The era of all the princes

Chapter 159 Forced Situation!
"Yuwentai retreated to Mobei?"

This news made many people here a little confused. Apart from martial arts, Tiance Academy also teaches military and macro strategy. Now the Battle of Bingzhou is the best example. It was brought up for discussion in several military classes. Most of the young generals who used to have narrow eyes could feel how suddenly Yu Wentai withdrew.

"What do you think?" Jiang Sheng asked with a smile.

Some people look at me and I look at you, and most of them don’t know what to say. After all, people like Zhang Yuanshan have only taken a few military courses. Unable to speak.

It was the originally low-key son who spoke first: "Yu Wentai's position is not correct. Although the plan is astonishing and shocking in the past, the foundation is definitely unstable. The state is adjacent to the West Sea, and the business is connected to the 74 countries on the West Sea waterway. Although the degree of commercial prosperity is relatively low. It doesn’t go to the East China Sea and Jiangnan, but it is also the best in the big states. It is not easy for a person with an unstable foundation to hold such a good seat.”

After a light cough, the son said again: "I have received the grace of the country from the lineage of King Liang. Although my father and son did not manage well and easily changed hands, the foundation is still there. More than [-]% of the military officers in Bingzhou are ours. The business firm also has a very good relationship with my King Liang's lineage. Yu Wentai will spend a lot of effort to stabilize here in a short time, and his method of seizing Han Xiao's power is too slanted. It is not easy to hold the current fruit. How can he swallow it? A good place like Bingzhou?"

Putting it this way, everyone including Liu Yan suddenly nodded, and Liu Yan and Zhang Yuanshan also immediately understood that they are short-sighted now and still need a lot of time to study. .

"Your Majesty is right." Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "Yu Wentai seems to be very powerful, but in fact his foundation is extremely unstable. It is not a temporary decision to retreat to the north. I'm afraid he didn't want to stay in Bingzhou from the beginning."

The fact is also that if they would have stayed in Bingzhou at that time, they would not have allowed the northern rebels to mess around in Bingzhou.

But there is one thing that he is very concerned about. If Yu Wentai didn't intend to stay in Bingzhou from the beginning, why did Yu Wenhu attack Mo Yang?
Although Moyang is the capital of Bingzhou, there is actually no need to take down the geographical location, because it will not interfere with their retreat route, and it will not even be able to cut off supplies.

Using ordinary logic, it seemed that he couldn't figure out why Yuwentai would do what he did, but combined with the things in the fragments of the wilderness, Jiang Sheng had some guesses.

It is very likely that Yu Wentai has some relationship with the first batch of ghosts back then, and he may even be one of them. If this is the case, there will be a reason why Yu Wenhu attacked Mo Yang.

It is very likely that he guessed Yuwenhu's identity as a pioneer, so he used Yuwenhu to test the local ghosts in Bingzhou!
The result was the fall of the mighty Yuwenhu, which made Yuwentai completely give up the idea of ​​annexing the state. Obviously, those hidden ghosts in the firm are not on the same path as Yuwentai.

Of course, this is just speculation, and the specific situation will have to be explored in the future.

But the most urgent thing is the situation in front of Bingzhou.

Jiang Sheng motioned to Wei Haodong, and Wei Haodong took out a map and said, "After Yu Wentai withdrew, he withdrew all the way to the northwest, and even gave up the Bauhinia Pass. The evacuation was very thorough. During this vacuum period, the current situation in Bingzhou has also changed. Pretty confusing."

"First of all, the imperial court forces, who were eager to take back Bingzhou, sent Chu State Duke Shen Zhuo to lead the army to occupy Moyang first, and then other anti-king forces also took the opportunity to invade. After Yu Wentai withdrew, the northwest passage was empty. Wu Guoan, who claimed to be the king He led the army to capture Zijing Pass and occupied a section of Tianshui City, and Wang Bainian of Jiulong Island was not idle, and led his army to capture Qingyang!"

"A local organization claiming to be the Guangming Sect also took advantage of the chaos and occupied an area in Huai'an to the south. It can be said that the current situation is quite complicated!"

"My lord, how does this affect us?" Zhang Yuanshan kept asking.

Now that they are far overseas, they are too busy to develop islands, and most of their business is carried out in Xuefeng Country. To be honest, Bingzhou doesn't have much relationship with them now, right?

"First of all, we need a population." Jiang Sheng pointed to the map: "Our island is very large, and it can support millions of people if it is properly developed, but the question is, where do we get so many people? It's impossible to survive, right? With our current population, there are few women, and we rely on life, when will you all see the establishment of the island country?"

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and it seemed that it was impossible to develop with peace of mind.

"Slaves in Xuefeng Kingdom are quite cheap." Zhang Yuanshan struggled for the last time.

Jiang Sheng knew what he was afraid of, so he didn't point it out, and continued: "Slaves have to be bought with money, and it is unrealistic to buy hundreds of thousands of slaves even if you have money, and people who are not of our race must have different hearts. Democracy prevails."

This remark made the generals headed by He Shen nod their heads one after another. They didn't come here to be slave owners. Who wants to live with a group of barbarians from outside the archipelago?
Zhang Yuanshan was still waiting to talk, but was interrupted by Liu Yan: "If you are afraid of Wang Bainian, just say so, you don't need to make so many excuses!"

"You..." The people behind Zhang Yuanshan immediately kicked towards Liu Yan, Liu Yan didn't even look at them, and lightly picked up the teacup, the inexplicable aura made the people behind Zhang Yuanshan unable to swear for a while.

Zhang Yuanshan frowned and looked at the other party, not knowing what to say for a while, because he was indeed afraid of Wang Bainian.

If your lord wants to enter the population, you have to go to the port in Qingyang, which will inevitably conflict with Wang Bainian. To be honest, the miraculous things shown by your lord make him very confident in the future, but now he is facing Wang Bainian.
"My lord." Zhang Yuanshan looked at Jiang Sheng: "Our power is still very weak now, with less than [-] soldiers to fight, and as far as I know, the military strength of Jiulong Island is more than [-]!"

Jiulong Island is just a name, and its scope is quite large. Each island in Jiulong Island has the size of a small island country. Anyone who has been there knows that Jiulong Island has a population of over [-] million under the management of Mr. Wang Bainian. It is a real island. The vassal-level forces!
Although Wang Bainian has not declared himself king, many people know that his strength is definitely not weaker than other anti-kings, and his foundation is solid, which is why the Bingzhou Navy dare not attack aggressively.

"Time doesn't wait." Jiang Sheng shook his head: "If I have to, I don't want to run into him so soon, but the current situation does not allow me to back down. Once Wang Bainian is allowed to stand firm in Qingyang, our future population channels will be completely cut off. We can only rely on buying slaves in Xuefeng country to build a country!"

As soon as these words came out, the meeting room fell silent.

Wang Bainian, the famous thief in Xihai, born in Bingzhou, who hasn't heard of his name?

Even an arrogant person like Wu Hui thinks that Jiang Sheng has a problem with his brain. With the size of the village on the island, how can he provoke Wang Bainian, a feudal lord?

Is this guy crazy?
