One thousand and seventy-six Guo Peng wants to drive the expedition in person
According to the plan, the Wei army made a three-way northern expedition.
All the way from the western front, all the way from the eastern front, both of which are flanks, in order to cut off the escape route of the Xianbei people, so that after the Chinese army defeated the Xianbei people, they plundered on a large scale and killed the Xianbei people in one fell swoop.
The main force is the Chinese army, and the task is to go up directly, with a simple and unpretentious tactical style, and the Xianbei people are tough.
In the final analysis, when it comes to the current level of national strength of the Wei Empire, the Xianbei people are relatively far away and have strong mobility, so they need the Wei Empire to calculate well and prepare carefully, so as not to pounce on the air and waste all the preparations.
If you really want to fight, no one thinks that the Wei army will lose.
The purpose of this set of tactics is not how to fight, but how to grasp and expand the results of the battle, and to wipe out the Xianbei people to the greatest extent, seize them all, and not let one go.
Therefore, Guo admired this set of tactics, recognized this set of tactics, and decided to personally lead the army as the Chinese army, personally lead the army to face the Xianbei people, and defeat them head-on.
The other generals commanded the Eastern Route Army and the Western Route Army, and cooperated with Guo someone.
He wants to drive the expedition himself.
Guo had long planned to be the protagonist in this battle again, and after many years, he once again personally commanded the army to fight.
In the early years, when the generals under him had not yet grown up, Guo personally commanded the troops to fight on the battlefield, and the countless enemies he fought screamed.
Later, when the younger brothers grew up, Guo gradually retreated to the second line and no longer went to the battlefield in person.
However, this does not mean that Guo no longer has the will and determination to go to the battlefield and fight the enemy.
Guo is forty years old, no longer young, and he is already a grandfather in this era, but the so-called martyrs are in their twilight years, and Guo is not even in his twilight years, to be precise, he is in his prime.
With the heart of a strong man, Guo Mou, who has been exerting his skills in the conspiracy field for a long time, also wants to return to the place where he started.
Go back to the very beginning, reminisce about the hardships you have had along the way, and show your strength again.
This battle must also be led by Guo Peng himself.
With the power of great victory, he can gain prestige beyond that of previous emperors, and gain supreme prestige that is unrivaled within the empire.
With this prestige, he was able to suppress the most powerful opposition within the empire and begin to implement his long-brewing strategic plan, kicking off the decisive battle with the soldiers.
Xianbei, from the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, in the eyes of the people of the Central Plains, is another Xiongnu.
Although Guo Peng's strength prevented the Wei Empire from treating the Xianbei people the way the Western Han Dynasty treated the Huns, the threat of the Xianbei people still existed.
Completely swept away Xianbei, sealed the wolf Juxu, or Le Shi Yanran, took the heroic military exploits at the apex of the Han nation as his own, climbed to the top, and became a god-like figure of the contemporary era.
With such a magnificent prestige, casting an invincible golden body, and then promoting the punctuation revolution, I think that at least the probability of failure will not be so great.
Will it be crushed?
Will everything be lost?
Will this reincarnation come so steadily and ruthlessly?
No one knows.
But Guo has already decided to give it a try.
He established the Wei State not to make a wedding dress for the Jin.
He asked Li Shu to accumulate wealth, not to cut it as a leek for others.
His Wei is a vigorous young man, and he is definitely not an old man who is about to die.
That old decay will eventually be abandoned by him.
Even if he pays everything for this and pays the price of his life, Guo will take the Wei Empire across this abyss and move towards a new future.
The news that Guo was planning to conquer Xianbei in person reached the staff station, and the senior officials and ordinary staff officers of the staff station all showed quite surprised expressions about this.
The emperor wants to drive Xianbei in person?
How many years has the emperor not personally gone out to lead troops to fight?
And he is now the emperor, not the general of the past, although it is irreplaceable, but the meaning is completely different.
The staff officer Ling Xizhong, the staff officer's left servant Guo Jia and the staff officer's right servant Xun You jointly asked to see Guo Peng, hoping to have a good talk with Guo Peng about the royal driver's personal expedition.
"You're against me going on my own expedition?"
Guo Peng stood in the study, playing with the jade axe in his hand with a relaxed expression, looking at the three ministers in charge of the military aircraft.
"Your Majesty is the emperor, and the emperor is on the march, and the matter is very high."
Xi Zhong opened his mouth and said: "The emperor is the foundation of the country, the emperor can't be in danger, there can't be any danger, any dangerous place is not for the emperor to go, this is for the sake of the country, for the people of the entire Wei State, the risk of losing the emperor is something that no Wei people can bear." ”
Guo Peng nodded.
"However, before me, there were many emperors who drove the expedition in person."
Guo Jia took over Xi Zhong's words.
"Your Majesty, the emperor's personal expedition is by no means a trivial matter, and the minister thinks that the emperor's personal expedition needs to meet two conditions."
"You say."
Guo Peng nodded.
Guo Jia received the order, bowed down and said: "This is the first, it is helpless, the situation is extremely dangerous, the emperor has to drive the personal expedition to boost morale, if you don't do this, there is a danger of overturning, at this time, the emperor can drive the personal expedition."
The second is to have the complete certainty of victory, if you don't fight, you will win, and if you fight, you will win, so that the emperor can drive the expedition in person, because the emperor must win, not lose, once defeated, the consequences are unpredictable, these are the two conditions. ”
Guo Peng continued to nod.
Feng Xiao is reasonable, so Feng Xiao thinks that these two conditions are not available now? Now, of course, is not the time for all kinds of helplessness, will I lose? ”
Guo Peng hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Right now, the soldiers of the Xianbei people are only 100,000, and my Wei troops are at least 150,000 to 200,000, this is one, and second, my Wei army has three cavalry weapons, and the Xianbei people do not, which the Xianbei people cannot compare with me."
You've all seen the outcome of the duel between the cavalry equipped with stirrups and saddle horseshoes and the cavalry without these equipment, so I don't need to say anything more, right? If I want to go on a march, I will win, and I will win. ”
Guo Peng showed strong self-confidence.
This is the self-confidence accumulated over the years of his career.
Xi Zhong has nothing to say, Guo Jia has nothing to say, and Xun You, who has never spoken, naturally has nothing to say.
Ordinary people can't say this, but what they can say is not ordinary people.
Obviously, His Majesty the Emperor is not an ordinary person.
He joined the army at the age of nineteen, and after more than ten years of military career, His Majesty the Emperor personally commanded the army to fight on the battlefield, fought endlessly with Han and foreigners, and killed hundreds of enemies with his own hands, and personally laid down the Wei Empire.
When others say this, the three people who know the soldiers in the staff station probably don't think so, but Guo Peng said that these three people who know the soldiers obviously can't deny it.
But it's just worry, there's nothing else to say, it's just worry.
The imperial empire, the emperor's country, without the emperor, is it still a country?
They can't wait to trap Guo Peng in the palace for the rest of their lives and not let him go out, and they will do things in the palace for the rest of their lives, and they will never face any risks.
That's perfect.
