Since he meant that the problem was to be solved, Zhao Yu decided to start with these cronies and senior generals and rectify them after discovering that there were also disagreements among the army generals. So he left all the generals in the martial arts in the name of 'studying military aircraft', and now it was the time of the New Year's holiday, and there was no one else in the martial arts except the soldiers on duty, so he ordered the guard battalion to take over the guard of the headquarters campus, and these generals were organized into a detachment, with him as the head of the team, Han Zhen as the marquis of Yu, and Zhao Mengjin, Jiang Cheng and Liu Zhu as the captains.

This should be the highest-level detachment of the Great Song Dynasty, concentrating almost all the high-ranking generals in the Song army. The reason why Zhao Hao gathered everyone together in this way is because he believes that in order to strengthen the cohesion of a team, in addition to the crisis, there is only the robe and love cultivated by eating, sleeping and training together. And now everyone's estrangement and disputes are precisely because of the reduction of communication with each other, and at the same time, because of the conflict of interests, which leads to mutual distrust.

For these senior generals, who have already reached the age of age, Zhao Yu will certainly not conduct tactical training with great physical strength like training recruits, but strictly follow the work and rest system of grassroots units in the army. In the morning, you have to go out to exercise, tidy up housekeeping, do basic physical fitness and queue training, and take turns standing guard at night. And the accommodation did not choose a single room, but chose a large room, more than 20 people lived in the Chase shop, even Zhao Yu is no exception, it can be said that eating, drinking and Lazar are inseparable.

However, more time was spent with the general public to discuss the direction of the army's development, how to improve its combat effectiveness, and to discuss the future strategic direction and the strategic goals to be achieved in the short term. In addition, the ancient and modern battle examples were deduced, the gains and losses in the battle to recover Jiangnan were summarized, and an in-depth study was made on how the services and arms worked together. At the same time, he also carried out subtle loyalty education, once again emphasizing that the role of the army is to protect the territory and the people and resist foreign aggression, and to be loyal to the country, the nation and the king.

In fact, Zhao Yu planned to do these tasks as early as the beginning of the recovery of Jiangnan, but due to repeated changes and the Empress Dowager taking over the imperial court, these works were put on hold. As a result, the various departments are basically in their own development, without a clear direction for training and operations, and still less have a long-term plan, which is very harmful to the development of the army, but this lesson has been made up in this way.

A group of people set up camp in the martial arts, and they seemed to have returned to the old days, where everyone studied and studied in addition to training. Zhao Yu is good at strategic planning, and has a better understanding and familiarity with the internal and external situations, so he is the main speaker on the strategic layout of the enemy and the international situation; Jiang Cheng was familiar with military geography and the people of Jiangnan, so he explained how to use geography to achieve defense and attack against the enemy; Zhao Mengjin had a lot of experience in the coordinated use of water, infantry, artillery, and cavalry, and the newly formed car battalion was also conducting trial training under his leadership, so he explained the joint combat tactics of various arms.

Han Zhen is very good at the planning and logistics management of the campaign, so naturally he will give a lecture on this part; The water war is naturally none other than Liu Zhu, and in the future, whether it is offensive operations or defensive operations, the cooperation of the naval army will be required, so Zhao Yu asked him to explain the coordinated operation of the two armies of the water step, and focused on the landing operation and relying on the naval army to carry out heavy supplies, and this is also related to the direction and route of the Song army's offensive in the future.

The other chiefs were also good at it, especially in terms of tactics, and they were all veterans of all defensive and offensive operations. Therefore, I personally summarized the offensive operations of my own troops, and also analyzed the use of terrain, the coordination of arms and tactics in several key battles, so as to draw experience and lessons from them.

Everyone was very familiar with each other, and they all fought side by side, it can be said that they were friends of life and death, and they got along day and night for a few days, so that everyone quickly forgot the unhappiness of the past, and more recalled the days when they shared joys and sorrows, and depended on each other in life and death. After Zhao Hao's intentional guidance and guidance, they untied the knots between them, explained the root of the contradictions between each other, and everyone made criticism and self-criticism, and resolved each other's grievances in a timely manner, so that they no longer lingered on their minds, and laid the foundation for future cooperation and collaboration.

"Your Majesty, in the past two days, someone has been probing their brains around the perimeter, have they been arrested for trial?" After the morning class was over, Chen Dun stepped forward and whispered to the little emperor.

"Oh, do you know where it came from?" Zhao Yu asked with a frown. Although the old Miyagi has been burned down, the current imperial guards are stationed here, and it has long been turned into a military forbidden area, which is also a well-known thing for the people in the city.

"Looking at the characters, they should be from me, and they don't seem to come from the same way, so my subordinates feel strange." Chen Dun knew the weight on his shoulders, if he was attacked by someone here and caused damage, his own death would be small, but it would cause immeasurable losses to the Song army, so he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

"It can't be the spies of the Beijing tabloids, right?" Zhao Yu thought for a while. He is now a little helpless with the paparazzi of the tabloids in Beijing, and their professionalism is comparable to that of the spies of the bureau. And these people are further subdivided into internal agents who specialize in inquiring about the love and hatred of the emperor and the harem according to different emphases; inquire whether there is collusion between officialdom, the appointment and dismissal of the imperial court, and whether there are any provincial agents secretly hiding Jiaojiao; Then there are the yamen, especially the prison prisons, who go to the bureaucracy to inquire about the progress of the criminal case, and so on.

Zhao Yu knew that he had just officially become pro-government, married the queen, and the turmoil in the DPRK and China continued, which was the focus of the news, not only the officials of the DPRK and China were guessing their next move, but the people were also concerned about their every move, of course, what interested them was the matter of the harem. And where there is demand, there is a market, and it is not surprising that various tabloids also focus on him, and those people are not on the same road, which naturally makes him suspicious of these people.

"Your Majesty, although my subordinates also have some suspicions, it is inevitable that there will be a mixture of fish and dragons, so it is better to be careful!" Chen Dunyan said.

"Hmm!" Zhao Yu nodded, turned his face to Ni Liang and said, "You ordered the guards to strengthen their vigilance, increase the density of sentry posts and patrols, intercept those who enter the forbidden area without authorization, and send people to conduct counter-reconnaissance to find out where these people are coming from. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ni Liang saluted, turned around and went out and immediately ordered.

In the evening, the information came back, and these peripheral spies not only had tabloid spies, but also family members sent by officials from the DPRK and China, and the reason was nothing more than to know that the emperor and these generals had stayed in the martial arts for many days without returning. After asking about their details, Zhao Hao did not embarrass them, but sent them to Lin'an Mansion in the name of trespassing into the military restricted area, and then let them be released on bail and released home.

Zhao Yu didn't think it was strange for this kind of thing, in the capital, the wealthy families, the important ministers of the court sent their relatives to monitor political enemies, and it was nothing new to pay attention to the emperor's words and deeds, and he had done it himself. And this time I went out of the palace to hold a shooting salute in the name of feasting with the generals, and I had no other intention. But after discovering the problem, he changed his mind, and he just asked people to go back to the palace to get some change of clothes, but he didn't say much.

In addition to the endless feasts and drinks, there are various ceremonies that need to be attended, such as the spring equinox to 'beat the spring cow', the fifth day of the first month to worship the Buddha, and the thirteenth to watch the lights on the street to prepare for the Shangyuan Festival, which requires him to attend and determine the list of attendants. But at this moment, he plunged into the barracks, and all the military generals who congratulated him disappeared together, and he did not show up for more than ten days, which inevitably caused people to reverie and ambiguity.

Zhao Yu analyzed that it is now in a sensitive period, including a group of Wenchen led by Lu Xiufu and Wen Tianxiang, who have already sensed their dissatisfaction with them, and have expressed the idea of 'changing horses' on many occasions. And just after he took over the government, he disappeared from everyone's sight with a group of cronies and military ministers, how could they not feel uneasy, so as to suspect that the little emperor was conspiring with the generals to prepare for full control of the imperial court and the establishment of a regime dominated by military ministers, so as to change the situation of the Great Song Dynasty ruling the country with scholars and doctors for three hundred years.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lu is here to meet you!" The next day, when Zhao Yu was discussing the current military threats with the generals, Chen Dun came in and said.

"Please!" Zhao Yu didn't feel much surprise at Lu Xiufu's coming, he had already expected that someone would come to investigate the rumors, but he didn't expect Lu Xiufu to come in person.

"Your Majesty!" Along the way, Lu Xiufu found that not only was the road leading to martial arts full of sentry posts, but also the patrols were constantly coming and going. After entering the headquarters, they were all taken over by the emperor's guard battalion, and the corner towers on the wall were guarded by guards with loaded guns, and the fortifications that resisted horses and had sandbags were erected outside the gate, not only did not have the slightest festive atmosphere, but were filled with a solemn atmosphere, which made people feel depressed, until he saw the little emperor in the lecture hall and breathed a sigh of relief, and stepped forward to salute.

"Excuse me!" Zhao Yu stood up to greet him and raised his hand.

"The last general will wait to see the left phase!" Then Zhao Mengjin also led the generals to stand up and salute in unison.

"The generals are polite!" Lu Xiufu also hurriedly turned around and returned the salute.

"Lu Xiang came just in time, give me a seat!" After the two sides finished the ceremony, Zhao Yu sat down again, and someone arranged a seat for Lu Xiufu under him.

"Your Majesty, is this preparing for war against Meng Yuan?" Lu Xiufu sat down after thanking him again, and looked at the situation map of Song and Mongolia hanging on the wall, and the long table where everyone was sitting was a sand table from the middle to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

"Lu Xiang also knows that Meng Yuan is actively preparing for war under the pretext of peace talks, and we can't help but be prepared. This is a rare opportunity, all the generals will gather in Beijing, I will discuss the current situation with you, and discuss countermeasures! Zhao Yu replied with a smile, and did not intend to hide it from him.

"Oh, I see, can you do your best?" Lu Xiufu had heard the little emperor say it before, but he didn't discuss it in detail, and the current furnishings show that what he said is true, so it is not difficult to understand that he is heavily guarded. Not only did the elites of the Great Song Dynasty army gather here, but the matters discussed also involved military secrets, so naturally they could not be discovered by outsiders, and of course he was relieved to learn the truth.

"I discussed with the generals for several days, and after analyzing various situations, they all thought that another invasion by Meng Yuan was inevitable, but it was difficult to judge where the enemy army would cross the river!" Zhao Yu said, "I know that Prime Minister Lu is good at military affairs and has served in Huaidong for many years, so I also ask Prime Minister Lu for more advice." ”

"The minister thinks that if Meng Yuan invades south again from Jiangzhou or Runzhou, it is most likely that he will use troops." Lu Xiufu examined the sand table on the long table for a moment, and pointed with his finger.

"Why?" Zhao Yu didn't say anything, but asked the reason directly.

"Your Majesty, Runzhou and Yangzhou face each other across the river, and there is a canal between them, which is convenient for the use of troops; Jiangzhou is located at the bottom of the Huainan West Road, the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region protrudes to the south, they can detour to the east after crossing the river here, and our heavy troops are deployed in the areas along the river, which can quickly break into the hinterland of Jiangdong and cut off the retreat of our army to the south. If we divide our forces to resist the enemy, then the air defense of the river is weak, and they can take the opportunity to cross the river in a big way, and as long as one city upstream falls, they can break through and approach Lin'an. Lu Hideo explained.

"It's really a hero's vision!" After listening to Lu Xiufu's explanation, Jiang Cheng sighed, "Your Majesty also thinks that Huainan is no longer and Jiangnan is unstable." ”

"Jiang Zhishuai has an overreputation, and it is common sense for soldiers to guard the river and guard Huai, not just what I see!" Zhao Yu waved his hand and said, "It's the discussion of the prime minister of Lu that reminds us that if Meng Yuan attacks from two directions, one positive and one strange, one real and one false, it is difficult for us to determine the direction of the enemy's main attack, and we dare not divide our troops to resist the enemy, which is indeed a troublesome thing." ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much, most of the enemy's naval army has been annihilated, it is difficult to compete with us on the river, how dare you cross the river easily!" Liu Zhu stood up and spoke.

"It is true that the enemy's naval army is weak, but what I am worried about is that it will not fight on the river before us, but intends to send a large army across the river, so that we will not be able to mobilize the naval army to annihilate the enemy on the river." Zhao Hao touched his chin and said.

"Your Majesty is right, although the river is wide, it is still not as wide as the strait, and the warning time left for them is too short. If they only want to cross the river, they can accumulate heavy troops on the opposite bank in advance, and then choose to suddenly cross the river at night or when the weather is bad, as long as they can go ashore, then the enemy cavalry can quickly break away, and we can't catch up if we want to. Zhao Mengjin nodded, agreeing with the little emperor's statement.

"If we strike first and take the lead in launching the battle to recover Huainan, then the depth of defense will be extended, and we will not be afraid of any tricks of the enemy!" Han Zhen said at this time.

"It's a good idea to attack instead of defending, it's just ......" Zhao Hao nodded when he heard this, but he still had some doubts......
