The shot is from the sixth product, Zhang Wei is happy in his heart!

I was so excited.

Li Shangyin, Li Shangyin, your brother has lived in vain for decades, follow this today and follow that tomorrow, what can you do in the end? It's not like being a small nine-grade petty official as small as sesame.

Hey--, it's a fool. Look at me, Zhang Wei is a military attache from the sixth rank as soon as he makes a move.

Zhang Wei secretly calculated in his heart, if Qipin is the county governor, this is also a prefecture-level deputy position from Liupin anyway, which is equivalent to the current deputy mayor level, and if it is placed in the army, it is also a deputy division-level leader.

Oh, yes, yes, yes, in Zhang Wei's imagination, the highest position among all the relatives of the old Zhang family he can know is the executive deputy director of a county land bureau, at most a regular section level, and he just enjoys the treatment of a regular department.

Because according to the convention, the director of the county is the section level, and the executive deputy director should also be the deputy section level, but because he has been in office for a long time and is old, the organization takes into account the actual situation of the individual, and gives him the treatment of a regular section level.

Look at me again, as soon as Zhang Wei came to Datang, he was a deputy municipal level, enough, enough.

From a historical point of view, I, Zhang Wei, can have this level, which is already the highest level among the ancestors of the old Zhang family for several generations; Looking at the Datang society, I, Zhang Wei, am a sixth-grade official as soon as I make a move, which is not low, anyway, it is much stronger than Li Shangyin's salt and iron pusher from the ninth grade.

Although in the eyes of Zhang Zhifang and Shi Xiong, it is too small to give a Guoyi Lieutenant from the sixth rank with Zhang Wei's ability, but for Zhang Wei himself, he is already very satisfied to be able to get such a high-ranking official as soon as he debuts. Zhang Zhongwu is willing to give such a high official to himself, what else can I Zhang Wei say? Only by trying his best to kill the enemy can he repay Zhang Zhongwu and Zhang Zhifang's trust in him.

"General Shi, the envoy of Jiedu has already said that the enemy of Shanxi is still burning and looting in my Youzhou territory, let me assist you in exterminating the Shanxi thieves. I don't think it's too late, so I will lead my troops to the west to pursue the enemy, end the enemy's threat to my Datang as soon as possible, and return the people to a stable living environment. After all, he had just become an official of the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Wei couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and said to Shi Xiong excitedly.

After hearing this, Shi Xiong stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Zhang Duwei has just become an official of the Tang Dynasty, and he is eager to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, it seems that you are eager to make meritorious contributions!" ”

A sentence was poked in his heart, Zhang Wei smiled embarrassedly: "General Shi made fun of it, Zhang Wei just came to the army, and the Jiedu envoy gave Zhang a six-grade official, compared to those soldiers who have been marching and fighting all year round, I am already very lucky." Can you not go into battle to kill the enemy, make meritorious contributions, and repay the grace of the envoys? ”

This is indeed Zhang Wei's heart.

Because he has already seen Wen Tingyun struggle for fame for most of his life, he is still a student waiting for the exam, his beard is all gone, and he has not yet achieved fame. I have seen Li Shangyin worry for most of his life for a small official like a sesame mung bean.

Now that he can be said to have not made an inch, Zhang Zhongwu gave himself a military attache from the sixth grade, what else is not satisfied?

Although Zhang Wei is ambitious, he is still a conscious person, and he knows the truth of no merit.

"Brother can think like this, I am very happy for my brother, compared to those who know that you are an official before you have made an inch, you are already very good." Then Shi Xiong said to Zhang Wei: "But then again, you can't be compared with those old men who know how to fight, you know poetry and writing, you have wisdom, compared to those rough people, I don't know how much stronger, you definitely have the ability to be a good Guoyi captain." Shi Xiong encouraged Zhang Wei.

"General Shi, rest assured, as long as I am here, I will definitely be able to defeat Shanxi and return peace to Youzhou." Zhang Wei said confidently to Shi Xiong.

"Go, I'm sure you have what it takes." Shi Xiong took Zhang Wei out of the Jiedu Envoy's mansion.

With 15,000 soldiers and horses from Youzhou in the Tang Dynasty, Shi Xiong and Zhang Wei went all the way to the west.

Although Zhang Wei at this time was only a Guoyi lieutenant from Liupin, his actual authority was quite comparable to that of the deputy general of this expedition, assisting the main general Shi Xiong to pursue and suppress the enemy in Shanxi.

Although according to the rank, Zhang Wei will definitely not be allowed to serve as the deputy general of this expedition, but who will let the family be hand-picked by the Jiedu envoy? Who makes the level of ability of the family high?

This is as if the commander-in-chief of a project today is the number one commander in the city, but the deputy commander-in-chief is the director of a certain department. The superiors can let this person take on such a heavy responsibility, and there must be special considerations for someone's family.

Now the army is already on the way to Hengzhou.

"Captain Zhang, you said that this Shanxi army is cavalry, and almost all of our Datang army is infantry, even if we know where the enemy is slaughtering the people, we can't catch up!" Along the way, this is what Shi Xiong worries about the most.

Not only Shi Xiong has such thoughts, but even Zhang Wei himself can't think about this practical problem.

Shanxi's army is all cavalry, and the emphasis is on fast speed and strong lethality, although before setting off, Zhang Zhongwu has ordered all states and counties to report Shanxi's situation to Shixiong's army, but even if he knows, he can't catch up! Along the way, Zhang Wei has also been thinking about this problem, and now he basically has ideas.

"What the general said is that it is true that the infantry cannot catch up with the cavalry, but what should we do to pursue the enemy? You can still destroy the enemy without chasing. Zhang Wei said.

Shi Xiong said this, "You said that we can destroy the Shanxi army without pursuit, how is this possible?" ”

Shi Xiong looked Zhang Wei up and down, there is nothing outstanding about this young man in front of him, he has neither the ability to fight cattle across the mountains, nor the level of soaring clouds and fog, let alone the immortal skills of plucking his hair into soldiers and blowing into immortals, why do you want to say such big words?

"Brother, I know your ability, but what I want to remind you is that this is a plain area north of the big river, not Qilaotu Mountain, nor Nurur Tiger Mountain, the Shanxi cavalry came here, like a tiger entering the mountain, Jiaolong entered the water, it can be said that they came and went without a trace, and they have no fixed residence, why should they destroy the Shanxi cavalry if they don't pursue us?" Shi Xiong knew the role that Zhang Wei played in eliminating the Yuan Qi Folding Department and subduing the Du Ji Department, and he also knew that he had a lot of ghost ideas, but that was already in the past, and the skills in the mountains might not be applicable on the plains.

He actually wanted to warn Zhang Wei that it was okay to brag, but once the cow blew it, he would also be hurt.

Zhang Wei smiled faintly after hearing this: "General Shi, I didn't brag, I've been thinking about this problem all the way, and now I basically have ideas." ”

Got an idea?

Shi Xiong looked at Zhang Wei happily when he heard this, "I know that your brother is capable, what do you think about the elimination of Shanxi, I will listen to it for my brother." ”

Good guy, it's so fast!

Zhang Wei looked at Shi Xiong with a strange smile, and Shi Xiong himself smiled embarrassedly.

"Brother Zhang Wei, I know you are capable, let's talk about it, how will you destroy the enemy of Shanxi?" Shi Xiong said to Zhang Wei with a smile on his face.

"General Shi, although it is said that the Shanxi cavalry has disappeared without a trace on the plains, they still have to sleep and rest at night. Did the general ever think that the Shanxi cavalry would rest there at night? Zhang Wei asked.

Have a rest?

That's right, your Shanxi enemy is not a perpetual motion machine, with inexhaustible energy and power, no matter how crazy your Shanxi cavalry is during the day, you always have to rest at night, so where will the Shanxi enemy rest at night?

Shi Xiong thought for a moment and said, "Where can they rest, they will definitely choose a place to rest away from the city, if it is too close to the city, they will also worry that our army will find them and attack them while they are unprepared." ”

"Yes, what the general said is very right, don't look at these Shanxi people are crazy at the moment, in fact, their hearts are also very panicked, and they are also very desolate, after all, their homes have been burned down by our army, homeless, no place to return, the current Shanxi people are no different from stray wild dogs." Zhang Wei said.

"Yes, brother, you are right, in my opinion, the current mountain taunt enemy is actually not much different from a wild dog, wandering all the way, and there is no fixed place to live. It's crazy on the surface, but in fact, there is no confidence in the heart. Shi Xiong followed.

"In this case, they actually don't have much courage to compete with our Tang army, so the place they can choose to hide will definitely not be in front of the city, but choose a mountainous area far away from the city or other places that are conducive to hiding." Then Zhang Wei asked Shi Xiong, "General, just imagine, in the land of Hengzhou, where will the Shanxi people hide?" ”

Where will the Shanxi people hide in Hengzhou?

Hengzhou is today's Datong, located between the mountains, east of Yanshan, southeast of Taihang Mountain not far away, west of Luliang Mountain, north is Yin Mountain. Imagine that in such a place surrounded by mountains, the Shanxi people who killed all the way from the east would hide in that mountain?

Shi Xiong thought for a while and said to Zhang Wei: "There are mountains on almost all sides of Hengzhou, and I can't think of where the enemy will hide; If I had to say it, the most likely hiding place for the Shanxi people should be Yanshan or Taihang Mountain. ”

"Why?" Zhang Wei asked.

"Because Yanshan or Taihang is right between Youzhou and Hengzhou, so that the Shanxi people can attack Hengzhou to the west, and they can attack Youzhou to the east. What do you think? Shi Xiong spoke his mind.

Taihang Mountain or Yan Mountain?

These two mountains are actually two relatively famous mountain ranges across North China, and the gap between the two mountains lies in the north of Yanshan and the south of Taihang, and Hengzhou is just at the junction of the two mountains.

Will the enemy hide here?

Zhang Wei thought for a while and said, "What General Shi said makes sense, but I don't think so. ”

Oh?

Don't you think so?

Shi Xiong looked at Zhang Wei, "According to what you said, the Shanxi people will not hide in Yanshan or Taihang." So what do you think the enemy will hide in that mountain? ”

"Yin Mountain." Zhang Wei spoke his mind.
