Chapter 361: Why did the general hesitate
Xing Daorong returned to the General's Mansion and went directly into the study.
He told the Qingping Daoist about the two things that happened in the court today.
"The general wants to control the Ministry of Industry, but he wants to control the Yamen of the Capital Division. But now that the emperor and the generals have withdrawn from the Yamen, the Ministry of Works has lost its meaning to the generals." Qingping Daoist said.
"Hmm."
Xing Daorong nodded.
Originally, he wanted to oppose the removal of the new yamen. Obviously, the emperor did not want to put the power of making weapons in his hands.
But Dao Rong didn't expect that the emperor was so bold that he actually gave the power of weapon manufacturing directly to Su Xuan.
The emperor severed his connection with the authority of the household, even if he controlled his money bag.
But now, he is not allowed to touch the weapon, is this forcing him to rebel?
After this period of recuperation, the number of the Wushuang Army may not exceed 30,000, right?
Although they have a very powerful class, those dozens of people cannot make or break the battle on the frontal battlefield.
Originally, Xingdao Rong thought that the emperor was delaying time by holding the Ministry of Works.
The emperor's move, does it mean that the Wushuang Army is already much stronger than he imagined?
Now the chess game between the two sides is very stable, and he doesn't know why the emperor suddenly took such a step.
Now Xing Daorong is already a little anxious.
In the past, he always felt that he and the emperor could check and balance each other. But only now did he realize that the emperor's mental skills were slightly higher than him.
Could it be that the emperor bit him to death and now he does not dare to rebel? That's why there is such an action?
"General, you can consider ...... Something happened." Qingping Daoist said in a deep voice.
The road is early
I remembered it, but I wasn't sure at all, how dare I do it rashly?
If he didn't have a showdown, he would still be a member of the Great Yan Imperial Court, and there were not a few people who depended on him.
Once he chooses a showdown, he is on the opposite side of the Great Yan Dynasty.
"No matter how strong the Tiance Legion is, can it have the strength to confront the Great Yan Dynasty?" Xing Daorong squinted his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.
Today's Great Yan Dynasty is already one of the three major dynasties in the Eastern Continent.
Emperor Jingyang reigned for more than ten years, except for the encirclement and suppression of the fog mound with the Great Xia Dynasty, he did not launch any large-scale wars.
He has always rested with the people.
Although the Great Yan Dynasty is not at its peak, let alone comparable to Daxia and Daliang, to a certain extent, it is also a country and a people's peace.
Although the treasury is empty at the moment, the reason why the treasury is empty is related to the control of the money and grain of the household department before Xing Daorong.
Besides, the emptiness of the treasury does not mean that the armies are also empty.
The Musou Army had suffered heavy losses before, how could it recover its numbers in such a short period of time? Didn't you pile up the money in it?
"The terrain of Qingzhou Mansion is dangerous, and the general can cross the sword gate with Da Yan to rule. Jianmen Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, while Tiance Army has both offense and defense. Retreat can be based on Qingzhou, recuperate, strengthen strength, and go east to go straight to the hinterland of the Central Plains of Dayan.
If the army has been assembled today, and the Qingzhou Mansion is all under the control of the general, as long as the general raises his arms and stands up as king, millions of people in Qingzhou will definitely bow down and call themselves courtiers."
Qingping Daoist said in a deep voice.
"Qingzhou has only a few million people, while the Great Yan Dynasty has more than a million troops. If I are king, all parts of the Great Yan Dynasty will surely be raised
The righteous banner of the crusade jointly attacked my Qingzhou. At that time, even if I can hold Qingzhou, how much strength will I be able to fight against the Great Yan Dynasty?" Xing Daorong asked rhetorically.
He still has a lot of scruples. If things were really as simple as Qingping Daoist said, he would have been proclaimed emperor a long time ago.
However, he does not deny that Qingping Daoist is reasonable.
Qingzhou is a place with a vast area, and there is a high city of Xiongguan, and there is indeed the possibility of dividing and ruling with the Great Yan Dynasty.
"The Admiral's thoughts and fears are not unreasonable,
But you're missing a point. If the general rises up, he can unite with the Great Xia Dynasty. This bit of the Great Yan Dynasty has long been defeated by the first emperor.
At that time, the Great Yan Dynasty will be attacked from both sides, and the country will definitely be broken. The general can negotiate with Great Xia to divide up the territory of Great Yan."
Qingping Daoist said.
It's not that Xing Daorong hasn't had such thoughts before.
But how powerful was the Great Xia Dynasty? At that time, even if Great Xia is really willing to join forces with him to defeat Great Yan, after destroying Great Yan, will the Great Xia Dynasty, which has wolf ambitions, agree to divide the territory with him?
Great Yan only has one large corps, while Great Xia has four of them! The four major corps combined, with more than one million troops!
He was sure to repel any large corps in Great Xia, but he was not sure to repel the four major corps.
Therefore, even if he joins forces with Daxia to extinguish Da Yan at that time, he will still make wedding clothes for Da Xia.
Part of the reason why he has not been in trouble is that he is worried about Great Xia.
Even if he didn't unite with Great Xia, as long as Great Xia knew that he was in trouble, Great Xia would definitely cross the Moon Lake and invade the territory of Great Yan.
It is true that there is ambition in the way and wants to be the emperor.
But he never thought that he was going to lure the wolf in
Room.
"The channel knows the general's worries, as long as the Great Yan Country is broken, even if the general can't get half of the territory, it will definitely not be more than Qingzhou Mansion. No matter how strong Great Xia is, they may not be able to hold it if they are close to the city of Qingzhou." Qingping Daoist continued.
"Now is not the time." Xing Daorong shook his head and said.
"The general has the ambition to Lingyun, but he does not have the courage to break the cauldron and sink the boat, sigh, sigh. Which founding brother in history didn't overcome obstacles all the way?" Qingping Daoist shook his head and said.
"It's not that I'm lacking courage, it's that I don't have a plan to maximize benefits." Xing Daorong said.
"If the general rises up, the Great Yan Dynasty will definitely not dare to order all the troops of the country to besiege Qingzhou. Because, they will also worry about the Great Xia Dynasty in the east."
"The Tao has a point." Xing Daorong nodded and said.
"Emperor Jingyang's move is clearly to test your bottom line. If he is persecuting you, why don't you give him a look at it?"
"What the Taoist Patriarch said today is indeed reasonable."
"Then why is the Admiral still hesitating?"
Xing Daorong also knew that it was impossible for the emperor to reconcile with him, and the emperor's move also showed that he did not take the initiative to cause trouble, and when the time came, the emperor would force him to rebel.
"If he makes a move, I don't necessarily have to break the net with him...... We'll need time."
The Tiance Army is strong enough, but Xing Daorong feels that the new class still needs time to polish.
Therefore, the current Xingdao Rong is not the best time to start an incident, so he did not adopt the advice of the Qingping Daoist.
However, he should also take some countermeasures.
Recently, he has not spoken or expressed his position, Emperor
Is the emperor supposed to be a bully for him?
