There was silence in the Chinese army tent at Heshuo Camp. Everyone, including Gai Jun, all looked at Jia Xu quietly, waiting for his speech.--Green＠『色』#小￥说&网--Mobile phone
Jia Xu from the novel site thought for a long time, raised his eyes and glanced at the big tent, and said eloquently: "Lushui Hu lives in Wuwei and Zhangye, with about 200,000 people and 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers, which is equivalent to the number of soldiers in the North."
Xianling in the North originally had a larger population, but Gai Jun beheaded tens of thousands of people through several battles, and captured hundreds of thousands of men and women. He settled them by the Nishui River and farmed them for grazing, which not only weakened the potential of the Qiang, but also
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone by enhancing one's own strength.
"There are generally three ways for Lu Shuihu to come to the north. I will try to explain them, and you all will listen. The first is to cross the Yellow River from the south of Wuwei, pass through the two counties of Jincheng and Hanyang, cross Anding, and enter from the west. The second is
Cross the vast desert of Wuwei, cross the Yellow River, pass through Xianling Qiangzhong, and enter the northwest of Beidi. The third one leaves Xiutuze, goes deep beyond the Great Wall, and detours back to the north of Beidi County." Jia Xu stood in front of the map and said
, while pointing out the exact location and explaining it in detail to everyone.
Jia Xu thought carefully and carefully, and he was also familiar with geography. He could be said to have left no omissions. There were few people who were clear about civil and military matters, and many who were sudden. Xun Yu, Xun You's uncle and nephew, Xi Zhicai, and Wei Zhongdao were knowledgeable and well-intentioned.
Due to his background, he didn't know the details, so he could only listen obediently at the moment. On the other hand, Fu Qian, a native of the North, although young, was quite similar to Jia Xu, and he understood everything the latter said.
Gai Jun nodded slowly and asked in a deep voice: "From which direction do Wenhe think Lu Shuihu will invade Beidi?"
Jia Xu said calmly: "The three roads mentioned by the official are the first and last priority in danger. The purpose of Lu Shui's coming is to surprise him. If everyone knows about it, he will lose his original intention. One is the Yellow River.
In the south, we have many spies, and in the north there is stability as a buffer. The chance of Lu Shuihu coming from this direction is very slim. Secondly, the desert is vast and difficult for birds to fly, and it is difficult for animals to fly, let alone humans? Perhaps they have not crossed the Yellow River.
We have lost most of our combat power, so we are lucky to succeed. There is still Beidi Zero standing in front of us, so this road is impassable. Therefore, Lu Shuihu will most likely choose the third option."
Gai Jun stared at the map with his eyes tightly and said word by word: "Detour back to the North from beyond the Great Wall?"
Jia Xu nodded, and out of caution by nature, added: "Of course, Lu Shuihu may not choose another path, but the official believes that the number of people and horses in the north is limited and it is impossible to cover everything. The importance of defense can be divided according to this.
"
Gai Jun looked at the group of counselors headed by Xun Yu and asked, "What do you think?"
What Xun Yu lacked was not wisdom and strategy, but first-hand information. Now after listening to Jia Xu's detailed explanation, he had some understanding. He immediately started thinking about it and made some calculations. The result he got in his mind was somewhat the same as Jia Xu's. He nodded.
He agreed: "I think what Jia Changshi said is very reasonable, and I second my opinion." His nephew Xun You followed closely and said, "I also second my opinion."
"Second the proposal..." The counselors seconded the proposal one after another.
Gai Jun made up his mind, and then said to Jia Xu: "Wen He, please tell me about the situation in the north."
Without thinking, Jia Xu said: "The general has been deploying troops abroad for many years, fighting fiercely in the northwest, and killing all the barbarians. The northern region has contributed the most, and the total number of Han and Qiang troops he has mobilized before and after is no less than 40,000 to 50,000."
Regarding this point, Gai Jun himself admitted that although he was victorious in every battle, swept through the enemy like a roll, and beheaded tens of thousands at every turn, his own losses were not trivial. People like the Xianling general Ma Nu who followed him in the early years, Gui He
, all died on the battlefield, the tragedy is evident from this.
Jia Xu continued: "Today, General Qin Wang Chang'an and Yang (Aruo) Zhonglang responded to the call and led 10,000 Han and Qiang infantry and cavalry in the north. The first zero Qiang cavalry was 10,000, and went south with three auxiliaries. The remaining troops and horses in the north were only
Five or six thousand people. Of course, if the north is facing a crisis, there will be about 10,000 or 20,000 Han Qiang in the field, and they can fight if they are recruited. Among the first zero Qiang, there are also 20,000 to 30,000 horsemen who can help."
Everyone fell into silence after hearing this, thinking about the enemy and ourselves.
Fu Qian shook his head and said first: "Yan Jun secretly believed that although he only talked about Lu Shui, he expected Han Sui to be a man and he would send Han soldiers to accompany him. The number of soldiers and horses ranged from 30,000 to 40,000 to 5,780,000. With only the Northern Territory
The land of a county cannot be defeated. (.cc hand, fight. Updates super fast)"
Jia Xu deeply believed that he must not let the North Land resist foreign enemies alone, otherwise even if Lu Shuihu was successfully driven out, the North Land would be hit hard. The Chaoxue, a prosperous and prosperous county in the northwest that Xu Gaijun had worked so hard to manage, would be severely damaged.
..
The question is, from which direction should reinforcements be sent?
The one closest to the North is undoubtedly King Qin's army in the Sanfu area. Under Chang'an City, Gai Jun's headquarters has about 60,000 people. To the north of the Wei River, on the Yangling line, his father Gai Xun has about 10,000 people. In the northwest, Yang Aruo's tribe has 10,000 people on foot and cavalry.
There are more than 80,000 troops in total. Of course, the more than 10,000 wounded and even the more than 20,000 rebel prisoners are not included. Now is the critical moment for King Qin. I am afraid it will be difficult to send troops to return to the north, and there will be less troops.
It won't help. Too much chou will affect the overall situation.
Xun Yu said: "King Qin's army cannot be moved lightly. Jinyang is far away and it will be difficult to rescue for a while. Why not send troops from Hedong?" In the northwest of Hedong County, Linfen still has Gu Baibo, Li Yue's 5,000 troops, and there is also Zanghong County in Anyi in the south.
There are thousands of soldiers, and the total number of the two is no less than ten thousand. Because there was an order in advance, the soldiers are on standby at any time, waiting for recruitment. They were originally used as follow-up supplements to King Qin's army. Now that the situation in Chang'an is very good, they have become dispensable, so they went to support
Northland couldn't be more suitable.
Gai Jun soon made a decision. In addition to sending 10,000 infantrymen to Hedong, he also asked his father Gai Xun to give 5,000 soldiers. Finally, he would dispatch 10,000 cavalry from his headquarters. Gai Jun's headquarters had 60,000 troops and about two knights.
Ten thousand men and women, Han Sui lost troops and generals in the battle the day before, and retreated to the camp. He would definitely not dare to go out again. He didn't need to keep too many cavalry around him, so he just set aside half of it to return to the north to support the north.
The reinforcements are as high as 25,000, which can be said to be very strong. Coupled with the troops from the North, we will definitely be able to defeat the powerful enemy.
But, who should be the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements?
Gai Jun thought for a while, and Yang Aruo, who had been in the north for a long time, was the best candidate. However, he was now leading an army alone and was indispensable as an enemy.
The five generals under his command, their nephew Gai Yin, are in a similar situation to Yang Aruo and cannot be moved. Pang De and Hu Feng have no experience in commanding an army of tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry. They are a little immature and need experience. Ma Teng and Guan Yu can both take the role.
At this time, Gai Jun first looked at Ma Teng, and then at Guan Yu, his eyes switching back and forth between the two of them.
Gai Jun's meaning was already obvious. Guan Yu and Ma Teng each weighed the pros and cons in their minds. In comparison, Ma Teng was more enthusiastic because he had done little since he went south. Seeing that King Qin was about to succeed, he probably wouldn't be able to make any money.
What a great achievement, instead of just living here doing nothing, why not lead the troops north to relieve Gai Jun's worries. In the future, Gai Jun will take charge of the center and grant a large number of ministers. How can he be missing? Thinking about this, Ma Teng immediately made up his mind.
Determined, stand up and ask yourself to be a general.
Guan Yu originally aspired to serve as King of Qin and was unwilling to return. Now that he saw Ma Teng step forward, he was happy to see success.
Gai Jun made a decision and made the town army general Ma Teng as the general, Li Fengzhonglang general Zhenliang as the deputy general, and sent Wanqi immediately to the north for rescue. He also sent the fast horse Xingye to Beidi to notify the civil and military forces in the county to strengthen the alert.
Yiwei's great enemy. On the east side of Hedong, since the two places were quite far apart, Gai Jun was given a special grace period of five days. Within five days, he had to reach Beidi County.
Everything he should think about had been thought of, and everything he should have done had been done. Gai Jun felt relaxed and felt tired. Maybe it was because he had too many things on his mind. Even though he was tired and sleepy, he still couldn't fall asleep and kept tossing and turning.
Turning over and over again, it wasn't until the red sun peeked its head that Mimi lost consciousness.
But it was said that Yang Gan broke through the border between the two armies and was discovered by scouts from both sides at the same time. The coalition scouts immediately reported back to Chang'an. Cheng Gongying was busy day and night to clean up the rebels in the city. In addition, he was also patrolling the city defense during the day beforehand, and he did not sleep a wink for two days and one night.
, he was really sleepy, and when he was woken up by someone when he was sleeping soundly at night, you can imagine that he would not be in a good mood.
After careful investigation, it was discovered that Sima Yang Qian was missing in Hengmen. The person the scouts saw in the field was undoubtedly this man.
Cheng Gongying thought that he was a fish that had slipped through the net and rebelled against the party. He was lucky enough to escape. He didn't care much and dealt with it hastily. He sent everyone away and lay down on the cave. After a while, he fell asleep again.
No matter how smart Cheng Gongying was, he never expected that Yang Gan was not a remnant of the rebel party at all, but a member of Yan Zhong. His biggest secret, which was also the last resort against Gai Jun, was completely exposed in front of his opponent.
The coalition forces had just suffered a heavy defeat, and it would be difficult to threaten the Heshuo Army in the field in the short term. Correspondingly, the scope of the scouts' influence also shrank significantly. Ma Teng's 10,000 cavalrymen left the camp before dawn. Although the movement was not small, the coalition forces
The scouts could not get close to the Heshuo camp. They only knew that there was something strange happening on the other side. As for the details, they were not clear about it and could only rely on wild guesses.
The horses galloped, whipping up their whips, and ran all the way north, crossing the Wei Bridge and heading straight into Yangling.
Gai Xun was shocked when he learned the details from Ma Teng, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
In order to serve the king, Gai Xun himself, the prefect, went south. He also took with him Zhang Ji, the long history officer, Fu Xun, the meritorious officer, and more than a dozen high-ranking officials from the north. At this moment, there were only a few petty officials left in the county government, who had to deal with them during the day.
There may be no problem with political affairs, but if they are forced to face a powerful enemy, it will be difficult for them to do so. Gai Xun cannot imagine what they will become like.
In Gai Xun's heart, he was extremely grateful and grateful to his eldest brother Yan Zhong. If Beiland suffered a catastrophe, even if Gai Jun didn't take it seriously, he would not be able to get over it.
In Yangling City, there were only a few soldiers and horses, but there were thousands of coalition prisoners. Gai Xun had ten thousand men, most of whom were stationed in the Xiwei Bridge area, cooperating with Yang Aruo's troops to threaten Han Sui's flanks. Gai Jun suddenly wanted to mobilize his troops.
Five thousand soldiers would be difficult to complete. Ma Teng knew this very well, so he made an agreement with Gai Xun that he would lead his 10,000 cavalry and leave first, waiting for Gai Xun to recruit men and horses before setting off.
The two of them said goodbye outside the city, and Ma Teng continued to go north. Throughout the whole day, he rarely stopped and traveled seventy or eighty miles. In addition, Chang'an to Yangling was no less than dozens of miles away. In one day, the army continued to move forward, and it was far more than
After walking for a hundred miles, the soldiers complained endlessly even though they used horses instead of horses. No matter how urgent Ma Teng was, it was of no use, so he spent the night in Yunyang.
The army could not move quickly, but the messenger rushed hundreds of miles that day and arrived in Fuping, Northland, before sunset.
Fuping County, the current administrative seat of the Northland, is the former Lingzhou County. When Gai Jun was appointed as the governor of the Northland, he moved the area thousands of miles away. In order to maintain the gains he had made, he moved the administrative seat to Lingzhou County. Lingzhou County used to be located in the north of the territory. , it was located in the central area at that time, making it convenient to supervise the north and south.
After several years of hard work by Gai Jun, Gai Xun and his son, Beidi has shone with a brilliance that shocked the world, and has become a well-deserved wealthy county in the northwest. Fuping, as a county seat, has been expanded and repaired several times, and it can also be regarded as the largest city in the northwest.
If Fuping City is the center of Beidi County, then the official residence is the center of Fuping City. County officials all live here. The buildings are extremely majestic and luxurious, making it the most eye-catching building complex in the entire Fuping City.
Deep in the official residence, the afterglow of the setting sun falls on an elegant and unique house, reflecting the red glow in the eyes, which is extremely beautiful.
A boy about four feet in length was jumping and jumping happily on the grass. His hair, which was neatly combed and falling naturally, rose and fell with his movements and became slightly disheveled. The delicate and delicate little face is now flushed, with sparse eyebrows and bright eyes, and teeth as white as jade, just like a beautiful girl. Such a cute boy, no matter how many troubles he has, when he sees him, he will smile sincerely. This is The son is Yang Ji, the eldest son of Yang Aruo and Gai Liao.
"Tainting slave, run slower, run slower... don't fall." A woman in her fifties followed behind the child and chased him. His clothes were luxurious, his temperament was elegant, and his appearance was vague. You can see the beauty of the past.
Upon hearing this, Yang Ji turned around and shouted loudly: "Grandma, come after me..." The woman was Yang Ji's grandmother, Gai Jun, Gai Liao's mother, and Gai Xun's wife Ma Zhao.
"Tainting slave..." A woman's voice suddenly sounded, with a touch of majesty in its beauty. Yang Ji was like a deflated ball. He stopped running, lowered his head slightly, and walked honestly towards the sound. direction.
The owner of the voice is about twenty-five or six years old, extremely tall for a man, and has a dignified and beautiful appearance. What is surprising is that there is a trace of heroic spirit hidden between her eyebrows, which makes her completely different from others. The great ladies of today's era. If not Gai Jun's sister, Yang Ji's mother, Gai Liao, who could be there?
"Don't you dare not listen to grandma's words? Are you feeling itchy?" Gai Liao puffed and glared as he spoke. He didn't look like a loving mother at all, but the Yang family was exactly the opposite of ordinary families. They followed the rules of a loving father and a strict mother.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter... your brother, when he was as old as Ting Nu, he was a little more naughty than him." Ma Zhao touched his grandson's head and said to his daughter, his smile full of doting. se. Gai Xun and Gai Jun, father and son, have been officials all year round, and it has been difficult to get together for a long time. Except for the eldest son Gai Yi, Ma Zhao took care of the other sons, and none of the other sons had a chance. Ma Zhao was full of the idea of separating generations. All of his love was devoted to Yang Ji, and he received everything he asked for, pampering him to the extreme.
Gai Liao's face brightened slightly and he said to Ma Zhao: "Brother, Han Sui was defeated in the battle the day before yesterday. We can look forward to it. I believe it won't be long before our family can be reunited in Chang'an. After waiting for so many years, we finally waited. arrive.".
"Oh, I want to see my uncle, I want to see my uncle..." Yang Ji clapped his hands happily. His mother and grandmother said that he had met his uncle before, but he didn't remember it at that time. name, I was extremely curious.
"..." Ma Zhaosi's thoughts surged and her eyes softened. She only had a son, Gai Jun, who left home as a young man and traveled to Luoyang Imperial College for three years. Later, he returned home after welcoming his wife. Within two years, he paid filial piety again.
After Lian became an official and Zhongping, it was rare for mother and son to see each other for many years. Such days are a kind of torture for any mother. Ma Zhao is not an ignorant country woman. She comes from a famous family and is knowledgeable.
He is profoundly knowledgeable and understands the righteousness of his son. He knows that his son sacrificed his family for the country and his relatives for the people. However, he cannot stop the longing for him in his heart. As he gets older, it becomes more and more unbearable.
"By the way, Xiao Lang is getting older, so I plan to let him serve as an official in the north." Seeing his mother's somewhat sad feelings, Gai Liao hurriedly changed the subject. No one can understand Ma Zhao better than Gai Liao, a daughter.
The two of them would never say more than three or five sentences in a conversation without mentioning their brother Gai Jun. They would mention it over and over again to cover up their feelings for his brother. Sometimes they would feel bored.
The young man mentioned by Gai Liao refers to Yang Aruo's younger brother Yang Sheng. He is nineteen years old and his appearance is much inferior to his brother. Although he started reading and literacy with the help of Yang Aruo at an early age, his qualifications are too mediocre and he does not work hard and professionally.
After several years of research, little has been achieved. If it were someone else, Gai Liao might not even take a serious look at it, but she is a brother-in-law, so naturally she cannot just sit back and ignore her own family, and plans to fight for him in the county government.
Do errands to support yourself.
Ma Zhao was not even satisfied with Yang Aruo, let alone the unmotivated Yang Sheng, so he nodded with a gloomy expression.
Gai Liao smiled bitterly in his heart and did not dare to mention it again, so as not to displease his mother. As he was talking, the servant hurried into the courtyard and whispered: "Mother, the superintendent asked to see you and said it was a big deal."
Ma Zhao and Gai Liao were both startled and looked at each other. What big event needs to alarm the family members?
Ma Zhao motioned for the people to be brought in. The governor was a descendant of the Fu family in the north. He was of the same generation as Fu Xie and Fu Xun. He was very elegant. After entering the hospital, he lowered his head and never looked around. He explained his purpose in the most concise words.
When they heard that General Lu Shuihu was attacking Beidi, his mother and daughter were frightened. Gai Liao was the first to calm down and asked a few questions quickly, all of which hit the point.
First, Gai Liao had some idea and asked the governor to step back.
"Xiao He'er..." Ma Zhaokan reacted and looked at his daughter.
Gai Liao said in a slow voice: "Mom, there is no need to worry. Since we are prepared, Lu Shuihu has nothing to worry about." Ma Zhao was relieved for a moment and then heard Gai Liao say: "Tainu will stay with my mother for the time being. I will immediately
You can return to Yingyang Zhonglang’s Mansion.”
A look of shock appeared on his face, and Ma Zhao angrily scolded: "How dare you go north at such a critical moment?"
Gai Liao comforted his son and said without changing his face: "My husband's relatives are all in the north, how can my son stay in Fuping with peace of mind?"
"..." Gai Liao's words and deeds made sense, leaving Ma Zhao speechless.
