Chapter 384: Gambling

Beiliang Mountain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a vital mountain at the junction of the two major states of Henan and Yang, no matter which of these two large states, Beiliang Mountain is a battleground.

During the Second Kyushu War, Yangzhou tried all its forces to capture Beiliangshan, because this place was too important, as long as it occupied Beiliangshan, the south could retreat to the border defense, and the north could go straight to Yuzhou.

This North Liangshan can be said to be the gateway of Yuzhou, and it is the place that Yuzhou attaches the most importance to.

The north of Yuzhou is the Yellow River, which occupies the natural danger and can block Jizhou outside, and there are mountains and large lakes on the east and west sides respectively, which undoubtedly adds a lot of natural barriers.

As for the south, it is the very famous North Liangshan, the reason why it is famous, not only because it occupied an important role in the Kyushu War, but also because this North Liangshan is also one of the important places of Buddhism.

In the Second Kyushu War, Yangzhou did not arrive in time because the troops did not arrive, resulting in the collapse of the whole line, not only did Beiliangshan not be captured, but also was beaten to his hometown by the Yuzhou army.

After the end of the war, Beiliangshan has been under the jurisdiction of Yuzhou, for this place where soldiers must fight, Yuzhou has been strictly managed, not only built a lot of cities, but also gathered and stationed a lot of troops here all year round.

How important Beiliangshan is, not only Yangzhou knows, Yuzhou is also very clear, although Yuzhou is backed by the Yellow River, giving birth to a very developed agricultural civilization, but the success of Xiao He Xiao He, the shortcomings of Yuzhou are also because of the Yellow River.

The existence of the Yellow River has led to the fact that there are basically no mountains in the whole Yuzhou, it is a whole plain, if there is a war, once the North Liangshan is lost, then it can be said that Yuzhou has been half defeated.

The terrain of the plains caused the Yuzhou army to not have much way to resist the invasion of the army, so they only blocked those people outside Beiliang Mountain at the beginning, which was also the only way.

Since Chen Wang arrived in Yuzhou, he has carried out drastic reforms to the Yuzhou army, although the previous Yuzhou army is strong, but there are many shortcomings in the team.

During this time in Yuzhou, Chen Wang mainly carried out two reforms in the army.

The first is to change the deployment of troops in Yuzhou and start building military forts throughout Yuzhou, so as to realize the deployment of joint operations.

As for the second one, it is to change the number of people in each team of the Yuzhou army, and Chen Wang will position the members of each team more accurately to ensure that everyone is very clear about their responsibilities to prevent the situation of fishing in troubled waters.

These two measures, one for the sake of the overall situation, the other for the sake of improving combat effectiveness, have to be admitted that these two measures are very effective, especially in the matter of Beiliangshan, which perfectly aimed at the change of Yangzhou's military strength, resulting in Yangzhou has been in a very passive situation.

The New Year is approaching, every household is busy, although the border friction continues, but everyone has a small wish in their hearts, live a good year, Kyushu is safe.

Chen Wang stood in an attic in Chang'an City, quietly looking at the snowflakes outside, constantly rubbing his fingers.

"Why are you here alone?"

A man in a fancy costume walked over, stood beside Chen Wang, stretched out his hand to press the railing, and said, "It's all at this time, and you can still hold your breath, I really admire people like you." ”

Chen Wang shrunk his two hands into a wide sleeved robe, didn't look at Chen Sheng's slightly underbeaten face, and said softly: "What is there to calm down and not be able to hold your breath, win, everything will be fine, lose, anyway, I have nothing, the person who loses will only be you, Governor Chen, so what do I have to worry about?" ”

Chen Sheng scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said, "The truth is such a truth, but-"

"Haven't you heard anyone say that war and sword training are actually the same thing, who wins and who loses until the last moment, who can make up their minds?" Chen Wang turned his head, stared at Chen Sheng and said, "Don't despise yourself, and don't look down on your opponent, this is what we can do." ”

"Sir, I have learned."

Chen Wang smiled, not wanting to deal with Chen Sheng at all.

"If we do this, will we suffer from the enemy?" Chen Sheng saw that Chen Wang didn't speak, so he took the initiative to provoke the topic. "If Jizhou is still the same as before, I am not afraid of anything, the key is that now that Gu Changan is in charge of the Sword Mansion, I have to consider the relationship between him and Xiao Bai."

Chen Wang's face was a little gloomy, and he stared at Chen Sheng and said, "What do you mean that you were not afraid of like that before?" Does the governor think that if he had launched a war against Yangzhou a few years ago, according to my grandfather's temper, he would definitely not have protected Yangzhou, right? ”

Chen Sheng suddenly realized the criticism in his words, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, I didn't mean that, I said Qiu Renxia." ”

"Nothing, you're right." Chen Wang suddenly laughed, a very sad smile, like a dog. "Don't worry, it's not a question of whether it will be, but a question of how much Jizhou will help Yangzhou."

Chen Sheng frowned and said in surprise: "Then ...... we still have it?" ”

"You still don't know what kind of people the two of them are, let's not talk about Xiao Bai, just from the things back then, do you think that once you have the opportunity, Gu Changan will spare Yuzhou?" Chen Wang looked at the snowflakes in the sky and said softly: "As for Xiao Bai, I'm afraid it will only be more crazy than Gu Changan, and when I leave, I want to tell you again and again, I must not be at a low point Xiao Bai." ”

"A long time ago, countless people despised him, underestimated him, and looked down on him, and in the end? Who would have thought that that inconspicuous teenager at the beginning would now become the governor of a state? You must be more vigilant against him, his mind is really extraordinary. ”

Chen Sheng nodded and replied, "But our plan, is it really possible?" ”

"You're a little disappointed in me, aren't boys supposed to be born to gamble?" Chen Wang sneered and said, "Are you afraid?" Afraid of losing your possessions? ”

"Bet on it!"

"Don't worry, I really know Xiao Bai's temper too well." Chen Wang smiled confidently. "He's a guy who doesn't bow his head easily, which is both a strength and a weakness."

"Will they think of this method too?" Chen Sheng asked.

Chen Wang's face was calm, looking at the gloomy sky, and he said with some uncertainty: "According to that guy's strange thoughts, I have to admit that your worries are very necessary. ”

Chen Sheng immediately frowned, his face full of worry.

"It's just that I won't give him this chance."
