Chapter 575: All parties wait and see

The external environment of Daheng is bad, and all countries are full of malice towards the Daheng people, which in turn forces the Daheng people to further improve their military strength, and even aggravates the malice of the Daheng people towards foreign countries, especially the six northern countries and the southern Danna Kingdom, Kasi Kingdom, and Olisa Empire.

Lin Ziran understands these situations, so there are necessary preparations.

But the reason why we say that we are preparing is that we represent the future.

Now, for all Daheng people, for Lin Ziran, the unification war is still a top priority.

Lin Ziran, who was sitting in the rear, learned that the front-line troops had seized the Jingzhou Machinery Bureau, and that the naval forces had also blocked the combined fleet of the two states at the Quping Naval Base, and sent a letter of condolence to the army and navy units on the front line.

The letter highly affirmed and praised the fighting spirit of the front-line troops for the country and the people, congratulated them on their achievements, and encouraged them to continue to display the fighting spirit of not being afraid of hardship and sacrifice, conquer the capital area and even the entire Jingzhou at an early date, lay a solid foundation for the subsequent reunification war, and lay the foundation for the reunification of Daheng.

At the same time, a series of meritorious soldiers in the early stage of the battle were promoted and rewarded.

After receiving the letter of condolence from Lin Ziran, Liang Chenglei and other generals of the Northern Expedition Force were naturally smiling!

Lin Ziran affirmed their achievements in this series of battles and encouraged them to continue to work hard, which is naturally a good thing.

Many people are already thinking about how to write their persuasion excerpts, and at the same time imagining what titles they can get by then.

Because after conquering the Jingshi, it is time to raise the agenda for the establishment of the Seventh Dynasty.

After the establishment of the new dynasty, according to the tradition of the Daheng people, it is natural to confer knighthoods on a large scale, and a new group of nobles will appear in the Daheng Empire at that time.

Even if now in Daheng, the nobles have long been without fiefdoms, and they don't even have too obvious political power, only a pension that is not very rich, but this is still a noble title and a manifestation of identity.

Many old nobles are also thinking about how to take refuge in Lin Ziran, in order to continue to maintain their titles in the new dynasty.

The aristocracy of the Daheng people is different from other countries, nominally hereditary, and is not affected by dynastic changes.

But in reality, the old aristocracy still needed to be recognized by the new dynasty.

Therefore, although many aristocratic families can be seen in Dahengli today, they have a history of thousands of years, and they are still standing after many dynasties.

However, the reason why these nobles who have gone through thousands of years can be passed down is because every time a new dynasty is established, they are on the right side, and they continue to recognize their titles after the new dynasty is established.

As for those nobles who stood on the wrong side, they have long disappeared into the long river of history.

Therefore, the aristocratic hereditary system of the Daheng people is a bit special, it seems to be hereditary, but it also needs to be recognized by the new dynasty.

Behind this special tradition, every time the old dynasty fell, and the flagship established by the new dynasty, countless nobles were eliminated.

Now the old nobles in Daheng naturally don't want their ancestral titles to be abolished, even if the current noble titles are useless, only annuities and symbolic reputations are left, but for many down-and-out aristocratic families, it is also very important to be able to obtain a noble annuity!

It is foreseeable that with the establishment of the Seventh Dynasty of Daheng, there will inevitably be a large number or even most of the old nobles who will be cut down, and only a small number of old nobles will be retained, such as Duke Meng, their family's title is estimated to be cut off, Lin Ziran married Meng Yuling, the daughter of Duke Meng's family.

But the vast majority of the old nobles probably won't be able to keep their titles!

And they couldn't resist Lin Ziran's unification wave, so many people wanted to join Lin Ziran as soon as possible and strive to keep their titles.

Not only the old aristocracy, but in fact, many businessmen and other powerful people have already begun to stand on Lin Ziran's side.

Even many feudal towns in the northern states are already thinking about surrendering to Lin Ziran.

If you surrender to Lin Ziran, you will definitely not be able to be a feudal town, and don't expect to continue to lead the army, but at least you can keep the subsequent glory and wealth, and it is possible to continue to be an official in politics.

This situation is similar to when Lin Ziran swept the six southern states before, and many feudal towns chose to surrender to Cheng in the end, in order to keep the last glory and wealth, rather than resisting to death and finally dying and annihilating.

But now they are just shaking, and now they are still waiting, waiting for what?

Battle of Gyeongju!

More precisely, the Battle of Jingshi!

They needed to know that the Daheng Unification Army would be able to completely defeat the three-state coalition army and then capture the Jingshi.

This is not only because the political significance of the city of Jingshi is too large, but also because this may be the last battle between the Tri-State Coalition Army and the Daheng Unification Army.

Since the defeat of the Southern Front, the Sanzhou Coalition Army has simply given up the resistance in the central and southern parts of the country, and gathered all the forces in the area of the Beijing Division, not only the troops of Jingzhou itself, but even the troops of Gaoqing Prefecture and Ningwu Prefecture have continued to move south to reinforce the Beijing Division.

As of July 2, the three-state coalition army has gathered more than 100,000 troops in the Beijing area!

This figure is not easy for the three-state coalition army, you must know that in a southern front battle, they lost 250,000 troops, and then lost at least 20,000 or 30,000 people in several small and medium-sized battles in the south of Jingzhou.

The Battle of the Jingzhou Machine Bureau lost nearly 20,000 troops.

The losses before and after this have already reached 300,000, and the loss of weapons and equipment is even more.

Under such heavy losses, it is not easy to raise 100,000 rear-loading rifles, and there are more than 100 rear-loading artillery pieces for the defense of the Beijing Division.

And this is also the last army that the Tri-State Coalition Army can mobilize, and the Battle of Jingshi is already their last resistance.

In this case, the Jingshi can be said to have attracted the attention of the whole world, not only many people in the six southern states under the control of the Daheng Unification Army are concerned, many people in the seven northern states, and even those feudal towns themselves are also concerned, and even other countries are also concerned about this upcoming Jingshi Battle.

Some of the countries that have diplomatic personnel stationed in Daheng have even visited the Jingshi City in person, ready to observe this battle that is destined to have far-reaching effects up close.

Not only the official attention, but also the people, many large newspapers have sent reporters to the Beijing Division, and it will not take long for the news of the Battle of the Beijing Division and even some of the details to spread throughout the Blue Star!
