Chapter 154: The Resurgence of the Alliance, Countermeasures
At the beginning of June, the Great Xia Palace, the Imperial Garden.
Xia Ao walked slowly in the fragrant and colorful flower garden, accompanied by two concubines, Shangguan Wan'er and Gu Ruoyun, on the left and right, and more than ten ministers behind him.
"Your Majesty, according to intelligence, the negotiations on the Five Dynasties Alliance initiated by the Qingqiu Dynasty have reached a critical moment, and the final result is likely to be finalized in the next few days."
The right minister Gao Xi said in a deep voice, with a serious expression.
"Your Majesty, it's time for us to deploy our defenses as soon as possible. Once they have made a covenant, we may lose sight of one if we are not fully prepared. ”
Xia Ao was not in a hurry, and the smile on his face was still the same.
"Rest assured, all countries have their own calculations, especially Daliang and Dachu, these two sides have the heaviest thoughts. The so-called Vaxia Alliance, heh, can't be done. ”
Gao Xi frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have become the number one power in Tiannan now, this is almost the consensus of everyone in Tiannan. ”
"Although the Tomb Diggers' accusations can't convince the other Quartet Dynasties except Qingqiu, they should be able to see the threat of my Great Xia."
"In this case, it is completely reasonable for the five dynasties to join forces and destroy my Great Xia first to cut off the biggest threat......"
"The minister thinks that this matter must not be careless!"
Xia Ao waved his hand and looked back at Yuan Tiangang.
"I can talk to all of you."
"Yes!"
Yuan Tiangang lowered his head, and then smiled at the group of ministers who were looking at him suspiciously.
"There is a captain who has miraculous abilities, and he is currently in a high position in the Great Liang Dynasty, and he can access almost all the secrets of the Great Liang."
"According to his feedback, the Great Liang Dynasty has explored part of the true heritage of the Qingqiu Dynasty, so it is very jealous of Qingqiu, and has raised the threat of the Qingqiu Dynasty to the level of my Great Xia."
"Emperor Daliang has decided to cooperate with the Qingqiu Dynasty's alliance strategy to cut down Xia on the surface, but secretly he has sent people to Dachu and my Daxia respectively, and has other demands."
"On the side of Great Chu, Da Liang wants to persuade the other party to give up the attack on Da Xia, and instead work with Da Liang to attack the David Dynasty in the north and south, and divide and eat David!"
"And on my side of Daxia, Da Liang is ready to persuade Da Chu not to use troops against our dynasty as a gift, and then counterattack the Qingqiu army that attacked our dynasty, and unite our army to defeat the main force of Qingqiu in one fell swoop!"
"As for the Yunbo Dynasty's side, the Great Liang Dynasty has no other arrangements, because they need the Yunbo Dynasty to contain some of our dynasty's forces."
"In this way, all parties can maintain a limited balance, and the Great Liang Dynasty can also reap the maximum benefits from it!"
After listening to Yuan Tiangang's explanation, most of the people in the audience showed surprise.
They didn't expect that the Great Liang Dynasty would have such a deep plan.
However, this is obviously good news for Daxia.
After leaving more than ten breaths of time for everyone to digest, Xia Ao nodded towards Zhao Gao again.
"Zhao Zhangdian, let's talk about the situation over there in Da Chu."
"Yes!"
Zhao Gao bowed his head respectfully, and then turned sideways and smiled gently at the ministers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the report, the Great Chu Dynasty has long had the intention of forming an alliance with our dynasty, because they want to use my Great Xia to contend with and contain the Great Liang, Qingqiu, and Yunbo Dynasty, so that they can concentrate their forces on annexing the David Dynasty."
"This strategy is of great significance to Great Chu, but Chu Lixuan, the king of Great Chu Xiu, has always harbored hatred and hostility towards my Great Xia, and has always strongly opposed the alliance. Even if the Empress Dowager of Great Chu agreed with this strategy, considering Chu Lixuan's prestige in the Great Chu army, she never dared to turn her face. ”
"Now, Great Chu has been vaguely divided into two factions, and there is also a big rift between the Empress Dowager Chu and King Xiu, but they are barely maintained."
"Judging from the general trend, King Xiu's faction has fallen behind, and the Empress Dowager Chu also took advantage of the situation to replace a group of generals without a trace, which further weakened King Xiu's power and made King Xiu in a dilemma."
"But if the people of Daliang arrive in Dachu and tell their plots, there is a chance that Chu Lixuan, the king of Xiu, will get off the donkey down the slope. After all, if he does this, he doesn't need to form a direct alliance with my Great Xia, and his face can be saved. ”
"And if he continues to make trouble, although no one can please him, he is obviously the one who suffers the most."
After listening to Zhao Gao's introduction to Da Chu, smiles appeared on everyone's faces one after another.
Although with the background and strength of Great Xia, even if the five dynasties come together, they will not be afraid.
However, at the same time, there is an all-out war on the five fronts, which is too high for the supply system, intelligence support, personnel allocation, situation control, strategic changes and other aspects, and it is difficult to ensure that there will be no problems.
Therefore, the best situation is to divide and break, or to sit on the sidelines and reduce the number of opponents.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's talk about it, in the face of such a situation, how should I make a decision in Great Xia? What kind of role do you want to play? ”
Xia Ao stopped, turned to look at the ministers and asked.
"Your Majesty, if Da Liang really plans to besiege the Qingqiu army with my Great Xia, and the Great Chu Dynasty also chooses to send troops to David, then we might as well make a plan and weaken the strength of the Qingqiu Dynasty first, and then take the Yunbo Dynasty as the main target and take Yunbo first?"
Right Prime Minister Li Si was the first to speak and said his suggestion.
Immediately afterwards, Gao Xi, Zhang Yi, Li Bing, Xiao Hongyuan and others echoed and expressed the same meaning.
Xia Ao nodded noncommittally, and did not decide directly, but looked at Guo Jia and Xun Yu.
"What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that in this battle, we can not get involved, it is better not to get involved directly."
Xun Yu glanced at Guo Jia and took the lead in speaking.
Hearing this, Li Si, Gao Xi and the others couldn't help but be stunned, and then frowned slightly, and looked at Xun Yu in confusion.
Xia Ao's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked with a smile, "Oh? What did Xun Aiqing say? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that my first task at present in Great Xia is to first lay a good foundation for the unification of Tiannan, calm the interior, and cultivate enough political talents."
"In addition, my Great Xia is currently in a period of vigorous development, and every time it develops steadily, the foundation and strength of my Great Xia will be able to rise a little."
"Therefore, the minister thinks that the Dajin Dynasty should be completely incorporated into my Daxia first, and the hidden danger of instability in the rear should be solved."
"After that, according to the situation, you can first take the Great Chu Dynasty or the Yunbo Dynasty, and completely connect the north and the east or west!"
"In this way, we only need to face the enemy in two directions, and the pressure on all sides will be greatly reduced, and it will be difficult for the enemy to sabotage from the rear."
After listening to Xun Yu's explanation, everyone's eyes lit up, revealing a thoughtful look.
Xia Ao bowed slightly, and a look of approval flashed in his eyes.
After that, Xia Ao looked at Guo Jia again.
"Guo Aiqing, what do you mean?"
"Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Xun Shangshu's proposal."
Guo Jia smiled at Xun Yu and expressed clear support.
"The minister suggested that you can pretend to agree to the request of the Great Liang, and at the same time secretly reveal the matter to the Qingqiu Dynasty."
"In this way, the five-party alliance, which is already at odds with each other and has its own evil intentions, will collapse and completely collapse."
"The minister thinks that after the Qingqiu Dynasty gets this information, most of them will first concentrate on the elite to swallow the Yunbo Dynasty in the shortest possible time, and at the same time strike at the Great Liang Dynasty."
"If this is the case, none of the Five Dynasties will really attack my Great Xia! Taking advantage of this opportunity, my Great Xia can safely and completely annex Dajin. ”
"In addition, after the situation changes, it is very likely that the Qingqiu Dynasty will send someone to talk secretly with my Great Xia, with the proposal of first destroying the fish and shrimp and then competing with the dragon and tiger, so as to facilitate the two sides to reach a tacit understanding of attack and defense."
"At that time, my Great Xia can solve Da Chu first. And if the Qingqiu Dynasty swallows Yunbo and destroys Daliang, then the enemy of my Great Xia will only be on the Qingqiu side. ”
"If the battle situation evolves to this point, then my victory in Great Xia will be completely locked!"
"Of course, even if Da Liang doesn't take the initiative to send someone here, I, Da Xia, can take the initiative to put forward this proposal. The minister believed that the Qingqiu Dynasty would not refuse. ”
After listening to Guo Jia's overall strategy, the eyes of the people in the audience were all bright, and their eyes showed admiration.
No wonder His Majesty attaches great importance to this military secretary, it turns out that there is really an unpredictable plan of ghosts and gods!
Although this strategy sounds simple, if they think about it, they may not come up with it.
It didn't cost a single soldier, not a single gold or silver, but it directly broke the dangerous situation, and even eliminated the possibility of any enemy army and the Great Xia army fighting each other, making the five dynasties all have civil strife and bite each other.
How can you not be so impressed?
"This can be described as a plan of gods and ghosts. Great goodness! ”
Xia Ao stroked his palms and admired, and Long Yan was happy.
"Good! Then take Guo Shangshu's strategy as the backbone, and all ministries and departments should use this as the basis to paint the branches, stems and leaves, and lay a solid foundation for my Great Xia to unify Tiannan! ”
"Do your Majesty's will!"
The ministers looked solemn and respectfully clasped their fists in response.
Xia Ao bowed slightly, turned around and continued to enjoy the flowers, and at the same time changed the topic.
"Daikin's side, there hasn't been any more trouble, has it?"
"Back to Your Majesty, since the conspiracy of Da Liang, Da Chu, and Qingqiu was shattered one after another, and most of their minions were strangled, Dajin's side has stopped, and there is no other chaos in the near future."
Yuan Tiangang responded loudly.
"That'll be fine."
Xia Ao nodded in satisfaction, and after thinking for a while, he began to order.
"Let Shi Yao and Tao Yushu speed up their actions against Wang Ming and others, if they are still vacillating and unwilling to make a choice, then they will be killed and replaced by some obedient people."
"In addition, all ministries and departments should be prepared to annex Daikin and stabilize its situation in the shortest possible time."
"Yes!"
After walking forward for a while, Xia Ao walked into the pavilion where the meal had been prepared and beckoned Xun Yu to him.
"Xun Aiqing, how is the 'Wenyuan Pavilion' plan going?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Wenyuan Pavilion is currently on the right track, but there is still a lot of work to be done to lay the foundation for governing the entire Tiannan."
Xun Yu said respectfully, with a look of shame on his face.
"It doesn't matter, after all, there are only a limited number of talents in the world, and it is not so easy to discover them."
Xia Ao nodded in understanding, and after thinking for a while, he made a decision.
"In this way, I will let the bad people and the net cooperate with you to provide you with information about some talents in other dynasties, and you can dig deeper into it."
"This step is also necessary, after all, relying on the talents in my Great Xia territory alone is obviously not enough. In addition, the ascension of local talents is also of great significance for the rapid stabilization of the situation and people's hearts. ”
"Your Majesty's words are very true, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xun Yu's face showed joy and hurriedly thanked him.
Xia Ao waved his hand and beckoned everyone to sit down.
"Okay, the state affairs are over, all the ministers are seated, drink with me, and enjoy the strange flowers together!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
