When I fought in the past, I always thought about how to fight, and I never thought about thinking about the overall layout of the entire Youzhou battlefield from a macro perspective.

Today, Zhang Wei said this, and immediately reminded Zhang Zhifang and Zhang Yunshen that if Zhang Zhifang of Liaodong sent troops to attack the tribes in the east of Shanxi, Zhang Zhongwu of Youzhou sent troops between Qilaotu Mountain and Nurul Tiger Mountain, and occupied the river valley between the two mountains, so that he could block the waist and cut the five parts of Shanxi into two sections.

Of course, if this matter is placed in the past, it is also dangerous, after all, between the two mountains, it is very likely to be attacked by the five departments of Shanxi. But today is different, ** east and west attack together, so that the east of the Shanxi tribe can not look west, and the west of the Shanxi tribe can not go east because of the blockage of **.

At the same time, it can also block the exchange of information between the five departments, and no one knows what happened to the other party, so how can they support each other?

"Okay--, brother, you are amazing, you can come up with such a good way, yes, yes, this is a big move!" After listening to Zhang Wei's suggestion, Zhang Zhifang said happily, "There is not only a river valley between the two mountains, but also a relatively large river called Laoha River. So very good, so very good. ”

Then Zhang Zhifang said to Zhang Yunshen: "Old general, the reason why we have not been able to completely win all these years is that we only think about how to attack the enemy, and we have not considered how to eliminate Shan Xi from a big picture. According to Zhang Gongzi's suggestion, not only can the pressure on the Liaodong army be reduced, but the probability of victory will also be greatly increased. If you don't have any opinions, I'll repair the book to my father, so that he can send troops to the Laoha River to cut off the communication between the five departments. ”

Looking at Zhang Zhifang's happy expression, Zhang Wei continued: "Two generals, this is only the first move of our army, and at the same time as the military attack, I also have a second plan. ”

And a second step plan?

Feelings: Your combat strategy is to watch a TV series, and there is a second season after the first episode?

"Zhang Gongzi said to listen to it." Zhang Zhifang said to Zhang Wei with interest.

"My second step is to give gifts."

Gifts?

As soon as these two words came out, Zhang Zhifang and Zhang Yunshen were shocked.

War is war, and there is no such thing as fighting a war while giving gifts in the world. Could it be that you regard this war as a visit to relatives, fight a dozen, take a break, and then chat, Lala is homely?

However, Zhang Zhifang knew that since Zhang Wei could say this, he must have his thoughts.

"The general can send people to the tribes adjacent to the Yuan Qi Zhe Department, give them gold, silver, jewelry, cattle, sheep, horses and other materials, and say that we are willing to have a good relationship with them, and promise that once the Yuan Qi Zhe Department is conquered, we can give them the pastures of the Yuan Qi Zhe Department, I think people are selfish, and everyone will give up their principles in the face of interests." Zhang Wei said to Zhang Zhifang.

As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.

In the face of interests, friends, family affection, relationships, etc. can be given up.

After listening to Zhang Wei's words, Zhang Yunshen said: "Adjacent to the Yuan Qi Zhebu is the Du Ji Ministry, I heard that in the past few years, the Du Ji Department has had several conflicts with the Yuan Qi Zhe Department because of grassland disputes. ”

There is a contradiction between the Yuan Qi Zhebu and the Du Ji Ministry, haha, God really helps me!

"Lord Deputy Envoy, there is indeed a contradiction between the Yuan Qi Zhe Department and the Du Ji Department, and we just use the contradiction between the two departments to open the gap." Zhang Wei said happily to Zhang Zhifang.

Two different tribes, how can they stay together for a long time without touching the edge of the pot? There must be contradictions after a long time.

However, all contradictions must be viewed dialectically, when there is no foreign enemy, they touch the edge of the pot on the side of the bowl, you live and die, but once they encounter a foreign enemy, people can aim their pots and pans at the foreign enemy.

"Zhang Gongzi should not be happy, although there is a contradiction between the two parts of Shanxi, but the contradiction of the people belongs to the internal contradiction of the Shanxi tribe, and when we attack one of the people, the Shanxi people will still be connected to the outside world." Zhang Yunshen reminded.

"The old general can rest assured, it doesn't matter if they will be unanimous to the outside world. I don't care. As long as the head of the Inspectorate is willing to accept our gifts. As the saying goes: the hands of people are soft, and the mouth of eating people is short, and when we really attack the Yuan Qi Folding Department, the leader of the Duji Department who took our gift will definitely hesitate and hesitate. We must take advantage of the hesitation, hesitation, and hesitation of the Degree Audit Department to quickly take down the Yuan Qi Folded Department with lightning speed. Once we took the Yuan Qi Fold, the campaign against Shanxi was more than half successful. ”

Zhang Wei's words are about human nature, which shows that people have weaknesses, and the leader of the Duji Department accepted the bribe of Datang, so when Datang sent troops to the Yuan Qi Ministry, could he still send troops to help the Duji Ministry? Definitely not.

In the process of hesitation of the Du Ji Department, the ** led by Zhang Zhifang can raid the Yuan Qi Fold, and strive to eliminate the Yuan Folded Department in a very short time. Once the Yuan Qi fold was destroyed, the mouth of the five parts of Shan Xi was torn apart. After that, the Shanxi tribe will tear bigger and bigger like a broken drum until it is scrapped.

"Well--, Zhang Gongzi is right, no matter whether he really helps Yuan Qi in the Ministry of Discipline or not, as long as he is willing to accept our gifts, this shows that the five departments of Shanxi are not monolithic." Zhang Zhifang also agreed with Zhang Wei's statement.

That is to say, if the five departments of Shan Xi think in one place and work hard in one place, how can they accept your gift from Datang and accept bribes from Datang, it means that they have different hearts.

Whether it is ancient or modern, everyone has never been as simple as feeding their stomachs in everything, just like tonight's dinner, Zhang Zhifang, Zhang Yunshen and Zhang Wei have basically taken out the combat ideas and battle plans of Datang against Shanxi in the process of eating.

Through tonight's dinner, Zhang Wei also saw that the war in the era of cold weapons is much more interesting than modern warfare. Without super wisdom and strategy, it will never work.

No wonder the old general Zhang Yunshen is over 60 years old and still fighting on the front line, it turns out that this war also trains people! At least keep your mind in a state of thinking all the time, so that it doesn't become rigid and sluggish early.

It was already late at night, and the things that should be discussed were also discussed.

Zhang Wei and the other three had finished what they were going to say, and they were almost finished, and Zhang Wei walked out of the hall.

"Whew--" A cold wind blew, and Zhang Wei only felt that he was about to freeze through.

"Mom, why is this place so cold?"

It's cold, of course it's cold, it's the Northeast, it's a place where water is really dripping into ice. After soaking in the urine, Zhang Wei felt that he was about to stiffen.

Back in the house again, Zhang Yunshen had already arranged a place for Zhang Zhifang and Zhang Wei to live, Zhang Wei's room was next to the Liaodong General's Mansion, and it was only a few steps away.

There were braziers and other heating tools in the room, which was quite warm. After drinking some wine, the drowsiness became even stronger, and Zhang Wei slept soundly this night.

The next day, Zhang Zhifang sat in the Liaodong General's Mansion and began to arrange the crusade against Shanxi.

After the generals arrived, Zhang Yunshen took the lead, and the rest of the Liaodong generals followed behind him and bowed to Zhang Zhifang: "The last general, Zhang Yunshen, led all the generals of Liaodong to see the deputy envoy of Jiedu. ”

"The generals will get up." Zhang Zhifang said to everyone.

After getting up, the generals lined up on both sides of the lobby in order of their positions.

Zhang Zhifang glanced around and said: "Generals, in the past two years, Shanxi has invaded the boundary of Youzhou many times, killed my people, robbed me of grain and grass, and annexed our land. ”

After that, Zhang Zhifang took out the holy decree of the Tang Emperor and read it out in public. After the decree is read, the congregation will get up and return to their places again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone has also heard the holy decree of His Majesty the Emperor, the holy order is difficult to disobey, we and other Youzhou soldiers should fight bravely to kill the enemy, report the benevolence of the saint, and the desire of the people of Anli to be peaceful, do you have the confidence to exterminate the mountain thieves?"

"We will swear to serve the court and kill the thieves." In the lobby, the generals said loudly.

"Okay--, I will definitely report your loyalty to the emperor, and when I succeed in exterminating Shanxi in the future, I will report to the court along with your military exploits." Zhang Zhifang said to the generals.

"We thank the general for his great kindness, and we will swear to kill the enemy to serve the court." Zhang Yunshen and others said together.

Good guys, exactly like on TV.

Zhang Wei, who was behind the scenes, looked at the generals standing below and thought in his heart. However, the slight difference from TV is that the clothes on these generals of the Tang Dynasty are not so glamorous. After all, after long-term field work, most of the clothes and armor on the body look dirty.

It's normal to be dirty, it's not normal to be dirty, and when you really open the battle, your clothes and armor will not only be dirty but also bloody.

Then, Zhang Zhifang began to talk about his offensive ideas, "Everyone, I discussed the strategy of this crusade against Shanxi with General Zhang last night, and now I will discuss with you in the lobby the strategy of this crusade against Shanxi. ”

Overnight, people even discussed the strategy of the battle? The generals of Liaodong arched their hands and said: "I would like to hear the details." ”

Zhang Zhifang continued: "In this attack on Shanxi, Ben decided to flank the enemy from the east and west, on the one hand, Ben General personally led 10,000 soldiers and horses, marched from the Daling River all the way to the west, and successively eliminated the Yuan Qi Zhe Division, the Du Ji Division, the Ao Lost Division, and so on. The other department was personally appointed by the Jiedu envoy to lead the general to lead the troops directly from Youzhou to insert into the Laoha River, and intercept the two divisions of Shanxi's Ahui Department and the Division and the Division to prevent the enemy from reinforcing each other. What do you think? ”

It's not much, but it's all that needs to be said.

After listening to Zhang Zhifang's arrangement, the Liaodong general thought for a while and said: "The deputy envoy is arranging his troops in this way, it seems that he is preparing to fight to the death with Shanxi, so good, it can completely cut off the connection between the five departments of Shanxi, and it can also reduce the pressure on our army." The end will think it is possible. ”
