Chapter 686: Two things to do now

Murong Hong's current imperial palace is the former Ningyuan County Magistrate's Mansion. Compared with the other four countries on this continent, it is undoubtedly extremely shabby, and even the mansions of some wealthy families are far inferior. But Murong Hong didn't care. Compared with the place he once called the imperial palace deep in the mountains, it has now greatly improved.

In the mountains, almost all the barbarians lived in wooden houses, bamboo houses, thatched houses or caves. Even if he was the emperor of Dayan, he just polished the stones and built some rough houses, painted with yellow paint, and claimed to be the imperial palace.

What is important is not the residence, but the power in hand. Murong Hong is very clear about this. As long as he has enough strength in his hand, he can still call the wind and rain even if he lives in a shack.

Just like Li Zhi of Qin, he lived in a small thatched hut on Gushan all his life, but he was famous all over the world. In Qin, he had more prestige than the emperor.

"Teacher, there is such a worm in my stomach. I feel very uncomfortable when I think about it!" Standing in front of the map, the black charcoal pen circled the four counties in the north and the mountains behind me. At first glance, the territory was even better than that in Yue Kingdom. Murong Hong poked Fuyuan's place with his finger and pointed at Wanquan Road.

Flirting with his long beard, Wanquan smiled faintly: "Your Majesty, since it is a pest that harms the body, it must be done with seriousness."

"I can't wait." Murong Hong stared at the map excitedly.

"Hastyness means not reaching!" Looking at this disciple whom he taught, Wan Quan, a former down-and-out scholar from Yuejing City, advised: "Jiang Haokun has been in Fuyuan for many years. As an ambitious guy, he endured for many years and had been in charge for many years. Fuyuan is full of his confidants. Even if the people are in his heart, he is on his side. Your Majesty, taking action rashly may cause trouble between the two sides. Even if we can swallow it with our current ability, it will always hurt some vitality. Fuyuan is the center of the four counties. If it is in chaos, even if we take it down, it will be a big trouble. Therefore, we have to do it step by step."

"How much time does this take?" Murong Hong sighed: "Follow me, it's the most bento for the army to fight!"

"If we rush our troops to attack Jiang Haokun, we will only be happy with the Ming army on the border. The fisherman will benefit from the snipe and clam fight. We cannot make wedding clothes for others. As for how far it has been done, you have to ask Murong Jing."

Murong Jing coughed lightly: "Your Majesty, Jiang Haokun's life has been difficult since his defeat, especially Jiang Lai's death, which is a very important blow to him. Jiang Haokun's own son is not very angry. Jiang Lai is his nephew and the number one strong general under his command, but he was killed on the spot by the Ming army in the battle of Luohe. This is a huge loss for Jiang Haokun. The connection between several defeats has made Jiang Haokun's little wealth accumulated over the years have gone."

"So I have always tended to move troops directly and swallow him in one mouthful. As long as the plan is right and one blow is successful, I should be able to keep my caressing far away." Murong Hong exclaimed with a high-high.

"Your Majesty, although Jiang Haokun was defeated, he ruled Fuyuan for many years. Now Fuyuan still habitually obeyed his rule. Those foolish people did not know the mystery. In their opinion, Jiang Haokun was their heaven. But those who truly understand had naturally begun to find a way out for themselves." Murong Jing said.

"We are contacting these savvy people now." Murong Hong said with a smile.

"It is because these sensible people are the backbone who controls Fuyuan." Murong Jing said: "Now, we are almost emptying Jiang Haokun's foundation, and there is only the last hurdle left, that is the army."

Wan Quan nodded slightly: "Although only the army is left, it is the most critical place. After the last great defeat, Jiang Haokun began to recruit soldiers in the county on a large scale. Although the other three counties in the north were under our control, because these Yue people were afraid of us, there were many people who fled to Fuyuan. After these people escaped, their lives were difficult, and most of them joined the army to have enough food. This made Jiang Haokun's army expand than before the war."

"A group of grass chickens, tiles and dogs." Murong Hong laughed and said, "I'm afraid that when I go to the battlefield, when the war drums sound and the horns blow, they will piss off."

"Although that's the case, this is also a force that cannot be ignored. Your Majesty, if these troops can be used by us, our strength will increase greatly. Under Jiang Haokun, they are sheep, but if they fall into our hands, can't we turn them into wolves?" Wan Quan smiled and said, "It depends on who is taking them, don't you?"

"This is the most important thing. I think Murong Kang was defeated by the Ming army last year, but later he went to a Tuobayan, and only brought more than a thousand cavalry. The news spread frequently. Although they fought for some small battles, their ability to command troops was remarkable. I read their military newspaper. The Tuobayan was unconventional and flexible. If you train them well, you will become a general of my Dayan in time." Murong Hong couldn't help but praise him when he mentioned Tuobayan.

"This is your blessing." Murong Jing laughed. He brought this Tuobayan back from Yuejing City. At that time, he just thought that this guy was bold and meticulous, and his martial arts cultivation was not bad, but he never expected that Tuobayan would have good talents in commanding the army after returning. For him, this was a privilege.

"So, you have already made a plan for their army." Murong Hong asked with a smile.

"Yes. As soon as Jiang Lai died, Jiang Haokun had to push his son Jiang Yuan, who was overwhelmed, to the front stage, but this made some of the generals under Jiang Haokun's original command dissatisfied. Although there was nothing in the Jiang tribe on the surface, in fact, it was already a rift, and it was just a little bit too hot. And we focused on the current number one general under Jiang Haokun." Murong Jing said.

"Yuan Pu!" Murong Hong blurted out, and Murong Hong knew very well about the important figures under Jiang Haokun.

"Yes, whenever Jianglai died, the army controlled by Yuanpu was the largest force among them. Yuanpu's army was severely damaged when attacking Tzu Chi, but its foundation was still there. Moreover, these remaining troops could also be called veterans after experiencing this war. After replenishment, their strength was no less than Jiang Haokun himself. This made Jiang Haokun feel relieved, so he vigorously supported his son, hoping to restrain Yuanpu. In terms of personnel replenishment, food and salary distribution, he gave Yuanpu everywhere, so that Yuanpu's army had caused trouble several times because they could not get food and salary in time. Yuanpu was extremely dissatisfied. We, as well as Qin Li, a Qi man, are all working hard on Yuanpu now. As long as Yuanpu turns to us, the matter of comforting the world will be settled." Wan Quan gently blew the foam in the tea bowl, and said calmly.

When Wan Quan mentioned Qin Li, Murong Hong's brows frowned slightly.

"Teacher, do you think, how credible is Qiren?"

Wanquan took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl, and looked at Murong Hong: "Your Majesty, the people of Qi can trust ten or not at all."

"How do you say this? How can this make sense?"

"Why did the Qi people help us?" Wan Quan looked at the two of them and asked back, and before they could answer, he continued: "Because I am fighting against the Ming people. What we want to seize is the Ming people's country. The Ming Dynasty has begun to show its strength under the rule of Qin Feng. A highly aggressive and warlike country is growing by the side of Qi, and this country has an indescribable relationship with the Qi enemy, Chu. The Qi people began to worry, so they are not helping us, but helping themselves. They hope that we can confront the Ming people for a long time and fight for a long time, which is the most in line with their interests. From this perspective, we can trust them ten."

"Where can't even start if that point is unreliable?" Murong Hong asked.

"It's very simple, it depends on ourselves." Wan Quan let out a heavy breath: "Qin Li is working hard now, running around, for why, to give us stronger strength, that is to say, the Qi people still think that our strength cannot be fought against the Ming people, so we must strengthen our strength. If we succeed in a battle and can form a real confrontation with the Ming people, then the support from the Qi people will be more and stronger, and even let them directly send troops to attack the Ming country's Shayang, Taiping City and other places. But if we are unbearable and are beaten by the Ming people without any strength to fight back, they will abandon us like vulgar clogs and will not even look at us more. In this regard, they are not trustworthy."

"I, Murong Hong, have always rely on myself and others, how can I succeed?" Murong Hong said with a grim smile: "The Qi people underestimate me so much. When I defeat Qin Feng and take down Ming Kingdom, I will let them know that our Dayan will only be more aggressive than the Ming people, and I will make them regret supporting me."

Wan Quan chuckled: "Your Majesty, that's what happened in the future. This is the case now. The Ming people surrounded us without fighting, and they have their own calculations and interests. Our strength is indeed not good now, but we are not powerless to fight back. If the Zhengyang thing is successful, we can catch Ming Kingdom off guard. As long as we can defeat Zhengyang and threaten Shayang, Qi Kingdom will inevitably be unable to suppress the troops to capture Shayang. As long as he sends troops, it will be difficult to stop the water and break up with Ming Kingdom. Only at that time can we really say that we have a chance to win. Now, the most important thing for us is to do two things well, one is to pull Zhengyang Li Wei and Ge Xiangshui, and join our camp. Second, knock out the roundworm in His Majesty's belly."

The three people in the room all burst into laughter.
