"Your Majesty, if you really want to let the Baiyin people persist while maintaining sufficient strength, I am afraid that the empire will have to risk a total deterioration of relations with the Sithroes, the Kaman side does not have to worry too much, we have already controlled Jiayu Pass, and our defense system on the front line of Gerlok has been perfected, and we can fully assume the heavy responsibility of defending the throne, the most worrying thing for the minister is in this matter, if the Sithlos have the support of the other three kingdoms of Liboa, the pressure we are under in the north will be too great, especially when the next military operation of the empire may be carried out in the south first。 Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Ling Tian pondered his words, this was a very small discussion, and the participants except for His Majesty the Emperor were only his deputy, the Right Privy Councillor, Bo Jinchen.

Wu Feng could hear the meaning of Ling Tianfang's words, he tended to support the Sykes tribe to maintain and grow its strength, thinking that the Dore tribe that had always been a little less obedient could be properly taught a lesson, as long as the Dore tribe could drag the empire through this half a year, it would be considered to be enough, as for the strength of the Doer tribe might be greatly weakened, it was not within the scope of the empire's consideration.

Ling Tianfang believes that after the empire solves the southern problem, even if the Liboya people are united, it is impossible to compete with the empire, and the comprehensive national strength of the empire will far surpass the united four kingdoms of Liboya, even if the Baiyin people can't exert a little strength, the empire can solve the Liboya as long as they adopt appropriate tactics such as each break, and now the empire is not ready to turn against the Liboas, and the empire can't fall on the tail of the Liboas when it is actively preparing to use troops against the south, and it is most appropriate to maintain a good or at least passable relationship with the Liboas in the near future。

"Tianfang, we have to take a more long-term view, the strength of the Sithro people is now recovering quickly, and the two people who are now in charge of the Kamen are also affected by the Siathrow and become more pragmatic, in fact, in addition to the adjustment of military policies, their economic development strategy has not changed much from when Gomez was in charge, and once the Kamen military shrink means that they can have more energy to develop the economy, if the Sithro and the Kamans, the two troikas of the Liboas, once developed, the empire will have to face greater difficulties when carrying out the Northern ExpeditionI don't think I can let the Sithlos and Kamans develop like this, and I have to let the Bains slow them down. ”

Wu Feng didn't quite agree with Ling Tianfang's opinion, he would rather take a variety of methods to let the Baiyin people drag down the Liboya people now, rather than face a powerful Liboya group in the future, even if it was the price of making enemies with the Siathrows now.

Ling Tianfang was very skeptical that it was that Tuo Ji who played any role in it, but he couldn't question His Majesty's opinion, he had already stated his opinion, but if His Majesty the Emperor insisted on his own opinion, then he could only accept it, and the military strategic deployment of the Privy Council had to be changed accordingly, which made him a little unwilling.

"Your Majesty, then our military deployment in East Tengger County and Northwest County and even Beiyuan County needs to be readjusted, and the existing military strength is not enough to deal with the conflicts and even wars that may arise after the conflict with the Sislo and Kamans. Ling Tianfang reluctantly raised his worries, "If this sub-war state lasts too long, it will affect our planned war plan in the south. ”

"Well, I've been thinking about this issue for a long time, Cui Wenxiu wants to continue to push forward the empire's westward expansion plan in the middle of this year, he wants to take back the South Merry and the Northwest Indo-German Security Department, I've been worried about this problem, if Cui Wenxiu implements this plan, will there be a full-scale war with Siolan and the Empire? The Hansen Alliance also needs to consider this issue, I originally wanted to transfer two or three legions to strengthen the defense of the northern front, but if Cui Wenxiu wants to advance his plan, then the army of the Central Continent cannot be transferred, and the defense of the north is a problem. Wu Feng was also a little distressed.

"Since Your Majesty has made up your mind to disrupt the development plans of the Sithroes and Kamans and support the Baiins, then we first need to strengthen the defense of the northern front, and it is inevitable to draw troops from the Central Continent, and if necessary, we can also draw a legion from the Southwest, but to wage war against the Hansen Alliance and the Takran and West Oran in a year, this will affect the overall planning and layout of the empire. Therefore, the minister thought that if General Cui Wenxiu thought that it was indeed necessary to launch a war this year, then he could only design it according to the maximum scale of the four corps and four cavalry regiments to be used, and could not exceed this limit, otherwise it would affect the deployment of other aspects of the empire, and the deployment of two additional corps on the northern front, mainly on the Yulin and Yinchuan lines, should be able to meet the needs, and we could station cavalry-based mobile forces in Jiayu Pass, if the Sislo and Kamanites really wanted a showdown with us over the Baiyin issue, we could also use the mobile forces to carry out early strikes and disrupt their war plans, which also buys us some time to readjust. ”

Bo Jinchen, who had not spoken, finally interjected, he advocated reducing the defensive force of the passive surname, and adopting the assault surname of expanding the mobile force to deter the Sithro and Kamans, so that they did not dare to have a showdown with the empire easily, so as to avoid too much impact on the Central Continent, but also actively prepare for the war in the south, as long as the Baiyin people can drag it out until July, the shipping channel between the Xuanbing Ocean and the Bering Sea can be opened, and the Baiin people can be provided with sufficient supplies through shipping, and the Baiin people can survive this year until next summer, I believe that the relationship between the empire and the Liberians needs to be repositioned by then。

Bo Jinchen's opinion made both Wu Feng and Ling Tianfang feel bright, if a sufficient number of mobile cavalry were deployed in the area of Jiayu Pass, once the Sislo and Kaman people intended to take means against the empire to assist the Baiin people in counterattacking, the mobile cavalry could protrude from Jiayu Pass and attack the southern region of the Sislo and Kamans, although this may not be able to pose a mortal threat to the Sislo and Kamans, but at least it could allow the Sislo and Kamans to consider the consequences of taking military measures against the Empire.

"Well, Your Majesty, Jinchen's opinion is worth a try, now that Jiayuguan is in our hands, as long as we deploy about 100,000 rangers here, I believe that both the Sislo and the Kamans will consider the price of their use of force against the empire, which can also minimize our pressure on the northern defense line, and we can also deploy the necessary cavalry force on the East Tengger Grassland to suppress the Sithro from both sides and prevent them from jumping over the wall. ”

Ling Tianfang nodded in agreement, his deputy's tactical views have always been his strength, and many times he is even more sensitive and unique than himself, Ling Tianfang does not hide his admiration for this deputy.

Wu Feng also sensed the novelty of this point of view, rather than spending heavy troops to garrison the northern defense line, it is better to prepare sufficient mobile forces for deterrence, forcing the Sithro and Kaman people not to dare to move, as for the possibility of a conflict with the Sithro in the territory of the Sykes tribe, it is another matter, as long as the war does not turn into a full-scale war, the empire can accept it, otherwise the empire may have to reconsider the strategy of first south and then north.

Tara and Takla were undoubtedly overjoyed when they learned of the Empire's decision, and they didn't know what had caused Wu Feng to suddenly become so reasonable, and although they refused the request to lift the ban, they were given a way out that they had never hoped for.

Getting supplies from the eastern passage is completely a last resort option, importing materials from the east is not only difficult to transport, but also huge losses, and will be affected by all kinds of possible variables, the Dorr tribe is not desperate and will not make this decision, if the empire can use force to ensure the passage in the territory of the Sykes tribe, it is the best for both the Sykes tribe and the Dorr tribe, that means that the Sykes tribe and the Dorr tribe will be protected by the imperial armed forces, at least the Sithro and Kaman people have to consider the possibility of facing the threat of force from the Tang side before taking a large-scale military action against the Boyin tribe。

The Spring Festival Ceremony finally kicked off in the heart of Bai Yinren's satisfaction and gratitude, Wu Feng didn't like this kind of somewhat cumbersome and lengthy ceremony, he also believed that no matter which emperor was afraid that he would be bored with this kind of ritual that was purely a performance, but as the founding emperor of the Tang Empire, this was the first Spring Festival since the establishment of the empire, no matter from which angle, he had to stick to the end throughout the whole process.

From worship to viewing, from holding a grand dinner to watching folk performances from all over the world, from climbing the palace tower to accept the people's worship to walking down the city tower and getting in close contact, this series of show-like forms made Wufeng tired and exhausted, followed by Wufeng In addition to Queen Angel who couldn't bear it because of her body, Situ Yutang, Lin Yuexin, Annie, Zhu Zimei, Su Jie and other concubines were also huddled behind them from one place to another, with a formulaic straight smile, receiving representatives and congratulators from all over the mainland, from getting up early in the morning to returning to the palace late at night, with countless fireworks and firecrackers blooming in the four cities of Yanjing, declaring that the Tang Empire has finally gone through an important moment in its history and entered the second year of the establishment of the empire.
