Chapter 232 The Conspiracy of the Machi Khanate
On May 4, the secret fire icing letter from Deng Xian, who was far away in the capital, was also spread to Qin Mu in an expedited manner. At this time, even the official express post of the court had not arrived. After learning that he was appointed as the military and political governor of the Northwest County, Qin Mu could no longer suppress his ecstasy. After three years of hard work, he finally got what he wanted.
Qin Mu happily walked around the garden of the county magistrate's mansion for several consecutive times, and Qin Mu gradually calmed down from his extreme excitement.
Since the court appointed itself as the military and political governor of the Northwest, it also wanted to quickly quell the rebellion of Meishan and Longdong counties, so that it could become a true military and political governor.
This time, the Crown Prince Zhao Yan stood up so fearlessly to win this position for him, and he must have his own plans. If he comes to Tokugawa to announce the appointment and order of His Majesty the Emperor, he must touch his bottom carefully.
Qin Mu stood quietly in the depths of the path in the garden, analyzing all aspects of problems that he had not thought of because of his overexcitement.
Zhao Yan finally revealed his true face during this court discussion, which will definitely attract the attention of many forces, and will inevitably arouse the hostility of several other forces.
Zhao Yan's gift is indeed quite heavy. Although Qin Mu doesn't know what his ultimate goal is, at least he has won Qin Mu's favor at present, the premise is that it cannot affect my interests. In political struggles, no personal feelings cannot be mixed with, and everything must be subject to the needs of interests.
Since it has been decided to quell the rebellion in Meishan and the two counties of Longdong, we have to prepare early, especially the deployment of the troops needs to be carried out immediately, otherwise the fighter planes will change three times a day, and it will be troublesome if it is delayed. Thinking of this, Qin Mu calmed down and then returned to the study.
Just as Qin Mu was fully preparing to pacify the northwest, some changes were also quietly taking place in the south of the empire.
The Secret Conference Hall of the Great Khan Palace in Sanglin City, the capital of the Maki Khanate, is a very secretive small conference room. It is elegantly decorated but cannot accommodate many people. It is used by the Great Khan Bixi to hold extremely important small conferences. There are only a few people in the conference room, but the atmosphere is very serious. It is obvious that a secret issue is being carried out.
"Jetian, how are you preparing for?" Bi Xili, who was sitting on the head, looked very serious.
"It is generally ready, the secret mobilization of the army has been completed, and the logistics supplies have been prepared after many efforts, just waiting for the Khan to give the order." Lei Juetian, dressed in black, looked much thinner.
Bi Xili nodded with satisfaction and looked at Tulu, the intelligence minister on the left side, "Turu, how are you preparing for this?"
"Don't worry, Khan, you have followed your instructions. Our intelligence personnel are monitoring the enemy troops in the border areas day and night, and a large number of people have penetrated into the enemy's backbone, and the enemy's army has not been mobilized in any abnormality." Tulu replied respectfully.
Bi Xili Xueliang's eyes turned to the two generals in military uniforms, who were also highly prestigious generals of the Maqi Khanate. The middle-aged man in his forties was Yaning, the general of Zhenguo, and the general of Dingguo, Butiancheng, in his early thirties.
"Two generals, here's a fight for the victory and defeat. I hope you can succeed. I will prepare a celebration banquet for you in the palace. Then we will have a drunken time to stop." Although Bi Xili said very politely, his tone was full of confidence in winning.
Ya Ning and Putiancheng stood up with a "swish" sound and bowed, "Don't worry, if you can't win this battle, you will never return to the court."
Lei Juetian also continued Bi Xili's words, "In this battle, we take a sudden attack method, do not stay all the way, and go straight to the destination, and occupy the city is victory. This year, the entire Eastern Continent has suffered drought, and the enemy will never expect that we will launch an attack in the event of a severe drought. Surprisingly, there should be no problem.
Lei Juetian turned his gaze to the general next to him who had not spoken: "It's because General Mingzhong has a heavy task. Our military operation will definitely attract the attention of the Qin Empire. Although our relationship with them has improved a lot, they are still very wary of us. It is clear that no one or another soldier has been drawn from their southern military region so far. I am not sure what kind of reaction they will make. As for Milan and other forces, I think they don't have the courage yet, but they can't relax their vigilance, so the most pressure should be General Mingzhong."
The general next to Lei Juetian is General Anguo Mingzhong. He and the two generals just now claim to be the "three horses" of Maqihan's team.
"Don't worry, Da Khan and Lord Lei, I will be careful and dare not slackew."
Ming Chong's voice was a little low, but it was quite powerful. It was obvious that Lei Juetian's prestige had been fully recognized among the Maqi Khans. Indeed, over the past ten years of Lei Jue Tian's rule, the Maqi Khanate had undergone earth-shaking changes, the national strength was thriving, and the strength of the army was greatly strengthened. This forced the military officials who had some opinions on the identity of Lei Jue Tian's aliens to lower their proud heads.
After arranging the deployment and everyone left, Bi Xili stayed Lei Juetian.
"Juetian, do you think our military operation is a bit hasty?"
Bi Xili's face no longer had the confidence he had just now, and instead he felt a little worried. After all, such a large-scale military operation, the reaction of the surrounding neighbors, especially the Qin Empire, will have a significant impact on the Machi Khanate. This is a major event that is at stake in the fate of the country.
Lei Juetian gently stroked a long beard under his jaw and replied calmly: "Don't worry, Dahan, I am very sure that the Qin Empire will not take other extreme actions to interfere with our actions. At most, verbally warn us or send diplomatic missions to mediate. As long as we act quickly, the situation is complete by then, and they have no choice."
"Oh? Then I'll feel relieved."
Bi Xili felt relieved when he heard Lei Juetian's affirmative answer. He was absolutely relieved of his confidant, but this time it was a major issue, so he couldn't help but remind him.
"Khan, a large-scale rebellion occurred in the northwest of the Qin Empire some time ago, and it has now affected the Central Plains. They are now in a state of great trouble. Moreover, our relationship is good. In addition, the target of our actions is a small southwest country that has no direct interest relationship with them. I judge that the Qin people who have not suffered from the pain will never act hastily." Lei Juetian analyzed in an orderly manner.
"But we can wait a little longer and wait until the time is the most ripe before taking action." Bi Xili was still a little puzzled why Lei Juetian chose to act at this time.
"We can't wait any longer. This year, we have encountered a severe drought, and all countries are in great difficulty. Although we are also in trouble, the accumulation in the past few years has been enough to cope with this battle. At this time, it will just make the enemy unprepared and greatly reduce our resistance and losses."
"The jurisdiction of Ankun City is not large, but there are abundant copper mines in the territory, which is very useful to us. The Kingdom of Jemelo is flat and produces a lot of food, and the terrain is also suitable for our cavalry attack. The most important thing is that the people in power in these two targets are all short-sighted people, the people are in distress, and their relationship with their neighboring countries is also average. The world is so great that only those who are virtuous live there. Since God gave us two pieces of fat meat in the Machikhanate, why should we push three to four?" Lei Juetian and Bi Xili both showed understanding smiles.
"However, the Khan must remind General Ya Ning and General Pu Tiancheng again that he must not indulge military discipline. This is a top priority and must not be neglected. These two places will be the territory of our Maqi Khanate in the future. Good military discipline will be of great benefit to conquering the hearts of the local people." Speaking of this, Lei Juetian's face became solemn.
"Jetian, don't worry, Ya Ning and Tiancheng are not people who don't know the importance of severance. If you just want to plunder, of course you can relax in this regard. But the purpose of this operation is to expand the territory of our Machi Khanate. I have warned them repeatedly that if anyone dares to violate military discipline, they can be killed on the spot, no matter what position he holds." Bi Xili obviously attaches great importance to this matter.
"In addition, the Khan can send a diplomatic mission to visit the Qin Empire. The main task is to explain to the Qin court the reasons for our military operations, of course, they are provoking first. At the same time, they hope to strengthen friendly exchanges between the people of the two countries, especially the economic exchanges, and also visit those big merchants who are close to our country's economic and trade exchanges and ask them to help us do our work. The abilities of these people should not be underestimated."
"Very good, Jue Tian, your proposal is very important. It must be deployed immediately, so that our plan will be perfect!" Bi Xili was very satisfied with Lei Jue Tian's final opinion and couldn't help but pat Lei Jue Tian on the shoulder.
But Lei Juetian, who was praised, was not very happy. Bi Xili then realized that his confidant, who was always confident, always had a trace of lingering worry on his face today.
"What's wrong, Jue Tian? Are you too tired and uncomfortable? Otherwise, you can go back and rest early." Bi Xili was very concerned about his powerful arm.
Lei Juetian shook his head silently and paused again, "Shan, you have read this information too."
