He Weixian's words were astonishing, which made everyone stunned, but Tie Muer showed joy. Judging from the current situation, he had long seen the Khan's mind. He didn't know whether it was because he was scared by the Southern Army or because he left some shadow when he was a proton in Lin'an. Anyway, he was unwilling to go back to Dadu in the face of the current situation.

"Khan, if you want to judge whether the Southern Army wants to invade the north, you can only know the three points." He Weixian said again as if he was not shocking and said.

"Please tell me He Wanhu!" Tie Mu'er's eyes lit up, and he stretched forward and looked at him and said.

"Yes!" He Weixian bowed to the top and said, "One of the things that the Southern Dynasty emperor personally fought for and the empress was the custom of the empress's reign. Therefore, as long as the empress was following the emperor who accompanied the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Tour of the Ming Dynasty, it can be seen that the Southern Dynasty emperor was personally fought and was just going out to relax."

"In addition, the Southern Army relies heavily on baggage when fighting, while the Southern Dynasties' weapon yard and military supplies are mainly distributed in the south of the Yangtze River. If they invade north, they will definitely transfer animal resources on a large scale, and their transportation depends on grain transportation. As long as they find out the number of grain ships passing through the Southern Dynasties canal in the recent past, they can judge one or two."

"Three, the Southern Army invaded the north and transported baggage, and wanted to recruit large-scale military troops to go to the nearby army to go on a large scale. Everyone knows that sending 10,000 troops requires multiple military troops, and mobilizing a large number of military troops also takes time. Therefore, as long as we roughly observe how many military troops the Southern Dynasty conscripted, we will roughly understand the number of military troops the Southern Army will be deployed, and we will determine the size of the war they are going to launch."

"I have thought of these things now. Please tell me the knights clearly right or wrong!" He Weixian said after saying that.

"Well, do you think what He Wanhu said is credible?" Tiemuer nodded and asked everyone.

"He Wanhu's words are very reasonable. Although the emperor will not come to the battle personally, there are also great risks. When he goes to the battle, he will often use the queen to supervise the country and establish a crown in case of unexpected accidents. Now the Southern Dynasties has given birth to a legitimate son, and it is the most legitimate to supervise the country. Once something happens, a new emperor can be established to stabilize the court." Li Siyan said first.

He was from the Southern Dynasty and a Jinshi of the Southern Dynasty. Of course, he was the most familiar with the rules of the Southern Dynasty, so his words were naturally the most credible. Several people nodded after hearing this, "Well, quickly check whether the queen of the Southern Dynasty of Ming Dynasty was with him!" Tie Muer immediately ordered.

"He Wanhu is worthy of being a pillar of the country. He is familiar with military affairs. It is common sense that the soldiers and horses should move forward before they move their food and grass. It is a mistake for our spies to only focus on the army of the Southern Dynasty." An Tong continued.

"Yes, in order to monitor the Southern Dynasties' mobilization, our spies suffered heavy losses, but they did not expect such a simple method. They really lost their money and lost it! "Korigis sighed lightly, "He Wanhu revealed the mystery in just a few words. If I had asked for advice earlier, I would not have made such a mistake!"

"Shishou is so serious!" He Weixian waved his hand quickly, "Shishou has led the army outside the border for a long time and has never had any confrontation with the new army of the Southern Dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to not understand their way of using troops."

"Yes, I have never fought with the Southern Dynasties, and most of my knowledge is heard from him. Some say that the Southern Dynasties' army is powerful and invincible, and its firearms are very fierce. Some people disdain, saying that the Southern Dynasties is vulnerable. Once they enter the open Central Plains and the South of the Mo, they are no match for our army who are familiar with. Now they will only learn the truth after hearing what He Wanhu said." Kurigis nodded and said.

Just now, He Weixian actually claimed that Korigis did not know the military, which made everyone secretly worried about him. Korigis had his own army, which was powerful in the desert, and was a two-character prince consort in the dynasty. He was also the Privy Councilor, commanding the soldiers of the whole country. Wouldn't this anger him? What made people wonder was that he was not only not angry but admitted it, but this demeanor made people respect him.

"The current official advocates staying outside the Great Wall for the time being, but he is still worried about the safety of the Khan." He Weixian seemed to have not noticed it, and sighed lightly and continued.

"Oh, He Wanhu has any worries, please tell me!" Tiemur couldn't wait to ask without waiting for others to speak.

"When our dynasty conquered Jiangnan, the country had almost destroyed, so we could only defend the small land of Qiongzhou to survive. However, after our dynasty many expeditions and suppression, the Southern dynasty not only failed to destroy the country, but instead restored the country again. It was not the horse and infantry army, but actually relying on its strong naval army." He Weixian said.

"Yes, when the Southern Dynasty was defending Qiongzhou, not only did the navy often harasse the southeast coast with naval forces, but our dynasty had been defeated by them one after another, with thousands of ships damaged. Now they are almost completely lost and have no power as they used to be. Faced with the invasion of the Southern Dynasty navigators, they can only avoid the port and dare not go to war." An Tong was an old man who had experienced that era and was very clear about the past.

"Well, during the Southern Dynasties, I once saw the Southern Dynasties Imperial Navy stationed at the Hangzhou Wharf. The giant sea ships anchored were tall and mighty, carrying more than 40 artillery pieces, and more medium-sized warships were equipped with firearms. If the entire fleet had only one volley, our small city would probably be razed to the ground." Tiemuer nodded with lingering fear.

"It is said that the Southern Army attacked the Wang family in the past. Xiangfan sent a naval army to go up the Han River. The fleets bombarded the prefectures and counties along the river, and all the city walls were destroyed. The soldiers of our dynasty were closed and dared not fight. They could only let them go to Hanzhong. They all surrendered soon. I wanted to see that the navy was only majestic." Kuorigis said.

"Did Khan know why our country's exports to the Western Regions and Ogedei in the past two years, and why silk from Chagatai and other countries were unsold? Is the price also falling again and again?" He Weixian asked again.

"Aren't it because our dynasty declined and we deliberately suppressed the price?" Tiemur said in a little uncertain. He knew that when the Mongols conquered the world, Genghis Khan had fiefs for his sons in various places, so that they were intertwined with each other. In the Mongolian Yuan, there were still the "Five Sihus" of Chagatai and Ogedei Khan. Although they had a bad relationship with each other, they still had to export hundreds of thousands of silk pieces to them every year, and they also used this to develop trade.

"As far as I know, this is not the case, but the large amount of silk in Jiangnan was exported to the Western and Southern countries, resulting in the price of silk falling." He Weixian said.

"No way?!" An Tong said in surprise, "As far as I know, after I pacified the south of the Yangtze River, I also vigorously developed maritime trade, selling silk, porcelain and tea to the South and the West. However, the countries along the way either bought at a low price, or entrusted taxes, or directly sent troops to rob, and there was no such thing as selling them on a large scale."

"At the beginning of the Southern Dynasties, they were also forced to buy and sell by countries along the way. The previous year, the Emperor of the Southern Dynasties sent a navy army to expedition to the West. In a year, he destroyed hundreds of cities and states, conquered dozens of city-states, and threatened the vassal states, forcing them to sign alliances under the city, open up the market, and exempted tariffs. The Southern Dynasties' goods sales were unobstructed." He Weixian said.

"Are the Southern Dynasty naval troops already so terrifying? They can actually praise the expeditions of thousands of miles across the ocean, conquering many city-states and vassal states in one year!" An Tong took a deep breath after hearing this. He had been for the prime minister for more than 20 years, so he naturally knew how much they had paid for the development of maritime trade, but he was unable to expedition to the West. Even when he conquered Japan twice, he had lost more than 200,000 troops and generals. Thousands of warships went but did not return, which greatly damaged their naval troops.

"I heard what the envoy of Ogedei who came to Taiyuan to collect taxes and then learned, and then the merchants passed by the border, so I had to believe it!" He Weixian sighed and said, "And this is exactly what I am worried about. Tens of thousands of naval troops in the Southern Dynasty can go for a thousand miles of expedition, so I can send navigators across the sea from Qingzhou and enter the hinterland of the capital. Qingzhou is only one day away from Dadu, which means that the Southern Army is fully capable of bypassing the natural danger of the Yellow River, and you don't have to attack the important towns along the way to reach the Dadu city."

"Hiss..." After hearing this, everyone in the hall took a breath and their hands and feet were cold. At present, most of their troops were arranged in Shandong, Henan, and the capital area. However, if the Southern Dynasty attacked across the sea, the troops would have entered the city of Dadu before they could even arrive. If the front line of the sect king's guards returned to the rescue, the Southern Dynasty army that confronted them would take advantage of the situation like a tide and chase and annihilate the army that had lost the shelter of the city, and they could not imagine the consequences.

"Even if the Southern Dynasty had such ability, the capital was profound. Even if the surrounding troops did not have time to arrive, there were still less than 50,000 soldiers in the city. It was almost impossible for them to conquer the city in a short period of time. As long as they could hold on to the city for a month, the king-supporting troops everywhere could arrive one after another. Instead, they were alone in the siege and faced the end of being surrounded and annihilated." After a moment of silence, Li Siyan said.

"Haha, although Li Xiang was from the Southern Dynasty, he had no idea about the combat power of the Southern Army at all." He Weixian chuckled and shook his head, "The last time the Southern Dynasty invaded Shouzhou, we all knew that Shouzhou was the place of four battles. The city was operated for thousands of years, steep and majestic, deep and high in trenches, and never been captured head-on.

"But after the Southern Army failed to attack this city and persuaded surrender, they bombarded the city with artillery for a day and night. The next day, the city was trapped, and the whole city was completely damaged. There were only tens of thousands of soldiers and people living in the city. The dead bodies were like mountains, and even the city gates were blocked. There were almost no casualties in the Southern Army in this battle. When they heard that the Shouzhou City was trapped, almost no one believed it. Then it was found that the Southern Army was only dispatched by one army. They had only more than a hundred artillery gates, which could occupy the Xiongcheng. There were tens of thousands of elite troops inside and reinforcements outside, but they still failed to persevere in a few days and the city was destroyed and the people were killed."

The people in the hall fell silent again. If the Southern Army really had such terrifying combat power and came across the sea to attack the capital. Now the capabilities of the Southern Dynasty naval army and the large number of merchant ships it possessed were not difficult to carry tens of thousands of infantry. As long as they strive to break through the city before the reinforcements around arrived and defended the city, the situation would reverse.
