Chapter 606: Bad things one after another

Since the first year of Taining, things have not gone well in Yanguo, first the Central Plains encountered a drought and locust plague that are rare in a century, and then the General Supervision Office broke out the biggest corruption case since the opening of the government.

Who knew that when the corruption case was still being investigated and the disaster was still being managed, Shao Yuniang, the governor of Bazhou, sent emergency military information.

Since Wei Shuo publicly declared war on Mobei Rouran and Eile last year, it suddenly broke the peace on the northern prairie.

The two Hu tribes of Mobei Rouran and Eile sent cavalry south to invade.

At that moment, it showed the benefits of Mo Nan in the hands of Yan State, and the Hu cavalry in the south of Mo Bei, if they wanted to invade the land of Yan State, they must first solve the Hu of Mo Nan, who were waiting for battle.

However, both sides are nomadic people, and they are very familiar with the strategies and tactics they are good at, and it is difficult for Mobei Rouran and Eile to bargain in the hands of Mo Nan Zhuhu.

But in any case, the attack on Mo Nan Zhuhu was a provocation to the Yan State. After receiving the military information from Monan, Shao Yuniang, the governor of Bazhou, on the one hand, reorganized her troops and horses to prepare for the north at any time, and on the other hand, hurriedly warned the Privy Council in the rear.

After receiving an urgent report from the Governor's Office of Bazhou, the Privy Council did not dare to slack off and immediately reported to Wei Shuo.

"The king, Rouran Le went south to invade Monan, and the Bazhou Governor's Mansion requested to send troops north to intervene."

Wei Shuo took the military newspaper and looked at it for a while, and said indifferently: "Rouran and Eile don't have to worry, there is no need to make a big move, even if Yan Guo destroys Rouran, what can I do?" It's not that you can't control Mobei? In a few years, there will be a new Hu ethnic group rising up. ”

"As long as Mo Nan is still in the hands of Yan Guo, Mo Bei Rouran and Eile will not be able to rise in the wind and waves."

However, Lu Chang, the secretary of the General Staff, put forward a different opinion, "The king and Mo Nan Zhuhu have just returned to the Yan State, if they allow Rouran and Eile to harass Mo Nan, the Yan State will not care about it, and it will inevitably make Mo Nan Zhuhu deviate from virtue in the long run." ”

"In the event that the Southern Zhuhu of Mo Nan launched a rebellion under the instigation of Rouran and Eile, the northern barrier that the Yan State had painstakingly built would be completely lost. Under the frenzied counterattack of the combination of Mobei and Monan Zhuhu, the safety of the north will have to be pinned on the defense line of Yinshan and the Great Wall. ”

"However, the defense line of the Great Wall of Yinshan has been abandoned for hundreds of years, and since Taixing was recovered by the Yan State in the second year, it has been continuously renovated on a large scale, but it has only been more than four years ago, and I dare not say that it has been repaired and perfected, and there are still many hidden dangers to be solved."

"If Hu Lu is allowed to advance south to the first line of Yinshan, then the pressure on the border defense of the northern border of Yan Kingdom will be doubled, and it is not easy for Cheng Tianguang to think about preventing Hu Lu's sneak attack, where is the energy to renovate the defense line of the Great Wall?"

"Therefore, the minister thinks that he should still send troops to support Mo Nan at the moment, and he can't let Zhuhu deviate from Yan Guo."

Lu Chang's reminder made Wei Shuo realize that Mo Nan Zhuhu was not as stable as he imagined. After all, the Monan grassland has been isolated from the Central Plains for many years, and has almost never been ruled by the Central Plains Dynasty.

It was not until the eloquent Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu that Huaxia nominally gained dominance over this grassland. But now too long has passed since the Han Wu era, and the Xiongnu who surrendered to the Han Dynasty have all perished, and now how much sense of belonging does Monan Zhuhu have to Yan State, Wei Shuo does not dare to have much hope.

As Lu Chang said, now that Monan has been initially decided, and the people's hearts are not stable, it is really necessary to let Rouran and Eile invade Monan, and it is difficult to ensure that the Zhuhu of Monan will not fall into the arms of Rouran and Eile in the case of huge losses, and the situation in the entire northern Xinjiang will undergo major changes at that time.

"Originally, I thought that Mobei Hulu would not go south to fight in the grass valley until autumn, but I didn't expect that just after the beginning of spring, Rouran and Eile couldn't wait to go south, it seems that the other party is very jealous of Yan Guo. In this case, the war in the north was handed over to the Governor's Office of Bazhou, and the Privy Council seized the time to mobilize some materials and reinforcements to Bazhou. ”

"No!" Gao Zhan, Wen Qiao, Lu Chang, Han Shou and other high-level Privy Council leaders bowed down one after another.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation in the northern grasslands has changed dramatically, let's talk about it, will this have any impact on the surrounding situation?"

Gao Zhan touched his chin and pondered: "Now the external situation is no better for Yan State, in the southeast, Yan State and Wang Dun are facing each other across the Huai River. The Huai River moat was fair to both the north and the south, and even if Wang Dun knew that the Hu people in the north were heading south, it was impossible for him to send troops to break through the Huai River and go north. ”

"What's more, in the Battle of Xuzhou, the Qianhu cavalry, which Wang Dun had high hopes for, was destroyed by the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, and without cavalry troops, Wang Dun would never have the courage to go north to attack Huaibei."

"Moreover, there are many contradictions between Wang Dun and the imperial court, and no matter how much the situation in the north changes, Wang Dun will not dare to act rashly."

"In the end, the Yan State Water Division is not a vegetarian, and if Wang Dun wants to take advantage of the fire to rob, he must first defeat the Yan State Water Division's defense line."

After more than ten years of development, the Yan Kingdom has established a powerful naval division almost from scratch, and this naval division has been famous on the sea a few years ago, and its strength is not inferior to the Jiangdong naval division.

Moreover, as the Yan army entered the banks of the Huai River, the naval division had sent an inland river fleet composed of small warships to patrol and guard the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.

"Secondly, in the northeast, the situation may be a little unfavorable for Yan Guo. Since the lord proposed a territorial exchange plan last year, Goguryeo has not made any reaction. When King Migawa heard that there was a rebellion in the north, he refused the lord's proposal, and he might have to fight Goguryeo. ”

Since the Xi'an Ping War against the King of Michuan was only spared, Goguryeo extinguished its ambition to expand into Liaodong. For more than ten years, relying on the careful management of King Mikawa and Kurasukeri, Goguryeo's national strength has grown, and it has crossed Changbai Mountain and Datong Jiangnan to capture a lot of Sanhan land.

The fact that the Great Jin and Goguryeo were at peace was not because of how good the relationship between the two sides was, but because all the energy of the Yan State was focused on pacifying the Hu trouble, while the King of Michuan concentrated on rectifying internal affairs.

However, there was a territorial dispute between Goguryeo and the Great Jin, and there was no possibility of reconciliation at all.

If it is against Yan alone, Goguryeo will definitely have no confidence, but now that the north is soft and rebellious, who knows if King Michuan will take the opportunity to seek greater benefits?

"Goguryeo shouldn't have the courage to refuse the lord's proposal, last year we were in the middle of a war with Shile, isn't Goguryeo also very honest? This is the sorrow of small countries, where there is no way out except to depend on a large country to survive. The minister thought that the Goguryeo envoy should be on land, and perhaps it would not be long before the king would receive good news from Goguryeo. ”

Who knew that Gao Zhan's voice had just fallen, but he saw Guo Yu hurriedly walking in from outside, holding two military newspapers in his hand and suddenly joking: "Lord, there are two military newspapers in the hands of the minister right now, one of which is happy and one is sad, I don't know which one you want to hear first?" ”

Wei Shuo was stunned when he heard this, and then thought that he seemed to be a little unlucky recently, so he couldn't help but joke: "Let's listen to the good news first, just to rush the bad luck!" ”

Guo Yu said with a happy face: "Your Majesty, Goguryeo has agreed to exchange territory, and will move the whole country to the Samhan Peninsula in the near future. ”

Wei Shuo finally heard the good news, and was immediately overjoyed, and when he thought of Cheng Han again, he couldn't help but sigh: "It would be good if Cheng Han also knew each other like Goguryeo, originally Cheng Han was willing to resist, but now that he knows that the situation in the north has changed, I am afraid that he will not give up armed confrontation." ”

Wei Shuowei was worried that the situation in the north would affect the use of troops in the southwest, after all, the world was like a chess game, and Wei Shuo was not the only one who played chess, and there were other chess players who were constantly stirring up the game, and the situation could not all develop according to Liaodong's ideas.

Sure enough, I saw Guo Yu take out another military report, and said with a wry smile: "Song Yuan came to report, it is said that the general Wang Dun has decided to send Kui An to lead the troops into the aid of Chenghan, it seems that the battle of Liaodong Army going south to take Chenghan will not be too easy." ”

"What?!"

After listening to Guo Chen's words, the joy that had just surged in his heart because of Goguryeo suddenly dissipated without a trace, Wei Shuo grabbed the military newspaper in Guo Yu's hand and quickly browsed it.

When everyone at the scene heard that Kui An was about to enter Shu, their faces couldn't help but become solemn. There are more than 10,000 elite Hu cavalry in Kui'an's hands, which may not be anything in the north, but it is a force to be reckoned with in Jiangdong and Chenghan. And Wang Dun was willing to let him support Cheng Han, which shows how much the general attached importance to Cheng Han.

This is bad news for the Yan Kingdom, which is determined to recover the Han Dynasty, and it can't be more bad news. (To be continued.) )
