The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 674 Ready to go to war?
“Jade must be under the control of the imperial court, and at the same time, it can be given to several major families.

We are selecting some new forces that are interested in the center of the imperial court so that these families can also rise.

The Daxia court was bound to become very wealthy as it received a steady stream of money.

The key is that all this money is earned from wealthy people and will not affect the lives of ordinary people.

Instead, the money can be invested in building roads and canals so that people can live a better life. "

Lin Hai was well aware of the preciousness of Hotan jade, coupled with the official hype from the imperial court.

It can certainly be a high-priced luxury item.

When there are too many rich people, they have to think about consumption. If they hoard all their money, they will instead think about fighting for power.

Giving these rich people a place to have fun can distract them from a large part of their energy.

Moreover, jade carving can support a large number of craftsmen, it can be regarded as creating jobs, and it is all of high quality.

The master teaches his apprentices and slowly forms an industry.

Yuhuashi didn't expect that a jade business would have such a far-reaching impact.

I immediately cheered up.

"Great, since winning the Western Region will be of such great benefit to us in Great Xia.

Then we should prepare quickly to completely defeat the Western Region in one fell swoop. "

"You're right, I thought so too!"

Lin Hai nodded slightly.

Next, we talked about the investigation of the Western Regions.

Although most of the Western Region is a desert area, oases can be formed wherever there is a water source, and it is also a place where people gather.

In addition, many roads have been opened in the Western Region, and there are water wells in the middle, which can ensure that people passing by can get supplies.

As long as there is water, people can survive.

A road without water is a dead end, and no one dares to step on it easily.

Therefore, if we do not have a familiar understanding of the water sources in the Western Regions, we will rush to send troops to the Western Regions.

Once the army enters the desert area, even hundreds of thousands of troops may die of thirst.

You must be fully prepared to attack the Western Region, and you must not let any carelessness take any chances.

Before the soldiers and horses were dispatched, spies from all walks of life were lurking in the Western Regions disguised as businessmen.

Draw all the maps of the Western Region.

The population gathering places are clearly marked.

When a war really breaks out, you can occupy all their cities in one fell swoop.

As long as the water supply is cut off, the Western Region will definitely lose.

As for the troops in the Western Regions, Lin Hai never paid attention to them.

No army is vulnerable to thermal weapons.

The King of the Western Regions quickly received a letter of credence from Daxia, asking them to drive out all the Turkic rebels immediately and not allow them to provide any help.

If the Turkic rebels continue to stay, they will become enemies of Daxia.

Just wait to destroy the country!
Lin Hai wrote a very tough letter to the state. Not only did he have to get rid of the rebels, he also had to apologize to Daxia.

I promise that I will never be allowed to participate in Turkic affairs in the future.

The King of the Western Regions was completely furious after seeing this.

Daxia didn't take him seriously at all. How could a majestic king of the Western Regions suffer such humiliation.

“It’s so hateful that a mere official dares to say such things to this great king.

If they dare to come to my Western Region, I will destroy them all! "The king of the Western Regions was very angry.

Although the military strength in the Western Regions is not strong, they are not afraid of Daxia coming to attack.

First of all, it is very difficult to transport food and grass over such a long distance, and it is not something that can be fought just by trying.

Secondly, due to the terrain of the Western Region, people who do not understand the situation are simply seeking death.

As long as you avoid the strong walls and clear the field, and prevent the enemy from getting supplies, you can easily win.No matter how powerful the invading army is, it cannot last long without water and food.

It may be more convenient to transport food, but it is not realistic at all to have to transport water from outside for such a long distance.

Therefore, although the Western Regions bordered the Turks and Tubo, there were almost no major disputes.

Although the armies of the Western Regions could not defeat the cavalry of the two countries, neither the Turks nor the Turks dared to easily lead their troops into the desert.
The biggest enemies of the Western Region are several small countries in the west. They are all desert and arid areas. They often have wars over water sources.

These small countries in the Western Regions were not taken seriously.

Now that there are [-] Turkic cavalry, it is even easier to deal with these small countries.

The King of the Western Regions did not take Daxia's threat seriously at all.

Instead, they became more determined to keep these rebels.

The ministers of the Western Regions were also very angry.

“Daxia actually dares to be so rude to us in the Western Region, and he should immediately send troops to conquer.

Let them taste the power of our Western Region! "

“Your Majesty, you don’t have to pay attention to Daxia, if they dare to lead troops to attack our Western Region.

We will ensure that they never come back! "

"Over the years, we and Daxia have always been in harmony with each other. Daxia has no right to blame us for what we should do.

But Daxia must not be spared lightly if he dares to treat us like this in the Western Region. "

Mo Han stood aside for a long time without speaking.

But I was extremely happy in my heart.

Daxia's doing this was really beneficial to him, it was like a timely blessing.

Although he has defected to the Western Regions, he can feel that all the officials in the Western Regions are very wary of him.

Try every means to weaken the military power in his hands.

He even wanted to disperse the soldiers in his hands.

Nothing more than wanting to control all the Turkic cavalry.

Now that Daxia is a threat, his status suddenly becomes much more important.

We will definitely need to borrow his power to fight against Daxia in the future.

Mo Han didn't expect that he would be able to take control of the military so quickly, and that he would also be able to get the full support of the Western Regions.

It's just that he can't say much now, he must let the King of the Western Region speak first.

Don't show an eagerness to lead the troops.

The King of the Western Regions saw the officials and soldiers getting excited.

His eyes finally fell on Mo Han.

I saw him standing with his hands tied, his eyes and nose looking at his heart without saying a word.

The King of the Western Regions said: "Mo Han, you have fought with Daxia for several years and know their strength best. Can you tell me how to deal with them if Daxia really sends troops to attack?"

"Your Majesty, Daxia's army has been no match for our Turkic cavalry for so many years, but they recently invented a weapon called gunpowder.

This weapon is very powerful. It is not only loaded into a cannon but has a very long range and is full of lethality.

It can also be made into small explosives, which can be thrown into the army to cause casualties when the two armies are fighting.

There is no defense at all.

That’s why we Turks are no match for them.

The only way to deal with Daxia's cavalry is to outsmart them.

Relying on the favorable terrain of the Western Region, they were dragged into the desert and these enemy troops were thirsty to death.

The best policy is to reduce the casualties of our army. "

Mo Han replied sternly.

"Are Daxia's weapons really so powerful?" Someone looked unbelieving.
