Chapter 320: The World is in the Storm, a three-year period
In the face of the strong rise of the Xia Kingdom, the other princes in the north and even the Central Regions were quite fearful, because the potential of this country was too amazing.
First of all, King Xia started from scratch to establish a foundation, the country has no sink, and the officials are clear, which can allow a country's luck to be used for development.
The institutional structure of the entire imperial court is complete, the royal power penetrates into the township pavilion without being counterattacked, and the land under its jurisdiction is rich and the people's hearts are attached, and the proportion of red legal networks in each county can be called the first among the vassal states.
Secondly, the army is strong, and the core armed forces have rarely been defeated since the establishment, and the demon army, the forbidden army, and the guard army, including the big snow dragoon, which has newly appeared in the outside world's field of vision, are all top strong armies in any country.
Finally, it is an unprecedented national policy that the princes cannot replicate, and the extraordinary powers of the Martial Immortals, Gods and Buddhas have been integrated by Zhou Bai, and at the moment when the development of the aura revival world is expanding violently, it is almost expected that its grand hegemony is unlimited.
Xia Guo has such a foundation and heritage, and any Qianlong who is aspiring to win the Ninth Five-Year Plan will not dare to ignore it and let it expand.
It's not that they haven't thought about obstructing it, Jing Heng's technique of combining vertical and horizontal can be fully displayed, and the princes are secretly fueling the trouble.
At the invitation of Jing Heng, the teacher became famous.
The northern Lingguo sent more than 100,000 troops to attack Liangzhou, and the Yan State crossed thousands of miles of snow fields with 100,000 iron to spy on Dingzhou, and even the small princes of Daizhou did not have much peace.
If it weren't for the extremely perfect military fort system in the border city of Dingzhou, and the 100,000 Yan cavalry had no choice but to turn around and attack Daizhou, Lu Ding would definitely have some delusions about regaining the land of Xinglong.
This is already the case in the north, and the movements of princes outside the north are even more frequent.
The Jin army went south to capture the Cangbei grassland again, and confronted the Xia army at the border pass of Cangbei County; The Wubo Kingdom took the opportunity to go south to protect the Buddha by force, and the number of casualties in the first battle of Dasanguan and Wuwei was tens of thousands; The Xishu Ba State forcibly left Shu despite the turmoil in the rear, trying to occupy Qinzhou as a fisherman; For a time, the princes of Dongtai suspended the Tianjiang trade with the Xia State, reduced the external supply of various resources, and so on.
Even the Xu Dynasty, which was in internal and external difficulties, did not have any obstruction when Jing Heng burned his luck, but instead added fuel to the fire and gave more financial support to his luck.
If it weren't for the forces of the princes of the world eyeing each other and trying to unite to contain the strong rise of the Xia Kingdom, how could a mere remnant dragon warlord delay for so long.
After the establishment of the scale of the Xia army, Zhou Bai often adopted the way of hegemony to open up his territory to the outside world, relying on the powerful army with leading combat power to push head-on, and few soldiers were in danger.
In order to get off to work quickly, it is inevitable to take risks in the early stage, but often walk by the river without getting your shoes wet.
Facing each other head-on and winning with national strength is the correct way for a major country to compete for hegemony.
In the first battle of Wuwei, Zhou Bai was not allowed to personally lead the troops to make strange moves, which was a manifestation of the critical situation in the Xia Kingdom.
At the beginning of May of the tenth year of Tongzhi, it had been three months since Zhou Bai, the king of Xia, entered Chang'an, and the entire Qinzhou quickly stabilized and was completely under the rule of the Xia State.
This is not only because the efficiency of the Xia court is extremely high, but also because of the recuperation policy announced by the Xia State, which has not used swords for three years and is committed to benefiting the people.
Since the establishment of Zhou Bai's establishment, he has always been in a leading position on the road to the dragon, and is a key chess player to accelerate the world's dragon competition, and has a high reputation among hundreds of millions of people and even the gentry.
Now you suddenly announced that the Xia Kingdom would recuperate for three years, and after three years, there would be many princes in the world, and who else would remember the Xia Kingdom in the northern corner.
Luck, fame, orthodoxy, don't want any of these?
Many families who were watching were sorry for this, thinking that Zhou Bai had made a great trick and pitied the people for the kindness of women.
The princes who were extremely concerned about the Xia State breathed a sigh of relief, openly agitated for it, praised Zhou Bai as the Holy Lord, and secretly withdrew the army gathered on the border of the Xia State and lifted the blockade against the Xia State.
A Northern Hidden Dragon who wants to be the Holy Lord is not a threat to these strong dragons, so why waste resources.
At first, neighbors such as King Jin and Ba Gong thought that Zhou Bai was a delaying tactic, and after three months of observation, they found that Xia Guo was really engaged in internal affairs construction.
The eight counties of Qinzhou were geographically separated and the traffic was congested, so Xia allocated countless money and grain to spend on building roads and bridges, and more than 200,000 people participated in it, and a picture of enthusiasm was naturally displayed.
Not to mention, batches of front-line troops were unarmored and rested, and a large number of Confucian ministers were activated.
This is not something that can be deduced, the main thing is the use of a large number of manpower and material resources, which is manifested in the loss of luck.
At least in the past three months, in the eyes of the Taoist officials under the princes, the national fortunes of the Xia Kingdom, which were rising day by day, came to a standstill.
The Great Xia ichthyosaurus, which was fierce and had the attitude of looking at the northern realm, actually retracted back to the heavenly pillar on the dragon's head and began to recuperate.
There are actual actions, as well as the performance of luck trends, and the attention of the outside world to Xia Guo disappeared for a while.
Regardless of whether Zhou Bai wanted to be a true saint lord or a false saint lord, at present, there was no threat from the Xia Kingdom, and his own national strength could not be used in this illusory joint containment.
For a time, not only did the encirclement pressure faced by the Xia Kingdom disappear, but a large number of envoys from the princes began to rush to Longshouyuan, and they wanted to sign various trade treaties with the Xia State in an effort to express their friendship.
The two sides don't have to attack and fight, and the Xia Kingdom is better off not helping a third country.
Xia Guo recuperated for three years, other countries will not, and in the north, the war for hegemony in the next three years will definitely be more intense.
In June, after confirming that Zhou Bai, the great dragon in the north, was really a soldier and repaired the text, the princes of the north began their own strategic attacks.
However, the first to open the curtain was the Jin Kingdom, where the grasslands were fertile in the summer, and the cavalry could go on expeditions from a distance, and horses and livestock could be supplied everywhere.
Hu Yanhe went south several times to eat deflated, especially the last two encounters were made by Huo Feiguang to lose face, this time after the Xia Kingdom announced that he was resting, he unexpectedly did not go south to harass, but launched a conquest to other grasslands.
The 60,000 Jin army entered the Rouran grassland, annexed large and small tribes along the way, and surrendered everywhere they went.
In mid-June, the Jin army reached the Xiliang Governor's Mansion, and Huo Feiguang took the opportunity to recruit powerful horses in the territory to form a cavalry corps.
Zhou Baifa issued a letter of state to ask Hu Yanhe whether to start a war between the two countries again.
thought that Jin Guo didn't want to fight, at least he would be the surface, but Hu Yanhe's response was to lead another 100,000 Jin troops into Mobei.
Such a posture is obvious, retreating, the hegemony of the Jin State is in the grassland, in the yellow sand desert.
At this time, idle soldiers and horses from all over the Xia Kingdom were quietly gathering on the border, and there were at least 50,000 more war horses, barely enough for a large-scale war on the grassland.
Knowing the dynamics of the Jin Army, the high-level officials of Xia Guo held more than one emergency meeting to discuss it.
"It just so happens that the next three years will be repaired, and I wanted to solve the problem first at any cost, but I didn't expect Jin Jun to come?"
"The top-secret news has not been leaked, it seems that the Jin country has temporarily changed its national policy like my country, and may want to unify the grassland first."
"The princes all said that the king was indecisive and made stinky chess, but he didn't want Huyan and this old opponent to believe it, and it was not wrong to become a black dragon first...... Even so, the whole country can also begin to reorganize the army. ”
In July of the tenth year of Tongzhi, Xia Guo added a test to Enke, and Qinzhou raised more than 100 people, and specially pulled out 30 people from the Xiliang Governor's Mansion.
In August, the Xia State Military Department and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies issued a notice on reorganization, and all military units obeyed the order for reorganization and training in turn.
Daizhou, in the face of the aggressiveness of the Yan army's iron cavalry, after Daizhou lost two counties one after another, the remaining warlord forces in Dainan chose to respect the orders of Daihou Lu Ding, and the whole of Daizhou resisted the strong enemy.
Fighting on the ground and relying on the city, the Yan army made slow progress, and the king of Yan was not allowed to transfer troops from the country many times to support, and the scale of the war was expanded without limit.
Lingzhou, Lingguo did not be quiet for long after Liangzhou was deflated, and the king of Lingzhou ordered to harvest the new summer grain, while supporting Lüding against the Yan army, and at the same time launching an attack on the remaining two major counties of Tongzhou.
Although the Xia State wants to develop internally, in the case of Qinzhou and Tongzhou's neighborhood, it will not sit idly by and watch the entire territory of Tongzhou fall, and various resources will be imported into the water-bearing counties and Linjiang counties through the Tianjiang River.
For the first time in the Tian Yuan Continent, the new term mercenary appeared, and the folk warriors from the Xia Kingdom accepted the employment of the Hanshui Kingdom and the Linjiang Kingdom and went to the battlefield to fight against the soldiers of the Ling Kingdom.
King Ling sent envoys three times in a row to question the officials of the Xia Kingdom, and the replies he received were all "spontaneous among the people", which made him helpless and had no legal basis as a basis.
The prosperous and rich land of Tongzhou, with the support of the "people" of the Xia Kingdom, actually became the meat grinding ground of the Ling Army.
For the next year or so, a strange situation appeared in the northern land, the northernmost Xia Kingdom was quiet, and the other states and countries were all in a mess, and the beacon fire continued endlessly.
Daizhou lost another county, and although Daihou Lu Ding took the opportunity to occupy the territory of the four counties, he also had to face the huge pressure of the Yan army, and he had to ask Lingguo for help with the huge benefits of ceding huge benefits.
In order to prevent the Yan Kingdom from becoming bigger, after the Ling Kingdom reluctantly captured the Hanshui County Kingdom, it acquiesced to the existence of the nail of the Linjiang County State, and the main force entered Daizhou.
In the eleventh year of Tongzhi, the situation in the central region has changed.
In March, Emperor Tongzhi of the Xu Dynasty forbade the ambush of the regent in the palace, but was killed, and the two-year-old only son of Tongzhi was secretly sent to Luozhou by his henchmen.
In May, the Xu Dynasty was divided, and most of the Wenchen and some of the former emperors loyally appointed the crown prince Jinglin as the emperor to ascend the throne in Luoju, and issued a document to accuse the regent Jingrui of rebellion.
In less than three days, the royal elder group invited the concubine of the Xiangxing Dynasty to establish Jingrui as the emperor, refuted the remarks of the Luo Xu court, and established herself as orthodox.
Both sides agreed that the ruler was the first emperor, and when one side was still rebellious, they would not change the yuan for the time being.
However, a super melee gradually spread from the control area of the Xu Dynasty to the entire Central Region.
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the Xu Dynasty is also fat if it is defeated, and the princes have to enter the game if they want to share the soup.
Of course, all this has nothing to do with Xia Guo, and the three-year development plan is being carried out in an orderly manner.
In February of the twelfth year of Tongzhi, the task of suppressing bandits in Qinzhou was completed, and the eight counties were completely opened up to the free movement of people from all over the country.
In March, the official gazette of the Xia State announced that 53 million mu of new fields were acquired, 15 state-owned pastures were expanded, and more than 5,000 breeding mares could be bred......
In April, the Spring Festival was held, and the number of new talents studying official learning exceeded that of the previous session, reaching more than 1,000 people, including more than 100 people in the Xiliang Governor's Mansion.
In June, more than 530 workshops directly under the Ministry of Industry were built, and the specific use was classified as a first-class secret.
In August, the Xia Army completed a two-year rotation training and reorganization, and the Central Army was divided into 30,000 guards and 150,000 Praetorian Guards......
During this period, the 10,000 King Kong Army composed of monks and soldiers who completed the reorganization showed their might in the Xiliang Governor's Mansion in the first battle, and defeated the 50,000 tribal soldiers who rushed into the country from the Rouran Grassland.
In addition, the central armies also performed in their own way, giving the "friendly" neighbors a little shock by force, so that they no longer dared to provoke in the slightest.
Daizhou Lu Ding couldn't stop Yan Guolingguo, and wanted to take Dingzhou as a way out, so he sent 50,000 troops to test the defense of Dingxi, and wanted to see if Xia Guo's recuperation was Ma Fang Nanshan.
But it didn't take the central army to get 50,000 Daizhou diseases, and the Dingzhou garrison had already defeated and retreated, not only breaking his thoughts, but also making him desperate.
Such a powerful Xia Kingdom has been quiet for three years?
This is a terrifying deterrent, and Lu Ding doesn't even dare to think about what to do if Zhou Bai decides to go south, can he only pray that Xia Guo will tie his hands and feet?
There is no true king in the north, and the three-year period is approaching......
