On January 28, 426 of the Great Jin Dynasty, Liu Ji's border army had entered the territory of Mingzhang County in Qianzhou, and to the north of Mingzhang County was Ju'an County, that is, the northernmost county of Qianzhou, and the place where Liu Ji was in the northernmost part of Ju'an County, Chengyin County. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After entering Qianzhou, the further north you go, the more sparsely populated, the whole Qianzhou has been the grassland of the Hu people scourge enough, in Mingzhang County Liu Ji they also encountered a county town that has become ruins, this county called Jiang Zhuo, was broken by a cavalry of the Lou Fu tribe last year, nearly 30,000 people in the city, half of them became corpses, half of them were plundered as slaves by the Lou Fu cavalry, and brought back to the grassland.

Now on the ruins of Jiangzhuo County, you can still see white bones, as if you can vaguely see the tragic situation when Jiangzhuo County was breached.

On the night of the 28th, Liu Ji's army on the border built a temporary camp near the ruins of Jiangzhuo County, where they were to rest for the night and continue to advance northward early tomorrow morning.

In Liu Ji's cloth tent, he looked at the paper in his hand that the Great Jin Dynasty court issued to him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't expect that as Zhou Lanqi expected, he was sued by Zhao Ce to the Great Jin court this time, because of the intervention of the Sun Zhou Mu in Wanzhou, not only did nothing happen, but he became a blessing in disguise and became a partial general officially appointed by the Great Jin court, so that he didn't need to worry about the safety of his father and sister.

This official document was sent by Sun Youhao, the pastor of Anhui Prefecture, who rode a fast horse, and the position of this partial general can be said to be fought for by Sun Zhou Mu for Liu Ji, and the Sun Zhou Mu sent someone to send the official document to Liu Ji, hoping to form a good relationship with Liu Ji.

In the army of the Great Jin Dynasty, as long as it is a general-level position, it must be appointed by the imperial court in person, although the prestige of the Great Jin Imperial Court, because of the internal and external troubles in recent years has plummeted, but the warriors of the Great Jin Dynasty want to become generals, only the appointment documents of the imperial court can be counted.

A few days ago, the Great Jin Dynasty court asked local magistrates to form local troops, and each magistrate could only appoint his officers as captains at most, including the state pastors of various states, and the title of the lowest-ranking general like the partial general must also be appointed by the imperial court himself.

This time, Sun Youhao wanted to take advantage of Liu Ji's matter and directly fight for the position of Geshan County Taishou into his own hands, but the relationship between Geshan and Zhao's family in the court was not weak, and in the end, the position of Geshan County Taishou still fell to Zhao Ce's head.

Then the court of the Great Jin Dynasty may have been in order to balance the relationship between Anhui and Anhui, and did not listen to Zhao Ce's slander of Liu Ji, but instead recognized Sun Youhao's statement, and rewarded Liu Ji for defeating tens of thousands of Liukou outside Cangyuan City, and appointed Liu Ji as a partial general, but Liu Ji's border mission was still not canceled, but his name was much bigger.

In addition, the official document of the imperial court also appointed Liu Ji to command all the armies in Chengyin County, Ju'an County, Qianzhou, including the troops from other counties of the Great Jin Dynasty to the border of Qianzhou, to resist the invasion of Chengyin County by the nomadic tribes of the grassland.

Of course, in addition to the name of a partial general, the Great Jin Dynasty did not give Liu Ji a single soldier, nor did it re-stipulate the number of troops that Liu Ji brought to Chengyin County to garrison, and still required Liu Ji to bring 500 soldiers and horses to Chengyin County.

Liu Ji put the documents in his hand on the wooden couch in the cloth tent, and then pouted his lips and said to Su Lie, Le Yi and other generals: "This time it is thanks to the Sun Zhou Mu of Wanzhou, now I am also a general of the Great Jin Dynasty, but unfortunately it is just a name, not to mention a soldier in the Great Jin Dynasty, not even a copper plate for me!" ”

Su Lie said with a smile: "Lord, no matter what, the promotion should still be worth celebrating, so that we don't need to worry about being troubled by the imperial court!" ”

Le Yi also said: "After the lord is promoted to a partial general, we can finally play the banner of the word 'Liu'!" ”

According to the regulations of the Great Jin Dynasty, only generals at the level of generals in the army can have their own banners, Liu Ji was originally only a captain, and it is impossible to play his own banner, but now he is promoted to a partial general, and he can play a big banner with the word "Liu".

Liu Ji sighed at this time and said: "The court of the Great Jin Dynasty is just like that, even if I am given the title of hussar general, there will be no change to our border team, everything has to rely on ourselves." ”

After Liu Ji entered Qianzhou with the border army, he found that the situation in Qianzhou was indeed very bad, and before entering Qianzhou, the number of soldiers under Liu Ji's command had exceeded 6,300 people.

After entering Qianzhou, Liu Ji still recruited troops all the way, but the people in various counties and counties along the way, when they heard that Liu Ji's army was going to Chengyin County on the border of Qianzhou, there were very few young and strong men who were willing to join Liu Ji's border army.

After walking in Qianzhou for more than 10 days, the number of soldiers recruited barely reached 100, and the number of soldiers under Liu Ji's command has only reached 6,400, which has not increased significantly.

The reason why it is difficult for Liu Ji's border army to recruit soldiers is that many counties and counties on the border of Qianzhou have already existed in name only, and under the sweep of the cavalry of various tribes of the nomadic tribes in the grassland, towns and cities have become ruins, and the situation may be even worse in Chengyin County, where Liu Ji's border army is going, located in the northernmost part of Qianzhou.

Liu Ji is now worried, when he leads the border army to Chengyin County, maybe there is not even a place to stay, the county seat of Chengyin County, it is likely to be the same as the county seat of Jiangzhuo County in front of him, has become a ruin, the current situation in Chengyin County, Liu Ji is still not clear, and after entering Qianzhou, he did not find out the specific situation of Chengyin County.

Fortunately, Liu Ji had 6,400 soldiers in his hands, and all of them were armored, of which 1,300 cavalry and 700 foot soldiers were wearing iron armor, and the remaining 4,400 foot soldiers were also wearing armor.

Coupled with more than 20 generals under Liu Ji's command, even if Liu Ji arrived in Chengyin County, he was not powerless to fight back in the face of the cavalry of all ethnic groups on the grassland.

And in order to deal with the cavalry of all ethnic groups in the grassland, Liu Ji, Su Lie and Le Yi also developed a secret weapon for the cavalry.

The number of generals under Liu Ji's command has not increased, except for Chen Hao, Cheng Yi, Zhang Shuo, Yang Hongtao and Wu Liang recruited in reality, the generals summoned by the system are still twenty.

When he left Cangyuan City, Liu Ji's soul value was still 614 points, and he often encountered dead people on the way in Wanzhou, basically starving to death, but unfortunately most of them had died for more than two hours, but there were still some who had just died, which increased Liu Ji's soul value a little, especially passing by a village that had just been ransacked by the rogue, which made Liu Ji's soul value increase by more than 100 points at once.

When Liu Ji entered Qianzhou, the soul value had exceeded 800 points, so Liu Ji asked the system to summon second-rate generals twice in a row, but all of them failed sadly, and the luck bonus did not work.

Now Liu Ji's soul value is only 57 points left, which is not enough to even summon a third-rate general.

For the failure to summon second-rate generals for 2 times in a row, although Liu Ji was a little distressed about the soul value consumed, but he didn't care too much, after all, according to his 29 points of force value, the success rate of summoning second-rate generals is only 1 in 32, even if he fails 2 times in a row, it is a normal situation, the moon is full, the water is full, and good luck cannot always fall on his head.
