Chapter 115: News from the old Taoist priest and Wang Lin’s plan!



As long as there are no major changes, according to Wang Lin's inference, Da Wei will reach a higher level in the near future.

It should be noted that the current Wei Dynasty is already powerful enough, which is a great event in all dynasties.

If the national strength rises to another level, even Meng Jue can't imagine it.

So during these days, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

The reason why he unified the Baiyue was not to prevent the Baiyue from falling into the chaos of fighting among the various tribes, so that the Baiyue people could live a better life. Meng Jue also knew that such a thing was difficult, at least not something that could be accomplished in one generation.

After all, the Baiyue people have been living in this way for thousands of years, and it is difficult to make changes without external forces.

But if that were the case, I would facilitate more exchanges between Baiyue and Wei.

Even...let Baiyue be incorporated into Wei?

The future of Baiyue will definitely be better than ever before.

Of course, he just had this idea and had no intention of actually putting it into action.

After all, Meng Jue was not sure where the Baiyue people would be after being incorporated into the Wei Dynasty. Would they become inferior people or be driven around at will? If that was the case, it would be better for them to stay in Baiyue and not have any contact with the Central Plains dynasty.

Even though we know that the Emperor of Wei is a man of great talent and strategy, that is all. Will he really treat the Baiyue people the same way he treats the people of Wei?

Therefore, his current idea is to continue to compete with the Wei Dynasty and rely on the advantages of Baiyue itself to remain invincible.

This is the best and clearest choice now.

"Barbarian Lord."

Soon, a group of people walked into the coach's tent.

These are all high-level officials from the Baiyue side, and of course, Wang Lin is among them.

Although he was disliked by many people because of the last incident, among all the people present, Wang Lin knew the Wei Dynasty best, so Meng Jue understood that he still had to listen to this person's opinions on many matters.

After seeing the person coming, Meng Jue lowered his gaze from the feng shui map and asked, "How is it going? Has the news spread?"

"It must have spread. The Wei side probably already knows that our army is gathering."

A high-ranking official from the Baiyue region spoke up and continued, "However, the defenders at the Zhennan Pass of the Great Wei Dynasty haven't made any movement, as if they don't know anything."

Hearing this, Meng Jue narrowed his eyes slightly, then turned to look at Wang Lin and said, "Are you sure that the Great Wei can know our movements? After all, this time, we went to great lengths to deliberately bypass those spies that Lu An had planted in Baiyue."

"It's definitely correct." Wang Lin nodded and said confidently, "The Great Wei has an organization called the East Factory. Their intelligence capabilities are very strong. Even if we try to hide, they will definitely be able to detect us."

"As long as the East Factory knows about this, the Emperor of Wei and a group of high-ranking officials should also know about this news."

That’s right, Meng Jue mobilized a large army and deliberately bypassed Lu An’s spies, only letting the East Factory know.

The purpose is to give Wei an illusion that they will take action soon.

Since then.

The Wei Dynasty's Zhennan Pass defenders would definitely respond and send a large army to fight. At worst, according to Lu An's character, he would lead tens of thousands of troops to station outside Zhennan Pass and be ready for battle.

In this way, they can choose to take action, of course, just a small fight, and then let the attention of the Wei Dynasty be focused in one direction.

If necessary, they could even lose several times, making the Emperor of Wei believe that they had the upper hand in the second war.

In this way, reinforcements will not be mobilized from other places, and the Marquis of Guanjun of Wei will not come out.

Meng Jue’s ultimate goal is also very simple.

In this way, they continuously consumed the logistics and patience of the Wei Dynasty. When the time came and they felt that they could not eliminate the Baiyue, they would choose to retreat.

After all, the Great Wei couldn't possibly focus all its attention on the Baiyue. At worst, he could sign some kind of alliance with the Great Wei Emperor. This way, he could preserve the emperor's dignity while also preventing the Baiyue from suffering too much loss.

It can be said that this is a very good plan.

But now, the other party didn't react at all...

This was completely beyond Meng Jue's expectations, so much so that he doubted whether the news had actually been spread.

However, according to Wang Lin, the Wei Dynasty had the East Factory, so they must have obtained the intelligence.

"Barbarian Lord, since Wei has no reaction, why don't we just take the initiative and attack them again, catching them off guard!" At this time, a high-ranking official of Baiyue could not help but speak out.

According to his idea, it would be more convenient for both sides to fight directly. It would be too troublesome to use any strategy now.

"Attack directly?" Meng Jue's expression turned cold after hearing this. "We have over 60,000 men gathered here, all brothers and sisters from various tribes. Do you really want them to die? Do you think this is just a dispute of pride? If we fight head-on, are we a match for the Wei Dynasty? Do you know how many people will die?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the man fell silent instantly, and the others also did not speak, with their heads lowered.

Yes, Wei has the strength to fight them head-on, but Baiyue does not.

One less death is one less.

If these 60,000 people were all killed, the remaining Baiyue people would either be unarmed or only the elderly, the weak, women and children would be left. If Wei attacked again, they would have no choice but to wait for death.

"So, Barbarian Lord, what should we do?"

Meng Jue didn't answer, he really had no other choice.
