Liang Cheng's expression became a little solemn, and he looked at Sheng Ze and said, "Originally, I couldn't figure out who the Tuoyu people were chasing some time ago, but now the answer is self-evident."
"What the general said... Could it be that those people from the Tuoyu clan came to hunt down Chengji from the Jiayu clan last time?" Ling Yun's eyes widened.
Shengze frowned slightly when he heard this. He always felt that there was something he had overlooked, but he couldn't remember it for a while. What was it?
The current Jiayu clan member Chengji is related to him by blood, but he has never met him and doesn't know his face or name.
Now that Chengji's life and death are uncertain, it seems to be a good thing for Da Jin, but if you think about it carefully, it may not be so.
Chengji's biological mother is a princess of Dajin. As long as he is around, Dajin and Guanwai can still coexist peacefully. Once the Jiayu clan is seized of power, the border of Dajin will be in danger due to the ambitions of the Tuoyu clan and others.
What is even more worrying is that the current internal worries of the Jin Dynasty cannot be quelled. Once the tribes outside the pass come, the Northern Hubei Army will be in the most difficult situation.
"Yes, the Tuoyu clan member we caught last time confessed that they entered Linshuigou after chasing a man. If that person is Chengji of the Jiayu clan, everything will make sense." Liang Cheng nodded heavily. .
Although the Tuoyu people are arrogant, they are not stupid. They know that they will die if they come over. They attach great importance to military strength and will not sacrifice their own people easily. However, they still pursue them. This can only show the identity of the person they are chasing. It was so special that they were willing to risk losing their troops to kill people.
Unfortunately, no specific information could be obtained from the prisoners, but now they are certain that the person they are chasing is Chengji of the Jiayu clan.
As for the reason for this, Liang Cheng still can't guess.
Liang Cheng raised his eyes and looked at Shengze, "The Japanese general received an urgent report yesterday that King Zhao is preparing to attack Chenzhou."
As soon as these words came out, Shengze's brows suddenly frowned.
The current situation is really not good.
Although the Northern Hubei Army is powerful, its current situation is not optimistic.
The King of Zhao is pressing inside, and the foreign nations are eyeing him outside. The most breathtaking thing is that the Jin Dynasty can't rely on any power.
"What the hell should we do?"
"Yes, the imperial court's military pay this year has been delayed by half a year, and the grain supplies in the nearby counties in northern Hubei have been requisitioned. If the imperial court does not do some personnel work, the army will be unable to uncover the pot!"
"If you ask me, let's not worry about anything. Let's just fight with those barbarians outside the customs first..."
Everyone was talking about it, and most of them were in charge of the battle.
Liang Cheng felt a headache from the discussion of his group of people, and glared at the person who shouted the loudest, "Niu Manzi, do you only know how to fight all the time? Do you know that if it weren't for Mr. Shan's five hundred thousand Two pieces of silver, we can't open the pot now? Just this, what are you going to use to fight people outside the customs?"
I can’t even eat enough, so I’m going to give you a fart!
Moreover, even if they had money, they would not be able to prepare much military rations in a short period of time. A big war was not something that could be won just by fighting.
Any so-called "blitzkrieg" in history must have been well prepared, but outsiders didn't know it.
Niu Manzi choked and kept mumbling for a while without saying what he was called Chou Yinmao.
However, someone who was calmer stood up and said: "General, I think that the tribes outside the pass will not attack so soon, and King Zhao's army is not good at water warfare, so it will not be easy to cross the Lanjiang River. We still have preparation time."
Some people agreed with what he said, while others objected, "We can indeed fight, but if the court continues to do nothing, will our Northern Hubei Army have to stick to everything?"
