Chapter 1485： Manjiao City

"Meet the ancestors!"

When this voice came, Nangong Rong and Zu Zhi both hurriedly said respectfully.

Zu Zhi is the confidant of the Ice and Snow Dynasty royal family, and he also knows the ancestor of the Ice and Snow Dynasty Nangong Ling.

Nangong Ling's figure appeared in the Imperial Study Room.

Nangong Ling looked at Nangong Rong and sighed slightly, and said, "The current Yuzhou is no longer dominated by one emperor and ten kings."

"The rise of the Nanyan Kingdom has made this pool of Yuzhou muddy."

"The dynasty is in decline, but still wants to regain control of Yuzhou's hegemony. The rise of the Nanyan Kingdom gave them an opportunity. As long as the Nanyan Kingdom can break the ten dynasties, the dynasty can take advantage of the situation and suppress all opposition forces. , Continue to hold the hegemony."

"The Nanyan Kingdom is now powerful, with the six great saints and generals. Such strength is already one of the best in the dynasty. They have the courage to compete with the Ice and Snow Dynasty!"

"Furthermore, the construction of those cities on the northern grasslands is to provide sufficient supplies for the army after mobilizing troops with the Ice and Snow Dynasty in the future."

"In this case, we must make some response!"

Nangong Rong heard what Nangong Ling said and knew that he was speaking to himself, and hurriedly said, "I will arrange the deployment of troops to Nanyan Kingdom!"

"Don't mobilize troops!"

Nangong Ling shook his head and said: "At the moment the Great Emperor's ruins are important, we can't put all our energy into the war with the Nanyan Kingdom. After all, it is not just our Ice and Snow Dynasty that started with the Nanyan Kingdom."

After a short pause, Nangong Ling continued: "Although I don’t know what is tempting in the southwest of Yuzhou, the Cangchu dynasty has already done something to the Nanyan Kingdom before, and it is one of the three generals of the Cangchu dynasty. Yu Kaijun leads the army."

"Although the latter is defeated, it is enough to show that the Cangchu Dynasty is determined to win the southwest of Yuzhou. In this case, we don't need to start a large-scale war with the Nanyan Kingdom. That would only be cheaper. Cangchu Dynasty!"

"This……"

Nangong Rong was taken aback, not understanding what Nangong Ling meant.

If a large-scale war is not launched, then the Nanyan Kingdom can still build a city on the northern grassland, and it will not change the whole situation!

"Zu Zhi, my request has already been stated. Tell me if there are any good suggestions." Nangong Ling asked, looking at Zu Zhi.

Zu Zhi is the general of the Ice and Snow Dynasty, and is the one most trusted by the royal family among the three generals. He is also very powerful. Nangong Ling hopes that Zu Zhizhi has a good suggestion.

Zu Zhi pondered for a moment, and said: "Ancestor, Your Majesty, the final general thinks that we still can't let go of the good opportunity now."

"We are taking advantage of the fact that the Nanyan Kingdom has not captured the entire northern grassland, and the barbarian army has not been completely beheaded.

"Able to encircle the army of the Nanyan Kingdom with the army of the barbarians, it will definitely be able to destroy these army of the Nanyan Kingdom."

Nangong Ling directly shook his head and said: "I have already said that now we cannot start a large-scale war with the Nanyan Kingdom. We don't need to enter the quagmire of the war with the Nanyan Kingdom. After all, it is Cang Chu who laughs most happily like that. The dynasty does not match the interests of the Ice and Snow Dynasty."

"My requirement now is very simple. I just need to prevent the army of the Nanyan Kingdom from attacking the dynasty so quickly. After the end of the great emperor site, the Cangchu dynasty will definitely act on the Nanyan Kingdom again. At that time, it should be the dynasty and Nanyan. The moment when the kingdom's total war begins!"

Zu Zhi felt helpless when he heard Nangong Ling's words.

As the general of the Ice and Snow Dynasty, his abilities are naturally not imaginary, and he knows exactly how rare the opportunity is now.

The war between the Nanyan Kingdom and the northern barbarians is not over yet, and an offensive against the Nanyan Kingdom at this time will surely be a complete victory.

But the interests of the Ice and Snow Dynasty did not allow such things to happen at this time.

Of course, he also wanted to understand. After all, the relationship between the Ice and Snow Dynasty and the Cangchu Dynasty was a competitive relationship, and the Ice and Snow Dynasty wanted to suppress the Cangchu Dynasty and become the first of the ten dynasties.

It's just that the strength of the Cangchu Dynasty was too strong before, and the Ice and Snow Dynasty couldn't do it at all.

Right now there is an opportunity for the Great Emperor's site. The Ice and Snow Dynasty has a great opportunity, and it may even have an impact on the prosperity of the Dynasty.

In this case, it is natural not to have a large-scale war with Nanyan Kingdom!

The ancestor wanted to understand this, but as a general, he also felt a pity that he had missed this excellent fighter opportunity.

"General Zu, can't you think of a countermeasure?" Nangong Rong asked aloud when Zu Zhi hadn't said a way for a long time.

"Your Majesty, there will be a way at the end."

Zu Zhi collected those thoughts in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Patriarch, if we want to prevent the dynasty from worrying about the Nanyan Kingdom’s offensive in a short time without launching a large-scale war, we must win One place."

"Where?"

"Wild Jiao City!"

"Wild Jiao City?"

Nangong Rong frowned slightly when he heard it, and said, "Manjiao City is located behind the Dongbo Mountain Range, and it is a full half a month away from the Dynasty Lansui Pass. It is not that simple to win."

To the north of the Dongbo Mountains is the Ice and Snow Dynasty, and to the south is the northern grassland.

It completely separated the Ice and Snow Dynasty from the northern grasslands. It is precisely because of this that although the Ice and Snow Dynasty would be invaded by the barbarians, because of the Dongbo Mountains, the barbarians were unable to conduct a large-scale attack.

If you want to bypass the Dongbo Mountains, you have to walk for at least three months!

It stands to reason that the Dongbo Mountains in this case should be a strategic location, and both the Ice and Snow Dynasty and the northern barbarians will fight desperately.

But because of the unique climate of the Dongbo Mountains, the weather is unusually cold, and there is ice and snow everywhere, even if the warriors stay in it for a few days, they will not be able to stand it, let alone camping and marching.

Therefore, neither the northern barbarians nor the Ice and Snow Dynasty have ever fought for the Dongbo Mountains.

Therefore, such a good strategic location can only be abandoned.

However, the Ice and Snow Dynasty had to guard against the barbarians from crossing the Dongbo Mountains to attack the Ice and Snow Dynasty, so Lansuiguan was built behind the Dongbo Mountains to defend the northern barbarians.

Before Lansuiguan was completed, the northern barbarians could occasionally invade the Ice and Snow Dynasty through the Dongbo Mountain Range, but after it was completed, such a thing never happened.

However, the Ice and Snow Dynasty would send troops across the Dongbo Mountains to attack the northern grasslands, rob a large number of good horses, and build powerful cavalry.

For this reason, several barbarian tribes that were plundered united to follow the example of the Ice and Snow Dynasty and built a huge barbarian city to prevent the army of the Ice and Snow Dynasty from looting.

Right now, if you want to take down the Barbarian Jiao City, you have to cross the icy Dongbo Mountains, which is a big challenge for the army of the Ice and Snow Dynasty.

Moreover, even if you can pass through and successfully take down the Wild Jiao City, in the environment of the Dongbo Mountains, the subsequent supplies of grain and grass will not be so easy to send.

This is a big problem!

Nangongrong looked at Zu Zhi and asked, "You said you want to take down Manjiao City, but is there any good way to solve the problem of the Dongbo Mountains?"
