Great Martial Arts Auxiliary System

Chapter 1049 Next Steps

Furthermore, Nangong Shiluo has just given birth to a great-grandson for Shangguan's family.

If Xuanyuan Bingyu comes at that time, he will definitely overwhelm his grandson-in-law in terms of status.

Shangguanxiong obviously didn't want to see this.

After thinking about it, my grandson has grown up, and now even the internal and external affairs of the entire Shangguan family are handled properly.

He doesn't need to worry too much about this private matter.

So, he nodded slightly, and continued to focus on the little guy.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and the great-grandson is the biggest.

Under the love of the house, the old man does not want Nangong Shiluo, the grandson-in-law, to be wronged.

Although Shangguan's family was favored by the emperor, it ranked first among the eight great princes' families of Dayu.

However, how many of the eight major families are left?

Two families, yes that's right, only the Qi family and their Shangguan family are left.

Since the opening of Yucheng, of the seven Dukes' families that stayed in Yucheng, now only Duke Qi's family is left.

The remaining six major families, including the family members left in various fiefdoms, were all destroyed.

What happened in it, he could guess with his toes.

Obviously, the Xuanyuan royal family could no longer stand the shackles of the eight major families on the royal family.

The various attitudes of the imperial court towards their own family are obviously because they occupy the southern border and are very powerful.

There was no further pressure.

Otherwise, how could the imperial court allow the Shangguan family to occupy the southern border.

Thinking that Xuanyuanjing had nothing to do and sent people to the southern border to stir up wind and rain, Shangguan Qiuyu couldn't help asking:
"By the way, Grandpa, can the northern army stationed in northern Xinjiang be withdrawn?"

Now that the imperial court has established a firm foothold in the Central Plains, there will be no conflicts with other forces for the time being.

Which son of Beishenhou has now represented Beishenhou's mansion to the imperial court and is willing to obey the imperial court's dispatch.

One million northern troops under his own command are stationed in northern Xinjiang to guard against northern captives.

If Xuanyuanjing was more ruthless, then the remaining millions of northern troops would probably follow in the footsteps of the northern army that entered Yucheng.

When the northern army was mentioned, Shangguan Xiong's face was a little embarrassed.

Feeling very guilty in his heart, he murmured in a low voice:

"I have already sent someone to deliver the letter, but the northern captives have been eyeing the northern border, and they have no chance of going south.

If the imperial court ignores it and does not send troops to reinforce Beishenhou Mansion, once the northern army goes south, it is very likely that northern Xinjiang will fall.

At that time, the hundreds of millions of unarmed people in northern Xinjiang are very likely to suffer a devastating blow from the northern captives. "

Hearing this, Shangguan Qiuyu frowned and said:
"Has Xuanyuan Jing not given a clear answer?"

The old man sighed slightly:

"Yes, there is, and that's why Grandpa mentioned the Ninth Princess to you just now.

Who is planning what, you should be very clear.

Northern Xinjiang has always been a confidant of the imperial court, and it is obviously impossible to resist the offensive of the northern captives with just the Beishenhou Mansion alone.

Once the northern army retreats, the imperial court must dispatch a large army to the north.

With such a big burden, do you think that kid would be willing to let the Northern Army go south? "

Speaking of this, Shangguan Xiong couldn't help but sigh.

He couldn't bear to let the northern army, which had been the cornerstone of the Shangguan family, stay in northern Xinjiang to die.

However, what if I can't bear it?

Once the northern army of millions of northern borders goes south, Dayu's northern border will inevitably be broken by the northern captives.

At that time, how will the hundreds of millions of people in northern Xinjiang treat his Shangguan family, and how the world will treat their Shangguan family.

Just for the sake of the Shangguan family's reputation, the Northern Army cannot withdraw.

Once Shangguan Xiong dared to order the northern army to go south, the Shangguan family's reputation accumulated for thousands of years would definitely be lost.

'Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world'

No matter how strong a power is, once it loses the support of the people, it will not get the support of the people.

The power of the Shangguan family will inevitably suffer a devastating blow.

At that time, no matter how good Shangguan Qiuyu's martial arts skills are, will he still be able to fight against everyone in the world?

However, if the northern army does not go south, let it be consumed a little bit, the final outcome of the million northern army can be imagined.

At the beginning, Shangguan Qiuyu led 50 northern troops to the south alone, and now there are only a thousand remaining in the northern army of more than 100 million.

This is not only the old man's pain, but also his Shangguan Qiuyu's pain.

But the imperial court did not agree to increase troops to the northern border, and the million northern troops could not go south.

There used to be nearly 300 million northern troops, if only 50 could be preserved, one-sixth.

This number is really unbearable.

Following the silence of the grandfather and grandson, the girls at the table did not dare to speak.

They all held their bowls and did not speak. For a while, the atmosphere in the living room became heavy.

After a long time, the old man heaved a deep sigh and recovered.

After all, big winds and waves are coming, and this is not enough for him to let go.

The old man said: "Leave this matter aside for the time being, now Mandi has calmed down.

The foreign aggression is gone, next step, can you think about what to do? "

"Next step?" Shangguan Qiuyu muttered to himself.

To be honest, he really didn't think about the next step, where he should develop.

With the pacification of the barbarian land, there will be no foreign troubles in southern Xinjiang.

Southern Xinjiang's next plan is nothing more than two points.

Either march into the Central Plains, or march into the South.

Whether it is the Central Plains or the Southland, it is not easy to make progress in these two places.

Dragons and snakes are mixed in the Central Plains, and once the Shangguan family enters the Central Plains.

Not only have to face the Yu court, but also local aristocratic families and sect forces.Seven seven eight eight, countless.

As for the Southland, which is close at hand, although the situation is not as complicated as that of the Central Plains.

However, Southland was a tough nut to crack at the time.

It is easy to win the Shangguan family, but it is too difficult to completely control it.

The five holy families on the bright side alone can be said to be what the people in the south want.

Once the Five Holy Families unite to resist the rule of the Shangguan family, then the Southland will be like a piece of chicken rib.

It is a pity that it is tasteless.

After all, he can't just uproot the Wusheng family and use it for surgery, right?
Which would not arouse the anger of the people of the entire southern land, both humans and gods.

The ancestor of the Five Holy Family has been worshiped by the people of the Southland for generations.

Will the Shangguan family dare to take action against what the people want?
Unless they don't want the territory in the Southland, the Wusheng family is a hurdle that all forces cannot overcome.

And once the Shangguan family wants to swallow the entire Southland, they have to consider the people's hearts of the Southland.

This is also the reason why any dynasty in the past dynasties chose to rule the Southland together with the Five Sacred Families.

In this regard, Shangguan Qiuyu would rather choose the Central Plains than move to the South now.

Now the Shangguan family only occupies the five states in southern Xinjiang and the barbaric land they just laid down.

If he swallowed the southern land in a hurry at this time, it would inevitably cause internal conflicts.

He doesn't like to compromise, and he doesn't like to compromise.

If he wants to swallow the Southland right now, he will definitely need to compromise with the Five Holy Family.

Once he compromises, he will continue to compromise in the face of other forces in the future.

This is not in line with Shangguan Qiuyu's character, let alone his style.

Therefore, he hasn't made up his mind about the next step, and he doesn't know how to tell the old man.

For the time being, we can only respond in silence.
