Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 662 Beast

The war in Liangzhou was led by Wang Meng, and Li Yue was not worried.

The group of Yi Di in the northwest are no match, let alone Fu Ya, Murong Chui, Wei Shan, Zhang Hao, Lu Guang, Murong Ling, Liu Laozhi, Zhuge Kan and other generals.

It was enough to plow Liangzhou three or four times.

Li Yue's thoughts were on the south during this period.

There are more and more secret reports from Yang Lue. After releasing the prisoners last time, he won the hearts of Jing Xiang.

In addition, Huan Wen was hit hard by Deng Xia, his reputation plummeted, and his military morale was scattered.

A commander who cannot lead his soldiers to defeat the enemy will inevitably be despised by his soldiers.

The Jiangdong scholars and people became more and more resentful towards Huan Wen.

However, the military power was still in the hands of the Huan family, and with Huan Wen's remaining power in the past, no one dared to act rashly for a while.

The Jiangdong gentry wanted to weaken Huan Wen, not destroy him.

In the current situation, Huan Wen certainly has selfish motives, but Jiang Dong also relies on him to support the situation. If he falls, Jiang Dong will also collapse.

The target of infiltration by the School Affairs Office and the Honglu Division was not the Jiangdong nobles, but the Jin army at the bottom.

Yang Lue has been dormant in Xiangyang for more than two years, and has achieved considerable results and won over many people.

Honglusi's storytellers were all-pervasive, further weakening the legitimacy of the Jiangdong court, and at the same time making Liang Guo popular among the people.

"If we can capture Xiangyang, we can recreate the situation in which the former Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu Dynasty!" Chang Wei looked happy after reading the secret report.

The unification of the north and the south is the long-cherished wish of many people.

"At this moment, Wang Jun's boat sailed down to the east of the Yangtze River. He borrowed the power of Shuzhong. Now Shuzhong is in ruins, and generals Zhu Xu and Zhou Chu are blocked in the sword pavilion. One man can guard the gate and ten thousand others can't open it." Li Yue said for the time being. I don't have much interest in Shuzhong.

After taking it, we still need to send people to manage and defend it. I don’t know how long it will take until the end of the year of the monkey.

As long as the important town of Xiangyang is conquered, the entire Jingzhou can be conquered.

At that time, Shuzhong will be the fish on the chopping board.

"Hahaha, my military strategy cannot be compared with your Majesty's." Chang Wei corrected him in time, and also secretly praised Li Yue.

"You are being too modest." Li Yue laughed.

If Xiangyang is not in a hurry, with Huan Wen in Jiangdong holding the airs and Xie An coordinating the internal and external affairs, it can last for a few more years.

Liang Guo is not ready either, and has been hampered by Liangzhou so far.

So Li Yue asked Yang Lue to continue infiltrating.

Huan Wen failed in the Northern Expedition, and he very wisely admitted his mistake and increased his annual grain by 10%.

Liang Jin restored the relationship between the upper and lower states, and Jiangdong became more respectful than ever.

The impact of this battle was far-reaching. Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, Japan, and even Linyi further south all sent envoys to Luo to express their surrender and willingness to become vassals.

There is no doubt that Daliang has completely become the orthodoxy in the world.

Every time Huan Wen went to the north, he always brought some unexpected gains.

Among them, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Japan repeatedly requested Li Yue to restrain pirates.

They have been heavily harassed by pirates in recent years. The people along the coast have been displaced and their fields have been destroyed. The plundered people have been sent to Liaodong as slaves to speed up the development of Liaodong.

Li Yue ignored it and let them figure it out on their own.

Lu Dun's navy on Tamna Island has grown to a large scale. In the past few years, he has been continuously infiltrating the Japanese country. He has figured out the location of the Japanese gold mines and is preparing for a big one.

Lu Dun is indeed a figure who left a mark in the history books. Several hundred warriors dared to advance into the hinterland of the Japanese country to explore the terrain and mineral deposits.

They burned, killed, raped and plundered all the way, committing all kinds of crimes and feeding war with war. The Japanese were frightened by the news and could only defend the city and did not dare to go out to fight, which made the Japanese bandits panic.

The Japanese sent a large army to attack, but Lu Dun turned around and left, taking a boat to change places and come again...

Li Yue was amazed by the accusations sent by the Japanese envoy.    Historically, Chinese pirates were actually very fierce.

Wang Zhi, the captain of the Wufeng ship in the Ming Dynasty, named himself "King of Pure Sea" and "King of Hui". Based on the Japanese port of Hirado, he had hundreds of thousands of people and countless warships. The "island barbarians" who controlled the thirty-six islands had influence all over the world. RB and Southeast Asia...

Zheng Zhilong, the father of Zheng Chenggong, was the overlord of the East China Sea. He defeated the Dutch East India Company fleet at the Battle of Kinmen and dominated the entire Southeast Asian trade. When Western fleets passed by, they had to pay protection fees honestly.

However, these two people were probably at sea all year round and had too much water in their minds. They chose to believe in the Ming and Qing courts...

In the late Qing Dynasty, Zheng Yisao also traveled across the South China Sea.

Others include Sun En, Xu Daofu, Fang Guozhen, Chen Zuyi, etc. These are all recorded in history books, and there are many more that have not been recorded.

China has never lacked strong men, but historians have always focused on the trivial affairs of the emperors, generals and prime ministers’ families, and rarely paid attention to the sea. If these people had not affected the current situation at that time, I am afraid they would not have been recorded in the history books...

After all, Lu Dun was also born in the Lu family of Fan Yang. He had learned poetry, etiquette, benevolence, justice and morality since he was a child. He didn't expect that he would turn into a beast as soon as he left home.

But Li Yue likes to use people like this.

"It has been half a year since we proposed the use of troops last year. Within ten days, good news will come back from Liangzhou." Chang Wei turned the topic to the battle of Liangzhou.

Counting the time, Wang Meng should have already entered the territory of Liangzhou.

Maybe Liangzhou has been turned upside down now.

"Wang Jinglue has never disappointed me." Li Yue suddenly became worried about Li Jian.

I don't know if he can pass this test.

A young man who has never seen anything in the world faces a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood...

But everyone in this era has lived like this, so why should he be an exception?

Especially the prince, he must not be merciful. This is the real reason why Li Yue agreed to his past.

An accomplished emperor does not have to be a good person, let alone a saint who talks about benevolence, justice and morality.

This is also a test for him.

Everyone has their own hurdles to pass, and it is never a good thing for a person to have a smooth life.

A few days later, the good news from Liangzhou was indeed sent back.

Tufa Sifuzhen and Tuobagu turned around and attacked Guzang with tens of thousands of cavalry. The Salmons in the city responded to the attack, but Fu Ya was prepared. Three thousand forwards of the rebel army entered the city and fell into Fu Ya's ambush circle. No one escaped.

Then Mao Sheng and Liang Xi led an elite Di army to attack, defeating Bald Sifu and killing more than 4,000 people.

Fortunately, Tuoba Gu worked hard to rescue him and avoided the annihilation of the entire army.

The two evacuated overnight.

Wang Meng's army entered Guzang, uprooted the monks, killed more than 3,700 monks and believers, confiscated the monks' property, and obtained more than 250,000 stones of grain, more than 70,000 livestock, tens of millions of money and silk, and farmland. , the industry is difficult to clean up in a short period of time.

Thirteen powerful families were implicated.

But the more ruthless Wang Meng was, the more tribes came to surrender.

Wang Meng ordered Fu Ya to continue to defend the city, and took Prince Li Jian with his army to continue westward. Everywhere he passed, he cleared the area.

For a time, Liangzhou was filled with heads and blood flowed into rivers.

At the same time, Murong Chui and the begging Si Fan, a total of more than 16,000 people, entered Hehuang. After three battles and three victories, they reached the gates of the Western Capital.

Kangning defended the city.

The first phase of the Liangzhou War is over.

There weren't too many bumps in the road, it was completely pushed through, and the enemy was completely defeated even before Wang Meng's army actually took action.
