I’m The King Chapter 556: : Backhand
The information provided by Zhou Yuan cannot be underestimated. Although the Donghu Cavalry is unparalleled in the world, they have a fatal weakness. Although they are rich in mineral resources, they lack the technology to smelt steel. The main combat weapons are scimitars, bows and arrows. Mainly, compared to the various weapons with different functions in the countries of the Central Plains, it is simply nothing to mention. It has always blocked Donghu, and once Qi State and Donghu join hands, through Qi State, Donghu people will be able to obtain the technologies they dream of, and thus achieve a qualitative leap in the military industry. Reminiscent of Donghu buying a large amount of farm tools, Gao Yuan seemed to see a brand new Donghu slowly rising in front of him.
The craftsmen of the Qi State can improve the technical level of the Donghu people, and the soldiers of the Qi State appearing in the Donghu, it is even more worthwhile to be wary of. Donghu people use cavalry to rule the world, and infantry has always been dispensable. In Donghu's army system, infantry are more responsible for logistics tasks, and are rarely sent to fight on the frontal battlefield. Like the countries of the Central Plains, because cavalry It is not easy to form, and more is to develop the mode of cooperating with infantry and cavalry. Qi** people appear in Donghu, and there will be nothing else. It must be to assist Donghu people in training their infantry. If a strong combat power is formed, Donghu's military strength will inevitably reach a new level.
"Qi State?" Gao Yuan snorted, already extremely angry in his heart, Qi State's meddling in Donghu, it was like smashing his own head with a big stick.
"In Ye Tiannan's era, relying on the support of Qi State, he brought Ji Ling back to Yan State to ascend the throne of Yan King. Qi State Tian Danman thought that he could get great benefits from Yan State. Not only did the previous promises of the state fall apart, but they almost went to war with the state of Qi. Qi state wanted to marry the princess to be the queen of Yan, but it was also ruined. How could the state of Qi not be angry? Wouldn't they take the opportunity to take advantage of the fire and loot, and help Donghu become stronger, so that they can contain the vital forces of Yan State, and then they can send troops to the north to bite Yan State hard?" Zhou Yuan said slowly: "Maybe Qi State is now The troops have been dispatched, and if Zhou Yutanfeng fails to deal with them, he will lose troops and generals, as well as land and cities."
Qi State may take advantage of Yan State's current weakness to launch a war. Seizing part of the land of Yan State, but this is not within the scope of Gao Yuan's consideration. It is something that the court of Yan State should consider. What he needs to face is the real threat of Donghu.
"They are traveling by water!" Gao Yuan suddenly said.
"Of course it's a waterway." Zhou Yuan said: "From the land to Donghu, you have to pass through our country of Yan. How can it be possible? From Qi to Liaodong by water, if the wind is favorable, the journey will take less than ten days. .”
"The Qi people's aid to Donghu will not be terminated in a short time, and the Donghu people have received aid from Qi. Perhaps they have paid a high price. If Yan Guo sends troops to intercept them at sea, they can be cut off. The connection between them." Gao Yuan looked at Zhou Yuan and said.
"It's easy to say. But it's hard to do!" Zhou Yuan shook his head and said: "Our Dayan has always regarded the Donghu as the biggest enemy, and the Donghu people are also the main opponent in the military. There is no navy at all, and Qi State, but it has a powerful naval force, among the countries, only Chu State can compare with it."
Gao Yuan bared his teeth and smiled. In this day and age, the so-called sailors, that is, ships with soldiers on board, fighting with each other, are still limited to the most primitive battles, two ships leaning against each other, and then soldiers jump on the other ship to fight until one side is cut down, which is a pity This lump of my own doesn't have an outlet to the sea at all, otherwise I could create a real navy. Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but move.
Some things may be started earlier.
"The Taiwei's hometown is in Fenzhou. After returning to China this time, will he continue to live in Jicheng, or is he planning to go back to his hometown?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile.
Zhou Yuan smiled self-consciously, "If it is possible, I would naturally want to go back to Fenzhou. Is it possible to stay in Jicheng and make people laugh at me? But I have to go back alive, right? You just didn't Say, does anyone not want me to go back?"
"Of course, if you go back alive, it will be extremely difficult for some people, but within the territory of Liaoxi, I can guarantee the safety of the Taiwei. Of course, there is nothing I can do outside Liaoxi." Gao Yuan said.
"Out of Liaoxi, they won't attack." Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment, "Perhaps, I can act smarter."
"Taiwei is really a smart man, if you express your attitude earlier, you may be able to spend the rest of your life in peace." Gao Yuan clasped his palms together and laughed. "If the Taiwei can really return to Fenzhou to retire safely, we may still deal with each other sometime in the future."
"Gao Yuan, you take it for granted. Even if I return to Fenzhou, I will not support you, let alone help you." Zhou Yuan shook his head.
"What I said has nothing to do with politics, maybe it's just some business matters." Gao Yuan laughed.
"Business?" Zhou Yuan was a little puzzled, looked at Gao Yuan for a while, then suddenly remembered the geographical location of Fenzhou, stood up abruptly, "Qi State Navy?"
Gao Yuan nodded with a smile, Zhou Yuan is indeed an old fox, he just started his head, and he immediately understood the meaning. Fenzhou is near the sea, and people living on the seaside naturally rely on the sea for their livelihood, and boats are indispensable.
"Let's talk about it at that time. I don't think the Taiwei will reject this matter. After all, it is also a very beneficial thing for Dayan. Qi Guo wants to bite the people of Yan. Maybe I can help Yan Guo will bite them back." Gao Yuan said.
"What good does this do for you?" Zhou Yuan stared at Gao Yuan and asked.
"Taiwei, are you confused? Qi Guo helps Donghu, and naturally he is my enemy. Attacking Qi's navy can weaken Donghu and get more help from Qi. This is for Yan and me. It’s a matter of mutual benefit, so you don’t need to think too much about it.” Gao Yuan smiled and stood up, “You might as well think about it, don’t rush to answer, let’s talk about it after you return to Fenzhou.”
Zhou Yuan nodded silently, stood up, cupped his hands and said, "So I'm leaving."
"Taiwei, please rest early. Regarding your safety in western Liaoning, Cao Tianci will report our overall plan to you tomorrow. I hope you can support us." Gao Yuan smiled and waved his hands to see off the guests.
Not long after Zhou Yuan left, Meng Chong quietly appeared in front of Gao Yuan.
"How?"
"Captain, the general sent people to contact those soldiers. As the governor expected, these people were unwilling to go back in shame. They wanted to stay and wanted the governor to give them a chance."
"Approximately how many people?"
"I got in touch with several lieutenants and officers. According to them, there are no fewer than five hundred people." Meng Chong said.
"So many people?" Gao Yuan was a little surprised, "There are too many people, it's a bit difficult to handle."
"What can't be done, Commander!" Meng Chong laughed and said, "Everyone reports a sudden illness and died, even if they know there is a ghost, so what? How dare they challenge us? Don't be afraid to annoy us, five Detain a thousand people together? What's more, they have to think about the future? Five hundred people, one-tenth of them, they won't challenge us for this one-tenth of people."
Gao Yuan smiled and nodded: "You're right, but I was a little too careful, and you brought all the leaders?"
"Here we are, we are all waiting outside the house!"
"Call them in!" Gao Yuan said, "As long as they want to kill the enemy, I will not hesitate to give them this opportunity."
Meng Chong backed out, and after a while, he came in with three officers of the Yan Army in the school lieutenant's uniform. As soon as the three of them entered the room, without saying a word, Dang even knelt down and said loudly: "General, please give the villain a chance to kill the enemy."
Gao Yuan glanced at them, and among them was the rather burly man he saw during the day. Look at his body, he will take good care of him for a few months, and he will never lose to the guy with the tiger's head.
"Think about it clearly, it's not impossible to stay, but in a short time, you won't be able to go home, and your family will even get the news that you are dead. Maybe." Gao Yuan said lightly.
"General, the villain, think about it clearly. Instead of going back in such a shameful way and making people laugh at you, it's better to die. If you die outside, the family members can still hold their heads up. If you go back like this, the family members will be afraid." I can’t even raise my head. The villain is willing to stay in the west of Liaoning and fight the Donghu people. If the Donghu people are not destroyed, the villain will not return home!”
"The villain is too!"
"The villain is too!"
The other two big men also raised their heads and said loudly.
Gao Yuan laughed, walked down, and helped the three of them with his own hands, "Okay, since you are so determined, I will fulfill you and let you stay and kill the enemy. Come on, get up, and tell me your names first .”
"Villain Zhu Tong."
"Little man Yang Fugui!"
"The villain Liu Yefei!"
Meng Chong said on the side: "Captain~IndoMTL.com~These three people were originally under the command of General Kumamoto. During the Battle of the East, they belonged to the vanguard army. , were originally lieutenant colonel officers of the vanguard army, but none of them belonged to one out of ten troops, like this time, a large part of those who are willing to stay are from this army."
"General Kumamoto is unwilling to repatriate, but is willing to stay in Donghu and share the joys and sorrows with the remaining soldiers. He is a good man and a good officer. The officers brought out by such a person are really different." Gao Yuan nodded in praise. Kumamoto said, "I heard that you have contacted more than 500 people?"
"Yes." Zhu Tong nodded and said: "In addition to our three old subordinates, there are also some people in other brother troops who are willing to stay, and there are more than five hundred people in total."
"Meng Chong, make arrangements to keep the five hundred people here. Zhu Dian, I will not break up the five hundred people, and you will be in charge. Yang Fugui and Liu Yefei will assist you. I will not hide from you that the war between our Eastern Army and Donghu is imminent. If you want revenge, it depends on your own performance. As long as you are willing to fight, there will be more battles." Gao Yuan raised his voice: "Maybe, in the future you There is still a day to return home."
"Thank you, General Gao!" The three were overjoyed, they never expected such a result, which was much better than what they had expected. (To be continued..)
