Chapter 219: The Battle of Sending Troops (Second Update)

At this time, sending troops can be described as complicity, after all, Jianzhou belongs to Dongchuan, according to reason, this is Dongchuan's internal affairs, if Shannan Xidao intervenes, the name is not right.

But if you don't intervene and watch the Jianmen Pass be recaptured by Gao Renhou, your previous efforts will be in vain, and you will lose a strategic place in vain.

The Jianmen Pass is in their hands, and it is a deterrent to Dongchuan, they can advance and retreat freely, and the initiative is also in their hands.

Therefore, as for whether to send troops, the Jiedu envoy government was noisy.

Shouwang Fu and Shannan West Daoist Zheng Zheng, Wang Hui, the observation envoy, and Wang Zhongxian, the supervisor of Shannan West Dao, all thought that troops should not be sent, this was an internal matter of Dongchuan, and they at most reported this matter to the imperial court and let the imperial court call the shots.

However, Sima Pei Rong of the Shannan West Road March, Sima Zheng Ningji of the Tiance Army, Yin Sun Ye of Xingyuan Mansion, and Li Yingxu of Xingyuan Mansion Shao Yin thought that troops should be sent to at least restore the previous situation.

In fact, this can be seen from the clues, the opposition is basically not Li Ye's cronies, or Li Ye's people. Zheng Zheng doesn't count, Wang Hui doesn't count, and Wang Zhongxian, the nominal prison army, doesn't count.

As for the last of the Big Four, Yang Hanzhou, the political envoy, did not express his position, because his position was more embarrassing, so he simply did not express his position and did his best. Whether he fights or not, it has nothing to do with him, he is a person who manages civil affairs and finances, and the army is not under his control, so why should he get involved.

The so-called Big Four are the four deputies under Li Ye. They are Zheng Zheng, the academic administration, Wang Hui, the observation envoy, Sima Peirong, and the political envoy Yang Hanzhou.

However, in terms of real power, Zheng Jin and Wang Hui do not count at all. So another version of the Big Four is that these two people were replaced by Liu Qi, the lieutenant general of the Right Tiance Army, and Yin Sun Ye of Xingyuan Mansion.

Of course, this is all made up and played by some idlers themselves, but many of the old people of the Shou Wangfu and Tiance Army are the second version of the letter.

Returning to the topic, both sides insist on their own words, which also makes the situation a little uncontrollable.

In fact, Li Ye didn't want to discuss this matter like this, but he couldn't hide this matter, so he took it out in the bright light, at least to show respect for the other people.

"Alright, stop arguing." Looking at the noisy situation, Li Ye scolded loudly.

Although Li Ye is the youngest of everyone, Li Ye in the fifth year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty is just 18 years old, but his words are still true.

So after he shouted, the living room fell silent, looking at these people in front of him, Li Ye also had a headache, and asked Zhang Wei to take out a letter that had been opened from the side, holding the letter and saying.

"This is the information that Jinyiwei sent back from Chang'an, the content in it is very simple, Tian Lingzi is tempted by the salt pond in the river, and wants to snatch the salt pond from Wang Chongrong and return it to the country.

At present, Wang Chongrong did not agree, and did not obey the will of the imperial court. After speaking, Li Ye looked at the people in front of him.

In fact, when they heard Jinyiwei, everyone was also a little surprised, but they didn't take it to heart.

This Jinyiwei was indeed established by Li Ye, which is somewhat similar to the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty in history, but it is a little different.

Li Ye has always wanted to set up an intelligence department of his own, as for the name, Li Ye thought a lot, what intelligence department, military intelligence department, but in the end it was changed to Jinyiwei.

and the brocade guards of the Ming Dynasty in history: guards on duty; investigation and arrest; The three major functions and powers of the edict and prison are different. Li Ye's Jinyi Guard was only responsible for his security and reconnaissance functions as well as those of the royal staff.

To put it simply, Li Ye changed his prince's tent mansion into Jinyiwei, and in addition to maintaining the security of the palace, he added an intelligence investigation function.

What kind of edict, arrest or something, Li Ye has not given Jinyiwei this power.

During the Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei and Dongchang caused a lot of things because of their too big powers, so Li Ye was also very cautious. And just change the name and add an intelligence reconnaissance and collection function, and the people below will not object much.

As for the first commander, it was naturally the Prince's Mansion Warden Lin Ke. The official rank has not changed, and it is still on the fifth grade, which is also why Li Ye does not want to stimulate the nerves of others.

So for him to change his personal soldiers to Jinyiwei, no one else objected, it was just a change of title, you can change it casually.

"What does Your Highness mean?" Wang Zhongxian said curiously.

"With Tian Lingzi's temperament, he must not give up if he does not seize the salt pond. Wang Chongrong monopolizes the profits of the two salt pools, and his soldiers are strong and strong, so he will not be so easily softened.

And after Tian Lingzi returned to Chang'an, he also needed Liwei, plus the wealth contained in the two salt pools, it was very likely that the soldiers would meet. At this time, we'd better not stir up the nerves of the court, otherwise we will directly point the finger at us, which will be a troublesome matter, after all, the relationship between this king and Tian Lingzi is not good, and there is even enmity. ”

As soon as Li Ye finished speaking, Pei Rong was a little anxious, "But Your Highness, the Sword Gate Pass is very important to us, if we sit and watch Gao Renhou take the Sword Gate Pass, we will be very passive in the future." ”

Li Ye waved his hand, "Pei Sima, don't worry. If we don't stir up the nerves of the imperial court now, it doesn't mean that we don't care about the matter of Jianmen Pass. Before the rebellion in Sanzhou, Dongchuan was fueling the troubles, and now Gao Renhou is pressing step by step, if this king retreats, wouldn't he feel that this king is easy to bully.

Zhang Shi'an's side must be reinforced, but it can't be in the name of the Tiance Army, just ensure that Jianmen Pass is not lost, and then see the development of the situation in Guanzhong.

We don't send troops, but Zhang Shi'an can recruit troops in Longzhou and other places, can't we? ”

"Your Highness, this is not appropriate, is it?" Wang Hui questioned.

"What's out of place? That's it. Li Ye couldn't refuse.

Li Ye's meaning, where everyone still doesn't understand, it's nothing more than a trick.

It means that the Tiance Army sent troops but did not fight the banner of the Tiance Army, even if Gao Renhou found out and then played the imperial court, Li Ye would not admit it if he died.

After the discussion, Pei Rong and Li Yingxu stayed, while the others went back to their own business.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty is worried that after we intervene, a larger war may break out with Dongchuan. Gao Renhou is quite arrogant, and he has long been dissatisfied with our control of Jianzhou and Longzhou, if our reinforcements are detected by Gao Renhou, it will definitely make the other party angry, and it is likely to turn into a larger-scale war.

At that time, it will be difficult to deal with it only by relying on the front of the Right Tiance Army and the Lizhou garrison. Xia Guan suggested that Wang Jianbu be transferred to Langzhou to ensure that he could support him at any time. ”

As soon as the others left, Li Yingxu expressed his worries in a little anxious.

"This king plans to transfer the Shenji Battalion to Lizhou." Li Ye spoke his mind.

"Divine Machine Battalion?"

Hearing that Li Ye was going to mobilize the Shenji Battalion, Pei Rong and Li Yingxu were taken aback, and the two of them naturally knew what it meant.

The Shenji Battalion does not belong to the Tiance Army, but directly belongs to the command of Li Ye. Although this unit has not been established for a long time, it has the most powerful weapons in Shannan Xidao--- Tiance artillery and rockets.

The main role of the Shenji Battalion is to attack the city, and the big killing weapon is absolutely invincible in the siege, even if the Jianmen Pass is lost, the Shenji Battalion may also take the Jianmen Pass from the front.

Li Ye's mobilization of the Shenji Battalion was obviously to expand the scale of the battle, and even evolved into a full-scale war between Shannan Xidao and Dongchuan.

In other words, Li Yexiang annexed Dongchuan.

Thinking of this possibility, both of them were taken aback, and they wanted to confirm from Li Ye whether the guess in their hearts was true.

"Does Your Highness want to take the opportunity to start a war against Dongchuan? But didn't His Highness say before that he didn't want to stimulate the nerves of the imperial court because of this matter? Li Yingxu was a little puzzled.

"It's just a time difference. With our reinforcements, it will be impossible for Gao Renhou to take the Sword Gate Pass for a while, and when he guesses that we are hindering us, it will take time to play the imperial court.

ゑ新ダ~(8)~1~Chinese 碲ωωω.Ο‡~8.~1zΡ‰.cΓ²ΠΌ

We can set up checkpoints in Shu Dao and find a way to intercept Dongchuan's report to the imperial court.

In this way, when the imperial court learns about the Jianmen Pass, it is very likely that it will be a month or two later, and when the time comes, it will be impossible for the imperial court to make a big move against us.

Taking advantage of this time, we can gather troops, mobilize supplies, and prepare for an all-out war against Dongchuan.

And on the side of the imperial court, I believe that Tian Lingzi will also make a move against Wang Chongrong, and even if we start a war with Dongchuan at that time, the imperial court will not have time to take care of it. ”

"Your Highness, what if Tian Lingzi and Wang Chongrong keep arguing like this without using force?" Pei Rong asked.

"Then fan the flames, create rumors, let Wang Chongrong jump over the wall in a hurry, and let Tian Lingzi have to issue an order to crusade against Wang Chongrong." Li Ye said fiercely.

There is no way, only if Tian Lingzi and Wang Chongrong start a war, can his side start a full-scale war against Dongchuan.

Don't look at the population of Dongchuan is not much less than that of Shannan West Road, but Gao Renhou does not completely control Dongchuan. Many of Gao Renhou's troops were newly recruited, and they had just occupied Dongchuan, and the people's hearts were unstable, so it was most appropriate to attack Gao Renhou at this time.

As for wooing Gao Renhou, since Gao Renhou interfered in the rebellion in the three states, he gave up this idea. If you can't be your own person, then get rid of the other party.

Pei Rong couldn't help but be stunned, it seemed that he still underestimated King Shou's courage, "Your Highness, but if we really start a war with Dongchuan, we may not only face Dongchuan at that time, but also Xichuan's troops."

Gao Renhou's army is not many, and if he is defeated, it is very likely that he will ask Xichuan for help. In the past few years, Xichuan has a large number of generals, and Xichuan itself is rich, so when the time comes, we will be able to directly start a war with the East and West Erchuan at the same time.

Wouldn't that be too risky? ”

"The adventure is certain, but our goal is only to take Dongchuan first, and Xichuan is not in consideration for the time being. However, if you can take the opportunity to weaken Xichuan's strength, it is not impossible to take some risks. Li Ye said seriously.

If Li Ye wants to achieve great things in the future, he must have a good rear base, and Shannan West Road is not very rich after all. Therefore, only by winning the East and West Erchuan can he have the strength to compete with those heroes.

Seeing Li Ye say this, the two knew that the other party was determined to take Dongchuan. In a certain way, they are not opposed to taking Dongchuan, but they feel a little risky.

However, the risk is proportional to the benefit, and it is not to start a war now, if it is according to Li Ye, there are still a few months before a full-scale war, and you can take advantage of this time to prepare well.

When the time comes, they will be strong and strong, and they may not be able to take Dongchuan quickly.

If Dongchuan is taken, Shouwang can succeed. And as the old man who followed King Shou, they also have the skill of following the dragon, how can this not make them excited?
