After Zhao Ying led the Zhao soldiers to arrive at the city of Puyang, the guards were too timid to fight with them in the suburbs, so they retreated into the tall wall, and the Zhibo army immediately crossed the river to participate in the siege, but only surrounded but not fought, and then constantly sent pedestrians into the city to persuade Wei Hou Yuan to return to the Jin League.

Wei Hou initially spoke very hard, vowed to stay in the Qi League, and made up his mind to be the enemy of the Jin State, Puyang Suzhi for a year, with nearly 10,000 soldiers, fully able to defend the siege of tens of thousands of Jin troops, enough to wait for the arrival of Qi reinforcements, or the Jin army to save Lu and advance eastward.

However, the princes under him did not have this jade burning mind, and many of them had territories west of the river, and the interests of the Jin State were complicated, so they continued to advise the Marquis of Wei to be soft. Two days later, the news that the Qi State Liqiu reinforcements were defeated and retreated by a Jin State "partial division" in Zhenyi, Wei Hou was shocked, and now the east and west sides are under attack, and the originally expected reinforcements have no shadow, and he can't hold on.

"A big country does not practice morality, but strives for it, Wei is a small country, and it is helpless to go to Qi and Jin, or not, it is a big deal to apologize to the Marquis of Qi after the Jin State retreats."

So the Marquis of Wei sent people out of the city to ask for peace.

Half of the strategic task of the Jin army's invasion and defense was completed, and the only thing left was to respond to Lu's request for help to repel the Qi army, so that they could regain the upper hand in this battle for hegemony.

So Zhibo stayed in Puyang to monitor the fulfillment of the new covenant by Weiguo, while Zhongxingyin traveled northeast along the south bank of the Great River to rescue Yiyi, a frontier fortress of the Jin State besieged by the Qi people. Zhao Ying's whole army marched eastward, and the target was Zhendi, a thousand-room city captured by the "righteous army", and then confronted the Qi army besieging the western disdain of the Lu State.

Mixed with the soldiers of the Zhao clan, as well as more than 10,000 people belonging to the private family of the Jin State along the Pushui River to the east, this water is sparkling, looking like a silver-white ribbon from afar, the willow trees on the bank hang low, and there are large fields not far from the shore.

Along the way, Weiguo Xiaoyi had learned the new news of Jin Wei's peace, but he was still vigilant behind closed doors, and only provided some manpower and food according to the instructions of the Weihou envoy. The anti-Jin army is like a thief, after all, this ** discipline is notoriously poor.

Zhao Ying was wearing a military uniform, his armor was not removed, and he stood on the chariot with a sword. The Chinese army Sima Post has no righteousness.

After approaching the boundary of Zhenyi, the fields on both sides of the road are green and yellow, which are more than two feet high, and the growth is gratifying, and there are farmers working in the fields from time to time. Compared with the west bank of the Great River and the area around Puyang, which was ravaged by the Jin army, it seems that it is unheard of war, like a place outside the world.

This surprised Zhao Ying, Post Wuzheng and others. The accompanying wolf doctor Dou Li said: "I thought that the Zhao gentleman's attack on this town must have gone through a bloody battle, but I didn't expect it to be this peaceful scene!" ”

As he was talking, Hou Xiang Zhang Bofu, who was in charge of scouting and exploring the way, sent someone to report back, saying that there were people waiting in the Lushe ten miles ahead with the Zhao family's Xuanniao flag.

Zhao Ying stroked his beard in the car and said: "It must be my son, the whole army is speeding forward!" ”

When I gradually saw the low Tu Dao Lushe in front of me, there were indeed hundreds of neat soldiers lined up to greet each other, and someone came by car from a distance. The owner on it was still standing on tiptoe to wipe the car. After seeing Zhao Ying, the young gentleman wearing a black Xuanyuan pattern costume on a white background and wearing a Xuan crown had a happy face, so he jumped off the car, took two steps and made three steps, and bowed down in front of Zhao Yingrong's car.

His voice was a little choked: "The unfilial son has no mercy to meet his father!" ”

Zhao Ying looked at the young man on the ground who ignored the muddy road and bowed down without hesitation, and had mixed feelings in his heart.

The time is close to the end of June, and it has been more than half a year since Zhao Wuxian left Xinjiang as a small pedestrian, and there have been huge changes during this period. Zhao Ying was expelled in the face of the unanimous joint expulsion of the Five Qings. He was powerless to fight against it, so he could only break his teeth and swallow blood. Now that Fan Ying is seriously ill, he knows how to forbear, and assigns a lot of political affairs to Zhao Ying, the Chinese army. He also gradually began to reverse his disadvantages and gain a lot of power.

At the same time, Zhao Ying began to actively plan for his concubine who was outside, trying to let him return through public discussion again, but Wuqing, especially Fan Jijiao, who had died of his son, had already developed jealousy and hatred towards Zhao Wuxian, and disagreed with Zhao Ying on this matter. Several public discussions ended in quarrels.

However, what reassured him was that Zhao Wuxian did not sit still, he gradually gained a foothold in the Song State, and captured Zhenyi in the general trend of the Jin State's attack and defense, which indirectly helped the Jin army. It can be seen that this son is not discouraged because of being expelled, but is working hard, which makes Zhao Ying feel that this son is not good compared to when he was in China, but even Zhao Ying is a little incomprehensible and can't understand how his future road will go.

Zhao Ying secretly thought in his heart: "The cloud of "Thai Hexagram", there is no peace, no return, no blame, no blame, don't be sympathetic, you are blessed with food, and you are honest." ”

The name of Wu Xian implies that everything has repeated twists and turns, this is not the name taken by Zhao Ying, but it is like a prophecy, this son has had great ups and downs in the past two years, and it is quite in line with this meaning.

"Get up, pedal with me." Zhao Ying's mood is complicated, there are excitement and regrets, but the exit is extremely light.

"Yui!"

The wheel of the car rolled slowly, Zhao Wuxian waited on the right side of the car after getting into the car, Zhao Ying squinted his eyes, only to see that the shirtless white deep clothes had been dirty, he looked precocious, so his face has not changed much compared to more than half a year ago, but he has been tanned a little, and he has a little more perseverance and maturity.

"In a blink of an eye, you will soon be sixteen years old, and your heroic spirit will be even better than before."

The father and son didn't say a word along the way, and what happened in the past six months in the Song State and Cao State Zhao Ying was already relatively clear through the Jian, and he was interested in the process of the battle of Zhen.

"The battle to seize the city is tricky, but the Qiqiu Qi army has good combat strength, you can defeat three times the enemy with five hundred people, and even capture nearly six hundred people, it is really not easy, what method did you use? In two months, half of the recruits were built into a strong army. ”

Zhao Wuxian replied humbly: "Let my father know that two Qi soldiers can easily deal with three newly recruited soldiers, because their generation is rich in the country, not badly equipped, and good at technical combat, and has several conscription experiences." However, a hundred soldiers will not be afraid of a hundred soldiers. Two hundred can defeat the same number. Five hundred soldiers could easily defeat one thousand and five hundred soldiers. This is how great the role of battle situation, discipline and formation is. ”

"Tactics, discipline and formation...... Yes, my son is already a man who knows soldiers. ”

Zhao Ying smiled with satisfaction after listening to the battle, and the post Wuzheng in front of him was also constantly bowing his head.

"Being able to make flexible use of the characteristics of the Qi people and the coping strategies that the subordinates said, the gentleman can be said to be a good use of soldiers."

Zhao Wuxian's mouth was modest, but his eyes glanced at the Zhao Light Knights who were cruising left and right along the road, a new army formed after the Chengxiang Light Cavalry, which was almost completely copied from equipment to sergeants. The number of them is no more than 100 people, and the riders also choose the Yuan people, the shepherds and the Rong Di in the Jinyang area, which is finally a good progress, what kind of changes will the Zhao clan bring to this era by promoting Hufu riding and archery two hundred years in advance? It's really exciting.

He is not in the country though. However, the foundation laid in Chengxiang before is still playing a role, and the Chengxiang model has now gradually spread in Xiagong and Jinyang. According to Zhang Mengtan, pavilions are all over the road, and the Daida method is widely used in spring planting. Zhao porcelain also burned kiln after kiln, earning a steady stream of wealth for the Zhao family, and after having the confidence, he could promote the reform of the new mu system that Zhao Ying had planned for a long time.

On the other hand, for the new tricks that Zhao Wuxian played in the battle of Zhen, Zhao Ying was amazed but also clear. The premise of achieving a large number of professional recruits is that the financial resources are sufficient, and the Zhao family cannot afford large-scale military pawns now.

He looked at this vast and fertile Pubei Plain and said: "For my father, I will tell the truth, this attack on you to capture Zhenyi and repel the reinforcements of Qi State can be regarded as a meritorious achievement, but it is far from enough. Only the monarch will support your return, and the other five secretaries will try their best to prevent it, this merit is not enough to convince them, what are you going to do in the future? ”

Zhao Wuxian was silent for a while, but fortunately, he had expected this situation when he discussed it with Zhang Meng.

Father-son conversations. There are also more pedestrians on the road. There are young and strong guards who cross the sword and walk together, there are old people with grandchildren, and women carrying water urns, these are the natives of Zhendi. There were also many dusty and vegetable people, helping the old and the young, who should have fled from the west, seeing the passage of the Jin army, the farmers in the fields got up to watch, and the pedestrians and homeless people on the road avoided as if they had seen ghosts.

Some military officials came to ask for instructions on whether they should raid on the spot according to the previous rules and tie these guards to ropes. Bring it back to the Jin Kingdom to enrich the Zhao land and Jinyang.

However, he was stopped by Zhao Wuxian.

"No! Zhen Di has now been attached, and Huairou can completely subdue it, and the food and manpower needed by the army along the way. The kid has already asked the local clans and the small towns to provide it, and if it is wantonly looted, it will arouse discontent. ”

After capturing Zhenyi, Zhao Wuxian did not personally send troops to each small town, but only persuaded him to surrender with the help of Zhen's hand and provided some grain. After the Battle of Zhen. He took advantage of the power of victory, and decisively sent one or two people to enter, completely controlling the surrounding area of Zhenyi.

But after the stick, it was carrots that were used, and Zhao Wuxian did not expropriate them, but bought them at a fair price with money from the treasury, and promised to buy grain from Taoyi afterwards to replenish it, and would never let this winter be without clothes and brown.

After hearing this, Zhao Ying looked at his son curiously: "Do you want to stay here for a long time?" ”

Zhao Wuxian bowed slightly: "Exactly, since he can't return to Jin immediately, the kid wants to use Zhen Di as a temporary foothold!" ”

Zhao Ying suddenly realized that the capture of Zhenyi was not simply to cooperate with the Jin army to attack and defend and obtain the credit of returning to the country, but it was not so simple to occupy a city with a lord.

He frowned: "Do you know that Wei Guo has now been peaceful, and it stands to reason that this town should also be returned to Wei Hou." Even if your father forcibly gave you this town, and you want to be independent of Pushui, how can you survive in a city of thousands of rooms? Even if your soldiers can fight against ten with one, they will not be able to protect themselves if they are sandwiched between Qi, Wei, Lu, and Cao. Zhao felt that this was not a good idea.

Wuxian smiled: "How dare the kid be independent of the princes, I just want to ask my father to call the shots, so that Wuxian can enter Lu with Zhenyi and be the doctor of the Lu country!" (To be continued.) )
