Chapter 46
It is said that Jing Ran went to Boyang after bidding farewell to Gongsun Zhi the next day, and Baoyu could finally follow Jing Ran to the battlefield after leaving Jing Ran for more than ten days. The master and servant were very cordial after meeting.
Baoyu now belongs to the newly established head of the Inner Governor, a specialized espionage, intelligence and information agency, directly under Jing Ran, with great power, and has the right to directly arrest and interrogate anyone who is suspected, whether he is a high-ranking military officer or a senior strategist under Jing Ran.
All the personnel selection among the internal governors are selected according to the standards of the prison personnel who interjudge the prisoners, and their methods are innumerable.
However, this department does not have a specific title like other administrative or military institutions, so for the sake of convenience, the head of the internal governor is generally called the governor.
Since then, the internal governor has begun to be in the world of Dachu.
Maybe Jing Ran himself would not have thought that the department he used to control the army and officers would become a hell for the officials of Dachu in the future.
But the current governor has endured his duty and has not performed out of the ordinary.
Jing Ran was in a good mood riding on the war horse, because of the operation of some columns of the internal governor, the Chu Min Restoration Army in the territory of Shangdang, to which Zhao belonged had already shown signs of returning to Jing Ran.
"Baoyu, you have done a good job, you are very competent as the inner governor."
Jing Ran said jokingly to Baoyu.
Baoyu was also very happy at this time, after all, he had been doing the work of delivering letters since he escaped, and this time Jing Ran handed over the intelligence system to himself, which was a great trust in himself.
"The king has won the award, and all this is arranged by the king properly."
Jing Ran looked at Baoyu and remembered the first time she saw him.
At that time, Baoyu was just a little eunuch without a backstage, bullied by all the eunuchs, and finally sent to his palace, and lived every day cautiously, but now he is actually the overseer in charge of the intelligence system of the Great Chu New Army, and he does things cleanly and neatly, without friction, this time Jingran can't believe that this is his personal eunuch.
"Baoyu, continue to do this, you are the widow's earliest friend, the earliest courtier, don't let others look down on you."
After that, he ignored Baoyu and went directly to Daniel Zhang's Yongzi camp.
Baoyu looked at Jing Ran who was walking away, and her heart was already churning:
"The king regards himself as a friend and a descendant, and I can only repay the king's reinvention for his kindness!"
At this time, in Boyang City, Li Xin also received a letter from Jing Ran, telling Li Xin that he was going to Boyang in person, hoping that Li Xin could do a good job in the defense of Boyang.
Li Xin put away the letterhead, although Jing Ran didn't say anything about his behavior in his heart, he could obviously feel that his killing of prisoners still made Jing Ran a little unhappy.
"The king is still merciful, but there are some things that we don't do as courtiers, so should we let the king do it himself?"
Li Xin cut up and went out of his tent:
"Order, repair the palace, prepare grain and grass, and wait for the king's army to come!"
Also on the battlefield, the most depressed general among the three families of Qin, Zhao and Chu should be Zhao Meng.
Because of his own mistakes, Li Mu, the old general of Zhao State, died in battle, because of his own mistakes, Boyang City was lost, the grain route of the army was broken, and the front-line troops had been divided into two sections with Zhao State, and because of his own mistakes, King Zhao already had the intention to replace him.
Zhao Meng looked at the letterhead from Zhao Du Feigeon and fell into a quarter of uneasiness.
There was no mention of his mistake in his heart, only encouraging him to continue fighting, which at first glance seemed nothing, but at the end of the new one appeared a sentence that made him extremely low:
"Send the Minister of State Zhao Ji as the envoy of the king of Zhao to ...... for the king"
It was this sentence that made Zhao Meng extremely uneasy.
"Sight ......"
Although Zhao Meng is a military general, it does not mean that he is a reckless man, King Zhao's words are very interesting, and he regards the teacher rather than the teacher. The difference between one word and the difference is very different.
The parade only shows that the person who came came to comfort the front-line officers, and after reading it, he left, and there was no actual power of the front-line command.
But in comparison, the inspection is a more obscure term, indicating that in addition to condolences to the officers, the person who came also has the right to make a decision on the spot! And this power is even higher than that of his own front-line general.
Zhao Meng looked at the letter: "The king, the king...... What is this for? ”
On the other hand, the great enemy of the Zhao army, the Qin State, is now preparing to fight this war with the strength of the whole country, and the King of Qin even said at the court meeting: "This battle is not won." The widow lives and dies with the country! ”
So. The Qin State was preparing for war.
Men enthusiastically joined the army, women sewed clothes for the army, and the queen of Qin even took out their jewelry and sold it, and the courtiers all reduced their own salaries. Xirong Shan Yu even said: "Qin, Zhongzhou is a big country! I can't wait! "Qin and Xirong, who were originally in a stalemate because of the princess's time and the capture of the little prince, actually inexplicably showed signs of peace talks, and Xirong even took the initiative to retreat hundreds of miles away from the border of Qin......
Compared with the two countries, the judgment is superior.
Therefore, the current Zhongzhou states are basically in a one-sided situation for the victory or defeat of the war.
And the king of Qi, who has always been low-key, showed signs of falling into the well after learning that King Zhao frequently changed generals and Li Mu died in battle, and directly sent 50,000 Qi troops to approach the eastern border of Qi and Zhao, ready to make a profit.
However, in such a bad situation, King Zhao actually sent Zhao Ji to the front line to restrain Zhao Meng and prepare to divide his troops.
"Zhao Guo, except for Li Mu, they are all dolphin dog ears!"
Jing Ran looked at the news that came not long ago and said.
At this time, Daniel Zhang has also arrived at Jing Ran's side, although he can't analyze the current situation of the big war very well, but now in the big war, Zhao Guo still wants to divide his troops and seize power, is it crazy?
"King, this Zhao Kingdom, can't it be crazy......"
Jing Ran listened to him and handed the letterhead to Li Ren.
At this time, Li Ren had already resigned from his position in the Judge Advocate General's Office and concentrated on his work as a strategist.
Li Ren smiled slightly: "General Zhang is wrong, this Zhao country is not crazy, but enchanted, such a national war, they still don't know whether to live or die, they are now at the end of their rope." ’
Jing Ran nodded:
"We'll be in Boyang at this time tomorrow, and you can repair it there first."
When Daniel Zhang heard this, he immediately became the previous Zhang Daring:
"Haha, that's great, I'm getting lice all over my body......"
The crowd was speechless for a while.
Jing Ran looked at Baoyu again at this time:
"Baoyu, your task is heavier, after arriving in Boyang, immediately set off in person, take the widow's letterhead to the Restoration Army in various places, and recruit them in the shortest possible time, otherwise when the war is over, I will not have the capital to bargain with Qin Zhao."
When everyone heard this, they were stunned.
"Does the king mean that the war is coming to an end?"
Jing Ran nodded:
"According to the current intelligence, there is no doubt that Zhao will definitely be defeated, but what will happen to Zhao after the defeat is a question."
Li Ren nodded and said: "Yes, if Zhao State is defeated in this war, the loss will be very huge, and it can even be said that it will hurt the fundamentals, but the total number of the three armies of Zhao State is nearly 500,000, and now there are 200,000 elite soldiers on the front line, that is to say, Zhao State still has nearly 300,000 soldiers who can fight, which is nothing for Qin, but for us, Zhao State is still a behemoth, so what we need to do now is to gather a group of combatable soldiers in a short period of time, and then we can talk about the price with the injured Zhao State." ”
As soon as Li Ren and Jing Ran said this, the generals realized that although they had defeated some enemies, compared with the real powers, they were still like ants.
"I'll get it." All the generals will bow down.
Originally, this matter was part of Jingran's plan a long time ago, and now it is proposed, and it is not too late to carry it out.
And the most important thing is that these so-called Fuguo Army are just civilian armed forces that rose after Zhao occupied Shangdang, aiming to restore the rule of Chu in Shangdang.
Baoyu is full of confidence: "Your Majesty will definitely complete the task." ”
Jing Ran is also full of confidence in this plan, because no one will be a bandit for the rest of his life, but if he can live a life, he will not embark on the road of being a rogue, and now it is the new army of the King of Chu who has come to recruit, as long as there is no accident, the plan will definitely come true.
Li Ren looked at Jing Ran:
"King, there is one more thing, which is more serious."
Jing Ran: "Sir, please speak." ”
Li Ren paused and continued: "My lord, what I want to say here is about General Li Xin's affairs in Boyang. ”
Jing Ran frowned, yes, Li Xin led the troops for the first time, the battle went smoothly, and he also let the famous Zhao general Li Mu die on the battlefield, such a record Chu State can't find the second one, it is simply a godsend, but now he has not had time to reward Li Xin, he committed the great crime of killing prisoners.
The rest of the generals felt that Li Xin had made great contributions and should be rewarded, but after Li Xin killed the prisoners, the entire new army became infamous as a violent army, and Li Xin was mainly responsible for this alone.
Jing Ran looked at the expressions of the generals, they were all generals, so they were naturally happy for his exploits, but they killed the prisoners......
"Mr. Li, write a letter to the widow."
Li Ren shook his head: "The minister obeys the order." ”
Jing Ran Yoyo says:
"General Li Xin, beheaded Li Mu, the first in battle. However, the crime of killing prisoners is a great crime, and he has to be punished. ”
All the generals pricked up their ears:
"Li Xin, seal Boyang Jun, remove the Xinzi battalion from the post of general, and lead the military as usual before the arrival of the outnumbered army."
Merit is merit, and transgression is excess. The title of Boyang Jun is not a loss to him Li Xin, as for the temporary military is verbal, can Jing Ran find a second person like Li Xin in the army now?
Li Ren had to smile silently after hearing this: This king is very partial to General Li Xin, and if he were someone else, he would probably have to come back to confess.
"Send the letter out at once."
Jing Ran nodded, thinking in his heart: How could a character like Li Xin really be thrown away, he is a candidate for the commander of the three armies.
But this problem of killing prisoners cannot be accustomed.
Once a man has killed sex, he is much more ferocious than a beast. Moreover, the matter of killing prisoners is a matter of dry heaven and harmony, how can the widow bear to look at him for what is good or bad......
