Chapter 4 Go to the water again

In the mansion of Princess Sanssouci, the eldest princess of Poyang and Li Huan sat at the table to talk, and the female official behind the eldest princess held several scrolls.

A portrait unfolds on the table

In the painting is a portrait, the eyebrows in the painting are sparse, gentle and elegant, at a glance you can see that he is a well-educated person

Eldest Princess of Poyang: This is the third son of the Wang family. Since childhood, he has read poetry and books, and he is also talented and quick-witted.

The Taiyuan Wang family is a famous family in the world, and the family is quite noble, and it is a first-class surname among the Han people

Li Huan didn't feel anything about this person, and when the eldest princess of Poyang saw this, she ordered the maid to open the second portrait

The painting is also a portrait, in which the person has a lion nose and a wide mouth, swallow jaws and tiger whiskers, majestic and majestic, and there is a heroic spirit between the eyebrows

The eldest princess of Poyang: This is the second son of the Xie family, who is currently serving in the army, and has been made a general at a young age

The Xie family is also a famous family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it is a family surname that can be called the same as the Wang family

Li Huan still didn't react, and the eldest princess of Poyang was ready to ask the female official to open the third painting

Li Huan: There is Sister Lao, but...

Eldest Princess of Poyang: My sister has something to say

Li Huan: My sister would like to thank the royal brother and sister for their loving heart. But my father has just passed away, and even his body has not been saved... Loyalty and filial piety is the big festival, at this time the little sister really has no intention of talking about marriage, I want to keep filial piety for my father for three years, and then talk about marriage after the expiration of filial piety

The eldest princess of Poyang sighed: My sister grew up in a place where the Hu people were entrenched, and she never forgot my Han etiquette, which is really respectable. Is this section negligent on the part of my sister, or is my sister thoughtful. His Majesty the Emperor and I saw that my sister was coming from the north, and we thought that we could make my sister rely on her for life, but we forgot about filial piety. I will go back to the palace to tell Your Majesty, and when the period of filial piety expires, I will find a good family for my sister.

The eldest princess of Poyang said a few more gossips to Li Huan, said goodbye and left.

After the eldest princess of Poyang left, Li Huan instructed the maid: Please ask General Zhige to come in

After canonizing Li Huan as a princess that day, Emperor Xiaowu named Wang Tuo as the general of the Zhige, specializing in protecting Li Huan's safety.

Wang Tuo came in, and Li Huan retreated

Li Huan: Just now, the imperial sister came and told me about my marriage

Wang Tuo was shocked when he heard this, and he hung his head and was silent

Li Huan: I told the royal sister that I would mention the matter of marriage after three years

Wang Tuo: The period of filial piety is only three years...

Li Huan: Brother, Huan'er will never forget it, please believe Huan'er

Wang Tuo: How can I not believe you, but the emperor said that he would choose a family affair for you among the family names... And I just came from a family of guards...

Li Huan: Brother, I came to you because I had a plan in my heart.

Wang Tuo looked at Li Huan with a puzzled expression

Li Huan: I just heard from the imperial sister that Fu Jian, the king of Great Qin, is going south to attack my Great Jin in the near future, and the imperial brother has been busy discussing border defense with his ministers in recent days to prevent the southern invasion of Qin. My brother is a good martial artist, why don't you fight for fame with a knife and a shot in front of you? If he made great contributions and was crowned a marquis, then his brother's status would be very different from now. When the time comes, the emperor's brother will not allow him to come and propose.

Wang Tuo was overjoyed when he heard this: It's still my sister who thinks about it thoroughly.

Li Huan: I just chatted with the imperial sister, and I heard that it was the champion general Xie Xuan who led the army to resist the Qin State this time. The imperial sister treats me best on weekdays, I will go and tell her, ask her to give the emperor's brother a few kind words, and send you to General Xie Xuan's army to meet Fu Jian.

When Fu Jian, the king of Great Qin, was 8 years old, he began to devote himself to studying the classics of scripture and history. With the continuous growth of knowledge, he set up the great ambition of helping the people and unifying the world, and then made friends with many heroes of the world.

Because he studied the classics of the Han people since he was a child, Fu Jian stood out among a group of vicious and brutal Hu people, without the ferocity and brutality of the Hu people, but treated people with generosity and benevolence, and it can be said that he is a Sinicized Hu people.

After Fu Jian ascended the throne, he boldly appointed Wang Meng, Quan Yi and other Han people as important ministers, lightly punished the thin endowment, respected Confucianism and Taoism, revised the code, stopped the army, persuaded the farmers to teach the mulberry, and rested with the people, and implemented a series of policies that benefited the country and the people, so that the former Qin Empire embarked on a road of enriching the country and strengthening the army.

In just a few years, the Central Plains region has regained its vitality and its national strength is booming.

Immediately afterwards, Fu Jian waved his army to attack other independent regimes in the north and began the journey of unifying the north.

In just over ten years, Fu Jian led the Qin army to defeat Qianyan, Qiuchi, Qianliang, and Daiguo, controlled the entire northern region of China, and captured the Shu land owned by the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and confronted the Eastern Jin Dynasty regime in the south of the Yangtze River.

At this time, Fu Jian was 38 years old, and he was ambitious in his prime, and he had the momentum of Wei Wu's whip back then.

The Qin Empire was strong at this time, far superior to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and in the process of unifying the north, it trained a tiger and wolf army that won all battles. So Fu Jian, like Emperor Wu of Wei back then, was ready to point his sword at the south of the Yangtze River, intending to eliminate the Eastern Jin Dynasty and dominate the world.

During Fu Jian's preparations for the southern expedition, a scout had already transmitted the news of his preparation for the southern invasion back to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

The Eastern Jin Dynasty was shocked when he heard the news that the government and the opposition were shocked, and after consulting with the ministers, Emperor Xiaowu of the Jin Dynasty issued an edict ordering the champion general Xie Xuan to be the forward governor, and led the armies of Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Yangzhou with a total of 80,000 people to go to Weishui to fight against the Qin army.

Xie Xuan was born in a famous family, and was the son of Xie Yi, the assassin of Yuzhou, and the nephew of Taifu Xie An. He has the talent of the country and is good at governing the army. In the early years, when he was guarding Guangling and was responsible for the military defense of the Jiangbei line in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, in order to resist the attack of the former Qin, he recruited brave men among the people from the north, selected good generals, trained elite soldiers, and trained a force with the most combat effectiveness in the whole of China at that time - Beifu soldiers.

Xie Xuan led the Beifu Army to win many victories against the Qin army, and he was invincible and invincible, and the former Qin was quite afraid of Xie Xuan and called him a famous general in the world.

Wang Tuo knows that Li Huan is well-intentioned, if he can follow the famous generals to conquer, the future will be smooth

So after being recommended by the eldest princess of Poyang, Wang Tuo came to Xie Xuanjun.

The army will soon march to Weishui, and on the other side is the army of tigers and wolves under Fu Jian.

After the army set up camp, Xie Xuan personally led the generals to climb the heights to check the reality of the Qin army.

At this time, the Qin army and all the armies marched to Weishui one after another. Among them, there are 250,000 vanguard troops led by Fu Jian's younger brother and Fu Rong, the general of the Eastern Expedition, and 600,000 main infantry and 270,000 cavalry led by Fu Jian, a total of 1.12 million troops.

Looking across the river, I saw the Qin army waving its banners, its armor was distinct, its soldiers were elite, its troops were neat, its momentum was violent, and it was murderous. There are also many soldiers and generals, and there are many people. The huge army array seems to be beyond sight, and the rear army is still coming in a steady stream, when it is really a million people, throwing whips and cutting off the stream...

Seeing this situation, the main general Xie Xuan was still calm and calm, but he was secretly anxious in his heart: the Qin army was strong and powerful, and he only had 80,000 people, how could he win this battle?

And I don't know what the generals think in their hearts? If the generals are intimidated, depressed, and demoralized, then there is no need to fight this battle, and this battle will definitely be lost.

Thinking of this, Xie Xuan secretly looked at the generals, but found that all the generals were afraid, but Wang Tuo was not only fearless but had high morale, Xie Xuan was secretly surprised in his heart.

Wang Tuo was secretly thinking at this time: Weishui is the place where he and Li Huan fell in love, and Li Huan was deeply in love with herself, how could she live up to her wishes?

Wang Tuo secretly made up his mind in his heart: this battle must break through the Qin army, make meritorious contributions, and return to the dynasty to marry his most beloved woman
