After reading the interrogation records of Qingcao Ya'er, Xie Shence carefully observed her for a while outside the secret room where Qingcao Ya'er was held, and only left after seeing that there was basically nothing unusual.

No one can pretend to be so realistic, at least Xie Shence has never seen it.

In mid-March, Xie Shence came to Yuncheng, the front line of the war between Qin and Jin.

In Yuncheng, Xie Shence saw Xie Yi, who was injured.

Xie Yi was hit by a stray arrow in the chaotic army when he lured the enemy deeper, but fortunately, the injury was not serious, and when Xie Shence knew, he was basically fine.

After Xie Shence figured out the battle situation, he realized that the Western Front was far from being as easy as Xie Yi said in the military intelligence report.

Bai Liangyu's Hexi Qin army was the most capable army of Qin, and was known as the "spear and crossbow" of Great Qin together with the northwest cavalry of Qin. The spear was a large phalanx of infantry, and the crossbow was a cavalry shot.

For this war, the Qin State successively invested about 100,000 troops, including 8,000 iron cavalry transferred from the northwest of the Qin State, and 30,000 main troops in Hexi.

Bai Liangyu's talent in fighting with soldiers is not inferior to Bai Yan, coupled with the extremely high combat power of the cavalry in his hands and the Hexi Army of Qin State, the Jin army has a hard time coping. Even if a famous general is like Xie Yi, it is difficult to take advantage of him much.

This was still after the Northwest Army joined the war, after Xie Yi designed to annihilate the main force of nearly 10,000 Qin troops.

The ferocity of the Qin army, the tension of grain and grass, the criticism of the DPRK and China, and the instability of the people on the Western Front all made Xie Yi under tremendous pressure all the time.

And after Xie Shence understood the battle situation and logistics, he only had admiration for Xie Yi.

In the most difficult time, there were only more than 20,000 people available on the Western Front, and these 20,000 people held out for half a month until the Northwest Army reinforcements arrived.

In the most difficult time, the grain and grass were only enough to eat for two days, and in the end, Xie Yi personally led the troops, pulled out the teeth from the trap designed by the Qin people, and took half a month's of food.

At the most difficult time, King Qi and Xiahou Yu could barely suppress the backlash of the Guanlong clan, and in the end, it was Xie Yi who directly suppressed the two surnames who were preparing to rebel. Of course, this matter was not written in the expedited delivery to Jindu.

......

In addition, there are contradictions between generals, soldiers' emotional appeasement, people's wishes and guidance, etc., all of which have the shadow of Xie Yi. It can be said that the Western Front can hold out for so long because Xie Yi has built a Great Wall with his own strength.

At this time, the uncle and nephew were in front of the huge sand table, discussing something.

Xie Shence looked at Xie Yi, who was tired but looked like a torch, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Xie Yi didn't care about Xie Shence, and talked eloquently.

“...... Bai Liangyu wanted to hold on to Yongji and Donghua Mountain, and then open up the road to the south, which was a clever plan, but Henan Road was heavily defended, and the Qin people's grain and grass were unsustainable, so it was not passable. Ben Shuai set the main battlefield between Yuncheng and Yongji, delayed him for half a year, and now it is already a situation where both sides want to retreat......"

Xie Shence smiled slightly bitterly and said, "Why is the uncle so bothered, according to the nephew's intentions, what if he is let in?" Aren't these clans in Shanxi Province the most capable of jumping? Let them taste the power of the Qin people, and the uncle can worry less. ”

Xie Yi blew his beard and glared and shouted, "Nonsense! ”

"My Jin people's territory, how can I tolerate the Qin people to go wild? Besides, where is the use of borrowing other people's hands to suppress those things that are not successful...... The two surnames who wanted to rebel before were just turned over, and Ben Shuai suppressed them. In today's Shanxi Road, who dares to be disobedient? Chen Hua is a soft egg, his family can't say he can't move, but he wants Ben Shuai to help him clean up the portal. Not only did he not appreciate it afterwards, but he was also impeached endlessly, and he was really a person with no measure......"

"My nephew knows about Chen Hua." Xie Shence thought for a while and said: "The surnames Zhu and Zhou should indeed be killed, that is, after Your Majesty learned what happened from Ti Cai, he also said that it was a good killing." But uncle...... It may be that the people below will be wrong and kill a distant nephew of Chen Hua's concubine...... Chen Hua's concubine is a partial house of the Zhou family, and her nephew is the one she can rely on the most in the Zhou family, so ......"

The Zhu and Zhou families were also a big force in Guanlong, but under the sweep of Xie Yi's thunderous momentum, they could only end helplessly, the core children of the family were slaughtered, and the partial branch and partial houses were sent to the northwest to build a city. Xie Yi killed a lot of people during that time, including the nephew of the Zhou concubine, who is the most favored by Chen Hua, the current head of the household department.

Speaking of Chen Hua's concubine, it was still a beautiful conversation in the Jin capital at that time, saying that Chen Hua still did not abandon when he was unhappy in his career and was demoted to the southwest, and waited until Chen Hua was used again. The people of the Jin capital once used to say that "although the basil is far away, it will eventually fall to the ground" to describe the loyalty of the relationship between the two - although Xie Shence feels that this sentence is more like a fallen leaf returning to the roots. Therefore, Chen Hua is also the most fond of this concubine surnamed Zhou, if it weren't for his wife but the wife who gave him the title, Chen Hua would have divorced his wife a long time ago.

After Chen Huashi's career was smooth, the Zhou family, which was not very close to her, began to be courteous to Chen Zhou, Chen Zhou is an understanding person, knows when to pick up and when to put down, so he reciprocates. The strength of the family has always been an important part of the marriage of the upper class, which has made the connection between the Chen Zhou family and the Zhou family increasingly close. And in the Zhou family, Chen Zhou's nephew is her spokesperson.

It's just that in the Zhou family, Chen Zhou's right to speak does not account for much weight. The Zhou family has more limited preferences for the Chen Zhou family, and when it comes to fundamental interests, the head of the family still has a very firm grasp of the family.

So in this case, the signal of "reconciliation" with Emperor Jin released by Chen Hua through Chen Zhou was not well understood by the Zhou family, or accepted. The "non-cooperation" of the Zhou family and the stubborn resistance of the Zhu family, the final outcome was to be removed from the Great Jin Dynasty Chronicles.

Chen Zhou's favorite nephew died at the hands of Xie Yi.

This incident not only made Chen Zhou's face plummet, but also made her lose the foundation of fighting for power and profit with the Chen family's housewife. Sad, angry, and ashamed, he sprinkled his stomach of resentment on Xie Yi's body, so he blew the pillow wind in Chen Hua's ear, asking Chen Hua to "bring Xie Yi to justice".

After that, there was Chen Hua's tireless impeachment of Xie Yi. From military rations to protest orders, from killing to retreating without authorization...... Changing the tricks. Anyway, Xie Yi's problems abound, I really want to find faults, and I can say it at any time.

Of course, these many impeachments, Emperor Jin has dealt with them symbolically and casually, from Chen Hua's impeachment to the present, Xie Yi has been verbally criticized for a few words. After the edict was read out in a burst of words, the messenger hurriedly picked up Xie Yi and then replied humbly with a low brow.

Xie Yi was accustomed to Emperor Jin's approach. This is an awareness he has had since he led his troops to fight, and he does not care about it.

As far as Xie Shence knew, Chen Zhou's family should have been a little too nervous because of the collapse of the family, and he urged Chen Hua a little too much, causing Chen Hua to be a little disgusted, and he hadn't handed the fold to Emperor Jin for a long time recently.

It's just an episode between the two, and it's just a passing one. What the two really care about is the battle situation on the Western Front.

The Qin State took advantage of the civil strife in the Jin to launch a war, and achieved a huge advantage at the beginning of the war. In the gap between the fierce battle between the Northwest Army of the Jin State and the He Lou Division, he crossed the Yellow River, and slowly gained a firm foothold in the early stage of Xie Yi's command from Yuncheng. Although about a quarter of the main force was later annihilated by Xie Yi's design and entered the stage of stalemate in the war, there is no doubt that all the foreshadowing done by Bai Liangyu before the war can ensure that the Qin State will continue to occupy an advantage for a long time in the future.

The war lasted for more than half a year, making it difficult for both countries.

Especially the Jin Kingdom, which was at war for many years. Although with the support of Huaiyang Dao, the Jin Kingdom survived the most difficult period, Chen Hua and Xie Shang continued to open up commerce on the basis of Wang Laoshangshu, which played a certain role in promoting the people's livelihood and economy of the Great Jin Dynasty. But the decline of the Great Jin Dynasty's national strength is inevitable.

The situation in the Qin State was not much better than that of the Jin State. Food has always been an important constraint to the development of the Qin State, most of the war for half a year, and it is an extremely time-consuming and food-consuming siege war, although it will not shake the fundamentals, but after this battle, no matter whether it wins or loses, the Qin State will not be able to recover for a long time.

Xie Shence and Xie Yi discussed the battle situation, on the one hand, calculating the gains and losses, and on the other hand, weighing all parties.

The focus of the uncle and nephew is different. Xie Yi was more concerned about the contrast between the two countries, while Xie Shence was more concerned about the impact of the war on the internal affairs of Jin.

Xie Yi's realm—well, let's call it the realm—and his vision are not at the level of Xie Shence. Xie Sheng once said that Xie Shenwei and Xie Shence are brothers, very similar to him and Xie Yi, but Xie Shenwei is more selfish than Xie Yi, and Xie Shence is more ruthless than him.

Xie Yi himself thinks that what Xie Shang said is very good. To some extent, this is also what the old lady wants.

Xie Yi and Xie Shence discussed for a long time, and when it was almost dark, Xie Yi said to Xie Shence: "Are you interested in going to the battlefield with your uncle?" ”

Xie Shence said with a smile: "Naturally, there is. ”

"Well, after a while, I'll let you see how powerful the Big White Fish Cavalry is!"

"Is there my Northwest Mo Sword?"

"Well, although I don't want to admit it, the big white fish cavalry is indeed very powerful."

At the end, Xie Yi added with a slight loss: "If you have a chance, you may see the wolf riding of the Xi King Tent in the future, be careful." ”

Xie Shen Ceqi said: "Xi Ren's king tent wolf ride, I have heard that the combat power is not inferior to the big white fish cavalry." ”

"Hehe, it's not that you don't lose...... The big white fish cavalry is the wolf rider of the king tent who was born with the taunt. If it weren't for the fact that the population of the Xi people was too small, the Qin State would have ceased to exist a long time ago. ”

"So powerful?" Xie Shence gasped.

Xie Yi sighed and said, "Xi people are less than 10,000, and if they are full of 10,000, they are invincible in the world." ”

Xie Yi tilted his head slightly, as if he saw a group of black torrents from the Tianshan Mountains, black dirt splashed by horses' hooves, and waving scimitars.
