Chapter 374: If there is no gentleman, there will be no place to die

"Since we want to join forces with Zhang Di, we can't be trapped in our current territory, we have to go out, and the next step is to take Shexian County. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Tian Hu stood up, and the attendant next to him hurriedly took a scroll from the side, and the scroll slowly opened, but it was a map of fifty-six counties in five states, and there was a map on the side, which was a map of Hebei, Shexian County, Wu'an and other states and counties, and the maps of counties and counties appeared on it, and the deployment of soldiers, horses, grains and grass in the military state was clearly marked on it, which showed that Tian Hu was also eyeing Hebei.

"This is the matter of Zhaode Mansion, send troops from Zhaode Mansion, but you can reach Shexian County in two or three days, but the army captures Shexian County, and Li Jing's army attacks Zhaode Mansion, then it is a little bad." Wu Li said with some concern.

"You can transfer the second king to lead 50,000 troops to support Zhaode Mansion. In this way, Prime Minister Zuo can rest assured and boldly occupy Shexian County, and Zhang Di will become a horn to block Li Jing. Niu Wenzhong thought for a while and said. The two kings in his mouth refer to Tian Bao, who is now leading 60,000 troops to garrison Fenyang Mansion.

"Fenyang Mansion itself only has 60,000 troops, and the army is 50,000, which means that it is empty." Tian Hu hesitated a little and said, "If the Zhe family comes from the north, what will it be?" ”

"Is it still a broken family that lost the Western Army?" Fang Xuedu laughed and said: "I have been entrenched in Zhou County until now, and I have not seen the Taiyuan army coming from the north, Lao Chen heard that the Taiyuan army is rotten, although it is known as a fortress to defend the north, but these years and the Great Liao do not invade each other, the 50,000 border army is actually only 30,000 people, and most of them are old and weak, and the defense is still difficult, let alone attack." Obviously, he, as a lieutenant, has long had reliable information about Taiyuan.

"If that's the case, after killing Li Jing, let Zhang Di attack the prefecture and county, and I'll go and capture Taiyuan." Tian Hu's eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Even the border army is like this, it can be seen how the imperial court has decayed, this is just our opportunity, such a picturesque country, it should fall into my hands." ”

"Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king." Everyone also seemed to see Tian Hu's future, and they all bowed down to the ground and shouted long live.

"Haha, in that case, let the second brother lead 50,000 troops into Zhaode Mansion and take over from Prime Minister Zuo to attack Shexian." Tian Hu is like a stream, what he is good at is conquering the battlefield and charging into battle, he is really not good at this kind of calculating people.

Tian Hu's side gave an order, the whole land of Hebei was surging, and Liang Zhongshu of the Daimyo Mansion did not dare to slack off after Tian Hu's army attacked Shexian County, on the one hand, he defended the Daimyo's Mansion with heavy troops, and on the other hand, he ordered people to quickly transmit Tian Hu's movements to Bianjing. On the one hand, he had to deal with the soldiers and horses of Zhang Di's Taihang Nineteen Villages, and on the other hand, he had to guard against Tian Hu's army.

And the secret guard of the Daimyo's Mansion also transmitted the situation in Hebei to Li Jing, Li Jing's 100,000 army was divided into five armies, stretching horizontally for hundreds of miles, crisscrossing Jingdong Road and Hebei East Road, the army was invincible, and I didn't know how many thieves were exterminated, and I could receive good news almost every day, or exterminate hundreds or dozens of thieves. The prestige of the Northern Expeditionary Army was great on both roads, and some thieves fled one after another, where did they dare to be the enemy of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Although the battle is very small, but for the Northern Army, it has played a role in training, at least let those soldiers feel the atmosphere and tension of the battle, the composition of the Northern Army is very complicated, there are the forbidden army of the imperial court, the local Xiang Army, Li Jing recruited the young strong, and there are many Liangshan thieves, but the real blood is very few, the forbidden army is the old man, the Xiang army is negligent in training, the young and strong are even more so, although the thieves kill more, but can not form an effective combat effectiveness, after a long time of marching and fighting, Li Jing believed that when the daimyo arrived, the army would definitely look different.

"General, General Gao Chong destroyed another thief's den, killed the thief leader, and harvested 300 pieces of money, two war horses, and 30 stones of grain and grass." Zhu Wu walked into the big tent, but saw Li Jing holding a butter candle in his hand, looking at the map, the map indicated Hebei East Road, Hebei West Road and Hedong Road, this map is a military secret, and it can only be obtained in the Taiwei Mansion, Li Jing can only get these when he conquests Tian Hu.

"More than 100 bandits are nothing." Li Jing turned around and sighed: "But this is also a matter of no choice, the formation of the army is too hasty, there are all kinds of forces, if you want to form a strong army, it must take two years." The imperial court didn't give us much time. ”

"Yes! If you form cavalry, it will take more time. Zhu Wu glanced at the map, he knew that what Li Jing was worried about was definitely not the army's business, and he hesitated for a while and said, "The general is worried about the situation in Hebei. The subordinates heard that the people from the nineteen villages of Taihang had already left the mountain. ”

"Yes, Zhang Di led 100,000 troops to attack Zhaozhou, and Zhaozhou fell, and Liang Zhongshu is now leading soldiers and horses to defend the Daimyo's Mansion!" Li Jing said disdainfully: "In the troubled times, all kinds of characters came out, and they directly led hundreds of thousands of troops, smashed Huanglong, directly attacked Weisheng Prefecture, destroyed Tian Hu, and destroyed Zhang Di by the way." ”

"If the general is like this, I'm afraid death is not far away." Zhu Wu was about to speak, but he saw a cold snort from outside, and saw Zhao Ding striding in.

"Oh, could it be that Lord Zhao also knows military strategy?" Li Jing smiled and pointed to the side, let the two sit down, and said, "This is the best way to find the best way to directly attack his vital point, so that we can save more time and strive to pacify Tian Hu in a few months." ”

"It is naturally good for the general to be able to win the battle, but the general forgot one thing, the general not only needs to deal with Tian Hu, but also to guard against Tian Hu attacking the imperial court, before Tong Guan led the army to sit in the land of Hehuang, even if it is Guanzhong, it is also stationed with heavy troops, but now it is different, most of the western army has gathered in Beijing, and the army led by Tong Guan is about to march south, whether it is the land of Hehuang, or Guanzhong or even Luoyang, there are not many defensive soldiers and horses, and the general will put the soldiers and horses on the first line of Hebei, But Tian Hu can take the opportunity to lead the army, cross the Yellow River, attack Luoyang, conquer the land of Henan, and threaten Gyeonggi. Can you wait until the general captures Wasion State? Zhao Ding pointed to Gaizhou and said: "General, as long as the enemy crosses the river from Zezhou, the imperial court will be furious, and those ministers in the court will definitely attack the generals." ”

After Li Jing heard this, his face changed, and he couldn't help but stand up, arched his hand and said, "If it weren't for Mr. Reminder, Li Jing would probably have died without a place to be buried." Zhao Ding said that Li Jing also took into account, but the only thing that was not taken into account was the seriousness of the matter, if Luoyang fell, Li Jing's political enemies in the court would rise up and attack it.

Li Jing only thought about how to defeat Tian Hu from a military perspective, but did not consider it from a political perspective, which is where Li Jing's immaturity lies. Zhao Dingjun is not good, but he is immersed in officialdom, and his political wisdom far surpasses that of Li Jing, even Gongsun Sheng and Zhu Wu cannot be compared. (To be continued.) )
