The most arrogant in history

Ye Shusheng smiled and said, "Father, in the past few years, I have met Brother Huang and Brother Shangguan a few times. They are in the north, very powerful, and their vanguard has already entered the Black Sea."

Huang Jingzu and Shangguan Lin clasped their fists together and said, "King Qin, you are too kind. Our opponents were nomadic peoples in the early stage with poor equipment. In the later stage, they were loose castle alliances, which were even more vulnerable.

The King of Qin destroyed the Roman Empire, which was an unprecedented achievement."

Another round of business promotion has begun.

Ye Kun smiled and said, "It's not easy for everyone. You brothers are all great."

In terms of difficulty, Huang Jingzu and Shangguan Lin are obviously more difficult.

One of them took the steppe route and headed for Europe;

One took the Western Region route and headed towards West Asia.

Very hard work.

It is also difficult to ensure supplies on the road.

Especially in the early stages, attacking nomadic peoples and running and chasing them on the grassland is like opening a blind box.

When Ye Kun personally led the expedition to the North Sea, he knew that nomadic peoples were the most difficult to deal with.

They have no fixed residence and you can't find their nest.

Once the fighting starts, he will run everywhere in the vast grassland of tens of millions of square kilometers and you will not be able to catch him at all!

If you follow him, you will get lost and often be ambushed!

In terms of weapons, the Chinese have an absolute advantage.

However, due to insufficient mobility and deployment capabilities, it is still difficult to eliminate the nomadic peoples in the face of the boundless and sea-like grasslands.

But Ye Shusheng is different.

Ye Shusheng did start his career as a teenager, but he took the sea route, going around the South China Sea, entering the Persian Gulf, and then continuing to develop and entering the Mediterranean.

Although the journey is long, the boat ride is not tiring.

Moreover, there are small port cities of China along the way, so there is no problem with supplies.

When it comes to fighting, it is easier for Ye Shusheng because he only attacks fixed castles and residential areas, which are basically easy to capture.

Ye Shusheng also realized this and said with a smile: "Brother Huang and Brother Shangguan, attacking the nomadic peoples on the prairie is much more difficult than mine. The roads they have traveled are more numerous and more difficult than the roads I have traveled."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "You youngsters, get acquainted with each other first, drink some wine, and chat. The formal alliance will be held the day after tomorrow. I still want to continue drinking with a few old brothers."

Ye Kun still doesn't understand the intentions of all parties.

You need to understand and communicate in advance.

If we hold a meeting directly, the several kings will refuse to give in to each other and will start arguing.

Ye Kun first found Qin Erwu and others to discuss the future ownership of the Persian Gulf.

This is an important channel and also an oil-producing area.

Ye Kun meant that the imperial court should directly govern and let Ye Feng’s son manage the Oil Peninsula, the Persian Gulf, and the Red Sea Strait.

The fiefs of Qin Erwu and others were limited to the inland of Persia.

Brothers Qin Erwu, Guan Yong and Jiang Laowu all had no objections.

Ye Kun summoned Shangguan Lin privately again.

Shangguan Lin was the son of Shangguan Jifu and the son-in-law of Ma Zhao.

Ye Kun, thinking of the sworn brotherhood between Shangguan Jifu and himself, also treated Shangguan Lin as his son.

Ye Kun said: "Lin'er, north of the Black Sea, there is a Ulan Plain, which is the most important granary of the North China Continent. It is all fertile black soil. I hope to give you the Ulan Plain, as well as the grassland to the north of the Ulan Plain, which is the central region of the North China Continent."

The European continent is called the North China Continent by Ye Kun.

The Ulan Plain is the most important granary in Europe, and also has oil and natural gas. So in later generations, when the Russian economy was in a tight spot, they wanted to take back the Ulan Plain.

Ye Kun drew a line on the map and gave the Ulan Plain and the western territory of the later Russian Empire to Shangguan Lin.

And they rowed all the way north to the Baltic Sea, leaving an outlet to the sea for Shangguan Lin's descendants.

This is a thousand times better than the conditions of the later Ulan Kingdom.

Shangguan Lin thanked him and said with a smile: "Thank you, uncle, but can the people in my fiefdom go fishing in the Black Sea?"

The Black Sea has been assigned to Ye Shusheng by Ye Kun, so Shangguan Lin wants to find out clearly.

"of course can."

Ye Kun nodded and said, "Regarding the division of the ocean, we will also formulate a rule. That is, the land extending thirty kilometers into the sea will be considered the territorial waters of the major kings. Regarding the Black Sea, I will give you a specific division."

After arranging things for Shangguan Lin, Ye Kun went to talk to Huang Jingzu again.

Huang Jingzu knew that he was not his biological son, so he kept a low profile and said, "Everything is up to my father's arrangement. I have no objection."

"No, I can't let you suffer."

Ye Kun smiled and drew a circle on the map: "To the northeast of the Black Sea, there is a large sea area called the Sea of ​​Azov. I will give it to you. You can develop from the Sea of ​​Azov to the northeast and control as much land as you can. I will not limit your territory."

From the Sea of ​​Azov to the north is the Russian territory of later generations.

That place is actually not very suitable for development.

Later generations can also see that the area is large, but the population is small.

He is quite good at drinking and can drink two or three kilograms of strong liquor!

The place that Ye Kun drew happened to be the place where Huang Jingzu had fought his way here, and he already had quite a few bases.

Huang Jingzu was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Father, I will listen to you and control it all the way to the Arctic Ocean!"

Ye Kun shook his head: "Your population is still small now, don't expand your territory too much. You need to recuperate, vigorously develop the population, and build a base. When the population increases, you can expand slowly.

Don't exterminate all the indigenous people for now, give them some time to recuperate. When they have wealth, you can take it away, wouldn't that save trouble?"

Huang Jingzu nodded repeatedly.

Two days later, the formal alliance was held.

Ye Kun put forward the general ideas and a preliminary division plan.

Everyone agreed, so they started discussing the specific details.

For example, the division of sea areas, the right of passage through the Black Sea, the right to fish, etc.

There is also the right of way through the Red Sea Canal and the Red Sea Straits.

Sometimes, there are small quarrels.

But with Ye Kun mediating, the situation was basically harmonious.

The alliance discussion lasted for three days. All parties signed and made a document, then worshiped heaven and earth and swore to be forever loyal to the Chinese Han, always hold high the Chinese flag, always be loyal to the court, never claim to be emperor, etc.

This alliance also nominated Ye Shusheng as the leader of the Black Sea Alliance.

Ye Kun was very happy and presided over the ceremony personally, allowing Ye Shusheng, Shangguan Lin, Huang Jingzu, Qin Erwu's son, Guan Yong and Jiang Laowu's son to become sworn brothers.

In this way, an alliance group centered on Yiye Shusheng was established.

He and Ye Feng, one in the east and one in the west, complement each other.

Ye Shusheng and Xie Baochan were most satisfied with this alliance.

Xie Baochan also knew that his son Ye Shusheng was already the untitled Emperor of the West!

Even more majestic than the Roman emperors in their heyday!

After the meeting, everyone played at the meeting site for a few more days before saying goodbye.

Ye Shusheng presented a large number of gifts.

It’s time for Ye Kun to leave.

Before leaving, Ye Kun once again had a secret conversation with Ye Shusheng and taught him some ways of governing the country.

Ye Shusheng listened to the teachings and suddenly asked, "Father once said that the more advanced the technology, the more the imperial power will decline. Is this really true?"
