Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 475
[Chapter 475 Three Strategies]
“Your Highness, Xiliang Shanyu was beheaded by an axeman in ambush when he met Mule Hongzhen, and then Beidi’s army bloodbathed the Xiliang nobles who refused to submit to them.”
“Now, Xiliang Liang has been completely controlled by Beidi, and Xiliang is dead.”
“After that, Mu Lehongzhen ordered the people of Xiliang to move to Ningjindusi, claiming to recruit Xiliang’s young and strong, to build a strong army, and soon to join Beidi’s army , fight to the death with Your Highness.” Sweat beaded slightly on Xu Hark’s forehead.
The information collected by the Fourth Court from various sources shows that Beidi is really about to get ruthless.
In addition to Xiliang, there was also movement on the grassland north of Yanshan Mountain.
A Beidi king’s tent migrated here, took over the remnants of the black iron king’s tent, and formally replaced the black iron king’s tent.
In An County, a large number of Beidi infantry and cavalry appeared near the iron mine.
Cannons also appeared nearby, and tens of thousands of slaves were driven by Beidi to work in the iron mines.
Correspondingly, the sound of forging in the blacksmith shop in Jincheng continued day and night, obviously forging weapons and armor.
The roar of the test guns was also more frequent than usual.
All this is preparing for war.
Coupled with the nearly two million Xiliang people who Mu Lehongzhen migrated to Ningjindusi, the purpose is self-evident.
When everything is ready, Mule Hongzhen will set off a war.
This time, due to the agreement between the Dasong court and Beidi.
King Yan can only face Beidi alone without any foreign aid.
“Mu Lehongzhen is really insidious and cunning.” Xu Hark sighed, “This peace negotiation is a trap for His Highness, His Highness shouldn’t have agreed to this at the beginning.”
When Xu Hark introduced the situation to him, Zhao Xu never took his eyes off Map on the wall.
This map includes Dasong and the surrounding alien territories.
His eyes lingered on Xiliang for a while, then he finally moved his eyes to Ning Jindusi.
Facing Tsui Hark’s complaint, he said: “You are thinking wrong. No matter whether the king agrees or not, the peace negotiation will eventually come to fruition. This king is just taking the opportunity to ask for some benefits.” After
a pause, he continued. : “It’s just that this king didn’t expect that Mu Lehong would be so ruthless and destroy Xiliang so soon.
” It’s just to deal with His Highness, but in this way, Yanzhou will be under more pressure.” Xu Ke couldn’t hide his worry in his eyes.
Zhao Xu smiled lightly.
Mule Hongzhen’s move will indeed increase the pressure on Yanzhou’s defense.
But it’s not enough to make him unable to deal with it and fall into a complete disadvantage.
First of all, nearly two million people from Xiliang moved to Ningjindusi and needed resettlement.
It also takes a certain amount of time to recruit young men and train soldiers and horses.
And judging from these few battles, he felt that Mu Lehong really had a similar characteristic with himself, that is, he was not fully prepared and would not take action easily.
In this way, Yanzhou can get a period of respite before Mu Lehong truly launches an offensive.
And this time is enough for him to do many things.
However, he has to hurry up, after all, this period of time will not be too long.
Of course, even with this preparatory period, Beidi will definitely not be idle.
The small-scale battle between him and Beidi will not stop.
“Crisis, crisis, there is an opportunity in a crisis. Beidi has migrated so many people, maybe they are making wedding dresses for this king in the end.” Zhao Xu thought of another point, and responded to Xu Ke with a smile.
Among the population of Xiliang, people with Dasong bloodlines probably account for a large part.
Nearly half a million people in Dasong were enslaved in Ningjindusi.
It is a waste to think of a way to rescue these people back to Yanzhou and capture people from Beidi and Xiliang to dig mines.
Xu Hark was immediately encouraged by Zhao Xu’s confident and optimistic look.
Since King Yan said so, he believed that they would win next.
And the Fourth Academy he is in charge of will provide King Yan with the most critical information at all costs.
Even if the body is smashed to pieces, the liver and brain are smeared.
Just as he was thinking, he heard King Yan say: “Northwest, you can withdraw some people from the four courtyards. The peace negotiation has been completed. Before the king is eliminated, Beidi will not conflict with the imperial court.” After
a pause, Zhao Xu He added: “Next, you will mainly focus on Ningjindusi, the capital, and Korea.”
The three places he mentioned are related to his next strategy.
Ningjindusi is the battleground for him to compete with Beidi, so he naturally has to keep an eye on it.
The capital directly reflects the domestic situation in Dasong, and needs constant attention in order to deal with unexpected events.
Goryeo was prepared for Zhou Yi and the others.
This time Goryeo was the tiger’s minion, assisting Beidi to go south and attack Yanguan, how could he let it go lightly.
The “Black Shark Pirate” played by Zhou Yi must be tormenting them severely.
Of course, most importantly, he needs Goryeo as an alternative market for Daesong.
But he also knows that he is not yet capable of conquering Korea.
But it is probably no problem for Zhou Yi and the others to use naval guns to force Goryeo to do business with the Black Shark pirates.
And that’s enough for now.
In the future, when he has a greater advantage, he will further set foot in Korea.
Let this vassal state that betrayed Da Song surrender at his feet.
…
Jinling.
Two days ago, Dou Wei and Yang Feng arrived here successively.
As soon as Yang Feng came back, he was immediately taken down by the imperial guards and taken to prison.
But Dou Wei claimed that he was in poor health and was resting in the mansion.
For a moment, the entire Jinling seemed to be in the tranquility before the storm.
“Speaking of which, in fact, there are only seven major clans left in Dasong. As for the Ma clan, it’s not worth mentioning. This is what it is now.” Han Zheng raised his little finger.
It was still Dou’s villa located outside Jinling City.
At this moment, Dou Wei was in high spirits, chatting and laughing happily with Han Zheng, Liang Cheng and the others, he didn’t look sick at all.
“Hahaha…” The others laughed, with disdain for Mahan in their eyes.
After laughing for a while, Han Zheng suddenly asked: “Prime Minister Dou invited me here this time, I don’t know what advice you have, it must not be for drinking and dancing?”
Others stopped laughing and looked at Dou Wei.
This Dou Wei pretended to be sick at home for two days, but secretly sent them a message.
Dou Wei waved off the singing and dancing, her gestures were full of confidence.
His eyes swept over Han Zheng, Liang Kai, Xiao Cheng, Wang Zi’an, Fan Xinglun, and Xie Duan, and he said bluntly: “This time, I have asked you to come here because there is a big matter to discuss, and this matter will concern our seven families. Life and death in the future.”
Han Zheng and the others looked at each other a few times, feeling puzzled.
Compared with previous gatherings, Dou Wei seemed extra excited this time.
They don’t know what happened to the head of the Dou family.
Seeing that everyone was stunned by his words for a moment, Dou Wei said slowly: “This peace negotiation has been completed. Before Mule Hongzhen kills King Yan, there will be no more war between the Dasong court and Beidi. Everyone, with such a good opportunity, don’t fight with him again.” How long will it take for the royal family to show off!” When the
six of them heard this, they all paled slightly.
There are also people who have similar thoughts with Dou Wei, and their eyes are flickering.
