Chapter 1260: A Public Private Meeting
Chapter 1260 Open Private Meeting
In the end, in order to ease the atmosphere, Su You invited Jia Liang to climb the Chengguan Tower in Ningxia to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the rivers and mountains, play the piano and drink, and relax.
In everyone's thoughts, this is Su You's desire to show the military power of the Great Song Dynasty to Jialiang and increase the bargaining chips.
The two drank tea and talked on the highest tower of the watchtower, and the Song Xia military and civilian missions watched together under the city, and they were overwhelmed by their demeanor for a while.
Ningxia City is located two hundred miles north of Weizhou, at the northern end of Shimen Gorge, an important canyon to the east of Tiandu Mountain and west of Hengshan.
After Su You obtained this, he directly closed the north and south entrances of Shimenxia and built a long and narrow city, which was named Pingxia City at first, which was considered too stimulating by the imperial court and renamed Ningxia.
According to Su You's consistent view of the in-depth defense system, Ningxia City and the surrounding valleys and highlands are full of tunnels, bunkers, watchtowers, waterways, and more than 20 miles north of the city, all of which are within the scope of cascade defense in depth.
After more than ten years of repeated operation and consolidation by the successor, this Xia people have always been an important channel for entering the Great Song Dynasty, and now it is solid.
There are even vegetable patches, barns, and water sources in the city. Even if the Xia people gathered an army of 800,000, they would not want to capture it in a short period of time.
Jia Liang watched this terrifying defense project from the city tower: "The first Xiongguan in the world...... The hero of the Great Song Dynasty's national strength is indeed the crown of the United States. ”
Su You added tea to Jialiang, his expression was excited, and he was still a little trembling when he handed over the cup with both hands: "Brother Chao ......"
A smile appeared on Chao Gu's resolute face: "With Mingrun's expression just now, I almost sold the Tianzi secret spy." ”
Su You felt ashamed: "My mind is too agitated, if it weren't for Brother Chao's 'Meishan Old Things' to cover up, it would be exposed." ”
Chao Gu said with a smile: "This shows that although Mingrun has been ranked as the prince of the country, he still retains the heart of a child, which is gratifying." ”
Su You picked up his cup: "The situation is in a good situation, so I have to replace the wine with tea." Brother Chao, you are a well-deserved hero and hero of the Chinese family. Little brother toasts you. ”
Chao Gu took it with both hands, saluted Su You, and then took a sip: "Mingrun laughed, I heard about Mingrun's great work in Western Xia, and that is wonderful, especially the one with Wang Shao to occupy the city, which is simply a stroke of genius." ”
"Twenty-two years, like electricity, Mingrun has grown from a young boy to a pillar of the country, but your big brother Chao, ...... old"
Su You's voice was a little choked: "Your Majesty said, after this incident, the eldest brother will return to the court, whether to enter the literary capital or the martial arts class, it only depends on the wishes of the eldest brother Chao." ”
"If you want to enter the left class, it is a scholar of the Guanwen Temple, a scholar of the military department; If it is the right class, it is the national prince and the festival envoy. ”
Chaogu shook his head: "If it was really for this, Chaogu wouldn't be able to hold on to it now." ”
Su You poured another cup for Chao Gu: "Brother Chao, don't thank you, the court will reward you for your contributions, not only for you, but also to inspire the patriotism of the people of the world." For the sake of the family, the sister-in-law and the country building, the eldest brother should also accept it. ”
"I think about it, if Brother Chao is unwilling to enter the court, then it is best to guard the current place."
"I will invite the imperial court, Xu Tu cadres will guard Wuwei County, and Brother Chao will be the envoy of Wuwei Festival. First, to guard the main roads of the Western Regions, he can continue to serve the imperial court; Second, the circulation of merchants is developed, and it is very easy for the family to prosper. ”
Chao Gu smiled: "Mingrun, this is very sure?" ”
Su You said with a smile: "Decades of planning are only for today, if Su You is not ready, wouldn't he be worthy of the old man?" ”
After speaking, he began to dip his finger in tea and draw a map: "The war will start soon, after the wheat in Shanbei is ripe, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely move troops, I don't know exactly which way to start, but authorize a few armies to attack at the right time." ”
Chao Gu said: "Xia Ting's strategy has been decided, and they want to keep the Hetao wheat, so they will inevitably focus on organizing defense in Huanqing and Yanyan, and may also use iron harriers if necessary." Mingrun can't be careless. ”
Su You said: "Brother Chao, don't worry, the iron harrier has broken the law, but don't worry, the most troublesome thing is that after the light horse disperses, it will plunder my back road grain." ”
Chao Gu nodded: "This requires you to be ruthless, if the three levels are taken away, Xia Ting's next step can only be to clear the wilderness and retreat to Xingling." ”
"Mingrun, you have to prepare enough grain, if the Xia people can't keep the three passes, even if they don't have time to harvest the grain, they will be burned, so you must not fight the idea of giving food to the enemy."
"I will secretly hide a million military rations for you in Mingsha City, which will be used all the way, but the premise is that you have to go out of Qingtang and capture Lanzhou first."
Su You nodded: "That's all the way, Lanzhou, Brother Chao will complete the mission, you can lead the crowd back to the Great Song Dynasty, and leave the rest to us." ”
After speaking, he raised his glass again: "Brother Chao, hard work." Victory is in sight, and you should take care of yourself and be cautious. ”
Chao Gu picked up the cup and walked away with Su You: "That's not good, you have to arrange the timing smartly, so that I have the opportunity to break away from the Shalan area in the name of King Qin." ”
Su You was surprised: "Why is this?" ”
Chao Gu said: "The Xia people are still afraid of those who surrender to Cheng, and the Song and Xia wars are imminent, and arranging for me to guard against Qingtang is proof." ”
"At the last moment, how can the Tianzi secret spy not work? The Great Song Dynasty wanted to obtain the homeland of the Han and Tang dynasties without flaws, and it was the best way to control Bingchang or his son. ”
Su You advised: "We have set strategic goals for the Great Wall, Hetao and Monan. How far we can go depends on how the situation evolves. ”
After speaking, he looked at Chao Gu seriously: "Brother Chao, I don't want you to take any more risks." ”
Chao Gu shook his head: "In this way, then I have to go back, in case I don't win all, I can continue to deliver the summer ** machine." ”
"Not really." Su You insisted: "As long as the second strategic goal can be achieved, Lingzhou will be a lonely city, and sooner or later it will fall into our hands; At that time, there will be a Xingqing Mansion left on the west bank of the Yellow River. ”
"If the Liang clan follows the Xiongnu and escapes into Mobei, there is still a glimmer of life, otherwise they will die."
Chao Gu's eyes were deep: "Your reliance should be a firearm?" ”
Su You nodded.
Chao Gu smiled: "I know you have powerful firearms there, but I want to tell you, don't think that Western Xia has no generals. ”
"The ditches under the city of Lingzhou are vertical and horizontal, and they need to be attacked."
The platform was very high, and the people in the city could only see Su You and Chaogu's upper body, Su You took out an object from his leather bag and pushed it over from a few strokes: "This is a wheel gun, which can shoot six shots in an instant, but the range is short, and it is accurate within fifteen steps." ”
"The power is okay, there is no problem with breaking the steel armor of the Iron Harrier. The eldest brother insisted on being in the enemy's den, so keep this defense. ”
Chao Gu's eyes lit up: "So powerful? I thought that you relied on the Iron Harrier to break the car array and the earth-shattering thunder. ”
Su You said with a smile: "Brother Chao is looking down on people, this thing Wei'er has used outside the hoarding village, you should know." ”
Chao Gu finally changed color: "Heavenly Master Dao's palm thunder? ”
Su You nodded: "It can be understood in this way, the manual is in the bag, you study it slowly, and then find a place where no one is there to try the power." ”
Chao Gu smiled, and a very happy smile appeared on his weathered face: "This thing has been given to me, Mingrun is not afraid that I have really taken refuge in Xia Guo, is it to take your life this time?" ”
Su You also smiled: "Let you live a life of no one or ghost in the enemy camp for twenty-two years, and Brother Chao wants to take my life, and that is also the younger brother's crime." ”
"But now that the plan has been decided, even if Su You dies, the situation will continue to evolve, and Xia Guo will not be saved, on the contrary, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely retaliate with greater intensity."
"When the time comes, the imperial court will order Wang Shao, Zhang Qi, or Chong Ge to be handsome, but I am afraid that there will be three million Xia people, and it will be difficult to have any widows."
Chaogu put the wheel gun away: "Is there anything I need to do over there?" ”
Su You groaned for a while: "Since Brother Chao insists on staying in the enemy's den, then you have to think about it......"
