Li Xian showed the intelligence: "Three pieces of intelligence. First, Jin has already begun to mobilize troops. The elite alone exceed 500,000 troops. If ordinary soldiers and civilians are added, it must exceed one million. According to the observation and investigation of the spies, the direction of their attack is either the Liu State in the south or the Lu State in the southwest. The commander of Jin this time is still Li Lisong. Although he has experienced failures before, he has accumulated considerable experience. In addition, there are the four generals of Jin, the Southern General Mu Qishan and the Eastern General Cheng Yunbo. The Western General He Zhiyong has been active recently and seems to be strictly guarding the border. In addition, it seems that the figure of the Jin prince 'Jin Yuantai' can be seen in the Jin army. But because the distance is too far, it was only seen once, and the intelligence personnel are not very sure. Second, Qi has sent troops and is using them in the west, with 500,000 elite troops. Third, Chen Guangyi, the general of the northern Chen State, suddenly sent troops to occupy the old capital of Cai State, Shangyong City, cutting off the northern traffic."
Li Xian finished speaking about military and national affairs and first sent the intelligence to Xu Ren. The intelligence had a standard way of recording and the information was very complete, at least more detailed than what Li Xian said!
In Anyang, Xu Ren and Li Yuanming were more inclined towards military affairs, while Yan Ze'an was more inclined towards politics; as for Yuan Yong, he focused mainly on politics.
After reading it, Xu Ren handed the information to Li Yuanming, and then to Yan Ze'an, Yuan Yong, and other officials and generals.
It was Li Yuanming who spoke first: "A war is about to break out, and this war will at least sweep across the eastern part of Yingzhou, and maybe even the entire Yingzhou."
When Xu Ren said this, he didn't know that the Emperor of Zhao in the central part of Yingzhou also had some plans. This war was destined to sweep across the entire Yingzhou!
But that's getting off topic.
Xu Ren paused for a moment and continued, "First, let's talk about Jin. Jin has been preparing for so long, so the possibility of a prince appearing in the army is as high as 80%. Although the spies are not sure, our spies are not stupid and their vision will definitely not be wrong. The spy in charge of Jin is an elite named 'Wang Shen'. This person is very reliable in terms of both ability and loyalty. Secondly, I think that Jin wants to attack Liu, so Jin's Western General He Zhiyong is strengthening the border defense to prevent Lu from taking the opportunity to attack. Master, please have a look."
Xu Ren pointed at the map, "Jin is known as the largest country in the east of Yingzhou. At least within our area of tens of thousands of miles, this title of the largest country is well deserved. Therefore, if Jin wants to attack Lu, Liu will definitely join forces with Lu. In this way, Jin will be caught in the risk of fighting on two fronts and facing the attack of Liu and Lu. What if we attack Liu? Liu is on the seashore and has no support nearby. Even if Lu wants to support Liu, because Jin is well defended, Lu can only join forces with Liu and fight Jin head-on. And with Jin's current military strength and military We have firepower and are not afraid of a head-on confrontation. Moreover, attacking Liu is close to the sea. Jin can quickly obtain arms from us. According to our business rules, as long as we pay, we will sell arms. Jin has not paid off the compensation it owes us, but it can pay with land. In my opinion, based on the current situation, Jin can pay at most 100 kilometers of land in exchange for arms to destroy Liu and even Lu. In addition, because of our help and construction, Jin has developed transportation, and the railway can quickly help them mobilize troops. The mobility is very strong. "
