The ups and downs of the war in Jiangnan made Zhao Shen, who was separated by half of China, excited, and he couldn't wait to fly to Jiangnan immediately to get involved.

But Zhao Hanzhang didn't let him go.

mentioned it twice, but Zhao Hanzhang didn't agree, so Zhao Shen put down his mood, it was only three things, and he had to save the third chance until Zhao Hanzhang thought it was appropriate.

He needs military merit to sit firmly in the position of the squire of the military department, and he and Zhao Hanzhang know each other.

Pressing the heart of meritorious service, Zhao Shen's excited brain began to run rapidly, he grasped the key, and asked Zhao Hanzhang: "I have heard of Wang Dun, I heard that he is broad and decisive, how can you be sure that he will stop fighting when Jingzhou is armistice, instead of decisively taking Jingzhou?" ”

Seriously, Yangzhou's troops are above Jingzhou, and Wang Dun is also very capable, if it is just an infighting between the two states, it will not be the current situation where Wang Dun is defeated and retreated;

Zhao Hanzhang tun soldiers in Yiyang County to be Jingzhou's backer, and Wang Dun's backer King Langya was pulling his hind legs hard, not only would not give him support, but also wanted to take the opportunity to take away his military power, so he had to share the troops, on the one hand, to prevent Zhao Hanzhang from attacking him from the north, and on the other hand, to prevent King Langya from transferring troops from Jiangnan and Guangzhou to attack him.

Thinking about it this way, Wang Dun is really miserable, and he suffers from the enemy on his back.

No wonder he was rebellious, he wanted to completely replace the king of Langya to become the king of Jiangnan, and he must first settle the inside, if there is a battle in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, Jiangnan wants to have a chance of winning, he must first unify the interior, this time they transferred troops to overhaul the Yellow River is indeed an opportunity.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "It's definitely not stupid, he didn't find out my true strength, he didn't dare to act easily, but there is no absolute, and I am afraid that he will act impulsively, so I asked Yuzhou to add 20,000 troops in Yiyang County, which can support Jiangxia County at any time." ”

Jiangxia County belongs to Jingzhou, and Wang Dunxi must pass through the place.

Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said: "Actually, this battle can be fought, Wang Dun sent us a good excuse, whether it is when he strikes first, or we fight directly now, our reasons are all legitimate." ”

Looting taxes and grain, they all know that it is Wang Dun's temptation, but they can completely announce to the world that it was Wang Dun who was instructed by King Langya to do it, and when the time comes, they will wave their army south, which is reasonable.

It's just that the casualties of crossing the river to fight this battle will be very large, and now the army's food and grass are not ready, in order to let the soldiers survive, she can only order them to forcibly levy military food on the spot, and at that time, the court is afraid that it will lose the hearts of the people in Jiangnan.

Jiangnan, since the Battle of Wu State, has not fought much in the big war, usually at most a conflict between some states and counties for power and territory, casualties are not large.

Unlike the great battles of exterminating the clan and slaughtering the city in Jiangbei, the wealthy clans and people in Jiangnan are stable as a whole, if her arrival brings war and family ruin, no matter how good her reputation is, advocating more fighting for the people, they will also resent her and blame her.

Jiangnan is the old people of Wu State, and they are already estranged from the Central Plains, so after this, it will be more difficult to heal the hurt in their hearts, and it will be even more difficult to think of them in the future.

And if you don't return to your heart, sooner or later there will be chaos in Jiangnan.

So for the sake of long-term planning, she is willing to wait a little longer, and is willing to spend more effort to plan this land.

Zhao Hanzhang reminded Zhao Shen that he should also remember this when he really led the troops south in the future.

"Calculate the time, Liu Kun should have received the letter, right?" Wang Xuan is progressing very smoothly, and Yuan Li also said that many of the wealthy families in Jiangnan are interested in returning to their hometowns and want to return to their hometowns, and even the local gate valves in Jiangnan are interested in attracting angels such as Lu Yushi to cross the river to participate in the recruitment examination.

In fact, the gate valve family in the north is still prejudiced against the recruitment examination, and there are not many children of the family who participate in the recruitment examination every year, and the poor students and low-status scholars account for most of the places.

It is because there is no distinction between dignity and inferiority in the recruitment examination, and anyone with talent can participate, which is a shame for Gaomen, and it is very embarrassing to take the exam and compete for official positions with a group of people whose family backgrounds are far inferior to their own.

But for the gate lords in Jiangnan, this is an excellent opportunity, because of the hostile relationship between the Three Kingdoms, after the unification of the Jin Dynasty, they can rarely enter the court and participate in political topics.

Is it that they don't want to?

No, it was because their passage into the court was choked by the gate lords of the Northland, and the channel for promotion was also occupied by them.

Why do they support King Langya?

Isn't it because Wang Dao and King Langya gave them a political promise that they slowly accepted King Langya's rule in Jiangnan.

Now, Zhao Hanzhang has given them the opportunity to participate in politics in another way.

Now that the decline of King Langya has been revealed, the wealthy families who are good at understanding current affairs naturally favor Zhao Hanzhang.

She hoped that Liu Kun could also be so knowledgeable about current affairs, although Zhao Shen admired Liu Kun's loyalty, but it was precisely because of his loyalty that he expressed doubts, "Will Liu Kun agree?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him and said, "Why don't you agree?" This is for His Majesty to unify the world, and it is a merit that can be remembered for eternity, what reason does Liu Kun have to refuse? ”

Zhao Shen opened his mouth, unable to refute for a long time, and it took him a long time to find a reason, "Liu Kun and Wang Dun are good friends. ”

"He and Wang Cheng are also friends, and he is even more friends with Zu Ti," Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand and said: "Don't mention Xiaoyi in front of the country, I think Liu Kun will agree, don't believe us bet." ”

When Zhao Shen heard this, he was immediately interested and asked, "What are you betting on?" ”

"If I win, you can quickly repair your house and move over, don't live in the Seventh Uncle's Ancestral Mansion."

Zhao Shen couldn't help but be happy when he heard it, "Is it that the Seventh Uncle Ancestor is bothering you again?" ”

After getting the affirmative answer, he was even happier, and he danced happily, "Then it seems that the Seventh Uncle Ancestor is annoying me now." ”

That's great, treat the enemy, as long as the other person is not happy, then you are happy.

Zhao Hanzhang really didn't want to break the lawsuit against them anymore, and planned to solve it from the root, "If I win, you have to move out of the Seventh Uncle's Ancestral Mansion before the year." ”

"There is not much time left before the Chinese New Year, and it will take at least two months to repair the house, not to mention that you haven't received a reply from Liu Kun yet, there is not enough time." Zhao Shen took out the tortoise shell and divined it, but the result was not very good, but he still gambled, "If I lose, I will move out before the Lantern Festival." ”

Zhao Hanzhang also understood Zhou Yi, and saw at a glance that it was a hexagram, and couldn't help asking, "What are you asking?" ”

"Ask me if I'm going to lose."

Zhao Hanzhang: "...... Hexagram also betting? ”

Zhao Shen raised his head and grinned at her, "Bet!" ”

What the Seventh Uncle Ancestor said is right, Zhao Shen's gambling nature is really big, no wonder he can make the Seventh Uncle Ancestor like that, the father and son are both in the same lineage.

After the bet, Zhao Shen pulled the topic back, "Are you sure that Wang Dun will deal with King Langya first, and then deal with you?" ”

"Yuan Li found out that Wang Dun had twice quietly suggested to King Langya to attack the north, King Langya refused, and Director Wang also objected, I have seen Wang Dun, he is a person who looks broad and cheerful on the outside, but has a deep mind and is good at patience," Zhao Hanzhang said: "But that was before. ”

"At that time, when he took the Qingzhou army to the king of Langya, he was halfway through, because he felt that his wife Princess Xiangcheng and the princess's maidservants were burdensome, so he lost the princess of Xiangcheng and gave the maidservants carried by the princess to the soldiers who accompanied him."

Zhao Shen opened his mouth wide, he didn't know about it.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him, of course he didn't know, because it happened last year, and it was only a year and a half, because he erased a lot of traces, so not many people knew, but she thought, Director Wang must know.

See you tomorrow
