MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-v2 Chapter 1151 Let the thieves dare not look south!

   Chapter 1151 Make thieves dare not look south!

Li Xin, the core of the Southwest Group, set a strategy to seize the power of the imperial court. In addition, the three giants within the Southwest Group were very willing to do it. Therefore, the things arranged by Li Xin were quickly implemented. Not only Dozens of middle-level officers of the Southwest Army were sent out to serve as local officials, and several high-level generals were sent out to command the troops.

   When these high-level generals go to the locality, it is not just as simple as grasping authority. The main thing they have to do is to win over the local tyrants and promote some local generals.

   After all, it is difficult for officials who are airborne from the imperial court to quickly gain power, and if they are not competent enough, they will be overridden by local bosses.

  Under a multi-pronged approach, the reality of the Southwest Army began to spread rapidly from the capital to the local area.

Of course, this kind of spread is not endless. After all, even the original Great Jin court, or even the Emperor Wu's court at its peak, could not completely control the place, and the past dynasties could not do it, and could only maintain with the local forces. Clever balance.

Li Xin and others have to do everything, so that the forces of the Southwest Army can actually influence the locality, and even control some local powers. In this case, most local forces will see the situation clearly. If the clan kings of the Ji family want to rebel, these local forces can easily nip these rebellions in the bud without waiting for the Southwest Army to act.

   These are all internal hidden dangers that may arise when the "world is changing surnames" in the future.

   In addition to these internal hidden dangers, Dajin also has some external hidden dangers that need to be dealt with, such as... the Yuwen tribes in the north.

  To be honest, there is He Xiong and the Yunzhou Army stationed in the northern Xinjiang. Today's Yuwen tribes, in fact, have no way to pose any threat to Dajin, but not now, does not mean that there will be no future.

  If Li Xin had let the Xianbei Ministry in the north go unchecked, when the time came to change the dynasty, there would inevitably be a period of turmoil within the Dajin. At this time, the Xianbei Ministry was very likely to take advantage of it and cause chaos in Jiangbei again.

At this time, the loudest speaker in the Xianbei clan was no longer Yu Wenzhao, but Yu Wentao of the Helan clan, and it was this Yuwentao who was held by Li Xin as the head of the Helan clan. When the Yunzhou army returned to Beijing, they brought the other two tribes to harass the frontier of Dajin, which made Li Xin quite annoyed for a while.

   For both public and private, he has to sweep away the hidden dangers in Jiangbei.

   This is a very difficult thing. The difficulty is not how strong these Xianbei tribes are, but the difficulty is that these nomads have no fixed place to live.

The Central Plains Dynasty can defeat them again and again, but as long as they flee to the north, the Central Plains Dynasty's army generally has nothing to do with them. Under such a tug-of-war, these nomads can be defeated dozens or even hundreds of times. Second, they can still return to the north to recover their vitality calmly. Once they are allowed to wait until the Central Plains Dynasty is weak, they only need a big victory to hit or even destroy the Central Plains Dynasty, and they can even enter the main gate.

Although Li Xin made a firearm, this thing can only change the combat power on paper, or strengthen the defense power of Jimen Pass and Yunzhou City. There is no bonus in terms of "moving speed", which means that even if The current Xianbei Ministry is not an opponent of the imperial court, they can still fight if they want, and run away if they want.

   In the few months after Li Xin returned to Beijing from Ningling, in addition to arranging the staff of the local generals, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the matter of how to deal with the Xianbei Ministry.

In the past few months, Ye Mao, who was brought back from Ningling by Li Xin, although his injuries were not very good, but after resting in Chen Guogong's mansion for a few days, he entered the Shenji Camp and began to study systematically. The use of these new firearms.

   After a few months, he already knew a lot about Shenji Camp's firearms and the principles of these firearms.

   It was already July, and it was the hottest time in the capital.

  Ye Mao, who was only wearing a singlet, was covered in sweat, and was watching the birth of a firearm in the firearms prison secretly established by the imperial court.

   His face was covered in black ashes. Obviously, he was not just watching from the sidelines. Most of the structure of this firearm was hammered out by Chen Guogong himself.

  Ye Mao wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and looked at the firearm in front of him, his eyes shining brightly.

   A firearms monitor craftsman walked over, came to Ye Mao, and said with a smile, "Big man, someone is looking for you outside."

Ye Mao first stayed in the Shenji Camp for two months before he was assigned by Li Xin to the firearms prison where firearms were made. Whether it was the soldiers of the Shenji Camp or the craftsmen in the firearms prison, few knew about this big man. real identity.

   Ye Mao heard the words, reluctantly looked at the firearm he made, nodded and said, "I see."

   He took off his soaked undershirt, wiped the sweat from his face with his undershirt, changed into a single shirt, and walked out.

   Outside the firearms prison, a black carriage was waiting for Ye Mao in the shade of a tree.

Ye Guo recognized the carriage, walked over quickly, bent over and got into the carriage, and then said to the people in the carriage with a smile: "Uncle, if you have something to do, just send me a letter, why? Are you here to see me in person?"

Li Xin, who was sitting in the carriage, glanced at Ye Mao quietly, and said helplessly: "In the past three months, you will be nowhere to be seen when you rush into the Shenji Camp and the Firearms Supervision. People from Chen Guogong's mansion often come to my mansion to look for me. , and asked where the prince of their family was hidden by me."

  Ye Mao scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "I left a message for them, saying that I was going to work, why is it so noisy..."

  Li Xin shook his head and asked Ye Mao, "It's been more than three months, how have you learned?"

   Ye Mao said with a smile: "This kind of thing that can kill people, I naturally have to figure out what's going on. Uncle, don't worry. Although I'm not very smart, I have already figured out about 70% to 80% of firearms."

  Li Xin nodded, his face calm.

   "I received news that the Xianbei Ministry in the north..."

   "Civil strife."

Li Xin said slowly: "Last year Yuwentao ate us hard at the border and took away a lot of property and people. After returning, the Helan Department began to look for Yuwenzhao's troubles. After a few months, the two sides have deep grievances. , according to the news from our north, the two sides have almost started to do it now."

Governor Li took a deep breath and continued: "These nomadic people are extremely difficult to deal with. Even if you defeat them, you will not be able to eliminate them. They will make a comeback in ten or twenty years. If you want to escape, the court simply cannot catch up."

   "This time is an opportunity."

   Governor Li let out a sigh of relief.

"If there is internal coaxing within the Yuwen Department, it will be an opportunity for us to do it. I will bring you a thousand soldiers of the Shenji Battalion and let them go north with you. The forbidden troops that He Siong brought to Jimen Pass will also be under your command. "

   "I don't ask you to quell the Xianbei barbarians in the north."

   Li Xin raised his head and glanced at Ye Mao, his voice was cold.

   "But you have to give them a hard time, so that they won't dare to look south for at least 20 years!"
