The northern border is surging and war is about to break out. However, even if a war of this scale is really fought, it will not happen overnight. The two sides may have a stalemate for a long time, months or even years.

However, the Xianbei tribe now lacks food and cannot last for a few months. So before they officially attack Jimen Pass, they will most likely rob around Jimen Pass. There are many beacon towers similar to Xiao Chenji near Jimen Pass. A beacon tower protects a crowd of people nearby. Beacon towers are much more difficult than Jimen Pass. Once the battle starts, the Zhenbei Army will most likely abandon the beacon towers and defend Jimen Pass with all their strength.

But even so, the Zhenbei Army was run by the Ye family for three generations, and it is not a mob. As long as the Zhenbei Army is willing to defend Jimen Pass, this battle will only be fought until the end of the year before a result will be possible.

The Yuwen Ministry slowly advanced towards Jimen Pass, and this news was also spreading from northern Xinjiang to all parts of the Great Jin Dynasty at the fastest speed.

Naturally, all officials were shocked in the capital. Everyone gathered together to discuss how to deal with the war in the northern border. At the same time, the news also reached the southwest as quickly as possible. However, because thousands of miles apart, the news from Jizhou reached Jincheng in the southwest was already mid-April in the fifth year of Yuanzhao.

During the Chinese New Year this year, it was the New Year that Zhao Jia and Li Shuo and his group spent in Yongzhou. However, after the New Year, Li Xin followed them away from Yongzhou and went to Jincheng to discuss the issue of when to leave Shu. When the news of the northern border reached Jincheng, Li Xin had been in Liyuan in Jincheng for more than three months.

This time, he brought his wife, children, and children from Qiyang to Jincheng. After all, Yongzhou was still within the sphere of influence of the court. It was not safe to stay in Yongzhou at this time, so the whole family moved to Jincheng for the time being.

Li Yuan is his villa in Jincheng. After all, he is not good enough to live in the Shu Palace all the time, which will make people unable to distinguish between the primary and secondary.

He is the core of the southwest, and the news was also sent back by Shen Gang's secret division arranged by Jizhou. Therefore, the news was delivered to Liyuan as soon as possible. After Li Xin received the news from Shen Gang personally, he frowned slightly, and then said: "Go to the Martial Arts Office to invite Mr. You'an to come here to see me, and find someone to invite Mu Ying over."

Zhao Jia is working in Jincheng, so it is natural that he is very easy to invite him, but Mu Ying is training outside the city, so it will be a little trouble for him to invite him. As for Li Shuo... he is currently stationed in Jiange, so it is unlikely that he would invite him over.

Li Yuan was very close to the Jingliuyi. Only half an hour later, Zhao Jia rushed over immediately. He was wearing the official uniform of the Jingliuyi. After walking into Li Yuan, he bowed to Li Xin from afar.

"What's wrong with the Marquis? Let Shen Gang come to me personally?"

He was originally in charge of the government affairs of the government affairs, but when he saw Shen Gang coming to invite him in person, he was so shocked that he quickly put down his affairs and rushed to Li Yuan.

Li Xin didn't say much, but handed the news that Shen Gang sent to Zhao Jia again. Zhao Jia had the ability to see ten things at a glance. After only glanced at him twice, he immediately glanced at Li Xin with a serious brow.

"Marty, the north... is fighting?"

Li Xin frowned slightly: "The brothers over there are saying for the time being that the army that Yuwen Zhao has assembled is advancing towards Jimen Pass, but according to this situation, the fight will definitely start. The key is to see how Zhenbei Army responds, whether it can stop Yuwen Zhao, or how long it can be stopped."

Speaking of this, Marquis Jing'an looked at the north side and shook his head: "According to the speed of our intelligence transmission, this letter has happened half a month ago. At this time, the two sides probably had to fight for the first time, but we are far away. What's going on, and we have to wait for the news a little bit."

Zhao Jia sat opposite Li Xin and looked up at Li Xin.

"Mr. Marquis, you... have led the Zhenbei Army and have also contacted Yuwen Zhao. If the fight really starts, what does the Marquis think of the situation?"

“Not very optimistic.”

Li Xin said helplessly: "The life of Zhenbei Army is not particularly easy. With the same ministry, the equipment obtained is slightly worse than that of the Yunzhou Army. In my opinion, as long as Yuwen Zhao is willing to die, it is only a matter of time before he can take down Jimen Pass."

Speaking of this, Mr. Li looked at the north and said slowly: "It's not long before Yuwen Zhaogang unified the Yuwen Ministry. This is the time when he is most willing to die."

The reason is very simple. Although the Yuwen tribes were unified, the three Yuwen tribes before also respected Yuwen Zhao as king, but there was a difference between closeness and distantness. After all, they were not the direct line. As long as Yuwen Zhao had a little selfish desire, he would put people from other tribes in front and his own direct line behind when fighting, so that even if the war was consumed, he would not feel distressed.

More importantly, the more powerful the other three tribes died, the more stable he would sit as the King of Yan in the northern part, which would be more conducive to his thorough control of the entire Xianbei tribe.

Zhao Jia pondered for a moment, then looked up at Li Xin and said, "Marty, if Jimen Pass is broken, we can take this opportunity to leave Shu."

The Southwest Army has been training for so many years and has created so many thunders. Whether it is Mu Ying or Zhao Jia, they have the idea of ​​leading troops out of Shu. Li Xin came to Jincheng after the New Year, and was discussing with them when the opportunity to leave Shu.

But when he heard Zhao Jia's words, Li Xin frowned: "Brother You'an, the Xianbei tribe is a foreign race, a foreign race driven out of the pass by Master Ye."

"We can take advantage of others' dangers when doing things, but it's not good to take advantage of the dangers of summer to seek personal gain?"

Zhao Jia frowned and said, "Marquis, the sage said that if the barbarians enter China, they will be China. The Xianbei nobles have been in the pass for more than a hundred years, and most of them have been sinicized. They are not considered ignorant aliens. At this time, everyone uses their own methods, not as serious as the Marquis said."

Li Xin shook his head.

"Brother You'an took it for granted. If it were the Xianbei people more than 40 years ago, there would be no problem saying this. But more than 40 years have passed. The nobles of the Northern Zhou Dynasty have become Xianbei people again, and there is a shortage of supplies outside the pass. These people came to attack the city pass of the Jin Dynasty without fear of death, just to steal things."

As he said that, Li Xin glanced at Zhao Jia.

"The saint also said that if China enters barbarians, they will barbarians. Although these Xianbei people speak Chinese, they are still Xianbei people in their bones. Once they occupy the north, things will be out of control."

Zhao Jia frowned slightly, he glanced at Li Xin and asked, "The Marquis thought that all kinds of situations would be easier to deal with?"

"Yuwen Zhao entered the pass, but stopped a hundred miles outside Jimen Pass, so that even if they were in trouble, the scale would not be too large and they could do everything possible."

"Who should clean up?"

Zhao Jia raised her head and glanced at Li Xin lightly.
