Chapter 426 Follow-up Aftermath
Three days had passed since the war, and the Southwest Army was still packing up the corpses and various things on the battlefield, and spreading the news.Naturally, all the news including the attack on the Southwest Army and Jiang Yuan's death in battle were sent to the capital as soon as possible.

The army cannot be without a commander for a day, even if the deputy commander of Wencai can be temporarily in charge, the court still needs to arrange a commander as soon as possible.

Even if this coach is just a decoration, it is still necessary!
After the war, Wen Cai's reputation in the Southwest Army was in full swing. No matter who the imperial court sent to be the commander, it could not be compared with Wen Cai.

Moreover, the Southwest Army has never been valued by the imperial court, and there are few intertwined forces in it.If it were the Army of the Nine Frontiers, even if Wen Cai made great contributions, he would not be able to escape the constraints of the meritorious service of each army.

To put it bluntly, almost all the armies of the Nine Frontiers have become private armies with high military merits. The reason why they have not formed a trend that cannot be lost is because the current emperor can suppress these military meritorious troops. loyal.

Loyalty is one thing, but profit is another.

The emperor can intervene in the army of the nine borders, but if other people dare to touch this piece of fat, they will not be able to deal with most of the military meritorious service.

Even within the military meritorious ranks, they have already divided their respective interests, and they should not be offside easily.

This is also the reason why Wen Cai wanted to go to the Southwest Army, because there was no room for him to play on the Nine Sides.Even if he is a descendant of military meritorious service like him, according to the unspoken rules, he can only intervene in the Jinpaowei, and is not allowed to extend his hand to the army of the nine sides.

Similarly, those who have meritorious military exploits are not allowed to intervene in Jinpaowei, because Jinpaowei tacitly agreed to be the basic board of the Zhongyihou Mansion.

If anyone intervenes, it will be at odds with the Zhongyi Houfu!
However, if Wencai got the Southwest Army, although the military's meritorious service is envious, they will not be jealous, but will welcome Wencai to join.

Not only because Wencai itself is a part of them, but also because this will expand the power of the military meritorious family, and what they get in return is just another top-notch family in the military meritorious family.

Today's military meritorious families are the first and second generations, and they are very clear-headed, knowing that wooing is better than fighting, as long as the plate is made bigger and bigger, the benefits they get will also be bigger and bigger!
I believe that in the near future, there will be an endless stream of letters of favor and wooing from various military exploits.

north.

The grassland is the biggest enemy of the Great Xia Dynasty, which is why Xia Di has always wanted the Northern Expedition.

It is precisely because of this that Xia Di was very careful every time he went to the Northern Expedition, because he knew how powerful those guys on the grassland were, so he made adequate preparations.

However, every time the prairie people faced a large number of Xia troops, they would not confront them head-on. Instead, they fought guerrilla warfare, relying on the vastness of the grassland and the harsh environment to drag down the Xia army, and then defeated the Xia army.

Xia Di has fought against the grassland army for many years, so he naturally knows this well. In addition to making thorough preparations, he is also very calm emotionally.

It has been more than a month since the army entered the grassland, but the number of grassland cavalry that has been wiped out is less than a thousand. However, from Xia Di to the generals, no one is impatient, and everyone is very calm.

Because they know in their hearts that it is useless to be anxious, they are like a group of patient hunters, driving their prey together to hunt.

Xia Di was looking at the map, gesticulating with his fingers on the map, with a smile on his face.

After more than a month of patient hunting, the Golden Family on the grassland has been forced into a circle by him.As long as this circle is locked tightly, the golden family on the grassland can be guaranteed to be trapped inside, waiting for the army to close the net.

Once the Golden Family is wiped out, Xia Di's Northern Expedition will basically be completed.

Without the prairie tribe of the Golden Family, even if there is still a practice force like the Black and White Shrine, but without that strong appeal, the prairie tribe will once again become a mass of scattered sand, and no one can subdue anyone.

At that time, Xia Chao only needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait until the prairie people are almost killed before striking a thunderous blow, and they can guarantee the stability of the border for a hundred years!

Just when Xia Di was full of joy, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the door, which made his brows furrowed.

Because Xia Di heard that it was Eunuch Qin's footsteps, it's probably not a small thing to make the other party so anxious!
Sure enough, after a while, the figure of Eunuch Qin appeared in front of Xia Di.

"Your Majesty, the Southwest Emergency Report."

Xia Di took out the letter hidden in the bamboo tube from Eunuch Qin's hand, which was an urgent way.When he opened the letter, Xia Di staggered immediately. If it wasn't for Eunuch Qin's support, he would almost fall down.

"Jiang Yuan is dead, leading [-] elites to be ambushed by the Tianming Sect, and the entire army is wiped out. The Tianming Sect's million-strong army marched southwest except for the mountains..."

Xia Di only saw the beginning, and the news was like a thunderbolt exploding in his ears.

Jiang Yuan is the most successful general supported by Xia Di over the years, and also his most trusted disciple, otherwise he would not be able to command the 20 troops in the southwest.But he died like this, and died in such a dishonorable way, which made Xia Di feel regretful in his heart.

It's not that Xia Di doesn't know Jiang Yuan's thoughts, but he just feels that Southwest cannot do without him for the time being, and Jiang Yuan is still young.But I didn't expect that the other party's obsession was so deep that he made such a big mistake...

After Xia Di fainted slightly, he continued to read with strength, and his complexion gradually recovered.

When Xia Di saw Wencai leading [-] iron cavalry to smash the Tianming Sect's million-strong army, his face was no longer pale, and his face was full of red, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahahaha, God bless me Daxia, God bless me Daxia..."

After Xia Di finished reading the content, he couldn't help but read it again, and then handed it to Eunuch Qin who was beside him.Eunuch Qin quickly read it, and immediately complimented him: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, if not for His Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, and using Zhao Wencai as a general, I am afraid that the general who descended from heaven would also be buried. Another general of the Xia Dynasty!"

Hearing Eunuch Qin's compliment, Xia Di couldn't help but let out another burst of laughter, obviously the other party's compliment won his heart.

After all, Xia Di is a generation of Mingjun, and after a short period of excitement, he returned to reality.Although the Southwest Army successfully repelled the Tianming Sect's attack this time and resolved the great crisis of the Great Xia Dynasty, he had to pay attention to the various serious problems that emerged.
