Chapter 221: Song of the Dynasty
"No," Jiang Chengyuan said, "Chaoge City is located in the north, a hundred years ago, the vassal states have not yet been unified, there is a small country called Qiwu, neither an important stronghold in the Central Plains, nor many financial resources, so it was not until the form of the Four Kingdoms was initially determined, and the war had just ended, that it was included in Daqi by the way, and it was included in the state when the state border was divided. And the vassal states in the area of the original Qinghe in Bangzhou are the most rich and livable, and naturally there are no people who are willing to move to Chaoge, but the people of Chaoge gradually move south, and Chaoge has not developed trade, until now, there are few people in the city, and there are few retail farmers outside the city, and there is no foundation for the establishment of a new city. ”
"That's right." Zhao Wanqing listened carefully to what Jiang Chengyuan said, and then looked at the parchment in her hand and asked, "That Chaoge is not good to defend?" ”
In the past, there were many small cities in Anyang, Zhuangcheng, and Qinghe that could be used as defensive strongholds, and the cities were closely connected with each other, and it was almost impossible for the besiegers to go around or besiege the city. But Chaoge City is bare on the map, there is no village in front of the village, there is no store behind the village, up next to Beizhou and Liao, and on the border between Daqi and Wei, to Daqi, Bangzhou is the farthest from Luoyang is Chaoge, which is the nearest small city, and it takes two inches to walk on the map.
These simple things, Zhao Wanqing can see them at a glance.
Jiang Chengyuan replied: "That's right. Therefore, this king has left 300,000 troops in Anyang first, and it is best to lead the enemy army to continue the diplomatic war in Anyang City, which will be more beneficial to us. ”
Zhao Wanqing didn't want to think about it when it came to business, and her attitude towards Jiang Chengyuan was not frivolous, at this time, she took the map and studied it in her heart for a while, before she raised her head and said to Jiang Chengyuan: "Your Highness, is it possible, we don't want to enter the Song City?" ”
Jiang Chengyuan showed a slightly puzzled expression and said, "Chaoge City, although it was not a major place in the Central Plains before, its location is a little delicate now. ”
"How?" Zhao Wanqing immediately asked.
The army kept moving at a constant pace, and soon it was about to pass through a small border city.
Jiang Chengyuan said: "Wei and Chu are allied with Qi, on the surface they have the same strategy, but in fact, the slightly stronger Chu State is more authoritative, if the enemy army takes the Chaoge, then the Chu State will inevitably unite with the Liao State again, at that time, even if the Liao State is still afraid of the truce agreement with my Great Qi, it will inevitably be forced by the form, and it will be willing to take refuge." ”
Zhao Wanqing nodded after hearing this, and then asked, "What if we unite with the Liao State first?" The two of them have gone all the way, why can't we find an alliance? ”
"You would." Jiang Chengyuan turned his head to look ahead as he spoke, he probably knew that Zhao Wanqing would definitely ask again, so he continued to explain: "Actually, it's not impossible, it's just not necessary. Do you know why, since the last 'retirement of the prince and crowning the king', even if there have been many wars in the four countries, no monarch of any country has been able to complete the great cause of unification? ”
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said honestly: "I don't know." ”
Maybe she should really take a good look at the background introduction of the game with hundreds of thousands of words, but fortunately, Jiang Chengyuan has stopped selling to her, and at this time he also plans to take the initiative to tell her: "This king didn't understand it before, but when this king returns to the court and resides in his mind, he will watch ......"
"Wait, wait." Zhao Wanqing hesitated, and couldn't help but interrupt Jiang Chengyuan's words: "Your Highness said that you should be determined, could it be ...... You...... That one...... Haven't you been able to have a relationship before? Listen to the frost and say......"
Although she knew that these were all system settings, and the world had only been officially running since she arrived, she just cared a little, no, it should be said that she was particularly concerned.
Zhao Wanqing forgot Ling Shuangyin's original words, so her words were completely stuck.
Since Jiang Chengyuan became frank with her, even his expression was relatively much richer, and he was no longer always cold.
At this time, he was helpless on his face, and said: "It's just the reckless heart of young people, in the past, this king lived freely outside the throne and traveled all over the world, there will be some strange rumors." What's more, this king has not yet taken a wife and concubine. ”
Zhao Wanqing saw that he looked at herself at the end, so she smiled and said honestly: "Then I will rest assured." ”
Jiang Chengyuan sighed lightly for some reason, and turned his head to look ahead again.
At this time, Zhao Wanqing heard the system prompt: "Ding~ favorability plus 1." ”
What the? Zhao Wanqing was shocked, 97?!
She hurriedly wanted to speak to Jiang Chengyuan: "Your Highness...... Wait for me. ”
Jiang Chengyuan's horse walked to the front, and Zhao Wanqing had to flick the reins to follow: "Where did we just talk?" Your Highness is contemplating, right? ”
Zhao Wanqing's eyes stared at Jiang Chengyuan seriously when she spoke, as if she wanted to find a switch to increase her favorability from him.
Jiang Chengyuan always remained calm and calm, no matter how "hot" Zhao Wanqing's eyes were, he remained unmoved.
"Why don't you form an alliance with Liao." Jiang Cheng said from afar.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes." Zhao Wanqing nodded again and again, "Why?" ”
Jiang Chengyuan had no choice but to continue to explain: "Among the four countries, my Great Qi has the most financial resources, and the Chu State ranks second, but in terms of military strength, although the number of Great Qi and the Chu State is roughly the same, the Chu people are naturally good at fighting, so they are actually slightly lost." As for the Wei State and the Liao State, they have not occupied the treasure land of the Central Plains, and the manpower and military strength are not inferior to our Great Qi and Chu States, so the balance on the Jinyuan Continent depends on the tension between Qi and Chu, if one side starts a war with the northern country first, it must be worried that it will be caught by the other party's praying mantis, but if it is to start a war against the other party, it must encircle the neighboring northern countries, just like the Wei-Chu coalition formed today. ”
Because he was walking on the road on horseback, talking as he walked, Zhao Wanqing didn't feel that Jiang Chengyuan said a lot at all, but immediately nodded "uh-huh" when he paused, signaling that he could continue.
"As for the Liao State," Jiang Chengyuan said again, "this king has been a guest of the Liao State, and knows that the monarch of the Liao State is a warlike man, and if the Liao army can be allowed to go south and enter the Great Qi in an open and honest manner, I am afraid that it will only increase the trouble." ”
"I see, I guess I understand." Zhao Wanqing said, "Your Highness, rest assured, this kind of thing is still left to me." ”
She said that she habitually wanted to pat her chest to promise, but now that she has a little material on her chest, she didn't shoot it in the end.
Jiang Chengyuan was just noncommittal.
The army marched all the way, and at noon on the third day, Zhao Wanqing saw a large plain in front of her, the ground was a little dry, the surface was cracked, and a piece of grass would emerge from a long distance.
Compared with the Anyang area, which was the land of fish and rice, it is far behind.
In the past two days, the system prompted Zhao Wanqing again, telling her that the date was set for seven days a week, and if you want to ensure a complete memory during the internal test, you have to hurry.
At the same time, the system threw a URL to her on the panel, which was particularly long and messy with a lot of symbols, and there were two strings of hard-to-remember accounts and passwords underneath: "This is the network cloud address I currently use, you can extract the internal test video on the terminal game, as well as the core components of the game." ”
Zhao Wanqing's head was big at a glance, so she had to ask the system if she could do something like "implanting memory" for her.
Of course, the system was rejected.
Zhao Wanqing looked at the plain in front of her and thought about it, then turned around and asked Jiang Chengyuan: "Your Highness, are you going to Chaoge City ahead?" ”
"Hmm." Jiang Chengyuan nodded, "You see that there is a bit of a grayish and black circle, which is the gate of Chaoge City." ”
Zhao Wanqing looked over and saw that it was still far away, but she could see it more or less.
"Chaoge City is really broken." Zhao Wanqing couldn't help but say.
When she arrived in this kind of place, she knew that Luoyang, Qinghe, even Linzi, were really good places, the main street in the city was very lively, the alleys in the city extended in all directions, and there was quality food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Zhao Wanqing took a look at the gray circle of buildings from a distance, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, turned to Jiang Chengyuan and said: "Your Highness, I said before that I should not enter the court song, thinking that since the court song is not valuable, it will not hurt to let a city, but now I have a new idea." ”
Jiang Chengyuan was still curious and asked, "Oh? ”
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Since Chaoge City is so independent here, it is better for us to camp near the Liao State first, and wait for the enemy army to enter Chaoge, and then transfer troops to besiege the city." ”
She has always been looking at the strategy to fight, and this time she used her brain, naturally she was more excited than usual, but halfway through it, she began to almost feel: "When the time comes...... Can be attacked with fire...... Or how? ”
It was obviously her idea to come up, but she asked first.
Zhao Wanqing originally thought that her "tactical inspiration" was going to be wasted, but she didn't expect Jiang Chengyuan to answer: "There is no need to attack with fire, as long as you can cut off the grain and grass resources in the rear of the enemy army, the enemy army will come out." ”
Zhao Wanqing suddenly said: "Yes, why didn't I think of such a simple place?" When they dragged on for a few days before they had to leave the city, our odds increased greatly. ”
Jiang Chengyuan said again: "Don't be too happy too early, the enemy army may not be successful." ”
When Zhao Wanqing heard this, she immediately showed a disappointed face: "Then find some way to let them fall for the trick?" ”
Jiang Chengyuan said: "Send 50,000 soldiers and horses to enter the court first, and when the enemy army comes, they will feign defeat, so that the probability of success will be greater." ”
Zhao Wanqing said: "Okay, I'll go!" ”
In this way, she will have another chance to fight against Wu Jiawei, so that she can complete the task as soon as possible.
Jiang Chengyuan frowned and looked at her, and said, "What is the coach to do to lure the enemy?" ”
He didn't seem to want Zhao Wanqing to go.
Zhao Wanqing paused, and it was still difficult to say the reason why she needed to be there in person, so she made a detour and said: "The more you think it's not, the more true it is, the enemy will definitely be deceived by this scheme." ”
Jiang Chengyuan was noncommittal.
Zhao Wanqing glanced back at the large army, and said, "This time I want light cavalry, and I can run faster." ”
