Chapter 270: Emergency Rescue
Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read.
Zhou Heng and Zhou Yi stood on both sides.
"You Aiqing want to say two things today, the first thing is that Zhenguo Gong Su Wangzhi has gone north to resist the enemy and the Northern Wei army, yesterday the military department presented a fold, saying that the Northern Wei army is brave, our army is invincible, and now retreat to Luliang, do you Aiqing have a countermeasure?"
Emperor Guangxiao asked the first question.
Before Su Wangzhi left Chang'an, Emperor Guangxiao thought that such a thing would happen, after all, this time their army was improvised.
Now this question is becoming clearer.
Su Wangzhi and the enemy army fought several times, defeated more and won less, and had no choice but to give up the northern border, and the army retreated to Luliang City to hold the pace of the Northern Wei army south.
Lvliang City is located on the west side of Lvliang Mountain, which is the gate of the Great Zhou Dynasty to the north.
If the city of Luliang is breached, the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty will drive straight in.
"The emperor's ministers suggested that we can send troops to support!"
Bai Jizhong said.
"But it takes time for my soldiers and horses in the south to support Luliang City, and it will take a maximum of two months to mobilize troops and horses from the south, and the battlefield is changing rapidly in two months, and none of us can guarantee what will happen. ”
Bao Ying felt that they could not blindly rely on the soldiers and horses of the southern border.
You must know that the soldiers and horses in the south also have to deter the Southern Chu and the Southern Tang.
There has always been a discord between them and the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Su Wangzhi's Hundred Battles Army must guard against the Southern Tang Dynasty taking advantage of the situation, as for the last time the Southern Chu returned in vain, if they knew that their northern border was tight, they might also make some moves.
Therefore, from the perspective of time and security issues in the south, we cannot rely too much on the soldiers and horses in the south.
"You can get the southern cavalry to support!"
Qu Xu made a suggestion that the infantry move slowly, and the only way to do it is to let the cavalry support it.
"That's a good idea!"
Emperor Guangxiao said.
"Your Majesty, but still don't rush. ”
Dong Ping said that even cavalry can't travel thousands of miles in a day.
"Is there really no other way?"
Emperor Guangxiao looked at everyone and asked everyone to help him come up with ideas, instead of letting everyone create difficulties for himself here.
"The emperor thinks that we can mobilize the Lantian army!" Yu Shilin said at this time.
Hearing the Lantian army, everyone looked at Emperor Guangxiao.
This is not something that everyone has not thought about, but the Lantian army is very important to Chang'an, and the Lantian army is the army that guards Chang'an.
Once the Lantian army is mobilized, Chang'an will be tantamount to having no barriers.
Therefore, the Lantian army cannot be mobilized.
"No, you can't. ”
Dong Ping stood up and said.
"The Lantian army is the army that protects Chang'an, if the Lantian army is mobilized, Chang'an will have no soldiers and horses. Dong Ping said, this matter must not be.
Since ancient times, no one has mobilized the Lantian army to fight on the border.
"The emperor's ministers also feel that what Lord Dong Ping said makes sense. ”
Bao Ying said.
Chang'an cannot do without soldiers and horses.
"Then may I ask you, if you don't mobilize the Lantian army, where are you going to mobilize the troops and horses?" Yu Shilin asked everyone rhetorically, mobilizing the Lantian army now is the best choice.
"We can mobilize troops from the local area. ”
Dong Ping said.
