The little thoughts of Beimo were clearly figured out by Yu Wenhao and Jingting.
In fact, the countries on this continent all have a deep understanding of the Northern Desert. Due to geographical reasons, they have the evil intention of aggression in their hearts. If there is a crack in any country, they will get in and want to suck some blood.
The people in power are all ruthless vampire demons.
And their people have been educated by the imperial court all year round, and they don't think aggression is a crime at all. Anyway, if the country wants to grow stronger, plundering is the best way.
"Strengthen your defenses."
Jingting still gave one more warning.
"I know, thank you for coming here to tell me."
"That's not necessarily true. The Qiankun Sword and I haven't yet been able to communicate spiritually, so it may be a perception error."
This is also the reason why he hesitated for two days and hasn't said it out yet, because defense is not a slogan, it is about deploying troops and arranging troops. If he says a word, the people below will run away and break their legs.
"The border city really needs to rearrange its troops. It hasn't changed in these years. People in the Northern Desert will always find out about the military situation. We should take advantage of this opportunity to practice training formations."
"Well, indeed."
The richer a country is, the more heavily defended it must be.
The Northern Desert covets other countries, but they are neighboring countries to the Northern Tang Dynasty, so their evil intentions are always towards the Northern Tang Dynasty.
The Ministry of War sent military orders to the border towns. King An and King Wei originally only guarded Jiangbei Mansion, but now they have to guard the five cities together.
There are few troops stationed in the city, and a large number of troops are stationed in Jiangbei Prefecture. Now, according to the emperor's imperial edict, the Ministry of War has said that there should also be troops stationed in the five cities, so the arrangement must be rearranged.
This is indeed a bit busy for the two princes. Fortunately, General Hu is also there, and the princes and princesses have trained many people who can stand alone, so it is not difficult to cooperate.
The next step is to train troops, practice city defense and mountain warfare.
Defending the city should be placed at the first level. If it can be defended, there will be no need for mountain warfare.
King Wei also made a special trip to the Kingdom of Jin to ask them to take precautions. He always felt that if there was any action in the Northern Desert, they might attack the Kingdom of Jin first.
The military defense of the Jin Kingdom was not that strong.
Emperor Jingtian and the King of Wei signed a joint defense agreement. No matter which side the Northern Desert attacked, the garrisons from the border towns of the two countries would be dispatched together.
King Wei signed the contract directly without reporting it to the emperor, because if the Northern Desert invaded the Jin Kingdom, the Northern Tang Dynasty would not be able to stand idly by and watch. After they robbed the Jin Kingdom, the Northern Tang Dynasty would also be in danger.
But if we invade the Northern Tang Dynasty, it is better to have Jin soldiers and horses to help support the station than to send troops and horses from other garrison camps in the Northern Tang Dynasty. When the troops and horses move, the food and grass go first, which costs a lot of money.
After signing, he ordered people to rush back to the imperial court. He arrived in the capital in two days and presented it to the emperor.
Yu Wenhao appreciated this move very much. Jiangbei Mansion is a solid line of defense. With this line of defense against the Northern Desert, the country can develop vigorously.
Not long after Jingting left, intelligence was received as expected, saying that Beimo was gathering troops to prepare for a large-scale invasion.
Yu Wenhao said to Yuan Qingling: "I can never believe the so-called peace covenants of those warlike countries. They signed the covenant because they were afraid of being beaten. As long as they take a breath, they will come back. The ambitions of the people of the Northern Desert will never be
It won't stop."
"Don't be angry, Beitang is not the Beitang of the past. If they dare to come, they must go back crying..." Yuan Qing Ling paused, "Or, they won't be able to go back."
"My queen is so domineering."
Yu Wenhao said with a smile.
He really felt that Beitang was not what it used to be. In the past, if there was any disturbance in Beimo, Beitang would tense up and discuss strategies intensively.
But things are different now. The army is strong and the treasury is full, so we are not afraid of a real fight.
Half a month later, a message came from King Wei of Jiangbei Prefecture, saying that 50,000 soldiers and horses from the Northern Desert were marching towards Ruodu City, and they were about to attack the Northern Desert head-on.
Ten days later, King Wei of Jiangbei Prefecture received good news. With the help of the Jiangbei Prefecture garrison in the Northern Tang Dynasty and the soldiers and horses of the Jin Kingdom, the Northern Desert was defeated and retreated.
The good news was read out in the court, and all the officials were very excited and happy. It was really a joy to the people. Bei Mo, who was once brave and good at fighting, now ran away like a mouse.
Yu Wenhao looked at the cheering and joyful officials and said, "If you are willing to fight, you will perish, but if you forget to fight, you will be in danger. So we still cannot take it lightly, and we must always be vigilant and keep an eye on those countries with wolfish ambitions."
"This time is something to be happy about. It means that our national strength has become stronger, but don't forget that the Northern Desert is determined to conquer us. Always remember this."
