"Assault on Gangneung..."
Gao Xi, Liu Bowen and others were stunned for a moment. They did not expect that Wang Jing would have such an idea at this time.
But then they thought about it and realized that Wang Jing's idea was not so whimsical.
When everyone thought that the Xia army was about to go north to compete with Cao Wei for the land of Qingqi, the elite of the Xia army suddenly launched an attack on Jiangling, which indeed had a high chance of success.
The only trouble was how the elite Xia army crossed tens of thousands of miles of the Yangtze River and raided Huan Wen's territory in such a short period of time without everyone's sight.
"This is indeed an opportunity. I agree with your Majesty, but the candidate for the raid on Jiangling must be both wise and courageous!"
Gao Xi said.
Anyway, with the strength of the Xia army, it doesn't matter even if they are discovered by the Eastern Han Dynasty and Huan Wen during the raid. Jiangling is Daxia's strategic target and must be captured.
With Xia's army deploying all its strength, the Eastern Han Dynasty's troops were unable to cross the river. Huan Wen alone was no match for Xia's army.
This is Xia Jun's confidence.
If the conspiracy is discovered, it will be directly transformed into a conspiracy.
Wang Jing thought for a moment, then his eyes fell on Xie Xuan and said: "General Xie is both wise and brave. He made a great contribution to our court by raiding Gaochun last time. I wonder if General Xie dares to take over this post?"
Xie Xuan did not hesitate and stepped forward directly and said: "Your Majesty has orders, and no general will dare to disobey them."
"Okay, I will mobilize the Beifu Army, Bai'er elite troops, and Gao Shun's troops to fall into the camp. A total of 50,000 elite troops will serve as the vanguard. Fu Youde will command 300,000 troops and rush to Jiangxia to join He Ruobi's troops!"
"Fu Youde and He Ruobi are your backup!"
Wang Jing personally mobilized his troops and generals.
Fu Youde, who was called upon by him, also stood up and obeyed respectfully.
In addition to the general Fu Youde, Han Qinhu, who had just defected to Daxia, was also incorporated into the Beifu Army and temporarily acted as Xie Xuan's deputy.
There are also generals such as Fang Jie and Deng Yuanjue under Fang La's command, including Yang Zaixing, Meng Gong, Chen Yucheng, and Shi Dakai, who were all incorporated into the army.
All generals and commanders who have recently defected to Daxia must go with the army.
On the one hand, this is an opportunity for them to make contributions and integrate into the Xia army. On the other hand, Wang Jing wants to see their attitude.
When others say they want to defect, Wang Jing can agree to accept it, but after defecting, the other party must show his value.
Otherwise, what's the use of just being famous.
Many civil and military officials in the palace were listening to Wang Jing's orders, and no one had any objections.
Even people like Shen Yi and Wang Guangyang had no objections, although they felt in their hearts that it would be better for Daxia not to start an army if they could, and to focus all their energy on internal affairs.
But they also understand that Daxia's current strength relies on its elite soldiers who are invincible across the world.
Since the rise of Daxia, Daxia has used troops abroad almost every year.
It doesn’t work without soldiers! Because Daxia develops slowly, other dynasties will surpass Daxia in power.
The current world of China is a time of great strife. If you only think about peaceful development, there is no hope of rising.
In the Daxia Dynasty, Wang Jing's prestige was unprecedented.
Normally, he assigned authority to the officials of the three provinces, six ministries and divisions, but once Wang Jing made a decision, no one in the entire dynasty dared to object.
His single order could shock the entire Great Xia Dynasty. From the central government to the local government, everyone obeyed the order.
This is the prestige of the founding fathers.
After he gave the order, the whole of Daxia began to revolve around his ideas. The Ministry of Government Affairs and the Privy Council began to prepare a large amount of supplies and warships. General Shi Wansui mobilized troops and horses with great fanfare and began to march north.
Daxia is the overlord of the south, and countless people pay attention to every move he makes.
Especially in situations like the mobilization of troops and horses, many spies were closely observing. When Xia Jun made moves, a large number of spies became active, wanting to find out about Xia Jun's movements.
In Jinling City, spies from the Military Intelligence Department and spies from other forces launched a fierce secret battle that many people did not know about.
Several days passed.
Spies from other forces reluctantly found out that Shi Wansui, the general of the Xia army, was preparing to go north to Xuzhou, most likely to fight against Cao Wei.
When someone inquired about this situation, Xia Jun's goal was no longer a secret.
General Feng Yi of the Eastern Han Dynasty who was far away in Hanchuan and Huan Wen of Jiangling breathed a sigh of relief. They secretly prayed that it would be best if both the Xia army and Cao Wei were killed.
Xia Jun's Anqing camp has continued to strangle Jiangxia these days and has grown stronger, which puts a lot of pressure on them.
If it can divert Xia Jun's strategic goal, that would be great.
"Xia Army General Shi Wansui went north...are you looking for me?"
After Cao Wei learned the news, Cao Cao frowned, retaining a trace of doubt in his heart.
At this time, he has dispatched troops and horses to march eastward, approaching Qingzhou, and will soon capture the core town of Gaoqi. By capturing Qingzhou, Cao Wei achieved its strategic goal.
Although it was reasonable for the Xia army to go north to take advantage of the situation at this time, Cao Cao always felt that Xia Lord Wang Jing should not have such a character that he would pounce like a jackal when he saw an advantage.
The Lord of Xia was able to create the Great Xia, and he was invincible in sweeping over the princes from all directions. His mind and skills were all top-notch.
Such a person can definitely see the consequences of Xia's army going north to the Central Plains and fighting with Cao Wei. But the other party sent an army northward at this time?
Cao Cao will naturally have questions in his heart.
Wang Jing, Gao Xi, and Liu Bowen did not want to go north to fight with Cao Cao. They felt that going north to the Central Plains was stepping into a mud pit. Correspondingly, Cao Cao also had similar thoughts.
When he was in Bianliang, Cao Cao had discussed with Xun You, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu and other advisers. Of course, their first target was Gao Qi, but after Gao Qi was destroyed, they were also thinking about their next plan, which was to go south to attack Xuzhou. To start a war with Daxia, it is better to attack Luoyang westward, or to attack Hebei.
For Cao Wei, who occupied half of the Central Plains, there were enemies on all sides, but their expansion direction was also very broad.
After careful discussion, they felt that it was inappropriate to attack the Eastern Han Dynasty to the west, because to the west of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was also the Western Han Dynasty, and the two Han Dynasties were connected with each other. If there was a problem in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty would definitely not sit idly by.
Then the only thing left is to go north or south.
After careful comparison, they found that Daxia has completely occupied Jianghuai and Jiangnan, and has two million elite soldiers. If there is a crisis, tens of millions of troops can be unleashed at any time.
Hebei has not been unified yet. Compared with the two, Hebei is easier to conquer.
Therefore, Cao Wei has set his sights on Hebei and has no intention of fighting with the Xia army.
"Something is unreasonable!"
"Also, even if Xia Jun wants to go north to the Central Plains, he will try his best to hide his movements. Now it seems that there is a bit of fanfare!"
Cao Cao was thinking in his mind.
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility, and his eyes suddenly flashed with light.
