Chapter 625 Good News
"So, the Northern Huns have been keeping their troops on hold just to wait for the two allies to arrive?" Chen Gong said in a deep voice. This was not good news.
"Far more than that. I estimate that once we start fighting the Northern Huns, the Parthian Empire on the western front will send troops to contain Xu Rong without hesitation."
Jia Xu frowned and wondered why the Northern Huns had been pretending to be dead, and whether they were waiting for them here.
"Perhaps the Parthian army has already reached the western front!"
"It's really terrible. There's no good news at all?" Fa Zheng was extremely annoyed. Why did they start with the hell difficulty? Could this be the world of adults?
"There is some good news. The battle in Qingzhou has come to an end. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu will land near Goryeo to help the Eastern Army."
"And there is Goryeo. Gao Xianzhi of Goryeo has united a group of remaining Goryeo forces to pledge allegiance to us, and has also assembled a force to go north to join Han Shizhong."
Xu You coughed twice, then stood up and spoke.
"Huh?" Even Guo Hao was shocked by the news. Didn't they say before that the war situation in Qingzhou was deteriorating? How come it has come to an end in just over ten days?
"Old General Huangfu exchanged a wave of tactics with the enemy, using a full-board air fleet as bait, and severely damaged the Japanese naval forces. I'm afraid the two sides will have to cease fighting for a while!" Xu You explained briefly.
"Sacrifice an entire fleet?" Chen Xi was extremely concerned about this issue. He happened to have a batch of new designs from the Mohists on hand. If he could free up the space for a fleet, he could start this project.
The biggest problem facing the Han Dynasty now is not anything else, but the lack of manpower in the navy.
Even the trio of military gods had no better solution for this.
Although these three are military gods, they are still human beings, not complete gods.
How do you expect a trio who have hardly seen the sea to make any achievements in the navy?
Although he could give Huangfu Song some reference opinions from a high-level perspective, in reality he still had to rely on Huangfu Song's own research.
This led to the Han Dynasty's navy being short of manpower.
Even if Chen Xi could launch two fully staffed fleets a year, they would just lie in the dock gathering dust and be of no use at all.
Speaking of it, Huangfu Song's method of dealing with Japan was simple. He simply threw a fully staffed set of empty ships in front of Japan. The Japanese commander was greedy and wanted to take people to forcibly take these ships away.
After all, Japan is different from the Han Dynasty. There are really not many supplies in their homeland to build ships, so a set of fully staffed empty ships is almost fatal to them.
Then there is nothing more to say. Huangfu Song directly took fatal action, Gou Lianyunqi played a game of desperate measures, and sent the Japanese navy directly into the sky. After a overwhelming tsunami hit, the sea was in ruins.
Moreover, with the help of Zuo Ci, Huangfu Song found a large number of sea beasts in the sea and brought them directly to the battlefield for a buffet.
The first battle directly destroyed the fleets of both sides, and then Japan was forced to be pulled into a peace phase by Huangfu Song.
By the way, Huangfu Song could free up his hands and allow Sun Ce and others to come and participate in the war to encircle and suppress the Northern Huns. It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone and it was truly a win.
"Wen Ruo, remember to deal with the Qingzhou matter. You write the report and I will approve it." Chen Xi said calmly.
It was as if Huangfu Song was sacrificing not a fleet but a fishing boat.
Seeing that it was time for Chen Xi to show off his wealth, Lu Zhi, a Qing Confucian, felt very uncomfortable.
"What's the situation in Goryeo?" Lu Zhi interrupted Chen Xi's singing and asked about the situation in Goryeo.
"Goryeo..." A strange expression appeared on Xu You's face.
"I really don't know how to comment...you should just watch it for yourselves!"
After everyone read the information given by Xu You, they all showed indescribable expressions on their faces.
Gao Xianzhi actually gathered two royal guards and 20,000 double-talented troops in Goryeo. That was fine, after all, there were quite a few prisoners left over from . It was not a problem to gather this number of subordinates from so many prisoners.
The key point is that Goryeo has now been fully sinicized, as if the Han Dynasty did not go to destroy the country before, but to help them liberate themselves from the oppression of gods.
Everyone happily accepted their existence as vassals of the Han Dynasty, calling themselves second-class Han citizens, and frantically moved closer to the Han Dynasty.
The level of enthusiasm was so high that Xu You didn't know what to say.
"This is really the Goryeo style!" Guo Hao's eyes twitched. This familiar feeling of being called dad, this is worthy of Goryeo.
"In addition, Goryeo has also sent a lot of private collections of gods, and even several local gods have formed a delegation of envoys who want to come here to ask you, the general, to enthrone them!" Xu You continued.
"Conferring title? How to confer title?" Guo Hao was a little surprised. It sounded a bit like the conferring title to mountain gods and river gods by the immortal cultivation dynasty.
"I don't know. I heard that it seems that it needs to be canonized in conjunction with the national destiny. After the canonization, these gods are bound to the national destiny. They prosper together and suffer together. This is what happened to the gods of Goryeo who died bravely before."
Xu You explained it, but felt that his explanation was not comprehensive, so he turned his gaze to Zhang Jue standing aside.
"They are deified through incense. Just like the legend says, they entrust their true names and souls to the fate of the country. As long as the empire survives, they will never die."
"After their imperial will was shattered by the general, the gods who were tied to the fate of Goryeo lost the possibility of survival, so they chose to die heroically." Zhang Jue explained briefly.
There is nothing much to say about this method. Simply put, it is just rushing to serve the empire as a dog.
As for whether they will bite people in the future, that depends on the methods used by the manager. As long as they are used properly, it is equivalent to getting a group of watchdogs for free.
However, if it is not used properly, it will become like the previous Goryeo Dynasty, with imperial power and divine power going hand in hand, leaving endless harm.
"Reject it directly. How can a barbarian little god be worthy of being bound to the destiny of the country!" Guo Hao refused directly after hearing it.
History has proven that Goryeo is an untamed dog. It would be better to crush its entire civilization and digest it all after two or three generations. There is no need for such a civilization to exist.
"This kind of method is forbidden in the Han Dynasty. Humanity is flourishing, so why go far away and seek something near?" Guo Hao said coldly.
He knew that someone below must have been tempted, so he sealed the hole in advance.
This method of class solidification is almost as effective as the Kushan caste system. It would be a good thing if it were to continue to be passed down.
Guo Hao's cold words instantly dispelled the group of people's thoughts. After all, with their means, it was not a difficult thing to transform into this kind of existence.
