Chapter 2 (Part 2)
Chapter 2 is a great deal
"Are you really sure those two guys will come to the rescue in time? What if those two princes hate you for not knowing how to lift and do not move? Let's just use these 5,000 men and horses, and the two strong attacks will be consumed....... "Niutou Mountain, Wang Ermao's arrangement of Cheng Mingzhen,. com pulled the team to Niutou Mountain to camp, it was completely Cheng Mingzhen's impromptu idea, and he did not discuss it with anyone in advance, including his brother in life and death.
"King Qin is a masterpiece of the world. The prince is also a hero! I don't believe that they will put the battle of wills ahead of state affairs! Cheng Mingzhen smiled, and his words were very confident. Besides, the brothers all ate green forest rice back then, and fighting on the plains may not be Wei Chi Jingde's opponent. Once he retreats to the mountains, the initiative may not be his! ”
"You're going to keep retreating into the mountains!" Wang Ermao was taken aback and asked with a glare.
"Of course, but not now. Let's give Wei Chi Jingde a surprise, after picking up the cheap, run away immediately! Cheng Mingzhen smiled and responded in a low voice.
Since two years ago, he used the method of rice chip deduction to persuade Prince Jiancheng to give up his eager plan to win and continue to implement the steady and steady strategy formulated by Pei Lian. His eyes never left the Taiyuan front. In the past two years, every battle between the Tang army and Liu Wu and Zhou's army has been clearly understood through the Di newspaper and various channels. The reason why he dared to pull the brothers of the Zhaozhou battalion to Niutou Mountain this time and stay away from the main force was also based on understanding the enemy. It can be said that Liu Wuzhou, Wei Chi Jingde and others did not understand the reality of the Zhaozhou battalion, but he himself had a clear understanding of Liu Wuzhou's subordinates, including Wei Chi Jingde's own character and military habits.
Cheng Mingzhen looked at it from the perspective of a bystander, all the battles between Liu Wuzhou's army and the Tang army, except for the vicious battle in which Song Jingang lightly advanced and was defeated and died, the rest of the battle, neither the enemy nor the enemy made much mistakes. The reason why Liu Wu and Zhou's army were forced to retreat was not because they lost on the battlefield, but because the national strength was too different from that of the Tang Dynasty. After a long period of attrition, this army has now run out of oil, and it is difficult to maintain the original sharpness.
And the reason why Liu Wu Zhou's army has not been destroyed until now is entirely because of the personal role of Wei Chi Jingde. This son is excellent in martial arts, has a keen sense of the battlefield, and has turned the tide many times at critical times. But this son also has a very big weakness, that is, he is arrogant, he believes too much in his own ability, and he can't form an effective cooperation with his colleagues. If this was used to lure him out of Fenyang City to trap him, the last log that supported Liu Wu Zhou's army would be gone, and the building would fall in a moment.
In the previous battlefield, the prince's soldiers and horses were a point, and the Qin king's soldiers and horses were a point, forcing Liu Wuzhou to support him hard, and he could barely reach a balance. But after the Yuzhou battalion set up the battlefield alone, the fourth point appeared. If the other party wants to end the current predicament, he can only think of a way from the fourth point.
This is a kind of gamble, betting that Liu Wu and Zhou Junchen are not willing to fail. If the bet wins, the whole situation suddenly becomes clear. If the situation is unfavorable, the Zhaozhou battalion will retreat in great strides, and whether to chase or not is still a dilemma for Liu Wu and Zhoujun.
It's just that this plan is too risky. Not only tactically, but also outside the battlefield, which can lead to another crisis. Wang Ermao keenly saw the key clearly, frowned, and continued to remind: "As a district governor, let the two armies of the prince and the king of Qin revolve around you, even if you win this battle, I am afraid that you will have a reputation for underestimating the enemy." ”
"It doesn't hurt to do that!" Cheng Mingzhen glanced at him and asked with a smile, "Isn't it?" ”
"You guy!" Wang Ermao pushed him and scolded him angrily. Cheng Mingzhen has somewhat figured out the ghost idea he played in private, and he is cunning enough, and he is indeed worthy of his name as the nine-headed Jiao back then.
"There is no way to do it, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will urge it!" Cheng Mingzhen smiled slyly, somewhat helpless in his eyes.
Although he has become a high-ranking official of the Tang Dynasty, his past experience has left a deep imprint on the two brothers. Because the troops were weak for a long time, they did not hesitate to take risks and strange things when marching and fighting, and because they had experienced too much betrayal and betrayal, the two of them were cautious and cautious everywhere when dealing with people, preferring to rise slower and have less wealth than to get involved in meaningless disputes.
Most of the brothers who remained under the banner of the Zhaozhou camp had a similar mentality to Cheng Mingzhen himself. Especially after the cat hidden in the shadow of the "great relocation" in Wei County was revealed, everyone secretly scolded the prince for being despicable, and had a more appropriate understanding of the risks in the court. Many see the majestic sea. Wu Tianxi and others made great achievements, and the blood veins of the whole body were burned hot, and their mood instantly cooled, and they slowly began to think about which life was more suitable for them.
But the battalion could not remain out of the whirlpool of power struggles. In the past two years, the crown prince is not the only one who has tried to bring him under his command. King Qin, King Qi, and even some big names in the court and the opposition also continued to show favor to Cheng Mingzhen, the head of the family, through various ways, hoping that the two sides would reach some kind of tacit understanding in private. In the short term, Cheng Mingzhen can still find some lame excuses to shirk, and those people don't dare to do anything to him. But as time goes by, it will inevitably offend more and more people.
"Self-defilement is not necessarily a good solution. No one is stupid and won't be fooled for too long by some little tricks! After thinking silently for a moment, Wang Ermao said in a low voice. If there is really no way, I would rather advance and retreat with King Qin! ”
"Indeed, in comparison, no matter what level of the country, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is far inferior to King Qin!" Nodding, Cheng Mingzhen partially agreed with Wang Ermao's words, "But King Qin is acting too ruthlessly, you and I are serving his disciples at this time, I'm afraid it will be an outcast in the future!" ”
"That's right!" Wang Ermao smiled a little stupidly. "King Qin's troops are strong and strong, with Qin Shubao, Luo Shixin, Cheng Zhijie and others, we small fish and shrimp will never be taken too seriously! But if you continue to delay, it will be a trouble in the end. After all, you and I can't do Xu Maogong's step, and I can bring seven counties and millions of people to Datang! ”
"So I want to take this opportunity to give Your Majesty a generous gift directly!" Cheng Mingzhen smiled, his face full of exhaustion and helplessness.
"Your Majesty......?" Wang Ermao's brows twisted into a pimple, and it took a long time to understand what Cheng Mingzhen was referring to. "Do you mean that Your Majesty will notice us, or will Your Majesty be considerate of our difficulties? Recently, I heard that Your Majesty is ......."
"It's better not to take hearsay seriously!" Cheng Mingzhen looked around vigilantly, and quickly interrupted Wang Ermao's words. "I think the people who spread the rumors have ulterior motives. If Your Majesty didn't even have the slightest decisiveness, there would be no current Datang! ”
"That's right!" Wang Ermao shrugged, then sighed in a low voice. "Who knows where the rumors came from. When the Li family raised troops in Taiyuan, King Qin was only twenty years old?! When we were two twenty years old, we didn't have that much ability! ”
Cheng Mingzhen smiled knowingly and didn't answer Wang Ermao's words. He had vaguely heard some of the rumors mentioned by the other party today. According to the private relays of the low-level soldiers, when the Li family was preparing to raise troops on the "Qingjun side", the current Tang Dynasty emperor, Li Yuan, the head of the family back then, was very hesitant in his heart. I almost missed the opportunity and fell short. And the crown prince Jiancheng is also a guy who has no opinions, and he can't provide any help to Li Yuan at all. Thanks to Li Shimin, the king of Qin, seeing the chaos in the world and the displacement of the people, he made a generous statement from the three perspectives of righteousness, the situation and the mandate of heaven, and finally prompted Li Yuan to make up his mind, and personally promised the king of Qin, "If you turn your family into a country this time, you will take the country and the society with you." If you unfortunately fail halfway, the whole family will go to the national disaster together! ”
King Qin's martial arts are strong, his mind is keen, his bearing is magnificent, and he has the courage to take responsibility in case of trouble, and his demeanor is indeed heartbreaking. But a young man who is just in his early twenties can be more far-sighted than Li Yuan, who has been in the officialdom all his life and has countless relatives and friends, and has a greater role in determining the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. This is also another reason why he is unwilling to accept King Qin's wooing, in his eyes, a person who is willing to slander even his father for the sake of the great cause is not worthy of his life in any case.
In addition, the way the imperial court dealt with his own actions in the process of the "great relocation" also made him admire Li Yuan very much. Obviously, it was Li Yuan's impulsive death after hearing about the defeat of the Duke of Luoyang. But after Jue Na was in turmoil, Li Yuan did not make a mistake to the end and insisted on the relocation plan. There is no sin against those who violate the law for the sake of the emperor's face. Instead, he pushed the boat along the river, gave a lot of benefits to the people who were forcibly relocated to Hedong, and admitted his own mistakes in disguise by adding officials to those who violated the yang and yin. The ability and open-mindedness shown in this is really amazing.
"What if Wei Chi Jingde refuses to be? Or is he worried that Liu Wuzhou will not be able to defend Fenyang independently, and he will take the initiative to give up this tempting opportunity? After thinking for a moment, Wang Ermao no longer wasted his energy on which forces the Zhaozhou camp would fall to, and focused his attention on the battle in front of him.
"Even if the turtle can't shrink, they can't hold Fenyang. Instead of sitting back and waiting, let's give it a go! Cheng Mingzhen shook his head lightly, figuring out his opponent with the mentality of getting along with each other, "This is their only chance to turn the tables, I guess Wei Chi Jingde will give it a try anyway." If he really can't shrink back, then it's just right, I simply bypassed Fenyang and pounced directly on Ma Yi. Even if he doesn't know me anymore, I've heard a little bit about what our old business did! ”
