Even Huang Xu, the most powerful general of Daqian, could fight him on equal terms.

Perhaps there was some element of Huang Xu being modest out of consideration for King Jin's reputation, but he also had to admit that King Jin was a good fighter.

The King of Qin was born to Huang Wudie and had always been practicing martial arts with Huang Zhong.

The King of Liang was born to Ma Yunlu. Ma Yunlu laid the foundation for him since he was a child. Then when he grew up, he followed Ma Chao to learn martial arts and join the army to fight.

These three are the best fighters among the many brothers, the rest are either literary or useless.

Not long after, three muscular men, each over nine feet tall, one of them as tall as ten feet, walked in.

"Your Highness, I greet you, my brother."

Dong Feng, Dong Yi and Dong Xi bowed to Dong Ying.

"My three brothers, please don't be so polite. We are all brothers. There is no need to be so formal in private."

"I called you here because I have something important to discuss with you."

Dong Ying walked up to the three of them, lifted them up and said.

"Royal brother, we have nothing to do all day, what important things do you have to discuss with us?"

Dong Feng smiled and shook his head.

Dong Ying's throne was very stable, and they knew they didn't have the ability to fight for anything.

It’s a pity that they are not valued by Dong Yu. Although they have great ambitions, they can only be trapped in the imperial city.

"Brothers, I know that you three are extraordinary martial artists. Brother Feng is even more adept at the art of war. As for Brother Xi, he has often followed General Ma in battle and has accumulated a great deal of experience."

"Now the country is stable and there is no war, but I don't want you to waste your youth in vain, so I have found a good place to go. I just wonder if you are willing to go?"

Dong Ying looked at the three brothers and asked with a smile.

"A good place?"

"Brother Emperor, are you going to ask us to expand our territory?"

"That's great!"

"I promise, I'm sure, I will never have any evil intentions towards the throne."

Dong Feng's eyes lit up and he looked at Dong Ying in surprise.

"Hahaha, between us brothers, why do we need promises?"

"Now General Xu and General Zhao are leading our cavalry to flatten the grasslands."

"And my father once said that if you go west from the grasslands, you can find a place called Europe."

"This journey is more than ten thousand miles. You can conquer a vast territory, but the journey is long and it may be difficult for you to return. I am reluctant to leave and I am very conflicted."

Dong Ying's face was filled with excitement at first, and then with reluctance, her expression was simply one of deep brotherly love.

"really?"

"How many troops are you willing to give us, brother?"

Dong Feng and the others' eyes lit up and they immediately became excited.

I'm not willing to leave at all!

They have no attachment to this so-called cage at all.

The sky and the sea are vast, fish leap and birds fly.

This is what a real man should do. What kind of man is it to be trapped in a gorgeous cage all day long?

Just like what my grandfather often said, a real man lives in this world, how can he be depressed and inferior to others for long?

"Well, I can give you ten thousand cavalry, five thousand flintlock rifles, and a number of arrows for bows and crossbows."

"If you have the ability, conquer wherever you can. Your surname is Dong. Even if the territory you conquer doesn't belong to Daqian, it still belongs to my Dong family."

"Don't think I'm stingy. You should know that the people over there are very weak. The Xianbei and Xiongnu are such weak people. They killed people indiscriminately when they arrived in Europe."

Dong Ying looked serious and began to fool the three brothers.

"Isn't ten thousand a bit much?"

"For such a dish, five thousand is enough."

Dong Xi couldn't help but mutter.

"Not much, not much at all."

Dong Yi spoke quickly and kicked Dong Xi at the same time.

"Okay, then it's settled."

"But brother has something to remind you."

“Military force can conquer a country, but civil governance cannot be neglected either.”

"You may not be able to speak the local language when you arrive, so you should learn the local language and customs as much as possible."

Although Dong Ying had bad intentions, she didn't want her brothers to die tragically.

After all, we have the same father. No matter how close we are, he is always better than a stranger.

"What are you going to learn? Arrange some Confucian scholars for us. When we get there, let them learn the language of Daqian."

"I gave him face, but he still imitated them."

Dong Feng said with pride.

"..."

"It's my brother who was inconsiderate."

"Okay, I will arrange some Confucian scholars for you. They can not only teach you, but also help you handle some state affairs."

Dong Ying was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

"Brother Emperor, if that's the case, then we have a deal."

"Once we conquer a large territory, we can become a vassal state of Daqian, but you can't mess with us."

Although Dong Feng was reckless, he was not stupid. He immediately made an agreement in advance.

"Brothers, let's high-five each other!"

Dong Ying stretched out her hand and spoke.

"A word is settled!"

The three of them high-fived in turn.
