"Hao'er, according to your judgment, how likely is it that a war will break out in a short period of time between Dachu and Tianlang, or between Dachu and the Seven Kingdoms?" Since Mu Xingchen came today to cause a war, Yang Hongyi

He decided to simply have a good chat with his children and grandchildren about the war.

"Grandpa, my grandson thinks it's very possible." Yang Hao replied without hesitation.

"Oh? Hao'er, are you so sure?" Yang Hongyi was a little curious.

In the past few years, Yang Hongyi has clearly seen what Yang Hao has done, and has discussed it many times with Yang Hao. Yang Hongyi knows Yang Hao's attitude towards war best. What Yang Hao wants,

It has always been about how to avoid war. Many of the things Yang Hao did were also to avoid war.

"Grandpa, father, mother, I have some ideas. Please take a look at them." Yang Hao said solemnly. The matter involved war, so he couldn't help but be cautious.

Yang Hongyi and Yang Yanping also looked at Yang Hao with solemn expressions.

"There are several reasons why I think the possibility of war is very high." Yang Hao sorted out his thoughts and said: "First, the Seven-Nation Alliance itself is a military alliance. What they pursue is the law of the jungle.

The weak prey on the strong. Since the invasion of Dachu a hundred years ago, seven

The country's conquests have not stopped. Its surrounding countries have either been directly annexed by the seven countries, or have become vassals of the seven countries. The best-situated countries have been suppressed by the seven countries and are struggling to survive. As long as this alliance still exists, they will not

The war will stop. Otherwise, this alliance will no longer have the value of existing.

Secondly, a hundred years ago, the Seven Kingdoms invaded Da Chu and forced Chu to cede territory and pay compensation. The Seven Kingdoms were like wolves. They would not forget the taste of flesh and blood after they had eaten people. The reason why they went everywhere to conquer

The same is true. Da Chu will not forget the humiliation a hundred years ago, but the Seven Kingdoms will not forget the war blood they drank in Da Chu a hundred years ago. They have always been eyeing Da Chu.

Thirdly, the Seven Kingdoms have been engaged in military warfare in recent years, and various domestic conflicts have intensified. Their leaders are all worried. In order to divert the attention of their domestic people, the Seven Kingdoms need to fight one foreign war after another. This time the Seven Kingdoms

The joint use of troops against Northern Qi was one of the reasons.

Fourth, several countries among the Seven Kingdoms, including Tianlang, have suffered from natural disasters in recent years. The people in the country have been in hardship, and hungry people often revolt. The Seven Kingdoms are predatory, and they will inevitably pin their hopes on war. Northern Qi has a vast territory.

, rich in products, so it has become the target of the Seven Kingdoms this time. Compared with Northern Qi, our Da Chu is only stronger but not weaker, so naturally it makes the Seven Kingdoms covet it.

Fifth, after generations of hard work, our country, Chu, has become increasingly powerful, but it is also becoming increasingly jealous. The performance of the seven countries over the years has proven that they have always liked to use their own logic to judge other countries, and they often judge gentlemen with the heart of a villain.

The belly of my country will definitely not be able to tolerate our great Chu getting stronger and stronger."

After saying these five points, Yang Hao stopped and looked at his grandfather and parents.

Yang Hongyi and Yang Yanping fell into deep thought at the same time.

After a long time, Yang Hongyi let out a long sigh and said: "Hao'er, what you said makes sense. However, if the war ends, all lives will be ruined again!"

After sighing, Yang Hongyi then asked: "Hao'er, how long do you think this short period of time will be?"

At this time, Yang Hao lowered his head slightly and fell into thinking. Not only did a lot of information he had obtained flash through his mind, but also a lot of information about the world on Earth flashed through his mind.

After a while, Yang Hao raised his head and said, "Grandpa, my grandson feels that when the Seven Kingdoms will launch their troops against Chu will depend to a large extent on the progress of the war in Northern Qi."

"Oh? Hao'er, what you mean is that the Seven Kingdoms will not send troops to Da Chu until the Battle of Northern Qi is over?" Yang Yanping asked.

"Dad, although the seven countries are now united to use troops against Northern Qi, the one that sends the most troops is Golden Crow, followed by Tianlang. As for the other five countries, because they are far away from Northern Qi, the actual number of troops they send is limited. What they provide is more

Food, weapons and horses.

In terms of military strength, among the seven kingdoms in the invasion of Northern Qi, only Jinwu fought with all the strength of the country. The troops sent by Tianlang were mainly led by the king of the East Courtyard, and very few troops were sent by the West Courtyard and the North Courtyard. Mu Tianhao's

Not even a single soldier was sent out from the South Courtyard. If the Seven Kingdoms were to use troops against our great Chu at this moment, it would not be a problem for them to mobilize enough troops.

However, the war is not only about military strength, but also national strength. The biggest problem of the seven countries now is precisely national strength.

This time the Seven Kingdoms started the war with the Golden Crow provocation. The original plan was to gather the power of the Seven Kingdoms to quickly break through the Northern Qi defense line. If this could be done, even if the Seven Kingdoms could not completely annex the Northern Qi, they could repeat their old tricks.

, forcing the Northern Qi Dynasty to sign an alliance under the city, ceding territory and paying compensation, achieving one of the main purposes of the Seven Kingdoms war.

However, the Seven Kingdoms misjudged Northern Qi's fighting strength. After Northern Qi fought for a whole year, the Seven Kingdoms' national strength was unsustainable. This is why Mu Tianhao came to ask for food this time. "

"Hao'er, so the seven countries are unable to launch another war in the short term?" Yang Yanping asked again.

"Dad, theoretically yes. However, what worries me is that the Seven Kingdoms will jump over the wall in a hurry." Yang Hao said.

"How do you say that?" Yang Yanping asked.

"After a year of fierce fighting, the seven countries have spent countless amounts and are already riding a tiger. The opposition voices in each country are getting louder and louder. If they stop fighting and return without success, the leaders of each country may have difficulty in explaining to their citizens. What I am worried about is,

The Seven Kingdoms made a desperate move and took the risk and turned to attack Chu.

After all, in terms of military strength and combat power, Tianlang's army is much better than the Golden Crow. Moreover, there is only a buffer zone between Tianlang and Dachu. The cavalry can charge to the Yanmen Pass with just one charge. From the supply

Speaking of which, the Seven Kingdoms are also easier." Yang Hao said.

"Son, the Seven Kingdoms have already suffered enough in the Northern Qi Dynasty. They won't be so crazy that they start a war with me, Dachu, right? Now, Mu Tianhao doesn't know the combat power of our Ningyuan officers and soldiers. Just at Yanmen Pass, the Qi Kingdom

If the country dares to invade, they will have no chance of scaling the city wall of Yanmen except for piling corpses. How many people will die, those in the court of the Seven Kingdoms will not know how many people will die?" Lin Hongyu frowned.

"Mom, the people in the Seven Kingdoms Court know better than anyone how many casualties there will be. However, it won't be them or their families who die. Those people won't care." Yang Hao said with a bitter smile.

.

At this moment, countless worlds flashed through Yang Hao's mind.

In those worlds, among the elites of those warlike countries, who doesn’t know the consequences of war?

However, as Yang Hao said, it will never be the elites or their families who die. Those people will always only care about their own interests. As long as the chair under their buttocks is not lost, they will win the battle.

, regardless of defeat, those people will always gain huge benefits from it.

For a moment, the room fell into silence, and the atmosphere was quite depressing.

"Hao'er, do you think that war is imminent?" After a while, Yang Hongyi finally spoke. His expression was very solemn.

"Grandpa, winter is about to begin, and the land of Northern Qi has already been freezing. Both sides are suffering. However, Northern Qi has a favorable geographical location and an advantage in supplies. If they continue to fight, the Seven Kingdoms Allied Forces will freeze to death, not to mention battle losses.

Countless people will starve to death. Sun'er estimates that the Seven Kingdoms are likely to withdraw their troops from Northern Qi, unless..." Yang Hao pondered for a moment.

"Son, what else?" Lin Hongyu couldn't help but feel a little anxious when she saw that Yang Hao suddenly stopped when he reached the key point.

"Mom, unless the Seven Kingdoms can see hope of victory soon." Yang Hao said.

"Hao'er, you mean, Northern Qi lost?" Yang Hongyi frowned.

"Yes, grandpa. If Northern Qi suddenly loses, the Seven Kingdoms will definitely continue to fight." Yang Hao said.

"The Northern Qi Dynasty lost? Hao'er, you mean, the food supply was cut off?" Yang Yanping said.

"Yes, dad, there is no food. Northern Qi has been fighting for a year, and its domestic grain reserves are already insufficient. If we, Ningyuan, had not stopped the grain trade with Northern Qi, Northern Qi would have been unable to survive." Yang Hao said.

"Hao'er, absolutely not! We absolutely can't do things like beggar-thy-neighbor! We can't even do things that harm our friends!" Lin Hongyu glared at Yang Hao and scolded.

"Mom, is my child like that? I'm just talking about things," Yang Hao said with a wry smile.

After that, Yang Hao continued: "Grandpa, father, mother, you have also seen that Mu Tianhao came here earlier, firstly to ask for food, and secondly to ask us to stop supplying food to Northern Qi. Mu Tianhao's trip

If it fails, next, the seven countries will most likely send envoys directly to negotiate with our country, Chu, to force us to stop the grain trade with Northern Qi."

As soon as Yang Hao said this, the room suddenly fell into silence again. Yang Hongyi and Yang Yanping both frowned and remained silent.

Although they have been stationed in Ningyuan these years, and Yang Hongyi has long since retired, the three of them are also aware of the affairs in the Chu court. If the Seven Kingdoms really send envoys directly to Danyang to negotiate, what will be the outcome of this matter?

, it’s really hard to say.

At this juncture, even if Da Chu just gives in and suspends the grain trade with Bei Qi, it may be a disaster for Bei Qi.

However, if Da Chu refuses to give in on this matter, if the Seven Kingdoms jump over the wall in a hurry, the twenty years of peace in the western border of Da Chu may be broken.

"Grandpa, father, mother, you don't have to worry too much about this matter. What the child said is just a case, and it may not really happen." Seeing his grandfather and parents acting like this, Yang Hao comforted him again.

.

"Hao'er, don't take it lightly. You have to be prepared to deal with the worst situation." Yang Yanping said solemnly.

"Dad, don't worry. Although my son has never advocated war, he is not afraid of war. Dad, you are the commander-in-chief of our Ningyuan, and you know the situation of our Ningyuan best. Our officers and soldiers of Ningyuan are always in a state of preparation for war. Just in case.

If the fight really breaks out, I have absolute confidence that the Seven Kingdoms will be defeated and sink outside Yanmen Pass." Yang Hao said.

"Son, please stop fooling your father! Aren't you the one who made the decision about Ning Yuan in the past few years? Tell me, if there was a fight, where would you get such confidence?" Lin Hongyu glared at Yang Hao again.

"Mom, don't be anxious! Don't be anxious!" Seeing his mother glaring at him again, Yang Hao quickly put on a smile.
