Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 66
"Actually, I don't want to embarrass these suffering people. We were all poor people who hated heaven and ghosts. Why should we kill each other?" Ji Kan then sighed: "The scale of our dead army is still too small. We can't resist any one of the Eight Great Begging Army of ghosts and monsters alone. Once they look at our salt mines, I'm afraid we won't even have a chance to resist. So we must develop and grow in the shortest possible time!"

Although Gao Jingzong did not intervene in the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he also knew something about it.All in all, the population has more than doubled since the first batch of food arrived in Xiangxian Valley, breaking through the 1 population mark.It reached more than [-] people. Due to the daily increase of the population, the exact number cannot be calculated.Most of these new populations are old and weak, women and children, and [-]% to [-]% of them, but the most valuable young and strong human resources are very few.Even among the newly added population of more than [-], less than [-]% are young and strong.The loyalty of these people is also a problem, so these people cannot be trained as an army before they are integrated into a collective.

At present, Banxian Valley has expanded the scale of salt production, using salt in exchange for various materials that are in great need.There is no shortage of supplies. If there is no self-protection ability, it is like letting a child walk on the street with a huge sum of 500 million yuan, clearly giving others a chance to be robbed.Therefore, the expansion of the dead army is also imminent.

Gao Jingzong frowned and said: "Didn't it mean that the enmity between Jiziying and Tian's army is as deep as sea? Will they surrender to our dead army? Besides, will there be friction between the soldiers of the two sides and a division inside?"

"The enmity between Jiziying and the Tian family army back then is actually nothing serious!" Ji Kan said in a low voice, "When we escaped from Yecheng, my brother rescued the young master from the palace and broke out of the city. At that time, the army of Yan army was escorting the gold and silver treasures that had just been looted from the palace treasury. The amount of these treasures was very large, there were more than 100 cars, and the value was more than one million gold. These treasures were actually stone tigers. During the emperor’s time, the people who levied and plundered were all the fat of the people. The late emperor once rewarded the heroes and soldiers. Although more than ten treasuries have been used up to eighty-nine, there are still millions of gold left. My brother thought that the vehicles protected by the heavy troops of the Yan army must be It was the empress dowager and the prince and other important officials of the Wei state who led the people of the Wei state soldiers who had protruded from the encirclement to rush into the Yan army's chariot, trying to rescue the empress dowager and the prince. However, after several times of rushing, after paying heavy casualties, they finally recaptured the more than 100 soldiers. However, my brother fell from his horse with an arrow and was surrounded by the Yan army who came after him. He was captured and killed in Longcheng. Feng Zhonglei (official) and I fled south with the remnants. , buried these treasures. Almost all the soldiers who knew about it were killed in the rear, and less than five people knew the location of this treasure."

"Five people?" Gao Jingzong wondered, "Could it be that some of these five people betrayed Jiziying?"

"No!" Ji Kan shook his head and said, "I have a personal guard named Guo Danian who knew about it. Once he slipped his tongue after drinking and told his brother-in-law Huang Ruyi about it. He was severely punished and kicked out of Jiziying. Later, this Huang Ruyi held a grudge against me, so he defected to Tian Bao. In fact, it is not here, but on the bank of Baima Lake on the south bank of Huai River, less than [-] miles away from Tianjiabao. When Feng Lei rode into Tianjiabao alone, it did not dispel Tian Hu's greed, and then we Jiziying had to leave alone Jiziying, we didn’t let us take anything away except for the tattered clothes and some food that could feed our hunger. However, Tian Bao dug three feet in the old land of our original Jiziying and searched several times but couldn’t find this treasure. Seeing that our Jiziying has been impoverished, people starve to death every year, and it doesn’t look like we are rich, so we let our Jiziying go. Tian Bao thought Huang Ruyi was teasing him, so he killed Huang Ruyi angrily. The matter is over."

Gao Jingzong said: "This time Tian Bao saw that we suddenly bought such a large amount of grain, and mistakenly thought that we dug up this batch of treasures and used them. That's why most of the soldiers of the Tian family army were dumped. The purpose is not only ours. Salt mine, but these treasures?"

"Not surprisingly, the truth is like this!" Ji Kan said: "Tian Bao is extremely greedy, and he probably won't let many people know about this batch of treasures, so Tian's army and Ji Ziying were not originally related. It is entirely possible to withdraw.”

"Will they surrender?" Ji Kan said, "Certainly not for the time being, but they don't have food channels, and they carry their own food. Except for armor and weapons, each person can at best carry enough food for ten days at most. It has been four days now, and they can't last for a few more days. As long as they surround themselves for ten and a half months, they will definitely have no choice but to surrender. Besides, their families are all in Tianjiabao. If there is no accident, within five days, they will be named deputy general There is definitely a chance to take Tianjiabao, and they have to surrender with the family members of the Tianjia army as hostages."

"Even so, if Tian Bao doesn't die, I'm afraid Tian's army won't surrender easily!" Gao Jingzong said: "Seeing that Uncle Ji has a plan in mind, could it be that he has a good plan?"

Ji Kan said: "It's not a good strategy, I just want Hu Guang to kill Tian Bao in the name of negotiation!"

"No, no!" Gao Jingzong shook his head like a rattle, and said, "I feel that Hu Guang's assassination of Tian Bao is unlikely to be successful. Otherwise, we will become Prince Dan envoy Jing Ke to assassinate the king. Not only will Jing Ke be defeated, but he will be angered." King Qin, why don't we instigate rebellion against Tian Bao?"

"Instigate rebellion aboveboard?" Ji Kan said, "How is this possible!"

"Success or not, it doesn't matter!" Gao Jingzong said: "Although I have never fought a war, I know that the most difficult thing to fight is the enemy from the heart, which is far more difficult to deal with than the enemy from the front. After the defeat on the first day, the Tian family army already knew the strengths and weaknesses of our dead army, and they dared not go out to fight again, and even had the illusion that the dead army was invincible. Under such circumstances, it is very difficult to adopt psychological tactics. It is easy to cause chaos within the Tian Family Army, if Tian Bao conforms to the morale of the army, it is fine to surrender directly, but if he insists on not surrendering, there will definitely be soldiers of the Tian Family Army begging for his head!"

Listening to Gao Jingzong's words, Ji Kan really didn't know how to describe Gao Jingzong.Gao Jingzong sometimes acted very nonchalantly, he didn't even understand the basic superficial, but he knew the essence of military training very well, and he was very aggressive.Ji Kan murmured secretly in his heart: "Could this be the so-called talent? A natural general and handsome talent?"

Seeing Ji Kan's hesitation, Gao Jingzong thought that Ji Kan disagreed with him, so he said with a smile: "If I fail, I will adopt your method again!"
