Chapter 1017 Retreat and Concession

"What proposal?"

Di Chen said: "For nothing to let Piaolinghuan and Shapojun give up their respective territories, it is indeed a bit difficult for the strong, and the alliance should compensate. My suggestion is that after taking down Xichu, promise the two governors, and one will be in charge of the south of Anhui. Province, one is in charge of Shandong province. What do you think?"

Chun Shenjun and the others looked at Di Chen in surprise. According to Plan Z, the position of governor of the two major provinces was an important bargaining chip, but he did not expect to be given away by Di Chen lightly.

"Is it to buy people's hearts, or do you have other plans?" Jun Shen couldn't understand.

Xiongba appreciated it very much, nodded and said: "I think this proposal is good, simply let Piaolinghuan be the governor of southern Anhui, and Sha Pojun the governor of eastern Shandong."

Dichen's eyes were fixed, as if he had seen through Xiongba's intentions, and he didn't object. The inside of the league is intricate, and it is no easy task to be a good leader.

Many times, Di Chen had to compromise.

Seeing that Chunshen Jun and Zhan Lang didn't expressly object, Di Chen didn't hesitate, and said directly, "Then the matter is settled like this. The battle on the front line is tight, so we can't delay it any longer."

"it is good!"

So far, [Yanhuang League] resolved a big crisis by cutting off its own arm.

…………

After the discussion was over, Sha Pojun and Piao Linghuan returned to their respective territories and got busy quickly.

Now that they decided to give up the territory, they naturally wouldn't let Daxia and Luofengcheng take advantage of it. They took everything they could take away, and burned everything they couldn't take away.

Money, equipment, civil servants and generals, high-level skilled personnel, troops, etc., were all taken away through the teleportation array, and these were also the basis for them to gain a foothold in the province in the future.

Files such as grain and grass, household registration account books, and yamen information were all burned to disgust the enemy.

In just two days, Fallen Leaf City and Shura City had completed their evacuation and fled before the Yingyang Army and Lie Yan Army had reached the main city.

So far, the number of lords in China has shrunk again, leaving only six.

With the 160,000 troops brought by Sha Po Jun and Piao Ling Huan, the battle of Western Chu was irreversible. Even if Xiang Yu was brave and mighty, and Xiang's army was like a wolf like a tiger, they would have to kneel in front of a total of 760,000 allied troops.

The fall of Xichu is only a matter of time.

…………

On April 18th, the Yingyang Army entered Luoye City, and the Flame Army entered Shura City, announcing that the Kansai province changed hands. [Shanhai League] bit off a piece of fat from [Yanhuang League] without a single soldier .

Ouyang Shuo's method of overturning clouds and rain is really amazing. What makes players puzzled is why Daqin and Datang didn't get involved in this war? !

Even if the two dynasties have always had good relations with Daxia, they will not remain indifferent.

"There must be something hidden in it!"

The following plot made the players suddenly realize, but also surprised them.

On the day when the two main cities were won, Da Xia chose to unconditionally transfer the territory of Luoye City to the Tang Dynasty, and Luofeng City chose to unconditionally transfer the territory of Shura City to the Great Qin Empire.

It is equivalent to saying that the fat that Ouyang Shuo and Feng Qiuhuang will get is given away again.

"Weird!"

Great Xia is rich all over the world and has a vast territory. It may not be very distressing to send away the land of two counties. The question is why Luofeng City, which only occupies one province, is so generous this time? !

Players are quite puzzled.

There are various speculations on the forum, including conspiracy theories, fool theories, and even pornographic theories...

I really want to sort it out, I'm afraid it can be made into a big movie.

The truth of the matter is actually very simple, not as complicated as the outside world guesses.

There are three main reasons why Ouyang Shuo teamed up with Feng Prison Huang to play this move.

First, if Tang and Qin were not appeased in advance, this Kansai battle might not have happened.

Without the previously signed credentials, Daqin and Datang have no reason not to accept the asylum applications of Shura City and Fallen Leaf City. Whether it is Qin Shihuang or Tang Taizong, they are peerless heroes and will never act emotionally.

And once the two dynasties intervene, with the troops that the Great Xia can mobilize, it may not be possible to win the Kansai Province. If they were really going to fall into the quagmire of war, Da Xia, who was fighting on two fronts, might not even be able to retreat completely.

That would only be self-defeating, sending Fallen Leaf City and Shura City into the camps of the two great dynasties.

If that was the case, Da Xia would still be able to withstand it, but life in Luofeng City would be difficult. They would not be able to snatch food from Da Qin's jaws, and their relationship would deteriorate.

Counting Mongolia in the north, Handan City in the east, and the Han Dynasty in the south, Luofeng City will be in an embarrassing situation surrounded by enemies, and the situation is worrying.

Unless Daxia helps, Luofeng City in the future will be a dead end, and with the personality of Feng Prisonhuang, how can he be willing to merge into Daxia like this.

This knot is almost unsolvable.

Second, Wangcheng has great uncertainty.

There are already three royal cities in Great Xia, which have become a thorn in Ouyang Shuo's heart. Fortunately, neither Dali, nor Chengdu, nor even Da Sui were too strong opponents.

With the background of Great Xia, Ouyang Shuo can still hold on.

But who are the two lords entrenched in Kansai? One is Qin Shihuang, the first emperor through the ages, and the other is "Tian Khan" Tang Taizong. Neither of them is easy to mess with, let alone a province with two.

In the past two years, Gaia has loosened the ties to the Wangcheng again and again. Who can guarantee that Gaia will not give the Wangcheng greater autonomy in the future? !

Ouyang Shuo didn't dare to take this risk, and Phoenix Prisoner and Huang didn't even dare. The best way was to form an iron-blooded ally with them if they couldn't destroy Wangcheng.

Third, the threat from Mongolia.

As the boss with the largest foreign power in China, the strength of the Mongolian tribe is really amazing. Not to mention that Luofeng City is difficult to support alone, even if Daxia wants to fight against Mongolia, he has to weigh it carefully.

That being the case, it is only natural to find someone to carry it with you.

The Great Qin Empire directly borders Mongolia, and has millions of soldiers. It is really not afraid of Mongolian tribes. It is a very cost-effective deal to form an alliance with Great Qin.

Based on the above considerations, under Zhang Liang's advice, Ouyang Shuo stepped back decisively.

This retreat will open up the sea and the sky.

Daxia and Luofengcheng signed non-aggression covenants with Daqin and Datang respectively, which stabilized the border in one fell swoop and added two more reliable allies.

As for whether Great Qin and Great Tang will go to war in the future, that's out of Ouyang Shuo's consideration.

With the covenant certified by Gaia, Luofeng City has completely eliminated the threat from the west. In the future, it can also rely on the power of the Great Qin Empire when fighting against Mongolia, and the surrounding security situation has been greatly improved.

In addition, Ouyang Shuo took this opportunity to cut off [Yanhuang League]'s arm, so that the results of [Yanhuang League]'s actions in Western Chu were greatly reduced, which is really a good deal.

Moreover, Da Qin and Datang have sold their favor this time, and Da Xia and Luo Fengcheng have their own rewards. Ouyang Shuo got Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty who was looking for help in his dream, and Feng Prison Huang got Meng Yi and Meng Tian brothers.

*************

April 19th, Shanhai City.

On the second day after Daxia transferred the territory of Fallen Leaf City, according to the agreement, Li Jing and his family were teleported to Shanhai City and put under Ouyang Shuo's command.

Ouyang Shuo received the reward and went to the gate of the palace to meet him in person.

Li Jing, who appeared in the wilderness, was nearly fifty years old, but his spirit was strong and strong, and his figure was tall and straight. Although his face was somewhat dull, he was as wise as a fool, and no one dared to despise him.

Speaking of Li Jing, the most legendary folk story is that in "Fengshen Yanyi", Li Jing was transformed into the King of Tota and became a mythical figure.

In fact, this rare all-rounder in civil and military affairs who can "become a general and become a prime minister" has already "lived and died" in the Tang Dynasty. According to legend, Li Jing often appeared after his death, saving the people from danger and disaster, so the people built temples to worship him, so in the late Tang Dynasty, Li Jing was gradually deified.

From this we can see how famous this Great Tang Military God is.

"Li Jing, the last general, pay homage to the king!" Li Jing is a person who pays attention to rules. Since he defected to Daxia according to the agreement, he paid his respects to the new lord without any second thoughts.

Of course, for Li Jing, being able to work under Ouyang Shuo's command is definitely not a bad thing.

[Name]: Li Jing (God level)

【Title】: Military God

[Dynasty]: Tang Dynasty

[Identity]: General of Daxia

[Occupation]: Super General

[Loyalty]: 75 points

[Commander]: 97 [Force]: 85 [Intelligence]: 82 [Politics]: 78

[Speciality]: God of War (increase troop morale by 40%, troop movement speed by 30%, troop defense by 25%, troop lethality by 20%)

【Work】: "Weigong Bingfa"

[Evaluation]: A famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, Li Jing was promoted as the first person. Jing entered the ****, Jieli was captured, and Tuyuhun was conquered, and Fu Yun died. He has made outstanding military exploits and shined brightly. He is outstanding!

"General, hurry up!"

Ouyang Shuo looked happy, "I have been looking forward to the general for a long time, today I get my wish, so happy! So happy!"

Seeing Li Jing, he felt sure.

Seeing that the king valued him so much, his military career in Daxia would not be lonely.

"This is not a place to talk, please come to the study to talk, general." Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly, and led Li Jing to the imperial study, wanting to have a good chat with the Great Tang Army God.

Li Jing didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly followed. Although he was nearly fifty years old, he was agile.

The two chatted for a full two hours. When the ministers of the court heard the news, they couldn't help but feel envious. Now it is a great honor to be able to chat with the king for an hour in the imperial study.

This shows how much the king attaches importance to Li Jing.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, the edict of Li Jing's appointment came out, and the edict said: "Appoint Li Jing as the commander of the Flying Bear Army, walk in the military plane, and take the rank of general."

As soon as the edict came out, all civil and military officials gasped.

The first two items are nothing, but the key is the last item "leading the rank of general". Before that, the entire dynasty only had one person as the general, and Han Xin, Sun Bin, Huo Qubing and Li Mu were all second-class generals.

The commander of the city guards, Shi Wansui, was only a second-rank general.

No one thought that Li Jing would be on an equal footing with Bai Qi as soon as he arrived, becoming the number one figure in the Great Xia army, the king's love for Li Jing is really envious of others.
