On the same day, Zhao Jun gradually calmed down under the persuasion of Wuxing and Cao Wuxian, and then Zhao Jun separated the two of them, stayed in the room for a long time, and after sorting out his thoughts, he calmed down his inner emotions, and Zhao Ling's affairs could only be hidden in his heart first.

Anyway, the most important thing for me now is to enter the Qin Dynasty as an official and have a certain number of connections, as long as this is the case, I can return to my hometown and find Lu Pheasant, and only when I have power in the imperial court can I hope to find Zhao Ling.

Moreover, it is also extremely beneficial for building up power in the future.

When it got dark, Zhao Jun arranged a place to stay for Cao Wushu and others, and after dinner, the two gathered in Zhao Jun's room and talked alone.

"Boss, I" After Cao Wuxian entered the room, he looked at Zhao Jun and lowered his head with a guilty face.

Zhao Jun smiled faintly on his face, patted Cao Wuxian's shoulder and said, "Come, sit down and talk, we are good brothers, and we can't blame you for that incident." ”

"I am, boss." Cao Wuxian's eyes suddenly moistened a little, but he still did it.

After Zhao Jun and Cao Wushu faced each other, he spoke: "By the way, didn't I hear that General Meng Tian has been building Henan and is not preparing to fight the Xiongnu?" ”

Cao Wuxian heard Zhao Jun's question, so he put away his emotions and said solemnly: "Yes, Henan was a mess by the Xiongnu before, and the Great Wall of Yan Zhao and Qin also collapsed, and the emperor issued an edict to build Henan land on a large scale, and to connect the Great Wall parallel to the two ends. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Jun opened his mouth and asked, "Since this is the case, then how can you and your scouts appear in Mobei?" Is it to deal with the horse bandits in Mobei? ”

"Dealing with horse bandits? General Meng Tian will not do this thankless thing, and the horse bandits cannot threaten the frontier, and they are even more slippery like loaches on the prairie, which is more difficult to deal with than the Huns.

This time, the general sent me, mainly because of the news from above, that the Zhou family horse gang you destroyed before had colluded with the Huns.

Although the current Xiongnu were driven out of Henan by us, their strength was greatly damaged, and they did not dare to go south because of the prestige of our army, but their ambitions did not die, and they have been making small moves, harassing our frontier, which is very annoying, and seriously hindering the progress of frontier construction.

Therefore, the general sent me to investigate this matter clearly, and at the same time divide the alliance between the horse gang and the Huns, and I will send scouts to monitor Zhou Kuang, but I didn't expect to meet the boss.

Yingbu also came this time, and the 5,000 soldiers and horses he brought were not far away, in order to exterminate Zhou Kuang as a last resort, and at the same time deter the Mobei horse bandits, so that they would not dare to mess around. ”

Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this, and combined with his understanding of the situation in Mobei, he gradually understood that the Xiongnu were greatly injured because of the previous battle with Meng Tian, and Meng Tian wanted to build Henan, so they all had scruples, and no one was willing to fight.

However, the Xiongnu were not stupid, and it was impossible for them to see the Qin army successfully build a barrier to defend themselves, so they wanted to use the situation war to make it impossible for Meng Tian to successfully build Henan, and also to buy time for the recovery of their own strength.

As a result, the horse bandit forces in Mobei have become fragrant and sweet, and both sides are vying to win over, which is why the Huns helped Zhou Kuang deal with Wu Xing before, in order to unify Mobei and deal with Meng Tian.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of an excellent note, which would not only ensure that he would join the Qin army and obtain a high position of power, but also be beneficial to the Wu Gang.

At this time, Zhao Jun held back his inner thoughts and asked, "What is the situation inside the border army?" I remember Shang Kun once told us that there seems to be no harmony inside? ”

Cao Wuxian nodded and said: "That's true, although there is a vacancy in the frontier army, it is also around 280,000, and in the past two years, the emperor has transferred a lot of laborers from the interior, and also relocated some people to live, and has invested countless money.

General Meng Tian is also preparing to build a city, and it is possible to form a single county in the future. Boss, think about it, what a big piece of interest this is, and the Northern Army is not the world of General Meng Tian alone, so there is naturally a fight. ”

Zhao Jun's expression moved, Cao Wuxian's analysis was good, he knew that Jiuyuan County would be established in Henan in a few years.

"Hehe, your kid has seen a lot in the past six months." Zhao Jun smiled with satisfaction, Cao Wuxian was a good talent in history, and now he is better than in history, and he will be his right-hand man in the future, Zhao Jun is naturally happy for his growth.

"That's, though, a little bit worse than the boss." Cao Wuxian licked his face and smiled.

"Alright, don't sell it, tell me what's going on inside." Zhao Jun urged, this kid, give some color, and he will open a dyeing workshop.

Cao Wuxian smiled after hearing this, and then spoke: "To put it simply, the army is divided into three factions, one is the commander, the general Meng Tian, and the second faction is the deputy commander, the general Ruan Weng Zhong, who often has contradictions.

There is also a neutral faction, that is, General Pi Wang Li, he only unified 10,000 people, but Wang Li came out of the general Wang Qian's family, and his father Wang Ben is also a general, and he is the emperor's big celebrity, with such a background, and there is not much to do, so he also has a foothold in the army. ”

"Ruan Weng Zhong, Wang Li, Meng Tian?"

Zhao Jun's heart was a little shocked when he heard this, these three people are not simple people, two generals, one general.

The ranks in the Qin army are divided into national captains, generals, generals, generals, partial generals, captains, Langzhong, and military marquis.

Captains and generals are only produced in special periods, and there are only a few people in the Qin Dynasty so far, even Meng Tian is only a general now, and General Pi's position in the army is naturally not low.

Wang Li is the grandson of Wang Qian, a generation of famous generals, at the end of Qin, he and Zhang Han jointly supported a piece of the sky of Great Qin, and now he is a general, which shows that Qin Shihuang reused it.

Ruan Weng Chung, the official history is not recorded, but this person exists, the legend is tall and mighty, the personal force of the Qin army is the first, the battle is brave and powerful to shock the frontier, Qin Shi Huang also appreciates and trusts his people.

Meng Tian is even more powerful, almost everyone in the world knows, known as "China's first warrior" by later generations, and even known as the god of war, of course, these are not because of his personal bravery, but his fighting style, can fight tough battles, can also win battles.

Meng Tian was the earliest developer in northwest China, and also the first person to develop Ningxia in ancient times, built the Great Wall, improved the brush, and made Henan, and even the Hetao area to the south, from a deserted land, to a fertile field comparable to the mainland.

In the end, Zhao Jun thought for a while and asked: "It seems that Meng Tian's ancestors were all famous generals of the Qin State, and now he is the official commander of the border army, and he Ruan Weng Zhong is only the deputy commander, how can he compete with General Meng Tian?" ”

After hearing this, Cao Wuxian suddenly sighed and said: "This has to start with the border army, in fact, in the northern army, more than half of the soldiers and horses were all in Lintao back then, and followed the soft Weng Zhong to defend the Northwest Yue Clan, Xirong and Qiang for many years.

Although his family is not as good as Meng Tian, his prestige in the border army is extremely high, and the relationship between the army is even deeper, most of them are his cronies, and when the emperor appointed the commander of the northern army, many people thought that it would be Ruan Weng Trong.

Unexpectedly, the emperor sent General Meng Tian, so the resentment between the two also arose, and Ruan Weng Zhong cherished his reputation and excluded dissidents in the army, so he had a deep grudge with General Meng Tian.

It's just that Ruan Weng Zhong is still a person who understands the overall situation, and he is not ambiguous in major matters, and the emperor may also be out of balance considerations, turning a blind eye to Ruan Weng Zhong, plus General Meng Tian is open-minded, so the army has always been peaceful, otherwise it would have been chaotic. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Jun couldn't help but nod and said: "Your analysis is very correct, it seems that you are indeed a long skill, by the way, which faction are you?" ”

"That's, hehe, I can read a lot of books now." Cao Wuxian first boasted to himself, and then said: "I can be regarded as General Meng Tian's faction, he attaches great importance to me and Yingbu, and has taught me a lot of skills. ”

"Well, I guessed it."

Zhao Jun nodded, but he was thinking in his heart, I am afraid that Wang Li's role in the army is not as simple as a simple neutral, Qin Shi Huang is not an incompetent person, and he will not let the border army lose its combat effectiveness because of balance.

"No injuries, I'd like to ask you for a favor." After a long time, Zhao Jun spoke.

Cao Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and finally patted his chest and said: "Boss, what are you polite with me, even if you have something to order, even if we go to the border army to stand on our own, I will do it with you." ”

Zhao Jun smiled and nodded: "It's not that serious, you have also seen it, I have a certain amount of power in Mobei, but now it is the Qin Emperor's world, I can't hide here and be a bandit all the time, but the situation in the world is unknown, and I can't easily give up the power in my hands."

You help me introduce General Meng Tian, I want to talk to him, let him take over us, but I can't interfere with my rule over the Ma Gang, I can help him settle the forces in Mobei and contain the ambitions of the Huns. ”

"This" After Cao Wuxian heard this, he suddenly hesitated, and then said: "Boss, it's not that I don't help, but this thing won't work at all."

Although General Meng Tian had co-opted many horse bandits, it was absolutely impossible and did not intervene. ”

"If others can't, it doesn't mean I can't, how can I know if I don't talk about it." Zhao Jun smiled faintly and said, "You just have to bring the words to General Meng Tian, but don't mention the matter of my absolute control, as long as he agrees to take over first, and then you say, I will talk to him personally." ”

Zhao Jun actually had a rough plan for how to persuade Meng Tian, but he had to arouse Meng Tian's interest first, and then negotiate in person.

Cao Wuxian thought for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, wait for my news, but, boss, are you really sure?" ”

If Zhao Jun simply wants to join the Qin Army, it is better to say, the key is that he wants to enter the Qin Army to get a high position, but he also does not want to leave the power of the Ma Gang, which is almost impossible in Cao Wuxian's opinion.

Zhao Jun didn't answer him directly, but smiled lightly: "At the beginning of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum, many people also thought that it was impossible for us to escape, but aren't you now a Qin officer?" ”

"Well, okay."

Cao Wuxian was stunned for a moment, maybe the boss is really likely to succeed, think about it: killing the county order, escaping from the mausoleum to controlling the Mobei Ma Gang, there are so many things along the way, which others dare not think of, but Zhao Jun not only thought about it, but also did it and succeeded.

If it is really as Zhao Jun said, if he can successfully negotiate with Meng Tian, then Zhao Jun will definitely be able to rise in a short period of time and soar to the sky!

In the end, Zhao Jun suddenly asked again: "By the way, since you can get the news about Zhou Kuang's collusion with the Xiongnu in such a timely manner, then the Qin army must have spies in the Xiongnu, and it is very likely to be a strict intelligence organization, how much do you know about this?" ”

Cao Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I heard that the imperial court does have this organization, but although Meng Tian trusts and cultivates me, how can I know about such a secret thing." ”

"Oh, I see."

Zhao Jun nodded, originally he still wanted to ask about Mu Ning, it seemed that he could only wait for the opportunity, he now thought to himself, if he had the opportunity to contact this organization, he could use it to investigate Zhao Ling's whereabouts.
