Chapter 98: Polemics

On the second day of Xiang Xun's departure, Guo Rong received Fu Yanqing's intensified recital, and the Khitan Yang Gon Department really took the lead out of the ancient pass. Bayi Chinese Network After that, the Khitan cavalry ran away without a trace on the Hebei Great Plain. Guo Rong can only delegate power to Xiang Xun and let him act cheaply.

Yang Gon's troops evacuated Luzhou, so only Hedong people were left in Luzhou. At this time, Guo Rong was no longer polite, and was ready to mobilize an army to strive for the annihilation of Liu Chongquan. But Zhao Kuangyin found Guo Rong: "Yang Gon entered Hebei, Liu Chong's strength is very weak, Your Majesty, but do you want to go north to Luzhou and fight Liu Chong?" ”

There were only two people in the military tent, Guo Rong and Zhao Kuangyin, Guo Rong smiled and said: "Old Seven, I do have this plan, now that the enemy is separated, I can only repel one first, and then force the other away." ”

"But Your Majesty, if our army goes north, Liu Chong can't resist the pressure, and the defenders go back, then... What should we do? Zhao Kuangyin asked.

There is Chu in the south of the Great Zhou Dynasty and Khitan in the north, but Liu Chongbu, who is in the cracks, should not be underestimated. At least the strength of Hedong is far greater than that of Shu. In addition, Hedong is the land of Longxing, in just 30 years, how many emperors and generals have walked out of Hedong and stepped onto the stage of history. Of course, Guo Rong solved Hedong once and for all, but if Liu Chong decided to shrink up, no matter how strong Zhou Jun's skills were, there was no way. Therefore, Guo Rong was very hesitant about He Ru's march, and Zhao Kuangyin's words were like opening a door, which made him have some thoughts in his heart, Guo Rong smiled: "Old Seven, there are no outsiders, don't be so restrained, let's talk about it, what plan do you have?" ”

Zhao Kuangyin smiled lightly and said: "Third brother, junior brother has sent many scouts in the past few days, carefully observed Liu Chong's camp, and some interesting phenomena have appeared. ”

Guo Rong listened carefully, he knew that if he wanted to talk about charging into battle, he wouldn't be able to catch up with the righteous brother in front of him. In the depths of Guo Rong's heart, he was still proud that he was able to easily attract such a talent back then, and even more, he was pulled away from under the nose of his lifelong opponent Ma Yun.

"First, is Liu Chong's grain transportation team, or is it a steady stream of grain and grass to the eldest son's area, Liu Chong's camp; Second, Liu Chong obviously strengthened the search for Taihang Mountain, but the scouts also secretly crossed Taihang Mountain and ran to the area of Xingzhou; Third, Liu Chongjun's continuous training and the morale of the sergeants were quite high. Fourth, Liu Chong's troops continued to send small forces to operate in the north of Gaoping, and there were many conflicts with Lao Jiu's troops. Fifth, Liu Chong's reconnaissance activities in the areas of Gaoping and Jincheng have never stopped, and even in Lingchuan and Malaoshan, there are scout activities. ”

Guo Rong looked at the map and asked suspiciously: "Old Seven, do you mean that Liu Chong has no intention of retreating north?" ”

"Third brother, we don't have high-level details in Liu Chongjun, Liu Chong is also strict with the management of the barracks, and the news can't be delivered, as for Liu Chongjun's next move, we can only judge by the performance of the Hedong Army. Judging from the current situation, the younger brother can't help but say that Liu Chong not only has no intention of retreating north, but he still wants to go south! Zhao Kuangyin asserted.

"Yang Gon took about 20,000 people, Liu Chonghedong's soldiers and horses plus the rest of Yang Gon's troops, the attack was only 60,000 people, we have more than 100,000 troops in Jinzhou, and he dares to come?" Guo Rong said suspiciously: "Liu Chong is indeed arrogant, but he is also very cunning, obviously disadvantaged, can't he see it?" Could it be that he wants to take advantage of the fact that when our army is forcibly advancing north, he will suddenly go south to beat us and rub his hands? ”

Zhao Kuangyin changed his words and said, "Third brother, don't you think that Liu Chong has a lot of unreasonable things going south this time?" ”

Guo Rong looked at Zhao Kuangyin hesitantly, and muttered, "Unreasonable? "Liu Chong's performance during this period of time is not the same as the impression he left on himself in Taiyuan back then. However, after all, it has been nearly ten years, and people are going to become.

"The younger brother means that Liu Chong's plan to fight south is inconsistent. As a commander of the army, as long as you have a little common sense, you should not make such a mistake. ”

Guo Rong stood with his hands in his hands and said in a deep voice: "Liu Chong first teamed up with the Khitans to conquer Luzhou, and after the setback in Luzhou, he not only did not give up, but became more and more courageous, and even wanted to abandon Luzhou and go straight to Zezhou. ”

"Hmph... Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the etiquette and music have collapsed, the discipline has not existed, and the chaotic ministers and thieves have emerged in an endless stream, and the reason why I want to drive the expedition in person is not because I am afraid of Liu Chong, but because some people also think that my foundation is weak and the rats are at both ends, thus misleading the country's major affairs. Therefore, I forcibly ordered to understand the army of Hebei Zhulu and gather in Jincheng, and I will personally supervise the army, so that those who have two hearts have no room to wait and see, and can only choose in front of me and Liu Chong! Guo Rong said magnificently.

"However, when I arrived in Jincheng, the army also came. Liu Chong actually flinched. He actually stayed in the area of his eldest son and never went south to Zezhou again, didn't he know that delay was the most disadvantageous to Hedong? Guo Rong said puzzled.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks so too." Seeing Guo Rong's mouthful of "I", Zhao Kuangyin didn't dare to call himself a "little brother" anymore: "Your Majesty, to put it mildly, the combat effectiveness of the army in Hedong is not weak, plus there are Khitan elites, even if we have 10,000 troops, as long as Liu Chong is determined to go south, it is really hard to say who will win and who will lose in a big battle." But he just stopped, however, sent the Khitans to make a detour to attack Hebei, which... What is the benefit of doing this for Liu Chong? ”

Guo Rong sneered: "Of course he thinks that this can involve our army and distract our army's attention." Let him fish in troubled waters! ”

"Your Majesty, on the contrary, the minister feels that dividing the troops before the battle is not beneficial to Liu Chong at all, not to mention the missed opportunity, and he has completely fallen into passivity. Enter, there are 100,000 Zhou troops in front, and retreat, it will greatly hurt morale. As you imagine, our army has indeed divided its forces now, but five days ago it was 100,000 against 80,000, and now it is 80,000 against 60,000, and our military superiority has not only not decreased, but has increased somewhat. Zhao Kuangyin said.

"Then why did Liu Chong agree?" Guo Rong asked rhetorically. Zhao Kuangyin's words are very reasonable, if you want to withdraw from the army, retreat to the township and county north of Luzhou (now Wuxiang County, Changzhi City, Shanxi), backed by Taiyuan Mansion, you can advance or retreat, which is much more advantageous than being sandwiched in the eldest son now.

"Because he's been fooled!" Zhao Kuangyin said slowly.
