…

"This plan is good for everything, but there is a very fatal loophole!"

When Tong Guan heard this, his eyes narrowed, and then he smiled and said, "Oh? I don't know where the vulnerability is? ”

Cai still didn't seem to see Tong Guan's expression, but pointed to the map and said, "Xuan Xiang, please take a look." ”

As he spoke, Cai still came to the map, and then pointed to the southwestern area of Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province, and said, "Xuanxiang's plan is to wait until the various army movements arrive in Runzhou before starting to implement the marching plan. ”

Cai still moved his finger upwards slightly, pointing to Nanjing in later generations, and then said, "If I were Fang La, I would definitely seize this place as soon as possible, choke the road for the official army to go south, and then send a large army to defend the Yangtze River according to the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and continue to seize the southeast region." ”

After a pause, Cai still said leisurely, "No more, as long as I can hold for three months, with my current development speed, I can sweep the southeast, and then I can mobilize all my troops to fight a decisive battle with the official army, and if I win, I will wave my army across the river and eliminate the Great Song Dynasty, and if I am defeated, I will continue to stick to the Yangtze River, and the Great Song Dynasty will draw the river and rule, and then slowly try to do it." ”

After hearing this, Tong Guan's face no longer had the casual look he had just had, but became very solemn, and he thought to himself, "If this is the case, then I don't know how long this battle will drag on, and the recovery of Yanyun can only become far away, or even never realized." ”

But Cai was still not finished, he said again, "If I am a little bolder, I will send a large army to drive across the river, and then blossom everywhere, and lead the war from Jiangnan to Jiangbei, by that time, Jiangbei will definitely be full of smoke, and maybe the people of Jiangbei will also rebel like the people of Jiangnan, in that case, the official army must first pacify the Jiangbei area where the national capital is located, and then cross the river to pacify the Jiangnan region, otherwise, I will control the army in the Jiangbei region to directly attack Tokyo Bianliang City." ”

Speaking of this, Cai still looked at Tong Guan, who was already in a cold sweat, and then looked at the others with the same heavy faces, and continued to say without shock, "If I succeed in this step, I will send a large army to hold the Yangtze River, then half of the Great Song Dynasty will be mine, with the passage of time, without the economic support of the southeast, the Great Song Dynasty will inevitably become weaker and weaker, and I will become stronger and stronger, maybe three years, maybe five years, maybe ten years, and when the problems of the Great Song Dynasty break out, I will personally lead the army to kill the Yangtze River, It is very likely that the Great Song Dynasty will replace it. ”

Hearing this, Tong Guan couldn't listen anymore, and he immediately turned his head and asked his staff Li Tong, "How many garrisons are there in Jinling?" ”

Li Tong glanced at Cai Yi very jealously, and then said, "Originally, there were three generals and 12,000 people, but ......"

Tong Guan is the ancestor of empty salary, how can he not understand the greasy in this?

Therefore, Tong Guan was too lazy to talk nonsense, and asked bluntly, "Tell me how many people are actually there!" ”

Li Tongdao: "Three thousand at most." ”

Tong Guan's pupils shrank, and he said, "Only three thousand?" ”

Li Tongyu was not shocked, and said endlessly: "Moreover, most of these three thousand are van troops. ”

Tong Guan wanted to scold the Jinling guards for being too bold, he dared to eat empty salaries like this, did he understand the rules of eating empty salaries, and he didn't even keep thirty percent of the troops, what if something happened......

But Tong Guan couldn't say these words on the surface, so he could only ask Li Tong to bring the troop deployment map.

After watching for a long time, Tong Guan failed to find an army that could quickly rescue Jinling.

Tong Guan silently calculated the time in his heart, and then asked his other aide Han Jian, "How long is the fastest time to get from the Daimyo's Mansion to Jinling?" ”

Han Jian was quite calm, he didn't answer and asked, "Who is Xuan Xiang going to send to lead the army, and how many men and horses will he lead?" ”

Tong Guan thought for a while and said, "Send Yang Keshi to lead an army of three thousand horses." ”

Han Jian calculated and said, "Twenty days at the earliest." ”

"Twenty days? So long? Tong Guan said.

Han Jian explained, "Going south is not as good as being in Guanzhong, where the rivers are criss-crossed, the Ma army can't run, they have to cross river by river, and they have to pass through one checkpoint after another, and there is also the problem of logistics and supply, so twenty days is already very optimistic, if something happens halfway, they may not be able to reach Jinling in a month." ”

"A month?"

Tong Guan shook his head and said, "No, Ben Shuai can give them ten days at most, not one more day." ”

Han Jian listened to the words and was silent.

From Bianliang City in Tokyo to the Daimyo Mansion in Beijing, it takes three days to speed up.

It will take two or three days to prepare for the expedition again, and this is still under the condition that Yang Keshi leads the troops, if it is someone else, he may not be ready to send troops in ten days.

In this way, at least six days have passed.

Therefore, it is simply impossible to reach Gangneung in ten days.

As soon as everyone saw that Han Jian was silent, they knew that Tong Guan's request was not possible for Han Jian.

Tong Guan is also a veteran of more than 20 years, so he naturally knows that his requirements are too harsh.

But the current situation does not allow Tong Guan not to be in a hurry, if Jinling, which is not heavily guarded, is really occupied by Fang La, then this war will be difficult to fight, and his Yanyun dream can only be a dream.

Tong Guan thought for a while and said, "What if it's by water?" ”

Han Jian sighed and said, "It will take about this much time. ”

Tong Guan's brows tightened, and he said, "Why does the waterway take so much time?" ”

Han Jian replied, "Our western army has no navy, and there are no ships, if you want to take the waterway, it is necessary to mobilize the navy to cooperate, the closest navy to the Daimyo Mansion is the Yongji Navy, not long ago, because of the recovery of Yanyun, it was transferred to transport grain, and now it should go to the area of Beiwang Town, just to transfer it back, it will take at least ten days, and it will take longer to transfer other sailors to the Daimyo Mansion." ”

Except for Cai Zhen, who was standing on the sidelines and watching the excitement, no one expected that the Fang La uprising would suddenly break out.

Before that, all the preparations made by the Great Song court were to the north, not to the south.

Therefore, now that all the sailors are transporting grain to Hebei, how can they say that they will be transferred back?

"A month? Can Fang La give Ben Shuai a month? ”

Calm as a child, I can't help but become worried, and I can't help but walk back and forth.

Walking and walking, Tong Guan suddenly saw Cai Yi in the corner of his eye.

Tong Guan's heart moved, then he looked at Cai Ying and asked, "What is Ziyin's best plan?" ”

Cai still said, "The last general doesn't have a very good way, but the last general has the advantage of geography, and he has an amphibious battalion and dozens of big ships in his hands, so the last general should be able to reach Gangneung in ten days." ”

When Tong Guan heard it, he was happy!

But—

The joy in Tong Guan's eyes flashed, and he said, "In this way, Zi because of your Jinwu Army will be the vanguard of the whole army." I order your troops to arrive in Gangneung within seven days, stop the rebels from going north, and if they are overdue, they will be dealt with by military law!" ”

"Seven days?"

Many people listened to Tong Guan's words, and they all smiled coldly, and said in their hearts, "If you don't think about yourself, this will be beaten by Xuanxiang, right?" ”

In the eyes of others, it was simply impossible to lead a large army to Gangneung in seven days, even by water.

You must know that Cai is still in Bianliang City, Tokyo.

Back to the Jinwu Army, why will it take two days?

After returning to the Jinwu Army, it will take three days to mobilize the Jinwu Army scattered all over the country, right?

In the remaining two days, even if all the officers and men of the Jinwu Army put on their wings, it would be impossible to fly to Jinling.

In other words, in their opinion, Cai is still impossible to complete the task assigned to him by Tong Guan, and he must be dealt with by Tong Guan's military law.

Many people who are familiar with Tong Guan can even guess that Tong Guan is likely to beat Cai Ying's twenty military sticks in public and kill Cai Ying's majesty and arrogance.

This is Tong Guan's way of employing people, in the army, he does not allow others to disobey him, even if it is good intentions - in the army, he wants absolute dominance.

Therefore, even if Cai still stood up to help him and help Da Song, Tong Guan had to knock Cai Ying.

When Cai still understands that he Tong Guan is absolutely not disobedient in the army, and he Tong Guan bows his arrogant head, he Tong Guan will give Cai Yi a few sweet dates to eat, and then take advantage of the situation to include Cai Ying in his Tong Guan's bag.

"You Cai still don't want to, not everyone can be treated like this by my Tong Guan - only those who I am optimistic about can get this honor."

"Of course, the premise is that you must be aware of current affairs, otherwise, I, Tong Guan, will definitely suppress you to the end and not give you any chance to get ahead!"

It's a pity -

Tong Guan didn't know what kind of ship Cai still owned by the wealthy Cai, nor did he know that the Jinwu Army had a communication artifact of this era-carrier pigeons, and he didn't know how fast the disciplined Jinwu Army marched, and then he didn't know that it would only take five days for the vanguard of the Jinwu Army to land in Gangneung.

Moreover, Tong Guan didn't know at all that everything Cai still said to him was to scare him, Fang La's short-sighted guy would not choose to go north to seize Jiangling, let alone cross the river to attack Jiangbei, he only had the southeast in his eyes, and he only wanted to be the emperor in the southeast.

In addition, Cai still never thought of standing on Tong Guan's team.

Tong Guan is the commander, and Cai Ying's goal is also the commander, at least to divide some military power from Tong Guan.

In other words, Tong Guan is actually a potential competitor of Cai Ying.

In this case, how could Cai still give in to Tong Guan?

Therefore, in the face of Tong Guan's beating, Cai still didn't seem to know, he said, "Seven days, time is a little tight, but the last general will definitely try to seize Jiangling before Fang La's gang arrives in Jiangling." ”

When Tong Guan heard this, his face sank suddenly, and then he smiled and said, "Ziyin, don't misunderstand that Ben Shuai asked you to lead the people of your headquarters to Jiangling in seven days to target you, but Jiangling is too important in this place, and the time is tight and the task is heavy, so we must race against time." ”

Cai still said: "The last general knows." ”

Seeing that Cai was still still unconvinced, Tong Guan's tone changed, and he said, "In case you slack off, you have to set up a military order for this commander." ”

Cai still said in his heart, "This is to confirm what I said, in order to clean me up with evidence in the future?" ”

Cai still smiled coldly in his heart, but said quietly, "The military order is indispensable, but there is one thing that you have to ask Xuan Xiang first." ”

Tong Guan smiled and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Cai still said, "If our Jinwu army repels Fang La's gang after arriving in Jiangling, or if Fang La's gang does not go north at all, then can my Jinwu army continue to go south?" ”

Cai was still busy and explained, "Don't misunderstand, Xuanxiang, after all, my Jinwu army only needs seven days to reach Jinling, but you have to take twenty or thirty days to arrive at Jinling one after another, but there is a time difference of one or twenty days, if you don't make good use of it, I'm too sorry God gave us the opportunity to Da Song." ”

Speaking of this, Cai still looked at Tong Guan, smiled brightly, and said, "Moreover, didn't Xuan Xiang say it just now, we must race against time, solve Fang La's gang of rebels as soon as possible, and we can go north to recover Yanyun ...... as soon as possible."
