V2.Chapter 799

Tang Yin learned a lot about the situation of Sichuan through the intelligence of Tianyan and earthnet and his own dark fire. There are many family armies in the state of Sichuan, ranging in scale from hundreds to thousands, and tens of thousands.

The establishment of each family army is strictly controlled by Xiao Xuan, king of Sichuan, and the court of the state of Sichuan. Sometimes, the court will provide some armaments and military pay, but the main military pay and food of the family army have to be borne by each family.

Among them, the most famous family army is Hong Jiajun. Hong Jiajun has a great reputation. First, he has strong combat power. Second, it is also related to the high reputation of their family leader Hong Yue. Hong Yuetian has the rank of marquis and the title of marquis in blood.

It can also be judged by his title. He is a strong general who is good at unifying troops and is brave and good at fighting. Hong Yuetian once helped Xiao Xuan, but Xiao Xuan didn't like him very much.

There are many tribes, large and small, in the south of Sichuan. Some tribes bow down to the state of Sichuan and pay tribute every year, while others do not listen to the control of the state of Sichuan. For those tribes that do not listen to the control of the state of Sichuan, the most common method adopted by the state of Sichuan is to send troops to fight.

Among the tribes in southern Sichuan, there is a larger one named Meng Xin, with more than 100000 soldiers. Originally, it was also a vassal to the state of Sichuan. However, with the growth of its strength, it gradually began to refuse to accept the constraints of the state of Sichuan and planned to unite with the surrounding tribes to compete with the state of Sichuan. At that time, Xiao Xuan was a young man in his early thirties. He had just taken the throne of the king of Sichuan. He was young and energetic. He also needed meritorious deeds to establish his authority. It happened that he decided to operate on Meng Xin.

Xiao Xuan ordered Lu Lian, a Veteran General of Sichuan at that time, to command 100000 Sichuan troops to attack Meng Xin.

However, the war did not go smoothly.

Meng Xin's territory is full of jungles, which is not suitable for the army to fight, and the large weapons that the Sichuan army is proud of are completely useless here. The 100000 Sichuan troops led by Lu Lian were deeply trapped in the dense forest, advancing slowly, and were often attacked by Meng Xinjun.

The war dragged on for three months, and the Sichuan army could not attack for a long time. What's more, the soldiers in front were deeply affected by the miasma in the forest. They fell ill on a large scale, and the establishment was less than 60% of the original. They could not advance or retreat, which had become a situation of riding a tiger.

At this time, Xiao Xuan couldn't sit still in the palace. This was his first foreign war after inheriting the throne. There was no loss.

Disregarding the opposition of the central officials, he personally unified 200000 troops and went to Mengxin. First, he reinforced Lu Lian's first department. At the same time, he also planned to work hard to destroy Mengxin, a rebellious and rebellious tribe.

But what Xiao Xuan didn't expect was that Meng Xin's encirclement of the Sichuan army rather than attack was actually a trick they used to attract the troops of the state of Sichuan to reinforce.

After the 200000 Sichuan troops led by Xiao Xuan arrived in Mengxin, the initial battle was still very smooth. The army was as powerful as a bamboo, which not only solved the danger of being trapped in Lu Lian, but also advanced to the core of Mengxin.

But just then, Meng Xinjun's counterattack suddenly started, and Meng Xinjun was not the only one attacking the Sichuan army, but also the coalition forces of six other tribes joined the war.

The tribal alliance has a favorable time, place and people, while the Sichuan army fights in different places and doesn't know how to fight jungle warfare at all.

It can be said that the Sichuan army fell into passivity from the beginning of the war. With the continuation of the battle, the Sichuan army was seriously reduced, and the logistics supply line was also cut off. More than 200000 Sichuan troops led by Xiao Xuan were trapped alive in the dense forests in Mengxin.

At the end of the war, the Sichuan army ran out of food and supplies, and the soldiers could only eat by killing war horses, digging grass roots and scraping bark. Even Xiao Xuan felt desperate. At this time, he regretted that he really shouldn't have been discouraged by his ministers at that time.

He was determined to die. The dignified king of Sichuan would rather die than be a prisoner of foreign barbarian tribes.

At this critical moment, the 20000 Hongjia army led by Hong Yuetian fell from heaven. The Sichuan army directly broke into Mengxin territory, tore a big hole in the siege of the tribal alliance, and then covered Xiao Xuan and the trapped Sichuan army to fight out and successfully escape.

In this battle, Hong Yuetian became famous in the first World War. His Marquis was also inherited from his ancestors and had been questioned before. After the war, no one dared to question that he was unworthy to be a marquis.

After Xiao Xuan was rescued by Hong Yuetian, there was also a short "honeymoon period" between the two.

At that time, Xiao Xuan almost tied Hong Yuetian to himself. He had to take him with him wherever he went. Hong Yuetian seemed to be the first popular man in front of the king of Sichuan.

However, in this way, he was naturally hated by others. Gradually, someone began to make a small report to Xiao Xuan, saying that Hong Yuetian now almost talked about the rescue and spoke to everyone, and his words often showed contempt and disrespect for the king. At first, Xiao Xuan didn't believe it, but even if one or two people said so, everyone could not help but believe it. At this time, Xiao Xuan was already very uncomfortable. After all, it was not a glorious thing for him.

At the same time, Hong Yuetian was dissatisfied with Xiao Xuan. After he rescued Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan was grateful to him and promised him at a banquet to expand his Hong family army to 100000 people.

At present, the establishment of the Hong family army is 50000, which has been expanded to 100000, which is twice as much as that at present. It can become the establishment of the Corps. This makes Hong Yuetian wake up with laughter when he sleeps. Originally, he was full of expectation, but after the banquet, Xiao Xuan didn't do it again. Hong Yuetian was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. Later, in the court hall, he didn't play less. He insinuated to remind Xiao Xuan that you haven't fulfilled your promise yet. When can our Hong family army be expanded?

Xiao Xuan certainly remembered this matter. Jun didn't joke. He also understood that he did say such a thing at the beginning. Now that Hong Yuetian has put forward it, he wanted to fulfill his wish and relax the establishment of Hong's army to 100000.

However, the civil and military ministers of the state of Sichuan unanimously opposed the matter. The establishment of the family army does not exceed 50000. If it is expanded to 100000, it will be a legion. Once you are dissatisfied with the imperial court, don't you have to fight against the imperial court?

Moreover, if this precedent is set, all families will ask for expansion. At that time, all families will support their soldiers and respect themselves. Can the imperial court still control them? Isn't the state of Sichuan going to follow in the footsteps of the Empire and become a fragmented regime?

After hearing the advice of the ministers, Xiao Xuan also realized the seriousness of the matter. What he had said was too impulsive and childish.

Later, when Hong Yuetian mentioned the expansion again, Xiao Xuan pretended to be confused and denied that he had said such words at the beginning, but also deliberately mentioned Hong Yuetian. The jokes after drinking need not be taken seriously.

His meaning was already obvious. He told Hong Yuetian not to mention it again, but Hong Yuetian didn't understand Xiao Xuan's mind. In his opinion, you Xiao Xuan is the monarch, and you have no jokes. Since you promised me to expand the number of Hong Jiajun, you have to do so.

In the court hall, he asked for an expansion, but Xiao Xuan refused once. Later, he changed to go to school every day. At first, Xiao Xuan could see his school. Later, he didn't even look at it and threw it aside.

At this time, Hong Yuetian was extremely dissatisfied with Xiao Xuan, and he also had one of the biggest shortcomings. He was greedy and talked a lot. He could say what he should not say as long as he drank a few drinks.

When drinking with others, he complained that Xiao Xuan didn't mean what he said, and even said that he didn't respect you.

There is no airtight wall in the world? Xiao Xuan was furious when he heard about it. Even if you Hong Yuetian saved my life, does the king owe you all his life? Have to put up with you all your life?

Soon, Xiao Xuan's transfer order came down and directly transferred Hong Yuetian out of the capital. It was not possible to transfer him to garrison the border, but he didn't let him stay under his own eyes.

After receiving the order from Xiao Xuan, Hong Yue was very angry in the weather. Don't you Xiao Xuan hate me and don't want to see me? Just leave. You just don't want to stay in the capital and suffer from this bird spirit!

After Hong Yuetian left the capital, he went to the local government, but he still resented the expansion. He himself added a servant army within the Hong family army. In fact, it's a matter of servants and attendants.

When he got to the place, he brought out all the dead prisoners and serious criminals in the surrounding counties, counties and cities and incorporated them into his servant army. In addition, he recruited mountain bandits, exiles and refugees. Gradually, the number of servants of the Hong family army reached tens of thousands. In this way, the apparent organization of the Hong family army was still 50000, but in fact it was close to 100000.

He acted so recklessly in the place that the wind naturally spread to Xiao Xuan's ears. He hated his teeth. If the king doesn't give it to you, you'll rob it yourself. Is there still the king in your eyes?

However, Xiao Xuan is not a tyrant after all. He still thinks about Hong Yuetian's saving his life for many years. He turns a blind eye to what he has done in the place. As long as Hong Yuetian doesn't do too much, he will bear it.

This is the complicated relationship between Xiao Xuan and Hong Yuetian. It is understandable that the Hong family army's armaments are dilapidated and its personnel are mixed. No matter how much salary a family, even the Marquis's family, can do business everywhere. Instead of relying on the imperial court to feed the 100000 people by itself, the army is also short of money and resources.

Tang Yin was somewhat surprised that Hong Jiajun's people appeared in Bianyang County of the state of Sichuan. Did the court of the state of Sichuan have a new decision to send Hong Yuetian to guard the border? If so, it is by no means good news for our own side.

Hong Yuetian is a failure in his life. He is a big mouth with an open mouth, but he can be called a genius in unifying the army in war.

Moreover, this man is an aggressive hawk. If the state of Sichuan gives the command of the border army to Hong Yuetian, it indicates that the state of Sichuan will use troops against the state of Feng. Tang Yin is not ready yet!
