Few of the southern vassals could see the crisis faced by the whole of Middle-earth, and the southward movement of the Hu people seemed to him to be more of a competition for the land of the Central Plains and Hebei, and it really rose to the threat south of Huaishui, and few people believed it, and as for the south of the Great River, no one would believe that those Hu people could get used to the land of Zhouji.

It is an indisputable fact that it is difficult for the Hu people in the north to adapt to the humid and hot climate and rugged terrain in the south, but once these Hu people take root in the Central Plains and enter the summer, then it may not be long before they will adapt to it, and then those Han people who have formed a community of interests with them may take the initiative to help them go south.

Even within Huaiyou, the degree of understanding of the threat of the Hu people going south is also uneven, like Wang Miao and Cui Shang may have a deeper understanding, but Yang Kan and Mei may not be able to, from the bones, they may not think that the Hu people can hit the south of Huaishui, and even if they can, they may not be able to occupy the south of Huaishui for a long time.

If Jiang Feng hadn't come from another time and space and saw the history of the future, he might have believed it the same, but the southern invasion of the Jurchens made the Northern Song Dynasty lose its territory, and the Mengyuan Empire simply completely destroyed the Han regime.

"Nanyang is the most dangerous. Cui Shang and Yang Kan said almost in unison.

"Oh, how can you see that?" Mei said with some interest, raising her eyebrows.

"Liu Tong and Liu Xuan are insulted, the brothers are against the wall, and the Shatuo people support the righteousness of the Li Tang royal family, so it is easy to pull the allied army from the two, especially when the army controlled by Liu Tong and Liu Xuan has been separated, especially when the army controlled by Liu Tong and Liu Xuan has been separated. Cui Shang and Yang Kan exchanged glances and said calmly.

"For the sake of his son's future, Liu Xuan may be more likely to take the bait. Yang Kan added: "Because he knows that if he doesn't take the lead, once he is preemptively subordinated by his brother, he may never have a chance." ”

"I think Caizhou is no less dangerous than Nanyang. Wang Miao shook his head, "In the face of the squeeze of us and Nanyang, if the Yuan family wants to quickly strengthen themselves and go south to Hubei and Huang, they will inevitably be trapped in it and will not be able to get out in a short time, and the Yuan family is still in the Central Plains at all, and it is their greatest ambition to annex Xu, Chen, Bian, Song, Zheng Zhuzhou, and even Henan Mansion in the north." ”

"Hehe, isn't the Shatuo people busy in vain when they go south?" Yang Kan sneered.

"Maybe the Yuan clan will think that the Shatuo people will be like other Hu people, just grab a handful in the Central Plains and leave?" Wang Miao said leisurely.

"Hmph, what about the Khitans? Don't you always think that the Khitans are more dangerous?" Yang Kan asked: "Their current performance is not like they just take a handful and leave, Liu Shouguang is already a little unbearable, even if the current situation continues, Lu Long will become a Khitan pasture sooner or later." ”

"Yes, so if we peel through these dense fogs that shroud us, we can find that once the Hu people go south, they will not just take a handful of it and leave as before, they are actually gradually accepting the institutional structure of our Han people, and they also want to enjoy civilization in the Central Plains for a long time, the problem is that their enjoyment is based on the premise of enslaving our Han people. Jiang Feng moved his body a little lazily, "But looking around, how many people can see this?"

The crowd will be silent.

"What we can do is to do everything in our hands in a solid manner, improve our own strength as quickly as possible and do our best, lay a good foundation for future drastic changes, and calmly deal with all kinds of possible risks. Jiang Feng raised his voice slightly, "Over there in Yunzhou, there is no need to be too concerned with the Chao family, contact the Chao family again, let them judge the situation, I will only give them one last chance!"

Seeing Jiang Feng's tone stern, Cui Shang stood up and hugged his fists in response.

"The matter of Haizhou should not be delayed any longer, Yu Mingzhen's side has almost prepared, even if there are still some problems, but there are risks in fighting, the Wuning Right Army has just been established, and if it does not fight two decent battles, how can it be integrated? I think the Wuning Left Army has done a good job, and it has been practicing while fighting, and Hu Biao's Wuning Left Army will soon stand out?"

Jiang Feng's eyes fell on Yang Kan, "Yu Mingzhen submitted two plans to the Privy Council before, one is to take Haizhou directly, the other is to cut off Mizhou, and then take Haizhou, I don't think there is any need to be stubborn, since Wang Shouxin is quite shrunken turtle, then don't blame me for being unkind, Cui Shang, let Yu Mingzhen take the second plan, Yang Kan, your Huai Right and Left Army will draw five armies out of Yizhou before they come out, and you lead the army as the general reserve!"

Cui Shang and Yang Kan got up at the same time to listen to the order.

No one would have imagined that what was originally just a military discussion would suddenly turn into a thunderous decision.

Jiang Feng's sudden, indisputable order made the Privy Council suddenly busy, but it was not flustered.

The staff of the First World War in Haizhou had already been planned, and the consultation plan with the right army of Wuning had already been made.

However, the government department is a little busier, after all, in the preparation of materials, it is still necessary to dock with the logistics department of the Privy Council, especially many heavy cattle, horses, vehicles and equipment need to be transferred from Xuzhou or even Shouzhou to Yizhou, which will take time.

Fortunately, the Huaiyou who have mastered the Huainan and Huaibei places has become stronger and stronger in the control of waterway shipping, although the Yishui from Xiapi to Yizhou is intermittently navigable, but after all, it can also reduce a lot of transportation pressure, and only need to be transported by cattle and horses in the navigable road section, which can also be a lot more convenient.

"Chao Gong, the situation has become more and more clear, with Chao Gong's wisdom, can't you see the clues?" Hou Chen sat on the guest seat for a long time, raised the teacup and took a sip, frowned, is still cooking tea here?

"The county prince has a high opinion of Chao Gong, Yunzhou County Gong is determined to win, I believe that Chao Gong also understands this reason, we also know that Chao Gong and Da Liang have a connection, but Da Liang is now too busy to take care of himself, not to mention Yunzhou, that is, Jeju fell into the hands of Zhu Mao, and Da Liang has no time to ask, in this situation, does Chao Gong still not understand?"

Chao Dasheng's white eyebrows shrugged slightly, "Dare to ask Lord Hou, Zhu Mao went north to Jeju, but the county duke instructed him?"

Hou Chen didn't expect Chao Dasheng to ask this question, and after a little hesitation, he said calmly: "Chao Gong, it stands to reason that a certain person should not answer this question, but a certain person thinks that Chao Gong must have made a decision, so there is no need to cover it up, Mao Gong should be a helpless move to go north, but in the north, the county prince and Mao Gong have an agreement, as for how to agree, a certain does not know." ”

Hou Chen's words are half-true and half-false, there may be some tacit understanding between Zhu Mao and Jiang Feng, but leaving Yanzhou to go to Jeju is also a last resort, if you don't leave, there is only a battle there, and if you leave, there may be some chance, Jiang Feng will not hesitate to support, as for how to develop in the future, it depends on the change of the situation.

Hearing Hou Chen say this, Chao Dasheng also knew in his heart, Jiang Feng is not the kind of ruthless person, even Zhu Mao can leave a line, although the Chao family has also offended and disobeyed before, but it is also for the interests of the Chao family, now that it has passed, it is also the right thing to serve.

"Lord Hou, Chao was reckless and reckless before, and he didn't know ...... the county magistrate"

"Hehe, Chao Gong actually has a calculation in his heart, isn't it? What kind of person is the county duke, the gully in his chest is not for us to speculate in vain, since he sent a certain person here, he will naturally be assigned, and he will rely on Chao Gong a lot in the future, although he can relax!" Hou Chen was also determined in his heart, and stood up, "Congratulations to Chao Gong, you and I will be ministers of the same palace in the future." ”

Chao Dasheng also threw away all his previous concerns, and said with a smile: "Chao is old, I'm afraid it will be difficult to serve the county prince, but Chao's five sons are willing to lead the horse for the county prince." ”

"Chao Gong's words are bad, the ancient saying is cloudy, Lao Ji Fu is determined to be thousands of miles, not to mention that Chao Gong is only sixty, before a certain came, the county prince specially recruited a certain advice, in the future, Huaiyou will set foot in the Central Plains, is going to rely on Chao Gong. Hou Chen said.

Seeing that Hou Chen didn't seem to be a lie, Chao Dasheng was also at ease in his heart, but he didn't know much about Huaiyou's strategy, and he seemed to be able to figure out a thing or two from Hou Chen's words.

"I don't know ...... the county duke" Seeing that the other party tried to inquire, Hou Chen did not hide it, and nodded, "In the future, Chao Gong will have the opportunity to know, but here I can also reveal one or two, the meaning of the county duke, I hope that Chao Gong can integrate the fine work of Cao Pu and the two states as soon as possible, and it will be of great use, and the Juye Navy will be integrated into the Wuning Navy Army,...... , the first line of Heze Baigou, Jishui, and even the big river will be the battlefield of the Wuning Navy in the future,......"

Chao Dasheng's heart was awe-inspiring, and the other party mentioned that it should be integrated into a naval army, but he first mentioned Cao Pu Erzhou, could it be that Huaiyou is going to enter the Central Plains at this time?

Seeing the look of doubt in Chao Dasheng's eyes, Hou Chen also understood the other party's worries, "Don't worry about Chao Gong, the county prince has his own considerations." I'm afraid that Chao Gong also knows that the current Liang is in trouble, and Huaiyou also has to guard against it, if the Shatuo people break through the great river and natural danger, the general trend is difficult to reverse, and Huaiyou also has to plan in advance, only by taking Cao Pu and the two states, can Yanyunyi and Huaibei Prefectures be covered,......"

Chao Dasheng's heart was a little wider, and then he said: "That is the case, why doesn't the county prince help Daliang and fight the Hu people together?"

"Chao Gong, Huaiyou Wuning, across the Jianghuai, non-Heshuo and other feudal lords are comparable, and they also rely on a lot of the imperial court, Hedong in the name of respecting the king and punishing rebellion, the county prince does not dare to risk the disapproval of the world. Hou Chen sighed, "What's more, there are a lot of places for Huaiyou to use troops at the moment, and the cost is huge, and the savings of the first two years have been almost consumed. ”

Chao Dasheng was also a little moved when he saw Hou Chen so reassuring, "It's Chao Meng Lang, but Chao also feels that if the Hu people really go south, it will be a big disaster for our Han people in the Central Plains, and we must prepare early." ”
