Chapter 452 The situation has changed dramatically
The structure of the Machinery Industry Bureau is still under construction, and there are also the resumes and lists of officials obtained by Wang Yun from the Ministry of Personnel. The people Wang Rong called for are also coming one after another.
The three-year plan for industrial construction of Daming Mansion was only basically formed in Wang Rong's head. But at this time, the sound of horns from the northwest once again broke the world that had just calmed down, and for a moment, the storm and thunder were shaking.
In mid-May, the young emperor of Western Xia, Li Liangzuo, issued a letter of state to officially declare war on the regime of the silo. While the news was walking, the border army of the Western Xia and the Southern Army had crossed the Luochuan and quickly approached the Hehuang area.
Dong Wen, the son of Yeshila, was very happy with the merits. He ignored his father's dissuasion and quickly raised 20,000 troops out of Huangzhou, trying to gather 20,000 elite cavalry at the Huangshui Fork to block the attack and cross the river of the Southern Army.
In the Battle of Huangshui Chakou, Dong Jie's troops were blocked by two thousand musketeers of the Western Xia general Zhuo Luolan, and suffered heavy losses. The morale collapsed and he was unable to control the flintlock rifle. Although Dong Jie's troops had not completely collapsed, they had no choice but to retreat to Huangzhou to defend.
From May 18th, he and the Southern Army officially crossed the Huangshui River, and the horse was flat and the morale was strong to advance towards Huangzhou City.
The Yisiluo tribe in Xining Prefecture held 60,000 elite cavalry but did not dare to act rashly. Due to the defeat in the battle between Huangzhou Chakou, the talented and strategic Yisiluo had already seen Dong Ji's ability, who was very happy with the achievements, and did not dare to trust his son easily. At the same time, the Renduo tribe of Xixia left Renduoquan City and entered the Hehuang area.
At the same time, it was reported that the 20,000 cavalrymen who were originally used to guard against the return horse thieves in the Western Xia Gansu Army had already moved south. The speed of advancement was not fast, but it was enough for the sage to dare not act rashly, and he was temporarily unable to rescue Dongwu's army in Huangzhou.
Yu Silu judged that the Gansu military command dared to go south at this time, and Xixia and Huiqi should have reached a tacit understanding. And there was news as early as early May, the Xixia general Manme had brought a thousand iron kites and 6,000 guards passed Helan Mountain. Calculate the time, the strict military discipline should have crossed the Tengger Desert before the Huangshui Chakou Battle. In other words, the unpredictable Manme tribe may appear in any corner of the Hehuang area at any time.
So, if you are careful to easily divide your troops to rescue Huangzhou, it will cause the main force of Hehuang to suffer heavy damage, so you can only hold your troops unmoved.
Rumors: Ye Silu did not divide his troops to rescue his son Dong Wen in time, and Huangzhou was surrounded, which caused him to have a heart disease between the father and son.
The above news was reported to Wang Rong in the lobby of the Machinery Industry Bureau.
These things have nothing to do with the Machinery Industry Bureau, but Aunt Mu knew that Dalian was concerned about these things, so she came to inform him as soon as possible.
Afterwards, Wang Yun was furious and stood up and walked around and murmured: "Dong felt a mud that cannot be supported on the wall. If I were a servant, I would have shot this kid on the wall!"
The Great Demon King's language is so unrestrained, so as a woman who has come here, Mu Guiying can't help but blush. She went over and raised her hand to touch Dalian's head and said, "Don't be anxious, this is a matter for the Tubo people. It has little to do with the Song Dynasty for the time being, and even more has little to do with the Daming Mansion."
Wang Yun said deflatedly: "It's a big deal. Now seeing that the Gansu military command dares to go south, Xixia will definitely have a deal with Huiqi. Perhaps Yelu Hongji, who has survived the chaos, agreed. The speed of the Xixia people launched a war faster than I expected. This battle must not allow Xixia to win, otherwise Li Liangzuo, the naughty child, will inevitably become the leader, and I will be subject to endless harassment in the Song Dynasty, and Wuzheiyun, will definitely be a pill. All of this is the plot of the old fox of the Ming Dynasty. You believe me, although Empress Dowager Wuzhe is not extreme, she is a normal person. Once the power of the Western Xia falls into the hands of the tyrannical naughty child Li Liangzuo, and the regime and extreme religion are tied together, it will be a disaster for everyone in the world. In the long run, if millions of people die for this, I will lose."
Now Mu Guiying also had a premonition of the seriousness of the problem. Perhaps there was really a big son who had some feelings for the Queen Mother Xixia, and some of the butts in this matter were determined. But if the crazy old fox of Dazang Mingwang intervened in these matters, it was indeed a serious problem.
However, there is no way now. If Wang Rong was in power on Qin Fenglu, he might have done something. Now, Wang Rong, who has been refrigerated, has no choice but to do anything about it.
After thinking about it, the most hateful thing was Fu Bi. When Wang Yun judged these situations, he specifically asked Fu Bi to offer advice and asked for an envoy to deal with the situation. It was only the end of February.
At that time, there was enough time and too much to do. If we speed up the mission, give money, food, trade terms, and persuade the Oshiro to take the initiative to send troops in advance, it was not the current situation at all.
At least it can disrupt the deployment of Xixia. If the sage is cruel enough, he can concentrate his superior forces without intention, and he will fight back to the east of Lingbo Mountain with the Southern Army in one breath, it is equivalent to pushing the sphere of influence to the front line of the ancient Great Wall before the deployment of the elite muskets in Xixia.
At that time, I had full initiative, relying on the Great Wall and the Zero Wave Mountains to block the support cavalry of Xixia, and could also threaten Xiliang Prefecture from afar.
If you act in March, even if you can't help the voluntarily send troops, you will never be able to prepare in advance and deploy an offensive at the front line of the Huangshui Fork to block the crossing of the Southern Army. Why is it so passive now?
Now something is really wrong. If Xining Prefecture and Huangzhou are lost, the eleventh can retreat to the west of Qinghai Lake, but the stick will hit the water dog. At that time, not only will the trade line between the Song Dynasty and the west be cut off, but the Hehuang area will fall into the hands of the Xixia people, but the eleventh of the Song Dynasty, the eleventh of the Song Dynasty, will inevitably be brought to light by the thief of the horse.
They are all wolves, but the Yusilu regime is the most friendly to the Song Dynasty and loves trade the most. This is a fact and Fu Bi's consistent diplomatic thinking.
Thinking of this, Wang Yun took a deep breath, but knew that he could not blame Fu Bi completely. Because Fu Bi really may not have the final say now. At that time, Dalian judged the situation and offered advice. Fu Bi accepted it, but it did not mean that Han Jiang and other ministers would accept it. Now that the emperor was mentally conscious, it was not something that Fu Bi could do if he supported the war.
According to news from Zhang Fangping's staying behind the Ministry, even now, the Song Dynasty court is divided into several factions, and there are suggestions that "This situation is great, and I will do a shore to watch the fire."
There is also the voice of "alliance with Xixia, sending troops from the west to cooperate with Xixia to attack the Hehuang area". The voice of this group is now a bit mainstream. From human nature, it is very vulgar, and it is all about interests. The Song Dynasty has always been afraid of Xixia but not Tubo. Therefore, the view of this type of people: helping Xixia clean up the Tubo people, deepen their relationship with Xixia, and obtain part of the land of Tubo, which is interests.
On the surface, this seems to be true, but in fact it belongs to a short-sighted group. Tubo was in chaos many years ago and the situation of "warlord separatism". In this case, the Song Dynasty was deeply affected. The entanglement and melee of various warlord tribes often burned the war into the territory of the Song Dynasty, and the responsible person was still not found.
This kind of thing was not done in ancient times. For example, the artillery shells from Myanmar fell into Yunnan more than once, causing damage. However, the central government could not even understand who should communicate with each other. Both the government and the rebels said that it was done by the other party. This is reality, and if this kind of thing happened in ancient times, it would cause much harm, and border residents would suffer.
If a region is in civil strife, trade is a joke. The materials that the Song Dynasty intends to transport to tribe A will most likely be snatched by tribe B. Even if it is not snatched, it will make enemies with tribe C. This is probably the case, and few merchants are willing to sell goods under such circumstances. Therefore, in addition to the harm caused to border residents, civil strife basically means trade severance.
The reason why Fu Bi held a similar idea to Dalian was that after the rise of the regime of the Song Dynasty, although the entire Tubo tribe was theoretically unable to unify the entire Tubo tribe, basically the rules were there and there was no confusion. So Song Dynasty caravans were always protecting the western trade routes. In addition to communicating in Tubo, they could also reach Huiqi, or continue to move westward.
Let’s not talk about trade for now. If the Hehuang area is controlled by the Xixia region and its strength increases, it will be extremely unfavorable to the Song Dynasty. Speaking of the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, the only one who is most tense and bitter and deeply hatred with the Song Dynasty will be the Western Xia.
All kinds of reasons are destined that Yusila cannot lose this battle. Without Yusila, Tubo will basically be like a long night. They will split and fight each other under the influence of religious theocracy. Whether unified or split, they will only become serfs who are worse than the Golden Triangle area at that time, until an old man nine hundred years later went to liberate them.
In the vision of Dalian, the lifespan of Yan Siluo is of course limited. Even if he is not defeated by Xixia this time, after his death, his sons will fight for the throne again, which will once again lead to Tubo into darkness and civil strife, and will be even more used by religious gods.
But that doesn't matter. Yusilu is a pro-Han regime. The industrialization of the Great Kingdom is rolling out. The Tubo people during the Yusilu period began to pro-Han. With industrial trade and cultural invasions, it is really not difficult to control or even assimilate them for a few years.
The nature of human beings determines that as long as you are strong and advanced enough and can promote it, nothing is a problem.
For example, Japan was twice overturned to the ground by the US imperialists, once directly scrubbed by nuclear bombs, and once a square agreement that was almost robbed by usury. But in fact, there are few people in Japan who do not kiss American fathers. On the contrary, they hate China that they have bullied. That is called admiration for the strong and superiority to the weak.
For example, the Japanese army had such great hatred in China, but a Japanese drama "Ashin" after the war could move half of China at that time.
Ashin's son joined the army as a pilot and fought against the US military in the Pacific War Zone. After the defeat, the US military landed in Japan. Ashin's man thought it was shameful to commit suicide by committing suicide by separatism. Dalian remembers: Uncle was moved when he saw these plots.
This is called the script wrong. Damn it. If "Ashin's sons" really drive a Zero fighter jet and defeat the thief eagle in the Pacific War Zone, then although China will not be as eternal as the night, the Chinese will continue to die for hundreds of millions. But this is human nature. Human nature determines that at that time, most people who read "Ashin" thought that the Japanese army was a Bushido hero, and Ashin was the mother of several heroes, which was very amazing.
This is the power of cultural invasion, and it is also what Confucius said about human nature being good. As a normal person with human nature being good, his requirements are really low, and he will easily forgive others and easily remember the kindness and highlights of others.
For example, Ouyang Feng has been ruined for a lifetime, but in the end he only needs to be better at Yang Guo. The old poison can be forgiven by 90% of readers, while Huang Rong is hated by 90% of readers. In a true theory, the old poison is of course 100,000 times more damned than Huang Rong.
The premise of cultural invasion is that it is only effective for "normal people". When encountering a theocracy or extreme ideas, it will fail. For example, Afghanistan in turn will turn the American fathers' daily necessities. The bloodline of "human nature is good" can be wiped out by theological religious thinking like a virus invasion. This is why religion can produce a large number of anti-1 person and one type of person.
So the reason to support Yusila is not too simple: Yusila is not the King of Ming, he is a person who wants to do business.
At this point, Wang Yun raised the tea and took a few sips, and hurriedly fanned the breath with a fan.
Mu Guiying said with a strange expression: "To put it breeze, you sold the flintlock rifle to Xixia. The sages of the sages were not prepared enough, and Dong Jiong was stubborn and had the result of the current result. Otherwise... since Mr. Fu Bi didn't have time to intervene in diplomacy, then do you intervene in trade again and provide the flintlock rifle to the sages?"
Wang Rong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "But it is not possible. This will definitely hurt Xixia's nerves."
Mu Guiying said horrifiedly: "You don't want to hurt Empress Dowager Lu's heart, right?"
Wang Yun shook his hand and said, "This is not here. At that time, during the Northwest Bandit Suppression War, although Xixia intervened and provided command and material support, they did not give war horses and flintlock rifles to the Three Mountains and Seven Villages from beginning to end. So this has been a default for Song Xia. My Song Dynasty is not on the verge of life and death. As a responsible big country, we need reputation and some rules, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to the Song Dynasty's future trade, rise, diplomacy, etc.."
As a result, Aunt Mu Guiying had nothing to say. It seemed that she had encountered a dead end, so she could only wait and see what she had changed.
"It's useless to think too much, you'd better think about the construction of Daming Mansion." Mu Guiying sighed and left.
After calming down, Wang Yun was not panicked about this. After thinking for a long time, he vaguely felt that this was an alternative route and might also gain a lot of benefits for the Song Dynasty.
Finally, he drank the tea in one sip and Wang Yun stood up and left the Mechanical Industry Bureau's office...
