Only one day later, Zhao Ji, who was in Suizhou, received a letter sent by Yun Li.
After seeing the contents of the letter, Zhao Ji almost tore it to pieces in front of the messenger.
This is obviously the fantasy of someone who has no knowledge of military affairs!
One hundred and sixty thousand versus thirty thousand, there is indeed a great chance of winning!
But the question is, how to quietly mobilize 160,000 troops to surround Changle County?
They were paying attention to the Fuzhou army's every move, and the Fuzhou army must also be paying attention to their every move.
As long as they make any move, Yun Zheng in Changle County will receive the news first.
Do they think Yun Zheng, who conquered the entire north, is a fool?
Once their army moves, can Yun Zheng not see their intentions?
This is no longer just talk!
...
...
This is not even basic military common sense!
Or maybe he was so crazy about taking down Yun Zheng that he lost his ability to think normally!
Zhao Ji resisted the urge to curse and quickly wrote a letter, sealed it with wax and handed it to the messenger, "Deliver this letter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as quickly as possible! Remember, you must hand it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person!"
"yes!"
The messenger received the order and left quickly.
Watching the messenger leave, Zhao Ji couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.
The people in the court are too impatient!
He's crazy about wanting to take Yun Zheng's life!
Of their 160,000 troops in Juzhou and Xiongjiling, they only had 10,000 cavalry.
There are also 5,000 cavalry stationed in Fuzhou, and Yun Zheng’s personal guards are also elite cavalry.
The method of cavalry raiding and infantry following up simply does not work.
If the court gave him another 30,000 or 40,000 cavalry, he could launch a quick raid with the cavalry, break through Fuzhou's first line of defense, quickly besiege Yun Zheng in Changle County, and then move forward with the infantry, completely besiege Changle County and launch a fierce attack on it.
Unfortunately, war horses were scarce at the imperial court, and the best horse-breeding lands were all in Shuobei.
The horse farms in Liangzhou and Liaozhou are both small farms, and the total number of war horses slaughtered each year is only about one thousand.
If you want to gather tens of thousands of war horses from the horse farms in Liangzhou and Liaozhou, you will have to wait for decades!
Southern horses are generally smaller in size, and their endurance and explosive power are much inferior.
The southern horses can basically not be relied upon.
The best solution for the imperial court was to purchase a large number of war horses from Xiqu when it was first established.
Unfortunately, Xiqu may not sell war horses.
Although Xiqu was not as short of war horses as the Dagan court, it also had enough war horses.
Xiqu also needs to prepare troops to resist Yun Zheng, so how could it get so many war horses to sell to the court?
"well……"
Zhao Ji sighed heavily and let out a long breath.
In fact, if the imperial court went to war with Yun Zheng, anyone who understood military affairs would be able to tell who would win or lose.
Can't win!
There is no way to fight!
If Yun Zheng really wanted to rebel, the imperial court would have almost no chance of winning even if it assembled 500,000 troops in Juzhou.
The morale, armaments, and level of eliteness of the imperial army could not be compared with the army under Yun Zheng's command.
The best way right now is to maintain the superficial situation with Yun Zheng and achieve victory through means outside the battlefield.
Fighting head-on is the worst option!
People like Xue Che and Xiao Wanchou must have seen it clearly.
However, after Xue Che was thrown into the Tianlao, many far-sighted generals in the court no longer dared to tell the truth.
And he also didn't dare to tell the truth.
It's difficult!
Although he is in power now, he has never slept well.
His situation is more difficult than that of Xiao Wanchou and others.
Although Xiao Wanchou and the others were also in the vortex, they were on the edge of it.
But he, Zhao Ji, was at the center of the vortex.
If you are not careful, you will end up in pieces.
Just as Zhao Ji was sighing, the personal guard commander Zhao Wu came running over and said, "General, King Jingbei Yun Zheng has sent an envoy to ask for an audience!"
Yun Zheng?
Hearing what Zhao Wu said, Zhao Ji's brows suddenly frowned.
What did Yun Zheng send the envoy to do?
Does Yun Zheng want to make the court suspicious of him by this method?
If the prince knew that I met with the envoy sent by Yun Zheng, he would probably become suspicious, right?
This prince's suspicion is extremely serious!
Under normal circumstances, he should have beheaded the messenger sent by Yun Zheng as a warning to others.
However, he didn't dare to do that.
He gave Yun Zheng an excuse to make trouble, but he was the one who suffered.
After a brief thought, Zhao Ji immediately waved his hand: "No! Get him out!"
"ah?"
Zhao Wu's face changed, and he said cautiously: "General, this...is not good, right?"
"What's wrong with that?"
Zhao Ji glanced over coldly and scolded, "If the court knew that I had contact with Yun Zheng's envoy, what do you think the court would think?"
“No, no…”
Zhao Wu shook his head repeatedly: "What I mean is that this is an envoy sent by King Jingbei after all. If we just send him away like this, wouldn't it be... too rude?"
Discourteous?
What is the relationship between the imperial court and Yun Zheng? Doesn’t Zhao Wu know?
Do we need to consider whether this is impolite or not?
Zhao Wu was obviously afraid that directly driving away the envoy sent by Yun Zheng would offend Yun Zheng!
Zhao Ji pondered for a moment and waved his hand feebly, "Then tell the visitor that I have something important to attend to and cannot meet with guests!"
"yes!"
Zhao Wu took the order and ran out quickly.
Looking at Zhao Wu's back, Zhao Ji couldn't help but look bitter.
Even the commander of his own personal guards is so afraid of Yun Zheng, and the imperial court still wants him to lead the army to besiege Yun Zheng in Changle County?
If this is really done, with 160,000 troops heading over, I'm afraid half of them will surrender to Yun Zheng, right?
That’s it, what’s the point of fighting!
…
Fuzhou, Changle County.
Now, spring ploughing has started in Fuzhou one after another.
The seeds brought back from overseas can also be sown in the official fields of Changle County.
Plant the seeds first, and it would be best to wait until the crops that he doesn't even know about sprout and grow, and then see what they are.
Ye Zi and Shen Luoyan were checking the accounts at the government office, while Yun Zheng and Miaoyin brought their two children to Guantian.
Although they did not need to plant the seeds themselves, these were precious seeds that the soldiers exchanged their lives for.
I have to see these seeds being planted with my own eyes to feel at ease!
Yun Cang is a person who can't sit still. As soon as he was put on the ground, he ran to play in the mud. After a while, he was playing like a mud monkey.
Yun Jin lay quietly in the carriage and fell asleep.
Just when Yun Zheng was about to get the mud monkey out of the ground, the royal guards came to report that the envoy sent to see Zhao Ji had returned.
Unfortunately, Zhao Ji avoided the meeting and the envoy made a wasted trip.
"not see?"
Yun Zheng couldn't help but frown secretly.
Zhao Ji’s attitude is not very good!
Does Zhao Ji have some concerns, or does he really not want to have anything to do with me?
Miaoyin pondered, "Isn't it that Zhao Ji avoided meeting Yun Li because he was afraid of arousing Yun Li's suspicion?"
“It’s possible!”
Yun Zheng nodded, "However, Zhao Ji has always had some opinions about me, and maybe he really doesn't want to have anything to do with me!"
"Then forget it!"
Miaoyin didn't care, "Anyway, we're not asking him for any help."
"Um!"
Yun Zheng nodded slightly, but he was thinking secretly in his heart...
