Chapter 273: The King of the Northwest
At the extreme of the northwest, it has its own culture, its own gods, countless city-states, and kingdoms that live on this land.
Legend has it that in the depths, over several incomparably huge mountain ranges, there are other cultures on the opposite side, even dynasties as powerful as the Great Liang!
The people of the Central Plains do not know much about this area, and they often call it the Western Regions!
At this time, in the Western Regions, in a land of wild sand, a black cavalry with a number of thousands was riding slowly!
The bloody aura on this cavalry was heavy, as if it had just experienced a big battle!
Obviously there were only thousands of knights, but there were more than 10,000 horses, and the many horses at this time were also full of various items
Ren Taixu was wearing a bright light armor, on horseback, walking at the forefront of the cavalry, his armor was all blood-colored, but it was covered by the black armor, and it had become thick.
The scimitar and spear in his hand are all bloodstained!
Half a month ago, he set off an incomparably grand killing feast.
Half Moon marched in Mobei, burning, killing and looting, only accompanied by blood, but it was exhausting!
However, thinking of the harvest of this trip, Ren Taixu's mood has become a lot better.
……
Back in the month ago.
Ren Taixu looked at the elite cavalry that he had been training for more than a year, and he also felt that the time had finally come!
In the two years that he has been guarding the northwest, he has never had a large-scale battle with the aliens in the Western Regions, and he has never invaded, even if there are foreign invaders, Ren Taixu only holds the city firmly and repels it.
In the battle between the two parties, although Ren Taixu has never suffered a loss, he has never occupied a dominant position, and he has always been forced to fight back!
Even Ren Taixu still used the slogan of friendship with foreign countries, so that those shameless people from small states in the Western Regions took up a lot of resources.
Under such circumstances, even many small countries in the Western Regions just thought that Ren was too weak and could be bullied, and they all wanted to come and fight a few autumn winds.
Faced with such a situation, Ren Taixu just smiled slightly-showing weakness to the enemy.
He was able to toss around in the Hanlin Academy for a few years for the sake of the name of a Northwest Festival Envoy, and he could also cooperate with being set aside for several months in order to seize power.
It can be said that Ren Taixu has never lacked patience, and time has never been a precious thing for him.
It's just that he doesn't want to waste his time!
"A sheep-like knot!"
"Weak and bullying city lord."
"If you're hungry, go to the big city to the east, where the lord will keep you from starving!"
These words are preached in the land of the Western Regions!
At the same time as these words were circulating, Ren Taixu also gathered a few servants who really couldn't get along in the Western Regions, and got a lot of news about the Western Regions from their mouths!
Do you know the geometry of the city-states in the Western Regions?
What about the relationship between these city-states?
How strong were these city-states?
Where are you located?
He even formed a caravan and went deep into various parts of the Western Regions to secretly investigate the situation in the Western Regions.
No one knew that when the Western Regions was still applauding the goodwill or weakness of the city lord in the east, the city lord's eyes were on them early, and there was greed in his eyes!
In a year's time, through various means of exploration, Ren Taixu finally had a complete understanding of the entire Western Regions, and even knew how geometrically the armies of some city-states were?
What are the geometries of people who can fight?
Perhaps some kings did not know as much about their city-states as they did about them.
Under such circumstances, Ren Taixu had secretly made a plan to march to battle, and had prepared the materials, armor, and swords for the march, so to speak, everything was ready, just waiting for the east wind!
Finally, the training of a battalion of 5,000 cavalry elites was finally completed, and after Ren Taixu personally inspected it, he immediately knew that the time had come!
I still remember that day, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and under the moonlight, Wancheng in the northwest looked particularly lonely!
In the lonely Wancheng, under the dark moonlight, Ren Taixu took the five thousand elites, one person and three horses, brought the food of January, and quietly left Wancheng.
In the next half moon, first Wuyang City, and then Crescent City......
All the way was according to Ren Taixu's plan!
Before they arrived, these thirteen cities occupied the necessary place in the northwest to go to the Western Regions, all of which were endlessly prosperous, but after they left, they were all ashes!
Men, women, children, and the elderly have all had their heads cut off, this is the Western Regions, and there is no emphasis on benevolence, righteousness and morality!
If you talk to him about righteousness and morality, he will only tell you how to plunge the sword deep into your body!
Ren Taixu also had the intention of bringing these women back, but after thinking about it slightly, he finally gave up, not only because it would bring a burden to the march, but also because there was never a shortage of women in the northwest.
There should be a clear understanding that war will reduce the number of men.
This is the case in the northwest, there are countless women widows in the three counties, and there is no shortage of women here, but they are adult men!
Although objectively speaking, bringing back these women will bring some benefits, but these benefits are not enough to make Ren Taixu change his marching plan.
His plan is not just to plunder, but to have a larger strategic layout!
It's about the entire Northwest and Western Regions!
In short, in the past half a month, burning, killing and looting, pulling out thirteen city-states, and drawing a complete plan for Ren Taixu's plan!
Burning down the city, killing all the aliens, and looting a large amount of supplies, the thirteen city-states have accumulated decades of wealth, enough to sustain the consumption of the three northwestern counties for several years!
Of course, this slaughtering feast exalted the majesty of his sheep-like envoy.
He's not really like a sheep, he's not really as merciful as he says he is, he's a butcher of hell, and everything before is just waiting for an opportunity to come!
Of course, his gains are not only like this, the most important thing is the strategic gains and losses!
The bed of the couch does not allow others to snore!
These thirteen city-states are rooted in the dangerous places connecting the Western Regions in the three counties in the northwest, and taking these thirteen city-states will undoubtedly bring great trouble to the alien races in the Western Regions to attack the northwest!
Burning these thirteen city-states, the three counties in the northwest are completely in a favorable position to attack, retreat and defend.
Once the city-states of the Western Regions want to invade the northwest, they have to face a reality, that is, with thirteen fewer city-states, in the midst of a piece of yellow sand, their logistics will definitely not be able to keep up!
At the same time, these thirteen city-states took advantage of this location and obtained many benefits through the caravans, and these interests promoted the great prosperity of the thirteen cities!
But this interest was taken out of Ren Taixu's bowl, and the interests of trade had long been regarded as food in the bowl by Ren Taixu, how could these thirteen families interfere?
Now that you have shown off your strength, the next step is to start holding the checkpoint and gain the huge benefits of trade!
The interests of trade are very great, and Ren Taixu is deeply aware of this.
In the years when he was the general of Dingcheng in the second life, it was through the interests of trade that he achieved financial freedom, and then had the opportunity to divide one side!
In this life, Ren Taixu has a good chance to reproduce his previous experience, and the Northwest Tiangao Emperor is far away, so he doesn't have to be as cautious as Dingcheng!
In a few years, after the entire military and political system of the three counties in the northwest has formed an interest group, Ren Taixu will be able to completely control the northwest in his own hands, even if he does not have the name of the envoy of the northwest festival, it doesn't matter!
At that time, interests will replace the majesty of the imperial court, even if Ren Taixu takes them to rebel, they will say at most that they are on the thief ship, but the body will follow the direction of interests!
This is the body that is coerced by interests!
Or if it really comes to that time, he Ren Taixu can be called the king of the northwest!
