Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Upon hearing this question, everyone present fell silent.

Some reporters from small countries turned to look at the reporter who asked the question. When they found out that the reporter was a typical German, they immediately guessed his identity and did not dare to say anything more.

And reporters from some big countries, such as those from the John Empire and the Gallic Empire, looked like they were ready to watch the show.

At the same time, reporters from these big countries also lamented that this reporter from the Hans Empire was really ignorant.

When Lin Yi heard this question, he frowned at first, but relaxed in an instant.

He looked at the reporter with a smile on his face and said, "Journalist friend, first of all, I need to correct you. Daxia is not encircling Southeast Asia."

"As a regional power with a history of thousands of years, Bactria has had a profound impact on Southeast Asia."

"The longing for Bactria in Southeast Asian countries lasts for thousands of years, and can range from hundreds of years to hundreds of years. Southeast Asian countries have deep feelings for Bactria."

"Some countries were once tributary states and vassal states of Daxia. Their relationship with Daxia is so close that anyone who knows something about history should know about it."

"As for why there is so much chaos in Southeast Asia now, this is just a misunderstanding."

"Now that Daxia has strength, it is natural to rebuild the order in Southeast Asia. And because Mr. Journalist, being able to say such things makes me somewhat doubtful of his professionalism."

"However, since this journalist friend has asked, I can now make a promise to all journalist friends on behalf of Daxia."

"Southeast Asia will be an open and friendly market, welcoming investments from all countries in Southeast Asia."

"But Southeast Asian countries also have national sovereignty, so please don't talk about carving up or sharing in the future. This is a humiliation for the people of Southeast Asian countries."

"In Daxia, there is an old saying that when friends come, there is wine; when there are wolves, there are shotguns."

"As for whether you choose wine or a shotgun, it depends on your choice."

Although Lin Yi was smiling, his words were still very level.

As for Lin Yi's subtext, all the reporters present understood it.

To put it simply, Lin Yi wanted to express Daxia's attitude towards Southeast Asia and other places to the countries behind them through the reporters present.

These areas have been Daxia's territory since ancient times. It's just that Daxia was slacking off in the past few years, so you took these territories away from Daxia.

But now that Daxia is stronger, it is natural that it wants to retake these areas.

If you agree and want to continue doing business here, Daxia will support it. But if you oppose it and want to interfere with Daxia's rule of Southeast Asia, then don't blame Daxia for beating you up when the time comes.

After saying this, Lin Yi didn't care about the Hans Empire reporter's face anymore, and just led his bodyguards towards the outside of the station.

The reporters wanted to ask Lin Yi some more questions, but they were stopped by Lin Yi's guards.

When he was about to get in the car, Lin Yi asked Gu Xianzhi to take his car.

When Gu Xianzhi heard Lin Yi's request, he knew that Lin Yi had something to say to him.

After Fang Gu Xianzhi got into the car, he noticed that Lin Yi's face was not pretty.

Lin Yi didn't speak. Gu Xianzhi sat next to him and didn't dare to speak casually.

When the car started, Lin Yi suddenly spoke and said to Gu Xianzhi: "Xianzhi, you have seen it. The Hans Empire can't help but want to attack me, Daxia."

Gu Xianzhi listened to Lin Yi's words, and after a moment, he spoke: "Your Majesty, are we worrying too much? Or maybe the Hans Empire just asked casually, or maybe this is just a personal behavior and has nothing to do with the Hans Empire? "

"No, before joining the Allied Powers, the Empire communicated with other Allied Powers members. The Empire only wants Southeast Asia."

"This is one of the prerequisites for the Empire to join the Allied Powers, so it is unlikely to be a casual question."

"Since you asked, someone must be giving instructions behind your back."

"As for whether it could be a personal behavior, I thought about it at the beginning, but I found it was wrong."

"If it was a personal act, then he would definitely consider the relationship between Hans Empire and Daxia as allies, and would never use words like invasion, occupation, or land enclosure."

"After all, no matter how reckless you are, you still need to consider the relationship between the empire and the Hans Empire."

"These people are all fine people. Every question they ask and even every word they use is carefully thought out."

"So, this person did it on purpose. Someone must have instructed him to say this to test our attitude towards this matter."

Hearing Lin Yi's explanation, Gu Xianzhi also frowned.

If this is really the situation that Lin Yi said, that is the worst situation.

The Empire had just joined the Allied Powers and defeated the Allied Powers. Now the Allied Powers are not very friendly towards Daxia.

If the Empire turns against the Allies again at this time, it will be tantamount to offending both major military groups.

Gu Xianzhi thought that by offending the two major military groups, the empire would have no friends in the world.

That's also because of some things, the empire may be targeted by other countries.

When Lin Yi saw Gu Xianzhi's expression, he smiled directly, and then patted Gu Xianzhi on the shoulder.

"What, are you scared?" Lin Yi joked.

"Afraid, how could you be afraid? I just think it would be more troublesome for the empire to have no friends internationally." Gu Xianzhi shook his head.

In the past, when Daxia was poor and oppressed, he wasn't afraid, so would he still be afraid now?

"Don't worry, the kind of thing you are worried about will happen in the next few years. Even if the empire has no friends, it will not be able to fight."

"Now that the entire Europe has been destroyed, it will take at least seven or eight years to restore its strength. By then, the empire will definitely be stronger than it is now."

"Even if it faces the entire Western world, the empire is not without the power to fight."

"Besides, who stipulates that the Empire cannot make friends during this period?"

"Since the Empire was able to join the Allies before, we can also move closer to the Entente."

"In a word, as long as your thinking does not slip, there are always more solutions than difficulties."

"You should take advantage of this peace negotiation to get closer to those European countries. We cannot place all our hopes on the fact that the Hans Empire will not fall out with us."

"As long as we are strong enough, if the Hans Empire dares to turn against us, we can just give him a good beating."

Gu Xianzhi nodded heavily when he heard Lin Yi's words.

Indeed, as Lin Yi said, the empire now has a vast territory.

As long as these territories are digested, the empire's strength can reach a higher level and become the strongest country in the world.

By that time, even if the Hans Empire falls out, what will happen?

However, Gu Xianzhi also felt that the burden on his shoulders was a little heavier.
