Crossover in the Anime World

Military expansion also has its limits. Countless countries have ended because they reached the limit of military expansion, such as Rome, Qin, etc. Now the Fire Nation has reached the late stage of expansion. The one-hundred-year expansion journey has come to an end and it is difficult to continue. Found a combat target that can make expansion pay for itself.

The more we fight, the poorer we become, and the poorer we get, the more we fight, falling into a vicious cycle. Now the Fire Nation's only two goals are the North Pole and Yonggu City. If the North Pole is not captured, then the only thing they can do is capture the Yonggu City.

And Eternal City can be said to be a piece of the Fire Nation's heart. They fought a few years ago, but were blocked by the walls of Eternal City. The Earth Powerful Nation did not fight the Fire Nation decisively and hid within the city wall. Even if Uncle Wang could punch it A gap was created in the city wall, but the Fire Nation soldiers could not enter, and the war ended in failure. The Fire Nation then changed its approach, realizing that strong walls could only be breached from the inside.

But now that a new king has ascended the throne within the powerful country, its foothold is not yet stable, and internal interest groups compete fiercely. Although the city wall can block enemies from outside, it cannot withstand the leading party within. There is nothing to hesitate in betraying a powerful country for profit. So everyone in the Fire Nation knew that this was a good opportunity to break into the Eternal City. As long as they succeeded, they would be famous in history.

At this time, the princess recommended one of her own to her father.

Everyone was shocked for a moment, because the princess didn't behave like a twelve-year-old child at all, but completely like a scheming old fox. To be honest, everyone thought that when the princess saw such a contribution to Yonggu City, she would pounce on her like a moth. How could she give it up to someone else?

Even the Fire Lord was surprised, because he thought he knew his daughter. She was a willful child who didn't think about others at all. Unexpectedly, the princess actually promoted talents and assigned them to talents, instead of rushing to take credit for herself.

The court was all surprised for a moment, not knowing what was going on with the princess. It seems that the princess has grown up a lot and understands the right and wrong. She is no longer the person who wants to take credit when she sees the credit, but has become a real manager.

Of course, when the princess recommended others, she also asked Dulan: "What if the person I recommend has too much credit and wants to betray me?" This kind of thing is indeed possible, and this is the one who shocked the master with his high achievements. thing. And once this person gets the opportunity to attack Yonggu City, there will definitely be many people trying to curry favor with him, including the princess's political opponents, who want a piece of the pie. Whether the other party can maintain their loyalty and stay in the organization where "mancers are supreme" is still a question.

Just like playing dungeons in game guilds, everyone gives the best equipment to a certain player, but the player takes the equipment and turns around and goes to another guild. This kind of thing is not uncommon. Therefore, in order to retain players who have concentrated efforts to cultivate, the union will establish a small group and build mutual trust in the small group.

Dulan told the princess to recommend people in the small group around her to ensure that the other party would not betray easily. Of course, this only reduces risk, not completely eliminates risk. Dulan told the princess: "So Your Highness must continue to develop, constantly tell your own stories, expand your own interests, and make them unable to do without you."

The princess thought that this would be difficult. If it could really continue to develop, her father should be able to do it, and it would not be her turn to tell stories with her brother.

But there is always a risk, and even if you encounter someone who betrays you this time, there will be another time. As a princess, her story will not end with one failure. Even if he is betrayed, a master who has a reputation of benevolence and righteousness and has no chance of promotion will be willing to follow the princess. Although the traitor has gained the credit for the Eternal City, there will be many people who are jealous of him and attack him. Without the support of the 'Magician Supreme', he can be easily killed.

Therefore, recommenders are at risk of being betrayed, and betrayers are also at risk of being killed, so there are risks, they are all the same.

In short, the princess finally accepted Dulan's suggestion and recommended the personnel.

Du Lan had a feeling that this was like the Nine Dragons seizing the legitimate children during the Kangxi period. Unfortunately, the Fire King only had two children and did not give birth to nine. After Kangxi's son Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, he also encountered the highly accomplished Nian Gengyao. He also encountered a crisis of betrayal and a crisis of trust. In the end, Nian Gengyao died miserably.

History is always similar. Although the technologies developed are different, the development process is exactly the same, and the various things encountered are also very different. Some people always say that what we learn from history is that human beings will never learn lessons. In fact, it is not that humans do not learn lessons, but because of the reality of the objective environment, so the parties involved have no better choice and can only go this way.

When an industry develops to a certain level, it can only move away from reality and into reality, and can only enter real estate and finance. It is not that they are stupid or greedy, but that the cost of maintaining the industry is getting higher and higher. If there is no breakthrough in productivity to reduce costs, You can only make money from other places, otherwise there is no way to maintain it.

The reason for prosperity and decline is due to this principle. It is not that human beings have not learned lessons from history, but that anyone who encounters the same scene in history will make this choice nine times out of ten, whether they are good people or evil people. Whether it's a smart person or a stupid person, the result is the same.

Therefore, the current situation of the princess has a strong sense of déjà vu, as if Kowloon was seizing the legitimate son Yongzheng. In fact, it is because the environment of the princess and Yongzheng are similar, that is why she has a sense of déjà vu. It's the same if the princess and Yongzheng are replaced by others, it's almost the same.

Of course, if the princess didn't have Dulan's help, she would have taken credit for her achievements and successfully occupied Yonggu City. Although she succeeded in becoming the agent of the Fire Lord in the end, she was betrayed by everyone and ended up having to fight the enemy alone. No one wants to help her.

And with Dulan, we can help the princess create an environment similar to that of Yongzheng, and have a foundation for success.

The Fire King finally agreed to the candidate recommended by the princess, but there was one thing that the princess needed to do, which was to recover the treasury funds. Many Fire Nation officials have borrowed money from the treasury and now hope the princess can get it back.

Feeling more like Yongzheng, Du Lan thought to himself that the Fire Lord wanted to train a princess. Although debt collection is a thankless job, it does provide a good opportunity to get to know state officials and the treasury. You can take the opportunity to see how much money is in the treasury and what is happening with the officials.

Managing the Fire Nation is not just about fighting, it is a huge and complicated project. The princess must understand that even if they are officials in the same dynasty, officials are of all kinds, and these Fire Nation officials are not dedicated to serving the country. Many of them are If you want to get promoted and make a fortune, to manage such a large group of people, you need to not only take credit from them, but also be kind and powerful, and be able to control them.

The princess had the opportunity to learn about the complex environment of the Fire Nation. It was really strange. The officials in the court looked serious, but secretly they were all trying to get the Fire Nation's wool. Asking them to pay back the money is simply as difficult as going to heaven, and their reasons are all the same. To put it simply, they are very poor and cannot pay back.

Back then, Yongzheng was helpless. Even if the princess could kill people, she couldn't make them submit. These guys didn't give them any face at all. But after understanding the ecology of the Fire Nation's court, the princess also realized that being the Fire King was not that easy. In the past, she only knew that her father's words could make the world tremble. Now she understands the difficulty of being the master of the family. The Fire Nation is full of people asking for money. My father is not as prosperous as he appears on the surface. It can be said that he is struggling to support the country.
