Chapter 2319: Discussion
Nan Hua blinked her eyes.
Long Qian Xing's way of describing the city was indeed quite unique. However, it was not completely wrong.
This was indeed an old city.
The maintenance of the city itself over the years was not very good. It could be said that they didn't bother maintain the cities over here too much due to the pressure from the north.
The location of this city was closer to the north and it seemed that the people who used to be here were usually busy with the war against the northern tribe. Most of the ministers and officials were also busy with that matter.
They couldn't care too much about the city's situation.
"It'll not take long before this city fall," Nan Hua said.
Long Qian Xing chuckled. "Do you have so much confidence in me?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"I have the confidence in you and I know the situation in this city itself is not very good," Nan Hua replied.
The few people who were left in Fan Yi Kingdom were not very capable. Those who were capable were either switching side to Fei Yang Kingdom or died in battle to protect Fan Yi Kingdom.
Even now, she could say that the situation in Fan Yi Kingdom had already reached an unprecedented crisis.
But Fan Yi Kingdom would not show it.
Long Qian Xing revealed a thoughtful look. "Do you have some people inside Fan Yi Kingdom?"
Fan Yi Kingdom was the furthest away from Fei Yang Kingdom. Normally speaking, it would be hard for them to send people to this place for whatever reason. It would also take a long time for them to send messages back.
Of course, Fei Yang Kingdom as a whole still has some people in Fan Yi Kingdom.
But the number was not many.
The information that could be transmitted back was limited.
"No," Nan Hua replied.
Dark Moon Organization's range of activities in the past didn't include Fan Yi Kingdom. Nan Hua also had no intention of putting her people to Fan Yi Kingdom at that time because she knew very well that it would be useless.
Spreading too far would make communication difficult.
Moreover, Nan Hua knew very well that there was no need to monitor Fan Yi Kingdom so much. The main reason why Fan Yi Kingdom went on their separate ways based on the history record was because of their disappointment in the previous emperor.
During the time when the entire land was still under one leader, one king, there were also conflict with the northern tribe and them. But the leader at that time seemed to have done something that would put the people in the north in danger.
Coupled with the fact that the nobles or perhaps royalty here has been staying here for a long time, they cut off the ties with the king.
And that was when Fan Yi Kingdom was born.
The other kingdoms were born through different situation. Some were because the royalty wanted to survive and had to make his own kingdom, some because a nobility wanted to seize power.
They have various reasons.
Over the span of a century or perhaps two, the kingdoms were split, fought, some fell and mixed until there were only six left. These six kingdoms lasted for decades, maintaining balance with each other until Fei Yang Kingdom started to conquer other kingdoms.
All of these were written in the historical record.
Even if the historical record was written by the victor, most general timeline would still follow the truth.
Only some reasons might be changed or fabricated.
But most of these historians didn't really side with anyone and record the history truthfully as it is.
Of course, it was undeniable that some of them could be wrong.
But Nan Hua had read these records when she has time in the past. There were some interesting things from these records and it also recorded the reasons why the kingdoms were separated.
Ah, the detailed record was stored in the former Zhang Xu Kingdom's palace.
It was seized by Fei Yang Kingdom's Emperor later on and then kept by the historians. Nan Hua asked for permission from Old Master Nan to read them and it was given. In fact, many students in the academy was allowed to read these records.
After all, studying history was one of the few ways for them to learn the lesson from the past.
When Nan Hua read the history of Fan Yi Kingdom, she felt that this kingdom shouldn't be that hard to conquer.
From the beginning, the main reason for Fan Yi Kingdom's separation was to protect the people at the north. There were many people here who wanted to protect the people more than the throne.
It was also because of this that Long Qian Xing's negotiation with Prime Minister Yang and General Yang at that time could proceed smoothly.
These two people cared for the people who lived at the north.
So for their sake, they hoped the war could be over as soon as possible and didn't consume too
much of their people.
They didn't want any useless deaths.
Even if it was said that it would protect Fan Yi Kingdom, but does Fan Yi Kingdom really have
the chance to win?
It was somewhat doubtful.
Right now, the northern tribe was not making any move to make trouble. But the double pressure from two places were something that Fan Yi Kingdom couldn't withstand.
It was also due to this consideration that some people gave up directly to Fei Yang Kingdom. What they wished was for Fei Yang Kingdom to take over the task to protect the north border.
That was all they wanted.
However, there were also people who were clearly more selfish and only wanted power. The conflict between these two people were inevitable and the people left in Fan Yi Kingdom were mostly the people who only wanted power.
And from what Nan Hua knew, some of them were capable while the rest were only talking
big.
