Su Qin is worthy of being the captain of Zheng Guo, has a unique view of the situation of the princes and countries, has outstanding insight and vision, and continues to organize his thoughts: "Among the princes and countries, the cavalry of the northern countries is strong, the infantry of the Central Plains countries is brilliant, and the naval divisions of the southern countries are even better.

At present, Zheng Guo's infantry and sailors are strong, and it is difficult to find opponents in other countries, but the cavalry is lacking, and several northern countries, with Zhao, Jin, and Yan are close to Saiwai, and it is easy to obtain good horses, and the cavalry is the strongest.

Zhao Guo is strong, Zheng Guo cannot be shaken, and the battle is twice as bad. It is thousands of miles away from the Jin State, and the whip of attack is beyond the reach, and the Yan State borders Zheng, and the national strength is weak.

After the annexation of Yan State, Zheng Guo obtained a large number of good horses, and with a horse breeding field, the strength of the cavalry naturally increased, and then he competed with Zhao, which was worthy of a battle. ”

"Indeed, I also think so, why did Lovely Qing say that he would attack Song Fayan at the same time?" Li Zhaozhi nodded, but the doubts on his face were not eliminated.

Su Qin turned around and pointed to the map of the handover of the Jin State and the Song State, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty look again, the border between the Jin State and the Song State is a vast plain, in recent years, the Jin State has been defeated by the Song State, the Yan State, and the new Emperor Beichen Qiong succeeded to the throne, ambitious, day and night, if Your Majesty unites the Jin State."

The cavalry of the Jin State launched an attack from the north, and Marshal Zhu led 200,000 iron cavalry troops to attack from the east.

And the battle of attacking Yan, the participation of the Jin State can reduce the pressure on our country, if the Jin State does not participate in the better, the Yan State is weak, how can it withstand the Zheng State soldiers, General Yi is a famous general of the Zheng State, the battle against Yan, can be a battle. ”

I have to say that Su Qin's analysis is the first way, the two superpowers, jointly attack the Song Dynasty, according to the situation that the Song State has no choice but to gnaw and not make a sound, the troops of the two countries will definitely conquer the northwest region of the Song State.

If it was a protracted war, although the Song economy was strong, it still could not help two big countries with equal strength. And the Yan State is not enough to the three major vassal states, and the breadth of one county is almost negligible, but the geographical location is superior.

"Taiwei Su, although this method is wonderful, the Jin Kingdom may not unite. Over the years, the Jin State has repeatedly invaded the south, and even though the cavalry is powerful, it has been frightened by the crossbow battalion of the Song State, and I am afraid that it will not easily attack the Song Dynasty.

Moreover, the Jin Kingdom is lonely, although the land is large, the strength is not strong, there are thousands of miles of fertile fields, thousands of miles of grassland, and countless good horses, but unfortunately they have never been used on the right path. The south was defeated by the weak Song, the north was suppressed by the Eastern Hu, and the west was defeated by the Yan State, do you think such an ally is reliable? A Wenchen next to him said, but this person is Han Qi, a member of the Han family, and he is the prime minister of Zheng Guo.

It was at that time that the Jin State went north to the outside of the Saiwai, expelled Donghu, entered the plain in the west, occupied a large area of fertile land in the Yan State, invaded the Song Dynasty in the south, and returned to the south for half a century in the Song State.

It's a pity that as the old saying goes, the rich are not more than three generations, after the three overlords of the Jin Kingdom, the monarchs of the past dynasties will not be mediocre, they are cowards, for many years, the north has been harassed by Donghu, and a lot of manpower, material and financial resources have been consumed, and the hidden dangers still cannot be lifted.

The south also began to be counterattacked by the Song State, and now hundreds of thousands of cavalry, but they did not dare to provoke the Song State, which was all infantry, and as for the west, they annexed the Yan State with ambition. But the strong rise of Zhao State, so that Jin State did not dare to swallow Yan, once the two countries have no buffer zone, Zhao Qiang will attack Jin, and then the enemy on three sides, the situation will be even worse.

On the other hand, the Song State was also a large country on three sides, the Jin State and the Yan State in the north, the Zheng State in the west, the Yue State in the south, and the Liang State in the east. The Zheng and Jin countries were ambitious and attacked the Song Dynasty many times, but all of them returned in vain.

In the vassal states, often called the weak Song Dynasty, surrounded by a group of heroes, for many years focused on internal affairs, if not for the invasion of foreign enemies, as a last resort, never took the initiative to invade foreign countries, Rao is the land of the Yan country, and it has been independent for decades.

After the efforts of two generations of kings, the princes and countries all knew that the Song State was rich and the best in the world, but its combat effectiveness was weak, and they all peeked into the wealth of the Song State, but they repeatedly suffered losses.

I thought that the Song State was nothing more than a Shenji battalion, trapped, a crossbow battalion, and the three battalions were well-equipped, and even Zheng Guo, who claimed to be a powerful country in the Central Plains, was also defeated by the infantry phalanx and the mechanical army when attacking the Song Dynasty.

The crossbow battalion is specialized in restraining the northern cavalry, with a wide range and great strength, which is second to none among the nations, which is also the reason why the northern cavalry power is afraid of the Song State.

Su Qin chuckled and said: "It is not unreasonable for the prime minister to be worried, as the prime minister said, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, Beichen Qiongyan, has a low master, is ambitious, and his national strength is weak. Once Zheng Guo sends troops, and then promises benefits, Beichen Qiong will definitely send troops.

At this time, General Zhu led the Iron Cavalry Army to pretend to attack the Song Dynasty, making the Jin State the main force to attack the Song Dynasty, and striving to consume more of the main cavalry of the Jin State.

And General Xing led the Iron Cavalry Army, tried his best to attack Yan, and fought for the annexation of Yan in a war, which was not difficult for the two generals.

More importantly, His Majesty wants to unify the countries, and after annexing the Yan State, he temporarily reconciled with the Song State, General Zhu waved his army north, and the troops pointed directly at the Jin State, and General Zhu and General Xing joined forces to attack Jin and annex the Jin State.

At this time, after two or three years of recuperation, Zheng Guo attacked the Song Dynasty from two aspects in the northeast, and although the Song was strong, he may not bear the thunder of the Iron Cavalry. ”

"Okay, good, good, kill two birds with one stone, Zhu Hai, Xing Yike, act according to the plan of the Taiwei, this battle is the first battle of my Zheng State's Northern Expedition, I hope that our monarchs and ministers will work together and go all out to fight for it

Destroy Yan and occupy Jin and then cut down the Song Dynasty. Li Zhao stood up and smiled, looking like he was winning. Prime Minister, immediately send someone to the Jin State, promise benefits, no matter how much it costs, be sure to win over the Jin State to participate in the war, and when the news comes back, immediately raise troops for the Northern Expedition. ”

"Your Majesty, but there is still Zhao State in the north, no matter when, you should not ignore the existence of Zhao State." Han Qi is not to be outdone, the Su family's financial resources are not strong, but there is a faint momentum to suppress the Han family in military and political affairs, the south is new, and there are many people who are vassals of the Su family, if this Northern Expedition is successful, although the Han family is a gate valve, I am afraid that it will be suppressed by the Su family in terms of strength, so he does not want the emperor to go on the Northern Expedition, at least not for now.

"Han Qing, didn't you go to Zhao State in person a few years ago and reach an agreement with King Zhao, Zheng Guo will fight Yan, won't Zhao Guo participate?" Li Zhao looked a little dissatisfied, the south was newly victorious, and he hoped to take the momentum of the army and go north to attack Yan.

Once Su Qin's plan is realized, the north is afraid that no one will stop the rise of Zheng State, and he will not be able to unify the north and form a hegemonic position, which can be regarded as the realization of his dream.

Moreover, since he ascended the throne, he didn't like the gate lords, these people were pointing fingers in the court, only seeking benefits for the family, when Su Qin changed the law, the Han family did not support many things, but secretly prevented them. If it weren't for the Han family's financial resources, he would have been expelled from Zheng Guo by the Han family.

"But, but, Your Majesty, King Zhao is short-sighted, and the two ends of the snake's head may not fulfill the covenant once someone bewitches him. Besides, there are many famous ministers and generals in the Zhao Dynasty, and they may not be able to see Zheng Guo's intentions, and the emperor is cautious! Han Qi said.

Li Zhao glared at Han Qi and shouted: "I have been silent for fifteen years for the rise of Zheng Guo, and now that Zheng Guo is strong, you still let me be silent, then, why did I change the law in the first place, why did I try to be strong, why don't I be a playboy." Han Qi, there is no need to talk about today's matter, I have made up my mind. ”

"Obey the order!" Han Qi said lonely.

The plan set by the courtiers of Zheng Guo to attack Song and Yan, Lin Feng was categorically unaware at this moment, he was currently patrolling Cangyan Mountain.

A month ago, Wen Jishi first issued an edict, promising a lot of money, successively recruited three mountain thieves in the Yan Kingdom, and personally rode south to the north, and I don't know what method was used, but he actually recruited the red shirts in the south and the horse thieves outside the Saiwai.

Let the courtiers look at him impressed, Lin Feng believes that there is a kind of person in the world who can really say that the dead are alive and the living are dead, just like Su Qin, who also admired the seal of the six countries, so that Qin did not dare to send a letter to Guguan for fifteen years.

Although Wen Jishi did not admire the seal of the six countries, he went south and north, regardless of his personal safety, and brought more than 60,000 people, which is really a big credit.

Not only did it solve the internal threat of Yan State, but it also increased 60,000 troops at once, and these people were all outlaws.

Now, Cangyan Mountain suddenly has 60,000 more troops, and Lin Feng, as the emperor, how could he not come to take a look.

After some drills, Lin Feng put 20,000 redshirts and more than 10,000 bandits under Zhao Hongru's command, plus 5,000 ironclad infantry and 20,000 gate lords, Zhao Hongru's strength increased dramatically, almost 60,000 infantry.

Zhao Hongru selected those with strong physical strength and strong fighting will among the red-shirted soldiers and bandits to form ironclad infantry, and for a time, among the 60,000 infantry, there were 40,000 ironclad infantry and 20,000 light infantry.

30,000 ringing horse thieves and Zhang Yu commanding 20,000 light cavalry mixed, ringing horse thieves are famous, all of them are ruthless characters, long-distance running, roundabout, outflanking, fast as lightning.

In his opinion, this is the lethality of light cavalry, the craziest tactic.

After promoting the recruited generals, Lin Feng handed over the listed training strategies to Zhang Yu, Zhao Hongru and others, and was stepping up the design and improvement of bows and arrows, striving to reach the current level.

Even the longbow and light arrows also reach 300 meters, and the heavy arrows reach 250 meters, as for the crossbow, he also knows the production routine, but it is not clear the production technology of this era.

In the battle of Black Flag Pass, the siege machinery of the Song State was too shocking, which made him feel pressure, especially if there was a conflict with the Song in the future, in the face of the powerful siege machinery of the Song State, he must have a way to deal with it.

It's a pity that Lin Feng didn't know that there were repeating crossbows in this era, and large crossbow beds were also commonplace in the Song Kingdom, with a range of more than 600 to 1,000 meters, and some of the chain crossbow beds in the crossbow camp even exceeded 1,500 meters.

He improved the strong bow, because the strong bow production method is relatively simple, and after two battles with the Rong people, he found that the Rong tribe's strong attack range was less than 200 meters.

It's excellent. Of course, this was before he had seen the Song State repeater and the bed crossbow.
