Reborn Daughter Bad

Chapter 594 Pros and Cons of War
After Yan Qing left, Emperor Dongyue carefully looked at the map. He had studied the geographical location and advantages and disadvantages of Beiming, but he was not very clear about how to get it.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, the joy just now had dissipated, and now he needs to think quietly.

If this map is real, then the war between Dongyue and Beiming can be put on the agenda, but if...

"Come here." The emperor didn't know what to think of, and called people in.

Immediately, his personal eunuch walked in.

"What is the emperor's order?"

Emperor Dongyue raised his head, took out a bamboo tube from his right hand, and rolled the map into it.

"You give this map to General Huwei quickly." He handed the bamboo tube in his hand to his personal eunuch and said.

"Yes." With just one sentence, the eunuch knew what Emperor Dongyue meant.

"Does the emperor have anything to tell the general?" He rolled his eyes quickly and said.

"Just tell him and let him see it." The emperor frowned.

"Yes." After receiving the order, the eunuch quickly went down to prepare.

As a result, there was only Emperor Dongyue in the hall again.

His eyes were fixed on the memorial on the table, but his thoughts had already flown into the distance.

Situ Zhennan has been guarding the border between the two countries all year round, so he must be more familiar with Beiming than ordinary Dongyue people, and there are also remote towns in the map. Presumably, the map is true or not, and the answer will be obtained soon.

Thinking of this, the emperor became less impatient. He picked up the cinnabar pen again, opened the memorial with his hand, and began to review it one by one.

A few days later the frontier camp
"General, the emperor has a letter." The civil servant in charge of delivering the order hurried into the camp with a bamboo tube in his hand.

At this time, Situ Zhennan was resting.

"General!" The civil servant in charge of transmitting the order saw that his general was dozing off at this time, and he was very anxious in his heart, so he let out a long cry.

"Beijing is thousands of miles away from our place, what orders can come from here?" Situ Zhennan opened his sleepy eyes and looked at the messenger.

Although the world is now rumoring that Dongyue and Beiming are about to go to war, as a soldier guarding the frontier, Situ Zhennan has not received any orders.

But despite thinking this way, he still took the bamboo tube respectfully, took it apart, and looked at it.

Seeing this, his face changed drastically.

"Get out!" He held the message tightly in his hand.

"Yes." The herald felt a little puzzled, but still retreated.

At this time, a person walked in with a very respectful expression.

Situ Zhennan immediately covered the document in his hand, and looked at the man with sharp eyes.

"Don't panic, general. This time I went to the frontier, I was ordered by the emperor to tell the general that since the item has been obtained, I ask the general to carefully analyze the pros and cons of it."

After finishing speaking, the man looked at Situ Zhennan with a slightly subtle expression, but he backed out immediately.

so...

He immediately withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the things in his hands.

If he read it correctly, the document sent by the emperor should be the map of Beiming.

The emperor was right. No one like him who is stationed on the frontier is more familiar with the local terrain. Although the map in his hand is not complete, it is generally readable.

and……

Situ Zhennan couldn't help squinting his eyes. On this map, the most detailed ones are Jiangnan and the capital.

Compared with Dongyue, Beiming is obviously very rich. Jiangnan is a fertile and treasured land in the world, and it is also called Beiming's granary. The map sent by the emperor this time actually has a topographic map of this place...

"It seems that the emperor really has this idea." Situ Zhennan has been stationed on the frontier for a long time. If the two countries really want to go to war, no one will know before him. I don't know half a point.

Moreover, His Royal Highness is still there.

He remembered what that person had just said. It seems that the most important thing for the emperor to send the map is to verify the authenticity of the map.

But at this time, he was able to clearly know that this map was indeed real.

Although some places are very sloppy and there is only a general road condition, but others can be matched with what he knows.And in some places, he didn't even know there was such a thing.

but……

Holding this map at the moment, Situ Zhennan felt very complicated.

He can probably guess what the emperor is thinking. If this map is sent back and told to the emperor that it is true, then the officials should prepare money to support this big battle.

Although Dongyue has stationed a large number of troops in recent years, the military expenditure is already a considerable sum, and the tax rate levied every year is increasing year by year.

If this battle really breaks out, their people will be the first to bear the brunt. In order to buy weapons, medicinal materials and food, the imperial court can only exploit the people layer by layer. There is no one to cultivate the fields of the people, so they can only think of some ways. make ends meet.If this kind of exploitation continues, I'm afraid that one day it will arouse public resentment. At that time, Beiming will not be taken down, but it will be messed up, and Dongyue will fall into a situation of eternal doom!
But if the war can be won, the result will be very different.They conquered Beiming and got the most affluent Jiangnan. Then Dongyue will not worry about food for at least ten years, and the burden of the people will be reduced. They will live and work in peace and recuperation for at least ten years, and after that, they will no longer worry about it. Food is gone.

But the problem is here at this moment, the difference between winning and losing is a world of difference.

If the war fails, not only will they lose popular support, they will be overwhelmed at home, and they will also be hit by Beiming abroad.This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for Dongyue.

Besides, by that time, the entire Dongyue might be frozen to death on the road.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help frowning, and the frown deepened. He rested his forehead with one hand and held the map in the other.

The newly appointed emperor of Beiming was not so easy to mess with. Moreover, the prince was still in his hands, so his safety could not be guaranteed.

At that time, as long as there is a little change on their side, there is no guarantee that the Emperor Beiming will not kill His Royal Highness in order to appease the morale of the army and the people.

The emperor is smart and wise, so he will not be ignorant of this, but he already has this thought at this moment, so...

He just thought about it and sat all night.
