My wife is sick

Chapter 517 Crisis
Now it is hard to scare Xi Yi, and even ask for peace. It has been less than half a year since the two countries negotiated a peace, so why are they going to war again?
Wei Fu's voice changed a little: "Husband, is there any movement on Xiyi's side?"

At this moment, Wei Fu thought a lot in his mind.

Could it be that Xiyi's initiative to seek peace was just a cover to make Jing Chao paralyzed?

And Jiang Heng saw Xiyi's wolf ambition from some clues, so he came to such a conclusion?
Wei Fu could only think so.

But Jiang Heng shook his head.

"Xiyi really has no power to fight anymore. At least in the next ten years, Xiyi can only rest and recuperate, and it is impossible to fight against Jing Chao again." Jiang Heng said, "It's just that although Xiyi has no changes, it will not It means Jing Chao is stable, Jing Chao... is not the only enemy of Xiyi in the first place."

Wei Fu was stunned.

Just like what Jiang Heng said, Jing Dynasty is indeed not the only enemy of Xiyi.

The territory of the Jing Dynasty is extremely wide, and it can be said that it occupies all the great rivers and mountains. Besides the Jing Dynasty, there are also some small countries that are regarded as barbarians by the people of the Jing Dynasty, such as Xiyi and Beiman.

If you want to compare the size of the country, these small countries are naturally not as good as the Jing Dynasty, but because the living environment of these barbarians is much worse than that of the Jing Dynasty, and the resources are extremely scarce, the folk customs of these small countries are also better than those of the Jing Dynasty. They are much tougher. For example, Xiyi can be said to be all soldiers. The situation is similar in other small barbarian countries.

It is precisely because of the harsh living environment of these barbarians that they are more eager to obtain sufficient living resources by plundering, which is why there will always be wars on the border of the Jing Dynasty.

Although Xiyi was not the only barbarian, because in the past 20 years, only Xiyi had taken the initiative to initiate war against Jing Dynasty, so most people in Jing Dynasty subconsciously ignored the other small barbarian countries.

Because of this, last year when Xiyi took the initiative to seek peace, the Jing Dynasty rejoiced throughout the country, thinking that after conquering Xiyi, Jing Dynasty would usher in long-term peace and stability.

"Jing Dynasty has a vast territory, vast land and abundant resources. For these barbarians, it is a piece of fat in their mouths. How could they not covet it?" Jiang Heng said, "In the past 20 years, the war between Xiyi and Jing Dynasty has not stopped. , and the reason why the other barbarians did not send troops is because they were not sure, and secondly, they just hoped that Jing Chao and Xiyi would suffer from both defeats, and then they would jump out to take advantage of it."

Although the Jing Dynasty and Xiyi have negotiated peace, they have fought for 20 years, which has greatly depleted the national power of the two countries. At this time, if they take advantage of the vacancy, they can undoubtedly achieve half the result times.

I have to say that these barbarians are quite tolerant.

And the northern barbarians that Jiang Heng mentioned were the best among the barbarians except the Xiyi.

"A few days ago, I received news from below that there seems to be a change in Beiman's side. I'm afraid there will be some action in the near future. If Jing Chao can't take precautions in time..."

Jiang Heng only spoke half of what he said.

If Jing Chao can't take precautions in time, what kind of consequences will be there, but he didn't finish talking.

However, even after hearing only half of this, Wei Fu felt a burst of fear.

No matter who it is, they don't want their country to be in war for many years, especially now that the Jing Dynasty has just returned to peace. If Beiman really pointed the blade at Jing Chao, and Jing Dynasty was completely defenseless, then The consequences, as one can imagine, are very serious.

"These crises..." Wei Fu looked at Jiang Heng, "Could it be that the high priest and so many people in the court couldn't see it?"

Although such a question was asked, the answer in Wei Fu's heart could not be more obvious.

Ever since Xiyi took the initiative to ask for peace, Wei Fu could feel that the atmosphere in the capital was much more relaxed. Many people were even more proud when they mentioned the peace talks. This is the manifestation of Jingchao's national strength and prosperity.

besides……

Wei Fu had never heard anyone mention the crisis that Jiang Heng mentioned.

This may be because Wei Fu spends most of her time in the Duke's Mansion, and does not have many opportunities to meet people outside, but it is more likely that most people do not realize that there is such a thing at all. crisis.

Perhaps, in the eyes of everyone, since Xiyi took the initiative to seek peace, there would be no crisis for the Jing Dynasty.

If even Emperor Jingwen had such thoughts, then it would not be difficult to guess what the outcome would be when the Beiman suddenly launched a war.

Jiang Heng has guarded the border for 20 years, and has never let the Xiyi people step into the territory of the Jing Dynasty. Is it possible that this precedent will be broken now?
Thinking of this in her heart, Wei Fu felt a little difficult to breathe for a while.

Jiang Heng held Wei Fu's hand, and his voice sounded a bit dull: "My lord...he may not be able to see these crises, but in the eyes of my lord, I'm afraid that the threat I bring to him is even greater than that of the northern barbarians. Bigger."

Under such circumstances, how can Emperor Jingwen be expected to detect the crisis in time and take precautions in advance?

Wei Fu was also speechless for a moment.

Emperor Jing Wen may not be unable to see the crisis, but he is unwilling to allow Jiang Heng to make further contributions, that is for sure.

Perhaps, although Emperor Jing Wen saw a possible crisis, he was too optimistic and thought that there would be no big troubles, so he had the spare time to plan and take over the military power in Jiang Heng's hands.

Emperor Jingwen has always boasted of being a Mingjun, but he only focused on how to suppress his subjects, and even ignored possible foreign troubles for a while. I have to say, this is a bit ironic.

In the current situation, Jiang Heng has received news that there has been a change in Beiman.

But Emperor Jingwen hadn't noticed this yet.

So, what will Jiang Heng do?

Wei Fu asked, "Husband, what do you want to do?"

In fact, Jiang Heng has been planning to escape from the capital, and the Beiman matter is a very good opportunity, but the premise is that he can put aside his loyalty for the past 20 years.

But how easy is this?

In the past 20 years, Jiang Heng has been guarding the gate of the country, repelling foreign enemies time and time again, and has never allowed an enemy to step into Jingchao half a step. Now, how can he sit idly by and watch the northern barbarians attack? What about coming?

As for Wei Changzheng, who was sent to the border by Emperor Jingwen...

In Jiang Heng's eyes, this is just talking on paper, but he may not be able to defend against the menacing northern barbarians.

It was also because of this that Wei Fu was curious about what Jiang Heng would do.

Of course, no matter what decision Jiang Heng made, Wei Fu would support him unconditionally.
