Chapter 115 Da Sima’s holiday axe, the commander-in-chief of the military of the five counties
Chaoguo, Chaohe, Liujiagang.
Ever since that earth-shattering blow appeared in the sky above Liucheng half a month ago, the young master who originally commanded the army gave up his position without saying a word.
This matter was too difficult, and could even put his life in danger if he was not careful. In addition, his mother's clan was also a direct daughter of the Qing clan, so it ended up being nothing. At this moment, someone else came to command this army.
A young master, Mr. Yangsheng.
At this moment, Young Master Yangsheng was discussing with his Jiacheng what to do next.
Jiacheng's family background is not good, he is not from the Qing clan, he is not even his legitimate son, he is just the concubine of a doctor. Fortunately, this concubine is also a genius, and he has awakened his bloodline at a young age, which is comparable to that of three generations.
At the level of a doctor.
However, this concubine was obviously not satisfied with this.
It is too difficult to open up wasteland. Nine out of ten doctors who go to open up wasteland will die at the hands of demons. The remaining one will succeed by luck, but most of them will be short-lived and will not live long at all. His son may not be able to hold on to such a large territory. In the end, only one will be left.
This is also common in rural areas.
After all the hard work and only one village, it is better to join a certain Qing clan from the beginning and become a guest of the Qing clan. The Qing clan will reward the whole village as a fief.
But this kind of life was obviously not what the concubine wanted, so he went to the young master Yangsheng. Isn't it shameful to burn a cold stove? What if the young master Yangsheng succeeds?
This concubine's name is Hu, Jiacheng Hu.
"Young Master, this time you command an army to attack Yancheng, there will definitely be many crises. Even if the monarch rewards you with a drop of the Emperor's true blood, no one will be willing. Otherwise, it won't be your turn, Young Master."
Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng laughed at himself: "I don't have a distinguished background. My mother died of illness shortly after giving birth to me. Naturally, I don't have any team members. Apart from this life, what else do I have? For me,
If you don't even dare to risk your life, how can you succeed?"
"There is a high probability that I will not succeed to the throne if I work hard, but if I don't work hard, it is completely impossible to succeed. What's more, this time is my chance. The drop of the Emperor's true blood that my father rewarded is genuine. I can use this drop of true blood to succeed.
Breakthrough, return to his ancestors and become an existence comparable to the second generation of ministers."
Jiacheng Hu nodded: "Master, the current situation is very complicated."
"For this battle, our goal is Yancheng. For this battle, the monarch has prepared two yellow-level Taoist soldiers for you, young master. He has also recruited 3,000 people from the capital and 20,000 retinue warriors. He has also asked the young master to command the east.
In the land of five counties, it is not unreasonable to supervise the military affairs of these five counties."
"But the more generous the monarch is, the greater the risk of this trip."
"Young Master, I put it harshly, these troops and the Young Master are just chess pieces used to test Yancheng. If you are not careful, they will be sacrificed. Then the Young Master's death will be of no value."
"Ever since that attack half a month ago, everyone knows that Yancheng is not easy to fight today. Even if the young master breaks through, coupled with the two Dao soldiers, it seems that the strength is only about the same as that shown in Yancheng now, and this has not taken into account that
Is Peng Bing alive or dead?"
"Although there are rumors that he is dead, who can guarantee it? We are the key to the temptation."
Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng nodded very seriously: "That's the truth, but it is also possible that Peng Bing is dead. If he dies and Yancheng has no other back-up, then this battle can be fought.
, after all, Uncle Bochang will also participate in this battle."
"This is my chance! Maybe this is my only chance. If I don't seize it, how can I succeed?"
Even if you know that there is probably a trap ahead, so what?
Many times it's not that we don't know there's a big pit ahead, but that we have no choice.
Many choices are considered stupid and foolish after the incident, but in the circumstances at the time, they may already seem to be the best choice.
This is how Young Master Yangsheng is, he has no choice.
"Then let's make good preparations. After all, there is still land for the five eastern counties." Jiacheng Hu said seriously.
The five eastern counties are all located outside Chaohe River.
Since the decisive battle between Peng Bing and Bochang, many legends from the past have been rediscovered, and many legends are now read as history books.
At that time, the first monarch of the Chao Kingdom used great supernatural powers to open up the Chao River directly near the Yangtze River and divert the water from the Yangtze River into the Chao River.
He first used his true body to make random arches on the ground, arching out the Chao River that looked like a circle, and then diverted water from the Yangtze River, and finally the Chao River became what it is today.
There are a total of twenty-six counties within the Chao River, and these twenty-six counties are the essence of the Chao Kingdom.
It is said that when the first monarch of Chao Kingdom was in power, Chao Kingdom had a total of 108 counties, and it was also a large vassal state. However, after his death, the second generation of descendants could not hold on to such a large territory, and various conspiracies arose.
Conspiracies and demon kings emerged one after another. When three generations succeeded to the throne, one hundred and eight counties became ninety-six counties.
Finally, it became what it is today.
The four Qing clans each guarded one side, located in the four directions of southeast, northwest and outside Chaohe River. In the east was the Hu clan of the Qing clan. Among the five counties in the east, the Hu clan occupied one county, and the other nobles, big and small, occupied two counties.
In the land, there are only two counties directly under the rule of the king.
Ten thousand years ago, these five counties were often submerged in the sea. Until ten thousand years ago, Mo Sheng sat in the East China Sea and taught the dragon tribe how to behave on his own. Even the Dragon Lord of the East China Sea was helped by Mo Sheng's fists.
Next, I learned the principles of good neighborliness and friendship.
Since then, few evil dragons have set off endless waves towards the mainland in order to become real dragons. It's not that they have become better behaved, but that they have changed their direction.
The five counties east of the Chao River only began to gain value from then on.
Before that, these five counties were often submerged by waves. Only savages could survive here, and the big nobles would not come here at all. There were too many demons and water tribes to kill them all.
"These five counties are short-lived, have not many nobles, and their heritage is not very good. Their overall strength is far behind the twenty-six counties within Chaohe River. The five counties combined, plus today's
Yancheng may be equivalent to the land of two counties."
"After we go there, we must first find a way to integrate these five counties."
Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng sighed directly: "Not to mention the land of five counties, there are only four counties left now. And it will take at least half a month for the army to leave Liujiagang and head to the east of Chaohe River. By then, it will be said
Maybe there will only be three counties left."
Jiacheng Hu smiled and said: "Sir, this is actually a good thing. There are only three counties left, so two counties have fallen into the hands of thieves. Moreover, the five eastern counties have little foundation, and most of the nobles are pioneers.
Nobles are not nobles ennobled by the monarch. The territories of these pioneering nobles are their own, so they usually pay very little tax to the monarch. Even if they are lost, the monarch has only a small amount of obligations."
"So, the young master might as well carry out publicity in a big way next, mainly in two aspects."
"The first aspect is that there are two counties that have fallen into the hands of thieves. There is no need to defeat Yancheng. Just take back the land of these two counties, and there will be at least thirty counties, and at least thirty doctor-level pioneers will be born.
Noble. Young Master, you are the Grand Sima Jiajie, the commander of the military of the five counties, and you still have the power to reward nobles."
There are not many other people in Chao country, but there are many old concubines!
Chinese people will train their bastards strictly in accordance with the requirements of the army from an early age. When they grow up, the bastards will definitely be qualified grassroots officers with well-developed muscles and familiar with basic military laws.
In addition to military training, scholars would also send their concubines to private schools run by doctors to learn some extraordinary knowledge. Many of the concubines of scholars were outstanding and even awakened their bloodline. As for the concubines of doctors, there is no need to say more.
Already.
Most of these bastards are full of martial virtue, they can all read and write, and they are also good at using weapons to kill.
The poorest bastard son of a countryman would also be given a weapon and some money by his father when he left his father. The bastard son of a scholar usually had a horse and an armor, and the bastard son of a doctor had even more. These bastard sons
With a little training we can become an elite soldier.
"As long as the young master is willing to give a reward, the bastards from all over the country will quickly gather towards Liujiagang. In this way, the young master will not lack elite soldiers. After a little training, the young master will have his own team. Moreover, there are also real geniuses among the bastards.
, there are dozens of them in the capital alone who are as young as three generations of doctors."
"As long as the young master is willing to unite these bastards and let them truly see hope, then after this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, the young master's team will be able to gather smoothly. By then, the young master will have talents, an army, a territory, and a
Wealth, at this time, it is possible to seize the direct descendants."
"The second aspect is to tell the nobles who have lost their land. Now that the monarch sends his son to recover the lost land, they must contribute. If nothing is done, after the lost land is recovered in the future, the land of a county as a fief in the past will only be given to a township.
In the past, those who had a village land and a fief were only given land to one village. In the past, those who had only one village land were given a thousand-acre manor. In the past, those who had no land were only given honors and no benefits were given."
"As soon as this news comes out, those landless nobles will definitely try their best to provide us with all the help they can. Here is the information."
Having said this, Jiachenghu clasped his fists and said, "Young master, please shield the secret."
Hearing this, Young Master Yangsheng blinked his eyes and took out a jade pendant with a smile. After crushing the jade pendant, a red light enveloped the area several feet in radius. The time was limited, and Jiacheng Lake was short story short.
"Sir, the rebels in Yancheng must be suppressed, but they cannot be truly suppressed. The scale must be grasped."
"Even if Yancheng is really powerful, it is still the king's business and the Chao Kingdom's business, not the responsibility of the young master."
"We want to reach a tacit understanding with Yancheng during this trip."
"First of all, we can tell Yancheng that we will train the army in Liujiagang and delay as much time as possible. It is already the second month of autumn, and it will be easy to delay it until winter. In this way, we can obtain trade concessions from Yancheng.
From now on, the trade between Yancheng and the domestic nobles must be handed over to us. With trade, you will have money, sir, and with money, we can raise troops."
"When winter comes, we will continue training based on our ancestral precept of not fighting in winter."
"Of course, there can be no action without fighting. The army still has to move forward. Next month, Sir, you will show your determination and command the army to Guyang County, which has not yet been captured."
"At that time, Young Master, you will be stationed in Guyang County and continue to send troops to fight. Whoever does not listen to you, Young Master, you will send to destroy the army outside Yancheng, and then use the tacit understanding to eliminate the leader of this army, and he will be considered the leader.
Even if you don't die, you can be beheaded directly after defeat."
"My lord, what you have to do is to use your power and position to completely control Dongjun and Guyang counties. When the time comes, lord, you can discuss with Yancheng in advance. They will withdraw from Dongjun and we will occupy Dongjun. There is no need to actually fight.
, can I send it out of the country as a gift?"
"At that time, we also had a record of taking action, and we finally recovered Dongjun. As for the other records, we could kill the savages, marinate them, and say they were soldiers of Yancheng. Who can say anything?"
"At that time, we only need the land of Dongjun and Guyang counties, and the remaining three counties will be handed over to them."
"Today, what Yancheng needs most is time. Yancheng seems strong, but there are already many problems internally. Jiang Hua also needs time to integrate the internal affairs again and unite them as one. He also needs time to cultivate a real team of confidants.
He still needs time to train Taoist soldiers and research new Taoist methods so that more of his subordinates can become Taoist priests."
"So, don't worry about Yancheng not agreeing."
"The key lies in how to divide the interests. If the negotiation is good, by the beginning of next spring, the elite soldiers composed of the concubines will have been trained. Young Master, you have also thoroughly digested the true blood of the Emperor of Heaven, and you can even build an army based on the concubines.
Belongs to your Taoist soldiers."
"At that time, it will not be too late to decide whether to fight or make peace."
"In my opinion, the most important thing to achieve this goal is tacit understanding. We will not do anything treasonous, nor will we do anything involving private collusion with Yancheng. Everything is a tacit understanding and everything is a coincidence."
"We have to fight next, and we can't really risk everything to fight."
"You must grasp the degree of this, Master."
"If you act too fake, young master, you will lose the favor of the nobles in the country. No matter what, the nobles will not accept a traitorous young master to succeed to the throne."
"But if everything is a real fight, then Young Master, you will really become cannon fodder. Even if you die on the battlefield, the others will only say a few hypocritical words to praise Young Master for his bravery."
At this point, the surrounding red light began to dim, and Jiacheng Hu stopped talking. Before the red light completely disappeared, Young Master Yangsheng nodded: "Then wait until next spring to have a good fight!"
Jiachenghu said appropriately: "All this is for the overall situation!"
