Sitting in the big tent, there were twenty-four generals from Jingguo on the left and right sides, plus Li Goudan, there were exactly twenty-five people.
A huge map was spread out on the ground, with mountains and rivers drawn on it.
This is a map of the entire Zhou Kingdom!
It was the spies of Jingguo and Qianguo who had been surveying and mapping all over the Zhou Dynasty over the years.
As the relationship between the two countries became increasingly closer, the maps surveyed and drawn by both sides were taken out and compared, and finally the current map was drawn.
The map records in detail tens of thousands of cities in the Zhou Kingdom, even down to towns.
This shows how precious this map is.
Zhao Kang looked at the large and small cities on the map and kept thinking in his mind...??.
In this battle to destroy the country, Jingguo mobilized almost all the troops in the country, totaling more than 300,000 troops.
Although two-thirds of them are new troops and their combat effectiveness is questionable, all the generals are very confident and have great trust in the soldiers under their command.
Now that the Zhou Kingdom has no intention to fight, and with Zhao Kang's artillery army present, there is no reason why the battle will be lost.
"Li Fengkai." Zhao Kang opened his mouth and pointed out the name of a general.
The other party immediately stood up and said, "The end will be here."
"Command three thousand troops, two artillery pieces, target Wucheng, Guanzhou!"
"The general will obey his orders."
Zhao Kang: "Zhao Tianyuan, with three thousand troops and two artillery, aims at Yuncheng, Bianzhou."
"Liu Chenglong, command 3,000 artillery pieces and two artillery pieces, target Fengying City in Liangzhou."
Twelve military orders were issued in one breath, and the twelve generals of Jingjun received the orders one after another and immediately went to mobilize their troops and horses.
Deputy Commander-in-Chief Yu Chenggong looked at the locations of the cities mentioned by Zhao Kang on the map and found that they were all towns in the three neighboring states of the Zhou Kingdom.
And they are closely connected. As long as these twelve cities are captured first, with these twelve cities extending hundreds of miles from the inside to the surrounding areas,
Jing Jun will be like a nail driven into the Zhou Kingdom.
After hesitating for a moment, Yu Chenggong understood Zhao Kang's strategic intention and asked, "Commander, will this be too time-consuming?"
"After all, if we want to go deep into the Zhou Kingdom, wouldn't each general lead only three thousand troops, which is too little?"
Zhao Kang smiled and said, "Quite a few. These tens of thousands of people are just to attract the attention of others. The real boss is still you. Besides, each army is equipped with two artillery pieces. The ordinary Zhou army has never seen the power of cannons."
"As soon as the cannon fires, judging from the current combat effectiveness of Zhou's army, basically no one can stop them."
After hearing what he said, Yu Chenggong nodded slightly.
Zhao Kang added, "Yu Chenggong, Chen Maokai, and Gao Yuan are following the order."
The three Jingguo generals immediately stood up.
"The end is here!"
"I order you three to each lead one hundred thousand troops and fifty cannons, and march from Liangzhou, Bianzhou, and Guanzhou, with the goal of Yandu!"
Gao Yuan and the three of them felt excited in their hearts. The mature and steady Chen Maokai paused and said, "With such a handsome man, your place will be empty."
Zhao Kang rolled his eyes and laughed, "Didn't I leave twenty cannons and guards? Don't worry, maybe you all went to Yandu City, and I'm still staying here in Xizhou."
Many generals suddenly became happy, and some people laughed and said, "It seems that we really have to work harder to make the commander-in-chief's words come true!"
Zhao Kang also laughed and said, "Okay, let's all go down and get ready. The three armies will prepare meals at the second watch tonight and set off at the third watch. Do you understand?"
"I'll obey!"
After sending away the generals, Xu Yi continued to look at the map.
There is no need for him to charge into battle, he can just follow the army and command from behind.
As long as Wu Xiong of Qingyun Pass leads his army to surrender and Qingyun Pass is broken, then the two countries will be joined by Wu Xiong's troops.
That is, nearly 600,000 people are attacking Zhou State. Judging from Zhou State's current situation, it is impossible to resist it.
Therefore, ever since Wu Xiong asked Vice General Yuan to send a message, the state of Zhou was already completely dead.
While he was looking at the map, a soldier from outside came in and reported, "Commander, someone wants to see you."
"Let him in." Zhao Kang said without raising his head.
A man approached outside and saluted Zhao Kang respectfully, "National Master."
Xu Yi raised his head to look at the other party and said with a smile, "Here he comes."
The person who came was Cao Bailu's subordinate in Fengyun Tower, Lao Ma who used to be Zhao Kang's shopkeeper.
Shopkeeper Ma quickly said, "A total of thirty-seven people are due."
They were the group of people who escaped from Shengjing City after following Fang Shao to massacre Qi officials in Shengjing City.
Zhao Kang nodded, "You follow General Gao Yuan's army and enter the Zhou Kingdom from Guanzhou tomorrow, and bring everyone with you to create panic in the Zhou Kingdom."
"Then copy these down and paste them up every time you pass through a city."
Zhao Kang handed over a thick stack of papers on the desk. After taking it, Lao Ma looked down and was a little surprised.
"Commander, we don't know these things. Where did you get the news?"
Zhao Kang casually said, "I made it up."
The old horse was speechless.
The paper said that Li Muyi colluded with Xiao Feiyu, a traitor to the Qian Kingdom, to kill Li Chengkun and seize the throne! Kill his brothers!
It was written in detail, how the two people calculated it, and how Xiao Feiyu moved his hands.<
br>
Those who didn’t know thought that Zhao Kang was watching in person.
Zhao Kang was convinced that this incident was true, but the process was naturally made up by him.
But it’s okay, it doesn’t matter whether others believe it or not, as long as the people of Zhou State believe it.
Especially among those scholars, regicide to seize the throne was an absolutely treasonous act in the hearts of these scholars.
As for the matter of killing brothers, Zhao Kang was thinking about it. Li Muyi had become the emperor. Judging from this guy's temperament, I am afraid that the second prince Li Musen is basically in trouble.
"Remember, post the copied contents every time you arrive in a city. It is best to let the entire Zhou Kingdom know about it."
Lao Ma nodded first, and then asked curiously, "Is this useful?"
Zhao Kang tutted, "Didn't you read what I wrote? We sent troops to attack the Zhou Kingdom in order to avenge the late Zhou Emperor."
"This is an act of justice! This is also a means of creating panic, which is called a war of public opinion."
"By controlling public opinion, we stand on the moral high ground."
Zhao Kang laughed and suddenly asked, "By the way, I heard that Li Muyi likes wives, right?"
Lao Ma scratched his head, "From the news sent back by our people in the Zhou Kingdom, it is indeed true. This seems to be no secret in the Zhou Kingdom, and it is said that after Li Muyi became the emperor, he did not choose the queen or concubine."
"All the concubines of the late Zhou emperor were driven out of the palace, leaving only one concubine of the late emperor living in the harem."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! This guy is really nothing. His own woman dares to mess around."
Zhao Kang laughed in his heart, why not write some more colorful public opinion stories for this guy?
