Chapter 35 The concern of blockade, Yunyao's request
Since the first group of people who came to Leiyun Mountain to join Yunyao, more people have arrived one after another.
But one month.
The number of residents of the Yun Kingdom around Leiyun Mountain increased to tens of thousands.
Most of them are ordinary people, but there are also hundreds of Yunjun soldiers and more than a dozen officials.
However, among these officials, the highest positions were county magistrates, such as Ma Ji and Wang Chang, who had no national high-ranking officials.
The arrival of these people not only caused Yunyao to mobilize human resources, but also brought some news outside Yunling one after another.
It was also because of this that Yun Yao and others realized that the Yong State had transferred Bai Qiu away and participated in the war to attack Ning State.
But the newly transferred to Yun State was General of the Yong State and Sima Hu.
"As far as I know, Sima Hu is famous for his prudence and good at guarding. He has been in the army for decades. Although he has not had a very prominent record, he has never lost any war as long as the war he presided over.
Yonghou sent this person to our Yun Kingdom and contacted them that they were attacking Ning Kingdom. I believe that for a considerable period of time, we would take the defensive stance in the direction of our Yunling, and would no longer take the initiative to enter the mountains and strangle them as Bai Qiu was there."
These words were said by General Zhang Wu.
The location is in the tallest wooden house in the middle of Yungu.
There is a simple plaque hanging on this wooden house, with three beautiful and majestic characters written by Yun Yao himself - Zhengshitang.
The large wooden house is divided into three rooms.
The two rooms on the left and right are called "Wenxin Pavilion" and "Wuying Pavilion", which are the places where the civil and military ministers in the valley handle their respective affairs.
The middle room is where Yun Yao and others meet and discuss the matter.
However, at present, there are no more than ten people who can enter the Political Affairs Hall to participate in the court meeting.
At this time, there were only Yun Yao, Nie Xueqiong, Wang Chang, Ma Ji, Zhang Wu, and Yun Shu who was the waiter next to him.
Even the captain Peng Feng was not qualified to participate.
After hearing Zhang Wu's words, Ma Ji said: "In this way, should it be a good thing for the replacement of Yong State to our Yun State?"
Wang Chang sighed: "It is indeed the case in the short term, but it may not be a good thing in the long term."
Wang Chang is not as short and thin as Ma Ji, seven feet tall and slightly fat.
If it weren't for the gray hair, the face, and the eyebrows and eyes were full of vicissitudes, he looked like an old man from a wealthy family.
Yun Yao also felt that Yongguo could not make them feel comfortable in Yunling, but she couldn't think of what measures the Yongguo Council should take.
Hearing that Wang Chang had similar concerns, she said, "Shangshu Wang, please tell me carefully."
Wang Chang said: "I think that Sima Hu came to Yun Kingdom not just to prevent us from counterattacking and restoring the country.
Because Yongguo must have known that with our manpower and material resources, we cannot counterattack in a short period of time.
Then the Yong Kingdom transferred Sima Hu to come, which must be to solve our problem. It was just a different approach.
When Bai Qiu was the chief general, Yong State wanted to wipe us out quickly.
Now that Sima Hu is the main general, I am afraid that the strategy of blockade will be adopted and trap us in this cloud ridge!"
blockade?
Yun Yao and others couldn't help but realize it.
Then Nie Xueqiong couldn't help but say, "The border between Yunling and my hometown of Yun Kingdom is so long, can Sima Hu block it?"
Wang Chang knew that Nie Xueqiong, like Yun Yao, was too young and had little knowledge, so he said patiently: "General Nie, they don't need to block Yunling, they just need to control all kinds of important materials in the homeland of Yun Kingdom, and then patrol the northern border of Yunling with their troops."
"Yong Kingdom can manage my Yun Kingdom's hometown, but it can't manage Zhao Kingdom and Jin Kingdom, right? Can we send a caravan to exchange the necessary supplies from Zhao Kingdom and Jin Kingdom?" Yun Yao thought.
Wang Chang smiled bitterly, "Master, we want to get this, how can the monarch and ministers of Yong Kingdom not know about it?
Among them, Zhao State was small and weak, and was always invaded by Wei State.
Although there is no definite news yet, I think that the State of Wei will not have no action when the State of Yong attacks Ning, and will most likely take this opportunity to annex Zhao Kingdom.
If this is true, I am afraid that we will not only find it difficult to get assistance from the east, but we should be alert to the Wei State's gaze at Yunling.
As for Jin Kingdom, the monarchs and ministers in the country have always believed that they have dangerous dependence on mountains and rivers, and external affairs have nothing to do with them.
In addition, the king is secretly weak, and Yong State only needs to send envoys to coerce and induce people. I am afraid that Jin State will cooperate with Yong State to block Yunling."
After hearing Wang Chang say this, Ma Ji felt that it was too disgusting and couldn't help but retort: "According to what Wang Shangshu said, do we have to wait for death?"
Wang Chang was a good-tempered person. He was not angry about Ma Ji's words, but explained: "Mr. Ma misunderstood. I said this, just to make the Lord and you prepare for the face of the blockade earlier.
I believe that there is no way out. As long as we make sufficient preparations, even if we cannot quickly accumulate the strength to restore our country, we will not be trapped in Yunling."
Yun Yao nodded after hearing this, "Shangshu Wang is right, we should prepare early.
In this way, Wang Shangshu and General Zhang might as well send more people before Sima Hu blocked Yunling, pretending to be a caravan to go out of the mountain to purchase all kinds of supplies we need.
As for the protection and construction of Leiyun Mountain, let us leave it to General Nie and Minister Ma.”
When a few people heard this, they knew that this was equivalent to a formal will.
Wang Chang and others also felt that this matter must be done, so they immediately bowed together and said, "I will receive the order!"
···
After "going to court", Yun Yao came to find Xiong.
One is to continue to accompany Xiong Qi to study and practice calligraphy.
Second, when she was on Xiongqi's side, she always felt much more relaxed, as if all the burdens that were pressing on her heart were gone.
However, Xiong Qi was not going to let Yun Yao study with him this time.
After meeting, it poked its claws and wrote on the sandbox: "Where has the copper smelting gone? I want to go and see."
Smelting copper to make a large amount of copper wire is the first step for Xiong Qi to accelerate his practice using hydroelectric generators.
More than a month has passed, but it has not even seen the shadow of copper wire, so of course it has to ask.
Otherwise, who knows whether Yun Yao, Ma Ji and others deliberately delayed?
Even if it does not deliberately delay, it will make the progress faster if it goes to patrol and put some pressure on it.
Yun Yao smiled and said, "Mr. Little Bear doesn't ask, I'm about to talk about this."
Just now, when the Political Affairs Hall was discussing affairs, Mr. Ma told me that he had found an open-pit red copper mine more than 20 miles southwest of Leiyun Mountain.
After investigation, there were many wild beasts in that area. Even if soldiers were sent to guard and protect, they would inevitably be attacked by beasts.
Especially a group of alien bisons, almost every strength is above the ninth level of body tempering, and there are several alien beasts suspected to be in the Spirit-Merge Realm.
General Zhang went to see it and said that if he brought more than a thousand soldiers, although he could drive away the group of wild buffaloes, he would have many casualties if he was not careful.
Therefore, Mr. Ma and General Zhang wanted to invite Lord Xiaoxiong to go and let the group of alien bison migrate elsewhere."
Yun Yao speaks very carefully here.
Because she didn't know what Xiong Qi was doing to other wild beasts, especially strange beasts.
Therefore, Zhang Wu and others asked her to ask Xiong Qi to destroy Niu Qun, but she didn't mention it, just asked Xiong Qi to drive Niu Qun away.
She thought Xiong Qi would easily agree to such a small matter.
Unexpectedly, after listening to it, Xiong Qi wrote directly: "I won't go."
Don't go?
Yun Yao was stunned when she saw it.
Does Xiong Qi think they are too incompetent and want them to solve the problem by themselves?
Just as Yun Yao was thinking about how to "please" Xiong Qi, she heard Xiong Qi growl.
Then I heard the cuckold on the top of the pavilion shouting: "I'll go, I'll go! Lao Niu is the most obedient!"
