The location Qin Jin refers to is in Ruyang and Yingzhou, which are key points between the control of Dugi Province and Huainan. Its intention to guard against Huainan is also obvious, and the more it seems to be superior, it is even more necessary to be vigilant and cautious at all times. If someone stabs you in the back in a pinch, it's not beautiful.

"The Huainan soldiers are just a group of rabble, it is better to drive the traitors in Huaixi to Huainan and let them also taste the methods concocted by themselves!"

Yang Xingben sneered a few times, looked down on Huainan soldiers, and felt that just guarding was not enough. Qin Jin thought for a while, but still shook his head and said:

"Our current situation can't have the slightest sloppiness in this matter, Huainan can pull the skin, but the Shenwu Army can't afford it, end the rebels in these two places as soon as possible, and concentrate the main energy on Hebei, if tens of thousands of traitors are chased between the two Huai, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents. ”

"And it is!"

Thinking of the Shenwu Army quelling the rebellion in front of the stage, and constantly guarding against stabbing people behind him, Yang Xing was a little gnashing of teeth.

"Especially now that Luoyang has been recovered, some people will feel that the general trend has been decided, and they may not have any scruples in their actions!"

Yang Xingben smashed his fist on the desk again.

"These pigs and dogs, sooner or later, they will clean them up one by one. ”

Qin Jin smiled and asked:

"Are you tidy?"

This question made him stunned, and he couldn't help but ask himself, can you kill cleanly under the darkness of the enemy and me? Not to mention that this is still a situation where you have me and I have you.

"Pack it up one by one, you can't be cheap these sinister villains!"

"Insidious villain?"

Qin Jin asked with a wry smile.

"They don't think they are villains, for the safety of the court and the world, but they are very righteous. ”

In fact, if you look at both sides from the perspective of a bystander, it is difficult to determine which side will stand on the moral high ground.

"What, what the fuck could be more embarrassing than this?

Qin Jin was silent for a while, with his understanding of the current situation, that kind of devastating situation would not be possible in a few decades, and the contradictions between the imperial court and the local government had already appeared in the middle of Li Longji's reign, and this contradiction was still intensifying over time. In addition, there is also the contradiction between Hu and Han, Li Tang has accepted too many Hu people in the 100 years of his rule, and he cannot fully Sinicize these Hu people, and the two parts are entangled with each other, which makes the contradiction infinitely magnified and intensified.

Now, on top of these two, there is a real threat of warlords, and with the factional strife within the imperial court, it seems like a mess, how can it be possible to sort out the clues?

Yang Xingben still thought about the problems they encountered too simply, if they could really solve these troubles by killing alone, things would be extremely simple.

But the reality is that the situation is much more complicated, just like Cui Lian and Fang Xuan, who can become unwavering allies at some moments, but at other moments, they may become enemies who can be restrained or stabbed.

"Since the doctor knows that the villain is on his side, why does he still leave the hidden danger of Fang Xuan by his side? Send him back to Chang'an and let the bastards in the court deal with it!"

Speaking of this, Yang Xingben paused, seemingly hesitating, but finally said:

"Judging by the last general, Fang Xuan will be a disaster sooner or later, and now this person has a lot of secrets, I'm afraid it's a big disaster!"

Qin Jin Dao:

"That's why you looked at him. ”

Yang Xingben disagreed.

"Why bother? If he controls the private sector, he will beat ...... rake."

For his worries, in Qin Jin's opinion, it is unnecessary, the private sector has a sound system, and there are special personnel in charge of ideological work, if Fang Xuan only tried to mix sand to cultivate party henchmen with the intention of plotting misdeeds, it would be a bit whimsical.

Under the present circumstances, the private system is even more sound than that of the Shenwu Army, and many regulations are even more strictly enforced than those in the military. Because after all, the soldiers still have to fight, and many systems can only be dealt with expediently at critical moments. And the private enterprises that are produced under this sound system are not just a person who can cover the sky with one hand, or use personal influence to achieve some ulterior purposes.

Moreover, Fang Xuan does not have the corresponding prestige in the Shenwu army and in the private sector, and the reason why he can command in the private sector is because of Qin Jin's trust, and once the trust is no longer there, it will be like a salary from the bottom of the kettle.

Even so, Qin Jin did not relax his vigilance, and let the thoughtful Yang Xingben watch this person, so as to maximize the benefits of the Shenwu Army. After all, Fang Xuan does have something to do in the overall planning of the private sector, and with this person, the formation speed of the private sector is at least thirty percent faster than before.

Time is an absolutely scarce resource for the Shenwu Army, and the formation speed of the private sector determines the speed of the Shenwu Army's march to a certain extent.

Regarding the understanding of the so-called war, Qin Jin never thought that this was just a confrontation between the two armies, and under the protracted war, it was more about manpower, materials, and people's hearts. All factors are taken into account, and only when the sum of all factors is much greater than the enemy's will the hope of victory tend to be maximized.

It's just that Qin Jin's ideas are not the mainstream consciousness in the Shenwu Army, so he rarely mentions these reasons, and just puts everything that should be done as a system of rules and regulations.

The existence of the private sector is to bring together all kinds of favorable factors, like gathering sand into a tower, and become a solid foundation for the Shenwu Army.

More than eighty or ninety percent of the people at that time were illiterate, and compared with the uneducated people who were scholars, they were more likely to be brainwashed, not that Qin Jin intended to engage in any policy of fooling the people, but just applied the collectivism he was familiar with to put everyone in a set environment to further stimulate their obedience.

This is the so-called thousand people with the same face, like an arm to make a finger. Qin Jincai would not believe that any bullshit system such as "democracy" and "freedom" would make the country more cohesive and combative with an advanced attitude.

There is no good or evil in politics itself, and if you formulate and implement a system with personal emotions and an individual perspective, you will only get lost in the illusion of creating Elysium. The real world is cruel, and it is only by letting go of those personal moral concepts and preferences that it is possible to achieve the ultimate goal.

Therefore, whether to give the people more freedom or more control, it is easy to choose. As is the case now, if they are given too much freedom, it will only make the people a plate of loose sand, which can be used by neither the Tang Dynasty nor the traitors.

In the end, the battle was like cutting leeks, the Tang Dynasty requisitioned a batch of Minzhuang into the battlefield, and the rebels requisitioned a batch of Minzhuang battlefields. However, if the originally scattered people were organized to realize their great potential, although a certain amount of freedom would be lost, the lives of the vast majority of people would be saved......

"Doctor, doctor?"

I don't know when, Xue Huan was already standing in front of Qin Jin. He was distracted for a while, thinking about a lot of things, and in the end, nothing would change the strategy that had been set before.

"What?"

Xue Huan bowed and said:

"The soldiers were full of indignation, and they all shouted that they wanted to give the gang of dog thieves in Huainan some color, it was better to send troops ......"

Qin Jin immediately waved his hand and interrupted his request.

"You don't have to pay attention to the affairs of Huainan, gather the troops to repair it as soon as possible, and we will leave within three days!"

"Going, where are you going?"

Xue Huan was surprised, he didn't expect to make a big move so soon, and he forgot Huainan who stabbed him in the back for a while.

"Go back to Hedong, the final battle against the rebels is getting closer and closer, and unnecessary troubles must be less provoked if they can be provoked. The corner of Huainan is fundamentally not enough to threaten the foundation of the Shenwu Army, and there is no need to use force at all!"

In fact, Qin Jin had just given birth to an idea to spread the private sector to Huaixi and Huaibei, and this kind of paramilitary organization would become a powerful barrier, as long as there was any change in the direction of Huainan, it would inevitably fall into the encirclement of the people.

It's just that the idea is good, but the biggest problem in implementation is time, and the formation of the private sector is not something that can be accomplished overnight, and it will take as little as three or five months, or even one or two years before it can form an effective cohesion and combat effectiveness.

In addition to Hedong, the more successful implementation of the private sector is in several counties north of Weishui in Guanzhong. Among them, especially Hedong is the most, after all, there are several years of accumulation, and the private enterprises in several counties in the south have even directly pulled out an elite division.

This is also one of the reasons why Qin and Jin attached great importance to Hedong. After all, it is the foundation of the Shenwu Army, and it is time to go to Hedong, reintegrate the two most elite and core forces of the Shenwu Army, and deal the final fatal blow to Shi Siming, who is entrenched in Hebei Province.

It's just that this idea is easy to think about, but it is not easy to put it into practice. The rebels in Hebei Province almost preserved more than half of the elite of the rebels, and more than half of them were Hu people, with amazing combat effectiveness, and they were different from the people of the Tang Dynasty, and they had no sense of identity with the Central Plains court. When the Tang Dynasty was strong, they could submit to the Tang Dynasty on the basis of submission to the strong. But now the Tang Dynasty has been beaten into dogs looking for teeth all over the ground, losing their reverence for the strong, and these once submissive jackals have once again shown their fangs and claws.

What Qin Jin and the Shenwu Army had to face was such a group of people, and this trip north was not so much a counterinsurgency war as a decisive battle with foreign enemies.

This idea is somewhat incompatible with the mainstream view within the central government of the Tang Dynasty, in their view, whether it is the Hu people or the Han people, Hebei Province is just a contest between the royal division and the rebels, and to see the problem so simply is tantamount to misestimating the situation, how can it be possible to achieve final victory?
