After I Was Pushed Back by the School Beauty

Chapter 1418 Huge Military Expenditure

"Sir, what do you think this king should do now? Take advantage of the victory to pursue and devour the Fengling Empire's army in one fell swoop?" The Sixth King asked with a pleading tone.

Hearing this, Qin Tian was silent for a moment and said: "In order to fight against foreign aggression, we must first settle the internal affairs. Although the alliance leader is full of prestige and righteousness, the forces within the alliance have not yet been integrated. If we send troops hastily, it will cause inconvenience to the Fengling Empire. It’s a small blow, but it may not be a good thing for His Majesty. After all, there is a Sky Empire watching closely!”

The six kings nodded in agreement. Suddenly, something moved in his mind: "Why don't you, sir, take people to the Cangqiong Empire and short-sell their Qiong coins?"

Qin Tian shook his head: "Such a thing can only be done once. Today's Cangqiong Empire must have been on guard. It is simply impossible to make short Qiong coins. If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to try!"

The six kings who were poured cold water on him were not angry, but said with a smile: "Since sir said so, I will not send anyone. By the way, sir, I still lack a prime minister under my command. I wonder if you have one, sir?" Interested in serving?”

He has a deep understanding of Qin Tian's strategy, and its weight is much heavier than that of a Holy Emperor. Therefore, he desperately wants to recruit Qin Tian for his own use.

"Your Majesty's kindness is appreciated!" Qin Tian shook his head: "I really have no intention of becoming an official!"

"Well, I won't disturb you sir!"

The Sixth King's face darkened slightly, he stood up and left, but when he was about to go out, he suddenly turned around and said to Qin Tian: "Sir, you might as well think about it again!"

"Okay, Your Majesty!"

Qin Tian nodded, but secretly said in his heart, people, as long as they succeed, they will inevitably become arrogant. The Six Kings now have the qualifications to be arrogant. The words he added later seemed to be persuasion, but they were not a threat. ?

Originally, Qin Tian planned to leave after a while, but now it seems that he has to leave early.

A thought came to my mind.

The temple space overlaps with the city space.

As he expected, the Six Kings had people nearby to monitor him, and they were all the Holy Emperor Perfection who was proficient in lurking.

"Where to go?"

Qin Tian thought to himself.

Suddenly, he thought of the Fengling Empire.

Now Fengling Empire is in chaos.

The empire is busy quelling the chaos and should not notice him. With his current control over the temple, even the ordinary Holy Emperor cannot do anything to him.

"Let's go!"

With one step, Qin Tian stepped out of the city.

Then he continued to use the temple space to overlap with the real space, and his body shape also continued to move.

In less than a moment, he was far away from the city.

Three days later.

The Six Kings had arranged everything and were preparing to return to the Holy City to ascend the throne. He decided to meet Qin Tian again. If the other party recognized his interest, he would naturally entrust him with an important task. If the other party did not recognize his interest, he would have no choice but to kill him.

Such a person is too dangerous. The other party can easily plunge the Fengling Empire into civil strife with just one strategy. What if the other party uses a strategy to deal with the Holy Alliance in the future?

Since it can't be used by me, it can only be destroyed.

Arriving near Qin Tian's mansion, the Six Kings summoned the two Holy Emperors who were monitoring Qin Tian and asked, "Has there been any movement in the past few days?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, the other party has never left the house!"

A holy emperor.

"good!"

The six kings nodded, led people to the front of the mansion, and ordered people to knock on the formation.

No response.

Suddenly, the Six Kings had a bad feeling.

After knocking on the formation several times without getting any response, the Six Kings had a bad premonition and said coldly: "Break the formation!"

"puff!"

The formation of the mansion was easily broken, but the entire mansion became empty, not even the remaining breath.

"Damn it!"

The face of the Sixth King became extremely gloomy: "Search, even if I scratch the ground three feet, you still have to find the person!"

As a result, the entire mansion was demolished, and even the ground was dug up, but Qin Tian's breath was still not captured.

Subsequently, under the orders of the six kings, more than a dozen holy emperors searched in all directions with this city as the center. After finding the person, if the person was willing to come back, he could be spared his life. If not, he would be killed on the spot.

But he didn't know that Qin Tian had already entered the Fengling Empire at this moment.

Today's Fengling Empire is in chaos.

Especially after the news of Zhu Shou's death spread and nearly 40 million troops were wiped out, more and more forces have risen up.

Moreover, the more than 60 million troops who returned to the country almost went into an uproar after realizing that the Phoenix Coins had become useless, and tens of millions of them fled directly.

What soldiers do is to keep their heads high, but now, the military salary has become useless and they can't buy anything. They didn't work hard in vain.

Fortunately, Queen Lingzi responded promptly.

The holy crystals in the inner treasury were drawn out to pay the remaining 50 million-strong army, so that these soldiers could be retained. Otherwise, without these soldiers, the entire Fengling Empire would be destroyed.

The national treasury is the money of the entire empire, while the inner treasury is the money that belongs to the empress herself.

Inside the palace.

Empress Lingzi's face was full of exhaustion. She never imagined how the empire could become so bad in such a short period of time.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister wants to see you!"

Suddenly, the guard preached.

"pass!"

Lingzi said lightly.

Soon, the Prime Minister came in. Seeing the haggard empress, he couldn't help but feel guilty: "Your Majesty, this is the latest information!"

Ling Zi waved her hand, and after reading the first piece of information, she breathed a sigh of relief. The remaining 50 million elite troops were stabilized. However, this time, one-third of the Saint Crystals in her inner treasury were withdrawn for the military pay. In other words, the Saint Crystals in her inner treasury were only enough to support the military pay for three years.

And the empire's taxes were all settled in Phoenix coins, which means that in the future, the empire will not have any income.

Therefore, the empire's expenses still have to be paid by her inner treasury.

Therefore, the Saint Crystals in her inner treasury cannot support three years.

Even a year cannot support it, so can the army complete the rebellion within a year?

Almost impossible.

After all, this rebellion was not in one or two states, but thousands of states rose up together. Even if one state was suppressed a day, three years would not be enough.

"Prime Minister, how is the Saint Crystal Mine?"

Collecting his thoughts, Ling Zi asked while looking through other information.

"Your Majesty, I have sent experts and heavy troops to guard all the Saint Crystal mines, and increased the mining speed!" said the Prime Minister.

"How many Saint Crystals can be provided every year?" the Empress asked again.

The Prime Minister reported: "According to my statistics, 12 billion Saint Crystals should be mined in the next three months. After three months, the speed can be maintained at 1.5 times, and after a year, it can be guaranteed to be doubled!"

Hearing this, the Empress fell into deep thought.

Nowadays, the annual military expenditure of the more than 50 million elite troops is more than 5 billion Saint Crystals.

In fact, this military expenditure is not much.

But the greater expenditure is the city guards in various places. Before the collapse of the Phoenix Coin, the military pay was provided by the local prefecture, but now, it needs to be allocated by the empire.

Generally speaking, the city guards of a county city are about 100,000, the county city is 50,000, and the state city is one million.

Fengling Empire has more than 9,300 states in total. Now more than half of them have fallen, but there are still more than 4,000 states whose city guards need to be paid by the empire. The total number of city guards in more than 4,000 states alone has reached more than 40 billion people. Even if a city guard only receives 10 Saint Crystals as military pay, it still needs to pay more than 400 billion Saint Crystals.

Not to mention the city guards in county towns and county towns.

Therefore, even if the Saint Crystal Mine produces 100 billion Saint Crystals per year, it cannot support the huge military expenditure. (To be continued)
