Since Xie Tao is still young, doesn't know martial arts, and has never been to the Northland, why force him to escort the news?
It is said that there is no one you can trust, didn't you also find a few guards with high martial arts skills?
It's just to send a message, let those guards go, isn't it the same?

Xie Tao has gone, can I help you?
When he recovered from his confusion, Xie An felt very regretful, and wanted to call Xie Tao back, but he couldn't do so.

Repeated tossing, I'm afraid it will attract Wang Gong's attention.

You can't ruin the court affairs because of your personal love for your children, so you have to endure it.

Fortunately, beyond Xie An's expectation, on the way back, the Jin army did not encounter many obstacles. The towns along the way saw the Jin army's banner and surrendered one after another. The speed and consistency of their actions made the general Wang Mi They were all amazed.

As a result, Xie Tao and his group came out from the border of Yangzhou controlled by the Great Jin. Before they had gone far, they met the Jin army head-on and sent fresh news to Wang Mi.

This has to be said to be God's help.

It seems that God is still on the side of Xie's family. Although Wang Mi doesn't know this yet, Xie An already knows it.

Do not worry!
Standing on the side of Xie's family is equivalent to standing on Wang Mi's side, Mr. Xie has already helped Wang Mi make such a judgment.

"Grand Xie asked us to return to Jiankang immediately, hurry up!"

But at this time, only team leader Zeng Jing was beside Wang Mi, and the brothers from Jingkou were still resting in their respective camps.

It was also rare that this letter was delivered late at night, so that it could escape their sight and be delivered directly to Wang Mi.

Of course he would not leave his brothers and run away on his own, nor would he deliberately conceal it, but, obviously, if the brothers knew about this, there would be another dispute.

On this side, he had just decided to march slowly, and slowly walked towards Jiankang, watching the situation at the court.

In addition, one of his letters, sent to the court and Wang Gong's hands, will definitely cause an uproar in the court.

According to Wang Mi's initial plan, after passing Xuzhou City and arriving in Yangzhou, the territory controlled by the Jin army, the army will temporarily rest and stop completely.

This was a bit more backward than what Xie An had planned for him. Wang Shilang was a decent person, although his temporary rest was also to declare his authority to the court.

However, he didn't intend to make a fuss in Jingkou, the north gate of Jiankang City, which was almost approaching Jiankang City.

Right, Yangzhou is still better, although it seems that Yangzhou also has a little bad feng shui.

Do you still remember that Director Wang's cousin, Wang Dun, was the governor of somewhere in the first place?

Isn't it Yangzhou?

It can be seen that once this place is entrenched, it will be more or less evil.

And now, Wang Mi leads an army of tens of thousands, and is about to arrive in Yangzhou...

There is no doubt that there are indeed tens of thousands of troops. Although part of the Jin army has been lost, aren't there still those Di Qin prisoners?
Putting it together, it's almost there.

Doesn't this also mean provocation?
It can't be blamed for Wang Mi's unfeelingness, it's because of him, Wang Gong, who is not a man before him. Isn't he putting pressure on Wang Mi by persecuting the Beifu soldiers like this?

He didn't even feel that he was not authentic, so why should Wang Mi feel embarrassed?
However, Xie An's letter broke his plan. Xie An actually asked Wang Mi to stop at Jingkou directly and point his sword at the court!
This……

Are you going to tear your skin apart in advance?
No!
Wang Shilang has not yet accomplished his great cause, and more northern cities are still waiting for him to take down.

At this critical moment, it is always better to have a stable court than nothing. Even if the court is undercurrents and the inside is not peaceful, even if he is just an empty shell, it is fine.

The Northern Expedition is about to start, and a grand territory is about to be formed. At such a good time, can everyone in the Jin Dynasty not hold back Wang Shilang?
Wang Shilang's requirements are very low, as long as he is allowed to continue fighting, it doesn't matter if he is not promoted.Anyway, these benefits will be there in the future.

There will even be more, the current Wang Mi doesn't look down on such petty profits at all.

However, the imperial court just didn't give him this face.

Not only Wang Gong wanted to make troubles, but even Xie An wanted to make troubles.

However, if the situation in Jiankang is really so critical, Wang Mi's plan is indeed inappropriate.

Although, as long as the army stagnates at Jingkou, it is tantamount to tearing face off with Jiankang's court, and even Wang Mi has to start preparing for the next desperate battle.

However, in Yangzhou, it is definitely not suitable.

So far, the initiative is still in Wang Mi's hands, and the Great Jin court is basically out of control of the Beifu soldiers.

There are still about 1 Beifu soldiers entrenched in Jingkou, but that force cannot be compared with the army controlled by Wang Mi at all.

The only thing that can be contended with may be firearms and ammunition. Jiankang City has never had any disputes, and the Beifu soldiers staying at Jingkou are also very stable.

Compared with Wang Mi's army, which was almost exhausted after the bitter battle, the ammunition stock at Jingkou can be said to be very sufficient.

If he could exchange all the ammunition stored there into his own hands, Wang Mi would be almost invincible and would not be afraid of anything.

Of course, this is just his extravagant wish, which is impossible to realize.

He even had to be on guard against Liu Laozhi's unreliable elder brother. If he saw that the situation was wrong and came back from Jingkou, he would stay in Yangzhou, wouldn't he be caught without a fight?

Therefore, in this way, it is more appropriate to go to Jingkou to rest first.

Judging from the current situation, although the imperial court, that is, Wang Gong, is on guard against Wang Mi in name, they don't know what Wang Mi's real thoughts are.

As for Wang Mi, apart from sending a letter to the imperial court pleading for mercy, he didn't do much.

In this way, the army stopped and went, and stopped and walked. As far as the court is concerned, as long as the Beifu army led by Wang Mi does not completely stop and does not move for a few days, it will not be able to figure out what Wang Mi wants. what to do.

Go straight to Huanglong?

Or challenge Jiankang City at Jingkou?
In fact, the Jiankang court seems to be very confused, and provoking Wang Mi at this time is actually setting fire to him!

Could it be that they have forgotten where Wang Mi is now?

He is in the north!

From Yecheng, to Xuzhou, and soon to Yangzhou.

And from Yangzhou, it is quite easy to send troops to the south, almost within a snap of your fingers.

If Wang Mi really has the so-called disobedience, he doesn't have to think about resting or disbanding on the spot.

As long as the Beifu army is firmly in hand, are you afraid that you won't be able to defeat the old, weak, sick and disabled in Jiankang City?

As a result, Jiankang City was already in a precarious situation, but they still didn't realize the danger of the situation, and wanted to force Wang Mi to submit.

That is to say, Wang Mi still wanted to continue the Northern Expedition, so he was too lazy to waste the strength of the Beifu. Otherwise, someone else would have already fought against the imperial court!

"Wang Shilang, Mr. Xie has made such a request, so what should we do?"

"Stop here, or continue south?"

Zeng Jing was very embarrassed, but what he said was completely nonsense. In this situation, even if they wanted to occupy the north, they would not be able to!
Those towns that are invincible will change their minds once they see that the situation of the Jin army is unstable. At that time, Wang Mi and the others will be trapped here and will not move forward or backward. Isn't it waiting to be eaten alive by several large armies?
"Going south is for sure. We can plan for the future only if we pass through Xuzhou." Wang Mi's voice was heavy, which also made Zeng Jing, who had always trusted him very much, feel dignified.

"However, Xie Gong is in a hurry now, we can only act quickly, and we can't delay any longer."

"However, let's forget about tonight. The soldiers have already rested, and the queue is also very relaxed. If there is anything to do, let's wait until tomorrow morning!"

Finally, under Zeng Jing's worried eyes, Wang Mi made such a decision.If possible, if it was daytime, he would of course want to march quickly and arrive in Xuzhou to see the situation in Xuzhou and decide the outcome.

It's a pity that it's late at night now, and it's not so easy for the soldiers to adjust to their slack state.

Gathering the army rashly will not advance the schedule, it will only cause the army to fall into chaos, and if one fails, the enemy will take advantage of it.

This is where?

It's just outside Xuzhou City, the proper northern land!

This is not the territory of the Great Jin. Although the Jin army successfully passed the first few checkpoints, even Wang Mi, who has always been conceited, has to admit that it is not because they are powerful, but because luck is on their side. here.

Otherwise, once several cities unite, even if the Jin army cannot be completely wiped out, at least it will hurt the Jin army.

That's no joke!
But now, in Xuzhou City, there is a more powerful enemy, it is Fu Fei!
Facing Fu Fei, Wang Mi still had some scruples in his heart. Although Li Dalian had patted his chest and boasted that he understood Fu Fei's thoughts, Fu Fei would not confront the Jin army head-on.

However, for this kind of thing, no one can say for sure if he didn't see Fu Fei before the critical juncture and finalize his true thoughts.

As a responsible general, Wang Mi must not pull tens of thousands of troops directly to Xuzhou City and send them into the tiger's mouth.

It must be taken slowly.

However, we must also see that the situation on Fu Fei's side is also changing rapidly. If he is really an ambitious general as Li Dalian boasted, then seeing the weakness of the Jin army may not necessarily change his mind.

Therefore, the primary task of the Jin army now is to seek stability. It must stabilize the situation, at least to deceive Fu Fei who is entrenched in Xuzhou City.

Zeng Jing left with his thoughts on his mind, but Xie Tao was still in shock until now, Wang Mi kept him by his side and took care of him personally.

This child, who traveled a long distance, did not know how he broke into this place. He must have experienced many difficulties during the journey.

He was still so young, not long ago, when Wang Mi saw him in Xie's mansion, he was still very arrogant, thinking that he was the most reliable little follower by Xie An's side, his tail was almost up to the sky up.

But seeing him today, Xie Tao is no longer that proud young man.

The whole person was full of fear and anxiety, his eyes were always full of tears, and he regarded Wang Mi as the backbone.

If there were no important tasks on his body, Wang Mi doubted that he would throw himself into his arms, crying bitterly.

"Xie Tao, sit down quickly, do you know how to drink?"

"Have a drink to warm yourself up."

It is late autumn now, the weather here in Xuzhou is not as cold as Jiankang, and Xie Tao has been with Xie An all the year round, let alone the Northland, even Jiankang City has never stepped out .

Thinking about it now, I don't know how the situation in Jiankang is going, is it completely messed up, or why would Xie An send out his favorite little follower?

However, judging from Xie Tao's various performances after entering the account, it should not be so urgent, otherwise, Xie Tao would not have given Wang Mi a chance to speak.

It was as if beans were poured out of a bamboo tube a long time ago, and all of them were revealed!

When he came to the tent, he just handed Xie An's letter to him, but he didn't worry about it. This shows that the situation in Jiankang is still stable.

Xie Tao hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up the wine bowl.

The ancients drank alcohol relatively early. Xie Tao is already 13 years old, and he is already old enough to drink alcohol. However, in Jiankang, Xie An raised him like his own grandson and always disciplined him very strictly.

You can drink, but not too much.

Therefore, the big bowl provided by Wang Mi is a bit...

It's too rough.

He muttered a bit in his throat, and finally mustered up the courage to pick up the wine bowl.

Good job!
Sure enough, experience is different!
Wang Mi praised secretly, in fact, he also knew that Xie Tao was young, and the wine was too much for him.

However, he still fell down, just to see if Xie Tao has improved.

Now it seems that this trip, he is on the right track!
Grow up and become a man of courage!

The average life expectancy of the ancients was relatively low. For these twelve or thirteen-year-old boys, in modern society, they have just graduated from elementary school, and they are still the focus of attention of several members of the family. I am afraid that there will be a little mistake.

However, in ancient times, twelve or thirteen-year-olds were already able to do things. Even in the Southern Dynasties, due to frequent wars and instability in the territory, many eleven- and twelve-year-old children were sent to guard places by the emperor.

correct!

It's about Liu Yu's children.

In history, because Liu Yu had a child late, of course, he has no son yet, and he became emperor after fifty years, so that his descendants were very young after his fall.

However, the territory that I have conquered must not be left unattended. Who will let it go?
Handing over to those trustworthy generals is naturally a good choice, but we must also see that due to the constant wars at this stage, many famous generals who originally belonged to the late Jin era also withered. Many of the generals fell before Liu Yu became successful.

Therefore, Liu Yu, who had nothing to do and no one to use, had to entrust his young sons to various places to guard them.

The effect, of course, is not very good.

Not only is it not very good, but even the effect is very poor, and it has the opposite effect.
