Chapter 851: Chu Tian's Decision (Make-up Night)
"Sun Jian, this guy, will sit on the ground and raise the price, and his daughter still wants to become the main room of Wu'er."
Before Chutian set out to attack Liaodong, he received an urgent warning from Lu Su.
Sun Jian persevered, besieged Hefei for the third time, and the army pressed the border, and put forward new conditions for Chutian.
Chu Tian didn't expect Sun Jian to suddenly put forward new conditions.
Sun Jian put his family's interests above the struggle between the princes, wanted to protect the interests of the Sun family, and even wanted his daughter to become the future princess.
"Should we agree to Sun Jian's conditions?"
Chutian found it cool in summer.
Sun Jian directly controlled at least 200,000 troops, which was considered a medium-sized prince.
Sun Jian attacked Hefei many times, causing a lot of trouble to Chutian.
Now Sun Jian is sitting on the ground and raising the price, and he is using the attack on Hefei City to blackmail Chutian.
"Wu'er is your son, and it's too early to determine the main room. If you just fool Sun Jian and regret it later, then it's a different matter. ”
Xia Liang didn't know whether to agree to Sun Jian's conditions.
This is already a complete political marriage.
What Sun Jian wanted was the family interests of the Sun family in Wu County, while Chu Tian wanted to put an end to the Jiangdong Army's almost endless attack on Hefei City, and both of them had demands.
"The higher the status, the more commitment-oriented."
Chutian knows the importance of integrity.
This is not because Chu Tian is a good person, but out of the need to win people's hearts.
A capricious lord whose subordinates are loyal to questionable, and who will not have confidence in cooperation when dealing with other lords.
Huo An, Mu Ke, Zhang Dao and other lords cooperated with Chu Tian, most likely because Chu Tian rarely broke his promise.
"If you don't want to repent, then when the time comes, find a crime and directly erase the Sun family. If the Sun family is gone, then you will not be considered a breach of promise. ”
When Xiao Xuan heard about this, he said very calmly.
“……”
This woman is really ruthless, in order not to violate her promise, she directly exterminated other people's entire clan, such logic is simply outrageous.
"Sun Jian has dozens of generals and two or three hundred thousand soldiers and horses, if he can be wooed, it may be good."
Xia Liang weighed it off, and now there are very few princes in the Han Empire.
The princes who were evenly matched with Chu Tian were directly suppressed by Chu Tian, and there was no marriage.
After the marriage, the other party is unwilling to surrender, so when the war is engaged, it will be difficult to start.
Oriental-style political marriages often occurred between the daimyo of the Toei Warring States, and it was not uncommon for the two daimyo to betray each other after the marriage.
"Promise Sun Jian for the time being, there will be a long time in the future, and no one can guarantee what will happen."
In the end, Chutian was still unbearable to Sun Jian's attack on Hefei, and temporarily perfunctory.
When the Northern War came to reap the results, Chu Tian didn't want Tongque and Sun Jian to interfere.
Together, the forces of Tongque and Sun Jian were no worse than either of Mingguan and Lao Qin, and the territory they occupied was also quite huge.
In Lords, the population of Koto is actually quite large, as the number of players in the south is no less than in the northern states.
When each player lord establishes a village, the initial NPC population will appear, resulting in more people in Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yizhou, Jiaozhou, Liaodong and other places than expected.
Sun Jian is the breakthrough point of Jiangdong forces.
Although Chu Tian was in western Liaoxi, he was already thinking about pacifying the southern princes.
After solving the two strong enemies of Mingguan and Lao Qin, the next target is naturally Tongque, Liu Bei, Yang Su and other princes who oppose Chutian.
"There shouldn't be any conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future......"
Chu Tian looked at Xia Liang, she was a smart person, Sun Jian's daughter Sun Shangxiang, it stands to reason that she should be played with by her.
"Am I like that?" Xia Liang seemed to see what Chu Tian was thinking, and glared at Chu Tian, "Wu'er seems to be a little weak, if his wife is good at force, maybe she can neutralize it." ”
"So be it."
Because Chutian was worried about history repeating itself, he transferred Guo Jia to Luoyang and personally led the various legions involved in the battle of western Liaoxi to pursue the Ming army in the direction of eastern Liao.
After a short rest, hundreds of thousands of troops marched in the direction of Liaodong City, and millions of strong men in the rear were responsible for escorting grain and grass, and the grain wagons stretched for hundreds of miles, which was extremely spectacular.
In the middle of the Liaoning West Corridor, it is sparsely populated, and it is basically impossible to obtain supplies from the local area.
Chutian adopted the most prudent tactics, step by step, and planned to extend the supply line to Liaodong, so he requisitioned millions of strong men and forcibly opened up a supply line.
Such a large-scale gesture was only possible with a lord with a large population of the territory.
"The last general is willing to be the vanguard and chase ahead!"
The Khitan military general Yelu Huge volunteered to serve as the vanguard of the pacification of Liaodong.
In the battle of western Liaoning, the Khitan Army absorbed a group of cavalry of the leather room army.
Probably because Yelu Hugo wanted revenge, so he recommended himself.
Mingguan defeated the Khitan tribe in the past, Yelu Abaoji was killed, and there were still a lot of grievances with the Khitan tribe.
"Yes."
Since the Khitan generals wanted revenge, Chu Tian didn't mind using them as the vanguard.
Hundreds of thousands of Xia troops swept through the nearby Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes, and advanced all the way to Liucheng, invincible, and the remnants of Liaoxi could not resist hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Until now, Chutian has seized Yuyang County, Youbeiping County, and half of Liaoxi County from the Mingguan forces.
If you go all out in one go, you can take down the entire western Liaoning.
As for Liaodong, Chu Tian may need more time to digest it thoroughly.
After all, Liaodong is no longer just a county.
Liaodong County, together with Buyeo, Goguryeo, and Heilongjiang, has a considerable area.
And that's not even counting the Goryeo Kingdom, which has a population of 10 million.
With the addition of the Goryeo Kingdom, the area of Liaodong is unimaginably larger than that of most states.
Therefore, the battle with Mingguan will seem laborious.
The Mingguan force is not the size of a county at all, and its volume is larger than that of a state pastor.
This is also why Chutian would prefer to compromise with Sun Jian before completely pacifying Liaodong, so as to avoid the Huainan War being too tragic and affecting Chutian's pacification of Liaodong.
"Wu'er's affairs, in the future, it still depends on the thoughts of their next generation, if Sun Jian's daughter can't do it, then find an opportunity to destroy the Sun family."
Chu Tian unconsciously had almost the same idea as Xiao Xuan.
After all, the selection of the princess has a great impact on the fortune of the empire.
The fire was raging among the Wuhuan tribe, and the monk Wanyan Chen held a long knife and rode a majestic war horse, looking up at the billowing black smoke.
Keeping the Wuhuan tribe is a hidden danger after all, the monk Wanyan Chen burned the Wuhuan tribe, migrated the population to the Guannei, and after dismantling, after two or three generations, the Wuhuan tribe will disappear from now on, no one mentions.
There was a knife mark on Monk Wanyan Chen's cheek, extending from the corner of his eye to his chin, and he looked particularly hideous.
In order to defeat the Eight Banners and the red-clothed cannon of the Han army, Monk Wanyan Chen suffered permanent damage and became more obedient in temperament.
Seeing the fire burning, Monk Wanyan Chen was excited.
Hefei City, Sun Jian's Jiangdong army besieged this city, which seemed to be a fierce offensive, but in fact, the casualties were limited.
"If nothing else, King Xia should agree to my terms. How can the descendants of our Sun family be dog girls? It's cheaper for the son of King Xia. Sun Jian thought for a moment, the entire Han Empire may not be more prominent than the Chutian family, "At that time, report more losses to show that we have lived up to King Wu's request." ”
Several generals who held on to Hefei City were relieved to find that Sun Jian's offensive was thunderous and rainy.
Sun Jian obviously did not want to fight to the death with the defenders of Hefei, but symbolically attacked Hefei City for the third time.
The third offensive and defensive battle of Hefei City, compared with the previous two times, seemed to be too easy.
"Diplomacy is magical......"
As a defender of Hefei, Zhang Liao rarely experienced the role of diplomacy firsthand.
In the past, Sun Jian still had a life-and-death posture, but now he is very ambiguous, and he is at odds with the forces of King Xia.
Outside the battlefield, there are many means that can determine victory or defeat, and negotiation, discord, birth, old age, sickness and death can all become conditions for victory.
Lu Su saw that Sun Jian had as promised, and did not storm the city, knowing that Sun Jian intended to really negotiate.
As long as the other side has demands, then it can be talked about to avoid meaningless battles on the battlefield.
A war eagle circled down and landed on the shoulders of the Iron Eagle scouts stationed in Hefei City.
"Lord Lu Su, the lord has issued an order, and it will be opened by the lord himself."
Lu Su took the note, and there was only one word on it.
"I didn't expect the lord to finally agree, is this a delaying tactic, or does the lord really want to form a good alliance with the Sun family for Qin and Jin? It's so elusive......"
Lu Su knew what that meant.
Sun Jian was probably the most nourishing of the native princes, with enormous power until now, with soldiers and horses, and a way out for the future.
Whether it is to rule by dividing the river, serving the king of Wu, or unifying the Han Empire and becoming a relative of the emperor, the Sun family of Wu County is a famous family.
This is also in line with the style of Soochow, making a fortune quietly.
Lu Su secretly told Sun Jian, who continued to besiege Hefei City, suffering hundreds of casualties every day, claiming thousands of casualties to the outside world.
Wu Wang Tongque thought that Hefei City was not easy to capture, and finally transferred Sun Jian, who had been inactive, to attack Jiangling, and personally led his troops to attack Xiangyang City, and Zhou Yu led the sailors into Hanshui.
Sun Jian was relieved when he received the order from Tongque.
Besieging Hefei City and not being able to attack it with all his strength was actually uneasy for Sun Jian.
Tongque transferred it to attack Jiangling, and Sun Jian dealt with Yang Shilang, the king of Song, but he would not show mercy at all.
The luck of the Song king was poor, and after the failure of the operation into Shu, the Jingzhou army suffered a lot of losses, and was attacked by the Jiangdong army, which declined more and more.
In the area of Yunmengze, Gan Ning defeated Ling Cao, the general of Zhou Yu's Sailor Army, through a surprise attack, and captured him alive, which was in the limelight for a while.
Ling Cao was tied up by Gan Ning, the Jinfan thief laughed at him, Ling Cao blushed, and glared at Gan Ning angrily: "Jingnan has been captured by my lord, Jiangxia has already been captured, and your lord does not have more than Xiannan County, the land of a county." Although it is the king of Song and the pastor of Jingzhou, what is the difference between it and the Taishou of Nanjun? ”
Gan Ning listened to Ling Cao's words, and his hand holding the wine bowl couldn't help but stagnate.
Ling Cao also told the truth, and now only Nanjun is left in the Song Kingdom.
Although Nanjun has the largest population, it is only a county after all, and it is far inferior to the current King Wu in terms of territory and troops.
Jingzhou was annexed, it was only a matter of time.
A Jinfan thief who was in charge of patrolling the perimeter reported: "Chief, there is a military general in the Wu army who claims to be Lu Meng, and he asks to meet. ”
"I have not heard of this person. Why did he come? ”
"I don't know."
"Bring him here."
"Boss, what if he is an assassin sent by King Wu?"
"There is no assassin in the world who can hurt me."
Gan Ning was not afraid.
His force is already first-class.
Soon Lu Meng, who was dressed in white, arrived, saw Ling Cao, who was specially brought up by the Jinfan thief to show off the Jinfan thief's strength to Lu Meng.
"Gan Xingba deserves to be a tiger general, but your luck is really bad. The sun and the moon are too old, life is geometric, with your talents, you should find another Mingjun, so that you can have a place to display your talents. ”
"You're a lobbyist?"
Gan Ning is not a completely reckless man, as soon as Lu Meng opened his mouth, Gan Ning knew that Lu Meng wanted to persuade him to surrender.
The sound of the sonorous drawing of the knife was everywhere, and the Jinfan thief pulled out the ring head knife, if Lu Meng was not good, maybe he would not be able to leave this place.
