The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1133 Although I don't understand, my eyes are firm [Please subscribe*Please vote]

Bingzhou will not allow an empire as powerful as the Kushan Empire to appear again in the grasslands and Central Asia, so it is better for the Great Yuezhi to stay away from it.

The survival rules of the Asian Monster House are:
Huaxia > Xiongnu > Dayuezhi > Western Regions > Central Asia > Western city-states.

Now Bingzhou has annexed the Xiongnu, Donghu, and the thirty-six kingdoms of the Western Regions, and driven away the Dayuezhi. So even if the Xiongnu is gone, the Kushan may not exist.

Since the Kushans were able to drive Bactria to invade Kongque and destroy the Maurya Dynasty, there is no reason why Bingzhou, as the suzerain state of Bactria, could not do it!
"Your Majesty, are you planning to send troops to help us drive out the Dayuezhi and rebuild our home?" The King of Daxia was excited.

Even at the height of their power, the Great Yuezhi were beaten into a helpless state by the newly established Bingzhou. Now, it is impossible for them to be a match for Bingzhou.

As long as Bingzhou is willing to help, the Great Xia Kingdom can be rebuilt and rise again.

"No, no, no!" Yan Yan shook his head.

"Bingzhou's rule is not to support idle people, and it will not actively bully or give special care to any country."

"There is an old Chinese saying that goes, 'A blacksmith must be strong himself!'"

"Even though Daxia was protected by the Western Regions Protectorate, it was still bullied by the Great Yuezhi and invaded the capital. Have you ever thought about your own problems?"

"Even if I can save the king and help Daxia once this time, what about next time?"

"Bingzhou is the suzerain state of all the countries, not their thugs and guards."

Yan Yan spoke bit by bit.

"But, we paid tribute and pledged our loyalty?!" The King of Daxia felt incredible.

I pay tribute and pledge my loyalty. As the suzerain, isn't it your duty to send troops to protect me?

"Yes, it is correct to pay tribute, pledge loyalty, and then I will protect Daxia, but the king should think clearly. Daxia is Daxia, and the king is the king!"

Yan Yan looked at the King of Da Xia and said seriously.

Few people who can become the ruler of a country are fools, so the King of Daxia immediately understood it.

Bingzhou needs a capable and wise monarch of Daxia, not an incompetent person who keeps asking for help.

In other words, Daxia is the Daxia of Bingzhou, but the king of Daxia can be anyone!

Bingzhou hopes that a capable, intelligent and less troublesome person will be the king of Daxia.

His ability prevents him from asking Bingzhou for help in everything, and his intelligence prevents him from betraying Bingzhou.

Bingzhou can send troops to help Daxia this time, but if he does not show any performance or implement any policies, Bingzhou has plenty of means to replace him with someone who can control Daxia to be the king of Daxia.

"This is the only time. When I return, I will work hard to govern the country, prepare my troops, and never let the Dayuezhi invade again, so as to reduce the troubles for the empire!" the King of Daxia promised.

Yan Yan shook his head. With Daxia's territory and population, there was no way they could be a match for Dayuezhi. It was useless to say anything like that.

"I will send troops to drive away the Great Yuezhi and recover Daxia at the same time, but what should the king do?"

"Ah?" The King of Da Xia was confused. Was he not going to return Da Xia to him?

"Daxia can never be a match for Dayuezhi with only its existing land and population, nor can it always rely on Bingzhou for help!"

"In the final analysis, it still comes down to the old saying: a blacksmith must be strong himself!"

Yan Yan looked at the ruler of Da Xia. He was not sure which ruler of Da Xia would defeat Peacock in the future, but he didn't mind adding fuel to the fire and lending a hand.

As long as the ruler of Daxia is not stupid, he should know that there is no territory for Daxia to expand in the entire Western Regions, especially since Dayuan is to the east of Daxia and Dayuezhi is to the northwest. The only way for Daxia to expand is to go south to the Maurya Dynasty.

"But King Ashoka is more terrifying than the King of Yuezhi and the King of Dayuan!" The King of Daxia said with a sad face.

Others may not know about the Maurya Empire or Ashoka, but as a neighboring country of the Maurya Empire, how could Bactria not know about it?

Instead of letting Daxia deal with Peacock, he might as well fight to the death with Dayuezhi and Dayuan!

"No, no, no!" Yan Yan shook his head again to deny the words of the King of Great Xia.

"The Maurya Dynasty looks very strong, stronger than Dayuan and Dayuezhi combined, but it's just a facade!"

"In terms of comprehensive national strength and the number of troops, Dayuan and Dayuezhi combined cannot compare to the Maurya Empire."

Yan Yan analyzed it bit by bit.

"Yes, then Your Majesty wants me to cause trouble for King Ashoka!" The King of Bactria cried.

"But Ashoka is going to die. As the great ruler of the Maurya Empire, he unified the Maurya Empire but also offended too many people. Once Ashoka dies, the entire Maurya Empire will inevitably fall into civil strife!"

"Ah?" The ruler of Daxia was confused. He didn't understand why a newly unified dynasty would fall apart because of the death of its monarch.

If this is the case, then the death of Your Majesty and the Emperor of Qin, does it mean that Bingzhou and Qin will also collapse?

"You don't need to understand these things. You don't understand them even if you say so. You just need to know that when Ashoka died, Maurya collapsed instantly and started fighting among itself."

"By then, even if Peacock has a national strength of 10, he can only exert 20-80% of his national strength, and even the other 90-% will help you kill the remaining % or %!"

Yan Yan said affirmatively.

This is the disadvantage of the city-state system, each city has its own jurisdiction and local autonomy!
Ashoka wanted to centralize power, but the city-state leaders disagreed!

We are all Brahmins and Kshatriyas, why should we listen to you?

Your God is stronger than my God? Do you think you are Brahma or Shiva?
Therefore, if you want to lead me, don’t blame me for colluding with foreign races and killing you!

The most crucial point is that Ashoka was a peacock breeder!

The identity of raising a peacock is actually very special. You can say that he is a servant of God, then you are a Brahmin; or you can say that you are not even a Vaisya, but just the lowest level Shudra!
During the reign of Ashoka, all the Brahmins who could be suppressed were forced to acknowledge him as a Brahmin. However, once the rulers of the major city-states no longer wanted to be ruled by the Maurya Empire, the only ones who could raise peacocks were the Shudras!
"Ah this?" The King of Da Xia was even more confused.

"I'll do it!" The King of Daxia quickly nodded in agreement.

He couldn't understand all these twists and turns, nor did he understand what Yan Yan said.

But he knew that Bingzhou wanted him to get the peacock, and His Majesty wanted him to kill the peacock!

Then he can just do it. Your Majesty and Bingzhou will not treat any of their own people unfairly, just like the Wutan Kingdom back then!

The former Wutan Kingdom was almost destroyed, but what about now?

Today, Wutan is the leader in the entire Western Regions in terms of military, population, and economy, second only to Dayuan and Wusun!
Even the Great Yuezhi now only dared to watch the Wusun from afar and did not dare to provoke them at all.

This is the result of following Bingzhou.

Therefore, he does not need to understand, does not need to know too much, he just needs to follow Bingzhou honestly and serve as Bingzhou's dog and knife. Then Daxia is the strongest mastiff and the sharpest and toughest knife!

"No regrets?" Yan Yan was puzzled as the Great Xia King clearly didn't understand anything, but his eyes were so determined.
