Xiao Feiyu fell silent as he spoke, while King Jin was listening.

De De was entranced and couldn't help but frown when he saw his silence, "What's wrong with Qian Guo?"

If I remember correctly, this Xiao Feiyu is from Qian Country in the North.

Xiao Feiyu showed a look of helplessness, "Back to the king, I have been away from Qian Country for a long time. How Qian Country has changed now is no longer under my control."

King Jin narrowed his eyes and said again, "With my huge gold and millions of iron cavalry, plus the gunpowder brought by Ai Qing, can I defeat the four kingdoms of the North?"

Xiao Feiyu said calmly, "Soldiers cannot always win, and water cannot always take shape. No one can be 100% sure before the battle begins. However, if the king wants to march into the north, it is best to target Jingguo."

"Why?" King Jin asked.

Xiao Feiyu said, "When I left the north, the four kingdoms had just fought a war. Qian State, Qi State, and Zhou State were severely damaged. Only Jing State's military strength was relatively intact."

"Now more than a year has passed. Although the other three countries are recuperating, it is obviously impossible to return to their peak."

"If Dajin can attack Jingguo with thunderous force and use Jingguo as its foundation, the other three countries will not have anything to worry about."

King Jin laughed loudly, looked at Xiao Feiyu and said, "According to what Ai Qing said in the past, among the four northern kingdoms, the Qian Kingdom is the weakest. It only has five states and six prefectures. Wouldn't it be easy to attack them?"

"Could it be that Aiqing still misses her homeland and can't bear the mountains and rivers of her hometown to be shattered?"

Xiao Feiyu did not refute anything but just looked in the direction of Jingguo and said calmly, "There are great variables in Qianguo. It is probably more difficult to defeat Qianguo than the other three countries combined. As for what the king said about missing his homeland."

Xiao Feiyu smiled, "What I'm asking for is just to let that person experience the feeling of losing everything."

There was some curiosity in the king's eyes: "Who is the person Ai Qing has been talking about? He must not be an ordinary person who can force you to leave your homeland, right?"

Xiao Feiyu nodded, "This is natural, he can be said to be the best genius in the world."

"Then I, the king, will fulfill my long-cherished wish for you!"

After a moment of silence, the King of Jin said calmly, "Xiao Feiyu listened to the order and named Xiao Feiyu the King of the North of Dajin. He will command the entire army. After the spring begins, he will lead the army to pacify the north and open up territory for our Dajin!"

Xiao Feiyu stood up, his expression was not very excited, he was still calm and said, "I obey."

King Jin chuckled and patted his shoulder, "I really want to see the land in the north you mentioned."

"It will satisfy the king."

He turned his back and looked at the endless desert in the distance. The sky was getting darker and darker. The temperature difference between day and night in the northern part of the Jin Kingdom was huge, and the temperature soon dropped by more than ten degrees.

A man came forward, holding a royal seal in his hand, and said respectfully, "King Pingbei, this is the royal seal given by the king."

Xiao Feiyu turned around, looked at the large gilt seal on the tray, and raised his lips.

Zhao Kang, we are going to meet again.

…

The thin and cold temperature of the moon makes people shiver, and light snow falls in the sky, indicating that the new year is approaching.

In the royal study.

Zhao Kang, who was occupying the magpie's nest, raised his head, and Her Majesty the Empress opposite her stretched her chin and watched him flip through the memorials.

"The Ninth Princess of Qi has asked the Pearl Chamber of Commerce to send the sulfur needed to make black powder. The quantity is huge, allowing the Thunder and Fire Bureau to start making cannonballs."
