Chapter 0417: Liang Hanjin All-Out War (3)
As the first heir to the throne of the Southern Jin Dynasty, a hawkish minister, a spy leader, and a general stationed in the border, how many Northern Liang generals did the eighth prince Sima Wuci hide?
Looking at the list, the old emperor Sima Zhen was so shocked that he almost didn't laugh out of the pig cry, and shouted: "So much? ”
"Not only are there many people, but there are also systems, such as the Sima family system, the Meng family system, the Tang family's generals, and the outstanding talents in the recruit training camp. Usually, the eighth prince takes care of them meticulously, and all the people on this list have settled in the Southern Jin Dynasty, and their families are under the control of the military. Now although the eighth prince has passed away, they are still there, and they can be used with confidence, if they are not obedient, as long as His Majesty gives an order, their family will accompany them to the funeral. "Rock Songling Road.
Among the list of hundreds of people, the most famous is Zhang Hanshan, the former tiger ben Zhonglang general of the Ximen family, who participated in the Northern Expedition.
He was originally a general with Xiao Han, but he is different from Xiao Han, he has lived in the Ximen family since he was a child, so he is a deep-rooted family general, and a latecomer like Xiao Han can't urinate in a pot.
At the beginning, Xiao Han wanted to break away from the Ximen family, knowing that Zhang Hanshan could not fight with him, so before leaving, he transferred Zhang Hanshan and Xiao Fei back to the base camp of the Huainan Tiger Army. Later, the Ximen family rebelled, Xiao Fei and Zhang Hanshan followed, Xiao Fei died in battle, and Zhang Hanshan had nowhere to run after the defeat, so he ran to the Southern Jin Dynasty. But in the Liang Dynasty, it was rumored that Zhang Hanshan had died in the chaos.
In addition to Zhang Hanshan, the people of the Ximen family also have the generals Lu Han, Qi Kaishan, and the children of the Ximen Bofang, Ximen Chengfang and other families, a total of more than 100 people.
When Zhang Zhikui led the 90,000 Flying Tiger Army to surrender, Meng Zong had the opportunity to escape, but in the end Meng Zong chose to surrender, and Hong Mingshan and others fled to the Jin Dynasty and became the same name as Zhang Hanshan.
It is said that Hong Mingshan died in battle, but his body has never been found, in fact, he is not dead at all, he is alive and well, but he was just hidden by Sima Wucixue. Escaping with Hong Mingshan, there are also Meng Sen, Meng Gong, and Meng Liang, three descendants of the Meng family, who are of course also important figures in the military world. Growing up in the military, I am familiar with the army to the bone. They used to say that they were made to fight.
In addition to them, there are also Flying Tiger generals Pu Yunsheng, Lu Dengtian, and Zhang Baokui, who were also famous in the Jingzhou Flying Tiger Army.
In the end, the Tang family and those who were rebelled by Sima Wuci in the recruit training camp, among them there was a surname Tang, and what made people feel even more disdainful was that he was also the son of the third master of the Tang family, named Tang Yan.
Why did he betray the Liang Dynasty and betray the family, it's a long story, he did evil in the military camp, bullying men and women, and he was a disaster for a long time, and the Tang clan wanted to punish him.
He felt that there was nowhere to escape, so he came to Jiangnan. Sima Wuci despised his virtues, but seeing his extraordinary martial arts and rich combat experience, he left him a bite to eat.
He stayed in the Southern Jin Dynasty for twenty years.
In this list, there is also a group of talents who were rebelled against when Tang Yuan joined the army, and they are all elites.
What is the effect of gathering these seven or eight hundred people together and commanding an army of millions?
After being happy, Sima Zhen calmed down and said: "In my opinion, you can't use all your brains, you must always do a good job of checks and balances before you can use them, otherwise they will make military achievements in the future and be proud of their achievements, won't they threaten the imperial court?" ”
"What Your Majesty said is very true." Yan Songling said: "The minister and Xin Cifu have already discussed, so they will assign troops and horses to them according to their previous family factions. It can not only ensure their execution, but also contain each other. ”
"Wonderful." Sima said happily: "I just like this balanced state. ”16
These people suddenly gained military power, and they were like fish in water.
Zhang Hanshan and Hong Mingshan, which one is not experienced and famous, but as soon as they came to the Liang army's barracks, they frowned.
Xin said: "What kind of soldiers are this?" The legendary scrap soldiers, that's just that. ”
"No, it is impossible for such soldiers to be brought to war, otherwise it will be a waste of food and a war exploit for the enemy." Zhang Hanshan said: "This time, His Majesty the Emperor will rebuild, Zhang will do his best, these soldiers must be re-selected and trained before they can go to the battlefield, otherwise it is better not to fight." ”
Hong Mingshan thought for a while and said, "Hanshan, I think you should give less opinions." What are our identities, you have to know in your heart. Do you think that military power is really in our hands? We're just working part-time jobs. When the war is over, we will do whatever we want, and it will not be our turn to take power. Now how can there be time for you to train, since let's come, just this pile, you can use it, you can use it, you can't use it. If you use it well, it is the prosperity of the Jin Dynasty, and if you don't use it well, it is your sin and me. ”
Tang Yan smiled and said, "Don't use the war mind of the Liang Dynasty to consider the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty. The biggest difference between the Jin Dynasty and the Liang Dynasty is that there are rich people and many people. There is enough food for you to eat, enough equipment for you, and enough head for you to waste. It's not like before, the Liang Dynasty troops were so poor that they were fine, and they were all day long as a general. ”
The old emperor Sima Zhen divided the million people into four parts, Zhang Hanshan, Hong Mingshan, and Tang Yan each brought 200,000, and the remaining 400,000 all defended the capital.
In addition, there were 120,000 garrison troops and 60,000 defeated soldiers along the Yangtze River, all of whom were regular troops, and after integration, they guarded the Yangtze River together.
That will never move, otherwise the old emperor will not be able to sleep at night.
And Zhang, Hong, and Tang's troops placed a large number of royal children and children of powerful ministers, the purpose was very simple, that is, to keep an eye on this group of generals and not to defect.
His Majesty the Emperor asked the three of them to submit the battle plan as soon as possible, and the three of them racked their brains, carefully analyzed, carefully planned, and decisively decided, and finally decided on the plan as follows:
Zhang Hanshan led the headquarters of 200,000 to the west, following the old path of General Yue Ting, to support Yue Ting;
Hong Mingshan led his troops to feint against the Tiger Ben Army, Tang Yan bypassed the Tiger Ben Army's defense line along the river, and detoured back to the back of the Tiger Ben Army, forming a situation of encirclement between the two armies, even if he couldn't eat the Tiger Ben Army, he had to be trapped in Huainan.
The plan is dozens of pages thick, and all kinds of situations that can be thought of are written one by one, and the countermeasures are well considered, and there is no hole, which makes the old emperor very excited, and praises loudly: "This is the real general!" Hahahahaha! ”
Yan Songling said: "Your Majesty, don't be too happy. I have heard that Zhang Hanshan has a lot of criticism about the army, and said that it is difficult for such a force to win a battle. ”
"Huh?" Sima Zhen glared at him: "What's going on with him Zhang Hanshan?" Can it be done? If it doesn't work, quickly withdraw it and replace it! ”
"At this time, he has already led his troops through Jingzhou to support Yue Ting." Rock Songling Road.
"I don't care where he goes, if he doesn't work, he will withdraw, don't mess with my army's heart!" Sima Zhen slapped the table and said.
