Did Yang Jian really want to fight to the death, or was he just a grasshopper after autumn, unable to jump for a few days? The attack on Lingwu was just to scare the Han army in order to distract the Han army's attention? This is actually another question.
became a new problem.
Li Xingchen's request for the army going north is that everything should be done as soon as possible. Yang Jian should also understand the importance of time. The current Han Dynasty does not have enough time to waste with him, so as long as the Han army's time is wasted until the Han army can't bear it anymore
, the goal will naturally be achieved. At that time, the Han army's first choice will definitely be to retreat instead of chasing Yang Jian.
At the beginning, the Huns, Xianbei and Turks actually used this method to rise step by step. They constantly harassed the long borders of the Central Plains Dynasty in the south in order to subdue them. When the Central Plains Dynasty was exhausted, they concentrated their forces and attacked fiercely.
Take a bite.
Yang Jian may no longer pursue a local advantage over the Han army, but it does not mean that he will give up this great opportunity to delay time.
But as the Han army signed a peace treaty with Yu Wenxian, and there was thunder and rain in Tuyuhun, it was inevitable that Yang Jian would still be the only enemy of the Han army, so could delaying time and going back and forth like this work?
I'm afraid no one knows its function.
The most successful person in history who used this method was definitely Liu Huangshu. From the time when he was living under someone else's roof and had to farm to survive, to later when he entered Sichuan and became an emperor, Liu Bei did achieve a miracle of an era no matter what future generations say. But after all, the Three Kingdoms
It is a troubled time, but it cannot be considered a troubled time now. Li Xingchen has stable control over the Han Dynasty's existing territory and is encroaching on Guanzhong step by step. Even if Yang Jian can really exhaust the Han Dynasty, it will be difficult for him to go further. He will spend his whole life
I'm afraid he's just a clown.
Whether to advance or to deal with the situation, Han Qinhu and Li Jing could not make up their minds.
I'm afraid only those who really know Yang Jian know about it now.
Thinking of this, Han Qinhu lowered his head and glanced at Yin Shou's body on the ground. It was a pity that this guy was dead. Otherwise, if he handed it over to the guys in white robes, he should be able to get a lot of information.
It’s just that God didn’t give me this chance.
"In any case, winning Yinzhou is the first priority." Niu Hong stamped his feet. He felt that he could no longer keep up with the thoughts and ideas of uncle and nephew Han Qinhu. He could only stand aside and watch them.
Be anxious.
"That's right, let's take Yinzhou first," Li Jing also said at this time, "We have to believe that Lingwu can handle Yuan Xie, and Yang Jian still has no sign that he went to Wuyuan, which means he should
If we still regard Yinzhou as an important stronghold, then we will attack Yinzhou directly regardless of the situation!"
When Han Qinhu conquered Shuofang, the news that Liang Rui and Yin Shou committed suicide by taking poison reached Chang'an. It was still the end of September.
The autumn air is crisp in September, the ginkgo leaves are swaying in the wind, and the ground is covered with a golden color.
Li Xingchen looked at the battle report in his hand with some emotion.
No matter how you say it, Liang Rui is a fierce general. Historically, it was Liang Rui who led the army to put down the subsequent great rebellion in Bashu. However, now Bashu has been integrated by Li Xinchen, and Liang Rui has no chance to follow Yu Chijun's old path in Bashu.
Show off your power.
Li Xingchen didn't know if Liang Rui's way of death was aggrieved, but he had to admit that it was beyond his expectation. He thought that Yin Shou would die for his country, but at least Liang Rui should actively or passively choose to wait with Wei Xiaokuan.
The same path as human beings.
But Li Xingchen now knows that he was wrong.
This is also a stubborn person.
At the same time as Liang Rui's death, news arrived that veteran general Yu Yi had died of illness in the northwest.
Yu Yi's physical condition was not very good before, otherwise Li Xinchen would not have specially mobilized Chun Yuliang from Hanzhong to the northwest to take charge of Lingwu defense on behalf of Yu Yi, but he did not expect that the old general would not be able to support him this autumn after all.
However, Yu Yi lived to be more than seventy years old. Judging from the medical methods of this era, he was considered to have died. The imperial court had already drafted the title and title, and Yu Yi was posthumously awarded the title of Duke of Yong in recognition of his achievements in presiding over the northwest over the years.
This is also the first duke consecrated since the founding of the Han Dynasty.
The official system of the Han Dynasty has always been high-ranking officials and low-ranking officials. Even those like Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie, even if they were highly respected ministers, were nothing more than rural lords. This was mainly because the Han Dynasty modeled its country on the system of prefectures and counties of the Qin Dynasty, forming states.
The three-level system of counties and counties has actually divided the places very neatly. Li Xingchen does not plan to allocate any more land as a fief for the nobles. The income of the nobles no longer depends on the output of the fiefs, but comes from
Salary to the imperial court.
When the Han Dynasty was founded, the policy of parallel prefectures, counties and feudal states was implemented, which naturally led to the Rebellion of the Seven Kings. The Marquis of Guannei was also powerful. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, this ruler was one of the most talented and strategic rulers in Chinese history.
Er used the simplest and crudest way to implement the Tuien Order and the county system, and finally the Han Dynasty completely transformed into the state, county system.
Now that Li Xingchen has great power, he has the ability to directly implement the state, county and county system. Of course, he can do it in one step, so that he will not leave any hidden dangers to future generations. Without the actual fiefdom, the title on his head is actually already
It's a false title, it's just that it's different from the salary that everyone gets, but they have already reached this position, how many people will really focus on the salary that is not much different?
Therefore, the title naturally becomes dispensable, and it is not incomprehensible that there are high-ranking officials and low-ranking officials.
Yu Yi was granted the title of Duke after his death, which made many people catch wind of it. Perhaps His Majesty was also using this method to show everyone that being granted the title of Duke would be satisfying while he was still alive, but for further advancement, he would have to pay for it with his life.
.
"I just don't know how long Old General Chunyu can hold on," Li Xingchen flipped the memorial in his hand. He could also guess Yang Jian's strategic intentions. He didn't believe that Yang Jian would feint. Since he wanted to fight Lingwu,
He must have really tried his best.
Can Chun Yuliang and Xu Deyan withstand this attack?
Lingwu is really a place full of disasters.
Yang Lihua brought a cup of tea to Li Xingchen and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, what news has come from the north?"
Li Xingchen smiled and nodded: "Your father did not defend Yinzhou, but made a desperate attempt to attack Lingwu. I am afraid that I am not sure whether this battle will succeed or fail."
Yang Lihua bit her lip, which meant that everything was still uncertain.
Dad, maybe there is still a chance.
And Li Xingchen noticed something, pointed to the ground and said: "But look at the grasshoppers on the ground. Although they are jumping happily now, winter is about to come. Do you think this grasshopper can really jump?"
