Chapter 226 Defense Strategy
Jing Hongdao's worry and illness also made Su Zhao look at this conservative teacher with admiration and deep admiration for protecting himself.
No matter what, at least for the state affairs of Su State, this teacher also responded with a word of diligence and loyalty.
Of course, Jing Hongdao's political thinking can no longer keep up with his pace. As he said, if you don't get out of love, it will be detrimental to the country.
On the second day, Su Guo Dazai Jing Hongdao handed in the memorandum and resigned, which immediately calmed down Su Guo Gongqing who was immersed in the joy of the victory, thinking that something would happen again.
Of course, Su Zhao didn't rush to agree at the first moment, but instead drafted a beautifully written essay to persuade him to stay, which was considered as a way to give the old minister enough face.
On the morning of the third day, Jing Hongdao resigned again. Su Zhao was silent this time, but his tone was a little looser. He asked the imperial physician from the Imperial Physician Office to go to Jing's Mansion for diagnosis and treatment, and gave him valuable medicinal materials as a token of honor.
At this moment, Zhongyuan Hall
Temporarily pacifying the matter of Jing Hongdao's retirement, there was still one thing discussed in the early court, that is, the matter of rewarding the meritorious ministers of the Su Zheng Guo War, especially the front-line generals.
Of course, it is impossible to confer meritorious officials, kings and dukes.
Not to mention that Su Zhao is only a marquis, and now he has only won a county and a half. Zheng Guo will make a comeback at any time, and it is not the time for a big reward.
However, silk, gold, silver and other goods are given to meritorious soldiers, and these will not be less, and there are also martial arts great elixir, and martial arts skills are distributed.
After discussing the completed matters, Su Zhao said in a clear voice, "How are you preparing for the imperial examination?"
Hearing and inquiring, Master Situ Liang came out at this moment with his arms folded, and said loudly: "Return to your lord, scholars from all counties have gathered in Wenyi, and are eagerly waiting for the opening of the department to recruit scholars."
Su Zhao glanced at Liang Shigu, and said: "The imperial examination is related to the country's talent reserve, so we must be as careful as the beginning, and not be ignored."
Liang Shigu bowed his hands and said yes.
Su Zhao said, "Yan Qing?"
"The minister is here." Yan Chang jumped out of the class and cupped his hands.
"You will be the chief examiner of the imperial examination." Su Zhao said, "What are the questions in the paper? You can discuss with Gu from time to time."
Any innovation must reserve talents for the innovation. With Yan Chang as the chief examiner, as long as this scientific examination is successfully held, and then he is used to promote the merits of Qingzhang Tianmu and worship him as the chief executive, it will be successful.
Yan Chang took orders and retreated.
After disposing of all the backlog of government affairs, Su Zhao left Feng Kuang, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, to discuss matters in the side hall.
"Feng Qing, what's the situation in Weiguo?" Su Zhao asked straightforwardly.
Because during this period of time, after the detectives sent by the Tianting Division to Weiguo reported the information to Wenyi, under Su Zhao's instruction, all the information to Weiguo was sent to the Privy Council Office for Feng Kuang to sort out and analyze.
Feng Kuang said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Wei was hit by heavy rain a few days ago. Because it is located in the upper reaches of the Hong River, there are not many counties and counties affected by the disaster. The country of Wei did not have any major turmoil due to the proper relief. Jun Xin puts a lot of effort into treachery and sycophants, leaving all political affairs in the hands of Shang Qing Sun Huan and Ning Zun, and wholeheartedly seeks out the art of longevity, and some time ago, he was widely drafting girls in the middle of the country, which caused complaints."
Su Zhaodao: "I don't know about this matter, but these are not enough to shake Wei Jun's position."
This generation of Weijun was the first to usurp the throne by means of a coup d'état. He was good at using power and tactics. He has a dark, suspicious, narrow-minded and intolerant personality.
Feng Kuangdao: "The military strength of the state of Wei, the elite forbidden army is about [-], [-] are stationed in the Weidu Diqiu, and the remaining [-] are divided into four border counties, mainly to prevent the invasion of the Jin State, and [-] of them are stationed in Hezhong County. .”
As a big country with [-] counties, it is normal to have [-] elite armored soldiers on standby when there is no war.
But Su Zhao knew that this was only a superficial phenomenon. Once the national war broke out between Su and Wei, Wei would be able to quickly organize a huge army like Su.
Maybe, this number will double up.
Su Zhaodao: "If you want to preemptively attack the enemy and keep the enemy out of the country, Feng Qing thinks that with our country's military strength, can we try to defend the country's land?"
Thinking appeared on Feng Kuang's face, and he murmured: "Your Majesty, there are fifteen counties in Weiguo, and across the river from Linyang is Li County, the governor of Li County, Hualiang. Just deal with him more, this person is brave and resourceful, he is not easy to deal with."
Su Zhao frowned and said, "How many guards are stationed in Li County?"
"Three thousand forbidden soldiers, four thousand county soldiers." Feng Kuang replied.
"It's really very guarded." Su Zhaoning said.
Feng Kuang suddenly changed his face and said: "Your Majesty, I dare to speak out."
"Feng Qing said nothing wrong." Su Zhao said.
"With the national strength of our country, we may not be able to wipe out the guards in one fell swoop. Even if the king has the capital of the sky, and leads a strong army to plan to attack Li County, it will also attract all the kingdoms of Yuzhou to attack." Feng Kuang said.
To put it bluntly, the national power of the Wei state is still not enough to support Su state's wanton expansion. This is different from the war between Zheng states. Rejecting Zheng and seizing its territory is not a war of destroying a country after all.
In the face of a war of annihilation, no matter how small a country is, it will have unimaginable war potential, and there is another problem that cannot be ignored-international interference.
For example, in the battle of Zheng's destruction of Su ten years ago, Zheng Guo overwhelmed the country with a thunderous force, and swallowed Su Guo in one fell swoop, but what happened?
The two countries of Lu and Wei sent troops to help, and Su finally survived the danger of extinction.
A long time ago, when Zheng Guo destroyed Chen, it was against the interference of other countries. Even Zhou Tianzi, who was the mascot in Luodu, sent envoys to reprimand him.
Under pressure, Zheng Guo still left Chen Guo with a place of worship in the ancestral temple with a radius of fifty miles.
In the same way, if the State of Su wants to destroy the guards, it must be prepared to send troops to intervene against the two countries of Qi and Lu.
"Is it possible to take away the land of one county and two counties?" Su Zhao thought for a moment and asked unwillingly.
Going down to one and a half counties of Zheng Guo has already given him some sweetness.
Feng Kuangdao: "Li County is the gateway to the Kingdom of Wei. Once it falls into our hands, the Kingdom of Wei will have trouble sleeping and eating, and the war will inevitably escalate."
Su Zhao said indifferently: "Yingyin is also the key to the north of Zheng State, and it's not in Gu Zhi's hands yet."
"Your Majesty, there is still Yangping Pass to the south of Yingyin, and there is a flat river to the north of Li County, and it is across the river from Linyang County, which is not a place for military use." Feng Kuang said.
The meaning is that even if Li County is taken down, it will not be able to defend, because there is no danger to defend, no rear to rely on, and the army of Weiguo will come back, and there is a danger of escalating the war.
Su Zhao's complexion fluctuated when he heard the words. It has to be said that Feng Kuangzhi's words are perfect.
In the final analysis, it is still a word, Su Guo is too weak.
Even if one and a half of the territory of Zheng State was seized, the Su State at this moment is only a land of eight counties, and the fruits of victory have not yet been digested. In a hurry, it is impossible to start a war of annihilating and defending the country.
In particular, under the premise of armed intervention by various countries, the export of anti-towers is a step back.
"Forging iron has to be hard on your own." Su Zhao had no choice but to put away some turbulent emotions at this moment, and even began to reflect on himself.
Did the victory of a battle between Su and Zheng make him feel elated?
"The only plan for now is to reform. Su has a population of 900 million. Once the reform is successful, 20 troops will go north and sweep the caves." Su Zhao's eyes flickered, thinking.
"If Wei Guo is persuaded by Zheng Guo to lead an army to attack me, what should he do?" Su Zhao asked.
Thinking that he could only defend passively and not take the initiative to attack, he was somewhat aggrieved.
Feng Kuangdao: "Your Majesty, you can refuse his strong troops and let the State of Lu mediate."
Su Zhao was silent for a moment, then sighed: "We will discuss this matter later."
He still tends to go outside Yuguomen, and the defensive counterattack is too aggrieved.
Feng Kuang saw the unwillingness of the young prince, and for a while, he was thinking hard, trying to come up with a perfect plan.
But this kind of strategy of conquest of a country was originally planned by the kind of Zhu country with great talent. Although Feng Kuang has been in the border county for a long time, his talent is still not up to that level.
After seeing off Feng Kuang, Su Zhao pondered for a moment, then said to Peng Ji in a deep voice, "Prepare the car, I have to go out of the palace alone."
But he suddenly thought of a person, Shentu Fan, why not ask him about this matter.
Now that he has defeated Zheng Guo, it looks like he is doing something, this Zhu Guo's talent should change his mind.
