Chapter 347: Yue Mu (II)
Huang Zong said to Han Shizhong: "Han Shuai, now that the war between the north and the south, the chance of victory or defeat is no longer on the frontline battlefield, but inside my Great Song Dynasty, why?" Although the Han army won one victory after another, its strength was exhausted; Although our army has repeatedly retreated, it has continued its stamina. Wait for Huang to try to analyze it for Han Shuai.
"The emperor of the Northern Dynasty used the northerners to invade the south, the northerners were cold-tolerant but not heat-resistant, and the southerners were not heat-resistant. Otherwise! Zhe's desire to borrow the time of the day, with his back to the north wind and the south is the main reason. Therefore, it is not surprising that it has won the battle in the autumn and winter, but now the winter cold has passed, the heat is gradually rising, and the offensive of the Han army has been exhausted. ”
Han Shizhong nodded and said, "Good!" ”
Huang Zong received Han Shizhong's words of commendation, raised his eyebrows, and continued: "The so-called 'northerners ride horses, southerners sail boats' - this is the ability of nature. The people of the southeast island of the Han army can sail on the sea, but they are not the main force of the southern invasion, and they have been curbed by Han Shuai, and their northern men and horses can be invincible in the plains, and may not be able to win between the southeast hills and rivers and lakes. Liu Qi and Chong Yansong are good at fighting mountain warfare, and Zhi Yanchong does not use it to try two rivers, but uses Xiao Tienu to ride a horse to knock on the pass, so Xiao Tienu has a reputation for a hundred miles, and it is difficult to enter an inch when the Wu brothers deserve it! The Wu brothers are backed by the benefits of the mountains and rivers, there are victories and no defeats, just wait for Xiao and the strength to be exhausted to enjoy the fame of the Han Dynasty, why go easy and difficult, and give up the prestige of the hundred worlds and apostasy and evil? Therefore, the rumors of the two and Liu Qi secretly communicating with each other must be rumors! The west road of the Han army is unfavorable, and the east road also has hidden worries. Between Bian and Chen, there is a flat river, so it is difficult for our army to compete here, but now the battlefield is gradually moving south, the hills are increasing, the water network is becoming denser, the hooves of the northerners are useless to use their strengths, and the feet of the southerners can make the best of their advantages, now our army has stabilized its position, when the heat comes, if the victory or defeat is decided in Xiangdeng and Huaixi, it is a reenactment of the water, if it is decided in Dongting and Hankou, it is the reappearance of the red cliff! ”
Han Shizhong nodded again and again: "Great goodness!" ”
Huang Zong was in high spirits and continued: "In the army of the Northern Dynasties, the most famous one is Xiao Cao's second lineage, Xiao Hu and Cao Han, Xiao Hu is in the north and Cao Han is in the south. If the Cao clan is still there and presides over the southern invasion, it is difficult to say victory or defeat between the north and the south. Now that the Cao family has passed away, the emperor of the Northern Dynasty does not need to be a commander and personally conquers, one is that there is no most suitable marshal to be available, the second is to rely on his ability, and the third is to take the merit of the marshal, and the internal worries have been buried. and his selfish desires, promoting Hu and suppressing the Han, Liu Qi abandoned it and did not use it, and Chong Yansong, Wang Yan, Zhao Li, etc. turned into the rear army to carry grain, the strikers were all Hu people, dogs and horses, and the main force was all northern Han. Between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, I Han people are the masters, Zhe Yan Chong is the master of the guest offense, abandon the long and short, can not kill Yue Shuai under the city of Bianliang, and has been fascinated by the vanity of the previous winning streak so far, if you don't pull your feet in time, then Cao Cao, Fu Jian's trouble is not far away! There is no doubt that the northern army will be defeated, and now it is just an opportunity. But my Great Song Dynasty is not worry-free, but those who are worried do not believe in the king, will not be in harmony, and the commanders will not be in tune! If the southeast is unstable and the imperial court is suspicious, Marshal Yue will not be able to successfully spread even if he has the talent to make up for the sky. Therefore, Huang Zong just said that the opportunity for victory or defeat is no longer on the front battlefield, but within my Great Song Dynasty. As long as His Majesty and Zhu Zaizhi can still trust Yue Shuai, and the situation in the southeast is not overturned, then Huguang will be complete, and Henan can also be planned, and even subvert the Han Dynasty with this war, and it is not impossible to cross the Yellow River to take the old frontier! ”
Han Shizhong was overjoyed and said: "I also know that the Han army is worried, but I don't know how Yue Shuai plans to do it. Huang Confidential can spread the word to Yue Shuai on my behalf: The situation in the southeast has me! If Ren Dejing dares to cross the Huai River, I also want all his military horses to drown in this river. As for the affairs of the DPRK and China, I will do my best when I am close at hand, and I hope that the princes of Jiankang will not be confused by the current power of the Northern Army, and will destroy the Great Wall before the victory or defeat is decided! ”
The two talked about many specific matters, and the soldiers were almost finished, and Huang Zongcai mentioned that Lin Yu and Lin Ling's coffins were trapped in Chongmingao, and Han Shizhong was surprised: "This Zhu Jing! It's really bold not to report such a thing! ”
Huang Zong asked: "Doesn't this Zhu Jing listen to the general's orders?" ”
Han Shizhong said: "This person has the length of the Rogue Pirate and the shortness of the Rogue Pirate Bandit!" I use his strengths to control his weaknesses, so I have made many military exploits in the past six months, but after his power has grown, he has become dominant, and it seems that I have to find an opportunity to beat him. ”
Huang Zong said: "However, the current situation is dangerous and slight, and the affairs of the Lin family need to be skillful and not forceful, otherwise this Zhu Jinggou will jump off the wall in a hurry, and I am afraid that it will be a big mistake." ”
Han Shizhong said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have my own plans." ”
On the second day, he sent a deputy general to lead a water division, according to the usual inspection in Zhu Jingzhai, Zhu Jing opened the village to greet, everything was as before, until the deputy general sent by Han Shizhong suddenly asked about the matter, Zhu Jingzhi could not answer, the deputy general immediately decided, and without waiting for Zhu Jing to react, he took away the Lin family and Lin Ling's coffin. Huang Zongchao was in the army, found a gap to meet Wang Zuo, and was shocked after getting a secret from Wang Zuo: "There is such a thing!" I'll go back and tell the marshal!" ”
After Han Shizhong mastered Lin Yu and his party, the generals or persuaded him to take the strange goods, Han Shizhong said: "We are not robbers, Lin Dangjia has many good deeds in the southeast, we detain her coffin as a strange goods, and spread it out for fear of attracting criticism from the north and south." Moreover, Yang Yingqi has always been careful in his work, and he is willing to let this son go to Fujian to bury his mother, but there must be something behind it! Recklessness may lead to consequences! ”
Before he finished speaking, he heard Prime Minister Qin Hui send someone to ask for a meeting, and Han Shizhong said with a heaval: "Come so fast!" Han Shizhong admired Qin Hui, the minister who was appointed in danger, and thought that he had the virtue of Li Gang and the talent of Xie An, but with the development of the situation, he slowly became more and more unpleasant to Qin Hui's words and deeds, and the prime minister went farther and farther away, but the prime minister sent someone to come, and he was not easy to see.
Soon people entered, but it was a young man with heroic eyebrows and graceful eyes, Han Shizhong liked it when he saw it, and said in his heart: "I don't mean that Qin Hui has such a descendant." "Didn't ask about business, first asked the other party's name and family history, this young man answered according to the truth, it turned out to be Qin Hui's henchman Shen Cai's nephew, the name is Zhe, the word is Mingyuan, the number is Yushan, and he is from Deqing County, Huzhou. Han Shizhong asked about business again, and sure enough, Shen Zuozhe came here to do the matter of Lin Ling's coffin, Han Shizhong smiled and said: "Yang Gong of the Northern Dynasty is really powerful, and the prime minister of my dynasty is also smart. ”
Shen Zuozhe was not angry or angry when he heard this, he just smiled, Han Shizhong felt quite strange, but he didn't want to ask more, he only said: "People die greatly, I was going to send someone to escort the coffin of Lin Dangjia to Fujian, but now the prime minister is going to take over, and this handsome man is happy to watch." ”
Shen Zuozhe said again: "I heard that Yue Xuanfu's confidential text Huang Zong is here, and I would like to see it." ”
Han Shizhong said curiously: "The prime minister has something to do with Huang Zong? ”
Shen Zuozhe said with a smile: "Although Zuozhe is here to pass a message to the prime minister, in fact, he is in Yue Shuai's curtain right now, and Huang Zong is a colleague. ”
Han Shizhong felt even more strange, but he couldn't understand the young man's position for a while, so he didn't want to ask more, so he said that this was the case, and allowed him to meet Huang Zong.
Huang Zong was already preparing to return to the west, but he didn't expect to see Shen Zuozhe before leaving, and he held hands with him to say goodbye, Shen Zuozhe didn't answer the whisper, and said bluntly: "It's not a good thing!" The Prime Minister was discussing Yi Shuai's affairs, and I learned from my uncle that I was anxious! It's too late to go to Xiangyang to ask the marshal, so I take this opportunity to look for you, hoping to discuss a countermeasure. ”
Huang Zong was shocked: "What! This...... How does this make! I've just gotten a big secret, and now is the chance to turn the tide between the North and the South! If it is Yi Shuai before the battle, then, I am afraid that all the previous arrangements will be in vain! ”
Shen Zuozhe asked what the secret was, and Huang Zong said: "Someone in the north wants to sell us the truth of the Han army." ”
Shen Zuozhe's face changed and said, "Be careful of deception!" ”
Huang Zongdao: "This kind of thing is hard to believe, but from all kinds of indications, I think this matter is eighty percent true, as for whether to be trusted or not, we have to wait for the marshal to decide!" So I was in a hurry to go back, but Jiankang had such an accident, but how good is this! ”
Shen Zuozhe said: "Brother Huang has a strange plan, but Prime Minister Qin doesn't trust you, I am too young and too young, I can only mediate the contradiction at the subsection, and even my uncle refuses to listen to me in such a major matter!" Not to mention Prime Minister Qin! ”
Huang Zong groaned for a long time and shouted, "There is! ”
Shen Zuozhe hurriedly asked, "What?" ”
Huang Zongdao: "There is a person who is about to enter the industry and is doing business, and only he may be able to tactfully handle this matter." Shen Zuozhe asked who it was, and Huang Zong said, "Xue Bi." ”
"Him?" Huang Zongyan frowned when he heard this: "Although this old slippery head is talented, it's a pity that his character is really not good, I heard my uncle say that this time he was transferred to Beijing most likely to promote his official." Now that Jiankang is in such a situation, will he really help? ”
"Not really." Huang Zongdao: "This old guy is a little sleek, but he has a very far-sighted vision, I can only seek the army, he can still seek the country outside the army, and the marshal often tells me in private, although Staff Officer Xue has no pine and cypress strength, and is suspected of being a wall grass, but deep down he still has a country." Even though he is expected to be promoted to Beijing this time, he is still the general staff of our Yuejia Army after all, and his success or failure is related to his honor and disgrace. I expect that if he knew about it, he would try to make it back, and only he could try to do it! ”
Shen Zuozhe said: "Okay, I'll go back to Jiankang to find him, you go back to Xiangyang to see Marshal Yue quickly, Jiankang will do my best, even if I can't change Prime Minister Qin Cheng's Yi Shuai proposal, at least it will be delayed until the battle on the front line has a turnaround." However, the proposal of 'fighting in Dongting and Chibi' that you said before is definitely not feasible, even if you are sure, it is impossible for Jiankang to have this patience! ”
Huang Zong sighed and said, "I can save it!" ”
After the two said goodbye, Huang Zong went directly to Xiangyang, and Shen Zuozhe came to Jiankang, and sure enough, he found Xue Bi.
Xue Bi was the staff officer of the Yuejia Army (this position was equivalent to the chief of staff of later generations), and he had a very high status in the army, and was one of the few figures in the Yuejia Army. He is also relatively old, fifteen or sixteen years older than Yue Fei, and his understanding of the officialdom and political situation is unmatched in the Yue family's army, he is sleek and sophisticated, and he can cooperate with Yue Fei in the army, and has a close relationship with Qin Hui and others in the court. Although Shen Zuozhe was born in a eunuch family, and his uncle's conduct and morality were also suspected of treachery, he himself was an angry young man, and he was very puzzled that Xue Bi could maintain a good relationship with people with completely different temperaments and behaviors, and even doubted his position. However, in terms of Xue Bi's status and ability, he is indeed the best candidate to solve the current crisis of the Yue family's army.
After Shen Zuozhe saw Xue Bi, he said that the Prime Minister Yi Shuai's discussion and Huang Zong's secret of the Northern Dynasty were told, Xue Bi first made a sad mood after hearing Yi Shuai's discussion, and heard that someone in the Northern Country wanted to sell the truth and couldn't help but be happy, after Shen Zuozhe finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly remember something, his face turned sad again, and finally returned to no joy and worry-free, stroking the sparse beard on the two chins and said: "Before the battle, Yi Shuai is a taboo for soldiers, Your Majesty is a person who gets out of the huma quagmire and flies for nine days, and he still understands military affairs, as long as this matter is handled properly, There's plenty of room for tactfulness. If the news obtained by Huang Zong is true, our army can be expected to win a great victory. However, after the big victory, it is difficult to predict the blessings and misfortunes. ”
Shen Zuozhe thought to himself: "If you can win a big victory, everything will be easier to do after that!" What's so hard to predict! Then he said: "The top priority is how to dissuade the prime minister's Yi Shuai's scheme!" In my opinion, it is better to reveal a little bit of the news that Huang Zong got to the Prime Minister's Mansion, if the Prime Minister knows that a big victory is in sight, he will be able to fully support it! ”
Xue Bi coughed and said, "No!" Shen Zuozhe obeys orders! ”
Shen Zuozhe was stunned for a moment, and then listened to Xue Bi say: "Huang Zong's secret to you, if you don't have my permission, you must not reveal it to a third party!" Even if His Majesty summons him, if he doesn't ask, he can't say it! If not, the military order will be disposed of! ”
Xue Bi is the staff officer of the Yue family's army, although he is expected to be promoted, but as long as he is not officially transferred for a day, he will be Shen Zuozhe's superior, and he can't help but accept the order when Yue Fei is not present.
After Shen Zuozhe received the order, Xue Bi said again: "As for how to resolve this Yi Shuai's discussion, it needs to be two-pronged. I'll go and see the prime minister in person, but you also have to help. Come over with your ears. Shen Zuozhe stepped forward, and Xue Bi said in a low voice: "You will go to see your uncle Shen Gai, say this and this, say this and that." ”
Shen Zuozhe raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and was embarrassed: "This ...... This ......"
Xue Bi said: "What? ”
Shen Zuozhe said: "I can't say such things!" ”
Xue Bi said: "If you can't say it, you have to say it!" In order not to show your flaws in front of your uncle, it is best to practice beforehand. Hum! State affairs, political affairs, and military affairs are not making a fuss, and they are not just blindly righteous and awe-inspiring! ”
Shen Zuozhe was helpless, so he had to sigh and say, "Yes." ”
After Shen Zuozhe left, Xue Bi summoned his nephew Xue Ji again and said, "You go to Xiangyang quickly and bring me an important letter to Yue Shuai." He ordered Xue Jixuan to polish the paper and ink, he was a talented man with a good understanding of all faces, but how to write this letter was a lot of thought, and he handed it to Xue Jixuan after three changes: "This letter must be handed over to Yue Shuai by hand, and it cannot be faked by others, if there is an accident, it is better to burn it!" ”
Xue Jixuan agreed, said goodbye to his uncle and walked away two steps, and was called back by Xue Bi and said, "Wait! After hesitating for a long time, he took the letter back and burned it, and then said to his nephew, "Let's bring a message." Regardless of the nephew's suspicion of his words and deeds, he said word for word: "You can listen to the following words for me, and it is easier not to convey them to the marshal!" You convey to the marshal: If you win a great victory this time, the Han army will not chase it, Henan will not take it, the Yellow River must not be crossed, and the great achievement must not be lived! Otherwise, there may be a catastrophe overnight, and it will be mistaken for state affairs. Remember, remember! ”
