Become a feudal king from today

"Beidi army dispatched?"

At the same time that Chang Wei and others received news of Beidi's troops, Zhao Xu also learned about Beidi's movements from Xu Ke. read

This news made him breathe a sigh of relief.

He actually hoped that Beidi would take action earlier, so that Liu Fu and the others would not have to continue to create false impressions.

Now, the battle of Ningjin is finally about to begin.

"By the way, Your Highness, there is another happy event. I have news about Chai Wu." Xu Ke said with a smile.

"Really?" Zhao Xu was slightly surprised, but also happy at the same time.

Xu Ke nodded and said sternly: "Chaiwu is currently working as a slave in the home of Li Wancheng, the right councilor of Goryeo. According to his statement, he was captured by Goryeo merchants after escaping from Anseong Port and sold to Li Wancheng's home."

"It's really hard on him." Zhao Xu said, without Chai Wu, Ulanba's plan to go south from the sea became successful last time.

Therefore, Chai Wu had a great contribution to the victory at sea.

He could not turn a blind eye to such a hero, otherwise it would chill the hearts of the soldiers and he himself would feel bad about it.

"Fortunately, all the hardships are rewarded. After the Black Shark Trading Company started trading with Korea, and seeing that our goods were selling well in Korea, Korean officials sent their cronies to Treasure Island to purchase goods."

"Because Chai Wu was a Dasong man and understood the Dasong language, Li Wancheng asked Chai Wu to go to Treasure Island with his merchants and get in touch with us. After that, he returned to Korea." General Xu Ke The whole story was told.

Hearing this, Zhao Xu frowned and said, "Why, is he addicted to being a slave of Goryeo?"

Tsui Hark smiled awkwardly, "That's not true. What Chai Wu means is that we can take this opportunity to give him some help and let him win Li Wancheng's trust. In this way, he can inform Gao Li's movements at any time." Pass it back."

Zhao Xu nodded slowly. Although Goryeo was forced by the Black Shark pirates to agree to trade.

But at the moment, Gao Li and Bei Di still wear the same pair of trousers, and this situation cannot be changed in a short time.

Therefore, it is necessary to monitor Goryeo to prevent Goryeo from cooperating with Beidi to do anything detrimental to him.

Moreover, even if Goryeo surrenders to him in the future, it is necessary for the Four Houses to monitor Goryeo.

After all, the relationship between countries is like the weather in summer, it changes at any time.

"In that case, let's follow his wishes." Zhao Xu said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Tsui Hark responded.

Then, he told some other information, such as the training of the powerful clans' soldiers and horses, as well as the new policies promulgated by each powerful clan.

One piece of news about the Han family caught his attention.

"The Japanese established a business store in Qingcheng, Qizhou?" Zhao Xu looked surprised.

This Qingcheng is equivalent to Qingdao in contemporary Shandong.

The seawater conditions in Qingcheng are very good, so the Han family also has a dock in Qingcheng.

"According to the information Xiaguan received, it was the Wufeng Island pirates who established the bridge." Tsui Hark continued, "They did not build the commercial hall in the name of Wufeng Island, but built the commercial hall in the name of Japan. In Xiaguan's view , They want to use Japan’s name to scare His Highness.”

"That's true. Fighting against the Black Shark pirates is like fighting against wild dogs. If you fight against Japanese merchant ships, it's equivalent to starting a war against Japan." Zhao Xu's frown deepened.

In contemporary 1914, during World War I, Japan captured the entire Qingdao and Jiaoji Railway.

Germany was defeated, and the world powers, regardless of the fact that China was also the victor, forcibly handed over all rights and interests in Shandong to Japan.

When he thought of this, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

After the defeat of Wufeng Island, Japanese tentacles suddenly appeared in Qizhou.

No one would believe it if Japan was just doing business with the Han family.

More importantly, he knew that Japan in this parallel world was now in close contact with Western countries due to the establishment of the Watanabe Shogunate.

There are many praises for surpassing the isolation of the country in terms of firearms and technology.

Especially Dasong is on the verge of falling apart right now.

It is impossible for this aggressive island country to have other ideas.

After all, they had already taken the first step and occupied half of Yizhou.

And the Yizhou of Dasong is no other place, it is the Ryukyu Island that Zheng Chenggong recovered in the contemporary era.

"It's just that I can't figure out Japan's intention for the time being. Is it really just a trade deal with the Han family, or something else." Tsui Hark raised his eyebrows.

"Don't alert the enemy for the time being. Send all the people who have withdrawn from Ningjin Dusi to Qizhou and keep an eye on them. I want to find out what Japan wants to do?" Zhao Xu said.

If Ningjin Dusi can be captured this time, there will be no need for people from the Fourth Academy to stay there.

Moreover, at present, everyone in Dasong regards Beidi as Dasong's mortal enemy.

In fact, they only made this judgment out of historical inertia.

It is believed that the enemies of the Central Plains Dynasty came from the north.

But clearly times have changed.

The threats facing Dasong will not only come from the north, but also from the sea, and even from all directions.

Seeing King Yan's serious expression, Xu Ke was slightly surprised.

I don’t understand why King Yan always makes a face every time he mentions Japan.

But he still said yes.

"If it weren't for me, maybe Dasong would be your delicacy, but now that I'm here, as long as you dare to open your mouth and bite, I will not only break your teeth, but even tear your mouth apart." Zhao Xu groaned angrily. A sound.

Immediately, he put the matter aside for the time being.

The current focus is Ning Jin Dusi, he can't distract his energy yet.

Thinking of this, he called Chang Wei over and asked him to go to Yanguan to coordinate the war situation.

This time, he will not personally participate in the war.

In his opinion, Chang Wei is enough to cope with this war.

He wants to stay in Yancheng and continue to tinker with Wang Chong on the application of steam engines.

The application of steam engines is actually a battlefield.

Wars are fought for money and food.

Only by improving the productivity of Yanzhou can we provide more support to the army.

"Remember to be bold and careful on the battlefield. Secondly, the way of war is to be treacherous." Zhao Xu reminded Chang Wei.

Chang Wei clasped his fists, "Your Highness just needs to wait for good news from me in Yancheng."

This is not the first time he has led troops to fight.

Now there is only the excitement before the war.

Zhao Xu nodded, Muller Hongzhen was waiting for news of victory in Jincheng, and he was waiting for news of victory in Yancheng.

Who will win in the end depends on their respective abilities.

After the peace talks, didn't Muller Hongzhen clamor to compete with him?

This time, the winner will be decided.

The two discussed the tactical details on the battlefield again, and Chang Wei left.

At this time, Zhao Xu sent a letter of order to Zhou Yi, asking him to obey Chang Wei's dispatch.

That night, Chang Wei and the generals led the troops to set off at night.

Two days later, they arrived at Yan Pass.

Seeing Mo Yu, Chang Wei patted him on the shoulder and asked about the layout of Yan Pass while heading towards the north wall.

Climbing the wall, Chang Wei looked down.

It almost seemed that Yan Pass had snowed.

Five miles away from Yan Pass, the camps of the Northern Di were endless.
