Chapter 1048: Who is the thief who steals the country!
After listening to the second elder Wu Tong's narration, Yao Yun finally understood what the so-called Emperor Mu's generosity was all about.
It turned out that the Celestial Dynasty was conquering the princes of Dongyi and was distracted in resisting the Xirong. The ancient kingdom of Beidi was fighting on three fronts at the same time. The princes from all sides came forward to express great pressure.
As a result, Emperor Mu took advantage of the situation and proposed to create several new armies.
These elite divisions were under the direct control of the Xia Dynasty. The emperor issued recruitment orders to the world and recruited troops. Soon, they would be able to create elite divisions whose paper strength was comparable to that of the fifth-grade Zhenguo.
Of course, it is not enough to have an elite army to defend the country. The most important thing is to have a "military soul."
However, this is not a problem for the new army under the direct jurisdiction of the Celestial Dynasty. With the blessing of Zhu Xia Dynasty's powerful national dynasty, the new army has grown at an astonishing rate. It started as a third- or even fourth-level elite division.
After several months of war training, there are now six new elite divisions that have been promoted to the fifth-level elite divisions of the country, and more than 20 top-level elite divisions of the fourth level, and the new elite divisions are still as follows.
The dumplings are average, prepared one after another.
In a word, the entire Zhuxia Dynasty has begun to enter the crazy violent army mode.
After hearing this, Yao Yun was extremely shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The crazy military expansion of the Xia Dynasty will indeed greatly reduce the pressure, and the counterattacks of the ancient wilderness countries from all sides will become ineffective, which will greatly help the Xia Dynasty sweep across the eight wastelands.
But the problem is that the Zhu Xia dynasty continues to expand its troops violently, which will undoubtedly form a situation of "the country retreats and the dynasty advances".
In other words, the princes from all sides in the world declined, and the emperor's authority skyrocketed, which in turn led to the dynasty becoming a single-minded people who obeyed the emperor's orders.
At that time, Emperor Mu was reluctant to invade the Southern Barbarians at first, and all the princes in the world joined forces to impeach him, forcing the emperor to submit. It would be difficult to happen in the future.
In the human world, soldiers and horses are symbols of authority.
As a prince, no prince would want to see the emperor become powerful.
"What does Di Mu want to do? Didn't all the princes stop him?"
Yao Yun only felt that the matter was a bit ridiculous. If he had not practiced in seclusion, he would definitely not agree to the emperor Di Mu's nonsense.
The second elder, Wu Tong, sighed slightly: "How come no one objects? The emperor, Emperor Mu, just proposed it and was strongly opposed by the princes from all sides. The impeachment memorial floated to the imperial capital like snowflakes."
Yao Yun nodded slightly: "Well, what happened next? Why did the princes compromise."
The second elder Wu Tong sighed quietly:
"On the one hand, the pressure of fighting on the third front in Zhuxia Dynasty is indeed a bit high. All the ancient kingdoms in the wilderness know that they are facing life and death, and everyone has gone crazy. So far, more than twenty small vassal states in Zhuxia Dynasty have perished.
, many powerful vassal states also suffered heavy losses. From a practical point of view, the dynasties of the various kingdoms are indeed in urgent need of fresh blood. This is an indisputable fact, and everyone is well aware of it."
Yao Yun nodded again and again, discussing the matter based on the facts and not the position. It was indeed necessary to build a new army.
Immediately afterwards, the second elder Wu Tong said again:
"On the other hand, Emperor Mu summoned all the great imperial clans and powerful vassal states in the Middle East to lobby in person, claiming that the dynasties of the Xia Dynasty are now at the peak of their power, and sooner or later they will sweep across the wasteland. By then, the strength of the vassal states of all parties will increase. If the celestial dynasty does not
Expand the new army and replenish the strength. In the future, the emperor will no longer be able to shoulder the burden of the world, and the so-called common master of the world will exist in name only, which will greatly shaken the fundamental system of the Xia - the abdication system."
The emperor and the princes in the world are mutually reinforcing and mutually reinforcing each other, and there is an extremely delicate balance. No matter which side is too powerful, it will break the balance, and then in an instant the system that the dynasties have been running for thousands of years will collapse.
Why did the system of the Zhuxia dynasty operate for tens of thousands of years?
Nothing but stability.
The relationship between the princes of Zhuxia and the princes from all directions was stable;
The situation between the Xia Dynasty and the ancient kingdoms in all directions is stable;
In this steady-state environment, the overall pattern of the human world has not fundamentally changed.
But now, the Xia Dynasty is at its peak, the ancient kingdoms of all sides are in danger, and the situation that has remained unchanged for many years has suddenly undergone drastic changes.
Under this unprecedented change in thousands of years, the previous system has been seriously threatened and challenged. If it does not change, it will collapse sooner or later.
"It makes sense to say so. No wonder Di Mu was able to suppress the opposition. These are very practical issues that concern the princes of the world."
Yao Yun lost his initial impatience and instead carefully considered the key points.
"Hmph~ I'm annoyed when you talk about it!" The second elder thought of something, looked distressed, and said angrily:
"That boy Di Mu is always making trouble with our Xi country. That day he named our Xi country in front of all the princes, saying that our Xi country is very powerful and will become even more powerful in the future;
If the power of the emperor and the center of the dynasty is not strengthened, the dynasty will not be able to suppress a vassal state as powerful as the Xi Kingdom in the future, and then the emperor's abdication will become a child's play, and whoever has a bigger fist will be able to sit on the throne of the emperor."
Yao Yun was amused: "Is this considered Emperor Mu praising us and making Xi Country famous?"
The second elder, Wu Tong, smiled bitterly: "Who says it's not the case? Initially, the princes were still hesitant, but after hearing the Emperor Mu's name for the Xi Kingdom, many princes changed their flags and supported the expansion of the Celestial Empire's army!"
After saying that, the second elder Wu Tong and Yao Yun both fell silent.
The emperor's words were heart-wrenching words, stirring up the minds of all the princes in the world.
Looking at the princes from all over the world, who does not dream of becoming the world leader and taking the position of co-owner of the world?
But the strong rise of Xi State broke the balance among the princes!
As Di Mu said, if the emperor and the center of the celestial dynasty do not increase their strength, no one will be able to suppress the Xi Kingdom in the future, and there will be no suspense about the emperor's position.
Going one step further, if Yao Yun sits on the throne of the Emperor and Xi Guo continues to be so powerful, won’t the public world become the private world of his Yao family in the future?!
This scene is something that no prince in the world wants to see.
Compared with the expansion of the emperor and the center of the celestial dynasty, the princes from all over the world were more afraid of the Xi Kingdom growing into a behemoth that no one could control.
It can be said that the emperor's move was a conspiracy, and he hit the key point of the princes' suspicion of the Xi Kingdom in one fell swoop. He used his emotions to understand the situation and successfully implemented his plan in one fell swoop.
"The strength of the Celestial Dynasty has greatly increased, but it is unnecessary for our Xi Kingdom. We are afraid that Emperor Mu will target us." Long Erye, who had been silent for a long time, let out a long sigh, his eyes full of worry.
The second elder Wu Tong comforted him and said, "You don't have to worry too much, Mr. Long. The emperor is not the only one who has the final say in the dynasty. The center of the dynasty and all the armies are mostly in the hands of the major imperial clans in the Middle East. Emperor Mu cannot cover up the sky with one hand.
Your Majesty, do you think so?"
Yao Yun smiled and was noncommittal.
Others might not be able to see through Di Mu's plan, but Yao Yun could vaguely guess it.
Perhaps the forces of the Central-Turk Imperial Clan can infiltrate the new army, but the elite divisions directly under the Celestial Empire and the elite divisions under the command of various countries are two different concepts.
Although the various vassal states in Xia were dependent on the Celestial Empire, each of them was highly independent and autonomous. Even if the Emperor wanted to sanction one party, it would at most deprive a country of part of its luck, which would then lead to a decline in the strength of the country's luck masters, and
There is no way to bypass the princes and directly control the elite division;
However, it is different if the elite division is directly under the jurisdiction of the Celestial Empire. The emperor has great control and can decide the life or death of the elite division with just one word.
Although the major imperial clans in China have tried their best to deploy a large number of people into the new army, this can prevent the emperor from becoming a dominant family, and then form a subtle situation of mutual constraints.
However, the prerequisite for maintaining a balanced situation is that the Zhuxia dynasty is still the dynasty that belongs to the princes of all parties.
If one day someone changes the situation and steals the power of the country into private hands, then the situation will be different.
As long as he is willing, a single thought can kick the forces of the Central Earth Imperial Clan out of the new army, turn the army of the Celestial Empire into a private army of one family, and then turn the public world into a private world!
"Di Mu is good at planning. If he doesn't take action, it's fine. Once he does, it's a big deal!"
Yao Yun raised his head, looking at the turbulent destiny of the world, and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
