"Leave aside my wife and children, even if I am willing to rebel at this time, we cannot be opponents of the imperial court."

Chapter 746: Mu Family's Thoughts

Sitting next to Mu Qing, Li Xin said, "Right now, the troops surrounding the city of Hanzhou should only be garrisons in the southwest, and none of the 30 imperial troops near Gyeonggi have moved. Otherwise, I should have received the news a long time ago. , responded."

"The local garrisons in the southwest are not very difficult to deal with. With the 5 people in Hanzhou City, I may not be sure to wipe them out, but there is no problem in retreating the enemy, but it is limited to this."

Li Xin let out a sigh of relief and continued: "But the imperial court is not limited to these local troops."

"In the Gyeonggi area, there are nearly 30 forbidden troops. In the northern border, there are more than 20 Zhenbei Army and Zhongjia Army. In the northwest, there are tens of thousands of frontier troops resisting Tubo. Army, wait..."

Li Xin glanced at Mu Qing and said a desperate number.

"Even if the frontier troops in the northwest and north cannot move, according to the most conservative estimate, the Jin court can use nearly 50 people with all its strength..."

If the Southern Jin Dynasty 40 years ago was still a small dynasty in a corner of the country, then after two generations of Emperor Wu and Emperor Chengde, this country has become a unified behemoth. During the period of Emperor Wu, the quality may be inferior, but the quantity is definitely crushed.

After a pause, the Marquis of Jing'an continued, "And this is just a conventional force. In an emergency, the imperial court and the Ministry of War can recruit troops urgently. As long as the food supply is available, hundreds of thousands of troops can be recruited in a few months." It's not a problem either!"

Having said that, Li Xin looked at Mu Qing and asked slowly: "So, Uncle Mu still thinks that we can pose any threat to the court of the Ji family?"

Mu Qing's face was a little ugly and she didn't speak.

Li Xin sighed slightly, and continued: "The reason why today's emperor dares to use troops against the southwest while letting me conquer the north is because in terms of absolute strength, he has already crushed him. If he dares to do this, he will Thought he might push me back, but he did it anyway, which means he wasn't afraid."

The Pingnan army dared to rebel at the beginning because Emperor Taikang had just ascended the throne and could not control the power of the entire court. Moreover, they had the title of Prince Ji Ku in their hands at that time, and the capital could not restrain the power of the entire country. For their own use, that's why the Pingnan Army dared to rebel.

Once Li Xin rebelled now, not only did he come from an unknown teacher, but he also had no name and role. Then what he would have to face was this unified dynasty that was still in its heyday.

The 5 people in Hanzhou City will be wiped out under the huge state machine in an instant.

However, if Li Xin rebels now, there is actually no chance of winning.

First of all, unless it is time to subjugate the country, the Zhong Family Army and the Zhenbei Army will definitely not come to the southwest. Choose one of the vassal kings who have fallen into righteousness, and then there will be a possibility of counterattacking the court.

However, this is just the worst plan...

At the very least, Li Xin was not going to do this until he took his wife and children out of the capital.

Hearing Li Xin's words, Mu Qing was silent for a long time, then he looked at Li Xin again, and asked: "But things have become like this, it's no different from falling out publicly, what is Hou Ye going to do?" Deal with this mess?"

"It's simple."

Li Xin said with a smile: "The reason why the emperor dares to use troops against Hanzhou so casually is because he thinks Hanzhou is a soft persimmon that can be manipulated at will. He even only used some garrisons in the southwest and Hanzhong. I just want to take Hanzhou City."

The local garrisons of the Great Jin Dynasty differ greatly from the Central Forbidden Army in combat power. The local garrisons not only have a lot of food and food, but the intensity of training is also very different from that of the Forbidden Army. More importantly, in order to prevent the local army from growing bigger, every year Some more outstanding soldiers will also be selected from various local armies to fill them into the forbidden army, which leads to a huge difference in combat power between the local garrisons and the imperial imperial army.

In the entire Jin Dynasty, except for the frontier army, there was basically no other army that could compete with the imperial army.

The reason why the Son of Heaven dared to make such an appointment was because the "Hanzhou Army" five years ago was unsightly. After all, it was an army that Mu Ying and others cobbled together forcibly. During the confrontation, the Pingnan Army only needed to allocate 1 people to guard the [-] Hanzhou Army. It can be seen how weak the Hanzhou Army was at that time.

"We just need to let the mouth stretched out by the court knock out a few teeth, and even cause them to suffer heavy losses. In this way, the court will be more cautious when it wants to attack Hanzhou again."

Mu Qing pondered for a while, then nodded: "How sure is Hou Ye?"

"At least eighty percent."

Li Xin replied without hesitation.

"Before the spring of next year, the siege of Hanzhou will disappear in smoke. If not, Li Xin will tie himself up and go to Beijing. No matter what, we can keep the people of Hanzhou safe."

The implication of this sentence is that the Hanzhou Army may not be able to keep it at that time.

Mu Qing got up and bowed deeply to Li Xin.

"Hou Ye can also rest assured that no matter what happens to the people of Hanzhou, the Mu family will live and die with Hou Ye."

After finishing speaking, he sighed and said, "I'm getting old, I'll leave it to you young people to discuss matters of war, but there is a saying, this old man has the audacity to remind Lord Li."

Li Xin got up and held the senior salute.

Mu Qing lowered her head slightly, and said: "Master Hou, even if you have passed this matter, it is a temporary solution, not the root cause. As long as the root cause is still there, there will be a next time. He knows better than an old man like me, and Lord Hou will have a way to deal with it."

After speaking, he bowed deeply to Li Xin.

"The old man said this not because he was worried about the life and death of the Mu family, but because he was worried about the future fate of Lord Hou. Lord Hou is a smart man, and his plans for the situation and even the country are top-notch in the world. It's time."

"No matter how Lord Hou chooses, the Mu family in Hanzhou is the only one to follow."

Saying that, Li Xin's elder knelt down in front of Li Xin with a solemn expression.

Seeing her father kneeling, Mu Ying didn't dare to stand still, and followed behind Mu Qing, kneeling to Li Xin.

Li Xin was silent for a while, then stretched out his hand to help the old man up from the ground, his voice was slightly hoarse.

"Uncle Mu, don't worry, Li Xin is not the kind of idiot who doesn't know how to live or die. After this incident is over, let alone rebellion, he will definitely give you and my two families a plan for a future."

After hearing Li Xin's words, Mu Qing nodded in satisfaction, stood up and bowed to Li Xin.

"That's it, Master Hou discusses the war with Quan Zi. The old man will not get involved when he is old."

After finishing speaking, he leaned on crutches and left, leaving only Li Xin and Mu Ying, looking at each other in this small main hall.

Li Xin sat down again and glanced at Mu Ying.

"What do you think, the same as Uncle Mu?"

Mu Ying also sat down, scratching her head in embarrassment.

"I don't want to rebel, but I'm not worth it for you."

The black face also sat down and opened his mouth to curse in the direction of the capital.

"Ji Laoqi, the dog day, is too dishonest. If it weren't for you, Li Changan, he would probably be locked up in Gusu as a pig now, and he might die. Now he has turned his face and refused to recognize anyone!"

Chapter 747 Just Wait

Because Li Xin only remotely controls Hanzhou, not direct control, the Mu family will have the ideas of the Mu family, and the ideas of the Mu family represent the ideas of the Hanzhou army. The Mu family is now willing to be used by Li Xin, but Li Xin also There must be some respect for their ideas.

Just now, Mu Qing, the Mu family’s hometown cook, has already stated his position in front of Li Xin. His idea is very simple, that is, no matter how Li Xin handles this time, he will eventually turn against the court in the future. Just quietly waiting for the court to act.

Now, Li Xin is asking Mu Ying what she thinks.

Whether it's the Mu family or the Hanzhou Army, Mu Ying is actually in control now, and his ideas are more critical than his father's.

After the black-faced general scolded Emperor Taikang who was far away in the capital, he saw Li Xin with a serious face, so the smile on his face gradually subsided.

"Master Hou, father doesn't know you well, that's why he said this to you, but I'm different. The two of us were in the capital back then, and we had a fateful friendship. I know what kind of character you are, no matter what you plan to do. Do it, I will follow you."
