu laughed and said: "Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, King Kunmi had an affair with the princess of Kangju State, and then the princess became pregnant. King Kunmi killed the princess in anger. , and then abandoned the child at the gate of the palace, and the princess was the guard of the palace. Later, the princess's child was born. This child is our Chinese people of Great Qin, and the current monarch of the Great Qin Dynasty. Zhao Huan!"
"What? Zhao Huan?"
"Yes, the Zhao Huan I just mentioned is the current monarch of Great Qin!"
"Sir, what you just said is really unbelievable."
Wang Shu said seriously: "Your Majesty, I came to the Kangju Kingdom this time. In addition to helping you regain the Kangju Kingdom, I also want to help myself, because I want to become the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. , become the monarch of this Great Qin!"
"Sir, what do you mean by this?" Ran Liang said in surprise, "You are the royal family of Da Qin, why do you still have ambitions?"
"My king, you don't know something. In my eyes, you are the king! You sincerely want to help Kang Juguo and hope that Kangjuguo can develop better, and I want to become the emperor of Great Qin. In this case , I am not only helping the king to regain Kang Juguo, but also to gain more benefits for myself, right?" Wang Shu said.
Ran Liang's brows couldn't help but frown more tightly, and he said unhappily: "Sir, although you are a royal relative of the Han Dynasty, this matter is related to the future of our Kangju country, so please be careful what you say!"
Wang Shu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, our Kang Ju Kingdom is now being invaded by Danandou. Does Danandou want to completely wipe out Kang Ju Kingdom?"
"That's right!" Ran Liang nodded and said, "The big man wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife!"
"Yes, that's what the Han people think, and you, Your Majesty, are exactly what they want to take advantage of. However, there is an old saying in China that no matter how powerful the enemy is, we must fight to the end. Therefore, Your Majesty, you cannot Back off!"
"Sir!" Ran Liang said in a deep voice, "I understand what you mean, but you can't regard the big man as your enemy because of this. After all, the big man is the big man's neighbor!"
"Your Majesty, I don't want to regard the Han Dynasty as an enemy, but the Han Dynasty is now eyeing our Kingdom of Kangju. If the Han Dynasty takes the opportunity to attack our Kangju Kingdom again, then, do you think you can still hold on to the end?"
Ran Liang was silent.
Wang Shu continued: "I think we can completely use big men to attack Danan Kabuto, and you just need to reap the benefits!"
"this......"
"Your Majesty, we can unite the Han Dynasty to deal with Danandou. I think this is a good idea, and I believe that the emperor of the Han Dynasty will not refuse your proposal, because once he agrees to your request, his Han Dynasty will lose If everything is lost, his throne will be lost, and his big man will become a chess piece in your hands, so he will definitely agree! "
"Your Majesty, we can establish a puppet dynasty in Kangju State. In this case, your Majesty can control the people of Kangju through the puppet dynasty, and the king of that puppet dynasty can use the Han as a chess piece. In this way, I think we The Kangju Kingdom can be saved!"
Ran Liang fell into deep thought, and he had to admit that this was a very good strategy.
And Wang Shu also saw that Ran Liang was a greedy person, so this plan was Ran Liang's best choice, and Ran Liang would definitely choose to accept it. This is the characteristic of their Chinese people.
"Sir, I understand!" After a while, Ran Liang nodded and said.
"In this case, we have decided. Your Majesty, please take action as soon as possible and send troops to Dahan as soon as possible!"
"Okay! I will arrange the troops to go to Dahan!" Ran Liang said, "But, sir, why don't you go directly to see His Majesty, instead of going to me to discuss it?"
"Your Majesty? Haha, Your Majesty, he has been missing for a long time. Now, the Han army has occupied the territory in the south for a long time!" Wang Shu smiled contemptuously and said, "So, I think your Majesty is in a very difficult situation now. It's dangerous. He has been targeted by the Han people. If we rush to send troops out now, I'm afraid we will fall into the Han's tricks. The Han people will definitely use His Majesty to blackmail us! "
"I have already experienced the insidiousness and cunning of big men. This time they did have such an attempt. Sir, do you mean to say that His Majesty may have been killed?" Ran Liang said.
"I don't know, but I can guarantee that your Majesty, something unexpected has happened!" Wang Shu said, "Your Majesty, please don't make any noise about this matter, otherwise, it may cause chaos!"
"This is natural, natural!"
"In that case, I'll take my leave, Your Majesty, and wish you a safe journey!" Wang Shu said with cupped hands.
"Okay, sir, walk slowly!" Ran Liang said.
...
Wang Shu left the residence of the Han Dynasty Mission and returned to the hotel.
Wang Shu's figure disappeared on the street, and Ran Liang's figure was also revealed.
"Wang Shu, you are really amazing!"
Ran Liang's eyebrows twitched slightly. He never thought that Wang Shu had such high intelligence and could guess his thoughts. It seemed that this person was indeed not simple.
Moreover, some strange thoughts always seem to come up in his head. This kind of person should not be underestimated no matter where he is.
"Brother, what should we do next?"
One of his men asked, his face looked very excited. After all, Wang Shu had brought them great good news.
"We will go to Kangju State first, and then we will send troops to Danandou. By then, even if the big men want to stop us, they will have to think carefully, right?"
"
