Chapter 346 Which Emperor Is Not Suspicious? (Please Subscribe)

The conversation about the war in the northwest ended quickly.

After all, it only took a month for Jia Huan to lead his army to fight at the northwest frontier.

Basically, he was either fighting the Huqi outside the Great Wall, or he was on the march.

There is not enough time to scheming with the border generals. How can there be so much plot to tell?

After reporting the detailed battle report, that's enough, there is no need to talk about anything else.

Do we still need Jia Huan to express his views on the generals at the northwest border?

He's not that stupid. It's no good to offend people like this. What can I say?

The situation at the border is not that good, but it is not bad either.

It's still those bad habits in the military, and it's not that easy to reverse them.

At least, Jia Huan didn't think that the emperor in front of him had such determination and courage!

The current emperor obviously only wants to know the specific details of the battle of Jia Huan's unit, and has no interest in getting to the bottom of anything else.

Just one hour was enough for Jia Huan to explain clearly the specific situation of the northwest war.

Jin Jin nodded with satisfaction, then asked in a different tone: "General Jia, do you know what's going on in the southwest?"

"On the way back to Beijing, I already found out!"

Jia Huan didn't hide anything and said directly: "The Prince of Nan'an County was defeated and captured!"

He shook his head as he spoke, with a look of disdain on his face.

"Then what do you think?"

Today's face also became ugly, and his tone became serious.

"The Prince of Nan'an is incompetent!"

Jia Huan said unhappily: "I don't know, why did you lose so quickly?"

Now he nodded subconsciously, he was also full of doubts about this.

"Then what do you think we should do next?"

"Your Majesty, if you follow my opinion, you will definitely fight back hard!"

"No, the Prince of Nan'an County has just been defeated, and the morale of the Qianxiang Kingdom's army is booming!"

"so what?"

Jia Huan sneered and said: "Anyway, those who lost were the private soldiers of Prince Nan'an. What the court lost was just its reputation. Just send troops to deal with the people of Qianxiang Kingdom!"

"What I'm worried about is that the morale of the Qianxiang Kingdom's soldiers is so low right now that it's hard to deal with them!"

Now that he didn't want Jia Huan to speak so straightforwardly, he stopped hiding it and expressed his worries: 'If the imperial army is defeated again, I'm afraid the entire southwest situation will collapse! ’

Jia Huan was disdainful and said calmly: "Then what does your Majesty mean?"

At this time, he didn't feel very good. When he talked about these things today, it was as if two villains hiding in a dark corner were plotting something, which was indescribably weird.

"Does the general have the confidence to clean up the mess in the southwest?"

There was no long-winded nonsense now, he looked at Jia Huan and said directly: "Although the general has just returned in triumph, it is inappropriate to send the general out at this time, but you must obey the authority in urgent matters!"

"What result does Your Majesty want?"

Jia Huan sneered in his heart and asked directly: "There must be a goal, right?"

"My requirements are not high. I just need to return to the situation before Prince Nan'an sent out troops!"

Now that he has made a request, he hopes: "I wonder if the general is sure that he can do it?"

"Then your Majesty, how many troops do you think the minister can lead?"

Jia Huan jumped directly into the operation and said bluntly: "Can we control the southwest army?"

"this……"

Now it was Jin Jin's turn to hesitate. He didn't expect Jia Huan to be so rude.

I originally thought that Jia Huan would hesitate for a while, but finally reluctantly agreed under his persuasion.

But Jia Huan's reaction was different from what he imagined.

This time, it was Jin Jin's turn to hesitate, worried that he had missed something.

No matter how magnanimous and graceful an emperor may appear on the surface, none of them is actually suspicious.

He was worried that he didn't think carefully, but in the end, Jia Huan took advantage of him!

If that really happened, not only would it be difficult to save face, but I would also be quite reluctant in my heart.

In fact, Prince Nan'an was unlucky. Although he looked quite embarrassed because he was the one behind the scenes, he actually won this time.

Apart from anything else, the southwest region, which has been controlled and managed by the Nan'an County Prince's Palace for hundreds of years, will now fall into the hands of the imperial court.

This alone makes me so happy today!

Since the Ming Dynasty, the governance of the southwest has been entrusted to the vassal towns. What the court needs is peace there and a small amount of tax revenue.

In addition, the policy of reforming the native land and returning it to local people gradually strengthened its control over the southwest region.

In the pre-Ming Dynasty, the Mu family was in charge of the vassal town in the southwest. By the time of Daqian, it had become the Nan'an County Prince, and the effect was quite good.

Especially in the late Ming Dynasty, Qin Liangyu, a female general named Qin Liangyu who was famous for generations to come, and her "white pole soldiers" with astonishing combat power, received great attention from the imperial court.

As time went by, the imperial court actually gradually gained the ability to directly rule the southwest region.

Mainly, after thousands of years of development, the southwest region is quite rich in grain production and other minerals.

The copper mines in the southwest were particularly important to the imperial court, and even the imperial court coveted them.

You know, all the Central Plains courts in the past dynasties suffered from severe copper shortage!

In the eyes of the Central Plains court, a copper mine is similar to a gold and silver mine!

Originally, the southwest region was the territory of Nan'an County Prince. Not only did they have abundant money and food, but they also had 100,000 soldiers. Even the imperial court could not easily interfere.

But now it's better. The contemporary Nan'an County Prince has completely destroyed the military power in his hands that frightened the imperial court.

At this time, it was logical for the imperial court to take action to take control of the southwest.

Of course, the premise is to quickly calm down the war in the southwest border and to show the authority of the imperial court. Otherwise, the chieftains in the southwest will not obey the imperial order obediently.

This is also the main reason why today, on a sudden whim, the idea comes to Jia Huan!

It’s not that there are no veteran generals in the Daqian army, but it’s a pity that there is indeed a lack of reassuring famous generals!

If he rashly arranges an unreliable past and is defeated like Prince Nan'an, then the fun will be endless and the originally stable situation in the southwest will collapse.

Looking at the entire army, there are quite a few who can fight, and those who can make people feel particularly reassured by fighting are relatively rare, which makes them quite depressed today.

In fact, this is the result of the binding of the army and nobles!

The Xungui Group was in dire straits, and the army was naturally in a state of decline.

Really capable generals cannot display their talents, and even if they have real ability, it is not easy to be promoted quickly. As a result, Daqian's national power is at its peak, and there is no special talent in the army.

After much deliberation, I found that Jia Huan was the most suitable!

This guy is only fifteen years old and has already made great achievements in battle!

Don't think too much, as long as there are no unexpected situations along the way, Jia Huan will definitely be the backbone of the army for decades to come, the kind of existence that everyone has to rely on today.

There is no way, who said that for the sake of posthumous fame, there is a great need for martial arts?

Unexpectedly, I thought Jia Huan would be hesitant, but he turned out to be quite happy. This made him a little doubtful and he didn't dare to make up his mind easily.

In this way, when Jia Huan left the palace, he did not get the exact appointment today.

He has made up his mind that there is not much choice left now!

Unless you take the risk of dispatching the generals stationed in the northeast and northwest frontiers, the ship will capsize if you make a mistake.

For no other reason, the combat modes of the north and the south are very different!

Just the problem of acclimatization can make most generals from the north very uneasy about going to the southwest hinterland.

In addition, you have to consider the possibility of defeat!

If there is no way to know the truth, many military veterans will not dare to take risks easily.

The reason why Jia Huan is so cheerful is because he has confidence in his heart.

I know this very well now. Isn't it just the idea of ​​the Founding Group?

Jia Huan was born in the Rong Mansion and was a standard descendant of the founding nobles. He was definitely in the same league as the Prince of Nan'an County.

Sending him to the southwest to clean up the mess would be acceptable to both the Nan'an County Prince and the imperial court. This was Jia Huan's own advantage.

After all, Southwest has been run by Nan'an County Princes for hundreds of years, which can be said to be deeply rooted.

If the imperial court wants to take over, it can’t be easily taken over!

If one situation is not handled well, intense conflicts and conflicts may break out, and may even lead to turmoil.

Don't forget that there are many chieftain forces in the southwest region, which are not easy to deal with at all.

At this time, the news that Jia Huan was awarded the third-class title had spread.

In short, it caused quite a shock in the circle of Xungui Group.

This was the first time that the imperial court conferred a title after Taizong Congxun Group was established!

Although the title of a third-class son is not high, in the current circle of noble groups, it is definitely among the top titles.

Niu Jizong, the most impressive grandson of Duke Zhenguo, was only holding the title of first-class uncle at this time.

For example, the title of first-class general held by Master Pardon is considered a relatively high level.

It can only be said that the system of downgrading and promotion set up by the imperial court is really unfriendly to members of the noble group.

Unfortunately, the battle of deposing the prince almost wiped out the best of the founding group.

Today, the Founding Group is experiencing serious shortages.

None of this has anything to do with Jia Huan!

He is a concubine of the Rong Mansion. Even if the legitimate son of the Rong Mansion dies, he will not be able to seize the title!

If you want to continue the title, you must adopt a legitimate son from the clan.

This is a dual stipulation of court rules and clan laws, which is quite a test of human nature, and of course can easily lead to internal strife. If such a situation occurs in Rong Mansion, Jia Huan will definitely not agree easily.

At this time, he was knighted for his meritorious service. For a group of nobles and nobles who are motivated, he is definitely a benchmark. At least he has a goal to work hard for.

Therefore, the sensation caused is not just because Jia Huan wants to keep a low profile.

If nothing else, you can tell some clues just by looking at Rong Mansion's reaction.
