Chapter 641: The Gathering
Liu Xing originally only planned to invite his current boss Chen Changping to a meal, which could be regarded as picking up the wind for Chen Changping. After all, he is a native of Dizhou, an authentic snake. As a result, they met the old boss Li De and his wife, and this was not over, after Li De and Chen Changping saw the sand table at his home, they were very interested, and the discussion of the current situation was endless. Later, Li De simply sent his own soldiers to call Li Hao, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, and Shi Luguan, the governor of Dizhou. Suddenly, more than half of the high-level people in Dizhou went to Liu Xing's house. Instead, the master was busy half to death.
There's no way, here, just take one out, the status is much higher than Liu Xinglai, Liu Ru is even more trembling, she thinks she is the biggest official when she sees a lieutenant or a quick catch, but a group of people who come today are much higher than the rumored county officials she heard.
"Lu Changshi, tell us about Yang Wei!" Li Dedao. "You have the most dealings with him, and you must know him the most. This person"
"Yang Wei is a shrewd person and a smart person." Lu Guan said with a smile: "He will never hesitate to implement Li Xiang's policy, I think he was afraid of General Shi and them at the beginning." And he can also see that we are thriving, and under the general trend, he will naturally cooperate better. ”
"How is his relationship with General Qin?" Chen Changping asked suddenly.
Lu Guan thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, it's normal, basically don't contact General Qin in private, even if General Qin invites a banquet, if he doesn't invite us, he will definitely find an excuse to refuse." ”
"That's good!" Chen Changping smiled: "Indeed, as you said, he is a smart person. By the way, Li Hao, you are General Qin's lieutenant general, what do you think of this person? ”
"A very standard military man. On top of his military attainments, it is admirable, and I still learned a lot from him. He doesn't hide his secrets either, and he is very generous. Li Hao said: "It's just that the brand on his body is too obvious, even if he wants to, he can't wash it off." In my contact with him, I can still feel his pain. ”
"Is it possible, then, for this man to come to us entirely? Can you fight for it? Li De was a little curious: "I also know that he is a good man, but if he is still entangled with Xue Ping and them like this, I am afraid that he will not have a good life in the future." ”
"Don't move with such thoughts." Li Hao said categorically: "He has his obsessions, his relationship with the emperor has always been very good, and the emperor is also very trusting, so he will never completely fall to us." At the moment we have a common interest, which is to dominate the world, but ......"
Li Hao stood up, looked at everyone, and said slowly: "If it really comes to the day we are looking forward to, Qin Zhao will definitely not sit idly by, so before that, we must solve him, whether it is to remove his military power, or some other way." ”
And all the people were silent. The other methods in Li Hao's mouth are self-evident.
"Instead of sitting on Qin Zhao's useless work, I think it's better to work Jin Shiyuan and Cheng Xu." Li Hao said: "If you can successfully pull these two people over, then Qin Zhao will also become a bare-bones general, except for his own personal soldiers, I am afraid that he will no longer be able to command other armies." ”
"Can these two people be pulled over?" Chen Changping's eyes lit up.
"Jin Shiyuan may be a little troublesome, Cheng Xu I don't think it's a big problem, he is the first batch of Shence Army generals to come to fight in our place, and he knows us much more deeply than others." Li Hao said.
"What's going on, did you report the internal guard?" Li De asked.
Li Hao laughed, but was silent, but everyone knew it in their hearts.
Zuo Xiaowei ranked first among the current twelve guards of the Tang Dynasty, not because he had the strongest combat effectiveness, but because Qin Zhao was already a general before he came to Wuyi, and his status was originally there. If you really want to talk about it, Zuo Xiaowei's military source is the most complicated. Among them, there were the Shence Army in the past, the Zhaowu Army, and later in Dizhou, and the 5,000 Dizhou Army trained by Li Hao himself also joined it, and the source was extremely complicated.
Chen Changping waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about this, change the topic, Lu Changshi, this time I have a total of 10,000 cavalry with Li De, and we will be the first to fight when the time comes, so you can't hold back the logistics supply you give us." ”
Lu Guan smiled proudly: "Brother Changping, our Dizhou, but one of the best developed areas of Yixing Society, although the economy is not as good as Cangzhou, Texas, but it is not much worse, I know the particularity of your task, so I have been preparing for a long time, all over the Yixing Society has already received the task, all kinds of dry food are being prepared, and I will definitely not miss your business." ”
"That's good."
"This battle, there is not much to worry about, although there are many soldiers in Pinglu, but it is just one person, the weapons and armor are far inferior to ours, morale is even lower, there are often deserters, it is difficult to support Hou Xiyi to maintain such a large army, we have an economic blockade on him, and Zhu Wen is now in order to supply his headquarters army through the south, he is even more fond of ignoring him, Pinglu's economy has reached the verge of collapse. If it weren't for his army blocking the border, I'm afraid that the people on the other side of Pinglu would flee to our side in droves. In the entire territory of Pinglu, there are groups of bandits, although Hou Xiyi has repeatedly sent troops to suppress them, but these bandits are inextricably linked with the army. I reckon that as soon as the battle begins, they will be defeated. Li Hao said with a smile.
"I heard that Chang'an sent Zhu Youzhen to Pinglu to oversee the army, so you can't take it lightly, the ants bite the elephant to death." Lu Guan didn't dare to relax, "Our Dizhou is the front line, if you lose the battle, Dizhou will bear the brunt, if they let them in, our hard work for several years will be ruined." Those people are locusts. ”
"Lu Changshi, rest assured!" In the room, the others were all military generals, but one by one they were laughing, laughing at Lu Guan's worries.
In the midst of laughter, the door was pushed open, and Liu Xing came in with a head exposed, "Generals, the rice is cooked." ”
"Eat, drink, don't get drunk today!" Chen Changping stood up and said loudly. "Liu Xing, is there enough wine?"
"The last general has just sent someone to buy a few more jars of good wine." Liu Xingdao.
Liu Xing gathered here, and at this time, in the mansion of General Zuo Xiaowei, Qin Zhao, Jin Shiyuan, and Cheng Xu were also staying together, and it was they who were talking about it.
"Fight Lu, how can you use Chen Changping and Li De to come over, our Zuo Xiaowei can solve each other." Jin Shiyuan was a little dissatisfied, shaking his head, his head full of blonde hair flowing, which was eye-catching.
"In this battle, Li Xiang has already set a strategy, and the purpose of transferring these two elite cavalry over is to penetrate Pinglu with lightning speed, cause shock and terror in the entire Pinglu, and then force Pinglu to surrender to us, so as not to inflict devastating damage on the already broken Pinglu. If there is really a competition with Hou Xiyi for one city and one place, when the time comes, what will be left of Pinglu? Qin Zhao shook his head and said, "Li Xiang's strategy is correct. I have discussed this issue with Han Shangshu and Xue Shangshu many times, and Pinglu is actually on the verge of collapse now, and they only need to push hard again, and they will collapse. Therefore, the two Shangshu also agreed with Li Xiang's strategic decision. ”
"In other words, we need to tear the hole for these two cavalry!" Jin Shiyuan snorted: "The hardest battle is fought by us, but in the end, the biggest fruit is picked by them." General, we also have cavalry! ”
"Our cavalry, can they compare with these two cavalry? What's more, there are not many cavalry on our left. Qin Zhao shook his head and said: "Shiyuan, don't complain, everyone is the Tang Army, and Li Xiang is also an understanding person, who will not swallow our military exploits." The most important thing to draw Lu is the first battle, which is something that everyone knows well. ”
"Speaking of which, we are still raised by little mothers." Kim Se Won said.
Qin Zhao sank his face: "Shiyuan, in the past few years, the imperial court has been short of your military salary, or is it lacking your equipment?" Calm down and do things, don't complain at every turn. ”
Qin Zhao lost his temper, and Jin Shiyuan also wilted.
Cheng Xu sighed, the current situation has come to this point, and everyone knows that Liu Chenglin's right Xiaowei will arrive here soon, and he will fight Lu, but I am afraid that it will be the last battle of the left Xiaowei. Next, to the south, it must be Liu Chenglin's right guard.
Maybe when the time comes, Li Ze will transfer Zuo Xiaowei to that corner!
Just like the current Zuo Wuwei under the command of Li Cunzhong, he was stationed in the distant Lingzhou, and he definitely did not participate in the battle of the Southern Expedition. And Zuo Xiaowei will definitely end up like this at that time.
Did Li Ze treat them badly?
It doesn't look like so.
But they didn't participate in the big war that would really make a great contribution to the domination of the world, and in the end, when the world was in harmony, when it came to merit, they naturally had no competition with other armies.
The army has no military exploits, and it is useless to say anything.
Li Ze's gentle knife has always been to the point.
Want to rebel?
Cheng Xu didn't dare to think about this. Not to mention that there are soldiers and horses led by Li Haotong in Zuo Xiaowei, they are his subordinates, how many members of the Yixing Society are there? In recent years, how many people under Jin Shiyuan's command have joined Yixing Society? Among the general's personal soldiers, as far as he knew, there were also members of the Yixing Society.
As the earliest general of the Shence Army who came to Wuwei, Cheng Xu knew the ability of Yixing Society very clearly. Strong brainwashing ability, strong mobilization ability, terrifying action ability, and these people are really not afraid of death, in the most bitter year of the battle with Lu Longjun, Cheng Xu has seen how the death squad composed of those Yixing members broke through the enemy's position with their lives and blood in the battle. For these people, it seems that it is a supreme honor to fulfill the promise they made when they joined the company.
Whenever he thought of those members of the Yixing Society chanting slogans and rushing forward without hesitation, Cheng Xu would have goosebumps on his body.
