Chapter 773 Rumors About South Vietnam
Nan Xi frowned. She remembered that when she was in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Su Chang wanted to marry the legitimate daughter of the Nan family on behalf of the King of South Vietnam. At that time, Nan Xi had already married Rong Yu and became the regent princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
So the Emperor of South Vietnam has always wanted to marry her and has never given up?
Nan Xi frowned slightly. Zhan Ruo traveled thousands of miles to send such a secret letter. He must have predicted in advance that South Vietnam would take action?
"Your Majesty the Queen, Prince Regent." Chu Hongyi left and returned, "Master Xie and Prince Yao are here."
Rong Yu said coldly: "Let them come in."
The three of them quickly entered the palace to salute.
Xie Jin said: "I wonder why the Lord summoned me?"
Nan Xi raised her hand and handed the letter in her hand to Chu Hongyi. Chu Hongyi glanced at it briefly, then turned around and handed it to Xie Jin and the others.
The atmosphere in the Dazheng Palace was a bit solemn. Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao frowned slightly after reading the contents of the letter, and their expressions were a bit unsightly.
"The Emperor of South Vietnam is about to die, isn't he?" Xie Jin sneered, "I don't have much ability, but I have a big appetite. How dare you even entertain the idea of begging to marry Her Majesty the Queen? If you don't get rid of such a person, why don't you keep him for the New Year? "
Xuanyuan Yao nodded slowly: "We should indeed give them an unforgettable lesson and let them experience the power of the Dongling Iron Cavalry."
The Obsidian Army that has been raised for two years should be put to use now.
"About this rumor that has arisen in South Vietnam, someone should be secretly manipulating it." Chu Nanyi frowned slightly, "Actually, before Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne, South Vietnam had such a statement. Later, South Vietnam and Northern Xinjiang sent envoys to save it. It was also an attempt to find out what was true. However, after the Lord used a small alienation plan, Su Chang aroused the murderous intent of the emperor after returning to South Vietnam. Prime Minister Su of South Vietnam had deep roots and strong influence. The emperor needed to get rid of Su Chang slowly. Plan slowly to avoid civil strife in the government. I have no time to worry about it in the past two years. "
However, after such a long time, the emperor's power should have been stable, and the negative impact caused by killing Prime Minister Su should have settled down, so he had such an overestimating act of seeking death again.
Mo Ling'an, who was in charge of the intelligence, had vaguely mentioned such rumors in South Vietnam before. Firstly, Her Majesty the Queen had just arrived in Dongling and needed to secure her throne. Secondly, Rong Yu had no ambition to conquer the world. Thirdly, it was South Vietnam and Northern Xinjiang. The arrival of the envoys was a bit frustrating. They thought that both countries could learn to behave better.
Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Nanyue was like a cockroach that could not be killed. He remained ambitious. Obviously, the Emperor of Nanjiang really took the saying "To conquer the world with Queen Dongling" seriously, that's why he dared to test their master again and again. bottom line.
In the past, the emperor of Southern Xinjiang was intimidated by Rong Yu's control of the regency power of Dazhou and Dongling, and he was able to restrain himself a little. Now it has been more than a year since the emperor of Dazhou ascended the throne, and Rong Yu has even taken root in Dongling, so Southern Xinjiang Does the emperor have no scruples?
Xuanyuan Yao frowned slightly and pondered for a long time: "Guanpingsui in the northeast of South Vietnam is adjacent to Huainan. It is an easy-to-attack and difficult-to-defend area. Therefore, my father has heavily defended Huainan since he was guarding it. South Vietnam's military strength must not be underestimated, even after so many years. No one took action, but the soldiers and horses defending Huainan never dared to slack off. If this time is to teach South Vietnam a lesson, I think we can use the Yu Kingdom to catch them off guard. "
As he said that, he glanced at Rong Yu, "I just want to practice my skills with the Black Obsidian Army. Didn't I want to watch a black cavalry drill before I go to the army? This time is just right. I will fight with real swords and guns on the battlefield. Look, I will never come back to see the Lord until I capture the seven cities in South Vietnam.”
He knelt down on one knee and said, "I beg you to go to war and make South Vietnam pay the price for their arrogance and ambition!"
"If we borrow the road from Yu Country, we can take over Yu Country as well." Xie Jin said unhurriedly, "Yu Country has a small territory, small population, and weak military strength. When the Dongling Iron Cavalry came out, they had no chance to parry. The only thing you can do is surrender.”
After a pause, "However, the Yu Kingdom has always been peaceful. After being adopted as the territory of Dongling, they can treat their people well. They can also enfeoff the Yu Kingdom clan and still allow them to be vassal kings without changing the honor of the royal family."
As soon as he said this, everyone else in the hall couldn't help but look at him.
Xuanyuan Yao frowned, thoughtfully: "There is a vast plain on the southern border of Yu Country where it meets South Vietnam. It is fertile with water and grass and is suitable for raising troops and horses."
South Vietnam had also been eyeing the grassland of Yu Country. If it could capture the border of Yu Country, large-scale military garrisoning would not be a problem. However, war has always been the most sensitive matter, and the balance between countries cannot be broken easily. Even if Yu Country is only a small and weak country, South Vietnam does not dare to raise troops to provoke a war without authorization, because once South Vietnam provokes a war, other countries will not Maybe sit on the sidelines.
The Yu Kingdom is sandwiched between South Vietnam and Tangling. Both the north and the south are powerful countries. In principle, the Yu Kingdom is not dependent on any country. However, whether it is South Vietnam or Tangling, if they really want to raise troops to conquer or use strong pressure to coerce , then Yu Guo can only pay tribute every year in order to ensure the safety of his family and country.
"If there is destined to be a war between the nine countries, then the outcome of the three small countries of Yu Country, Yan Country and Qing Country has actually been doomed. If it is not broken now, it will still be impossible to find stability in the future." Nan Xi's voice was calm, "The news about Zhan Ruo came early. We can let Mo Lingan pay attention to the situation in South Vietnam first. During this time, I can also exchange letters with Zhan Ruo first to make the Yuwang royal family mentally prepared."
Xuanyuan Yao raised his eyes and his eyes fell on Her Majesty the Queen's beautiful and delicate face. He was a little surprised and asked, "Your Majesty agrees with me to raise troops to attack South Vietnam?"
"Why don't you agree?" Nan Xi raised her eyebrows, "Only Nanyue is allowed to provoke again and again, but Dongling is not allowed to fight back in anger?"
Xuanyuan Yao said with a smile: "Not really, I just thought Your Majesty was more peace-loving."
In fact, it was because his master's fighting spirit was worn out by love, so that people had the illusion that Her Majesty was a gentle person. Fighting for hegemony seemed to belong to men by nature. With Her Majesty in power in Dongling, it seemed that this war would not be fought.
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Yao suddenly shuddered. Was it because of this illusion that Nanyue and Beijiang had repeatedly provoked each other?
But it was obvious that Her Majesty was just a little gentle and looked amiable, but it did not mean that she was the kind of person who could be bullied and swallow her anger. Besides...
Anyone who dared to bully Her Majesty would soon be taught by the master how to write the word "death".
"Thank you, Jin." Rong Yu said in a cold voice, "Go and prepare an invitation to invite King Yu to come to Dongling as a guest."
"I obey your order!"
"Chu Nanyi, send a message to Mo Ling'an immediately, asking him to focus on the movements of the Nanyue royal family."
"Yes!"
"The Black Obsidian Army's mounts, weapons and armor are all equipped and ready to go to war at any time." Rong Yu's tone became more and more stern, "Chu Hongyi will hand over the military power to Xuanyuan Yao, and the 100,000 Golden Armored Army will be temporarily under the command of Xuanyuan Yao."
Xuanyuan Yao and Chu Hongyi received the order at the same time: "I obey your order."
Nan Xi looked at Chu Hongyi quietly.
The transfer of troops and horses is actually the transfer of power. It sounds like an understatement, but for military generals, military power means the foundation of their lives. Chu Hongyi cannot fail to understand this.
But she did not question Rong Yu's arrangement at all, and even her expression did not change at all.
Nan Xi raised the corner of her lips slightly. Chu Hongyi now has the power to lead the imperial guards and has a child. It is the best arrangement for her to stay in the palace and work. If Dongling sends troops to conquer other countries, the first general to be sent out must be Xuanyuan Yao. If other countries also start to join this war in the future, then Xuanyuan Qi may be more suitable than Chu Hongyi.
After all, Chu Hongyi's military tactics and martial arts are the results of Xuanyuan Qi's teaching.
Or Rong Yu will lead the troops himself.
Chu Hongyi, who has become a mother and is the most suitable general to stay by the queen's side to protect her, will probably not be arranged to go to the battlefield.
"Go and prepare." Rong Yu said, "The equipment of the Golden Armor Guard will be provided by the national treasury. Please prepare a memorial with the amount of silver needed. After Xie Jin has reviewed it, he will present it to the king for approval."
Xuanyuan Yao accepted the order: "Yes."
"The king will equip you with the best weapons, war horses and armor." Rong Yu's eyes fell on Xuanyuan Yao's face, "I hope your record can match such standards."
Xuanyuan Yao suddenly felt a lot of pressure and accepted the order respectfully: "I will live up to the expectations of my master."
