Age of mythical princes

Chapter 424 Unbreakable Alliance

Wei Si, Li Kui, and Pang Juan gathered together again and began to discuss important matters.

However, today's matter is mainly political, so Pang Juan just raised his head and listened. He was not prepared to speak.Just like when Pang Juan and Wei Si discussed military matters, Li Kui usually didn't speak as long as he didn't ask.

The reason why Pang Juan is here is more to show that Weiss values ​​​​Pang Juan, and it is also for Weiss to unite people.

In the past few months, the feudal lords have been working hard to move, and the princes have been paying the price and taking over new territories.It seems that the three families of Han, Zhao and Wei have missed this time in vain and have done nothing, just like fools.

In fact, this is not the case. In the past few months, major countries have also been extremely busy.

The first is the establishment of a technical alliance.

Which technology, how much money was invested, and if it produces results, how will the results be divided?If there is still no results by then, should we continue or what?

Another example is the field of basic materials. Those with money contribute with money and those with resources contribute resources. It sounds very simple, but how much money corresponds to how many resources correspond to how many manpower?Countries with a lot of resources will definitely want to let their own countries take advantage.

At this time, even if it is just a percentage point, when it is implemented, it will be tens of billions, hundreds of billions or even trillions of wealth. How can ordinary people have the courage to make a casual decision?
Shouldn't this be investigated carefully and studied carefully?

From the meeting of the princes to reaching an initial vision, to the repeated push and pull of the people below, various investigations, arguments and even shouting, to the final implementation, it is not that easy.

As for the three clans of Han, Zhao and Wei, they still have a more important thing to do, which is to occupy the territory of the Zhi clan and then divide the families peacefully.

Occupy the territory, that's done.

The matter of peaceful family separation is very critical. Now everyone is quarreling hard and trying to take advantage as much as possible.

There are actually many kinds of things.

"Your Majesty, in the past, in order to better prepare for war, both we and the Zhi family contracted out agriculture. Now, about [-]% of the land in our entire Jin country is cultivated in Yancheng."

Looking at this data, Weiss didn't know what to say.

However, Weiss was a very outstanding prince after all, so he smiled and said: "Before, everything was to defeat Zhishi. At that time, it was normal for everyone to have a close relationship with Yancheng."

In one sentence, Weiss set the tone.

"At that time, even if we were alone, we were very close to Yancheng. At that time, who could have known that we could defeat Zhishi so smoothly?"

"So, in order to win at that time, everyone signed many contracts with Yancheng, and some people even accidentally leaked some secrets. This is normal."

"At that time, people were panicked, and no one knew whether they would win or lose tomorrow. Therefore, some nobles separated their families and went to Yancheng, leaking some secrets by the way. It is understandable."

Hearing this, Pang Juan understood what Weiss was thinking. This was to let bygones be bygones!

In short, until the end of the decisive battle, all actions before the decisive battle will be directly pardoned.Even if the secrets of the Wei family were betrayed at that time, even if the secrets of Jin were betrayed at that time, even if the target of the betrayal was not Yancheng but other Chu, Qin, Qi or even an unknown country, Wei Si would not hold them accountable. !

As long as you behave well, work seriously, and be loyal to me, Weiss, from now on, you will do well!
Li Kui expressed his understanding and smiled happily. It was indeed very comfortable to partner with a monarch like Wei Si and work together to govern a country.

Many times, as soon as Li Kui started, Weiss knew what to do and could do it very well. This is very rare!
Such monarchs have been rare throughout history.

Immediately, Li Kui continued: "Your Majesty, the entire Jin Kingdom now has nearly two thousand counties. After the three families are divided into Jin, it is estimated that the Wei family will have about [-] counties."

"Currently, the total population of these 25 counties is approximately 200 billion. Among them, Wei's originally occupied more than 200 counties. These more than [-] counties have initially implemented six-year primary education."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see how much the ten-year primary education played a role in Yancheng’s development today.

However, if we want to see results in education, it will take at least ten to twenty years.

And Weiss took charge of the Wei family more than 30 years ago, during which time he experienced a series of problems such as newcomers taking office, old people retiring, and reforms encountering obstacles.To this day, Weiss can only implement six-year primary education in the territory, and it is not free.

The main reason is that there is no money!
Education is really expensive.

In the past, most of the money was spent on preparing for war.

"In the past, I have always wanted to fire up Yancheng and provide ten-year primary education for free, but it was not possible, and I couldn't even find enough qualified teachers."

"Now, more than 30 years later, we finally have enough teachers to fully roll out primary education throughout Wei's territory."

"However, primary education is very expensive. Although there are enough teachers, there are too many students, so we have to find ways to make money."

Hearing this, Li Kui stroked his beard, drew a map, pointed at Weiguo on the map and said: "After the three families were divided into Jin, Weiguo bordered us. Now Weihou is spreading money everywhere to bribe Xiaofeng. Gentlemen, I want to peacefully take over the feudal kingdom of the little lord." "If the Weihou can go well and swallow up all the surrounding little lords and small vassal states, then the territory of the Weiguo will expand from more than 200 counties. To more than 500 counties.”

"So, for Marquis Wei, the most important thing now is time."

"The Marquis of Wei needs time to buy off the little lords one by one, and the Marquis of Wei also needs time to digest the newly acquired territory."

"Marquis Wei, we still need time to carry out reforms so that we can strengthen our country."

"Of course, not only Weihou needs time, Yancheng also needs time."

"So, in order to delay time, Duke Yan invited the princes from all over the world, brokered the deal between the Marquis of Wei and the little feudal lord, and encouraged the ambitious people in the three university palaces to come out."

"Now, Le Yi has gone to Zheng State. With him in Zheng State, he can definitely hold back the Han family."

"The State of Qin has always been eyeing Hangu Pass. In the past, when the State of Jin was still there, the State of Qin defeated Hangu Pass several times. Now that once the State of Jin is gone, the Marquis of Qin will definitely take action against Hangu Pass."

But can the Wei family lose Hangu Pass?
No!

If the Wei family lost Hangu Pass, then Qin's army would be too close to Wei's capital.At that time, in order to avoid Qin's military front, it would even be necessary to move the capital.But moving the capital is a major event that affects the fate of the country.

Hangu Pass is an irreconcilable conflict between the Wei family and the Qin State!
Perhaps, a lot of cooperation can be established between the Wei family and the Qin State, but the contradiction at Hangu Pass is really too big!

If they want stability, the Wei family must fight a battle with the Qin State around Hangu Pass to dispel Qin's greed for Hangu Pass. The fight will hurt. Only in this way can the Wei family and the Qin State cooperate for a period of time.

Similarly, for the Qin State, only by occupying Hangu Pass first and digesting Hangu Pass can they have time to accompany the Wei family for a period of peace.

The same is true for the Han family. The Han family also has to fight with the Chu State, or at least with the Chu State's partial masters to prove themselves.

The Zhao family also had to fight with Yan or Qi to prove themselves.

Every big country faces many problems.The top priorities of every major country are different.

Therefore, the great powers unite as one to fight against Yancheng, which only exists in dreams.This is not because big countries and princes are all short-sighted, but it is because there is no future without the present.

"Now, our Wei family's food is controlled by Yancheng, and we cannot have food independently. In this case, we will definitely not be able to go to war with Yancheng."

"This situation is very common. In all other countries except Qin, more than half of the food is directly affected by Yancheng. Qin is less, but [-]% of the land is directly cultivated by Yancheng, and high-yielding varieties and local treasures are also purchased from Yancheng. .”

“If the problem of food self-sufficiency is not solved for one day, this war will not be fought!”

"This means that although people are shouting about fighting and killing, in fact the world is peaceful."

"Since we can't fight with Yancheng in a short time, we can ask Yancheng for money. We can confidently tell Yan Gong that we have seen through his strategy. Now the Wei family has decided to cooperate with his strategy and will not treat other small countries within 20 years. Take action."

"Wei took the initiative to cooperate with Yancheng and was the first to cooperate. Yancheng must give some benefits!"

"Now, we don't have much confidence, but can Duke Yan be confident?"

"Even if Mr. Yan himself is full of confidence, is it possible that every high-level executive in Yancheng can be full of confidence?"

"At this time, we will spend money to eliminate disasters and lend us free money to help Wei's development. We will pay back the money. As for when to pay back, we will decide when the time comes."

"Money can be borrowed first, resources can be obtained first, and technologies can be obtained one by one!"

"As long as we provide money and supplies, we can have peace for 20 years. Within 20 years, we will not attack small countries."

“Yancheng is definitely willing to accept this condition!”

"Is this too risky? What if 20 years later..." Pang Juan couldn't help but worry.

Weiss nodded affirmatively: "Everything you do has risks, even if you do nothing, there are risks."

"When we get the money and materials from Yancheng, we can immerse ourselves in farming for 20 years. During these 20 years, the big countries have basically maintained peace. Everyone exchanges technology with each other to improve national strength. At the same time, they cultivate their own Qi practitioners and slowly replace Yancheng. The Qi Refiners must at least completely take agriculture into their own hands."

"When a new generation of people is trained in 20 years, it will be time for Wei to start taking action."

"I can't believe it. In 20 years, Weiguo's reform results will be stronger than ours!"
