Chapter 689: Tang and Song Dynasty Alliance
Su Yuanjing couldn't help but praise from the bottom of his heart: "High, it's really high, so Tian Hu is pointed out by thousands of people whether it is official or civil, it must be unjust, no one will help him, Your Highness's plan is no less than 100,000 male soldiers." ”
It turns out that the most important thing in war is that the division is famous, and this is especially true in ancient times when benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith were emphasized, so in addition to the hatred between different races, internal wars generally have to have a grandiose excuse, and everyone will find a way to stand on the moral high ground to show that they are the righteous teachers.
Some people may think that this is not important, whether it is justice or not is not said but fought, and you can see the high and low on the battlefield, if you think so, it is wrong, this name of the teacher does not seem to be able to help you kill the enemy on the battlefield, but it is very helpful in other aspects.
For example, the side that occupies the reason will gain the hearts and minds of the people, so as to occupy a huge advantage in intelligence, logistics, public opinion, etc., the purpose behind most wars is actually for profit, except for those crazy people, few people are fighting for the sake of fighting, so you are still fighting to occupy the other party's land resources and population, if you have become the so-called "tyrant", your team has also become a "bandit", then even if you win the battle, it will take many more twists and turns in the later reign.
It's just that this kind of name is like a little girl, casually the victors dress up, generally speaking, everyone will have their own words, and few people can completely gain the upper hand, just like if you are obviously invading the other party's leader, you can also find an excuse to say that the other party is at fault first, such as robbing your money, your horse, your horse, etc., and then muddy the water to the end, it is not clear, but this time Tian Hu is unlucky, he killed the imperial court in order to kill the imperial court for a while, the so-called war between the two countries is not cut to make it, he is guilty of a big taboo.
In addition, Du Jia's slogan is even more powerful, if you want to say that the imperial court is only limited to internal contradictions, Du Jia is forcibly dragging him into the swamp of national righteousness, whether it is the government or the people or the forces in the rivers and lakes in the Song Dynasty, at least they still think that they are Han, and they have no good impression of the Western Xia State and the Liao State, and the glorious deeds of the Tang State before helping the imperial court defeat the Western Xia barbarians have long been hyped by the imperial court, although the main purpose of the imperial court is to promote the majesty of its own heavenly state, But Tang Guo also became famous by the way.
Therefore, in the minds of the Song Dynasty, the Tang State became the embodiment of justice, the hero of the Han nationality, and Tian Hu was the accomplice of the Western Xia.
Therefore, when the imperial court and the Tang State were bombarded with public opinion, Tian Hu was caught off guard and was made into a mess, and in just a few days, he became the street rat pointed out by Qianfu, and he was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger even after killing several of his subordinates.
He also tried to resist, but in front of the imperial court and the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, he was obviously extremely powerless, at this time Tian Hu finally found that it was not Du Jia who was stupid before, but himself, when he killed the imperial court Qincha but only robbed one or two thousand pieces of property, but now it seems that he has lost a lot of money.
And what made Tian Hu even more headache was not that, after the announcement, the imperial court and the Tang State actually sent troops together, you must know that they were still inseparable more than a year ago, how can they be like brothers in a blink of an eye, what the hell is this called, this Du Jia's diplomatic ability is too terrible, right?
The most shocking thing is to hear that the commander of the coalition army turned out to be Du Jia, the king of Tang, which is simply unprecedented for the imperial court, which has always regarded itself as the superior state of the Celestial Empire, and the whole world was shocked after the news spread, and everyone felt incredible.
However, the Song soldiers of the coalition army felt that it was very normal, and Du Jia said unhurriedly in the big tent: "We not only have to win this first battle, but also do it beautifully, I decided that our goal is here!" ”
After saying that, Du Jia put his hand on the map a little heavier, and everyone looked at it, it turned out to be Fenyang Mansion, and the defender was Tian Hu's second brother Tian Bao, which can be said to be an extremely important city in the Jin Dynasty's forces.
The civil and military officials of the Tang Army have long been accustomed to Du Jia's foresight, and they all nodded again and again, but the generals of the Song Dynasty were somewhat confused, but no one was embarrassed to speak, Du Jia saw their expressions and smiled: "You don't have to be polite, if you have any ideas, just say it, the so-called partial listening is dark, and listening is clear, only if everyone works together can they survive a hundred battles, General Zhang Qing, your Dongchang Mansion is the closest to this Fenyang Mansion, and you are the most familiar with this place, so you can tell me your opinion." ”
Seeing that Du Jia was so approachable and cordial, Zhang Qing's concerns were also dispelled, and after giving a salute, he said aloud: "This Tian Leopard is indeed the old opponent of the last general, we have also fought several times in this Fenyang Mansion, the soldiers are full of food and the city is tall, Tian Leopard is also a fierce general, and his subordinates are also many helpers, the last general is a little puzzled, why don't we start from a simple place first, and when the time comes, a good start can also improve morale, isn't the art of war also said, but everything is difficult to do in advance?" ”
The generals of the Song Dynasty nodded frequently, obviously agreeing with Zhang Qing's opinion, Du Jia smiled and said: "General Zhang's opinion is very good, if it is under normal circumstances, it should indeed be done, but we are different this time, first, we understand this truth, and the people on the Tianhu side naturally understand it, so we will have a surprise effect when we fight Fenyang Mansion; Second, we have been suppressing them in public opinion in the past few days, and they have been so anxious that they would never have imagined that we would take action so soon; Third, the closest to our Tang Kingdom is Yushe County, where the enemy's defense is also the strongest, but they would never have thought that after we joined forces, the imperial court would allow us to send troops directly from Dongping Mansion, so the defense of Fenyang Mansion will not be too strong, it is precisely because of these three favorable factors that this king decided to fight Fenyang Mansion first, what do you think? ”
After Du Jia's careful analysis, the generals of the Song Dynasty were also convinced, they thought at first that Du Jia would also be like those commanders of the Song Dynasty, such as Gao Yu Yang Jian, etc., who didn't understand anything in military affairs but still had to be in charge of everything, you can't be disobedient, otherwise he will use official authority to pressure you, and Du Jia seems to be obviously a big insider, and he also reasoned with everyone on an equal footing instead of oppressing people with power, the generals of the Tang Army were just that, and the Song generals felt respected from the bottom of their hearts, Morale suddenly rose again.
The strongest Tang Dynasty and the richest Song Dynasty join forces, mortals, tremble!
