Chapter 460: Talented, capricious


There is either snow or rain in the north, and although the temperature along the Yangtze River has dropped slightly, it is still a beautiful scene. \ The situation between the north and the south became extremely tense, and the Han army could be seen everywhere north of the Yangtze River, and the situation south of the Yangtze River was similar.

Xu Zheng came from Pengcheng to the camp on the edge of the Yangtze River in Ruyin County, and the Han military camp should be about forty miles away from Shouchun in Xia Cai, which was blocked by the mountain line of sight and could not look at each other from afar.

There are a lot of water systems around Shouchun, first there is Yingshui from the direction of Yuzhou, and then there is Huaishui that crosses through, and there is more fertilizer water that is not far from the edge of Shouchun City.

Eventually, these water systems converge on Shaobi, 60 miles southwest of Shouchun, which is a swamp-type lake that covers a very large area and is known to have many water thieves in it.

The strength of the Han army on Shouchun's side was the largest in the southern expedition, reaching the number of 100,000 troops.

Xie Shi was stationed in Shouchun, including the original 40,000 defenders in Shouchun, and the Jin army in this direction should have 60,000 or 70,000 people "Count the people of the city."

Xu Zheng was at his most energetic moment recently, he sat on the tiger head chair that was just supported by the ceiling, his right hand pressed the hilt of the sword, and his left hand stroked the beard of his chin: "Recruiting people for soldiers, sticking to the city." ” The cities south of the Yangtze River are much denser than those north of the Yangtze River, and this is a situation formed by the habits of the race.

South of the Yangtze River, there are not only many cities, but also a lot of villages in the suburbs, and the villages in the Central Plains that rarely expose the wilderness are two different looks, and the reason why there are few villages in the wilderness in the Central Plains is because the Hu people continue to wreak havoc.

"The Shouchun line is similar to the Dantu line, and the Jin army continues to build depth and form fortifications of great length."

Li Kuangyou served as the commander of the Jiangdu, and he saw with his own eyes that the small imperial court built an exaggerated defensive depth from scratch: "They also led water in, dug deep holes to create quagmires, and filled them with traps and the like. ” The last time Yuan Qiao led the servant army and the slave army to coerce Shouchun, the war did not start at all, but some local battles were frequent, and the biggest trouble encountered was not the resistance of the Jin army, but the trouble caused by the dense water network.

This time, Xu Zheng's southern expeditionary army not only had to face a dense water network, but also the muddy ground caused by the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty deliberately digging indiscriminately and causing the stream to flow crosswise, as Li Kuang said, there were still many traps.

Although it is winter at present, the big war will not happen immediately, and the pre-war position reconnaissance has not stopped for a minute.

Han scouts entered the Jin-controlled area, and the losses were not much in the fight with the Jin army, and the losses caused by falling into some swamps and spike traps were much more.

"They didn't even think about opening up in the field to fight us."

Ding Yi said with disdain: "What I think about is how to rely on the protection of the city wall and hide in the turtle shell to entangle with us." ” In this battle of the southern expedition, the Han army did not have the luxury of expecting a happy sweep, and it was very clear that it was a war of siege and uprooting, and the Han army going south was mainly an infantry army, and the cavalry could play a limited role in the south, so it was naturally necessary to match the corresponding inland water army.

The number of sailors in the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was huge, in addition to the Yangtze River sailors, they also had their own county sailors in various water systems, such as the Jin army sailors with about three or four hundred boats according to the reconnaissance in Shaobi.

The Han army approached forty miles north of Shouchun, and the Jin army was still shrinking into Shouchun City and hiding in Bagong Mountain not far away.

Xu Zheng recruited the people not to ensure the logistics line, but to gradually flatten the depth of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Didn't the Jin army shrink back from it, then the things they engaged in became unattended, the Han army advanced steadily in front, and the rear was the people who carried the burden and covered the soil.

The surrounding people were not worried about being recruited by the Han army, and they found that the Han army did not have the intention of driving them to do ant attachment to the siege of the city, just doing some rough work, and serving two meals a day, and then there was no need for the Han army to take the initiative to recruit the people, it was the people who called friends to come by mouth, in order to be able to have two meals a day.

The world is constantly in turmoil, especially in Yuzhou, which has been a battlefield since the second year of Yuan Shuo, and it is impossible to produce without a sufficiently stable environment, and the people cannot work to avoid the war, in fact, the people have long begun to eat tree bark, grass roots and other things that can satisfy hunger.

Xie Shi, who was in Shouchun, was not willing to watch the Han army continue to destroy the offensive and bury the traps, he was still more interested in going out of the city to fight, but the order from Jiankang strictly ordered that he should not go out of the city.

The letter of state of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was presented by Xi Su to Linzi, and it was Lu Yi, a scholar of the Han Dynasty, who took over the letter of state.

The letter of state was submitted, not only did Xi Su not get the slightest reply, but even the proper diplomatic etiquette was not implemented, and the only time he saw the high-level of the Han State was when he presented the letter of state, and he was kept hanging since then.

No answer is the best answer, Xi Su was originally going to leave Linzi, with some canonized rewards to activities around the Han realm, he just packed up his things and was about to walk out of the door but found that the house had been blocked by the Han army, and the reply obtained from the negotiation was that the Han State was discussing the response to the letter of state, and asked him to stay where he was.

Xi Yi was placed under house arrest in disguise, but Yu Yi's movement was unimpeded.

Yu Yi did not ask to see Liu Yan, he only stayed in Linzi for a day before leaving the city, and took the descendants of the family to Changguang County, the previous time he wanted to go to the Martyrs' Garden did not achieve, since the accompanying group of people had arrived in Linzi to settle down, then he obviously had to go to the Martyrs' Garden.

Xie Shi basically had no attitude towards the fact that a large number of sons of the family went north before the war was approaching, and even the head of the family went north in person.

Xie Yi's re-talk about the relationship with the King of Han is actually from his handwriting.

The family's policy has always been very complicated, Xie Shi is the governor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty's small court, yes, he personally led the army is waiting to confront the Han army that is about to invade the south, but it does not prevent him from leaving a way back for the family.

Even in the face of the strong approach of the Han army, it still couldn't prevent him from paying close attention to whether there was any response from the Han King's side.

"Ling Jiang is a beautiful woman, how many people can't ask for it, and my brother doesn't need to worry too much."

Xie Wan is Xie Shi's fourth brother, the official worships Captain Zuo, and the Ling Jiang in his mouth is Xie Daoyun.

He covered the wine bottle in his hand and said, "I don't know where An Shi is now." ” Xie Yi has six sons, the eldest is Xie Yi, the second son Xie Yi died early, and then Xie An, Xie Wan, Xie Shi, and Xie Tie.

According to the Jiupin Zhongzheng product of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Small Imperial Court, the Xie family is the Shangpin family, and the family background determines that it is not difficult for the descendants of the family to be officials, but not everyone in the Xie family is willing to be an official, such as Xie Yi, who has not been in the office, Xie An, who did not want to be an official, but Xie Shi is very interested in being an official.

Xie Daoyun of the Xie clan is a talented woman with a wide reputation in the south of the Yangtze River, and the popular saying is that the person who wants to marry can line up from the Yangtze River to Jiankang, and there are many candidates who are the right person with him.

Probably in the sixth year of Xiankang, Wang Xizhi tested Xie Yi's attitude at a banquet, and wanted Xie Daoyun and Wang Ningzhi to set a baby kiss, at that time Xie Yi did not agree or refuse, Wang Xizhi's Wang family actually regarded Xie Daoyun as the daughter-in-law of the Wang family from that time.

With the initiative of the Wang family, Xie Daoyun and Wang Ningzhi, who are not a few years old, often play together, and according to the original trend, the two little guys will go down as childhood sweethearts, until they later get married.

This time, the Xie clan wanted to give Xie Daoyun to Liu Yan, and they had not communicated with the Wang clan in advance, waiting for the Wang clan to learn the news, and the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty would inevitably stage a big drama.

Wang Xizhi caught Yu Yi and scolded not long ago, with his peerless calligraphy, it is destined to make the scolding article rumored to be in future generations, and it broke out that the Xie family has a female marriage to the king, Wang Xizhi, who was originally in Jiankang, went to find Xie Yi first, and set off to Shouchun without talking about any results.

Xie Shi was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Wang Xizhi at a routine military meeting, with the background that the Han army had not stopped at all when winter came, and had advanced ten miles south from the direction of Xia Cai, and was less than thirty miles away from the heavily guarded Shouchun.

The literati don't care about any military affairs, Wang Xi appeared with an angry appearance, full of majesty to scan the civil and military, and stared at Xie Shi and Xie Wan, who were slightly stunned.

"Each of them will return to the headquarters and wait for the next meeting."

Xie Shi let the Wenwu go out first, and then stood up to greet Wang Xizhi, and asked with confusion and puzzlement: "Yi Shao, but what happened to him, why did he look like a dusty man and full of anger?"

In the final analysis, the Xie family really didn't make any promises to the Wang family, and the matter of fixing the baby was wishful thinking on the part of the Wang family, and Xie Shi had enough confidence in the face of Wang Xizhi.

The procedures between the families are very complicated, and the exchange of birthdays is only one of them, and the necessary gifts and gifts must be carried out, and the family elders of both sides must exchange red posts to be considered a formal marriage.

Xie and Wang did not do any of the above steps, according to common sense, when Wang Xizhi was pretending to be confused by Xie Shi's understanding, even though he was full of anger, he couldn't get out.

Who is Wang Xizhi, he is a famous poet, calligrapher, and metaphysician in the world, and after being respected and flattered, many things are taken for granted.

"The conquest of the metropolitan governor thought that the Wang family was declining, and he could be bullied at will" Wang Xizhi was once the son of the largest gate valve south of the Yangtze River, although the Wang family is now at the bottom of the four major gate valves, but the influence and strength are still not to be underestimated, and this time the Wang family casually took out 20,000 private troops as regular troops.

He looked at Xie Shi with wide eyes, raised his hand unceremoniously, and said angrily: "It's understandable that the Xie family wants to leave a way back, but it's taking the daughter-in-law of the Wang family to cut down, it's a bit too deceitful."

In the eyes of some people who don't know the truth, Wang Xizhi, a great poet, a great calligrapher, and a great metaphysician, should be a gentle and elegant person, but no matter what his identity is, he is a human being, and a person should have a temper.

The Xie family is definitely lying if they say that they did not take the anger of the Wang family into account, who doesn't know that Xie Daoyun is a talented woman, or the kind of coveted family girl, the beauty is liked by everyone, and there is a misunderstanding that was not a misunderstanding caused a few years ago, and the Xie family has its own choices in the face of the anger of the Wang family.

The general trend of the world is to explain Lang, and it is really becoming very clear.

The new Han State will soon recover the Central Plains, showing the posture of a military power.

Looking at the fact that the Han army did not have any difficulty attacking everywhere, and the multi-front operations never showed weakness, it is conceivable that the worst situation of the Han State was to control the vast majority of the Central Plains and become a powerful country in the world.

The small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty faced the Han army's southward march was a kind of mentality, and it looked like it was going to resist desperately, but if the Han State showed an attitude of being willing to guarantee the interests of the family, it would be another matter.

Under this complex psychology, not only the Xie family is looking for a way back, but the Wang family also has their own actions.

"Yi Shao, don't be impatient."

Xie Shi kept a smile on his face, he didn't want to completely tear his face, such as poking out that the Wang family had children going north.

He asked Wang Xizhi to sit down but was rejected by brushing his sleeves, and said with a smile: "It's not true to say that the marriage is not true, you know that Ling Jiang has always made up his own mind", dragged a tail note, and said softly and hardly: "Brother favors Ling Jiang, and what Ling Jiang asks is what my brother will inevitably agree." ” "Nonsense" Wang Xizhi retorted: "Ning Zhi and Ling Jiang have no guesses since they were young, and they regard them as future partners, which is known to the world. ” It's not that Xie Shi is talking nonsense in this matter, Xie Daoyun is really very interested in Liu Yan from scratch, especially when Shijie Zhao Guo is constantly retreating, she was just asked by the elders of the family, and replied "It is better to be with such heroes than to live with weak people", giving the elders a very clear answer.

"What the world doesn't know."

Xie Wan didn't want to speak, but seeing that Wang Xizhi was the aggressive one, he couldn't hold his breath and said, "Ling Jiang and Ning Zhi are playmates, but they have nothing else to do with each other. ” Wang Ningzhi is only eleven years old this year, and he didn't take the table word.

The relationship between Xie Daoyun and Wang Ningzhi is a playmate, and it is impossible to say that Xie Daoyun has a good impression of Wang Ningzhi, on the contrary, Xie Daoyun, who is a talented woman, should say that Wang Ningzhi, who seems extremely mediocre, just play well, or the kind of person who wants to hide and have nowhere to hide.

"When the Han army is approaching, it is not appropriate to talk about this matter."

Xie Shi deliberately eased the atmosphere, restrained his smile, and said to Wang Xizhi seriously: "Let go of the children's private affairs before the military affairs."

Wang Xizhi seemed to laugh angrily, and said something that should not be said: "It's about to be a family member, and you can still focus on military affairs."

At that moment, Xie Shi's face was ugly, and Xie Wan, who was more youthful and vigorous, directly scolded "not enough".

"Xie An is one of the pseudo-Han generals, and the Xie family has a daughter who is immediately a pseudo-princess, and the Xie family must have a wealth and glory."

Wang Xizhi sneered and brushed his sleeves again, and before leaving, he put down his words: "I will never give up on the matter of family income":
