Winter is a time when everything is silent, and the winter cold brings ice and freezing, not only people can't stand the cold, but animals and plants will also suffer.
Relatively speaking, as a wise person, you don't need to follow the seasons like animals, you can choose to do certain things according to your own wishes or those of others.
When Xie An received the order to return to Chang'an from Longxi, not only could you see snow white everywhere on the road, but the entire Chang'an City was actually shrouded in white.
The conquest of Longxi was not a very important thing for the Han State, it was just Ran Min's need, in order to stabilize the rear before Shi Hu's arrival, and after the situation changed comprehensively, there was no longer any need to stabilize the rear, especially Ran Min was ready to go to Yuzhou at any time.
"That one expanded his army to 300,000 in just two months."
Gai Ning was the one who conveyed the military order to Xie An.
He witnessed some of what happened in Chang'an, frowned deeply and said, "Almost everyone who can enlist in the army is accepted." ” When Ran Min's troops arrived in Yuzhou, they needed to register and make a register, but not all of them were accepted, and they must have to go through the elimination of the good and the bad, such as removing the old, weak and disabled.
Ran Min should know this Chang'an is almost without many idle people, as if it has become a large barracks, and you can see soldiers wandering around everywhere.
Xie An entered Longxi with 20,000 Janissary troops, and more than 17,000 returned to Chang'an, which is equivalent to nearly 3,000 people killed in Longxi.
They fought in Longxi for nearly four months, and the real battle was only twice, and the rest were spent chasing and being chased.
Longxi is a region dominated by plains, although it has long been ruled by the Chinese civilization, but whether it was in the pre-Qin or the Han Dynasty, it has always been dominated by herdsmen.
The reason for this is a bit peculiar, just as it was difficult to cultivate agriculture in later generations, and there was no deep sand under the turf, and a similar environment really could not be used as a farming area.
Xie An and the others fought in Longxi in a very vast area, and even once entered an unknown basin Tuguhun, and a continuous mountain range Xiqiang Mountain could be seen in the distance.
"That one has been making a lot of moves lately."
When Gai Ning's brow did not loosen: "You need to pay close attention. ” Xie An only nodded in understanding.
The Han side has always had doubts about what action Ran Min will take, and even has enough psychological preparation that Ran Min will stand on his own again.
Xie An led the army to Chang'an without receiving orders to monitor Ran Min and his command, firstly, 17,000 could not be monitored at all in the face of nearly 300,000, and secondly, the Han State had no extra strength to take care of anything.
In fact, it is really like that, if Ran Min wants to stand on his own again, it is really the best time, and at this juncture, except for the Zhang family, no party has the extra energy to care.
Chang'an palace city was repaired once during the Liu Yao period, and expanded again after the founding of Ran Min, to say that it must not be compared with the palace built by Shi Hu, but compared to the palace city over there in Linzi, it is much more magnificent.
Xie An came to Chang'an, and Ran Min sent someone to summon him as soon as he received the news.
When Xie An came to Miyagi, he saw a large number of troops gathered around Miyagi, and it seemed that these troops were preparing to be attacked.
"The king can't take care of Guanzhong for the time being, and those who are willing to move with us should go."
Ran Min was fully armed, wearing the special Mingguang armor made by the generals of the Han army, wearing a red cloak on his back, and pressing his right hand on the hilt of the sword: "We will go to Yuzhou in a month, but before leaving, we must first eliminate those bastards." ” Xie Anleng paused for a moment and quickly reacted.
There is no one else in the bastards that Ran Min is referring to, it must be those local clans and heroes who have not cooperated with him for a long time, and there are really too many such people to imagine.
"Of course, you can't wipe them all out in a month, but you can destroy as much as you can."
Ran Min sneered: "Start from Longdong and sweep all the way to the east." ” Gaining, who had been frowning deeply, finally let go, and he said relatively respectfully: "But I don't know when the general will start the operation" "It's already started."
Ran Min didn't know who Gai Ning was, so he looked at Xie An and said, "I need your help." ” This time, Xie An frowned: "An got the order to bring the troops to the border of Chang'an and station. ” "The general is outside, and the king's order is not subject to it, isn't it" Ran Min had a tough attitude: "You have an elite infantry army under your command, and you are very experienced in attacking cities and pulling out villages." ” Xie An shook his head and didn't say a word.
Jiang Gan, who had been standing quietly beside him, said appropriately: "The army in Guanzhong is also the king's army, and the number of casualties is the amount of the king's loss.
With the assistance of the elite infantry under the command of An Shi, many losses can be reduced. ” "A military order is a military order."
Xie An is actually not a tough person, he just doesn't like Ran Min, and there are few people south of the Yangtze River who like Ran Min.
He said bluntly: "If you don't attack, there will be no losses." ” In an instant, Ran Min's face became extremely ugly.
Yes, he is just out of personal grudges, and before leaving, he wants to have a revenge and revenge and complain, after all, he was angry enough by the local heroes and clans before.
Jiang Gan wanted to speak to ease the atmosphere, but he didn't know what to say when he saw Xie An's expressionless face.
"Then get out."
Ran Min never knew what politeness was, he could endure it when he pretended to be a grandson on Shijie's side before, but he didn't endure it once after rebelling against Shijie: "Immediately roll away with your troops." ” Xie An still didn't have any expression on his face: "I will only walk down, not roll."
He looked at Ran Min without being stunned at all, and said: "The order I got is to be stationed around Chang'an City, and unless there is a new military order, I won't even move a step." ” "Look, look, these families are quite hard now."
Ran Min looked at Jiang Gan and said mockingly: "If they had such bones before, they wouldn't have lost the Central Plains and fled to the south like lost dogs." ” Xie An's brows furrowed, he glanced at Ran Min with a mocking expression on his face, and then at Jiang Gan with a wry smile, and said to Gai Ning, "Let's go." ” Almost as soon as Xie An left the palace, the sound of war drums and horns was sent out in the tower of the palace, and the troops that had originally gathered around the palace city were marched out in an orderly manner, leaving Chang'an City from the north gate and the west gate respectively.
"Unruly," said Ginin, who doesn't have to guess: "He doesn't look like a minister at all, eating the food we give, wearing the clothes we give, and using the weapons we give, but he does his own thing." ” Xie An didn't speak, he needed to return to the barracks as soon as possible, not to send troops to fight with Ran Min, but to prevent Ran Min from sending troops to report personal grievances as false, and to attack the Han army was true.
As a result, Ran Min did not attack Xie An's department at all, and he really drove to the west, and the baggage and related siege equipment with him looked quite a lot.
"King Liang just left some time ago, and he had many private meetings with Ran before leaving."
Gai Ning said with suspicion: "He led his troops to the west, whether he really wanted to attack the city and pull out the fortress, or did he go to the king of Liang to seek refuge" Xie An was willing to use the most sinister mind to guess Ran Min, any southern family would guess like this, but he didn't think Ran Min would do that.
Zhang's Liangguo will not be a good shelter, it is not barren over there, but it is sparsely populated and remote, and what Zhang Jun needs is Ran Min as a barrier in Guanzhong, not to enter Zhang's Liangguo to find a place to restore his strength, after all, who can be sure that Ran Min will not occupy the magpie's nest.
"It's true that I do my own thing.
It's also true to report personal grievances.
Xie An and Gai Ning are not familiar with each other at all, but they have a good impression and are willing to talk more: "His own family members, the family members of his subordinates, including most of his followers, are in the territory of Dahan, even if he is willing to leave his family behind, his subordinates will agree."

Gai Ning thought it was true, even if Ran Min himself could be cold-blooded, Ran Min couldn't make all his subordinates cold-blooded.
He smiled bitterly and said: "In order to repay personal grievances before leaving, the use of soldiers in winter is really " A month passed quickly, and Ran Min led more than 100,000 people to the expedition, but the troops he brought back were only less than 70,000.
They brought back a huge amount of loot, including the captured heads.
The heads were soaked in lime and preserved, and more than 400 carts were loaded.
According to the calculation that a car can hold 300 heads, Ran Min cut off more than 120,000 heads in a month after going on the expedition "What do you mean" Gai Ning saw that some of the loaded heads had completely rotted into skeletons, and said in surprise: "Are they going to be transported to Yuzhou, according to military merits?"
Xie Anke was not just surprised, but completely disgusted: "The heads of women and children and the old and weak account for the majority. ” The Han army counts military merits according to the number of heads, but it is not entirely based on the number of heads won, how many wars have been won, how many battles have been participated, and so on.
Ran Min turned around, and after only three days of preparation, he sent someone to inform Xie An, saying that he could leave for Yuzhou at any time.
He really wants to take those heads to Yuzhou, looking at it to let the 120,000 people among his subordinates have at least the first-class title of the twentieth rank of military merit, but it is not only laughable to watch, it should be said to be very fucked.
"It's a big problem," Gai Ning seemed to have a sense of respect for Ran Min, and said, "It's the last time he'll fight for the welfare of his followers."
Xie An had thought of that a long time ago, but to say that his impression of Ran Min had not changed at all.
He really felt that Ran Min's IQ was slightly low in some aspects, so he couldn't think that this was destroying the military merit system of the Han Kingdom, or even embarrassing the entire Han Kingdom In any case, the huge team in Guanzhong began to leave the Guanguan and walked to Luojun to Yuzhou, and the team seemed extremely vast, and it was connected for dozens of miles.
Throughout the winter, if there was any action in Shijie Zhao and Han, it was that both sides were doing their best to prepare for war.
The Han State used a winter to recruit soldiers and conduct the necessary training, and the necessary war materials would definitely be concentrated on the battlefield that should be sent.
Not only the troops and baggage, Liu Yan also constantly discussed with his ministers, and seized the gap to build a lot of fortifications, such as building as many "castles" and garrison forts as possible in the Han army-controlled area east of Puyang County, and urgently building city walls and related fortifications in Nanpi Bohai County and Lecheng Hejian County in Jizhou.
Liu Yan, who was in Fenggao, learned that Ran Min had already taken the troops out of the customs and would arrive in Yuzhou soon without accident.
He also knew that Ran Min had brought more than 400 carts of heads, saying that he wanted to ask for credit for his subordinates.
"This case can't be opened" Ji Chang's face was full of anger: "Don't say that it is full of women, children, and the old and weak, just say that it is like this without registration, and you must not agree to such nonsense" "Even if we admit it, will those soldiers think that it is the king's grace, or remember Ran's grace" Sang Yu looked at it with an angry smile: "I heard that the idea came from King Liang, what is he going to do?"
According to the laws of the Han Kingdom, it is not the soldiers who are killed on the battlefield to be able to exchange for merit, and they can also be regarded as equal to military merits.
Such a rule was inherited from the pre-Qin period, and it was such a rule before.
Liu Yan knew that both Ji Chang and Sang Yu were talking angrily.
The troubles in his heart are more than anger, after all, rules are rules, and no matter how disgusted he is, he can't ignore the rules because of anger.
"Let's not care what Zhang Jun wants to do."
Liu Yan looked at Cai You and said, "Get ready, see where the land that should be rewarded should be selected, and the slaves that should be allocated should also be allocated as soon as possible." ” Ji Chang and Sang Yu glanced at each other silently, they could be regarded as understanding a little, Liu Yan must have felt extremely disgusted, but as a king, he was so helpless.
"There is a short rainy season after the beginning of spring, and considering that the muddy season still does not allow for large-scale fighting, it is time to do more during this time."
Liu Yan couldn't help but look at Xie Ai, who was sitting on the side, and after a pause, he said again: "How to go to Hejin and how to control the dynasty is the most urgent matter at present. ” Attack Zhao, Yuyan, Mengliang, Yudai, and Jin.
This is the national policy given by Xie Ai, and Liu Yan has already begun to implement it, but it is really not what to say in terms of effectiveness.
At present, the Han State is trying to ease relations with the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Huan Wen went to Jiankang again, in the name of the envoy, and there was only one news that came back, the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty asked Liu Yan to change the name of the country to Qi and abolish the sacrifice of Mount Tai, and even asked Liu Yan to be a minister.
Is that a lion's big mouth Anyway, the small court mentioned one more thing, that is, otherwise, hundreds of thousands of Jin troops will cross the river and go north.
Liu Yan knew that the small court was very serious about a serious and funny attitude, and after reading the news sent back by Huan Wen, he wanted to recruit someone back, but Xie Ai thought that he could slow down.
Xie Ai's opinion is very simple, even if one party is serious and funny, it is also negotiating, which is equivalent to delaying it.
He is very aware of the efficiency of the small imperial court, as long as Huan Wen is still in Jiankang and has a relationship with him, it is not completely impossible to get involved for two or three years, and dragging it out is definitely beneficial to the Han side.
Yu Dai Lu Yi is still in the grassland, and from time to time there is news that he is still in charge of Tuoba Xiu's dowry, and he has armed nearly 15,000 people, but Tuoba Shi Yijian's actions are more incomprehensible
