…
at the same time.
Mobei.
Savage King's Court.
The royal palace.
Queen Mother Xue Chuo, at this moment, was wearing a blue and white robe with cloud patterns. She was standing on the balcony, gazing into the distance.
Next to her was a little kid who was only three or four years old and looked like a porcelain doll.
Lead by a palace maid.
Behind him were several important ministers.
The scouts have just brought in a report on the domestic situation in Yue State.
Everyone was waiting for the decision of the young empress dowager.
After an unknown amount of time, Xue Chuo slowly turned around and his eyes fell on several important ministers.
"Gentlemen, in this situation, what do you think we should do?"
Upon hearing this, several important officials immediately spoke up and expressed their opinions.
Some people suggested that they should immediately break out of the encirclement and withdraw the 10,000 troops before the King of Pingliang could gather more troops.
Avoid major losses.
Some people advocated that they must help the Crown Prince of Yue, defend the imperial city to the death, and destroy the King of Pingliang.
In this way, the barbarians would have the possibility to continue their influence on the State of Yue and thus obtain more resources.
Neither of these two opinions is wrong.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult to choose.
Xue Chuo did not make a decision, but asked, "What are you doing now, Da Gan Fang Fang?"
Prime Minister Tieren said: "Replying to the Queen Mother, now the Dagans are continuing to implement their policies in depth."
"Continue to increase publicity to the tribes in southern Mo."
"At the same time, the contacts between the various ministries and the royal court will be strictly restricted."
"An attempt to completely cut off the royal court's access to resources from various tribes."
"In addition, Da Gan has sent a large number of officials to continuously measure the lands of the various tribes in the south of the desert."
"Next, we should prepare to allocate pastures to each tribe according to their policy."
"The policy of Dagan has been supported by most small tribes, except for a few large tribes that oppose it."
"Queen Mother, I have to say that compared to the Yue Kingdom, the Dagan Kingdom is a bigger problem."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Everyone can see that once Da Gan's plan is completed, it will be a huge blow to the royal court.
Xue Chuo pondered for a long time again.
Then, he said something that shocked everyone.
"Now, if an army of 10,000 were to fall into the country of Yue, I, a barbarian, would not be able to bear it."
"If we withdraw now, I'm afraid we will suffer losses."
"Besides, Da Gan will never sit idly by."
"Therefore, no matter what choice I make, I, Savage, will no longer be able to recover my strength in a short period of time."
"If I can't improve this situation, I, Huang Man, can only wait to die."
"So, I have an idea."
"That is, the royal court left Mobei and headed for Hexi."
Upon hearing Xue Chuo's words, everyone present changed color.
"Queen Mother, no!"
"Yes, Queen Mother, absolutely not!"
"Although our barbarians are weak, we will never migrate to Hexi."
You know, this grassland is where they have lived for generations.
If they crossed the Tianshan Mountains and headed to Hexi, they would completely lose the place for survival left to them by their ancestors.
This is something they cannot accept.
Xue Chuo knew that this would be the result once he said this.
So, not surprising.
She sighed deeply and said faintly: "In this case, let's wait for a while."
"Tieren, go contact Shu and see if you can trade with us."
"Also, contact those large tribes."
"Once Shu agrees to trade, my barbarians may still be able to turn things around."
"Shu Kingdom had previously formed an alliance with Dagan to fight against Southern Chu and Wu Kingdom."
"But, at the same time, they are also afraid of Da Gan. I think they would definitely like to see a barbarian who can restrain Da Gan."
"If this plan succeeds, nothing more will be said. If it fails, then prepare to move to the land west of the river."
…
Soon, the Empress of Shu met the barbarian envoys.
After learning the purpose of the envoy's visit, the Queen of Shu ordered the envoy to withdraw and summoned all the ministers into the palace.
All the ministers actually agreed to start trade with the barbarians.
In this way, the barbaric power can be maintained to contain the rise of the great Gan.
In the end, the Queen of Shu also agreed to this matter.
A group of ministers left and prepared to negotiate in detail with the barbarian envoys, while the Empress of Shu returned to the inner palace.
On the bed, there lay a little guy with big eyes, delicate skin, and a delicate face.
The Queen of Shu walked forward, gently held the child in her arms, and then rocked him.
"My son, my son, if your father knew that your mother was supporting their enemies..."
"Tell me, will your father be angry?"
"When the time comes, if your father gets angry, you have to persuade mother to do so, understand?"
…
At this moment, in Mubei City, Zhao Hao continued to push forward the various matters of the Pacification Plan, while also helping Xiao Chuyun to reorganize the military.
At this time, news came back from the imperial capital of Yue State.
Wu Song walked in quickly and said, "Sir, the King of Pingliang has gathered more than 60,000 troops and is heading to the imperial capital of Yue."
"With the loss of more than 80,000 troops under his command, the number of troops has reached nearly 150,000."
"However, now, only 30,000 have arrived in the imperial capital."
"There are still 30,000 people on the way who have not gathered yet."
"If all these 60,000 troops were present, the Prince of Pingliang would be able to capture the imperial capital."
"I'm afraid the 10,000-strong army of the Wilderness will also be left behind."
