Chapter 213 looks at the clouds
Recently, on the ground in Shandong, the people of Liangshan fought with Dongping, Qingzhou and the imperial court. Although Wang Lun restrained his subordinates, the defeated army of the imperial court harassed the people of Shandong. Since the beginning of winter, many desperate people have defected to Liangshan.
After the Dongchang Mansion and Qingzhou Mansion were laid, Liangshan's grain and goods were greatly replenished. In addition to the rewards for the meritorious and the pensions for the soldiers who died in battle, the remaining materials were still piled up in the granary treasury.
At the same time, Liangshan had the addition of the Dongchang Mansion and the Huyan River East Army, and the combat power increased by one percent. You must know that the people and horses of Dongchang Mansion are all elites trained by Zhang Qing, and the Hedong Army is all soldiers of a hundred battles.
And in the big war in the past two months, the leaders of Liangshan have increased by several people. For example, the purple-haired Bohuang Fuduan was already on the mountain at this time, Zhang Qing, Gong Wang, Ding Desun, the three heroes of Dongchang Mansion, Wei Dingguo, Shan Tinggui, the two generals of water and fire, and Hu Yanzhuo and his son, Han Tao and Peng Qi.
Wang Lun concluded that after this great defeat, the imperial court would not raise an army to fight in the short term. And with the addition of this group of imperial court generals, his strength has increased greatly, and he has also used it properly.
Considering that Zhang Qing and Hu Yanzhuo would inevitably not be enemies of the imperial court now, Wang Lun planned to arrange these people on another front.
Now there are sixty or seventy leaders in Liangshan, and most of them are reckless. Now that Wang Lun opened the council hall again, he did not summon all the leaders, but chose to do so.
There are military advisors Zhu Wu, Li Zhu, Xiao Jiasui, scribe Lu Jiang, Sun Jing, and Chen Wenzhao, the prefect of Dongchang Prefecture.
Then there are Wang Jin, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Hu Yanzhuo, Zhang Qing, as well as Li Jun and Zhang Shun of the Water Army, and Deng Fei who came back from Yinmachuan.
At this time, a large map was already hung on the wall of the Justice Hall. The reason why it is said to be super large is because it includes not only the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, but also Liaodong, Korea, Japan, Western Xia, Western Regions, Siberia, and South Asia.
Of course, these are Wang Lun's private goods.
Among these people, not to mention Zhang Shun and Deng Fei, who don't know a few big characters, even the well-informed Xiao Jiasui, and Zhu Wu, who is very wise, are also very unfamiliar with this map.
A few knowledgeable people can also vaguely see the geographical location of some foreign races.
Wang Lun knew everyone's doubts, and sighed: In the past thousand years, there have been many battles, and the flesh and bones of our Han people have smeared these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains with splendor. Meng Tian built the Great Wall, and the Hu people did not dare to go south to herd horses; Wei Qing established the dignity of the Han Dynasty, Huo Quai, sealed the wolf Juxu, and the great emperor, carved the axe and chisel the two words of my Han people. Only after the Three Kingdoms, the Han people are increasingly infighting, the great country is exposed under the iron hooves of the Hu people, since the two Jin Dynasty, the most is the time when the north and the south are established, the Hu people take my Han people as two-legged sheep, life and death are like goods.
When he said these words, he held his breath and condensed, and Lu Zhishen was panting.
Wu Song was stunned when he heard this, blinked and asked, "Two-legged sheep?" It's really hateful, but I haven't heard of it, but what the storyteller said, the Hu people really have no humanity, and they treat the Han people as human beings.
Wang Lun was ashamed, and he called the two-legged sheep, and he vaguely remembered that it was only between the two songs.
At the moment, he pointed to the map and said: The grassland, there is the Liao country in the south, and the Jin country has been established in the north. The whole country of Jin is united, and there is more Chief Hu who is brave and strategic. It is the declining Xishan Liao country, but the internal strife is endless, and the external troubles are not stopped. Even so, Hu Ren's personality is uncertain, if the Zhu Wu brothers want to go, do they have a charter?
Zhu Wu was very surprised, he was always self-defeating, that is, when the heroes of Liangshan Boli were only troubled by the collection of officials and soldiers, he had led the heroes of Shaohuashan to attack the mansion and plunder the state, and he had never treated people with a green eye in his life.
Although Wang Lun and Zhu Wu, Li Zhu, and Xiao Jiasui have all said these words, Zhu Wu can see that Wang Lun is coming with a real sword this time.
In the past few days, Deng Fei brought some grassland news to him, knowing the situation on the grassland, Zhu Wu pointed to the picture at the moment, and said: Brother and look at the current Jurchen, since the government and the fifth year to take Ning as the emperor, in September of the same year, take the Huanglong Mansion. Now the Jurchens, although their strength is not as good as that of the Liao State, their tiger vision is clear. On the other hand, the Liao State, although it has been fighting with the imperial court for many years, it really can't take a step beyond the secluded clouds and rivers, but the vitality is gone, and the dragon is just a dragon. If the younger brother goes to the grassland, he first befriends the Jurchen with heavy money, and Xu says that he will destroy Liao, and then he will go to the Liao country and befriend the nobles with heavy money. Now the sixteen states of Youyun, it seems that under the control of the Liao State, it is actually a borderless land, the elder brother and others take it idlely, feed them with horses, hoard them with grain and grass, and make friends with the Three Kingdoms to become their own forces, and wait for the world to be in chaos, there is Youyun Army in the north to go south and go north, and Liangshan Bo in the south is a horn, and the world can be determined!
Hu Yanzhuo listened to Zhu Wu's words, and his heart was hot. Since Emperor Taizu, the Great Song Dynasty has been thinking about recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and he doesn't want Liangshan to be like this!
Zhang Qing didn't want Wang Lun to have such foresight, so he listened carefully.
Li Zhu also laughed and said: You don't need to worry about the heavy money, there is a little bit of the cottage here, just take the flowers.
Wang Lun frowned, he didn't want to accept it, but he was also thrilled that the sixteen states of Youyun were the best horse breeding areas, not to mention their location advantages, so he couldn't push it. If you want to take the clouds, you must first make friends with all the forces.
And Wang Lun also looked at a place on the map, and sure enough, Xiongzhou was clearly marked.
Xiongzhou, is not far from Hebei West Road on Hebei East Road, there is the Ansu Army on the left, the Baoding Army on the right, the south is converted, and the difficulty is the Shun'an Army, the three armies are surrounded by arches, with the conversion as the belly and back, the army of hoarding grain and grass, is the forefront of the anti-Liao resistance.
Hebei East Road, which is the forefront of the Great Song Dynasty, faces the sea in the east, Hebei West Road in the west, Jingdong Road in the south, and Nanjing Mansion of the Liao people in the north. Once the Hebei East Road was lost, the Liao soldiers could drive straight south to the Central Plains, take the two Louis of Jingdong, sweep the north bank of the Yellow River and besiege the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.
And if he occupies Xiongzhou, he can also surround Henan and Hebei with Liangshan.
The trip to the clouds has already been planned! Wang Lun knew that if he didn't take the clouds, he would have to take the land of the Hetao, and if not, the cavalry would not be able to be formed. The land of the Hetao is the area where the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty will never let go, that is, the Liangshan army now has more than 100,000 soldiers, and it is easy to obtain.
Youyun is different, although the Liao people want to take, but the Song people do not let go, now the two have been fighting for more than a hundred years, turning the good land of raising horses into a bitter cold and no one's land, if it is taken by itself, there can be tens of thousands of troops for a time, just like the original history of Guo Yaoshi, the Song people were afraid that he voted for the Liao State, and the Liao people were afraid that he would vote for the Song Court, and he was impartial and just strengthened himself.
If Youyun succeeds, there are tens of millions of good horses produced continuously, with the advantage of close proximity to the sea, it is not difficult to establish a water army, just wait for the Jin people to rise south, at the beginning of the war, there are dark clouds in the dark have their own unthinkable benefits, the Ming Liangshanbo army from the Central Plains, to the east of the two roads of geography can change hands, at that time sitting on the green Yanxu, the tiger looks at the south of the Yangtze River and shoots the world in the west, and the Central Plains also has a foundation.
If you can't take the clouds, you can't have war horses, then the infantry army is alone in the world, just like in modern warfare, there is no air strike force, and there can be no mobile and fast army in a short time, but I am afraid that in the face of the Liao, Jin, and even scattered Mongols, there is not much chance of victory.
If the Jin people rise, the Liao people will go south and west, and Shengsheng will give up this excellent horse farm.
Then there are Liangshanbo and even Jingdong two roads, rich in products and strong folk customs, if you take it, then it is more than enough to defend Qingyanxu, but also to waste a lot of living forces, Youyun borders with this place, if you take this place, then Youyun has logistical support, and there are many forces only tossing energy in Shandong.
Take the sixteen states of Youyun, stabilize the three mountains and five mountains of Liangshan, look at the south of the Yangtze River and coerce the imperial court, waiting for the opportunity to transfer the Youyun troops into the land of Bashu, and the general trend of the world can fall into the hands of Wang Lun.
The sixteen states of Youyun must be taken!
Thinking of this, Wang Lun stood up and said secretly.
Glancing at Li Zhu, Wang Lun asked: Mr. Jin Jian also said, if the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun are taken, it will be stronger than being alone in Liangshanbo, how about it?
Li Zhu looked at it contemplatively, saw Wang Lun's calm face, and secretly said for a moment: Liangshanbo can raise a foot army, and it is enough to conquer Shandong, but it is not possible to take the world. The sixteen states of Youyun have been a good land for raising horses in ancient times, and if you take it, 100,000 iron horsemen can easily raise it.
Xiao Jiasui and Sun Jing were shocked when they heard this, but it turned out that Wang Lun's brother had such grand ambitions. And later Zhang Qing and Li Jun also made waves in their hearts.
Wang Lun nodded, and said in a deep voice: Yes! I want to go north, but it's really a chestnut in the fire.
At this time, Xiao Jiasui said: The sixteen states are not narrow, although the Liangshan army is the first-class good man in the world's infantry army, it must not be able to stop the enemy in all directions, only in the sixteen states, with the terrain to induce the enemy to gather and annihilate, the party is the best!
Wang Lun sighed: The land of clouds, if we take it, it is in our hands, although Liangshanbo is small, it is a place of right and wrong, and it is really not to be careless. The brothers all have a righteous spirit, but they also have their own plans, and if there is a fire in general, if there is an infighting, it is the enemy who rejoices. There is also the Jiangnan La, which is a good student and can not rest assured.
Wang Lun said this to Hu Yanzhuo and Zhang Qing, and the two did not speak.
