Chapter 115: Seven Men Discuss the World at the Same Time (17)
Zhang Gon was originally from a famous family, his grandfather Zhang Yi was the Taishou of Liaodong, and his father Zhang Zhuo was the Taishou of Changli, a person like him naturally entered the officialdom at a young age, because it was the Murong family that ruled most of the entire northern region at that time, and after the Jin Kingdom moved south, there were frequent infighting, and there was no momentum to recover the homeland, which was really disappointing, and Murong Jun, who was in charge at that time, was also a generation of heroes, so Zhang Gon, who was dissatisfied at that time, did not have any psychological pressure to work for Murong Jun.
At that time, it was under Zhang Gon's strong recommendation that Murong Jun moved the capital from Jicheng to Yecheng, and at the same time, Zhang Gon assisted Murong Jun to quell the rebel forces in various places, recover other powerful factions within the Murong family, and effectively integrated the upper and lower levels.
At this time, Wang Meng had just gained Fu Jian's trust, but the Qin Empire only had a corner of Guanzhong at this time, and there was still the Zhang family in the northwest to sit in Liangzhou, threatening the flank of the Qin State, and the Qin State had no spare strength to expand at all, so it had to guard the Hangu Pass and Tongguan, and let the Great Yan Kingdom flourish.
And the monarch Murong Junzi is burly, well-read books, proficient in Wen Taowu and proficient, and assisted by virtuous ministers such as Zhang Gon, Murong Ke, and Murong Chui, for a time there was a great tendency to dominate the world, especially the Xianbei people at this time, they have changed the brutality of entering the early years of the Central Plains, and began to adopt a certain policy of softness towards the Han people in the Central Plains, such as letting the disciples of the family enter the imperial court as officials, so that they can enjoy certain privileges, and at the same time, the Han people will no longer be tortured and killed casually, and let them resume production. Although the original intention was to collect taxes, it did greatly alleviate social conflicts.
In fact, sometimes, people are very cheap, if you take the initiative to please him, he will generally not treat you, but if you torture him fiercely first, repair him and bully him, and then give him some benefits in the end, he will be grateful.
At that time, many Han people in the Central Plains were like this, since the orthodoxy of the Jin Dynasty did not want to forge ahead, they didn't care about us at all, and although the court of this Xianbei person didn't look good, at least he still did some personnel, if it really didn't work, it was not impossible to follow them.
Finally, when the Great Yan Kingdom developed to a peak, it was bound to raise a huge question, that is, what to do next, fortunately, Murong Jun and Zhang Gon had a great consensus on this point, that is, to take advantage of the present, while the Jin State was still in civil strife, while they had not yet integrated a sufficiently prestigious leader, while they had not yet retrained a powerful army, mobilized all their forces in one fell swoop, destroyed the Jin State, took the anointed land of Jiangnan, and then used the wealth of Jiangnan to train the army, Finally unify the world in one fell swoop.
The world only knows that in the Battle of Weishui, Great Qin once had a million-strong army going south, but they didn't know that Murong Jun and Zhang Gon had made a more ambitious plan.
In the year when Zhang Gon was twenty years old, the emperor Murong Jun of the Great Yan State ordered that the state and counties across the country should check the household registration, leaving only one ding per household, and all of them were conscripted as soldiers, and they planned to gather 1.5 million troops to go south to destroy the Jin.
Of course, whether it is the Qin State or the Jin State, there are many people in China who insist that this is bluffing, because throughout the ages, no country has ever been able to mobilize an army of so many people, not to mention, even if it can be mobilized, where will the grain and grass come from, and what to do with the organization of logistics, you must know that it is difficult to complete these basic tasks with only one male left in each family.
However, this time, unlike many times, the second-rate talents of various countries firmly believe that all this is impossible, so they are still drunk and drunk as usual, and they look completely indifferent, and some of them are bold enough to openly say that 1.5 million people will come if they have the ability, and they will not return.
It's just that Xie An and Wang Meng, who were still very young at this time, were worried, they knew that Zhang Gon was definitely not a messy person, and they knew Zhang Gon's purpose very well.
That's right, if you really mobilize 1.5 million troops, grain and grass logistics are of course the problem, but the problem is that if you mobilize desperately, this number can be reached, if you don't hesitate to empty the treasury of the Great Yan Kingdom, the food and salary for short-term operations can also be gathered, not to mention, the logistics requirements of the Xianbei Iron Cavalry are much lower than those of the infantry, at least the first phase of the operation, it can be fully supported.
The problem is here, at this time, the Great Yan Kingdom is the most powerful, while the other countries are relatively weak, even if it is only the first phase of the battle, the strength and quality of the Great Yan Kingdom also have an overwhelming advantage, and Murong Jun himself is also good at fighting, and there are such outstanding advisers as Zhang Gon, the victory rate is very large, not to mention, they also want to attack the weakest Jin State in the triangle relationship first.
At this time, even if the young Fu Jian and Wang Meng had the foresight to attack the Yan State from the flank to save the Jin State, the problem was that the Liangzhou side could also send troops to raid their own nest.
In other words, it's like gambling in a casino, Zhang Gon's plan is equivalent to saying that the richest gambler makes a huge gamble so much that he can't afford to lose it himself, but the cost of the entry is high enough to put other gamblers in a dilemma.
If you follow, then you can't afford to lose, and you have a high probability of losing, if you don't follow, although the probability of losing is smaller than that of following, but it still accounts for the majority.
If it is difficult to support the expansion of the army of the Great Yan State, the Great Qin and the Jin State will be even more unable to support such a general mobilization, but if they are not mobilized, they will not be able to fight, what can be done.
At that time, Xie An and Wang Meng racked their brains, and they couldn't think of any good way, because Zhang Gon's hand was to bet all his net worth on his own first, and force you to express his position, this is a naked conspiracy, everything is on the surface, but you have no choice but to jump into the fire pit, which cannot be resolved at all.
Yang Mou is more than a conspiracy, Gao Ming is here, conspiracy is essentially deception and misleading, you can see through it is worthless, but Yang Mou is often incomprehensible.
However, there is often no solution, in fact, there is still a solution, and what can be solved is God.
