Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Zydlovsky saw that although Lin Yi did not answer his question directly, but kept smiling, he understood what Lin Yi meant.

"Your Excellency, I understand. I will inform His Majesty the Tsar about this matter." Zheidlovsky said in a deep voice.

Having said that, Lin Yi's purpose of finding Zydlovsky today has actually been achieved.

So Lin Yi was ready to end today's conversation.

But Zydlovsky's eyes flashed, and suddenly he seemed to have made a decision.

"Your Excellency, the friendship between Daxia and the Rakshasa Empire can be learned from every day. In order to cope with the changing situation in the future, I propose that the relationship between our two countries can be further deepened."

When Lin Yi heard Zydlovsky's words, he immediately understood what he meant.

The Rakshasa Empire wants to form an alliance with Daxia.

Lin Yi has actually considered this.

The Rakshasa Empire's current goal is to regain their lost European territory, which is in line with Daxia's interests.

And a hero also needs a friend and a channel.

The Rakshasa Empire spans Europe. It is a bridge and an important channel for Daxia to expand its influence to Europe.

Therefore, Lin Yi felt that becoming an ally with the Rakshasa Empire would be helpful for Daxia's future actions.

As I said before, the empire hopes to use the war situation in Europe to draw Millican into trouble.

When he was exhausted, he sent people across the sea to land on the American continent.

Due to some considerations, Lin Yi has always been worried that the Hans Empire and the Gallic Empire alone would not be able to force out the full strength of Milician.

At this time, if a Rakshasa Empire is added, the situation may be different.

Thinking of this, it seems that it is not impossible to form an alliance with the Rakshasa Empire.

However, this kind of alliance cannot be exposed immediately, so even if the alliance is formed now, Lin Yi does not intend to announce it.

"Dear Mr. Zydlovsky, you should not talk to me about this matter. After all, I am only a soldier."

"You should talk to Mr. Gu Xianzhi next to you. He is the head of the Imperial Foreign Affairs Department."

"But I personally think that it is okay for you and I to form an alliance now, but it is best not to make it public. To avoid alerting our enemies."

Both Zydlovsky and Gu Xianzhi understood Lin Yi's words.

Gu Xian looked at Zydlovsky and said slowly: "Mr. Zydlovsky, a new batch of tea has arrived at our Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You can come to my place to try it when you have time."

Upon hearing Gu Xianzhi's request, Zheidlovsky nodded quickly and expressed his willingness to go to Gu Xianzhi's Foreign Affairs Department for tea.

"By the way, Your Excellency Prince, I just heard outside that the two princes, at a young age, have been admitted to the Military Academy of Daxia."

"In this regard, I would first like to express my congratulations to His Excellency the Prince. In the future of Daxia, there will once again be two generals who will go down in history." Zydlovsky suddenly turned the topic to Lin Sitai and Lin Sian.

Zydlovsky's sudden change of topic made Lin Yi feel a little embarrassed.

To be honest, Lin Yi didn't really want his two sons to join the army.

If it were a peaceful era, they would have left as well. However, Lin Yi knew very well that in a few years, another war would break out in the world.

At this time, as a father, he was somewhat reluctant to let his two sons join the army.

This is not because Lin Yi is selfish and reluctant to leave his two children, but as a father, he most instinctively wants to protect his children.

This is just like some parents today. Even if their children are adults, they will still treat them as children.

You have obviously been living alone for more than ten years, and you are married and have children, but every time your parents call you, they will tell you to pay attention to your health, eat well, wear warm clothes, and take care of yourself.

I know I will be worried all night when I drive back to my hometown.

This is normal and understandable.

Although Lin Yi didn't really want his two sons to join the army, he wouldn't really stop them from making their choice.

Again, he is the prince of the empire, the head of the military department, and a father.

He needs to set an example to the people of the entire empire. Let everyone know that protecting the country is not only the responsibility of the people, but also the responsibility and obligation of him as a prince.

He, Lin Yi, couldn't bear to part with his children and wouldn't let them join the army, so how could an ordinary family be willing to do so?

As the song goes, if you don’t carry a gun and I don’t carry a gun, who will defend the motherland and who will defend the home?

Therefore, Lin Yi did not stop Lin Sitai and Lin Sian from consulting the Imperial Military Academy, and he also did not intend to open a back door for them.

Now hearing Zydlovsky's words, Lin Yi nodded, and then said: "These two boys are not ashamed."

Although there was some disgust in Lin Yi's tone, the smile on his face never broke.

"That's it, Your Excellency Prince, although our Rakshasa Empire is not as good as before, we still have several top military academies in our Rakshasa Empire."

"If Your Excellency the Prince is willing, I propose that the two Crown Princes can go to our Rakshasa Empire to study for two years before returning to Daxia to continue studying at Daxia's Military Academy. What do you think?" continued.

Upon hearing Zydlovsky's words, Lin Yi was stunned.

To be honest, Lin Yi had never thought of Zydlovsky's proposal before.

Don't think that the Rakshasa Empire's defeat in the first battle proves that the Rakshasa Empire's military strength is inadequate.

That was just a mistake in Nicholas II's decision-making at that time.

In fact, over the past one or two hundred years, the Rakshasa Empire has been one of the most powerful empires in Europe.

Their strength lies not only in their large number of soldiers who can quickly raise an army of several million, but also in the command strength of their senior officers.

The first modern military academy in the Rakshasa Empire was built in 1732, but in 1850, there were 18 top military academies in the entire Rakshasa Empire.

All of these academies are taught by aristocratic officers who have participated in wars and have actual combat experience, and the students they teach are also children of aristocratic families.

It can be said that the Rakshasa Empire Military Academy at that period represented privilege.

In such an environment, do you think the students taught by such a college are good?

In fact, the Rakshasa Empire is a rather contradictory empire.

His upper class are all elites, whether they are soldiers or politicians, and have received elite education since childhood, but his lower class has not received much education, which will lead to serious polarization.

Then some other reasons were added, which led to the decline of the Rakshasa Empire.

But if you only look at the military strength of the Rakshasa Empire, especially the teaching strength of the military academies, Lin Yi feels that it is not weaker than Daxia, and is even stronger than Daxia in some aspects.

Now Zheidlovsky took the initiative to say that he could let Lin Sitai and Lin Sian go to the military academy of the Rakshasa Empire to study, which made Lin Yi quite excited.
