"Prince Yan, Gongsun Zan and Liu Hu came to ask for an interview."

"Invite them in."

When Chutian was waiting for Xu You, Chen Ji, Chen Qun and others to come to see him, three lords from Monan asked to see him.

Prince Yan and Gongsun Zan have been working for Chutian for a long time, assisting Liu Hu, the lord of Monan, to develop Longcheng in Monan.

So far, Monan Dragon City has been upgraded to a large city, and a teleportation array has been opened with Xia City. As long as you pay a certain price, you can directly come to Xia City.

Chutian did not specifically summon Prince Yan and others, but they took the initiative to ask for help, which is enough to show that they encountered a difficult problem that they could not solve by themselves, and could only ask Chutian, who is the suzerain, for help.

Soon Prince Yan, Gongsun Zan, Liu Hu and others arrived. Their costumes were different from those in the Central Plains, and their faces were full of stubble. Chu Tian could hardly recognize them.

When Gongsun Zan saw Chutian again, he was already afraid. At this time, Chu Tian was the general of Zhengdong and the shepherd of Yanzhou, with a much higher status than him. Gongsun Zan has only held the official position of the prefect of Youbeiping until now.

Moreover, although Chutian is only the shepherd of Yanzhou, in fact, the shepherd of Xuzhou, the governor of Qingzhou, and the governor of Yuzhou are all from Chutian...

It is a pity that the Eastern Han Dynasty did not have the official position of the Admiral of the four states.

As a local prince, Gongsun Zan still attached great importance to the superiority and inferiority.

On the contrary, Prince Yan was not so restrained.

Liu Hu was the lord of Monan, and his development was not very good. He directly took refuge in Chutian and obtained the help of Prince Yan and Gongsun Zan, and then he developed.

There was worry on his face.

"We brought 30 diamond-level and 500 gold-level or above war horses on this trip. Monan Longcheng has just been upgraded to a large city, and a lot of gold and silver are still being spent to build fortifications, so it is very difficult... No There are not enough warhorses, but the cost of the teleportation array is expensive..."

Prince Yan sent the first batch of war horses to Xiacheng.

This batch of war horses is enough to recruit high-level cavalry.

Chutian subsidized Prince Yan, Gongsun Zan and others to develop in Monan, the purpose is to save the cost of keeping good horses. Even with the cost of transmission, the cost of raising a good horse in Monan is lower than in the Central Plains. The Central Plains are suitable for growing crops, and raising horses means sacrificing income from farmland.

"If only the first batch of war horses were sent, it shouldn't be so exciting that all three of them came to visit me."

Chu Tian's eyes swept over the three people, and it was obvious from their expressions that something was wrong.

Liu Hu said: "The Mongolian cavalry in Mobei... There are lords in Monan who claimed to have seen the figure of the Mongolian cavalry, and now the whole Monan is in chaos. After the national war, everyone knows that Mobei is the Mongolian Empire. You should know, Temujin is not a player, he acts according to his thinking pattern, that is to say, there is a possibility of slaughtering the city..."

As the lord of Monan, Liu Hu is usually fierce in temperament, but when he mentions Mongolian iron cavalry, he can't help but be afraid.

When the Mongolian cavalry went west, there were many records of massacres.

The appearance of the Mongolian cavalry in Monan is a piece of news that is enough to trigger an earthquake in the Han Empire, which has been in constant internal strife.

"If Temujin intends to go south to conquer the Central Plains, then the problem is serious."

Chutian could not be sure whether the chaotic Central Plains could hold back the Mongol Empire's front.

The entire Han Empire joined forces to defeat the Mongolian Iron Cavalry.

Prince Yan said: "The situation is not that bad. The Mongolian cavalry only seized a small piece of pasture in Monan, and did not intend to go south. It seems that they brought back too many people from the national war, and the resources in Mobei are not enough to feed so many people. Just go south."

Liu Hu retorted: "But they have threatened our lords in Monan, and they are occupying our pastures!"

"The threat of Mongolian cavalry is indeed a big problem.

But now, I can't intervene in Mo Nan's affairs. "

Facing the threat of the Mongol Empire, Chutian is currently unable to regain Mobei.

Chutian had participated in the Battle of Mobei, and knew how bad the Gobi terrain between Monan and Mobei was. The area of ​​Mobei in the main world was larger, and it was more difficult to conquer it.

"You must pacify Hebei and occupy Youzhou as soon as possible, otherwise you will not be able to join forces with us to resist the Mongolian Empire. All the lords in Monan have formed an alliance because of the arrival of the Mongolian Empire. If the Mongolian Empire goes south, the Monan Alliance will temporarily Resist their troops. At that time, south of the Great Wall, at least a few great princes will stand up and turn the tide."

"One prince from Youzhou, one prince from Bingzhou, and one prince from Liangzhou sent troops to attack Mobei."

Prince Yan had a good grasp of the overall situation, and he directly pointed out the strategy of crusade against the Mongol Empire. If it weren't for his opponent Mingguan, Prince Yan would now become a great prince of Youzhou.

Gongsun Zan said, "My wise brother thinks too highly of the Mongolian cavalry, my white horse will never let them go back and forth!"

Seeing that Gongsun Zan was full of confidence, Liu Hu still spoke out to attack him: "The Mongolian cavalry is terrible, I am afraid that it is the white horse loyalist who specializes in dealing with aliens, and it is not an opponent of the Mongolian cavalry."

Gongsun Zan heard that Liu Hu had grown up with other people's ambition and destroyed his own prestige, and couldn't help but get angry: "Wait for me to meet the Mongolian cavalry who came to Monan for a while!"

"General White Horse, please don't be impulsive."

Chu Tian spoke out to stop the grumpy Gongsun Zan.

For Liu Hu's judgment, Chu Tian deeply agreed.

Gongsun Zan and his white horse followers fought against the Wuhuan tribe, and they suffered a little loss from the Wuhuan tribe. They were surrounded by Wuhuan cavalry for several months.

Those who invaded Monan were the Mongolian Empire, which had repeatedly carried out westward expeditions and fought with many civilizations.

Tiemuzhen's military rank is higher than that of Baima Yicong, who is a light cavalry soldier. Even Mu Huali's Tanmachi is estimated to be able to defeat Gongsun Zan.

Mu Huali was the hero who conquered half of the Jin Kingdom, and was even more outstanding than Gongsun Zan's performance in Youzhou.

Therefore, Prince Yan and Liu Hu were undoubtedly correct to come to Chutian for help.

The population gained by the Mongol Empire because of the third national war is no less than that of Monan.

"You are actively participating in the formation of the Monan Alliance, focusing on defense. The Mongol Empire should not have the ability to digest tens of millions of people. They need at least a year or two."

Chutian considered that the Mongol Empire had acquired a large population at one time, and in order to appease these populations, Temujin could not rush to start a war, otherwise the tens of millions of people would easily revolt.

"How many people and how many cavalry are there in Monan Longcheng now?"

"Dragon City has a population of 570,000, plus the surrounding tribes, there are about 900,000 people, and about 40,000 professional cavalry. If you gather herdsmen, you can get 60,000 new cavalry. This is the terrible thing about Monan and Mobei. The mobilization rate of conscription is much higher than that of farming civilization. However, the herdsman cavalry is almost the same as the low-level light cavalry. Once they enter the war and do not loot the spoils, their morale and loyalty will drop rapidly..."

40,000 professional cavalry, 60,000 herdsman cavalry!

Chu Tian was amazed at the generosity of the Monan lord.

The scary thing about nomadic civilization is that every household has war horses and grows up on horseback. Once a war is launched, a tribe of one million people can temporarily piece together hundreds of thousands of cavalry!

"You are like..."

Chu Tian again ordered Prince Yan, Gongsun Zan, and Liu Hu to go down and make arrangements.

Prince Yan listened to Chu Tian's deployment, his eyes were bright, and he nodded from time to time.

Liu Hu had a ruthless look in his eyes, and Gongsun Zan also agreed with Chu Tian's deployment.

"When necessary, I will send two or three cavalry generals to assist you."

Chutian placed a chess piece in Mo Nanbu.

Since Prince Yan, Gongsun Zan, Liu Hu and others came to the lord's mansion, in order to win over this group of lords who had come to him from a long distance, Chu Tian set up a banquet to entertain them and discuss the details.

The population of Monan is also more than 10 million, which is almost the same as the current Mobei. However, there has never been a big lord in Mo Nan who can be alone.

The grassland in Monan is too large and lacks a large city as a teleportation array. After a lord is defeated, he can take his tribe to migrate to other places, resulting in no lord who can unify Mo Nan.

The current lord Liu Hu, with a population of 900,000, is already one of the top lords in Monan.

The reason why Temujin took several years to unify Mobei is probably also the reason.

Until now, there have only been three or four large cities in Monan.

In other words, it is only possible for Monan to be unified now. However, the emergence of the Mongol Empire made the lords of Monan form an alliance, and naturally it was impossible for them to join forces.

Prince Yan and the three of them talked with Chu Tian about Monan again, and agreed to send a batch of war horses every month before leaving.

"The Mongol Empire..."

Chu Tian's eyes were ruthless.

Mobei, corresponding to Monan, sooner or later, he will regain Mobei and defeat the Mongolian Empire.

At this time, a child who had just turned one year old and not long tugged on Chutian's trousers, shouted in a milky voice, "Father."

Chu Tian picked him up with one hand, while Xia Liang was holding Hua Mulan's daughter, as if his son had fallen out of favor.

After the son acquires the characteristic of "natural talent must be useful", the growth rate is faster than ordinary people.

Xia Xia Liang asked: "Is it the lord of the Monan area just now?"

Chu Tian replied: "The soldiers of the Mongolian Iron Cavalry have reached Monan, but the two sides are still testing each other. Our Han Empire united Rome and Macedonia in the third national war to defeat the Mongolian cavalry. The Mongolian Empire seems to be very fond of our Han Empire. I'm afraid, so I don't dare to go south in a big way. Otherwise, the lords of Monan can't resist, and in the end, we still have to rely on the lords in our pass to make a large-scale northern expedition."

Xia Xia Liang said as a matter of course: "Then take Hebei and Youzhou as soon as possible, and border with Monan, so as to reduce the cost of sending troops."

"That's what I meant. The states and counties immediately recruited troops to transport troops to Yanzhou. Within a year or two, they would pacify Hebei and occupy Youzhou within three years."

"I'll go out with you."

"And I……"

After the birth of her daughter, Mulan was eager to join the war again.

Chu Tian couldn't help but have a headache. The women he was looking for seemed to be very good at fighting, one was a commander-in-chief and the other was a general.

Xia Xia Liang said: "My magic battalion requires gunpowder and arquebuses to form. According to the information I entrusted to Xue Yue's investigation, the technology of the Han Empire in this area is currently monopolized by Mingguan. He is the enemy of Xianggong, and he cannot be willing to do so. Give up this precious technology to your husband. Maybe please Mi Zhu to go to Dongying to see if you can get the corresponding drawings from the famous Dongying."

"I will tell Mi Zhu to inquire."

Chutian knew that because of the relative weakness of the Eastern Ying civilization, some famous names in the Eastern Ying had a special type of arms "iron artillery team", and the equipment was almost the same as that of the Shenji Battalion.

As long as you have money, you may be able to take advantage of the contradiction between the daimyo in the East, to deal with it and buy the corresponding blueprints.

In order to form the Shenji Camp, the price of the blueprints should be less than 100,000 taels of silver, which is acceptable to Chutian.

It's really not possible, the big deal is this year's fourth epic battle, directly use the points to exchange - the premise is that you have the corresponding blueprint.

According to past practice, the opening time of the epic battle should be November. It's still a while until November.

In view of the Mongol Empire's threat to Monan, Chutian had to speed up the attack on Hebei.

So Chu Tian hurriedly called Xu You to see him.

In the Grand Duchy of Moscow, St. Petersburg, the always strong Duke Catherine unexpectedly stopped expansion and recuperated.

This made her old enemies, the lords of civilizations such as Poland, Lithuania, and Sweden, puzzled.

They are ready to use their national strength to fight Yekaterina to the death, but now Yekaterina has no intention of fighting at all.

"Sophia, I'm going to kill him."

In Ekaterina's room, her voice came.

"Oh."

"Don't stop me."

"Oh."

"..."

Ekaterina finally sat back in her seat with her head down in dejection, stroking her slightly bulging belly.

Originally, she just wanted to take revenge on Chutian, but she never thought that Chutian was so capable...

"No matter what, I will never go to the Eastern Han Dynasty. This child only belongs to St. Petersburg."
