Chapter 2417 Your Brother Wants to Establish a Country
Jiang Fan also expressed some emotion: "The journey along the way has been like a dream. Over the past month or so, I have also been a little shocked. Unknowingly, I have gained such great power. But if you think about it, compared to you seven years ago, We have accomplished so much in just one year, but there is still a lot to go.”
The empress shook her head: "I have the Qin Dynasty as my foundation, and my ancestors have worked hard for generations. In your words, I am standing on the shoulders of my ancestors. You are stronger than me."
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "Okay, we don't need to flatter each other anymore. Regarding this Yuzhou Alliance, I have to explain the situation clearly to you first, just like you asked Lao Shuai and the others to express their stance to me."
While drinking tea, he described the process simply but clearly.
During the whole process, the empress did not interrupt. But the twitching eyebrows from time to time and the shining eyes from time to time showed that she was very uneasy inside.
Although she had never underestimated this young gentleman, she still couldn't help but be shocked by Jiang Fan's astonishing power displayed by Yihui Yimeng.
It’s really hard to imagine how he could do all this in just eight years.
Among them, the most unexpected one is that Ying Wuming takes over the South Heavenly King, and the most unimaginable one is the Taibai Hu family taking over the North Heavenly King.
"...Husband...you once again shocked me speechless, more than ever..."
Looking at the empress's expression, Jiang Fan actually felt a little proud in his heart. After all, it is not easy to make her like this.
But the empress is an empress after all. After the shock, she immediately returned to how to use these powers.
The two discussed for a long time, and finally decided to follow the previous general strategy: Qin would take the lead, and Jiang Fan would support it. For now, Jiang Fan's forces are on hold and will be activated as the situation changes or as needed.
"The biggest advantage of these forces is that they are lurking in the dark and distributed in the five countries and three frontiers. Once activated at the critical moment, they will definitely play a major role and even be enough to change the situation of the war."
Jiang Fan nodded: "You are right. If they go out to fight openly, their effect will be limited. Only by taking things by surprise can they show the greatest effect. So, thinking about it now, it was right for us to decide not to be relegated to the Lishan system for the time being."
"Now, what you need to do most is to make full use of time to complete the final consolidation of these forces, so that when called upon to fight, the battle can be won."
"Well, haste is always a big problem. Many people are still confused and shocked by my move. However, these problems are not big. With Zhang Zaifu and the others, I think it is just a matter of time. You might as well ask Gu Siyuan to contact Zhang Zaifu, for future connection.”
The empress thought for a moment, but suddenly shook her head: "No, it's not yet time. Da Qin is always a frontal battlefield, so you can't be overly dependent. Moreover, the greatest value of your power lies in surprise, and you can do many things that are inconvenient to do in a frontal battlefield. So, don’t expose it for now.”
Jiang Fan thought for a while: "That's fine, but I'm not that good at marching, fighting and timing. Once we're at a critical point, you have to remind me."
The empress looked at him with a strange look: "You're not good at it? You're second in the Young Dragon Ranking. You've never lost on paper, and you've never lost in battle. Why should you be so humble?"
Jiang Fan waved his hands repeatedly: "One or two small-scale matches can't explain anything. In short, this aspect is really not my strength."
The empress smiled slightly, "You, you always have no confidence in yourself for no reason. If nothing else, these twelve cities in Yuzhou are a wonderful layout. Do you know how important this move is to the strategy of Great Qin?"
Jiang Fan smiled: "I just wanted to build a supernumerary line of defense. As for the twelve cities, that is indeed the work of my disciples. To be honest, I am also surprised."
The empress also sighed: "The students from Lishan Academy are indeed extraordinary. For more than three years, one person per city, so sandwiched between Qin and Wei, your half-father-in-law is very uncomfortable."
Jiang Fan laughed: "If he has no ambition, there is no need to feel uncomfortable."
The empress looked at him: "Do you believe it? Since Wei Wu, Wei State has been strengthening its troops, recruiting talents, and stationing troops to accumulate food. Don't tell me, he just wants to protect his own family."
Jiang Fan sighed: "Yes...but I don't want Qin and Wei to take the lead in starting a war."
The empress shook her head slightly: "Yuzhou... does play a certain buffering role, but in Cao A Chou's eyes, it is indeed a double threat. It is the pressure you put on him."
Jiang Fan lowered his eyes: "Different positions will inevitably lead to inconsistent views on issues..."
The empress smiled faintly and reached out to touch his cheek: "Lang Jun, I understand your thoughts. You want to delay time and finally start a war with Wei, hoping to find a solution in the process. But... it doesn't exist. , you understand better than me."
Jiang Fan stroked her hand and didn't speak for a long time.
The empress said: "Yuzhou is the most difficult barrier for King Wei, and it is also a huge variable. He must be deliberately trying to destroy it. You must know it in your heart."
Jiang Fan nodded, feeling a little complicated.
The empress seemed to understand his mental confusion and changed the subject with a gentle smile: "Just now you said that there is a very important event that you must know about. What is it?"
Jiang Fan looked a little weird, "This is really unexpected, don't be surprised."
The empress was a little surprised: "So solemn, it seems that this matter is not trivial."
Jiang Fan took a deep breath: "Well...this matter comes from your brother, my brother-in-law."
The empress was stunned for a moment: "Wu Ming? He won't get together with Wu Tian again, right?"
Jiang Fan shook his head: "That's not true, but it's a hundred times more amazing than this... He... wants to found a country!"
As soon as this sentence came out, even the empress was stunned.
After a while, she was a little embarrassed and said: "Establish a country?"
"Well... in southern Xinjiang, establish the Dian Kingdom."
When Jiang Fan finished speaking, the empress was surprised. Not only was she not overly surprised, she just chuckled and clapped her hands: "Good Wuming, this is like him."
Jiang Fan was a little surprised: "You are not surprised?"
The empress shook her head: "What are you surprised about? When you grow up, you have to be strong. I was a little surprised when you sent him to southern Xinjiang, but later I gradually understood what you did in southern Xinjiang. I realized that you had planned to govern southern Xinjiang. It was only a matter of time for Wuming to get to this point with your guidance."
Jiang Fan scratched his head: "I want to tell you, I really didn't think so far back then, do you believe it?"
"You are that kind of person, I believe, but you have this awareness, sooner or later you will promote the occurrence of this matter. The only thing that makes me admire is that you really did it, building a country without a name, great good!"
Jiang Fan sighed: "It's good that you recognize it, I'm still afraid..."
"Haha, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will raise an army to beat him?" The empress laughed and said: "He is not a child anymore, it is not easy to beat him, not to mention that this kid is doing this thing that I like very much."
"So, you also understand that he took over my throne of the Southern Sky, in fact, it is a cooperative relationship."
