Chapter 509 Qin Wen’s journey to Jia Yu’s south
Chapter 508: Qin Wen’s journey to Jia Yu in the north
After hearing what Xi Zhicai said, Qin Wen''s face suddenly became serious.
The Hetao Plain is suitable for cavalry combat, and the three central and northern counties are included in Hetao. There are only Yinshan and one place that can be defended between the two.
Therefore, as long as the Jin army does not completely occupy Hetao, the three counties in the north and central areas will be exposed to the Huns'' iron cavalry, and the Huns'' iron cavalry will come and go as soon as they want.
Since the war between the Jin army and the Xiongnu was basically won repeatedly, the generals of the Jin army were generally arrogant and believed that the Xiongnu were just like this. Some people even believed that the Xiongnu had been beaten and did not dare to easily invade Bingzhou again.
Such emotions were widely spread in the Jin army. Even Qin Wen had such thoughts in his heart, but Xi Zhicai, as a military advisor, was very sober.
Xi Zhicai understood in his heart that the Huns and Jin army were as deep as the sea of ??enemies, and it was impossible for them to coexist. The reason why they did not invade before was that their strength had not yet recovered, so they were licking their wounds.
Now Temujin has unified the northern Mobei, and his overall strength is even better than the past. If he was annexing the Xianbei, then the three counties in the north and the north would not have been able to defend it.
The three counties in the north and central areas finally developed, how could they all make wedding dresses for the Huns? So even in order to protect the three counties in the north and north, Hetao must be captured!
As soon as he thought of this, Qin Wenhu''s eyes glanced at the generals for a week and said in a deep voice: "The military advisor is right. If we don''t have Yinshan for one day, our army will not be able to be peaceful. This time, we will be selling things. Even if the Huns return to help, our army must seize Hetao."
What Xi Zhicai and Qin Wen said clearly enough, and the civil officials could certainly understand the seriousness of the problem, so naturally they would not object to sending troops.
The nature of seizing Hetao has changed now.
Previously, it was to check and balance the Huns and prevent the Huns from expanding their strength too much.
Now, it is to protect the development achievements of Bingzhou over the past year and make the situation of the Jin army safer.
Different purposes will naturally produce different results.
The Jin army must seize Hetao and establish a checkpoint in Yinshan. Otherwise, when the Huns invade in the future, they will only have to fight against the Huns, which is extremely unfavorable to any army in the world.
Sima Fang thought for a moment and stood up seriously and said, "Lord, if you must fight, your subordinates think that you can temporarily increase the tax and explain it to the people clearly. I believe that the people of the five northern counties will understand and support our army."
Xi Zhicai also stood up at this time and added: "There is another point that the battle with the Xiongnu is not just a matter of our Jin army, but to protect the safety of the entire Bingzhou."
Qin Wen was stunned and hesitated, "What does military advisor mean?"
"The lord is the governor of Bingzhou. He can completely order the prefects of the other four counties of Bingzhou to lead the troops to go to war with our army, so that we can share some of the pressure for our army."
The prefects of the other four counties are Wang Shichong, Wang Kuang, Zhang Yang and Zhang Chao. These four people are nominally subordinates of Qin Wen, the governor of the prefecture, and actually dominate the same side as Qin Wen, so Qin Wen was not sure that they could obey their orders.
"Will they send troops to help our army?" Qin Wen
A sneer flashed across the corner of Xi Zhicai''s mouth, and then nodded affirmatively and replied, "Yes!"
Then Xi Zhi came to Qin Wen''s ear and whispered something. After hearing this, Qin Wen suddenly burst into laughter and joked, "Military advisor, there is so much bad water in your stomach."
Xi Zhicai also smiled and said, "My lord is a mistake."
Qin Wen nodded, and then ordered the generals seriously: "This battle is crucial, so I decided to lead the army to fight and mobilize 40,000 cavalry, 30,000 infantry, a total of 70,000 troops. Who is the first..."
Zhao Yun had been waiting for a long time. Before Qin Wen could finish speaking, Zhao Yun quickly stood up and said, "The last general was originally a pioneer, and he vowed to wipe out the alien race for the lord."
Seeing this, Qin Qiong and others all secretly scolded Zhao Yun for being cunning in their hearts. Every time there is a war, Zhao Yun is the first to fight. Can’t we leave some soup for us?
The generals who were already 10% behind also stood up to fight, but Qin Wen''s eyes still fell on Zhao Yun.
"Okay, Zilong''s words are deeply loved by me, and I will leave the position of pioneer to you this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Wen seemed to remember something and added: "If Zilong can make great contributions in this battle, the day when the army wins and returns will be when you and Suzhen get married."
Zhao Yun was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you lord for your fulfillment, Zhao Yun will be repaid for his death."
Qin Liangyu, who was standing next to Qin Wen, had already blushed with shame at this time.
All the generals couldn''t help but sigh when they saw this scene, Brother Zilong, your life is so good!
Qin Liangyu is now twenty-one years old, but she still hasn''t married. She is already an old girl in this era.
As a father, Qin Wen was naturally very anxious, so he simply took this opportunity to match the two of them. Anyway, he was quite satisfied with Zhao Yun.
After Jia Yu learned about her husband''s decision, he also happily agreed.
Through this period of investigation, Jia Yu was also extremely satisfied with Zhao Yun, believing that although Zhao Yun came from a poor family, he was outstanding in both character and ability and was completely worthy of her daughter.
Of course, the most important thing is that Jia Yu doesn’t want to drag her daughter’s marriage any longer.
"You are satisfied now? If you hadn''t been to your objection at the beginning, you might have even a grandson." Qin Wen complained to Jia Yu, who was tidying up his clothes.
Jia Yu immediately gave Qin Wen a blank look and said softly, "Husband, if you support me, why didn''t you stand up? If you spoke, how could I object?"
"Uh..." Qin Wen was immediately choked by his wife and couldn''t speak, so he had to smile dryly, "Yes, it''s all for his husband, it''s not. Whatever the wife does is right."
"This is almost the same." Jia Yu smiled indifferently, then frowned and said, "Husband, can''t you leave this battle to the Fourth Uncle? Why do you have to go to the battle in person? Your body..."
A trace of sadness flashed in Qin Wen''s eyes, he put his hand on his wife''s shoulder, and said seriously: "I promise my wife that I will definitely be well-educated after this battle and will never lead the army to fight in person."
Qin Wen knew his physical condition, but at the same time he was also a general who had been fighting for decades. He was really unwilling to withdraw from the battlefield in such a cowardly manner.
Qin Wen has regarded the Battle of Hetao as the last battle in his lifetime, so he must lead the army himself.
Jia Yu sighed and said with a resentful look on his face: "I know I can''t stop you, but I hope you can keep your promise."
"Okay, I won''t mention this." Qin Wen quickly changed the topic and asked, "Are you ready for the trip south this time?"
"Well, after my husband goes to war, I will immediately lead the caravan to the south."
"The caravan moved south, and there were many things to do, and Mrs. Lau is here."
?I wish you a happy New Year’s Day in 2018. This book will definitely become more and more exciting. I hope the general can continue to support it!
