I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 187 The Gradually Delicate Situation

Facing such a predicament for the Zhao family, it is enough for the rest of the family to look on coldly.

The "Xintian" in autumn did not change much because of Zhao's accident. Most of the nobles had already left and returned to their fiefs to take care of the autumn harvest and formulate various matters in winter.

Because the nobles who should leave have all left, the capital of a country has become deserted again, and it will take until winter for the nobles to gather together in "Xintian".

"Is the Zhao family different this time?" Zhiyao felt as if she had overlooked something.

Zhongshan is not weak, but the problem is how Zhao Yang was trapped, and the reaction of the successor Zhao is indeed a bit bigger.

Of course, the head of the family was besieged by the enemy, and it was normal for the Zhao family to act more aggressively. What was unusual was that Zhao Huo only mentioned launching the national war once, and the Zhao family remained completely silent at the court level afterwards.

From Zhiyao's point of view, it was very likely that Mrs. Zhao stopped immediately after trying it out, giving the impression that she was covering up something.

"Where is the difference?" Zhishen was reading a book, fascinated by it, and asked casually.

Zhiyao said: "Three 'divisions' back to three 'divisions', and another 'army' is still gathering."

Zhishen's eyes were still on the book, and he said casually: "The Zhao family is from the Qing family. It is normal for the head of the family to use the second 'army' to rescue him when he is trapped."

Yes, it looks quite normal.

However, Zhao's mobilization of the two legions seems to be quite a lot. Anyway, it is far more than the troops that some vassal states can dispatch. The problem is that Zhao's speed of gathering troops is a bit slow.

With the premise that Zhao Yang and two "divisions" are at stake, not only is the army's assembly speed slow, but the recruitment of another "army" and three "divisions" seems a bit small?

Let's put it this way!If Zhishen is trapped, do you believe that Zhiyao can assemble an "army" and go to the battlefield within a month?In the future, at least two more "armies" will be recruited, or even more troops, and then they will run around to seek the support of various families. Even if the enthusiasm of each family is very low, they will not give up asking for help easily.

Zhiyao said: "If my family is..., cough cough!", originally she wanted to assume that Zhishen was not well, and shut her mouth in time.

Zhishen's gaze was not on the page, but he blinked his eyes at Zhiyao.

"My family is often recruited into the Third 'Army'. If it is critical, the Fifth 'Army' can be used." Zhiyao told the facts that Zhishen may not know.

Based on the military establishment of the Jin State, five full-staffed regiments are 18 soldiers.

Zhishi can really mobilize five full-staffed legions to the limit, but the production in that year must not be considered, and the consumption of inventory will also make Zhishi lose at least five years of reserves.

In addition, if five legions can be assembled, the number of auxiliary soldiers will inevitably drop sharply.

Generally speaking, after doing that, not only some developments will stagnate, but it will also have a very large impact on the development in the next few years.

Why is that?It is not a question of how many people are recruited at one time, but actually the consumption of resources after the recruitment has affected the resource requirements for the subsequent start-up project.

To put it bluntly, if you want to start the project, you need materials to support it.But now a family is not finished if the people of the clan can eat enough, and is also responsible for some issues such as food and clothing for Li Shu.

Zhishen was a little dumbfounded, and asked in a daze, "There are five armies?"

To be honest, Zhiyao herself was quite surprised.

This is the result of the Zhi clan's annexation of the Zhonghang clan. It would be the limit for the previous Zhi clan to assemble two "armies".

After the Zhi family assembled five legions, it would definitely be like the Zhao family who lacked grass-roots officers. The phenomenon of two legions lacking grass-roots officers does not exist in the Zhi family.

The lack of officers in the two legions?Zhishi is not that miserable.

Zhiyao has been busy for so many years, but she can still guarantee to provide the grassroots officers of the two legions. What young people lack is experience, not the knowledge of leading troops.

So, if the Zhi family recruits five legions, there will be no shortage of officers in the four "armies", and it will be a bit difficult to supply the grassroots officers of the remaining "army".

Zhiyao was very depressed after learning about those situations, and couldn't figure out how such a powerful Zhishi was played to death by Zhao Wuxie.

"Yaoli 'Cui', is it possible for Rangju to be in charge?" Zhishen was simply looking for something to say.

In addition to Qi's own forces fighting in chaos, there is also Lu's tossing.Given the current situation, it is best for the Zhi family not to make any major moves, so as not to irritate all parties in the Qi country too much.

When is the time to do it?Zhiyao is very confident in Sima Rangju's strategic vision, what is not confident is what position Sima Rangju will stand on.

Sima Rangju has already stated that he will serve Zhishi, and he will not break his promise if there is no major accident.

Zhiyao knows that people nowadays will not easily go back on their word as long as they open their mouths. It is just a matter of handing over the private army of the Zhi family in "Cui" to Sima Rangju for management. This behavior shows trust and gives Sima Rangju more loyalty. .

"As far as my family is concerned, if you can serve wholeheartedly, you can form an 'army'." Zhiyao said.

Zhishen nodded and said, "So, don't worry too much about attacking Qi, and do whatever you want."

Talent is rare.

One person can be compared to the value of a legion, even if Zhishi's plan in Qi State fails this time, it is a good thing to get Sima Rangju's allegiance.

On this point, Zhishen can tell the difference.

After this summer, Zhishen's health has improved a bit. Seeing that it is autumn again, he caught wind and cold again a few days ago.

Zhiyao returned to "Xintian" this time, in addition to paying close attention to Zhao's movements nearby, the busiest thing when she returned home was making recipes for Zhishen.

Get a cold every now and then?It shows that the body is in a weak state, which is called "sub-health" in modern terminology. It can still be improved with eating habits, and more exercise.

"My lord." Zhiyao heard Zhishen cough again, stood up and continued: "Come with the child."

Zhishen's face was bitter.

How many days has this son been back?I have to drag my dad to exercise every day, which is simply too terrible for a dad who doesn't want to move.

Yu Rang got Zhiyao's eyes to indicate, thinking about riding a horse today, and left quickly to make preparations in advance.

The two fathers and sons don't just leave after exercising, they need to change into clothes suitable for exercising.

Three years ago, Zhiyao carried out a clothing reform within Zhishi. How much cloth was saved is one thing, and the most important thing is to wear it suitable for sports.

When they came to the school grounds, the horses Zhishen and Zhiyao used to ride had already been prepared.

You don't need to pay special attention, you can see Takahashi's saddle and stirrups at a glance, and horseshoes are also installed in invisible places.

Of course, it is another new gadget made by Zhiyao, but the stirrup has existed long ago, but it has not been popularized; what about the saddle?Basically, just put a layer of cushions on it and it’s done. The Takahashi saddle is made by Zhiyao; as for the horseshoe, it is completely black technology level.

Isn't Zhiyao afraid of leaking secrets when she makes these things?Look at where it is, and it can still leak secrets when used in the core area of ​​the home. What kind of air leakage should Zhishi look like.

Riding a horse, looking at the scenery, and going around in circles is considered exercise for people like Zhishen and Zhiyao.

Such as running, lifting stone locks, etc., that is called exercise.

Zhiyao feels that Zhishen's body is weak, and it is more appropriate to use a gradual approach, including a similar arrangement for diet.

Is horse riding a sport?That's for sure.Riding a horse, the body needs to swing with the horse's hooves. Riding a horse with a stiff appearance is simply torturing yourself.

Horseback riding is one thing, and riding on a horse is another thing. Even if you have a high bridge saddle and stirrups, the inner thighs will still be worn down after a long time of riding. Riding day and night and for a long time, the inner thighs will be broken. The pain of being stuck to the cloth again.

For a period of time, Zhiyao urged Zhishen to exercise in different ways every day, and she must pay attention to internal and external movements.

Regarding the Zhongshan country, Zhiyao later found out that Qiu You and Xian Yu were also involved.

Qiu You and Xian Yu are both alien forces.They are not pure nomadic way of life, Qiu You's level of civilization is lower, while Xianyu's is more like Zhuxia, and Xianyu's strength is stronger.

The Zhongshan Kingdom failed in the upright battle with the Zhao clan, Zhao Yang refused to seek surrender, and only later did Qiu You and Xian Yu intervene.

The direct result of the alliance of the three alien forces was to trap Zhao Yang in the mountains, and Zhiyao heard from some sources that Lou Fan and Dai Guo were about to participate.

Floor trouble?There is no one of the most powerful alien forces in the north of Jin.If they stand on the side of Zhongshan country and have trouble with Zhao, the movement will not be much smaller.

On behalf of the country?Isn't the Zhao family looking for a marriage with them?Dai Guo's intervention should be on Zhao's side, but because Lou Fan, Qiu You, Xianyu and Zhongshan Kingdom formed an alliance, Dai Guo would definitely pay a high price for getting involved.This is determined by geopolitical factors.

An autumn will be over soon.

The Zhi family Qiguo is still in the waiting stage, and it is estimated that it will sit and watch the situation for another two or three years, or even longer.

The Wei family, the Hu family, and the Han family will withdraw their troops when winter approaches, and they will not shout about whether there is any gain or loss.

How is Zhao's situation on the battlefield in Zhongshan?According to Zhiyao's knowledge, Zhao Huo led three "divisions" to the rescue, and then was blocked from the mountains. After two or three months of fighting, he couldn't get in.

After everyone saw Zhao's behavior, they were more or less confused. They were surprised whether the Zhao family had become weaker or the foreign race had become stronger.

In the next year, the Zhao family will go northward with a single pull. Recently, the Zhao family has been in frequent contact with various families, and what they do is to make various profit concessions.

Of course, Zhao did this to obtain a stable rear, and on the other hand, it also made everyone aware of Zhao's weakness.

Recently, Wei Lu has been very active, contacting Zhishen and Hu You repeatedly, talking about how each family should make corresponding preparations once the alien race in the north becomes powerful.

Did Wei Lu mention that once Zhao Yang got sick, or did he target the Zhao family?That doesn't need to be mentioned at all!
