Chapter 1157: Bian Wushuang's Analysis
"Occurrence, must attack!" Bian Wushuang, who was sitting in front of Min Ruoying, said calmly and honestly.
Bian Wushuang led his troops to Da Chu. For the Chu State, which is now in trouble with internal and external affairs, Wuyi was like taking a shot of stimulant. The government and the country were inexplicably excited, and it seemed that they had regained the position of the second place in the world during the Minwei period.
The previous defeat caused Chu's vitality to be severely damaged, and hundreds of thousands of eastern border troops were destroyed. If Cheng Wuben had not decided to lead tens of thousands of troops under his command to escape from the battlefield, flee back to Jinghu, and build a second line of defense, maybe the Chu State would have been in full swing now.
But even so, the situation facing Chu State is still very dangerous. The losses of the 200,000 eastern border troops cannot be compensated. However, the savings of Chu State for decades, it is not something that can be done in a short time.
In order to shorten this process as much as possible, Cheng Wuben, who had a deep heart with Min Ruoying, took advantage of the last troops in Dachu who are now in control of the powerful combat power and the advantages of being on the front line, and desperately concentrated the resources of the whole country to the Jinghu line, constantly expanding the army, and constantly reserving materials.
Cheng Wuben's behavior now is indeed like a treacherous minister. He doesn't take Min Ruoying seriously at all, and he has the intention of turning against each other when he has disagreement. But at this moment, Min Ruoying can only knock her teeth and swallow it.
First, the Fire Phoenix Army that he has mastered now can only control the capital and the surrounding core areas. This is the heart of Da Chu, and it must not be lost.
Secondly, Cheng Wuben suddenly became arrogant and domineering. His ultimate goal was to gather the strength of the whole country and rebuild a solid line of defense to defend the Chu State. His goal was the same as Min Ruoying, but his methods made Min Ruoying hated him even more.
In Min Ruoying's opinion, the current line of Jinghu and the increasingly large army there would not be any hello from him, the emperor, and this is absolutely untolerated.
The intention of killing Cheng Wuben is that Min Ruoying is better than one day in his heart.
Is Cheng Wuben loyal or treacherous? What is that important is whether you are loyal to the emperor! But it is obvious that Min Ruoying does not have this status in Cheng Wuben's heart.
Min Ruoying also knew this very clearly. During the late emperor period, Cheng Wuben was considered a member of the former crown prince. He admired the former crown prince Min Ruocheng's mature and steady national policy, and always opposed Min Ruoying's strategy of advancing. Later, when Min Ruoying came to power, Cheng Wuben was immediately removed from military power.
Unfortunately, Luo Liang, who was supported by the power, was not a commander. Although Cheng Wuben has aroused great anger in other places in Da Chu, his prestige among the people is really not low. After all, it was because of this person that Chu tried hard to maintain his current status. Although he lost the six eastern counties, most of the territory was still under the control of Da Chu.
Once Cheng Wuben is killed, will it cause changes in the morale of the army along Jinghu and lead to the collapse of the entire defense line? It is a question that Min Ruoying has to consider.
Bian Wushuang's visit made Min Ruoying finally see the opportunity to kill Cheng Wuben.
"Now with the national strength of our Great Chu, can we have a chance to win if we attack?" Min Ruoying asked back. In fact, he knew very well that if he attacked rashly and suffered another big defeat, the State of Chu would be really over.
"Your Majesty, now is the best time!" Bian Wushuang looked at Min Ruoying with confidence: "If you miss this opportunity and the current situation of Da Chu has not changed significantly, then Da Chu is in trouble."
"How do you say it?" Min Ruoying took a deep breath. People like Bian Wushuang naturally would not be talking nonsense. What he said must have a basis, and his views must also be based on his judgment of the current situation.
"Your Majesty, let's talk about Qi first." Bian Wushuang said confidently. "Although our Great Chu is full of dangers, the huge Qi State is also internal and external troubles, but their crisis is hidden under their military front. The Qi army maintains strong pressure on our Great Chu, which makes many people in our Great Chu see that the Great Qi, which is not present, are actually fierce and weak on the inside."
"For the outside world, although they won the victory in the Great Chu War, they lost a lot in the war against the Ming Dynasty. The occupied territory of Forbidden Yue was forced to return it to the Ming Dynasty. Outside Zhaoguan, Qi could only try to maintain its defensive momentum. The cavalry and scouts of the Ming Dynasty entered and exited the Qi territory as if they were no one. The Ming Dynasty's general Wu Ling provoked many times, but the Qi army had no response, which fully demonstrated that Qi was now in poor strength and could not make effective responses."
When Bian Wushuang heard this, Min Ruoying's face was so ugly. You know, it was because the Ming army defeated the Qi people at that time, which strengthened his intention to invade Qi. But in the end, he was cheated by the Ming and Qi countries. The Qi people were defeated and returned a large area of land to the Ming people, but transferred the vitality to him and captured the 200,000 troops of Chu in one battle. This was his greatest shame, but at this time, Bian Wushuang was exposed in blood.
Holding his anger, Min Ruoying did not have an attack because he heard Bian Wushuang's implicit sound, that is, Qi State was not as strong as he imagined.
"The army of Qi is not unbeatable, just find a suitable opportunity." Bian Wushuang ignored Min Ruoying's mood," and the most important thing is the current internal affairs of Qi. Emperor Qi is committed to domestic reforms and takes back wealth and power from the wealthy families that control the place. Through the past two years of hard work, he has indeed been approaching success step by step. In the territory of Qi, a large number of wealthy families were eradicated. Emperor Qi is becoming stronger step by step, and he is becoming stronger and stronger, but it is precisely because of this that within Qi
Those rich families with huge strength in the local area will be even more frightened and their desire to resist will be stronger. No one will be willing to give up their interests and make themselves fish on the chopping board. If Cao Tiancheng succeeds, there will be no more wealthy families and no more aristocratic families in the Qi realm, and all the power will be concentrated in the hands of the imperial court. At that time, Qi was the most terrifying. The broad area, huge population base, and a large amount of wealth regained from the wealthy family will be invincible at that time."
"You mean, there is a possibility of civil strife in Qi State?" Min Ruoying's eyes flashed.
"Yes, but now the Emperor of Qi is strong, and there are only signs of civil strife, and they are still trying hard to cover up. Their spokesperson is still fighting with the emperor in the court, but it is obvious that Cao Tiancheng is determined, so this kind of struggle in the court will eventually end with Cao Tiancheng's victory. So, if we launch a firm offensive at this time, it will detonate this kind of resistance in Qi like a fuse."
"I understand what you mean. Our large-scale attack will allow Qi to invest more troops on the front line of fighting with us, so that Qi's pressure on the country will no longer be enough, which will allow those tyrants who are willing to rebel to see the opportunity to resist."
"Yes, Your Majesty. Perhaps their purpose is just to overthrow Cao Tiancheng and replace him with an emperor, but as long as they start to resist, our purpose will be achieved. Or we will have some difficulties in the beginning of the war, but as long as this kind of sign in Qi explodes, the form we face will be better and better day by day." Bian Wushuang analyzed.
"It makes sense." Min Ruoying turned around and looked at the huge map hanging on the wall. A six eastern counties with black coils were his heart-wrenching pain.
"Another explanation of the country." Bian Wushuang cleared his throat and spoke again: "Unlike Qi State, Qin Feng did not have the dilemma that Cao Tiancheng faced. Qianyue was not big, and there were not many wealthy families in China. After the repeated rebellion of Molo, Luo Yishui, Chen Ci and others, these wealthy families were basically wiped out. The rest were honestly lowered their heads to Qin Feng and handed over the power in their hands. Therefore, in terms of the structure of the court and the execution of the court's policies, the Ming State was much stronger than Qi State. The whole country clenched into a fist, twisted into a rope, and used their lives. This is the reason why the Ming State was invincible and the reason why the Qin State was defeated in their hands. Speaking of which, the Ming State was more terrifying than Qi State."
Min Ruoying's breathing became significantly heavier.
"But now the Ming Dynasty is also facing his own problems. Although they have annexed most of the Qin territory, the Qin State's hundreds of years of accumulation has also fallen on them. It will take only one day to resolve these contradictions. Moreover, Yongduke is not that easy to fight. As far as I know, Qin Emperor Ma can rely on the 50,000 Thunder Army in his hand to mobilize at least 100,000 young and strong people in Yongdu to participate in the Warring States War."
"Can they hold on?"
Bian Wushuang shook his head: "I can't defend it, because Yongdu has now become an isolated city. Whether he can defend it for one year or two years, he will eventually fail."
Min Ruoying sighed.
"The annexation of Qin by Ming State has become an indisputable fact and is no longer something that manpower can change. It is precisely because I saw this that I resolutely abandoned Qin State and defected to Da Chu." Bian Wushuang said: "The Ming State has a big weakness, that is, it is that it has risen too fast and has insufficient foundation. Therefore, after taking Qin State, it takes longer to digest it. During this period, they will not expand outward, so the foreign policy of the Ming State during this period must be slow. For our Da Chu, the Ming State at this stage is not threatening."
"What about the future?"
