Chapter 563: South-East Alliance

Therefore, no matter whether the enemy is allowed to cross the river or not, the Holy Dynasty has an absolute advantage!

"What do you think, tell me your advice."

In the imperial study, Wang Xu looked at Huang Quan.

Huang Quan was very embarrassed, he just didn't know what to do, so he came to ask Wang Xu, where did he know how powerful this was.

"Your Majesty, Weichen... Ignorance. ”

"Forget it, you better call Mr. Calligraphy and Painting."

"No."

Huang Quan left, Wang Xu sighed, with Huang Quan's ability, being a military secretary is the highest, and it is already his limit to be able to mobilize the soldiers and horses on the realm of the Holy Dynasty.

These things still have to be done by people like Han Shushu, Wen Qing and others, and as for Jia Hui, it is also a little worse, for this, Wang Xu knows very well in his heart.

After tea...

Han Shushu rushed over: "Participate in Your Majesty." ”

"Don't be polite, sit down."

In the next second, Wang Xu said everything again, and then asked Han Shuhua's opinion.

After pondering for a moment, Han Shushu said: "Cai Wenzhuo should be allowed to cross the river!" ”

"Why?"

Wang Xu asked.

Han Shushu said: "After Cai Wenzhuo's army crossed the river, the grassland was completely empty, and it would be easier for us to occupy it in the future, which was secondary; The main thing is that if His Majesty does not let Cai Wenzhuo cross the river with soldiers, Weichen guesses that Cai Wenzhuo will definitely adopt the system of north and south Beijing, and his Ming country's grain storage is unusually rich, even if he immediately recruits millions of soldiers, he can afford to raise it, if it is forced to rush, Cai Wenzhuo is desperate, and we are quite troublesome. ”

"What Mr. Calligraphy and Painting said is reasonable!"

Wang Xu was awakened by a word and suddenly realized.

"It's still Mr. who can see through the situation better." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"Your Majesty has won the prize."

After many efforts, Cai Wenzhuo transported all the elephant soldiers in the grassland to the northern capital, and the Yangtze River was completely controlled by Zhao Long, and 200,000 recruits have been recruited in these months. All of them stayed in the Hexi Navy Battalion for training.

............

Nandu.

High Power House.

"Hahaha... This Cai Wenzhuo, begging for hardship, originally wanted to attach himself to Wang Xu, but he didn't expect that the territory was divided into two halves. Ming Guo is only afraid that it is going to be over. ”

Gao Quan sat on the throne and laughed heartily.

Cui Yan said: "Prime Minister, it seems that this Holy Dynasty is going to destroy Cai Wenzhuo first, we can take this opportunity to develop it well." ”

Said development. Gao Quan's laughter stopped abruptly, after the last battle, he lost Wu County again, and at this moment Hu Guo's territory is only Nanjun, this wild land, Gao Quan really has no way, I don't know how to develop.

The terrain of Nanjun is extremely steep, mostly mountain peaks, Junlin, and wanting to grow food in this kind of place is tantamount to half the effort, compared to Beijun and Bao'an County. It's too much worse, even worse than Dongjun, although there are many waters in Dongdu, but the people are plains, and they can grow a lot of rice.

"Hey..."

Gao Quan sighed helplessly.

"Prime Minister, it's a good thing that Cai Wenzhuo was targeted by Wang Xu, why are you still sighing?"

Gao Quan said: "Now that I think about it, Wu Jun has lost so much that the strength of my Hu country has dropped greatly. I'm afraid that if I want to rise in the future, it will become more and more difficult. ”

"Prime Minister don't have to worry, looking at the current situation, Wang Xu is definitely going to destroy the Ming Kingdom first. When we come to attack us after the destruction of the Ming Kingdom, our strength is not what it is now, and it is still unknown who will win and who will lose. ”

Cui Yandao.

Gao Quan is not as optimistic as him, no matter how strong Cai Wenzhuo is, he is not Wang Xu's opponent. Wang Xu wants to destroy Cai Wenzhuo, it is simply easy, judging from the strength of the Holy Dynasty now, even if the north and south start a war on both fronts, they will not fall behind, not to mention that Hu Guo is fighting the Holy Dynasty alone.

"Maybe we can consider forming an alliance with the Eastern Capital."

Suddenly, Gao Quan said.

Eastern Capital?

All the generals were puzzled, and Cui Yan said: "Prime Minister, that's the old court, like a wolf and a tiger, how can you surrender your identity and form an alliance with us?" ”

"Now it's different from the past, Dongdu should understand that with their strength, they are no longer the opponent of the Holy Dynasty, and there is no way out except to form an alliance with us, otherwise, he will wait to perish!"

Gao Quan said: "We are the same, the Ming Kingdom is now hopeless, there is no need to form an alliance with them, only by pulling the Eastern Capital to our warship, we will have a chance to live." ”

Looking at Cui Yan, Gao Quan said, "You will send an envoy to the Eastern Capital now, get in touch with Yang Mingyue, and form an alliance." ”

"No."

Cui Yan smiled and asked: "Prime Minister, now that we have lost Wu County, it means that the strength is not as good as before, can we consider recruiting new soldiers to expand our strength, although it is impossible for Wang Xu to call in a short time, but we must also be prepared." ”

"There's no urgency."

Gao Quan thought for a while and said: "First form an alliance with the Eastern Capital, and then we will also try our best to innovate the weapons, the Holy Dynasty and the Eastern Capital have artillery, and the Northern Capital also has elephant soldiers, and we only have explosives, which is too backward!" ”

Cui Yan said with a smile: "Prime Minister, you are too much for others to support, our catapult battalion is not weaker than their artillery." ”

The catapult battalion, the kind used by Yu Yuan last year, put the explosive bag on the trebuchet and launch it, which is not only far away, but also powerful, but the only drawback is that the movement speed is too slow, several times larger than the red-coated cannon, which is not conducive to long-distance combat.

"Then we'll see."

..........

Time flies, three months later.

At this time, Hu Guo has formed an alliance with the Eastern Capital, Wang Xu laughed at this, this has long been expected by him, isn't it an alliance, he has not yet thought about the affairs of the south, and he has to find a way to annex the Ming State with all his might.

"Your Majesty, Huang Quan is here."

"Let him in."

"No."

As the Imperial Forest Army retreated, Huang Quan strode into the Imperial Study.

"Your Majesty."

"Don't be polite, what's the matter?"

Wang Xu raised his eyes and said.

Huang Quan was neither humble nor arrogant, and said with a calm face: "Your Majesty, in the past few months, Cai Wenzhuo has led all the soldiers and horses in the grassland boundary of Beijun to the Northern Capital, about 300,000 elephant soldiers, 500,000 Tuntian soldiers, 100,000 infantry, cavalry, etc., a total of more than 900,000, a lot of grain, grass, and equipment have also been transported to the Northern Capital, and the current grassland is empty, and there are not many soldiers stationed there. ”

Speaking of this, Huang Quan said: "If General Zhao is allowed to send troops now, he will definitely be able to completely occupy the grassland, Your Majesty, we..." ”

"Don't worry, it's better to maintain the status quo first, we also need to recuperate, let's wait a while."

"No."

Wang Xu has already asked Ye Xiong, after understanding, the strength of the Ming Kingdom is still very strong, if you count the Tuntian soldiers, it is 1.5 million! This is still the current military strength, the Dongjun is a large man, and the army can be expanded at any time, Cai Wenzhuo has millions of loads of grain and grass in his hands, not to mention a hundred thousand soldiers, even if it is two million, he can afford it, so Wang Xu is waiting for an opportunity!

Han calligraphy and painting once said a sentence, Wang Xu has always been regarded as a classic, he said, the war is not the number of soldiers, but the people's strength, national strength, grain and grass, who has more grain and grass, will be able to win! (To be continued.) )
