Chapter 502 It's not bad to say it or not(2/2)
Even the Ministry of Revenue, which was usually stingy, had to allocate most of the money to the Ministry of War to reward the army for use.
These scenes appeared one after another before Li Dunmin's eyes.
He gradually realized that military merit theory is not a long-term way.
If this sign continues to develop, Li Dunmin really doesn't know how he will master this giant beast named Nanli in the next few decades.
If you want to curb this sign, at least now it seems that Li Dunmin is helpless.
Because he is one of the insiders of Feng Buping’s layout.
He knew that this time, Nanli caused the confrontation between the countries and the last target of Nanli was Xi Kun.
There was no counterattack on Dongxun or Central Plains. That was because from the beginning to the end, there was only one goal for Feng Buping in this chess game.
That is the Xikun Dynasty.
This means that when Zhou Dunyi leads his army to the Western Frontier in the future, whether it is the old commander of the Bai family, Bai Qi, or Zhou Dunyi, their troops will gather together.
At that time, Xikun's army, which originally wanted to attack Nanli, would undoubtedly suffer a catastrophe.
With the joint action of the two famous generals and such a strong army, Nanli has never just done anything to repel Xikun's army.
Nanli's goal is to counterattack the Xikun Dynasty this time.
Although it is not guaranteed to destroy the country, because the foundation of the Xikun Dynasty cannot be easily eliminated in a short while, at least, this power alone should be enough to make the Xikun Dynasty suffer some pain.
This is a perfect plan, and this plan is also a chess game that was finally implemented after continuous improvement by people like Zhou Dunyi and others.
However, the consequences of such a chess game have become clearer in Li Dunmin's current view.
What are the consequences?
Now the militants in Nanli and the theory of military merit have become increasingly fierce. Next, if you want to curb this sign in time, the best thing is to end the war as soon as possible and let the Nanli Empire return to peace. In this way, the rising emotions of these militants will slowly be extinguished.
But looking at the current situation, do you want to end the war as soon as possible?
Is this possible?
If we only repel Xikun's army and end the war, it would be possible.
But is this the reality?
Repelling Xikun's army has never been the end. The counterattack of Xikun Dynasty is just the beginning.
This battle will never end in a year.
And a year will pass in the blink of an eye, but Li Dunmin can only deal with these messes helplessly.
Where is the Secretary of Lu?
This was also after hesitating for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and spoke
"Gongjin, he is far from enough to take on this courage. Your Majesty, I hope you can find someone else."
"Looking for others, Lu Shangshu, Zhou Gongjin, I think he is very good. At least in the current perspective, there is no need to find others. Moreover, I have long made some plans to train Zhou Gongjin and Bai Qi together. As long as one of them can appear, he can take over the burden of King Zhou and others in the future."
Li Dunmin chuckled, then he held the teacup in his hand, played with it for a while, and continued to say
"Shangshu Lu, if I remember well, Zhou Gongjin should be like you, Mr. Sang's disciples, right?"
Hearing His Majesty’s question, Shangshu Lu’s face suddenly froze.
After nodding hesitantly, he answered
"Yes, Your Majesty, Wei, and Gongjin are both disciples of Mr. Sang."
"Well, Mr. Sang is also a great wise man in Nanli. It's a pity that I have wanted to recruit Mr. Sang to the court more than once, but every time I have been rejected by Mr. Sang for various reasons. Over time, I also understand. I think that a great wise man like Mr. Sang has no interest in fame and fortune for such ordinary people. Or I think Mr. Sang too vulgar. If I have the chance in the future, I would like to express my humility to Mr. Sang on my behalf."
Li Dunmin suddenly changed his tone and jumped straight out one hundred and eighty degrees.
This made Lu Shangshu a little stunned, but he quickly came to his senses and nodded quickly.
"In addition, I summoned Secretary Lu today to ask you about some things about the Northward Mission here."
Well, this Majesty finally got to the point.
Li Dunmin rubbed his temples with one hand, gently knocked on the coffee table with his fingers, and said softly
"At this time, your Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple will discuss the truce. I understand this, Shangshu Lu, you understand the meaning of this. After all, I just knew it when I saw the list of envoys. Even Minister Gou was sent out. It seems that Shangshu Lu, you are going to eat all the countries in the Central Plains."
As he said this, Li Dunmin couldn't help laughing.
Lu Su regained his serious face and replied
"Mr. Gou is an upright and strong person, but he is in line with the diplomatic affairs of the mission this time. Since the Central Plains countries have no plans to counterattack the Central Plains, it is natural to seek some benefits from the truce agreement. This is naturally understood by the Wei Magistrate's intention."
Li Dunmin raised an eyebrow.
