Chapter 931: Xiao Wan Guoshu
Lao Zheng has already personally led the army to set off, Khotan and Gumo have 10,000 allied troops, plus horse thieves, and the troops in his hands are also more than 10,000, this level of war, Tang Ning does not need to worry about it at all.
The battlefield is Lao Zheng's home field, Da Yue's crusading army has 35,000, maybe it needs to be taken seriously, only 10,000, he just needs to wait for his good news here.
The new city is already under construction, and when it is completed, it will be able to accommodate at least 10,000 people.
At that time, a magnificent palace will be built in the center of the new city, although it is shabby compared with the imperial palace of Chen Guo, it can no longer be shabby, but it is ten times better than the earthen house where he lives now.
Downing heard Bahar say that the Western Regions are not only full of bitter cold and heat, but also have beautiful oases here, and the scenery is not inferior to anywhere.
He turned his head to look at Tang Yaoyao, who was eating grapes, and asked, "Actually, the Western Regions are not bad, if you are bored living in Qiandi in the future, you can come here to live for a while." ”
Tang Yaoyao stuffed a grape into his mouth, gave him a blank look, and asked, "Do you really plan to be the emperor here?" ”
Tang Ning looked at the clear sky and said, "I just realize now that the feeling of being an emperor is actually quite good......
Tang Yaoyao snorted lightly and asked, "Dear Your Majesty, how big of a harem do you plan to build here?" ”
Tang Ning pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Forget it, being an emperor is very tiring, I have to deal with political affairs, improve the national economy and people's livelihood, and worry about foreign invasions, I would rather live in the mountains with you......"
These are also Tang Ning's heartfelt words, if it weren't for Xiaowan to pick up his mother and cousin, he would not want to be the head of this Western Regions alliance at all.
Not to mention the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, he has to worry about his heart all the time, worrying that those superpowers will hit them with their ideas, not only that, but the transfer of power is also troublesome, if he encounters a situation like Emperor Chen, he is afraid that he will be angry with that group of rebels......
He didn't have any nostalgia for the power of the leader of the allies, but just thought that Sadiq could send the message back earlier, and Lao Zheng would solve the alliance between Khotan and Gumo as soon as possible......
At this time, on the vast desert, an army of 10,000 people was struggling to move forward.
The combined forces of Khotan and Gumo, this time on the order of Da Yue, crusaded against the allies in the Western Regions, and it has been half a month.
It is not easy to march on the desert, you have to withstand the scorching sun during the day, and you have to resist the severe cold at night, if you are unfortunate enough to encounter a sandstorm, the whole army may be destroyed.
Their luck was not bad, although the weather was very cruel, but they did not encounter any major disasters, Rao was so, after more than half a month of driving, everyone was already exhausted, and their faces showed the color of wind and dust.
A general walked to the rear, looked at the lord of Khotan, who was with the army, and said: "A hundred miles ahead, it is the end of the country." ”
After marching for so long, finally approaching the goal, the lord of Khotan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Order the whole army, rest in place, recuperate, attack tomorrow and ...... end"
The army camped in place, the moonlight was not bright tonight, the moon hid behind the heavy dark clouds, there was silence on the desert, and the wolf howl from time to time made the silent night even colder.
The night was pitch dark, and even the spies in the army didn't notice that there were countless figures slowly approaching under the cover of the night in all directions, within a radius of ten miles from them.
……
In the city of Wu Greed, inside the palace, the lords of all countries sat below, and Tang Ning held a battle report in his hand.
The night before yesterday, Lao Zheng commanded more than 10,000 people composed of allies and horse thieves, a hundred miles away from the end of the country, night attack on the enemy camp, Khotan and Gumo coalition army was taken by surprise, grain and grass were burned, water sources were cut off, in the dark night, after the elders' special poison arrows were shot into the camp, the billowing poisonous smoke ignited, and a small half of the enemy was solved.
The rest of the people were frightened, they couldn't form a formation at all, under the orderly charge of the allies, they soon collapsed, in the chaos, the leading Khotan and Gumo lords, were also captured by the allies, the opponent's army was leaderless, and finally the allies captured 5,000 people, and the rest of the people scattered and fled......
Tang Ning looked at the anxious and expectant eyes of the country lords below, handed over the battle report, and said, "Take a look......
Although this war report was written in Chinese characters, many of these lords knew Chinese, and a few of them had studied in Guozijian when they were young, so they could naturally understand Chinese characters.
Those who didn't understand, after the explanations of those people, also showed ecstasy on their faces.
"Win!"
"We actually won against Khotan and Gumo!"
"This is the defensive force left in the rear by Otsuki, and before defeating Xiao Wan, they will no longer be able to divide their strength to deal with us......"
……
The faces of the lords of the countries were excited, and a red light appeared, the names of Khotan and Gumo were like thunder to these small countries, and they never thought that one day, these first-class powers would be defeated at their hands......
However, everyone also knew why such a change had happened in them, and their eyes looked at the figure in front of them, and their eyes were full of reverence.
Tang Ning waited until everyone had settled down before he said, "Now that the threat of Gumo and Khotan has been removed, I have an idea that I want to discuss with you. ”
And the last lord stood up and said, "The first monarch said that it is okay. ”
Tang Ning looked at everyone and said: "As we all know, Khotan and Gumo are subordinates of Da Yue, although we defeated the Yu Khotan Gumo coalition this time, but we will also offend Da Yue even more, and when they end the stalemate with Xiao Wan and free their hands, they will still do something to our allies." ”
Tang Ning's voice fell, and when the translation of the lords of the countries was completed, their faces showed a look of worry.
They can defeat Khotan and Gumo, but they can't be Da Yue's opponents, and one Da Yue's strength is worth ten Khotan and Gumo combined.
When Da Yue freed his hands, it was not 10,000 troops that crusaded against the allies, but 100,000.
Tang Ning looked at everyone's worried faces, and said: "But you don't have to worry, Da Yue is now restrained by Xiao Wan, and he has no time to take care of him, and he will not come to deal with us in a short time, but even so, we can't sit still, I think, now that Da Yue's army is outside and the country is empty, it is our opportunity, if we can break through Dayue City in one fell swoop and capture the lord ......of Da Yue, we can never suffer from it in the future."
Tang Ning's voice fell, and several lords who could understand Chinese had already opened their mouths wide, and they were stunned.
It's not enough to defeat Yu Khotan and Gu Mo, he actually wants to do something to Da Yue?
You know, Dayue is a superpower with 100,000 mercenaries and a population of hundreds of thousands!
These countries, with a population of only hundreds or thousands, don't even dare to dream of such thoughts, even the current allies of the Western Regions are far from Dayue, attacking Dayue, wouldn't it be an egg hitting a stone and killing themselves?
Tang Ning looked at them and said: "According to reliable information, most of the victorious soldiers of Dayue were restrained by Xiao Wan, and Khotan and Gumo were also defeated by us. ”
Simply taking Da Yue together is Tang Ning's idea not long ago, anyway, the allies have already offended Da Yue to death, and once Da Yue is free in the future, these small countries will still be in big trouble.
It is better to take advantage of his illness to kill him, and take advantage of the fact that the soldiers of Dayue are abroad and the country is empty, so as to seize their power and never suffer in the future.
After more than a dozen lords discussed fiercely, their faces began to glow.
Obviously, they also realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, most of the Great Moon soldiers and horses were outside, and although the remaining forces in the country were not weak, they were not the opponents of the current Western Regions allies.
If you can cooperate with the outside, there is really a great opportunity to subvert the big moon......
That's Da Yue, one of the most powerful countries in the Western Regions, if the allies can annex Da Yue, they will become one of the superpowers in the Western Regions alongside Xiao Wan and Wusun, how brilliant and glorious is this?
And the eyes of the last lord of the country were bright, and he said: "What the first monarch said is right, this is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as far as I know, Dayue has annexed many countries in the past two years, and the people of those countries are classified as inferior pariahs, and let the Dayue people bully, these people are quite numerous, if we can send spies to infiltrate Dayue City and provoke these people, we will definitely be able to cause a lot of turmoil in Dayue City......"
"The Great Moon army is pinned down by Xiao Wan and can't leave, even if the allies attack the Great Moon City, they won't have time to rescue, when the time comes, once we take control of the Great Moon City, they will cut off supplies, and there is no other choice but to surrender......"
……
After Tang Ning raised this topic, it obviously gave them a lot of inspiration, and everyone discussed it for a while, and they really came up with a detailed plan.
Tang Ning looked at everyone, and said in his heart that they can sit on the throne of the country, but they are not mediocre, according to their plan, they don't even need to use the old beggar and Lao Zheng to do it, and Da Yue may be disintegrated from the inside and outside at the same time.
Just as everyone continued to discuss, Bahar suddenly walked in quickly from outside the door, looked at Tang Ning, respectfully handed over something, and said solemnly: "Lord, Xiao Wan's national letter ......"
