Chapter 443 Military Exercise
Cao Wei walked in front unconvinced, raised his head high and looked disdainful, Di Qing followed behind him with a businesslike appearance, Yang Huaiyu was a little embarrassed, and several people didn't say a word along the way, and the atmosphere was tense and frightening.
Yang Huaiyu, who is the commander of the palace in front of the palace, has always been a mediator between the two, but today he really doesn't know what to say, the contradiction between Cao Wei and Di Qing is not personal, but a disapproval of the other party's strategy.
And what just makes Yang Huaiyu distressed is that what the two of them said is very reasonable, and it is the right of the official family who supports and abandons whom, no matter how good he Yang Huaiyu says, it is useless, fortunately, the imperial study of the official family is close at hand, as long as he enters the imperial study, he can make a judgment......
The three of them stood in front of the steps of the imperial study, tidied up their clothes a little and waited for the official family to summon them, and the three people smiled and said: "The official family summoned you and wait, quickly enter the palace to listen to the call!" ”
He had already told the official family what he had just seen and heard in the Privy Council, and the official's laughing appearance made him let go of the stone in his heart, and the emperor's mood would affect the entire forbidden ......
Zhao Zhen put down the Jianzhan in his hand and looked at Cao Wei and the others and said with a smile: "The three of you are finally here, if you don't come again, I'm afraid it will become a joke in the entire forbidden world. ”
Cao Wei and Di Qing bowed down with red faces and said, "The ministers are ashamed......"
Zhao Zhen waved his hand: "There is nothing to be ashamed of arguing about state affairs, it's just that your way is not advisable, what kind of system is it for the two to quarrel in the public room?" ”
Yang Huaiyu almost laughed out loud, the official family also saw the scene at that time, the two quarreled to the extreme and even fought, otherwise why was Cao Wei's beard so sparse, and how could Di Qing's leather belt be missing a few pieces of jade?
Of course Zhao Zhen noticed this, but he didn't break it, some arguments between the military ministers are good, which can promote the exchange between the two, although they are different in point of view, but the two sides are still sure of each other's talents, Cao Wei praised Di Qing's talents, and Di Qing sometimes praised Cao Wei's old Cheng thoughtful.
These two privy councils, one old and one young, complement each other's shortcomings and complement each other's strengths.
Zhao Zhen stood in front of the map, and pointed to the Baoding army: "This is the starting place of Taizong's Northern Expedition, when 200,000 soldiers attacked the land of smoke and clouds in four ways, Xiongzhou, Ansu Army, Guangxin Army, and Baoding Army attacked one after another, and the momentum was like a bamboo, but the grain road was lengthy and inconvenient, coupled with the greed for merit, which caused tens of thousands of elites in my Great Song Dynasty to be exhausted. ”
Cao Wei and the three of them rarely reached a tacit understanding, and after glancing at each other, they said in unison: "I wish to listen to Your Majesty's holy will!" ”
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "The dispute between Cao Shumi and Di Qing lies in the speed of sending troops, I said before that you all think it is feasible to attack Yanyun, but here is the difference?" ”
Cao Wei smiled awkwardly: "There is not much controversy between Chen and Di Hanchen, it's just that the way of using soldiers is different...... That's it......"
Di Qing said solemnly: "Indeed, as Cao Shumi said, the opinions of the ministers and others are rarely different, and the privy envoy feels that the army is slowly advancing because of the slow plan, which is the way to fight steadily and steadily, and it is also the most secure!" ”
Everyone, including Zhao Zhen, looked at Di Qing in surprise, he was notoriously stubborn in military affairs, and he almost never compromised, why did he suddenly change his mind today?
But Di Qing continued: "However, the Great Song Dynasty is not the enemy of the Liao Dynasty, if you follow the law of Cao Shumi, the army will wave its troops south before it reaches Youzhou!" At this time, there were Liao Dynasty reinforcements in the north of my Great Song Dynasty, and there were enemy cavalry in the south, which was really the enemy on the back of the belly! ”
Everyone showed clear expressions, Di Qing really lived up to expectations, but Cao Wei shook his head and said: "Hanchen is still too aggressive, if he fights steadily, the Liao reinforcements can't help my Great Song Dynasty, and the Northwest Party is just a clown." ”
"Oh? Is it? Cao Shu's envoy was so sure that the party members could not break through Yanzhou and Hongzhou and go south to Jingzhaofu? ”
Zhao Zhen's rhetorical question made Cao Wei speechless, he didn't dare to pack a ticket in front of the emperor, after all, most of the party members fought with cavalry, coming and going like the wind, and as fast as flying.
Zhao Zhen picked up the white jade paperweight on the imperial case and shook his head slightly: "The words are so full, Cao Shumi has not seen the power of the party members, and now the party items are not inferior to the party items under Li Mingde's rule, and the military system has also changed a lot. ”
Sancai picked up three secret reports from Zhao Zhen's imperial case and handed them to Cao Wei and Di Qing Yang Huaiyu, Zhao Zhen sighed and said: "We all underestimated Li Yuanhao, his military methods are very flexible, with the desert Gobi, take advantage of the advance, unfavorable retreat, lure the enemy to set up ambushes, cut off the enemy's grain route to hinder the enemy, and there are special troops such as Iron Harrier, Bubazi and Poxi to assist, it can be described as a strong army!" ”
Cao Wei and the three of them looked shocked when they read the contents of the secret report, they couldn't imagine that the army of the party had such a strong combat effectiveness, and it had even descended several countries in the Western Regions!
The three of them looked at each other and were silent, in their opinion, the party's army was not inferior to the Liao Dynasty at all, and even slightly better than the current Liao Dynasty......
Cao Wei finally admitted that his strategy was wrong, and said in a low voice: "The minister is ashamed and carried away. ”
Zhao Zhen patted him on the shoulder and said: "Knowing yourself and knowing that you are invincible in a hundred battles, this information has just come, and it is reasonable that Cao Shumi does not know." It's just that after seeing such information, do you still stick to your previous opinion? ”
Cao Wei shook his head and said truthfully: "The minister is stupid, the party's soldiers are already strong, and the Northwest Forbidden Army can defend the city but cannot attack...... A certain picture of smoke and clouds must be taken quickly! ”
Yang Huaiyu and Di Qing breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time, and the old and the young finally reached a unity.
Despite this, Di Qing still refused to give up, looked up at Zhao Zhen and said: "What is the good strategy of the official family, so that my Great Song soldiers can come quietly, after all, such a large-scale transfer of forbidden troops, even if the party and the Liao Dynasty do not deliberately collect intelligence, they will know about it......"
This is a fact, even if the Great Song Dynasty is well hidden, it can't hide from the eyes and ears of the Liao Dynasty and the party, and there will basically be secret agents in the key places of the Great Song Dynasty.
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I rewarded Chen Tong today, the reason is that he gave me a whim, the Great Song Dynasty not only wants to transfer troops and send generals, but also to make a big fanfare known to everyone!" ”
Di Qing and Cao Wei were dumbfounded, what do you mean? Yang Huaiyu frowned slightly and said, "The official family means that they can't hide it and simply tell them?" ”
It's kind of interesting!
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly: "That's exactly the truth, but if it really follows what you said, I'm afraid that if I don't need to attack the Great Song Dynasty, the Liao people and the party people will be ready!" ”
Seeing that the official family was selling Guanzi, Cao Wei, who was a privy envoy, asked anxiously: "What is the good plan of the official family?" Don't wait for me! ”
Zhao Zhen smiled: "Military exercise!" Our Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army went to Zhending Mansion in the name of military exercises......"
Di Qing and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, were slightly depressed, what the official said was so mysterious that it was borrowed under the guise of a military exercise......
Zhao Zhen saw the disappointment on the faces of Cao Wei and the others, put down the Jianzhan in his hand and snorted: "Do you think my military exercise plan is so simple? There's a lot of knowledge in it! ”
