Xiao Yilin did not bother to review the memorial after the War Ministry minister left. She was pacing back and forth in Zichen Palace, thinking about what her daughter-in-law was doing now and what her son looked like.
Thinking that her daughter-in-law was now occupying the Meizhou House, sooner or later the emperor of Yi Kingdom would find out. He felt that in addition to sending troops to the border to hold back the forces of Yi Kingdom, he also had to help his daughter-in-law's Doomsday Army become stronger.
Army cavalry was much stronger than infantry, but war horses were rare. Due to the lack of war horses, it was not easy to expand the cavalry.
Xiao Yilin decided to secretly give some war horses to his wife's Doomsday Army.
In the beginning, his wife had obtained tens of thousands of warhorses from Xiyan, and the Jin State had bred many war horses in the past two years, which was only for the Doomsday Army daughter-in-law to build cavalry.
Xiao Yilin found a trustworthy person and asked him to go to the Meizhou House disguised as a horse trader, trying to sell the war horse to the Tianqi Army.
Although Jing Yi tried his best to block the news, the news that the Meizhou Mansion was occupied by the Doomsday Army still spread to the capital.
It was an official from Meizhou Prefecture who came to the capital to spread the news. This man was named Ma Kun, because his official position was not high, he was inconspicuous in Meizhou. When Jing Yi and the others raided the capital of Meizhou, Ma Kun happened to return to his hometown on business and was not in Meizhou, so he escaped the fate of being caught.
When he returned from his hometown, he discovered that the Meizhou Mansion was occupied by a group of people, and all the officials of the Meizhou Mansion were arrested.
Ma Kun realized the seriousness of the matter, he disguised himself as a disaster survivor to inquire about the news in Meizhou, and discovered that the Doomsday Army had a large number and strict discipline, the leader turned out to be a young woman.
He did not dare to ask anymore, he left the boundary of the Meizhou Mansion off the mountain path and went all the way to the capital.
Ma Kun first looked for Jing Zhaoyin, Jing Zhaoyin heard that the news Ma Kun brought was too important, so she went straight to the palace to meet the emperor, he said, and then Ma Kun was also summoned to the palace. At the same time, several ministers were also summoned to the palace.
Emperor Yongguang looked at Ma Kun who was kneeling below and asked in a deep voice: “You said that Meizhou Mansion was occupied and all the officials were arrested, really?” Ma Kun said tremblingly with his forehead pressed against the ground: "Yang
Your Majesty, what I said is true. The Qi Army now had many people, and they were still recruiting a lot. If they grow stronger in time, they could pose a major threat to the courts. The minister also learns that the leader of the Qi forces turns out to be
a Woman had now become the ruler of the Meizhou House, and it was said that the people in the Meizhou House were very supportive of her."
Emperor Yongguang frowned, "Do you know who that woman is?"
Ma Kun said: "My minister found the last name of the female lead to be Liu, so I couldn't find another one. I was afraid that I would be revealed and would not be able to come to the capital to report the news, so I did not dare to investigate too deeply. Your Majesty, the Qi army continued to grow that day, and we had to send troops to attack the Tianqi army as quickly as possible, and retake the Meizhou mansion
. The War Ministry next to him stood up at this time, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, there is now a peasant riot in Xuzhou and a revolt in Gyeongju. The army we sent to suppress the uprising has not achieved results. If we want to send troops to Meizhou to quell the rebellion, we have to send troops from elsewhere." Bing.
It was just that Weichen thought that Meizhou Prefecture was located in a remote place, and the threat to the capital was not as serious as Xuzhou and Qingzhou, respectively, and Weichen thought that the most important thing was to finish the rebellion in Xuzhou and Qingzhou as quickly as possible.” Emperor Yongguang was very upset.
Walking back and forth in the hall with a frown, he suddenly stood still and said to the Minister of War Ministry: "Isn't there still hundreds of thousands of troops stationed at the northwestern border? Send them to Meizhou Prefecture to suppress the rebellion. " The Minister of War Ministry quickly said:
" Your Majesty, this is completely unacceptable. The garrison at the northwestern border must not only guard against Beiyan's attack, but also guard against the looting of Jin State. The Good State
Emperor Yongguang said: "First, move 200,000 troops from the border to Meizhou Prefecture to quell the rebellion, and at the same time expand conscription, he said, and using the newly recruited soldiers to go to the border first to fill in the numbers Now the new emperor Jin has only been on the throne for two years, it won't be easy to increase the forces Ya Beiyan was badly wounded by the Jin State two years ago, so there's no need to worry about the war on the border, and troops will be sent to return Meizhou House."
The emperor had taken a decision, and some ministers were unable to persuade him to do anything according to his wishes.
Immediately Yiguo deployed 200,000 soldiers from the northwestern border and went straight to Meizhou Prefecture.
As soon as there was a movement at the border of Yiguo, Xiao Yilin immediately got the news. Xiao Yilin knew that the emperor of Yi Kingdom might send an army to attack his wife's Doomsday Army, which was impossible.
Xiao Yilin immediately summoned the War Minister and ordered the 200,000 soldiers who were already on their way to rush to the border as quickly as possible, directly suppressing the Yiguo border.
Xiao Yilin ordered the Minister of War Ministry to send another 50,000 cavalry to the border area of Yi Kingdom.
If the 200,000 soldiers who were transferred from the border gate of Yi State do not return to help, the, so the 250,000 troops transferred from Jin State plus the 100,000 troops originally stationed at the border would be a total of 350,000 troops to attack Yi State directly.
Jing Yi had planted a spy in the capital, and if there was any movement in the capital, Jing Yi would soon get word.
Soon Jing Yi also got word that Yi Guo was sending 200,000 troops to encircle and suppress the Tianqi Army.
This news put a lot of pressure on Jing Yi. Because he knew that although the Doomsday Army now had over 200,000 people, most of the Doomsday Army were recruits and had never been to the battlefield. The combat effectiveness of recruits who had not been baptized by the war was not at all comparable to that of veterans. If the Doomsday Army really faced the 200,000 troops of Yi Kingdom, even if they won in the end, they would suffer heavy losses. This is not what he wants to see.
But no matter what, he had to be prepared for battle.
The quality of the soldiers is better than the others, so find out from the weapons.
Jing Yi improved the previously designed crossbow and designed the large crossbow, this large crossbow can shoot many crossbow arrows at once and has a longer range, is a sharp weapon for long range attacks.
Jing Yi also asked people to collect a lot of sulfur and other materials, then he made a lot of bombs himself. Jing Yi kept the bomb in her lucky bag, and she would not use it unless absolutely necessary.
In this ancient world, no one had found the black powder, and no one knew the power of this bomb, Jing Yi did not want to release this monster easily.
While Emperor Yongguang was waiting for the 200,000 soldiers mobilized from the border to crush the rebels in Meizhou Prefecture in a single move, the War Minister rushed to the palace to request an audience.
As soon as the War Ministry Minister entered the hall, he knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, this is not good. The border gate came to report. The Jin state often mobilized troops to the border gate. There are now 300,000 troops on the border of Jin State, and they can attack our Yi State at any time.
" The Minister of War Ministry delivered an urgent report from the border.
Emperor Yongguang was shocked after receiving the report, "Why did the Jin Kingdom suddenly send troops to the border? Do they know that there is an uprising in our country and they want to take advantage of it?" The Minister of War said: "Your Majesty, no matter
what the Jin Kingdom wants, we should all prepare for battle. At the same time, they had to be wary of the arrival of Beiyan in order to take advantage of the flames. Therefore, soldiers and horses moved from the northwestern border had to return quickly. Not only did 200,000 troops have to return to the border as quickly as possible, but also try to add troops to the border. Otherwise, I fear the Jin Dynasty will actually attack us. "
