Chapter 622: Is it to actively enter the game, or to protect oneself?

"Nowadays, among the imperial forces like the Great Qin, the most chaotic are the three, which are the Great Han, the Northern Song, and the Great Ming."

"And among these three forces, the Great Han is the most dangerous."

Ying Ying Ziyu looked into Ying Zheng's eyes and said slowly:

"With Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao, they have now occupied more than half of the Great Han's territory; after the major clans of the Great Han recognized the reality, they all huddled together for warmth to jointly protect the Great Han."

"So now, the Taiping Dao and the Great Han can only maintain a stalemate; however, the power composed of the clans cannot be guarded for long."

"The clans are used to being proud; as long as they obtain even a trace of victory in the battle with the Taiping Dao in the future, the clan legions will inevitably fall apart, and by then, the Taiping Army will inevitably be able to continue attacking the Great Han."

"However, relying solely on Zhang Jiao's power, the Great Han will inevitably not perish; after all, the Great Han has two guardian deities, Wang Yao Yue and Tong Yuan."

"However, it is obvious that the Great Han will inevitably be stuck in a situation for years to come where major clans carve up territory and remain in constant opposition to Zhang Jiao's Peace Army."

"And the imperial power of the Great Han will inevitably fall into other hands."

"As for the Northern Song, the situation was originally no better than the Great Han."

"But now, Li Shimin of the Great Tang has actively plunged the Great Tang into this whirlpool of the Northern Song; it seems he wants to profit from it, but whether he can retreat from this whirlpool unscathed in the end is still a very interesting matter."

"After all, in this whirlpool of the Northern Song, several forces are involved, including Liang Shan, Fang La, Great Jin, Great Liao, Southern Song, and Western Xia."

"Even if the Great Tang's national strength is strong, facing so many forces at the same time will absolutely not be easy."

"As long as Zhao Ji obediently listens to Huang Shang, the Northern Song will have no worries about perishing in the short term."

"As for the Great Ming, ever since Zhu Houzhao woke up and was brought into the Southern Zhili by a mysterious person, the Great Ming has formed a situation of two dragons fighting."

"Although it seems that nothing big has happened in the Great Ming now, the chaotic situation of the Great Ming in the future will absolutely not be weaker than any other party."

"After all, besides the trouble of the Southern King Ning Wang and Zhu Houzhao that Zhu Zhu Wushi has to deal with in the Great Ming itself,"

"the Jianzhou Jurchens led by Kangxi, the Oirats, and the Great Yuan's armies are not to be trifled with!"

"So now, among the major imperial dynasties, there are roughly only these three battlefields; except for the Great Qing ruled by the demon empress, which is closed to the outside world, almost all imperial forces have been involved in these three major battlefields."

"And the Jianghu forces within the major empires are even more chaotic."

"However, the ones that need the most attention are Mount Wudang, Shaolin, Cihang Jingzhai, the Demon Sect, the Heaven Gate, and the God Searching Palace!"

"Besides these forces, the rest of the forces do not need too much attention."

Hearing Ying Ying Ziyu's words, Ying Zheng went from nodding in agreement at the beginning, to slight surprise, and then to shock to the point of being unable to speak.

He experienced several changes in emotion.

Ying Zheng did not expect that Ying Ying Ziyu would be so well-informed about the news of other major forces.

It had even surpassed the Great Qin's intelligence network.

Among the information in Ying Ying Ziyu's words, there was a lot of information that even Ying Zheng had not received.

Although he had not received information feedback from his own forces, Ying Zheng felt in his heart that what Ying Ying Ziyu said must all be facts!

Besides the fact that Ying Ying Ziyu's information system was faster than the Great Qin's, what shocked Ying Zheng was that Ying Ying Ziyu could analyze future events or possible situations based on this information.

After years of cultivation of the big picture by Ying Zheng and his thinking about what Ying Ying Ziyu had just said, he actually discovered that the things Ying Ying Ziyu judged would basically be realized in the future.

This made Ying Zheng look at Ying Ying Ziyu even more highly; this showed that Ying Ying Ziyu was not a brainless martial artist with only cultivation, and his brain and logical thinking ability were still very excellent!

After closing his eyes for a while to rest, Ying Zheng continued to look at Ying Ying Ziyu and asked:

"In your opinion, in this chaotic world, how should our Great Qin conduct itself?"

"Is it to actively enter the game, or to protect oneself?"

This time, Ying Zheng felt that he had given Ying Ying Ziyu a difficult problem; after all, the two answers given by Ying Zheng would not be full marks in Ying Ying Ziyu's heart, but they would not be low marks either.

Both answers had their own advantages.

However, Ying Ying Ziyu would naturally not speak according to the path planned by Ying Zheng.

"In fact, for these two choices, I don't want to accept either of them."

"It is true that the Nine Provinces are chaotic now, and in the future, a catastrophe that sweeps across the entire Nine Provinces is highly likely to appear; preserving strength to welcome the arrival of the catastrophe is indeed a good choice."

"But at the same time, when the catastrophe arrives, this is also an opportunity."

"When the catastrophe arrives, the major forces are chaotic; this is a reshuffling of the major forces."

"Whether one can obtain more resources after the catastrophe depends entirely on one's performance in the catastrophe."

"If our Great Qin guards firmly, even if we survive the future catastrophe, when we encounter the force that gains the most in the future catastrophe, only two paths will await the Great Qin: either submit or be destroyed."

Hearing Ying Ying Ziyu's words, Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"So you mean to actively enter the catastrophe?"

Ying Zheng wanted to continue listening to Ying Ying Ziyu's later words; he felt that the remarks made by Ying Ying Ziyu were somewhat interesting.

"No, at this time, like Li Shimin, directly entering the whirlpool is, in my view, an extremely stupid thing."

"Now actively entering the whirlpool, although it will gain the initiative and also have the opportunity to accumulate some strength before the final catastrophe, at the same time, the crisis will also increase accordingly."

"Our Great Qin must eventually actively enter the whirlpool, but not now!"

"The Great Qin's strength is extremely formidable; we can completely deceive the vision of other forces in the Nine Provinces on the surface, making them feel that we have chosen a conservative defense, waiting for the catastrophe to arrive."

"And in reality, we can divide part of our strength to disrupt the entire Nine Provinces, making the major forces become even more chaotic; we must support the weaker side, support the weak side to make a certain major force chaotic, and consume the strength of the major force."

"But when the major force is about to perish, we create opportunities to let the major force continue to fight to the death with the side we helped."

"When all the forces become like this, it is the time for our Great Qin to harvest; by then, we won't even need to pay any national strength, and we can directly wipe out all the forces in one go!"

These words spoken by Ying Ying Ziyu were also exactly what Ying Ying Ziyu was doing now.

However, he did not say this last sentence to Ying Zheng.

After hearing Ying Ying Ziyu's words, Ying Zheng was first slightly stunned, and then his eyes shot out a ray of essence, as if he had discovered a new path.

Ying Zheng's heart instantly became clear.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Ying Zheng praised Ying Ying Ziyu without stint.

Subsequently, he prepared to thoroughly start handing over the burden of the Great Qin bit by bit to Ying Ying Ziyu's hands! ===== CHAPTER 623 =====
