- One hundred thousand horses were a temptation for the Kang Dynasty.
Hundreds of thousands of horses, plus millions of cattle, horses and sheep, as well as hundreds of thousands of outstanding herdsmen, were of even greater significance to the Dakang Dynasty.
As long as there are these livestock, plus herdsmen who are good at raising them, within five years at most, the number of Dakang¡¯s war horses and livestock will reach a big level, and the national strength will develop by leaps and bounds.
Moreover, this is not just a matter of improving combat effectiveness.
There are also a few small tribes that accommodate so much, and it will also greatly improve the overall image of Dakang.
Think about it.
The tribes under the Uighurs, because they could not bear the tyranny of the Uighurs, desperately defected to Dakang. This is an excellent example for all the surrounding small tribes!
This is true for both Xiqiang and Shiwei.
Their strength is actually composed of their own troops plus vassal tribes.
Vassal tribes are large and small, and they basically rely on force and power to conquer. The relationship between them is definitely not like a family, and there are even many conflicts.
If the alliance of small tribes defected to Dakang, it would trigger a large avalanche effect, causing more small tribes to defect to Dakang, which would greatly weaken the strength of these three powerful enemies.
The enemy's strength has been reduced and my strength has increased. Isn't this a good thing?
Therefore, not only the court ministers were moved, but the emperor was also a little excited.
Originally, Dakang¡¯s situation was getting better now. Soap, sweet potatoes, wooden handle grenades, and other things continued to develop and grow, which meant that Dakang¡¯s strength continued to grow and develop.
To persist, victory must be Dakang, all enemies have to lie down!
As a result, an unprecedented super war suddenly occurred.
Six forces attacked Dakang together, and the war spread to nine provinces. If Nanzhao hadn't been too weak and had ulterior motives, Dakang's fate would have been twice as miserable.
But despite this, Dakang has been riddled with holes and only has two breaths left.
But the above reasons are also an important reason why a group of military and civilian ministers in Dakang are willing to fight to the death.
Damn it!
Labor and management are about to have a good time, but you still dare to make trouble. Isn¡¯t this like killing my parents and killing my wife and children?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Relying on everyone¡¯s gritted teeth and persistence, Dakang survived this test, but the losses were also extremely heavy.
More than 20 cities were crippled, and the most important city of Jinzhou was burned to the ground. The army lost a total of six to seven million people, and more than three million people were slaughtered. Countless people were made homeless, and countless people were killed. Not even eating.
Military disasters are really hundreds of times more cruel than natural disasters.
¡°But the imperial court is in charge of the whole world. No matter how hard, tired or painful it is, we have to grit our teeth to clean up the mess and continue to live our lives.
Life is like this, and a country is like this.
Economic matters are relatively easy to handle.
Dakang has the most powerful business resources and can recover to 70% to 80% within three to five years at most.
But the problem was military, which worried the emperor quite a bit.
The cultivation of a qualified soldier does not happen overnight.
It takes ten days and a half to make iron, and it takes at least two or three years for a frontier soldier to be qualified.
Not to mention the nine guards of the Forbidden Army. Except for the embroidered guards who can be a little more opportunistic, the rest are all trained and selected for at least three to five years, and they undergo continuous training every year.
It is no exaggeration to say that every Forbidden Army soldier is Dakang¡¯s treasure.
But what about now?
Gansu's border troops basically only have 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers in Yinchuan and Jiayuguan. Shaanxi's border troops have all been mobilized to participate in the war, and only more than 30,000 are left.
Coupled with the rescuing Forbidden Army, Sichuan Army, Yunnan Army, etc., the Northwest suffered more than 200,000 casualties in one breath.
There are also Fujian, Jiangnan, Shanxi, Hebei, and Liaoxi corridors
Added together, why is there not a huge amount of six to seven hundred thousand?
Especially Nobutsuna Ikeno, who landed from Quanzhou, Fujian, massacred more than 200,000 defenders and border troops in Fujian and Zhejiang, and killed millions of civilians. It was a blood debt that cannot be forgiven.
After Dakang lost six to seven hundred thousand troops, it was extremely painful.
The common people were a little better off, but the army was so crippled, especially the Forbidden Army, with only one-third left, which made Emperor Jinghe extremely distressed.When the court came, almost everyone left, except Cao Yi who stayed behind.
He looked around and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please withdraw everyone. I have something to discuss with you."
Cao Yi was almost never aggressive, and now he suddenly became so mysterious, which made Emperor Jinghe a little confused, but also a little worried.
But he waved his hand without hesitation, indicating that even Zhao Shou had to stand at the door.
When there were only two of them here, Cao Yi first bowed deeply to the emperor and then said: "Your Majesty, may I ask your Majesty to think about what we should do if something unexpected happens during this negotiation that we least want to see? "
Emperor Jinghe was stunned: "What accident?"
Cao Yi said word for word: "The alliance of small tribes pretended to surrender, or the Uighurs and Western Qiang heard the news and sent a large army to stop them and finally captured His Royal Highness Prince Yu."
"ah?"
Emperor Jinghe quickly shook his head, "Impossible! Impossible! We have made so many preparations, how is it possible?"
"What if?" Cao Yi pressed forward step by step.
"There is no such thing as a chance!" the emperor said resolutely.
"But everything in the world must have a chance of accidents happening." Cao Yi looked at the emperor firmly, "What if that happens?"
"I¡¡"
Emperor Jinghe wanted to get angry, but looking at Cao Yi's eyes, he still didn't curse.
After calming down a little, Emperor Jing He had to admit from his heart that although the possibility was very low, it was still possible.
"Then let me tell you my opinion!" Cao Yi said calmly: "Your Majesty should send embroidered guards to guard His Highness and do everything possible to protect him from escaping back, even if it means losing His Highness Prince Yi and Xiong Dabao , Zhang Qin or even all the Yulin Guards have nothing to do with it. But"
Having said this, Cao Yi looked at Emperor Jing He motionlessly, "But if something goes wrong and His Highness is at risk of being caught, and he is reluctant to commit suicide and die for his country, then he has no choice but to let the Xiuyi Guards help him. "
"Cao Yi!!"
Emperor Jinghe suddenly roared, he slapped the table and stood up, staring at Cao Yi fiercely like an angry lion.
Zhao Shou, who was far away outside the closed door, heard the roar.
If there was not an old man in his fifties but a young courtier inside, Zhao Shou would have opened the door desperately.
Because in his impression, when the former Crown Prince Gong Minghao was assassinated, the emperor yelled in such an angry tone.
Even if the former princes Ren Wang Mingyu and Shou Wang Ming'an did not tolerate it, the emperor had never been so angry.
Cao Yi was not afraid at all. He just lifted up his official robe, knelt in front of the emperor, and knocked his head on the ground: "Your Majesty, it is better for one family to cry than for tens of thousands of family members to cry! It is related to the prosperity of my country and the country. , related to the lives of 150 million Li people, a Prince Yu is not worth mentioning at all."
¡°What a bastard!!¡±
Emperor Jinghe's face turned livid and he ordered: "Get out of here! Don't say it again! If you dare to mention this to anyone again, don't blame me for ignoring our thirty-year friendship as king and subject!"
Cao Yi remained silent and kowtowed three times in succession before slowly getting up and retreating.
Opening the door, Cao Yi saw Zhao Shou's anxious and confused expression.
Zhao Shou also saw the emperor's gloomy face, which was very similar to the expression on the day when King Ren and King Shou died at the same time.
Thiswhat serious thing happened! ?
¡¡
Now you won¡¯t say that these courtiers are like idiots~~
