Chapter 1005
Moreover, the Four Kingdoms Military Competition was also proposed by King Ning, which was obviously waiting for the Northern Wei Dynasty to join.
Xiao Lintian nodded slightly. He had already seen that Prince Ning was very ambitious.
The civil strife in Dong Qi is only temporary. King Ning just wants to use the power of the outside world to unify Dong Qi, but he doesn't want outsiders to put their hands into Dong Qi, so he is still waiting and watching.
On the Western Qin side, his emperor was more wary of the Northern Wei and South Vietnam. The Eastern Qi side also wanted a share of the pie, so Emperor Wu'an was not very concerned about the marriage.
Emperor Wu'an was very concerned about this military competition. He privately summoned several princes and ordered them to win the championship no matter what they thought of.
"The civil strife in Eastern Qi is a good thing for us. The harder they fight, the more national power they consume, and they lose the strength to fight against Western Qin!"
"So, not only do you want to win the game this time, but you also want to find ways to destroy the alliance between Dong Qi and the other two countries!"
In front of his sons, Emperor Wu An made no secret of his ambition and determination to expand his territory.
"I will let Dong Qi fight on its own for one year. After one year, we will send troops to capture Dong Qi... I will bring all four countries into the territory of Western Qin in my lifetime..."
Emperor Wu'an's ambition made King Kang and King Wei excited, and Xiao Lintian reluctantly agreed.
The dream of unifying the four kingdoms is indeed grand, but Emperor Wu'an forgot that many people in Western Qin still lacked food and clothing.
When the war broke out, they became homeless.
Now that the treasury is empty, Emperor Wu'an wants to raise military wages for the war within a year. Doesn't this mean that the people will have no way to survive?
Xiao Lintian is now in charge of the Ministry of Industry and has a better understanding of Western Qin's financial resources than before.
Why did the four countries call a truce? Isn't it because everyone couldn't bear it?
But the truce had only been over for more than a year, and Emperor Wu'an's ambitions were ready to take off. Then King Ning, King of Northern Wei and Emperor Wu'an also had the same idea. Don't they all consider the life and death of the people?
How many people's blood will be used to write the majestic blueprint for the reunification of the four countries with one general's achievements!
Xiao Lintian was depressed for two days because of this incident.
Mr. Jin Da understands Xiao Lintian's concern for the country and the people, but he doesn't know how to persuade him.
He told Ling Yu, and Ling Yu also sighed.
In the end, Ling Yu only said to Xiao Lintian: "There is a saying...if you are poor, you can only benefit yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world!"
"Now you don't have the ability to ask the emperor and Prince Ning to change their minds, so you can only think about the recent events!"
"The most recent thing is that he won the championship in the Four Kingdoms Competition, which shocked the other three countries and made them dare not take action against Western Qin for the time being!"
"One day, your ability is so powerful that you can influence them, and whether or not to fight will depend on your face!"
Xiao Lintian pondered these words all night, and his depression was gone.
Ling Yu is right, only if he is strong enough can he help the world.
Otherwise, his kindness and his dreams will be empty words...
Xiao Lintian stopped worrying and devoted himself to training.
...
The day of the competition soon arrived, and the venue was chosen to be Paoma Mountain in the original Guanjiabao.
After Emperor Wu'an took back Paoma Mountain from the Guan family, he invested a sum of money and turned it into a palace similar to a military training base.
It turned out that Emperor Wu'an liked the Guan family's large square very much, so he kept it.
The houses of the Guan family have also been preserved, and this time they were allocated to the participants from the four countries.
The soldiers brought by the Four Kingdoms set up tents and lived outside the castle.
This time the Sixth Princess was grounded and could not come. She went to beg the Emperor, but the Emperor did not allow it.
The sixth princess went to beg the Queen Mother again, saying that she knew she was wrong, and she just wanted to come with her to see the world, and she would reflect on herself when she went back.
