Chapter 262

Huan Wen really thought in detail. He could see that Liu Yan's ambition was not only a separatist regime, but also the capital of the Han Dynasty. So maybe there is something he can benefit from?

Aristocratic families will not have true loyalty to a certain regime. What they are loyal to is only family interests. In that way, they will be loyal to who can give them better development. This is the core that will not change after the emergence of the aristocratic family. What Huan Wen needs to weigh is that the Huan family will gain more benefits in the Eastern Jin Dynasty or in the Han Dynasty.

Three thousand cavalry troops set out again. They had been informed before they started. Once the war started, it would be a high-intensity war.

The so-called high intensity does not simply mean the severity of the war, but more generally refers to the time of the whole war, the affected areas, the participants, and many other aspects.

Li Kuang said before that the high-intensity war that can support up to seven days is limited by horses rather than people.

After being explained, Huan Wen also thought it reasonable. People can stick to it by will. If the horse loses fat to a certain extent, it is no longer suitable for riding and fighting. That's why the Hu people of all dynasties always go south to the border in autumn. That's because both war horses, cattle and sheep need to get fat. Too much fat is good for people or not, but for animals, it is the guarantee of physique. Not to mention adding more meat, the physical strength of the war horse itself comes from the consumption of fat.

Some war horses are rough, and there is no problem how to raise them. For example, the Hu people use a lot of short legged horses, but they can only be used as light horses, and the quality is definitely not superior.

"The Han Army's problem is the same as ours. Seeking better horses has formed a constraint."

"The quantity can't be compared, it can only rely on quality!"

The problem is that there are two different starting points for farmers to treat war horses and nomads to treat war horses, resulting in different development ideas.

The movement of tens of thousands of war horses stepping together will not be small. War horses of such a scale can never do anything secretive. It is difficult to avoid being found while they act. The war between scouts occurs every day.

It can often be seen that the two sides are chasing or fighting under the eyes of the army.

Huan Wen is very concerned about the war of the Han Army's scouts. After all, the Scout can reflect the quality of an army. If the Scout fails, don't expect the troops to be so elite. The reason is that the Scout of a unit is absolutely the cream of the force, not everyone can act as a scout.

"The war damage ratio is very good, reaching one to eight."

"This is why Wen dares to attack directly alone!"

They were less than thirty miles away from the enemy they found and went straight towards the baggage team.

The terrain here is relatively flat. Although there are mountains, the mountain elevation is not high, and there are no mountains. This terrain is at most Tibetan, and Huanwen will not be foolish enough to chase the enemy to the mountains with cavalry.

Niu Du is really a nobody at the national level, but if he is in Lanling County, he should have a head and a face. He is a code school in Lanling county and concurrently serves as a lieutenant to join the army. The so-called code school is actually a surveillance officer. He is not a nine grade officer. Joining the army is a kind of staff. Depending on who he assists, he belongs to several grade officials.

In the Han Dynasty or Cao Wei Dynasty, the position of a county's capital lieutenant was very high, but after the two Jin Dynasties, he belonged to a lower middle official position, but don't forget that this was in the state of Zhao in Shijie, a country that didn't look at the official position but looked at the actual strength.

Niu Du is a mixture of DI and Qiang people. In fact, it should be called Tiefu. After all, Tiefu also means mixed blood in addition to calling "son-in-law" or "son-in-law of Han nationality".

"Has come?"

"Yes."

"Come straight?"

"Yes."

Niu Du didn't know what to say. Yes, he was ordered to intercept an infiltrating Han Army, clearly knew the number and goal, and knew that once he made contributions in this situation, he would make great achievements.

In order to prosper, Niu Du used all his contacts, including the private soldiers of his family, to put together an army of about 5000 people. But his army was only a bait to attract the Han Army and create opportunities for higher dignitaries.

The big man's name is Wang Ji. Don't get me wrong. It's not the Wang Ji from Donglai qucheng and the calligraphy Boyu in the Cao Wei period. It's the Wang Ji from the Wang family of Qinghe. Wang Ji is one of Shi Zun's trusted generals. He is still related to Wang Luan.

Qinghe belongs to Jizhou, where many big families, aristocratic families and door lords were born, but that was later.

Aristocratic families or door lords only appeared in the relatives before, because Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu became the emperor by relying on powerful families. The Eastern Han Dynasty actually belonged to powerful family politics. Naturally, aristocratic families appeared, such as Deng Yu family, Geng Yan family, Liang Tong family, Dou Rong family, Ma Yuan family and Yin family, which directly helped Liu Xiu become the emperor, but only yuan family could be called door Lords. There's nothing wrong with it. It's the yuan family of the fourth Sangong, the family of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and the rest are just aristocratic families.

The real common practice of aristocratic families and door lords began in the period of Wuhu Luanhua (also known as the northern and Southern Dynasties), and then appeared in the five surnames and seven major families in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. They had the following scenery by relying on the rise of various conceivable or unexpected means during the alien invasion of the Central Plains and the first reduction of the Central Plains to the rule of the Hu people.

At present, there are many aristocratic families active in the south of the Yangtze River, led by Yu, Huan, Wang and Xie, while Zhang, Wang and Guo are the first in the Central Plains.

If you look at the official position table of the state of Zhao in Shijie, you will be surprised to find that the official positions occupied by Zhang, Wang and Guo approached two-thirds of the whole state of Zhao in Shijie, whether in the shile era or the Shi Hu era.

It has to be said that the Wang family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Wang family in the state of Zhao in Shijie actually belong to the same clan relationship.

In fact, it was a problem left over from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, every family would send their children to work under a certain prince. According to the aristocratic family's own words, it was to bet separately. In this way, no matter which vassal is finally successful, one family can develop. It will not be like the whole family betting on one vassal. When the vassal is finished, the family will be doomed.

"Really?" Wang Ji looks quite dignified. He may be worried about what causes insomnia. He has big bags under his eyes and dark circles: "always pay attention to the trend." After a pause for a while, he thought of something and added: "let Niu du... Abandon those people who have been summoned when necessary."

At this time, the Jin people of the whole Shijie Zhao state need to worry. Shi Hu is really crazy. He even listens to the nonsense of a Salmonella monk. The most absurd thing is that he really starts cleaning the Jin people.

To tell the truth, if Shi Hu only cleans the Jin people at the bottom, many jin people with official status are actually indifferent. After all, most aristocratic families have not regarded non gentry... Such as mud legs as people since the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period. At least they don't think those guys are the same as themselves.

[the heavenly king is crazy, so is Shi Xuan.] Wang Ji's family is big enough to know what will happen. It's also time to start doing what Cao Wei, Sun Wu and Liu Shu did: [the Wang family has today's foundation, in addition to enough family inheritance, it's still because they stand in the right team.]

Yes, the Wang family has been standing in line and investing separately since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The previous main clan was not their own. They were the highest one after the family opened branches and leaves, so they would become the Wang family.

Now it's really time to stand in line again, not only because there are signs of debauchery in the Central Plains again, but also because Shi Hu persecuted the Jin people at the bottom and middle levels, and began to guard against and hurt the Jin people at the top.

[ran min's family children have taken refuge in the past. Ran Min has controlled several important passes and can form a separatist regime for at least decades?] Wang Ji looked at the papers on the table, and one of them was spread out, which wrote some stories about Liu Yan: [it's strange that Liu Yan hasn't responded to the "Three Kings alliance" so far.]

Because Liu Yan did not give any response, the three kings alliance has a tendency to develop into a joke. For such a thing, ran min sent his important officials out of the customs. They are on the way to find Liu Yan.

No matter what is written in the call to arms, in fact, Liu Yan has now become the key core. Liu Yan led the army to fight with the main force of Zhao Jun in Shijie, and the war has no results... At least before the results of this encirclement and suppression, most people will only focus on Liu Yan first.

More realistically, the encirclement and suppression campaign has created a gap in fact. Deng Heng in Yanzhou has been defeated. The Han army attacked Xuzhou southward, and the Jin army attacked across the river. Seeing that a battle at the battle level will break out again.

Only when the new battle is over, those who pay attention to the dynamics will come to a conclusion, which is what Wang Ji's family is waiting for. The difference is that they are loyal to Shi Zun, and Shi Zun's fief Pengcheng is too close to the battlefield, and the Han Army invades Pengcheng, which is tantamount to forcing the Wang family from a bystander to an actual participant.

[Liu Yan confronts Wang Luan with a force disadvantage. After several small-scale tests, the Han army is indeed sharp enough.] Wang Ji turns his eyes to the wall next to him, where there is a mountain map. He simply walks over and keeps moving his eyes around Donghai County: [30000 vs. 70000, what gives Liu Yan such confidence? Jin army or...]

Unlike some who did not understand the facts, the generals of the state of Zhao in Shijie still paid more attention to the Jin army, because they knew that if the Jin army was really incompetent, the location of repeated wars would not be north of the Yangtze River, but south of the Yangtze River.

[no, although the Yu family is strong, it is impossible for the Yu family to make every effort to attack the north again after Yu Liang.]
