Chapter 407 The Court Battle, the Two Major Factions
"One month in Xuantian Continent is equivalent to three months in the local world!"
"In other words, the empire still has three months to organize this plane expedition. It seems that this time it is really serious."
Ying Ji twisted his neck, and for the first time, such a vigorous fighting spirit was ignited.
Crossing so many world class boundaries and conducting plane expedition operations is a super test for the empire.
The blood in his chest was burning, and his eyes were shining. Ying Ji understood that this was not only a tough bone to crack, but also the first real test the empire had encountered since its founding.
However, in addition to the trump card that Ying Ji has been hiding, there is another important reason, which is an important factor for Ying Ji to dare to invade Xuantian Continent.
That is, according to Ying Ji's understanding, among the five regions of Xuantian, except for the southern region, which is not only the smallest, most barren, weakest, and most backward region, it is also because the southern region has a natural barrier.
With an area of nearly 10 million kilometers, the endless desert the size of the Sahara Desert separates the already barren and backward Southern Region from the other Xuantian Four Regions.
There are endless deserts blocking the connection between the southern region and the other four regions, which is extremely rare, or even nearly cut off. The other four regions also have no interest in the most barren and backward places in the southern region, and never take the initiative to communicate.
If things go on like this, the southern region seems to be infinitely close to the forgotten land, and it is gradually forgotten by the four regions of Xuantian, and the degree of forgetting is getting deeper and deeper!
At this time, even if there is an inexplicable force that knocks down the entire Southern Territory, and then does some aftermath work well, and even the changes in the Southern Territory, Xuantian Four Territories will not have the slightest awareness at all. Not too much.
This is Ying Ji's plan, a big plan to swallow the river and drink the sea!
…
"Everyone, this is the way it is. The change in Xuantian is an unprecedented challenge for the empire, but it is also a rare opportunity."
"It is necessary to seize this opportunity and face the difficulties, not to mention occupying the entire Xuantian Southern Region, but it is also very good to build a plane war base in the Xuantian Continent."
"A bridgehead that can invade the advanced world at any time, what this means, I don't say that you should know it!"
In Xianyang Palace, Ying Ji directly called Manchu cultural relics to hold a court meeting.
Looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, Ying Ji said.
Most of the imperial court and opposition officials still did not respond, and they were still immersed in Ying Ji's words just now, and they felt shocked by the refugees in their hearts.
"Zhongqian World, it turned out to be a Middle Thousand World!"
"My God, if it is really as His Majesty said, to build a war bridgehead that can invade the Middle Thousand World at any time, what a temptation this is."
Many imperial officials thought so in their hearts.
Even the eyes of Bei Yanzi, the minister of home cloth and Cui Wenzi, the minister of fire, who have always been known for their indifference in the court and the opposition, lit up.
Because they know what a Middle Thousand World means to the empire, and even more to themselves and others.
As far as the matter is concerned, the local world in which the empire is located is not even a small world.
The limit of the powerhouse that can be born naturally is the existence of the martial artist realm. It is impossible to naturally give birth to the innate powerhouse.
There is no doubt that the treasures and resources that can be born in a thousand worlds, even Cui Wenzi and his like are not necessary.
"Since Your Majesty has reached an agreement with the people of Xuantian Southern Territory, the empire cannot lose its trust."
"And as Your Majesty said, if the person who made the agreement with His Majesty is right, then this is indeed a great opportunity."
"Especially in the rumored black dragon secret realm in the southern region, as long as it can be obtained by the empire, the countless treasures and relics of the strong in the grand ancient battlefield will definitely increase the strength of the empire."
"Therefore, minister Shang Yang, agree with His Majesty's opinion, advance to Xuantian Continent ahead of time, and expand the empire's sphere of influence to the Middle Thousand Worlds!"
Above the court and the opposition, Shang Yang, the left minister of the empire, stepped forward and said that he immediately received the support of many civil and military officials, and they gave advice one after another, and even some important imperial officials followed closely, including the presidents of the two houses. I agree with what Shang Yang said.
"Your Majesty, I have different opinions!"
Seeing the change in the situation of the government and the opposition, and when even the ministers of the original silent faction were about to fall to the Shangjun, Du Yu, a doctor in the empire, spoke up.
Most of the ministers were about to agree, and the middle doctor Du Yu expressed his disapproval as soon as he opened his mouth to express his disapproval. Shang Yang looked at Du Yu, the middle doctor of the empire, with interest, who opposed his proposal. Ying Ji was also interested.
"Oh, Dr. Zhong rarely speaks very often. It can be said that it is difficult for Jin to speak. Why did he take the initiative to speak today?"
"I still object to Shang Jun's opinion. Does the doctor have any good ideas?"
"Above the court, you can speak freely without any scruples. If there is, please ask the doctor to speak freely, and I will listen carefully!"
Ying Ji said jokingly.
All the attention, obviously Du Yu did not expect that his casual remarks would have such an effect, and he said quickly.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to His Majesty's words, there are endless obstacles, and the empire does have certain timing and geographical conditions to expand its sphere of influence to the southern region of Xuantian."
"But Your Majesty also said that when the Black Dragon Secret Realm in the Luoyun Mountains is opened, it is difficult for thousands of forces to gather in the mountains, with hundreds of thousands of people."
"The forces are intricate and intertwined, and the strong come out in large numbers, and the whole body is affected by a single stroke!"
"If I take the liberty to attack the Xuantian Continent, I feel that once the expected effect will not be obtained, it will make many forces in the southern region that were not on guard alert, and even attack the forces infiltrated by the empire!"
"The enemy's paralyzed state will also be completely dissipated. At that time, the gains will outweigh the losses. It will be difficult to attack the Xuantian Continent in the future. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"
Hearing the words of the Chinese doctor, Du Yu, Manchu Wenwu only reacted.
It turned out that Doctor Zhong did not agree with the invasion of Xuantian World, but believed that now was not the best time and should be dormant for a while.
After all, the level of the Thousand Worlds in Xuantian Continent is still a little too high in the minds of many people, and it is not a good thing to invade such a high-level world now.
"Your Majesty, I feel that Du Yu's words are reasonable!"
...
"Yes, Your Majesty, this time is indeed not the time to invade the Xuantian Continent. Hundreds of thousands of people, thousands of forces, the strong do not know the ordinary, and it is still a bit too reluctant to compete with the current imperial power."
Du Yu's convincing remarks also aroused the approval of some imperial officials. Some imperial officials who were originally neutral and wavering also turned to Du Yu's side and agreed with Du Yu's ideas.
Among them, there is actually the minister of the Ministry of Water, Gongshuban, an important minister of the empire, and the minister of the Ministry of Wood, Sun Simiao.
On one side, the Manchu civil and military suddenly divided into two factions. One faction was the Early War faction represented by important imperial officials such as Shang Yang, Wei Ran, Sun Wu, and Jiang Shang, and the other was the middle-aged doctor Du Yu, Sun Simiao, Gongshuban and other important imperial officials. Representing the Late War faction.
Although they are both main fighting factions, the two factions have different ideas. The distinction between civil and military is not serious, but their thinking is very different.
Although the Du Yu faction is still in a weak position in general, it also has some capital and confidence to talk to the early war faction, and there is a faint trend of rivalry.
Looking at this scene, Ying Ji also felt a headache.
"Sure enough, no matter which dynasty you are in, there will always be factional disputes. People will have selfishness, and even empires are not exempt."
However, although Ying Ji felt a headache, she had no idea of stopping.
Because Ying Ji deeply knows a truth, only competition will bring pressure, and pressure will bring motivation.
Although Ying Ji disdain'd the ancient emperor's way of controlling the balance, but this kind of necessary competition between the court and the opposition is still necessary, and it would be too boring to do everything in a friendly manner.
For a country, this kind of healthy competition will not make the empire backward, but will promote progress, and often even bring some unexpected surprises.
Anyway, Ying Ji has enough means and confidence to grasp the direction of the imperial court and opposition, so as not to allow it to deviate, let alone allow the occurrence of vicious competition.
And this situation is exactly what Ying Ji is happy to see.
