Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Wu Ji followed Qingji and inspected the three armies of the Liao Kingdom. The more he watched, the more frightened he became.

The soldiers of the Liao Kingdom were all tall and powerful. Not to mention, they were also good at riding and shooting. They fought against the barbarians outside all the year round, and their combat effectiveness was very strong.

The gap between them and the elite division of Great Wu is only the gap in weapons and equipment.

This is not good.

Wu Ji thought for a long time, and finally at night, he found Qing Ji alone and talked about it.

"Grandfather, grandson has something in his heart, don't know whether to say it or not?"

"Say."

"The military strength of the Liao Kingdom is too strong. My grandson heard that under the rule of the Liao Kingdom, there are more than 100 million people, and most of them are young and middle-aged. Although the standing army is only 10, the Liao people have a strong sense of martial arts, and every family dares to fight. , Hearing of the war, he will be happy."

Wu Ji frowned and said, "The Liao Kingdom is just like my Great Wu. Every time when the farming is slack, people of the right age will be trained everywhere. It can be said that all the people are soldiers."

"When necessary, the Liao Kingdom can send out an army of 30 to [-] to go out to fight."

"Grandfather, these are not tens of thousands of soldiers, but more than 20 soldiers."

"In terms of military strength, the only one among the feudal kingdoms that can compete with the Liao Kingdom is the Serbian Kingdom."

"The difference is that Serbia is located in a remote area with vast land and sparsely populated. Most of them are barren lands. There is only one Hehuang Valley, which can barely be regarded as the grain-producing area of ​​Serbia, but it is difficult to support Serbia's expeditionary operations."

"The Liao Kingdom is different. The Liao Kingdom sits on two major grain-producing areas, the Songnen Plain and the Liaohe Plain, and there is also a Ning Kingdom with a prosperous culture, a large population, and rich land. , grandson is really terrified..."

Wu Ji bluntly told Qing Ji his true inner thoughts.

The largest vassal kingdom of Great Wu is actually not Serbia or Liao, but the overseas country of Australia.

However, in Wu Ji's view, the Australian country established on the continent of Australia will not be successful.

At least within a few hundred years, no matter how much Australia develops, it will not become a climate, and it will not pose any threat to the mainland of Great Wu.

Because Australia is vast and sparsely populated, with only a few hundred thousand people and no more than [-] soldiers, the country was just established. It is impossible for anyone to travel across the ocean to settle in Australia.

Serbia and Liao are different.

The territory of Serbia is very vast, which is equivalent to a Tibet in later generations, as well as parts of Xinjiang, Bhutan, and Nepal. The soldiers are strong and there are 30 to [-] men in armor. It is possible that when the empire is weak, it will invade Guanzhong.

If Serbia is allowed to get involved in the Guanzhong and Bashu areas of Great Wu, it will really become a climate.

Compared with Serbia, the Liao Kingdom is even worse.

The territory of the Liao Kingdom spans thousands of miles, bordering Yanshan Mountain in the south, Heilongjiang River in the north, Lake Baikal and Ulaanbaatar in the west, and Changbai Mountain and Yalu River in the east.

The territory of the Liao Kingdom is equivalent to the modern three eastern provinces, plus parts of Inner Mongolia and Lao Maozi.

The population under the Liao Kingdom is said to be more than 100 million, but in fact it may have reached 200 million.

If Liao and Ning merged, it would immediately pose a greater threat to the mainland of Wu.

Qing Ji cast a contemptuous glance at Wu Ji, and asked, "Ji Er, do you want me to abolish the Liao clan?"

"No, my grandson dare not."

Wu Ji shook his head and said, "Grandfather knows your great intentions in setting up Liaoning and Liaoning in the Northeast. However, these two feudal kingdoms have indeed become quite popular."

"My grandson has the guts to ask my grandfather to set up three or even five vassal kingdoms on the land of the Liao Kingdom, and at the same time divide the Ning Kingdom into two..."

"Does it fit?"

"Grandfather, what's inappropriate?"

Hearing this, Qing Ji said earnestly, "Ji'er, you think things too simply."

"As you said, if the Liao Kingdom is divided into three, or divided into five, what price will Wu pay?"

"There are many Hu tribes in Liao, and there are countless people with ulterior motives."

"Two years ago, as soon as Wu Zhang left, the Liao Kingdom rebelled. Fortunately, Wu Hong sent troops to help in time, which saved the Liao Kingdom from the crisis of losing the country."

"Not only the Hu people in the Liao Kingdom, but also the Hu people outside have coveted the Liao land."

"If the Liao Kingdom is divided into three, or even divided into five, I dare say that in less than three years, all the feudal kingdoms in the Liao Region will be destroyed, and all of them will be destroyed. Ning Kingdom will also inevitably be in danger of collapse."

"This……"

Wu Ji also took this into consideration.

However, he believes that a strong Liao state is not in the actual interests of Wu.

It's good that Qingji is alive, but once Qingji dies, who will be able to control Liao and Serbia?
It is worth mentioning that Wu Zhang, king of Liao, and Wu Fan, king of Sai, were still stationed in the west.

It is estimated that these two people have a legion of several 10 people, a foreign army.

If Qingji died suddenly, and these two men led their troops back to seize the throne, would Prince Heng, who had just inherited the throne, be able to stop him?
Wu Ji gritted his teeth, and said bravely, "Grandfather, you can't leave such a mess to your father or your grandson."

"If your grandfather can't solve the matter in your lifetime, father and grandson, it's even more impossible to solve it."

Qing Ji smiled, patted Wu Ji on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Ji Er, you have to trust me, and you have to trust your father."

"When the right time comes, I will cut down the feudal clan."

"My generation may not be suitable for cutting feudal clans, but it is okay for your generation to cut feudal clans."

"As for what method to use, you will know later."

Now that the matter has come to this point, Qingji has sold a trick, which makes Wu Ji deeply speechless.

Wu Ji aspires to become a great emperor through the ages like Qing Ji.

Therefore, he will not give up these vassal kingdoms.

He wanted to go one step further, expand a territory even bigger than his imperial grandfather's, and carry on the past.

……

After Qingji's patrol team left Gaoping, the capital of the Liao Kingdom, they traveled eastward again, crossed the Yalu River Bridge, and directly entered the border of the Ning Kingdom.

Qingji was very moved by what he saw and heard along the way.

"Wu Hong, if I didn't know that this place is under the rule of the Ning Kingdom, I would have thought it was in my native place of Great Wu."

"All of this is inseparable from your merits of enlightenment and governance."

"Father is very praised."

Wu Hong was still very humble.

Thanks to Wu Hong's governance, Ningguo became a prosperous country.

Having said that, among the vassal kingdoms of Great Wu, Ningguo has a solid foundation and has long been a civilized country.

The predecessor of Ningguo was Jizi Dynasty, and Jizi Dynasty was a country established by Jizi, the uncle of King Shang Zhou, the last king of the Shang Dynasty.

Jizi went east and did it overnight, and he was not alone, but brought a Ji clan group with him in stages.

5000 Yin people followed him!

When Jizi entered the Korean peninsula, he not only passed on advanced culture, advanced farming, sericulture, and textile technology, but also brought a large number of bronze wares. In addition, he also formulated legal provisions such as the "Eight Prohibitions".

After more than [-] years of development, Jizi Korea has entered the Bronze Age long ago and has a certain degree of civilization.

Wu Hong led his troops into Jizi North Korea. After successfully establishing Ningguo, he made great efforts to govern Ningguo, so that Ningguo was well-educated in politics and education.

Confucius' ideal country is none other than Ningguo under the rule of Wu Hong.
