Chapter 745: The Anxi Protectorate General's Office

"Report! The Kokand Khanate has signed a Sovereign State treaty with our nation!"

"Report!"

"The Putu Kingdom is henceforth a vassal state of the Dragon Flame Nation!"

"Report!"

"General Qin has signed a mutual defense treaty with the Savi Dynasty!"

"Report!"

"Lord Ling Chen has captured Mughal Delhi!"

"Report!"

"A great victory in Delhi; Lord Ling Chen has annihilated one hundred thousand of the enemy!"

"Report!"

Longyan Jinghua.

Remember the website rg

It welcomed the first snow of this winter.

The Imperial Palace.

Military reports, one after another, drifted down like the goose feathers in the sky, and they would not stop.

The entire imperial court was in a fervor.

The addition of one vassal state after another caused the status of the Dragon Flame Nation to rise with the tide.

Expanding the territory!

"Long live the Dragon Flame Nation!"

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Long live the Emperor, may you live for ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand times ten thousand years!"

This is expanding the territory!

Since the Dragon Flame Nation truly reclaimed the Western Regions, this is yet another expansion of territory.

Xie Tianyao was already gripping the armrests of the Dragon Throne in excitement, his entire body beginning to tremble.

Many people suddenly realized a problem: it seemed that ever since this Vice Minister Liu appeared, the Dragon Flame Nation had begun its external expansion again, and it could no longer be stopped. No matter the era or the dynasty, expanding territory is the grand goal that every monarch pursues throughout their life!

Viewed in this light.

Vice Minister Liu is extremely clever.

The civil and military officials knelt down one after another, sincerely offering their praises.

Xie Tianyao laughed heartily: "Good, good, good! A fine Ling Chen, a fine Vice Minister Liu!"

"Reward them!"

No one else could govern the territory of the Dragon Flame Nation in such an orderly fashion.

No one else could produce the New Learning to govern the world, no one else could become the leader of the scholars of the world, and no one else could use young generals trained in a military academy for only a few months to throw the entire Central Asian war situation into chaos.

No one.

He is not keen on the infighting within the Dragon Flame Nation; instead, he has kept his gaze fixed abroad.

From the Western Regions to the Southern Barbarians, and then to Central Asia. The influence of Liangzhou has already begun to develop uncontrollably. More importantly, this is a path that is very hard to refuse. On one hand, you know that the strength of Liangzhou is becoming increasingly massive, to the point where it can threaten the Crown Prince, Xie Fang. But on the other hand, it is very difficult to make him stop. Because apart from him, there is no one else.

There is no one else who can lead the Dragon Flame Nation to continue expanding its territory.

Regardless of whether you like Vice Minister Liu or not.

All of this just happened.

Vice Minister Liu is just that strong.

Suddenly, after the mountain-shaking cheers, everyone took a deep breath; they felt a sense of powerlessness.

This was absolutely an all-encompassing crushing victory.

The dying Dragon Flame Nation was brought back to life in the hands of Vice Minister Liu, much like the body of Xie Tianyao.

The annual fiscal revenue of the Longyan Dynasty was only a little over twenty million silver taels.

This is gold.

Nearly several decades' worth of fiscal revenue!

This time, in the war in Central Asia and the Indian Continent, the Dragon Flame Nation achieved a crushing victory. Almost anyone could imagine what kind of benefits the Dragon Flame Nation would gain from this victory. Rolling gold would surely come without end. Every one of those coming to acknowledge the Sovereign State had offered at least ten million in gold!

Ten million in gold!

What kind of concept is this?

"Hahahaha, hahahaha, delightful!"

This time, Xie Tianyao truly could not suppress his excitement. In an instant, the fiscal situation of the Dragon Flame Nation became incomparably wealthy; who wouldn't be happy?

"Congratulations to the Emperor!"

Just in terms of wealth alone, it was incomparably heartening!

What do you call this? War profits!

War profits are truly sweet.

"The Emperor's peerless merits deserve a sacrifice at Mount Tai!"

"Yes! A sacrifice at Mount Tai!"

"We should expand the imperial palaces to manifest the Emperor's might!"

"Congratulations to the Emperor!"

These court officials were naturally very happy as well.

If the Dragon Flame Nation has money, don't they have money too?

The Longyan Dynasty has truly been poor for too long; how many years has it been since anyone dared to build a palace? Added to this, these years have belonged to a Little Ice Age, with no shortage of natural disasters each year, and the imperial court still having to allocate funds for disaster relief; the financial situation has truly been enough to make one's head spin. Today, suddenly becoming wealthy like this actually gives people a sense of joy like the Lunar New Year.

Xie Tianyao was left between laughter and tears.

The way he has served as Emperor...

Everyone excitedly put forward their own opinions.

Xie Tianyao watched everything with a smile.

There is no Method.

"A palace, one could indeed be built."

He laughed heartily.

Who doesn't have a time for celebration? Since so much money has been brought in, enjoying it a little is still acceptable.

"Hehe, the Fengshan Sacrifice at Mount Tai is unnecessary."

Xie Tianyao waved his hand and chuckled.

Although his body had improved slightly, his recent dependence on that Divine Medicine was also obvious. With his current health, lasting another year would be enough; to go and climb that Mount Tai, wouldn't that be the death of him? Xie Tianyao was not a person who liked such empty formalities; he would rather live well and watch his Longyan Dynasty get better and better.

This was naturally also Xie Tianyao's way of managing his subordinates.

"Emperor."

At this moment, the Prince of Qin stepped forward.

"Long live the Emperor!"

Since a palace was to be built, naturally some people were happy.

This piece of fat, passing through this person's hands, then through that person's hands—wouldn't everyone get fat from it?

If one said that before, they completely looked down upon the lands beyond the Western Regions because those places were poor; however, after seeing the gift list this time, no one would think that way anymore. Just kidding, this was genuine gold! Who could have imagined that the current Western Regions would be so wealthy?

It was simply dripping with fat!

How could such a place not be seized?

Everyone looked at him.

He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Emperor, your humble servant believes that since Central Asia has been settled, we must think of a Method to stabilize the various states."

Once these words were spoken, the whole hall was in an uproar.

Upon hearing this, the whole hall immediately became excited.

A Protectorate!

Another Protectorate! The tenth Protectorate of Longyan.

This was a place that could produce gold!

Xie Tianyao also nodded: "What is Imperial Brother's meaning?"

The Prince of Qin continued: "Emperor, your younger brother believes that we should establish a Protectorate in the Central Asia region to control the various states of Central Asia!"

Ling Chen's army of three hundred thousand was still sweeping through Central Asia, and even India.

The wealth of this land had already exceeded their imagination.

How to manage it, how to operate it, had become extremely important.

What did a Protectorate mean? It meant the sphere of influence of Longyan, it meant the power of Longyan, it meant the territory of Longyan!

Once, during the most glorious time of Longyan, they also had some control over the Central Asia region, but at that time, they still called Central Asia the Western Regions, and they only controlled a few small states in Central Asia; they did not station troops on a large scale, let alone speak of what kind of benefits they could obtain from these states.

However, it is different now.

Xie Tianyao's eyes narrowed slightly: "What is Imperial Brother's meaning?"

The Prince of Qin said loudly: "Your younger brother implores the Emperor to abolish the Western Regions Protectorate and establish the Anxi Protectorate General!"

Once these words were spoken, the whole hall fell silent.

Everyone's mind was buzzing.

This matter was too big!
