Prime Minister take care

Chapter 473
Shenwu City.

Daliang moved its capital to Shenwu in Jizhou, and subsequently, Daliang's political, economic and military center of gravity also moved here.

Shenwu is the largest city in Jizhou and one of the few cities in the world.When Yuan Cheng rebelled and captured Jizhou, he established his base camp here.

After several changes, Huanwu took the city into his hands after defeating the Lu family.

Jizhou was originally the palace where the Zhou emperors went north, and a complete palace was built there.Not only that, several generations of emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty also built their imperial mausoleums near Shenwu.

Recently, after the death of Emperor Zhou Xia Yunxuan, her imperial mausoleum was located near Shenwu City.Fang Changshi, who was beside Xia Yunxuan, and dozens of chamberlains who were loyal to her, guarded her mausoleum.

After the Huan clan moved the capital, Huan Qing even sent hundreds of mausoleum guards to protect Xia Yunqi's mausoleum.

After half a year, Huan finally completed the task of moving the capital.But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, news came from the north that the monster clan was going south again.

In the main hall, Huan Qing, who was sitting on the throne, frowned and looked at the intelligence sent by Zheng Da from Youzhou with a very ugly face.

Zheng Da said above that three dragon hunters almost destroyed a military stronghold guarded by [-] sergeants.The military strongholds, passes and cities in northern Youzhou lacked sufficient ordnance to deal with the Dragon Hunters, so Zheng Da hoped to mobilize a thousand long crossbows from the rear to guard against possible threats.

Huan Qing frowned not because he didn't have these thousand long crossbows. On the contrary, with Liang Jun's financial and material resources, they could be easily allocated.What really worries Huan Qing is the combat power of the demon army.

Jie Niuwei has sent detailed information about the combat power of the demon and barbarian tribes, and the authenticity of this information has been confirmed by Zheng Da's memorial.

This alien army is no longer the ragtag group seen in past experience, but a formidable enemy that Liang Jun needs to face head-on.

But the problem is that with the surrender of Wu and Chu to the Zhou Dynasty, Daliang has actually fallen into a situation of being surrounded by the Zhou army.And now that the demon clan is moving south, it is even worse.

"Your Majesty, the alien race is rampant, but after all, it is just a disease, and the traitor Yang Xian is our most serious problem. Sending an envoy to befriend the Demon Emperor is actually a courtesy that the country should have. It can also use the power of the alien race to deal with the traitor The thief Yang Xian. Your Majesty does not need to worry too much since the envoy returns."

Huan Li stood up, looked at Huan Qing's face, and cupped his hands.

Huan Qing smiled inwardly, of course because of Huan Li's ignorance.If possible, Huan Qing would of course want to befriend Wu Hao. After all, he was unwilling to make another strong enemy at this time.

But in fact, judging from the military trends of the demon clan, Wu Hao obviously has no intention of making friends.He came this time to conquer this world.

And Wu Hao's main attack direction is Daliang.

Huan Qing sent an envoy to the Demon Clan King's tent, just in case, and at the very least, he could find out the real situation of the Demon Clan.

However, what was waiting for Huan Qing was anything but goodwill.

The drums were beating loudly outside the palace, and Huan Li's face was full of joy.

"Your Majesty, the envoy is back."

"Hurry up!"

All the ministers in the palace were also waiting, because the outcome of this envoy's mission would largely determine the situation of Liang Jun.The ministers in the palace watched the envoy enter the palace, but they already noticed something unusual.There were three envoys who went there, one chief envoy and two deputy envoys, but now only one came back.

"His Majesty!"

The only deputy envoy knelt on the ground, with an angry look on his face.

"Foreign barbarians don't know etiquette. The demon emperor even cooked and killed Sun Changshi, saying that he wanted your majesty to bathe and behead him!"

"Insanity!"

Huan Qing's angry voice spread throughout the hall, making Huan Li, who was beaming just now, look extremely pale.It was his idea to send an envoy to befriend Wu Hao. Now that the situation has turned into what it is now, he has to bear a lot of responsibility.

However, Huan Qing didn't pay attention to his thoughts. When his voice calmed down again, he asked: "What countermeasures do you have?"

Huan Zhong came out, held up his hands and said: "The current strategy is to mobilize a large army to defend against the demon clan. The demon emperor is going out in force this time, I am afraid it will not be good. The current strategy is to transfer the Zhu Jian back from Hedong County , join forces with Yangjian and Zheng Da to guard the northern border."

"But in this way, it is equivalent to delivering the entire Yongzhou into Yang Xian's hands."

Huan Qing's worried voice sounded, but Huan Gong came out from the side, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, if a war breaks out, Hedong County will be captured by Yang Xian sooner or later. Instead of this, our army should take the initiative to withdraw to Huokou. As long as we hold Huokou, then there will be no danger of thieves in Bingzhou, and if Bingzhou is not lost, the gods will naturally have no worries."

Unlike Huan Li, Liang Jun's two generals had already made specific military plans.

The Zhou army has already formed troops outside Hedong County, and a hundred thousand long-term troops are ready to attack. It is feared that they will cross the river to attack by autumn at the latest.Hedong County is a large county with a population of hundreds of thousands, but Zhu Jian's 10 righteous soldiers alone are not enough to defend it.

Avoiding excessive consumption and taking the initiative to withdraw troops will bring local advantages to Liang Jun.

Huan Qing nodded, but heard Huan Zhong continue to say: "Although the Wu and Chu armies are attached to the rebel army, they have no strength to advance northward with their combat power. Zhang Rui guards Yangdi, Huan Yi guards Luyang, Coupled with Zhao Gong's garrison in Xuzhou, it is enough to deal with the situation in the south. Yang Xian trained in the Hehuang area and restarted the Huangshui defense line, and he may have realized the threat of the monster race. To some extent, he It's the same threat we face. And Yang Xian is hypocritical. If the demon army really goes south, he will definitely not go eastward and follow the truth."

Because of Wu Chu's surrender, the Zhou army had already begun to encircle Daliang.However, the combat power of the Wu and Chu armies was not enough to complete this grand strategic offensive.

At this time, Liang Jun had completed military deployment to deal with the Great Zhou Dynasty.The real threats to Liang Jun come from Nanyang and Shendu, and the other is Hedong County.

Yang Xian has now integrated the military forces of Yong, Liang and Yizhou, so Hedong can be lost at any time.Abandoning Hedong County was to better deal with the Zhou army.

A hundred thousand troops were gathered in Shendu, and together with the Liang army in Bingzhou, they were enough to stop the Zhou army's offensive.Once the Zhou army moves eastward and the war evolves into a full-scale war between Zhou and Liang, the central army in Shenwucheng can also provide support at any time.

But once the monster clan goes south, Yang Xian will definitely not send a large army east, but will send troops north, and there will be a period of evenly matched confrontation between Zhou and Liang. This is the unanimous conclusion of Liang Ting.Therefore, facing the demon clan's offensive, Liang Jun was more than enough to deal with them.

"In this case, we should send an envoy to the Yan Kingdom, make a good relationship with Jingyun, and recruit the Youning cavalry as foreign aid."

Finally, Huan Qing made a conclusion.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"
