Xiao Ming smiled, and he was familiar with Xiao Wenxuan's side, Concubine Zhen knew the court better than him, as Concubine Zhen said, there are contradictions between officials of any dynasty.
This problem is also inevitable for him, and how to use this contradiction to make the government more peaceful is what he should do.
It is precisely for this reason that he has not let up his mouth on the issue of the nine assistants of the cabinet, in order to let the two groups of officials turn the contradictions into the driving force for handling government affairs, so that the operation of internal affairs can be smoother.
At the same time, officials who do not like each other can also play a role in mutual supervision, that is, just like the ruling party and the opposition party, they can find out the corrupt officials in the other camp in the midst of quarrels.
"Okay, think about it yourself, Yue'er and I went out to watch a play, and it is said that there is a new play coming out in this theater." Concubine Zhen just passed by the main hall and came in to have a look.
Xiao Ming nodded and said to Qian Dafu, who was following Concubine Zhen: "Steward Qian, pay attention to the safety of the concubine." ”
"Your Highness, there will be no problem with the old slave." Qian Dafu said with a smile.
With the support of Liuli, the three of them slowly walked out of the main hall, and Xiao Ming stretched his waist and walked outside.
In the past five months, he has not had a day of leisure, teaching grassroots generals, supervising the production of various industries, compiling books, training recruits, and at the same time, a good harvest before the year has made the granary of the feudal country also become solid.
And Yue Yun's return from the Three Mountains Kingdom carrying 800,000 stones of grain made Xiao Ming's confidence even stronger.
Everything was gradually completed in his efforts, Xiao Ming looked at Jinling City again, it was time to do it now, he still had a lot of enemies, and he couldn't keep consuming with King Wei.
And the sooner you take Wei, the more you can reduce your losses, and the last time King Wei's scorched earth policy in Yangzhou gave him a lot of headaches.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and after the New Year, the weather gradually warmed up, and the snow on the road melted, at this time, Xiao Ming hurriedly ordered Lu Fei and Ye Qingyun to return to Qingzhou from the cities they guarded.
After the order was issued, Ye Qingyun arrived in Qingzhou by sea, and Lu Fei arrived earlier than Ye Qingyun.
After the two came back, Xiao Mingxuan and Niu Ben went to the main hall to discuss together.
"Your Highness, are you going to do it?" Lu Fei asked excitedly.
Xiao Ming's expression was solemn, and he said: "That's right, the half-year period has arrived, and now it's time to take Wei Di in one fell swoop, but how are you two training the recruits?" ”
Ye Qingyun said: "Your Highness, the recruits trained by the last general can participate in the battle at any time. ”
"There is no problem with the recruits of the last general." Lu Fei is very confident, and now the recruits he recruited have not only completed training, but also have standard equipment.
Xiao Ming nodded, and then he stood up and faced the map on the wall of the main hall, and said: "Lu Fei, after you go back, you will be responsible for feints to attack Chuzhou, Ye Qingyun, Yue Yun will help you go straight to Jinling City, capture the thief Xianqin King, if you can directly capture Jinling City, Wei will inevitably be in chaos, so it will be easy to capture other states and counties." ”
When the two of them heard this, their eyes flashed with a strange light, if this plan succeeded, Wei Di would all be incorporated into the territory of the feudal state, and a rich Wei Di plus the musket team, King Zhao would not be their opponent.
"Yes, Your Highness." Lu Fei and Ye Qingyun stood up at the same time and saluted Xiao Ming.
At this time, Niu Ben said: "Lu Fei, after you go back, you will send troops to Chuzhou on February 6, and Ye Qingyun will send troops to Jinling City on February 15 after you go back." ”
The two nodded.
After setting a battle plan against Wei, the entire feudal state began to operate, and Li San's secret guards continued to transmit information to the army to Wei, and at the same time, a batch of grain and grass set off from Yizhou and arrived in Pengzhou.
After Lu Fei returned to Pengzhou, he immediately led 45,000 people to Chuzhou, and as soon as the army moved, the spies of Wei quickly spread the news to Jinling City.
"What! Lu Fei's army is marching towards Chuzhou? In the palace of King Wei, King Wei almost jumped up from his chair.
"Your Highness, it's true, this time the Southern Expeditionary Army has forty or fifty thousand people coming to Chuzhou, and there are more than 100 artillery pieces alone, this King of Qi is ready to completely destroy us." A wealthy family from Chuzhou trembled.
King Wei's face was extremely ugly, "Xiao Ming, you bastard, what a bullshit truce contract, this is a trap, it's a trap!" ”
The Wei officials in the main hall were all terrified, this Chuzhou was only three hundred miles away from Jinling City, and now they had no way to retreat.
Xiao Han's face is even more ugly than that of King Wei, he has never been a vassal king for a day, and now he is about to lose the country, how can he be willing, thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "Father, Xiao Ming must be disgusted that we have too little silver to compensate, we can continue to cede the land and pay compensation." ”
King Wei said angrily: "Idiot, now Xiao Ming wants not land or silver, he wants the life of this king, it is useless to give him anything, I have been running Wei for more than 20 years, I didn't expect to make clothes for others today." ”
Sitting down slowly, King Wei looked crazy: "Xiao Ming wants a rich Wei land to dominate the world, this king just won't give him this opportunity, you now immediately notify the generals of Chuzhou to burn everything that can be burned in the city, as well as Shouzhou, Taizhou, Suzhou, and Jinling City, all things are burned!" ”
"Your Highness, by all means."
"No, Your Highness."
“……”
The ministers in the main hall shouted one after another, Xiao Han was also cold in his heart, he looked at his father, at this time he was not the once powerful King of Wei but a madman.
"Father, if everything is burned, we will definitely die without a place to be buried, and now there is only one way to cut the land." Xiao Han persuaded hard that he was willing to exchange all the cities in Wei for the prosperity and wealth of Jinling City.
"Shut up, this king knows that he shouldn't have compromised at the beginning, it's all you soft bones, since Xiao Ming is working hard, this king will fight with him, if any of you dare to say a word again, don't blame this king for being ruthless under the sword."
With that, King Wei suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist, his eyes widening angrily.
King Wei's fierce appearance shocked Xiao Han and all the officials, they had never seen King Wei so fierce.
Glancing at everyone, King Wei said: "Xiao Ming deceived people too much, you quickly gathered the family tribe, this king doesn't believe that the 400,000 army of Wei Di can't beat him Xiao Ming." ”
Xiao Han and the officials glanced at each other, and in the past six months, the king of Wei gathered the soldiers of various state capitals, and at the same time increased the garrison of Jinling City to 200,000 people, all of which were to deal with Xiao Ming's threat.
But everyone didn't expect that Xiao Ming would attack immediately after the New Year.
