Chapter 555: Chapter 264: Establishment of the Alliance_3

Hmm, it’s not possible to send them all back, but we can’t ignore it either, so let’s send 10,000 people. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Although the number of people is not large, it still offers some response, and the attitude can’t be said to be too bad.

Although Su Xuange will inevitably be dissatisfied with this, there is at least a step down with this and it will save face.

Moreover, having the great benefit of attacking the Southwest Yi together, the other party is likely to swallow their anger.

After all, compared to the 100,000 refugees Su Xuange guessed, if the attack on the Southwest Yi is successful, Su Country is very likely to gain a province and millions of people.

With such a huge benefit in front of him, what’s the point of haggling with Chu State over the 100,000 people?

It would only damage the relationship between the two countries and affect this alliance, which would not be worth the loss.

What’s more.

Hasn’t 10,000 people been sent back already?

At least it can be considered as a recovery of some vitality, and it’s not that big of a loss.

As for appeasing Su Country, it was decided just like that. As for Su Xuange’s request for temporary suspension of aid, Lu Yuan, who was already mentally prepared, readily agreed.

After all, after receiving the 10 million silver tales gift from Dan Ding Path, Lu Yuan’s military funds suddenly became abundant, and with the savings of these two years, there was no shortage.

Whether Su Country provides assistance or not, it doesn’t have a big impact on him.

On the contrary, Su Country’s lack of this money has a significant impact on them.

Right now, Su Country is also in a difficult situation.

Instead of forcing the other party to provide aid, it’s better to let Su Xuange keep that money and use it well in the coming wars of the alliance and fight the Southwest Yi people well.

This is the most effective strategy for maximizing Su Country’s strength.

The matters of Su Country were clearly resolved like this.

And with Su Xuange’s statement, it was like a signal, good news came one after another from Xichuan Country and Jiuzhen Province as well.

First of all, Xichuan Country, after spending a few years recovering, has finally regained some vitality and saved up some money and grain, giving them the ability to do other things.

Therefore, after initially transforming Xichuan Country into a Buddha country and ruling as a Buddha King for several years, Jihui couldn’t help but be addicted to the feeling of being called a Buddha among men.

So when he received Lu Yuan’s proposal, asking if he would be willing to go south together to conquer Southwest Yi and spread Buddhism to this untamed land that had never experienced it before.

It must be said that Jihui was suddenly tempted.

As a devout Buddha King, he has achieved the accomplishment of establishing an Earthly Buddha Nation on the ground, becoming a sage king in the hearts of many Buddhist disciples.

His prestige is far beyond that of many sages, reaching a level never seen before in Yangzhou, and it is unknown whether anyone will come after him.

But human desires are always endless.

Although Buddhism advocates purity of heart and few desires, who can truly abandon them as a human being?

At least for the time being, Jihui who has come into contact with the title of Buddha King cannot abandon them.

Therefore, at this point in his achievements, being able to help Buddhism expand into Southwest Yi territory, preach the Dharma on this wild land, and educate the people here once again creates a great merit.

For Jihui, this is naturally extremely tempting.

Not to mention, in times of chaos, if he can help Xichuan Buddha Country expand its territory and increase its Strength, making the foundations of Buddha Country more robust and not easily destroyed, there are many realistic considerations.

So after receiving Lu Yuan’s request, Jihui immediately held several rounds of debates in his country, and after consulting with many eminent monks, finally decided to join the alliance.

At the same time, he gave a clear reply.

In the first month of next year, Jihui will personally lead 20,000 Buddha disciples from the north to the south to assist Lu Yuan’s Western Expedition.

Thus, after Su Country, Xichuan Country also joined the alliance.

With responses from Su Country and Xichuan Country, naturally, the only one left is Xie Ning of Jiuzhen Province.

And this Marquis of Wuping under the Ningguo Dynasty, the supervisor of Jiuzhen Province, was visibly shaken after receiving Lu Yuan’s invitation and promises.

Facing such temptation of founding a nation and becoming king, who would not be tempted?

Xie Ning had held great power in the province for ten years, and the court, which he was loyal to, was thousands of miles away, with Su Country and Nanhai Country being major obstacles.

Now the chances of the court reviving are growing slimmer by the day.

It would take at least 30 to 50 years for Jiuzhen Province to reconnect with the court.

And the surroundings of Jiuzhen Province are either barbarians or enemy countries. Rebellions are still rampant within the country and it has not yet stabilized.

Under these circumstances, anyone in Xie Ning’s position would start to think:

What should I and Jiuzhen province do?

Originally, Xie Ning was struggling with this dilemma.

Being a member of the Coastal Aristocratic Family, he had a sense of identity with the Jinling court and concern for his family’s future.

For him to want to rebel against the court and establish a separate country it was difficult.

But after Lu Yuan’s messenger arrived, after Lu Yuan’s promises of help, and the visible benefits and prospects of Jiuzhen participating in the attack on Southwest Yi.

The original ambiguity was completely dispelled.

So after sending capable people back to Linhai to communicate with his family and obtaining the announcement of Xie Ning’s expulsion from the clan, Xie Ning finally had no more worries and officially ascended the throne on the 7th day of the 4th month in the 4th year of Shenwu.

At the same time, he restored his ancestors’ name that was used when they ruled Jinling – Song.

Then Xie Ning issued an edict that Song Country will continue to honor the Jinling court as the legitimate lineage, use the Jianwu reign title and regard itself as a vassal state.

Then the capital city Jiaozhi was renamed Songping to show his intention of pacifying the world.

After doing all these actions, the new King Song finally responded to Lu Yuan, saying that in January next year, Song Country will send 50,000 troops, led by himself, to launch the Northern Expedition against Southwest Yi.

So far, the alliance against Southwest Yi, led by Chu Country and involving Su, Song, and Xichuan countries, was officially established.

A war waged by the Three Emperors against the Yi people is about to begin.
