Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 411
There was a mutiny in Guanzhong, and Fu Jian had recently succeeded to the throne. Generals Gao Yun and Xu Cheng, who had stationed troops in Hedong and Hongnong, immediately launched an attack.

But it was Deng Qiang who guarded Puban, with tens of thousands of troops at his disposal, and he could not move out. Gao Yun feigned attacks several times, but seeing Deng Qiang's tight defense, he did not dare to attack by force, so he built a fortification and defended.

Fu Fei guarded Tongguan and fought several bloody battles with Xu Cheng, causing casualties on both sides.

Generally speaking, the Qin army could not be defeated by the strength of Generals Gao and Xu, and the war gradually became stalemate.

Fu Jian still knew how to be a good man. Not long after proclaiming himself King of Heaven, he immediately submitted a letter of credence to Yecheng with the utmost humility, saying, "Liang and Qin have no blood feud. The borders between the two countries have been determined for a long time. There are dangerous mountains and rivers in Guanzhong. Although there are millions of people in Guanzhong, The army cannot be defeated. It is the plan of the King of Liang. It is better to stop the army and make peace. Moreover, my father is an old friend of the King of Liang. The two families should form a good relationship to fight against foreign enemies. The most powerful enemy of Liang is Yan, not Qin. I still hope that my uncle will Mingjian.”

Strength determines status, and Fu Jian's call as an uncle is not unfair.

"As expected of Fu Xiong's son, it's a blessing to see Guanzhong fall into the hands of this man." Chang Wei said with emotion.

"Three years earlier, this man would have been a formidable enemy. Unfortunately, Daliang is not what it used to be, and this man rebelled and succeeded, so there will be future troubles." Wang Meng spent a winter recuperating, and his mental and physical condition are both good.

During the few months he was recuperating, Fang Mo, Hao Lue, Tian Xie and others took over the responsibility, and Sili Xiaowei's house was in order both inside and outside.

A system has been formed according to Li Yue's wishes.

From now on, when Wang Meng takes over, he doesn't have to do everything personally, he just needs to observe the general outline.

People's energy is limited. They want to do everything well, but often they can't do anything well.

"Since Xu Cheng and Gao Yun cannot capture Puban Tongguan, let them retreat. There is no point in fighting anymore." Li Yue's original intention was just to hit with dates but no dates. Fu Jian was watertight, so there was no need to fight. .

After several years of development, the wounds left by the war in the Central Plains are gradually healing.

Liang's national strength also flourished, becoming the best in the world.

However, it does not yet have the strength to unify the northern kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom in the north is still strong.

As long as Murong Ke does not fall, the Yan Kingdom will be able to hold it together.

Liang Guo could not spare any effort to march into Guanzhong before defeating Yan Guo.

"The innovation has begun to bear fruit. I think that if I save for another year, I can fight the Yan Kingdom decisively!" Wang Meng's character is just like his name.

He actually proposed the time for a decisive battle with Yan State so quickly.

"Oh? One year...can you be sure of victory?" Li Yue felt that he would have to save for three to five years, and then rely on the national power of the Central Plains to push forward and crush the Murong family...

Chang Wei didn't agree with it either, "China has a chance to fight, so we'll have a decisive battle next year. It's a bit hasty."

Wang Meng flicked his sleeves, "Fu Jian rises in Guanzhong, and Huan Wen cuts off Jiangdong. In less than five years, his strength will inevitably grow, and Yan, Qin, and Jin will besiege the Central Plains again. Just like when the six countries united to resist the powerful Qin, Wu, and Shu all faced off against Cao Wei. Even though Daliang had the national power to unify the world, it had no chance to unify the world. Therefore, I thought that we must fight decisively with Yan next year, at least drive Yan back to Liaodong, unify Guandong, and then unify hundreds of thousands of people. The army swings its sword to the west, attacks Guanzhong, and unifies the Northern Kingdom!"

A great talent is a great talent, he can see not only the present but also the future.

Liang Guo is developing, and others are not bad either.

Fu Jian's strategy can be seen from his letter.

There was also the Gengxu Tujuan promoted by Huan Wen, which greatly enhanced Jiangdong's strength.

Li Yue defeated Jiangdong, and the Heiyun Army reined in Jiangbei. It was Huan Wen who benefited the most, and Jingxiang and Jiangdong completed the integration.

In order to take a further step, Huan Wen would definitely make another expedition to the north.

The historical Gengxu Civil War laid a solid foundation for the Battle of Feishui and the Northern Expedition between Song and Wu.

Conquering the Central Plains has almost become the common interest of Yan, Qin and Jin.Murong Jun has not claimed the title of king until now. Fu Jian went to the emperor as soon as he came to power, just to unite Jiangdong in the future.

Li Yue glanced at Chang Wei.

Chang Wei cupped his hand and said, "The strategic plan of a landscape is rare to see in a hundred years!"

"Don't dare." Wang Meng returned the greeting.

Two of the three smartest people in Liang were here. They had no objections, so Li Yue made up his mind.

Although Murong's innovation failed, it would take at least eight or nine years to wait for his decline. Opportunities have always been reserved for active attackers. Without a head-on collision, Yan's broken ship could still stagger on.

"Then expand the army, store grain, build weapons, train soldiers, and prepare for the decisive battle next year!" Li Yue slapped his thigh.

The Liang State is now in a stable state. Even if it is defeated, there is still a chance to make a comeback. In the worst case scenario, it will retreat to the Central Plains, using the Yellow River to the north to resist the Yan State, the Huaihe River to the south to block Huan Wen, and the Wei Han to the west to reach Fujian.

With the current situation of Yan State, it cannot experience another major defeat.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there can only be one overlord in Guandong!
Only by acquiring the entire Kanto geographical plate can one truly rise.

"I think it is not appropriate to make it public, and only need to plot secretly. A sudden attack at that time will have miraculous effects. We will cultivate and cultivate the land. Everything will continue as usual. We will build ordnance day and night. The two iron houses of Xingyang and Shanyang can only be entered but not left. Hundreds of people have been moved away. The people within the territory are protected from prying eyes. As for the expansion of the army, I can leave it to you to go south to Yuzhou and train an elite force of 8 people in the name of the town army!"

Since Wang Meng proposed a decisive battle strategy, he naturally planned everything.

Henan and Yanzhou are the core areas of the Liang Kingdom and have a prosperous population. It is not difficult to recruit an army of [-].

Liang Guo has a population of more than 700 million and can support an army of 19, which is relatively easy.

The town army garrisoned the place, which was half-farmer and half-soldier, and consumed little money.

Of course, it is extremely difficult to create an elite force from scratch in one year. It requires Li Yue's full support and considerable national power.

"Great kindness!" Li Yue admired him in his heart.

According to what he said, Yan State would spit out Youzhou even if it didn't die.

Chang Wei twisted his beard and said: "Since it's a decisive battle, I guess Jing Lue must have a strategy to advance?"

People like Wang Meng have their heads spinning all the time and cannot really rest for a few months.

From this point of view, the right combination of work and rest is the right way.

Wang Meng said enthusiastically: "Haha, just as Chang Lingjun expected, I suggest marching in three ways. On the west route, I will lead [-] elite troops out of Yuzhou, go to Heluo, and go north to attack Bingzhou. On the middle route, Your Highness will lead the elite troops of Heiyun to march out of Juzhou. Lu, attack Zhongshan, and go to the east. Your Highness can send a large general to pretend to attack Shuzhou to intimidate Jicheng. Given the current situation of the Murong family, they can only defend Bingzhou and defend Xiangguo with heavy troops. After regaining Bingzhou, I will lead the army out of Taihang to attack with Your Highness. Youzhou, if this is the case, then the Yan Kingdom cannot care about each other, and it will definitely be defeated!"

Yan Guo's capture of Bingzhou turned out to be a burden. The originally long and narrow land became longer, and the defensive area increased by one-third.

Now it happens to be the strategic weakness of Yan State.

Coupled with the assistance of the Tuoba clan in the north, it will be difficult for Yan State to pass this level.

Li Yuechong bowed his hands to Wang Meng, "If that's the case, I'll have to trouble Lao Jinglue!"

"It is my long-cherished wish to help His Highness unify the Northern Kingdom and restore China. How can I talk about hard work?" Wang Meng returned the courtesy.
