Chapter 1661 Reinforcements

Bohai!

All the generals have changed their colors.

"Except for the Bohai Sea, we no longer have any reinforcements that can be used." Wang Xingchao said: "Yuan Gaijian has been building strong troops over the years. He claims to have 100,000 armors. There is no 100,000, but 30,000 to 50,000 are definitely more than enough."

All the generals were silent for a while.

If it is said that the use of the Xile tribes is justified, but when it comes to the Bohai people, all the generals here feel that it is very inappropriate.

The Bohai people are completely different from the Xile tribes.

After the Xile tribes surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, they indeed respected the Tang Dynasty and always regarded themselves as subordinates.

Moreover, the tribes of Xile are fighting with each other. The three most powerful tribes all have the same long-cherished wish, which is to unify Modong and rebuild the kingdom of Xile.

Regarding the Tang Dynasty, the three Xile tribes did not dare to commit suicide.

But Bohai people are different.

As early as the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Bohai people once occupied a large area of ​​territory in the Northeast. At that time, they not only completely annexed Xuantu County, but even invaded Liaodong County.

It is precisely because of this that Emperor Wu Zong personally conquered the Bohai Sea and almost destroyed the country in the Bohai Sea.

Although Bohai finally surrendered and Wu Zong enfeoffed the five princes of Bohai, the Bohai people's hatred and ambition towards the Tang Dynasty did not disappear.

Although Yuan Gai's army has not pointed its sword directly at the Tang Dynasty, but has been encroaching on the territory of the Xile people, the Liaodong generals actually know that the ultimate goal of the Bohai people is definitely still the Tang Dynasty.

Wang Xingchao actually asked for help from the Bohai Sea, and all the generals found it incredible.

Wouldn't that be inviting the wolf into the house?

The people of Bohai never dared to act rashly, but they were still wary of the Tang Dynasty.

If the Liaodong Army asks for help from the Bohai Sea, it will play into the hands of the Bohai people.

.

Yuan Gaijian had the name of assisting the Liaodong Army in countering the rebellion, and it was a dream come true for him to be famous.

But once the Bohai Navy set foot on the territory of the Tang Dynasty, it would be easier to invite the gods than to send them away.

"Today is a military meeting, and I will not make any arbitrary decisions." Wang Xingchao glanced at the faces of the generals one by one, "You all should also express your opinions."

All the generals were silent.

"Zhao Fu, what do you mean?"

Zhao Fu forced a smile and said: "General, all my subordinates will obey your orders."

"So, do you agree with borrowing troops from the Bohai people?"

"Since the general has decided, all subordinates will obey."

"If you have any ideas, just tell me."

Zhao Fu hesitated for a moment and then said: "General, do the Bohai people really want to borrow troops?"

"Don't forget that Yuan Gaijian and Qin Xiao had a son-killing feud." Wang Xingchao said: "His beloved son Yuan Gai Wushuang was killed by Qin Xiao in Kyoto. This time Yuan Gaiyue was also captured by Qin Xiao. Yuan Gai was also captured by Qin Xiao.

Jian hates Qin Xiao with all his heart, and if he has the opportunity to take revenge with his own hands, he will never miss it."

"General, Yuan Gaijian is not an ordinary person." Someone bravely said: "This man is very ambitious and has always coveted the Northeast. If he borrows troops from the Bohai Sea this time, is it possible that he will lure a wolf into his house?"

Hearing someone say it, others couldn't help but look at Wang Xingchao.

Wang Xingchao smiled faintly and said: "How can I not know your concerns? If you borrow troops from Yuan Gaijian and give him a name to enter the Northeast, it will naturally play into his hands and he will definitely agree. But if you

Worried about tens of thousands of Bohai armor entering the Northeast,

We may not be able to control it by then."

"Exactly." Zhao Fu said hurriedly: "General, once they come in, it will not be easy to get them to leave."

"General, the Bohai people once invaded the territory of the Northeast. Those beasts can't do anything good." Someone worried: "They burned, killed and looted in the Northeast. The things they grabbed were shipped back to the Bohai Sea in large quantities. How many people died under their butcher knives?

Although Qin Xiao is hateful, he is still from the Tang Dynasty. The humble general boldly said that even if Liaodong is captured by Long Rui's army, the Bohai people will never be allowed to come over."

When the other generals heard this, they couldn't help but nod.

All the generals here are direct descendants of Liaodong, and most of their ancestors were soldiers who followed Emperor Wuzong in his eastern expedition. They are also aware of what the Bohai people did in the Northeast.

"Don't worry, even if we mobilize troops to the Bohai Sea, I will not be so stupid as to let their armor set foot on the land of the Tang Dynasty." Wang Xingchao said slowly: "What I will borrow from them is the naval army!"

The generals looked at each other.

"You all know that Yuan Gaijian has built a navy many years ago." Wang Xingchao said: "As far as I know, the Bohai Sea Navy has fifty or sixty warships, including eight large warships. The navy

There are also five thousand people. To be fair, the strength of the Bohai Sea Navy has long been far superior to that of our Liaodong Navy. When I wanted to expand the navy, I was worried that the navy would not be able to cope with the Bohai Sea Navy."

One person said: "My subordinates also know that the Bohai Navy is indeed well-trained. Yuan Gaijian attaches great importance to the Bohai Navy and has invested a lot of financial resources."

"I'm going to borrow it

This is the navy." Wang Xingchao said: "After the current saint ascended the throne, he repeatedly downsized the Tang Dynasty navy. In the past twenty years, almost no warships have been built. The Jiangnan navy has a false reputation, and even the Taihu pirates cannot deal with it. If they encounter

If the navy goes to the Bohai Sea, it will definitely be vulnerable."

Someone laughed and said: "The Jiangnan navy is not worth mentioning. They don't even dare to leave the seaport."

"Qin Xiao was so cunning that he secretly linked up with the Taihu pirates and set up a navy with the Taihu pirates as his team." Wang Xingchao said: "The Taihu pirates are indeed quite powerful at sea, but they will definitely be vulnerable to the Bohai Navy.

Nowadays, the Taihu pirates are arrogant and domineering in the East China Sea, even roaming near Changsheng Port. If this group of pirates is not annihilated, it will also be a great threat to us in Liaodong."

"Yes, those Taihu pirates must be completely wiped out!"

"It is indeed a good idea to use the Bohai navy to deal with the Taihu pirates."

"The general is wise and powerful, and he plans strategies."

Seeing that the atmosphere in the meeting hall relaxed, Wang Xingchao said with a smile: "Borrowing troops from the Bohai Sea will prevent any of their soldiers from setting foot on the land of the Tang Dynasty. But the East China Sea can be lent to them temporarily. The Bohai Sea Navy only needs to

After annihilating the Taihu Pirates, Qin Xiao can no longer do anything at sea. We can still use the sea route to obtain supplies from the pass." His face turned cold, his eyes sharp, and he sneered: "And the Bohai Navy can cruise on the west coast of Liaoning and appear directly on the west coast of Liaoning.

Qin Xiao's rear poses a huge threat to western Liaoning."

When the generals heard this, they immediately became excited.

"If the Bohai Sea Army appears behind Qin Xiao, Qin Xiao will have to divide his troops to guard the coastline." Zhao Fu said with a proud smile: "Qin Xiao is not

Do you claim to love the people like your own children? The Bohai people are roaming along the coast, and they will definitely land and plunder from time to time. If Qin Xiao cannot respond to protect the people, he will definitely lose the support of the people, and the morale of Long Rui's army will also be affected."

"The coastlines of Liaoxi and Yingping counties are extremely long. Without the protection of Taihu pirates, the Bohai navy can advance and retreat at will on their coastlines." A general said excitedly: "Qin Xiao is too tired to cope with it, and he dare not continue to advance eastward.

.If he transfers his troops to coastal defense, he will be in a two-front battle situation, and we may not be able to attack Yingping."

"If we get the support of the Bohai people, we still don't know who will win the battle between the two armies." An older general stroked his beard and said: "If the Xile tribes see that the situation is unclear, they will not dare to act rashly. In this way, Long will

The sharp army will not be able to receive direct reinforcements from the Xile tribes."

Everyone else also nodded.

The atmosphere in front of the meeting hall was originally extremely solemn, but now it began to relax.

"If Long Rui's army is trapped in a two-front battle, Qin Xiao will be unable to continue to advance eastward." Wang Xingchao said: "We can also buy more time to prepare for war. Although it cannot give our army an absolute advantage, it is enough to compete with

Long Ruijun fights to the death!"

Someone cautiously asked: "General, will Yuan Gaijian agree? His purpose is to take advantage of the situation to enter the Northeast. If he only lends navy troops to them but does not allow infantry to enter the Northeast, will Yuan Gaijian be willing?"

Others also have this concern.

All the generals felt that it was inappropriate to let the Bohai Navy directly enter the land of Datang.

But just asking the Bohai Navy to send troops, the generals thought it was acceptable.

After all, the current situation is extremely severe. Without foreign aid, the Liaodong Army's current strength will indeed not be able to fight Long Rui's Army.

However, Yuan Gaijian is also a cunning person. If he just asks Bohai to send out naval forces, can the people of Bohai agree?

"If you have no objections, I will send people to the Bohai Sea to negotiate." Wang Xingchao said: "I will naturally try my best to persuade Yuan Gaijian to send troops."

All the generals nodded. Many of them had previously learned that the three Xile tribes had fallen to Long Rui's army, and they had despaired. But now they had hope again. They all felt that in the battle between the two armies in the Northeast, who would have the last laugh?

, that is indeed not yet known.

"Whether it is preparing the army for war or seconding the Bohai Navy, there is no shortage of money and food." Wang Xingchao returned to the previous topic, "This time you must work together to overcome the difficulties." He stood up and said: "Today's meeting, we will come here first.

You all go back and make preparations, and within three days, all the money and food that should be donated will be paid."

As soon as this was mentioned, everyone's mood suddenly became depressed again.

Wang Xingchao put his hands behind his back and said in an indifferent voice: "You have already agreed before, and naturally you will not regret it. However, if anyone is unhappy, you can go back to the camp and come to me with your troops. I will be waiting here." But it was.

Without further words, he left.

Everyone looked at each other in shock.

Wang Xingchao's last words were very sinister.

"Let's go, let's go home and get ready." Zhao Fu grimaced, shook his head, and left first. Everyone else could only sigh and leave.

Wang Xingchao returned directly to the back hall, but there was already someone waiting in the hall. Seeing Wang Xingchao come in, he hurriedly stood up and greeted him, respectfully saying: "General!" This person was none other than the Anton Protectorate.

Deputy Protector Song Qingyuan.

"Sit down and talk." Wang Xingchao said with a friendly expression, "I've been waiting for a long time!"

"Don't dare!"

After Wang Xingchao sat down, Song Qingyuan sat down opposite.

"It has been agreed to second the navy to the Bohai Sea." Wang Xingchao looked at Song Qingyuan and said: "You can prepare and set off tomorrow. I will send a team of people to escort you to the Bohai Sea."

Song Qingyuan cupped his hands and said: "When I leave, I will try my best to persuade Yuan Gaijian."

"Actually, there is no need for any persuasion." Wang Xingchao asked, "Do you have the oath with you?"

Song Qingyuan hurriedly carefully took out a document from his arms, stood up, and presented it to Wang Xingchao with both hands.
