Many people think that Ye Hua's use of troops is very strange, he is not fast when he should be fast, and he does not chase when he should take advantage of the victory to pursue, not only does he not chase, but he also retreats to Zhuozhou, and he insists on holding on with all his might, and even restrains the generals, not allowing them to attack the Khitans in the north.

As if the great victory of the Sorghum River did not exist, everything was restored to before the war.

Ye Hua's various abnormal behaviors made him more and more introverted and used his soldiers like a god.

All the generals bowed their heads and felt that the Hou Ye was unfathomable!

But Ye Hua knew in his heart that he was simply fighting in the most stupid way, relying on strength to speak, down-to-earth, not speculative, nor tricky, that is, using the strength of the country to crush the Khitans.

If there is anything else clever, it is not caring about the gains and losses of one city and one place...... In Ye Hua's opinion, if the main Khitan force can be defeated, let alone the sixteen states of Yanyun, even outside the Great Wall, it will be allowed to run rampant in the Great Zhou.

If you can't hit the main Khitan force hard, even if you get back the lost territory, you will face endless revenge from the Khitans, so when he learned that the Khitan had increased his men and horses and wanted to fight to the death, Ye Hua simply laughed, and he decided to have another decisive battle, cripple the Khitan main force, kill it, and the goal of recovering Yanyun was not far away.

When it comes to strategic vision, Ye Hua is indeed a famous general, who made him stand on the shoulders of countless giants!

As the atmosphere of the decisive battle became stronger and stronger, Chai Rong also rushed to Zhuozhou. He came in secret and did not alarm anyone.

This time in the Northern Expedition, Chai Rong was the coach, and Ye Hua was actually his assistant.

Chai Rong is also a militant, and it is surprising that he is willing to be unknown in the rear, but he entrusts Ye Hua with the task of recovering Yanyun, which is really puzzling.

"You're more steady." Chai Rong smiled and said: "The world says that the champion Hou Yong crowns the three armies, rushes into battle to kill the enemy, and is unparalleled in the world." If you want me to say, these people are just talking nonsense, you are the stupidest at fighting! ”

"Hahaha, with clumsy ingenuity, the blunt knife is pointed directly at the core, this is the ability!" Ye Hua boasted without blushing.

Chai Rong smiled happily: "The national war should indeed be like this!" But don't brag, I have a difficult thing here, please refer to one or two. ”

"If you have something to say, do you still need to be polite!" Ye Hua shrunk his shoulders and said in an exaggerated tone: "You are so polite, I will be afraid!" ”

Chai Rong restrained his smile, his burden in the rear was no lighter than Ye Hua, in addition to maintaining the military supplies in front, he also had to keep an eye on the Northern Han Dynasty to prevent Liu Chong from causing chaos.

"According to the secret report, Liu Chong sent men and horses to assist the Khitan in the battle."

Ye Hua smiled, "There's nothing strange about it, the master is dispatched, how can the eagle dog not follow!" ”

"Having said that, the people sent to the north by Liu Chong are all old, weak, sick and disabled, and they have no combat power."

"It's not surprising, I know that I want to be cannon fodder, how can I be willing to send the elite out!" Ye Hua said with a smile.

"Then where is Liu Chong's elite?" Chai Rong suddenly asked, Ye Hua is not so relaxed, yes, Liu Chong can't stand still, sit back and watch the success or failure!

Ye Hua pondered intently, if there was no victory in the Gaoliang River, the Khitan would have the advantage, and Liu Chong might be watching from the wall. The problem is that the Khitan has already lost badly, and if it loses again, it will have to get out of the Great Wall.

"Liu Chong is not a stupid person, even if he is reluctant, he will make efforts to help his master, his main force is not placed on the northern line, that is, on the southern line!"

Ye Hua suddenly got up and walked quickly to the front of the sand table, and Chai Rong also followed.

Both of them are extremely smart, and after looking at it for a while, Chai Rong said: "When my father just ascended the throne, Liu Chong waved his army to invade Jinzhou, will he repeat his old tricks this time?" ”

"I think it's likely." Ye Hua held his chin and said slowly: "Jinzhou is less than three hundred miles away from Luoyang, if you can invade Xijing, you can contain the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou...... It's just that just doing this, the next cost is too big! ”

Xijing Luoyang has always been a battleground for soldiers, and the Great Zhou Dynasty is no exception, hoarding heavy troops, and Luoyang belongs to the rule of the Heyang Jiedu envoy, with Mengzhou, Huaizhou and other military towns as barriers, if you want to attack Luoyang, it is equivalent to hitting a stone with an egg!

Without 100,000 lives, don't want to kill Luoyang.

With the national strength of the Northern Han Dynasty, even if everyone is filled in, it may not be able to stir up much waves.

Of course, Chai Rong also saw this, so he was very confused.

"The decisive battle between the Great Zhou and the Khitan, the Northern Han is a big variable, if you can't figure out Liu Chong's movements, make all preparations, and rush to a decisive battle, I'm afraid you will taste defeat."

Ye Hua thought so, "Your Highness is also very cautious in using troops!" ”

Chai Rong snorted, "The land of death and life, the principle of survival, how can you ignore it!" ”

"That's right!" Ye Hua thought about it again, and suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the meandering Yellow River, and he couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. Since ancient times, there have been many battles in which water has been used to replace soldiers, and if Liu Chong opened the Yellow River, the whole of Hebei would become an ocean...... Lives have been devastated, and countless deaths and injuries have been imposed!

Will Liu Chong really do something that creates heavenly evil? He is not afraid of being torn apart by the common people?

"Your Highness, do you think he plans to make a move on the Yellow River?"

Ye Hua said his idea, and Chai Rong's face changed instantly. Yellow River, why didn't he think of it!

Replacing soldiers with water is indeed a poisonous trick!

Liu Chong seized Hedong, bent his knees to the Khitan, and was willing to be a lackey, he was already mad, and he couldn't do anything!

"Yes, you're right! I'm going to write a note to my father, and ask him to be careful. ”

Chai Rong hurriedly wrote to Guo Wei...... At this time, Guo Boss had already raised troops to the north, and the forward had just crossed the Yellow River, when suddenly, a note was sent from the capital.

Guo Wei drove the expedition in person, Chai Rong was also in Yingzhou, and the burden of being responsible for the capital fell on the heads of Prime Minister Fan Zhen and Vice Minister Wang Pu, Guo Wei made a decision after careful consideration, he added the Taishi Feng Dao to stay in Tokyo, ranking above the political hall, and all military affairs need to pass through Feng Dao first, and then send them to the front of the army.

Obviously, Guo Wei still trusts and relies on Feng Dao's wisdom and ability.

The old lady also reluctantly accepted this work, which was already relatively difficult for him. It's really hard for a man in his seventies, his eyebrows and beard are white, and he still has to cheer up.

All in order to recover Yanyun, Lao Feng Dao was also willing. Wang Jing can sprinkle a blood on the battlefield, and he can also throw a blood on the capital!

The loss of Yan Yun has already made too many people taste the pain, and it is time to wash away the shame!

Feng Dao is conscientious and conscientious, and he is busy with all his might.

But at this time, the undercurrent in Beijing was turbulent, and someone wrote a letter of impeachment.

They think that Feng Dao once bent the knot to the Khitan, and now the imperial court has boosted morale, and the army is on a northern expedition, aiming to restore Yanyun, if Feng Dao is used to stay behind, wouldn't it make the Khitan people laugh!

Is there no one in the Great Zhou, so he has to use an old man who is "talentless, virtuous, stupid and dull"?

No talent, no virtue, stupid and dull, this is what Feng Dao said when he met Yelu Deguang in person, and now he is being taken out and abused, and the ridicule cannot be more clear.

"Grandpa, they're too bullying!"

Miss Feng ran in from outside, lay on Feng Dao's lap, and cried aggrievedly: "Now everyone in the capital is saying that my grandfather is a talentless, virtuous, stupid and dull old man. He also said that his grandfather used to be a Khitan courtier, and now he is staying in Tokyo, and he is afraid that he will dedicate the capital to the Khitans! ”

After hearing this, Feng Dao shook his head slightly.

"Okay, the mouth grows on others, what you want to say, say anything! The old man had long expected that there would be such a day! Feng Daoshou frowned slightly, he had long known that his name behind him would not be good, so he wanted to accept Ye Hua as an apprentice...... It's just that he didn't expect it to come so quickly!

The Great Zhou gradually gained a foothold and began to fight in the south and the north.

There are some people who have a bad memory but a strong sense of forgetfulness. After settling down, he began to abuse and attack...... There will always be a group of people in this world who live by scolding.

If you don't scold others, how can you show that you are amazing!

Of course, there are also risks in scolding, such as You Heng, who scolded a circle, and when you meet a grumpy, you directly cut off your head and let you scold again!

After absorbing the lessons of his predecessors, in the troubled times, he still worked more and pretended less garlic, but in the peaceful years, scolding became the lowest cost and the fastest shortcut to fame.

No, Feng Dao has become the target of these people.

It's just that you are honest, and you dare to stay in Tokyo, and you are in power, do you want to be ashamed? No, I'm going to squirt you down!

"Since you have done it, you must admit it. Let them say go, grandpa still has official business, you go! ”

"No!"

Miss Feng shook her head resolutely, "Grandpa is not that kind of person, grandpa, you donated 50,000 yuan to the imperial court, and in order to recover Yanyun, you have always emptied your family." I'm going to let the world know, I'm going to tell everybody! ”

She said, getting up to run outside.

Feng Dao was so angry that he grabbed her, "Girl, don't make trouble for grandpa!" ”

Miss Feng was stunned, "Grandpa, those people are talking nonsense and slandering your old man, do you just sit idly by?" ”

"Alas!" Feng Dao shook his head, "Grandpa is to blame, and he deserves this blame." What's most important right now? Recover Yanyun! How can you abolish the public because of private affairs and delay the major affairs of the court! Don't make trouble at home, grandpa is now in charge of the capital's home, you can't let grandpa really stink for 10,000 years, right? ”

Miss Feng was stupid, her grandfather's words made her heart ache, and it was worse than a knife stab.

She couldn't understand why in this world, there are always some good people who are wronged, and bad people who are rampant? God, are you still fair?

Miss Feng's tears flowed down uncontrollably, she felt as if she had lived in vain for more than ten years, how many grievances had her grandfather suffered? How much bitterness is there in my heart? He laughs every day, I'm afraid it's not a joy in the bitterness, right? Miss Feng's heart is very painful!

Feng Dao finally stood up, walked up to his granddaughter, and wiped the tears from her cheeks with his hand.

"Don't cry, how many people in the world can be prime ministers? Decades without falling? Grandpa is used to seeing the rise and fall of troubled times, if he wants to be unified today, grandpa can make a effort, he is already satisfied, a little floating, don't care, can't help grandpa. ”

Miss Feng didn't believe it and asked, "Really?" ”

"Well, grandpa is used to seeing wind and rain, these methods are all leftovers from your grandfather's play, and they are almost in the market!"
