Chapter 389: Goguryeo's Weakness!
"To deal with the offensive of Goguryeo, there is actually another good note, that is, we will unite with the Khitan and send troops to attack Goguryeo together, but it's a pity that their big leader did not agree to our proposed alliance plan!"
Xu Ning pointed to a large area of land on both sides of the upper reaches of the Liaoshui River in the northwest of Goguryeo, where the grasslands of the Khitan Alliance are now located, where they occupy a large area of fertile grassland on both sides of the Liaohe River, and further west is the territory of the Xi people, and to the north is the territory of the Didouyu and Nanmurwei people.
"Didn't the Khitan covet the pastures around Baicheng? Why are they unwilling to join forces with us to attack Goguryeo? After listening to it for a while, Hu Bingchang, the chief general of the cavalry, also frowned and said puzzled.
Baicheng is a city of Goguryeo in the north of Buyeo City, not far from the Khitan, surrounded by a large area of fertile grassland, is an important livestock breeding place in Goguryeo, before the Khitan coveted this grassland, there have been several large-scale wars with Goguryeo.
Because the place where these wars took place was really remote, and the Khitan at this time was such a weak nation, there were only a few simple words in the official history books of the Central Plains, and the war ended in the defeat of the Khitan.
After Wang Ze learned this information from Bo Jiatu and others, he sent envoys to the Khitan many times, wanting to unite with the Khitan to attack Goguryeo, but the Khitan was afraid of Goguryeo's power after all, even if Li was supporting Wang Ze's proposal, he still refused.
After listening to Hu Bingchang's question, Xu Ning explained: "The news from Liaodong City says that at present, the Khitans are taking advantage of some changes in the Didouyu tribe in the north and are fighting for the annexation of the Didouyu tribe, so they rejected our proposal on this basis, and this time the Khitans will never be able to count on it."
However, we still have good news here, and when General Jiang came, he brought us good news, the Murowei tribe in the Wanshui Valley is willing to help us deal with the Nanmurwei people! ”
"Which one of the Murowei people?" Zhang Hang said curiously, at present, the Murwei people are bounded by the large and small Xing'an Mountains, divided into the South Murwei people, the North Murwei people, not to mention, in addition, there are large Murwei along the Heilongjiang River near the Mohe River in later generations, and there are also deep and late Tanburo Wei in the upper reaches of the Jieya River, and there are also Bomurwei tribes in the north.
It is really dizzying to see so many Murwei tribes, and Zhang Hang asked this because of this, after all, there are too many Murwei tribes, although one of their later members is very famous and established the famous Mongol Empire.
However, today's Murowei people have not yet become nomadic people, they are still living in extremely harsh cold forests, relatively weak fishing and hunting tribes, and there are at least five or six hundred years before they grow up and become strong in later generations.
Xu Ning said with a smile: "Of course, it is the Northern Murro Wei people, who gave the Northern Murro Wei people a big lesson when General Jiang passed through the water, but the Northern Murro Wei people are willing to take refuge in the more powerful us, and the attack on the Southern Murmur Wei people is their vote!"
In addition to the Beimurwei people in the Wanshui Basin, all the Heishui Ministry's Tatars along the Tongjiang River have now all surrendered to us, and now most of the Heishui Ministry's Ministry, and the Wushui (Ussuri River) Basin's No. 1 Department also completely surrendered to us last month! ”
These tribes of the Tatars were accepted by Wang Ze, not because of any preferential policies for ethnic groups, but because they wanted to join Wang Ze's army and work for Wang Ze, which was also a good way to assimilate these Tatars through the army.
After Xu Ning's introduction, everyone finally understood the current situation, this time the combat situation in the land of Beji was similar to that before the battle of Tongmenjiang, both sides were each recruiting local natives to help them fight, but this time the impact was greater.
Obviously, in this operation to win over the indigenous tribes, Xia Guo suffered a little loss!
Most of the leaders of the Ya tribe saw that many leaders of the Heishui Department had been liquidated by Wang Ze, so they would rather go to Goguryeo, which had an equally bad reputation in the past, to seek a future that they didn't know if they had, rather than to take refuge in Wang Ze, who was willing to accept them sincerely.
Compared with those who only know a little bit about the Xia Kingdom, there are also many people who are closely related to the Heishui Department and the Trumpet Chamber, and after seeing the happy life of their relatives in the Xia Kingdom, they also led their respective tribes to be willing to take refuge in Wang Ze.
"Bangbang" With the sound of two taps on the table, Wang Ze finally spoke, "General Xu explained very carefully, all the generals should probably understand what is going on!" ”
Saying that, Wang Ze got up and walked to the map, took the wooden pole in Xu Ning's hand, pointed to the huge map and drew a large circle: "Actually, I'm not too worried about Goguryeo's actions this time!" You must know that now we are the real overlord of the East China Sea! ”
At this moment, Wang Ze's self-confidence overflowed, and he said proudly: "Up to now, there are more than four million people in our East China Sea, and there are nearly 200,000 standing troops, and there are hundreds of thousands of other county national guards, white wolf battalions, and lion cub battalions.
In the war against Goguryeo, we don't have to wait for Goguryeo to attack us before we can counterattack, the war can be carried out at any time, and it is an all-round war, for example, our previous comprehensive blockade of Goguryeo's foreign trade is a kind of economic warfare, which can greatly weaken Goguryeo's war potential! ”
Wang Ze pointed to the map of Goguryeo and said to the generals: "Over the years, Goguryeo first conquered Baekje and gained thousands of miles, and then vigorously expanded all parts of Liaodong in recent years. It seems that Goguryeo is much stronger, and it can threaten our safety in the land of Beji! Chase Yo Literature
But in my opinion, this is not the case, and Goguryeo is now when he is most vulnerable! ”
Wang Ze's words shocked the generals in the hall!
Before, they were all quite worried that the coming army of Goguryeo would cause too much damage to the land of Beji, but who knew that Wang Ze would say that he had never regarded Goguryeo as a big threat now!
The audience was quite puzzled, Wang Ze took a wooden pole and gestured up and down the territory of Goguryeo: "Don't you think that Goguryeo is now a long snake formation in the north and south poles? ”
Since the occupation of Baekje, the southernmost territory of Goguryeo has extended a distance of nearly 1,000 miles from Gwangju, the birthplace of Baekje, bordering the waters of Jeju Island, to the north through Buyeo Fortress in Liaodong, and to the Nanshui Valley, so that the longest part of the entire Goguryeo north and south is more than 4,000 li.
Look at the east and west of Goguryeo, because the terrain of Goguryeo is mountainous and plateau in the east, and plains in the west, so most of the strength of the entire country is actually distributed along the narrow plains of the west coast, forming an extremely narrow strip of land.
"Your Majesty's meaning, does it mean that we should take advantage of the opportunity of the Goguryeo army to attack the Nanshui Valley and take the opportunity to attack Goguryeo itself?" Zhang Hang became excited all of a sudden, and carefully calculated that since the original all-out war of annihilation against the Japanese State, the Xia State had not really eliminated a country for many years.
Of course, the Southern Tianzhu and Zheluo countries in the West do not count, the main force attacking these two countries at that time was the Pandian army, and the army of the Xia State was only assisted!
At the time of the attack on the Wa Kingdom, Zhang Hang had to return to the rescue with Wang Ze because of the attack on Jeju Island by the combined forces of Baekje and Silla, and finally failed to participate in the war to destroy the Wa Kingdom, which became Zhang Hang's regret for many years.
At this time, hearing Wang Ze's plan, Zhang Hang couldn't bear it all of a sudden, he kept rubbing his palms, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, this is the second time we have destroyed the country over the years, and this time we have to send my old Zhang to the front!" We didn't have a wheel to destroy the Japanese kingdom at the beginning! ”
"General Zhang, everyone has something to eat! You can't rob it," Jiang Chuan said with a smile, "Besides, Your Majesty didn't treat you badly at the beginning, didn't Sihyeonseong, the capital of Baekje Kingdom, be defeated by you?" This time, let's all listen to His Majesty's arrangement! ”
With the words of Zhang Hang and Jiang Chuan, all the generals became excited, carefully calculating that the Xia State had not launched such a large-scale war for many years, although Wang Ze mobilized a full 200,000 troops when he destroyed the Japanese State, but most of them were militiamen.
Like today, there are nearly 200,000 standing troops alone, all of whom are brave and good soldiers, but there has never been a command, where is it more comfortable to lead a large elite army to fight a war?
Seeing that the generals were making a fuss, Wang Ze knocked on the wall with a wooden pole with a smile, and he said to Jiang Chuan: "General Jiang, you don't have to participate in the battle against the Goguryeo people this time, you go back and immediately continue to attack upstream along the water and subdue the Omuro Wei people!" ”
Wang Ze pointed to the west of the Mohe River in later generations, about the confluence of the Troubled River and the Heilongjiang River, and said to Jiang Chuan: "In the future, the more prosperous we will build in the land of Beji, it will inevitably attract the covetousness of the Turks and Tiele people, and this topography is the key to holding the upper reaches of the water!"
I ask that you sweep away all the tribes of the Murwei people along the coast within two years, and those who can subdue the people of my Xia Kingdom and convert to the Haotian God Sect can scatter and settle in various places for the people of my Xia Kingdom, and if those who are stubborn will be killed! ”
In the past two years, with the development and occupation of the Beji land, Wang Ze is no longer like in the past, as long as he punishes all the people of the country as slaves after the destruction of the country, after all, these are the distant branches with Yanhuang blood, and now it is just right for them to return to the right path.
Brother, this is also to promote national integration! At this time, Wang Ze was very proud in his heart, after all, he was also promoting historical progress!
Although Jiang Chuan really wanted to participate in the war against Goguryeo, he knew exactly what was good and bad, and knew the long-term importance of what Wang Ze said to the Xia Kingdom in the future, so he got up and responded: "Your Majesty, rest assured, I promise to complete the task!" ”
Seeing Jiang Chuan's somewhat depressed appearance, Wang Ze smiled and said: "Don't look like that, Goguryeo is a powerful country in the East China Sea after all, and it will be difficult to destroy it within two years, if you finish all the arrangements in Shuishui after two years, you will still have a chance to participate in the siege of Goguryeo!"
By the way, Yongding City (Hailan Pao) can already set up a county there, and the city you build after the new occupation can be named by yourself! ”
After that, Wang Ze no longer cared about Jiang Chuan, he said loudly to the generals in the hall: "All armies listen to orders, I will arrange the combat tasks of each army below, and after receiving the order, you must act according to the order. ”
