"Yes, Your Majesty, that's exactly what we think." A civil servant said with a smile.

Zhao Kuangyin was also very happy when he heard this sentence.

"Okay, since everyone agrees with my plan, then this plan will be implemented like this." Zhao Kuangyin said happily.

"Your Majesty is wise!" the ministers shouted in unison when they heard Zhao Kuangyin's words, and then retreated one after another.

After they retreated, Zhao Kuangyin looked at the generals and asked, "My lords, have you noticed that Qin's armies seem to have weakened in the past few years? Why?"

"Report Your Majesty, Qin's army has indeed weakened a lot. During this period of time, their army has been completely lost. Moreover, their rule in the Central Plains has become more and more lax. It seems that they are afraid to send troops to attack us. " A general stood up and said, this general is the minister who just proposed to form an alliance with Zhao Kuangyin.

Zhao Kuangyin heard the minister's words, thought for a while, and said, "Then, why do you think they did this? Why did they change their strategy? I think it's more than that."

After hearing Zhao Kuangyin's words, the minister shook his head and said, "I don't know, but your majesty, no matter what Qin is doing for us, we can't take it lightly. We should send more spies to see if Qin is doing something bad behind his back! "

Chapter 374 Song State Layout

"Well, I understand, you go down first." Zhao Kuangyin nodded.

After the general left, another civil servant stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this old man thinks that Qin State is testing us. We are allies with them. If we can't help to contain Qin State, they may be against you." Let's do it!"

"Well, you are right. Is Qin Guo really ready to make a move now?" Zhao Kuangyin nodded and said.

"According to reports from our people, the recent Qin State seems to have mobilized a large number of soldiers to go east, and I don't know what to do." Another general said.

After Zhao Kuangyin heard his words, he fell silent. The actions of Qin Guo really made people unable to understand the situation.Zhao Kuangyin thought carefully.

After a while, Zhao Kuangyin sighed and said: "Oh, these years, we have neglected the state of Qin, and this state of Qin can be evenly divided with our state of Song. In this case, if we want to deal with the state of Yuan, we may not It's easy!" Zhao Kuangyin looked at the others and said.

"Your Majesty, do you want us to take advantage of Qin's army to leave and attack Yuan directly?" said the minister next to him.

"No, if we attack the Yuan Kingdom now, then the Qin Kingdom will definitely invade in an all-round way, and then our Song Kingdom will be in a hard fight!" Those civil officials hurriedly stopped.

"Your Majesty, our situation is more complicated now, and we must consider it carefully." Other ministers also advised Zhao Kuangyin one after another.

Zhao Kuangyin saw that the ministers comforted him so much, so he gave up the idea of ​​sending troops to conquer the Yuan Kingdom immediately, because he also wanted to recuperate and could not waste his energy on the struggle with Qin.

"You Aiqings have worked hard, you all go down!" Zhao Kuangyin said.

"Yes." Those ministers all retreated.

And Zhao Kuangyin also sat down, and then said: "It seems that we don't have much time. We still have about half a year. Half a year later, when our Song Kingdom and Yuan Kingdom confront each other, this time I will personally lead the army to attack , Annihilated Yuan State in one fell swoop, otherwise, Qin State may launch a war at that time.

I have decided that from now on, I will not deal with government affairs, and I will be responsible for military training and ordnance research.At the same time, I also want to learn the art of war. "

"Your Majesty is wise." After the ministers finished speaking, they all dispersed.When Zhao Kuangyin was in disbandment, he summoned his staff and began to discuss how to train his army.

"My lords, I am going to form a new army now. This army is called the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. It is a well-equipped and well-trained army. I hope that this army can become the trump card army of our Song Dynasty." , and at the same time be able to defend our imperial city. Do you have any good suggestions?" Zhao Kuangyin began to ask about the establishment of this army.

Those staffers thought for a while, and then one of them said: "Your Majesty, I think that if you want to build a tiger and leopard cavalry, you must first recruit those generals who are good at using guns, so that they can train quickly. People who are good at using bows and arrows, these people have very strict requirements for archery. After all, in this war, the opponent has more than 1 cavalry. These infantry simply cannot withstand the impact of cavalry. Therefore, we need to recruit cavalry. And We also need to select those generals who are burly and good at using double knives."

"Well, then tell me, what should I do?" Zhao Kuangyin nodded and said.

"We believe that we can now find those brave people, give them a sum of money, or give them a title, let them join us, and then we will have enough cavalry to attack the enemy country." The staff continued to suggest .

"Okay, I'll do as you said." Zhao Kuangyin heard his suggestion, thought about it, and thought it was feasible, so he agreed directly. He thought this method was very good.

After Zhao Kuangyin finished talking about this matter, the counselors all agreed, and this matter was finalized.

"Your Majesty, do we need to strengthen our domestic defense measures now? Although we are united with those princes now, I am worried that if we are not friendly to those big clans, those big clans may turn against us by then. At that time, those princes may take the opportunity to occupy our Song State." One of the ministers said to Zhao Kuangyin.

"I also know this, so I have to think of some solutions now!" Zhao Kuangyin said with a frown, then sat down to think for a while, and then said: "Since we want to win, we can't follow the previous approach." Now that the strategic policy has been implemented, we must find a way to make those princes and us one mind!" Zhao Kuangyin asked the general.

"Your Majesty, I believe that it is not a good time to take the initiative to attack now. If we want to use troops against Yuan, we need to consider whether Song can take Yuan this winter.

If we can't take it down, then even if we destroy the Qin country, in summer, the food of the Qin country must be enough for us and the Yuan country to consume. If we attack the Yuan country in summer, then we are likely to be killed by the Yuan country If the country is dragged down, then the people of our Song country will be in danger.

What's more, if we attack Yuan State in the summer, then Qin State will take advantage of the situation to attack our Song State, and our Song State may not be stable by then!Therefore, we should first address the threat in northern Xinjiang now.

Your Majesty, those people in the Yuan Kingdom are also ready to move. If the northern border is not controlled in time, then the Yuan Kingdom will attack at any time.So I suggest that we should send scouts to monitor the situation in northern Xinjiang earlier. If there is any movement from the Yuan Kingdom, we can take precautions in advance. " said another counselor.

"Well, okay, I'll leave this matter to you!" After Zhao Kuangyin heard his words, he also looked at him with admiration. He was the one who proposed this plan.

Moreover, Zhao Kuangyin also believed that his strategy must be good, otherwise, that person would not dare to bring it up, so he directly ordered him to do this matter.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!" The man immediately knelt down and thanked him.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now, should we continue to advance to the south or hold off?" asked another aide.

"There is no need to stop. The Qin State is also resting now. They have to deal with the Yuan State. It is estimated that there will not be many elite troops in a short time. This time, the granary of the Yuan State has been burned. They want to restore the food and grass. It will take at least 3 months for the delivery. Now we can just use this time to recuperate.

Chapter 375 Japanese pirates attack

In the state of Qin, the envoy sent by Ying Ziqi to the state of Song is returning.

"Prime Minister Qi, the envoy of the Song Kingdom has come to report that he is willing to form an alliance with us to fight against the Yuan Kingdom."

When Ying Ziqi heard the news, he smiled and said, "Hehe, there's really nowhere to find it."

At this time, someone suddenly came to report that Japanese pirates appeared on the southeast coast!

This news made Ying Ziqi very surprised. You must know that there are many Japanese pirates, and they are all extremely vicious. Their fleets often rob the passing merchants.

"What? You said Japanese pirates just now? Are you sure?" Ying Ziqi asked in surprise.

"Your Majesty, it's absolutely true. According to the news I received, there was a big ship coming from the south, and it went directly into the southern waters without encountering any obstacles along the way. My suspicion is that it is a fleet of Japanese pirates. "The soldier said respectfully.

Hearing the news, Ying Ziqi frowned, then thought for a while and said, "Send General Bai Qi to investigate the Japanese pirates immediately!"

"Observe the order!" The soldier retreated in response.

"Your Majesty, should we send someone to investigate now? If it is true that the big ship is a Japanese pirate, then we must send troops as soon as possible. Otherwise, when those Japanese pirates cross the Yellow River, I am afraid they will not be so easy to deal with! "The minister said to Ying Ziqi.

"Well, okay, I'm going to send Bai Qi to go after the Japanese pirates, and we must wipe them all out!" Ying Ziqi nodded, and then he called Bai Qi in front of him.

"General Bai Qi, you are now leading an elite army of [-] to attack Nanyang County from the west, and then attack Nanyang County from the east. You must drive those Japanese pirates away as soon as possible!" Ying Ziqi ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After hearing his order, Bai Qi left directly, and then took his army to Nanyang County.

After Bai Qi left, Ying Ziqi's face also became very ugly.

He didn't expect that this pirate would dare to appear at this time.

"Damn it! These bastards, don't they know that we are now fighting against the Yuan Kingdom? These bastards dare to make trouble at this juncture. Could it be that life is boring?" Ying Ziqi patted the table angrily and said .

He didn't expect the Japanese pirates to be so courageous that they dared to sneak attack them, and they succeeded in sneak attack.

Bai Qi led the army to Nanyang County, and while moving forward, mobilized the army to deal with the big Japanese pirate ship, and at this time.Qin's grain and grass reserves were insufficient, so they could only hoard grain and grass in the south, and at the same time send troops to station in the south to prevent Japanese pirates from raiding.

"Pass down the order, all soldiers, be on alert!" An adjutant shouted to the soldiers beside him.

"Obey!" The soldier immediately went to give the order.

Bai Qi led an army of [-] to Nanyang County. On the way, he encountered several waves of Japanese pirates.However, the army led by Bai Qi was also very powerful, and he easily eliminated those groups of Japanese pirates.

In this desolate land, apart from the endless plains, there is no place to hide, so in such a land, Bai Qi's troops are also showing off their might, and they are all very arrogant.

Along the way, they encountered more and more Japanese pirates. However, Bai Qi's troops were very strong, and ordinary Japanese pirates had no chance of winning at all.

After one and a half months, Bai Qi's troops finally arrived in Nanyang County.

Nanyang County is located on the coast of the East China Sea. This city is a huge port. The business here is very prosperous and rich.

After Bai Qi's troops entered Nanyang County, they did not immediately attack the city of Nanyang County. Instead, they were stationed in a village first, and they were preparing to rest before sending troops south.

The village they chose was not far from Nanyang County, so they could easily enter Nanyang County.

In Bai Qi's big camp, Bai Qi is reviewing a letter in the big tent.

"General Qizuo, just now a spy came to report that a group of Japanese pirates entered Nanyang County from the west!" A guard came in and reported.

"Oh?" Bai Qi raised his head and glanced at him, then said, "Go and inform the other generals, let them discuss this matter too!"

"Here!"

After an incense stick of time, the other three deputy commanders arrived.

"General Qi, just got the news that a group of Japanese pirates entered our Nanyang County from the west. Their fleet has about [-] or [-] ships. Our fleet can't stop it at all. I have already sent someone to report. !" A lieutenant said to Bai Qi.

Bai Qiqi nodded, then looked at these people, and said: "Everyone, this matter is no small matter, we must handle it properly, and we must catch those pirates, otherwise, there will be endless troubles!"

He is very upset now, because he didn't expect this gang of Japanese pirates to be so bold that they dared to come to his territory to make trouble. This is courting death!

"Don't worry, general, we will do our best!" Other generals expressed their willingness to help.

"Well, since that's the case, I'll trouble you generals!"

"This subordinate is determined to fulfill his mission, and must take down these Japanese pirates!" The deputy general assured Bai Qi loudly.

"Well, I hope everyone can wipe out that group of Japanese pirates in one fell swoop!" Bai Qiqi nodded and said.

"Don't worry, general, you will fulfill your mission!" These lieutenants clasped their fists together and said.

They are all very clear that the Japanese pirates are coming aggressively this time, and they are definitely not simple Japanese pirates.

Bai Qi's troops set up checkpoints in some places in Nanyang County, and these checkpoints were specially used to guard against Japanese pirates.

Their goal is to wipe out the main force of the Japanese pirates, and then take back Nanyang County City in one go!

Bai Qi's troops set up an important checkpoint near Nanyang County City, which is called 'Nanjing Pass'.There are more than [-] defenders of Nanjing Pass. This army is led by four generals. They are the total force of the four armies. Their duty is to suppress the Japanese pirates around Nanyang County. At the same time, they can also cooperate with the Qin army. Attack the southern part of Nanyang County.

For this operation, Bai Qi specially arranged more than 2000 archers to guard against the cavalry in Nanyang County.

This cavalry was drawn by Bai Qi from the imperial guards of the Qin State. They are well-trained and very powerful in combat. It can be said that they are the most elite cavalry of the Qin Army.

Outside Nanjing Pass, there are [-] cavalry patrolling vigilantly. They are all carefully selected and trained very strictly.

These cavalrymen wore black armor and carried steel knives. They were tall and exuded a fierce temperament.

Chapter 376

Bai Qi's cavalry team stood quietly outside Nanjing Pass, waiting for the enemy to appear.

At this moment, suddenly a group of people came galloping from the south.

There are about two to three thousand people in this team. This is a Japanese cavalry team, and these cavalry are extremely well equipped.

They carried artillery behind them, and these artillery were very huge, looking like tanks.

"These people are Japanese pirates. Judging by their equipment, it must be a large army!" A general in Bai Qi's army said to Bai Qi.

"Hmph, it seems that those Japanese pirates really didn't take our Great Qin Empire seriously. They dared to send an army directly into Nanyang County. They really wanted to die!" Bai Qi said with a sneer.

"General, if this is the case, then teach them a lesson and let them know that our Qin army is not a vegetarian!" said another lieutenant general.

Bai Qi looked at these cavalrymen.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

"Order, all soldiers are ready to fight, wait for my order to act!"

Bai Qi said in a cold voice.

After his words fell, his cavalry quickly assembled.

These cavalry gathered behind Bai Qi in an instant.

"Attack!"

Bai Qi let out a low shout, and his cavalry rushed towards the Japanese pirate cavalry who rushed forward.

The two sides collided quickly.

The Japanese pirate cavalry has very strong fighting power, and their tactics are very flexible. They ride some very short mounts, and their riding skills are also very skilled. That's why they dared to be so bold and directly killed them in front of the Baiqi barracks .

These pirate cavalry are well-equipped, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of ordinary infantry.Wielding scimitars and steel spears on horseback, they frantically rushed towards Baiqi's barracks.

Some of Bai Qi's subordinates panicked when they saw them rushing over. They jumped out of the trenches one after another, trying to stop the Japanese cavalry, but the combat effectiveness of these people was obviously not as good as the opponent's.

Soon, many of these white soldiers were beheaded.

Seeing this scene, Bai Qi's face darkened.

He roared, then brandished his spear, and went up to the charging cavalry.

Seeing that the charging Bai Qi army was not afraid of themselves, these pirate cavalry were stunned for a moment, and then smiled mockingly.

"Haha, the general of the Great Qin Empire is really stupid. Doesn't he know the fighting power of our pirate cavalry? He even dared to charge up, haha, what a bunch of reckless creatures!" A leader of the pirates saw Bai Qi charging towards him , he immediately laughed.

In his opinion, it is impossible for Bai Qi to be his opponent. After all, their Japanese pirates are very well equipped and their combat effectiveness is still very strong.

"Brothers, kill me, you must give them some color and let them know that we pirates are not easy to mess with!" The leader of the pirates shouted.
