"Since King Zhao of Yan, Yan State has not expanded its territory for China for a long time."

Yan Yan said slowly, placing emphasis on the word "Huaxia".

As an old official in the court, it was impossible for Yan Chunjun not to understand what Yan Yan meant.

Why was the sea chart given to Wei Ju instead of directly to the State of Yan?
In addition to the fact that Wei Ju's navy was the only fleet in the world that could sail across the sea, it was also telling the State of Yan that Yingzhou was given to them by Bingzhou and the State of Qin, and was not something they conquered themselves.

They were always under the surveillance of Bingzhou and Qin.

If Yan still wants to subvert the orthodoxy of China, then Wei Ju's navy can sail across the sea and take back everything.

Thunder, rain and dew are all your grace!
What is given to you is yours, and if it is not given to you, don’t even think about asking for it.

The unity of all the Xia people is the bottom line of Bingzhou.

"Control of the sea!" Yan Chunjun sighed.

Without control of the sea, no matter how well Yan State developed in Yingzhou, it would be difficult for it to return to the Central Plains of China, and it would always be under the surveillance of the navy.

Even without the intervention of Bingzhou and Qin, Wei Ju's navy could control the entire Yingzhou.

Yingzhou was the last dignity and tenderness that Bingzhou gave to Yan State.

How to choose depends on Yan State itself.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Chunjun sighed, the situation was stronger than the person.

Now the State of Yan may not have to take this path, but it cannot leave itself a way out.

"Knowing small etiquette but not great righteousness, being particular about small matters but not great virtue, attaching importance to small matters but neglecting integrity and shame, being afraid of power but not cherishing virtue, the strong will surely rob and invade, and the weak will surely be submissive."

Yan Yan continued, this was the evaluation of the later Japan in the "Zizhi Tongjian" of later generations.

He also used it to threaten Yan Chunjun and the State of Yan.

"Why must the Emperor insult the Yan State like this!"

Yan Chunjun understood what Yan Yan said, but was very angry.

No matter how bad the State of Yan was, it still possessed the most orthodox bloodline of the emperor.

Who can bear to be provoked by the words they use to mock the barbarians?

It's just a matter of pointing at their noses and telling them to learn about propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame.

If this wasn't Bingzhou, he wouldn't be able to defeat Yan Yan, and Yan Chunjun even wanted to draw his sword.

"I am just reminding the Yan State to always remember whose blood is flowing in your body!"

Yan Yan knew that what he said was very serious to Yan Guo and Yan Chunjun, but he had to be on guard.

Although Yan Chunjun and Xu Fu are different.

"We will conquer Jizi Joseon within three years!"

Yan Chunjun said while suppressing his anger.

If they did not want Wei Ju to control the sea power, or if they wanted to sail across the sea and reach Yingzhou Island with their own abilities, then occupying Jizi Korea was the best way.

Once they occupied Gojoseon, they would be able to extend their strategic depth even if facing an attack from the Qin army.

If the Qin army was held up by them, they might not need to sail across the sea, and they would still have a chance to continue to occupy the northeast of China.

If one can stay in mainland China, who would be willing to leave their homeland and sail to another place?

If they cannot hold back the Qin State, they still have a way to retreat to Yingzhou and wait until the Qin State weakens before returning to China.

Yan Yan also knew what Yan Chunjun meant.

There's nothing wrong with that.

If mainland China is so weak that it cannot even defeat an island nation, then what if Yan returns to China and becomes the monarch of China?

At least what China emphasizes is that kings, princes, generals and ministers should have courage!

But the beast who lived a good life in the future could only defeat the superior. Those who learn from me will live, and those who imitate me will die.

They live a good life and copy almost everything from others. There is also a group of villains talking about the spirit of craftsmanship of a great country and that they are the most studious nation.

Yan Yan just wanted to say one thing, the attempt to draw a tiger ended up drawing a dog!
If you learn everything from others and copy others without having your own backbone, no matter how strong you are, you will be just a rabbit's tail and it will not grow long.

When faced with the same Western powers, China wanted to learn from the West and apply it in the East, while that beast just wanted to copy and use it.

Then you only learn half of everything and can't integrate it into your own life.

If one fears power but does not cherish virtue, the strong will surely steal and invade, and the weak will surely be submissive.

This is the most realistic portrayal of daily life.

I learned from China, but I only learned half of it. I forgot that some things cannot be lost. Once the spine is bent, it is difficult to straighten it again.

No matter how much the Demon Queen is criticized, there is one thing that is worthy of recognition, that is, no matter how weak Yao Qing is, she dares to declare war on the powers!

China has a history of 5,000 years, which is divided into six volumes, two of which are modern times. The shame will never be forgotten.

Facing the great powers and powerful enemies, no matter how chaotic or weak China was, it never thought of surrendering. There would always be people who stood up and said, "We would rather the whole country be reduced to scorched earth than surrender, and we will respond to the invaders with drastic measures."

Then, the great powers were driven away, and China once again stood on top of the world. Facing the powerful countries, even though the new China was still very weak, they thought of many ways, but never thought of surrendering.

Once your spine is broken, it is very difficult to straighten it again.

If you are not independent and self-reliant, you would rather die!
"This is the sword that a great Confucian scholar sent to me in Bingzhou before his death!"

Yan Yan took down a hanging bronze sword from above the hall.

The sword has lost its former metallic luster and is covered with rust, but the occasional gleam of light beneath the rust is still cold and intimidating.

"Since I got this sword, I have never forgotten the teachings of my predecessors."

"The elder used this sword to remind me and Bingzhou that we are always members of the Chinese nation, and we are not barbarians when we enter the grasslands."

"This sword is called 'Zhaodan' and was forged by Emperor Wuding of the Shang Dynasty."

The Zhaodan Sword was taken away, and all the officials in Bingzhou stood up and saluted.

At that time, the great scholar who did not want to reveal his name had someone send this sword, and Yan Yan personally hung it on the school administration hall, also to remind everyone to remember their identity and origin.

You can shine the light on your liver and gallbladder, so that everyone can remember whose blood flows in their bodies.

Therefore, it was the consensus in Bingzhou that the war would not be directed southward.

"Now, I will give this sword to Yingzhou!" Yan Yan solemnly handed the Zhaodan Sword to Yan Chunjun.

Yan Chunjun looked at the rusty ancient sword, his body trembled, he straightened his clothes, and solemnly took the sword with both hands.

"Yan State will not forget!" Yan Chunjun promised.

He knew the name of the Zhaodan Sword and also knew its meaning.

Many people were looking for this famous sword, but no one expected that the sword was actually hanging above the Bingzhou School Hall.

It was also a gift from a great Confucian scholar before his death to warn Bingzhou.

To illuminate the gallbladder means to illuminate the five internal organs.

Yan Yan nodded and handed the Zhaodan Sword heavily to Yan Chunjun.

Bingzhou has the Bingzhou Ding and the Xuanwu flag, and the Zhaodan Sword has also completed its mission. It is now handed over to Yan Chunjun and transferred to Yingzhou to continue its mission.

"No one wants to sharpen the sword!"

Yan Yan reminded again.

The Zhaodan Sword is different from other famous swords. Other famous swords are covered in dust and rust, but the Zhaodan Sword is completely different. Once it is sharpened, a monster that will bring disaster to the country will be born.

Therefore, no one wants to sharpen the sword.
