Royal Road - Chapter 310
[Chapter 309 | City]
“Liu Yuanhai is dead?” Wang Mi was surprised when he heard the news, but what was even more surprising was the identity of the new emperor.
“Why is it Liu Yi and Liu He who succeeded the throne?”
“It is said that the crown prince killed your majesty, then killed the kings of Qi and Lu, and imprisoned the king of Beihai. Or the king of Qin rushed back from Shangdang, captured Pingyang, and killed the chaotic ministers. Just now
, the King of Beihai has been promoted to the throne…”
Hearing the messenger explain the situation that day, Wang Mi frowned: “Then Tu Gezi killed Liu He? This is
too bad…” Wang Mi and Liu Yao were married , if you admit your mistakes to the other party and ease the relationship in the first place, that’s all.
Now that Liu Yao has become a powerful minister who holds the emperor, can he be trusted as a Jin person who has come to serve and has a heavy hand in his arms, even if he bows his head?
“Is there any edict in Pingyang?” Wang Mi asked again.
“Never, the new emperor seems to want to move the capital to Chang’an, and Pingyang is busy with this.” The messenger said.
According to common sense, just after the civil unrest was settled, Liu Yao really didn’t need their “outsiders” who led the troops to go and stir up the chaos.
But Wang Mi was still uneasy.
Liu Yao wouldn’t tolerate him for long even if he forbeared it for the sake of the overall situation. He was not a broad-minded person like Liu Yuan.
It seems that in the Han Dynasty, it is impossible to stay.
Wang Zhang snorted coldly: “Liu Yao is just a fake, I don’t believe that everyone in the court is willing to listen to him. When I arrive in Chang’an, I don’t know what the trouble will be like. Brother, why don’t you leave the Han kingdom now? Stand up for yourself. Anyway, Yuzhou and Qingzhou are already in your hands, and if you turn around and attack Jingzhou, aren’t you also the princes who are sitting on one side?”
This was exactly what Wang Mi thought.
But there is one thing that cannot be ignored: “That Jienu still occupies Yanzhou, and it is not appropriate to put such a tiger by his side.”
What he said, of course, was Shi Le.
A month ago, Wang Mi and Shi Le joined forces to attack Gou Xi.
Now, Gou Xi was almost driven to a dead end.
If he pulled away, not to mention that he couldn’t destroy the strong enemy, he might even be attacked by Shi Le.
In the past few months, he did not dare to underestimate that Jie Ren.
Obviously, he only brought 10,000 soldiers and horses, and it expanded to 40,000 or 50,000 in an instant, and the places he passed were invincible!
Such a person is not bad as an ally, but it is too dangerous to be an enemy.
Wang Zhang said in a calm tone, “I don’t think that Jienu is very reliable. Why don’t you find a chance and kill it.”
Shi Le’s ability to change the wall is too strong, and now he is Liu Yao’s family, how can he still look like he was submissive back then.
Killing him and taking his territory and troops is the right thing to do.
“This matter can’t be rushed.” Wang Mi lightly tapped on the table, “Now it’s more important to kill Gou Xi first. When you’re done, and then attack Shi Le with Cao Yi on both sides, are you afraid that you won’t be able to kill him?”
Wang Mi is also considered to be People who kill decisively will soon have a case.
Stabilize Shi Le first, join forces to attack Gou Xi, and then cross the river and demolish the bridge when things are done.
Anyway, Liu Yao was in a hurry to move the capital, so he shouldn’t have time to deal with him.
Taking this opportunity to use this Jie general, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds?
“Brother’s words are very true!” Wang Zhang became excited.
If Shi Le can be killed, Yanzhou will also fall into his hands. At that time, the territory controlled by his elder brother will not be much worse than that of the Xiongnu.
Rong Di is still able to establish a country, isn’t his brother more suitable to run the world?

Because it is a coalition, Shile’s camp is not too far from Wang Mi’s barracks.
He also knew the news that the other party could find out.
Liu Yuan actually died, and he died in such an embarrassing manner.
Now that Liu Yao is in power, the situation is completely different from before.
He was also considered to be in Liu Yao’s lineage, but in such major events as the sudden death of the emperor, the turmoil in the court, and even the relocation of the capital, Liu Yao did not recall him or Wang Mi’s troops.
Now that the Xiongnu is empty inside and the situation is not stable, they definitely dare not use their newly attached people.
What will Wang Mi think?
He and Liu Yao were not on good terms at first, and now I am afraid he is even more suspicious.
It is not impossible to go out of the Han state.
If he came to win over him, how would he deal with it?
However, what Shi Le feared did not happen.
Instead of talking about self-reliance, Wang Mi dealt with Gou Xi more actively.
Even the letters sent, the words are a bit closer.
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Shi Le sent several times more scouts, but they did not hesitate to fight.
Under the attack of the two sides, the mighty Tu Bo Gouxi gradually lost his support and shrank into the city.

“Is there any movement in Bingzhou?” Today, this is the most frequently asked sentence by Liu Yao.
With the imminent move of the capital, the Han state was all tense.
Before the chaos, a lot of elites were lost, and the army was dispatched outside.
Once Bingzhou raises troops, they will be in trouble.
“Not yet. I’m afraid the troops stationed in Bingzhou are rushing to harvest summer food.” The staff below said, “Why don’t your majesty let General Shi and General Wang attack Sizhou and divert the troops from Bingzhou?”
“Liang Feng will not be fooled.” Liu Yao’s face was solemn. .
He didn’t even think about it.
Ordering Shi Le or Wang Mi to turn their heads to fight Sizhou and even Jizhou, the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou had to be distracted.
But after thinking about it, Liu Yao still did not order.
Too dangerous.
Shi Le and Wang Mi were both newly attached. If they were led to Sizhou, who would be attacked.
Moreover, Liang Feng is not a simple role, if he does not care about Jizhou and Sizhou, but instead sends troops to fight Pingyang, then everything will be over!
The best way is to raise his hand and let them go.
The surnamed Liang is an ambitious guy. After leaving the emperor of Jin and then the emperor of Han, didn’t Sizhou fall into his hands?
It’s easy to get things, why bother.
As of now, it’s just a gamble.
The imperial car should be moved to Chang’an as soon as possible. As for those Xiongnu nobles with deep roots, they don’t care so much.
Only after passing Tongguan and entering Guanzhong can they truly get rid of their evil neighbors.
However, the Yanchi in the east of the river still has to be defended.
I can’t afford to lose this treasure of money…

“The loss of Gaodu is really not small.” Looking at the battle report, Liang Feng sighed.
Although it is a strategic policy that has been planned for a long time, it is still heartbreaking to see the battle report presented.
The fields near Gaodu were completely destroyed, and even the water conservancy facilities were scrapped.
Fortunately, the craftsmen have moved out of the farmhouse, otherwise it would be even more worrying.
“It’s just one season’s harvest. Both Tianzhuang and Gao have a lot of grain, so if they can get through this difficulty.” Duan Qin said, “It’s more important for Xihe Kingdom now.”
This is where they are going to start next.
If the Huns wanted to move their capital, there would certainly not be too many soldiers and horses left behind.
The Xihe Kingdom has lost its use as a barrier and has instead become a front line for attacking puppets.
And it has been abandoned for more than a year, and it is not so easy to rebuild this place.
Liang Feng nodded: “Let’s get rid of the locusts first, as long as the locust plague in Xihe country is controlled, the pests can be eradicated.”
After several years of rectification, the locusts in other counties in Bingzhou have been reduced a lot.
However, Xihe Kingdom is different. There has been a plague of locusts in the past, and no one manages it all the year round. It is even more out of control.
Locusts do not have a migration range. Once a disaster occurs, they will fly everywhere.
Even with the Taiyuan country coming to summer harvest these years, it must also gather strength to eliminate locusts.
Only by solving the pest infestation can we reclaim the land.
Only when the country of Xihe is settled down will it be possible to gather troops and store grain.
After finishing speaking, Liang Feng said again: “There are also water conservancy to keep up with. Fen and Qinshui are big rivers that run through the Division and the two states. In the future, troops must pass through the river.”
The previous battles were basically the same .
If it is launched in Bingzhou, not to mention the location, it can also transport food nearby.
But it will be different after that.
Whether fighting against the Xiongnu or attacking Youzhou, a large army must be launched and traveled long distances.
If all travel by land, the loss of transportation alone will be a headache.
What’s more, there are few people in Bingzhou, and it is a half-soldier and half-agricultural structure. How can there be so many servants available?
Therefore, river transport has become the key to future operations.
Fortunately, the enemy is not good at water warfare, and there are still opportunities to take advantage of.
If you wait for the day to send troops to the south, the navy is probably more important than the cavalry and infantry.
This is also the direction that the Governor’s House has been paying attention to recently, how could Duan Qin not know?
Nodding slightly, he said: “What about Sizhou? Do you want to increase troops? If Shi Le and Wang Mi lead troops to attack, I’m afraid that General Zu will not be able to resist.”
Luoyang now has food, but the army is still insufficient.
Shi Le and Wang Mi occupied Yanzhou and Yuzhou, which were on the flanks of Sizhou.
Once they turned their heads and attacked Sizhou, it was very bad.
“I talked to Mengsun about this, and the Huns may not attack.” Liang Feng smiled slightly, “Liu Yao dare not order the two of them to come back to help, so how could they let them fight Sizhou? Focus on Xia and Xia first. Plant it, there will be more refugees in the future, and food is the key.” There
were turbulent tides in several directions, and the Si and the two states fell into a strange calm.
However, the calm did not last long.
Soon, a message came from Yuzhou.
The prefect of Ruyin, unable to bear the rampage of the chaotic army, opened the city and surrendered.
Losing the protection of the city, Gou Xi fled in embarrassment, fell to his death, and the army was defeated.
After winning, Wang Mi and Shi Le did not stop and attacked Shouchun!
