What an equal division among the six kingdoms! Feng, Mo, Yu and Zhen Kingdom are not next to each other at all. They are either separated by Huan Kingdom or An Kingdom. The Feng Kingdom in the north and the Zhen Kingdom in the southwest are even further away. Even though
How to manage the territory after it is assigned to it?
Lingshuang clenched her fists. It was only now that she understood Xiao Xuan's intention. The reason why he asked Feng, Mo and Yu Sanguo was clearly to let them do the work for free, and Yi'an and Huan were so afraid of Sichuan.
, you don’t need to guess to know that after the destruction of Zhen, the country that took advantage the most was the Sichuan Kingdom.
Xiao Xuan wanted to annex the Zheng Kingdom, but he did not dare to say it openly, so he pulled the other five countries to join him. He also found a justifiable and impeccable excuse to fight against the emperor's rebellion and support the path of justice.
In the battle to destroy Zhen, the losses were shared equally among the six countries, and the Sichuan country had the final advantage. How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Ling Shuang's face became increasingly ugly, her little hands placed under the table were clenched tighter and tighter, and her joints gradually turned white due to excessive exertion.
Tang Yin, who was sitting next to her, saw her reaction, and he could understand that he couldn't stand Xiao Xuan, who was gentle on the surface but full of calculations, but it was not wise to openly fall out with Xiao Xuan now.
He quietly reached out his hand and wrapped Lingshuang's little fist.
The latter was startled and turned to look at him in surprise. Tang Yin was sitting there, expressionless, with a vague smile still on his face. But under the table, he secretly opened her fingers and touched her palm.
I quickly wrote two words: learn from me.
Lingshuang was also an extremely smart girl. She understood Tang Yin's meaning immediately. She took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart again and again, holding back.
Tang Yin and Lingshuang could pretend to be dumb, but Shao Fang couldn't stand it. He suddenly burst into laughter and said: "Brother Xiao Wang, our country of Mo is thousands of miles away from Zhen Kingdom. Even if we get the territory of Zhen Kingdom, Brother Wang
How can I govern it?"
Xiao Xuan had already thought of the wording and said with a smile: "Brother Shao doesn't have to worry about this. If the Mo Kingdom cannot manage the divided Zhen Kingdom territory because it is located in the north, the Sichuan Kingdom can manage it on its behalf. The annual tax revenue, food
, Sichuan country will not take any penny or grain, and will send them all to Mo country. What do you think, Prince Shao?"
"This..." If this is the case, it is acceptable. Shao Fang rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Wang has thought carefully, so let's do what Brother Wang wants!"
Xiao Xuan then said to Tang Yin and Lingshuang: "Of course, the Feng and Yu Kingdoms are the same as the Mo Kingdom. After the destruction of Zhen, the divided territory will be temporarily managed by our Sichuan Kingdom, and the taxes and food will be sent to your two countries respectively.
…”
This time, before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin had already waved his hand and said, "I think what Brother Xiao Wang means is inappropriate."
Hearing this, everyone frowned and secretly dumbfounded, Tang Yin was so brave, he dared to openly contradict the King of Sichuan.
He continued: "In order to seek rebellion for the emperor, we, the Feng Kingdom, do not ask for anything in return. As for the division of territory, Lie Gong does not need to consider the Feng Kingdom. We, the Feng Kingdom, will automatically abstain. The territory that should have been allocated to the Feng Kingdom will be divided by Lie Gong.
Bar!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present opened their mouths unconsciously. Even Xiao Xuan did not expect that Tang Yin would give up dividing Zhenguo's territory. This was incredible. How could Tang Yin be so generous?
Lingshuang, who was on the same side as Tang Yin, was also puzzled. King Sichuan's conditions were good. Sichuan would manage the divided territory on his behalf, and return taxes and grain production every year. This was also a considerable amount of income!
Although Tang Yin has never been to Zhenguo, he knows a little about the situation in Zhenguo. Zhenguo is vast and has few people (otherwise it would be impossible for all the people to be soldiers). It is mostly a barren land and has no bullshit taxation and grain production. Moreover,
It is said that the Sichuan State will manage the allocated land on its behalf. It is easy to make a lie. Although it sounds nice, no penny or grain will be collected. In fact, the amount of tax revenue and grain production of the allocated land are not all based on the words of the Sichuan State? He
I can give you as much as I want. When Xiao Xuan no longer wants to give you a penny in the future, what can you do to him?
Rather than being controlled by others, it is better to be more generous and not divide the land at all, and take the opportunity to strive for maximum benefits from other aspects.
Xiao Xuan didn't know what Tang Yin was planning, so he asked suspiciously: "Brother Tang Wang, are you really not planning to get the land of Zhenguo?"
"That's right!" Tang Yin answered simply.
Hearing his confirmation again, the confusion on Xiao Xuan's face was gradually replaced by a smile. Just as he was about to speak, Tang Yin continued: "Of course, we, the Feng Kingdom, cannot send troops in vain, waste food and wages, increase casualties, and engage in loss-making business.
The Feng Kingdom gave up its fiefdom on the condition that everything captured by the Feng Army in the battle against Zhen would belong to the Feng Kingdom, and everything captured by the other countries would be taken out and divided equally with the Feng Kingdom."
After hearing this, Xiao Xuan and others felt dumbfounded. They didn't know whether to say that Tang Yin was pretending to be smart or to scold him for being stupid.
No matter how much loot is captured, it must have a certain amount, but this is not the case with land division. It can produce money and grain year after year, which can make the country profitable for many years. How can it be captured in World War I?
Can the mere trophies be compared?
This was obviously a deal that would bring losses to the Feng Kingdom. Now it was proposed by Tang Yin himself. How could anyone object? The kings looked at each other, and then nodded in agreement: "We fully accept Brother Tang's proposal, and we will follow Brother Tang's wishes."
Do it, Feng Kingdom does not want to divide the land, we will share the spoils equally with Feng Kingdom!"
Tang Yin smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Brother Li Wang, for taking care of me!" While speaking, he quietly kicked Ling Shuang's feet under the table to remind her not to forget what he had just reminded her.
It was obviously a loss, but Tang Yin decided to do this. Lingshuang couldn't understand what he was thinking. But was Tang Yin a fool? Of course not, and on the contrary, when he was smart, he was smarter than a ghost, so he suffered a loss.
He won't do it.
Relying on her understanding of Tang Yin and her unspeakable trust, Lingshuang vaguely said to the kings: "My country, the Jade Kingdom, also chose to be like the Feng Kingdom, giving up the land and only wanted the spoils."
Yes! Here comes another fool! It’s true that birds of a feather flock together and people flock together. Tang Yin and Ling Shuang can get married. It can be said that they are a ‘match made in heaven’.
At this time, even Xiao Xuan, who was so calm, burst out laughing, nodded and said, "Okay, as Sister Ling Wang wished! Since both Feng and Yu have given up on dividing their territories, then after Zhen is destroyed, Zhen's territory will
, divided equally by Sichuan, An, Huan, and Mo. Of course, for the sake of fairness, all the spoils captured by the Feng and Yu armies belong to the two countries themselves. The spoils of the other four countries are divided equally with Feng and Yu.
Any objections?"
"No!"
"Yes! That's it!"
All the kings had no objections, and the matter was settled. Subsequently, the six kings discussed the details of the battle to destroy Zhen, including the time for each country to send troops, the number of troops to send, the legions to be dispatched, and the logistics, food, and supplies, etc.
wait.
Time passed quickly, and by the time everyone had settled on the big details, the sky was already dark. Seeing that all the kings were tired, Yue Ze immediately invited everyone to take a seat in the main hall of the palace, and everyone had a drink together.
In the main hall, a banquet had already been arranged. The main seat in the middle was the emperor's throne. No one dared to sit on it. The kings took their seats on both sides, and the ministers they brought with them were lined up.
The atmosphere of the banquet was lively, and even Shao Fang, who had been in a bad mood recently, enjoyed eating and drinking.
Although Tang Yin split the five counties of his country of Mo, he suffered a big loss in the extermination of Zhen. He pulled the country of Jade to give up the land division, which was an advantage to the four countries of Mo, Sichuan, An and Huan.
The vast Zhen Kingdom has a total of 21 counties, which are divided equally among the four countries. At least five counties can be divided among them. The five counties that were split off from the Mo Kingdom were immediately made up. How could Shao Fang not be excited? He got Zhen Kingdom.
The five counties will make the Mo Kingdom even more powerful. It will not be difficult to recapture the divided five counties in one go once they have enough troops. By then, it will be the time for the Mo Kingdom to counterattack the Feng Kingdom. Shao Fang silently calculated in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more proud he became.
, the smile on his face is getting deeper and deeper.
The banquet went smoothly, and the kings chatted and laughed while eating wine and food. When most of the food and wine were eaten, Yue Ze clapped his hands and called the dancer who had been arranged to dance for the kings.
The wealth of Anguo is famous among other countries. Even the dancers wear gold and silver and are dressed elegantly. In addition, they are all selected young girls. They dance in the hall and everyone is mesmerized.
drunk.
When the dance ended, Yue Ze clapped his hands again, and the dancers dispersed automatically and consciously, and threw themselves into the arms of the kings one after another.
Tang Yin didn't like strangers getting close, especially in Anguo. He had to be careful at all times. When two dancers came towards him from the left and right, Tang Yin waved his arms and pushed them both away.
The two women looked at him in surprise, and the smile on Yue Ze's face froze for an instant. He was very puzzled, but he did not dare to reprimand Tang Yin. He pointed at the two women and asked: "How did these two cheap maids offend His Highness Feng Wang?"
?”
The two women turned pale with fright, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly.
Tang Yinze smiled leisurely and said to Yue Ze: "Brother Yue Wang has misunderstood. They are very good."
"Then why, Prince Tang..."
"With my wife here, how dare I hug you?" Tang Yin glanced at the Lingshuang at his hand while speaking. Sometimes he had to admit that Lingshuang could really prevent him from a lot of troubles.
If he hadn't mentioned it himself, people would have almost forgotten that he and Lingshuang had become husband and wife. Yue Ze also suddenly realized, patted his round head, laughed and said: "Oh, this is my negligence, sin, sin!"
As he spoke, he smiled at Ling Shuang again and said, "Sister Ling Wang, please don't be offended if this king has some improper arrangements!"
Lingshuang forced a smile and said, "How could that be? Brother Yue Wang is too polite." While speaking, she did not forget to glare at Tang Yin secretly, warning him not to blame everything on her.
