Wang Ze's gaze moved back and forth on the huge sand table!

After a long time, he nodded to Liu Xin and said: "What Mr. Liu said is right, but the three counties of Cangzhou in the north of the river have been relocated once, and the people left behind are basically people who are unwilling to leave home. ”

As he spoke, Wang Ze picked up the wooden pole and pointed to Puyang County south of the river and said to Liu Xin: "Therefore, our target this time can only be Puyang County, West Yanzhou (Jiyin County), Jibei County south of the river, as well as Gaoping County along the Surabaya, and Pingyuan County near the big river, which can be our target!" ”

Liu Xin looked at the sand table and nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty is right, these states and counties are all states and counties on the verge of big rivers and Jishui, we only need to send a fleet to easily relocate the people, but to ensure the safety of the immigrants, we must also have a naval army to stop the Yellow River in Puyang County, as well as the section of Yanzhou in the west of Jishui, so that the Northern Zhou Boat Division will not affect our actions!" ”

Hearing that Liu Xin also agreed with his thoughts, Wang Ze couldn't help but smile proudly: "That's natural, it just so happens that Puyang County, Gaoping County, and West Yanzhou in the south of the Great River have not been attacked by the army, and the population is also prosperous, and they are not far from Sanqi, so they are a good target to start!" ”

Seeing Wang Ze's happy appearance, Liu Xin poured cold water and said: "Your Majesty, although these two places are not bad, but now the Northern Zhou army may surrender Dugu Yongye at any time, and then go down the river to Liangzhou (Kaifeng), they will definitely not sit idly by and watch us move the people!"

In addition, the Southern Chen and Northern Expeditionary armies have now begun to gather around Pengcheng, and Gaoping County is not far from the East Taishan County and Lanling County they occupy, so they are bound to regard Gaoping County as a meal on their plates, so I am afraid that we will become the common target of attack by the other two sides! ”

Wang Ze thought about it, and he had to admit that Liu Xin's concern was correct, but he was still relieved: "Although Mr. is very worried, but now the main force of the Zhou army is attacking the north of the river with all its might, and the army south of the river is only 30,000 partial divisions led by the generals Da Xi Chengxing and Wei Chi Yuan, and the 200,000 troops under Lao Junhou are not vegetarians!" ”

Speaking of this, Wang Ze couldn't help pausing for a moment, turned his head and asked Liu Xin: "I just don't know if this Nanchen has any good ideas?" ”

Wang Ze asked, Liu Xin hesitated for a moment, and then he raised his head and said to Wang Ze: "About Nan Chen, this is related to the third point I said before, we must restore the cooperative relationship with Nan Chen now, only by uniting with Nan Chen can we better contain the great cause of the unification of the Northern Zhou Dynasty!" ”

"Hmph," Wang Ze felt a burst of fire in his heart as soon as he heard Liu Xin's words.

It's not that he's angry with Liu Xin, but as soon as he hears this, he thinks of Nan Chen's ingratitude, although he wants to protect Chen Qian's son Chen Bozong, but after all, he is not ready to support Chen Bozong to regain his position.

However, Chen Ji was first provoked by the Futu Sect and the Southern Chen Shi clan to provoke himself, and then because he coveted the wealth of Yizhou County, he wanted to capture Yizhou and obtain Yizhou's sugarcane and sugar processing technology.

After he defeated Chun Yuliang and Chun Yukun's uncle and nephew who led the naval army to attack, Chen Ji did not apologize, nor did he care about the captured Chun Yuliang's uncle and nephew, and even the original investment industry of some Xia merchants in Nanchen was seized by Nan Chen's people, so that these Xia people suffered a lot of losses.

Then Wang Ze was even more angry, and sent Sun Xing and others to conquer many coastal states and counties in Nanchen, and looted a large number of people from Nanchen.

At this time, Liu Xin suddenly talked about the importance of uniting Nan Chen, Wang Ze didn't know that uniting Nan Chen could better balance the Northern Zhou, but even Nan Chen himself didn't come to contact him, did he have to lick his face and stick upside down, wouldn't this make him look cheap? Wang Ze was angry.

When Liu Xin saw Wang Ze's expression, how could he not know what he was thinking, so he said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, it is undoubtedly a mouse's eyes that Nan Chen Chen is doing this, but what Your Majesty is asking for is the strength of my Xia Kingdom in decades and hundreds of years, how can we understand our thoughts with Chen Xu's vision!"

Although now that we take the initiative to contact Nan Chen, it seems that we are a little disgraced, as long as we can let Nan Chen unite with us to fight against the Northern Zhou, so that the Northern Zhou will be contained, the time to unify the Central Plains will be even longer, and we will have more time to deal with Goguryeo! ”

"Mr. Liu, I also know that you are right!" Wang Ze slapped the table angrily and said fiercely, "But before Chen Ji was so ungrateful, violating my territory and bullying my people, at that time I resisted for everyone to attack Northern Qi, and now they are still prohibiting the merchant ships of our Xia Kingdom from entering Southern Chen, if it weren't for the care of Mrs. Xian and Feng Servant, I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to go to Lingnan!" Now to take the initiative to help them, I feel angry! ”

Looking at Wang Ze's annoyed appearance, Liu Xin's mind turned, because he had already thought of a good idea, he smiled at Wang Ze's angry appearance and smiled: "Your Majesty, I have a good idea, I don't know if Your Majesty would like to hear it?" "Courier

Looking at Liu Xin's smiling and groaning appearance, Wang Ze also took a long breath of helplessness and said, "Since Mr. has any good ideas, let's say it quickly!" You see, I'm in a hurry! ”

Liu Xin smiled and said, "Your Majesty still remembers Chun Yu Liang and Chun Yu Kun?" ”

"What's wrong with these two guys?" Of course, Wang Ze knew that these two people were the generals of Nanchen who attacked him at the beginning, and Chun Yukun was still his old acquaintance when he first arrived in Nanchen, and Wang Ze didn't know what Liu Xin meant by mentioning these two people again.

Looking at Wang Ze's dazed expression, Liu Xin was defeated, and he said helplessly: "Doesn't Your Majesty know that Chun Yuliang and Chun Yukun have been imprisoned in Yizhou all these years?" ”

"Oh, yes, yes! I forgot about it! ”

As soon as Liu Xin said this, Wang Zecai suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing, but at that time, the Xia State was facing many crises and fought several wars in succession, not only to compete with Goguryeo for the land of Beji, but also to support Wang Yong to wage war against the Northern Qi.

In this way, Wang Ze was busy in a daze, where did he have the time to care about these two unlucky guys, and many generals of the Xia Kingdom were also annoyed by Nan Chen's ingratitude, and they didn't bother to pay attention to these two people.

At first, the Southern Chen side was busy defending against the constant attacks and attacks of Sun Xing's army, and after Sun Xing retreated, he was busy participating in the second joint siege of Northern Qi by various countries.

So the uncle and nephew were completely tragic and became forgotten people, but fortunately, the government on the other side of Yizhou has not abused them much, although there has been no good treatment for these two, but at least they don't have to do coolies, and they are given a part of the land to cultivate.

"Your Majesty, don't you know, these two uncles and nephews are now each given 100 acres of land, and the sugar sucrose from the sugarcane they grow is still very high-quality!" Liu Xin laughed as he told the past of these two unlucky guys one by one.

After Liu Xin said this, Wang Ze learned that the uncle and nephew had already started a family in Yizhou, but they were married to two Baekje women.

Huang Fang, the county guard of Yizhou, felt that these two people were the generals of Nanchen after all, and Chun Yukun was still Wang Ze's old acquaintance, so after obtaining the consent of Liu Xin, Yang Ku and others, he selected two Baekje women from the East China Sea who were okay to marry these two people!

These two Baekje women not only managed their families well, but also gave birth to several children for the two of them, and Chun Yu Liang and Chun Yu Kun's uncle and nephew have become good local farmers.

"Unexpectedly, the two generals of Nan Chen were forced to become an old farmer!" Wang Ze was also emotional, but who made the lives of these uncles and nephews miserable, "It's just Mr. Liu, what good role do you say these uncles and nephews have played?" ”

Liu Xin leaned back slightly and smiled: "The old minister's idea is to release these uncles and nephews to Nan Chen, and let them bring our kindness to Chen Ji!" If Chen Ji is really willing to reconcile with us and is ready to form an alliance with us again, he will take the initiative to send us envoys to ask for support, so that we will continue to support Nan Chen! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Xin's voice changed and said: "But if Chen Ji really doesn't know each other and doesn't even appreciate our kindness, then there is no need for us to eat this cold hang!" Lao Junhou also has 200,000 troops there, and the gradual expansion in the future may not be as good as the Northern Zhou! ”

Indeed, Wang Yong has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, and as long as he can train enough recruits in the future, Wang Ze can provide him with corresponding weapons, so even if Nan Chen is unwilling to accept Wang Ze's kindness, Wang Ze can still extend the pace of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to unify the Central Plains by supporting Wang Yong.

Wang Ze laughed when he heard this, and at the same time took Liu Xin's hand and walked to the study next to the tiger's den hall, and laughed loudly: "Mr. Liu, your last sentence is my favorite!" Although the people of our Xia Kingdom are scarce, we are much stronger than Nan Chen in any aspect, although helping Nan Chen is in our strategic needs, but if they don't appreciate it, we don't care if he lives or dies! ”

Liu Xin knew that Wang Ze had been a king for several years after all, and although he had a gentle temper, he already had his own domineering spirit, but it was true, if Nan Chen didn't even accept such kindness, it would mean that Nan Chen deserved to perish!

In a blink of an eye, Pei Xiu appeared at the door of the study in the tiger's den, Liu Xin smiled at Wang Ze knowingly, and then said goodbye, and looked up at the already very warm weather when he went out.
