Although there are not many women in the old Zhao family waiting to be married, they can still find a few. This one is definitely not the best choice, nor is it the most suitable choice.
The reason why we finally chose Zhao Jian, whose bloodline is already a little distant, cannot be completely unreasonable. Behind any choice, it is definitely not just a coincidence.
Zhao Jian is indeed a good member of the Zhao clan, but he is also a general in the Imperial City Division. If he were not a daughter, he would still be inappropriate in many places. Moreover, he is not ruthless enough.
Otherwise, Zhao Kuangyin might really train him as the next general manager of the Imperial City Division.
For many power lords, institutions such as the Imperial City Division must be placed in the hands of their confidants. And if they have the same blood flowing through them, they will naturally be more trustworthy.
The reason why he regarded her as a marriage partner also showed that Zhao Kuangyin planned to further increase the penetration of Dou Jiande's power.
As the leading espionage agency in the Central Plains, the Imperial City Department will naturally not be weak in infiltrating Dou Jiande's forces. However, these are just conventional means of infiltration by spies among the various princes. The secret agents who have truly reached a certain status will
It is precious enough.
Taking this person as the target of this marriage, it is entirely possible to take advantage of this opportunity to infiltrate a group of chess pieces.
Therefore, after finally reaching an agreement after spending such a long time, Di Qing led the army and finally went south to Xuzhou, and then slowly prepared to march to Yuzhou. As for Su Qin, he took the first step and went to Pengcheng to pick up his bride.
Although it seems a little anxious, it is reasonable. After all, it is because of the pressure of the Jin army that Zhao Kuangyin is willing to compromise and does not mind letting Dou Jiande take advantage of it. If this waits until the end of the war, at that time, Zhao Kuangyin is
Not sure what you think!
Therefore, if you want to get the dowry, this is the best time. And since you want to get the dowry, you naturally have to pick up the new daughter-in-law. If you don’t even pick up the new daughter-in-law, you just get the dowry. This is
Is it because he is afraid that he will not know the essence of this marriage? Zhao Kuangyin also wants face, and Su Qin, who has got the wife, naturally has to consider taking care of Zhao Kuangyin's face.
Su Qin's original intention was to take advantage of this opportunity to capture Zhao Kuangyin's base camp in one fell swoop. If there was a crisis in Zhao Kuangyin's base camp, the morale of the Xuzhou Army on the front line would inevitably be turbulent. In the Central Plains War, Zhao Kuangyin would definitely lose.
This is equivalent to when the two sides are in a team battle, but find that their own crystal has been directly taken away by others! So, what is the need to continue the fight? It is already a losing outcome.
However, Yi Yin was extremely cautious.
Of the 150,000 troops in Xuzhou, 120,000 were led by Zhao Kuangyin to support Yuzhou. In other words, there are only 30,000 troops left in Xuzhou today. Of these 30,000 troops, 10,000 are stationed in Pengcheng.
.As for the remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses, they were scattered to several important cities such as Xiaopei.
The number of guards around Su Qin was as high as 5,000. Although it was only half of Pengcheng's troops, it was enough to pose a threat to Pengcheng.
In fact, logically speaking, Yi Yin has no reason to refuse Su Qin to lead troops into the city at this time. After all, their two families are in alliance at this time. The most important thing is that no normal person can imagine that Su Qin has anything to do with him at this time.
Possible reasons for attacking Zhao Kuangyin.
But Yi Yin still didn't let Su Qin lead all the troops into the city, but only asked him to lead five hundred guards into the city. It was just because of an intuition, not that he had any doubts. Sometimes, this kind of thing is so helpless.
.
And Yi Yin even squeezed out money, food, wine and meat from his teeth to reward Su Qin's troops. It is said that he even sold his own house and personally apologized to Su Qin, which was considered a step down for Su Qin.
Yi Yin had taken care of his face and dignity, and Su Qin could not insist on letting all five thousand soldiers and horses enter the battlefield. Any unnecessary and unnecessary actions may arouse Yi Yin's alertness, and there will be
It may directly lead to the failure of the plan.
Although the number of 500 soldiers and horses was far from enough, Su Qin still planned to take the risk. After all, the opponent's lack of sufficient vigilance against them was their greatest advantage.
That is to say, on the day of the wedding, 500 troops and horses entered the city and launched a brazen attack. However, after all, there were still insufficient troops entering the city. Coupled with the fact that the defenders Huangfu Yu, Suo Bao and others fought hard, Su Qin had to retreat in the end and break out to fight.
There is a meeting of soldiers and horses outside the city.
However, Su Qin also tricked Yi Yin. When he led the 500 troops to launch a desperate attack, the floating water house troops hidden in the city also attacked Pengcheng's granary at the same time.
When the fire burned down, even if Yi Yin reacted in time, after he sent out soldiers and horses to put out the fire, he managed to raise some food and grass for Zhao Kuangyin on the front line, but most of it was burned down by the fire.
.
For Zhao Kuangyin, who was already short of food, this was definitely a matter of worsening the situation.
But the real trouble is not yet here. Although food is still a huge problem for Zhao Kuangyin, Xuzhou is even more in a food crisis.
After all, Di Qing's army has not completely left Xuzhou, and with the degree of emptiness in Xuzhou now, one can imagine the crisis Xuzhou is facing now.
In fact, this was exactly the case. At the same time as Su Qin launched his attack, Di Qing also decisively stopped his original plan to go to Yuzhou. He divided his troops into three groups and swept Xuzhou with 120,000 troops.
Wherever the army went, they quickly attacked the city and fortified it. Many county magistrates even abandoned the county seat and surrendered. Some of the more courageous ones, although they did not surrender directly, faced Di Qing's army, they abandoned the county seat and fled alone.
Go. There are very few people who are really stubborn and will fight to the end.
And even the few loyalists couldn't make any big splash. The strength gap between the two sides was there. Di Qing had a total of 120,000 troops in his hands. Facing an empty Xuzhou, the army
Who can resist being crushed all the way?
In particular, for Zhao Kuangyin, Xuzhou was the most important. Under the pressure on the front line, most of his strong generals were transferred to the two states of Yan and Henan. The dignified base camp was finally able to win.
In fact, there are not many generals left who took action.
