Xian Dynasty Era

Chapter 469 Confused
Gu'an County · within the county government office

Su Zhaodai discussed with Wu Shou and Hua Liang the matter of entering the army properly, got up, and looked over the generals in the official hall.

"General Hua, you lead an army of [-] troops stationed outside the city, and be on guard against the Panbu to reinforce the soldiers of Jin."

Hua Liang hesitated for a moment, and quickly exchanged glances with Wu Shou, then glanced at Wei Jing where the old god was present, and finally cupped his hands and said, "Obey."

Su Zhao nodded at him, then looked at General Su and a group of guards behind him, the military order was issued, and in the entire official hall, the generals who had received the general order left the entire army.

"Wu Sima, as long as the Jin soldiers retreat, it will be nothing to worry about like the rebels from the four counties." Su Zhao said to Wu Shou.

Following the soldiers of various ministries, they marched towards the former Jin army camp in Gu'an County, and the fighting in the past few months was quelled. Once again, the battle clouds were dense.

"Woooo..."

On the watchtower, the soldiers on the lookout noticed the movement of Gu'an County City, so they picked up the horns and blew the warning.

With the sound of desolate and solemn horns, the entire Jin army camp was screaming, and armored soldiers came out everywhere. In an instant, a tense atmosphere before the war permeated.

"Mr. Zhao, the Soviet and Wei allied forces are attacking in a big way. How should I deal with it?" At this moment, the camp of the Jin army's central army was crowded with people, and the faces of the generals of the Jin state showed shocking expressions.

Zhao Jian said in a deep voice: "Order all the troops to gather and shoot according to the camp, and don't send out a single soldier to cross the camp to meet the enemy!"

The generals promised to take orders and go.

"Zhao Sima, this is not a long-term solution." At this time, a tall, bold young general with a bronze face said.

This young man was in his early 30s, with a rough face and a bloody white cloth wrapped around his arms. Although his face was a little listless, his tiger eyes were full of brilliance from time to time.

"General Wei, this commander doesn't know. It's just that our army must stick to it until the spring of next year, and wait for the army in Yidu." Zhao Jian glanced at the young general.

This person is none other than Wei Fu, the Left General of the Jin State who fled from Ganyuan County.

Although Wei Fu had just suffered a defeat and was a little disheartened, he didn't look downcast.

In fact, compared to Zhao Jian who never had a big defeat, Wei Fu was brave and good at fighting, with a tough fighting style. He had lost many battles, but he had won more battles. .

The demise of the [-] Jin army is heartbreaking, but firstly, it happened for a reason, because of the lack of food, and secondly, Wei Fu has made great military exploits in the past, and made great contributions to the expansion of the territory of Jin. .

After returning to the country, at most, the title will be lowered by a few ranks, or he will be relieved of military power, reprimanded, and then recuperate for a few months.
Once the war in the Jin Kingdom resumes, the Jin Dynasty court will still use Wei Fu.

This is the background of the four families of Jin.

Jinjun's humerus, four courtyards and eight pillars!

"Mr. Zhao thinks, with the current strength of our army, we can still last beyond the beginning of spring next year?" Wei Fu said in a deep voice.

Zhao Jian said: "If you can't hold on, you have to hold on. General Wei, do you know why this commander is so obsessed with this?"

Wei Fu's face paused slightly, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

At this moment, there are only two people in the army tent, Wei Fu said: "But I am worried that after returning to the capital, the central minister will punish Zhao Gong for the crime of using troops against others?"

Zhao Jian laughed, the laughter was somewhat contemptuous.

"This commander spent half his life as a soldier. He has fought over a hundred battles, chasing Rong and Di in the north, and suppressing Qin in the west. How can those ministers in the court criticize him for losing a battle?"

Wei Fu was silent for a moment when he heard the words.

Zhao Jian sighed and said: "Because the world is fighting for the dragon, time is the most important thing. If I withdraw the army, the rebels from the four counties under Wei Pan will definitely not be able to resist Suhou. From the perspective of this commander, this Wei country will eventually be It must fall into the hands of the State of Su! Once the State of Su is allowed to defend, the national power will inevitably expand dramatically!"

"Mr. Zhao," Wei Fu said in a deep voice, "Wei State owns fifteen counties. Although the Wei family and his son fought for power, they did not lose the hearts of the people of Wei State. It is not easy for Su State to join forces."

Zhao Jian shook his head and said, "People's hearts? People's hearts are like duckweed, blowing away with the wind."

"General Wei, once the State of Su is destroyed, I can control me to go south and lock the key. At that time, the ambition of your lord and you and me to unify Liuhe will become a mirror image! Even if half of my life is lost in Zhongzhou, I will also be a king. Let's stop this Zhongzhou Qianlong!"

Hearing Zhao Jian's seriousness, Wei Fu frowned and said, "Mr. Zhao's words are exaggerated. Although Su State was lucky enough to win a game, it is not so easy to gobble up the Wei State. Zheng State in the south is eyeing it like a tiger, isn't it? The rise of Rong Su?"

In his view, although Su State had won several foreign wars, such big victories were not uncommon in the process of Jin State's foreign expansion, and there were even more brilliant victories.

In a word, it just makes people look sideways.

Zhao Jian said: "General Wei, don't underestimate Su Guo. Su Hou Yingrui is decisive. Once he gets lucky and becomes a climate, if he wants to stop it in the future, the price he has to pay will definitely be ten times or a hundred times that of today!"

Before Wei Fu, who was deep in thought, could open his mouth, Zhao Jian said in a deep voice, "General Wei, you and I will write a letter together, discussing the benefits and disadvantages, so as to strengthen the Jinjun and the ministers of the court, and to conquer the heart of Zhongzhou!"

Hearing this, Wei Fu didn't promise not to say anything, but his expression changed, he said in surprise, "Mr. Zhao, but something else happened to Yidu?"

A few days ago, he had been in Ganyuan County, and he didn't pay much attention to the situation in Yidu.

Zhao Jian's eyes were deep, and he said quietly: "General Wei, the King of Qin has sent an envoy to Quwo, and agreed to Quwo Xiaozong's request to marry his sister, Princess Liyang, to Quwo Xiaozong's Boyang. Gong Jiheng."

Speaking of which, this was the news he got through a secret channel yesterday. At that time, the news of Wei Fu's defeat had not yet been heard. Although he felt worried, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Until, the destruction of Wei Fu's [-] troops along the way had completely declared that Jin's strategy of marching into Zhongzhou was aborted, and because of the alliance between Quwo Xiaozong and Qin Wang Yingyang, domestic disputes may resume.

Wei Fu exclaimed in shock: "Why did the King of Qin do this? Our two kingdoms have already spoken..."

King Qin Yingyang once reached a gentleman's agreement with Lord Jin in the Weihe River. Of course, this agreement was passed down by word of mouth, and the general idea was that Jin State should go to Zhongzhou, and Qin State should go to the southwest. .

Zhao Jian said: "According to what King Qin said, this is what the Empress Dowager Xuan meant. Ji Heng of the Xiaozong of Quwo sincerely wanted to marry Princess Liyang. In three years, several envoys were sent to Xianyang to propose marriage. The Empress Dowager could not bear to see her daughter living as a widow. , so I agreed."

The ancestor of the king of Jin was Ji Zhou Zongbo, who had the same surname as Ji Zhou.

Wei Fu frowned, and said: "It is Mr. Zhao's intention that your majesty will call the army back to the division."

"Xiaozong Quwo has long been unwilling to be a minister, but his reputation is weaker than that of the emperor. Once he gets the support of the King of Qin, he may be a trouble to the emperor's confidantes." Zhao Jian said.

"Since this is the case, Mr. Zhao should lead the troops back and suppress disobedient ministers." Wei Fu said in a deep voice.

The domestic situation is unstable, and there are undercurrents of ambitious people surging all the time. Shouldn't we lead our troops back to the capital to relieve the worries of your father?
However, the behavior of the big Sima in front of him made him very confused.

Zhao Jian said: "The situation in the country is turbulent, so what can I do when I go back? If I lead the army outside, it may inspire the whole body to resist foreign aggression, and perhaps reduce a civil strife."

Wei Fu frowned, feeling that Zhao Jian's words might not be true.

"Could it be that you want to support the bandits to be self-respecting, but...it seems that you don't want to." Wei Fu lowered his eyes slightly, only feeling suspicious, and secretly said, "It would be great if uncle was here, and most likely we can see Zhao Jian's intentions."

Uncle Wei Fu, the patriarch of the Wei family of the four Jin clans, Wei Wujiu is a former general. Although he was born as a general, he has political skills.
