Dajin picked up a god of war

Chapter 594 Qiaojun Huan's Chip

Huan Chong's attitude made Huan Yi laugh in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it in face.

Now is the critical moment to convince old man Huan, but he can't make him unhappy.

"The old general is right, Ye Wang also understands these principles, but once we can't suppress the situation, the Jingzhou soldiers will be in chaos again. At that time, Xie An will still be proud of the court. Our soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, but Wouldn't it be too unfair to have a name for infighting?"

Speaking of this topic, Huan Yi and Huan Chong fell into silence one after another. For Huan Chong, his indignation was more than a personal honor and disgrace.

It doesn't really matter whether Huan Chong can get the power he wants, because he is old and he didn't have anything to fight for when he was young. At this age, he has long stopped pursuing it.

Now, Xiangyang City has also been recaptured, and Xinye has also left. Although he failed to achieve his youthful dream of prancing into the Central Plains, he has recaptured these cities that he personally lost!

It can be regarded as comforting him for the rest of his life, but Xie An's actions still made his old heart uneasy.

At this time, Xie Xuan got such an important military power, isn't that just hitting the Jingzhou brothers in the face?

Even in this battle in Xiangyang, it is still the Beifu soldiers who contributed more, but the role of Jingzhou soldiers is not small.

The power of the generals in Jingzhou did not expand, but backhandedly gave such a high official position as Xie Xuan, who has always been self-respecting.

This makes the brothers in Jingzhou no matter how motivated they are to serve the court in the future?
To serve the country, to serve the country, is a good thing to say, but, without any sweetness, the soldiers will not have motivation.

There was no systematic professional military system in Dajin, and almost all the soldiers who joined the army were ordinary farmers before.

You said to these farmers, we want to revitalize the Great Jin and restore the Central Plains!

This is our mission!
We must do our best, even at the risk of our lives.

The brothers don't understand it, but even if he understands it, he can't get it into his head and implement it very well.

It is still necessary to have money, food, and tangible benefits that can be seen, so that the soldiers will have the strength and determination to charge.

Huan Chong told all the injustices in his heart. How could Huan Yi not understand these truths. Every general who competes for power in the court is actually fighting for resources for his soldiers.

This is different from those civil servants who intrigue each other every day in the court. Those civil servants, even if they break their heads and fight, basically, they represent themselves.

At best, it is the interests of one family, or a small group of several families.

Xie An entrusted such heavy power to his nephew. Isn't this just a calculation for Huan Chong?
"Then what do you think?"

Huan Yi is a calm personality, indifferent to fame and fortune, but Huan Chong is very clear that his resourcefulness is no worse than those who have been intriguing in the imperial court all day long.

"For now, we can only wait and see."

"Think about it, general, once Fu Jian raises his army, then Jiang Zuo and Jiang You will be in flames for a month. At that time, it's uncertain who will kill the deer!"

"Then Xie Xuan just got the military power, and his foothold is not stable. I, Jingzhou soldiers, have always been at a distance from the imperial court. I used to be known for being disobedient to transfers. This time, if he wants to rescue Xinye, Xie Xuan must use it. The strength of my Jingzhou soldiers, but how can I fiddle with my Jingzhou soldiers as he wants!"

"If you want Jingzhou soldiers to fight hard to kill the enemy, you must come up with reasonable exchange conditions. In the past, because of the good cooperation on the battlefield in Xiangyang, we temporarily put this request on hold."

"Since he Xie An is not a human being first, then we can't blame our Jingzhou soldiers for being rude!"

Huan Yi didn't want to do this originally, they all forced him!

bargain!

The only rule for families to compete!
You see, now Huan Yi is active in Xinye, although it is temporary, but his old nest Jiangzhou has not had a prefect for a long time.

Seeing how the war is going on now, I have to arrange someone for Jiangzhou. Huan Yi doesn't want to go back to Jiangzhou anymore.

He decided to follow Wang Zhiyuan on errands, and Jiangzhou needed new people to control it.

If this candidate had been in the past, maybe Huan Chong was in a good mood, and with a wave of his hand, he would have given it to the candidate arranged by the court.

To put it bluntly, that is the person Xie An took a fancy to. This person does not necessarily come from his Chen County Xie Clan.

Xie's is now in control of the Beifu soldiers, and it is already a big tree to attract wind. Xie An is not so confused. In a city like Jiangzhou that can take care of both upstream and downstream, everyone in the court is watching important positions, and then Arrange for a family member to thank, isn't that the egg stone waiting for the little friends!
Unless Xie An doesn't want to mix up!
Otherwise, the leader of Jiangzhou this time will definitely not be from the Xie Clan, and similarly, it is unlikely that it is from the Huan Clan.

Huan Yi had just left, and another surnamed Huan was hired, so it would be better to continue to let Huan Yi serve concurrently. Xie An should not do such unnecessary things.

Then, it is very likely that this new candidate will be selected among those other noble people in the court.

The so-called noble people, first of all, must come from several big families. Xie An still has this class concept. Of course, such a good job as Jiangzhou's prefect cannot be cheap.

Even if it is allocated to other noble families, it is still an operation where the meat is rotten in the pot, and Xie An can still accept it.

"Wonderful!"

"Fantastic!" Huan Chong high-fives again and again, his face almost twisted into a ball with joy, Huan Yi told him his speculations one by one, and Huan Chong was immediately excited.

"The old man said it long ago, you young people have more ways to do it!"

"Yup!"

"How could you forget about this!"

Huan Chong slapped his forehead violently, as if he had just had an epiphany.

"As long as we can control a few big states in our hands, then Xie An will never take advantage of it!"

Huan Chong was right, the power of the governor in Xie Xuan's hands was, strictly speaking, a temporary military power.

Because there is still a threat from Di Qin, although there is no accurate information on when Fu Jian will send troops, but as long as the sword hangs high, Da Jin will need to mobilize troops in the country in time to meet the enemy together. Responsibilities exist.

Xie An seized such an opportunity and placed the power to mobilize all the troops in the Jin Dynasty on Xie Xuan's head.

Why do you say that Xie An took a lot of advantage?
That's all because there is no indication that Fu Jian is going to invade the south in a big way, and Xie An is equivalent to mobilizing all the troops in Jin in advance.

Taking advantage of this time difference, Xie Xuan could familiarize himself with the details of each army and place low-level generals.

These are all things that Xie Xuan can operate. When Fu Jian really sends troops, then Xie Xuan's chance to show his skills will come.

At the end of the war, the Xie family has all grasped the real situation of each army, and the network has been arranged.

It is not so easy for these troops to return to their original commanders.It is very likely that the low-level generals will defect to Xie Xuan and restrain the local generals.

At that time, the tyrants in various places in Dajin might be able to be defeated by Xie An in one fell swoop!
However, within the scope of a separatist force like the Great Jin, which needs to constantly mobilize a large army to deal with wars that may start at any time, military power can also be divided into two branches.

One is the governor general like Xie Xuan, and the other is the individual military forces in various places. These military forces are still under the control of the governors, shepherds, and even the prefects and the long history of the states.

Don't underestimate this power. Xie Xuan wants to let all the armies in the Great Jin territory be able to give orders and point the sword to one place, so the support of these local leaders is very necessary.

After all, the Great Jin Dynasty was not the Ming Dynasty of later generations. At that time, the ruling unit based on the county system had already reached its peak. Except for the beacon fires in the last years of the dynasty, most of the time, the territory of the Ming Dynasty was still harmonious.

On the other hand, the harmony of dynasties like the Great Jin is definitely one of the very few in the history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty that is less than a hundred years old. In the history of the Great Jin Dynasty, it was either civil strife, or various forces in the court, pinch pinch pinch, or violent foreign enemy invasion, no. A peaceful day.

How can it be possible to establish an effective county system?

Therefore, generally speaking, the military power within a county is in the hands of the highest officer within a state and a county.

The highest-ranking official is not necessarily the largest of the officials, as long as it is a person with real power within the region.

For example, in the history of the Southern Dynasty, which followed the Eastern Jin Dynasty, because the overall political situation was also unstable, the prefects and prefects dispatched by the imperial court were often reduced to decoration.

What really has the final say is the long history of the place whose official position is lower than theirs.

Why is there such a situation?
It is precisely because the locality does not obey the central court, even the imperial power is not very useful.For example, taking Liu Song as an example, Liu Yu himself was born in the army and came from Caomang. He can be said to empathize with and have a deep understanding of the various problems in the Jiangzuo area.

So, when he became the emperor, he began to place all the younger brothers and nephews that he could rely on to serve as local governors.

(Liu Yu's own sons were very young, and until his death, only one adult was an adult. In Liu Yujian's era, he could not undertake local defense very well.)
These local governors are always changing, so that their power in the local area is not stable. Once they are stable, they are likely to raise their banners and challenge the imperial court.

Comparatively speaking, on the contrary, they have a lower status and have a long history of managing specific affairs in one state and one county. They are likely to serve for a long time in one place and form a force.

In the army within the territory, the people are often willing to obey Changshi's mobilization, and Changshi also has the power to distribute their corresponding interests.

As for people, most people tend to go where they benefit. Therefore, inferring from the same incident, in the last years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the situation was similar.

If Xie Xuan wants to wave the baton smoothly, he has to look at the generals in these places and see if he wants to listen to him.

You know, these ministers and generals of the Great Jin Dynasty, although few can achieve great things, but there are as many as can be demons.

And everyone has a unique skill, and they are guaranteed to make all kinds of new tricks, so they are not easy to mess with.

Thinking of this, Huan Chong felt relieved.

He told Huan Yi to quickly write the letter that he communicated with Wang Mi, without wasting time.

Huan Yi was puzzled.

It was Lao Huan who said that he should not be in a hurry to contact Wang Zhiyuan, but now it is also Lao Huan who is in a hurry.

The mood changes too fast!

However, Mr. Huan upholds the principle that when I say that I am reasonable, I am reasonable. You don't understand, and that is your problem.

Frankly said: "The situation here has also changed. Ye Wang, write a letter to Wang Mi, don't just focus on the battle situation in Xinye, but also inquire about the trends in the court."

"For example, how do the government and the public view Xie Xuan's new official position? If you can ask, you must ask as much as possible."

Huan Chong was persuasive and kind, and said his request very kindly. There was no way, but if he could be 20 years younger, he would have written this letter by himself.

If you want to ask anything, just write what you want, so you won't beat around the bush. Huan Yi is a decent person, but Huan Chong has never been.

"It turns out that you bought Delang with such thoughts in mind."

"Don't worry!"

"Leave this to me, no problem!"

It was rare that Huan Chong and Huan Chong reached a consensus on the matter of uniting Wang Mi. Huan Yi was also in a good mood and made three pledges in a row.

What's the point of him being alone with Wang Mi?
Wouldn't it be beautiful if all the Jingzhou troops, including the Huan clan in Qiaojun, could be mobilized and defected to the Lord of Ming?
…………

On the other side, Liu Yu, who was in Jingkou in the mansion of the Wang family in Langya, also received good news.

The demobilization of the Jingkou soldiers and the re-arrangement of the enlistment work are being carried out in an orderly manner. Wei Yongzhi, who was cured by Yin Zhongkan, finally defected to the Beifu and became a team leader.

Wei Yongzhi has always been brooding about the fact that his position is far behind Tan Pingzhi and the other Nandu brothers.

Of course, he wasn't jealous that Tan Pingzhi and the others had become generals, but he was also dead when he sighed. If he hadn't had this pain, I'm afraid he, Wei Yongzhi, would have already shown his skills on the battlefield of Xiangyang City!
In terms of martial arts, his old Wei has never been at a disadvantage. What's more, unlike Tan Ping, who is born with strange powers, his old Wei's martial arts are the best among this wave of people who have crossed the north from the south!

Wei Yongzhi's superb bowing and horse skills will definitely help the Jin army win greater victories on the Xiangyang battlefield, and he can also achieve his life goals.

Become famous and shine in the world!
Liu Yu is also very relieved to have arrived. Who would have thought that he had only stayed in Beijing for a few days, and the champion general Xie Xuan, who was originally regarded as his biggest enemy, actually set off for Jiankang!
Is this the legendary help of God?
After Xie Xuan left, the largest general guarding Jingkou became Liu Laozhi.

However, Liu Laozhi was nothing to be afraid of, and Liu Yu never took him seriously.

Liu Laozhi came from a family of generals. In terms of background, he was a little better than Liu Yu, but in Dajin, this little advantage didn't make much difference.

After all, everyone here is ashamed of joining the army.

Except for Xie Xuan who came to lead the troops because of family reasons, other generals, Liu Yu did not pay attention at all.

Of course Liu Yu knew that Liu Laozhi's official position was still far above him, and this situation would never change for a while.

He could see very clearly that even in terms of military merit, Liu Yu was not too different from Liu Laozhi.However, among the Beifu soldiers ruled by the Xie family, the Xie family will definitely protect Liu Laozhi, and will never let Liu Yu ascend to the throne smoothly.

So, is there any hope for Xiao Liu?
