Chapter 713: Two Intelligence Networks
Hua An looked at Wang San and said softly: "What's the matter, I feel uncomfortable watching others being rewarded." With that, he paced in the big tent.
Wang San sighed, hugged his fists and said: "Big brother, this is not fair, I wait for my birth and death to lay down such a large area of the imperial court, it is not as high as these generals, not only me, but also the soldiers are a little resentful." After saying that, he sighed again.
Hua An smiled and said softly: "No matter how high the official position is, it's just a name, why do you care so much?" The imperial court canonized it like this, and it has its own plans for the imperial court. After speaking, his expression was quite relaxed.
"Big brother, you can really calm down, the imperial court let Tie Niu and Thunderstorm supervise the military of Yizhou and Liangzhou, it must have ulterior motives, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the eldest brother!" Wang San said anxiously.
Hua An smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said calmly: "The so-called king called the ministers to die, and the ministers had to die, if the court wants to be unfavorable to our courtiers, what can we do?" After speaking, he looked at Wang San easily.
Wang San was greatly disappointed when he heard this, and said with a straight face: "Big brother wants to learn from General Zu Ti and end up depressed?" I'm not going to agree, huh. After speaking, he immediately turned around and strode out of the Chinese army's tent.
Seeing Wang San leave the big tent of the Chinese army in a huff, Hua An showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, he naturally would not follow General Zu Ti and end up depressed, but he would definitely not learn from Cao Pi, Sima Zhao and others, conspiring with his henchmen to usurp power all day long, after all, there are many generals under Hua An, these generals come from all over the world, how many generals really follow him, and how many generals are undercover agents of the Great Jin Dynasty, Hua An has no bottom in his heart.
But. Huaan can be sure that there are both of them, and they are in the minority, while more generals are fighting for their own interests.
If you really follow your generals, you naturally don't have to worry, and the undercover agents of the Great Jin Dynasty are worth being wary of, so Hua An has been cautious all these years, walking on thin ice, and everywhere reflects his determination to swear allegiance to the Great Jin Dynasty. did not show the slightest dissatisfaction with the Great Jin court.
That's why. Therefore, for so many years, every piece of land laid down by Hua'an, the imperial court was relieved to hand it over to him as the governor. The rest of the generals were not sent to take charge. Of course. Another reason is that Hua'an knows how to operate, and it can be self-sufficient in military salaries, grain and grass and other materials. He never reached out to the Great Jin Dynasty to ask for money and food, and even offered grain, grass and food to the court, which made the officials of the Great Jin Dynasty very satisfied, and they were willing to hand over the mess of the newly recovered land to Hua'an to take care of.
It's just that things must be reversed, even if Hua'an's appearance is good, but when the strength under his command develops to be strong enough, it still inevitably arouses the fear and uneasiness of the court officials, after Hua'an marched north from Liangzhou and occupied Qinzhou and Yongzhou one after another, the officials of the imperial court began to pay special attention to Hua'an, and sent many undercover agents to infiltrate the Hua'an army to hold different positions, so that Hua'an's every move can be observed.
Fortunately, Hua'an did not have any unsubordinate actions and remarks, therefore, during the period of occupation of Guanzhong, the imperial court did not embarrass Hua'an, so Hua'an Tong Guò made some efforts to transform Guanzhong, which had been damaged by the war, into a land of fish and rice for 800 miles, in order to produce enough grain, grass and various materials.
After the Hua'an soldiers went out of Tongguan and divided the troops into two roads, and quickly captured a large area of land in Bingzhou and Sizhou, the scholars and officials of the imperial court were afraid of Hua'an again, they did not expect that the Hua'an Army, which had been cultivated in Guanzhong for more than a year, actually had the strength to divide the troops into two routes, and launched an attack on Sizhou and Sizhou at the same time, and captured most of the land of Bingzhou and Sizhou in a very short period of time, and formed a pincer encirclement of Hebei.
At this point, the officials of the imperial court began to study how to weaken the strength of Hua'an, but it didn't take long for the 200,000 elite army of Yan State to suddenly go south, and in one fell swoop captured the invincible Wei Emperor Ran Min, and shocked Hebei, which also made the officials of the Great Jin Dynasty feel extremely frightened, they were afraid that Yan State would bring the power of victory to Jiangnan in one fell swoop, so they temporarily put the problem of Hua'an again, and intended to let the Hua'an army compete with the Yan army, so as to weaken the strength of Yan and Hua'an at the same time.
It's just that the development of things did not go according to the ideas of these court ministers, and the Hua'an Army and the main army of Yan State, separated by a distance of more than two hundred miles, fell into a confrontation, and no one took the initiative to attack.
At the same time, in the direction of Jiankang City, there were also rumors that were very unfavorable to Hua'an, so these ministers pushed the boat down the river and took Liangzhou and Yizhou, the governor of Hua'an, and soon sent their henchmen into Liangzhou and Yizhou to seize their own territory.
When he unloaded the military affairs of Liangzhou and Yizhou from the imperial court, Hua'an had a premonition that the imperial court was going to attack him, after all, the cunning rabbit died and the lackeys cooked, and the birds were good and the bow was hidden, although the strength of the Yan State and the Dai State was still very strong, but the overall strength was under the Great Jin Dynasty, so these imperial ministers were a little impatient.
Even if he felt his danger, Hua'an still did not show his dissatisfaction with the Great Jin Dynasty, not because Hua'an was weak and loyal, but because the time was not ripe, besides, the court's actions were not big, and it had not touched the core interests of Hua'an, nor the core interests of its generals.
"General Qiyu, the source of the rumors about the walk in Jiankang City has been found." A henchman colonel walked into the big tent of the Chinese army and said with his fists clenched.
When Hua An heard this, he frowned and said loudly: "Say it quickly, who is spreading rumors to be detrimental to Ben Jiang." ”
The henchman junior colonel clasped his fists and said: "General Hui, according to the detailed investigation arranged in Jiankang City, the source of the rumors is a group of businessmen from Liaodong who sell ginseng. ”
"Hmph, businessman, how could a businessman do something that would damage the general, this group of people is from Liaodong, presumably Murong Jun can't bear to be lonely, and wants to play tricks with the general, this trick is really damaging." Hua An said hatefully.
"What does the general mean, is it a ghost made by the people of Yan Kingdom?" The henchman said.
Hua An nodded and ordered, "You go down!" Sue sù Jiankang City's fine work, continue to stare at this group of businessmen, and be sure to confirm their identities, whether they are Yan Guo's fine work. ”
"Yes, General." The henchman colonel clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and went to give orders.
At this moment, the person who learned the rumors was a businessman from Liaodong, and Hua'an could basically determine that it was Murong Jun's secret counter-plot, the purpose of which was to make discord between the court of the Great Jin Dynasty and himself, thereby causing internal turmoil in the Great Jin Dynasty, so that the Yan State could reap the benefits of the fisherman.
As soon as he thought of this, Hua An was very worried, now, the Great Jin Dynasty is considered to be in the middle of the plan, and has begun to weaken himself, if he does not resist, he will end up with the same fate as Zu Li, but if he rebels against the court, it will inevitably cause a new round of civil strife in the Great Jin, so that the army of Yan can take advantage of the civil strife in the Great Jin Dynasty to sweep the Central Plains and Hebei, and finally unify the entire world, so that the Chinese Paradise will be ravaged by the Xianbei Iron Cavalry, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Therefore, Hua'an must not only prevent the imperial court from weakening itself, but also avoid causing civil strife in the Great Jin, at least, before the Yan Dynasty coalition army was defeated, Hua'an could not have friction with the other two main forces of the Great Jin, the Jingzhou Army and the Yangzhou Army, otherwise, Murong Jun's treacherous plan would be completely successful.
Of course, there is a saying that the development of things is not necessarily in accordance with the original trajectory, in addition to balancing the relationship between the Jin Dynasty and itself, Hua'an also has to do the worst, that is, once the relationship with the Jin Dynasty is completely out of control, the Yangzhou Legion and the Jingzhou Legion are hostile to themselves, and they must make a decision immediately, lead the main army back to Guanzhong, and rely on the steepness of Tongguan to hold the Qinchuan for 800 miles in Guanzhong, so there is still a chance to turn the tables.
Of course, this is only the worst plan, unless it is absolutely necessary, Huaan will not give up the land that he has worked so hard to build, and let Murong Junbai pick up such a big bargain.
"Uh-huh." Just when Hua An frowned and pondered, Cong Shi Huhou walked into the big tent and saluted Hua An with his fists folded.
Hua An nodded and asked Hu Hou what happened in sign language.
Hu Hou reported what happened in Liangzhou and Yizhou fluently in sign language, and he told Hua'an that after Thunderstorm and Tie Niu accepted the canonization of the imperial court, they did not show any abnormality, they first expressed their ecstasy, and then they were very puzzled, and did not understand why the imperial court suddenly promoted themselves, and they were somewhat apprehensive.
When Hua An heard the news, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, this is the real Iron Bull and Thunderstorm, he didn't expect that he hadn't seen it for so many years, and Thunderstorm and Iron Bull were still so virtuous.
It turned out that Hua'an had installed several smart men in the mansion of Thunderstorm and Iron Bull many years ago, of course, in addition to them, the main generals and civil officials under Hua'an were monitored by Congshi, and even in Jiankang, there were smart people secretly arranged by Hua'an, Yecheng, Jicheng, Longcheng, Guzang, these important cities are naturally indispensable, in some important cities, Hua'an even arranged multiple smart people who are not subordinate to each other, in order to increase the accuracy and reliability of the detection news.
In addition to the smart soldiers, a large number of fine works formed by excellent scouts in the army are also distributed in various important positions to secretly collect intelligence for Hua'an, so that Hua'an can learn as much as possible about the shape of the world.
Hua'an believes that with the two completely independent intelligence networks of Congshi and Xizuo, it is enough to make himself foresight and invincible in the troubled times. (To be continued......)
