Xie Xuan only met Tao Qian by chance when he was in Jiangzhou, and he could be said to know nothing about Wei Jie's origin before he told Tao Qian's origin, Wei Xuan should have never been to Jiangzhou, but he knew Tao Qian's identity and origin so clearly, he couldn't help but surprise Xie An and Xie Xuan to the point of being incomprehensible!

Wei Jie picked up the teacup and took a sip, then Shi Shiran said: "Gong An, Xuan Shuai, don't hide it, although Wei Jie has been living in Jiankang City when he was young, he has never hiked around, but he has some understanding of the hermit masters in the world, and Tao Qian is one of them!" ”

"Wei Jie, who once read Tao Qian's set of five-character poems, was overwhelmed by his talent, so he specially asked someone to inquire about his origin!"

"It seems that the two of you are sympathetic to each other!" Xie Xuan said with a smile. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wei Jie's explanation is reasonable, Xie Xuan is willing to listen to it, Xie An can't find any fault, and other than that, the two can't think of other reasons.

"After talking about Tao Qian, let's get down to business!" Xie An said.

"Xiao Jie, now that you are the general of the imperial court and the deputy commander of the Beifu soldiers, you will do your best to assist Xiao Xuan in the future, and lead the training of the Beifu soldiers, I have been crossing to the south for some time, and it is time to plot the Northern Expedition and recover the mountains and rivers!"

"Wei Jie's learned from Young Master Kun that the former Qin army seems to be intent on moving, why would Duke An want to move north at this time?" Wei Jie, puzzled.

This time, Wei Rank really doesn't understand, no matter what Xie An's ultimate purpose is, the best plan at the moment is to work hard, not to use troops in vain!

"First strike, last strike!" Xie An's tone seemed very calm, obviously well thought out!

"Yesterday, Xie Yan sent someone to report that north of Yuzhou, Yao Changbu is about to move, presumably because Na Fu Jian has already made a big move south after a year of grain and grass preparation, and the Qiang tribe intends to test the reaction of our dynasty!"

Wei Jie's head nodded slightly, Xie An's worries were not unreasonable, the new chaos in the Southern Jin Dynasty was peaceful, in addition to the Jingzhou army was not involved in the dispute, the main military forces of the Great Jin Dynasty, such as the Beifu Army, the Yongzhou Army, and the Yuzhou Army, had major battles, whether it was soldiers or grain and grass, they were all consumed, and if the former Qin army came to attack, it was inevitable that the Jingzhou Army would take on the main defensive duties, but the two uncles and nephews of Huan Chong and Huan Xuan might not be so considerate of the imperial court.

Thinking about it this way, Xie An's Northern Expedition should just be a suspicious tactic, posing as a Northern Expedition to show that the Southern Jin Dynasty still has the power to fight again, one is to deter the former Qin and dare not act rashly, and the other is to distract the former Qin's attention!

If the Northern Expedition is just shouting slogans, and finally announcing the withdrawal of the army without an inch of success, it is undoubtedly a move of three hundred taels of silver here, and then the former Qin army will definitely go south with the whole country, and there will be no scruples!

In the Battle of Weishui, although Xie Xuan had 80,000 Beifu soldiers and defeated Fu Jian's million-strong army, it was based on the favorable time and place, as well as Fu Jian's light enemy, and the internal instability of the former Qin.

"What Uncle means, our Beifu soldiers took advantage of the fact that the Qiang army had not yet made any moves, and took the initiative to attack and put on the posture of the Northern Expedition, so as to buy some more time for my Great Jin!" Xie Xuan glanced at Xie An, tapped his fingers on the table, and said in a deep voice.

Wei Jie's head nodded slightly, and said: "Wei Jie's understanding is that Wei Jie's is just worried that this move is too risky, if it is discovered by Fu Jian Murong Chui and others, I am afraid that the former Qin army will go south on the same day, and then our gains will outweigh our losses!" ”

"The old man is also worried about this, so I want the three of us to think about and discuss it before you and Xiao Xuan return to Jingkou to see how we can make this plan seamless!" Xie An nodded.

"At present, Uncle and I only have one initial plan, that is, after you and I return to Jingkou with Xiaojie, we will take most of the people in our headquarters to Yuzhou to meet Xie Yan with great fanfare, and then look for an opportunity to hit Yao Chang's Qiang army first and file their sharpness!"

Xie Xuan smiled slightly, and then said, "Uncle wants to see if Xiao Jie has any specific ideas for this plan!" ”

From this point of view, whether it is him, Xie An, or Xie Xuan, unless there is a plan to take refuge in Fu Jian, they are all on the same front, and Wei Jie naturally spares no effort to think about it.

"Wei Jie, if we can come up with a real plan, we may be able to avoid the risk of being discovered by Fu Jian and others!" Wei Jie's deliberation said.

"On the one hand, we do not hide the fatigue of our troops in the Great Jin Dynasty, on the other hand, we are seriously preparing for the Northern Expedition, not just making a gesture, but fighting a few hard battles with Yao Chang in a real way!"

"It's just that these battles must be won, and it is best to recapture a few cities from Yao Chang's hands, so in this battle, we must exhaust the main elite of my Beifu soldiers, so that it can not only play a deterrent role, but also let Fu Jian know that we still have the strength to fight!"

Wei Jie's plan does not seem to be virtual and real, but all the moves are real moves, but Xie An and Xie Xuan are not idle people, so they naturally understand the emptiness in Wei Jie's words.

In the current situation, all the forces of the Southern Jin Dynasty, perhaps in addition to being arrogant as Huan Xuan and not afraid of the former Qin army, others including Xie Xuan, Wei Jie did not want to fight with the former Qin in the depths of his heart, but simple fear could not avoid this inevitable decisive battle, for the sake of today, the only way to delay the arrival of the decisive battle as much as possible!

Former Qin Fujian is not an iron bucket, whether it is Murong Chui or Yao Chang, all of them are heroes and are now subservient to Fu Jian, it is really forced by the situation, if Fu Jian's own strength is damaged in the decisive battle with the Southern Jin Dynasty, it is bound to be difficult to maintain the relationship between the monarch and the ministers with these ambitious subordinates, especially Murong Trai!

When Wang Meng was alive, he once persuaded Fu Jian to get rid of Murong Trai, although he was not adopted by Fu Jian, his scruples about Murong Trai in his heart never disappeared!

This strategy of the guard rank is aimed at Fu Jian's scruples about his subordinates!

"Xiao Jie, your plan is to put it to death and live later!"

Xie Xuan sighed and said, he is also a person who is good at using strange soldiers, and he does not exclude the danger of soldiers, but this plan of the guard rank is even more risky than the one he and Xie An formulated before, which is equivalent to exposing all his weaknesses in front of the enemy!

"The old man thinks that Xiaojie's plan is feasible!" Xie said with a chuckle.

"Don't forget, in Fu Jian's camp, there are also chess pieces buried by the old man!"
