Chapter 911: Change
Gao Yuyao really sent people to Tanzhou, the several important roads selected by the Wei State are easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you really want to fight, it is not that you can't beat it, but the casualties are too great, Gao Yuyao doesn't care so much about how many people die, but she cares about the weakening of her own strength.
Since there is something to be used, what about it?
It's just that this matter was not explicitly stated to Zhou Shaoyu, and Zhou Shaoyu still learned the news through Xiao Qiao. I can only pretend that I don't know.
What Gao Yuyao didn't expect was that Tanzhou really sent troops, which is also a sure thing, no matter what, Zhou Shaoyu is also in her hands now, it is impossible to be disobedient. The soldiers of Tanzhou are also very powerful, and they did not contribute to the work, 20,000 horses, all the way like a bamboo, occupying the land of two counties one after another.
It's just that what makes Gao Yuyao depressed is that Wei did not choose to transfer the front-line troops because of the fire in the rear, in other words, the imperial army's army is still stuck in place and has not moved.
At the same time, news finally came from the north, the Turks rose again, invaded Youzhou, and in a short period of time, Youzhou fell, leaving only one city to be guarded by Youwang. Due to the fact that a large number of people were evacuated, with the food and grass materials in the city, I am afraid that it will not last long.
This news shocked the world, hasn't it been driven back to the grassland? Even their khans are dead, and they invade again so quickly?
It wasn't until the summer was about to enter that Zhou Shaoyu got the news that Ainur was already in Taiyuan, and said what happened before and after.
This made Zhou Shaoyu a little puzzled, it was nothing for Ashina Huqin to reunify the grassland, but it was surprising to start a war in such a hurry, judging from the current situation, Ashina Huqin was obviously occupying, not plundering.
You must know that after the Turks experienced invasions and civil wars, the population consumption was huge, and the proportion of young and strong people was already very low, so why did they have to ignore the invasion? The population of the Turks is not too large. It is estimated that all the young and strong people today add up, that is, five or six hundred thousand?
It seems to be a lot, but it is impossible to dispatch them all, otherwise the young and strong will all die, and the Turks will basically be finished. It hasn't been able to recover for hundreds of years, and this is still without any changes.
It is a fact that the management does not understand that people have invaded. After the occupation of Ashina Huqin, a completely different policy from Ashina Falcon was issued.
Ashina Huqin divided the Turkic people into superior people, and the Liang people were inferior, and each superior person could at least be divided into a few inferior people, which could be disposed of at will, but it was not allowed to kill indiscriminately, and if anyone's inferior person died unexpectedly, then the superior person would also be punished.
In addition to this, the inferior could also establish military merits by following their lords, thus attaining the status of a middle man, that is, being freed from slavery, and also having other rewards, such as gold and silver women. And its owner will be rewarded with it.
And those who are indeed talented are directly middle-class, and it is not impossible to even be promoted to the top class without exception.
After all, there are still a lot of soft bones in this world, whether they are willing or not, the current number of Turkic troops is 150,000, but every time they go out, the actual number is 300,000 or more!
In a short period of time, Ashina Huqin has formed a force that cannot be ignored, not only that, Ashina Huqin also can't wait to directly ascend the throne as the emperor, create a khanate, and set up the era name as Shiwu.
Originally, Gao Yuyao didn't need to be in a hurry, after all, there was still a Jizhou separated from Youzhou if he wanted to invade the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, but the latest news at present, the Turks didn't pay attention to the trapped Youwang at all, and had begun to attack Jizhou, and the latter was obviously a little unbearable. Once Jizhou is broken, then the next one is likely to be Xuzhou.
The reason is also simple, Bingzhou has been destroyed, if Ashina Huqin has that mind, he will attack Bingzhou instead of Youzhou at the beginning, in other words, Ashina Huqin does not care about the revenge of killing his father, but also cares about whether the land he invades is rich and prosperous, and whether the population can prosper.
At this point, it is good news for Zhou Shaoyu, as far as the current merger of states is concerned, it is impossible to block these many troops, not to mention that Li Xiuning also brought some troops outside. However, sooner or later, we still have to face it, and we can't have a fluke mentality, but unfortunately, at present, Zhou Shaoyu can't contact Bingzhou as soon as possible, so he can only rely on Xu Miaojin and them to deal with it themselves.
In contrast, the most worrying thing is Huofeng, the Jizhou rebels have long taken refuge in this empress, and after a period of operation, I dare not say that she is absolutely loyal, at least Jizhou is basically under her control, so she has spent a lot of effort on this.
Just after settling down a little bit, ready to take further control and make other arrangements, it turned out that the Turks came!
Although Yuzhou is large, half of the state can be worth a small state, but in the end, it is half of it, if Jizhou falls, it will be basically determined that there is no drama with the half of Huofeng. Xiao Sister-in-law in the west, Sun Shouren in the south, Liang court in the east, and then add a northern Turk, one word, end!
She wanted to support one or two, but she couldn't stand it and was confronting Xiao Jiao at the moment, and now it seems that there is only peace to be negotiated, otherwise Jizhou will wait to be completely destroyed. However, Xiao Auntie's attitude is also clear, it is okay to stop the war, this girl is not a person who does not know the overall situation, but there is only one point, it doesn't matter so much if Huofeng gives up being the emperor even if he claims to be the king.
This is taken for granted in Xiao Jiwen's opinion, in her heart, Da Liang is the most orthodox, and there can only be one emperor, that is Emperor Da Liang, and the fact that Huo Feng is the emperor has already made her unhappy.
But Huofeng can't do this, the time to be called emperor is not very short, even if it is fake, the emperor is the emperor, the existence of the backbone of a country, and the self-deposed emperor will be the king, what is this? What do you want others to think? How else can you go?
So, it's impossible!
The discussion and the temporary stalemate, Huofeng is also very helpless, there is really no good way.
In the face of such a situation, it is obvious that Gao Yuyao is also a little unable to sit still, after all, a lot of troops have been transferred to the north, if the war here is not resolved as soon as possible and the army goes back, Xuzhou will be in danger.
Gao Yuyao concentrated all the troops that were originally divided, and under the strong attack, although there were many casualties, he also forced himself to open a road, and the subsequent route, unless necessary, would not pay attention to any city at all, and the goal was clear and went straight to Hongdu!
Looking at the vast army under the city that attacked directly without saying a word, Chen Fuxuan made a man who wanted to cry without tears, and only then did he understand that the patience of several generations was not unreasonable, in the final analysis, he was still too anxious, if he delayed it for a few more years......
No, even if it is now changing to the independence of the army, it will not end up like this.
Because the army in the north of the imperial court will not be transferred south, and even the guards of the Beijing division will continue to be transferred to the north, but what can be done now? Although there were 80,000 defenders in the city, their morale was so low that they basically didn't have much hope.
