Xiangyang City, is a core city in the middle of the Great Jin Dynasty, but also the original Jin Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty border, when the Great Jin Dynasty was not yet unified, the family army was stationed in Xiangyang, helping the Ji family to resist the Northern Zhou Dynasty for many years.

Later, the Northern Zhou Dynasty was wiped out by Ye Shengping, Xiangyang became a central city from a border city, and the family army also went north from Xiangyang to Yunzhou, but even so, Xiangyang can still be regarded as a military town, and before the Hanzhong Army and the Ankang Army of the imperial court were not stationed in Xiangyang, Xiangyang also had more than 20,000 troops stationed.

At this time, 70,000 or 80,000 Hanzhong troops plus 40,000 Ankang were stationed in Xiangyang, plus the defenders of Xiangyang, this former border city of the Great Jin Dynasty already had 150,000 horses, even more than the number of breeders stationed in Yunzhou.

Uncle Xie Jing has been living in a big house in Xiangyang for several months at this time, and in the past few months, the imperial court has sent a kind of family to be his "deputy".

The imperial court sent a "deputy general" at this time, the intention of which was already very obvious, even Xie Jing himself could understand that this breeder's seed balance was here to take over the affairs in his hands in an all-round way, and the reason why he took on the title of deputy general was nothing more than that the imperial court gave him some face, and he didn't say it explicitly.

In this case, Yuan Zhao Tianzi was still afraid that Xie Jing would not understand, so he personally wrote a letter to Xie Jing, in which he instructed his maternal uncle to listen to the opinions of Chong Heng, although Xie Jing has no ability, but he is not too stupid person, after receiving the letter from the Son of Heaven, he basically handed over all the affairs of the Hanzhong Army, and stayed in Xiangyang City to drink and listen to music, only by name.

However, although Xie Jing has no ability, but his heart is very high, when he was in the Taikang Dynasty, he even once had the idea of competing with Li Xin, but now although he is idle, but his heart is quite unhappy, he drinks in the house all day long, and often gets drunk.

On this day, Xie Jing found a girl in Xiangyang City, and brought it back to his house to drink and have fun. ”

Xie Jing was originally unhappy, and snorted sullenly when he heard the words: "What is he looking for me?" ”

"Seeming...... It seems that there is military affairs to discuss. ”

Hearing this, Xie Jing pulled out the chest of the beauty in his arms, then pushed the girl aside, and said lightly: "Since there is military affairs, let him come in to see me." ”

"Yes."

Xie Jingping retired from the girl and the subordinates beside him, took a sip of hot tea, and sobered up a little.

It didn't take long for Chong Heng, who was dressed in iron armor, to stride in, bowing to Xie Jing and clasping his fists: "The last general Chong Heng, I've seen the general!" ”

In any case, Xie Jing is still the general of the Hanzhong Army, the top boss of Chong Heng, as a disciple of the general, respecting the official in the army is the most basic quality.

Xie Jing squeezed out a smile on his face, pointed to the position beside him, and said with a smile: "General Xiaozhong, you're welcome, please take a seat." ”

Chong Heng is a veteran general of the Great Jin Dynasty, to put it mildly, even the Shanyin Xie family, who is now the mother of the Son of Heaven, is not qualified to compare with the Seed Family, and in the face of the eldest grandson of the Seed Family, even if it is Xie Jing, he is also polite.

Chong Heng didn't say anything polite to him, sat down directly, and said: "General, the Southwest Army has been moving frequently in the past few days, and it seems that there is an idea of advancing from the Han East, and the last general has already sent additional people to keep an eye on them, but the combat effectiveness shown by the Southwest Army over the years is not inferior to that of the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army of my Great Jin, and even more so, this matter cannot be taken lightly, I drafted a document and asked the general to take a look, if there is no problem, together with General Pei, send it to the capital." ”

As he spoke, Chong Heng took out a document from his sleeve and handed it to Xie Jing, Xie Jing took it and took a brief look, and found that what was written on it was some recent situation in the southwest, as well as ...... Ask the imperial court for help.

Over the years, the imperial court has transferred a lot of people from the left battalion of the forbidden army to the southwest to fill the Hanzhong army, so it is not realistic to want to ask the imperial court at this time, and Chong Heng does not want to ask the imperial court, but only asks the imperial court for things.

They want money, food, supplies, and weapons.

After Xie Jing took a brief look, he frowned slightly, and said: "General Xiaozhong, now the defenders of Xiangyang City are combined, the number of people is more than 150,000, and these thief troops in the southwest are only this number together, we are defending the city, and the number is equal, why do you still have to ask the court for things in this case, Your Majesty and the princes of the court, I am afraid that they will suspect that we are incompetent." ”

"General, it's not time to worry about this."

Chong Heng lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "My Great Jin has lost the entire southwest, and if Xiangyang is lost now, the western part of my Great Jin will be completely out of control. ”

Xie Jing frowned and thought for a while, then looked at the letter written by Chong Heng himself, and said: "General Xiaozhong, I can send this letter, but I can't just send it like this, the rhetoric should be changed and tactful." ”

Chong Heng frowned deeply, but didn't say much.

In any case, Xie Jing is his boss and cannot have any conflict with his boss.

When the two leaders of the Hanzhong Army were discussing how to revise the content of the recital, a scout of the Hanzhong Army stumbled in, half-knelt in front of the two people, swallowed his saliva, and said in a trembling voice: "General, general...... The Southwest Army, out of Shu! ”

Chong Heng immediately stood up, his expression changing slightly.

"What did you say?"

The man swallowed his saliva and said, "General Chong, the brothers in front just sent back the news, saying that the Southwest Army in the southwest has ...... I left Ankang and came towards Xiangyang......"

"It is estimated that at least 50,000 people ......"

Chong Heng slowly exhaled and shook his head a little bitterly: "It's still here that should come." ”

In the early years, Chong Heng was a general of Qianniu Wei in the capital for a period of time, and Li Xin had met many times, and the two were acquaintances, at this time Li Xin's army finally began to wave eastward, completely standing on the opposite side of the imperial court, and embarked on the road of rebellion.

He only thought for a moment, then looked back at Xie Jing, bowed his head slightly, and said, "General......"

"The war has started."

The eldest grandson of the breeder said in a deep voice: "These days, the last general has inspected the city wall of Xiangyang many times, and our materials in Xiangyang are 200,000 people to attack, and I am sure to defend it for a year and a half, but there is not much military money in Xiangyang City to defend the city, and I also ask the general to ask the court for help as soon as possible, so that the court can send things to Xiangyang." ”

Xie Jing had fully woken up at this time, and he also stood up from his chair and exhaled slowly.

"The small general doesn't have to worry too much, the southwest corner of the place, the background is insufficient, even a figure like Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, back then, it is difficult to make a difference, the bigger the noise in the southwest at this time, the more it will not be long."

Speaking of this, Xie Jing narrowed his eyes.

"It won't be long before the Marquis of Jing'an, who has been riding on the head of our generation for many years, will fall into the dust and embark on the same path as his father!"

Although there was nothing wrong with what Xie Jing said, Chong Heng still frowned deeply, and he sighed slowly.

"That Marquis of Jing'an, he has never done something that he is not sure of......"
