Fortunately, Jinzhou had already prepared psychologically and substantively. Nanzhou had prepared a retreat route for them. As soon as the war started, Jinzhou began to withdraw a large amount of supplies to Nanzhou. Nanzhou did not obtain permission from the Yan State court.
So he opened the border of Yan State and allowed the Jinzhou forces to come in without any obstruction.
The people of Jinzhou retreated while fighting, and finally retreated into Nanzhou. The long-standing foundation of Wandong Tianfu finally fell into the hands of the Zhao court.
The troops of Zhao State also advanced to the border of Nanzhou, which was also the border of Yan State. There was quite a dispute between the Zhao State and the court about whether to invade the territory of Yan State and get involved in a larger war. The troops of Zhao State were suppressed and hesitated at the border. For a while, they seemed to be hesitant.
.
The troops of Zhao State were pressing down on the territory, and the people of Nanzhou were in panic.
Although Zhao State had not launched an attack, Nanzhou was already preparing for war and began to evacuate the people of Nanzhou to the direction of Dingzhou to prevent the common people from suffering in the war.
Many people have finally settled down in Nanzhou and are unwilling to abandon their homes and businesses. They are reluctant to leave. They are full of sadness when they leave, supporting the elderly and the young.
The good situation and stable order established in Nanzhou over the years were instantly destroyed...
When the fast-moving army stopped for a break, a large bird came from the distant sky and landed. Huang Lie, the leader of Dachan Mountain, who had returned to Nanzhou to check the situation, returned.
He barged directly into the Chinese army tent with a sullen face.
Meng Shanming was explaining matters to Shang Chaozong. Shang Chaozong was leaving and wanted to lead Nanzhou's cavalry back to Nanzhou urgently. There was no general in Nanzhou to preside over the situation, so he and Meng Shanming had to go back. In the end, they decided to let Shang Chaozong
go back.
The most important reason is that Meng Shanming, the princes of all parties here, is easier to control. Secondly, once Meng Shanming takes away the power of Nanzhou and leaves a Shang Dynasty clan here, it may be dangerous. The court can impose orders on the Shang Dynasty clan.
A poisonous hand can strike a second time.
We have secretly contacted Niu Youdao here. After the Nanzhou people and horses are far away, Niu Youdao will send large birds to meet them on the way. He will first send Shang Chaozong back to Nanzhou to take charge of the battle, and then the cavalry and horses will continue on their way.
Seeing Huang Lie entering, Meng Shan called out: "The emperor's master has arrived at just the right time. The prince is about to return to Nanzhou, please bother Dachan Mountain to escort him."
Huang Lie had a gloomy face and answered the question inappropriately, "Why do you want to let Jinzhou troops enter Nanzhou? Why didn't you discuss such a big matter with me, Dachan Mountain, in advance?"
Meng Shanming and Shang Chaozong looked at each other, and the latter asked: "Is there anything wrong?"
Huang Lie: "Don't tell me that you don't know the current situation in Nanzhou! Don't you know that only if Jinzhou is not given a way out, the Jinzhou people will fight to the death to resist the Zhao people? It's good now, Jinzhou has not become my
Nanzhou's forward blocking force, the troops fled into our Nanzhou, and our Nanzhou became the refuge of Jinzhou. Is it a refuge? We have given Zhao the perfect excuse to attack our Nanzhou! Now Zhao is over there
You are clamoring to order me, Nanzhou, to drive away the Jinzhou people immediately, otherwise we will become enemies of Zhao State, haven’t you thought about the consequences?”
Zongdao of the Shang Dynasty: "Master Huang, after all, Jinzhou is an ally of Nanzhou. We have known each other for many years and have been closely dependent on each other. It is not just a temporary relationship. How can we not be loyal and refuse to save him?"
Huang Lie was furious and stamped his feet: "My lord, you are confused. You have to be able to save it. When the matter has reached this point, you are deceiving yourself and others by talking about allies! Your lord, Meng Shuai, the matter can still be rectified now. Please give the order immediately to let
The Jinzhou people are getting out of Nanzhou. If they don't withdraw voluntarily, they will threaten to join forces with the Zhao State to deal with them. They dare not not withdraw! As for where they go is not our concern, as long as they are not in our Nanzhou."
Everything else is easy to talk about, but the current situation has directly threatened his interests in Dachan Mountain, and he has no choice but to be anxious.
Shang Chaozong: "I'm afraid Taoist Master will not agree to this matter."
"Haha!" Huang Lie sneered again and again, "It's Niu Youdao again, I knew this was his idea. My lord, Niu Youdao left Jinzhou a way out for his own selfishness. He has been trying his best.
The purpose of holding on to the negotiating power with Jinzhou is to play an irreplaceable role as a coordinator between Jinzhou and Nanzhou, and to protect his own interests. How can he be allowed to act selfishly in the face of big rights and wrongs? Nanzhou is at fault, and he
We can run away at any time, but what about us? We have so many people, where can we run?"
"Master Huang, don't be anxious yet." Meng Shanming waved his hand and said: "Things are not what you think. The decision to let Jinzhou troops withdraw into Nanzhou was not the decision of Dao Master alone. This matter was decided by Nanzhou to send troops to the east.
I had a long talk with Master Dao at Maolu Villa before, and I had already anticipated that Zhao State might take action against Jinzhou. At that time, I was already ready for Jinzhou troops to withdraw into Nanzhou. Let Jinzhou
The withdrawal of troops into Nanzhou is not only for the good of Jinzhou, but also for the good of Nanzhou."
"For my own good, Nanzhou? Meng Shuai, are you joking or fooling me?" Huang Lie asked in a deep voice, with a very ugly expression on his face. It was obvious that the other party was unrepentant and ignored the interests of his Dachan Mountain.
Meng Shanming first ordered Lu Zheng to go outside and guard against others. Then he signaled Luo Daan to push him in front of the map. He took a stick and pointed at the geographical locations of Nanzhou and Jinzhou. "When the prince escaped from the capital,
However, several hundred followers later borrowed troops from Guangyi County and established themselves in Canglu County. His Majesty was already afraid of him, so he did not touch the prince because he had other plans. When the prince's territory expanded to include the land of the two counties, his Majesty was triggered.
The murderous intention cannot be resisted by the power of the prince!"
The stick pointed at Jinzhou, "The reason why the prince is able to gain a foothold is because of the support of Jinzhou. The three major factions of Tianyumen and Yan State have good relations with each other and put pressure on the court. In addition, they are unwilling to make things big with Jinzhou of Zhao State.
For fear of provoking a national war, the imperial court in the two counties did not take it seriously, so they turned a blind eye and passed by. When the prince took over Nanzhou, the situation suddenly changed and the scabies disease was gone.
If it becomes a real trouble in the future, it will be difficult to contain the imperial court’s desire to kill.”
"At this time, the forces of Jinzhou and Nanzhou are equally matched, and they have truly become an alliance of mutual dependence. Whether it is Zhao Guo moving to Jinzhou, or Yan Guo moving to Nanzhou, they will face the two states joining forces to confront each other, no matter who the two countries are.
There is a huge price to pay for any action. The consequences of the rebellion in Cangzhou can be seen clearly, let alone two states joining forces? Such a mutually beneficial relationship will continue under the current situation and is beneficial to both parties.
As the prince said, the two states have been in close contact for many years and are closely interdependent. It is not a temporary relationship. When one party is in trouble, the other party cannot ignore it."
Huang Lie: "Shuai Meng, I understand all this. What's the difference between what you said and what you didn't say? What I'm talking about is the present. You can't protect yourself in the present, so why should you take care of Jinzhou?"
Meng Shanming crossed the stick in his hand and sighed: "Master Huang, I just understand the importance of protecting Jinzhou. If we talk about the current situation, the actual situation in front of us is that the master really thinks that we have listened to Zhao Guo's advice.
If the Jinzhou people and horses are handed over, can the State of Zhao really not attack Nanzhou? Under the general trend, if the State of Zhao wants to send troops to the State of Yan, if we hand over the people of the Jinzhou State, the State of Zhao will still send troops. If the State of Zhao does not want to use troops against the State of Yan, if the State of Zhao does not want to
If we make things worse and they regain Jinzhou, even if we take in the Jinzhou people, they still won’t dare to easily provoke war against the Yan State."
Huang Lie was silent.
"After discussing this matter with Master Dao, we came to this conclusion, and then we made the plan to take in the Jinzhou troops. At that time, our Nanzhou troops were about to march eastward, and Nanzhou's defense force was insufficient. Zhao had to defend it, and Jinzhou had to defend it.
The state's allies can be a dangerous obstacle for Nanzhou's frontier. Once Jinzhou cannot stop Zhao's offensive, the foreseeable decision-making will already bear fruit!"
The hand stick knocked Zhao Guo again, "If Zhao Guo insists on attacking Yan, our Nanzhou will be the first to bear the brunt. At this time, the elites of Nanzhou are fighting, and the elites of Dachanshan are also accompanying the army. It is difficult to retreat for the time being. And this time against Song Guo
During the war, Nanzhou also consumed a large amount of material support, and Nanzhou’s resources are no longer able to sustain another war.”
"At this time, Nanzhou is sticking to the loyalty of its allies regardless of safety. Jinzhou is in tears of gratitude. Nanzhou has been regarded as a fallback route by Jinzhou. Jinzhou's forces have almost evacuated Jinzhou. A large amount of supplies have been transported to our Nanzhou. At the same time, most of Jinzhou
The people and horses have withdrawn into our Nanzhou, and the spiritual forces of Wandong Tianfu have also withdrawn to help our Nanzhou. Nanzhou, which has gathered the human, material and financial resources of Jinzhou, needs people and horses, food and resources, Zhao
If the country does not attack me, we will stop. If it does, the forces in Jinzhou will have no way out and will fight to the death to help us in Nanzhou. We in Nanzhou have the confidence to fight bravely and can at least hold on until our reinforcements arrive!"
Huang Lie looked at the map blankly, feeling a little enlightened.
"Master Huang, this is the reason why I decided after discussing with Master Dao to let the Jinzhou troops enter our Nanzhou if the situation changes. This way we can not only make Jinzhou grateful without giving up our faith, but also use Jinzhou's strength to deal with foreign enemies.
If we drive Jinzhou out at this time, wouldn't we be cutting off our own arms? The emperor's head is trying to help drive out Jinzhou at this time. Once Zhao attacks Nanzhou, how can Nanzhou stop it? Who can help the interests of Dachan Mountain?
It harms others but does not benefit oneself, I hope the emperor will think twice!"
With the two of them looking at each other expectantly, Huang Lie was depressed for a while and said slowly, "Whenever I make such an important decision again in the future, I hope that I will be informed in advance!" After saying this, he threw away his sleeves and left, seemingly dissatisfied.
Meng Shanming and Shang Chaozong slowly turned back and looked at each other with a smile.
Huang Lie had just left the tent and let out a breath. Before he had gone far, he suddenly saw a large bird cruising in the sky letting go, and another large bird fell into the tent on the other side of the Zijin Cave.
Huang Lie squinted his eyes to check who was coming, and saw two Zijin Cave disciples escorting a female disciple. Even from a distance, he could see that the female disciple had an extraordinary appearance.
The woman's clothes fluttered to the ground, and she walked elegantly behind the other Zijindong disciples. Her hair was knotted, her skin was as good as snow, her face was crystal clear, and her figure was graceful. She walked gracefully with an elegant temperament, attracting the attention of those around her.
A lot of men's attention.
It can be seen from the behavior of the people coming over there that the beautiful woman seems to be the main visitor. Yue Yuan, the elder of Zijin Cave, exposed his lower body outside the tent and allowed the woman to enter, but did not let anyone else in.
Huang Lie, who had been observing for a while, asked Huang Tong, the elder beside him, "This woman has an excellent appearance. If she can come to the palace to meet her in Lince's tent, she must not be an ordinary disciple. Who is she from Zijin Cave? Why is she so strange?"
Huang Tong shook his head, "I've never heard of it, and I've never seen it. Let me find out more."
