When people are in trouble, their will will inevitably be shaken. If there is a seemingly good choice, they will be more easily tempted than other times.
Xianyu merged into Zhongshan Kingdom, and there was nothing wrong with Qiuyou, Zhongshan Kingdom, and Xianyu becoming one. How could there not be multiple factions in a large collective?
Therefore, let alone the ethnic groups like Beidi who are initially pursuing the system, isn't it true that within the civilization of Jin State, whose system is far more advanced than that of Beidi, each family is independent as an individual unit?
Zhiyao has never forgotten the saying that "war is subordinate to politics". The enemy can be defeated by diplomatic means, not necessarily by force.
"It seems that it is not difficult to destroy the Zhongshan Kingdom. Occupation must be carried out. How to achieve long-term peace and stability is the biggest problem." Zhiyao thought to herself.
Zhongshan Kingdom will definitely perish this time, and Zhiyao is already thinking about the long future.
Destroying a country without occupying the land is useless.
After destroying that country and then supporting a puppet, it would be a good option to eliminate the die-hard elements over a period of time. Most of the bloody hatred caused in the process will be attributed to the puppet. After using the puppet and then eliminating it, it may be possible. To win people's hearts...read a book
This kind of routine is not new to modern times. Chu State, which got up early in the Spring and Autumn Period, had already played it very smoothly.
Zhiyao planned to play a trick on Beidi, so it became necessary to absorb some old powerful people. How could he not use diplomatic means?
Now Jin is on the side with the overall advantage. For the Beidi people, the slightest kindness in giving alms, even if they know it is harmful, is an opportunity for them to save their lives and even continue to live an excellent life.
"Ji You seems to be about to break through to the east." Zhiyao said with melancholy at this time.
Generally speaking, the Northern Expedition seemed to be going smoothly, but many things were beyond Zhiyao's initial control.
Zhiyao originally wanted to give the Han family, Hu family and other families more opportunities to make meritorious deeds, so she placed them on the frontal battlefield. Who would have thought that Zhao Guanji would do something wrong, and Zheng was willing, and the choice was theirs. In one's own hands.
The seasonal climate is like that. It rains again and again. The movements of the foreign coalition forces are becoming more and more obvious, and the Zhi family has also begun to harass in the rain.
The first big commotion occurred on Han Buxin's side.
Han Buxin dispatched a "division" of the Han family and gave orders to the heads of the families under his command. They launched a new round of large-scale attacks despite the bad weather along the way. However, they were affected by the weather and the road conditions were really bad. , the casualties paid in the fight will definitely be greater than normal.
Later, Wei Chi probably saw the Southern Route Army working so hard, and developed a stronger competitive mentality. He gritted his teeth and started a new round of offensive.
So, what was supposed to be a long siege battle, but as Ji You couldn't stand the constant surrender of people to the Zhi family, the battle situation once again changed fundamentally.
One day.
Zhishi once again accepted a group of surrendered troops, and Zaiyu, who was in charge of diplomatic relations, urgently found Zhiyao.
"Your Majesty, the enemy is breaking out to the east or is it a deception?" Zaiyu said.
After Zaiyu finished speaking, he saw Zhiyao's calm face and said in surprise: "The prince already knows?"
Zi Lu, who happened to be present, saw that Zhiyao had no desire to answer and said, "The eldest son of the Wei family has returned."
The terrain on the east side of the battlefield is very complex, especially with many mountain streams.
Under good weather conditions, the army may not end well if it rushes in, let alone during the continuous rainy season.
Zhishi, who was blocked in the west, was not easy to deal with at first glance, and Zhishi didn't seem to be relaxing at all. Ji You, who was driven mad, chose to break out to the west.
To the south? What if the foreign coalition forces successfully break through to that side? They go to the Jin State's sphere of influence and make a big circle, wreak havoc to their heart's content and then get killed?
On the other hand, the situation of the Wei clan in the north was almost the same as that of the foreign coalition forces, and the Wei clan's combat effectiveness was severely reduced due to the influence of terrain and weather. The foreign coalition forces had the greatest chance of succeeding in breaking out from the north.
Once Ji You leads the army to successfully break through, try to recapture "Xianyu" city, or turn northeast and run to "Qiongyu Hill", or run through Wutai Mountain to Loufan. Anyway, there are comparisons.
Lots of choices.
What if Jiyou chooses to go to Wutai Mountain? Congratulations to them for winning the lottery again. There is Zhi's army over there.
Zaiyu stared at Zhiyao blankly for a while, and what he saw was that Zhiyao was calm and peaceful.
By the way, they are engaged in a war, and it is a war to destroy the country. As the actual commander of the entire army, Zhiyao is in such a state. How should we evaluate it?
To put it bluntly, it can be said to be a disregard for human life.
To speak well and be obedient, and to have everything under control, it will appear very appropriate.
In fact, Zhiyao has done everything he should do. How to choose the enemy forces and how the various friendly forces below the chain of command behave depends on their respective performances.
The subsequent development of events hardly deviated from Zhiyao's vision.
Ji You first made a pretense of breaking out to the east, and suddenly moved north with the troops he could still command, and ran into the Wei army, which had been prepared for a long time.
Due to the constraints of the climate and environment, the two sides fought extremely hard. After about seven days of chaotic and chaotic fighting, Han Buxin appeared with his army, and at the same time, the Zhi army led by Zhi Xuwu also entered.
Until the alien coalition forces began to surrender on a large scale, and then the disappearance of Ji You occurred.
No one can tell clearly whether Ji You escaped successfully or died quietly in a place where no one could find him. Anyway, he was alive and dead but his body was not seen.
The Zhi family, who has the most stable mentality, will certainly not feel pity that the greatest contribution can disappear out of thin air. The Wei family, Han family, Hu family and other families will definitely be extremely upset.
However, in general, as soon as Ji You disappeared, the alien coalition lost its leader, their sense of resistance was completely collapsed, and the war could be considered to have entered the final stage.
Even if the final victory or defeat has been decided, many things are still not easy to proceed.
"There are so many enemy soldiers wounded and sick? If they are not properly arranged, there will be little harvest." Wei Chi looked very haggard.
Fighting against foreigners is just like that. There are not many valuable seizures, and there is no long-term "contribution" to be obtained in the future. Almost all of them are one-time sales. If you don't occupy the land, you are bound to lose money.wΑΡ.āйΗυ五.α
Capturing foreigners as slaves? The language barrier is a trivial matter. People from the same Zhuxia may not be able to communicate with each other anyway. How about the foreigners being unruly and unruly? They faced the powerful Zhuxia countries and behaved like lambs.
The trouble lies in the fact that they are not good at farming, and there are not many families who want to develop animal husbandry. The purpose of catching aliens is to increase the labor value of various projects.
It has been nearly nine months since I went abroad. Due to the environment and climate factors, Jin people, regardless of their status, except for those with the Zhi family, all of them seem to be in poor condition.
Fortunately, the Northern Expedition has produced results, and the Zhongshan Kingdom will be destroyed within a year. Whoever wants to continue activities in Beidi will do it themselves. Many families never want to come here again.
The only trouble they have now is that they can't find Ji You, so they can't bring a successful conclusion to this Northern Expedition for the time being.
If Jiyou is not found for a day, no matter whether he is dead or alive, there will be too many troubles to follow, and there is no telling who will cause a disaster from the sky one day.
Zhishen said: "If other families dislike it, my family can buy it."
Lao Zhijia is always short of people, and it doesn't matter where the people come from, they can always find suitable positions to fill them later.
The few people who had the right to speak were all stunned, pretending not to hear what Zhishen just said.
If they could allow it, they would definitely not want the Zhi family to increase their population, especially if it were obtained from them.
After all, the Zhi family not only has the largest fiefdom, but also has the largest population. In addition, the Zhi family has accumulated financial resources for a long time. If the population continues to expand, the Zhi family will make everyone very scared if they don't cause trouble!
Han Buxin was the first to change the topic and said, "Bolu is at my place."
So after a few months, Zhao Bolu returned from Dai Kingdom. It was not worth any surprise.
The Zhao family and the Han family have been friends for generations. After Zhao Bolu came back, he first went to find Han Buxin. It was also nothing to be surprised about.
Everyone is waiting for Han Buxin to continue speaking.
Maybe this will be the first time that an external party interferes with the power inheritance of a big family in an open and honest manner?
