Chapter 59 The first year of the tycoon

Regarding the expedition, if Fuyu Kingdom helps you, you can supply food and grass along the way without having to win the food for thousands of miles.

Deng Ai said: "One bell for the enemy is to be twenty bells. This is the calculation secret in "The Art of War". Fuyu Kingdom is closer to Goguryeo, which can save us a lot of materials and time and give the enemy an unexpected attack."

For thousands of miles of transportation, the baggage troops need to eat twenty minutes of food and grass on the road before they can deliver one minute of food and grass to the front line. If they can grab the enemy's food nearby on the front line, it is equivalent to saving twenty minutes. With the help of Fuyu Kingdom, the Yan army can go all out and completely exterminate Goguryeo.

Gongsun Xiu looked happy and nodded, "Yes, the attack on the enemy was unexpected, and I was preparing to expedition to Goguryeo. The King of Dongchuan would think that our army would not arrive at Marudu so quickly. When our army sneaked to the sky, we would definitely win."

Deng Ai smiled and said, "The king is the wise."

Gongsun Xiu was overjoyed. With Deng Ai, he really saved his worries and effort. The saying that thousands of troops were easy to fight and a general was hard to find was not unreasonable. Deng Ai was best at calculating and elusive surprise attacks and sneak attacks, and applied the tricks in military tactics to the limit.

Everyone laughed together.

There was a mutual marriage between the Fuyu Kingdom and Liaodong, and the royal family had some blood relationships with Gongsun Yuan, Gongsun Xiu and others. After all, Gongsun Du married the daughter of the clan when he took charge of Liaodong.

It can be said that there is no problem in joining the Fuyu Kingdom and attacking Goguryeo and Xianbei together.

The winter in Liaodong is extremely cold, and any farming will stop. People close their doors and doors, and the roofs and streets are covered with thick white snow.

The time is entering December and the year is about to end. Jia Fan and Lunzhi both submitted memorials and mentioned the year name. Since a country is established, there is still a year name.

Gongsun Yuan established himself as king in July last year and his reign was called "Shaohan". It has been seventeen months since the new king ascended the throne, so he naturally has to re-determine the reign.

He was amused in his heart: "If it weren't for my appearance, the Shaohan era name only took thirteen months in history."

Jia Fan proposed six year names as alternatives, and everyone discussed it, but they all felt that it was inappropriate. Fortunately, in order to promote King Yan, everyone said that there was nothing in the sky and nowhere underground, just like a wise monarch of the ages, who was a heroic ruler in the ages.

He only heard his scalp tingling. He was tired of listening to such flattery words every day and said, "It is enough to have a good meaning in the year name, and it must be in line with two points. First, all things will last forever, and second, the world will be governed forever. Don't be fancy and whistle-like."

Lunzhi frowned and murmured: "The world and all things are growing and developing, and they are said to be great, and the past and present are continuous, and they are called Heng. It seems that it is better to set the year name as 'Da Heng'. What do you think, the king?"

Gongsun Xiu almost didn't breathe, and the wine he had just drunk choked out of his nostrils, thinking to himself: "Damn it, it's a good thing I'm talking about 'Daheng'. If these two words are reversed, they will be not far from the destruction of the country."

Jia Fan also felt that "Daheng" was excellent as the year name, and said happily: "Your Majesty, it is really good to use this as the year name."

Gongsun Xiu waved his hand quickly, thinking that this is not a big deal. A real estate king had chosen such a name and was about to collapse. He could not touch this bad intention. He said, "It's not appropriate. I think there is no dynasty in the world for all ages. It's too much to use the word "heng". Qin Emperor and Han Wu were all over the world during their lifetime, but now it's just a piece of loess. If you think the name is good, you should set it as "tycoon". The pronunciation is the same and the meaning is not bad."

Jia Fan carefully savored the word "tycoon" and said that the prosperity means smooth and understanding. It was not bad. He nodded and said, "What the king said is very true, and using this year's name is extremely suitable."

Therefore, in this year recorded in later generations, the Wei State was the second year of Jingchu, the Shu State was the first year of Yanxi, and the Wu State was the seventh year of Jiahe, and the Yan State officially launched the tycoon as its year name, which was called the first year of the tycoon.

The cold winter gradually faded until the first month of the following year, the second year of the tycoon.

The Fuyu Kingdom, thousands of miles away, finally replied, but the content made the entire Yan Kingdom extremely angry.

The letter not only explained that there was a conflict between the two countries and the unjustified arguments, but the messenger of Yan State was directly deposed and the gold, silver and jewelry they carried were directly detained and returned.

Jia Fan was so angry that he threw the book on the ground and said angrily: "The Fuyu Kingdom is too bullying. The etiquette of our Yan Kingdom is very high, and he actually made such rude behaviors. The king, the gentle minister suggested that if we send troops to attack Goguryeo, we should also clean up the Fuyu Kingdom."

Gongsun Xiu had never come into contact with Fuyu Kingdom and didn't know what to sell in the gourd. He frowned and said, "I have something to do. Since Fuyu Kingdom is my relatives in Yan Kingdom and has always had no conflicts. How could it be that it is abnormal and seems to break with Yan Kingdom? The strangeness must be observed."

Deng Ai frowned and said, "Your Majesty, if you say that Fuyu Kingdom and Yan Kingdom have been intimate for many years, this must have been a plan of separation by King Dongchuan, Mo Huba."

"Shi Zai, where do you start?" Gongsun Xiu asked.

Deng Ai smiled comfortingly: "If the king annexes Goguryeo and the Xianbei, who will the next one annexe?"

He immediately realized it and smiled, "What do you mean is the lips are gone and the teeth are cold?"

Deng Ai smiled slightly and nodded solemnly, "No. I believe the Lord Fuyu is worried that the king's last target is him."

Gongsun Xiu sneered: "That's just the difference between dying early and dying late. Since the Fuyu Kingdom did not give the Gu a little bit of a thin face, then we will deal with it together, destroy Goguryeo, Xianbei and Fuyu, and annex it with the flow."

Jia Fan was shocked and said in horror: "Does the king want to annex them together?"

"Of course, not only do we have to annex, but we also have to slowly move everyone to Liaodong and become the people of Yan. Now that Wei withdraws troops, maybe invade Liaodong again in another year and a half. If we don't take the opportunity to strengthen ourselves and kill ourselves, how can we wait for the sky to collapse?"

Gongsun Xiu thought that since Fuyu Kingdom had killed the envoy, there was no room for recovery. He said with high apology: "Gu Zhengjing would not have an excuse to send troops to annex Fuyu Kingdom in the future. He has now given Gu a legitimate reason. Shi Zai, why not talk about your opinion, it is obvious that joint troops will not be successful."

Deng Ai pondered for a little, and said, "This requires a precise observation of the intrigue between the three forces in the future before planning and then taking action. In the past, Sima Yi sent troops to Liaodong, and the King of Dongchuan and Mo Huba were willing to send troops to help, while Fuyu Kingdom remained neutral, neither assisting Wei nor saving Yan—"

Gongsun Xiu nodded subconsciously. He knew that Deng Ai was stuttering and spoke slowly. He was afraid that he would "Qiqiai Ai" if he spoke quickly. He immediately replied patiently: "Shi Zai means, I understand. Fuyu Kingdom is a neutral country and a country of in-laws. He traveled thousands of miles from Liaodong. Even if he wanted to save Yan at that time, he would probably not be able to do so."
