Huan Rong

The content of the letter was not long, Qin Jing glanced at it, then folded the silk cloth and put it in his arms.

The goshawk circled for two weeks in mid-air, and flew northward with a loud cry.After flying for several days, I had to catch a rabbit to mend it.

Qin Yuce stepped forward immediately, his face full of curiosity.

"Is it Huan's son?"

Qin Jing nodded, turned the horse's head, and said: "The Jin army will go north in a few days, and the Murong Xianbei envoy has returned from Qin. The movements of Fu Jian and Murong Chui are really unpredictable. The Wubao needs to be strengthened in the near future."

"Can the Di people know how to send troops?" Qin Yu's expression darkened.

"It depends on what price Murong Xianbei offers." Qin Jing raised the whip, but it didn't land on the horse, it only exploded with a crisp sound in mid-air.

"Price?" Qin Yu was speechless, thinking this was a business deal?

"Didn't my brother read the news sent back by the spies?" Qin Jing turned her head and raised her brows lightly, looking even more handsome and unparalleled.

"You mean proton?" A trace of surprise flashed across Qin Yu's face, which soon turned into deep disgust, "These barbarians are really annoying, tsk!"

It's no secret that Fu Jian is lustful.

In Murong Xianbei, there is Princess Qinghe who is gorgeous in six parts, and there is also a young prince who is famous and famous.Murong Ping sent envoys to Chang'an, and kept saying that he was willing to send protons in order to build a good relationship between the two countries. Anyone with eyes could see what his intentions were.

"It doesn't have to be disgusting!"

Fu Jian likes to use "benevolence" to show off his reputation, and wished he could send someone to hold a trumpet and shout that he is a benevolent king.

Those who know the inside story can't see his hypocrisy.

Renjun?

With what he did?

Don't make people laugh!

Qin Yu snorted coldly, galloped the horse for a hundred meters, cupped his hand to his mouth, and roared like a lone wolf along the wind, resounding across the field.

Knowing Qin Yu's habits, Qin Jing couldn't help shaking her head, and said to the song, "Follow the third son."

"promise!"

Qin Yu has a hearty personality. Among the Qin brothers, he has a good temper.

However, once angry, nine times out of ten he will find trouble with the barbarians.There are too many similar examples, and the neighboring Xianbei and Di tribes have personal experience.

"Mr. Lang, there is news from Chang'an that Fu Jian intends to send troops, but he wants Murong Xianbei to give up the two prefectures, send over the protons, and hand over 15 shi of grain and [-] head of cattle and sheep."

"The price is not high."

With Murong Xianbei's national power, the quantity of food, cattle and sheep is not worth mentioning, and the proton is also an issue, the key lies in the states and counties that are handed over.

"With Murong Ping's character, if we really want to reach an agreement, Yuzhou will bear the brunt of the land to be handed over."

Yuzhou?

Bu Qu frowned, and suddenly realized.

"You mean, Mr. Murong, Murong Jue will take this opportunity to force Murong Chui to make concessions?"

"Concession?" Qin Jing sneered. When things really got to that point, Murong Chui would not give up his territory, but would instead raise his troops. He would even follow the example of the previous guards in Shancheng, bringing his territory and soldiers to the Di people.

"Let's see."

Since Murong Ke's death, the court of Yan State has been in chaos.

Murong Chui took the initiative to invite Ying because of the Di people's sending troops before, and the situation improved slightly.Unexpectedly, Murong Ping and Kezuhun's clan started to quarrel again just after the Di people's threat was lifted.With Murong Chui in the middle, it would be difficult for Yan Guo not to weaken.

"Back to Wubao!"

Huan Rong asked Murong Chui in detail in the letter, and mentioned the military strength of Yuzhou.

Qin Jing deduced that the Jin army was likely to pull the boat from the Qingjiang River and go north via Xuzhou.Where the army passes by, there is more than [-]% chance that Murong Chui will send troops.

What is the general of the Jin army thinking?

In other words, what is Huan Wen, who is in charge of the army, thinking?

Such an advance route was not at all like expelling Murong Xianbei to the north for the purpose of defeating the Yan Kingdom, but more like going through the motions to gain prestige.

Qin Jing couldn't help but frown slightly.

If this is the case, Huan Yuanzi's picture is not small, and it will be difficult for the Jin Dynasty to be stable.

From Huan Rong's standpoint, he might not be safe.

Thinking of this, Qin Jing pressed her fingers to her lips and let out a loud whistle, calling back the hunting goshawks.Immediately, the whip was raised, the horse neighed loudly, raised its hooves, and galloped away with its belly close to the ground.

In the fourth year of Taihe, at the end of June, Jin general Mao Husheng was ordered by the army to dig through Juye for three hundred miles and lead Wenshui into Qingjiang.

Huan Rong was the grain transport officer of the vanguard right army, he was the first to board the boat according to the military order, and led the crowd to the riverside before dawn.

When the team reached the wharf, Huan Rong gave the order to stop. He did not follow the example of the forward left army and boarded the boat. Chains, tied with thick ropes, and firmly tied to the military boat.

Such a wooden boat can hold military rations to the maximum, including the military chariot that Huan Rong was riding on, and it can also support it.

Liu Jianzhi knew that Huan Rong had capable people under his command, but he didn't know that they were descendants of Gong Shupan and Xiangli.Seeing the grain cart turned into a wooden boat, like everyone else, his eyes were wide open, his face was full of surprise, and his jaw almost fell to the ground.

"General, please board the boat."

Huan Rong is determined to do his job well, so naturally he must be considerate in everything.

Liu Laozhi looked at him in surprise. Although he was full of guesses, he didn't speak in front of everyone. He stepped onto the military boat and planned to ask questions after the team set off.

There are more than 5 troops in the army, and the boats sail on the river for thousands of miles.

The bow of the boat broke through the water, splitting the white waves.The stern of the boat dragged the grain ship, leaving a shadow on the water.

Looking down from the sky, the fleet looks like a long dragon, winding on the river, breaking through the rapids, and heading north all the way.

Huan Rong and Liu Laozhi were in the same boat, and there were three or four counselors in the cabin, as well as two servants, Xun and Zhong.

Dian Kui and Qian Shi stood guard at the bow and stern of the boat.

Dian Kui even opened his clothes, rolled up the oars himself, and slapped him head-on when encountering water splashes. He didn't dodge or dodge, his whole body was soaked, but he laughed and yelled "happy".

The further north you go, the hotter it gets.

The soldiers and servants took off their robes one after another and kept wiping their sweat.

In the cabin, the health servant made ice cubes out of the saltpeter he carried and placed them in the corner of the cabin.

Liu Laozhi tore open his neckline and let out a long sigh of relief.Several counselors were even more smiling, looking at Huan Rong with a very friendly expression.

It is really a beautiful thing to be in the same boat with Lord Huanfu.

Not to mention the thoughtful meals, these cooling ice cubes alone make "outsiders" envious, wishing to ask for a military order to be transferred to the forward right army.

"This is a method I learned from a Taoist." Huan Rong picked up the teacup, took a sip of the iced tea soup, and couldn't help squinting his eyes.

Liu Laozhi is much more heroic. He drank the tea soup in two gulps, smacked his lips, and almost screamed refreshed.

"At this speed, we will reach Pengcheng in a few days. According to the military order, we will land here."

After drinking the tea soup, Liu Jianzhi spread out the map, and the counselors gathered around and began to talk about business.

"The governor of Pengcheng is a Han. His ancestor was an official in the Wei Dynasty. If we can say that he rebelled against the bandits, he will definitely avoid a sword."

Liu Laozhi was quite moved when the counselor put forward his opinion.

Huan Rong held the teacup and sat on the sidelines watching, not saying anything easily.

Xun You and Zhong Lin glanced at each other, although they didn't think much of the counselor's strategy, but Huan Rong told them first, they didn't speak easily, but discussed in a low voice, it is unknown when the military ration promised by Sima Huan will be fulfilled.

The ink corruption incident happened, the food transport officer and the three building owners were charged with all the crimes, and they were dealt with by military law before departure, and their heads were hung in the camp for three days.

The fact that Huanxi was not confessed does not mean that the truth can be completely concealed.

The local bigwigs who participated in the Northern Expedition were all smart people, not to mention Bigan's exquisite heart, but they were not much worse.

As the vanguard and the two armies found out the problem, rumors spread in the army.

The news couldn't be concealed, Sima Huan had to pay out of his own pocket to send people in Qiaojun City to replenish the granary emptied by his son.

After losing money and losing face, Da Sima Huan couldn't get rid of his anger. Under the eyes of everyone, he couldn't trouble Huan Rong, so he simply gave Huan Xi another thirty army sticks.

When Huanxi heard the news, his face turned pale with fright.

Seeing that the injury was getting better, but it became inexplicably hot, and even the doctors couldn't find out what happened.When the heat subsides and you can barely get up, it will be time for the army to set off.

Huan Xi boarded the boat with the support of the little boy, and stared at the boat where Huan Rong was, with resentment in his eyes.

As everyone knows, seeing his performance, Huan Chong and Huan Huo both frowned.

The former became more and more determined to support Huan Rong, while the latter began to seriously consider whether he should follow the fourth brother's suggestion, abandon Huan Xi, and turn to Huan Rong.

In the final analysis, Huanxi, the prince of the county, is really an idiot, and the mud can't support the wall.

Sima Huan was so disappointed in his eldest son that he didn't even want to take another look at him.

Looking in Huanxi's direction, Xi Chao couldn't help sighing, shook his head, and looked away.

Things are not over yet.

Sima Huan ordered people to make up [-]% of the army's rations, and the remaining [-]% was not in place.According to the rules, most of these military rations will be replenished during the war, just like Huanxi's previous plan, to grab the rice and wheat in the Northland before the autumn harvest.

Most of the generals had no objection, but Huan Rong didn't want to do it.

"There is a drought this year, and the harvest in Beidi prefectures and counties may be wiped out. The Hu people don't do anything with planting, and they mostly live by grazing. Most of the places where the army passes are the fields of the Han people. Looting and looting to harm the grain and farmers is definitely not a good deed."

Huan Rong's worry was not unreasonable.

Xun You and Zhong Lin discussed the countermeasures, but in the end they could only shake their heads and told Huan Rong clearly that if they didn't send troops to grab the rations, they might not be able to get back [-]% of the rations.

"It can't be robbed." Huan Rong still shook his head, "I'll figure out a way about this."

"promise."

Xun You and Zhong Lin also have objections to the matter of grabbing food.

Both are smart people, and they can more or less guess the purpose of the Northern Expedition.What made them sigh was that Sima Huan wanted to gain popular popularity while at the same time sending troops to rob food. Isn't it a contradiction?

Could it be that in his eyes, only the people in the south are "people", and the Han people in the north can be abandoned?

If this is the case, it will undoubtedly chill the hearts of the Han people in the Northland.

Want to recover the lost land and restore the imperial mausoleum without popular support?

Simply a daydream!

As the fleet sailed north, Huan Rong thought about how to raise rations, while Liu Jianzhi and his advisers discussed the capture of Pengcheng.Xi Yin and Huan Chong sent people to pass the news secretly, and Sima Huan was kept in the dark all the time, dreaming of returning from the Northern Expedition to win the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Facing the map, Xi Chao persuaded Sima Huan several times that he could consider the suggestion of Xi Ci envoy, not to stop after passing Xuzhou, but to speed up to Chenliu, and then go straight to Yecheng.

"The weather has been dry for a long time. If the bandits don't fight for a long time, their luck may be cut off, which is not good for the army."

"If you don't drive Yecheng directly, you will be afraid of public danger, and you will be defeated by the wind. If you go to war, you can bring the power of a large army and win in a single battle. If the victory or defeat is difficult to decide, in autumn, you can fight Soldiers plunder wheat and harvest rice, kill cattle and sheep, seize all the resources of the bandits, return to the south calmly, and fight again in the coming year."

"Murong Chui led [-] troops to occupy Yuzhou. There was a conflict with Murong Ping long ago, so the rescue must be too late. If the Di people want to send troops, they have to bypass Shangdang. If they don't detour, they need to pass through Qin's Wubao first."

"The three armies went north, although they had enough food and grass, they didn't bring fur coats. If the battle is delayed, if the northern land is cold early, the victory may be reversed."

"Ming Gong, please think again!"

Xi Chao's earnest words were worn out, just to make Huan Wen change his mind, don't do anything steady, try to make a quick decision.

"Ming Gong..."

Huan Wen raised his hand to stop Xi Chao's words.

"I will consider what Jing Xing said." Da Sima Huan stared at the map laid out on the table, and said, "However, the first battle has not been won, and I don't know the deployment of troops. It is too early to take a direct strategy."

Hearing these words, Xi Chao's expression changed slightly, as if a bucket of cold water was poured on his head, and he felt a chill in his heart.

He said so much, exhausted his tongue, Da Sima didn't listen to half of it?

Such a situation has never happened before.

"Jing Xing," Sima Huan raised his head and said, "Have you visited my son?"

"Minggong is Yan Shizi?"

"Yes."

"I have never been there before." Xi Chao was surprised, not understanding whether Da Sima Huan just mentioned it casually or meant something.

"You gave him the previous troop transfer order?"

"Hui Minggong, it is true."

"Both volumes?"

Xi Chao was stunned for a moment, his heart was shocked, and his face turned pale instantly.

"Duke Ming, I only hand over one volume to the eldest son!"

"Really?" Huan Wen looked at Xi Chao, his eyes darkened.

"I dare not hide from Duke Ming!"

"En." Sima Huan nodded and continued to check the map.

The sun was scorching hot outside the cabin, but Xi Chao was sitting in the cabin, but it was like being in an ice cellar.

Da Sima suspects him of transcribing military orders?If this guess is confirmed, he will definitely not believe him in the future!

At the beginning, he imitated Xi Jishi's handwriting and forged letters, intending to help Huan Da Sima succeed in his affairs, but he never expected that now it has become evidence of suspicion!

In fact, it's no wonder Sima Huan thinks too much.

It took less than half a day from when Huanxi dispatched troops to Huanrong to bring people to see him, the handwriting on the bamboo slips could be imitated, but it was too late to engrave the seal.

Furthermore, the bamboo slips used by the military order were specially made, the two bamboo slips were exactly the same, even the tie ropes were the same, so where could Huan Rong find the same materials in such a short time?

Not ready in advance, what else is the answer?

Huanda Sima had doubts in his heart, and Xi Chao's repeated suggestions to adopt Xi Yin's opinions made the doubts fermented, and this was the reason for the previous remarks.

Xi Chao should be thankful that Huan Da Sima trusts him most in the end.If it were someone else, they wouldn't ask at all, and would just drag it down and dispose of it without splashing a single splash.

Qin Jing once asserted that Huan Wen has the attitude of a traitor, so we can get a glimpse of it.

In the fourth year of Taihe, in July, [-] Jin troops went deep into Yandi, Gaoping Taishou watched the wind and surrendered, offering the city to Jin.

Huan Wen dispatched forward generals Deng Xia, Zhu Xu, and Liu Laozhi to lead troops to attack Linzhu, and won a big victory.General Fu Yan of Yan died in battle, and his subordinates either died or surrendered, and the rest all fled.

The first battle was won, and the morale of the army was greatly boosted.

The court of Yan State was shaken, and successively sent general Wang Zang and other joint troops to intercept the Jin army, but they were hit head-on and retreated steadily.

The forward right army led by Liu Laozhi took the lead in stationing in Wuyang, and the local Gaomenju clan rose up to respond to the Jin army and beheaded the officials of Yan State.

Huan Rong was in charge of escorting the army rations. Along the way, he encountered several routs of Xianbei troops. Seeing that although there were many guards on the grain carts, they were holding bamboo spears and shields.

I don't want to, the soft persimmon that seems easy to pinch is actually a hard bone.

The bamboo shield was erected, the bamboo spear was raised obliquely, and the Xianbei cavalry who rushed to the front, one by one, was pierced by the bamboo spear, and they were regarded as blood gourds.

Huan Rong was sitting in the military chariot, surrounded by forty soldiers, not to mention routs and bandits, not even a fly or mosquito could fly in.

The united "robbery gang" couldn't break through the gun battle and couldn't get close to the grain truck, so they couldn't help but feel withdrawn.Taking two steps back, I found that there were rows of bamboo shields standing behind me, and the way to escape was completely blocked!

"The one who delivered it to your door still wants to run away?"

It doesn't matter if it's a rout or a bandit, it's all military exploits!

Huan Rong's private soldiers have not yet given up, and the veterans escorting the rations are all excited.

The seemingly inconspicuous bamboo spear can beat the Xianbei cavalry like this!After fighting for so many years, I have never picked up such a bargain!

In their eyes, what is in front of them is no longer a vicious barbarian, but shiny coins, bolts of beautiful silk cloth, and a bucket of food that can feed the whole family!

"kill!"

"Kill!"

The infantry broke out in fighting spirit, picked up the ring sword and spear, and rushed towards the "combat exploits" with red eyes with a ferocious smile.

Facing such a group of red-eyed "lunatics", no matter how fierce the Xianbei soldiers are, their legs and feet will weaken.

The veterans who had a blood feud with the Hu people were the bravest. When the blade rolled up and the blade broke, three or five of them grabbed the hands and feet of the Xianbei soldiers, and screamed in horror, killing the enemy with their bare hands.

Blood splattered, Jin Bing's body and face were red.

"what!"

The robbers were the first to collapse and collapsed to the ground in fright, and several even became incontinent on the spot.

The Xianbei soldiers never gave up their resistance. As a result, they all became the dead souls of the Jin soldiers, their ears were cut off, and they became military exploits handed in in the future.

Huan Rong was protected in the military chariot, and did not participate in the fight from the beginning to the end.

Both his private soldiers and the newly transferred infantry took it for granted.

"A god-like figure like Fu Jun shouldn't be doing things like killing people at all."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, let's kill as many thieves as this come!"

When clearing the battlefield, several pawns cut off their ears and said, without Mr. Huanfu, how could they have encountered such a good thing.If it weren't for the majesty's carriage being conspicuous enough and carrying a large amount of food, how could it attract so many Xianbei people!

"If it wasn't for the order of the Fujun, we didn't let us go to harvest the wheat like the Zuo army, and we wouldn't have encountered these rout soldiers at all."

Abandoning the earless Xianbei soldiers, the infantry fastened their pockets, faced the direction of the military chariot, and smiled honestly.

Regardless of the background, carrying a hoe is an authentic farmer.

Huan Rong sat in the car and silently closed the window.

The so-called people should not be judged by their appearance, the ancients did not deceive me.

The grain transportation team joined the vanguard army, encountered Xianbei soldiers on the way to report, and killed [-] enemies. The three vanguard generals were dumbfounded, with disbelief on their faces.

"How many?"

"730 per person."

Dian Kui and Qian Shi unbuttoned their bags, and their ears all over the place are the proof!

Liu Laozhi was speechless for a while, Deng Xia and Zhu Xu looked at each other in blank dismay.

They ran for hundreds of miles, finally formed a siege, and crushed them with an absolutely superior force. The Xianbei soldiers rushed out of the siege and ran like rabbits. They couldn't kill a few by biting their tails, but they suffered a lot of losses.

Huan Rong walked slowly behind with more than 1000 people, but killed hundreds of enemies at once?

Looking at Huan Rong with a beautiful appearance and moon charm, and handsome eyebrows, and then looking at his comrades covered in blood and dust, the three of Liu Jianzhi felt aggrieved.

Does killing the enemy also look at the face?

Can this still be a happy war!
