Age of mythical princes

Chapter 489 Yan Gong’s benevolence
"When do you think Duke Yan's unstoppable dominance of the world became unstoppable?" Sun En took the initiative to change the subject.

Everyone present was also very interested in this new topic. Zhang Liang thought for a while and said, "Maybe it was already destined to be ruled by Yan Gong since the fall of the Jin Kingdom more than 80 years ago."

At that time, the three clans of Han, Zhao and Wei joined forces to fight against Zhiyao.

When Zhiyao became a saint, he also enjoyed the treatment of being surrounded by all the princes in the world.

This is a treatment that Jiang Hua has never enjoyed. He is worthy of being the son of destiny and the protagonist of the previous version of heaven and earth.

If Jiang Hua hadn't appeared out of nowhere and taken away the divine favor from him, many of the princes who blocked the way would have died.

"At that time, Yancheng was not as strong as it is now, but the Saint of Creation became a saint. At that time, Lord Yan also had Jiuding. If the princes had joined forces at that time..."

Before Zhang Liang finished speaking, Li Kui shook his head: "From a political point of view, it was almost impossible for the princes at that time to join forces to deal with Yancheng."

"At that time, the three clans of Han, Zhao and Wei were busy dividing the three families into Jin. In order to occupy more territory, they wanted to fight directly."

"At that time, Qi State had been beaten by Yancheng for more than 30 years. It had long wanted to ask for peace. Tian He had been beaten to the point of losing courage."

"Besides, Yancheng at that time did not show its world-dominating strength. If you were the Marquis of Qin at that time, would you rather attack Hangu Pass or attack Yancheng, which is beyond the reach of eight poles?"

Shang Yang shook his head directly. Others did not have much say on this issue, but Shang Yang was different. He was the ruler of the Qin State: "At that time, the Jin State was destroyed, and everyone in the Qin State was very happy, and they all wanted to find opportunities to go east to Hangu. close."

After saying that, Shang Yang glanced at Wang Jujun: "Just like the people of Chu have always had a dream to conquer the Central Plains, the people of Great Qin have always had a dream to occupy Hangu Pass and spread out from the east."

"This dream started before Duke Mu, who personally sent troops to attack Hangu Pass and failed miserably. Although every time the Great Qin attacked Hangu Pass, it was a disastrous defeat, but the Great Qin's obsession with Hangu Pass has never faded. On the contrary, It’s been strengthened a lot.”

"At that time, Zhi Bo failed to become a saint, Zhao Yang died in this battle again, and the three clans of Han, Zhao and Wei were splitting up again. At that time, everyone in the Qin Dynasty was waiting for an opportunity to attack Hangu Pass."

"Even though Wei Gong later established a so-called alliance of great powers, Yancheng still easily won over Great Qin. This is because Great Qin has always dreamed of occupying Hangu Pass and marching eastward to conquer the world."

"So, even if the Baijia clan joined forces to attack Yancheng more than 80 years ago, it would still be a failure."

"Because, the best we can do is unite internally, and uniting with another Qi country is the limit."

"But when you and the main force of Qi State are dispatched, Yan State will definitely take the opportunity to attack Qi State or Zhao State, Qin State will definitely attack Hangu Pass of Wei State, and Chu State will definitely attack Zheng State and try to enter Lord of the Central Plains.”

"At this time, the coalition forces will naturally fail."

"If this continues, Yancheng will still have the greatest possibility of dominating the world. The only difference is that maybe in this future, the entire world will be destroyed. Yancheng's development cannot be so smooth, and Yancheng has no time. Cultivate so many saints or saint-level combat capabilities.”

"Moreover, countries will be more vigilant towards Yancheng."

"However, none of this can stop Yancheng from dominating the world."

"It's all about development. Yancheng's development speed is much faster than other countries."

"Perhaps in that kind of future, hundreds of thousands or millions of Xuan-level Taoist soldiers will be dispatched among various countries at every turn, resulting in heavy casualties. The closer you get to the back, the less bottom line you get. The further back you go, the heavier the casualties will be." At this point, Shang Yang glanced at the many generals who were drinking in the pavilion next door.

If you move your ears a little, you can hear these guys bragging.

Pang Juan said: "Actually, our Wei Dynasty still has many powerful trump cards that are useless, and there is still a lot of knowledge from Zhibo that has not had time to be transformed into concrete results. Otherwise, we will create dozens of big real-level ferocious beasts in one go. Monsters, nothing to mention.”

Bai Qi on the side sneered: "The same goes for Da Qin. Da Qin has a long history..."

Listening to the bragging of these guys, you will know that all countries actually have some Taoist methods that are not very upright, but are extremely lethal and destructive.

It’s just that the Jin Kingdom has just perished and has just entered the chaotic times of the Warring States Period. The war has not intensified to this extent. Although the bottom line is lower than in the previous hegemonic era, it still creates large-scale monsters, plagues, and natural disasters at every turn. This kind of Taoism is still in the state of conception and has not yet begun to be put into practice.

If you ask why, it's probably because countries only need to learn from Yancheng to become stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye. At this time, they are too lazy to spend time on these crooked ways.

To put it another way, it was Jiang Hua and the existence of Yancheng who raised the bottom line of this era.

When the savages are useful, the savages will not be casually consumed by the nobles.

This is not because the morality of the nobles has improved, but because the existence of Yancheng has made the savages more valuable tools, so the nobles are reluctant to kill the savages at will.

It is not that the bottom line of various countries has really been raised, but that a high bottom line is conducive to the reform and development of various countries.

Listening to the bragging of the generals, Shang Yang continued: "If that is the case, in the future, there may be natural disasters everywhere in the world, floods everywhere, droughts everywhere, and large-scale ferocious beast attacks everywhere. Once this mode is entered, it will be Everyone has broken the bottom line and is not a human being."

Having said this, Shang Yang picked up the tea cup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp: "You are all still young. Many of you were only 30 or [-] years old in the first year of Baijia, so you don't know what happened in the first year of Baijia." Before, the reputation of Qi Refiners was no better than that of nobles, and in many places, the reputation of Qi Refiners was even worse than that of nobles."

"At that time, among the Qi Refiners, there were many ways of killing people, refining souls, slaughtering one party, and doing all kinds of evil."

"It's just that with the rise of Yancheng, this kind of Taoism has gradually become less common."

"Once the first country starts to create ferocious beasts on a large scale, then when it may dominate the world, only about one-tenth of the world's population will be left, or even less."

"At that time, not to mention ordinary people, even small and medium-sized nobles, even big nobles, will not have much sense of security."

"So, it's better now. At least in the process of unifying the world, there won't be much killing. Even if Duke Yan is generous and bribes everyone with money, he is still holding a knife in one hand and candy in the other. He can be considered upright and respected by everyone."

"So, Duke Yan is truly benevolent."

"True benevolence is not about being accommodating or being reasonable. It's about being willing to calm down and reason with you even though I can make you agree with a knife."

　If Baijia goes to war for more than 80 years, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Yancheng, then there is a high probability that the bottom line will be exceeded in the end, and then everyone will break through the bottom line. You use man-made ferocious beasts, and I use man-made natural disasters to hurt each other.As for the Three Saints, when everyone is like this, the Three Saints can only watch when they are not sanctified.
