The 453th is dead

Other Wu State Chambers of Commerce are not so easy to speak.

In 1612, the trade conflict between Fan Wu and the Republic of Shandong and Henan became more and more fierce, and soon formally declared war with each other and competed for control of the sea.

Unexpectedly, the Wu Fan Navy, which was rampant around the world, did not easily defeat the Navy of the Republic of Luyu.

Wu Fan's navy has strong single-ship combat capabilities and many excellent sailors, while the advantage of the Luyu Republic lies in its terrible war potential. Shandong Province and Henan Province are both populous provinces. Coupled with an industrial base that is not weaker than that of Wu, the Republic of Shandong and Henan can always quickly replenish its combat power in the first place, thereby gaining some weak strategic advantages. After three years of frequent naval battles, the human resources and industrial advantages of the Republic of Shandong and Yu gradually came into play, and Wu Fan was further and further away from victory.

In 1614, Wu Fan was forced to sign a peace agreement with the Luyu Republic, allowing the Luyu Republic to freely formulate trade protection policies, and recognizing that the Luyu Republic enjoyed the same trading rights as Wu Fan in the world.

In terms of results, Wu Fan obviously lost a game.

Neither Mao Jiuzhong nor the Jinan Covenant changed the status quo of Zhu Xia's melee.

Just after the Jinan Covenant forced the end of the decades-long Yue-Wu War, the Republic of Shandong and Yu took the place of Yue and began to hostile to Wu. When the Luyu Republic and Wu Fan signed a peace agreement, Wei Fan suddenly began to provoke a new war. The people of the Wei Xia Empire could not even expect peace for a moment.

In 1613, the Wenxiang Sect rebellion broke out in the Wei Fan Jizhou Mansion. When the officers and soldiers caught the insurgents, part of the Wenxiang Sect high-level fled to the territory of Zhao Fan. Mao Shangbing, the third son of Mao Jiuzhong, Duke of Wei Fan, accused the Wenxiang Rebellion of being instigated by Zhao Fan, and ordered King Zhao Fan to hand over the high-level Wenxiangjiao within March. However, Zhao Fan denied any connection with the Scenting Sect, and was unable to hand over the so-called Scented Scenting Sect.

The Jinan Covenant in 1608 stipulated that because the former King of Zhao Fan Wei Shunzong had died in 1604, Wei Shenglie, the son of Wei Shunzong, was replaced as King of Zhao Fan. Wei Shenglie is a puppet supported by Mao Jiuzhong, but as a monarch, who is willing to be a puppet? After Mao Jiuzhong went to victory over the Mongolian domain, Wei Shenglie immediately sought friendship from the imperial family, the Jin Kingdom, the Luyu Republic and other neighbors, and gradually moved away from Wei Fan. The reason why Mao Shang, Duke of Wei Fan, blamed Zhao Fan, was to force Zhao Fan to rejoin Wei Fan's camp.

In 1614, Wei Shenglie passed away and his son Wei Junxi succeeded Zhao Fan. Looking back at the previous kings of Zhao Fan, Wei Shunzong was driven out of the country by the nobles. Wei Shenglie only dared to return to Zhao Fan under the protection of Mao Jiuzhong's army. The influence of the royal family in Zhao Fan can be imagined. Even if there is no foreign power to watch, Wei Junxi will have to spend countless energy to maintain the stability of the government.

Mao Shang did not give Wei Junxi time to rectify, and quickly declared war on Zhao State under the pretext of smelling incense.

In other words, in order to prevent the rejuvenation of the Zhao Kingdom and curb the invasion of Wei Guonan, Mao Jiuzhong had a strong attitude to support the three Earls of Hejian, Earl of Baoding, and Earl of Zhending in the territory of Zhao. As a result, the actual controlled territory of the Zhao royal family was only Shunde Mansion and Guangzhou. Pingfu, Damingfu and other three provinces. Moreover, the areas of Shunde Mansion, Quang Binh Mansion and Daming Mansion are relatively small, and together they are barely bigger than one of the three earls. With Mao Jiuzhong's archway, who would dare to underestimate Wei Fan's Duke Mao Shangmei? The three major earls, including the Earl of Hejian, the Earl of Baoding, and the Earl of Zhending, all regarded Mao Shangbing's declaration of war as the will of Mao Jiuzhong and mixed with one Kyushu.

When Mao Shangbing easily captured Handan, the new capital of Zhao Fan, the situation in North China became more treacherous and changeable.

The Central Plains vassal states did not dare to recklessly set up a third siege net to rescue Zhao Fan.

Because of Mao Jiuzhong.

Mao Jiuzhong defeated the first anti-Wei encirclement net and the second anti-Wei encirclement net with majestic power, so that the Central Plains vassals did not dare to talk about war. In case Mao Jiuzhong is provoked, no matter whether it can be tied in the end, the trouble must be far greater than Zhao Fan's belonging. As a result, more than a dozen vassal kingdoms sat awkwardly watching Mao Shang and leaping horses and whips, and his heart-wrenching voice said with emotion: "The tiger father has no dogs, and this Mao Shang is probably also a major disaster in Kyushu!"

War is the most fierce game method. If you retreat, the enemy's fire will definitely be more vigorous.

Seeing the imperial family doing nothing, Yan, Jin, Zhou, Tang and other vassals were forced by Mao Jiuzhong’s prestige and Wei Fan’s military pressure to stand in the Wei Fan camp, and successively declared war on Zhao Fan and demanded that the King Zhao Fan hand over the senior officials of Scenting Sect. In view of the fact that the Republic of Luyu was also Mao Jiuzhong's protectorate, all the northern vassals had already obeyed the new order of the Wei vassal, and there was not much loyalty to the royal family.

Kyushu moved towards it, and suddenly it cast a shadow.

Unexpectedly, when the Central Plains states were preparing to sacrifice Zhao Guo tacitly, and when discussing whether the Mao family could usurp the Xia, the variables became steep.

In other words, since Wei Shunzong's centralization of power failed to flee alone, Zhao Fan has been in chaos year after year, and the grassroots want to be a year old but cannot get it. The earlier aristocratic melee was nothing more than civil strife, and everyone's purpose of fighting was to grab territory, and seldom took the initiative to destroy the local people's livelihood. In the recent years of military disasters, the soldiers of the Dafan gathered in the territory of the Zhaofan again and again. These guest soldiers did not understand the thoughts of the people of the Zhaofan, and all kinds of bad things were a big push. Thinking that the cause of the military disasters in recent years was Mao's ambition to fight for hegemony, the people of Zhao Fan regarded Wei Fan led by Mao Jiuzhong as war mongers. First, Mao Jiuzhong and Mao Shang and his father and son were ambitious. In all this, the people of Zhao Fan became more and more hostile to Wei Fan, and they took the initiative to organize the rebels to attack Wei Fan invaders.

Despite Zhao Fan’s repeated defeats on the frontal battlefield, the rebels in various places were able to benefit the people in time and place and constantly win small victories, which indirectly caused Wei to fall into the vast ocean of the people of Zhao Fan. Moreover, the imperial family and the Republic of Shandong and Henan are all eager to weaken the Wei state, and generously support the Zhao Fan Rebel army with sufficient firecrackers, artillery and other military materials, hoping that they can curb the invasion of Wei Fan soldiers and indirectly greatly enhance the Zhao Fan Rebel army's combat effectiveness.

However, the rebels were just rebels after all. Perhaps the Volunteers are really capable of accomplishing things, but the superior nobles are not necessarily willing to recognize the role of the Volunteers. Although the Zhao Fanyi army effectively blocked the advancement of Wei Fan, the ruling class of the Luyu Republic and other vassal states have been worried and watched Mao Jiuzhong's movements closely, lest Mao Jiuzhong suddenly killed him in the territory of Zhao Fan.

Until...

On April 5, 1617, Mao Jiuzhong passed away at the age of 67.

Except for some small setbacks when he first stepped on the battlefield in the early days, Mao Jiuzhong's life, Liao's undefeated achievements, was the well-deserved resurrection of the God of War.

Unfortunately, Mao Jiuzhong ultimately failed.

Mao Jiuzhong lost to time.

What defeated Mao Jiuzhong was the lifespan, the relentless years, and the quiet passing of time.

If Mao Jiuzhong can live forever, there is a probability that the Wei Xia Empire will be overthrown by him.

Unfortunately, Mao Jiuzhong died.

When the news of Mao Jiuzhong's death came, the vassal states of the Central Plains were full of joy. Both the royal family and the Luyu Republic let out a sigh of relief: "This old thief is finally dead!"

The international situation was violently turbulent.

The legacy of Mao Jiuzhong's Victory Domain was divided into three in just three years.

The division of the Victory Meng vassal state is in the interests of the Central Plains vassal states. In order to encourage Mao's nine loyalists to fight for power and gain, the royal family even generously met all their wishes. Mao Shangwen, the eldest son of Mao Jiuzhong, inherited the territory of the Russian Empire, because Russia was transliterated into the Raksha Kingdom through Mongolian transliteration, and the royal family hid the word "cha", and Jin appointed Mao Shangwen as Luo Fanguo.

In other words, the Wei Xia enfeoffment empire has a set of unwritten unwritten rules. The inner Kyushu domains are all single characters, such as Yan, Zhao, Wei, Jin, Zhou, Tang, Han, Ming, Lu, Wu, Wei, Yue, etc.; outside Kyushu The vassal states are double characters, such as Lelang, Jiaozhi, Starfish, Luzon, Borneo, Shunta, and Buddha Qi. Mao Jiuzhong and his victory over the Mongolian domain were the confidant of the Wei Xia Dynasty. In order to dismember Mao Jiuzhong's legacy as quickly as possible, the royal family hurriedly agreed to make Mao Shangwen a faculty member, regardless of the double-character tradition of the Kyushu domain.

Mao Jiuzhong's second son, Mao Shangwu, inherited the territory of the Persian Empire.

Mao Shangyong, the fourth son of Mao Jiuzhong, inherited the territory of the Kazakh Khanate, Khiva Khanate, and Bukhara Khanate.

Because the territory of Mao Shangwu and Mao Jiuzhong was within the scope of the power of the Central Plains vassal states, the two had to respect the traditions of the outer Kyushu vassal states. Mao Shangyong continued the title of Duke of Shengmeng, and Mao Shangwu was named Duke of Peace. In this way, Mao Shangwen's Luo Fan, Mao Shangwu's Anxi Fan, and Mao Shangyong's Shengmeng Fan became part of the entrusted empire of Wei Xia. The number of vassal states under the name of the Wei Xia Empire also reached an unprecedented number of twenty-three vassals.

The turbulence brought about by the death of Mao Jiuzhong in northern China is even more intense.

The Tang Fan, Zhou Fan, Jin Fan, Yan Fan and other countries who originally stood in line with Wei Fan quickly changed their tune to support Zhao Fan and declared war on Wei Fan under various excuses. Take Yan Fan as an example. The King Yan originally assembled 10,000 foot cavalry to support Wei Fan. When the news of Mao Jiuzhong's death came, this 10,000 foot cavalry immediately became Yan Fan’s advance army to regain western Liaoning.

The great situation in which Wei Fan ruled North China disappeared instantly without a trace.

Mao Shang didn't want to cry for a while.

Mao Jiuzhong has four characters, the eldest son is named Wen, the second son is Wu, the three sons are combined, and the four-character names are used together. Mao Jiuzhong hoped that his heirs would keep in mind the use of civil and military forces and unite to complete his last aspirations. However, his ideals and ambitions would die with his death.

In all fairness, Mao Shang is not stupid, even he deserves the evaluation of "the tiger father has no dogs".

In the face of the sudden and evil situation of enemies all over the world, Mao Shang did not calmly retreat from the quagmire of Zhao Fan, and then defeated Tang Fan, Zhou Fan, Jin Fan, and Yan Fan one by one from the left and right, and even forced the weakest. Zhou Fan ceded Yulin Mansion to Wei Fan. Although Mao Shang did not lack Mao Jiuzhong's aura to block and kill the gods, he was clearly an outstanding general and could vaguely see the shadow of Mao Jiuzhong. All in all, even though he had to withdraw from Zhao Fan in the end, Mao Shangbing perfectly preserved Wei Fan's inherent territory, and Yan Fan and other neighboring countries were not able to make money from him.

Unfortunately, Mao Shangbing's achievements stop here.

After all, Mao Shang is not Mao Jiuzhong, at best he can praise him as a gentleman.
