Chapter 415: The Ambition to Conquer the World
A bone is thrown out, just watch the hound wait for it to arrive, for the gamekeeper Liu Zhenglong, it is not a problem for this bone to fall into anyone's hands in the end, but for the prince Liu Haotian, it is different.
In this game, the real layout person is the crown prince Liu Haotian, the future son of the Han Dynasty wants to prove that he has the ability to rule the world, which is also made up after Wang Yin's inspiration.
Everyone has their own governing style, Liu Haotian is no exception, to be honest, he is not satisfied with many of his father's governing styles, but he doesn't dare to say it, and he doesn't want to change.
But after talking with Wang Yin, Liu Haotian understood that now his father is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, although his father will abdicate at this time, he may not be able to give himself a ride. Instead of letting himself be submissive, this is obviously not what his father expected.
The plan of killing three soldiers with two peaches was conceived by Liu Haotian, and he did it, but this time Liu Zhenglong, the son of heaven, became a chess piece, but the son of heaven was also willing to become his son's chess piece, and made certain modifications to the details.
Now that the Jin Kingdom has not been destroyed, he has begun to work on the problem of the grassland tribes, which is what Liu Zhenglong wants to see, and the prince's foresight will point out the way forward for the Han Dynasty.
Yeluzhi, Yelumawu, Xiao Gan, which one wins in the end, in fact, the last one left is not the winner, and the three of them will not understand this.
The emperor of the Han Dynasty finally waited for the first person to come to inquire about his style, the former Empress Dowager of the Liao State, Xiao Puxiannu, this beautiful beauty of the Xi clan is in her forties and nearly fifty, and she has not slept for a long time, of course, not now. However, she came for another thing, that is, for Xiao Yunyan and Xiao Gan.
After all, Xiao Puxian has been the queen and the queen mother, and she sees the problem farther than Xiao Gan and Xiao Yunyan, she bluntly told Xiao Yunyan that this matter is not something that Xiao Gan can figure out, and in the end, it must be His Majesty's dictatorship, and it is no good to think too much.
Xiao Yunyan didn't know this truth, but now that his brother has come to this point, it is no longer a question of whether he wants to or not, even if he doesn't fight, he may not necessarily retreat with his whole body, after all, Yelu Ma Wu and Yelu Zhi are all staring at this position, it doesn't mean that they can get out of the whole body without fighting.
In the end, Xiao Puxian said: "Since you have decided to take this path, let's go on without hesitation." This time, I'm going to probe His Majesty's tone to see what it looks like in the end, and then I'll make a decision. Since you are here, don't think about going back, you stay, it's good for you, Xiao Gan, and the entire Xi clan. ”
"But, I, I'm not mentally prepared yet."
"Mental preparation, what is there to prepare, you just need to remember that it is good to satisfy Your Majesty, nothing else matters."
After all, Xiao Puxian is a person who has come over, and when she speaks, she is unscrupulous, just to ask Xiao Yunyan to hand herself over, and she has talked a lot, a lot, this day.
As a queen, Xiao Puxian, the queen mother, of course knows the emperor's mental tricks, and she can vaguely guess that this is two peaches killing three soldiers, which can't be told to Xiao Yunyan, but she can try to do something for the Xi family.
Sure enough, when Xiao Yunyan, who looked like a fairy, visited the Son of Heaven, Xiao Yunyan's beauty suddenly attracted the attention of the Son of Heaven.
Without saying a few words, Xiao Yunyan was sent to the harem to bathe, obviously going to bed tonight. But Xiao Pu stayed behind, if she had, she would have to explain it to the Son of Heaven, not for herself, but for the entire Xi clan.
Liu Zhenglong, the son of heaven, was able to guess what Xiao Puxian meant, and he said with a smile: "It's all old husbands and wives, there is nothing that can't be said, just speak directly if you have anything, I won't blame you." ”
"May I ask Your Majesty, did the two peaches kill the three soldiers?"
"Yes." Liu Zhenglong, the son of heaven, has always been frank and unwilling, unwilling to hide it, especially in front of his own woman, he said with a wry smile: "I am the founding king, the iron-blooded king, and I am destined to use the sword in my hand to open up territory for the Han Dynasty." Laying a foundation for future generations, the crown prince has a weak personality and is destined to be the king of success, so I will do my best to eradicate all unstable factors, for thousands of years, the northern nomads have been harassing the Central Plains. Especially after Shi Jingjiao, a brainless second goods of the Later Jin Dynasty, handed over the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun to the Khitan, the Central Plains was clouded with war, which eventually led to the destruction of the Song Dynasty. I will never allow this to happen, so I must pull out this thorn. ”
"There is a way for the concubines, there is no need to kill the three of them, and it can also ensure the stability of the north." Xiao Puxian climbed to the knees of Liu Zhenglong, the son of heaven, and carefully said her thoughts,
"I see." The Son of Heaven closed his eyes comfortably, in this regard, Xiao Puxian is still skilled, and she is among the best in the harem.
Xiao Yunyan is obviously not an ordinary person, she said what she thought in her heart the morning of the second day when she was pampered, this big beauty and little bird snuggled in the arms of the Son of Heaven like a human, she said delicately: "Your Majesty, under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister." This north, in the end, is still His Majesty's territory, or His Majesty's heirs rule better, my brother finally went to war, Xi warriors are a fighting nation, born to conquer the world, do not know farming, and are not good at animal husbandry, let them be the sword in the hands of His Majesty, go to conquer the world. ”
"Don't you know that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics?"
"The concubine is guilty."
"If you give birth to a prince, this is not impossible."
"The concubine is going to ride a horse."
The beauty of the grassland galloped on horseback, and that kind of wildness was destined to be incomparable to the beauty of the Central Plains.
The four major corps fought separately, and there was no unified deployment or unified tactics, and even when the troops were dispatched, they did not have the same time, and the only thing that was the same was that the combat plan was reported to the General Staff, and the General Staff set the time for the start of the war and the strategy for the war.
The Fifth Corps was not in the plan, but it also set off quietly, the coach Hebron, the deputy marshal Boyan, the pair should be the last expedition, after this war, Hebron retired.
Originally, in the entire battle plan, the Fifth Corps did not participate in the battle, but this time it was requested by the crown prince Liu Haotian to monitor the Fourth Corps and ensure that there would be no mistakes in the plan of killing the third soldier.
Boyan said to his uncle Hebron: "After this war, I want to go to Nandu to meet my sister and nephew. ”
"I'm afraid it's impossible, after this war, you will be the marshal of the Fifth Corps, and you will shoulder the task of the Western Expedition, in the empire, there is no will, the marshal cannot leave his post without permission, and he can't go to the southern capital, the eastern capital, the imperial capital, this is the iron law of the Han Dynasty, we are soldiers and cannot be violated, otherwise those civil officials will not let us go, you must know that those literati stare at us with wide eyes every day, and we can't hit the barrel of the gun ourselves."
"Didn't you say that the Han Dynasty established the country with military force, how can civilian officials still be powerful and blessed on the heads of military generals." Boyan has been fighting on the battlefield on the Western Front, he has hardly been to the Central Plains, he has never been to the imperial capital, and he has not even met His Majesty the Emperor in vain, and he is not clear about a lot of information, and he is even more ignorant of the affairs in the court.
Hebron has never liked to talk about this, but today he decided to teach Boyan a lesson, he said: "It is the military generals who fight the world, and His Majesty is also the commander of the three armies, and he will fight all his life. But it is the civil officials who govern the world, and the crown prince who will take over the throne in the future is also a literati. Moreover, His Majesty seized the world with military force, and he would never allow another hero to appear in the world to seize the world, so if the military generals do not hand over their military power, they are destined to be purged. ”
Boyan is a military genius, especially in the cavalry corps, he is even better than his uncle Hebron. It's just that he is far away from the court, and he really doesn't know anything about the intrigue in the court, and he doesn't know what's going on at all.
Boyan's two sisters are in the palace, and they can be said to be relatives of the emperor, he is loyal to the Han and the Han Emperor, and he has never had other ideas.
Although the marching speed of the army was very slow, Hebron still allowed Boyan to go to the eastern capital to meet the Son of Heaven first, as for whether he could go to the southern capital, it was hard to say, after all, it was not for him to figure out.
Time flies, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Boyan has grown from a twelve-year-old boy to an excellent military general, which makes Liu Zhenglong feel that he is indeed not young.
Liu Zhenglong held a banquet to entertain the deputy marshal of the Fifth Corps, and the commanders of the first, second, and third corps were all accompanied, giving him enough face, if it weren't for Xiao Gan, the commander of the Fourth Corps, who returned to the station, he would have accompanied him.
At the beginning, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Gao Zhong didn't know why His Majesty paid so much attention to Boyan, and it wasn't until the next day that everyone knew that it was to let Boyan teach everyone a lesson, and the content was the battle of the cavalry's large corps.
At first, everyone didn't think it was happening, but the more they listened, the more they felt that this Boyan was not necessarily, and the more they listened, the more they felt that this guy was powerful, fortunately he was not an enemy, otherwise in his current state, he might not be able to bargain when he encountered the Fifth Corps on the battlefield.
At this time, everyone understood that the terrible thing about the cavalry corps fighting, it was like a flood beast on the battlefield, once it was released, it could not be suppressed.
From the day the Fifth Corps was established, it was built by Heberon, and Boyan witnessed the Fifth Corps sweeping the Western Regions, and it can be said that it was invincible in the Western Regions, with more than 100 large and small battles in more than ten years, and it can be said that it maintained a complete victory, and every time it was crushed by the enemy, of course, this is also related to the combat effectiveness of the Fifth Corps and the low combat effectiveness of the countries in the Western Regions. However, the countries of the Western Regions are fighting on their own soil, and their advantages are obvious, and in this case, military command capability is very important.
The biggest shortcoming of the Han Emperor was the lack of tactics for the cavalry corps to fight, and this time he took the initiative to be a student, listened very carefully, and took notes very well, which set an example for the other three marshals.
The Fifth Corps is destined to sweep the northwest in the future, this time Liu Zhenglong, the son of the Han Dynasty, took the initiative to listen to the class, and the hormone passed on a message, that is, the Han Dynasty is destined to march westward, and it seems that His Majesty will also drive the expedition in person.
From the abdication of the throne after His Majesty announced the destruction of the Jin Kingdom before, to this lecture, and the future of the royal conquest, the three marshals suddenly read out an unusual atmosphere.
It seems that the national policy of the Han Dynasty to establish a military country in the future will not change in a short period of time, and the territory of the Han Dynasty will be unprecedentedly large, and it is no longer as simple as satisfying the unification of the Central Plains and the occupation of the Jin State. To the north, you will walk all over the grassland, and to the west, you will march west to the Western Liao, which is thousands of miles away. The southwest will occupy Western Xia, Tibet, and Dali, and will not allow the existence of vassal states. To the south, Annan will be defeated, and then continue to the south, to the east is not only Goryeo, but also those island countries in the East China Sea, it seems that Liu Yu ran to the East China Sea is a very sad thing.
Liu Yu went to sea, yes, it was a sad thing at the beginning, otherwise how could the Han Iron Cavalry allow this pseudo-Qi emperor to slip away from his nose?
For various reasons, Liu Zhenglong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, did not think of letting the Han sailors occupy those island countries in the East China Sea, which does not mean that he does not attach importance to this place where silver is produced. Once Liu Yu occupied the islands of the East China Sea, then the Han Navy after destroying Goryeo would go east.
It's a pity that Liu Yu won't know about this, but even if he knows, there is no way, so he can only hold on.
There is one thing that everyone does not understand, why His Majesty made a huge, rotating round ball, named it a globe, telling everyone that the earth is round, even if it is far from the south, it can still reach its destination. Not only that, the world is still very big, and there are many countries, and what the Han Iron Cavalry wants to do is to conquer the world. In a word, the places where the sun's rays can shine are the territories that the Han will conquer.
Since ancient times, everyone's perception is that the sky is round and the place is round, and now that the earth is round, why doesn't that person fall, the earth is round, and what is under the earth, these things are too incredible. Although it was incredible, everyone didn't dare to oppose it, after all, it was the Son of Heaven who said it, but everyone didn't believe it.
Liu Zhenglong never wanted to convince the people below that the land was round, he just needed to believe that there was a large territory outside the Han Dynasty, and he needed the Han Iron Horse to conquer it.
Only a large enough territory can satisfy the generals' desire to conquer the world, as for whether it will sweep the world, it is not the concern of these generals, they just know that as long as the war continues, then the status of the generals cannot be shaken.
The ambition to conquer the world, with the arrival of Boyan, was completely activated.
