Chapter 152: It takes no effort to get it
To be honest, Li Chuyun's brain circuit made the elites of the Privy Council a little unable to keep up.
What do you mean? Surprise attack on Gangneung? If you find a reason, you will fight, and even if you want to fight, shouldn't Murong Yanzhao order such a big matter?
Now Murong Yanzhao is drinking and having fun with Jingnan's envoys and talking about the friendship between the two countries, you don't even squeak at this end, and you call the Venerable Master to go directly to the base camp, isn't this a slap in the face of Murong Yanzhao, who is the commander and who is the supervisor of the army!
Sun Yue sighed secretly when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, all this is exactly the same as in history, Li Chuyun has gone completely crazy in order to compete with Murong Yanzhao.
The Great Song Dynasty fought Jingnan, do you still need a surprise attack? Just kidding, Murong Yanzhao did it himself, if the small Jiangling City could survive for three days, they Jingnan people were good at fighting, if they wanted to play hooligans, why bother to play any false ways to destroy Yu? The problem of Da Song is not that it can't be beaten, what Da Song is bad is a reason, an excuse!
Now, people have met all the requirements of the Heavenly Empire, and respectfully sent Uncle Wang out, and the boss is personally drinking with others, what kind of surprise attack is you going to play suddenly, isn't this a neurotic!
Don't think that excuses or anything don't matter, there is a question of political correctness here, you must know that there are five generations and eleven countries! Except for Meng Chang, who didn't kneel and lick desperately in the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin withdrew from the Yangtze River a few years ago, although the main reason was that he was afraid of the Khitan raiding his lair, but there was indeed a bit of a lack of reason in it, and he couldn't find an excuse.
Even the Southern Tang Dynasty still pays attention to its reputation, a small country in Jingnan, can you still use this set of undeclared war? Or is it under the premise that people are on their knees and waiting for you? What do you think of Wu Yue, Southern Han, Southern Tang and a large number of other countries and sub-section envoys who paid tribute to the Great Song Dynasty, you Great Song Dynasty is a fart when you speak!
But Li Chuyun has completely ignored these, it is said that he is a privy deputy envoy, at least a civil official, this political mind cannot be without, but he really doesn't care about it anymore, in the past few days when Sun Yue is away, he and Murong Yanzhao have hardly been quarreling for an hour, and what makes him feel extremely congested is that not to mention Murong Yanzhao's descendant Shannan Army and the Xiang Army from various states to help in the war, the two forbidden troops he personally brought with him don't take him seriously as a prison army, except for these colleagues in the Privy Council, He couldn't even find a general to support him.
After all, Murong Yanzhao's prestige in the army was too high and too high, and in the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the soldiers were already accustomed to ignoring the supervising army.
In this regard, Li Chuyun was not convinced, he couldn't understand how a semi-paralyzed coach who was about to die of illness could let those soldiers be so desperate? Don't these soldiers know who is the prime minister of the empire and who is the heart of the official?
This is not a contradiction between him and Murong Yanzhao, this is a conflict between the policy of emphasizing literature over military force in the four years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty and the habit of being a strong martial artist in the five dynasties for decades, so he is a little crazy.
He wants a hearty victory that has nothing to do with Murong Yanzhao and only belongs to him! He wanted to knock Jing Nan down directly before Murong Yanzhao reacted, and today was his chance.
He ordered that those who disobey should be court-martialed.
So, Murong Yanzhao, who was drinking with Gao Baoyin at the banquet, suddenly heard that Li Chuyun had led thousands of people to play a raid, and he was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
On the other side, Li Chuyun led a forbidden army and ran towards Jiangling City.
In fact, the timing of Li Chuyun's sneak attack is not particularly good, a distance of one hundred miles, which itself is also a safe distance reserved by Gao Jichong for himself, after all, it is the base camp of others, you have been running for a hundred miles, and you still expect people to be unaware? At best, it's just a haste to meet the battle.
Li Chuyun didn't care, and he never thought of fighting a good fight.
If anyone thinks that he is a pure literati, it is a big mistake, in fact, he is a general, and now he is a civil official is the real mistake, his father Li Zhao is the inspector of the post-Tang Dynasty, when the Later Tang Dynasty discussed Dingzhou, he met the Khitan, Li Zhao led the army to die after the break, and he was younger than his own Lao Tzu is not far behind, when he was young, he moved to Kaifeng, just in time for Yelu Deguang to go south, history said that he was the only door, shot more than a dozen people, fought for a day and a night, the rebels retreated, and their family was unscathed.
Thinking about his son who dared to rush into battle alone, is he still afraid of any hard battles? This is a big joke, and he wishes that there would be a bloody battle to decorate the glory of his life and make himself famous in history.
But again, he was disappointed.
When he came to Gangneung City, he was stupid, not how solemn the military formation antlers and copper walls of Gangneung City were.
On the contrary, what he saw was the city gate that was completely opened, and Gao Jichong, who led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military with a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, respectfully waiting outside the city!
What's the situation?
Li Chuyun couldn't help but ask Gao Jichong coldly: "What are you doing here?" ”
Gao Jichong smiled bitterly, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Hearing that the king is coming from afar, he will go out of the city to greet him, and all the gold and silver treasures in the treasury of Jiangling City are here. ”
Gao Jichong was helpless, after he heard the news of Li Chuyun's surprise attack, he was completely helpless, did he resist? It seems that he should be resisting, he still has 30,000 troops in his hands, 30,000 against Murong Yanzhao's 100,000, and he may not be able to hold out for a few days by borrowing the strength of the city wall, not to mention Li Chuyun, who came on a light horse.
But what's the point? He has been a country in Jingnan for decades, and he has never relied on swords.
He firmly believes that Zhao Kuangyin, the new emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, wants face, and all kinds of evidence show that this emperor wants face, and I am so respectful that I will go and lick the dirt on your shoes in person, do you still want to be unforgiving to me and kill them all?
Chai Rong and Li Cunmiao back then, it seems that they didn't have to be embarrassed to this point, please treat me as a fart and let me go.
Perhaps, if Zhao Kuangyin personally solicited it, he would really be able to do this, because Zhao Kuangyin was an emperor first, a politician, and then a military strategist, and he was indeed more faceless than Chai Rong and Li Cunmiao.
However, Li Chuyun didn't want any face at all.
"You just stand here, don't go anywhere, Coach Murong will arrive later, Han Chongxun Sun Yue, you two lead the people of the headquarters to take care of them here, especially the gold and silver money behind you, anyone who makes a slight change will be killed! Soldiers, follow me into the city! ”
