Chapter 295: Where are the reinforcements!

Xia Xun thought nervously, the person in front of him was not an innocent child like Zhu Yunwen, Fang Xiaoru drew a beautiful blueprint for Zhu Yunwen that was impossible to realize, and Brother Wei was fluttering, but Brother Di was different, he was very jīng Ming, so he couldn't bluff him, and Zhu Di is now facing a tenfold enemy, what kind of strategy is the right one to adopt?

Xia Xun slowly sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "Beiping is where His Highness's foundation is, and there must be no room for loss, otherwise the foundation will be gone, the army's spirit will be lost, and the defeat of His Highness will be inevitable!" ”

Zhu Di nodded heavily and said: "Yes, the problem is here, no matter what Beiping is, it must be held, but if this king guards Beiping, it will only be a matter of time before he is defeated......"

Xia Xun said: "Yes, the disparity in strength is too great, the 500,000 troops of the imperial court, even if they fill it with human lives, they can pile up a broad road directly on the city wall of Beiping, if Your Highness blindly guards Beiping, this city will become a cage for Your Highness sooner or later." ”

Zhu Di palmed his fist, made a "snap", gritted his teeth and said: "Beiping can't be unguarded, and if you keep it hard, you will fail, Wenxuan, do you have any clever plans?" ”

Xia Xun said: "To solve this problem, there is only one way, Beiping must be defended, but His Royal Highness cannot stay in the city." ”

Zhu Di was stunned, thought for a moment, and said tentatively: "What does Wenxuan mean is to send people to defend Beiping, and this king will lead the army to swim outside to contain the enemy army?" This one...... With the strength in my hands, ...... if I divide the army again, I am afraid that it will ......."

Xia Xun said: "I know, in this way, there are fewer soldiers and horses in Beiping City, and the pressure is so huge, it will be a bitter battle, a bitter war, but ......, it must be so, His Royal Highness's main army must not stay in Beiping City, waiting for Li Jiujiang to consume it little by little." It will be very difficult to defend the city, but this heavy burden, Your Highness must go out, plan things in people, and achieve things in the sky, Your Highness, there is no panacea, and there is no perfect plan to only take advantage and not suffer losses! ”

Zhu Di lowered his head and pondered for a moment, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, slowly raised his head, looked at Xia Xun, and said, "So, what should this king do when he is outside?" What should we do ...... before the fall of Beiping? ”

Xia Xun said: "Eliminate the peripheral troops of the imperial army as much as possible, cut off his wings, and delay time!" ”

"Procrastinating?"

Zhu Di's eyes flashed, and he vaguely understood something, and asked, "...... delaying time, will there be reinforcements?" ”

"Yes! We have three major reinforcements! ”

Xia Xun is used to raising a finger xìng, fortunately the fat man is not here, otherwise he doesn't know what pickled picture he has to think of again.

"The first powerful reinforcement is Tianshi!"

Zhu Di already understood, and couldn't help but smile on his face: "Yes, the 500,000 troops of the imperial court, most of them are southern soldiers, and they are not tolerant of the cold in the north, but Li Jiujiang didn't know that he was too confident when he sent his troops, thinking that Beiping could be taken overnight, or he lacked experience in fighting in the northern winter, and he didn't bring too many winter clothes. ”

Xia Xun said: "Our second powerful reinforcement is the Southern Army itself!" ”

Zhu Diqi said: "How do you say this? ”

Xia Xun said: "An army of 500,000 is certainly terrifying in wartime, but how much supply does this behemoth need to feed its horses?" Their battle line is long, but the geography of the north, His Highness's soldiers and horses are far more familiar than theirs, as long as they send troops to cut off their supply and transportation lines, when the time comes, they will have neither food nor grass nor warm clothing, and they will be defeated without a fight. ”

Zhu Di nodded again and again, and Xia Xun said again: "If Li Jinglong divides his troops to pursue His Highness, even if it is a division of troops, it is still far greater than His Highness, His Highness cannot attack hard, the southern army enters the horse, the northern army is more than a horse, His Highness should give full play to the strengths of the northern army, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbed, the enemy is tired and I fight, the enemy retreats and I chase, drag down the enemy with guerrilla tactics, advance and retreat in great strides, the enemy is deep, concentrate forces, break through each one, and destroy the enemy in the movement war!" ”

This tactic was not invented by that great man, but it was systematically sorted out and summarized in his hands, and carried forward the essence of guerrilla warfare and movement warfare in ancient and modern times. This tactic is suitable for Zhu Di's current situation.

Since Zhu Di sat in Beiping, he had never been in such a stretched situation in terms of troops, so in his consistent combat thinking, it was difficult to jump out of the confinement of combat experience formed for many years, but his opponents, those Mobei tribes are masters of guerrilla warfare and sports warfare, although Zhu Di has won repeatedly, it is difficult to eliminate these enemies.

Therefore, he only closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and he had already comprehended the jīng essence of this movement warfare and guerrilla warfare, to put it mildly, although this jīng essence of guerrilla warfare and movement warfare was told to him by Xia Xun, his understanding and comprehension were far above Xia Xun, and he couldn't help laughing loudly: "Wenxuan is resourceful, and he is really the backbone of the country, with this good strategy, Li Jiujiang's 500,000 army is not to be feared." ”

Xia Xun said: "Your Highness is careless, we do this, there is a premise, that is...... Beiping must hold on, and must hold! If Beiping loses, everything will be stopped! ”

Zhu Di looked solemn, nodded slowly, and said, "Yes!" Peiping...... Must be held! So...... What is the Third Support Army? ”

Xia Xun said: "After all, the enemy army has 500,000 people, ten times more than me, as the so-called killing of 1,000 enemies, self-loss of 800, even if Beiping can be defended, His Royal Highness has also dragged on until the cold winter season, and his own troops are almost exhausted. If not, let the southern army retreat calmly, although we won this battle, but did not hurt the vitality of the enemy army, and wait until the Ming chūn Li Jiujiang makes a comeback, what can His Highness do? Therefore, this third support army is the real reinforcement, and we still need a jīng soldier who can fight well! ”

Zhu Di asked with blazing eyes: "Where did the soldiers come from?" ”

"King Ning!"

Zhu Di shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Seventeenth brother, it's impossible!" Wen Xuan, I don't hide it from you, at the beginning of the rebellion, this king wrote a secret letter, counting the injustices and injustices of the court, and poured out the embarrassment of my brother and the kings to him, hoping that he would send troops to help, but this letter sank like a stone into the sea, and there was no reply at all. ”

Xia Xun said in his heart: "It turns out that King Yan also thought about joining forces with this brother who is close at hand. Xia Xun said: "King Ning doesn't have the courage to stand up and fight with His Highness, let's borrow his soldiers to hold grievances for the kings, King Ning should always agree, right?" ”

Zhu Di laughed and said: "How could Wen Xuan say such childish words, if the seventeenth brother borrowed troops to fight me, wouldn't it also become a rebellion of the imperial court?" If he can borrow troops, he can take the initiative to respond. ”

Xia Xun smiled and said: "Your Highness, this loan has a literary loan and a military loan, you can discuss the borrowing, or you can borrow it forcibly, it doesn't have to be King Ning willingly, right?" ”

Zhu Di was startled, a pair of eyes suddenly became black and bright, he stared at Xia Xun tightly, looked at it carefully for a long time, and saw that Xia Xun didn't seem to be joking, so he was surprised and said: "Wen Xuan really has a good courage." Now that the imperial army is pressing, this king is already too busy to take care of himself, and if the seventeenth brother doesn't come to me to make trouble, this king will be thankful, and he can still take the initiative to provoke him? If this tiger is summoned again, won't the king's situation be even worse? ”

Xia Xun frowned, and said in his heart: "It seems that King Yan has no hope at all about borrowing troops from King Ning, could it be that King Ning's soldiers were borrowed by me for him?" ”

Xia Xun thought for a moment and said: "His Royal Highness once wrote a letter to King Ning, although King Ning did not agree, but he did not see him show the letter to the court, King Ning's attitude is so ambiguous, it may not be impossible to persuade, the emperor cut the domain, and it is not only His Royal Highness who is cut, but also the brothers of the kings, the prisoners of the prisoners, the forbidden of the forbidden, the king of Ning has no complaints in his heart?" ”

Zhu Di smiled bitterly: "How can you have no complaints? Among the kings, although I Zhu Di is the most famous, it is actually because I am the oldest, and I am now the head of the kings, and I have fought against the remnants of the Mobei Yuan people many times, and my reputation is resounding. In fact, if you want to say that you really have a heavy army, I am far inferior to this seventeenth brother. The feudal state of the seventeenth brother is in Daning (now belonging to Ningcheng County, ancient Chifeng City), Guhuizhou, Liaozuo in the east, Xuanfu in the west, is an important military town, with 80,000 armor and 6,000 leather cars, among the kings, it can be called the best.

However, because of this, he is also deeply suspicious of the emperor, last year when the court issued an order to cut the military power of the kings, the seventeenth brother's military power was also forced to go out, the first few months, the emperor issued an order, his three guards and horses were also collected, last month the court also issued an order, to recall him back to Beijing to meet, because I raised troops here, I couldn't take care of him for a while, this matter is just that. ”

Xia Xun was stunned when he heard this: "King Ning has been cut off his military power, and he has been cut clean like Zhu Laosi?" This is not quite the same as my memory, it's bad, could it be that the movement of my xiǎo butterfly's wing fan is too big, and history has changed beyond recognition, so what advantage do I have at all? Wouldn't everything in the future be blacked out? ”

The next sentence of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, recalled Xia Xun's soul: "However, as the so-called Tiangao Emperor is far away, the feudal kingdom of the seventeenth brother is deep into the outside of the Saiwai, and the control of the imperial court is not very strong, especially the seventeenth brother has méng ancient three guards under his command, which are all méng Yuan cavalry jīng Rui, who defected to my Ming Dynasty at the beginning, the seventeenth brother is very good to these men, and the leader of the three guards is not so much the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, but the sī soldiers of the seventeenth brother, if the seventeenth brother says a word, They still listen. ”

When Xia Xun heard this, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately, history is not too out of shape, otherwise I really don't know what to do.

In fact, it's just that Xia Xun doesn't know the detailed history, Xia Xun doesn't want to understand what he reads, what articles and stories he sees just a few glances, he probably has an impression, many details are not graspable at all, in his memory, it is that King Yan rode into Daning alone, and Queen Ning took King Ning as a hostage, and brought King Ning's army back.

So in his understanding, the imperial court should have not touched King Ning, otherwise, why did King Yan deceive King Ning out and be able to incorporate his tens of thousands of soldiers and horses? In fact, King Ning at this time in history, like King Yan before he was forced to raise troops, was cut into a bare-pole commander, and all he had was left was a palace, and even the soldiers and horses of the three guards were taken over by the court generals.

Xia Xun said happily: "That's good, the imperial court has cut King Ning's soldiers and horses to the bare light, and even the three guards of the palace have been transferred, and he has issued an order to let him enter Beijing. If you can successfully persuade King Ning to defect to His Highness, you can persuade all the guards under King Ning to join him, and His Highness will be like a tiger. ”

Xia Xun had just presented Zhu Di with a countermeasure against the 500,000 army of the imperial court, Zhu Di regarded him as a treasure, who was willing to let him take risks, and couldn't help but be moved when he heard the words: "The seventeenth brother is willing to raise troops with me, there is still between the two, if you want to explore his mind, you don't have to go to Wenxuan to take the risk in person." If the seventeenth brother refuses to be compatible, won't it hurt your life, it is better for this king to repair another letter and persuade him. ”

Xia Xun shook his head and said: "If there is only one letter exchange, I am afraid it will be difficult to borrow King Ning's jīng soldiers, and if you go here, you can act at the opportunity and probe his mind. His Royal Highness's caring heart, the humble duty is inscribed, but to help His Royal Highness achieve the great cause, this Da Ning, the humble duty must be taken along! ”

Zhu Di hesitated: "This ......, if the seventeenth brother wants to show loyalty to the imperial court, he can decide your life and death with just one word, Wenxuan ......"

Xia Xun said resolutely: "In today's situation, where is it not dangerous? Is it in the barracks of His Royal Highness, or in the city of Beiping? If you want to be peaceful, you must take risks now, just ask His Highness to give him a token, Yang Xu is willing to be His Highness, and break into King Ning's Longtan Tiger xùe! ”

"Okay, good ......"

Zhu Di is happy and angry, he is a person who is easy to be emotionally impulsive, seeing that Xia Xun put his personal life and death aside for himself, his eyes were red with emotion, but unfortunately he is now in a precarious situation, and the future of Xu people's fame is empty, and the words of this official wish cannot be said. I also remembered that my third NV son was already ten years old, and in two years he would reach the age of marriage, if he was allowed to be his own son-in-law, he would be considered a real relative, but he married a wife again......

opened his mouth and closed his mouth, and in the end, Zhu Di could only bury his feelings in his heart, patted Xia Xun's shoulder vigorously, and shouted outside the tent: Come on, call Saihazhi to see me! ”

After a while, a member of the beard strode into the tent, this person has a leopard head and eyes, swallow jaw and tiger whiskers, looks straight and similar to Zhang Fei, as soon as he saw Zhu Di, he crossed his hands and bent over, and said in a loud voice: "Saihazhi has seen His Royal Highness!" ”

Zhu Di said to Xia Xun: "Since Wenxuan is going, let my shì guard soldier Sai Hazhi go with you, he is a méng ancient, familiar with the geography of Daning, and understands méng language, maybe it can help you!" ”

"Saihazhi ......"

Xia Xun said in his heart: "There was Ji Gang in the past, and now there is Saiha Zhi......, the third and fourth Jinyiwei commanders, and now I have seen them, and I am really destined for Jinyiwei......"

As soon as Saihazhi heard Zhu Di's words, he knew that he was going to let him follow this adult on an errand, so he hurriedly saluted Xia Xun respectfully, and said loudly: "Humble Saihazhi, I would like to be sent by Lord Yang to go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will not hesitate!" ”
