Chapter 191

In any era, national strength determines the strength of the army. It is not how large a number of troops can be.

In the era of cold weapons, ten or even more than 30 people were needed to arm a soldier. This is still the premise that the national productivity can be allocated. If the national administrative organ is incompetent enough, the productivity of 100 people may not be able to feed a soldier. (such as the end of Ming Dynasty)

The Yao family is a big family of the state of Zhao in Shijie, but the Yao family is not the ruler of the state of Zhao in Shijie. They want to teach Liu Yan a lesson. Maybe they have other political purposes, but as long as Yao Yizhong doesn't rebel, they are doomed not to pay too much.

Yao Jing was not the son Yao Yizhong valued too much. He didn't even get any official position in Zhao Guo, Shijie. He didn't look like a few sons Yao Yizhong appreciated. They were always generals or Prefects.

Yao Yimai's situation is similar to that of Yao Jing. The difference is that Yao Yimai finally ushered in the opportunity to change his fate and worked under Shi Bin's account. If Shi Bin's northern expedition is successful, Yao Yimai is expected to get a post. The starting point identity should be a general.

"This is my chance, my few opportunities!" Yao Jing is actually quite young. He doesn't have any youthful characteristics. On the contrary, he is a little approachable because he is unhappy compared with many brothers: "so my uncle must help me!"

The man called Uncle Wang Teng was originally a general of Xiyi Zhonglang... He was the highest military officer in Xichuan, Kunming and other places in the future. The reason why it is called "original" is that Wang Teng has no official position now and has become an opposition person. Not only the opposition, he was also classified as a rebel by Shi Hu and protected by the Yao family.

Similar to Wang Teng, there are many people defined as traitors by Shi Hu. As Shi Hu becomes more and more cruel, pays less and less attention to state affairs, and is happy to play with Meiji and build palaces, there are definitely more and more people who are about to become traitors.

Wang Teng must have excellent military ability to be a general of Xiyi Zhonglang. After all, whether Liu Yuanhan state (Liu Yao Zhao state) or Shijie Zhao state and the Jin State of Sima royal family are two different things. If you want to be an official outside the Jin State, you can't just have blood. If you don't have corresponding ability, you will die miserably.

"Be at ease. It's just a rising tribe." Wang Teng comforted his beard and said with ease: "in today's years, his prosperity is also vigorous, and his death is also sudden..." he was full of feelings: "what Liu Yan did has its own way to die."

Yao Jing suddenly remembered something a few days ago. They wanted to convene a nomadic tribe they met on the road. Unexpectedly, the tribal leader named Lian Chengbo was mentally ill. He refused to recruit and wanted to run. They surrounded and killed a group of people, including Lian Chengbo, who became part of many slave soldiers.

Liancheng Bo? It was the guy who had fought with the Ministry of Han. They found that they could not compete with the Ministry of Han. After several transactions, they left Changguang county. Liu Yan never paid attention to such a person again. Naturally, they were no longer associated with the Ministry of Han. Unexpectedly, they ran to Dong'an County and were forced to be strong by Yao Jing. After the defeat, they became slaves.

The troops commanded by Yao Jing have been growing along the way and have taken the initiative to vote. Like lianchengbo, many have been defeated and become slave armies. They have stopped and rested at the edge of Wenshui, and the number of the whole army has exceeded 70000.

"The family does not provide food support. Our logistics depends on the food raised by local families. We can only support the war for two months at most." Yao Jing said that the data is not accurate, and even there are big differences: "therefore, our war is mainly speed war."

Wang tengcai will not expose Yao Jing's miscalculation of baggage. The old general now has a more muddle through mentality. This time he went on an expedition with Yao Jing is more about changing people's feelings. Moreover, he really doesn't think how difficult it is to deal with the newly rising Han Dynasty.

In fact, food and fodder can support for about a month. With the increase of the number of people, the time that food can support will be shorter... It may also become more. That's Wang Teng's decision to break through some Jin people's strongholds in Dong'an County for safety. Let's take it as a response in case of accidents.

Yao Jing naturally agrees with Wang Teng. Even without Wang Teng's mention, he will choose several Jin family strongholds to attack. That is a real warm-up before the war. Are those Jin families innocent? Who cares so much? Those unlucky Jin people only blame them for not joining the army immediately when they find it. After joining the army, they accept exploitation safely.

As he got closer and closer to Beihai County, the number of people reached nearly 80000, and the Yao family army began to show their tusks. Yao Jing first picked some strongholds that looked easy to capture. Unexpectedly, he found that the Jin family in Dong'an County had a lot of grain, and began to fight one after another, even though it was the sound of fear among the families in the east line of Dong'an County, However, he even raised more food for the army for half a month.

"Yes, call on the four sides and let the surrounding families bring food. They will offer food for their lives." Wang Teng is saying a truth.

Jin people these days lack unity. They sweep the snow in front of their doors and are broken. They will be patient as long as they can live, including offering food, then tightening their belts, and even starvation. But to tell the truth, ordinary people will only starve to death, and those members of the family will not be hungry.

"In addition to food, we also need labor." Yao Jing didn't have the consciousness to do bad things at all. He said more naturally: "let them do it by themselves. If they don't cooperate, they will pick it out and destroy it. Anyway, the Jin people are like weeds. Killing a batch will soon produce a batch."

Wang Teng was a Jin man, but he didn't have any special feelings. He even nodded to agree with Yao Jing.

The Sheriff of Dong'an County had something to say, but he didn't dare to speak. He even found that Yao Jing was no longer just a simple way to borrow and recruit people, and began to destroy Dong'an County, which was not prosperous. As a sheriff, he still didn't dare to say much, just because Yao Jing had a father named Yao Yizhong!

Why did Yao Jing, who had no official position, take only 4000 Qiang people when he set out and become close to 80000 when he was close to Beihai county? Or because his father's name is Yao Yizhong. Facts have proved countless times that casting a good tire is far more advantageous than struggling for half a life, and this will never change.

Yao Jing's rampage was stopped by the rain. At that time, he happened to arrive at the nearest county to Beihai County, which is called Yingling.

Yingling was established in the early Western Han Dynasty. It was originally a marquis, led by the Marquis Liu zechu. Later, Yingling Marquis Liu zejin was king Langxie. Yingling was abandoned as a marquis and became an ordinary county.

No matter what the original history is, in the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, too many things have actually changed in the Central Plains. Yingling is a very dilapidated and almost uninhabited wasteland. Only the broken city walls and the broken walls in the city are telling the past history and the misfortune of war as a city.

To the north of Yingling is Pingshou, the capital of Beihai county. There is a river called irrigation water in the northeast. Crossing the irrigation water is the former Junzhen Guanting.

"What is the situation in Hanbu now?"

Yao Jing looked at the pouring rain outside the tent and his face was gloomy. He is now strong, probably the moment when his self-confidence is the most inflated. As a result, he has ushered in rainy weather?

Wang Teng seems relatively leisurely. Should his current role be deputy general or marching long history?

Most of them are temporarily assembled without clear job division. According to the customs of the Hu people, the representatives of each family command their own ethnic soldiers, that is, as leaders. The non family slave soldiers were supervised and commanded by someone specially designated by Yao Jing. Yao Jing himself had no official positions, so it was impossible to plan any positions according to the normal army.

"I've been hiding in Xiami. It seems that I don't intend to move." Wang Teng didn't know what he was chewing. He swallowed it and continued: "the army on the south side has been pulled out again."

"Still ignoring our connection?" Yao Jing's gloomy face is partly because the army in Gaomi County, nothing else, was ignored. For him who is in high spirits, it is simply unforgivable. He sneered and said, "even they will clean up at that time."

In fact, whether Yao Jing or Wang Teng, it should be said that their army has not received much information. For example, Xuzhou Chen Bing Donghai County, and then Gaomi County is being ravaged by the partial division of the Han Dynasty. Instead of entering Beihai County, Mr. Gong Tao and Fei Yan build camps in situ.

Yes, Yao Jing knows whether Mr. Gong Tao is a spy of Murong Yan state or something. Fei Yan can gather with Mr. Gong Tao. It is estimated that he is also from Murong Yan state, but so what? The state of Zhao in Shijie was established by the people of Jie nationality, but in addition to being a country, the state of Zhao in Shijie is also a country established by the Hu people. Although the Hu people continued to build the country, the concept of the country in their thoughts is still a fart.

There is no misdescription. There are many Hu people. Their heart is very simple. Tribes are the first, and tribes are more important than the state. If we really want to have a ranking, it is probably family, tribe, ethnic group and country, which is similar to the thought of the Jin people. The difference is that the ranking of the Jin people is family, ethnic group and country, which ranks the country in the most insignificant position.

"It's the rainy season. We'll wait here." Wang Teng originally called to eat raisins, but raisins are actually sticky. No wonder his chin moves so much when chewing: "anyway, I have to wait for Liu Zheng."

Yao Jing looked unhappy, but there was no way: "I hope Liu Zheng can understand how to be a man and don't find anything unhappy."

Wang Teng nodded his head carelessly, but he was thinking: "young people are full of energy. What's the matter even if they let Liu Zheng be the leader? It's the key to win if they don't admit it when things are done."
