Iron Dynasty

The green grass was stained with blood, and a faint smell of blood filled the air.

The smell of blood seems to have awakened the barbarism and rage in the bones of the barbarians. They temporarily forgot the dead soldiers in front of them, and they only had the illusion of slaughtering the people of Da Yu.

"Head of the flag, have we been enduring it all this time?" a ten thousand chief asked.

Gurtai said: "Of course we have to bear it. Now Shanhaiguan is in the hands of the Great Yu State Army. Only when there is chaos in the Great Yu State, we can take advantage of the Liang King to take advantage of the army to destroy the Great Yu State once and for all. Then we will die. The warriors of Great Yu will pay thousands of times the lives of the people of Da Yu. When that day comes, I must eat King Qi alive."

Having said this, Gultai's eyes were full of tyranny.

Glancing bitterly at the direction of Shanhaiguan, Gultai Lema headed towards the tribe. He thought that the cavalry of Shanhaiguan would attack their tribe again.

But judging from the current situation, this army seems to be just to kill the scout team.

Since Beishan was defeated in the Battle of Jizhou, the Huyantuo tribe has been reused again, and the Jiwu bones in Datai have become more and more reused. Seeing that the seat of Tian Khan must be his.

Because of this, he not only got rid of the charge of the Battle of Cangzhou, but Wu Shugu also sent 50,000 elite cavalry under his command, in order to let him guard the grassland outside Shanhaiguan and prevent King Qi’s army from deepening. The grassland poses a threat to the golden tent.

The other barbarian generals looked in the direction where Gurtai was leaving, sighed deeply, and asked the other soldiers to bring back the body of the scout, and the barbarian cavalry moved away like a torrent.

Outside the ambush location, Youzhou scouts are watching the movements of the barbarians with binoculars.

In the past, after fighting with the barbarians, the barbarian cavalry always yelled at Shanhaiguan, but today these barbarian cavalry is a bit abnormal.

Seeing this, the scouts turned to Shanhaiguan, and they wanted to tell Lei Ming the news.

Shanhaiguan, Dudufu.

Lei Ming was writing the battle report. After a while, a scout came to report, telling Lei Ming the unusual actions of the barbarian.

"This is strange, when did the barbarians change their temperament?" Lei Ming frowned, and then he also wrote the news to the report and sent them to Qingzhou.

Three days later, the battle report from Youzhou arrived in Qingzhou smoothly, and Niu Ben, who received the news, sent the battle report to the Qi Palace as soon as possible.

At the same time, he and Pang Yukun went to the palace again to discuss the matter.

"His Royal Highness, this time Thunder killed three hundred barbarian scouts outside the pass, but the difference is that this time the barbarians did not provoke before the pass as they did in the past." Niu Ben said.

Xiao Ming has been busy with Qingzhou's government affairs these days. After discussing this plan, the three people thought that the barbarians would clamor outside the pass for revenge and lure Guan Ning Tieqi to fight, but they obviously predicted this point wrong.

"This is really strange. Did the barbarians learn to be a tortoise with their heads down?" Xiao Ming said suspiciously. Although the barbarians were driven outside the pass, the barbarians were more arrogant outside the pass than inside the pass, and they often sent people to detain the soldiers insulting the city. , This kind of radical method has been used since the fall of Shanhaiguan.

And every time thunder goes out to fight the autumn breeze, the barbarians will only become more annoyed, and sometimes even assume a posture of attacking Shanhaiguan. It is a real pleasure to play with thunder.

"The barbarians are brutal and tyrannical in nature, but they are also very cunning. Maybe they are just to set a trap for Guanning Iron Cavalry to go deeper to eliminate Guanning Iron Cavalry." Pang Yukun said.

Niu Ben said: "With the understanding of the barbarians by the end, they must be plotting something. The reason why the barbarians are so arrogant and reckless these years is that they think they can easily annex the Great Yu country, and now they have repeatedly suffered losses in our hands. , The barbarians estimate that they will use conspiracy and tricks as before. Shanhaiguan was breached from the inside by the barbarians."

Xiao Ming nodded when he heard the words, "In this case, we have to strengthen our defenses. Now that the father is seriously ill, the court may fall into chaos at any time. What this king fears most is that the barbarians take the opportunity to enter."

Niu Ben continued: "His Royal Highness, in this case, we must accelerate the advancement of the fortress strategy. Next, we will focus on equipping the Youzhou Army so that the Youzhou Army can form combat power."

Pang Yukun echoed and said: "Yes, Your Highness, the next official suggested that your Highness suspend the expansion of overseas. Now the sea route is in our hands. Only Yue Yun needs to maintain the route. You can't fight on two lines at this time, otherwise you will be afraid of us. There is no way to deal with it. Although the old saying goes, even if the country is big, it will die if it is warlike. As soon as the end of the battle begins, the people’s livelihood will be withered. The three years of hard work and hard work of your Highness will probably be ruined. Therefore, your Highness must not be able to get angry. Combining the vertical and horizontal strategy, His Royal Highness handled this Dutch matter wonderfully. If the war can be eased, the war can be eased to provide time for the development of Qingzhou."

Xiao Ming deeply believed it. Now as the master of the country, he naturally became more and more white. He didn't dare to say that I could beat a hundred of them. It was his own death.

Even in modern times, the United States relies on many allies instead of fighting alone.

After thinking about this, Xiao Ming said: "Pang Changshi’s statement is the same as that of Zhan Xingchang. This king has his own measure in his heart. From now on, this king should implement the strategy of unity and verticality. Now we should act according to plan. Send this battle report to the court, and the father can have one more day, and we have one more day to prepare."

The two looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

In the presence of Niu Ben and Pang Yukun~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Xiao Ming personally wrote a memorial. On the memorial, Xiao Ming deliberately exaggerated the battle between Shanhaiguan barbarians and Guanning cavalry, and at the same time asked Empress Zhao and Prince Zhao to be careful. Take care of Xiao Wenxuan.

After preparing the memorial in place, Xiao Ming handed it to Pang Yukun and sent him to Chang'an.

Then the three discussed the current situation, and then they went back.

Sending away Pang Yukun and Niu Ben, Xiao Ming looked to the northwest. That was the territory of King Yong. Now he was most worried about coal and iron, both of which were abundant in King Yong's fief.

If Dayu is really caught in civil strife, the first thing he does is to ensure the source of these two materials, otherwise it will seriously affect the development of Qingzhou. As for saltpeter, he is not too worried now. According to Claire, although they and the United Kingdom The war started, but the trade did not stop. They could obtain high-quality saltpeter from India.

As for sulfur, because of the shortage of Japanese resources, I am afraid that I have to sell them to him in exchange for other resources.

He was meditating, when a servant suddenly walked into the main hall from outside and said to him: "His Royal Highness, the craftsman from the Department of Weapons has brought it to your Highness."
