Chapter 107 Opportunities and Risks

"clear."

Alonso nodded respectfully towards Afonso VI, then turned and left the Chinese army tent, leaving Afonso VI alone in deep thought.



"It's interesting. Do you think it would be interesting if Cide really wore a yellow robe?"

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Zhang Jingxu on the side shook his head and said: "Then he is not Xide. Then someone will tell you that the adaptation is not random editing, and the drama is not nonsense. How does your TV station arrange the plot for Xide? It is to tell you

All Spaniards apologize."

Liu Xing shrugged and said with a smile: "That's right, Xide is a typical national hero. Everything they do is for their country and people, so even if he wears a yellow robe, Xide cannot become Xide.

If you are virtuous, just like Yue Fei will not become Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty."

"Because Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty was a slave of Liu Jin, and Liu Yu, as the founding emperor of the former Song Dynasty, was born more than 800 years earlier than Yue Fei." Yin En complained.

Being complained about by his subordinates twice in a row, Liu Xing felt a little embarrassed for a moment, so he could only choose to change the topic, "Watch the game, watch the game, ah no, Mu Yao, please change the perspective and cut to that Andre.

Use his vision to take a look at the preparations of the Northern Allied Forces."

Mu Yao nodded and handed the camera to Andre who was walking beside the Tagus River. At this time, there was a young man who looked exactly like him beside Andre.

"Father, do you think His Majesty is too petty? He is still unwilling to call Cid back even now?"

The young man kicked a stone at his feet into the river, sighed and continued: "Now that the Kingdom of Spain has only been established for a while, we want to carry out such a large-scale battle. Your Majesty is too militaristic.

?If the goal of this battle was not to unify the Iberian Peninsula, I think those people would have complained long ago, but the current situation is not much better. I heard that people in some places have begun to refuse recruitment."

"That's normal."

Andre also sighed, patted the young man on the shoulder and said: "Once a war of this scale starts, it will not be over in a few months, and this is still under the condition that the war situation is one-sided. If both sides

If there is a stalemate and a siege war is carried out against several important cities, it is possible to fight for two or three years; now in more than a month, it will be the time to sow, so those families with only one or two strong laborers,

How could you leave your own family's mainstay to respond to the call? And it's a battle where life or death is uncertain once you leave."

Just as the young man was about to speak, Andre shook his head and said: "Anke, you are still a little too young, and you think of many things too simply. The reason why these people who oppose the recruitment dare to do this is because they themselves are unwilling

In addition to participating in the battle, another important reason is that the nobles behind them do not want them to leave their territory. After all, most nobles will not personally participate in production. They will only blindly obtain food from their people.

, so once these strong laborers among the people leave, these nobles will have to eat chaff."

"This, how dare they do this?!"

Angke looked shocked and wanted to say something more, but in the end he hesitated because he could "understand" why those nobles would do this. After all, he was also a noble himself, and his father had also stepped forward over the years.

He had gradually delegated powers to him, including collecting taxes from farmers in his territory, so he knew very well that if all the strong laborers in his territory responded to the call, the things his family would receive next year would be at least half as much as this year.

!

"It seems that Angke has thought clearly. Many people in our family's territory are my old subordinates, so they are willing to follow me to participate in this war, because as long as they can survive, they can finally get

A large reward, no matter how bad it is, can reduce their taxes for a few years. As for our family, we will certainly receive generous rewards, so the lost tax revenue is nothing to us; but some nobles did not send anyone to participate.

In this war, what they lost is real."

Andre looked at the enemies on the other side of the Tagus River, shook his head and said: "If we can win this war and completely take back the Iberian Peninsula, then all this will be easy to say, because we can get the Moors for so many years.

With all the savings, the nobles can get a lot of rewards, and the common people can get more land, so no one will care about this small loss."

"But if we lose..."

Looking at Angke who was hesitant to speak, Andre continued: "Then the Kingdom of Spain, no, it should be said that our Majesty will be in trouble, because all the faults are on him, even if there are some mistakes

He should not be blamed."

"Why?"

Looking at Angke who looked confused, Andre said seriously: "Because he is the king, it's as simple as that, unless he can find someone to bear these mistakes for him, but how can one person bear so many mistakes?"

What's wrong? No, maybe Cide can bear these mistakes."

"Then why didn't Your Majesty ask Cide to help? Cide can help him fight and take the blame for him. Why would Your Majesty refuse such a good thing?"

Before Andre could speak, Angke clapped his hands and asked himself: "So that's it. I remember you once told me, father, that the world is not black and white. The same thing will be different under different circumstances.

Or there are good and bad things in the eyes of different people, so those wrongs may become right!”

"It seems that you kid has carefully remembered what I said to you."

Andre nodded happily and said with a smile: "Now our Majesty just wants to take a gamble and bet that he can win this war, so he doesn't want others to share the fruits of his victory; if Cid joins

If there is a battle, then Cide will steal His Majesty's limelight. After all, Angke, you also know who your friends who grew up with you, including you, regard as their idols."

"Cid!"

Angko replied without hesitation: "Ren and his idols are the same as me, that is Cid, because he is so powerful, and he maintains absolute loyalty to the country, and he is also very knightly when facing the enemy.

Spirit, by the way..."

Looking at his son who had become Cid's biggest fan, Andre shook his head and said, "So do you think His Majesty can compare to Cid?"
