After disposing of Zhang Yehong, the pot of the Battle of Peace was almost divided, and of course, there were many "fish with a filter net" among them.

For example, the defenders of Tuxian County sat back and watched the cavalry of the Jin army pass through their own defense area, and did not remind the defenders of Luo County to pay attention in time, although there was a reason why the Wen was involved by Qin Qi's department and could not successfully warn, but the defenders of Tuxian County still had a certain responsibility.

If you are an ordinary general, it is estimated that you would have followed the eldest grandson Yuting to Huangquan a long time ago, but with the support of his father Changjihou, he was safe and sound, so he only got a reprimand, and continued to be his guard without worry.

It is true that this is because Wen Pai's responsibility is not great, and his father Changjihou has a lot of influence, and many people help to intercede, but the more reason is that Ji Linbing does not want to expand the responsibility for the burning of the safe granary out of Luo County.

There's no way, this matter is too big, if all of them are held accountable, let alone Wen Xian, even Ji Linbing, the boss, will also bear a lot of responsibility.

There are also generals in charge of logistics and scheduling, officials in charge of transporting and transporting grain, and even the chief generals of the defense points to which Luo County belongs, and the defenders of the counties near Luo County.

If it comes to how the Jin army learned the information of the granary, then the entire Western Zhou court and the front-line army are suspicious.

The scope of involvement is so wide, at the moment of the war, if the whole army is panicked because of this, what will Ji Linbing do to fight against the Jin army.

So on the bright side, Ji Linbing put all the responsibility on the defenders of Luo County, and they punished them heavily, and the rest of the people involved were all small and small.

This method seems very unfair, but it is the best way to deal with Ji Linbing, the coach, and it is also the result that many people are happy to see.

Well, except for those Luo County generals who were divided into pots.........

……………

However, although due to the overall situation, Ji Linbing put aside his anger and held back, but secretly he still sent someone to investigate carefully, and he wanted to find out how Ping'an's information was revealed.

For this reason, Ji Linbing also specially contacted Mei Qianqiu, the commander of the Western Zhou Procuratorate, and asked him to help investigate.

And this prosecutor's office, that is, the official intelligence agency of the Western Zhou Dynasty, has a status similar to that of Long Xiaoxiao in the Northern Jin Dynasty, and at the same time, because of the hostile relationship between the two countries, these two departments have not been less "dealing", and they are old rivals of each other.

Ji Linbing sent troops to fight for promotion this time, and the Prosecutor's Office also sent many cadres to help assist in intelligence work, but who expected them to do a good job on the front line, but there was a fire in their backyard.

The Procuratorate's Office, as an official intelligence agency, naturally bears unshirkable responsibility for the leakage of important military intelligence on its own side.

Ji Linbing asked Mei Qianqiu for help, firstly, he really needed the professional means of the Prosecutor's Office, and secondly, it also implied that he would beat. It is good to rectify the fine work of the Northern Jin Dynasty and make up for the merits, but if the merit is not established, it is difficult to ensure that General Ji will not turn over the accounts.

The Prosecutor's Office is a royal eagle dog, and the intelligence is suppressed, and the officials of the Western Zhou Dynasty are afraid of it, but this does not include Ji Linbing, if the Prosecutor's Office wants to provoke His Royal Highness, the front foot is bad, and the back foot Ji Linbing can take the soldiers and horses to shovel the yamen of the Prosecutor's Office.

Military power is always General Ji's greatest confidence, and if he does not lose military power in his hands, the royalist party or the prince's mansion will not be able to lose it for a day.

This is the truth that the Empress Dowager Ning, the Hou Party, the Royalist Party, and other Western Zhou courtiers and generals all understand.........

……………

The idle text is less narrated, and the book is back to the main story.

Zhou Junshuai's account

After the peace affair was over, Ji Linbing turned to business and asked the generals where the army should go next.

Peng Kuohai of the Jin army in front mentioned at the meeting that once the grain and grass of the Zhou army were lost, and the grain and grass in the rear could not be transported in a short time, then the Zhou army would definitely be in a crisis of food shortage.

In this situation, whether to fight to the death or withdraw the troops and return to China has become the top priority in front of Ji Linbing and the generals of the Zhou army.

Ji Linbing's meaning is very simple, let him give up the current strategic advantage of the Zhou army and the two mansions of Nanling and Beiling, which were fought down with great difficulty, His Royal Highness King Li must be reluctant.

Therefore, he wants to fight to the death with the Jin army and take the general pass before the army is cut off from food.

Once the Zhou army took the General Pass, the Jin army's Baili defense line would lose the biggest key barrier, and it would collapse without attacking, and at the same time, most of the county towns in Guangqing and Quliang Prefecture, which were protected by the Baili defense line, would not be in danger to defend.

At that time, even if the Jin army burned the grain in the general's pass, as long as the Zhou army waved its troops to capture a few county seats, it would not be a problem to hold on to the rear to transport new grain.

Ji Linbing made this decision, Peng Kuohai expected it, and Ji Linbing also expected that Peng Kuohai would guess that he made this decision.

Both of them are very confident, one is confident that he can break through the General Pass within ten days, and the other is confident that he can hold the General Pass, drag down the Zhou army, and change the battle situation between the two sides.

…………

However, Ji Linbing's decision was opposed by Ning Dewu and other Zhou generals.

This time, Ning Dewu was not because of party disputes, so he opposed it for the sake of opposition, he really disagreed with Ji Linbing's decision to smash the general pass to the death, thinking that this approach was stupid and reckless.

In fact, putting aside the self-confidence of the two coaches, to put it bluntly, the fierce battle between Zhou and Jin at the moment is a big gamble between the two coaches.

They believe they will win the bet, but outsiders may not support their bet.

Especially Ji Linbing, he and Peng Kuohai's situation is different, Peng has an advantage, and he can't wait to gamble with Ji Linbing on this game and drag down the Zhou army, this is a stable and high-success combat plan, and the Jin army of course supports it.

And Ji Linbing's side chose to knock the generals to the death, in a sense, the winning side is small, the chips are high, and if you don't do it well, it will be a complete defeat, and naturally you will not get the support and understanding of Ning Dewu and other generals of the Zhou army.

Even if it weren't for Ji Linbing's high prestige, everyone would have thought that he was stunned by the loss of peace.

Of course, Ji Linbing is not without supporters, not to mention the loyalists of the royalist party led by Guo Tian, Song Xia actually expressed support for Ji Linbing on behalf of his brother Song Han,

The reason is very simple, he is reluctant to give up the current good situation of the Zhou army, if he retires, he will not be able to show Cai Hua, the "outstanding" coach of the Jin army, next time.

For a time, the withdrawal party led by Ning Dewu quarreled with the die-hard party led by Ji Linbing.

Stubbornly smash the party and have a slight upper hand............

…………

At this time, Lu Ba, who had been silent and did not express his position, suddenly spoke, he neither supported the withdrawal of troops, nor did he respond to the stubborn knock, but asked whether it was possible to collect grain in Nanling and Beiling on the spot.

As soon as Lu Ba's proposal came out, the tent was full of silence, everyone was leading the troops, who didn't understand what it meant to collect grain on the spot, that is, to grab food by arson.........

This thing is quite unauthentic, and if you don't know it, you will have to leave two strokes in the history books in the future.

In a certain year, the Zhou army plundered the people, the soldiers were like combs, the people had no rations, and after a few months, they were hungry for thousands of miles, and they were eaten, and purgatory in the world was because of so-and-so.

Tsk, with such a few strokes, your reputation in this life will be completely ruined.

Thinking of this, the generals, you look at me, I look at you, although many people agreed with Lu Ba's plan in their hearts, but they didn't speak, and in the end, it was Ji Linbing, the boss, who spoke up and vetoed Lu Ba's proposal.

Ji Linbing is not afraid of tarnishing his reputation, but considering the overall situation, as said before, Nanling and Beiling are the border barriers between Jinzhou, and the location is dangerous, which is a place where soldiers must fight, and it is also a place where the Zhou army must take Yongzhou.

In such an important place, it's too late to appease the people and win over the people, and the soldiers are grabbing food, doesn't this push the people's hearts to the Northern Jin Dynasty.

To put it mildly, the Zhou army was defeated this time and was forced to withdraw from the two prefectures, but it did not damage the hearts of the people in the two places, and it was believed that the military and civilian resistance of the two prefectures of Nanling and Beiling was not very fierce.

On the contrary, if the Zhou army grabs grain, then it will inevitably provoke civil unrest in the two prefectures, and even if the entire Yongzhou is captured, the people of the two prefectures will be in big trouble, and if it is not good, it will also drive the rest of the prefectures and counties in Yongzhou to be hostile to the Zhou army.

What the Western Zhou Dynasty wants to do is to dominate the world, and the people's will must be considered more, and short-sighted actions must not be taken lightly.

…………

Most of the generals were persuaded by Ji Linbing's words, although Lu Ba was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything, Ji Linbing took advantage of the situation to promote the battle plan of the general.

Ning Dewu naturally didn't allow it, but he was helplessly outnumbered, just now Ji Linbing relied on a speech and gained a lot of impression points, so he attracted many of the original withdrawal parties to defect, and finally let Ji Linbing get his wish.

The Zhou army attacked the city with all its might, took the general pass within ten days, and put it to death and survived.

At the same time, in order to prevent the defense points of the Baili defense line from dividing troops to reinforce Jiangguan, Ji Linbing sent Ning Dewu to Nanling Mansion to command the Zhou army of all departments in Nanling, involving the Jin army of the Quliang defense line, and Song Xia returned to Beiling to assist Song Han to involve the Jin army of the Guangqing defense line.

Ji Lin's deployment idea vaguely coincided with Peng Kuohai.

Peng and Ji led the main force to defeat the general pass, Song Han and Dianshou Yu fought in Guangqing-Beiling, and Di Yi and Ning Dewu confronted in Quliang-Nanling.

Three-way Jin Army VS Three-Way Zhou Army.

The most harmonious decisive battle has been invisibly formed.

Of course, Peng Kuohai also sent Tang Xiang to copy the back road of the Zhou army, which Ji Linbing also thought of, he gave Lu Ba 20,000 horses, and asked him to defend the area around Yuhu Beach, once the Zhou army was defeated, to ensure that the retreat route was smooth.

After confirming the battle plan, the generals of all departments took orders one after another, even Ning Dewu, who was not satisfied with Ji Linbing, was no exception.

Public is public, private is private, no matter how hard the two sides fight in the court, but in the face of military orders, they can't be ambiguous at all, if Ning Dewu disobeys orders and disrespects or Yang Fengyin disobeys and makes small moves in private, as long as he is caught, Ji Linbing can cut him in the name of violating military regulations.

Therefore, don't look at the fierce fight with Ji Linbing just now, Ji Linbing officially ordered it, and Ning Dewu had to act honestly according to his orders.

After the generals left, Ji Linbing personally wrote a letter to the Empress Dowager Ning, which explained the process of the fall of Ping'an, and stated his own responsibility, expressing his willingness to return to the dynasty After the liquidation, Ji Linbing urged the Empress Dowager Ning to quickly raise grain and grass to support the front line.

After writing, Ji Linbing asked people to hurry up and send them to Mingjing for 800 miles.

Since it has been decided to continue the battle, the matter of grain and grass in the rear cannot be delayed, and it must be sent to the front line as soon as possible, although Ji Linbing also knows that the food of hundreds of thousands of troops is not good, but the situation is like this, he can only let Empress Dowager Ning work harder............
