Su Chi's words were to trick Zhao Ji into being a mediocre gentleman who was waiting for death. If it were a year and a half in the morning, Zhao Ji would definitely send Su Chi to Haizhou to gnaw at the old man when he heard this.

But now, he actually thinks so.

It's too hard to fight! Oh, it's too hard for Zhao Ji. For Wu Haogu and Zhang Yuan, it is not difficult at all.

Now you let Zhao Ji find a way to regain the lost territory in Hedong by himself, it is impossible, absolutely impossible. You can't do it by spending tens of thousands! But if you want to let Wu Haogu and Zhang Yuan send troops, the Liao State may be defeated by them in a few months......

But what about after the collapse of the Liao State? Who is going to clean up Wu Haogu and Zhang Yuan? Han Xiaoxuan and Uncle Zhang? But who will clean them up after the fight?

Zhao Ji now also knows that if he doesn't give power to Han Xiaoxuan and Zhang Shuye, these two goods can only be given away. How many soldiers have been killed, how many soldiers have been killed! But if the power is given to them, how are they different from Wu Haogu and Zhang Yuan?

So Zhao Ji is a little disheartened now. He didn't know what to do, he lay down and didn't move, lived a good life, drew some pictures and wrote when he had time, studied the probability with Li Qingzhao, and cultivated the Tao with Guo Jing and Lin Lingsu, but he also enjoyed it.

"Your Majesty," Su Chi sighed, "There are some things that cannot be forced. The weak soldiers of the imperial court and the strong soldiers of the feudal towns are not unique to our dynasty, and the same was true of the Tang Dynasty back then. The reason for this is also difficult to explain. However, Wu Haogu, Zhang Yuan, Han Xiaoxuan, Zhi Kexing and others are not An Lushan and Shi Siming after all. As long as the court is appeased, they can still be used to maintain the situation.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Western Army, the Shuofang Army, the Kaifeng New Army, and the Lingzhou Gao Family were also loyal to the imperial court. As long as the imperial court can raise these soldiers well and prevent them from decaying, it will be enough to resist the hidden dangers of the feudal town. Moreover, Wu Haogu, Zhang Yuan, and Han Xiaoxuan were still contained by the Khitan, and they were not monolithic.

Therefore, the current situation can still be maintained, and it may not be unfavorable to the imperial court. Therefore, the minister suggested that His Majesty do nothing, just because he did not want to upset the current balance. ”

I see!

Zhao Ji nodded, "Su Qing is an old man, it's really rare." Do you have any other advice on things in the north? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Youzhou Wu Haogu, Hexi Zhangyuan, and Xiangzhou Han Xiaoxuan are still different." Su Chi said, "Among them, Wu Haogu is the strongest, and the threat to the imperial court is also the greatest!"

Although the reinforcement force is strong, the money and food are always insufficient. Therefore, I can only use the false learning of Tianli Sect to deceive people's minds, I am afraid that one day it will get out of control, and even Zhang Yuan will not be able to control it, and Zhang Yuan is old after all, once he dies, the situation in Hexi is unpredictable. So I have to guard against it!

And Han Xiaoxuan is the weakest of the three towns, with weak soldiers, few wealth, and no Tianli Avenue to deceive people's hearts. And his ability is also insufficient, and he will only fight again and again. Therefore, there is no threat to the imperial court, and the imperial court should reuse him and use it as a barrier. ”

Su was very close to Zhang Yuan and Wu Haogu earlier, and he was still a transfer envoy during the Battle of Anxi. Naturally, I know the details of the two groups of Zhang Yuan and Wu Haogu.

Because Zhang Yuan was too poor and was threatened by Hexi Buddhism and the Tianfang Sect in the Western Regions, he had to hold high the banner of the Tianli Sect, and his actions were inevitably vain. But because of this, the Hexi knights are also simple and brave, don't love money much, and are not afraid of death. Once you are bewitched by the Heavenly Doctrine, it will be very terrifying! Of course, Zhang Yuan won't do that, but Zhang Yuan is not young and his health is not good, so it is difficult to say what will happen in the future...... A bunch of poor ghost knights, who also believe in the vain Tianli Sect, God knows what will happen?

Wu Haogu's weakness is that in Su Chi's opinion, he is too rich!

Wu Haogu is rich, Wu Haogu's republican government is also rich, and the elders in the Youzhou Senate are also rich!

When fighting for the world, having money is an advantage, but it is also a burden. If you have money, you are easy to be comfortable, easy to look forward and backward, and you can't go out at critical moments.

In addition to being rich, Wu Haogu's group basically has no weaknesses. It is powerful in combat and well-equipped, with a balance of power on land and sea, and there is also a positivist, heavenly doctrine, and a civic republican system that looks very correct. So the threat to the imperial court is the greatest!

As for Han Xiaoxuan, there is a straw bale...... has fought many times in the north, what future can there be? From ancient times to the present, how can there be a founding emperor who can't fight?

However, although Han Xiaoxuan is a straw bale, it is also a tough straw bale, which can be used as a meat shield to cover the imperial court.

"Say, keep talking!" Zhao Ji's interest was completely up.

"The minister suggested that in the re-establishment of the Zhaoyi Army, with Han Zhi as the envoy of the festival, and Han Xiaoxuan as the retainer, he would govern Zhendingfu, Zhaozhou, Xingzhou, Cizhou, Xiangzhou and other prefectures. Make it the Khitan in the west, and the Youzhou in the north, as the barrier of the imperial court! Su Chi then said, "And the resetting of the Zhaoyi Army can also give Youzhou a reassurance, since the imperial court can allow the Han family to divide the Zhaoyi Army, it will naturally tolerate Youzhou." ”

"Good! Good! Zhao Ji smiled, "According to what Qing said, reset the Zhaoyi Army!" With the Zhaoyi Army in the north, Kaifeng Mansion can sit back and relax. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

……

Lushun Mansion, Lushun Kou (the name of Dalian Mansion was pointed out by the reader to come from the Western transliteration, so it was changed to Lushun Mansion).

The gunboat "Truth" on which Wu Haogu rode slowly sailed through the narrow channel between Tiger Tail and Golden Mountain, and entered the military port of Lushun Province.

It is also the location of the Lushun Naval Academy and the water camp of the Youzhou Republican Naval Fleet!

Because the Boundary River has a freezing period, it is not suitable to be a fleet home port. Although the Wudao Islands did not have a freezing period, the land area was small and too close to Penglai County, which was controlled by the Great Song Dynasty, so it was also not suitable to become a fleet home port.

Unlike the Youzhou Army, which is more ideologically firm, the Youzhou Navy has a complex composition, the soldiers are all mercenaries, and many of the officers are old shipwits from maritime merchant families. Just taking money to work, not really loyal to the republican government.

As for some of the officers who graduated from the Haizhou Naval Academy, their loyalty is also not as good as that of the students of the Tianjin Knight Academy. Most of them were born as maritime merchants, and their minds were far more active than knights and army officers from heroic backgrounds. Moreover, the quality of education in the Naval Academy also needs to be improved, and the students taught in the early years did not have a high level of sailing and sailing, and it was difficult for them to undertake heavy responsibilities.

Therefore, it is really reassuring to place such a complex naval fleet in a home port that is too close to the enemy. This is actually the reason why Wu Haogu is willing to give some naval personnel to Ji Yi, there are too many unreliable personnel in the navy, so it's good to take the opportunity to clean up some ......

After the secession of Youzhou Town, Wu Haogu took the area outside the customs of Suzhou, Liao State, which had been seized at that time, as the home port of the navy and the site of the naval academy.

The republican government also allocated a large amount of money to mobilize a large number of craftsmen to build the city gates, docks, school buildings, and naval barracks. By the autumn of this year, when Wu Haogu arrived on the "Truth", the military port, which had been renamed Lushunkou, had already begun to take shape.

By the way, Lushun Kou and Lushun City are not together. Lushun City was expanded on the basis of the Suzhou commercial market of the Ma family, and is located in a bay near the Great Wall of Dongguan in Zhendongguan, which is where Dalian Bay is located in the later generations. The commercial market and commercial port of Lushun are located there.

At present, Lushun Commercial Market has introduced many new shareholders, formed a city council according to the model of Tianjin, and has also carried out an overall plan, and is currently undergoing expansion.

On the other hand, Lushunkou is completely the territory of the navy, and the fortress, fort, dock, shipyard, and military city have all taken on the appearance. In another year or two, it should be a large-scale military port fortress!

In addition to the military port and commercial market, Wu Haogu also built a private residence in Lushun, and built a mansion in Lushunkou and Lushun Commercial City.

In his vision, this port city located at the southernmost tip of the Liaodong Peninsula will be built into the capital of the Youzhou Army.

In the future, if there were wars in Liaodong, Goryeo and the Jurchens, Lushun would be the military base camp that was of course not allowed. In the event of a large-scale naval encounter, Arthur Province would also become the command center of the naval battle.

Therefore, Wu Haogu took the opportunity of the expedition to Goryeo and arrived in Lushun to inspect by the way.

The prefect of Lushun Province was appointed by the republican government of Youzhou. Although Lushun City, like Tianjin, is self-made, Lushun Province is not an autonomous province and does not have a provincial council. Instead, Huang Zhisheng, a veteran official sent by the Republican Government, served as the prefect, and he was also the chief material maker of the entire Lushun Mansion and Lushun City projects.

It's a lot of responsibility!

In Lushun Province, the second most important position in Lushun Province was Hu Yanqing, the admiral of the naval fleet, and Wang Mou, the commander of the land route soldiers and horses in Lushun Province. Now the territory of Lushun Mansion was fought down by the two of them.

When the "Truth" approached the Tianzi pier of the Lushunkou Military Port, as soon as the gangway was lowered, Huang Zhisheng, Hu Yanqing, and Wang Mu were waiting on the dock to see Wu Haogu, the head of the Youzhou Republican Mansion.

Wu Haogu, who was a little seasick along the way, got off the boat with Olga, who was not seasick.

"The last general (lower official) and others greet His Royal Highness! And congratulations to His Royal Highness! ”

Hearing the words of the three subordinates, Wu Haogu, who was dizzy and churned uncomfortably in his stomach, squeezed out a little smile and asked, "He?" Any good news? ”

"Your Majesty," replied to him, Wang Mou, the head of the Lushun Prefecture's land route soldiers and horses, "I just got the news two days ago that the army led by the birth girl Zhenbu Du Bo Jilie has attacked the city of Pyongyang in Goryeo Xijing!" ”

"So fast?" Wu Haogu was a little surprised, "What about the king of Goryeo?" He didn't go to Xijing in person, right? ”

"No, where would he dare?"

"Who's guarding Xijing?" Wu Haogu asked hurriedly.

"It's Yin Qiang." Wang Mu replied, "It is said that there are 20,000 elite martial arts classes, and they are guarded steadily. There are only 3,000 soldiers and horses in the birth of the Jurchen, and although the field battle is powerful, it is not enough to break Pyongyang. After all, Pyongyang is Goryeo Xijing, the city is strong, and the garrison is sufficient, which is not comparable to Xuandeokguan and Jeongju City. ”
