Chapter 1168 Cao Kingdom's Heavenly Soldier, State Shepherd
Now that the Jiang family and the Long family have actually formed an alliance, Long Yan's biological daughter may be the future head of the Jiang family. This is a blood relationship.x.
"So you want to openly oppose the imperial court?" Long Kun asked.
"Haha, you are still too young!" Jiang Li said with a smile, "You are talking about the second brother. He does not represent the Jiang family. I am resisting the rebels. Although there is no great victory in Wangzhou, I still hold the battle line and contain it.
We lost a lot of rebel troops.”
"Isn't that interesting? Jiang Laoer can play like this without us." Long Kun showed his fox tail.
"You can't say that, we have reserved a seat." After speaking, Jiang Li took a sip of fragrant tea.
Long Kun frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Are you talking about the New Nineteenth Legion?"
"Of course, my Jiang family's energy is not in the military, as you know; with the equipment department and the corresponding army, your family's strength can be further improved."
"You are very scheming. Is that boy Ding Kui under your guidance?" Long Kun raised his eyebrows and smiled happily.
The New Nineteenth Legion and the New Twelfth Legion, the two reorganized legions are under the control of the Long family. Together with the troops controlled under the table, the Long family's military strength is second only to the royal family and the Ding family.
"He figured it out on his own. Don't forget that he is your son-in-law, and he should be filial to his father-in-law." Jiang Li smiled.
"Okay! My father is the representative of the Long family. Naturally, I can go and see my granddaughter. Brother Long Yuan can also get close to Ding Kui." Long Kun had gotten what he wanted and successfully completed his mission to Zhennancheng.
…
Cao and Qi are tired of fighting and have entered into a temporary truce.
Yao Mang immediately reported to Cao Qi about the civil strife in Shaodian Kingdom.
"Great, the Shaodian Kingdom has finally broken with the Ding family! Damn Qi Shao, he is trying to contain us at this time. Now is a great time to gain land in Jiangxi." Cao Qi was both excited and angry.
"What will you do, veteran?" Yao Mang smiled along with him.
Anyway, it was not him who made Cao Qi angry. The reason why Qi State went to war was inexplicable, and it was not something he could solve. He just had to be one of the people who made the king happy.
"Then you have completed the operation! The bounty coin is five million."
This reward was not promised by Cao Qi, and it had to be traced back to his ancestors, so he had to give it even if he didn't want to.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yao Mang immediately knelt down and saluted.
"Then I'll leave it to you to negotiate peace with Shaodian Country."
Yao Mang was slightly stunned and said: "They invaded our country and caused great losses to our country. Now Shaodian Kingdom is divided into pieces. Do you still want us to propose peace first?"
Cao Qi stroked his newly trimmed beard and said, "I can't tell you the specific reasons. Negotiating peace with Shaodian State has multiple benefits. First, it can devote more troops to Diyan Lake. Second, it can prompt Zhenjing City to take action against the Ding family. Third, it can
Well, if you have the opportunity to encourage Zhenjing to harass Qi State, why should you care about that little face issue?"
"Old minister, take your orders!" Yao Mang didn't ask any further questions.
…
In the first three days of June, violent incidents occurred frequently in Nanqiu County. The city lords of Jiecheng, Jizhou City, Kada City and Shun'an City were assassinated one after another.
The county governor Shu Wu issued a statement: In order to maintain the stability of each city, the eldest princess is requested to appoint acting city lords to manage the cities. The county governor's office will actively cooperate with the handover work.
In Yanling County, two people met secretly in a private house. One was a magician that Ding Kui had met at Pinxian Building, and the other was a man in his late thirties. This man was dressed in luxurious clothes and had triangular eyes and splayed eyebrows.
, his face was rosy but expressionless, with a light flashing in his eyes from time to time.
"Young Master, this is what happened... I didn't expect that Shu Wu would turn to Ding Kui!"
It seems that the magician is reporting to another person. That man is not simple. Only the son of a duke is qualified to be called the young prince.
"Zhong Liwei, how many of your Eighteen Heavenly Soldiers are in Nanqiu County?" The young master was not too surprised by Shu Wu's incident.
"To be honest, three heavenly soldiers have been killed in Nanqiu County, and there are only three left lurking. The security bureau is very powerful, and with the cooperation of people from the Intelligence Department, our activities there are quite dangerous."
It seems that the magician's name is Zhong Liwei and he is a member of the Eighteen Heavenly Soldiers.
"Hey, learn from your master. He has been lurking in the most dangerous place for more than ten years and still has the trust of the dead ghost. Haven't you learned the basics of him? There are three people in Nanqiu County. What do three people have?
use?
Shu Wu's change of attitude is quite clever. The alliance of the four cities we have already contacted has been completely disintegrated, and in turn fell into the hands of Ding Kui. Nanqiu County should not have the strength to compete with Ding Kui." The young master said in a calm tone.
Zhong Liwei asked cautiously: "In your opinion, how should we act?"
"Yanling County and Jinping County are border counties. They should not listen to the orders of the royal family. They are only loyal to the court. You should concentrate your efforts on these two counties first to plant the seeds of hostility against Ding Kui. If you have the opportunity, provoke the two.
The county sent troops to attack Nanqiu County."
"Then will you stay here forever?" Zhong Liwei asked.
The master of the Eighteen Heavenly Soldiers transferred them to the command of the Young Master. If the Young Master is absent, then Zhong Liwei's status will be the highest, and he will actually command them.
The young father-in-law glanced at Zhongliwei inadvertently, and his sharp eyes penetrated Zhongliwei's heart, "You don't need to worry about my affairs. Just do your own thing well. I will show up when I should show up." He said.
Say it in a tone that leaves no room for doubt.
"Yes!" Zhong Liwei lowered his head, with tears in his eyes.
Prefectural Shepherd Shao Dianxi also received news from Nanqiu County. He was very embarrassed at the moment. The local army in the prefecture had just been disbanded, and there were still many people stranded in the war zone base camp. However, no one had officially responded to his order yet.
He sent someone to contact the Kong family, and the Kong family's reply was "We only defend against foreign enemies, not war against the people of the country." This reason is quite good. The Kong family is just a noble and has no obligation to obey the orders of the state pastor. The establishment of a local army requires people's voluntariness.
If there had not been the invasion of the Three Kingdoms and the invasion of our own country, Nanma Prefecture would have had no difficulty in organizing one or two legions. However, two large-scale wars in succession severely damaged Nanma Prefecture's vitality, and it was severely short of money, food, and soldiers.
And who doesn’t know which territory Nanqiu County belongs to? The Red Army protecting the country was famous for a while. The flying general defeated powerful foreign enemies and defeated the surrounding countries. He didn’t lose to anyone. We need to use weapons against such people.
, it’s impossible without strength.
Of course, it doesn't mean that everyone wants Shao Dian Luan to be the superintendent of the country. If you, a princess, want to supervise the country casually, the kingdom will be in chaos long ago, although it is not much different now.
Boom, a teacup bloomed.
"Bastard! Didn't anyone respond to me?" Shao Dianxi was sulking at home.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!" A master surnamed Zhang stood up and said, "I think this matter lacks a leader. Nowadays, the counties and counties are very much waiting and watching. They are just taking advantage of the power of the eldest princess and the consort, and they dare not be the first to take the lead.
If someone jumps out and becomes a target, if someone stands up first to attract attention, others will join in and serve the court. It is their duty to serve the prince."
"I understand this too, so I contacted the Kong family again and again. I didn't expect that, hey, let's not mention it!" Shao Dianxi was so depressed.
He didn't want to think about how much the Kong family had contributed to Nanzhao Prefecture over the years. The Kong family's military expeditions were all done with the Kong family's money.
"The key lies in the base camp of the original Nanzhaozhou War Zone. There are 74th and 75th Divisions and half of the 12th Army Corps there. Who will they help if there is a fight? Commander Jiang is your most serious problem. It is best to communicate with him."
Master Zhang points out the facts that others dare not point out.
Zhushan County is located in the middle of Nanma Prefecture and is the location of the base camp of the war zone. Jiang Xi commanded tens of thousands of regular troops and was stationed there.
It is not difficult to guess Jiang Xi's attitude. Ding Kui's uncle would not allow others to attack Nanqiu County.
What most people are afraid of is this war zone base camp. Tens of thousands of regular troops can defeat a local army at any time, and no one wants to face them as an enemy.
"Well, I have talked with Duke An Guo about Ding Kui. Jiang Xi's attitude should be similar. Don't expect him to help us." Shao Dianxi shook his head fiercely.
"I have an idea that I don't know whether to talk about or not?" Master Zhang looked at Shao Dianxi.
Shao Dianxi looked around and confirmed that they were all of his own, so he nodded: "Go ahead, I won't blame you if you are wrong."
Master Zhang bowed first and then said: "Since no one on the ground dares to move first, why don't we consider the water?"
Shao Dianxi raised his eyebrows and nodded, indicating for him to continue.
"The navy of Nanzhao Prefecture will not be restrained by the ground forces, and Chunlu Bay Water Village is within Nanqiu County. We can order Commander Hua to lead the warships south, block the water first, and strictly prohibit any ships from Nanqiu County from sailing, and then wait for an opportunity to land.
Capture the cities along the river, and then transport troops to Nanqiu County via waterways."
Master Zhang spoke clearly and logically, and Shao Dianxi nodded frequently as he heard what he wanted.
"What a good idea! Hua Song can completely bypass the Nanzhao Prefecture War Zone." Shao Dianxi's thoughts gradually became clearer. "The state naval forces should listen to my orders, otherwise I will report to the Commander-in-Chief to withdraw the navy commander."
He was determined to oppose Shaodian Luan and forcefully ordered the Nanma Prefecture Navy to attack Nanqiu County.
An official document was sent to Hua Song the next day.
"Humph! Short-sighted person!" Hua Song was very dissatisfied.
"If you don't do a good job as a state pastor and insist on being in the limelight, what's the use of beating Ding Kui and arresting the eldest princess? Can the court still promote you to an official or a title?" What he couldn't figure out was Shao Dianxi.
.
Shaodianxi's official position is state pastor, except for the ministerial bosses of the two houses and houses, he is the state pastor at the bottom; his title is county prince, and the higher one is prince, but that is the title of the king's closest relative, except for the ones designated by the ancestors.
When I was young, there was no other person.
"If you are greedy for money, you have to stick close to Ding Kui. Even the previous kings wanted to make money from him, so it's not much more than the rewards from the court. Now that the kingdom is in such chaos, how can we get the money to reward them?" He was extremely unwilling to take the lead.
The army attacked Nanqiu County.
But he did not dare to tell others these complaints. Zhou Mu was in charge of military affairs and was his immediate superior. If he wanted to disobey orders, he could only start with the order itself.
"Blocking the water surface of the Tongyuan River? What exactly is a blockade? Hehe, there is something to be done here!" Hua Song quickly thought of countermeasures.
