Chapter 18 Unscrupulous

"What can you do?"

Ye Lin sneered and said, "I have really let the Xianbei tribe enter the pass without any damage. They can gallop across the pass by more than 100,000 or even 200,000 cavalrymen. Then you can't catch up with them!"

"My father was able to conquer the Northern Zhou Dynasty because the Northern Zhou Dynasty was no longer a nomadic Xianbei. They also wanted to seize the city and would not move. When more than 100,000 cavalry moved, you could not even see their shadows!"

Li Xin had no expression on his face.

"But they always have to eat."

"No matter what kind of soldier you are, you have to stop and eat. It takes time to grab things, right?"

Young Master Ye Si groaned: "You are following their butts after you?"

"There are more than 100,000 troops carrying horses, and the food consumed every day is amazing. Unless they can still fight the world after entering the pass, they can only grab some things and leave, and come again if they lack things."

Ye Lin frowned deeply.

"If Jimenguan can't block the Xianbei, how can you fight them off?"

Li Xin was silent for a while and said, "I have thunder, a lot of it."

"In recent years, the Southwest has been working on this thing almost day and night. Senior brother should know that it is not very useful for scattered cavalry, but if there are enough numbers and some imperial guards to finish it, you can easily defeat the Xianbei tribe head-on."

Ye Lin was silent for a while.

"If you send some thunder to Jizhou, Jizhou City will be as solid as a soup. My elder brother told me that this thing is a powerful weapon to defend the city."

"Ruo Yemao is now at Jimenguan, and I have asked someone to send this thing to Jimenguan!"

"But Ye Mao is not in Jimen Pass now, and you are not in Jimen Pass, senior brother. The court is not even going to send a person with the surname Ye. If the Ye family has no response to this, what if they guard Jizhou? That is also the credit of others!"

"Senior brother also knows that Zhenbei Army is the family business of the Ye family and the foundation of the Duke of Chen, and has made contributions to others. Over time, will Zhenbei Army still have the surname Ye to you, Duke of Chen?"

"Anyway, I will never agree to letting Xianbei people enter the pass."

Ye Si Shao's voice was like thunder: "In ancient times, foreign races have all been suffering from the suffering of life. The Ye family's family business is heavy, but it is not as important as the lives of the people in the north."

"If Zhenbei Army fights for nothing, it will fight for nothing. If my father is here, he will not let you open the door and let foreign tribes enter the pass."

"It's not to let Xianbei enter the pass."

Li Xin also frowned: "I have said before, fight as much as you should. If you lose, you can't beat it. If you retreat, you can save your vitality."

Ye Lin stood up, looked at Li Xin silently, and then slowly said, "I have always known that Chang'an, you are an ambitious person. My father said that you are the fifth in the Ye family, so no matter what you do, I will treat you as your own."

"But this doesn't work."

Ye Lin slowly breathed and asked, "Chang'an, I, 60 million people in the Jin Dynasty, and foreign races have entered the pass. At least hundreds of thousands of people will be displaced. If you really become the emperor in the future, don't you feel ashamed when you think about these hundreds of thousands of people?"

Li Xin was silent for a long time, and finally stood up and bowed to Ye Lin.

"What my senior brother taught me is that in this way, I will no longer make trouble on the Zhenbei Army."

"I will not ask how to fight Jizhou. If I win, I will naturally be fine. If I lose, I should also clean up the mess, just pretend that I have never said anything before."

Ye Lin stood up and returned the salute, then glanced at Ye Mao behind him, and slowly spoke: "I have split from the Duke Chen Mansion. The previous words were just one person's words. Zhenbei Army is the family business of Duke Chen Mansion. Ye Mao's words are more effective in this matter, but my attitude is already here. Zhenbei Army does its best. Even if Jimen Pass is broken, the Ye family is worthy of the people of the world."

In fact, there is no such thing as a war in this era. Generally, after the army of both sides starts a war, if the war loses 10% of the war, it will run away, and if the war loses 30% of the war, it will run away. If you can persist until the war loses 50% of the war, you can be called an elite soldier.

Zhenbei Army has been trained by the Ye family for so many years and is naturally an elite soldier. But even so, once the Zhenbei Army's casualties reach 60% or 70% of them, they will be defeated.

The dispute between Li Xin and Ye Lin is not about whether to fight or not, but once the fight begins in the north, the Ye family should have some effort.

Li Xin means that the Ye family has put in 50% of their strength. If the situation is wrong, they can consider preserving their vitality. Ye Lin means that no matter what, the Ye family must do their best.

There is no right or wrong between the two sides, but the two people have different ideas and concepts. Li Xin’s approach should be more rational, while this young master Ye has a higher sense of family and country.

Ye Mao, who had been silent, saw that the two of them stopped arguing, smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Fourth said it is right. If my grandfather is here, he would not want to see the Zhenbei Army not exert his life. However, if we really fight with all our strength, our Ye family is not in the Zhenbei Army, and we can't watch outsiders pick peaches."

He looked at Li Xin and sighed: "What can I do if my uncle?"

"I can't do anything."

Li Xin spread his hands and said helplessly: "Or let the newly appointed general Zhenbei die halfway before the fight begins."

"If you really want to guard Jimen Pass, senior brother, you and Ye Mao, it would be better to write a letter to the Zhong family in Yunzhou City, agreeing that Yunzhou City and Jimen Pass must watch over each other. With reinforcements from Yunzhou City, it would not be so easy for Xianbei to break through the pass."

Mr. Ye Si nodded, then looked up at Li Xin, and said lightly: "Chang'an, you seem to be determined to be in chaos in the north. Is the north a mess? The southwest will take the opportunity to leave Shu."

Li Xin's face was calm.

"No matter whether the north or north is in chaos, the Southwest Army cannot stay in the southwest forever."

"Originally, Senior Brother, you are in Hanzhong, and I am not embarrassed to confront Hanzhong head-on. Now, Senior Brother, you are not leading troops in Hanzhong, which is a good thing. The uncle who is very ambitious and talented will suffer a great loss sooner or later in Hanzhong."

"And, senior brother, you are despised me."

Li Xin took a deep breath and said slowly: "It's not that I hope that the north will be in chaos, but that the King of Yan is there. Sooner or later, the north will be in chaos. Senior brother should have known that after the Xianbei tribe was granted the title of King of Yan, they entered the pass more than once to investigate the terrain. What they wanted to do was obvious."

"My senior brother and Ye Mao said this. It's not about using the Ye family to do something, but about the Ye family trying to stop losses in this chaos."

Marquis Jing'an's face was calm and said calmly: "If you, senior brother, or any of Ye Mao, can become the general of Zhenbei at this time, then Li Xin personally went to Jizhou to help the Ye family guard the city. People outside the city are there, and those who are dead in the city will die."

"It's a pity that neither senior brother nor Ye Mao can go."

Speaking of this, Li Xin let out a breath and bowed to Ye Lin.

"Li Xin has been with his senior brother for more than ten years, and he should know that I am not a person who can do anything. If I really want to use any means, I would say something not very polite. Today, the surname of Ji may still be Ji, but it may not be necessary for anyone to keep his word."

As he said that, Marquis Jing'an laughed at himself.
