Li Ze took out a few copies of the fold from the desk, spread them out in front of him, and looked at the people: "Weizhou Pei Ju has made an excerpt, and said that on the border recently, there has been a matter of people fleeing to our side in the territory of the pseudo-Liang jurisdiction. The Liang army besieged the border many times, and the people were seriously killed and wounded. ”

He spread out another excerpt and said: "Shi Zhuang, the general of the Right Weiwei, played Liang Han's excerpt on his behalf. Liang Han said in the excerpt that the Liang army crossed the border many times in order to intercept these people, so he also led his soldiers and horses to attack many times and won a lot of people. He even approached the edge of the Yellow River for a time, and saw with his own eyes that some people were chased by the Liang soldiers, and they jumped into the Yellow River in a hurry, and there were countless people who were drowned in the water, and the situation was very miserable. ”

opened the third excerpt, "There are also excerpts from Hezhong Mansion, and there are also escapees." ”

After closing these folds, Li Ze said: "The drought for several months is only a reduction in grain production on our side, and we can pass it if we hold on, but Guanzhong is only afraid that there will be a large-scale famine." There are signs of this, but this is only the beginning. ”

Zhang Hui on the side also nodded and said: "It's still just a drought, and the impact is not as fundamental as Li Xiang said, if there will be a locust plague coming soon, then there will be a big problem with the autumn harvest." Li Xiang, I once saw a locust plague, that was almost 30 years ago, locusts covered the sky and the sun, and everywhere they passed, not a single grass grows. ”

Wang Mingyi said with a smile on the side: "We have already made arrangements here, the more chaotic Guanzhong is, isn't it better for our side?" ”

Li Ze glanced at Wang Mingyi, a little crying and laughing.

Han Qi coughed dryly and said, "Wang Shilang, if there is really a locust plague, no matter how we kill it here, it will not be clean, besides, Guanzhong is together, God knows which way they will fly when the time comes?" Could it be that after these locusts finished eating Guanzhong, they looked at us, and the emperor was frightened, and turned around and went south? What if they are lawless, or if they want to go all the way north? ”

The room burst into laughter.

Wang Mingyi's face flushed, he has been clothed and fed since he was a child, and he really doesn't know about these things. In his eyes, the locust was just a small worm, occasionally hungry, new, and fried a few.

Cao Xin groaned: "Li Xiang, we can naturally manage the affairs on our side and can do it well, but what should we do about the affairs in the south?" ”

"Zhang Gong." Li Ze pondered for a moment and said: "You write a letter to Jing Xiang and warn him, this person is still a capable person, and now Dai Chao has gone to Shannan East Road, Chang'an City, he has no elbows, or can minimize the hidden dangers of this matter." ”

"It works. Aside from this person's virtue, he still has the ability to do things, and he also has knowledge. Zhang Hui nodded.

"Pinning hope on the other party's hands is a bit illusory in the end." Li Ze sighed: "But if you can reduce one disaster, you will have one disaster." If something really happens, we still have to deal with it ourselves. In addition to the things that Jin Shaoqing said before, Sinong Temple also vigorously called on the people to have more sheep, chickens and ducks! This matter should be done as soon as possible, and two months will pass, which is the time for the chickens and ducks to grow. ”

Si Nong Temple Zhengqing Liu Xin arched his hand and said yes.

Han Qi stood up and said, "Li Xiang, you must also deal with it militarily." In this matter, we can't have too much hope for the pseudo-Liang side, now where they have already appeared famine, if they suffer another locust plague, it will inevitably make the situation worse, and when the time comes, their way to deal with it, the simplest, is war. Of course, they have two options, one is to go south, which they are doing now, and the other, which is to go north, to come and hit us. ”

"I can't get it." Wang Mingyi laughed: "Come one, kill one, come two, kill a pair." ”

Han Qi ignored Wang Mingyi, but continued: "In the eyes of the pseudo-Liang Zhuwen and Jingxiang, the south is just a disease of scabies, and we are his mortal enemies. With Zhu Wen's outlaw temperament, and Jing Xiang's risky temperament that is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is most likely to attack us first at this time of life and death. ”

"What the Han Military Department said is very reasonable!" Li Ze nodded in agreement: "They attack first, and if they win, they will be able to loot the assets in our territory for their use, and buy them time to buffer." If you win, you can win the strategic initiative. Therefore, on top of the military, we must also deal with it. Han Bingbu, tell me what you think. ”

Han Qi said: "Li Xiang doesn't want to start a big war now. But it seems to me that this is the right opportunity to start preparing for war now, and even to fight a war of encroachment, and in a few months, a catastrophe will be the same as a large-scale attack. First with Shi Zhuang, Tian Ping two armies stormed Tianping Cao Xuan, with Liu Chenglin, You Yong two armies stormed Gonghai, after taking these two places, several armies, you can go straight to Zhu Wen's nest Xuanwu, break Xuanwu, take Luoyang, and approach Tongguan. This is one way, and the other way is to cross the Yellow River from the Yuncheng Basin with Tu Lichun's department, and directly hit Chang'an. Such a two-way attack can ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

"I'm against it!" Gongsun Changming Huo Ran stood up and said: "This strategy seems to be appropriate, but in fact, in the current situation, there is no possibility of realization. ”

"Why is it impossible to achieve it?" Han Qi said angrily: "I know Li Xiang's thoughts, Li Xiang is afraid that this battle will be delayed for a long time, suffering the people, or killing and wounding many people, but how can there be no dead in a war?" Even if the people suffer for a few years now, as long as this battle is won, we will retake Luoyang Chang'an, destroy the pseudo-Liang, and then compensate the people well. With our current strength, we can stand it, but the pseudo-beam can't stand it. ”

Gongsun Changming sneered: "Whoever said that we must be sure to win this battle!" Tianping, Gonghai, Xuanwu, Zhongwu and Wuning, these places are the core ruling areas of the pseudo-Liang Zhuwen, as long as we move, it will inevitably cause a strong backlash from the other party, and in these places, we will suffer the most powerful counterattack. In three or two years, if you want to take these places so that you can take Luoyang and enter Tongguan, how difficult it is, but I am afraid that when the time comes, the people will suffer in vain, and the people on both sides will be miserable, and there will be no one for thousands of miles, but it is still a stalemate. At that time, what will you do to fight Tongguan? ”

"These places were originally meant to attract the attention of pseudo-Liang, and Tu Lichun's part is the main force for us to take Chang'an!" Han Qi shouted

"Joke, we know that attacking from the Yuncheng Basin can directly hit Chang'an, but Zhu Wen can not know? At that time, as long as we can't successfully defeat the enemy in Henan, your two-sided attack strategy will be a dead letter. Gongsun Changming did not give in.

"Gongsun Changming, fighting a war is risky, if you don't take any risks, how can you win? In this world, how can there be a 100% sure battle to win, as long as there is 5 points of hope, you can give it a try, and if there is 60% hope, you should go all out. Han Qi forced his eyes on Gongsun Changming and refused to let him go.

Li Ze watched coldly, watching Han Qi and Gongsun Changming glaring at each other like cocks, smiled, and said: "Cao Ministry, although you are now a civil official, you are also a veteran, can you tell me, is this strategy of the Han Military Department feasible?" ”

Cao Xin stood up and arched his hand: "Li Xiang, Zhu Wen pseudo-Liang, although the decline is in danger, but its strength is still strong, in the past few years, since the Xuanwu army, except for the defeat in a battle with us in Luzhou, in other directions, has not tasted defeat!" Their hearts are still there. This famine naturally had a great impact on the people of the pseudo-Liang, but for Zhu Wen's army, I don't think the impact was great, and when the war was together, he would inevitably plunder the people for his own use, and in the end, it only suffered the people, not only their people, but also our own people. ”

Yang Kai also stood up, "I'm against it too." Now from the information from all aspects, the Zhu family is not stable, the dispute between Zhu Youyu and Zhu Youzhen has become more and more obvious, Zhu Youyu shrank aside and watched coldly, but this person is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If we attack on a large scale at this time, under the pressure of powerful external forces, the Zhu clan will inevitably unite and fight against us together. But if we stand still, we only assume a defensive posture or even take the initiative to show goodwill. In the absence of external pressure, internal strife is bound to intensify. I think the best time for us to send troops is after they have started to kill each other among themselves. ”

"If there is no internal turmoil among the enemy, will we just wait dryly?" Han Qi said angrily.

"If the enemy does not cause trouble, we will cause them to cause trouble. At the same time, we are in Henan and other places, and we can slowly encroach little by little. Erosion little by little. Yang Kai sneered: "If you want to defeat a strong enemy in a battle, it is originally a dream. Now we don't need to gamble all our net worth at all, we just need to play steadily, and over time, we will definitely be able to crush the opponent, so why take risks now? ”

After listening to the argument for a long time, all the high-ranking officials in the room echoed in unison.

The status quo is that the North is now firmly overpowering the South militarily and economically, and although it has not yet gained a complete advantage, it is only a matter of time.

Since the problem can be solved in time, the strategy proposed by Han Qi is completely unnecessary.

This strategy itself is not a problem, and it is the only strategy to attack Chang'an from two sides, and the problem lies in the fact that the two sides are now almost evenly matched militarily.

Han Qi looked around and sighed, he didn't have a helper, and there was no one.

Xue Ping went to the Western Regions, Tian Lingzi entertained Xiang Zhen and Xiang Da Girl in Zhenzhou, Qin Zhao is now in a secluded home, although he still has a title, but he has become a loose official with no position and no power.

He became a loner.
