Chapter 673: Complex situation

The sandalwood in the study is lingering, refreshing and refreshing.
Xiao Ming got up and walked to the western wall of the study, looking at the map in front of him.
The map in front of him obscured the entire west wall of the study. It was a huge world map, marking all the countries he knew in the current world.
"Two counties in the south?" Xiao Ming looked at the map. After Goryeo declared to the barbarians, it seemed that in order to show the determination to separate the relations with the Great Yu Kingdom, the king of Goryeo changed the state capital of the country to a county.
The so-called southern two counties are just the former Wuju and Jeonju. According to the contemporary division, they are Jeollanam-do and Jeollabukdo in South Korea, which belong to the two counties close to Wa.
"Goryeo is mountainous, and most of the Japanese countries use the captured cities as their bases to fight against the barbarians. This prevents the barbarians from taking advantage of the cavalry. It has been around for several months. In addition, Beishan has no intention of fighting against the Japanese country. Now this complicated situation has emerged. "Wang Xuan frowned.
"It's this Beishan again!" Xiao Ming snorted softly, "Even if he is sent to Goryeo, he is still immortal."
"The emperor, Bei Shan has always had grudges, and the barbarians are very wary of the emperor's unification of the north, so they are eager to draw troops from Goryeo to deal with the emperor."
Xiao Ming nodded, "I originally hoped that the Japanese nation could keep the barbarians in Goryeo, so that they would suffer both defeats. I never thought that Bei Shan was also a wise man, but since the Japanese and the barbarians are willing to reconcile, we can leave me time. Not much."
"Indeed, the Wa country occupied Goryeo Wu County and the whole county, which is equivalent to taking root in Goryeo. The ambition of the Wa country is no longer small. This is a threat to the Great Yu country itself, not to mention a barbarian. If the barbarians are stubborn, the country of Da Yu is dangerous."
Wang Xuan's words were not alarmist. The barbarians and the Japanese countries obviously have common interests. This interest is to carve up the Great Yu Kingdom.
It's just that now because of Korea's reasons, the two are incompatible. If one day they find that they can't deal with the Great Yu country alone, they will inevitably form an alliance.
Although the history of the three countries in time and space is the same as before, the history of 1,500 years since then has completely changed.
For Xiao Ming, it is difficult for him to draw lessons from contemporary history, because the countries he faces are all unfamiliar, and he cannot use his old experience to deal with it.
In addition, his arrival has once again affected the course of history, and it is possible for him no matter what happens now.
Because countries and people adjust their survival strategies according to the environment, the environment in East Asia has changed. This is the butterfly wing of history.
"So this war in the north should have ended sooner." Xiao Ming squeezed his fist. Now that his entire army is pressing, he doesn't believe King Zhao can withstand it.
After a pause, he asked again: "Are there other important information besides this?"
"There is also the King of Chu. Now the King of Chu and the French are cooperating more and more closely. In addition to selling firearms to King Chu at high prices, the French also reportedly sent a hundred missionaries to Lin'an. According to the information received by the lower officials, This missionary is just a craftsman in disguise, and the King of Chu also sent some noble children to France to study."
Wang Xuan’s words made Xiao Ming’s heart sink. The many actions of the king of Chu now show that he is ready to learn from the West. After being beaten by the Dutch and facing his constant threats, the king of Chu now seems to have grasped the last straw of the French. .
"Focus on King Chu." Xiao Ming said in a deep voice, "No matter how the King Chu is struggling now, everything he has worked so hard to build will be mine."
The cooperation between King Chu and the French will undoubtedly make it more difficult for him to attack the Kingdom of Chu, but he is confident that his progress will be faster than King Chu.
In terms of science and technology, the French cannot save the King of Chu. After all, the West is only a country whose overall industrial level is much higher than him, and there is no advantage in specific technology.
Although Xiao Ming also wanted to stifle the threat of King Chu in time, the new movements of the Barbarian and the Japanese made him immediately have no time to take care of the King of Chu south of the Yangtze River.
King Zhao has not yet come down, and the threat of the barbarians is coming. It is not a wise move to go south now, and the cost of the war in the North is huge, and ammunition supply has gradually become a problem. At the same time, the city under the attack also needs to be taken over and operated, which is even more restrictive. His hands and feet.
"Yes, the emperor!" Wang Xuan bowed.
The two also talked about things in different places. At this time, Wang Xuan chose to leave. Just as he walked on his front foot, Li San walked in with his hind foot.
"The emperor." Seeing Xiao Ming, Li San saluted.
After performing the mission of the four princes last time, Li San returned to Qingzhou to oversee domestic affairs.
Sitting down in the chair, Xiao Ming reviewed the memorial again and said, "You and Wang Xuan are in a tacit understanding. Let's talk, what's the matter?"
Li San chuckled twice, and he said: "The emperor is so kind to the lower officials, the lower officials can never lose to Wang Xuan."
"Hmph, you just used this mouth to show off." Xiao Ming didn't look up.
Li San was still smiling, Xiao Ming now betrothed Liuli to him, and the empress dowager took Liuli as a righteous daughter. He is now in Qingzhou for a while.
But for the topic, Li San's face became serious, and he said to Xiao Ming: "I wonder if the emperor knows a school called the Fa Society?"
"The Fa Academy?" Xiao Ming's movements froze for a while. Because of the experience of later generations, he has always been sensitive to this kind of things. "What does this Fa Academy do?"
Seeing that Xiao Ming didn’t understand this at all, Li San said:
This Law Society was founded by a student named Miao Guoan of Bowen College. This Miao Guoan used to study in the School of Political Affairs in Bowen College and has always respected legalists. The classics, this law society is also the revitalization of legalism.
"Miao Guoan." The name Xiao Ming is somewhat familiar, he said; "Pang Shoufu mentioned this person's name with me~EbookFREE.me~ Li San continued: "That's right, this Fa Academy is correct. It was established with the support of Pang Shoufu. "
Whether it is Confucianism or Legalism, this is a method used by rulers to govern the world. In the contemporary period from the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the respect is Confucianism within the law.
As the name implies, this Confucianism within and outside the law respects Confucianism on the surface, but it also relies on the ideas of Legalism in practice.
However, the legalist thought here is definitely not that the gentleman commits the same crime with the common people, but regards the monarch as the law. The monarch is the core of everything. The words the monarch speaks are the law. The essence of the rule of law is to obey the monarch’s instructions. This is the internal law and external Confucianism. The true meaning of.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ming said: "Do you think of a way to put an eyeliner in and see what law the Fa Academy actually promotes?"
For him, it would be acceptable if the Law Society wanted to strengthen his rights, because it was a safeguard of the imperial power.
If this Fa Academy came up with a moth or a Western one, he would have to intervene.
