Chapter 630: Abnormal Movement
Dai Cai and Li Xun stood in front of the map and looked at Li Xinchen at the same time.
The two of them also rushed from the barracks after receiving the news, although it was morning, they were also sweating profusely, but their expressions were equally solemn at this time, allowing the sweat to slide down their cheeks, and they didn't bother to wipe it at all.
Now that Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie have left, Dai Cai and Li Xun in Shu County are already the highest-ranking generals under Li Xinchen. However, Dai Cai and Li Xun represent the Han people and the Ba people, and they are both resourceful, and they can already represent the attitude of the generals under Li Xinchen.
Li Xinchen said in a low voice: "The news from Hanzhong has come that the enemy's soldiers and horses have gradually begun to move north. ”
"Move north, return to Guanzhong?" Dai Cai asked in a low voice.
Li Xinchen frowned, this was really unexpected, after all, according to the previous agreement between him and Wei Xiaokuan, the Northern Zhou army should be transferred to the north, but Li Xinchen never thought that these Northern Zhou troops who were still at the entrance of Hanzhong and Shu Road a few days ago would complete the retreat so quickly?
What's more, according to the intelligence, these soldiers and horses have already passed Hanzhong, and now they should have arrived at Yangping Pass.
Now that he suddenly retreats back to Guanzhong, what does Beizhou want to do?
"Could it be that there is something wrong in Guanzhong?" Li Xinchen rubbed his chin gently.
Li Xun said in a low voice: "Guanzhong is where the capital of the Zhou people is located······"
Dai Cai Huo Ran raised his head: "Could it be that there is a mess in the court of the Zhou people?" ”
Tapping lightly on his palm, Li Xinchen said in a low voice: "If there is a mess in Guanzhong, then it is reasonable for the Zhou people to urgently mobilize troops and horses, because no matter what, these defenders in Hanzhong are also the closest to Guanzhong." Moreover, the enemy's soldiers and horses in Pusaka have already moved north, while the soldiers and horses in Luoyang have already moved south to Xiangyang······ Hanzhong can even be said to be the only choice. ”
Dai Cai couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "But Hanzhong is facing us directly, and the enemy is so rashly mobilizing troops, aren't you afraid that we will take the opportunity to attack?" ”
"This can only show that the chaos is not small, and the struggle in the Zhou court should have become more and more intense." Li Xinchen said lightly, "These soldiers and horses in Hanzhong are mainly Wei Xiaokuan's subordinates, which shows that Yang Jian ······."
Dai Cai and Li Xun subconsciously glanced at each other, which showed that even if Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian didn't plan to fight, the contradiction must have reached the point of irresolvability, otherwise they would never rashly mobilize the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong.
And the transfer of soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, it is impossible for Xiangyang's Wei Chi Hui and Yu Wenxian's command in Yecheng to have no movement, but Li Xinchen has no way to receive the news for the time being. What's more, the Praetorian Guards in the capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were originally under the control of Yu Wenxian, and Yu Wenxian actually had the first advantage.
"General, without further ado, we should send outposts as soon as possible to find out the enemy's movements in Hanzhong and Fangling." Dai Cai said decisively, "Another general, shouldn't we let the armies of Jiamengguan and Sword Pavilion prepare." ”
Li Xinchen stood up Huo Ran: "Yes, give the order, let Xiao Shilian prepare for war!" And the recruits you have trained must also be prepared to reorganize and prepare to go north. ”
"This ······" Dai Cai was a little surprised, most of these recruits were recruited and trained after the war, and now it is less than a month, is Li Xinchen a little too anxious.
"The fighter plane is fleeting, just relying on Xiao Shilian's soldiers and horses, it is difficult to achieve results," Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, "Although I don't know what happened on the Zhou side, but we can't watch the show on the side, we have to add a fire to the excitement!" ”
Dai Cai and Li Xun bowed their hands at the same time: "No! ”
Of course, Li Xinchen knows that the current Bashu is not suitable for a big fight at all, and the war and the abandoned economy that have just been quelled have made Li Xinchen not have so much capital at all, if it were not for Li Xinchen to use the army to forcibly build the entire Bashu management framework, then I am afraid that Li Xinchen's system would have collapsed long ago.
But Li Xinchen didn't want to let go of this opportunity easily, Li Xinchen knew too well how much power Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian had, and he also knew how much turmoil these two people would cause once they went toe-for-tat, and it was not impossible for the entire Northern Zhou Dynasty to be torn apart by force, and the Eastern Wei and Western Wei Dynasty at the beginning were a lesson from the past.
In history, Wei Chi Hui raised troops to resist Yang Jian, and almost tore the entire north apart, but it is a pity that compared with Yu Wenxian, Wei Chi Hui is not a little worse in terms of influence, appeal and orthodoxy, and compared to Yang Jian's strength, it cannot be compared, so in the end it did not become a new confrontation situation.
And the whole process of the division of the dynasty is also the weakest time for both sides, and Li Xinchen certainly wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make profits.
If you want to deal with a weak opponent, there are many ways, and it is obviously not the best choice to attack directly, economic plundering and cultural invasion are the real means to be feared, but Li Xinchen asked himself that there is no such capital now, so although it is not safe to send troops directly, it is a choice that Li Xinchen has to make.
There is no such thing as "pie in the sky" in the world, and if you want to take advantage, you have to take a certain risk.
"General, the northern guest is here again." Li Ping walked in quickly at this time, interrupting Li Xinchen's thinking.
Li Xinchen was stunned for a moment and raised his head, this time Yang Su did not wait outside the gate, but stood directly at the door, obviously he was also a little anxious, pacing back and forth.
This guy obviously also received the news, Li Xinchen chuckled, he was worried about whether the bamboo basket would be empty if he sent troops directly, and now there is a better choice to send it to the door. I have to say that Yang Su is also a smart person.
Seeing Li Xinchen personally greet him, Yang Su also showed a smile and hurried to greet him: "General!" ”
"Brother Chudao, please!" Li Xinchen hurriedly turned to one side, "Li Ping, let the guard post disperse!" ”
Yang Su bowed slightly, looking at the map spread out on the table, he knew that Li Xinchen must also be thinking about things in Hanzhong, and immediately got straight to the point:
"General Li Xun of Hanzhong was ordered to lead the army back to Yangping Pass, and out of Yangping Pass is the road to Sanfu, but Yangping Pass is still within the scope of Hanzhong, so Li Xun's retreat to Yangping Pass is not considered to be entering Guanzhong, it is a normal defense transfer."
Li Xinchen raised his eyebrows, he didn't know this news, Yang Jian did not directly let Li Xun lead his troops into Guanzhong, indicating that the Chang'an side has not yet developed to the point of incompatibility, and the two sides still maintain the last trace of forbearance.
This situation is obviously not as good as Li Xinchen expected, thinking of this, Li Xinchen also took a breath of cool air, if it wasn't for Yang Su to send this news over in time, Li Xinchen is likely to make a wrong judgment and rashly send troops.
