"Your Majesty, since the defeat of King Su Hao of Southern Xinjiang, our army has been retreating steadily. In the past two days, King Chen and King Xiang respectively led their troops to withdraw. Now there are less than 300,000 people left on the front line. Tianyue Hou Yu Tianyun has ordered all troops to retreat. The army retreated two hundred miles, and now all five northern states have fallen into the hands of thieves!" Qiu Jing, an old eunuch, reported truthfully.
"What a great king, King Xiang, I will remember it!" Wang Shiliu clenched his fist.
Since she ascended the throne, in addition to the ministers being dissatisfied with her, the vassal kings were also targeting her at every turn. Many vassal princes who originally stood on the side of the court have now sided with King Zhenhu, and the rest are also keeping a wait-and-see attitude. .
The imperial court was now weak, and Wang Shiliu suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
She braved the disapproval of the world and ascended the throne as a woman to proclaim herself emperor, just to allow the Wang family to continue and clean up her brother's mess, but she didn't expect it to be so difficult.
She can kill those who oppose her in the imperial city, but she cannot kill all the rebels outside the imperial city!
Fortunately, Tianyue Hou Yu Tianyun, who was leading the army from the front, was her uncle, and at least he was on her side.
"I am ordering Marquis Tianyue to hold on to the city and never allow the rebels to advance further south. I will find a way to provide reinforcements!"
Although that is what he said, Wang Shiliu is now one of the top two, so there are no reinforcements!
"Old slave obeys the order."
Just when Qiu Jing was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and said quickly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, you can try to ask for help from Southern Xinjiang."
"Southern Xinjiang?" Wang Shiliu frowned.
The King of Southern Xinjiang, Su Hao, has always been loyal, but now that Su Hao is dead and all 80,000 Southern Xinjiang cavalry have been buried in the Northern Barbarians, how can there be any troops to support the imperial court?
I heard that the prince of Southern Xinjiang, Su Che, is a idiot. Once his father Su Hao dies, Southern Xinjiang will definitely be in turmoil. It’s hard to say who will become the new master of Southern Xinjiang!
The imperial court now has no time to take into account the situation in southern Xinjiang, and it is also impossible for southern Xinjiang to have free time to support the imperial court.
Qiu Jing seemed to see Wang Shiliu's worries and said quickly: "Your Majesty, the spies just came to report that General Li Yicheng of Yanjing led an army of 50,000 to attack Nanjiang City with the intention of rebelling. Su Che, the crown prince of Southern Xinjiang, suppressed him with thunderous means. Su Che even announced to the world that he will inherit the position of King of Southern Xinjiang and become the new Lord of Southern Xinjiang!"
"What are you talking about? Su Che suppressed Li Yicheng???" Wang Shiliu's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
Of course she knew Li Yicheng. He was a famous general in southern Xinjiang. She had already thought of Li Yicheng's rebellion, but she never expected that Li Yicheng had never fought against that idiot Su Che?
"Exactly what is going on, please tell me in detail!" Wang Shiliu suddenly became interested.
The old eunuch Qiu Jingdang told the news that the spies had returned word for word.
Wang Shiliu's expression became solemn after hearing this. He lowered his head and began to think deeply. After a while, he said: "What a black armor soldier, what a man pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. It's really a good idea. Sure enough, the tiger's father has no dog son. I underestimated him, Su Che. Everyone in the world underestimates him, Su Che!"
"Immediately send someone to Nanjiang City to convey my decree, make Su Che the King of Southern Xinjiang, and lead an army of 150,000 Xuanjia troops to go north to fight against the thieves. Set off immediately, without any mistakes!"
…
At the same time, in Nanjiang City, Nanjiang Prince's Mansion, and Su Che's bedroom.
Cai Wenji was helping Su Che wash up, while Jia Yu was standing aside respectfully.
"Master Jia, how are the grains I asked you to distribute a few days ago?"
Jia Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Back to your lord, I have already distributed them to various states and counties, and some states and counties have already sent people to plant them."
A few days ago, Su Che handed over all the corn, potatoes and other crops in the system space to Jia Yu, asking him to distribute them to various states and counties, and use these crops as seeds to be planted separately.
There are no potatoes or corn in Tianqiong. Most food crops can be considered high-yielding if they can produce five dan per mu. Jia Yu was almost shocked when he learned that potatoes can not only be used as a staple food, but also have a yield of more than 40 dan per mu.
Even corn, which is far inferior to potatoes, has a yield of more than fifteen stones per mu, which is several times that of ordinary crops in Tianqiong!
This is simply a divine thing!
Although he didn't know where Su Che got these things, there was no need for Su Che to lie to him.
As a state official, Jia Yu is well aware of the importance of food to a region. With these magical items, the people of southern Xinjiang will no longer have to go hungry!
When reporting to Su Che, Jia Yu's eyes were filled with excitement that could not be concealed.
Although it was Su Che who brought these things out, as the implementer, he, Jia Yu, will also leave a mark in history. How can he not be excited about this?
After listening to Jia Yu's report, Su Che nodded with satisfaction. It must be said that Jia Yu's ability to do things was really strong. In just one day, the matter was completed.
At the beginning, Su Che couldn't see that Jia Yu was a loser and looked down on him, a good-for-nothing prince. The reason why he kept Jia Yu was because he took a fancy to Jia Yu's ability.
After all, Jia Yu had been the governor of southern Xinjiang for more than 20 years. If his ability was not up to par, he would have been replaced by his father long ago.
Su Che also had his own considerations when taking out the grain extracted from the system and giving it to Jia Yu.
Most of his military coins must be used for lottery draws. It is impossible to exchange them all for food. The soldiers must find ways to provide food and grass.
As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. If corn and potatoes can be successfully grown in southern Xinjiang, not only will the people in southern Xinjiang be able to have enough to eat, but they will also not have to worry about food for the soldiers.
"By the way, what happened to the heads of the rebels that the king ordered to be sent to various counties?"
Jia Yu smiled slightly and said quickly: "Back to the prince, after receiving the heads of the rebels, people from all over the country wrote letters to express their loyalty to the prince. The guards at the six border gates did not show any dissatisfaction after receiving the order to change the defense. It has been smooth. Defense switch completed."
"In addition, when the people learned that the prince had exempted southern Xinjiang from taxes for two years, they all praised the prince for his benevolent government and caring for the people. They are all grateful to you, the prince!"
Su Che nodded. Although he had already thought of this result, he still couldn't help but smile when he heard Jia Yu's words.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the novice mission to stabilize the situation in southern Xinjiang, unify southern Xinjiang, and obtain the rewards of four-star characters Jiang Wei, 60,000 Euphorbias, and Zhuge Liannu*7000]
[A new mission has been released, mission goal: unify the four states]
Euphorbia warriors were the heavy armored infantry under Yuan Shao during the Three Kingdoms period. Each soldier was equipped with heavy armor and a halberd. They were one of the best elite soldiers, known as the cavalry nemesis!
Needless to say, Zhuge Liennu is a repeating crossbow machine invented by Zhuge Liang. It has very strong firepower. It is said that it can fire ten crossbow arrows continuously.
But what surprised Su Che the most was the fourth character, Tianshui Jiang Boyue!
There have been mixed reviews of Jiang Wei in history. Some people thought that he was militaristic and wasted the national power of Shu, but Su Che thought that Jiang Wei was a rare talent and a hero!
He was both civilized and military, and was very proud at a young age. After Zhuge Liang's death, Jiang Wei devoted himself to the Shu Kingdom and took charge of the Central Plains nine times. In the end, even if the Shu Kingdom was destroyed, Jiang Wei still wanted to restore the country with one man's power!
Such a heroic general is praiseworthy and admirable!
Just when Su Che was about to summon Jiang Wei to see his true appearance, Xue Rengui hurried over.
"Lord, it's bad, the Huns are going south!"
