Qin Jin also had another intention in recruiting Tian Chenghei, that is, this person had been a general under An Lushan for many years, and he was very familiar with these rebels from Youyan, so he might be able to find an unexpected breakthrough in this person. Therefore, even if Tian Chenghe's performance is too cowardly, he doesn't care.

"General Tian's prestige and Qin's reputation are like thunder, and I finally saw it today...... Haha......"

I wanted to say that Tian Chenghei was better than meeting him, but Qin Jin still didn't want to lose this person's face in public after all, so he only laughed, and the rest of the words were no longer spoken.

The cold sweat on Tian Chengsi's face had already flowed like a stream, and he didn't dare to raise his sleeves to wipe his sweat, so he only replied in a dry voice:

"The last general, the doctor is so commensurate, ashamed, terrified!"

This is the truth, Tian Chengsi really can't understand what kind of prestige he has that can make the world-famous Doctor Qin thunderous.

Qin Jin smiled and didn't explain much, what he really heard was Tian Chenghei, who founded Wei Bojun Town, but he didn't want to be this cautious and submissive Tian Chenghe.

"Presumably you already know the news of the defeat of the Prime Minister of Fang, how is it, what do you think?"

"This ......"

Tian Chengsi was speechless for a while, to be honest, when the news of Fang Xuan's defeat had just reached Tongguan, he was very frightened, for fear that the Tang Dynasty would really just return to the past, and there would be nothing left to lose this big gamble. But after Qin Jin arrived at Tongguan with the Shenwu Army, his worries gradually disappeared, and a thought that even he was a little unbelievable had in his heart.

"The last general is dull, stupid, and doesn't dare to comment!"

"To put it bluntly, Qin Mou led the troops to the east this time, and there is another important purpose, that is, to recruit capable people, if General Tian does not express his heart directly, how can he know whether he is a hero or a bear?"

To deal with this kind of person, Qin Jin did not detour around the corner, went straight to the point, and explained his original intention. If Tian Chengsi still has a little IQ, he will definitely have some understanding.

"Please forgive the last general, the defeat of Luoyang is eighty percent on Fang Xianggong!"

"Oh?"

Qin Jin became interested at the time, and at this time, most people's opinions were that Fang Xuan fell for the tricks of the thieves and rebels, so he ended up in defeat and did not know whether he was alive or dead. It is not easy for someone to finally dare to speak out against the public. It was also at this time that he realized that he had underestimated the Tian Chenghei in front of him.

I saw Tian Chengsi straighten up, with a solemn face, and said eloquently:

"Although Fang Xianggong is good at political affairs, it is too child's play to lead troops, and it is not surprising that he will be defeated by copying the tactics in the military book!"

"General Tian is talking about the prime minister?"

Tian Chengsi nodded repeatedly.

As the doctor said, the world only saw the prime minister of the house driving straight into the city of Luoyang. The actual situation is that before Luoyang, there was no decent battle!"

At this time, Qin Yan, who was standing beside Qin Jin, retorted disapprenousively:

"That's not right, Fang Xianggong cut tens of thousands, and he also reported to the Jingshi, how can you say that you didn't fight a big war?

Tian Chengsi peeked at Qin Yan for a moment, and quickly withdrew his gaze, with many years of experience in stammering and greeting, he could conclude at a glance that this bearded captain must be Qin Jin's cronies, and he must not be offended. Not only can you not offend, but you have to be careful to stutter.

The general questioned that the last general had this idea before, but when he learned about it, it was Fang Xianggong who forcibly suppressed the local regimental soldiers who rebelled against the thieves. ”

"What is forcible and forceful?"

Qin Yan seemed rude, but in fact, his mind was quite delicate, and he immediately sensed a strange taste from Tian Chengsi's words.

Tian Chengsi sighed and spread his hands.

"The last general later heard that the local regimental soldiers who defected were planning to return to the imperial court, but the minister said that those people had rebelled repeatedly and must not be tolerated, so there were tens of thousands of gains. ”

Qin Jin was in the middle and observed the words, and he could basically conclude that Tian Chengsi was not lying, but in fact, Tian Chengsi did not dare to lie at this time. If Fang Xuan really did this, it seems that it is not surprising that he has the defeat of Luoyang.

"General Tian thinks who is the general of the Luoyang rebels?"

As far as Qin Jin knew, the famous figures in the An'an Rebel Army, such as Cui Qianyou and Sun Xiaozhe, had already been defeated, and he really couldn't judge for a while that he could still lead the rebels in Luoyang City.

I saw that Tian Chengsi thought about it for a while, and then said:

The last general privately speculated that if it wasn't Ashina Chengqing, it would be Yin Ziqi. ”

"Tell me about the origin of these two people!"

As far as the truth is concerned, Qin Jin is still very unfamiliar with these two people, but since Tian Chengsi is sure that it is them, then there must be a strong reason.

"Ashina Chengqing and Yin Ziqi are both generals of the Jin Dynasty, and they are brave and good at fighting, and they are not inferior to Sun Xiaozhe and Cui Qianyou in terms of ability. Moreover, at this time, Luoyang City is only afraid that the King of Jin is already covering the sky with one hand, so how can he use the side candidates?

Qin Jin's heart moved, and he suddenly asked:

"Could it be that An Lushan is dead?"

……

Early the next morning, Qin Jin issued a military order, with Qin Yan and Tian Chengsi as the left and right vanguards, leading 10,000 troops to attack first, and the main force of the army slowly advanced, following closely behind.

Qin Jin was still very cautious when he went east this time, and did not choose the tactics of opening and closing, since the Luoyang rebels could brake quietly, once they got the plan, I am afraid they would no longer rein in their edge. Fang Xuan's defeat was due to the fact that he was talking on paper, and the other was that he was deceived by illusions and underestimated the enemy.

After Tian Chengsi's introduction, Qin Jin had a general understanding of several fierce generals under the command of An Qingxu, the king of the puppet Jin Dynasty, and it turned out that they were not all straw bales, and generals like Ashina Chengqing and Yin Ziqi were all experienced in a hundred battles and bravely crowned the three armies. Come to think of it, they are all fighting against the Khitans in the north all the year round, if they are vulnerable, wouldn't they lose the prestige of the Youyan border army?

Therefore, Qin and Jin's gradual use of troops was to try to fight steadily and steadily, and he came prepared for this eastward trip, and everywhere he went, he organized private enterprises with the township as the basic unit.

In the era of cold weapons in the agricultural society, the root of the war lies in the population, and the formation of private enterprises is to fundamentally eliminate the opportunity for the rebels to make a comeback. Before the imperial court completely recovered the lost territory and sent officials to arrive, the land east of Tongguan and the places where the Shenwu army passed were consolidated with private formations.

The army of Shenwu Army was mighty, along the high saka on the south bank of the Yellow River, calmly crossed the old pass of Hangu in the Qin and Han dynasties. Qin Jin immediately looked south on a high ground, and his eyes were full of bare black and yellow, dotted with pinches of green. Originally, it was a lush mulberry forest, but after the fire in the winter of Tianbao's 14th year, it has not yet recovered. In fact, it would have been impossible to build a forest again on this high mountain without thirty or fifty years of hard work.

"There is the old road of Hangu Pass, I can't imagine a thousand years of vicissitudes, and the place where the original husband was the pass no longer exists!"

Yang Xingben was half a horse's head behind Qin Jin, looking at Qin Jin with emotion, but he was not affected in any way.

"The waterway of the Yellow River moved northward, revealing this large area of tidal flats, and the dangerous terrain on which Hangu Pass depended naturally disappeared. Otherwise, why did Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty move Hangu Guandong to Xin'an?"

Speaking of Xin'an, Yang Xingben's eyes were a little strange.

"Xin'an is the land of the doctor, this comeback, the great cause will be accomplished!"

Qin Jin turned his head away, glanced at Yang Xingben, and was noncommittal.

After crossing the old road of Hangu Pass, the number of defeated soldiers encountered along the way gradually increased, and Qin Jin led his troops to collect while marching, but he collected tens of thousands of people in half a day.

Qin Jin hoped to find a house among these deserters, but unfortunately after a careful search, there was no shadow of the defeated prime minister.

After arriving in Shaanzhou, nearly 10,000 people collected along the way were resettled on the spot and put into private enterprises. Qin Jin did not plan to bring these remnants of the army, the war in the era of cold weapons was the most taboo to bring a rout, once the army lost its strength, it would spread as quickly as an infectious disease, and it would be difficult to boost morale. In order not to affect the Shenwu army, and in order to save the shortage of food, the most suitable way is to resettle the reassembled defeated troops on the spot.

These defeated soldiers are also very happy to stay in the local area, after all, it is more attractive to stay in the local area to eat, drink and live than to return to the battlefield to die.

"Doctor, from Hanguguan to Shaanzhou, counting the defeated soldiers, there are less than 50,000 private posts!"

Yang Xingben was stunned by the statistics sent by his subordinates, he could never have imagined that the once prosperous and wealthy land of Heluo in Guanzhong had actually been depressed to this point, and it was very difficult to even gather 50,000 people in a land of hundreds of miles.

"There is no need to make a fuss, the war is stacked, the people flee, and those who did not flee were also pulled by the thieves and rebels, and the survivors really experienced nine deaths, not easy, not easy!"

"There is a more troublesome problem, the people of Kanto seem to have a lot of resistance to the imperial court, and many people in the countryside are, all of them are forcibly conscripted into the private ......"

This question that Yang Xingben said made Qin Jin frown, what is the difference between such a forcible conquest and the thief rebels?

"The people of Kwantung do not understand the policy of the Shenwu Army, and some resistance is normal, the situation in the Kwantung region is complicated, and the people's integration into the private sector must be based on the principle of voluntariness, or to strengthen ideological work, to persuade and educate the mainstay, as long as the local people can understand that our Shenwu Army not only provides food, but also protects the territory and the people, I believe that the vast majority of people will enthusiastically join. ”

The doctor doesn't know the character of the people, and once he compromises with them, it will be even more difficult to manage in the future. ”

Qin Jin waved his hand and interrupted Yang Xingben's words.

"Have you forgotten the instructions of the Shenwu Army? How did you carry out the instructions of the Shenwu Army well when you were in Guanzhong, and then you forgot everything as soon as you left the Guanzhong?
