Qingzhou.

After waiting for almost a month and a half, Xiao Ming finally waited for Luo Quan to lead the troops back.

During this period, intelligence kept coming from Bashu, but he was very clear that these were delayed war reports. For the first time, he missed the modern telephone and telegram very much.

If he had these things, his eyes would be black.

"Emperor, there are less than 10000 barbarian cavalry still wandering in the territory of Dayu. Qi guangyizheng leads the carapace cavalry to continue to pursue. It must not be a month before all the invading enemies will be annihilated."

On the political hall, Luo Quanlang said.

On the third day when achige fled to Chang'an, he led some soldiers back to Qingzhou. After ten days of trekking, he finally returned to Qingzhou.

On the way, he learned that Qi Guangyi had found a group of barbarian cavalry. After the fierce battle, half of the 10000 barbarian cavalry were killed and half were captured.

So back in Qingzhou, he reported it to Xiao Ming for the first time.

All the ministers in the discussion hall are relieved. They are worried and unable to work hard these days.

Fijian said: "emperor, Bodo was killed, and all the main barbarian forces were wiped out. The remaining 10000 barbarian cavalry, who are not familiar with the land in Dayu, may be wiped out in a few days. The crisis of Bashu is relieved. "

" what Fei Ge said is very true. I hope the emperor doesn't have to worry too much about the dragon body. " Said Pang.

Xiao Ming has always been worried about this matter. Sometimes he is listless in the court. The ministers are worried in their eyes. At this time, they can't help persuading him.

His brow widened a little, and Xiao Ming said: "nevertheless, during the barbarians' rampage, Bashu suffered heavy losses, hundreds of thousands of people died and millions of people were displaced. This event undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to the reform of Dayu state. A land of abundance could have provided a lot of taxes for the imperial court, but now the imperial court has to transport grain for disaster relief. "

the ministers in the political hall were silent.

Xiao Ming's words are not exaggerated. The purpose of the barbarians' trip is very insidious. At the same time, they also burn everything they can burn.

In this way, a large number of people are homeless, and the grain that can be harvested immediately is burned, making the life of the people even more difficult.

"Emperor, at least the production team initially established in Bashu played a lot of roles. Many people fled into the mountains to avoid being slaughtered by the barbarians. The lost wealth can be returned, but the people are the most valuable in Bashu. "Said Fiji.

Luo Quan echoed: "emperor, it's true. The barbarian massacres mainly occurred in Songzhou, Yazhou and the cities leading to Yizhou. Although there were casualties among the people in the village, most of them were spared. Moreover, the plundered things of the barbarians were captured by us. Returning these things to the people can let the people pass the winter."

Xiao Ming nodded, which was good news in bad news for him. The rescue was timely, otherwise Bashu would only suffer more losses.

After a brief account of the situation in Bashu, Xiao Ming's eyes suddenly flashed a trace of ruthlessness. He said: "the barbarians will not die when they die. One day the barbarians will not die, and the state of Chongqing will not be safe. For the safety of the state of Chongqing, we must fight back against the barbarians, so that they can no longer be so rampant."

Pang Yukun said solemnly: "the emperor should think twice, don't fall into the enemy's trap. The news from the secret guards is very strange. This time the barbarians were instructed by others through Tubo."

”It is precisely because someone obstructs me that I have to deal with the barbarians, otherwise it will be more difficult to deal with them when they become strong. "Said Xiao Ming.

During the Bashu rebellion, Wang Xuan sent someone to send back a piece of information. At that time, Pang Yukun and Fiji were both there. He told them casually.

Wang Xuan's intelligence clearly mentioned that there was a golden haired and blue eyed Westerner in Shengdu of Jinzhang khanate, and this westerner was still around Beishan.

According to this information, he can easily judge that this is another conspiracy of Britain after Japan.

The British, who are used to the balanced policy in Europe, brought it to Asia.

They first went to Japan, and then to Jinzhang Khanate. Their purpose was very clear, which was to restrict the development of Dayu on land and sea at the same time.

Europe in this world, whether in science and technology or in politics, is obviously more mature than Europe in his time.

But it also brought him trouble.

In his view, it may be the development of science and technology in Dayu that has aroused the vigilance of the British, or it may be the cooperation between him and the Dutch that has angered them.

Whatever it is, the British are not friendly to him now.

So now he has to find a way to let the British strategy fail. He can no longer give the British time to support the Golden Horde and the Japanese.

"Pang Shoufu's worry is really superfluous. Now the army of the state of Dayu is not what it used to be. This time, the power of firearms has been revealed. "Luo Quan said confidently.

Xiao Ming nodded. His confidence came from the equipment of the rifle.

It can be said that the army of Dayu is now a standard firearm force, and it is not inferior to the Western army in terms of equipment and training level.However, the barbarians are still in the grassland empire in the feudal era, which is hard to resist in the face of the advanced firearms and tactics of the state of Dayu.

Had it not been for the barbarians living on the grassland and relying on the strong mobility of the horses, he would have launched an attack on the barbarians.

But now he still can't go to the grassland, the number of cavalry in Dayu is still too small, but he can go to the barbarian areas.

In addition to Shengjing, there are six barbarian cities from Shanhaiguan to the foot of Changbai Mountain, which extend in a straight line.

For a long time, it was through these six cities that the barbarians provided supplies to occupy the Sixteen States of Yanyun. Now he wants to seize these six cities and plunder people and livestock from the barbarians.

For him, the days when the state of Dayu became poorer and poorer are gone forever. Now, like them, he wants to become richer and richer.

At the same time, it is also the best memorial for the dead people in Bashu.

"Emperor, even if you want to fight, you can't fight in winter. It's cold in the north, and the soldiers' clothes are thin. I'm afraid that before the war starts, the soldiers will be frostbitten a lot."

Seeing that Xiao Ming seems to have made up his mind, Fiji reminds him.

"Feige is at ease. Although I'm very angry, I haven't lost my head yet." Xiao Ming said that he knew better than these ministers about the severity of winter and would not foolishly fight the Golden Horde in winter.

Niu Zhen and Luo Quan are veterans, and naturally they know why.

After finding out what Xiao Ming thought, Luo Quan said, "emperor, in this case, what should be done to the barbarian generals who were sent to Qingzhou this time?"
