Chapter 1124 Syracuse Calls for Soldiers (1)
When Qin Yu saw Yan Chen, he cupped his hands.

Yan Chen also bowed his hands to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu waited for Yan Chen to take a seat, looked at him and asked, "Since Uncle Xiao Guo also got the news of the army raising on the border of the Northern Qi Dynasty, what do you think?"

Yan Chen looked at Qin Yu, and said calmly, "Although I am the uncle of the Northern Qi Xiaoguo, it does not represent the Yu family, let alone the Northern Qi royal family, nor does it represent that the prince Qi Yan is light."

"Oh?" Qin Yu looked at him, "According to your words, are you not talking about this matter?"

Yan Chen nodded, "I know that the crown prince and Lord Hou will look for me after hearing news of the movement in the Northern Qi military camp, so I came here uninvited. I came here to tell the crown prince that I don't plan to return to Northern Qi anytime soon. "

Qin Yu looked at him, "You mean to stay in Nanqin?"

Yan Chen nodded, "I had planned to return to Northern Qi earlier, so I went to Mobei with Master Xie. I didn't want to be trapped in Lin'an City. Fanghua's body loss is so heavy now, and it's all because I lured the people behind me. After hearing the news of the Northern Qi military camp, Hou Ye must have got up and went to Mobei, so I won't go with him this time, and stay to take care of Fanghua."

"Although Fanghua has excellent medical skills, doctors don't heal themselves. It would be best if Brother Yanchen could stay and take care of him." Qin Yu said.

Xie Mohan also nodded, "My sister never takes her body seriously, it's best for you to stay."

"So, you don't plan to take care of Qi Yanqing being recruited by the border?" Xie Yunji asked Yan Chen.

Yan Chen nodded, "I haven't been in Northern Qi for many years. Although I control most of the Yu family's power, it is not a military force. It is not very effective in stopping the Northern Qi military camp from going to war, and I can't control it."

"I can't control it, I can only help my brother to delay for a while." Xie Yunji spread his hands and said to Qin Yu, "You are both heirs to the throne, the prince can think of his own idea."

"If I can go to Northern Qi in person, I will not be afraid of Qi Yanqing. It's just that Zigui is going to Mobei to take over the barracks. These days, I'm already tired. In addition to your poor health, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it." Qin Yu looked at Thank you Mohan.

"The prince will give me Chuchi when he leaves Beijing, and let him follow me, and let him stay with me. My health can support me, so the prince can rest assured." Xie Mohan said, "Prince Qi raises troops, I will Don't be afraid of him either."

"Let me think about it again. Southern Qin has 30 soldiers and horses stationed in Mobei, and Northern Qi also has 30 soldiers and horses stationed in Mobei. If there is movement in the Northern Qi military camp, then, where we have no news and don't know, is it possible that the Northern Qi is approaching? Are the soldiers and horses in other places moving?" Qin Yu thought for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "I went to Mobei for more than half a year, and I only took over 30 troops in Mobei. As for other places in Southern Qin..."

When he said this, he seemed to think of something, and suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong? Can we also mobilize soldiers from other places?" Xie Mohan asked.

"The military system of the Southern Qin Dynasty is slightly different from that of the Northern Qi Dynasty. In the Northern Qi Dynasty, one side moves and eight directions move. Within [-] miles, the frontier general has the right to mobilize the nearby troops to solve problems, but the Southern Qin border general does not have this right." Qin Yu sighed.

Xie Mohan was stunned and sighed.

Qin Yu said helplessly, "Comparing the Xie family and the royal family of Southern Qin with the Yu family and the King of Northern Qi, the King of Northern Qi's strategy is to restrain the Yu family, but not remove it. The relationship between the monarchs and their relatives has been tight and appropriate over the years. But the Southern Qin Dynasty is different. The generation of the father and the emperor strictly defended the Xie family, restricted and suppressed it everywhere, and tried every means to get rid of it. In order to restrain the military power of the Mobei army camp and the power of the generals, there are four prefectures, counties and counties that are in charge of their own affairs. The order of the Northern General. Even if I send a letter to my father, he will send an order to the neighbors to help each other. I am afraid that it will be too late, and even if it is too late, it has been a long time since they have been divided, and they may not be of one mind."

Xie Yunji snorted when he heard the words, "No wonder Qi Yan seized the right time and insisted on raising troops. It turns out that apart from the civil strife in Southern Qin Dynasty, there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and there is also the military system on the border of Mobei." After finishing the words, he looked at Xie Yunji Mo Han, "I advise you, just resign with the prince and go back to seclusion now. If you look at it this way, even if you go, you won't be able to beat Qi Yanqing. As far as I know, the Northern Qi Dynasty has a radius of two hundred miles. If you get together, at least There are 20 soldiers and horses. Northern Qi adds up to 50 soldiers and horses, not counting Qi Yanqing's other plans."

Xie Mohan took a look at Xie Yunji and shook his head, "Yunji, don't talk nonsense. The Xie family was invited by Qin Taizu to serve the country loyally. As long as the royal family can use Xie's family, Xie's naturally shouldn't refuse. If the country is not the country, Where is home?"

Xie Yunji pursed his lips and looked at Qin Yu, "What did you think of just now? But you thought of a way? Since there is a loophole in the Southern Qin military system, why don't you, as the prince, fill it?"

Qin Yu frowned and said, "I am the prince, not the emperor."

Xie Yunji scoffed.

Qin Yu glanced at him, and said, "If you can save Mobei from danger, there is an extremely effective but difficult way."

"What way?" Xie Mohan asked immediately.

"Please send [-] soldiers from Xuecheng," Qin Yu said.

"Xuecheng?" Xie Mohan was surprised.

"That's right, it's Xuecheng. Xuecheng is located between the Southern Qin Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty. It belongs to the junction of the two countries, and the two do not care about the boundaries. The Southern Qin Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty have been fighting against each other for nearly 300 years. But Xuecheng was exposed in the middle." Qin Yu said , "Xyuecheng has [-] soldiers. If you can borrow the soldiers from Xuecheng, Qi Yanqing will never dare to raise troops against Beiqi."

Xie Yunji rolled his eyes, "You sound good, but are the soldiers in Xuecheng so easy to borrow? You can borrow soldiers just by touching your upper lip and lower lip? People in the world are silent when they mention Xuecheng. The people here are not human, they are all lunatics. The owner of the city is a lunatic, and the people who live in the city are either vicious villains or thieves, all kinds of evil spirits."

"I didn't say it was easy." Qin Yu said, "I just said it's an effective method, but it's extremely difficult to do."

"If you want to ask Xuecheng to send troops, it is indeed extremely difficult. Over the years, the Southern Qin Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty have had frictions on the border, but the two countries dare not easily move Xuecheng. One hundred thousand troops in Syracuse can be worth 30 troops A horse. The marsh of a city can reach the border of a country. It snows all year round, and the snow falls into gold." Xie Mohan said, "Even if it is difficult and it is a last resort, I still invite you."

Qin Yu didn't speak.

Xie Mohan clasped his hands and said, "Prince, how about this, I will set off immediately and go to Mobei. After arriving in Mobei to stabilize the army, I will immediately go to Xuecheng to invite troops."

Qin Yu thought for a while and said, "It is said that although the city owner is not very serious and does not play cards according to common sense, he has always respected the Xie family. In this way, I will write a handwritten letter and you will take it with you. You go there in person, plus my handwriting. It would be best if you can convince the city lord, even if you can't, it will still be delayed for two days. I will immediately send a secret letter to the royal father, because the border is urgent, and let him issue an order to change the military system. At the same time, troops will be dispatched from the central court to help you in Mobei, but the reinforcements are not available during this period, so I have to work hard for you."
