Chapter 1009 Dragon City
Chapter 1007: Dragon City
Under Wang Mang's hard persuasion, Wang Shichong finally agreed to send troops to Hedong, but only after the Yuanmeng cavalry went south and the Jin army had no time to take care of him, and sent troops together with the three southern princes, otherwise the Shangdang alone would not win at all. Opportunity.
Wang Mang, who had the support of Wang Shichong, also began to implement his own plan. The first was to persuade Temujin to go south, and this was also the core of all Wang Mang's plans. After all, if Yuan and Meng did not contain the Jin army, all subsequent assumptions would not be true.
Only when Yuan and Meng send troops to prevent the Jin army from looking south can the other three princes in the south see hope and cooperate with the Shangdang to send troops to seize Sizhou and quickly expand their troops to protect themselves.
To be honest, Wang Mang does not want to borrow the power of foreign races. After all, no matter how he fights, this is a civil war in China, and he is an extreme racist, rejecting and even hating all foreign races except China.
However, Qin Hao's pressure on Wang Mang was too great, and the gap in strength between the two sides was too great. It could no longer be reversed by strategy.
Without the help of foreign forces, Wang Mang could not even see the slightest hope. But even if he relied on the help of foreign forces to contain the Jin army, he would still lose more than he won in this battle.
Although Wang Mang deceived Wang Shichong and said that the winning rate was 70%, he knew the actual situation best. Even if all the previous prerequisites were completed, there was only less than 50% chance of winning.
The war competition is nothing more than the training of soldiers, the sophisticated equipment, and the level of generals, but our side is obviously inferior to Qin Hao in these three points.
Let’s not mention soldiers and equipment for now, let’s just talk about the general.
On Qin Hao's side, among the top ten fierce generals on the general list, there are four: Li Cunxiao, Ran Min, Jiang Song, and Jia Fu.
In addition, there are also famous generals such as Zhao Yun, Pei Yuanqing, Xiong Kuohai, etc. accompanying him.
As for famous marshals, there are Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang, Qin Qiong and others.
In addition, Wang Mang also seriously doubted that 'Bai Qi' was actually the legendary killing **** and human massacrer 'Bai Qi'.
This lineup can be called luxurious, with absolutely no weaknesses.
Looking at himself, Wang Mang couldn't bear to look at him. There were still a few powerful generals who could take action, but none of the famous marshals.
As for Wang Mang himself, he also knew very well how many pounds he had. It was okay to deal with ordinary generals, but against famous generals like Bai Qi, he had no chance of winning.
“I want to use bronze to match Qin Hao’s divine outfit.”
Wang Mang felt extremely bitter in his heart. Of course he knew that the risk of this battle was extremely high, but if he missed this opportunity, it would only be a matter of time before the Shangdang was destroyed, and Wang Mang would not have any chance to enter the game.
At that time, there was only one last way left before Wang Mang: to give up his ambition and choose a wise master to assist him. But this is something Wang Mang cannot accept no matter what.
So, even if he faced Qin Hao, the strongest boss in the world, Wang Mang still chose to fight to the death.
Victory, join the ranks of contending for world supremacy;
And once he lost...Wang Mang never thought about it.
“There is a chance, Qin Hao is not invulnerable, he still has a chance!”
Wang Mang saw his only chance, and left Shangdang with determination. Under the protection of Ju Guuba and other generals, he went to the grassland to lobby Emperor Temujin of Yuan and Meng. Before leaving, Wang Mang took a deep look in the direction of Luoyang and said coldly to himself: "Qin Hao, the next step is the fight between the two time travelers."
The two countries, Yuanmeng and Manchu, completely copied the Han Dynasty and carried out in-depth reforms, and their development in these years can be said to be one step at a time. Their national power has been rising like a rocket, which has seriously threatened the safety of the entire northern Xinjiang. .
Yuan and Meng annexed most of Xianbei, and their overall strength after digestion was even higher than that of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. The two also restricted each other, thus maintaining an abnormal balance.
After Wang Mang stepped into Longcheng, he couldn't believe that this was a grassland. Everything here impacted his outlook on life.
What about the blue sky, white clouds, the wind blowing on the grass, and the sight of cattle and sheep? There is nothing here that should be available on this grassland.
Instead, there are endless majestic cities, endless streams of people, and all kinds of novel things.
In short, Dragon City has most of the things that are available in the Central Plains, and there are also things that are not found in the Central Plains.
According to Wang Mang's observation, the prosperity of Dragon City is no less than that of the second-tier cities in the Central Plains. First-tier cities such as Xiangyang, Yecheng, and Chengdu can definitely beat Dragon City.
As for Luoyang and Chang'an, the two super first-tier capital-level cities, they are naturally not comparable to the emerging city of Longcheng. If you want to catch up, it will be impossible without development for decades.
“In just five years, Temujin built such a big city on the grassland. It is worthy of Genghis Khan, it is amazing.”
Wang Mang sincerely praised Temujin for kicking him. Wang Mang was extremely impressed by the opponent's miraculous method of turning decay into something magical.
The strength of the Yuan-Meng Empire is beyond Wang Mang's expectation. At present, only Dong Zhuo at his peak and the Qin, Jin and Liang armies can rival the current Yuan-Meng Empire. None of the other princes can fight alone. Can be Yuan Meng's opponent.
Yuanmeng alone was already so strong, but how strong was the Manchu Qing, which was slightly inferior to Yuanmeng?
With this thought, Wang Mang couldn't help but fall into deep worry, and sighed: "Fortunately, two talented people, Temujin and Nurhaci, appeared in the grassland at the same time, otherwise it would have been a huge disaster for the entire China."
In fact, Wang Mang also knew that the reason why Yuanmeng was so strong was definitely due to the contributions of many traitors.
The Jin army and Yuan and Meng were mortal enemies, so strategic materials such as iron and ore were strictly prohibited from being sold to Yuan and Meng.
Even if the Jin army occupied the Hetao area, it was impossible to blockade the entire grassland. After all, the grassland was so large that as long as there was one area that could not be monitored, it would provide Yuan and Meng with trading opportunities.
If Yuan and Meng want to develop and grow, they cannot do without those strategic materials. If the Jin army does not sell them, they will buy them from other princes and some aristocratic families at high prices. Anyway, there will always be a shortage of traitors among the Han people.
Benefits are attractive to people. Under the temptation of huge interests, no matter how the Jin army blocks the border, even if the ban is clearly written into the law, there will still be a lot of people taking risks and continuously transporting a lot of material resources to the grassland.
And many princes in the three states of Jiyou have done this. They forgot the hatred between the nations and only had their own interests in mind.
Among the aristocratic families, the most ruthless in transporting supplies were the legendary Eight Shanxi Merchants, several of which were even under Qin Wen's rule.
