Chapter 575 Helping You
The news of the victory quickly spread throughout Kao City.
The members of the local gentry who came to discuss the matter had different opinions, but overall they still held an encouraging attitude.
When Shao Xun was discussing matters with others, he also praised Liu Hezhu for his victory in the first battle.
But in private, he had a different attitude: "The time for the war was not chosen well. There is a lot of rain in summer and the water rises badly, which is not good for the cavalry, but it is good for the boat division. So If we continue to fight, it will seem like we are training troops for Sima Rui."
He has never looked down upon the Jiangdong regime.
The combat effectiveness of an army is determined by many factors. Supplies, training, equipment, tactics, morale, ethos, etc., may all have an impact.
When Cao Cao first raised his army in the past, the army could no longer be described as bad, but very bad, especially bad.
As far as bombing the camp every three days is concerned, even among the rabble, it is considered relatively unsophisticated.
Hit a Yellow Turban refugee, but Boss Cao’s soldiers didn’t dare to attack, so he was forced to take the lead.
To put it bluntly, with this kind of army, Wang Mi, who was just starting to rebel, could torture Cao Cao, at least his troops would not blow up the camp.
This is caused by poor training levels.
In the early days of the Eight Kings Rebellion, after many years of peace, many troops were in bad shape. Shao Xun even used Wushuang more than once at that time. If you ask him to use Wushuang again now, it is not impossible, but the risk has increased sharply.
To put it bluntly, after more than ten years of fighting in the north, the combat effectiveness has generally improved - not only Shao Xun's troops have improved, but also Shi Le, Wang Mi, Zhao Gu, Cao Yi, the Huns, etc. , all "passive" will increase accordingly, commonly known as "volume".
Even the tactics have been innovated to a certain extent!
The Southern War? Not too curly.
How good are the southern soldiers? Actually it's okay. Some wealthy private soldiers who are more capable in fighting have quite good combat effectiveness. For example, during the Qi Wannian Rebellion in Guanzhong, Zhou Chu killed more than 10,000 Guanzhong rebels with 5,000 soldiers.
Putting down the rebellions of Zhang Chang, Shi Bing, and Feng Yun, as well as the rebellions of Chen Min and Du Tao, relied on the private soldiers of the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River.
They have combat experience, at least they have fought effectively in battles involving less than ten thousand people. After all, this was an era when barbarians existed widely. Historically, until the end of the Tang Dynasty, barbarian chiefs were recruited to official positions in Jiangxi.
Southern soldiers often need to fight barbarians and have certain military qualities, but the scale of the battles is generally small.
Generally speaking, the combat effectiveness of the southern soldiers was not as good as that of the Huns, especially because they lacked experience in large-scale battles.
For now, the soldiers with more than 10,000 people in the entire South who have the most combat experience are undoubtedly the Jingzhou soldiers trained by Liu Hong and Tao Kan. The long-term counter-insurgency war has also given them considerable combat experience. , and after careful reorganization, the combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou Army is second to none in the south.
This is Shao Xun's judgment based on the current situation in the south.
As for Zu Ti’s army, he thought it was not as good as the Jingzhou army. To fight them, we must strive for a large-scale battle with more than ten thousand people. The larger the scale, the less able the southern soldiers are to adapt and the easier it is to be defeated.
But what is the current war situation in Xuzhou...
"If we don't send troops now, the two counties of Donghai and Lanling held by Mi Zihui may not be able to be saved. The later we send troops, the more dangerous it will be." Pei Lingyan He stepped forward, adjusted Shao Xun's robe, and said softly: "If we go south again after the autumn harvest, Pengcheng may not be able to be saved. When the Xun group sees that the situation is not right, they may half-heartedly surrender to Zuti."
"Forget it." Shao Xun said: "At least the first battle didn't embarrass me. Then it depends on Xi Daohui's ability. I want to see how he can defeat Pi."
"Even if it's a temporary defeat Don't go down to Xiapi." Pei Lingyan hugged Shao Xun's waist, looked into his eyes, and said, "With such an early victory, Zu Ti will be frightened and use his troops prudently, but the battle line is maintained. , It’s Hebei.”
“What’s the benefit of going north to them? If they need land and wealth, they can just open up wasteland in the south of the Yangtze River. If they need to rule the world, then should they move the capital to Luoyang? ? They won't be willing."
"If you push too hard, Mr. Lang, you will make them unite and give Sima Rui money, soldiers and horses, and support him in going north. You will start to quarrel by yourself. If you stay in one corner or divide yourself into one side, you will not be able to achieve great things.”
"Hua Nu, you have seen through all the princes in Jiangdong." Shao Xun said with a smile.
"I'm not thinking about you yet." Pei Lingyan looked at him and said.
Shao Xun hugged her and whispered: "Our child must be as smart as you."
After speaking, he gently stroked her belly and said: "After working hard for a month, I will She's not already pregnant."
Pei Lingyan blushed and said, "You know how to torment me."
Shao Xun leaned into her ear and whispered something.
Pei Lingyan rolled her eyes at him.
Shao Xun chuckled and left the bedroom.
"Don't be careless when you return to Luoyang." Pei Lingyan reminded.
Shao Xun stopped, turned around and said, "Even if it's ugly, I won't give anyone a chance, don't worry."
******
Shao Xun quickly left Kaocheng and drove to the manor where the shogunate was located.
He is the military chief of the Yanzhou shogunate, so of course he has his own government office.
As soon as they arrived, the two military counselors Jiu Lu Qiu Chong and Bian Dun immediately stepped forward to salute.
After returning the gift, Shao Xun entered the room and said in surprise: "Why are you here?"
Yu Wenjun first looked at him with a worried look. After seeing that her husband did not blame her, he immediately Pounced up.
Lu Qiuchong and Bian Dun had already left, chatting with Yu Chen outside.
In the room, Shao Xun felt Yu Wenjun hugging him tightly, and his delicate body was trembling slightly.
The scumbag man couldn't hold himself any longer. He gently hugged his beloved wife and sat down, saying: "Hebei Ding, the situation is complicated and we cannot leave for a moment. You don't know how shameless those capricious people are. , As long as you show a little bit of weakness, I will give you a clue right away.”
“It is also quite difficult in Xuzhou. Princess Donghai and Sima Jingwen have an old relationship. I have thought about it and see what can be done. We cannot first stabilize the south and concentrate on dealing with the Huns.”
"Yanzhou has raised 800,000 hu of grain and grass. I compiled the list of grain recipients, visited them one by one, and encouraged them a lot. Alas, it's so annoying with so many things." "There are still many people with both heads and rats in Henan. Senior..."
"I didn't ask you." Yu Wenjun said softly in his arms.
Shao Xun was stunned and looked carefully at his beloved wife whom he had not seen for a long time.
Yu Wenjun, why - have you become more powerful?
"I just miss you a little, and my daughter misses you too." Yu Wenjun raised his head and looked at Shao Xun.
Shao Xun was a little overwhelmed and even began to reflect for a moment.
Playing tricks with him often has no good results, but Yu Wenjun's straight-ball style of play and the arms that still hug him tightly have made the scumbag defeated.
"I..." Shao Xun gently stroked her face.
Yu Wenjun raised his face and looked at him with wide eyes.
When she first got married, her eyes were full of joy, admiration and sweetness, but now there is a hint of resentment and even sadness.
Shao Xun turned his head and subconsciously hugged his wife.
"The manor in Runan has been built and 6,500 households have been resettled." Yu Wenjun said: "The Yu family, Yin family, and Guanqiu family collected the money. We originally planned to use Yingchuan, Ru Nan and Nandun Zhuang farmland are profitable, but if you want to fight, forget it. I sent someone to make a plan, and together with Guangcheng Zecaiguan Erzhuang and Liangxian Lvliuyuan, we can allocate 500,000 dendrobium of grain. It’s already set sail.”
Shao Xun couldn’t help but look at his wife again.
How did you become so capable after not seeing him for a year?
The newly built manor in Runan is located in northern Yichun County. The 6,500 households it will house are the Hu Han people that Shao Xun redeemed from Anping.
As for the farmlands in Yingchuan, Runan, and Nandun mentioned by Yu Wenjun, they were her dowry, with a large output every year.
Actually, she is also a little rich woman. Uncle Yu Zhi was particularly good at amassing money, but he was also very generous when preparing a dowry for his niece. In the end, it was converted into farm land, and Yu Wenjun currently sends people to take care of it.
Of course, he just listened to this and got over it.
However, in just one year, his wife has become more mature and capable, which makes him a little uncomfortable.
Where is the little fan girl from before?
What about the clingy, ignorant person who used to throw herself into his arms when she saw him?
What about the girl who used to love to smile so much that her eyes were bent like little crescent moons?
Shao Xun felt a little disappointed.
"I don't have to go to war this year, so I can spend more time at home." Shao Xun didn't know why he said this.
"Yes." Yu Wenjun changed into a comfortable position in his arms.
"I'm going to Luoyang in a while. Please come with me. The houses in the city have been unoccupied for a long time."
"Yes."
" I will go to Hebei in the second half of the year. You are Mrs. Chen Guo, so you should go with me."
Yu Wenjun finally sat up, put his arms around Shao Xun's neck, and said with a smile on his face. "Husband, I really missed you this year when you were away at war."
Shao Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Is he afraid of Yu Wenjun? Of course not.
What can frighten a man who has been unparalleled among the armies?
Is he afraid of the Yu family? Of course not.
To put it bluntly, doesn’t my father-in-law know that he got involved with the Wang sisters at Tongque Terrace? But Yu Chen didn't dare to mention it for fear that Shao Xun would be unhappy.
The only person who can cure Shao Thief is this nineteen-year-old girl who thinks of him wholeheartedly.
Because what he owes her has nothing to do with interests, just love.
"I heard that your husband won the victory in Xuzhou?" Yu Wenjun's mood was obviously much better. After getting up from his arms, he looked at his husband's military office curiously.
The next door should be one of the residences of Princess Donghai, right? There is actually a small door, where does it lead to?
"Oh? What did Xuchang say?" Shao Xun came over and hugged his wife, covering her sight.
Yu Wenjun rubbed his arms for a while, then sniffed lightly, and said: "The Xun family has sent people eastward to Xuzhou to persuade Xun Taizhang to offer Pengcheng."
"If the Xun family doesn't do this, I'm going to 'remind' them." Shao Xun said, "Someone from Yanzhou has returned to Xuzhou, Liu Chou and He Sui. I'm going to let Sima Rui see who's talking about it this time. Xuzhou is very useful. Well, this is what I have been busy with in Kaocheng these days, weighing and giving many instructions."
Yu Wenjun pinched him lightly.
Shao Xun breathed a sigh of relief again, feeling secretly happy.
"On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, I summoned the scholars and took my family on a trip." Yu Wenjun said again: "I let it out that my husband wanted to raise food. My father told me yesterday that he had raised sixty More than 10,000 hu of dendrobium are starting to be harvested. After the wheat harvest, we should be able to raise 800,000 hu of dendrobium. "It's really helped me a lot," Shao Xun said happily.
"I am no worse than others." Yu Wenjun buried his head in his arms and said in an inaudible voice: "I want to help you."
Shao Thief's "Chinese Army Camp" "Totally defeated.
There were heavy footsteps outside the door and a few coughs.
Yu Chen came, followed by Yu Min, Yu Gun and others.
