Chapter 859: Isolate Hua'an
After all, at this time, the shape of Hebei is relatively severe, and the shape of Luoyang is relatively gentle, and the shape of Luoyang is relatively gentle for the time being, besides, there are many rivers in the direction of Jingzhou, and the terrain is relatively undulating, and the power of the chariot can be said to be greatly reduced, so it is more appropriate to transfer the chariot in the direction of Luoyang to Hebei for emergency.
"General Chen is right, at the moment, the shape of Hebei is relatively severe, and the Yan State focuses on building chariots and iron rope cavalry, which poses a great threat to our army, so this king decided to transfer 10,000 chariots from Luoyang City to Yecheng to strengthen the defensive strength in the direction of Yecheng, and once the silver in Guanzhong and Shuzhong arrives, this king will immediately order craftsmen to build chariots to rearm the charioteers under General Chen." Hua An looked at the generals and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the last general will return to the camp and collect the equipment of the soldiers." Chen Poyu clenched his fists and said.
Hua An nodded, and said with a straight face: "Okay, General Chen goes!" ”
When Chen Poyu heard this, he left the main hall with Chen Zhanhu and went straight to the location where the charioteers were stationed.
After Chen Poyu and the others left, Hua An looked at the generals and said: "Generals, now, Yan Guo is actively training, General Xie has expanded 20,000 chariot soldiers, I don't know if he can deal with the threat of Yan Guo!" After saying that, he seemed to have some doubts.
"Your Majesty, the last general feels that with General Xie's strength, he is fully capable of dealing with the threat in the direction of Yan State, especially the expansion of 20,000 chariot troops, which can be said to be a great increase in power, which is enough to deal with the impact of the Yan State Iron Rope Cavalry and Chariot Group." Zhuge Xiong said loudly.
"Yes! Wang, there is General Xie to guard Hebei, and the army of Yan must not go south. Deng Qiang also said.
Seeing that all the generals were more optimistic, Hua'an no longer doubted Xie Ai's ability, and judging from Xie Ai's transformation of the chariot. After the transformation, the weapons equipped with the vehicles are much more powerful, especially the giant crossbow in front of each vehicle, which is extremely powerful and can definitely be invincible on the battlefield.
At this time, in the military warehouse of Luoyang City. There were still 3,000 giant crossbows, and Hua An immediately ordered the baggage soldiers to transport these giant crossbows, along with the 5,000 chariots under Chen Poyu's command, to Yecheng and hand them over to Xie Ai for use.
Hua An believed that after Xie Ai had these weapons, he could immediately start training, so that the charioteers under his command could form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
But. Hua An also knew that Xie Ai would not be able to evade Yan Guo's reconnaissance when he carried out large-scale training, and once Murong Jun learned that Xie Ai was training more powerful charioteers, he would definitely be prepared, so as to make countermeasures, in order to quietly bury this killer feature, Hua An felt. It is very necessary to conceal Yan Guo's meticulous work.
As for how to conceal Yan Guo's fine work, Hua An and the generals discussed it together.
After some careful deliberation. All the generals believed that the charioteers should be trained in two places at the same time, one in the light and the other in the dark, and 20,000 charioteers in the light. The charioteers who are trained normally with the original equipment, while the charioteers who are hidden in the shadows are trained according to the new equipment, thus greatly improving the combat effectiveness of the charioteers.
Moreover, in order to avoid the investigation of Yan Guo's meticulous work as much as possible. Hua'an felt that this secret chariot force should be hidden in the valley far away from Yecheng, and the entrance and exit of the valley should be completely sealed, not only can outsiders not enter at will, but also the soldiers participating in the training inside cannot leave the valley at will.
After thinking of specific training measures, Hua An immediately wrote a reply letter to Xie Ai, in which he told Xie Ai everything about everything, and asked Xie Ai to secretly train this unit, as a killer unit under his command, which can play a very huge role at a critical time.
After writing the letter, Hua'an dispatched his henchmen to immediately send this urgent letter to Yecheng and hand it over to Xie Ai.
Subsequently, Hua An and his subordinate generals began to study the issue of how to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army, and decided to improve the troops under his command to a certain extent, so that they could exert more powerful combat effectiveness.
#####
In the direction of Jiankang City, the henchmen sent by Huan Wen have arrived in the city, and they have separately lobbied the ministers of the imperial court, so that these imperial ministers will all stand on Huan Wen's side, so as to completely isolate Hua'an.
All the ministers of the imperial court, especially the ministers who were more loyal to the Great Jin court, were very dissatisfied with Hua'an's transgression, so under the lobbying of Huan Wen's henchmen, they all had plans to stand on Huan Wen's side, and even the generals of the Yangzhou army were more supportive of Huan Wen, and expressed dissatisfaction with Hua'an's faux pas.
In Danyang Yin's mansion, Huan Wen's henchman Sun Sheng came to visit Xie An, he knew that now in the court, the most trusted person of the Empress Dowager Chu Lianzi was Xie An, for this reason, he felt that getting Xie An's support was more important than anything else.
"Xiaguan Sun Sheng pays a visit to Xie Fu Yin." Sun Sheng saw Xie An, bent down and saluted.
Xie An smiled and said softly: "What kind of wind is this, blowing Sun Senjun." ”
Sun Sheng also smiled and said softly: "Xia Guan came to visit Xie Fuyin on purpose, I haven't seen him for many years, my old friends back then have all become Fuyin, and he is also a big celebrity around the Queen Mother." ”
Xie An hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Sun Senjun has won the award, Yin He is worried about the district government, what is the matter with Sun Senjun looking for me, you might as well say it bluntly!" ”
Obviously, Xie An knew that when Sun Sheng came to find him, it was definitely not as simple as seeing his old friend, he must have other plans.
Sun Sheng nodded and said softly, "Xie Fu Yin should have heard about the direction of Luoyang City!" As the emperor's courtier, the king of the north built the palace of the north, and the hall of the palace of the north palace is more magnificent than the palace, such an arrogant act seems to be a declaration to the world, he the king of the north intends to replace the great jin, such a rebellious move, is tolerable or unbearable, the lower officials feel that people with wolf ambitions like the king of the north should be punished together, I don't know if Xie Fuyin thinks so. After speaking, he looked at Xie An and waited for Xie An's statement.
Seeing Sun Sheng lashing Hua'an with words, Xie An immediately understood Sun Sheng's intention, after all, Sun Sheng was an important staff member under Huan Wen and a core confidant of Huan Wen.
Xie An smiled and said: "The Northern King has transgressed, and Xie An is also quite angry, but the Northern King supports his own troops, so what can I do with civil officials?" After speaking, he looked at Sun Sheng.
Seeing that Xie Ai also seemed to be dissatisfied with Hua'an's transgression, Sun Sheng was very happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "As long as Xie Fuyin has this heart, it is enough, my southern king has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and he can be the backing of Xie Fuyin, and he will definitely not let the northern king annex the Great Jin court." ”
Seeing that Sun Sheng finally said the purpose of this trip, Xie Anxin secretly sighed that Huan Wen's conspiracy was powerful, first he wanted the imperial court to add nine tins to Hua'an, so that the ministers of the imperial court were quite jealous of Hua'an, and then, with Hua'an's arrogance, all the ministers of the imperial court were pulled to his side.
"With the King of the South guarding the court, the official believes that the court of the Great Jin Dynasty will definitely be for generations." Xie An naturally would not choose to offend Huan Wen, after all, he felt that only by letting the southern king and the northern king contain each other would it be a blessing for the imperial court.
Xie An's statement was equivalent to standing on Huan Wen's side, and after Sun Sheng heard it, he was naturally very satisfied, and hurriedly said: "With Xie Fu Yin echoing the southern king above the court, I believe that the northern king will definitely be subdued." ”
"Haha! Sun joined the army and won the award, and the official was favored by the imperial court, so he naturally had to share his worries for the imperial court. Xie An said softly.
Sun Sheng seemed extremely satisfied, and after greeting Xie An for a while, he found a random reason to leave.
After Sun Sheng left, Xie An had a premonition that the shape began to be unfavorable to Hua An, after all, if all the ministers in the direction of the imperial court were on Huan Wen's side, then Huan Wen could justify anything, and Hua An would not be able to move an inch.
Although the army under the command of Hua'an is the strongest, under the attack of Nanwang and Yanguo, there is no advantage at all, and the war does not completely rely on the combat effectiveness of the army, and the people's will and prestige are also very important.
However, as an official of the imperial court, Xie An will not help Hua An, of course, he will not help Huan Wen, what he has to do is to maintain the balance of power between the southern and northern kings as much as possible, so as to save the imperial court from the danger of overturning.
Of course, some small actions made by Huan Wen in private naturally could not escape the eyes of Hua'an's subordinates, in Jiankang City, the fine works sent by Hua'an had already smelled the smell of danger, and they had already learned that Huan Wen had contacted the ministers of the imperial court and was ready to isolate Hua'an's move.
#####
In order for Hua'an to take countermeasures, Xizuo immediately sent the detected news to the direction of Luoyang City.
In the direction of Yecheng, when Xie Ai was discussing with his subordinates how to deal with the threat in the direction of Yanguo, a team led by Li Shuqu arrived in Yecheng.
These water conservancy talents naturally came to Hebei to develop agriculture, but the construction of water conservancy requires a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, Xie Ai and his subordinates saw Li Shuqu and others coming to Yecheng, they all had a very bad feeling, they felt that if Hua'an put all his strength into the construction of water conservancy, there would not be enough resources to expand the chariot troops.
"General, the king sent Li Shuqu to Yecheng to be responsible for building water conservancy, is it to tell us that there is no hope for expanding the chariot army." Yang An said with some disappointment. (To be continued......)
