The rise of a country requires accumulation, and Zhong Yu's imperial country is no exception.
Since he lost his system, many problems that were usually hidden in the corners of the empire have emerged one after another at this moment.
For example, some rare materials and some unique materials are needed to support the development of the empire. Just like the previous special crossbows, they must be made with special materials provided by the system. Crossbow arrows also need to be processed with special materials to have greater power.
However, these materials are not available in the Imperial Kingdom today, and those who want to find substitutes don’t know where to look. Those materials are specialties from other worlds, and they can be said to be very cherished existences even in that world.
But now that the system has been lost, all raw materials for weapons have no source, and the production of many powerful weapons and siege equipment has stopped. Moreover, the population and troops that we are in short supply cannot be exchanged quickly through the system, and we can only accumulate them slowly bit by bit.
All foundations need to be started from scratch and the foundation built step by step. Talents must be cultivated by oneself, and soldiers and horses must be trained by oneself. Once you have any disputes with other countries, your fortunes are bad, your losses are too great, and you suddenly lose your breath, your kingdom may end like this.
Therefore, I have been cautious now. When facing any force in this world, I must slowly test it out and try out the hidden dangers step by step.
Otherwise, with my previous temper, when facing several countries in the south, I would not just ignore the casualties and losses and push them all the way. With his systematic advantages, he can exchange soldiers without any restrictions, provided he has enough luck points.
At that time, we will just use the cannon fodder sea tactic. If you don't believe those Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, their population is limited. Soldier training takes time, and the cultivation of a talent requires a lot of foundation and energy. As for an extraordinary person who is successful in practicing martial arts, it is even more difficult to know how much resources will be consumed and whether he can succeed. After all, martial arts requires talent. He can block his seemingly endless soldiers, and even consume them to death.
Just like the Changping War between Qin and Zhao, the Zhao State lost 400,000 strong men and suffered a great loss in strength. It did not recover until the fall of the Zhao State. The entire country had more women than men. At this time, the distance The Battle of Changping has been going on for thirty or forty years.
Qin also lost more than 200,000 soldiers in that battle, so although it won, its national power was still greatly damaged. After that, there was no major action for nearly ten years, and they were secretly licking their wounds in their own country. It was not until Qin Shihuang ascended the throne that the unification war began.
The same is true for Yuguo now. When facing the seven heroes of the Warring States Period in the south, they are very cautious. I'm just afraid that if one person is not good enough, his army will be ruined and the foundation he has worked so hard to cultivate will be ruined.
When the time comes, your country will be damaged. If you are unlucky, you may be destroyed directly. If you are lucky, you will be able to hide in the northeast corner and survive.
Everything depends on Zhong Yu of his own country. How to survive in this world is hard to say.
Yes, Zhong Yu has a small world, but don't forget that he also has a fatal limitation. That is, if he cannot make his country powerful to a certain extent, then he will never live to be a hundred years old, which will be the most fatal blow to him.
But now, he has destroyed Donghu and Jizi Korea, and gained the vast Northeast and Korean Peninsula. This land is enough to accommodate all the people, and even seems a little empty and sparse.
The only fly in the ointment is that it has not been developed and needs to be managed step by step. As long as you can initially develop it and fully utilize your own population, your strength will definitely be comparable to that of Qin.
When Qin unified the world, its population was only 5 million, and its maximum military strength was only 1 million. And he now has 4.5 million people, but there are a few strong men among them, most of them were consumed by his uncontrolled consumption before.
But if you manage him for five years, or even ten years, and wait until you recover, it is not impossible to have millions of troops.
By that time, the extraordinary soldiers under his command also began to grow, and five or ten years would be enough for them to practice the military skills, which were originally quick skills, to the second-level advanced level.
As for the talent reserve, it has the foundation of the Three Kingdoms world and is not inferior to other countries at all. As for competition at the master level, I have some of my current background. Compared to South Korea, the weakest among the six countries, it should be barely on par, or a little weaker, but not too much.
Coupled with the fact that the ministers and generals under him have the skills he bestowed upon them, as well as the unique cultivation bonus method of his empire, their strength has also progressed extremely quickly. It took them five or ten years to reach the third level, and even some It is normal to cultivate talents to the fourth level.
By then, my master's background will be ranked among the best in the world.
So Zhong Yu is now accumulating and waiting for when he has enough strength. Then send troops south to compete with all the countries in the world.
However, this waiting time is too long. With Zhong Yu's impatient temper, it is really difficult for him to wait slowly.
So he had an idea in his mind, but the execution of the idea had to be organized.
…
In the imperial study, Zhong Yu was summoning his ministers to arrange some important instructions.
"So? Your Majesty is going to leave Yu Guo alone and go on a dangerous trip to the south?" Tian Feng, who had always had a straightforward temper, looked at the emperor in his eyes with some anger.
"Well, you are right. I want to see what my future enemies are like. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles!" He explained the reasons he had thought of before proposing this resolution.
"Then how to deal with His Majesty's safety? There are many masters in the southern countries, and there are countless dangers hidden in unknown places. If you are not careful, it will be difficult to protect Your Majesty's safety!" The more tactful Jusao tried to take a roundabout way.
"When I go south this time, I will leave a secret guard of one hundred households in each of the three northern states to monitor the place. And there will be two more hundred households left, and I will keep these people Take him to the south and inquire about news and accompanying escorts along the way." He first explained the arrangements for the extraordinary power in the country after he left, and then continued.
"In addition, the intelligence base that has been initially established in the south after a year is not considered to be in the dark and has no local foundation. My safety is basically guaranteed enough. Don't forget, I am also a four-year-old. A powerful person!"
"Your Majesty, even so, your safety cannot be absolutely guaranteed. The white dragon fish suit is a bit unreliable no matter how you look at it. I hope your majesty will think twice for the sake of the country!" Zhang Zhao, the official minister, who is somewhat rigid, listened. After Zhong Yu's explanation, he still didn't give up the idea of admonishing.
"Okay, don't say any more. I have made up my mind. No matter what you say, I will never change my mind." After hearing Zhang Zhao's advice, even though I knew from the bottom of my heart that what he said was right, I also appreciated his words. Loyal, but still a little impatient.
"Since your Majesty has decided and I can't dissuade you, I would like to ask your Majesty to agree to one condition, that is, you must wait for news every ten days, so that we can know about your safety!" Among the last ministers! Xun Yu, who knows the general situation best and knows how to adapt, said.
"Yes, your condition is what it should be, and I agree!"
As the last sound fell, Zhong Yu's decision to go south was irreversible.
This is the first time I recommended a book called "Traveling through the Mythical World". I read it and found it pretty good. You can take a look and support the seedlings.
