After this operation, time flies. And the Huashan Army, because of this meritorious award, everyone felt very happy. And those who have not made meritorious contributions have secretly made up their minds in their hearts, preparing to make meritorious contributions next time.

After the end of the war at the beginning of the first month, the Huashan army and the Fu Qin forces were basically in a state where the well water did not interfere with the river water. By the time Li Xin's meritorious deeds were rewarded, it was already the end of January.

After a rest, the Huashan Army is now full of combat effectiveness again. It's just that due to the losses in previous battles, now the entire Huashan Army is counted, and there are only about 4,000 people who can really go to the battlefield immediately.

"The personnel of each team must be replenished immediately, otherwise, once there is an emergency, we will definitely lack strength!" Li Xin, who was sitting at the top, glanced at everyone and said.

Today's Huashan Army has slowly formed a fixed routine. Unless it is an urgent matter, Li Xin usually summons all the generals of the Huashan Army to discuss the matter on the fifteenth day of each month and at the end of the month.

Since he was still in the midst of a confrontation with the enemy, in order not to delay the military situation, Li Xin put the place of discussion in the county government of Zheng County. And from the seats at the time of the meeting, it can basically be seen that the problem of Huashan Army is now.

Sitting on the right side of Li Xin were the civil officials headed by Wang Meng, and there were only six or seven people in total, including Xu Fuzi and Lao Ma. Counting the later promotions from the original officials in the counties, the total number is now only fifteen or sixteen.

But there were already more than two dozen officers sitting on the left side of the team alone, not to mention some who had not come. Although Li Xin saw this problem, he had no choice, because the training of a civil official was much more difficult than that of a military general, and it was more difficult to read and write just by reading and writing.

Although it was said that Wang Meng had already started to teach a group of people before, the time was still short and it was not of great use at all. Fortunately, this problem has not been fully revealed, after all, the territory is still small.

"The expansion of the army is indeed an urgent matter, but it is only a matter of recruitment, and I am afraid it is not easy. After all, if the time has come today, everyone has to be busy with farming. Otherwise, I'm afraid that we people will even have a problem eating! Speaking of this, Wang Meng spoke first.

"That's a real problem. With our three counties, it is already a lot of pressure to support thousands of troops, and if we delay the agricultural time, there will really be a big mess! Zhou Fang nodded in agreement.

"The people can't move for the time being, there was almost no stability last year, and this year they should be allowed to produce with peace of mind. Moreover, this year is the first year since our Huashan Army took charge of the three counties, and we must make achievements and fulfill our original promises. Otherwise, we will lose our integrity in front of the people, and the consequences will be serious for us. However, the issue of soldiers cannot be delayed! So be it! Those captives have been around for so long, so let's choose some from among them! However, don't force them, ask if anyone is willing to join the Huashan Army. Of course, the rules of the Huashan Army have to be explained to them clearly! This matter, Tian He, you can do it! Li Xin heard the words of the two and groaned for a while before saying.

"Yes, my subordinates will deal with this matter later!" Tian He heard this, and hurriedly stood up and answered.

"Well, by the way, those new recruits will be arranged in the training camp for the time being, and after the training, they will be unified to supplement the teams!" Li Xin nodded and explained again.

Everyone said yes in unison, and then a few other things were discussed, and this time the discussion was basically over. Today's Huashan Army does not have so much red tape, and everyone speaks concisely and clearly, so it is naturally much more efficient to do things.

"This year is not destined to be a peaceful year, everyone must be mentally prepared, perhaps, our Huashan Army has a chance to soar into the sky this year!" When it was over, Li Xin said as if he was joking.

As everyone got along with Li Xin for a long time, they gradually understood some of his novel words and knew what psychological preparation was. Although I don't know exactly what will happen, everyone still keeps it in their hearts.

Soon after the end of this discussion, it entered February, and soon the news that shook the pass, and even shook the world, spread.

In February of the tenth year of Yonghe, that is, in February 354 AD, the general of the Jin expedition to the west, the three divisions of the Kaifu Yitong, and the Gonghuan Wen of Linhe County waved the northern expedition to Fu Qin, and set off from Jiangling with 40,000 foot horses, crossed Xiangyang and other places, and came to Wuguan.

To the west of Wuguan, at this time it was the place where Fu Qin Jingzhou was governed. Before Fu Jing pacified Shangluo, the Qin court set up Jingzhou in Fengyang River, that is, Shanyang County in later generations, and sent Guo Jing to guard here. Now that I heard that Huan Wen went north, of course, Pegasus immediately reported to Chang'an.

As soon as he heard the news, Fu Jian was shocked and immediately summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

"Huan Wen personally mentioned that tens of thousands of troops came from the south, and there was a plot to Guanzhong, how do you think you should deal with it?" Above the court, Fu Jian asked worriedly.

Since Fu Qin established himself in Guanzhong, it can be said that he is facing the biggest crisis at this moment. The previous rebellions, the former Liang Qiuchi, etc., are nothing compared to Huan Wen's army.

"According to the news obtained by the spies, Huan Wen marched quickly, with the help of the navy, from Jiangling to Xichuan, where it is not far from Wuguan, we must prepare in advance. In addition, it is reported that Sima Xun of Hanzhong was also ordered to go on an expedition and will come from the south of the Meridian Road, so he needs to prepare in advance. Tai Lieutenant Lei Xiao'er spoke first.

"A few years ago, Huan Wen pacified Shu and became the Han Kingdom, and since then he has held the authority of Jiangzuo, which is no better than ordinary generals! The matter has come to this, we can only do our best, otherwise, the court is in danger. Prime Minister Fu Xiong was originally supervising the battle against Huyan Poison in the overlord, but because of this incident, he was summoned back by Fu Jian, and he also said at this time.

"If we go all out to deal with it, it means that we have to mobilize all the troops in Guanzhong together, so how should the rebellion in Guanzhong be handled? Especially the Huashan army, has become a confidant, if no one is around to restrain them, I am afraid that when we fight with Huan Wen, it is their opportunity to make waves! Sikong Yuzun shook his head, a little worried.

"No, you can't stop Huan Wen. This battle is related to the survival of the imperial court, and as for the rebels, they are all scabies. If we defeat Huan Wen, these rebels will naturally collapse without a fight, and we will have more time to pacify them. If we don't stop Huan Wen and the court falls, even if these rebellions are quelled, what's the use? Fu Xiong explained.

As soon as these words came out, most of the important ministers in the court couldn't help but nod. Obviously, they all felt that there was nothing wrong with this, after all, in this situation, of course, the safety of the imperial court should be ensured first. After all, it's fundamental.

"The prime minister's words are reasonable, our biggest enemy at present is Huan Wen, who is menacing and cannot be careless. Oh, I have made up my mind, and I will raise the soldiers and horses in the pass to reject Huan Wen. Fu Jian listened to this, made up his mind in his heart, and said.

"Your Majesty, the Huan Wen army is coming from the south, the road is long, and the military needs are sluggish, so it must refer to the wheat in Guanzhong as military food. In the opinion of the ministers, we might as well cut off all the wheat and wait for it. If they have no food, they will not be able to last, so our chances of winning will be greatly increased! At this moment, Fu Xiong proposed.

"The prime minister's words are reasonable, although this plan is also disadvantageous to the imperial court. But in order to repel the Huan Wen army, it had to be like this! Quickly gather the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong to resist Huan Wen! Fu Jian listened, and after a deep groan, he finally nodded and agreed.

Soon, the Qin court began to act, and the soldiers and horses from all over Guanzhong began to be mobilized. If it weren't for the fact that time was too tight, I am afraid that they would have mobilized the armies of Longyou and Hedong.

As soon as the Fu Qin court moved, Li Xin's side quickly got the news, the most obvious thing was that the Fu Jing army fortified on the north bank of Weishui was significantly reduced. To the west of the water, the wall was completely built and waited, and there was no longer the slightest intention of attacking.

"Huan Wen went north, as soon as tens of thousands of troops came out, Fu Qin had to go all out, compared to this disaster of destroying the family and destroying the country, we uprisers are insignificant. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that our Huashan Army was feared by them, I'm afraid that even this soldier and horse would not have been left! After getting the news, Li Xin naturally immediately called everyone to a meeting.

Everyone who heard the news showed joy. After all, he was trapped here and couldn't move during this time, and now it seems that the opportunity for the Huashan Army is really coming soon. Thinking of what Li Xin said to himself and others last time, the generals felt more and more that he had the ability to predict the future, and the eyes that looked at him were full of awe.

"This is a great opportunity for us and we can't afford to miss it. The previous recruitment was generally going well, and as soon as the captives heard that they could join the Huashan Army, they all agreed. If you don't face such a great opportunity, you can choose it slowly. But now, I have decided to expand our armaments again, so that our strength will reach 10,000. With these troops, we will probably be able to deal with the next Guanzhong rebellion! Seeing everyone's expressions, Li Xin continued.

"An army of ten thousand? Isn't that a little too much? As soon as he heard this, the people below immediately began to talk about it.

"It's not much, look at Huan Wen and Fu Jian, there are tens of thousands of troops at every turn, if we don't have some family background, what will we do to fight for this opportunity!"

"That's it, just 10,000 people, I still think it's too little. If there are 100,000 troops, we will directly occupy Guanzhong! ”

Everyone said a word, and the heated discussion began, and Li Xin did not say anything to stop it. After waiting for a while, he turned his gaze to Wang Meng, who was closest to him. And Wang Meng also looked at it at this time, obviously having something to say. 166 Reading Network
