"Declare sovereignty!" Listening to this strange word, Xu Jingzong quickly understood Chen Ying's intention.

Duke Huan of Qi and Guan Zhong attacked Chu State in name: "The Chu State did not enter the tribute of Chu, and the king did not possess the sacrifice, which was the responsibility. King Zhao's expeditions in the south were not restored, so he asked." In fact, everyone did not respect the Emperor of Zhou, and the neglect was not short. Why did they attack Chu State at this time? As for King Zhao, if he accidentally drowned in the river, it would be even more unreasonable to the State of Chu State. However, under the rule of Guan Zhong, Qi State began to be prosperous and strong, and there was inevitably a contradiction between the original powerful Chu State that could not be reconciled by peaceful means. Launching a war is the wish of the ruling class and an objective need. The reasons on the table are all found.

According to "The Book of Rites: Tan Gongxia", it is said that the master must be famous. Therefore, every time he goes to the battle, he will find a reason to be open and upright. Gradually, this formed the tradition of China.

Chen Ying wanted to send additional patrol teams to Lian County, but in fact he thought of a reason why the division had troops.

Among all the mountains in China, none of them has been in a state of leading war almost as long as the Helan Mountains. After the Central Plains entered the period of the Relief History, the Helan Mountains area was still a paradise for nomadic peoples. Those nomadic groups living by water and grass live their lives in the Helan Mountains area where the water and grass are lush.

The Qin army defeated the King of Xiyiqu and included Helan Mountain in the territory of the Qin Dynasty for the first time. However, with the chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu took the opportunity to occupy Helan Mountain. It was not until Emperor Wu of Han that Wei Qing and Huo Qubing went north to fight against the Huns, and once again extended the military power of the Han regime in the Central Plains to the Helan Mountain area. Emperor Wu of Han divided the country into the thirteen governors and under the jurisdiction of counties, among which Lian County, which was under the jurisdiction of Beidi County, was established on the eastern foot of the Helan Mountain. This marked the establishment of the first county-level system of Helan Mountain.

However, after the demise of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Jin Dynasty was temporarily unified and then split. The Helan Mountains belonged to the Xianbei Tufa tribe, the Qiang tribe, the Baima tribe, and the Xianbei Tuyuhun tribe, and now they are under the control of the Eastern Turks. It was not until Li Shimin ordered the destruction of the Xueyantuo tribe that Helan Mountains were included under the rule of the Central Plains dynasty.

Chen Ying naturally did not want to bear the charge of lightly starting the war. He ordered the Lingwu Army patrol to inspect Lian County. If the Lingwu Army of the Tang Dynasty was attacked, then Chen Ying could openly counterattack the Turks.

Chen Ying did not have much psychological burden for this shameless robbery. In the period of primitive accumulation, it was a dream to be completely clean. At least, he had never heard of a country or a family that would be flawless when it started. The rise of a nation is destined to step on the corpses of one or more nations. Whenever nomadic peoples rise on the grassland, it means that the Chinese nation has blood flowed into a river, with bones as mountains, thousands of miles of naked land, and white bones are exposed to the wild.

Xu Jingzong said worriedly: "General Chen is preparing to fight to support the war, and just eat from the enemy?"

Chen Ying nodded and said, "Building a farm requires money, clearing ditches requires money, building a town fort, repairing a city requires money, and having a meal with 150,000 mouths. The manager has no choice!"

"But... the war starts lightly, the charges are not light." Xu Jingzong said worriedly: "If the censor in the court impeaches the general manager, what if the court blames it..."

At this time, Chen Ying gave Xu Jingzong the official position to join the army in the Record Office of the Lingzhou Military General Administration (equivalent to the Staff). This was a civil servant of the sixth rank. Xu Jingzong was quite satisfied with the current treatment. However, once the emperor was a minister, he was in charge of the drafting of documents, recording and commendation of the army and other important tasks such as the drafting of documents in the army, and the court recognized it. If other generals were replaced, Xu Jingzong would definitely not be appointed.

Therefore, now Xu Jingzong and Chen Ying are both prosperous and both prosperous and both rich and lose.

Chen Ying shook his head and said, "This is not the case. Now the Eastern Turks have concentrated more than 50,000 troops to help Liu Wuzhou attack Jinzhou and Fenzhou. Hedong is under great pressure. As long as we start fighting in Lingzhou, we can definitely reduce the military pressure in Hedong. Even if the censor is impeached, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not sit idly by and be impeached by this general manager and be removed from office!"

Xu Jingzong breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Ying's following sentence made him speechless for a long time.

"However, this battle can only be won, not lose!" Chen Ying smiled faintly and said, "If you lose, all the shit will be placed on my head. This manager is the scapegoat!"

Xu Jingzong said: "Why don't the general manager ask for help from the court?"

"Seeking for help?" Chen Ying said in confusion: "What kind of help is asking for?"

Xu Jingzong said: "The Turks have been moving in recent days, turning into multiple stocks, invading Lingzhou, destroying dozens of villages and towns in Lingzhou, and hurting hundreds of people..."

When Chen Ying heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. Xu Jingzong was now in a row to inquire about the real reality of Lingzhou, so that the court could not touch the true nature of Lingzhou. At that time, the court would definitely order Chen Ying to send troops, and then that would be justified. Not only could Chen Ying achieve the strategic goal of fighting to support the war and feeding the enemy, but he could also remove the charge of sending troops without authorization.

"Miao, Miao, Miao!" Chen Ying smiled and said, "Just follow Xu Zongjun's method!"

Xu Jingzong grinded and wrote without hesitation: "General, General, General of Lingzhou Army and Horse Chief, and Chief of Dingyuan Army Army and Horse Chief, Chen Ying, said, "Since March, border affairs have been uneasy, and the Turkic enemy bandits are rampant. Under the rule of Lingzhou, Huile, Hongjing, Huaiyuan, Lingwu, Mingsha, and the Lishu in Feng'an suffered a lot, and there were thousands of people who lost their homes... This month, Bingwu, the bandits were almost defeated by Mingsha County. I led my army to drive Mingsha. The bandits retreated to Lian County. I dare not cross the border to pursue them. I also asked the Holy Tribunal!"

However, this is the case in fact.

In Xiheting, Lian County, a dozen Turkic Turks were herding sheep on the lush grass. A team of cavalry in the Lingwu Army rushed towards the grazing flock.

When the fierce Turks saw someone trying to steal his sheep, they picked up the hunting bow and shot it at the head of the Lingwu cavalry. It was a joke to try to resist hundreds of Lingwu cavalry.

However, what is surprising is that before the arrow rain hit the Lingwu Army formation, a Lingwu Army soldier suddenly covered his chest and shouted: "The Turks must be powerful, run away!"

More than a hundred cavalrymen turned their horses and ran towards the south.

More than a dozen Turkic people were frowning: "What should I do?"

"If you don't have a family, you're a bastard!" When more than a dozen Turks saw that the Lingwu Army was so weak, they also rushed to wave their hands. They left two people to look at the flock of sheep, and the remaining more than ten Turks rode their horses and chased them towards the Lingwu Army.

Looking at the Turkic people chasing them behind, the Lingwu military commander was so happy that he was about to cry. It was not easy. He provoked more than a dozen tribes in succession and finally encountered a group of stupid people.

The Lingwu Army ran in front and the Turks chased after him. Both sides staged a good show of cat playing with mice on the Yinchuan Plain. Both sides fought back and forth, and they had a lot of fun.

Before they knew it, more than a dozen Turks chased into an abandoned village in Mingsha County. The more than a hundred Lingwu cavalry were neatly stopped their horses. More than a dozen Turks did not realize the danger at all, and thought that the Lingwu army's horsepower had been exhausted.

Seeing that the Lingwu Army could not run, more than a dozen Turkic people rushed up yelling.

However, what greeted them was the overwhelming rain of arrows.

When more than a dozen Turkic people were shot into hedgehogs, at this time, the soldiers of the Lingwu Army looked for some fire-driven objects and lit the abandoned village. The fire burned the abandoned village into ruins.

The village that turned into ruins and the bodies of the thirteen Turkic people who died in front of the ruins are the best evidence. Chen Ying roared to the Turkic envoy with confidence: "Give you a day to hand over the murderer and compensate our Lingzhou for the losses, otherwise you will see you on the battlefield!"

More than 9,000 cavalrymen from the Lingwu Army, more than 10,000 soldiers from Dingyuan raised their arms and said: "Take the murderer and compensate for the losses, otherwise you will see him on the battlefield!"
