Chapter 413 The Southern Kingdom and the Barbarians

Chapter 412: Southern Kingdom and Barbarians

Deng Qiang's words made Zhu Sheng speechless. Although Deng Qiang said it nicely, will things really go as smoothly as Deng Qiang said?At this time, Zhu Sheng had a big question mark in his heart. Obviously, he was not very optimistic about the group of boys without guards. He even hoped that Deng Qiang could directly take over the command of the army and be fully responsible for conquering the south, but He also knew that this was impossible, because once he did this, Deng Sheng would definitely be furious, and Deng Qiang would not agree to this, so Zhu Sheng just smiled and said nothing.

Working with Zhu Sheng for so many years, Deng Qiang also saw the worry in Zhu Sheng's heart, so he said with a smile: "Military commanders don't have to worry. Although these boys are young, their abilities are not very extraordinary. A mere southern country can't help them. , besides, if they can't even solve a small southern country, how will they take over the class of us old guys in the future, and go to the Central Plains to compete with the famous generals of Qin and Zhao? They have no problem!"

"I hope so!" After listening to Deng Qiang's words, Zhu Sheng said with a sigh.

After Deng Qiang left, in Wudangwei's central army tent, Wudangwei's generals began to discuss the matter of dispatching troops. This was Wudangwei and their first battle, so they must be fully prepared and fight a battle. A beautiful victory, only in this way, they can go to the Central Plains they have longed for.

In the middle of the big tent of the Wudangwei Central Army, there is a map. This is a map of the entire southern Sichuan and the border of the Southern Kingdom. Don't look at Wudangwei who has been training soldiers all these years. It seems that nothing has been done, but In fact, Deng Zhong and others arranged countless secret operations to infiltrate the southern country to collect information on the southern country, and drew such a map of the southern country, in order to raise troops to attack the southern country one day, and now it can finally come in handy.

"Military division, I wonder if you have any opinion on this expedition to the South?" Asking the military division if there is something undecided, this has been the tradition of Wudangwei generals. When Wudangwei was first established, Deng Zhong and others They are still teenagers, and they are very immature in many places. Most of them are solved by relying on Su Yun, which is why they formed such a habit. Now that it is such an important thing to go to the expedition, they must be the first to ask. Su Yun, the military adviser's opinion.

Su Yun looked at the map and said: "In the Southern Kingdom, there are Yuexi County, Cangzhou County, Yongchang County, Qianwei County (belonging to Qianwei County in the Southern Kingdom, which is also the vassal state of Qianwei in the Eastern Han Dynasty), Yizhou County, Guilin County, and Cangwu County. There are seven counties in the county, and Dianchi, the capital of the Southern Kingdom, is located in Yizhou County. It is the largest city in the Southern Kingdom. There are about 6 troops in the Southern Kingdom. For a long time, 2 troops have been stationed in Cangwu County, and 2 million troops have been stationed in Dianchi Lake. , responsible for deterring the barbarians in the country, and [-] people are stationed in Qianwei County."

Su Yun immediately revealed the family background of the Southern Kingdom. The seven counties of the Southern Kingdom are very large in terms of the region. However, most of the Southern Kingdom is virgin land that has not been developed. Although the territory is vast, the population is not large. It took 200 years to save 6 people, which shows that the background of the Southern Kingdom is very thin. As long as Deng Jun can defeat the main force of the Southern Army in one fell swoop, the entire Southern Kingdom will be easily won.

"However, according to recent reports from Xiaozuo, Nanguo seems to have learned that my Great Deng is going to use troops against him, so he brought back all the soldiers and horses stationed in Cangwu County, and also dispatched 5 elite troops from Dianchi Lake to Zhu Ti As a result, there are now a total of [-] Southern troops stationed in Qianwei County in the Southern Kingdom, which is comparable in strength to our army!" Su Yun said again.

It is not a secret that Deng Guo will use troops against the Southern Kingdom, and Deng Sheng never thought of keeping it a secret. After all, even if a small Southern Kingdom is prepared in advance, it will not be Deng Guo's opponent, so why bother? What's the point?And Deng Sheng also really wanted to see Nan Guo's desperate look of being unable to change the result even though he had tried his best.

"Isn't it just 5 people? There's nothing to be afraid of. I don't believe that these barbarians can turn the world upside down!" Chang Mao said nonchalantly. He has been stationed in Nanguang these years and has seen many Most of the few southerners wear primitive clothes and behave rudely. In Chang Mao's view, they are a group of barbarians.

"Mr. Su, I don't know what's going on with the barbarians in the Southern Kingdom?" Deng Han, who was listening carefully, asked. Apart from the tens of thousands of southern troops, there is another big problem in the Southern Kingdom, which is Barbarians, this group of Southern barbarians are uncrowned kings in the Nanzhong area. From Zhao Tuo’s Nanyue Kingdom to the present Southern Kingdom, they can’t do anything to them, and they are also different from the Shanyue people in Kuaiji. Although the Shanyue people still exist , and there are quite a few people, but they have been forced by the Yue Kingdom to live a miserable life in the deep mountains and old forests, but the Nanman people still have a very strong strength so far, almost on an equal footing with the Southern Kingdom.

And when he left Wancheng, Deng Sheng also said to him that it is not difficult to solve the southern country, but it is not so simple to solve the Nanman people, the uncrowned king of the southern central region. Deng Sheng also said that how to deal with the Nanman people is the top priority of Deng Guo this time. As long as the Nanman people surrender, it will be easy to pacify Nanzhong.

Hearing Deng Han mentioning the Southern Barbarians, Su Yun couldn't help but glanced at Deng Han with a smile. The age difference between him and Deng Han was a little big, and they were not very familiar with each other. Although it was rumored that Deng Sheng's sons were all There are dragons and phoenixes among people, but after all, he has never seen it with his own eyes, and Su Yun is also skeptical, but now Deng Han has revealed the key to pacifying Nanzhong and winning Nanguo, which makes Su Yun look up to Deng Han How much.

Su Yun said: "The barbarians in Nanzhong are said to be the descendants of Chiyou's Jiuli tribe. There are dozens of tribes in the entire Nanzhong area, ranging from 3 to 50 people to thousands of people, scattered throughout the entire Nanzhong area. In the territory of the Southern Kingdom, there are about [-] million people. I don’t know the specifics, but these barbarians are constantly fighting with each other, but it is very strange that whenever the Southern Kingdom sends troops to conquer the barbarians, these people usually have deep hatred. All the barbarian tribes will join forces to resist the southern army, which is why the southern country has been reluctant to deal with the barbarians, but all this changed a few years ago!"

"Why is this?" Deng Yu asked a little puzzled.

Su Yun said: "Six years ago, the Zhu clan of the barbarian tribe formed an alliance with the southern kingdom, and its patriarch Zhu Shang personally served as the general of the southern kingdom, which changed the relationship between the southern kingdom and the barbarians, which was originally in a state of balance. , the Zhu clan was originally the largest barbarian tribe in the Southern Kingdom. After the Zhu clan returned to the Southern Kingdom, it also brought some of the barbarian tribes into the Southern Kingdom. As a result, the strength of the Southern Kingdom completely surpassed the barbarian tribes, and the barbarian tribes had to let go of their great hatred for each other. Unite together to resist the Zhu clan and the Southern Kingdom, but even so, their living space is still constantly suppressed by the Southern Kingdom. Another big clan, the Wuzhi tribe, the Wuzhi tribe was originally able to keep pace with the Zhu's tribe, but these years, with the support of the Southern Kingdom, the Zhu's tribe has continuously annexed other tribes, which greatly reduced the strength of the Wuzhi tribe. weakening."

After listening to Su Yun's words, Deng Han frowned immediately, and said: "It seems that my big Deng conquered the Southern Kingdom this time is really timely. If it is a few years later, the Southern Kingdom may have to integrate the entire barbarian tribe. By then At that time, the Southern Kingdom will be even more difficult to deal with, by the way, Su Junshi, I wonder if the Wuzhi tribe you mentioned can be used by my Great Deng?"

Su Yun shook his head and said: "This is not clear, our army has never had any contact with the Wuzhi tribe, and I heard that the Wuzhi tribe has always been proud of being the descendant of Chi You, and will never submit to anyone This is why Nanguo has never been able to completely eliminate the barbarians, but now Nanguo and Zhu's tribe have pushed the Wuzhi tribe to a desperate situation. In order to survive, it is not impossible for the Wuzhi tribe to fall to us. Deng, you can try this."

The barbarians have their own beliefs and honors, and they cannot be surrendered casually. It took the Southern Kingdom 200 years to make them surrender. Deng Guo, as an outsider, really has little hope, but Su Yun didn't say it dead. After all, the situation of the barbarians headed by the Wuzhi tribe is not optimistic. If they do not choose to surrender, the only thing waiting for the barbarians is their destruction, so it is still possible to recruit the barbarians to their subordinates.

Deng Han nodded, and then said to Deng Zhong: "General, the general thought that we could try to win over the Wuzhi tribe. If the Wuzhi tribe is willing to submit to me, it will have a great impact on Deng's future control of Nanzhong. of help."

Deng Zhong also agrees with this point. Once the Wuzhi tribe falls to Deng State, it means that before the war, the barbarians who are known as the biggest trouble in Deng State's control of South China will be solved. It's worth mentioning, so Deng Zhong nodded and said to Su Yun: "In this case, the military division will send someone to contact the people of the Wuzhi tribe, tell the Wuzhi tribe our sincerity, and strive to bring the Wuzhi tribe under its command. !"

"Here!" Su Yun responded.
