In late October, in the Ji Palace, the Palace of Venerables.

Ji Kang was watching the military and civilian governor of Xing'an County, Fu Bao, and sent him a defense document.

"... During the autumn harvest, tribes gathered in Donghu, as if they were invading. After hearing the news, I took the initiative to lead the army to attack, killing more than 6,000 soldiers from the opponent, capturing more than 30,000 people from his tribe, and capturing 180,000 cattle, horses, sheep and livestock. Now a senator has come to this court and says that I am arbitrarily starting the war, and I am terrified!..."

After reading this defense document from Fubao, Ji Kang began to ponder.

According to the Yan system, any army above the Yan State's division must be personally approved by Ji Kang. However, due to the communication conditions of this era, Ji Kang has relaxed the military command power of the generals of the border counties a lot.

For example, if an enemy army intends to attack the Yan border, the local military and civilian governor has the right to decide whether to take the initiative to attack. The leopard is based on this provision and actively attacks the Donghu border tribes.

"Wang Cong, the deputy general of Fubao, and the supervisors and intelligence personnel of Xing'an County, can there be any documents to report?"

Ji Kang ordered.

"Report to the king, they all have documents to report." The king bowed and replied.

"Give their documents to me."

"promise."

After reading the documents submitted by Deputy General Fubao, Xing'an County Supervision Institute and the head of the Intelligence Bureau.

Ji Kang took the pen and reviewed it on the defense document of Fubao:

"It is not allowed to gather on our borders. This is an iron rule. You have done a good job. In the future, any Donghu tribe army will approach our borders again. This will be handled according to this example."

After putting down his pen, Ji Kang couldn't help but think of the news that was passed back from the Huns.

Most of the intelligence personnel sent to the northern grasslands were carried out in the name of doing business.

In previous lives, there were very few records of the process of the Huns unifying the grasslands in the northern part, and Ji Kang didn't know much.

But from the current perspective, the development of the Huns has obviously exceeded many in their previous lives.

During the two years of melee between the countries in the Central Plains, the Huns' army has swept across the Western Regions, and this year, more than 20 countries of all sizes of the Western Regions have surrendered to the horse's hooves of the Huns, and the strength of the Huns has been further enhanced.

In Ji Kang's memory, the first large-scale war against the Huns of the Central Plains dynasty occurred in the 32nd year of Qin Shihuang (215 BC).

The Qin Dynasty annexed the six kingdoms, and the Huns also unified the northern grasslands at that time.

The Huns took the opportunity to go south and reoccupied many places in the northern border counties of the Central Plains. They used Henan (now Inner Mongolia, Hetao area) as their base, directly threatening the reborn Central Plains dynasty.

Using troops to the Huns and eliminating the military threats of the Huns became the top priority after the Qin Dynasty unifies the six kingdoms.

In order to eliminate the threat from the Huns, Qin Shihuang began to recruit a large number of civilians to connect the northern Great Wall of the former Qin, Zhao and Yan Kingdoms; on the other hand, he sent general Meng Tian to lead an army of 300,000 to attack the Huns in the north.

This battle lasted for three years. Meng Tian led the Qin army not only occupied the entire Hetao area, but also attacked the Beihe River (now the Wuga River in Inner Mongolia), causing a heavy blow to the Huns.

But the good times did not last long. Later, the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, and the Huns immediately occupied Hetao and other places.

It must be said that the Xiongnu people are also a nation that is good at learning. Judging from the current practices of the Manshanyu, in recent years, it has known to learn from and learn from the culture and management systems of the Central Plains countries.

Moreover, Ji Kang learned that many people from the Central Plains had appeared in the royal courts of the Xiongnu and even the Donghu and Yuezhi.

These "knowledgeable people" who were unsuccessful in the Central Plains traveled thousands of miles to the grassland to surrender to the Touman Shanyu. They not only presented maps of the Central Plains countries, but also brought many technologies from the Central Plains to the grassland.

In Ji Kang's view, this is a true "leader" and a "traitor".

These guys were not grateful to the Central Plains that gave birth to him and raised him, but instead encouraged the grassland tribe to go south.

Thinking of this, the fog of history in Ji Kang's mind was suddenly lifted away.

The historical trajectory of the entire development of China is clearly reflected in Ji Kang's heart.

I originally thought that when I came to this era, I had already begun to accelerate the pace of unification of the Central Plains. But the Huns were not idle either, and at this time they began to fight south and north, constantly accumulating their own population and strength.

After calculating the time for Yan State to unify the world, Ji Kang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This is true for the Huns in the North, and the Central Plains countries made Ji Kang dare not be careless at all.

Before the end of this year, it is no longer possible to use troops to Handan.

It is already so fast that it can occupy the four counties in the western Taihang region of Zhao State.

If we use troops to Handan again next year, it will inevitably be another hard battle.

There are four countries including Qin, Chu, Han and Wei. What will happen in the end? It is really hard to say.

Especially in Qin State, Qin King Yingji was old. However, the wartime system of Qin State had not changed at all; over the years, the hundreds of thousands of troops that Qin State had worked hard to manage were also powerful.

It’s useless to think so much. The most important thing at the moment is to take down Jinyang as soon as possible.

Ji Kang came to the map in front of the wall inside the hall, raised his right hand, and clicked Jinyang City on the map.

He said to himself: "I guess Le Cheng has seen the letter I wrote to him, right?"

What Ji Kang expected was true. At this time, Le Cheng in Jinyang City was looking at his cousin Le's room and gave him a handwritten letter.

The Yan State army had arrived at the city of Jinyang at this time, and the entire city of Jinyang was panicked and turbulent.

Every day, Le Cheng not only needs to appease the morale of the army and warn the Yan army to attack the city, but also inspect the city to stabilize the people.

After reading Ji Kang's handwritten letter, Le Cheng raised his head and looked a little tired.

He said to the military major sent by Lejian: "You go back and tell your cousin Lejian that you have received the letter from your king to this general. Thank you for your king's importance to this general, but I will not surrender to your Yan State."

The major sent by Lejian bowed to Lecheng and said, "General, General Lejian will tell you a sentence: My king values ​​the general very much. My king is really sad about the unfair treatment you received in Yan State in the past."

"When the army headed south to Jinyang, my king specially wrote to General Jidu, and told General Lejian again and again that as long as you are willing to return to our Yan State, you will definitely give a generous reward. Please think twice."

Le Cheng laughed loudly and said to the Yan army Major in front of him:
Chapter completed!
