Chapter 186: Drastic change in Xia Kingdom! The world is shaken! Epoch-making invention!
It was not as easy as fighting on the plains.
Besides, it was not that urgent either.
Cao Meng and Li Tang were overthrown and Zhu Chongbai was surrounded.
These two messages came out almost simultaneously!
Xia De in the southwest and Sun Quan in Jiangdong were dumbfounded!
Things were good yesterday.
First thing in the morning was that he just found out that his own family was dying.
“Do you have any good ideas? What’s the best plan!”
In Sun Quan’s house, Sun Quan shouted angrily.
All the advisers and generals around were silent.
It was not that they didn’t want to talk about it but there really was no good strategy.
Even if it was Lu Sun, he also felt that it was very difficult to defeat them!
The 10,000 troops were led by Han Xin.
They were stationed in the north of the Great Desolate River.
They were also monitoring the movements of the southwest and Jiangdong at the same time.
After solving Cao Meng and Li Tang, Chang Yu Chun and Le Yi’s army rushed over and spearheaded the launch of a campaign against Southwest attack!
This time, Xia De in the southwest was defensive and led all soldiers and strategists into battle but in the first battle, it was still a quick defeat!
Xia De’s army quickly retreated to Bajiao City, trying to rely on this strong city to resist the attack of the Great Desolate Army!
Surprisingly, at this time, the Great Desolate Army did not continue to attack.
Yan sent an eunuch over to come to Bajiao City to announce Xia De as the King of the Southwest.
Of course this was in the case that Xia De opened the city and surrendered.
Xia De was originally the royal uncle.
This condition could be said to be justified.
“Accept it, my Lord.”
“Big brother, the situation is not as good as others. You are also a relative of the royal family. It is not bad to be the king of the Southwest.”
Inside the lobby, all strategists and generals including Guan Yunchang, Zhang Feiqiao and Fa Mu were on their knees and begged Xia De to accept this decree!
All of them could see that even if they give Southwest another ten years to develop.
They could never catch up with the Great Desolate Army, whether it was in the aspect of weapons or tactics, etc, they were way too ahead of them!
Xia De thought about it for some time and chose to accept this title.
As for the remaining tens of thousands of troops, all of them surrendered.
So far, the southwest was flat!
Among the five main forces in the world, there was only one Jiangdong left, relying on the natural danger of the Desolate River.
Sun Quan set up a line of defense on the Desolate River.
“Our Great Desolate Army is still weaker in terms of water warfare.”
Looking at the danger of the Desolate River, Han Xin sighed.
It was not just about water wars, there were also boats.
It was also something that the Great Desolate Army lacked but they were not in a hurry either.
Sun Quan was considered to be one of the weakest one of the major powers.
In addition, the Great Desolate Army still had another move!
“Ships and water battles can be built slowly, but in the face of fortified cities, our means are still lacking.”
The advisor Wang Meng next to him said.
Han Xin nodded.
In the siege of Bajiao City and Jiankang City, there were no major attacks but there was still some fighting.
The siege was a bit difficult!
“If we can directly bypass the city walls and let the Grand Desolate Army fly into the air, then we can strike again.”
Zhao Zilong said.
“An air strike?”
Han Xin and Wang Meng were both slightly stunned.
They just imagined the possibility.
“Do you think the research team, given its capabilities, is capable of realizing this possibility?”
Han Xin couldn’t help but ask a few scholars who were with the army behind him.
“The only thing that can fly in the air at the moment is a hot air balloon.”
One scholar replied.
This hot air balloon thing was developed back in the era of Qi.
It had long been discovered that it could carry people to the sky but until now, it was not used much.
Mostly, it had too many drawbacks.
It was not practical enough.
Far away from the air strikes that Han Xin was talking about was not even close!
“The rest is just a concept.”
This scholar shook his head.
Among many scholars, naturally, someone had suggested a similar idea.
However, with the current level of technology of the Great Desolate Army.
It was still far from heaven.
“Didn’t you say that a research group is already working on a steam car that doesn’t use horses?”
Zhao Zilong asked curiously.
“Even if it is developed, it is still far from being able to go to the sky.”
This scholar said with a smile.
The crowd did not explore this issue any further.
While the Great Desolate Army was conquering around.
Inside the Royal Tombs Mountains, the Great Desolate Institute of Technology had now become the place with the most scholars in the entire Xia Kingdom!
A research group developed an epoch-making invention!!!
