Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 870: A gentleman is safe and does not forget danger

ps: There is another chapter at 12 o’clock. Let’s push the old driver Sanhong’s “Five Thousand Years of War”, which is very interesting and has infinite flow.

It has only been ten days since the battle began. Although many Zhao troops have penetrated into Hejian, so that the Qi people are at a disadvantage, if they go out and pull Gaotang and Linzi's troops over, they may not lose so quickly, but Chen Heng Or quickly send someone to ask for peace.

Zhao's retainers and aides were overjoyed. It was naturally good to be able to subdue the soldiers without fighting. They all persuaded Zhao Wuxi to accept the begging. .

How could Zhao Wuxi not be aware of Chen Heng's Xiao Jiujiu, he said to the crowd: "I know this person too well, Chen Zichang's actions are like a strong man breaking his wrist and abandoning the ground to protect the people. If I guess correctly, he wants to make Zhao The army stopped the offensive, so as to take the opportunity to relocate the population of Hejian."

Contrary to what Wei thought, after learning that Zhao Wuxi wanted to cut Hejian, Chen Qi, Chen Heng and their son made plans to give up here.

The river is a vast plain formed by the impact of the tributaries of the big river, but it has always been a blank area with swamps, tidal flats and saline-alkali land. Most of the Rong and Di tribes here do not have Qimin households, and the population is difficult to count, but at most no more than 100,000. The newly built fortresses in Qi State in the past six years, such as Dongwu City and Fuliu, are also mostly used for military purposes. This piece of land did not bring much taxation to the Chen family, and it was mainly used as the defense depth of Gaotang's base camp.

After all, once Jin obtained Hejian, Gaotang on the other side would face the threat.

But if Zhao's pressure is too tight, for Hejian to have a decisive battle with Zhao's here, in Chen Heng's view, he feels that the gains outweigh the losses, not to mention that they have no faith in victory, even if they take great efforts to repel Zhao's attack , The Great Wall to the south is empty, and the State of Lu and the State of Gaoyu will take advantage of it. Compared with the threat from the Zhao family, the exiled state and the remnants of the Gaoyu are what the Chen family is most worried about.

Therefore, Chen Heng decided to further shrink the line of defense, so that the soldiers can be effectively concentrated. As Thaksin said, although Qi has repeatedly lost divisions and lost ground, it is still a country of four fortresses, and it is not difficult to defend.

Therefore, he has already started to migrate the population. He will move Hejian into a piece of white land, and then rely on the Dahe and Gaotang, Yiyi and other fortified cities to defend, so that he can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Enough to cut off anyone trying to cross the river!

However, this wish for peace was not immediately accepted by the Zhao clan. Zhao Wuxi ignored Chen clan's shout of "stop!" and ordered several troops to move forward to divide and surround the stronghold of Qi in Hejian. , Only one place in Dongwu City was left untouched. After learning that Lu Guo’s attack on Qi Great Wall failed to get any advantage, he agreed to Chen Heng’s request.

As a result, the Chen family only had time to move one third of the population of Hejiandi, and even got into the remaining thousand defenders of Dongwu City. If they want to redeem it, I am afraid that there will be some blood...

The armistice agreement was signed on the main stream of the big river. Unlike the tributaries called "Qinghe" in the west, the "Zhuohe" with turbid water is fast and wide, especially in the Spring and Autumn Period when the water was abundant in the north. Pushing back more than a thousand years, in the era of Dayu's flood control, the entire North China Plain was a swamp country that he ran through.

Chen is able to recognize counsel, can subordinate people, and at the same time is extremely tolerant. After the robbery of the Heiqi River by the robbery a few years ago threatened the safety of shipping, they paid more attention to the sailor. Chen's big river navy, with five large wings, dozens of middle wings and small wings, and nearly a hundred squatters, did have the ability to block and overwhelm Zhao Jun's pontoon bridge. Zhao Wuxi wanted to go across the river in one go, although he could do it. to, but the loss is by no means small.

What's more, if we want to fight Gaotang, Yiyi, or even Linzi, it will be a nationwide battle. Maybe it will take two or three years without results. By then, the treasury will be empty and the soldiers will be exhausted. Instead, Han and Wei will slowly recover and develop. , wouldn't it be bad to let Wu Chu go north? Zhao Wuxi was not interested in learning from Cao Cao to throw a whip, and then years of painstaking efforts turned into nothing. Now what is needed is stability, not urgency.

It is not possible to attack a country of thousands of vehicles overnight, but to cut the flesh with a dull knife and kill it slowly.

"Today I will cut five cities, tomorrow I will cut ten cities, and then I can sleep in peace for two or three years, and I will look at the four realms, and Zhao's army has arrived again... The enshrined is more numerous, and the invasion is more urgent, so the strong and the weak will win without fighting. The sentence is over, as for subversion, of course." Standing on the edge of the Zhuo River, Zhao Wuxi smiled, and he was one step closer to Gaotang and Linzi.

This is also beneficial, that is, to spread an illusion to the princes and Han Wei: Zhao's eradication was for revenge, to recapture Hejian, to regain lost territory, and at the same time to increase prestige, Zhao Wuxi pursued, or like him. The ancestor Zhao Xuanzi sought Jin's hegemony, not in annexing the world.

Therefore, from the beginning of the state of Lu to the present, although he had the opportunity to destroy more than ten small states in Si Shang, Zhao Wuxi did not destroy any of the villages, except for Huawai Rong Di, who overran the king. To find ways to not let the enemy twist into a rope, this is an essential quality to seek the world. Killing the Quartet like Napoleon and defeating the anti-French alliance several times in a row is indeed legendary and enjoyable, but whether it is the people or the country's war machine, there will be a tired day.

Troops were dispatched at the end of January, and the war ended at the end of February. This time, the Hejian offensive in the 20th year of Jin Houwu and Qi Ruzihou's five-year Hejian offensive came and went quickly. The result ended with the return of Qi to Hejian.

The victory was so easy, and for a time, the Zhao family was full of joy, and even Zhao Wuxi was a little proud.

The Zhao family returned with a great victory. Because there was no major battle, there were only hundreds of casualties. Of course, except for the 200,000 stone of corn, 5,000 catties of gema, and 2,000 bells of salt that the Chen family promised to "compensate" for Zhao's loss

In addition, there is no ready-made loot to speak of.

Although Hejian was known in later generations as "the land and the sea, the benefits of the salt scorpion, and the capital of the military.

The car is profitable, and the four quarters offer hundreds of millions, and all of them are given to Yan. "But in this era, the population is small and the land is poor. If you want to be rich, it still takes decades or even hundreds of years to develop.

Zhao Wuxi's purpose of attacking Hejian was more strategic.

This place is the land and water point of the North China Plain. It is bordered by the river and Ji in the south, and Handan and Dongyang in the west. Taking this place will not only expand the depth of Ye City, make the base camp safer, but also get closer to Gaotang, making the Chen family sleepless day and night. It is impossible to develop internal affairs well and restore the national strength of Qi.

Zhao Wuxi immediately merged this newly acquired piece of long and narrow land, along with Guantao and other cities in the south, into one county: Hejian County, which was the third county under Zhao's rule, and was located on the banks of Julu Ze. In Julu City, Yang Yin, an old retainer of the Zhao family, served as the county governor, and Yang Tongrong was the commander of the county.

In the official office, he smiled and said to the crowd: "The Qi people built the city, and the Zhao family took over, so the city in Hejian is ready-made."

"Guantao County, Julu County, Wusui Road, Dongwucheng Road, and Fuliu Road, for the time being, two counties and five roads are listed first. Except for Julu and Guantao, the other three roads are exempt from tax for one year, and pavilions should be set up as soon as possible. Post, set up household Qimin."

After the war was over, he arranged trivial matters to the ministers, and it was rare to relax. Zhao Wu's mental slack and pride also reached the extreme, so he went to see Julu Ze, where he had no time to play a few days ago.

...

Julu Ze is located in the center of the North China Plain. It is rumored that "the Great Yu guides the river, north through the Wushui River, and as for the mainland". The mainland is also known as Julu. The network is vertical and horizontal, and the lake is vast. This Juluze is surrounded by Qinghe, Zhangshui and other waters. Zhao Wuxi climbed the mountain and overlooked it. He saw that this place was magnificent and engulfed the world, no less than Yunmeng and Wuhu in the south.

He couldn't help but praised: "The vast soup and soup are boundless; the morning sun and the evening cloudy, the weather is amazing!" It is indeed a water pump in North China. With this big lake, I am not afraid that the surrounding agriculture will not be able to do it.

Just at this time, some retainers flattered Zhao Wuxi, saying that Shangqing used to be frugal in Yecheng and kept his family thrifty and did not build high-rise buildings. The majesty of Shangqing, how about building a palace on the banks of the beautiful Julu Ze?

The so-called Daze is not a simple big lake. In addition to the lake water, there are also many wetlands. This terrain is suitable for lords, officials and doctors for hunting and entertainment. That retainer was fully prepared, and even helped Zhao Wuxi take care of the place where Xiuli Palace was.

He pointed to a place under the mountain and said: "There is a beautiful scenery, surrounded by hills, excellent feng shui, and the essence of a giant deer. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is better to launch the Rong and Di in Hejian, build large-scale construction projects, and build Taichi pools. Shang Qing's departure from the palace."

Although Zhao Wuxi didn't like extravagance, he saw that the place at the bottom of the mountain surrounded by streams and full of maple trees would definitely be more beautiful in the fall. , isn't it beautiful, so he asked casually, "What is the name of this place?"

"Named Dune..."

Hearing these two words in his ears, it was like a thunderbolt, which made Zhao Wuxi, who was a little slack because of the continuous victory, suddenly deafened and suddenly woke up.

"dune!"

This place is poisonous, especially for the emperor with the surname Ying, it is even more poisonous!

King Wuling of Zhao, Hu Fu riding and shooting, annexed Loufan Lin Hu, pushed the Zhao people's sphere of influence to the Hetao Plain in one breath, destroyed the Zhongshan Kingdom, and pushed the Zhao Kingdom to a strong state, but in the end, because of being too arrogant, the internal affairs and the throne were messed up. In the end, he was starved to death in the sand dune palace, the hegemony became a waste, and he was given the evil posthumous title of "spirit"...

Later, Qin Shihuang, who swayed his long-term strategy and entered the imperial palace, swallowed two weeks and killed the feudal lords, held the supreme honor and made Liuhe, and beat the world by knocking and thrashing. The collections of Yan Zhao, the management of Han and Wei, the elites of Qi and Chu, for several generations and several years, they plundered their people, and their leanings were like mountains, all of which were taken by the Qin emperor. His **** heart became increasingly arrogant. ? After the change of the sand dunes, after the first emperor became a corpse, he could not stop the conspiracy of the eunuchs and courtiers. The emperor was dignified and mixed in the stinky fish and abalone. die, laugh for the world...

So for the sand dunes, Zhao Wuxi couldn't avoid it, sighed unluckily, turned around and left.

"Shangqing, Shangqing, if you don't like it, there are other places to choose from..." The flattering retainer chased after him, but was held up by Zhao Wuxi and shouted angrily:

"My father Zhao Wuzi once sank his retainer Luan Yu into the river and said: I used to love music and women, and Luan Yu found it for me. I used to love palaces, and Luan Yu built them for me. The horse is a good driver, and Luan Yu came to him quickly. Now I have been fond of the Magi for six years, but Luan Yu has never recommended a person. He is contributing to my faults and obliterating my strengths!"

"My father's teachings~www.readwn.com~ I can't forget it for a day without a shirt. In the future, all those who are like Luan Yu, who make great efforts to build large-scale construction, build pavilions and palaces indiscriminately, deprive officials and vassals of their status, and hand them over to Dali. Bribery is punished!"

The retainer was taken down, and Zhao Wuxi finally glanced at the direction of the sand dunes. Although the spring breeze was gentle, cold sweat broke out on his head.

He found himself slack and self-satisfied.

Has your career surpassed that of King Zhao Wuling? Not necessarily, can you reach the level of Qin Shihuang in this life? Not necessarily.

He is not even qualified to repeat their mistakes!

"A gentleman is safe without forgetting danger, survival without forgetting death, governance without forgetting chaos, so that the body is safe and the country can be protected... Close to worthy ministers and stay far away from villains, be cautious, be cautious!"

After admonishing himself, Zhao Wuxi was about to leave Julu and return to Yecheng from Handan, but just when he was about to leave, he received another message.

The Han family had a conflict with Zheng Guo... (To be continued.)
