Xian Dynasty Era

Chapter 464
In the hall——

When the second general was ordered to leave to reorganize the army, only Su Zhao and Shentu Fan were left in the official hall.

Su Zhao asked: "Qing Shentu, I want to send troops to Gu'an County alone to join Wu Shou's guards and confront the rebels from the Jin army and Weipan counties. You still need to take care of the garrison of the counties. .”

The counties around Zongying were originally under the rule of Guliang County, while Baiwu and other counties were under the rule of Gu'an County.

Since Su Zhao wants to lead his army to join forces with the Wushou Department of Gu'an County, waiting for the opportunity of a decisive battle, at the same time gather and deter the generals of the Wei Kingdom, and then stay in Zongying County, it is a bit inappropriate.

However, the general who stays behind also needs to consider.

After all, even if the Jin army has no spare power to penetrate and open the middle door wide, there is no guarantee that Zhao Jian will not repeat the same trick.

Shentu Fan nodded, and said in a clear voice: "It is the right thing for you to go to Gu'an County, and I will let people take over the counties."

Up to now, whether it is the Jin army and the rebels from the four counties of the Wei State, or the left general Wei Fu of the Jin State in the north, the focus of the competition is on Gu'an County.

The most important thing is that at this moment, there are [-] Soviet troops stationed in Guliang County. Shentu Fan sent his generals to take over the counties and sort out the counties and townships.

Of course, on this point, both the monarch and his ministers are tacit.

Afterwards, Su Zhao's military relationship with Shentu Fan was mainly based on speculation about the use of troops by the central government of the Jin Kingdom.

Shen Tufan's judgment was that it was unlikely that the Jin State would reinforce the troops.

Of course, this was just Shentu Fan's guess.

First, it was winter and the weather was severe. The Jin army wanted to send more troops, and the logistical pressure it faced was almost conceivable.

At the same time, at the end of the year, the soldiers of the state of Jin had to work hard for many years, and they still had to reinforce the defeated soldiers.

Second, Zhao Jian wins first and then loses, and loses troops and loses generals. There will be some criticisms in the court of Jin Dynasty.

Third, although the Jin State has a large number of soldiers, its territory is vast, and it is not easy to mobilize a large army in a hurry.

"From the point of view of my ministers, the Jin army would not increase their troops to help each other years ago." Shentu Fan said in a deep voice.

Although not [-]% sure, but the analysis is well-founded, and Su Zhao can't help feeling convinced.

Originally, the situation that was only felt as a cloud of fog showed a clear face.

"So, Shen Tuqing, why do you strongly suggest that Gu send a cavalry to harass the Jin army's grain road?" Su Zhao's face moved slightly, and a little bit of understanding flashed in his heart.

"Even if the Jin Kingdom sends reinforcements, it will take at least until the beginning of next spring. During this period of time, it is an opportunity to defeat the Jin army. No matter what, as long as the Jin army is weakened by a third, the monarch can wait for the opportunity to fight against it... However, my minister I think, I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for the spring of the next year, even if it's half a month, with Zhao Jian's wisdom, we will ask for orders to withdraw the troops."

Su Zhao looked silent, thought for a while, and said, "It's probably so."

And when the two monarchs and ministers were discussing the next move of the Jin army——

Five miles southwest of Gu'an County, the camp of the Jin Army's Central Army.

Under the rescue of the Immortal Master of Heart Demon Sect, Zhao Jian had already woken up, but his face was pale and listless.

After such a long time of managing military affairs, exhausting his mind and mind, and encountering bad news, he finally exhausted this young and vigorous soldier of the state of Jin.

"Mr. Zhao, you are awake." At this moment, in the spacious military tent, a group of advanced generals gathered, and they all looked worriedly at Zhao Jian who was covered with a thick quilt on the bed.

"Oh...it's my fault." Zhao Jian looked around at the generals and sighed, his face full of self-blame.

"Mr. Zhao, it's not your mistake. Even if you rush to help, it's too late to save the clan's army." At this time, a Jin general comforted him.

"That's right... Who would have thought that the Zongying City would be destroyed in less than two days." At this time, a Jin general also spoke in relief.

Amidst the consolation voices of the Jin generals, suddenly, a school lieutenant walked into the tent through the curtain, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. one sight?"

Zhao Jian waved his hand and said, "Let's just say that the old man is fine, so that Mr. Wei doesn't have to worry. Tonight, I will invite Mr. Wei to a banquet at the camp of the Chinese Army to discuss the military situation. I also asked the envoy to bring the message to me."

The school lieutenant made a promise and took the order.

At this moment, a middle-aged general with a beard and black face said in a low voice, "Da Sima Zhao, how should our army advance now?"

Zhao Jian said: "General Sun, there is no need to worry. This commander has already sent a letter to Yidu to ask for help. In fact, even if we don't ask for help from the middle of the country, with the strength of our army, together with the Northern Division, there are still [-] to [-] troops. There are eleven or two guards, so it's not like they don't have the power to fight!"

In the military tent, all the generals agreed in unison.

Zhao Jian said: "Everyone, my Jin Kingdom has millions of soldiers, and the Jin army's ambition to swallow up Zhongzhou is unstoppable! Right now, there are only a few setbacks."

After appeasing the restless generals, Zhao Jian ordered the generals to settle down in their positions, and the army tent became quiet again, except for the Taoist surnamed Chang, the immortal master of the Heart Demon Sect.

Zhao Jian finally let out a sigh.

"Mr. Zhao, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists." Daoist Chang said with a sigh of relief.

Zhao Jian said: "Oh, it's just this big defeat, if you want to leave the guard, I'm afraid you have to wait until the spring of next year."

This time he led the troops to the expedition, he won first and then lost, so it can be said that his merits and demerits are balanced, but this tossing has delayed Jin Jun's ambition to dominate.

Moreover, even if reinforcements come, there is a high probability that he will be replaced as the main general.

Chang Dao said humanely: "Pindao has sent people back to Yidu to send a message. I think that not long after coming, Jin Jun will have an order. A deputy hall master fell in front of the army."

Zhao Jian's expression changed, and he said, "But Master Yu?"

Daoist Chang's eyes flickered, and he nodded.

If it was only a deputy hall master, the suzerain of the heart demon sect would not come, and Yue Xin's whereabouts were unknown, so the suzerain would probably be the one who came this time.

……

……

Zongying County

It was already night, and after talking about military affairs with Shentu Fan, they had dinner together, Su Zhao then asked someone to lead Shentu Fan to a separate garden to rest.

Su Zhao returned to the backyard, stepped into the wing room, and was stunned for a while.

"What are you?" Su Zhao raised her eyes and looked at Yue Xin who was sitting on the bed. At this moment, Miss Yue was concentrating on something, embroidering something on a piece of silk with a needle and thread in her hand.

"When did you... come back?" Yue Xin turned around, her appearance changed slightly, and she quickly put aside the needlework and cloth in her hands.

Su Zhao stepped forward with a smile, took Yue Xin's hand, and said naturally: "What is embroidered? Let me see."

Speaking of which, these days, the two slept together in the same bed, facing each other day and night, although Yue Xin kept making sarcastic remarks, but on Su Zhao's side, the default progress bar was "slowly" going up.

Well, that's how popular it is.

Yue Xin moved away from Su Zhao's hand, a look of panic flickered on her snow-white cheeks, and she said anxiously: "Nothing embroidered."

Su Zhao smiled and said, "Let me see..."

"Don't look." Yue Xin's pretty face was dyed red, and she pushed Su Zhao's hand away, but said "Ouch".

"What's the matter, it's... tied?" Su Zhao frowned, and quickly grabbed Yue Xin's hand.

"You did a good job!" Yue Xin put the needle embroidery in her hand aside, picked up her finger, and on her slender hand, a bright red blood bead suddenly appeared on the belly of the finger.

"Ah, this..." Su Zhao said softly, picked up Yue Xin's slender finger, and put it in his mouth.

"What... what are you doing?" Yue Xin's tender body trembled violently, and she said clearly, her bright eyes were full of shame and anger, at this moment she only felt a strange suction coming from her fingers, which made her go limp.

Su Zhao let go of Yue Xin's finger, frowned and said, "You are too careless."

Yue Xin snorted coldly, completely ignoring Su Zhao.

Su Zhao took advantage of the opportunity to pick up the embroidery placed on the bed, looked at it, half admired, half jokingly said: "The ingenuity is ingenious, the craftsmanship is superb, who is this embroidered for?"

Well, among the praises, a thimble (idiom Solitaire) was also used.

"Here, it's done." Yue Xin said coldly.

Su Zhao embraced Yue Xin's shaved shoulders, and said with a smile, "Embroidered for Yin Yin?"

Yue Xin ignored Su Zhao, just pushed Su Zhao's palm away: "It's just boring."

Su Zhao murmured: "That's right, Bao Ma is usually free, researching certificates, checking bills, embroidering..."

"Get lost..." Yue Xin said angrily.

She can also be regarded as sharing the memory of distraction, how can she not hear someone's joke.
