My wife is sick

Chapter 528 Attack
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Wei Changzheng's decision. As long as there is no war, it is indeed a good way to let these idle soldiers reclaim wasteland and plant land, and it can indeed relieve Jing Chao. Financial crisis of the treasury.

If there are no accidents, Wei Changzheng will indeed receive a lot of credit when the autumn harvest comes.

But his mistake was that the timing of pulling the soldiers away was wrong.

At the very beginning, because Wei Changzheng received a letter from Beijing, the Lord of the Town, Jiang Heng, asserted that the Northern Man would definitely invade the Jing Dynasty. He was concerned about the possibility of the Northern Man's war, so Wei Changzheng only dispatched a few A small number of border guards went to open up wasteland, while the rest of them were still guarding tightly.

But after nearly a month, there was no news from Beiman, and Wei Changzheng gradually put aside that caution, and began to mobilize at least half of his soldiers to open up wasteland.

Regarding Wei Changzheng's decision, among the border guards, it is not without objection.

For example, several generals around Jiang Heng once had extremely fierce conflicts with Wei Changzheng, trying to prevent Wei Changzheng's decision to let the soldiers open up wasteland.

However, after Jiang Heng left, Wei Changzheng was indeed the highest-ranking person among all of them. No matter how hard these generals tried to stop him, there was nothing they could do.

However, although these generals failed to finally prevent Wei Changzheng from sending all the soldiers to open up wasteland, they also restrained the people under them. These people can be said to be the direct descendants of Jiang Heng's direct line. Human beings also failed to play any role, and in the end naturally they could only let it go.

It was also because Jiang Heng's direct descendants were unwilling to open up wasteland, so Wei Changzheng simply arranged this part of the soldiers to guard the border town.

However, you can't catch a sheep with wool, right? Even if these soldiers are more willing to guard the border than open up wasteland, they are also flesh and blood, and they will always be tired. Of course, they have to change their defenses.

Just after the change of defense on this day, these soldiers who were diligent in training dragged their tired bodies back to the camp to rest, and replaced with some soldiers who opened up wasteland every day to defend the city, and an accident happened suddenly.

Because Wei Changzheng didn't think there would be any accidents at all, so he didn't send scouts to scout for possible enemy situations at all during this period, so that the enemies came to places that were visible to the naked eye, and finally they were caught on the sentry tower. Sentinel found out.

But at this time, how can there be time?
There is no doubt that it was the northern man who suddenly invaded the border.

The northern barbarians obviously planned it long ago. They did their mental calculations without intention. In addition, the soldiers who had just changed defenses were busy farming during this time, and hadn't practiced well for a while. It is conceivable who wins.

Although, because of the obstruction of the city wall, the Beiman was not able to break through the city in one fell swoop, but the invasion of the Beiman and Wei Changzheng's wrong strategy made the morale of the soldiers extremely low.

Compared with the low-morale Jingchao soldiers, the Beiman side had strong soldiers and horses, and their morale was greatly boosted. The two sides formed an extremely sharp contrast.

Under such circumstances, even if the Jing Dynasty is on the defensive side, it is relatively convenient, but if Wei Changzheng cannot quickly revive morale and reverse the adverse effects of the soldiers' neglect of drills due to long-term farming, The border is really dangerous.

At the very beginning, Wei Changzheng tried to do something. He even personally fought against the Northern Man in order to boost the morale of the soldiers. Beheaded by the northern barbarians, if it wasn't for a general brought out by Jiang Heng, who accompanied him into battle, to drag him onto his horse at a critical moment, Wei Changzheng might really die before he leaves the army. up.

In this way, Wei Changzheng's battle not only failed to revive morale, but also made morale even more depressed.

Wei Changzheng's performance like this is of course very disappointing.

For the soldiers at the border, it was Jiang Heng who led them to guard the border for the past 20 years. Now that Jiang Heng has returned to Beijing, a Wei Changzheng came. Heng is just as good, but at least it shouldn't be too far behind!
In the past with Jiang Heng as the coach, Wei Changzheng just obeyed Jiang Heng's orders and won a few battles, but now that the coach Jiang Heng has left and has not returned, Wei Changzheng is finally able to make decisions on his own, but he has to Come to such a result.

Wei Changzheng told the soldiers with his actual performance that compared with Jiang Heng, he was not worse than 01:30.

Under the internal and external troubles, Wei Changzheng didn't last long, and quickly rushed the situation at the border to the capital eight hundred miles away.

After receiving the battle report from the frontier, the imperial court was naturally shocked.

But at the same time as they were shocked, all civil and military officials could only keep their shock in their hearts and dare not show it on the surface.

As for the reason...

Needless to say?
Didn't Emperor Jingwen and Duke Zhen become estranged because of the Northern Man's affairs?

At that time, Zhenguo Gong said with certainty that the Beiman must have the heart of disobedience, and there is a high possibility that he will do the act of adding insult to injury before Jing Chao can recover.

Facts have proved that Duke Zhen's judgment is not wrong at all.

However, Emperor Jingwen at that time refused to believe it!

I don't know if I really didn't believe it, or because I couldn't believe it for some other reason. In short, the couple broke up because of this matter.

Originally, if Beiman really did not invade Jing Dynasty, then it would be fine.

But now...

The Beiman really invaded the Jing Dynasty, and Wei Changzheng, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Emperor Jingwen, made such a foolish trick, which made the morale of the soldiers at the frontier now low. .

After all, originally, if he had really followed Zhen Guogong's suggestion, or had directly sent Zhen Guogong back to the border, all of this could have been completely avoided.

Concerned about the possible reaction from Emperor Jingwen, all the court officials kept silent on this matter.

Completely different from the reaction of the officials in the court, the people in the capital started discussing it unabashedly after they knew about it.

Jing Dynasty and Xiyi have been fighting for more than [-] years, and finally the two countries finally negotiated a peace, and the peace was negotiated when Jing Dynasty had the upper hand. The people felt that they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Can you imagine that just after one Western Yi was settled, another Northern Man came?

For this reason, the people will inevitably feel panicked.
