"The legacy of Maudun?"

Shang Ji was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his brows immediately furrowed.

Mao Dun is a well-deserved overlord of the grassland, in history he destroyed Donghu, drive the Yue clan (here pronounced yue, zhi), to the south to capture Hetao and other places, conquered Loulan, Wusun, Hujie and other more than 20 countries, controlled most of the Western Regions. So that the Xiongnu have a vast territory from the Great Wall of Qin in the south, to Lake Baikal in the north, to the Liao River in the east, and to the green mountains in the west.

Liu Bang led an army of 300,000 to attack the Xiongnu in the north, but in the end he was trapped in Baishan Mountain, returned in embarrassment, and had to adopt a policy of peace and proximity to pacify the Xiongnu.

During Mao Dun's lifetime, the Xiongnu had always been on the dominant side in the Hun-Han War, and this situation was not changed until the two Mobei expeditions after Emperor Wu succeeded to the throne.

It was precisely because of Maudun that for the first time in East Asia, nomadic peoples strategically suppressed agrarian peoples.

Although the disadvantages in the early days of the Han-Hungarian War were directly related to the withering of the people's livelihood and the weakening of the national strength caused by the war that lasted for many years in the country, no one dared to underestimate Maudun's ability to conquer the entire steppe and establish a huge empire with an incomparably vast territory.

According to the setting in the beacon fire, Mao Dun himself is likely to be an SS-level super general, if Kebi can really get the inheritance of Mao Dun, then it will be a big trouble!

"Ahem!"

Seeing Shang Ji frowning, Chen Guan coughed lightly at the right time to attract everyone's attention.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chen Guan continued: "Of course, the matter of obtaining the Maodun inheritance is just a self-proclaimed claim by Kebineng, and there is a great suspicion of boasting and publicity. However, according to the latest news from Thousand Illusions, Kebi can indeed show far more than ordinary abilities in the previous decisive battle.

Therefore, we suspect that Kebineng did get some powerful inheritance, but it should not be Maudun himself, or the inheritance is incomplete. The strength he showed was far from being worthy of the name Maudun! ”

Hearing this, Shang Ji nodded, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and asked, "Increasing the support for the Budugen, can it prolong the resistance time of the Budugen?" ”

"I'm afraid not!"

This time it was Liu Yi who answered, only to see him frown and say: "Budugen's great rout is not just a lack of strength, even if Kebi can have Xianbei Shamanism join, even if Kebi can get six strong special troops, but in terms of strength, he has not achieved the advantage of crushing the line.

The main reason why Budugen has collapsed again and again is that the internal military turmoil in Xianbei in the west. At present, many people regard Kebi as the reincarnation of Maodun and will lead Xianbei to a new prosperous era. In many cases, the tribe that originally belonged to Budugen surrendered without a fight immediately after the arrival of the Kebineng army, and at this time, no matter how much support we gave Budugen, it was a meat bun and a dog to fight and never return! ”

After listening to Liu Yi's story, Shang Ji's brows furrowed even deeper.

This is really not a good opportunity to attack Xianbei!

According to the original plan, it would be Shang Ji and Lu Bu who would attack from the east and west to destroy Xianbei together. Shang Ji is good to say here that the war preparations have been very good, and only if necessary, it is completely possible to send troops within five days.

But Lu Bu was in trouble. Lu Bu's army training has only begun for two months. The equipment he customized here in Shang Ji has only completed about two-thirds of the delivery, and the training progress of the entire army has only just passed halfway.

At this time, he forcibly attacked, and Lu Bu was under a lot of pressure.

Of course, it is even worse if you don't fight. Once Kebi can really unify the entire grassland, Xianbei is another big problem! What's more, Kebineng has a new inheritance, and the threat level has skyrocketed.

"Everyone!" Shang Ji tapped his fingers on the table and asked in a condensed voice, "What do you teach me about the current situation?" ”

There was silence in the hall for a few breaths, and then Zhao Yun got up and said: "Back to the lord, the last general thinks that we need to get in touch with General Lu of Bingzhou, ask General Lu about the specific situation there, and also find out General Lu's opinion on this matter." ”

"Secondly, whether or not we send troops to Xianbei immediately, we must strengthen the defense of the northern region. With our relationship with Xianbei, Kebi will definitely trouble us after solving the big problem of Budugen, and we have to guard against it! ”

Well, Zhao Yun's point is very reasonable, although Kebi can compare the envoy of Pingzhou to his father when he can trade with Kebi, but it is impossible for Kebineng's mind not to see the tricks made by Shangji.

Before, due to the situation, he had to rely on the materials provided by Pingzhou to swallow his anger, and once he had enough strength, Kebineng would definitely retaliate fiercely.

"What Zilong said is reasonable, the order will go down, all the counties adjacent to Xianbei will be on guard, and Bai Shou will pay close attention to the movements of the Xianbei army, and report it immediately once the Xianbei army has a big move south!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"Uncle Wu, take my communication stone, get in touch with Feng Xian, inform him of the information we get, ask Feng Xian's opinion, and come back to report as soon as it's over!" Saying that, Shang Ji untied his share of the communication stone from his waist and threw it to Guo Biao.

At the beginning, in order to facilitate contact, Shang Ji gave Lu Bu a special communication stone, and the communication target was limited to Shang Ji himself.

"Yes, my lord!"

Guo Biao hurriedly took the communication stone carefully, got up and left the hall.

"Dare to ask the general, if General Lu is unable to march into Xianbei, what should we do?" Xi Zhi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly got up and asked.

"Hit! I can tell you now that no matter what the result is in Fengxian, I will send troops to Xianbei! ”

Shang Ji said in an unusually firm tone.

In Shang Ji's original strategic estimate, Xianbei will no longer be a threat after this tragic civil war, who knows that Kebi can step on dog shit, luck against the sky, and the threat level will skyrocket.

Before, he regarded Xianbei as a fat pig, and planned to hunt the grassland with Lu Bu. Even if Xianbei's strength has skyrocketed now, Shang Ji has lost the capital to swallow Xianbei, but he still has to fight. Take advantage of Kebi's ability to gain a foothold and give him a stick first, and he must not sit back and watch Kebi grow up.

"Good!"

Xi Zhicai shouted, got up and said: "Since this is the case, there are only two situations, one is to eat the whole Xianbei according to the predetermined goal." The other is that our strength is not good, so we retreat to the next best thing, and the main purpose is to weaken the development potential of Xianbei. ”

"In that case, why don't we gather more allies? Why is it limited to working with General Lu? Xi Zhicai looked directly at Shang Ji and asked rhetorically.

"Huh?"

Shang Ji was stunned by the question, thought for a while, and asked tentatively, "Mr. refers to Ding Yuan and Gongsun Zhan?" ”

"Yes, or not exactly!"

"Gongsun Zan and Ding Yuan are naturally potential allies, and their territory also borders Xianbei, and after Xianbei becomes bigger, they themselves will be attacked by the enemy. In addition, as far as your subordinates know, you have a close relationship with Lu Gong, and there are millions of elite and armored soldiers under Lu Gong's command, why don't you ask Lu Gong for support? ”

"Gongsun Chan and Ding Yuan have always been hostile to us, will they agree to the alliance? In addition, since the general's wedding, Lu Gong is not as good as before, and it's hard to say whether Lu Gong can support me! Shang Ji said with some embarrassment.

"The lord is thinking a lot, let's talk about the two generals Gongsun Chan and Ding Yuan first. General Gongsun's attitude towards foreign races is quite similar to that of the lord, and he is hostile to Pingzhou only because Pingzhou has shown too much edge a few days ago, which makes General Gongsun feel threatened. As long as the general shows sincerity, General Gongsun will definitely support the lord. What's more, once the strategy Xianbei is successful, the benefits will be unimaginably large. The two of them will understand under the huge profits! ”

"Although Lu Gong has a misunderstanding of the lord, the Northern Expedition Xianbei is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and with Lu Gong's heart, he will definitely not care about the previous little mustard. In addition, we can also take a roundabout way and let General Lu go to Lu Gong. Lu Gong is the superior of General Lu, and now that General Lu is facing the threat of Xianbei, does Lu Gong, as the pastor of the state, want to help General Lu more? ”

"With the strength of the five of us, even if Kebi can really get the inheritance of Maudun, what is there to fear?" In the end, Xi Zhicai snorted coldly and said proudly.

Shang Ji thought about what Xi Zhicai said for a while, and found that it made sense.

Ding Yuan and Gongsun Zhan joined forces against themselves, because they were worried that Pingzhou's westward expansion would encroach on their territory. But God is pitiful, Shang Ji really has no intention of expanding westward in a short period of time.

In his strategic planning, the first thing is to take Xianbei, and then to deal with the national war wholeheartedly. After the war of nations, the next target was North Korea.

After getting North Korea, it may be Gongsun Chan and Ding Yuan's turn.

Even if everything went well, it would be five years before Shang Ji, Gongsun Zhan and Ding Yuan met each other. Before that, it is completely possible to make some superficial concessions to lower the two of them to be wary of themselves.

In other words, if it weren't for the too much pressure on Shang Ji's side, Gongsun Chan and Ding Yuan might have fought a long time ago!

As for Lu Zhi, with his character of serving the country and the people, it is really possible to pay money and people to help Lu Bu fight against Xianbei.

"What Mr. said is very true, in order to reflect my sincerity in Pingzhou, I would have thought that it was necessary to send heavyweights to Youzhou to lobby Gongsun Zan and Ding Yuan in person. Looking at the whole Pingzhou, I would have thought that only Mr. and my brother could take on this important responsibility, I wonder if Mr. would like to take a trip? ”

"The general's subordinates dare not obey!" Xi Zhicai smiled slightly and arched his hand.

"Okay, the military situation is urgent, so please ask my husband and brother to leave immediately. What are the conditions of Gongsun Chan and the others, you can discuss whether to agree to it or not, and you don't need to ask me! ”

"The last general (subordinate) obeys!"

Liu Yi and Xi Zhicai got up and saluted, and then left the hall to prepare for the mission to Youzhou.

"Hongzhu, if we go to war now, will Pingzhou have enough material reserves? How long can a war last? Will it have a serious impact on the development of Pingzhou? ”

After seeing the two leave, Shang Ji shifted his gaze to Deng Yan again. It is foreseeable that this must be a tragic big tent, and the heritage of Pingzhou is not deep, and Shang Ji needs to touch his old bottom first.
