Chapter 146

After leaving Nie County, he was temporarily stationed next to the town on Jiuyun Mountain Road, and after resting for a few days, Xu Hui received a message from Guyuan County. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jiang Hua and Liu Zhanguo lived up to their trust, not only defending Gu Yuan, but also giving the enemy a beautiful blow. Although it was not due to the lack of manpower, Gu Yuan's garrison was relatively lax, and the large households in the city and even the management were more or less unfeasible, which led to them inflicting heavy losses on the enemy. But whether it was the previous counterattack or the current good news, it undoubtedly put heavy pressure on the other party, greatly damaged their morale, and also made the other party retreat in embarrassment and flee in despair.

"I have sent a letter to Captain Jiang and asked him to act according to my orders." At the regular meeting, Xu Hui was the first to sit in the first place, and said in a plain but determined tone, "There are many fertile fields in Taiyuan County, especially outside the county, and now it is almost the autumn harvest season. When the time comes, there is no need to attack the city, just cut rice and wheat outside the city for a few days, and some people will not be able to sit still. ”

She spoke briskly, the corners of her lips rose slightly, and everyone laughed more or less at the thought of that scene.

The fertile land outside the county seat of Daqi did not belong to the people, but was divided and divided equally by many families and became their private property. If the army of the Shangdang Xu clan cuts wheat outside the county of Taiyuan, it will undoubtedly cut the flesh of those big families who regard money as their lives, and these families who can influence the situation of a city and a county, and even speak well in the county, will continue to put pressure on the county commander and others to force them to send troops. After all, a large part of the so-called family members do not care about any "overall situation", only know their own interests, and only stare at their own one-third of an acre, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are short-sighted, but they are just a good guy.

Because of this, both the Han and the Hu people like to send troops in the autumn harvest season, not to mention the convenience of their own food supply, the enemy's morale will also be greatly frustrated.

Thinking of such a good scene, everyone's hearts were overjoyed, only to feel that victory was in front of them, fame and fortune were within reach, and they were all excited. Su Can and Zhou Mo exchanged a look, and didn't say anything for the time being, and after the meeting was over, before they could say anything, Xu Lin said: "The general must not ...... because of the previous big victory As soon as we enter Taiyuan, in the end, we are alone, if we are like Hu people, all of them are proficient in riding and shooting, everyone has a war horse, coming and going like the wind, the enemy can not surround it, burn and loot for a while and run, but it is just that. In our ranks, foot soldiers account for the majority, and the siege equipment is really insufficient, the enemy only needs to transfer troops from the neighboring counties to surround us, and we will ......."

Probably because of Xu Hui's mood, Xu Lin's words were intermittent and paused several times, which showed his hesitation. But these incoherent words revealed Xu Lin's meaning.

Xu Hui not only didn't think he was angry, but laughed softly, and asked, "How could Uncle Zhong Ning think that we are alone?" ”

"Isn't it ......"

Facing the blazing gaze of Xu Lin and the generals for a moment, Xu Hui nodded imperceptibly and gave a positive reply: "The moment the news was sent to Changzi County, the army that was originally standing still had already moved to this side!" This time, the army will be led by my third uncle and brother, you can rest assured. ”

Hearing this news, everyone was determined, and they only felt that the follow-up was powerful, and they were not afraid at all. Only Su Can didn't show a trace, but looked at Xu Hui's expression very carefully, and saw that her expression was calm and calm, there was no haze in her eyes, and there was no resentment and unwillingness, so she couldn't help but ponder.

This kind of look, is it ...... Has she resigned herself to her fate? No, instead of saying this, she was mentally prepared for the matter of exploring the way for the pioneer, or what Xu Fujun said to her early on, so that she could be so calm and unwilling to be overpowered. But if it's been a long time...... Thinking of Liu Zhan's faint meaning, and then thinking about his own experience all along, Su Can shook the feather fan lightly, and showed a slightly profound smile very firmly.

People's hearts are not stones, and they can't afford to grind again and again, even if they are close relatives, in the case of repeated concessions by one party, if the other party does not grasp the measure, it will not be so beautiful.

Hearing that the reinforcements are not far behind him, and they can catch up in half a month at most, the whole army is extremely excited, and they are going to Taiyuan before they are gone, and they are unwilling to go deep alone.

The Jiuyun Mountain Road was originally controlled by the Shangdang Xu clan, but now that the passage is blocked, there are no caravans coming and going, and naturally the army will be pulled out, without any obstacles.

Taiyuan County, which is the closest to Nie County, is nothing else, it is a historical celebrity, "the external move does not avoid revenge, and the internal move does not avoid relatives" Qi Huangyang, that is, the fief of Jin Dafu Ji Xi.

Ji Xi took the land as his surname and changed his name to Qi Huangyang, even if many years passed, the descendants of the Qi family did not regain the scenery of the past, and the people who ruled Qi County changed one stubble after another, but many ancient things were preserved. For example, the location of Qi County, such as the scope of responsibility of Qi County officials, such as the extremely prosperous literary style of Qi County, and the relatively simple folk customs...... This county, which is surrounded by mountains on both sides and water on both sides, is not only surrounded by rich land, but also easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Due to the support of the upcoming army behind him, and the fact that Qi County was really difficult to attack, Xu Hui also slowed down his progress. She ordered the army to be divided into several teams, harvesting the wheat fields located in the northwest of Qi County in an orderly manner, and with her personal entourage, standing on the hills, looking at the lush mountains and forests in the southeast, and looking at the golden wheat fields in the northwest, she sighed with emotion: "No wonder the people of the Taiyuan Dou clan all advocate luxury, Taiyuan Guangqi County, not to mention the three counties that can be our party, even if they collect the same tax, they can be much richer than us." ”

As soon as these words came out, people who knew a little bit about geography nodded frequently, and they all felt that Xu Hui's words were extremely correct, and the two young Lang Jun behind Zhuang Qi were even more exaggerated, they tried to sniff their noses, as if smelling the fragrance of rice and wheat could lift their spirits.

The southeast of Qi County is mostly mountainous, with overlapping peaks and valleys, all of which are covered by shrubs, suitable for forest and grazing; From southeast to northwest, it is hilly, with abundant grain and forests; The plain area, located in the northwest of Qi County, has flat terrain, fertile soil and abundant water sources. As far as the eye can see, all of them are fertile fields, and the output of one season, not to mention more than 100,000 stones, this number is not terrible, and it is enough to make anyone's eyes red, not to mention the surrounding areas of Qi County, as well as Wu County, Yangyi and other places, all of which are the kind that definitely symbolizes favor even if they are the fiefdoms of the emperor and princess.

Looking at the green and golden in front of him, Xu Hui's heart was hot, but he quickly calmed down.

The land of Taiyuan is fertile and extremely rich, but there are many plains that are terrifying. If the Yanmen can't be defended, Taiyuan will be lost at a terrible speed, and every time, the Hu people will run wild in this fertile land, coming and going like the wind, beating them Han people lose their temper. What's more, everyone knows that Taiyuan is fertile, and if the Shangdang Xu family gets this place, it will definitely become the target of public criticism...... Of course, since they have decided to compete for the world, they don't care about attracting people's eyes. Even if the current strength is not enough, we have to be cautious step by step, like walking on thin ice, this rich land will definitely be taken down.

"The county order of Qi County really has some ability." Thinking of this, Xu Hui snorted coldly, and then said as if to himself, "Three days, their limit should be almost there, right?" ”

As Xu Hui expected, Qi County Commander Sun Jie faced such a scene, and the words "anxious" were not enough to describe his current situation.

Although Sun Jie did not understand military affairs, he had some common sense and understood that the geographical location of Qi County was very good, and if the enemy wanted to attack, he could not attack it without spending great effort. For them, the best way is to stay in the city and wait for reinforcements, and Sun Jie also sent someone to Jinyang to deliver the letter, and decided to wait for Dou Kai to make a decision, and temporarily shrink, but the problem is precisely here!

Taiyuan County Shou Dou Kai is a person who seems to be greedy for money and lustful, but in fact he is very suspicious and has a heavier desire for power. Since he was born as a leader, he was the last thing he could see his generals forming a party for personal gain, for fear that they would repeat their mistakes and seek to seize his rights. For this reason, he deliberately instigated the discord between civilian officials and military generals, and in order to keep his official position, everyone followed his heart and created one or two enemies. In this way, not to mention that the county commanders in a county town have very little contact with the county lieutenants, the county magistrates of the neighboring counties are acceptable, and when the county lieutenants meet, they know that they are colleagues, and those who don't know still think that they have encountered some mortal enemy.

Xu Hui and Xu Ze both knew this, and they understood even more that once something happened, the counties of the Dou clan in Taiyuan would never say that they were "in a hurry to follow the power" -- they had to report the news to Dou Kai first, and then Dou Kai would decide how to transfer troops and how to send generals. That's why she calmly ordered the soldiers to cut the rice and wheat on the spot, putting the other party in a dilemma.

Sending troops without authorization, or directly asking for help from neighboring counties, may resolve the adversity in front of you, and may even turn defense into offense, but you have committed Dou Kai's big taboo. With the patience of this prince, he will not touch you at first, and he will hold you high, but after a year and a half, you will have to go to prison, and I don't know if it will be in this world. And if you keep waiting, wait until Dou Kai sends someone to come...... For so long, the rice and wheat could almost be collected by the army of the Shangdang Xu family, and the big families in the city were guaranteed to be furious, thinking that this year's harvest was all gone, and he didn't know how to arrange Sun Jie in front of Dou Kai.

This person, no matter how deep the affection is, he can't withstand the perseverance of people, not to mention that Dou Kai is not a lenient person.

Advance is death, retreat is death, Sun Jie, how will you choose? (To be continued.) )
