I'll Come Clean! I Am The King Of Lolan!

After hearing this, Kyle was in a state of extreme shock.

Lorne was right, why did he not think of this?

The connection between the western region and the Lolan Empire was a little weak. This had always been a recurring problem for Kyle. After all, the western region was in a remote area. It should be time for them to submit to Lolan’s jurisdiction.

Initially, Kyle was still planning to use ten to twenty years to firmly grasp the entire western region in his hands. However, now, Lorne actually placed an amazing idea right in front of him. There was no need for him to spend as much time as he had originally planned.

He could just directly send thousands of extremely elite soldiers, all of them wrapped in fine equipment, and then used the excuse of protecting Xuan Moster’s westward journey to travel from the western region to India.

Along the way, they would be able to intimidate everyone to a considerable degree.

The Lolan soldiers could go to those small countries in the western region and show off Lolan’s military strength as well. If they met someone who was tough, they could even set up some military trainingevents to show off.

With just this single act of intimidation, they would be able to make the entire western region submit to them.

This strategy seemed fool proof!

Apart from the ther 5 strategies Lorne had yet to mention, just this one benefit alone had already tempted Kyle into agreeing.

He had now completely overturned his previous idea. He was prepared to send some troops to go with Xuan Moster when he returns. However, even so, Kyle still wanted to hear what the other five benefits were…

“Lorne, the first benefit is amazing. What are the other five benefits?”

Lorne looked at Kyle’s hungry expression and he became even more interested in explaining his other reason. He changed his posture and continued.

“The second benefit is still related to the western region. The journey from Lolan City to the west is actually part of the Silk Road.

“This Silk Road is actually very meaningful. It not only broadens the trade between Lolan and the western region.

“More importantly, it shows that before Lolan searched for other ancient cultures, Lolan took the effort to rebuild the Silk Road so that they could completely stabilize the road from the central plains to the western region. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

“In this way, it not only highlights Lolan’s tenacity to rule the world and not be afraid of enemies from all directions…

“It can also allow Lolan to rule the western region and form a fixed rule.”

After Lorne finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then poured himself a glass of water to quench his thirst.

As for Kyle, he began to ponder. Of course, he knew about the Silk Road. In fact, since the founding of the previous kingdom, the Silk Road had been quite prosperous, but the negative impact of the Bora people in that era had impacted it greatly.

After the transition of the two kingdoms, although Bora was internally divided, the conflict between the two parties were fierce.

However, this issue still has not disappeared. This was the real reason why Kyle did not consider reviving the Silk Road.

If there was a problem, just ask. This was the rule Kyle lived by. Therefore, Kyle pressed on, “But at this time, even if the Silk Road is re-opened and stabilized, once the Bora people attack and destroy this trade road, what should we do?”

Lorne could not help but let out a long sigh, and then patted Kyle’s shoulder.

“I say, you’ve been by my side for so long, but why is your vision still just as bad?

“When looking at a problem, you have to learn to look at both sides. Don’t just have tunnel vision.”

Sure enough, when Lorne said it, it’s probably true. Kyle knew that his ability to see another perspective had not always been the best.

Although he was already used to it and his ability to withstand it had been trained to be much stronger, when Kyle heard this evaluation, he could not help but feel his eyes twitch.

It was not that his vision was not good. Kyle was a great king. How bad could it actually be?

One day, he would prove Lorne wrong!

As for now, he could only silently endure it.

Lorne saw that Kyle did not speak, so he simply continued, “If Bora is strong, then the Silk Road might get destroyed again.

“But now that Lolan is strong, the Bora Kingdom should be worried about whether they will be destroyed if they choose to sneak up on the Silk Road from time to time.

“On the contrary, after the Silk Road is rebuilt, it can compress the living space of the Bora people and force them to the east.

“This can be counted as the second benefit.”

Well, Kyle would admit that sometimes he was not very smart. He had always thought that the Bora people would harass them, but he had never thought that the offensive and defensive situation in the world could be reversed.

What the Bora people needed to worry about was whether Lolan would send troops to suppress them. After understanding this factor, Kyle immediately accepted the second benefit wholeheartedly.

In order to cover up his slight embarrassment, Kyle had to quickly change the topic.

“Lorne, the first and second benefits are all related to the western region. Could it be that Xuan Moster’s westward journey can only affect the western region?”

Lorne raised a finger and waved it left and right.

“In fact, in my opinion, his journey has great significance that can actually be related to India! By the way, have you seen the map of India?”

Kyle could not help but shake his head. He had seen it before, but he was now a businessman, so it was not very appropriate for him to say that he has.

“I’m in the medicinal herbs business. I can go from south to north, I have no need to look at it so I don’t know what it looks like.”

Lorne tapped the table gently and spoke slowly

“You’re not the only one who doesn’t know, in fact, even the king in the palace only has a very rough, vague, and simple map of India. Other than the general outline, there are no other details.

“If Lolan sends a large number of soldiers to go with Xuan Moster… Since he wants to exchange Buddhist teachings and learn Buddhist scriptures, they would naturally have to travel around.

“If the king were to carry out this plan, he would definitely arrange for some expert map makers to join the journey as well. It wouldn’t take too long before we would obtain a detailed map of India.

“Although it might not be of use for a while, what if in the future, when Lolan becomes the ruler of the world and pushes the border all the way to India?

“At that time, this map will become an unparalleled treasure.”

Looking at Lorne’s smiling face, Kyle could not help but feel his heart surge with adoration.

Lorne actually thought so far ahead and even thought that one day, Lolan might have to fight India.

This was indeed something that Kyle would never even think of.

However, for some reason, when Kyle thought of the scene described in his description, he could not help but feel excited and his excitement bubbled over.

Actually, when Lorne suggested this, Kyle already somewhat understood the intention.

Letting Xuan Moster to India to exchange and study was not the main reason at all.

The true meaning should lie in the six benefits that would be discussed.

If that was the case, could the previous talk about the parallel of Buddhism and Taoism be just seen as superficial?

Perhaps Lorne was thinking the same thing as himself. This was because they were both not religious people.
