Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty First Solved
Chapter 331: Explanation
After Leng Zhuo sat down in the Xuan Family Teahouse, he found that it was quite similar to some teahouses in the Dijing. After Xuan Chen sat down, he smiled and said, "This place is very quiet. Hu people rarely come here to drink tea. Usually, they receive merchants from the empire. However, you know the current situation, so the business in the teahouse is very light. If you talk here, don't worry about being overheard!"
"Okay, let's talk about your conditions!" If this guy didn't deceive him, he would have been searching for nothing. He was still worried before, how could he rescue those soldiers? After all, when he entered Tumu Village, Leng Zhuo realized that the defense of Tumu Village was still quite strong.
The thick giant tree was deeply trapped underground and could not be knocked down at all. Moreover, there were thousands of Hu soldiers in Tumu Village. Although there were not many masters and could be captured even if they had strong attacks, the most troublesome thing was the reinforcements from the three major tribes that might appear, the grassland, forest and swamp.
If he wanted to completely block the news, he could not do it with the more than 5,000 people in his hands. Once the news spread, a large number of Hu people would definitely be trapped in a day.
It seems like a lot of time to take down Tumu Village, but it is impossible to take it down in an instant. After all, even if the Hu people handed over the head and cut it, it would take a lot of time. Most of the day would be needed. After that, if thousands of soldiers were rescued, they would be pulled away if they could not be rescued. It would take some time to reorganize them.
With so many things, a day was just a joke. Besides, the Hu people were offering the remaining soldiers with great fish and meat. However, the Dragon soldiers in the hands of several large slaves Hu Shangs I saw today were not in good condition.
They could barely pick up the weapon, but they had to run for a long distance and couldn't bear it. Their bodies had only a few days to recover. Not to mention fighting, even running was a problem. The key problem was this. Leng Zhuo wanted thousands of new forces, which could strengthen his strength. However, the current situation was worth taking risks, Leng Zhuo hesitated.
Xuan Chen put away his fan and did not circle around. He could see that the guy opposite liked to go straight, so he admitted: "Maybe you don't believe it. My ancestors of the Xuan family once had ancestral teachings. As long as my descendants of the Xuan family continue to pass on their inheritance, they must return to the empire, return to the ancestral tomb, return to the roots, and wash away the injustice for the crimes borne by the Xuan family. After thinking about it, I want to return to the empire, unless I have great achievements, so I want to take a risk!"
"So I want to join your army and have a place, and I also want you to swear that you will do your best to achieve this ancestral teaching for my Xuan family. As long as you are willing to do your best, no matter what the final result is, my Xuan family will become your most powerful arm helper!"
"Do you want me to help your Xuan family rehabilitate?" Leng Zhuo was also slightly surprised: "I really can't say about this matter, but there should be no problem!" Leng Zhuo thought about it. With his father-in-law and Duke Wei's help, this matter was just an edict.
Ye Linglong pulled Leng Zhuo for a moment. It was obvious that Ye Linglong knew much more than Leng Zhuo, a political novice. The border army incident involved several generations of emperors in the Situ royal family. It can be said that even historical books rarely mentioned that incident, which was obviously a taboo.
There is nothing wrong with abolition of border troops, because the 28 Border Mansions are too strong and have endangered the rule of the royal family. In the early days of the Border Mansion, the royal family could still appoint generals of the Border Mansion, but in more than a hundred years, the Border Mansion had formed a huge force with mixed roots. In the end, a border mansion had already appeared, which was a family matter, and it was difficult for the empire to get involved.
That is why several emperors of the empire did not give their spare effort to suppress the border government. It took decades to finally solve the border government's problems. However, the price paid by the empire was also huge. With the abolition of the border government, the empire's influence on the outside became increasingly declining, and the circle of power contracted rapidly. If the border government's jurisdiction was also drawn into the territory, the empire would lose at least one-third of its territory in the decades.
No matter how wise the emperors made the decision at that time, it was an indisputable fact that the empire had declined since then. It was a pity that it had failed to expand the border, but it had lost such a huge land one after another. If it was true, it would be normal to be called a foolish monarch.
Therefore, the affairs of the border army have become a taboo in the empire. Moreover, Leng Zhuo is now a general of the border army, but he wants to quell the wrongs for the remnants of the border government in the past. That is not a denial of the empire's national policy at that time. In short, there are many noodles here, and if you are not careful, you will be caught and exaggerated.
Xuan Chen looked at Leng Zhuo's ignorant look, but smiled and said, "I hope you will remember today's promise. No matter what the result is, do your best!"
"You are so naughty. Since Leng Zhuo said that, it will naturally help you. But you must always come up with some credit that can help you!" Leng Zhuo is not stupid. He doesn't know the things in the court, but since he has paid, it will naturally have to be rewarded. After all, the court affairs are still far away from him.
Xuan Chen smiled and said, "Of course, but before this, the adults always have to hug me and let me know!"
Leng Zhuo pondered for a while and still said the general situation. After hearing this, Xuan Chen looked at the table and pondered for a while. Afterwards, he raised his head and said, "Five thousand Qibins, this is much better than the number I thought of. I just sorted out my thoughts. Speaking of which, sir, listen, see if it is right or wrong!"
"oh!"
"The Lord led his troops north to Tumu Village because he learned that all the captured soldiers of the Empire were imprisoned here, so he planned to take down Tumu Village, rescue these soldiers, and strengthen their troops. However, if you want to recruit these soldiers, there are three problems that you have to face!"
"First, the defense of Tumu Village, second, the Hu tribe that may be reinforced, third, the inclusion! These three questions can be summarized into one problem, that is time!"
Leng Zhuo nodded and said, "You are right. What we lack the most now is time!"
"I wonder if you have ever thought about why these problems arise?"
Leng Zhuo pondered for a moment and said, "Of course, the news is not clear. When he decided to come and take down Tumu Village, he only heard that there were a large number of captured soldiers from the imperial country. Unexpectedly, after he arrived, he realized that the situation was so complicated!"
"Your Madam is right, it's the source of information. Before you make the decision, you may not even know the current situation of Tumu Village, let alone the surrounding tribes, so the current problems arise!"
"What's the use of these now? You still have to find a way to solve them! Otherwise, you can only give up. After all, you can't just throw all the current troops here for thousands of people!"
Xuan Chen smiled faintly and said, "You are lucky. I met me. I said before. The biggest problem now is time. That is to say, as long as the problem of time is solved, everything will be solved!"
"What, you have a way!"
Xuan Chen nodded and said, "This was originally a dead knot, but with the full help of my Xuan family, this dead knot can also become a living knot. It is still the previous three problems, but the order of the solution is reversed, and the arrangement is to solve the defensive troops of Tumu Village, and to block the reinforcements of the Hu cavalry."
"oh?"
"I understand. Your Xuan family has been in Tumu Fort for hundreds of years. Although he is tempted by the Hu people, he is a landlord after all. You must have a way to contact those prisoners of the imperial guards, right?" Ye Linglong's eyes lit up and he immediately thought of Xuan Chen's ideas.
The inclusion is undoubtedly the most time-consuming, and the soldiers have been hungry for more than a month, lacking strength and weak physically, so they cannot deal with the subsequent wars, let alone after that, they will have to go on a long journey, or be surrounded by Hu people, and in this case, their physical condition is undoubtedly the most important.
If the Xuan family can contact these prisoners, they can secretly increase some food supply for the imperial soldiers and allow these captured soldiers to recover from their weakness, which saves the most important time. With the help of the Xuan family, some people can even be secretly sent to the captive group and incorporated first.
Then when these soldiers recovered most of their physical condition, they could use the help of the Xuan family to blossom from the inside. Thousands of people wanted to seize the Tumu village from the inside, which was undoubtedly much easier than attacking from the outside. At this time, they were working from the outside and the outside, and the Tumu Castle could easily go down.
At this time, because of the preparation in advance, the difficulty of incorporation was greatly shortened, and the thousands of soldiers could quickly integrate into the team. At this time, when they were walking or fighting, they became proactive, which means that the previous knot was untied. However, the premise of all this is that everything the person in front of them was true. If he had a lie, the result would be...!
Xuan Chen also looked at Ye Linglong with a little surprise. The other party's flashing gaze obviously found the way to untie the dead knot: "That's right, two huge warehouses were dug underground in Tumu Village to store materials and equipment. At present, one layer here is still used to hoard grain and goods from the shops above, and the bottom layer is used to detain slaves gathered from all over the place!"
"At present, there are at least tens of thousands of slaves under our feet, and the Dragon Clan soldiers and prisoners account for more than half. In addition, there are mountain barbarians sent from various tribes in Songlin. The population plundered by the Tanlang tribe from various places. There are almost more than 4,000 people!"
"And the person in charge of guarding the underground is the servants of the Deng family, my Xuan family's in-laws. The Hu people rarely go down to that damp and cold place!"
"In other words, the problem has been solved!" It seems that the problem that caused him to have a headache was solved all of a sudden. It seems that his luck is indeed good!
Xuan Chen shook his head and said, "There is another problem. If it is not solved, it seems to become a big problem. I mentioned before that the wedding of Effie Female Master of the Golden Moon Roland tribe is still two days away. If we can't hand over someone, then my Xuan family will be in trouble first...!"
