Chapter 286: United Resistance to the King
The Illuminati Sect was basically destroyed, and Yun Yi concluded that the situation in the Dali Empire would change from the joint encirclement and suppression of the Illuminati by the family and the imperial court to the mutual attack between the clans, competing for the final victor and becoming the ruler of this world.
The Yun family is a weak family on the surface, but it is surrounded by the five major families of Laizhou and Hezhou, and it is impossible to say that there will be a family to attack the Yun family, so Yun Yi ordered the first and second divisions of the Yun family army stationed on the border of Zezhou to strengthen their vigilance, if there is an enemy attack, do not be polite, and teach them a hard lesson.
On the other hand, the land of Tongzhou and Suzhou has been divided up by major forces, and the Su and Shen families in Huizhou, who want to give up the "chicken ribs" in their hands, are negotiating with the two families of Laizhou and the two families, preparing to use this "chicken ribs" to obtain enough benefits from the two families of Wang and Sun.
The land occupied by the Yuan Zhou army in Tongsu Erzhou was the largest among the major forces, accounting for about a quarter of the total area of Tongsu Erzhou, but like the Huizhou army, it did not border with its own territory, which was a troublesome matter, and Wang Shuo immediately gathered his advisers to discuss how to solve the matter.
Liu Duo, the chief strategist under Wang Shuo's throne, who was born in a small family affiliated with the Baode Wang family, offered a plan: "Lord, Duo has two strategies. ”
"What's next? What's the best policy? Wang Shuo asked.
Liu Duo replied: "Since the two places are not connected, the lord can open them up, and the biggest obstacle is the two great families of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan in Qinzhou, and the next policy is that the lord will send people to negotiate with the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, and exchange the territory of Qinzhou in the hands of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan with the land currently occupied by our army; The upper volume of Duo is still that the Lord sent people to negotiate with the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, but instead of exchanging all the Qinzhou territory in the hands of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, he only exchanged the southwestern part of Qinzhou. ”
Wang Shuo glanced at Liu Duo, and then asked, "What if the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan are unwilling?" ”
"Then the lord's army is pressing, and the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan have to let it if they don't let it." Liu Duo replied without thinking.
"Good!"
There is no doubt that Qinzhou is the foundation of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, and the two great families are definitely unwilling to exchange their foundation for the land of Tongsu Erzhou, which is already a little tattered, but there is a premise for this, the military strength of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan suffered heavy losses in the last war to encircle and suppress the Guangming Sect, and it is difficult to recover in a short time, and the Yuanzhou army commanded by Wang Shuo is already recognized as the strongest army in the world.
However, the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan still have some strength, if Wang Shuo persecuted too much, it is impossible to say that the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan will resist desperately, Wang Shuo can defeat the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, and it is difficult to completely eliminate the two major families of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, and it will also bring a lot of damage to the Yuan Zhou army, you must know that as the name of the god of war Wang Shuo spreads all over the world, other families gradually unite to fight against Wang Shuo, and Yuan Zhoujun can't do it alone, if he can do it, That Wang Shuo is not far from the position of the ruler of this world.
Therefore, it is the best choice to exchange a piece of territory in Suzhou for the southwest of Qinzhou.
Since this plan was proposed by Liu Duo first, Liu Duo asked Wang Shuo for his life and personally went to Qinzhou to lobby the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, and Wang Shuo nodded in agreement.
In early March, Liu Duo came to Qinzhou on behalf of Wang Shuo, visited the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan in turn, told them all about the powerful relationship, and faintly threatened the Yuan Zhou army.
Dongfang Luo, the head of the Dongfang family, and Lin Pu, the head of the Lin family, thought twice, and finally could only reluctantly agree to Wang Shuo's "request" to exchange land.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves, judging from the current division of forces, the territory controlled by the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan is in a situation of being semi-surrounded by the Yuanzhou army, only the southwest of Qinzhou (bordering Linzhou) and Xinzhou in the east of Qinzhou are not in the hands of the Yuanzhou army, but Xinzhou is controlled by the great enemy of the family, the Guangming Sect, the situation of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan can be said to be under siege, the total strength of the two families is only about 70,000, and the total strength of the Yuanzhou army is close to 200,000, a threefold gap, so that the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan have to agree to Wang Shuo's "request".
Although they agreed to Wang Shuo's "request" to exchange land, the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan could not suffer a loss, otherwise the face of the two families would be lost in front of the world's families, and the southwest of Qinzhou could be exchanged, but the entire western part of Suzhou should be exchanged.
The area in the west of Suzhou is almost equivalent to more than three times that of the southwest of Qinzhou, so a change, on the surface, it seems that the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan have earned, and they can break through the blockade of the Yuan Zhou army through the western part of Suzhou, but Wang Shuo did not lose much, and he was able to connect the two territories under his rule, and Suzhou and Tongzhou under the influence of a long period of war, the population loss was serious, and a large area of land was barren, compared to the southwestern region of Qinzhou, which was much better.
After Liu Duo sent the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan's resolution back to Wang Shuo, Wang Shuo immediately replied and agreed.
In order to show his sincerity, Wang Shuo first ordered the Yuan Zhou army in the west of Suzhou to withdraw to the south of Suzhou, and then the men of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan took over the western area of Suzhou, and at the same time, the men of the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan also withdrew from the southwest of Qinzhou.
After more than two years of war, the loss of young and strong labor force was serious, and the major families also began to pay attention to the population under their rule, so there were Dongfang and Lin.
After learning of this situation, Wang Shuo just sneered and passed, and in the future, he would get it back from the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan, and now starting from the southwest of Qinzhou, the territory under Wang Shuo's rule can be connected together, which is much easier.
Today, the territory controlled by Wang Shuo is basically equivalent to two Yuan Prefectures, with a population of more than 7 million and a military force of nearly 200,000, which can be called the most powerful force in the world.
However, after fighting for such a long time, the new territory has not been fully digested, and Wang Shuo also has to recuperate for a period of time, and no one can stand it if he continues to fight like this.
Although on the surface, the two great families of Qinzhou got more from this transaction, but the two families couldn't swallow this breath, after all, this was not the two families who took the initiative to ask for a land exchange, but was almost forced by Wang Shuo to change the land, and at the same time, it also made the two families realize the strength of Wang Shuo and his Yuanzhou army, and only relying on the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan could not resist Wang Shuo's army, and if they wanted to fight against Wang Shuo's army, the Dongfang clan and the Lin clan needed to contact more allies.
The Dongfang clan and the Lin clan secretly visited the Laizhou family, the Hezhou family, the Huizhou family, and even some ministers in the imperial court, hoping to form an alliance to jointly resist the powerful Baode Wang family.
Other families also see the strength of the Baode Wang clan under the leadership of Wang Shuo, if it continues like this, isn't this world the Baode Wang's? No Maison wants to see such a scene.
Soon, a loose "anti-king" alliance was formed, and the purpose of the "anti-king" alliance was that once Wang Shuo attacked any force in the alliance, the other forces would jointly want Wang Shuo's territory to attack.
"Huh!" Looking at the information about the "Anti-Wang" Alliance, Wang Shuo sneered.
