Chapter 19 Jianghu People

"Do you know that based on your words, even if you die ten times, you will not be unjust at all."

Zheng Fan sat in silence, not deliberately showing any panic.

Without that political sensitivity and understanding of Marquis Jingnan, Zheng Chengshou would not dare to dance on the tip of a knife.

Dayan and the Situ family maintained peace in a tacit understanding. From a noble point of view, it was because the Yan State respected the Situ family and specifically raised a hand to defend the Great Xia kingdoms from the invasion of barbarians.

If this is not the reason, it can only be that someone among the three giants has a physical problem, and when this person has a physical problem, it will directly affect the country's decision-making.

The only one left is,

Your Majesty.

Tian Wujing seemed to just stop there and had no intention of continuing to delve deeper into this topic. Instead, he said:

"What do you think of the situation in Jin at this time?" ?”

Zheng Fan immediately replied:

“Master Hou, the land of Sanjin should be extremely chaotic. It will take a lot of time for me, Dayan, to completely digest it. and energy, but the establishment of the Dacheng Kingdom of the Situ family has helped us divide the three Jins.

This time the three Jins are in turmoil, and many powerful powers have emerged, which seems to be a wildfire. The power of starting a prairie fire is all false fire. Even if our army watches the fire from the other side, it will be extinguished as it burns, and we can once and for all pull out these disloyal people who are disobedient to discipline."

"Just looking at it won't do."

"Yes, what the Marquis said is true. What the general means is to look at it first, and then start putting out the fire when it reaches its peak. It doesn't take too long." Use your strength, after all, no matter how weak the fire is, it won't hurt if you accidentally burn your hand.

Slowly attack, slowly drive away, slowly draw out, and eventually, these flames will naturally be involved in the Situ family. " < /p>

The reason why the powerful families here can create such momentum is very similar to the powerful families in Dayan back then. They just rely on the popularity of the people on the ground, and once they leave When you leave your homeland and go to a new one, you will become a refugee just like a fish leaving the water. Not only will you lose your previous arrogance, but you will become a burden and burden."

"Your view is indeed true. Not bad."

"The Lord is so impressed."

"It's Huainan County and Huaibei County, or is it the Huai River? Where is it? I have never heard of it?”

“…………” Zheng Fan.

“That’s it, let’s not think about this anymore.”

Tian Wujing stood up, and Zheng Fan quickly followed suit.

"Zheng Chengshou."

"Master Hou, I will be here at the end."

"From the time you left Cuiliu Fort to where we are now. "Have you ever regretted it?"

"I regretted it so much"

"Ha."

"The general is also greedy, thinking that since he is going to Jin to take up his post, he should establish a good relationship with the Emperor of Jin first, so that he can be taken care of no matter what happens in the future. Who knows... ..."

"Zheng Chengshou, you are sure that I will not blame you, so you are so open-minded to me?"

As a Yan general, He actually thought about secretly communicating with Jin Emperor about the music in advance, which is simply a shameful thing.

"You are not used to it, Lord Marquis."

Zheng Chengshou borrowed a stick to climb up.

"You are a talented person, so I will pamper you."

"Yes, a good bird chooses a tree to live in. Under the hands of the Marquis, my heart will be bright and happy." "

"But I have something to remind you."

"Please give me some advice!"

"You are Yan. "Yes!"

"You are a general, aren't you?"

" Has Yan ever failed you?"

"Never!"

"If Dayan fails to let you down..."

"I will never let Dayan down. ! Live up to the Marquis!"

"Remember the first half of your sentence."

I will keep it in my heart."

Jingnan Hou looked calm. I looked out the window, it was night, and it started to rain outside.

At this time, in the southern part of Qian Kingdom, winter has passed, and the breath of spring is already very strong. However, Jin and Yan Kingdom are both located in the north, so this winter will naturally be longer.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable that the literary style is not prosperous in the land of Yan and Jin. There are four seasons throughout the year, and winter is the longest. Unlike the Qian Kingdom, most places have four distinct seasons.

If you cannot see enough spring flowers and autumn moon, you will naturally not be able to raise a real poet.

But sometimes, living too comfortably can easily make one's bones soft.

Jingnan Hou raised his hand and said:

"Zheng Cheng is obeying the order!"

Zheng Fan immediately knelt down Kneel down and say in a sincere voice:

"The general is here!"

"Please gather your troops quickly and draw a thousand fine cavalry. At the right time, follow the instructions." "Your Majesty."

"I will obey the order!"

After receiving the order, Zheng Fan stood up and asked with a shy face:

"Master Hou." , Who are you going to fight?”

“Whoever just hit you, who are we going to fight now?”

With the establishment of the Dacheng Kingdom, the only army in the Three Jins that can be temporarily called the Jin Army is actually the Yu family's troops in the capital.

After all, Yu Huacheng has not been canonized by the Dacheng Kingdom. In name, he and his subordinates still belong to the Jin army, even though they were preparing to put the butcher knife on the neck of their emperor two days ago.

“How to stabilize the situation in the three Jin Dynasties, the people in the court have their own considerations, but I also have my own principles.Hou's thinking, you can listen to what the people in the court say, but don't affect your own work. "

"Then they were earlier..."

"They retreated not because of my reputation, Tian Wujing, but because they did not dare to attack me at this time for fear of offending me. Yan;

I am standing in front of them. They themselves do not dare to kill me. Do I still want to thank them for not killing me?

This place is already Yan soil.

How can they come and fight and leave when they want?

Zheng Chengshou, I admire you very much, but there is one thing I feel you lack. As a military general, you must have wolf nature. You can retreat temporarily, but retreating is not to save yourself, but to retreat. Seeking an opportunity to bite the opponent's neck off. "

"I will eventually be taught. ”

Zheng Fan felt that Tian Wujing’s words today were a bit too much, and he obviously wanted to mention something about himself.

However, since Tian Wujing said that he would send troops, then Zheng Fan Fan naturally sent troops. After resigning, Zheng Fan immediately called the blind man and Liang Cheng to arrange the work.

When he was waiting for his son, Jingnan Hou, wearing gilt armor, rode to rest. After passing by, Pixiu left the Wubao, followed by more than a thousand knights.

The moon was dark and the wind was high,

Thousands of knights rolled up the mountain.

When this group of troops arrived at the gate of Xinsu City, the two flag-carrying knights brought by Jingnan Marquis took the initiative.

After a while,

The gate of Xinsu City was reached. Opening it from the inside, a general soldier rode out, passed the crowd directly to Tian Wujing, saluted on the horse and said: "See you, Lord Marquis!" "

"Leave one to watch the city, and the rest to join the battle. "

"I will obey your orders! "

The Jingnan Army is a military force built by Tian Wujing himself. Not to mention that Tian Wujing is the top talker in the newly promoted Yan Kingdom at this time. Even if he is nothing, He can still easily mobilize the Jingnan Army here to obey his military orders.

Whether it is the Zhenbei Army or the Jingnan Army, they only know the Marquis but not the Majesty.

Only Emperor Yan could accept or even take the initiative to promote this situation. If it were any other emperor, as long as he had the ability, he would definitely be thinking about cutting down the feudal vassal and "releasing military power over a glass of wine"

It was used to deal with an army. For a medium-sized battle, five thousand cavalry is actually enough.

The troops and horses have been reorganized. Jingnan Marquis is very particular about conditioning, and he likes to peel off the chaos and complexity of the battlefield to find out the details. When it was time to disintegrate or defeat the enemy,

Zheng Fan's troops were temporarily integrated into this army, and Zheng Fan himself followed Jingnan Hou.

The sentries were not released. After marching eastward for dozens of miles, they all dismounted and rested under the order of Marquis Jingnan.

Zheng Fan knew that this was to build up horsepower and restore both people and horses to the best condition.

Tian Wujing leaned against his Pixiu. The Pixiu was also very considerate and took the initiative to lie down for support.

This made Zheng Fan jealous, thinking that he would capture a psychic beast as a mount in the future.

In fact, if things develop according to the previous plan, after becoming the city guard of Shengle City, I will definitely search for resources in the nearby Tianduan Mountains, and monsters are inherently rare and The precious "hard currency" is not only very popular among Eastern aristocrats, but is also expensive when sold to the West.

But the plan could never keep up with the changes. First, after returning from the battle to the south, Xu Wenzu did not replenish his troops and horses, and then there was another two-day battle to defend the city;

As you can imagine , the incoming cavalry rushed into the formation, and several layers of the belongings under his hands had to be cut off.

This damn thing is such a waste of money.

But Zheng Fan couldn't show any dissatisfaction on his face. Instead, he had to pretend to be very calm.

Tian Wujing, who was resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zheng Fan, and said:

"Don't be so petty."

Zheng Fan He showed a fan Li-style silly smile.

"As long as you can break into the imperial palace in the capital of Jin State, the wealth inside will be enough for you to make up for this shortfall."

Zheng Fan did not I didn't expect that the Marquis of Jingnan would actually say this to me. Property must be the most important thing for a warlord. Although there are a lot of property looted from Chuzhou City hidden in Prince Fu's tomb, because of his Bian hasn't settled down yet, so he hasn't been able to arrange for someone to secretly transport him.

Taking a step back,

How can the wealth in the Jin Palace be compared to that of Chuzhou City?

Even though the Yu family has always claimed that their life was difficult, there were even rumors that after the Helian family was destroyed, the Jin emperor spent all his money to recruit defeated soldiers.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The majestic Jin Dynasty Imperial Palace has not been looted for hundreds of years. The sediment inside is absolutely astonishing.

Although it takes time to realize wealth, and it also takes time to recruit troops, facts have proven time and time again that if you are poor, then your time is basically worthless.

“After that battle, many defeated soldiers hid in the countryside. At the same time, the local powerful families could also use their wealth to win over them. Don’t you like to use barbarians? The savage settlements in the Tianduan Mountains can also be used. Use your wealth to buy the service of the warriors in your clan."

"Thank you...Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your guidance."

"You can do these things without my guidance. Yes, you have five thousand soldiers and horses under your command, and your men will account for 20%, and the wealth will be divided., you can take 20%. "

"The Marquis is very kind and merciful, the last general..."

"Okay, I don't like to listen to your nonsense. ”

Jingnan Hou raised his head, glanced at the night sky again, stood up, and Pixiu behind him also stood up slowly. It was like a silent horn, like a wave effect. The resting knights stood up one after another.

There was no shouting, no noise, and no slogans.

When everyone got on their horses,

Jingnan Hou’s arms. With a wave,

In an instant,

The horse is as iron as thunder!

In fact, Jingnan Marquis does not have rich war experience. Throughout the ages, some generals need to learn from it! In order to become a general, you have to learn from experience and lessons from war after war, but some people seem to be gifted by heaven.

The Jingnan Army has been in Yinlang County for more than ten years. , He has never fought any serious battles, but the first battle in his life was to use the road to open up Jin, and win half of Jin's territory for Dayan in one fell swoop.

However. , as the army galloped, one after another guerrilla generals came to Jingnanhou to receive orders, and then led their subordinates to leave the formation and go in other directions.

This made Zheng Fan understand, Jingnan. Nanhou seemed to be very familiar with the Jin capital's territory.

The troops were divided into groups, ranging from two hundred to thousands. When they arrived at the outskirts of the capital, Zheng Fan arrived. There are only three hundred horses left beside Marquis Jingnan.

Every troop has its own target to attack, including where to enter the capital and subsequent arrangements for Marquis Jingnan. I also gave the order.

This is a completely different fighting style from the Zhenbei Army. When Li Fusheng went into battle, he rushed to the front, and the other departments also cooperated to kill the enemy based on the tacit understanding in the past. , and Marquis Jingnan here distributes tasks and details to the extreme.

It seems that the land of Gyeonggi under the night is nothing more than a chessboard placed in front of him. Just make all the moves and finally slay the dragon quietly.

According to Zheng Fan's aesthetics, this is the real art of war. It's not like the Zhenbei Army, which just relies on "strong soldiers and strong horses" to bully. You.

Of course, if you have a strong army and strong horses and the command and deployment of Marquis Jingnan, it is no wonder that the two major clans can be directly destroyed in the first battle.

In the end. ,

Jingnan Hou looked at Zheng Fan,

ordered:

"Zheng Chengshou, after your unit has been wandering around here for an hour, Go straight to the Jin Palace! ”

It was clear that he wanted to hand over these three hundred knights, including the two flag-carrying knights who had accompanied him all the way from Litian City.

Zheng Fan felt a little panicked. ,

If I had known this, why didn’t I take Liang Cheng with me?

This feeling is like a novice driver who just got his license from the driving school. Just driveSame as on the road.

So much so that Zheng Fan only belatedly remembered to ask Jingnan Hou:

"Master Hou, what about you?"

Tian Wujing was sitting there On Pi Xiu, he reached out and grabbed the golden soft velvet on Pi Xiu's neck,

said:

"I am now a man of the world."
