Iron Dynasty

Chapter 508

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

The smell of blood seemed to awaken the savagery and ferocity in the bones of the barbarians. They temporarily forgot the dead soldiers in front of them, and only had the fantasy of slaughtering the people of Dayu in their minds.

The head of the flag, have we endured it all this time? asked a ten thousand commander.

Guertai said: Of course you have to be patient. Now Shanhaiguan is in the hands of the army of the Great Yu Kingdom. Only when there is chaos in the Great Yu Kingdom can we take advantage of King Liang's borrowing of troops to destroy the Great Yu Kingdom once and for all, and then we will die. The fighters of this kingdom will pay for the lives of the Great Yu Kingdom thousands of times, and when that day comes, I will definitely eat the King Qi alive.

Speaking of this, Gultai's eyes were full of tyranny.

Glancing at the direction of Shanhaiguan angrily, Gulthel horse went in the direction of the tribe. He thought that the cavalry of Shanhaiguan would attack their tribe again.

But from the current situation, it seems that this army is only to kill this team of scouts.

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

Because of this, he not only got rid of the crime of the Battle of Cangzhou, but Wu Shugu also dispatched 50,000 elite cavalry under his command, in order to let him guard the grassland outside Shanhaiguan and prevent King Qi's army from going deep. Grassland, a threat to the Golden Horde.

The other barbarian generals looked in the direction where Gultai left, sighed deeply, and asked other soldiers to bring the scout's body back, and the barbarian cavalry gradually drifted away like a torrent.

Outside the ambush location, the Youzhou scouts were observing the movements of the barbarians with binoculars.

In the past, after fighting with the barbarians, the barbarian cavalry would always yell for a while before Shanhaiguan, but today these barbarian cavalry is a bit abnormal.

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

Shanhaiguan, Governor's House.

Lei Ming was writing the battle report. After a while, a scout came to report and told Lei Ming about the unusual actions of the barbarians.

It's strange, when did the barbarians change their temper. Lei Ming frowned, and then he also wrote this news into the battle report and the police rushed to Qingzhou.

Three days later, the battle report from Youzhou successfully arrived in Qingzhou, and Niu Ben, who got the news, immediately sent the battle report to Qi Wangfu.

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

His Royal Highness, this time Lei Ming killed three hundred barbarian scouts outside the pass, but the difference is that this time the barbarians did not come to the pass to provoke them as before, Niu Ben said.

Xiao Ming has been busy with government affairs in Qingzhou for the past few days. After the three people discussed this plan, they thought that the barbarians would definitely go outside the customs for revenge and clamor to lure Guan Ning into battle, but they obviously made a mistake in predicting this.

It's really strange. Did the barbarians learn to be tortoises? Xiao Ming said doubtfully. Although the barbarians were driven out of the pass by him, the barbarians were more arrogant outside the pass than inside the pass. , this kind of radical method they have used from the fall of Shanhaiguan to the present.

And every time Lei Ming goes out to fight the autumn wind, the barbarians will only become more and more annoyed, and sometimes even assume a posture of attacking Shanhaiguan.

Barbarians are savage and tyrannical by nature, but they are also very cunning. Maybe they just set up traps to let the Guan Ning Iron Cavalry go deeper and destroy the Guan Ning Iron Cavalry. Pang Yukun said.

Niu Ben said: With the understanding of the barbarians at the end, they must be planning some kind of conspiracy. The reason why the barbarians have been so arrogant and reckless these years is that they think they can easily annex the Great Yu Kingdom, and now they are often at a loss in our hands. , the barbarians are expected to use intrigues and tricks as before, when Shanhaiguan was breached by the barbarians from the inside.

Xiao Ming nodded when he heard the words, In this case, we must strengthen our defenses more and more. Now that the father is seriously ill, the court situation may fall into chaos at any time. What this king is most afraid of is that the barbarians will take the opportunity to enter.

Niu Ben continued: Your Highness, since this is the case, we must speed up the promotion of the fortress strategy. Next, we must focus on equipping the Youzhou Army so that the Youzhou Army can form a combat force.

Pang Yukun echoed and said: Yes, Your Highness, the lower official suggested that His Highness suspend overseas development. Now that the sea route is in our hands, we only need Yue Yun to maintain the route. It is impossible to deal with it at all. The old saying goes that although the country is big, warlike will surely perish. When the war begins, people's livelihood will be in ruins, and the accumulation of His Highness's hard work in the past three years may be in vain. Therefore, His Highness must not be useless. Combining the vertical and horizontal strategy, His Royal Highness has handled the matter of the Netherlands wonderfully, if the war can be alleviated, the war must be alleviated to provide time for the development of Qingzhou.

Xiao Ming took it seriously. Now that he is the lord of the feudal kingdom, he naturally realizes this point more and more. He dare not say that I can beat a hundred of them. This is his own death.

Even in contemporary times, the United States relies on many allies, not alone.

After he figured this out, Xiao Ming said: Pang Changshi's statement is the same as Zhan Xingchang's. This king has his own measure. From now on, this king should implement a combination of vertical and horizontal strategies, and now we should act according to the plan. Sending this battle report to the imperial court will give us one more day to prepare.”

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

In front of Niu Ben and Pang Yukun, Xiao Ming personally wrote a memorial. In the memorial, Xiao Ming deliberately exaggerated the battle between the barbarians and Guan Ning's iron cavalry outside Shanhaiguan. At the same time, he asked the Queen Zhao and the prince to take good care of Xiao Wenxuan.

After preparing this memorial, Xiao Ming handed it over to Pang Yukun, who sent the police to Chang'an.

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

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

If the Great Yu country really falls into civil strife, the first thing he will do 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 British The war started, but the trade did not stop, they could get high quality saltpeter from India.

As for the sulphur, I am afraid I have to sell these materials to him in exchange for other resources due to the shortage of resources in the Japanese country.

He was thinking about it when a servant suddenly came to the main hall from the outside and said to him, Your Highness, the craftsman from the Equipment Division has brought a bell to His Highness.
