In one winter, all the treasures in the Qinglian Mountains have been shipped out.
Nan Yanxi sent some personnel to secretly establish a military base at the former site of Tianyun Pavilion.
In order to ensure that in the future, the use of force against Yan and Daxia can act as a surprise attack.
The Nanhai Army already has nearly 300,000 new troops, who are proficient in and equipped with firearms.
Nearly two hundred new naval warships have been built, and more than two hundred warships have been renovated.
The newly established military department and cabinet have analyzed that if force is used against the small country of Nanzhao at this time, without foreign intervention.
It may only take 200,000 new troops and 100 battleships to do it.
But now, something unexpected happened to Nan Yanxi.
The Xiang family of Daxia... rebelled.
It was about three months ago, not long after Nan Yanxi sent Lin Shenqing back.
Xiang Tianxing and his party did not know how they obtained the tiger talisman, so they suddenly led their troops to rebel.
Since it was a sudden attack, Situ Wen was completely unprepared and lost several state capitals in an instant.
Yanzhou, Dongzhou, part of Liangzhou, one step of Zhongzhou, and one small step of Yuzhou all fell.
Situ Wen, on the other hand, could only lead a small part of his remaining team and moved the capital to Yunzhou to confront the Xiang family.
However, the Xiang family seemed to underestimate Situ Wen's strength. He actually took out the friendship treaty signed by Xia Yan and asked Dayan to send troops to attack.
Not to be outdone, Xiang Tianxing promised Dayan many benefits and hoped that they would not send troops.
Dayan hesitated, and the two armies immediately came to a stalemate, and neither could do anything to the other.
However, these changes are good news for Nan Yanxi.
As the saying goes, a dog bites a dog, and a snipe and a clam fight for the fisherman's profit.
It would be better if Dayan ends up in the end. Wouldn't it be beautiful if the three tigers fight each other and he hides behind to harvest the corn?
Hehe estimates that in less than a month, Rubink's caravan will arrive, and it's time for Beiyuan to take action.
At this time, Nan Yanxi was bringing a new army of 80,000 firearms and 80 battleships.
It slowly docked at the only ice-free port on the east coast of Beiyuan.
Nan Yanxi stood on the bow of the flagship and looked towards the shore, only to see a group of people waiting on the shore.
It was Dai Qin, the Great Khan of the Qiaonuo tribe, the crown prince Su Rile, as well as Li Yu, Ye Feiyu, Wang Sheng and others.
Seeing Nan Yanxi slowly getting off the boat, everyone hurried to greet her.
"Hahaha... My dear son-in-law, you are finally here!"
Dai Qin took the lead, came to Nan Yanxi's side in two steps, opened his strong arms and hugged Nan Yanxi fiercely.
With a body as strong as a bear, Nan Yanxi was like a child next to him.
Nan Yanxi was also happy and waved her head towards Dai Qin: "My father-in-law is here, please accept my respect from my son-in-law."
Then he scratched his head in embarrassment: "It's just that this time, Qi Muge didn't come with me. She is helping me train cavalry."
"Hahaha... It doesn't matter. If she can help a good husband, she will naturally like him."
Dai Qin smiled heartily: "There is a long way to go, but now we still have to focus on the great cause."
Nan Yanxi smiled and nodded, and met the others again.
Especially Li Yu, Nan Yanxi emphatically praised him. He played an indispensable role in the construction of Beiyuan!
Everyone exchanged pleasantries and walked towards the Qiao Nuo Department.
What shocked Nan Yanxi was that the leader of the Qiaonuo tribe had already moved from the grassland to the newly built city!
This city was named Qiaonuo City after the Qiaonuo tribe.
It covers a large area, even larger than Jin'an County.
Although the city wall is not very high, it is already quite good in this endless field of grasslands and tents.
In particular, Li Yu took the initiative to dig a wider and deeper moat.
However, the grassland is relatively short of water, so there is no water in the moat, instead there are sharp iron thorns.
For Beiyuan soldiers who are not good at attacking cities, this kind of defense is already very difficult to overcome.
There are rows of houses in the city, arranged neatly. Each house has two floors, with a small yard.
The gates outside the city were designed as sheep pens, cattle pens, and horse stables.
In this way, herdsmen no longer have to worry about having nowhere to raise their livestock at night.
Not only that, the soldiers patrolling the city walls can also take care of the sheep.
The Great Khan's residence of Dai Qin was built in the center of the city.
Nan Yanxi looked up and couldn't help but marvel. This Great Khan's Palace was almost as grand as his own Prince's Palace.
After asking Li Yu, I found out that this was designed after the Prince's Mansion of Nanhai Kingdom.
The tall palace gate has three characters on the door plaque: "The Great Khan's Palace!"
On both sides of the door are a pair of wolves howling at the moon, lifelike and majestic.
In contrast, Nan Yanxi praised Li Yu again and fully affirmed his work ability.
"Come on, come on... My virtuous son-in-law, don't just stand there stupidly, come into the house quickly!"
Dai Qin reached out and patted Nan Yanxi's shoulder: "It's all thanks to you that my father can live in such a magnificent mansion."
"The reception banquet in the mansion is ready, let's go..."
Nan Yanxi smiled heartily: "My father-in-law has met someone else, this is what a son-in-law should do!"
"Not only that! In the future, it will not only be this city!"
Nan Yanxi patted her shoulders: "In the near future, we will have a second city, a third city, a fourth city, and countless cities."
"In the future, our vast Northern Plains will be filled with towns and fertile fields."
"People no longer have to sleep in the open air, and they no longer have to be homeless."
"Everyone has a farm and lives and works in peace and contentment, so the population will increase and the tax revenue will also increase."
"Yes, in the near future, our Qiaonuo Department will definitely be able to regain its former glory!"
Dai Qin's words were full of excitement: "By then, the Bari tribe will no longer be a problem!"
"Haha...Father-in-law, there is no need to wait for the future." Nan Yanxi said proudly: "This time my son-in-law is here not just to deliver supplies!"
"Oh?" Dai Qin was stunned when he heard this and immediately understood.
He took Nan Yanxi's hand and said, "Xian son-in-law, this is not the place to talk. Let's talk in detail at the banquet."
After saying that, he took Nan Yanxi's hand and walked quickly into the house.
Everyone behind him hurriedly followed.
Everyone slowly took their seats and drove the servants out.
Only the Great Khan Daiqin, the Crown Prince Su Rile, the county prince Li Yu, Ye Feiyu and Wang Sheng were left in the house.
Then there are Nan Yanxi and Ye Zhiyu who followed.
First, everyone drank twice as much, chatted briefly, and ate something. Dai Qin couldn't wait to ask Nan Yanxi.
"Xian son-in-law, you just said that this visit is not just to deliver supplies. What do you mean?"
In fact, Dai Qin felt something was wrong from the beginning, and was wondering why Nan Yanxi came in person to deliver supplies this time.
I was about to ask a question at the banquet, but Nan Yanxi said it first.
Looking at the expectant looks of everyone in Beiyuan, Nan Yanxi and Ye Zhiyu looked at each other and smiled.
Explained: "It's like this. You have already heard about Daxia Dayan."
"On the other side of the South China Sea, everything has been formalized, and Daxia Dayan has too much to take care of itself at this time. It's a good time to start an uprising."
Nan Yanxi paused: "I have brought 80,000 new troops with me this time. To put it bluntly, as long as the Ba Ri tribe dares to come, not even a hair of horse hair will let him go back."
After saying that, he asked Xiang Daiqin: "Father-in-law, I don't know when will your royal court selection event be held?"
"It's almost time. It will start in another month."
Dai Qin raised his glass and took a sip, and said with some concern: "Xian son-in-law, you only brought 80,000 people with you this time? Are they all infantry?"
"It's not that your father's ambition will destroy your own majesty, but the Bari tribe and its lackeys can easily produce more than ten or two hundred thousand cavalry."
"You only bring 80,000 troops. Even if you are an elite army, even if you add troops from my Qiaonuo tribe, you may not be able to fight against them."
Hearing this, Nan Yanxi turned around and found that Su Rile and others also had worried faces.
Then he smiled easily: "Everyone, have you forgotten how I defeated the 60,000 army of the former prince of Nanhai with an army of 26,000?"
"Capturing Kyoto City in the South China Sea in one night is what our new army is capable of."
After saying that, Nan Yanxi paused again, turned to Dai Qin and said, "Father-in-law, I wonder how many elite cavalry you have?"
"My son-in-law has brought a big gift and is about to give it to his father-in-law."
Dai Qin was stunned when he heard this: "Gift? Uh... if it's an elite direct descendant..."
"My father has about six thousand people, all of whom have been warriors who have followed me for many years!"
