Chapter 511: I was going to have my heart set on the bright moon
Only Jia Huan always feels that something is wrong.
According to common sense, Jin Guo just suffered a big loss last year, and in recent years, they need to recuperate for a while.
Now they don't have much ability to go south to invade Great Xia.
What's more, if they really wanted to invade Great Xia, how could they gather troops to garrison the border?
In the past, when they invaded Great Xia, they secretly gathered troops and killed Great Xia by surprise.
After all, the strongest cavalry in their Jin Kingdom was cavalry, relying on their super mobility, constantly attacking Great Xia with guerrilla attacks.
Positional warfare and siege warfare are not their forte.
Jia Huan looked at the movements of the Jin Kingdom, not at all as if he was going to invade Great Xia, but as if he was dragging the troops of Great Xia.
Of course, even if Jia Huan is a court official, he must pay enough attention to the movements of the Jin State.
Whether the opponent will attack Daxia or not is one thing, but the necessary defense is essential.
And then, the imperial court received a report from the western border.
The Great Moon Clan in the western part of Great Xia is also stationed on the border, eyeing the border of Great Xia.
After receiving this report, Emperor Chongkang and the ministers of the court and the central government couldn't help but gasp.
Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular!
It's just a Jin country, which gives them a headache, not to mention that there is now another big moon clan.
Emperor Chongkang and the ministers smelled a hint of conspiracy from it.
The Great Moon Clan is farther away from Great Xia, and the message delivery will be much slower.
But if you calculate according to the time of message transmission, in fact, the time of the border garrison between the Jin Kingdom and the Dayue Clan should be almost the same.
If there is no collusion between the two countries, even a fool will not believe it.
The borders of these two countries are not connected, and there is no ordinary contact, not even commercial contact.
When did they get together?
Could it be that they really want to unite and invade Great Xia?
Or is there a traitor in Daxia who is plotting from this?
So what is their plan?
The border between the Jin Kingdom and the Great Yue Clan's troops is not like they are really going to attack Great Xia.
However, Great Xia has to guard against it, and these two forces will inevitably involve a large number of troops in Great Xia.
If there really is something that the Great Xia traitor is planning, they must have the next move.
I just don't know, what is their next plan?
And just a few days later, the mystery was finally revealed.
It turned out that their next plan was along the West Sea.
In the fifty-second chapter of the Red Mansion Book, Xue Baoqin said: When I was eight years old, I went with my father to buy foreign goods along the West Sea, and who knew that there was a girl from Zhenzhenguo, who was only fifteen years old.
However, in the book, the specific location of the West Sea is never mentioned.
Now Jia Huan finally knows that the West Sea is in the southwest of Great Xia, and outside the West Sea Yanzi, there is a country called Nanban.
Unexpectedly, a month ago, the Southern Barbarian Kingdom suddenly invaded on a large scale.
The border garrison of Great Xia was taken by surprise and completely defeated.
Now in the southwest of Great Xia, thirteen cities have been occupied by the Nanban.
Wei Hong, a heavy general in the southwest, led his troops to counterattack, but unexpectedly ambushed by the central and southern barbarians, was seriously injured, and had to ask the imperial court for help.
After receiving the report of the southwest asking for help, Chongkang Emperor was immediately furious.
According to Wei Hong's report, the Nanban raised an army of 200,000 troops, which was menacing.
The southwest defenders, currently only less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, it is difficult to resist the attack of the southern barbarians, and the imperial court is also asked to send reinforcements quickly.
The southwest must be defended, if it cannot withstand the offensive of the southern barbarians, the southwest will inevitably erode.
And the southwest is in chaos, I am afraid that the Jin Kingdom and the Dayue clan will definitely take advantage of the situation.
In the territory of Great Xia, there are also big families who are ready to move.
When the time comes, once they start civil strife in many places, then Great Xia will soon fall apart.
Therefore, this battle in the southwest must not only be fought, but also won a big victory!
With the momentum of great victory, deter the Jin Kingdom and the Great Yue Clan, and at the same time deter the clans within Great Xia.
This victory will be able to bring peace to Great Xia for more than ten years.
As long as Daxia is given more than ten years of time for peaceful development, then Daxia will be able to smoothly carry out the reform throughout the country.
When the time comes, the rise of Great Xia will be irresistible.
But if this battle is lost, or if it falls into a state of anxiety, then Great Xia will soon fall into a quagmire.
The West Sea Yanzi is very far away from the capital, and it takes several months to send troops from the capital to the West Sea Yanzi.
Far water does not quench the thirst of the near, and when the reinforcements from the capital arrive, the southwest war situation is afraid that it has already been eroded.
Therefore, after some deliberation, Emperor Chongkang and his ministers finally decided to transfer 100,000 troops from Jingzhou and Yuzhou to help along the West Sea.
Then he gave Wei Hong an order and ordered him to defend strictly and wait for reinforcements.
Jingzhou and Yuzhou are very close to the West Sea Coast, and reinforcements from these two places will soon arrive.
With the soldiers of these two departments, plus the soldiers and horses of the southwest itself, the three are combined, and they can defeat the Nanban.
……
During this time, Jia Huan was training the Red Flame Army, and at the same time chatting with Sister Lin at home, and life was nourishing.
On this day, Jia Huan came to Qin Keqing's place to have a tryst with him.
Jia Huan saw that Qin Keqing's expression was not as good as before, and his eyebrows were frowning with sorrow.
He couldn't help asking: "Keqing, if there is anything, just tell me, I will help you solve it, don't hide it in your heart." ”
Qin Keqing hugged Jia Huan and said uneasily: "It's King Qin, he contacted me again, I didn't want to tell you about this matter." ”
Jia Huan smiled: "What can't you tell about this?" Didn't I tell you earlier? If there is anything, don't carry it alone, just tell me, everything is up to me for you. ”
Qin Keqing nodded her head, the sweeter she felt in her heart, and she said softly: "King Qin said that he wanted to see you, and asked you to meet in Mingyue Tower in three days." ”
King Qin wants to see me? Ask me to meet at Mingyue Tower?
After learning the news, Jia Huan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
When the King of Qin saw me, what did he do?
It's definitely not about admiring my character and appreciating my talent.
Now he is the commander of the Red Flame Army, and the Red Flame Army was created by the Son of Heaven, and it can be said that he is the personal guard of the Son of Heaven.
The force defending the capital, except for the Beijing camp, is the Red Flame Army.
With the identity of King Qin, he must not get too close to any general.
Once you get too close, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of Emperor Chongkang.
King Qin wants to see himself, but he is afraid that the picture is not small.
Qin Keqing saw that Jia Huan was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but say quietly: "San Lang, is it that the concubine body makes you embarrassed?" ”
Jia Huan hugged Qin Keqing and smiled: "Keqing, what does this have to do with you?" All this is just because I have the power of the army, that is, without you, as long as the King of Qin has a heart, he will definitely come to the door. ”
"You don't need to worry about men's affairs, you just need to take care of yourself. I'll check it out for you, and see if you've lost weight in a few days? ”
"If you lose weight, you must be served by the family."
All of a sudden, the wind and the moon are boundless.
Three days later, Jia Huan went to Mingyue Tower as promised.
Since King Qin wants to see himself, then it's good to see him.
If he doesn't come this time, presumably King Qin will find other ways to meet him.
Before that, Jia Huan had never been to Mingyue Tower.
After some inquiry, Jia Huan learned that Mingyue Tower was originally opened in Dongcheng, it was a teahouse, and it was still well-known in Dongcheng.
However, Jia Huan was originally a layman, and he had never even been to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion on weekdays, let alone any teahouse.
Although he also loves to eat tea, he has his own little girl at home to help him make tea, where is the need to go to the teahouse to eat tea?
Jia Huan walked into the Mingyue Teahouse with a few guards.
After entering the teahouse, Jia Huan found that there was a great difference between the teahouses of this era and the teahouses of later generations.
The arch corridor of the modern tea house, the winding path is quiet, elegant, simple and elegant.
And in the teahouse of this era, there are storytellers in it, and there are women who are ready to play songs or sell songs.
On the first floor, there was a group of boys and brothers, shouting and drinking.
As soon as Jia Huan entered the door, a guy greeted him.
"This son looks at the face of the student, this is the first time to come to our teahouse, right?"
Jia Huan nodded, he didn't know if King Qin was here or not, and he didn't know when he would come.
There was no prior agreement between the parties.
However, Jia Huan expected that King Qin wanted to see him, as long as others came here, King Qin would definitely be able to find him.
It's just that there are a lot of people on this floor, and it's really not a place to talk.
Jia Huan said, "Find me a private room and make a pot of good tea." ”
"Yes, Childe upstairs, please, please come with the little one."
Soon, the teahouse guy led Jia Huan upstairs to the private room.
The middle of the teahouse was originally hollow, and there were windows in the east facing the stage on the first floor and the river in the south.
If you want to listen to a story or play on the first floor, you can listen to it by opening the window.
If it's noisy, close the window and close the curtains.
Jia Huan sat for a while, and then a tea girl held a kettle with a long mouth to perform the tea ceremony.
The soft waist, figure, and elegant movements are pleasing to the eye.
After making tea, Jia Huan picked up the tea cup and sniffed it carefully, and sure enough, he smelled a faint fragrance of tea.
I took a sip and sure enough, the aftertaste was endless.
Next, Jia Huan waved his hand and pushed the tea girl down.
Jia Huan decided to wait here for a pot of tea, this pot of tea is finished, if King Qin has not arrived, then he will turn around and leave, and he will never wait for another moment.
And just when Jia Huan had just finished drinking a cup of tea, the door of the private room was pushed open, and the group walked in with a hearty smile.
The person who came in was very young, and Jia Huan was still a person Jia Huan knew, it was Feng Ziying.
Feng Ziying, Jia Baoyu and Xue Pan are familiar with each other, and several of them have drunk and partyed together many times.
Although Jia Huan and Feng Ziying are not familiar with each other, and they have never drunk together, they have met a few times and said hello.
Seeing Jia Huan, Feng Ziying smiled heartily: "I didn't think that Brother Jia would have arrived a long time ago, but I was late, and I would definitely be fined three glasses of wine." ”
This is a teahouse, but there is no wine for you to drink.
Jia Huan smiled slightly and said, "Brother Feng came just right, and I just came." ”
I had just drunk a cup of tea when they appeared.
It is obvious that they must have come earlier than themselves, and they will never come later than themselves.
As she spoke, Feng Ziying had already closed the door of the private room.
Jia Huan stretched out his hand and asked, "Brother Feng, please sit down and speak." ”
Feng Ziying smiled slightly and said, "In front of the prince, how can there be any reason for me to sit down and speak?" ”
"Lord Wang, please, I'll wait to avoid it first."
After that, Feng Ziying and a few other small people turned around and walked towards the back.
I walked to the wall and pushed it, but a door was pushed open, and several people walked in and closed it.
No wonder they asked me to meet at the Mingyue Teahouse, it turned out that this Mingyue Teahouse was their stronghold.
Jia Huan couldn't help but look at the remaining little guy in the house, and found that this little guy took off the cucumber skin hat on his head, and his temperament suddenly changed.
When Jia Huan saw it, he couldn't help but be amazed.
This temperament really changes when it is said, and it is a pity to change your face if you don't sing and perform.
This King of Qin, his face is similar to Emperor Chongkang.
However, he is younger, and his face is more resolute.
And there is a kind of affinity physique on his body, which makes people can't help but feel intimate at a glance.
This is similar to Qin Keqing's charming physique, and the two are worthy of being brothers and sisters.
Jia Huan saluted unhurriedly and said, "The last general has seen the prince." ”
King Qin smiled and said, "Why is Jinyu so polite? You and I meet in private, not on official business, so we don't have to be so formal. Come, let's sit down and talk. ”
"Lord Wang, please!"
King Qin smiled: "Why is Jin Yu so restrained? As this king said just now, why should you and I see each other like this? ”
"Jinyu, you probably know that Keqing is the younger sister of this king, and you and Keqing are in love, so you can be regarded as the sister-in-law of this king. You can call me brother casually. ”
Hearing King Qin's words, Jia Huan couldn't help but take a deep breath.
King Qin passed on the news through Keqing, and he must have known that Qin Keqing had no doubt about his relationship.
But being exposed in such a face-to-face way, Jia Huan still felt embarrassed.
Jia Huan couldn't help but say: "Please forgive me, the last general will not dare to obey." ”
King Qin smiled again: "Between you and me, why do you need to see each other like this? ”
"Your Uncle Jing of the East Mansion was originally a waiter in the East Palace of my father, and he also taught this king to read back then."
"Your uncle pardon in Xifu was also the guest of honor on my father's throne back then. Your Jia family is already close to my father, so why should Jinyu meet with this king? ”
Hearing King Qin's words, Jia Huan couldn't help but complain in his heart.
How did the Jia family fall, and why did the Rongguo Mansion eat and fall a few days ago, isn't it because of the closeness with your family?
Don't you have any pressure in your heart?
If I am close to you again, I will definitely drag the entire Jia family into the abyss.
Jia Huan couldn't help but say: "Please forgive me, the last general should abide by the duty of a courtier and dare not exceed the rules." ”
King Qin smiled: "You are very boring, I don't know what Jin Yu thinks of the current situation in my Great Xia?" ”
Just as King Qin spoke, Jia Huan's mind was in a hurry.
When King Qin came to see him through Qin Keqing, he must have a plan in his heart.
must be thinking of controlling the Red Flame Army in his hands by pulling himself in.
And secretly for so many years, King Qin doesn't know how many arrangements there are and how many manpower.
He wooed himself, afraid that it was just to wait for the day when he got into trouble, so that he could help him.
This is a rebellion, and once it fails, it will be a crime against the nine clans.
Of course, if you succeed, the reward is also extremely high, and you will have the power of the dragon.
Rebellion has always been a high-risk, high-reward speculation.
However, Jia Huan does not need such an opportunity. (End of chapter)
