These 35 system main cities provided Zhao Fu with 13 million people and three million or so Stage 1 soldiers. Zhao Fu was quite satisfied, and after relocating so many system main cities, Qin City was about to level up again.
After clearing out so many regions, the amount of EXP they had obtained from relocating 35 system main cities was not small at all. Adding on the EXP from relocating 35 system main cities, Zhao Fu's City was about to level up.
The northern side's City Lords passed through the Great Wall and came to Qin's territory. Seeing how peaceful and peaceful it was, they saw how prosperous and powerful the cities were. It was a stark contrast to the bloodlust and slaughter outside.
After personally entering Qin City and feeling how powerful and peaceful it was, the northern side's City Lords finally felt at ease.
Before, they had felt that Qin City was incredibly bloodthirsty, cruel, and ruthless, and that the people living there would definitely have difficult lives. However, it was completely different from what they had expected – Qin City was definitely the most suitable faction to join. Now, none of the City Lords regretted their decision, and a trace of a smile appeared on their faces.
In this chaotic world filled with endless wars, Qin City had created a peaceful place, which was something that they could not do at all.
Now that they had joined Qin City, they did not have to worry about the future. They did not have to worry about players rebelling or other factions attacking them, and they could just peacefully be City Lords. This kind of life was quite good.
Now that the northern side's City Lords had come to Qin City, Zhao Fu felt more at ease. Now that the ten regions belonged to Qin City, Qin City's territory was completely connected to Vietnam.
Right now, Zhao Fu did not have any plans to invade Vietnam, because if Qin City invaded, all of Vietnam would retaliate. Luckily, the players could use Reality-Harming Talismans to force them back. Even though they would hate Qin City, they would not dare to do anything.
On the other hand, Vietnam's system main cities would ally together. After all, this was a foreign invasion. Most people did not think that internal strife was a problem, but if there was a foreign invasion, there would be a problem of xenophobia.
Moreover, the Vietnamese players were a big problem. Even though they were afraid of the Reality-Harming Talismans, after the real world was devoured, they would become a big threat. If they were forced too hard, they would still retaliate.
At that time, the Reality-Harming Talismans would be useless, as their bodies would have already entered the Heaven Awaken World. However, when they died, they would truly die.
Right now, it wouldn't be a problem for Qin to defend against a Kingdom, but it would be quite difficult to destroy a Kingdom. As such, Zhao Fu didn't plan to invade Vietnam right now.
At the same time, Zhao Fu ordered people to start building simple defensive walls at the border to prevent the Vietnamese Kingdom from suddenly attacking or invading.
Zhao Fu did not know when to make a move against the Vietnamese Kingdom, and the northern side's matters had concluded here. Originally, Zhao Fu had planned to look elsewhere and think of a way to destroy them. However, under the suggestions of his Generals, Zhao Fu gave up on this plan.
This was because attacking the other three directions would affect even more regions. The other three directions were connected to many Chinese regions, and attacking them would cause countless City Lords to turn against them. For safety reasons, even more City Lords would join in.
Some of the regions that were further away from Qin still hadn't expressed their stance, but since Qin wanted to attack, they could only join in. When that time came, the three directions' forces would become many times more powerful, and they would be much more powerful than the northern side.
As such, he decided to slow down. By now, Xiang Xianxing had completely digested the ten regions, and his attitude became gentler as he tried to persuade the City Lords to surrender and join Great Qin. With Great Qin's strength and defenses, it was the best choice for them, and he would slowly divide them.
…
A few days later, even though Qin had sent out many letters, not a single City Lord had surrendered, making Zhao Fu feel quite disappointed.
Within the Meeting Hall, Sun Hanxiang said, "Your Majesty, I believe that they've been hesitating this entire time. After all, submitting to a faction and handing over their lives and Cities to someone else isn't an easy matter. Why don't we open the City Gates and welcome them into Qin? We'll let them see what Qin really is like. That will be many times more effective than persuading them to surrender, and it'll be much more convincing.
"Right now, everything outside the Great Wall is in chaos, and they'll have to deal with all sorts of dangers. Under such immense pressure, I'm sure many people will choose to join Qin!"
Wei Liao thought about it and felt quite hesitant before cupping his hands and saying, "Your Majesty, this subordinate feels that we should consider this matter. If we allow them to come to Qin, Qin's strength and arrangements will be completely exposed, and Qin's strength will be revealed. If they don't choose to surrender and instead choose to gather a larger force to attack Qin, they'll find out about Qin's arrangements, and Qin will fall into a disadvantageous situation.
"This subordinate feels that we should continue to sign contracts with them and use close-in tactics to split them apart and defeat them one by one!"
Zhao Fu sat on the throne and thought to himself. Sun Hanxiang's method was filled with confidence and domineeringness, and the benefit was that it didn't require a single soldier to obtain system main cities and their people.
Wei Liao's method was more cautious and cautious, but it was a good method. However, it would take a lot of time, as no one would believe you in a short period of time. Only after interacting with you for a long time would people start to believe you.
"What do you all think?" Zhao Fu looked at the crowd below.
At that moment, Bai Qi cupped his hands and stepped forward, saying, "Your Majesty! I believe that once we've digested these ten regions, we'll gather our forces, find a direction, and kill our way to the end. No faction will be able to react in time and will be destroyed. "
"When the time comes, Qin will have a greater strength, and it shouldn't be a problem for him to turn around and destroy the other two forces. His domineering killing will make them surrender!"
At that moment, Bai Qi also proposed a strategy, which Zhao Fu felt was quite good. It was very fast, but it would consume a lot of resources. Moreover, Qin City would have no soldiers, and the other two factions might suddenly attack.
However, with the huge population of Qin, it wouldn't be a problem to defend the Great Wall. However, there would be a lot of deaths, and the whole of Qin would be under a lot of pressure.
Li Si also stepped forward and voiced his thoughts. "Your Highness! Right now, all of the system main cities are under a lot of pressure, and they understand how difficult the future will be. You can marry some of the City Lords' relatives, and with this relationship, they will naturally trust Qin and join Qin City.
"You can also choose some women from Qin City and give them to the City Lords. By using this relationship, you will be able to gain their trust!"
After hearing this, Zhao Fu couldn't help but glare at him. Even though this was a good idea, Qin City wasn't so weak as to use women to solve the problem.
