Chapter 61: The Movement of Troops (II)
The general Rong Yan had returned to his seat and sat down, and the meeting continued.
Mr. Lu Zhonglian only asked:
"Your Majesty, is it appropriate to tell the ministers about the situation of Su Xiang and the generals in various countries?"
After Su Dai and Jiang Qu returned to Jidu, they were just in time for Ji Kang's father, King Xiaocheng, to pass away.
The two only briefly reported to Ji Kang and did not elaborate.
The conquest of the army is imminent, and the attitude of various countries towards Yan is very important at this time.
Prime Minister Lu Zhonglian's suggestion is also the proper meaning of this meeting, and Ji Kang has nothing to do.
Ji Kang said to Su Dai and Jiang Qu:
"Prime Minister Su and Prime Minister General, the two of you will tell the widow and the ministers of the cabinet the details of the situation of the two of you going to various countries."
Su Dai first talked about his experience of going to Zhao to lobby with Jiang Qu.
Then he explained in detail the situation of his envoy to Korea and Qin, and the meeting between Han Wangran and Qin Wang Yingji.
Prime Minister Qu talked to Ji Kang and others about his trip to Wei and Chu.
"Wang, when the minister went to Wei, Wei Wangyu personally met with Weichen. When Weichen presented the gifts given by the former king and the crown prince to the king of Wei, Wang Yu of Wei was very happy. To the minister, I am willing to become a friendly country with my Yan country and not invade each other......"
"As for the State of Chu, it is completely expected by my king and your ministers. Xiong Wan, the king of Chu, and Ling Yin Huangxie, just wanted our country to recognize its occupation of Lu. At that time, at the suggestion of our king, the minister acquiesced in the matter. ”
"King Xiong Wan of Chu and Ling Yin Huangxie were very happy at that time. I also promised to form a friendly country with my Yan State, and hoped that my Yan State could help Chu State resist Qin State at a critical time, and the minister only said that he would definitely report to my king after returning to China......"
Su Dai added: "Your Majesty, the minister sent his eldest husband Liao Shan to Linzi, the capital of Qi, and just returned to Jidu yesterday, saying that the queen of Qi is in charge, all state affairs are decided, and everything is under the order of the king of Qi. ”
"This queen reuses her own relatives, let her younger brother Housheng control the government, and squeeze out the talented people of the Qi country. This Hou Sheng can be described as insatiable, seeing that the first king and the crown prince gave the queen and Qi Wang Jian, two sets of glassware, actually openly asked Liao Shan for it. ”
Everyone was very amused when they heard this.
Ji Kang smiled and asked Mr. Su Dai, "What is the result?" ”
Mr. Su Dai laughed and reported to Ji Kangyu: "At that time, Liao Shan said that this thing is precious, and there are not many in my Yan Kingdom. When he returns to his country, he will play my king again, prepare a set for him, and send someone to send it to him. ”
After hearing Mr. Sudai's words, everyone burst out laughing.
Mr. Su Dai continued: "The king, it is Mr. Xunzi, the sacrificial wine of the Jixia School Palace, and he is also the queen and the king of Qi who have written several times, saying that the country is a good policy. However, none of his opinions were adopted by the queen and Qi Wangjian. ”
This made Mr. Xunzi very sad, and after the New Year, Mr. Xunzi resigned to Qi Wangjian, no longer served as the sacrificial wine of the school palace, and went to Chu to travel. The entire court and people of Qi were very dissatisfied with the employment of the queen. ”
Ji Kang sighed and said, "Mr. Xunzi is a great talent in the world, but it's a pity that he didn't come to my Yan country. The widow really hopes that all the good talents in the world can come to my Yan Kingdom and conspire with the great plan of the world! It's a pity, sigh! ”
Mr. Lu Zhonglian, the prime minister from Qi State, shook his head again and again when he heard this, and sighed for a long time about the situation of his homeland.
Now the army of Yan is about to attack the Qi country, and the Qi country is still like this!
The cabinet minister will be a ditch, and he patted Ji Kang's "sycophant" and said: "My king loves the talents of the world, and everyone knows it." When people with lofty ideals today, who does not know that when the king was the prince, he made a poem "Short Song Xing", and the ministers and people of the world obeyed it. ”
Ji Kang smiled, felt very comfortable in his heart, and got drunk.
All the ministers raised their eyes in surprise and looked at Jiangqu, and found that this old man was actually arrogant, and he looked like everyone was drunk and sober. Everyone said in their hearts: "Jiangqu Lao'er's "sycophant skills" are so good! ”
Seeing this, Pavilion Drama Xin glared at the old man Jiangqu fiercely.
Hurriedly coughed a few times, and said to Ji Kang:
"Your Majesty, it seems that the external atmosphere of my Yan Kingdom is also more favorable to my Yan Kingdom. At present, it seems that King Yingji of Qin will not see my Yan State annexing Qi State, and Qin State is the most likely country to send troops. ”
"But the minister thinks that as long as our army can break through Linzi as soon as possible and take the Qi country, as General Rong said, even the Qin State will be powerless against my Yan State, and it can't do anything with my Yan State."
"On the contrary, what the minister is worried about is that after my Yan State destroys the Qi State, all countries will have a new view of our Yan State. If I want to keep my low profile before, it's impossible! ”
After listening to Ju Xin's words, everyone agreed with Ju Xin's opinion.
They looked at Ji Kang together, wanting to see their king's attitude towards this matter.
In the previous days, Yan Guo had always followed the nine-character policy of "building high walls, accumulating grain, and slowing down the struggle for hegemony" as mentioned by Ji Kang, and adopted the strategy of "Taoguang and Raising Obscurity" mentioned by Ji Kang.
Therefore, the countries of the Central Plains basically didn't care much about the Yan Kingdom. Although Ji Kang expanded his territory in Liaodi and destroyed the national counties, in the eyes of the Central Plains countries, this has nothing to do with the countries after all, and it is nothing.
It was only the year before last that Yan sent troops to aid Zhao, killed the Qin army's generals Meng Wei and Sima Terrier, and defeated the Qin army's 150,000 army, which made other countries vigilant, and their attitudes towards Yan were obviously different.
Ji Kang didn't answer immediately, but just habitually came to the map again.
Looking at the map on the wall, I couldn't calm down for a long time.
I can't help but think of my previous life, when after the rise of China, I drew the "East China Sea Air Defense Zone" and put forward the "One Belt, One Road" policy. It is facing Western countries, led by the world's largest power, which are suppressing, slandering, and preventing at all levels.
Under these circumstances, many domestic "public knowledge" in China believed that China's foreign policy at that time was reckless, and its domestic military spending was too high. We should continue to adopt the national policy of "taoguang and nurture obscurity" to avoid such a situation.
Ji Kang thinks it's all "". Is it possible?
At that time, China's economy was already the second largest in the world in terms of exchange rates; In terms of average purchasing power, it is already the largest in the world. Whether it is foreign trade, or industrial manufacturing capacity and other aspects, it has also ranked first in the world.
Such a large economic volume, such a scale of industrial capacity.
How can you, how can you go to "taoguang and obscurity"?
At that time, China was known as the "infrastructure madman", but with the initial completion of the high-speed railway and highway network, as well as the completion of other major infrastructure projects, foreign development has become an inevitable choice.
Without the development of military power, it is even more impossible!
What does the world's largest country in terms of foreign trade rely on to ensure the interests of overseas China and the safety of its people?
What's more, in China at that time, the country had not yet been unified; In the west, there are still disputes with "Ah San" over more than 100,000 square kilometers of territory; Many islands in the South China Sea are also facing encroachment and encroachment by many neighboring countries.
If these problems are not solved, how can we achieve the rejuvenation of China?
In order to solve these thorny problems peacefully, it must also be backed by the national armed forces.
At this time, the external situation of Yan Kingdom was much better than Ji Kang's previous life.
With the development of the initial industrialization of Yanguo, the national strength of Yanguo has also increased rapidly in a short period of time.
Compared with the other six countries in the Central Plains, Yan's current national strength can be said to be among the best!
The national strength of the six countries in the Central Plains is now relatively low.
If Yan Guo does not seize the opportunity at this time, strengthen himself and realize the dream in his heart.
So, what's the point of coming to this era by yourself?
Ji Kang will always remember what a foreign leader said in his previous life:
"What is truth? The so-called truth is within the range of artillery. ”
Yes! His dream is to be in the hooves of the army under his command, and in the hands of the swords of the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Ji Kang's eyes couldn't help but squint slightly.
To his own ministers, he said slowly: "If you can't keep a low profile, you won't keep it!" ”
After a pause, he said: "With the current national strength of my Yan Kingdom, it is impossible to hide behind the grass forever and be a rabbit. The most important thing now is that according to the plan of my Yan country, it is the right time to go south to destroy its Qi country! ”
Turning around, Ji Kang said coldly again:
"Someone, draft an edict. Ling Wang Shi and Wu Yangjing led the third, fourth, and tenth armies of the army; Ling Lejian and Bo Wang led the Fifth Army of the Army and the First and Second Armies of the Navy. It is necessary to launch an attack on March 16. ”
"Order the Army's Second, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Armies, as well as the first batch of reserve armies in Youbeiping, Wuyang, Zhongyang, Hejian, Liaodong, Liaoxi, Liaonan, and Hancheng, to be on standby at any time to support the front-line army."
The six ministers all stood up, bowed down and said to Ji Kang: "Obey the king's edict." ”
Ji Kang looked at General Rong and said, "General Rong." ”
Rong Yan snapped his legs together, clasped his hands into fists and bowed down, "Your Majesty, the minister is here." ”
"General Rong, you can get up now, go to the river, and personally preside over the battle of alignment. The battle situation is changing rapidly, and the battle in front of you, you can discuss and decide with the generals, and you don't have to report to the widow, and the widow and the court will never interfere with you. ”
"Your Majesty, the ministers understand, and the ministers obey the edict."
"General Rong, you will always remember that the widow and the ministers of the court, the court officials, and even the entire Yan Kingdom will be your backing, and you can let it go. Handful...... Destroy the country of Qi to the widows. ”
After speaking, Ji Kang bowed deeply to Rong Yan.
The other ministers also followed Ji Kang and bowed deeply to Rong Yan.
"Your Majesty, the general will be able to set off now. Please wait for the good news from the king, the ministers, and the front-line soldiers! ”
Rong Yi bowed in return, turned around, and walked out.
With the edict of Yan Wang Ji Kang was issued.
From this time on, the entire Yan Kingdom had entered a wartime state.
The entire Yan Kingdom is like "a machine" that has begun to run at high speed!
