Chapter 309 Appearance

“Liu Yuanhai is dead?” Wang Mi was taken aback when he heard the news, but what was even more surprising was the identity of the new emperor. “Why is Liu Yi and Liu He succeeding him?”

“It is said that the prince Xun killed His Majesty, and then killed King Qi, King Lu, and imprisoned King Beihai. It was King Qin who rushed back from the Shangdang, captured Pingyang, and killed the rebellious ministers before pushing the King of Beihai to the throne…”

Listening to the messenger’s few words explaining the situation that day, Wang Mi frowned: “That Tu Gezi killed Liu He? This is terrible…”

Wang Mi and Liu Yao were married, so if they had admitted their mistakes to each other and eased the relationship, it would be fine. Now Liu Yao has become a minister of power to hold the emperor. Is he credible even if he is a Jin who has come to work and has a heavy hand, even if he bows his head to his ears?

“Is there any edict in Pingyang?” Wang Mi asked again.

“Unexpectedly, the new emperor seems to want to move the capital to Chang’an, and Pingyang is busy with this.” The messenger said.

According to common sense, Liu Yao really didn’t need their leading “outsiders” to add to the chaos just after the civil strife was put down. But Wang Mi was still uneasy. Even if it is for the sake of the overall situation, Liu Yao will not tolerate himself for long. He is not Liu Yuan’s kind of broad-minded person. It seems that in Han, I can’t stay any longer.

Wang Zhang snorted coldly: “Liu Yao is just a fake, I don’t believe that everyone in the DPRK will listen to him. When I arrive in Chang’an, I don’t know what it will be like. Brother, it is better to leave Han country now. Stand on your own. Anyway, Yuzhou and Qingzhou are already in your hands, and you turn your heads to take Jingzhou, aren’t they also princes sitting on one side?”

This is exactly what Wang Mi thought. But there is one point, but I can’t help mentioning: “That Jinu still occupies Yanzhou, it’s not appropriate to put these tigers on his side.”

What he said was naturally Shi Le. A month ago, Wang Mi and Shi Le joined forces to attack Gou Xi together. Gou Xi was almost driven into a dead end now. If you pull away, don’t say you can’t destroy the strong enemy, maybe you will get a counterattack by Shi Le. Over the past few months, he did not dare to underestimate that Jie Ren. Obviously, he only brought 10,000 soldiers and horses, and it expanded to forty to fifty thousand in a flash, and the land he crossed was invincible! Such a person is not bad to be an ally, but it is too dangerous to be an enemy.

Wang Zhang’s tone was stern: “I don’t think that Jianu is very reliable, so it’s better to find a chance and kill the matter.”

Shi Le’s ability to change wall heads is really too strong, and now it is still Liu Yao’s line, how submissive he looked back then. Killing him and seizing his turf warriors and horses is the truth.

“This matter can’t be rushed.” Wang Mi gently knocked on the table. “Now it is still important to kill Gou Xi first. When you’re done, you can fight Shile with Cao Yi. Are you afraid that you can’t kill him?”

Wang Mi was also considered a decisive figure, and soon there was a case. First stabilize Shi Le, join forces to attack Gou Xi, and then cross the river to demolish the bridge when things are done. Anyway, Liu Yao was anxious to move the capital, so he should not be able to deal with him. Taking this opportunity to use this Jie general, wouldn’t it have the best of both worlds?

“My brother is absolutely right!” Wang Zhang became excited. If Shile can be killed, Yanzhou will also fall into his hands. By then, the territory controlled by his elder brother will not be much worse than that of the Huns. Rong Dishang can establish a country, isn’t his brother more suitable for ruling the world? !

Because it was a coalition army, Shile’s camp was not too far away from Wang Mi’s barracks. He also knew the news that the other party could detect. Liu Yuan died unexpectedly, and died so embarrassed. Now that Liu Yao is in power, the situation is completely different from before.

How could he be regarded as Liu Yao’s line, but the emperor’s violent death, imperial court turmoil, and even the relocation of the capital, Liu Yao did not recall him or Wang Mi’s soldiers and horses, and his intentions could not be clearer. Now that the Huns are empty inside, before the situation is stable, they dare not use these newly attached people.

What would Wang Mi think? He was at odds with Liu Yao, and now I am afraid it is even more jealous. It is not impossible to go out of Han. If he came to win himself, how would he respond?

However, what Shi Le worried about did not happen. Instead of talking about self-reliance, Wang Mi was more active in dealing with Qi Gou Xi. Even the letters that I sent were familiar with the words.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Shi Le sent out several times more scouts, but he didn’t have any mercy in the battle. Under the attack of the two sides, the unbeatable Tu Uncle Gou Xi gradually lost his support, and the tortoise shrank into the city.

“Is there any movement in Bingzhou?” Now, this is Liu Yao’s most frequently asked sentence.

As the capital is about to be moved, all the people of Han are tensed. Before the chaos, a lot of elites were broken, and a large army was dispatched. Once merged with the state, they will be in trouble.

“Not yet. I’m afraid that the Bingzhou troops are robbing the summer grain.” The staff below said, “Why don’t your Majesty let General Shi and General Wang attack Sizhou and distract the troops and horses of Bingzhou?”

“Liang Feng won’t be fooled.” Liu Yao’s face was solemn.

It’s not that he has never thought of this way. Ming Shile or Wang Mi turned to fight Sizhou, and even Jizhou, causing Bingzhou soldiers and horses to be distracted by it. But after thinking about it, Liu Yao still did not order.

Too dangerous. Shi Le and Wang Mi are both newly attached. If they were brought to Sizhou, who might be attacked. Moreover, Liang Feng is not a simple character. If he does not care about Jizhou and Sizhou, but sends troops to fight Pingyang, then everything will be over!

The best way is to raise his hand and let them go. The surname Liang is an ambitious guy. After leaving the emperor Jin and then the emperor of the Han, wouldn’t Sizhou fall into his palm? Why bother with things that are at your fingertips.

Now, I can only take a gamble. Yujia wants to move to Chang’an as soon as possible. As for those Xiongnu nobles with deep roots, they don’t care about so many. Only after passing Tongguan and entering Guanzhong can they truly get rid of their evil neighbors.

However, the salt pond in Hedong still has to be guarded. Can’t lose this treasure place for making money again…

“Gaodu’s loss is really not small.” Looking at the report sent, Liang Feng sighed.

Although it is a long-planned strategic policy, it is still heartbreaking to see the battle report presented. The fields near Gaodu were completely destroyed, and even the water conservancy facilities were scrapped. Fortunately, the workshops have been moved out of the farm, otherwise it would be even more worrying.

“It’s just a harvest of one season. The farms and Gaodu have a lot of grain, so they should be able to overcome this difficulty.” Duan Qin said, “Now it is the Xihe country that is more important.”

This is where they are going to proceed next. If the Huns want to move their capital, there will not be too many soldiers and horses left. The West River Nation has lost the use of the isolation zone and has turned into a frontline for attacking the pseudo-Han. But after more than a year, it is not so easy to reorganize this place.

Liang Feng nodded: “Exterminate the locusts first. As long as the locust plague in Xihe Country is controlled, the pests can be eradicated.”

After several years of remediation, there have been a lot fewer locusts in other counties of the state. But Xihe Nation is different. It has suffered from locust plagues and has been left unmanaged all year round. It is even more out of control. Locusts do not have a migration range. Once a disaster occurs, they will fly everywhere. Even the Taiyuan country has to gather strength to eradicate locusts in the summer harvest in these years. Only by resolving the pests can the land be reclaimed. Only when Xihe Country settles down, can it be possible to mobilize troops and collect grain.

After speaking, Liang Feng said again: “There are water conservancy to keep up. Fenshui and Qinshui are big rivers that run through the two states. In the future, troops will be sent through the river.”

The previous wars were basically launched in the territory of Binzhou. Not only did they occupy the right place, they could also transport food nearby. But it will be different in the future. Whether it is fighting the Huns or attacking Youzhou, a large army must be deployed and travel long distances. If all of them are by land, the loss of transportation alone will cause headaches. What’s more, Bingzhou has a small population and a half-soldier, half-agricultural structure. How can there be so many servants available?

Therefore, river transportation has become the key to future operations. Fortunately, the enemy is not good at water wars, and there are opportunities to take advantage of them. If we wait for one day to send troops south, the navy will be more important than the cavalry infantry.

This is also the direction that Cishifu has been paying attention to recently. How can Duan Qin not know? Nodding slightly, he said: “Where is Sizhou? Do you want to increase troops? In case Shile and Wang Mi lead troops to attack, I am afraid that the ancestral general will not be able to resist it.”

Luoyang now has food, but its troops are still insufficient. Shi Le and Wang Mi occupied Yanzhou and Yuzhou, just on the flanks of Sizhou. Once they turned their heads to attack Sizhou, it was very bad.

“I talked to Meng Sun about this. The Xiongnu might not attack.” Liang Feng smiled slightly. “Liu Yao didn’t dare to order the two of them to come back for help, so how could he let them fight Sizhou? First focus on Xia Shou Xia. Plant it. There will be more refugees in the future, and food is the key.”

The undercurrents were raging in the several quarters, and Si and the two states fell into a weird calm. However, the calm did not last long. Soon, a message came from Yuzhou.

The Ruyin prefect was unbearable and the rebellious army raged, and he opened the city to surrender. Without the protection of the city, Gou Xi fled in embarrassment, fell to his body and died, and the army was defeated. After the victory, Wang Mi and Shi Le did not stop and attacked Shouchun!
