Chapter 276: The Great Song Dynasty's Pre-War Preparations (I)
Yang Caiwei was undoubtedly excited, for her, the official family was telling her through the queen's mouth that he was fulfilling his original promise, and the party members finally obtained the title of Dingyan Army that they had since the Tang Dynasty!
In the hearts of every party member, their help to the Li Tang Dynasty made them obtain the glorious and sacred title of the Dingyan Army, although the Li Tang Dynasty has disappeared in the dust of history, but the party members still remain, but Zhao Song is not Li Tang.
His own people finally won the recognition of the Great Song Dynasty, which made the stone in Yang Caiwei's heart fall to the ground, as long as the party members have the title, and can rely on Liao and Song, there will be room for stable development, as for what Li Deming wants to do next, it is not something she can manage.
Yang Caiwei even felt that she should serve Zhao Zhen well at night, so as to repay him for fulfilling his promise, but unfortunately she didn't know that all this was Zhao Zhen's trap, and Zhao Zhen was in the Privy Council discussing a self-defense counterattack plan against the party members with a group of generals.
Didn't the party members come to attack Yanzhou in the Great Song Dynasty? Then Da Song must make a counterattack, and he must not let the party members easily humiliate Da Song's face!
The two names of King Xiping and Dingyan Army are enough to make the party complacent, but in the eyes of the Song people, these are more or less just false names, Zhao Zhen doesn't care, and the civil and military officials of the Great Song Dynasty don't care, at this time, there are not only military generals in the Privy Council, but also Wenchen, almost all the ministers of the two mansions came, and even Li Di, who was the prince and the prince, was invited to the Privy Council.
At this time, although the Privy Council is still called the Privy Council, it has undergone earth-shaking changes from before, the building and furnishings completely copy the layout of the Military Academy, and even the military war room is exactly the same, and Zhao Zhen can even touch the small flag used for deduction under the sand table according to his habits......
Unexpectedly, the learning ability of military generals is much stronger than that of civilian officials, Zhao Zhen appreciates it very much, especially the military etiquette implemented by Cao Wei makes military generals different from the etiquette of literati, and the civilian officials are very red-eyed.
Cao Wei put forward the dynamics of the party and the siege of Yanzhou City on the sand table, and all kinds of information were continuously gathered in the Privy Council, not only the information collected before, but even the information of the Zhenzong Dynasty, which was most appropriate to be classified and sorted by the literati.
Wang Zeng and others are considering political factors and tricks, Zhao Zhen's Xiping King and Dingyan Army can be used as the biggest smoke bomb, but the ministers feel that it is inappropriate, this side has rewarded people, and that side will send troops to attack, are there some unknown teachers?
Zhao Zhen almost ran away, this was obviously a self-defense counterattack after the Great Song Dynasty was invaded! It's obviously a just battle with no way! can actually be said by them to be a nameless teacher, and this is no one!
"Zhongqing is really relieved to think like this, it seems that you are all righteous men and gentlemen, but!"
Zhao Zhen said in an aggravated tone: "The party people knocked on the side, surrounded my Great Song Yanzhou City, razed countless forts, and my Great Song border defenders were even more killed and wounded, and what is even more indignant is that the party people actually besieged the city and threatened our Great Song Dynasty to give the Xiping King and the Dingyan army a reward, what kind of behavior do you say?" ”
Zhao Zhen's words made the ministers speechless, and the generals echoed: "Bandit behavior!" ”
Zhao Zhen waved his hand suddenly: "That's right, this is a bandit!" Put a knife on your neck and tell you that you have mercy on me, my house can't even open the pot, is this begging or robbery? ”
Lu Zongdao nodded and said, "This is robbery!" ”
"That's right! Now that's what the party members are doing, are you still worried that the Great Song Dynasty will be unknown? The party members have already laughed! I want you to prepare to beg for the thief's letter now, and on the surface, you must also entertain the party mission, so that they can feel as warm and comfortable as the spring breeze, and make them feel that our Great Song Dynasty will never counterattack the party! Do everything you can to confuse the enemy politically! ”
Zhao Zhen's words made Ding Wei's eyes light up and he quickly went out and said: "The minister thinks that the border field can be reopened, so that not only can the party confuse the party members, but even prepare and transport the strategic needs in advance to the border!" ”
Lu Zongdao said: "What Ding Xianggong said is very true, the old minister thinks that he can also send envoys to the party to confer the title of King Xiping and the Dingyan Army, etc., and he will go on the road tomorrow to make a full gesture, but the speed can go slowly, as long as the enemy is confused!" ”
Zhao Zhen didn't expect that he actually released the wolf in Wenchen's heart, all kinds of gentlemen's tricks to deceive him are endless, Zhao Zhen and Cao Wei looked at each other and shivered slightly, it seems that Wenchen is naturally an expert in conspiracy!
As long as you have a foothold in the general righteousness, it doesn't matter what means are used, especially with the support of the official family, even Li Di sneered and said that he would send Buddhist monks to Yanzhou to preach Buddhism......
Wen Chen naturally thought of various strategies to attack the east or confuse the enemy, while the military generals were thinking about how to use their troops.
Zhao Zhen insisted on using the four guards of the Son of Heaven who had basically completed the transformation, and in his eyes, he praised the Japanese army, the Divine Guard, the Dragon Guard, and the Tianwu Army already had basic combat literacy, and the difference was the actual combat of real swords and guns.
This self-defense counterattack against the party members was their whetstone, but Zhao Zhen did not trust them too much, compared with the Central Forbidden Army of the Fourth Army, the Northwest Forbidden Army had more advantages.
The army of the Great Song Dynasty can be divided into three parts: the forbidden army, the Xiang army and the township soldiers, of which the Xiang army and the township soldiers are relatively weak in combat effectiveness, and Zhao Zhen has combined the Xiang army in Jinghu and other Lingnan places to open up wasteland and tuntian.
As the main force in the army, the forbidden army is actually divided into three parts, the Hebei Forbidden Army, the Northwest Forbidden Army and the Central Forbidden Army.
The Northwest Forbidden Army maintained strong combat effectiveness because of the fierce folk style stationed in Shaanxi and the long-term war against the party members, but their discipline was lax and it was very difficult to manage.
This Northwest Army is also the cradle of the famous generals and strong armies of the Great Song Dynasty, the famous golden knife old Linggong Yang Ye Yang Invincible is from the Northwest Army, and the inner screen China, the outside of the Zhijia Army is also a member of the Northwest Forbidden Army.
Therefore, Zhao Zhen hopes that the Fourth Army of the Four Guards of the Son of Heaven and the Northwest Forbidden Army can find their own shortcomings and the advantages of the other party through this cooperation.
But this opportunity is excellent, and the three ways to deepen friendship are to carry a gun together, go through the window together, and share the spoils together......
Zhao Zhen believes that the Upper Fourth Army led by Di Qing and Yang Huaiyu can quickly integrate with the Northwest Forbidden Army, after all, these two originally incompatible people can come together, not to mention the forbidden army that eats food and does not have any major conflicts?
A group of civil ministers and military generals planned for a long time, and finally decided that the location of the attack would be set in Yanzhou, which Li Di had proposed before, and Hongzhou, which was the closest to the Great Song Dynasty.
The reason why there was no one army was sent was because the two states were each other's horns, and if they were retaliated by the party, they could help each other, and they were very close to the Dingbian army and the security army of the Great Song Dynasty, and they could rush to help at any time.
In this way, the ministers excitedly went back to Zhongshu Province to discuss the details, and the generals carefully deduced the direction and development of the war against the sand table, and finally Cao Wei and others came to the conclusion that if the Great Song Dynasty could successfully take Yanzhou and Hongzhou, or even the Great Wall not far away!
Once the Great Wall was recovered, the political significance for the Great Song Dynasty was far greater than the strategic significance, which meant that the Great Song Dynasty had once again conquered the homeland of China since the founding of the country, which was a great deterrent to both the Party and the Liao people.
