Chapter 52: Standing in front of you is Shenwei Hou Jiang Xuan
[The 33rd year of Emperor Yuan’s reign, the beginning of autumn]
[What you didn't expect was that after the war in the southern border was temporarily stabilized, Doctor Zuo Wu and General Shenwei Jiang Xuan actually followed the order of Emperor Yuan and led their troops to the northern border to help you defeat the barbarians.]
[This is the first time you meet Jiang Xuan]
[Your impression of Jiang Xuan is that of a burly, nine-foot-tall, ferocious-looking man with a face full of flesh. But to your surprise, Jiang Xuan is not like your impression, but a gentle and elegant young man.]
[You were surprised and started chatting with him.]
[That night, you had a great conversation with Jiang Xuan]
[The 33rd year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
【Cold Dew】
[After Jiang Xuan arrived, it took you only two months to defeat the barbarian army, conquer the seven states in the northern border, and drive the barbarians back to the grassland]
[During this period of time, you witnessed Jiang Xuan's bravery and his well-thought-out strategy. He played the barbarians in the palm of his hand and won many battles. You were amazed by this and wrote a letter to Emperor Yuan praising him highly.]
"Ok?"
Look at this empress.
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise and said, "Prince Qin, you actually wrote a letter to my father praising Jiang Xuan?"
This matter.
She really didn't know.
[The 33rd year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
【Frostfall】
[After driving the barbarians out of the northern border, Jiang Xuan did not stay in the northern border for long. He was transferred back to the southwest by Emperor Yuan to prepare for a decisive battle with the Wei, Dali, and Nanyue dynasties.]
[Although you also wanted to go with us, the northern border still needed you to lead the army to guard it. Feeling deeply sorry, you personally escorted Jiang Xuan for more than 20 miles before turning back.]
[34th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
【New Year】
[You received the message, the decisive battle has begun]
[Jiang Xuan was entrusted with an important task by Emperor Yuan and led an army of 400,000 to attack Gu'an Prefecture]
[You were worried about Jiang Xuan]
[As far as you know, the Dali garrison in Gu'an Prefecture has more than 600,000 soldiers]
But what will shock you is
[It took Jiang Xuan only three days to capture Gu'an Prefecture, but he did not stop there. Instead, he spent another two days to take back Luoshui Pass. He killed the Dali Dynasty and forced them to flee back to Chengwu Pass in disgrace.]
[You were shocked when you found out about this]
[But when you think about Jiang Xuan's performance in the North, you think this is normal]
【after】
[You also heard that Jiang Xuan was transferred to Guangling by Emperor Yuan]
[You didn't pay much attention to this battle, because the damn barbarians came back again. You once again led your army to fight against the barbarian army.]
[However, even if you don’t have time to pay attention]
[But the victory news of the battle of Guangling still reached the northern border and reached your ears.]
[In the Battle of Guangling, Jiang Xuan's 700 Xianzhen Camp defeated the Wei Dynasty's most elite Wei Wuzu from the front, and earned the reputation of being the most elite in the world]
[34th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
【Jingzhe】
[You also heard that after Jiang Xuan completely defeated the Wei Dynasty and recovered all the western borders, he rushed to Lingnan without stopping, and together with the King of Jin, attacked Nanyue.]
[At this time, you are still fighting with the barbarian army]
[This battle lasted for a very long time]
[Outside the Juman Pass, corpses pile up like mountains and blood flows like rivers. You have suffered heavy losses. Out of 300,000 elite troops, only a hundred thousand are left. You are almost unable to stop them.]
[In desperation, you write a letter asking for help]
[To your surprise, the reinforcements did not arrive]
[34th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
【Minor Heat】
[Emperor Yuan issued an imperial decree to confer the title of Marquis of Divine Power on Jiang Xuan. At the same time, he ignored all objections and ordered Jiang Xuan to personally lead an army of 700,000 from Lingnan to attack Nanyue]
[This battle did not last long]
[In just over two months, Nanyue surrendered, offered a large amount of gold and silver, and signed many unequal treaties, which made Emperor Yuan let them go.]
[The 34th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign, White Dew]
[The barbarian army's attacks are becoming more frequent. Juman Pass is in your hands and you have lost it again. This time, you also lost your fiefdom, Datong Prefecture.]
[Emperor Yuan is furious]
[Let Jiang Xuan lead the army to come quickly]
【Autumnal Equinox】
[Jiang Xuan leads his army to arrive]
[This is the second time you have seen him. At this time, he has been awarded many honors.] [Now, the one standing in front of you is the Marquis of Shenwei of the Dawu Dynasty, who is also the General of Zhenbei and has been granted the title of Tongshi Dafu.]
[At this time, Jiang Xuan has reached the pinnacle of military commanders, and the next step is to be the Grand Commandant.]
"that time."
"Is he the doctor?"
After seeing that Jiang Xuan had become a senior official in the 34th year of Emperor Yuan's reign, the empress opened her mouth.
There was a hint of shock in his narrow eyes.
Tongshi doctor.
Although it is only the fifth rank.
But in the military official system of the Dawu Dynasty, it has been considered to have reached its peak.
Going further up, there is only the Taiwei.
Not to mention that Jiang Xuan also has the title of Marquis and the title of General Zhenbei.
Taken separately, these two are both powerful and influential.
Shocked.
The empress continued reading.
[34th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
【Xiaoxue】
[After Jiang Xuan led his army to the front, the barbarians were defeated once again without any surprise and were driven back to the grassland. However, this time, Jiang Xuan did not stop.]
[Instead, he led an army of more than 200,000 and charged into the grassland]
[You did not go to this battle]
[It is said that under Jiang Xuan's command, there is a young general named Huo Qubing, who is extremely brave. He only led 7,000 cavalrymen and dared to charge into the barbarian army of 300,000 elite soldiers, killing them seven times.]
"Huo Qubing?"
Saw this name.
The empress frowned.
He withdrew his gaze and looked at the secret letter on the table, which was sent back from the northern border.
book.
Many days ago, Huo Qubing led three thousand brave cavalry out of the pass.
Chase the barbarian prince Zarha.
Under the pursuit of Huo Qubing, Zarha did not dare to fight and retreated all the way deep into the grassland.
A few more days.
Min Shaoshan, a brave general from the northern border, followed the order of King Zhenbei and led 100,000 brave cavalry out of the border.
Meet up with Huo Qubing.
He wanted to attack the barbarian royal court directly.
"He has quite a few capable people under his command." Looking at the secret letter on the table.
The empress pursed her lips, feeling a little envious.
Under Jiang Xuan's command, whether it was Xu Chu who commanded the Xianzhen Camp, or Huo Qubing and Min Shaoshan.
They are all first-class generals.
If only there was someone she could use.
Why should she be so afraid of those vassal kings?
This is also the reason why she asked Ruan Surong and her two daughters to try to contact Xu Chu in Xingqing Prefecture.
Think about it.
The empress continued reading.
[The 35th Year of Emperor Yuan]
【spring equinox】
[Jiang Xuan returned with a great victory, driving the barbarians deep into the grasslands, killing more than 400,000 enemies]
[As you watched Jiang Xuan return to the court, you felt that he was unfathomable and admired him more and more.]
【Afterwards, you returned to Datong Prefecture】
[Continue to be your free and easy prince]
[In the 36th year of Emperor Yuan, you received news that Jiang Xuan led his army to break through Chengwu Pass and marched straight into the heartland of Dali Dynasty, forcing Dali Dynasty to cede land and pay compensation]
【same year】
[You also heard that Jiang Xuan led his army to break through the Shenwu Pass of the Wei Dynasty and returned with a great victory]
[Not long after Jiang Xuan returned to the court]
[Conferred the title of King of Zhenbei by Emperor Yuan, and concurrently served as Grand Commandant and General Guarding the Nation]
