Although there are some things that seem to be a little bad for Ke Tili, an outsider, to know, Zhang Jiashi did not order the send-off, but in front of Ke Tili, he opened the bamboo slip sealed with wax. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
......
This bamboo slip note is a note jointly signed by Liaoning County Shou Su Jiao, Liaoning County Lieutenant Deng Mao and Liaoning County Cheng Shen Jun to Zhang Jiashi.
The content mainly says that in about mid-April, about 150,000 Huns north of Liaoning County launched a fierce attack on the remnants of the Donghu people. A series of fierce battles broke out between the two sides at the exit of the Great Wall north of Dingxiang City and all the way to the edge of the Donghu people-controlled area in the Jilin area.
Due to the corresponding covenant agreement, Su Jiao and Yujian dispatched a large number of supplies from Liaoning County and Shang County during this period, and the reinforcements were still the Donghu people who were losing and retreating.
However, for the Donghu people, this kind of support does not seem to be enough, because before the war, Liaoning County and Shang County had already detoured from the exit of the Great Wall or made a detour to the area controlled by the Su Shen people, and supported a considerable amount of various materials.
These materials did not involve the various equipment and equipment currently in service of the Qin army, but there was not much difference from this situation, that is, many of the weapons and materials transported to the territory of the Donghu people were much more advanced and sophisticated than the various equipment and equipment produced by the Donghu people themselves.
These materials are mainly the inventory and seized equipment that Zhang Jiashi has gradually transferred to Liaoning or Shangjun in the past few years.
For Zhang Jiashi, these equipment can be used to discard, but the expenditure of discarding these equipment is also very large, and it also takes up the production time of military manufacturing in various places.
Therefore, Zhang Jiashi posted a considerable part of the freight and transferred these materials and equipment to Liaoning County and Shang County as a basis for supporting the Donghu people to resist the Xiongnu attack.
Zhang Jiashi knew that although these equipment were already much behind the corresponding equipment and equipment in service in the Great Qin Empire, it was undeniable that there were. Zhang Jiashi knew very well that these instruments could also be said to be an act of capital for the Donghu people.
Therefore, in Zhang Jiashi's heart, he was actually reluctant to help the Donghu people with these equipment. But without the support of these equipment, whether the Donghu people could hold out for a longer time and attract enough combat power of the Huns, Zhang Jiashi really didn't have a certain number.
If the Donghu people could not support it, then the Xiongnu would also be able to threaten the borders of the Great Qin Empire with more forces. This is undoubtedly a more threatening option for Zhang Jiashi.
The two evils are balanced and tend to be lesser. Zhang Jiashi had to choose an option that was relatively less harmful in many senses.
Besides, there is a truth that Zhang Jiashi is also very clear about its significance, that is, between countries, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, once the conflict of interests between the two sides reaches the level of irreconcilability, then for these two countries or forces, it is the time when war breaks out.
The existence of the current Donghu people is a positive factor for the pressure on the borders of the Great Qin Empire. Zabekh, who launched the invasion of the Great Wall. At present, under the strong survival pressure of the Huns, they finally chose the path of alliance to the Great Qin Empire.
Because if he rejected the "olive branch" extended to him by the Great Qin Empire, then for him and the Donghu people, it would definitely be the worst option, and there would be no one.
And Zhang Jiashi naturally will not harm the Donghu people at this time, because this practice is indeed not in line with Zhang Jiashi's conception of the interests of the Donghu people.
If the Donghu people were destroyed by the Huns, then the border line of the Great Qin Empire. I am afraid that they will have to face the threat of the Huns in an all-round way, even if there is a Great Wall, but if the Huns concentrate part of their forces and form several points to attack the border line of the Great Qin Empire, it will become impossible for the garrisons along the Great Wall to reinforce other places. Because no one knows, after they transfer the corresponding garrisons to reinforce other places, will a large number of Xiongnu troops attack the empty area with lightning speed in the next moment?
Therefore, Zhang Jiashi had to use the Donghu people as an important bargaining chip to contain the Huns, and constantly consolidate the weight of this bargaining chip, because this is the only way to do so. Donghu was able to play as a valuable existence in the Qin-Hungarian game.
It's just that the song not only said that the Donghu people and the Huns broke out again, but also that the Donghu people hoped that the Great Qin Empire could fulfill the covenant and send troops to reinforce the Donghu people and the Huns' battle line, and the two armies would unite to thwart the Huns' ambition to destroy Donghu.
......
In this matter, in fact, Su Jiao and Su Jiao can make a choice, but whether it is Su Jian or Su Jiao, they did not make a rash decision, but let Zhang Jiashi decide whether this aspect is true or not.
Zhang Jiashi could understand the caution of the two of them, because he knew very well that if he was in the perspective of Su Jiao and Su Jiao and the others, he really couldn't make the corresponding decision rashly. Because in this way, if one is not done well, it will lead to a full-scale war between the Great Qin Empire and the Huns in advance. If such a situation does occur, they cannot afford to bear the responsibility.
Zhang Jiashi could understand the situation of Su Jiao and the others, but he also knew very well that he could not make a good choice about this decision to send troops into Donghu to assist in the battle. Because he didn't know what the odds would be if a full-scale war broke out with the Huns. In other words, can he resist the all-out offensive of the Huns in the expected losses of his bottom line.
Therefore, after Zhang Jiashi saw this content, he really couldn't make a judgment immediately.
Because of such a situation, it can really be big or small. Zhang Jiashi didn't want to lose a lot because there was no binding covenant with the Donghu people, and this situation was even more inconsistent with Zhang Jiashi's own interests.
But before Zhang Jiashi could think about whether he should gather all the core personnel under his command in Shuangyueyi to discuss, something that surprised Zhang Jiashi appeared in front of Zhang Jiashi.
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
Chen Ping looked coldly at this unashamed Xiongnu envoy, he didn't know when the other party knew that the Great Qin Empire and the Donghu people had secretly concluded an alliance against the Huns.
But if you think about it with your knees, there are only about ten people who know about this matter, and among the people in charge of execution, whether it is Su Jiao or Yujian, there is no possibility of leaking secrets, and although Shen Jun has not joined the Great Qin Empire for a long time, in terms of Sun Po's personality and conduct, Shen Jun should also be a person who can be trusted by the other party.
So there's really something wrong with that. Perhaps not within the Great Qin Empire, but on the side of the Donghu people.
Of course, Chen Ping's heart coldly appeared with a person's name and a somewhat vague appearance, and he subconsciously shook his head, because he didn't think that today's Qin Min still had the ability to detect the core secrets of the Great Qin Empire.
It's just that Chen Ping didn't respond positively to this Hun envoy who made him very unhappy, but kept the coldness on his face. Quietly watching the other party act as a guest, he spoke the half-baked dialect of the Guanzhong region with a big grin.
And after a while. A herald Zhonglang handed Chen Ping a copy of Zhang Jiashi's edict.
After Chen Ping read the contents of the edict, a shallow smile appeared on his face.
He asked this Zhonglang to go back to Zhang Jiashi's mansion and asked him to tell Zhang Jiashi that since Zhang Jiashi made such a decision, then there was nothing wrong with arranging everything from Zhang Jiashi's choice.
After Chen Ping left this herald, he said to the Xiongnu envoy: "Since your envoy is on the order of your country Shan Yu to question the alliance between our country and Donghu, then this prime minister can also clearly say an answer to your envoy, that is, our Great Qin Empire makes its own choice. What is your ability to interfere in our internal affairs and why?"
Chen Ping, who said this, smiled coldly: "Since your country thinks that our country seems to have no basis for the implementation of the corresponding agreement a few years ago, then this prime minister can also clearly say one sentence, that is, from today onwards, our Great Qin Empire will also abandon the corresponding agreement between the Great Qin Empire and the Xiongnu formulated on the periphery of Yulin three years ago.
Chen Ping who said this. On the contrary, when he saw the stunned expression of the Xiongnu envoy, he felt very funny in his heart, because in such a situation, it should be that this Xiongnu envoy really did not expect that the Great Qin Empire would have such a tough attitude in this regard.
Chen Ping then thought of a situation in his heart, that is, even if Zhang Jiashi did not plan to start a full-scale war with the Xiongnu at this time, once the Donghu people were annexed by the Xiongnu. Then the losses for the Great Qin Empire will be even heavier.
Of course, even if the current Donghu people repelled the offensive of the Huns, I am afraid that they will not be of much help to the Great Qin Empire.
Because the Huns hit the Donghu people who were originally in the midst of civil strife, and even more developed the situation to this point, in this way, how much national strength the Donghu people could have left to bring to the Huns, Chen Ping could think of this not very good result with his knees.
But for Chen Ping. Chen Ping could think of Zhang Jiashi's concerns in this regard, that is, once the Donghu people really couldn't resist it, then Liaoning County and Shang County, which had no corresponding strategic preparations, would probably suffer very heavy losses. This is an unacceptable situation for Zhang Jiashi.
Chen Ping knew that in Zhang Jiashi's conception, the development foundation of Shang County and Liaoning County would greatly affect the stability of the situation in the north, and the development and recovery foundation of Qi Land was also based on the stability of these two regions as a very important premise.
If the two counties suffered heavy losses, it would have a great impact on Zhang Jiashi and the next layout of the Great Qin Empire.
And launching a full-scale war against the Huns at this time was certainly not a good choice for the Great Qin Empire. Because of him, Sun Po, Li Zuoche and Ma Sikuo and others all believed that if the time could be delayed for one to two years, then the Great Qin Empire would have more spare strength to deal with the war of the Huns.
It's a pity that the Huns brought too many "surprises" to the Great Qin Empire during such a period of time, so that the Great Qin Empire lost more choices.
In particular, the second offense of the King of Xiqiang led to a serious crisis on the border in the northwest region of the Great Qin Empire.
Although he was a little puzzled by Zhang Jiashi's idea of forming an alliance with the Qiang people at the right time, at the moment, this choice was directly stifled in the plan by the ending of the Xiqiang King.
Chen Ping can very much understand Zhang Jiashi's helplessness in this regard, if it weren't for such a thing as the king of Xiqiang, I'm afraid that it would be impossible for the Huns to want to let the great enemy of the Qiang people fall into civil strife and lose their vitality so simply and directly.
It's a pity that Chen Ping can also think that things have developed to this point, and it is useless to think about this aspect of things more.
The Qiang people had little hope, and if the Xiongnu delayed for a year or two to consolidate their control of the Hexi Corridor again, it would bring a greater threat to the original western border areas.
Of course, there are Han Xin, Ma Sikuo, Fan Xu and Yu Ziqi in this area, but once the gap in strength between the two sides is too large, and the Great Qin Empire will not be able to mobilize more troops to support it for a while, I am afraid that even Ma Sikuo and Han Xin will have to face defeat, not to mention Fan Xu and Yu Ziqi, who are not as capable as the two.
It can be said that the rash attack of the Qiang people and the impact of the successful counterattack of the Huns made Zhang Jiashi have to change his original plan.
In such a situation, Chen Ping could think that Zhang Jiashi wanted to crush the Xiqiang King, who seemed to have a miserable end, but Zhang Jiashi also thought about it this way, because Zhang Jiashi himself had something very important to do.
And Chen Ping looked at the Xiongnu envoy who seemed to be stunned for a long time, and he couldn't help but remind the other party with some amusement: "Shouldn't your envoy tell Mao Dunshan of our country's decision at such a time?"
After hearing Chen Ping's words, this Hun envoy seemed to wake up from a dream, he looked at Chen Ping in disbelief, and continued to use his half-baked Guanzhong tone to persuade Chen Ping to frown a little: "Prime Minister Chen, are you sure that what you said is like declaring war with our Huns, is it what the regent meant?"
Chen Ping snorted coldly, looked at the envoy of the Huns, and said impatiently: "The meaning of the king is the meaning !!of the Great Qin Empire, do you have any other ideas?
Hearing Chen Ping's words, several Zhonglang outside the door pulled the Hun envoy out directly.
This way of sending off guests made this Hun envoy really not expect him to have such an end.
However, what worried him even more was that once he informed Mao Dun of the Great Qin Empire's choice, what would happen to him.
Because Mao Dun's order to him was not to force the Great Qin Empire to go to war with the Xiongnu, but to get as much material as possible from the Great Qin Empire during this period of time.
And now, the envoy didn't dare to imagine what would happen to him...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. Chapter 6 Gambling Website: .>
