sweeping the world

Chapter 191 On the Criticality of Correct Reincarnation

In any era, national strength determines the strength of the army. It does not mean that a large number of troops can be obtained by having a large number of people.

In the era of cold weapons, ten or even more than 30 people are needed to arm a soldier, and this is the premise of being able to deploy national productivity. If the national administrative organization is incompetent enough, the productivity of a hundred people is not necessarily able to feed a soldier. (such as the end of Ming Dynasty)
The Yao family is a powerful family in the Shijie Zhao country, but the Yao family is not the ruler of the Shijie Zhao country. They want to teach Liu Yan a lesson, and they may have other political goals, but as long as Yao Yizhong does not rebel, they are destined not to pay too much. many.

Yao Jing was not the heir that Yao Yizhong valued, and he did not even get any official position in the Shijie Zhao Kingdom. It was not like the several heirs that Yao Yizhong admired who were always generals or county guards.

Yao Yimai's situation is similar to Yao Jing's, the difference is that Yao Yimai finally has the opportunity to change his destiny and goes to work under Shi Bin's account.If Shi Bin's Northern Expedition goes well this time, Yao Yimai will probably get a half-job, and his starting position should be a general.

"This time is my chance, one of the few chances I have!" Yao Jing is actually quite young, and he doesn't have any youthful qualities. Instead, he seems a little approachable because he is not as good as many brothers: "So Uncle must help me!"

The man called uncle was named Wang Teng, who was originally a general of Xiyi Zhonglang... who was the highest military officer in Xichuan, Kunming and other places in later generations.The reason why it is called "original" is because Wang Teng no longer has an official position and has become an opposition figure.Not only was he an opposition figure, he was also classified as a rebel general by Shi Hu and received protection from the Yao family.

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

Wang Teng is able to achieve the post of Xiyi Zhonglang, and he must have excellent military ability. After all, no matter whether Liu Yuan Han Kingdom (Liu Yao Zhao Kingdom) or Shijie Zhao Kingdom and Jin Kingdom of the Sima Royal Family are two different things, if you want to To be an official in a place other than Jin State, it is not enough to have only blood, and if you do not have the corresponding ability, you will die a miserable death.

"Don't worry, it's just a newly rising tribe." Wang Teng caressed his beard, and said with ease: "In today's years, its prosperity is also booming, and its death is also sudden...", talking full Full of emotion: "Liu Yan's actions have their own way of death."

Yao Jing suddenly remembered an incident a few days ago. They were going to call a nomadic tribe they met on the road. They didn't expect that the leader of the tribe named Lian Chengbo was out of his mind. He refused to be recruited and wanted to run away, surrounded by them After killing a group, those people including Lian Chengbo became part of many slave soldiers.

Uncle Liancheng?It was the guy who had fought with the Han tribe. They found that they couldn't fight against the Han tribe, so they left Changguang County after several transactions. Liu Yan never paid attention to such a person again, and naturally they never fought with the Han tribe again. The department has been related.Unexpectedly, they ran to Dong'an County, where Yao Jing forcibly raped them, and they were defeated and turned into slaves.

The troops led by Yao Jing continued to grow along the way, and they took the initiative to vote. Many of them were defeated and became slaves like Lian Chengbo. It has exceeded 7 people.

"The family did not provide food and fodder support. Our logistics relies on the food raised by the local families, which can only support two months of war at most." The data Yao Jing said was not accurate, and there was even a big discrepancy: "Therefore Our battle is about speed.”

Wang Teng would not expose Yao Jing's miscalculation of the luggage.This old general is more of a dawdling mentality now, and this time he went out with Yao Jing more to exchange favors, and moreover, he really didn't think that the newly-emerged Han tribe was so difficult to deal with.

In fact, the food supply can only be supplied for about a month. As the number of people increases, the shorter the time that the food can be sustained... it may also increase. That is because Wang Teng decided to break some local Jin people's villages in Dong'an County for safety reasons. Let's do some looting and treat it as a precautionary measure.

Yao Jing naturally agreed with Wang Teng's opinion. Even without Wang Teng's mention, he would choose a few Jin family's strongholds to attack.Who cares so much, those unlucky Jin people can only blame them for not surrendering immediately when they found the army appeared, and accepting exploitation safely after surrendering.

As they got closer and closer to Beihai County, the number of people gathered close to [-], and Yao's army began to show their fangs. Yao Jing first picked some cities that looked easy to capture, and unexpectedly discovered that the Jin family in Dong'an County had a lot of people. With less food stored, they started to attack one after another more and more uncontrollably. Although the families on the east line of Dong'an County were alarmed, they actually raised more food for the army to spend for half a month.

"Okay, spread the word, let the surrounding families bring food, and they will donate food for their lives." Wang Teng was saying a truth.

The people of Jin these days lack unity. They sweep the snow in front of their doors and are defeated one by one. As long as they can survive, they will try their best to endure. This includes offering food, and then their own families tighten their belts, and even starve to death. .But there is a big truth to be said, it is only ordinary people who will starve to death, and the members of those families will not be hungry.

"In addition to food, we also need labor." Yao Jing had no consciousness of doing bad things at all, and said more matter-of-factly: "Let them figure it out by themselves. If they don't cooperate, they will be singled out and destroyed. Anyway, Jin people are just like weeds." , killing a batch will soon give birth to a batch.”

Wang Teng is from Jin Dynasty, but he didn't have any special feelings, and even nodded in agreement with Yao Jing's statement.

The sheriff of Dong'an County had something to say, but he didn't dare to say it. Even after he found out that Yao Jing was no longer simply using excuses and recruiting people, he began to destroy Dong'an County, which was not prosperous in the first place. As a sheriff, he still didn't dare Too much to say, it's all because Yao Jing has a father named Yao Yizhong!

Why did Yao Jing, who didn't have any official position, only bring four thousand Qiang people with him when he set out, but when he approached Beihai County, he could become nearly [-]?It's also because his father's name is Yao Yizhong.Facts have proved countless times that casting a good pregnancy is far more advantageous than struggling half your life, and this will never change.

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

Yingling was established in the early Western Han Dynasty. It was originally a marquis state, and the prince Liu Zechu led it. Later, Liu Zejin, the marquis of Yingling, became the king of Langya. Yingling was abandoned as a marquis and became an ordinary county.

Regardless of its original history, by the Sixteen Kingdoms period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, too many things had actually changed in the Central Plains. Yingling was an extremely dilapidated, almost desolate place without human habitation, with only the broken city walls and the city. The ruins inside tell the story of the past and the misfortune of being a city that suffered from war.

To the north of Yingling is Pingshou, the capital of Beihai County. On the northeast side, there is a river called Jishui. Crossing Jishui is the former military town of Chuting.

"What's the current situation in the Han Dynasty?"

Yao Jing watched the heavy rain pouring outside the tent with a gloomy expression.He is now strong and strong, probably at the moment when his self-confidence is the most inflated, but it turns out that it is raining?
Wang Teng seemed relatively leisurely. Speaking of which, should his current role be a lieutenant general or a marching commander?

Most of their troops were gathered temporarily, and there was no clear division of positions. According to the custom of the Hu people, the representatives of each family commanded their own clan soldiers, that is, they acted as leaders.Non-family slave soldiers were supervised and commanded by Yao Jing. Yao Jing himself had no official position, so it was impossible to plan any positions according to the normal army.

"It's been nestled in the lower den, and it seems that I don't plan to move." Wang Teng chewed something in his mouth, swallowed it, and continued: "The army on the south side has moved again."

"Are you still ignoring our connection?" Yao Jing's gloomy face was partly because the troops in Gaomi County were ignored, which was unforgivable for him who was in high spirits.He sneered a few times: "At that time, they will be cleaned up together."

In fact, regardless of whether it is Yao Jing or Wang Teng, it should be said that their troops have not received intelligence yet, which is quite a lot of intelligence. For example, Xuzhou Chen Bing Donghai County, and Gaomi County is being ravaged by Han troops. Mr. Gong Tao and Instead of marching into Beihai County, Feiyan built a camp on the spot.

Yes, Yao Jing knew that Mr. Gong Tao was a spy of Murong Yanguo or something, Fei Yan was probably from Murong Yanguo when he got together with Mr. Gong Tao, but so what?The Shijie State of Zhao was founded by the Jie tribe, but besides being a country, the State of Shijie Zhao was also a country founded by the Hu people. Although the Hu people successively established the country, the concept of the country in their minds is still a fart.

There is no mistake in describing it. Hu people are very simple in their hearts. The tribe is the leader, and the tribe is more important than the country.If you really want to have a ranking, it is probably family, tribe, ethnic group, country, but it is similar to the thinking of the Jin people. The difference is that the ranking of the Jin people is family, clan, and country. They all rank the country in the most irrelevant position. .

"It's the rainy season now, let's wait here." Wang Teng originally asked to eat raisins, and raisins are actually sticky to the mouth. No wonder his jaw moves so much when chewing: "We have to wait for Liu Zheng anyway."

Yao Jing had a displeased expression on his face, but there was nothing he could do: "I hope Liu Zheng can understand how to be a man, and don't find anything unpleasant."

Wang Teng nodded indiscriminately, but he was thinking in his heart: "Young people are full of vigor, so what if Liu Zheng is the leader, if you don't admit it after the matter is done, the key is to win."
