Chapter 32 Breaking the game
Now that the fight in the north is really starting, it is an unstoppable fact that the Yuwen tribe enters the pass, but as long as the Zhenbei Army defends the dead, the Yuwen tribe will suffer heavy losses even if it enters the pass. Li Xin means that the Xianbei tribe can enter the pass, but it cannot exceed 500 miles. We must try our best to control the impact of the war within a certain range.
This is a very difficult thing to do. First of all, Li Xin is not any general of the court and does not serve in the court. Although he has troops under his command, it is impossible for him to pass through the court to manage affairs in the north, and it is unlikely that he will do so.
From a rational perspective, what Li Xin, or the southwest should do now is to wait for the north to make a big splash, take the opportunity to raise an army and set a future for himself for a lifetime, but doing so will inevitably lead to a disaster and blood flowing. Although Li Xin was a human being for two lifetimes, he was just an ordinary person in his previous life, and he did not have the kind of heroic heart that would rather let the world down. Compared with those big figures, in his eyes, the lives of ordinary people are also life.
At this time, the entire Southwest Group was pushing him forward. It was impossible to retreat or retreat in the southwest without moving. Li Xin had to make a difference.
After hearing Zhao Jia's words, Li Xin said, "I have a plan in my mind that can control the situation in the northern border and allow the Southwest Army to leave Shu. However, this plan is feasible or not. Mu Ying needs to discuss it carefully after he comes back."
Zhao Jia frowned. He looked at Li Xin and sighed slowly: "Mr. Marquis, you are also a person who has read history books. All kinds of emperors and heroes in history books are full of dry bones. Some people can still say "I get a piece of the pie" even if their parents are cooked. Marquis, let go of the thought of compassion in their hearts. You are still young. As long as we occupy the capital, there is still time to clean up the old mountains and rivers in the future."
Li Xin sat in his position, closed his eyes and said nothing.
I have to admit that even though he has reached this position today, he is still an ordinary person at heart, and at most a smart ordinary person. His ideas and concepts are still too different from those big names. At this time, if the Ninth Princess and his children are arrested, he will not be able to say the ruthless words "I get a share of the pie."
But in life, you always have to follow your true heart and pursue profits. In the end, there may be one more hero in the history books, but one less Li Chang'an will be missing.
He closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and said, "I want to try the method of both worlds."
After saying that, he stopped talking, closed his eyes and thought about the matter. After about half an hour, Mu Ying, dressed in military uniform, rushed to Liyuan from outside the city. Before he could enter, he bowed to Li Xin and said, "What's the matter for the Marquis summoning his subordinates?"
Li Xin opened his eyes and slowly breathed out: "Let Brother You'an tell you."
Zhao Jia picked up the information from the table and handed it to Mu Ying, and then said lightly: "This is the news from Jizhou. Yuwen's Ministry has been holding it in the whole winter and finally can't hold it in. Now it is estimated that it has started fighting with the Zhenbei Army. The situation in the northern part of Jin is in chaos."
Mu Ying did not have the ability to see everything at once. After reading the letter carefully, his eyes lit up.
The guy slapped his thigh and shouted, "Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? The north side of the Ji family is in chaos. We can take the opportunity to leave Shu and point the sword to the capital. Now the Ji family has no longer the spirit of Emperor Wu, nor is it... I don't believe that they can still fight both sides!"
He wanted to say that Ye Sheng was here, but there was a disciple of Mr. Ye at the scene, so he kept silent.
Mu Ying bowed to Li Xin with some excitement.
"The Marquis has given the order. We have been preparing for so many years and have long been unable to hold back!"
Li Xin opened his eyes, slashed Mu Ying deeply, and then said, "Brother Mu, now the Southwest Army has left Jianmen Pass, facing the 100,000 troops in Hanzhong and the 50,000 troops in Ankang Peijin, what is the chance of winning?"
"Ten percent!"
Mu Ying answered without hesitation. He said excitedly: "Jincheng has produced a lot of thunder in recent years. Even after we have been training troops for so many years, even if we are still not as good as the Pingnan Army back then, it is not much worse. At this time, when we leave Shu, facing the imperial army, it is just a question of how much it costs. There is no question of whether we can win!"
Although there are only 150,000 to 60,000 people in the southwest, the current military quality is catching up with the elite Pingnan Army of that time. With the blessing of heavenly thunder and the familiarity with the southwest terrain, the 150,000 people placed in the southwest gateway by the imperial court are unlikely to stop the Southwest Army from leaving Sichuan.
Of course, after the Southwest Army left the Southwest Army, how many chances of winning could be achieved in the real face of the Gyeonggi Imperial Army, is that it is unknown.
"That's OK."
Li Xin opened his eyes and said slowly: "Send orders to prepare for war, and wait for news from the north. Once the war in the north is fierce, Mu Ying and Li Shuo will lead 50,000 people out of Shu to attack Hanzhong, and Ankang!"
Hearing Li Xin's words, a red light appeared on Mu Ying's face, and he immediately stood up and bent down at Li Xin and fisted: "Subordinate, please do not know!"
However, Zhao Jia heard some different meanings. The white-clothed guru frowned and looked at Li Xin and said, "Where are you, Marquis?"
Li Xin grinned: "Since I resigned, the emperor has issued five imperial edicts to call me back to Beijing, and it is hard to refuse the kindness."
"When I have some more days, the news from the north will be clearer, so I will leave for Beijing."
Speaking of this, Li Xin looked at Zhao Jia and said slowly: "Go clean up the mess."
Mu Ying's face changed drastically when she heard this, and Zhao Jia seemed to have guessed something, and was not surprised. He looked at Li Xin and sighed deeply: "It is feasible to do this, but it is too risky to go in person."
"Others can't do it except me."
Marquis Jing'an's face was calm. He turned to look at Mu Ying and said with a smile: "As long as Brother Mu was not bragging, he could really defeat the imperial army, then I would be absolutely safe in the capital. The more beautiful the battle in the southwest, the louder my voice would be in the capital."
Speaking of this, Mr. Li paused, then half-squinted his eyes and smiled slightly: "Of course, Brother Mu can also deliberately lose this battle and let me die in the capital."
As soon as Li Xin died, the southwest was under the Shu King's Mansion. The Shu King is Mu Ying's son, so Li Xin said this and hit the Mu family a little.
Mu Ying was sweating coldly. He thrust, knelt in front of Li Xin, and kowtowed: "Marty, I will never have such thoughts!"
"The southwest is not going to have such thoughts!"
Zhao Jia, dressed in white, stood up from the chair, tidied up his clothes and bowed respectfully to Li Xin.
