Chapter 370
Now there are two pillars of ten thousand families, one is the Wan people who are about to become a master, and this one is due, so it is reasonable to come down. The other is Wan Guifei in the palace, who should have come down a long time ago, but because the new king is a queen, he has been living in the palace.
But when they gathered here to talk about when the Wan family would fall, everyone's eyes were attracted by a group of people.
It's not that everyone's eyes are synchronized, but the identity of this group of people is very special, the minions of the Son of Heaven, Xuanniaowei. In the entire Western Qin, it was like the existence of the Living Yama King, but now this group of Living Yama Kings actually appeared near the Wanjia Mansion.
"I haven't heard that Lord Wan has sinned against the king, and Concubine Wan is also very safe in the harem now, what is this Xuanniao Wei doing here?" said a young brother sitting on top of a restaurant opposite Wanfu, looking at the movement outside the window.
"Who knows? Hasn't Lord Wan been playing some innovation or change recently? Maybe he has touched the king's scales, and now he is here to arrest and ask for guilt, and it won't be long before the Wan family falls?" said another boy with great disdain.
These sons and brothers are idlers from various families, and they are used to doing nothing on weekdays, and the only fun is Kan Dashan. Or it's just going around all over the place, looking for some happy fun, such as the Xuanniao Guard, the forbidden army, or the commander of the capital who has captured whoever and whom.
However, they are also interested in this time, after all, Wanjia can be said to be a small number of existences in the entire Western Qin that can cover the sky with one hand. The fall of this behemoth is not a small splash. Keeping an eye on Wanfu is not something they want to do, but the task given to them by the family behind them, anyway, it is out to drink flower wine, where to drink is different, if you can still collect some information at the gate of Wanfu, wouldn't it be wonderful.
Soon, a son-in-law knocked on the son-in-law who was about to speak with a folding fan and said, "I see that your eyes are blind, don't you see those people in the middle of the Xuanniaowei? That is the lord of Qing, the king's own sister, and the daughter of Wanfu." ”
"Huh?" the boy immediately stood up, and then the expression on his face changed instantly, "How is it possible, why is she wearing most of the same clothes?"
All the sons looked at the young man who said this, with incredulity on their faces.
However, many fox friends also know that this will never lie, after all, this child's father is the left attendant of the court's Ministry of Rites, and it is impossible to admit mistakes in terms of etiquette, especially in terms of clothes.
But hasn't the Xuanniaowei always been the core of the empire? Why would Ying Xiaoyue allow Wanqin to interfere? Isn't she worried about her eldest sister seizing power? After all, the Xuanniaowei is the most elite existence in the entire Western Qin, even if the Guanglin army is stronger, but the number is a little small.
Xianyang's Xuanniao Guard is estimated to be about 2,000, and if these people are placed on the battlefield, it is difficult to make any achievements. But if it is put on such things as forcing the palace to seize power, I am afraid that the more than 5,000 forbidden troops in this Xianyang Palace may not be opponents. If these people rushed into the palace and changed the carpet, it would only be a snap of a finger.
The reason why he handed over this power to this sister Wang is probably because of the new king's absolute trust in his sister.
"It seems that many people have looked away before, and Ying Xiaoyue not only did not mean to reject Wanjia, but even let Wan Qin get involved in the core area. A young man said with a wry smile, "It's just that something may be going to happen." ”
"What's wrong?" asked another son, "At most, some of the family's plans for Wanjia are going to be canceled." ”
"If only things were really that simple, you didn't think that when Wanjia was in prison before, Wanqin didn't appear. Now that it is a high-profile appearance at the door of Wan's house, does this matter mean anything?"
It means that something big is about to happen in Xiqin. A boy with a hint of bookish air on his body said, "Originally, Ying Xiaoyue was going to play balance and let those people behind her jump out one by one, but now she doesn't have this time, she needs someone to help her stabilize the situation." The purpose, of course, is to meet the next shock. ”
Originally, a few sons wanted to scold this person for being disrespectful, after all, the name of the king today is not something that anyone can call out. But when they saw this person, everyone shut up, because this person really has this qualification, Beiyan Proton - Murong Zijin.
"Murong Shizi, I am only below, I don't know when His Royal Highness will return to Beijing, and I am not welcome. Fang Cai was also in a cold sweat on his forehead at this time.
He has now scolded his father half to death, is this old immortal ready to kill himself? I had known that Murong Zijin would appear in Xianyang City, and he would not have come out to drink flower wine with his fox friends and dogs.
If he was caught by Murong Zijin and discovered the essence of his straw bale, then his reputation would probably stink in the entire Shilin. Moreover, as the son of the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he would appear in a place where etiquette and music collapsed now, and no matter how he thought about it, he would be ruthlessly involved by those colleagues of his father.
"You don't need to be so respectful, it turns out to be the son of Lord Wan. Murong Zijin smiled, he still had some impressions of this so-called Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites. Then he said, "I and Master Wan also have a lot to talk about in calligraphy......
After all, the identity of this guy Bai Yan was arranged by Zuo Shilang in this Ministry of Rites, and it cost a lot of money. Although it is said that he spends a lot of money, but this guy is also reliable, at least he didn't make any mistakes for him, and now Bai Yan's identity is also very comfortable, if he can, Murong Zijin doesn't mind doing business with this Lord Wan a few more times.
Money is nothing to Beiyan at all. There are several overseas silver mines on the sea north of Beiyan, which is also the reason why Beiyan has been able to persist in the bitter cold land for so long and still develop and grow. Because Beiyan has used this money to develop maritime trade, it is impossible to cut off the supply of grain and grass to Beiyan by land, and the sea route cannot be completely cut off. Now the silver earned by the sea trade alone is enough for the development of Beiyan, and the big deal is to restart those silver mines.
What Murong Zijin wants to do now is to quickly install those forces under his command into the territory of Western Qin, to be honest, the current situation in Western Qin makes him very uncomfortable. After all, the only people he can rely on now are those spies arranged by his father, and these spies are good at probing business information, and slightly more rigorous information cannot be touched at all.
And these spies don't seem to have the intention of hiding their identities at all, and they seem to be hanging their identity as a signboard on themselves. It was impossible to expect these people to find out the confidential information of Western Qin, and they were bombarded and killed without even entering the gates of those secret organs.
But it's no wonder that these people are only tasked with finding out business news.
The identity of Beiyan merchants is enough to provide them with a lot of convenience, and many times, business information is sent to their doors. Timeliness and convenience are much stronger than collecting your own hidden identity.
But this kind of intelligence network is not what Murong Zijin needs, what he needs is the kind of intelligence department that every policy and every step of the military operation of Western Qin will be sent to his case three days before it is launched. Although it is extremely difficult to create such an intelligence unit, the temptation to succeed is even greater.
Before that, it is now necessary to cultivate a group of loyal dead soldiers, and fortunately there are a group of such people under him, which is really not good, and he can still drink his third brother to borrow, and there are not many such dead soldiers in the hands of the third brother. And because he left, there should be no suspense for the third brother to fight for the reserve now, and there is no need for such a thing as a dead man, so it is better to lend it to himself.
The next question is to let these people legally enter Western Qin and have another identity.
Xiqin implements the armor protection system here, and almost every village and town, the villagers know each other. After all, if anyone is a traitor, then it is themselves who will be affected, and in this case, things that are almost the size of sesame mung beans will be passed around in a short period of time.
It's hard to fit a stranger in a place like this, let alone hundreds.
Bai Yan's identity is to get rid of this Lord Zuo Lang of the Ministry of Rites, and the original identity of this Bai Yan is a young man who has left his hometown. It's just that this young man met a bandit on the way to Xianyang and disappeared, and eighty percent of them died. His parents were all dead within three years of his disappearance, and there are few people who can prove his identity.
After that, Lord Fang simply changed Bai Yan to Bai Yan who was seriously injured by the bandits, and was rescued by the mountain people, who also died two years after saving Bai Yan. The only thing that can prove Bai Yan is the file that is now in stock, and there is no living person certificate.
This kind of identity is needed by many forces, so some officials in Western Qin will keep one or two copies of it, intentionally or unintentionally. And this Lord Fang, unfortunately, is a relatively poor person, and has even intervened in the entire Xianyang City and the surrounding identity buying and selling market, just for a little extra money.
For this kind of greedy person, Murong Zijin is quite happy, not afraid that you are not greedy for money, but afraid that you have no desires and no desires, as long as you are greedy for money, then I can feed you. Of course, the most important point is that this Lord Fang's work can be said to be leakless, at least, he does not have any evidence to point out that he is the one who forged Bai Yan's identity. "You Murong Shizi, I'm done with my business, and now I'm going to leave first. In the future, I will return to the Seimaki Pavilion to pay a visit. "It's already cowardly.
Although the other party said that it was a proton, he was also a prince, although he was a prince of another country. But you can't treat others as non-threatening cats. After all, the prince who was the most favored by the Northern Yan Emperor, this matter was not a joke! If he really provoked this person, at least he would pull his father down from the position he was sitting on, and there would be no problem at all.
"Then I'll wait for Fang Gongzi's greetings. Murong Zijin said with a smile.
At this time, my heart was half cold, what was I doing? Is this Prince Murong Zijin sick? Is this the rhythm of staring at himself? There are so many people here, if he doesn't stare at himself, is he a psychopath!
The other party has already talked about his father, you know, no matter what dynasty, colluding with foreign ministers is a big crime. Even if it's just a prince sent over as a proton on the other side, no, it seems that this result is only more serious......
However, he also has his own plans in his heart, and now this situation is no longer something he can change. Murong Zijin said that he was waiting for his own visit, which was tantamount to acquiescing to the fact that he must visit him by himself, this matter, it would be a headache to think about it, so let his father make a move to meet him.
At this time, the other gentlemen are also at least half cowardly, and with such a big guy here, it is estimated that this party and wine will not be drunk.
"His Royal Highness the Prince wants to find Lord Wan to buy an identity?" Bai Yan said with some concern.
"Yes. Murong Zijin did not shy away from admitting it.
"But Your Highness, all the people you want to install are dead soldiers, all secret agents. If you do this, it is not equivalent to handing over all the intelligence networks of Beiyan in the future to the other party, this Zuo Shilang only needs to move his fingers, which is a great achievement. Bai Yan was extremely worried, "Moreover, with Lord Fang's personality, everything is leaky." ”
"He does things without leaks, but he has a son who specializes in leaking water, doesn't he?" Murong Zijin shrugged, "He doesn't have that chance." ”
At this time, Wan Qin also entered the mansion of the Wan family, which is also the place where she once grew up, and she is still relatively familiar with this place, so she quickly found the place she was going to.
As for the descendants of the Wan family, at this time, they all dare not move in clay sculpture and wood carving, and those who know Wan Qin are naturally extremely in awe, and those who don't know Wan Qin look at the team of Xuanniao Guards behind her, and their first reaction is that Wanfu is going to suffer, and a catastrophe is coming, where do you dare to say anything.
"See Lord Qing. At this moment, a guard came out of the inner courtyard, "The master asked me to take you to the study." ”
"I'm sorry Uncle Biao. Wan Qin smiled and said to the Xuanniao Wei behind him, "You stay here, and I'll come back when I go." ”
All the Xuanniao guards instantly stood up straight, motionless, even straighter than the forbidden army was standing. Uncle Biao also gasped, when he was young, he was also mixed in the forbidden army, so he could see at a glance how strong the team of people in front of him was, at least seven people were existences that he couldn't deal with, and fortunately, these people were the subordinates of the eldest lady, and the eldest lady was not the enemy of Wanfu.
"Liu Fu, take all the military masters to the side hall to rest. Uncle Biao said immediately.
Although Wan Qin said that he asked these people to stay put, Uncle Biao is well aware of the truth that the king of Hades is easy to see and difficult to deal with. If any of these people feel that they have been neglected today, they will find trouble in Wanfu in the future, as long as there is one, Wanfu will have chickens and dogs.
Of course, he also thought too much, after all, none of the Xuanyao Guards dared to trouble the three Dutong families.
"Where is my grandfather?" Wan Qin also had no objection to Uncle Biao's arrangement. It's okay to indulge your subordinates once in a while, and this is your own home, so you don't dare to make any big noise.
"Master is in the study now, do you need me to take you to see him?" asked Uncle Biao.
If it's someone else, then you must bring, to be precise, monitor these people to see the master. After all, this is a matter of etiquette, and the safety of the master is also an important issue, but Wan Qin is different, if she wants the master's life, Wan Fu can't say anything, and this is also Wan Qin's home.
"No, I'm familiar with this place. After Wan Qin finished speaking, he walked directly in the direction of the study, even if he didn't come back for a while, he still knew the road.
Wan Qin directly found his grandfather, Wan Chongshan. That is, the current Prime Minister, but at this time, Wan Chongshan has a sad face.
Her granddaughter still really gave herself a big problem, and many things and problems were not something that the current Xiqin could solve for a while. But this granddaughter wants to solve it immediately, as if she is preparing to eat fat in particular.
"Come in, you're already at the door, and you're not coming in yet. Wan Chongshan exhaled a turbid breath.
For his granddaughter, not the one who looks, he knows what he is doing. The capital of Xuanniaowei, this Western Qin is known as one of the living Hell kings who are sad and worried. The reason why I know is because a few unsuccessful children in the family got into trouble, and they were finally caught by Xuanniaowei, and finally sent back by their granddaughter.
"Grandpa, is this a headache about tax reform?" Wan Qin chuckled.
"Don't laugh, if it weren't for the fact that you didn't know what you were playing, would I be so worried that my hair would turn white?" Wan Chongshan snorted coldly, "Tax reform or something, it's all a trick, what is your real purpose?"
"How did Grandpa see it?" Wan Qin was a little surprised. Just like Wan Chongshan said, this so-called innovation and the proposed change are a smoke bomb, in order to get the news from the major families in the court and prepare for the impact.
"These things, as long as you have a heart, shouldn't be too difficult to guess. Wan Chongshan said with a smile, "You are still a little too tender, or rather, you still underestimate us who have been crawling on the court for many years." But don't worry this time, there are probably not many people who have guessed your intentions, and now they are busy preparing for innovation, and as for those who guessed, they are not sure, are they?"
Wan Qin breathed a sigh of relief, but then she was a little lucky, and fortunately she came to her grandfather's side today. Otherwise, the affairs of the demon city are likely to be exposed in advance.
However, she also wanted to ask her own question now, "Then grandpa, if we want to win in Dakong Mountain, we must build a demon city......"
"Then let's build it. Wan Chongshan said indifferently. It seems that it is easier to build a demon city than to build a city, but it seems to be the case, after all, it seems that the establishment of a demon city does not need to consider the requisition of people, and there is no need to consider the problem of grain and grass. In terms of construction, those demon tribes are the best laborers, and even sometimes, they are even more industrious than the most industrious craftsmen of the human race.
"But ......"
Wan Chongshan put down the pen in his hand, "Your family of three children is this character, don't you need an affirmation? Before coming to me, weren't you ready to agree to build a demon city?"
Wan Qin was a little stunned, but if she thought about it carefully, it seemed that these people in her own family were really this kind of awkward character. And before I came here, I also wanted to ask my grandfather about the establishment of the demon city. Instead of asking his grandfather, is it possible to build a demon city......
Although there is a little disrespect for the elderly, there should be no big problem. After all, my grandfather seems to be used to being like this.
"The establishment of the demon city is to deal with those existences in the Great Empty Mountain, I didn't expect that Xue Tianhan's ability was so great that he could subdue the demon clan in the Great Empty Mountain. Wan Chongshan said with a smile, "You don't need to look at me with that kind of wary look, the old man has drafted a lot of documents anyway." I have heard about the transfer of Yu Dingwei and the Longcheng Army, and the matter of Dakong Mountain was also told to me by the first king. These two armies were dispatched, plus the matter involved Guiling County, and the two departments did not appear on the battlefield against the Southern Tang Dynasty, so the place is self-evident. In addition, such a big thing as establishing a demon city, if it is not brought up by a cat or a dog, you will accept it, there are only two people in the entire Guiling County, one is the captain of Langya, and the other is the nowhere of the snow and the cold. ”
Wan Qin felt like a prey in a spider's web, and his grandfather was the big spider at the core.
Obviously, all the information is very insignificant, and the deployment of the Long Cheng Army and Yu Dingwei can be said to be a response to the crisis in the Southern Tang Dynasty. Xue Tianhan's nowhere to be found, it can also be said that he went on a secret mission. There are only two flaws in this, one is that he decided to establish a demon city, and the other is that the first king knew about Dakong Mountain and told his grandfather, but it was these two things, Wan Chongshan actually pushed the whole thing to the show.
"Grandpa, what should I do now?" Although he didn't want to admit it, Wan Qin still decided to give in first. It's really super tiring to deal with such an old monster.
"The establishment of the Demon City is nothing more than an internal matter of our Xiqin, and whoever wants to meddle is not justified. As for the Zhongzhou Zhonghan you are worried about, it is not a problem at all, the Zhonghan side claims to be the hegemon of the Central Plains, and will not make a move against a small border country like us, of course, more because the Zhongzhou may not be willing to take advantage of it. As long as the Zhonghan side doesn't speak, there will be no change on the Zhongzhou side, after all, if he moves here, the Zhonghan stabs him in the back, and the position of the Zhonglu overlord doesn't know whose hands it is. ”
"But what if those families borrow the power of neighboring dynasties?" This matter is what Xue Tianhan is most worried about.
There are so many families in Western Qin, the foundation is not very clean, some are simply branches of other dynasty families, and some are families with nepotism in neighboring dynasties, in short, this family is intertwined, it is possible to dispose of a family, but there must be a valid reason, and it cannot be cut to the roots.
"You don't have to worry about this at all, or, you're ready, aren't you? Don't tell me, those old foxes in the court, you don't have any black material in your hands, I'm afraid that the old man has a lot of black material in your hands. Wan Chongshan said with a smile, "Usually I didn't force them, but at the critical time, I was tough and beat them directly to the point that I couldn't speak, wouldn't it be better?"
For the first time, Wan Qin felt that his grandfather was a devil, or rather, a complete Erwuzai, who was simply a traitor among the courtiers, a big traitor. However, fortunately, there are also such traitors, so their royal family can exist for a long time.
"That's right, it's just that I'm still a little worried...... Wan Qin didn't know what he was worried about, but he was worried, and he always felt that this time things shouldn't be so peaceful.
"Worried that the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Western Song Dynasty are preparing to launch an attack on us? You think too much, the benefits gained by the Western Song Dynasty in the past few years of sea trade, plus our Western Qin has not attacked them all the year round, and their armies basically have no combat effectiveness. As for Nantang, can the situation be a little worse now?"
Although Wan Qin didn't want to admit what his grandfather said, the facts themselves are facts and cannot be refuted. So, now that all the worries about the demon city have disappeared, the next thing to do is to go all out to promote the demon city, at least, not to dream too much at night.
This is Wan Qin's plan, to cook the raw rice into rice in the fastest time, and even if the others want to say something, it will only be too late.
Wan Chongshan looked at his granddaughter who left confidently and sighed, still immature. Before these things were investigated, he rushed forward with a roar, and he didn't want to think about how Zhongzhou and Zhonghan failed back then. Those who hide in the shadows and maintain humane orthodoxy are not so easy to deal with. But before that, as an elder, I should also help them remove obstacles.
Although it is said that with the strength of the Wan family, it is necessary to confront these secret supervisors head-on, but if it is just a concealment, with the strength of the Wan family, there should be no problem.
directly placed a title deed on the table, and the numbers on it directly made Wan Qin fall silent.
"This land is the land promised by the royal family when your mother married into the royal family, but our Wanjia family had limited strength before and was not developed, and now it is directly given to you, I believe your mother should not object. Wan Chongshan said with a smile, "This is not a transportation artery, nor is it a place where soldiers must fight, and there is no problem at all in promising to the demon clan." And also in Hexi Road, the location is perfect. ”
Wan Qin didn't know what to say, she just felt that her eyes were a little moist, but in the end, she still didn't cry, because she was the capital of Xuanniaowei and a member of the behind-the-scenes decision-making team of Western Qin, so she shouldn't be confused and confused in her heart.
Although this land belongs to his mother, it should be promised to the Wan family by the royal family, and the grandfather kept it, maybe he promised some conditions in the Wan family. Now it's for himself, it can only be said that he is scheming...... It is estimated that it is also for his mother to have a decent identity when she is kicked out of the palace in the future.
And at this time, Tiannan Pass
"There's another Xiongguan behind, really, when you get here, won't you let you retreat?" Qin Shuang was a little angry.
After all, he was still going to use a Tiannan Pass to pit more soldiers in the Southern Tang Dynasty, after all, for decades, only Li Ye, a fool on the Southern Tang side, was constantly sending military merits to his side. After this time, it was almost impossible to kill the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty so simply.
But this kind of cheap thing was completely banned by a piece of paper in Xianyang.
Although he said that his father didn't say it explicitly, he could interfere with his father's judgment and the old man's trust in him, and he could think of what he did with his ass, and it was nothing more than the king who was sitting on the throne now?
"Forget it, since the woman said she wouldn't retreat, she wouldn't retreat. Qin Shuang snorted coldly.
"Little Miss, you won't be ready to give up Tiannan Pass. Wang Meng was a little surprised. Giving up Tianfeng Pass in the case of absolute superiority before was already challenging the lower limit of his IQ. But what's the matter with this little lady herself? Not only Tianfeng Pass, but even the current Tiannan Pass has to be abandoned? Are you really ready to fight to the death with the other party in Nantian Pass?
And even if the decisive battle is successful, the Southern Tang Dynasty after recapturing the two Xiongguan can make the war on the east side of the Western Qin difficult to advance in the next twenty years.
"Why not? There are many routes to attack Western Qin, by sea, or by Changji, why do you have to choose to fight a tough battle with the other party in Guiling. Qin Shuang fought a Hache, "What if the Southern Tang Dynasty takes back the three Xiongguans? In this battle, the century-old national fortune is basically exhausted, and we can completely detour and destroy the country at that time." ”
Wang Meng didn't know what to say, after all, the other side was still thinking about how to fight, and the ancestor on his side was already thinking about how to steal the house. But it seems to make some sense, if it is on the side of Guiling County, the army of the Southern Tang Dynasty will be wiped out and the ground will be almost polished, and it is really possible to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty.
After all, as a border guard, he is very aware of the combat effectiveness of the Southern Tang army, and there is basically not much left of the combat effectiveness of these armies. Except for a few elites who can fight, the others are all Xiangyong Hunting Fast, and even saying that Xiangyong Hunting Fast is praising them, they are farmers pulled up from the farmland with a little training, such a Southern Tang Dynasty is not at all the Southern Tang Dynasty that had just founded the country and dared to defeat the 20,000 Han Chishui Army with 3,000 cavalry.
"It's just that the king will not agree to this decision. Wang Meng was a little helpless, "This war is a matter of face, and the king will not allow us to let go of Xiqin's face." Moreover, we operate in the six cities outside the Guanwai......"
"The six cities outside the Guanxi are completely the trade between the Western Qin and the Southern Tang Dynasty, do you think that after this battle, the merchants of the Southern Tang Dynasty will continue to do business with us? Even if the merchants seek profits, they are willing, will the government behind them allow it? Therefore, this battle, whether it is victory or defeat, the six cities outside the Guanwai have all been abolished. The corners of Qin Shuang's mouth hooked up into a smile.
I am quite concerned about the border trade business of the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Western Qin, and I know how much silver flows there every year. It is estimated that only Li Ye, who has a hot brain, has a clear brain, and now he has a hot brain to attack Western Qin, and if he succeeds, he will take away useless land, and he still needs to increase money and food to maintain it.
If the war is lost, then it will be a futile loss of national strength, and it will inevitably attract verbal criticism from all sides.
Then there is the sequelae after that, this sequelae is extremely fatal, and it can even be said that it is determined that Li Ye is destined to be unable to ascend to the throne of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the future. The reason is very simple, Li Ye has already given the family a complete sin.
It's ridiculous to be honest, the dynasty is above the family. But who is the next ruler of each dynasty is a game of various families within the dynasty. Behind every king, there is an indispensable maintenance and promotion of one or two families.
There are a lot of families in the border trade with such a big piece of profit cake, and if it is lost like this, how many people don't know the sin. These families won't say anything on the surface, but when the Southern Tang Dynasty is elected, I'm afraid that some of them will cry.
"So ......"
"The six cities outside the Guanxi are now tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon them, originally I just wanted to use the six cities outside the Guanwai to wear out a large part of the national strength of the Southern Tang Dynasty. And now that Tianfeng City wants to be re-established, what Nantang has to pay is not just troops, after all, the foundation has been blown up by us, and if there is no people to build it, it will be like a dangerous building. Qin Shuang said with a smile, "It's a pity that such a large area of land is not suitable for planting, otherwise it would be perfect for Gui Ling to have a place where grain and grass can be produced." ”
Wang Meng just wants to escape for his life at this time, my God, what is this master thinking about?
Captain Langya commanded many soldiers and horses in Guiling County, which was already an extrajudicial favor to the current King of Qin, after all, if there was no grain and grass, even if there was a loyal army, it would be useless. But now, his master actually wants to get a granary near Guiling County, which is full of grain, grass and soldiers, is this preparing for rebellion?
Of course, Wang Meng didn't dare to say or ask.
"Okay, don't think about it, I just hope that the next time I face the Southern Tang Dynasty, the turnover of grain and grass can be accelerated a little faster. By the way, is there any news from the loft?"
The pigeon loft was originally a tool used by the warbler to collect and transmit intelligence, but because several capable generals around him had already been sent out, the pigeon loft was temporarily handed over to Wang Meng, a peripheral personnel to manage. Anyway, most of the news, as the former deputy marshal of the army, the actual controller of the army, also has the right to know.
The truly confidential information is sent to him by a specialist, so there is no need to worry about Wang Meng really getting any unfavorable information that is unfavorable to himself.
"I have already received the news that Lantian County, Shangliang County, and Xinfeng County in the Southern Tang Dynasty have all sent 100,000 troops, and these 300,000 soldiers and horses are all drawn from the forbidden army of the Southern Tang Dynasty. There is also the Southern Tang Dynasty that transferred 600,000 troops from the west, 300,000 troops in turn, and a total of 900,000 troops went west. It is known as a million male divisions, but from them all the way to absorb troops, the gap of 100,000 is not very difficult, anyway, when the time comes, this Tiannan Pass will really be a million Chen soldiers. Wang Meng said here, but he was also a little lacking in courage.
Million, even if it is a million pigs, it will take a while to kill, not to mention, these million are all soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
The troops that Guiling County can come up with are really shabby, and now it is estimated that they can barely be used in a good location.
"Is it more than a million? The total strength of Nantang should be more than that. Qin Shuang touched his chin, "Throwing out the 300,000 defenders on the east and south sides and the 300,000 coastal defense troops on the north side, the Southern Tang should still have more than 400,000 troops." ”
At this point, even the dark warbler does not have a fixed number, after all, there is no way to do this statistics. However, someone helped them do a good job, that is, the old king of the Southern Tang Dynasty, this old man is also a master of great joy. When I was last year, I said directly at the cocktail party that there were three million soldiers in the Southern Tang Dynasty, so who is the enemy in the world?
At that time, that is, after drinking and joking, the monarchs of the Middle Han Dynasty and the Middle Zhou Dynasty also smiled when they heard it, and did not take it to heart.
However, this news was also noticed by Qin Shuang, since this old man said that there were three million soldiers, then even if it was less than three million, there were two million. Kings generally don't brag, they only get ambiguous, and there is nothing wrong with saying three million from more than two million.
But now, after removing the defenders of the Southern Tang Dynasty in various places, Qin Shuang found that the Southern Tang Dynasty still had nearly 400,000 troops, and it was also a mystery where these troops would be used. But I'm not very worried, I'm just the daughter of Captain Langya, and I'm just here to supervise the army on behalf of my father, as long as I don't go wrong here, even if it's the thunderous one on the throne, I don't have anything to do with myself.
"Even if the Southern Tang still has 400,000 soldiers and horses, it shouldn't give us a surprise attack......" Wang Meng frowned, "The logistics of a million army is not a small number, if the number is more, it is estimated that the Southern Tang will be dragged down by its own army." ”
Qin Shuang also nodded, after all, the army of the Southern Tang Dynasty is almost at the limit now, and if it is increased, it will be the same as Wang Meng said, and he will be dragged down by himself.
It's just that Qin Shuang is still a little uneasy, maybe that madman-like Tang King may really use these 400,000 soldiers and horses to surprise others, after all, this is the prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty who was unexpectedly registered back then, and it was because of his madness that he took a big gamble that he had today's status.
At this time, the two guards of the dark warbler came over quickly, put the bamboo tube in their hands in front of Qin Shuang, and then walked away quickly, as if they had never appeared.
