Remember [ ] in a second to provide you with wonderful novel reading.

Compared with the last time Xun Zhen saw him, Le Jin had lost weight again, with high cheekbones, but full of energy, bright eyes, and very capable.

In Xiapi, Le Jin is a clean and honest corporal. His political achievements are not among the best, but he does a good job. He is determined to make contributions to the battlefield. In order to maintain a good physical condition, even in the middle of winter, he still takes a cold shower every morning. When he is not busy, he often reads the art of war and does not stop practicing martial arts.

Now, he finally had the opportunity to return to the battlefield.

Hearing that Xunzhen had summoned him, Le Jin quickly changed into his official uniform, put on his seal, left the residence, and hurried to the prefecture.

Taking advantage of the slack farming, it is also "relief for work", Tan Ling Chen Jiao organized some poor people, and just started a "municipal project" to repair the inner walls and streets in the county. , the road that has just been renovated is solid and clean, Le Jin stepped on it, and his steps were loud. According to Xunzhen's order, sparsely arranged pines and cypresses were planted on both sides of the road, mixed with flowers and plants. In the middle of winter, the trees were still green, and walking among them was quite pleasant. However, Le Jin was not in the mood to watch the street scene at this time. As he walked, he guessed what Xun Zhen was thinking.

It has been confirmed that Xun Zhen called him to Tan this time, and the purpose must be to let him lead the army again. This can be roughly judged from the content of the letter to him by Xun Zhen. His letter almost made it clear.

Xuankang and Le Jin both belonged to the old people of Xixiang, and they had a good relationship in the past. Now, one of them is in power in the shogunate, and the other is in charge of the big county. It will mention military and political secrets, but it is normal for Xuankang to give him a little bit of advice on issues involving Le Jin's future, so that he prepares early.

From the moment Le Jin learned about it, he started to prepare excitedly. Since Xun Zhen was going to let him lead the troops again, then there must be a major external military operation. The map of Qingyan Xu Yuyang's area was almost ruined, and he already had a rough idea in his heart.

On the other side of Jiujiang and Fuling, after Liu Ye scare Fuling away, he went to talk about Zheng Bao. Although Zheng Bao expressed his willingness to obey Jiujiang, in fact, Zheng Bao did not accept it. The local people, who have the Great Lake as a proof and have more than 10,000 tribes, still separate Chaohu Lake, secretly communicate with Yangzhou Governor Chen Wen, and hand over the strong men and nobles in Fuling and Lujiang. Obviously, they want to take advantage of external forces to consolidate themselves. Xun Chen of Jiujiang is really yang and yin, and it is reasonable to say that this should be a direction for military use.

However, at present, the navy has not yet been completed. Even if it wants to attack Zheng Bao, Xuzhou is still insufficient. Furthermore, even if the navy has been completed, the current navy should be the current captain of the boat. Lu Su, Gan Ning, Sima Jiang Qin and other Jianghuai people who were in charge of construction were in charge of the construction. It was not his turn to be led by a northerner who did not understand water warfare and was not even good at water.

So first of all, this external military operation should not happen in the direction of Yangzhou.

In Yuzhou, Lu Bu was aggressive, and Xiapi was next to Pei. It seemed that this should be the most likely area to send him to sit in town - if Yuzhou was not Sun Jian's territory. Yuzhou is Sun Jian's territory, Xuzhou is only a temporary cooperation and assistance, the last time Xu Xian was sent, it was because Sun Jian was not in the state, and now that Sun Jian has returned, it is no longer appropriate for Xuzhou to send important generals to Yu.

It is next, and it will not be in the direction of Yuzhou.

In this way, it can only be Qingzhou or Yanzhou.

Xun Cheng took the post of Taishan prefect as a side general, and now Langya and Taishan are his defense areas. These two counties are north of Qingzhou. Obviously, Xun Cheng's next combat mission must be Qingzhou. Therefore, Nor will it be in the direction of Qingzhou.

Only Yanzhou.

Just as Xun Zhen thought about it, Le Jin also deeply realized the two important advantages of running the Yanzhou battlefield by himself: he is a native of Yanzhou; Jiang Hu and Chen Bao, who are currently stationed in Rencheng and Dongping, are old people from Xixiang. Familiar with them, it is beneficial to his command to fight.

Although the battlefield was set, Le Jin could not guess the specific direction of the battle.

Until he entered the prefecture, he was still thinking: should we fight Jibei or Rencheng?

If you fight Jibei, it will be a medium-scale battle; if you fight Rencheng, it will most likely be a large-scale battle.

Because as far as the current situation in Yanzhou is concerned, losing a Jibei will not harm its core interests, it is just a corner. Although Rencheng occupies a small area, it only governs three counties, with a radius of fifty miles. But one, there is the danger of Kangfu, occupying this place, Yandong will no longer be dangerous, and the army will move westward. Shanyang, Jiyin, Chenliu, and Dongjun are not far away, and are close to Shanyang. From Kangfu to the southwest, less than 200 miles away is Jiyin's county seat, Dingtao, and then from Dingtao to the west and southwest. Baili is divided into the boundaries of Dongjun and Chenliujun. In summary, Renchengzhen is the key to Yandong and its gate of life.

Therefore, if the specific direction of the use of troops this time is Rencheng, it will be more than just a battle. The battle, in other words, is the state battle between Xu and Yan states.

Le Jin handed the sword to the guards outside the hall, took off his shoes, climbed to the hall, walked a few steps, and bowed down.

Xun Zhen was reading the recent military training report submitted by the shogunate, and heard Dian Wei, who was on duty outside the hall, reported that Le Jin had come to see him, put down the papers, smiled and watched Le entered the hall. rise.

Le Jin was short, more than a head shorter than Xun Zhen, Xun Zhen looked down, looked at him, and asked, "Wen Qian, why are you so thin again?" He smiled, "The money I gave you is to give What you use, you need three meals a day, and eat more meat. If you don’t eat strong, how can you lead troops to fight?”

Le Jin is honest. The last time Xunzhen visited the state, he went to Xiapi and went to Le Jin's house. He saw his wife Jing Chai in cloth skirt, and watched her meal. None, sighed that he was poor, and rewarded him with 100,000 yuan and silk.

Le Jin bent down, folded his hands, stretched out his belly, and said respectfully, "My lord will reward you~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Jin dare not say no, but he is a vulgar man in his hometown. I want to eat something good, but I don’t know what to eat.”

Xun Zhen laughed, took his hand, brought him to the front of the table, let him sit down, and then returned to his own seat.

The clerk brought hot soup and put it on Le Jin's case.

Xun Zhen said kindly: "It's cold, let's drink some hot soup first to warm up your body."

Le Jin picked up the soup bowl, not afraid of the heat, and drank it very boldly.

Xun Zhen smiled and said: "Wen Qian, you have been in charge of the county for almost a year. In the county, you have a good reputation and have a good reputation. You often deal with Confucian scholars, but Guanqing drinks soup, but he is still as proud as when he was in the army. ."

Le Jin put down the soup bowl gently and replied, "Since the lord, Jin has never left the army. Although he manages the county now, old habits are hard to get rid of."

"Okay, it's hard to get rid of an old habit! This old habit of Qing is very good, and I don't need to get rid of it in the future!" Ren?" Mobile users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
