Chapter 165: The Situation in the South China Sea
"According to the news from the DPRK, Dongchang and Jinyiwei sent a person to secretly investigate us, and it is estimated that the person has arrived." Huang Yinfang spoke slowly.
"Oh, what's his name? To be favored by Mi Yusong must be extraordinary. ”
The young man smacked the melon and fruit in his hand while reading the book, and said without raising his head, and after finishing speaking, he snorted and spit out the husk in his mouth.
At the feet of the two of them, two beautiful maidservants bowed their heads to the ground, carefully cleaning up the peels that the young man had spit out.
"Liu Xin."
Huang Yinfang gently spit out these two words.
The young man suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and his eyes lit up.
"Liu Xin, the one who killed the second prince?
Hahaha, interesting, interesting! ”
Just when Huang Yinfang, the head of the Huang family, was about to continue to say something, a young maid came in outside the door to spread the word.
Huang Yinfang glanced at the young man, who waved his hand, and Huang Yinfang nodded and left the main hall.
The young man continued to look at the book in his hand.
Although he was particularly interested in the topics he had talked about earlier, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
came to the study not far away, where Huang Yinfang's nephew was already waiting for a while.
Seeing his uncle arrive, this man's face immediately showed a hint of unease.
"Uncle, the news of the Duke of Shu is here!"
Looking at her nephew, Huang Yinfang felt a little disgusted and disgusted by the uneasy look on his face.
However, there were no waves on the surface, and his nephew couldn't see Huang Yinfang's thoughts in his heart at all.
And then his nephew told him in detail about the siege of Luoshen Villa by the Duke of Shu.
Syllable!
And after listening to all the narration, Huang Yinfang slapped his palm on the bookcase beside him.
"Shu Guogong is a waste!
He obviously has a great advantage, but he is timid, and it is clear that I have provided him with a lot of help.
It's a pity!
If you can't support the wall, you will never be able to support the wall! ”
Although he heard his uncle scolding Shu Guogong so angrily, he knew in his heart that no matter how much he hated, no matter how angry he scolded, no matter how ugly the scolding was.
His uncle still has his own jealousy of that prince.
After all, it was a hidden dragon entrenched in Sichuan and other places.
It can't even be described as a tiger, it's a real dragon.
In Sichuan and other places, close to the north, real estate and mineral deposits are abundant, so if you compete with armaments and equipment, the entire South China Sea is not the opponent of Sichuan Shu Guogong.
No matter how small the number of troops in the hands of the Duke of Shu is small, it is also a proud soldier who has really been on the battlefield.
Moreover, the Duke of Shu is not inferior to the Duke of Wu and the military genius of the Duke of Qin, and he has his own ideas about training soldiers and the army.
And although the South China Sea and other places have enough soldiers and food, it really can't be said that the combat effectiveness is still not as good as that of the Duke of Shu.
Especially at the level of generals.
It's like two warriors with the same cultivation, even if the cultivation is the same, but because of the different environments, different experiences, different experiences, plus weapons, armor and other different restrictions.
Its combat effectiveness is also very different.
And all the while, he compared himself to the weaker side.
But what he didn't know was that his uncle Huang Yinfang obviously didn't think so.
This wise man who has been wise all his life and has always boasted of being a wise man with a pearl of wisdom.
In fact, from the bottom of my heart, I don't look down on the Duke of Shu at all.
The South is the breadbasket of the whole world.
Mastering the South is equivalent to being invincible!
"We just need to hold on to this land, and under the continuous natural disasters in the future, we will occupy the geographical advantage again!
The double advantage is in me, even if the Duke of Shu did not launch a rebellion from the west, it has no influence on us.
What's more, we have reinforcements from the north. ”
Huang Yinfang is playing with a string of topaz Buddha strings in his hand, which is an ancient artifact that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years!
There is no way to measure the value of this string of Buddhas in terms of money.
"Will those barbarians really do as hard as we might expect?
Haven't they been scared in the last ten years? "Yellowstone Antao.
"A wolf will always be a wolf, but not yet hungry.
When they are so hungry that they can't stand it, when they are so hungry that they can't live, hehe, they are easy to drive. ”
Huang Yinfang kept playing with the Buddha string in his hand, and said lightly at the same time.
"Natural disasters continue, what do you think will be the worst affected place?
Is it me South?
Hehe, the north has long been overwhelmed!
And all they rely on is the materials that are secretly smuggled with the North.
Without these materials, it is equivalent to plunging the entire grassland into a situation from which it will never recover.
And at that time, without us transporting grain north by sea, what could they rely on?
Do their people want to continue to live? Should their so-called golden bloodline continue to continue? ”
"And the smuggling line is right in our hands!" Huang Shi'an suddenly seemed to have opened his mind, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at his uncle.
It's a pity that Huang Yinfang is becoming more and more dissatisfied with her nephew's appearance.
If you still don't complain about his stupidity before.
Then now I am dissatisfied with his flattering appearance.
Flattery is the most hated character of a literati.
As a scholarly family, everything must be under your own control, and everything must be graceful.
Whether it is a strategy or a strategy to kill soldiers, we must not be impatient or impatient, and guard against arrogance and rashness.
And this nephew of his own family, if it weren't for his brother, he died early.
broke his leg, and he was afraid that he would not even have someone to incense his brother in the future, so he always had scruples and did not attack him.
Seeing that this kid was middle-aged, but his face was still a bastard, Huang Yinfang couldn't stand it anymore, and directly snorted coldly:
"Get out!"
Huang Shi'an had no idea why his uncle was so irritable all of a sudden.
But since the uncle spoke, then he could only get out obediently!
Throughout the South China Sea, he has always been not afraid of heaven and earth.
Even he thinks that even if he gives him a prince on a day like this, it doesn't mean anything, and the whole world can only be said to be rich, only in the south.
Natural disasters in the Central Plains are continuous, even if you have monstrous wealth, it will cease to exist after a big flood or a dragon turnover.
Only in the south there were no floods, and no earth dragons turned over.
In addition to the fact that the weather is a little hotter, but there are also ice cubes brought from the south to eliminate, in fact, the days are already a paradise on earth for him.
Once upon a time, his uncle asked him to go north to train in the army.
He didn't want to, even if he went to the imperial capital, he didn't want to.
The reason is that it is too cold in the north and his legs hurt, so when his staff informed him of the failure of the Duke of Shu, he was very frightened.
Because he is Huang Yinfang's confidant, he knows that his uncle and the Duke of Shu have always had a cooperation agreement.
The two sides secretly communicate and cooperate with each other.
Although there is no one glory, one loss.
But the progress on the side of the Duke of Shu will also affect their affairs in the South China Sea.
Therefore, Huang Shi'an panicked and hurried to find his uncle, but judging from his uncle's usual plain temperament and the angry scolding of himself at the end.
It shouldn't be a big deal.
So this boulder fell in his heart.
Seeing his nephew leaving, Huang Yinfang sighed, really a little angry.
Fortunately, his heirs and his own plans have not been neglected so far.
Everything was going in the direction he had imagined.
Huang Yinfang stood on the terrace outside her room and glanced at the north, then at the west, and finally fell in the direction of Xuchang.
"Well, King Xuzhou, what should you do next?
The Duke of Shu has already revealed his blade and is the first person to publicly identify himself, so what about you......
Who can you hide from all these things you've been doing in secret?
The emperor knows, I know, and the Duke of Shu knows.
But you have not been able to provoke it, and although everyone knows about your plan, no one has really found evidence of you.
wants to cause great changes in the world and wants to chase the Central Plains. Shouldn't you show it?
Or do you have to wait until I'm ready to show your true colors, but then you're only worthy of a supporting role.
Only eat ashes behind us!
Competing in the world, the comparison is who is faster and whose stamina is greater!
And in my land of the South China Sea, the grain is already full, and my army is the strongest, when I take the lead, do you really have a chance?
Or is there something else you're hiding? ”
I have to say that as a smart person, as one of the few smart people in the world, Huang Yinfang's brain turned very fast.
In a split second, a myriad of thoughts can run through you.
But he also has a common problem of smart people, which is to think too much and do too little.
At the same time, Xuzhou.
The king of Xuzhou was half-lying on his soft couch in an extremely comfortable position, and beside him was the bald monk.
"Wuzhu, did you say that Huang Yinfang, that old pedant, is now fantasizing about his appearance in the Central Plains again."
The king of Xuzhou County sounded in a slightly joking voice.
"Well, it's quite possible."
Wuzhu took a sip of the fragrant tea in his hand and said casually, and the next moment he was amazed by the tea in his hand.
"This south is indeed a place of outstanding people, and this tea is better than the north."
"The Central Plains is not bad." King Xuzhou said suddenly.
Wuzhu sighed softly, and then said:
"That's a bit of an expectation.
In the future, you can go to the original product to have a product.
In today's situation, all forces are ready to move, but no one wants to be the first bird, do we want to seize the opportunity?
Although it is said that the gun shoots the first bird, the stupid bird flies first. The earliest to come out, although there are more crises, but at the same time, you can get the most opportunities.
Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, this is the most reasonable!
So what are you going to do? ”
Wuzhu took another sip of the fragrant tea in the cup and asked lightly.
The eyes of the king of Xuzhou were calm, there were no waves, and he said lightly:
"Why don't we think about the current situation in the world, maybe we can have some understanding."
"Yes!"
Wuzhu agreed.
Then Wuzhu took the lead in speaking, and there was no sense of superiority and inferiority, but he just spoke on his own.
And the king of Xuzhou did not have any dissatisfaction on his face.
"The situation in the world is actually very clear.
The Duke of Shu used to be better hidden.
But this time he was in a bit of a hurry. ”
It's not that Shu Guogong is in a hurry, but there seems to be a force behind him that is pushing him forward.
This may not be a good thing, but it's definitely not a bad thing. ”
King Xuzhou sat up straight, stretched his body, and spoke at the same time.
"How?" Wuzhu asked with some curiosity, in fact, he had the answer in his heart, but now that it is a discussion, he might as well communicate his ideas.
The king of Xuzhou said lightly:
"The Duke of Shu has always been unprofitable.
Able to make him take the initiative to expose himself.
It can only show that the force behind him is very strong, so much so that he has the illusion that he is invincible in this world.
Let's think about it, he Shu Guogong occupies Sichuan and other places.
Plus not long ago, he did those weird operations at Roselle Villa.
A simple association makes it easy to discover his purpose.
What is Roselle Villa?
It is the largest refining shop in the world that is not owned by the imperial court! ”
If Luoshen Villa hears the evaluation of the king of Xuzhou County at this time, Luoshen Villa will definitely jump to its feet, what is a refining shop?
It is obviously a powerful sect and family power that is the first in the world!
In the mouth of the king of Xuzhou County, it turned into a refining shop in the streets and alleys.
Of course, this is essentially the case.
Wuzhu smiled and nodded in agreement.
I only heard the king of Xuzhou continue:
From this, it is not difficult to judge that the biggest advantage of the Duke of Shu is the strong combat effectiveness of the army. In addition, the fiefdom is rich in mineral deposits.
His Western Army has always been the most well-equipped army in Zhengyang.
Plus a first-class refining shop......
Moreover, there are many mines in Shaanxi, where Luoshen Villa is located, which shows that the Duke of Shu has pressed the treasure on the equipment.
pressed on the strength of the army, plus he himself is a general who is good at fighting.
This choice is actually the most in line with him as a person.
Wuzhu nodded, indicating that he didn't have any objections, and he thought the same way.
So then the king of Xuzhou talked about the South China Sea.
Huang Yinfang of the South China Sea relied on the set of literati.
In the past ten years or even decades, with the vast network of contacts and the group habits of the group of scholars in the south, the entire South China Sea has been woven into a seemingly monolithic piece.
And what cannot be refuted is that the entire South China Sea is indeed a large number of soldiers, and there is plenty of food, and the sustained combat effectiveness is the strongest!
In terms of strength on paper, the South China Sea is definitely the strongest except for the imperial court.
But there is also a problem, this group of readers is stupid to read their brains in the first place.
They put Nanhai Huohuo like that, and they still want to use Nanhai as their base camp, which is actually a bit nonsense.
The people of the land of the South China Sea are the largest among the five major regions in Zhengyang.
The grain is also the most abundant!
At the same time, it is also the place where the whole world suffers the least.
But instead of making the entire South China Sea look like a family of clan people, Huang Yinfang has accumulated a lot of ills.
The whole South China Sea does not know how many people want their clan to die without a place to be buried.
Therefore, although Huang Yinfang of the South China Sea has enough soldiers, he is only useless.
"Hehe, then who does the county king think in the whole world can compete with us and influence our plans?"
"The whole world, the entire Central Plains, and the entire Han people are one, whether it is Shu Guogong or Huang Yingfang, in fact, it is just a little stubborn disease in our body. The real one who has done the most harm to the whole world is actually our head. King Xuzhou sighed.
"So what do you mean...... Royal house? Wuzhu's eyes lit up.
"The surname An has been in the world for more than 400 years, and how much better is the country today than when it was first founded?
The number of people has increased more than tenfold compared to the time when the country was first founded. But the situation of the people of the whole world is even worse than when the country was founded and just settled down from the war.
So if it is said that the surname An has affected the development of the whole world and made the people of the whole world live in misery all the time, then what is the use of this peace of mind? ”
"However, the king of the county, your own surname is An." Wuzhu's eyes were quite surprised.
Hearing this, the King of Xuzhou shook his head bitterly.
"Yes, my own surname is Ann. What kind of face do you have to say such things?
So sometimes I'd rather give up my surname, my identity starts from a reckless beginning, maybe I can still have great ambitions.
Set up a life for the people of the world, seize the imperial power, and control the world!
It's a pity that I was born with the surname Ann. The ambition of the bird. Before he could soar into the sky, he had already died halfway. ”
"Your Highness, don't be presumptuous, you've done a good job."
The title of Wuzhu gradually changed after a passage from the king of Xuzhou.
"You don't need to tell me this little comfort. I know what kind of situation I am in.
Okay, so let's talk a little bit about the practical stuff. ”
After a pause, King Xuzhou took a sip of tea and continued:
"Although we are not prepared to be the first bird, we must not be left behind.
What Huang Yinfang has been doing is preparing everything.
He had been secretly preparing for the first ten years and decades before the South China Sea.
But since the Duke of Shu showed his edge, the South China Sea has also been a little unable to sit still. Lately they have become noticeably more impatient.
That's not a good thing for us.
On the side of the imperial court, a situation has been formed in which the enemy is attacked on the back of the abdomen.
South China Sea, West Shu, Northern Barbarian, East Thief!
The Zhengyang Kingdom has lasted for more than 400 years, and it has never encountered such a predicament.
If we start from the Central Plains again......"
"Something can happen!" Wuzhu answered with a smile.
However, the king of Xuzhou did not have any smile on his face, but a solemn face.
"In today's Zhengyang Imperial Court, Emperor Xuyang will definitely be overturned to the ground. But the whole world will also be torn apart. Southeast, northwest, plus we force together from the middle. Emperor Xuyang is wise, Wu Guogong is possessed by the god of war again, Qin Guogong is brave and invincible, and Mi Yusong dominates the world again......
can't stop this rolling trend!
The entire Zhengyang will definitely fall apart and fall apart, but is this really good for the people?
This would only divide an empire into several small states, and then the small states would fight against each other for years, and eventually a new state would be born.
It's like Zhengyangguo. At the time of the founding of the country, it rose from the flames of war and saved the people of the world. At that time, Zhengyang still occupied the righteousness and the hearts of the people.
But what if we do it now?
Which of the five forces plus the Zhengyang Imperial Court is really in line with the people's will?
Maybe if we fight, there will be a force rising from the people.
Then overthrow us one by one, and eventually establish a completely new dynasty. ”
"That's not impossible." Wuzhu still said with a smile, looking a bit like the Maitreya Buddha enshrined in the temple.
"You can still laugh when you say that." The king of Xuzhou was a little displeased with the other party's expression.
But it's just a little disliked.
Even if the king of Xuzhou said so, Wuzhu still had that smiling appearance.
And there was not the slightest hint of falsification in his smile.
It's like a genuine, heartfelt smile.
"Isn't what is good for the people a good thing?"
Wuzhu asked rhetorically.
The king of Xuzhou smiled dumbly and nodded.
"Okay, sit and talk, it's better to be down-to-earth and do something real.
Let's go, go and meet our brothers. In the next period of time, everyone will be busy, and I don't know when and where we will meet again. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, even if they all end up in the underworld. After all, we can get together.
Anyway, the result is already predestined, so the process might as well let us go on easily. ”
"Yes, even you, a guy who believes in Buddhism and recites scriptures, can't go to the West Heaven Bliss after you die, you can only accompany us to the underworld, what else do we have to complain about?"
"It's not that I can't go to the West Heaven Bliss, but I can't bear you old brothers, so I will accompany you to the underworld with righteousness, maybe I feel bad in the dwelling, and I don't want to stay, I can still fly to the heavens."
"You just brag, I've never seen you brag a few times in my life, this time. I can see you're in a really good mood. ”
"It's nature. After decades of planning, I have changed from a beautiful teenager to the pot-bellied I am now......
Time is the ruthless pig-killing knife. ”
"You're a martial pig, so it's not very auspicious."
"The Buddha said that if you believe, you will have, and if you don't believe, you will not."
"Did the Buddha say that?"
"Who knows, the Buddha didn't say that?"
The two looked at each other and laughed together.
"The Book Saint Festival is about to begin, and the South China Sea should also be in chaos."
"Yes, a good book saint sacrifice is used by them to do these flies and dogs. If the book saint has knowledge under the spring, it is estimated that he will be so angry that he will jump to his feet! ”
"Our people are all in place, this time, we are no longer the spectators, we have waited so long, and we can finally use a little bit of tricks."
"Lord Wang, then the kid you pay attention to, should we help him?"
"Help? No, if it was a real dragon, the shallow waters of the South China Sea would not be able to trap him. It is enough for us to make sure that what we want to achieve is achieved. Actually, this is already a disguised help for him, isn't it? ”
"Yes, yes, the six great masters of the South China Sea, it's time to show their reputation!"
