"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 988
"Okay, well played!"
The good news from the front line of Luyang Province arrived at the Yunxi base camp in an expedited way of eight hundred miles.
Knowing that Commander Li Lang's Qinghe army had wiped out more than 100,000 powerful troops in one fell swoop, and completely wiped out the armed forces under King Ning, the commander-in-chief Chen Zi'ang couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing.
When they were formulating their battle plan, they expected to defeat the Mighty Army and occupy Luyang Province in about three months.
However, judging from the frequent reports of good news from the front line, they can completely occupy Luyang Province in less than three months, and can complete the task in excess.
"Commander Li Jun deserves to be the hero of our Qinghe Army. He defeated more than 200,000 mighty troops in a short period of time and greatly expanded our Qinghe territory. All our forces have seen the strength of our Qinghe Army."
After receiving the good news from the front line, Li Qiye, chief of military affairs, couldn't help but be overjoyed, because the victory of the Qinghe Army was also their victory.
"We have defeated more than 200,000 mighty troops in such a short period of time and occupied Luyang Province. The forces of all parties are afraid that they will be in trouble now." Li Qiye said with a smile.
Li Qiye reminded: "It is estimated that the forces of all parties will re-evaluate our strength, and maybe they will abandon the past and deal with us together. We have to be prepared."
After hearing Li Qiye's words, Chen Ziang also suppressed the smile on his face. He nodded, thinking that what Li Qiye said made sense.
Previously, their Qinghe army was only tossing around in the southern army area. Although they were also fighting with the rebels and the imperial court, they did not threaten their core interests.
But now they have moved northward in a big way, and the strength they have shown has exceeded the estimates of all parties.
In the past, the forces of all parties were fighting each other endlessly, and they wished that the Qinghe Army would come up to disrupt the situation and suppress their opponents.
And now that they have seen the powerful strength of the Qinghe Army, it is estimated that they will conquest each other on the surface, but they will also increase their vigilance against the Qinghe Army secretly, and even unite to deal with them.
"What good way do you have to deal with this possible situation?" Chen Ziang asked Li Qiye for his opinion.
Li Qiye thought for a while and said, "If you want to alleviate this situation, the only way is to attack from a distance."
"The rebel army and the imperial court closest to us must have raised their guard against us, and the imperial court has sent a large army to Luyang Province to drive us away."
"If my predictions are correct, the rebel army will probably send troops into Luyang Province after seeing our great strength, and secretly cooperate with the imperial army to put pressure on us and force us to withdraw from Luyang Province."
"Because there is no room for others to snore on the side of the couch. As long as we occupy Luyang Province, we can advance and retreat, and the court and the rebels will have trouble sleeping and eating."
"So our battle with them is unavoidable, so in the future, we are bound to fight fiercely with the imperial court and the rebel army in Luyang Province."
"Now we have more than 200,000 troops in Luyang Province. With the strength of our army, it is more than enough to defend Luyang Province. However, if we fall into a long-term confrontation, we will definitely be dragged into a war of attrition."
Li Qiye paused and continued: "Therefore, when we are fighting fiercely with the imperial court and the rebel army on the front line of Luyang Province, we also need to further send envoys to forces that are not bordering us. It is best to reach an offensive and defensive agreement. "
"Especially the wolf riders who have occupied Daling Province, Wuyuan Province and other places. We have no conflict of interest with them for the time being, so it is entirely possible to reach a cooperation agreement with them."
"As long as they can put pressure on the court or the rebels behind their backs, then the court and the rebels will have no way to deal with us with all their strength."
"And they have the war horses, furs and other materials that we urgently need, and we have the salt, iron and food they urgently need. We can also open up secret transportation channels for trade and further consolidate cooperation."
"Of course, in addition to sending envoys to the grasslands, we can also send envoys to the Holy Empire, the Hanhai Dynasty and the Freedom Alliance." Li Qiye glanced at Chen Ziang and said.
"They are separated from us by eight poles. Would it be too far to send them as an envoy?" Chen Ziang frowned.
However, Li Qiye shook his head: "These countries are like wolves, and they regard our Far East as a piece of fat. Our Far East is now falling apart, and their secret tricks are indispensable."
"According to the information of the Intelligence Research Institute, the??In my dynasty, there are at least three or four hundred forces that are secretly supported by these countries. "
"We are so powerful now, if we pretend to rely on them, they will probably wake up laughing when they sleep, and with our current power, they will definitely support us vigorously."
Chen Ziang nodded and agreed with Li Qiye's analysis. After all, their Qinghe Army has grown into a powerful force, and it is bound to become a target for foreign countries.
After all, if the Qinghe Army, a powerful force, can be brought under their command, then when the Qinghe Army completely occupies the entire territory of the Far Eastern Dynasty, they will be able to take advantage of the trend to annex the Far Eastern Dynasty and expand their country's territory.
If they don't want to be too ugly, they can support the Qinghe Army as puppets, and they can also secretly grab a lot of benefits. For foreign countries, there will be hundreds of benefits and no harm.
Therefore, Chen Zi'ang felt that this plan was feasible. If they could get support from foreign countries, then some of their scarce supplies would not be a problem.
Moreover, these foreign countries also have many secret support forces in the Far East Dynasty. As long as they nod, they can become temporary allies of the Qinghe Army.
"For this matter, you should go to Chief Minister Qin for Political Affairs, and you must send smart and capable people to these countries." Chen Ziang ordered.
"However, I still want to remind one thing, we don't really want to rely on them, make good friends with them, or even reach a certain trade agreement to win their support, that is all possible to cooperate, but it is related to our Far East territorial issue, we cannot sign any agreement."
Chen Ziang agrees with Li Qiye's idea of ??far-distance and close-attack, but he also has his own bottom line, that is, he cannot exchange the territorial sovereignty of the Far East.
After all, this kind of thing is too sensitive. Once someone with a heart catches him, even if Chen Ziang's reputation is ruined, he will not win the support of the people.
And now the reason why he wants to make friends with those countries outside the country is also to minimize the resistance on the road to hegemony.
After all, only when you grow up can you challenge them and be qualified to maintain the peace and stability of this country.
If he is showing too much sharpness now, even hating these foreign countries, these people will definitely feel threatened, and will spare no effort to eradicate him and kill him in the cradle.
Now the power of the Qinghe Army is indeed very large in the territory of the Far East Dynasty, but compared with some countries outside the country, it is still far behind.
Just a million wolves in the grassland is enough for him to drink a pot, so it is also possible to compromise appropriately if he has not fully grown up.
Just like a person, a man can bend and stretch, Han Xin can bear the humiliation of his crotch, and Chen Ziang is not enough to challenge many big countries. It is better to lower his body appropriately, which is also a good way. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
