Chapter 287 The catastrophe of the nations outside the Great Wall
The King of Zhongshan, who was angry and beautiful, personally led his 20,000-strong army of infantry and cavalry to march from Daming Mansion to Jinan. They stepped through the frozen Ji River, attacked Changqing in one battle, and then...
Then he stopped moving again.
In fact, Wang Yue really didn't have time to manage Jinan. He was in land reform in the entire Hebei area, and all kinds of messy matters were everywhere.
Countless officials need to be re-appointed, countless villages need to establish grassroots organizations, and countless cases need to be tried. He originally wanted to have Hebei West Road this winter, but now he has even won Hebei East Road. The talents he prepared were not enough and he had to conduct surprise training. Although these trainings were mainly responsible for the talents trained in Yanshan Prefecture before, those so-called talents were just at the level of literacy classes, and many things still had to be arrested by him personally.
Fighting is simple for him.
He is confident that the attack of the soldiers is absolutely invincible.
But this place is not in Liaodong. It is in Liaodong, but it is necessary to truly establish rule here.
This is what really consumes the most energy, especially the densely populated area, which is a Daming Mansion that requires millions of people. This is also the reason why he plays communalization in these super-large cities. If he wants to manage it directly, he will probably have no time to care about it. Communization can be used to pass the blame to the greatest extent.
He did not conquer a place like those monarchs who changed dynasties and then handed it over to this person.
He wants to break the old system and rebuild the new system.
As for attacking Jinan...
He just said that, and these people would not really threaten him.
As for Li Qingzhao...
An old woman in her forties is not really so hungry, and Li Qingzhao doesn't seem to be famous for her appearance. It is said that she is addicted to gambling and drinking. Although it does not exceed Wang Yue's aesthetic scope, such a woman should age faster than others.
Wang Yue was also worried that after meeting, he found out that he was a middle-aged aunt wearing heavy makeup.
In short, you can't disrupt the steps because of this matter.
And at this time he had to face the trouble of the Jurchens...
Of course, it wasn't the Jurchens who went south again.
At this time, Xie Ye and Nian Han and others understood that they could not break through the alliance created by Wang Yue.
When they attacked Liaoshen, they had to face the attacks of Liaoxi and even the Song army towards Liaoxi. Their siege ability could not quickly break through Liaoshen, which was defending by horses. However, the Liaoxi army, which purchased a large amount of gunpowder from Wang Yue and even obtained counterweight catapult manufacturing technology, could quickly break through their cities with the cooperation of the old Liao remnants.
They attacked western Liaoning, and they also had to face the Ming army's northward journey.
At the same time, they will attack Liaodong and Liaoxi, so they will have to face Wang Yue's massive move north, and at that time they must do their best, and even wild dogs like Goryeo couldn't help but bite them.
This is certainly not possible.
They can no longer defeat this alliance with their own family.
So they needed helpers, and this helper was their biggest enemy in history. Xie also sent envoys to enthrone Hebule as the king of Mongolia, married his daughter to Hebule, and joined forces with the latter to quickly wipe out the remaining forces of the Divine Calvary regime. Hebule, who was supported by the Jurchens, quickly conquered the enemy Lieba tribes and Chazhala tribes and became the boss of Central Mongolia, and seized Hedongcheng, the former headquarters of the Ugu Nei Lie Army of the Liao Kingdom from Yelu Dashi, and established the country and called Khan.
He was already taking the opportunity to expand, and the rise of Mongolia itself was the result of Yelu Dashi's remnant Liao and Jin tug-of-war across the Mongolian Plateau.
Originally, in history, Hebule had already dared to touch his beard openly at least before Wu Qimai died.
Now Xi just changed the conquest to win over and bribed him to become an alliance. Anyway, he has no ability to conquer.
In this way, you don’t have to worry about Yelu Dashi.
I have to say that these Jurchens are also very cunning, which solved the safety of their backs in one fell swoop.
Immediately afterwards, Olibu personally led an expeditionary force composed of 5,000 Jurchens, 5,000 Xi people, and 10,000 Khitans. He set off from Tongzhou, Siping, and crossed the mountainous areas to Zhengzhou, Tonghua, and then summoned Changbai Mountain tribes, Huiba tribe, Yalu River tribe, Pulumaoduo tribe and other troops around Changbai Mountain. He crossed the Yalu River and quickly recovered Huanzhou, which was seized by Goryeo, and attacked Baozhou and other places along the Yalu River.
Then we started to sweep Goryeo.
Yanshan Prefecture.
"Share or not?"
Xiao Puxian asked.
It was the spring of the second year, and the coast of Tianjin had thawed, and the messengers of Goryeo arrived in Yanshan to ask for help from them.
After the army of Olibu entered Goryeo, it was like a devastating along the way. At this time, Xijing, which had already captured Goryeo, was Pyongyang. The Jurchen invasion led to civil strife in Goryeo. At this time, the King of Goryeo was Wang Kai, also known as Goryeo Renzong. Because he was young when he succeeded to the throne, he was the grandfather and father-in-law Li Ziqian...
Well, this seniority is a bit messy.
But Wang Kai is indeed the daughter of Li Ziqian.
And he was also forced by his grandfather to be the princesses.
Li Ziqian actually controlled the government affairs, and even reached the point where he treated Wang Kai as a puppet, and officials went directly to his place for the news. He took the opportunity to grab territory and had close ties with the Song Dynasty. All of these were presided over by him. The Olibu invasion was also under the banner of striking him. Therefore, the invasion of the Jurchen triggered internal conflicts in Goryeo. Wang Kai launched a coup under the instigation of some of his close confidants, trying to kill his grandfather in one fell swoop, but the matter was leaked, and his grandfather's family Taku Junjing set fire to the palace.
Li Ziqian has already placed Wang Kai under house arrest, but in fact the latter was scared to abdicate, but his grandfather didn't want it. In short, facing internal and external troubles, Li Ziqian sent an envoy to ask for help.
He wanted Wang Yue to pull him.
As long as the Ming army attacked Baozhou, it would be possible to force Olibu to return to defense.
"No matter what, he did not pay tribute to the Song Dynasty, why should I care about his life or death?"
Wang Yue said
"But he is a vassal of the Great Liao vassal."
Xiao Puxian said.
"Then let the Emperor of the Great Liao save him."
Wang Yue said with a smile.
Xiao Puxian gave him a blank look.
The Emperor of the Great Liao is just saving his life. The Emperor of the Great Liao is still playing in the exile government with his grandmother!
"But if the Jurchens destroyed Goryeo, our maritime trade routes would be dangerous. What's more, if they were not saved, Goryeo would inevitably surrender to the Jurchens. Goryeo had naval troops in their hands, and Jurchens could also use their naval troops to raid our coast, especially blocking the transportation from Dengzhou to Liaodong."
Xiao Puxian said.
"This needs attention."
Wang Yue pondered for a moment, and he did ignore the Goryeo's naval army problem.
but……
"Don't worry about these things, just business roads. Going to the coast of Goryeo can solve the problem. At worst, it's a big deal to go to Dengzhou. Such a small thing is not worth mentioning. But you can agree to them first and let them firm up their belief in perseverance. After all, if they really surrender directly, we won't be able to see the fun. Just tell them, just say I will quickly mobilize the army to Liaodong and then attack Baozhou. In addition, our navy will also attack the Yalu River Estuary. In short, they can just wait, and victory will definitely belong to us."
Wang Yue said.
What a big deal to save, of course this kind of good show of Jurchen and Goryeo is going to be fun.
As for the Jurchens who obtained the Goryeo Navy, it was not worth mentioning. Even if they really obtained the Goryeo Navy and raided the coast, it would have been many years later.
There is no need to care at this time.
"There is one more thing, the White Tatar surrendered to Hebule."
Xiao Puxian said.
This is actually an inevitable result.
The White Tatars were actually the later Wang Gu tribe. After they were defeated by Nian Han last time, they kept accusing Wang Yue of cheating them...
Of course, the real reason is that the losses are too terrible and need to be supplemented. They are afraid of being beaten by Nian Han and dare not provoke the Jurchens. Then the only ones that can be looted by them are the Xuanda area. However, Xuanda belongs to Yang Zongmin and Guo Qizhong, and these two are Wang Yue's allies, so there is a reason, and this reason is that Wang Yue cheated them.
With the support of Xieye, Hebule began to unify the grassland tribes, but he definitely couldn't go east. According to his division between him and Xieye, the Onan River, Luqu River, and the Krulun coast were all his, but before he surrendered to the Wugu tribe of Jurchen and the Heichezishiwei and other Daxinganling tribes. He conquered the enemy Lie tribes and Tuzhala tribes, and then attacked the troops of the Liao Kingdom. But he obviously knew that it was unwise to attack Yelu Dashi, and the latter's 30,000 cavalry were not easy to mess with, so he could only attack the White Tatar tribes to the south.
This was originally planned, and it was also possible to go south to loot, which was the most cost-effective for Hebule.
Then the white Tatar must make a choice.
Either fight with Hebule or team up to go south to rob.
It is obvious that the latter is the most suitable choice for their aesthetics.
This is inevitable.
Anyway, it is impossible for him to really care about them. It is just an alliance, and they respectfully call him Khan.
In other words, Xuanda will have to face the invasion of the Mengwu Kingdom next.
But it doesn't work now, because Hebule dares not go south. After all, there is Yelu Dashi next to him.
The latter had been in Keduan City for many years. Although he still surrendered to the Emperor of the Great Liao in theory, he actually had the final say. He relied on the four prefectures and 30,000 nomadic cavalry, and a large number of Han craftsmen. In fact, he became the master of the Western Mongolian grassland. The Naiman tribes, which still surrendered to the Liao Kingdom, were all under his rule. They also had close ties with the Gaochang Uighurs, and had contacts with the Hei Khan and the Xixia. He Bule could not really go south to plunder when he threatened his flanks.
At most, a small number of cavalrymen were sent to cooperate with the White Tatars to carry out horse bandit-like harassment in the Xuanda area.
So Yang Zongmin and Guo Qizhong should be able to cope.
It has to be said that at this time, the north was really a mess, and almost all the forces involved were involved. Khitan, Jurchen, Bohai, Xi people, Tatars, and Goryeo were all involved. They were all involved in this long war that had actually lasted for many years. I don’t know how many people of these messy ethnic groups survived in the end.
This is a catastrophe for all the nations outside the Frontier.
but……
As a lively watcher, the feeling at this time is undoubtedly really joyful!
