PS: The second chapter is in the evening

Shangdang is a plateau lying in the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom, where the hills are horizontal and the forests are luxuriant, which is the only way to the old and new Jiang.

"I heard that Yang Zhuang is a virtuous doctor, what is this person?" When passing through the party town, Zhao Wuxian summoned Cheng Xuan, who was in charge of the affairs of the Jin Kingdom, and asked him questions.

Cheng leaned his waist and bent slightly: "The minister doesn't know." ”

Zhao Wuxian frowned: "I saw that you did a good job in Yecheng, so I promoted you to a doctor, responsible for collecting information on the secretaries and doctors within the Jin Kingdom, why can't you say clearly?" ”

Cheng said: "Because the person of Yang Zhuang is constantly changing. At the age of fifteen, when he first became a servant, he was honest and did not hide his mistakes; At the age of twenty, he is loving and righteous; At the age of thirty, he served as a lieutenant in the Jin Kingdom, fighting bravely and fond of benevolence; At the age of forty, he began to serve as a border city guard, and the forces that were originally estranged from the Jin State reconnected with the Jin Dynasty. Now five years have passed, and what has become of the sheep breeding, the minister has not seen his own person, and he does not dare to speculate. I only heard that he was stationed in Shangdang, and he restrained the soldiers to do nothing against the local Qiu, knowing that the main force of Yao was defeated, and the lord's vanguard soldiers were in Shangdang, he did not surrender with his hands, but claimed that he came here because of the order of the Marquis of Jin, as long as there is no edict from Xinjiang for a day, he will defend the land for the country for a day......"

Zhao Wuxian slapped his palm and smiled: "I see, Yang Zhu is really a virtuous doctor, every time he changes, he can be better, not only capable, but also loyal to the country, such a person, if he is lost in the civil war of Zhuqing, it is the loss of the Jin State......"

But what he thought in his heart was that if the sheep were loyal to the country and the people, it was better to say, if he was loyal to the king, this person should not stay. Now this person is stubbornly defending the party, resolutely refusing to surrender, and the thieves and 8,000 soldiers have attacked for several days without any result.

The next day, after the heads of the three families of Zhao, Wei and Han met again to discuss, Wei Ju strongly suggested that it would not be too late to uproot the city and then advance westward.

"Shangdang City is impartial, just guarding the road to the west, if you don't seize this place, it will be difficult for the army and baggage to move forward."

Zhao Wuxian disagreed, there are sheep in the party, it is simply a bone that is difficult to gnaw, and there is no meat on it, and it has to be returned to Han Hu after snatching it, why waste time here.

"There are also trails around Shangdang, which can allow the army to advance in batches, much faster than the Dun army here."

Wei Ju snorted: "Xinjiang is already in our pocket, why should Zitai be in a hurry?" ”

"Zhibo is cunning, I'm afraid that the night will be long and dreamy, I can't wait to go over to support Uncle Wei immediately, Ziteng is a parent, so I'm not worried at all?"

The two began to grind back and forth, and Han Hu, who had a neutral attitude, was a little hesitant, after all, Shangdang was a big town in his family, and he felt uneasy if he didn't take it back in his hand.

Speaking of the back, Zhao Wuxian was also a little impatient, he got up and said bluntly: "If the two of you are reluctant to join the party, you can stay here to attack, I will take the main force of the Zhao family to the capital, how about it?" ”

Wei Ju suddenly jumped up like a tanuki whose tail had been stepped on: "The three armies said that they advance and retreat together, how can there be a reason for each to do its own thing, since Zitai wants to go west, then I will naturally follow." ”

They all looked at Han Hu, but saw Han Hu smile slightly: "Zitai Ziteng can go to Xinjiang with confidence, just leave the siege equipment, prisoners, and labor, and hand over the party to my Han clan." ”

Zhao Wuxian was slightly stunned, and then knew in his heart that although Han Hu and Wei Ju had a faint intention of cooperating, his ambition was not as big as Wei's, and he was not greedy.

As Zhao Wuxian thought, Han Hu knew very well that with the defeat of the Zhi clan and even the loss of Xinjiang, the time for the three families to divide the inheritance of the Jin Kingdom was coming. The strength of the Zhao clan is there, and it takes all the east of Taihang and Jinyang, so it naturally accounts for the majority, and the Wei clan is also tirelessly seeking more plates, so he Han naturally can't be unprepared.

First of all, to recover the old territory, Zhao Wuxian promised to take Pingyang for him, and when he recovered Shangdang, Han Hu planned to take advantage of Zhao Wei to break in Jiangdu, and first go south to attack Yucheng.

Because of the words that the advisor Duan Gui said to him a few days ago, Han Hu had a clear plan for the future of his family!

……

After Wei Ju confided the news that the Wei clan had taken matters into Xinjiang, and returned to his camp, Duan Gui asserted that it would not be long before the three families would divide up the territories of Zhi, Fan, and Bank of China.

"In addition to recovering the old territory, the sovereign must also get the land beyond the river!"

Han Hu was puzzled at the time: "Why don't you go to fight Hedong with the Wei family, don't ask the Zhao family for the territory of Zhi, Fan, and Zhongxing, but want to go outside the river?" ”

Duan Gui was shocked, and said again and again: "No, the Zhi clan is about to be defeated when he sees it, and the Jin State will enter the Sanqing pattern, the Zhao clan is the strongest, followed by Wei, and Han is the third." Xinjiang's side is the center of gravity of Zhao Wei's wrestling, and the Han family's strength is not good, and forcibly mixing it will not make anything, but will intensify the relationship with Wei. And Hanoi and Hebei are even more unclaimable, where it has become the forbidden territory of the Zhao family, not to mention that the Taihang Mountain Pass has been controlled by the Zhao family, and the lord can only find another direction of development, as for the territory west of the Taihang Mountain, as for the territory west of the Taihang Mountain, if you can get the best, you can't get it, and you can't force it, because the three families divide the land, it must be occupied first as the criterion, those places are beyond the reach of the Han whip, and the only place where the Jin Kingdom is still blank is outside the river. ”

Han Hu was a little unhappy: "Except for the city outside the river, almost all of them are barren, and Yiluo's Rong is full of them, what's the use of me coming?" ”

"Otherwise, the places outside the river of Yu and Yin give people the impression of desolation, and Zhao Wei is not interested in fighting for them. But in fact, as the poem says, the crane sings in Jiugao and hears in the sky. Fish lie in Nagisa, or potential abyss. The Garden of Joy. There is a sandalwood tree, and the dimension under it is ...... The city was rich, and the Duke relied on it back then, and once became the enemy of the Jin Kingdom. The minister has been there, only to see the field outside the city is ten miles wide, the original Xi is fertile, the fish and reeds are rich, and the men and women are weaving. As long as the land outside the river is slightly developed, there can also be 10,000 acres of fertile land, more than 100,000 households, and there are iron mines in Yiyang, north of Luoshui! The Zhao clan relied on the iron mountain of the Lu State to make many sharp weapons, and for those who have a family and a country, iron is no less useful than copper and tin, which is the benefit of taking the land beyond the river. ”

Han Hu no longer had disdain for Hewai, but sat up straight and let Duan Gui continue.

"What's more, Your Majesty has heard that a place the size of a mile can affect the decision to gain or lose a thousand miles of land because the terrain is favorable; The crowd of 10,000 people was able to break through the three armies because of surprise. Outside the river, Yiyang and other places carry the big river inward, look at each other across Yiluo from the yin land outside, go west to carry the letter and Dai Huashan, and go to the east to wrap the Zhou room and face Zheng Guo, the so-called good is the shape of the victory, according to the elbow and armpit of the Guan River, the silence of the Quartet is also, the first to win is strong, and the last to lose. In the past, the Han family didn't have a chance, but this time they can't let it go! ”

"Now Zheng Guo has taken advantage of the Jin civil war to seize Yiluo and the Yin Land, and has also carved up the Barbarian Kingdom with Ye Gong of Chu State. In the future, if there was a dispute between Jin and Zheng, the Han clan could recapture these territories from the rear. Then wait for the time to move, whether it is against Qin, Zhou, Zheng, or even Chu, you can attack from three sides and expand your territory! In this way, he can stay away from the edge of the Zhao family, jump out of the internal strife of the Jin Kingdom, and develop and grow independently, this is the future that the minister envisions for the Han family! ”

Han Hu agreed with Duan Gui's development strategy of "avoiding the edge of the Zhao family", and after four years of civil war, he understood one thing, that is, nothing else matters, and it is the royal choice to develop and expand himself first.

So he sat and watched Zhao Wei and the others go west to Xinjiang, fight for Hedong to break the bloodstream, and let himself go to fight another world.

The next day, Han Hu stood on the high ground outside Shangdang City and watched Zhao Wei's army march away in two ways. Xinjiang will definitely be a battle between the open and the dark, although the Wei clan controls the monarch, the capital and most of the east of the river, but because the strength is not as good as the Zhao clan, it will definitely be suppressed, and he can't sit idly by.

"The enemy is not finished, I will wait for Mr. Gap, it would be nice if there were three strategies to win......" The cold wind blew, lifting the young gentleman's long black hair, he tightened the fur on his body, and couldn't help but let out a sigh, he was a person who didn't like to fight, and he had to force it for the sake of the clan.

Under the pattern of one strong and two weak, in order to prevent the Zhao clan from swallowing the entire Jin Kingdom, Han Wei became a vassal, and when the Wei clan could not hold on, Han Hu would definitely pull them. Fortunately, it was already the middle of winter at this time, and the people of the Jin State had been withering for a long time, and there was also news that the foreign enemies Qin, Chu, and Zheng had begun to send envoys to each other frequently, and this traditional anti-Jin alliance might be reunited, and no one would be dizzy to restart the war at this time. Everyone needs to be patient and restrained to avoid a new civil war, both struggle and cooperation, this is the best policy of the Han family and the Zhao and Wei families in the struggle between the court and the court...... (To be continued.) )
