An autumn rain and a cold.

Since the dispatch of the troops, it has been sunny and rainy, and as soon as the autumn rain falls, it will be endless, and the original plan of five days of rest and recuperation has been forced to be extended to twelve days, until the rain and the sky are clear, and Xiang Xun proposed a plan to attack Jingzhao Mansion.

Although there was a delay in the warplanes, in the past 10 days or so, not only have the army completed its rest, but the administrative affairs of various counties have also been carried out smoothly, public order has gradually stabilized, and there is no need to worry about the road back.

Fengzhou Xingyuan.

When the military conference is in progress.

"Since the dispatch of our Northern Route Army, to this day, a total of more than 24,000 enemies have been annihilated and 32,632 prisoners have been captured, this figure does not include the righteous men and horses of the Party General and General Zhao, but according to the detailed report, the enemy army has collected less than 80,000 troops, and in addition to Li Jixun's troops fleeing north, there are still many deserters.

And our army, the loss is also nearly 15,000, excluding the garrison in various places, there are still 120,000 troops that can be used, a certain meaning, the rest and recuperation of the officers and men of the three armies have been completed, and the logistics supplement has also been put in place, and the troops can go out of Jingzhao Mansion. ”

"What's the situation in Jingzhao Mansion now?"

Xiang Xun held the baton, pointed to the sand table and said: "After the previous defeat, Song San first cowered in the city motionless, judging from the actions of the past few days, he knew the soldiers.

He ordered Li Chuyun to have 10,000 generals, stationed in Qianxian County, and ordered Cao Han to stick to Lantian from the meridian road, and set up two villages outside the city of Chang'an, thinking that it was a horn, and put out a stubborn position, and our army Li Danqi harassed the enemy to no avail, so he broke through Zhongnan County and garrisoned the city to raise troops. And Zhang Jianxiong's division of our army, which had already left the Meridian Valley, saw that our main force had not moved, and now it was stationed in the Meridian Valley, waiting for military orders. ”

Qin Yue nodded at Qianzhou and asked: "This Qianzhou is two days away from Chang'an City, and it only takes two days for my Fengxiang to send troops, and Li Chuyun is stationed here, and the backup can't keep up, what is the purpose?" ”

"I am worried that our army will pass through Liujing and Bi Erzhou, and as soon as he is stationed in this Qianzhou, there will be a system for defense, and at the same time, the Zhangwu Army, the Baoda Army, and the Protector Army will go south, and the importance of this Qianzhou will be even more prominent."

"In other words, this is the bridgehead in the Song army's defense system?"

Xiang Xun nodded: "So to speak, it is also in line with the expectations of our army, Song San doesn't want Chang'an City to be scrapped, and we don't want to blow up the city wall, so let Song San drive all his family funds over, he can't turn over in a battle." ”

Qin Yue touched his short mustache and smiled: "How many reinforcements has the Song army transferred?" ”

Shen Bingli, who specializes in spying on military aircraft, replied: "It is said that the puppet Song Emperor has a habit of big formations, and the previous defeat was because the Eight Formations were not useful, and not only the soldiers and horses of the feudal towns near the left were being mobilized, but the Bianjing Forbidden Army was transferred out of 50,000, and they were rushing day and night, and in about five days, there will be as many as 180,000 enemy troops in the Jingzhao Mansion. ”

"And how is this battle fought?"

Xiang Xun said: "Fight in a dignified manner, doesn't Song San want to play the formation, just let him play, one will be incompetent and the three armies are tired, even if there are 50,000 more, what is there to fear." ”

Quan Shixiong and the other generals laughed, Qin Yue wanted to continue asking, but a long report interrupted the military discussion.

"Report ...... Xiaoguan 800 miles urgent, the puppet Song Li Jixun Department held high the banner of our Great Qin all the way in the Fan District to burn, kill and plunder, plunder countless horses and treasures, kill more than 10,000 people, and now have fled into Yanzhou, tens of thousands of warriors of dozens of tribes such as the Party Xiang Department and the Tuyuhun Department in the Fan District cut their faces and swore to avenge their blood, and they may detain the east or go south. ”

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

The most worrying thing still happened, Xiang Xun pounded the frame of the sand table, but he was speechless.

Qin Yue sighed lightly, "No one expected that someone who looks like a Confucian general would also do such an evil thing, since the matter has already happened, how can it be good?" ”

"With a certain understanding of the Tibetan people, no matter what Qiang and what tribe, there is revenge, generally unkempt, barefoot forbidden meat, if you cut the face and swear, then it is really endless, so when it is prevented from going south, it is necessary to inform the pseudo-Song Dynasty, and do a good job in the defense of Ling, Yan, and Yan Prefectures, we and the pseudo-Song Dynasty, what we are fighting is a civil war, and at this time, foreign enemies must also be defended."

Zeng Wu was also present at this military meeting, and frowned when he heard this: "The person who kills and robs is a soldier of the pseudo-Song Dynasty, why did he come to invade my Great Qin, can you send an envoy to explain the mediation?" ”

Xiang Xun explained: "Jiezhou and Qinzhou don't need to worry too much, but Xiaoguan must be guarded against, if something is not bad, the Fan Department must be a three-way army, one out of Xiaoguan, two to attack Yanzhou, three to Yanzhou, the Tibetan people admit death, those who block their way of revenge are regarded as enemies, besides, for them, Qin and Song are all aliens." ”

"Are you saying that Li Yixing in Xiazhou will also raise troops?"

"Ironclad, all the party departments must be united if there are foreign enemies, so Li Yixing of Xiazhou must raise troops to respond, and in order to expand the influence of his Tuoba department, he will definitely raise the army of the clan, and he must win a few battles."

Zeng Wu's brows furrowed even tighter, "Li Yi Xingjiu has been in Xiazhou for a long time, with excellent armor and sufficient swords and horses, if he also follows to do revenge, the situation will be bad, but I heard that the eight major departments of the party have all moved to Xiazhou in the former Tang Dynasty, and Li Jixun's department is more evil in the Hetao area near the left of Anle Prefecture......"

Xiang Xun shook his head and sighed: "Fengqi doesn't know, Xiazhou has eight party items, and Anle Prefecture also has it.

And their habits are very different from our Han people, as long as they have a fertile pasture, they will continue to absorb Dingkou to join, so as to continue to grow, which is an important reason why the party can rise rapidly.

Secondly, Dangxiang, Tuyuhun, Tubo, Shenlangqiang and other tribes and tribes are really Qiang people, and they are all the same ancestors for hundreds of years, so even if Li Yixing is already lying in a coffin waiting for death, holding high the banner of revenge, and taking the opportunity to expand his strength, he still has to grit his teeth and do it. ”

"If that's the case, how about just co-opting it for my use?"

"Absolutely not, people who are blinded by hatred, you don't know what they will do to Li Min Shishu, so it is absolutely unusable, and you should guard against it."

Qin Yue nodded and said: "I agree with Xiang Shuai's opinion, you can't lure the wolf into the room, just do what Xiang Shuai said, it's just that Li Xing is guarding the two levels by himself, is it feasible?" ”

"Send a general to help."

Xiang Xun raised his head, but did not mention a specific candidate, obviously waiting for the generals to ask for orders.

Yang Ye coughed lightly and was about to speak, but Dang Jin took the first step to speak: "If it is eastward, the party is ashamed and willing to defend the northwest for the country." ”

"Add a certain one."

Qin Yue saw that it was Zhao Zan, and immediately laughed and said: "If the party general and General Zhao send troops together, it is the best, Li Xing is careful, cautious, has been the Marquis of Duyu for many years, has experience in internal affairs, but the experience of commanding the troops is slightly insufficient, in this way, the general of the party is the defense envoy along the border, General Zhao is the deputy, and Li Xing is still the Marquis of Duyu. ”

"Yes."

"Specific soldiers, horses, money, and food matters, and coordinate ...... to the commander"

Qin Yue's topic was interrupted by the minister's announcement outside the door, and Hongling hurried in with the support of the guards.

"The South Road camp won a great victory, captured Fancheng on October 12, and recovered Xiangyang the next day."

Qin Yue was overjoyed, snatched the battle report, read it at a glance, and said with a smile: "This ...... It was a real bonus. ”

Quan Shixiong rubbed his palms and smiled: "Xiangzhou, Junzhou, Fangzhou will be difficult to defend, it is not certain that the enemy defenders have abandoned the city and fled, as for Jinzhou, it has become a lonely city, west of the Han River, it will be the land of my Great Qin in the near future, and the ministers will congratulate Your Majesty." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

All the civil and military forces responded in unison, but Wei Xiangxun frowned, took the battle report and read it carefully, and paced to the large map on the wall, holding his hands in his hands, and shaking the baton aimlessly.

"Xiang Shuai, but what good idea did you think of again?"

"The reduction of the South Road Battalion is only more than two thousand, and the cavalry should still have four or five thousand, and there is enough mobility, so ...... Let them go a thousand miles away. ”

Xiang Xun drew a circle near the left side of Shangzhou with a baton, and said in a deep voice: "Xiangzhou has been in a certain place, it is the easiest to defend and difficult to attack, with 5,000 infantry and the cooperation of the naval division, how many enemy troops can only look at the city and sigh, and the cavalry is wasted there."

Jun, Fang, and Jin are mountainous and have few soldiers, there is no need to put more energy, it is better to pass it on, and it doesn't matter for the time being.

It can make Jia Yuanjing play the role of cavalry mobility and go north to disturb the enemy. ”

Qin Yue only remembered that the battle report only reported the battle situation, but there was no tactical report for the next step, and he hurriedly asked the messenger: "Does the prime minister have other arrangements?" ”

"The cavalry of General A has gone north, but what results can be achieved is unknown at the moment, and the cardinal minister only let General A watch it."

Qin Yue slapped the table angrily: "Let him watch it?" That tiger must have gone crazy. ”
