Chapter Eighty-Seven: Determination (2-in-1)

In the early morning, when the first drum sounded, Xin Xi was already sitting in the handsome tent.

One after another, Han Qi and Yang Wenguang came, and then, the pillars of the family, the three brothers who are now called the three kinds of seeds, seeds, seeds, and diagnosis, also slowly walked in.

After another quarter of an hour, all the middle and high-level generals of the Western Army arrived.

Xin Xi slowly swept around and said softly: "Xin is the first time to come to Qingjian City, and it is the first time to lead troops to start a war with Western Xia Tubo, so I hope you will take care of it." ”

"Don't dare!" The neat and tidy voice didn't dare, and Xin Xi couldn't help but wonder if this 'don't dare' was rehearsed by these guys a long time ago.

Temporarily suppressed this out-of-tune thought, Xin Xi looked at the three brothers, and said: "This Qingjian City was built by Mr. Chong, who was known as Xiao Zhuge back then, and the Chongjia Army has been running this place for more than 30 years. ”

Chong Mo nodded slowly, got up and said: "Back to the commander-in-chief, Qingjian City is the hometown of the old Kuanzhou, and it is the first barrier that belongs to Yanzhou and Yan'an, and the land is dangerous and easy to defend. ”

"The subordinates think that this time we take the initiative to start the war between the two countries, we can stick to Qingjian City, and then divide the army into three routes, one way from Lanzhou to the north, trying to climb the city of Xixia Yongdeng, and the other way to transfer the Huaide Army from Xi'an Prefecture to kill Niuling, seeking to capture Xixia Weizhou, and then go north, pass Xiping Mansion, and coerce Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Western Xia, at the same time, the third army north out of Xining Prefecture, provoke the dispute between Western Xia and Tubo!" After saying it in one breath, he sat down slowly.

Xin Zhen looked at the map in front of him, and kept looking at the locations that he said, and at a cursory glance, this was indeed the best route to destroy Western Xia, maybe this tactic had existed in Chong Ge's mind for I don't know how many years.

It's just that this tactic is suitable for the Great Song Dynasty to eliminate Western Xia in one fell swoop after the country became rich and strong, but it is not suitable for now.

Xin Zhen shook his head and said: "Brother Zizheng's tactics are indeed very good, but this is a tactic to destroy Western Xia, and from the perspective of destroying Western Xia, it did not cut off the connection between Western Xia and Khitan, but only cut off Tubo, so there is some lack of existence." ”

Han Qi also nodded and said: "What the commander-in-chief said is right, this is a strategy to destroy Western Xia, and now, the Great Song Dynasty is not ready to fight to the death with Western Xia, but only intends to provoke a battle between Western Xia and Tubo." If the army is dispatched to Xingqing Mansion with the Huaide army, it will force the Western Xia to devote the strength of the whole country to start a war with our Great Song Dynasty, but it will become more and more unable to provoke the war between the Western Xia and Tubo. ”

The rest of the generals also began to speak quickly, and began to show their sense of existence, after all, they were under the new commander-in-chief of the Western Army, no matter what, they all wanted to show themselves, because, the performance at this time naturally represents the impression in the heart of the commander-in-chief, if the impression is good, there will be a lot more opportunities for promotion and meritorious service in the future.

Every word you say to me, the whole big tent is very lively, however, the strategies that these people say are a little too taken for granted.

Xin Xi was suddenly speechless for a while, he felt that if he wanted to provoke a war between the two countries, it seemed very troublesome if he didn't use some internal and external cooperation!

It's really troublesome!

It was also at this time that he came to his senses, and Zhao Shu asked him to be the commander-in-chief of the Western Military Power, because he was afraid that he didn't have any good intentions from the beginning.

It should be that Zhao Shu also realized that if he wanted to make Western Xia and Tubo fall out, he needed to use fine work no matter what, and in the entire Great Song Dynasty, the most qualified fine work, there were only two armies, one was the Tiance Army, and the other was Xinxi's Shadow Guard Army.

Now that the Tiance Army on the North Road has been wiped out, Zhao Shu is estimated to be reluctant to let the Tiance Army on the West Road also break his bones, so he let Xin Xi serve as the commander-in-chief of the Western Military Power, so that he is not afraid that Xin Xi will refuse to send the Shadow Guard Army to Tubo and Western Xia.

Xin Xi shook his head helplessly, the throne is really a very magical thing, after sitting on the throne, no matter who it is, it will eventually become a qualified emperor, and a qualified emperor can calculate the interests of the world!

"That's it for now, I'll send a fine work to Tubo and Xixia to investigate, and discuss it tomorrow!" The words fell, and Xin Xi turned away from the main account.

This Nima doesn't seem to be here to fight!

Playing until now, Xin Zhen was stunned to discover this, if it was just a simple war, he would naturally lead the army to fight all the way, well, this is what he used to think of as a war, at least, when he was in the Daimyo's Mansion, he did it, at most he was adding a little bit of strategy.

But once he sat in the position of coach, Xin Xi found that he really couldn't play a war of more than 100,000 people, at least, after the number of people exceeded 100,000, there were too many things for him to consider in such a war.

It was precisely because he had thought about too many things that he felt that the strategies put forward by those generals under Fang Cai's account were too taken for granted, because, once the strategies that seemed perfect to those generals were considered one more point, the so-called perfection would immediately become full of loopholes!

It's nerve-wracking!

He felt that he should use statistical methods to plan everything in the barracks well, and then he could make accurate judgments.

First of all, the food and grass, secondly, the military spirit, secondly, the deployment of the army, and then secondly, the deployment of the enemy's forces, the character and way of doing things of the enemy's generals and commanders............

Nima, that's too much!

No wonder, Han Qi has never won a war in his life, and it is because it is too complicated.

Thinking of this, Xin Xi had to admire gods such as Bai Qi and Han Xin, who commanded no less than 100,000 troops every time they fought in a war.

Especially Han Xin, he even asked Han Xin to order troops, the more the merrier.

It's too much, the coach will die of overwork!

Xin Xi lay on the table helplessly, this Nima's nerve-wracking degree almost made him have the idea that even if he directly led the Shadow Guards to kill Tubo, he wouldn't be so tired.

"Eleven Lang, is it really that painful?! If we don't care about this Western Army, we can directly rely on the Shadow Guard Army to penetrate Tubo! Thirty-six on the side comforted.

Hearing this, Xin Yi pursed his lips: "It's such a simple battle, and you are so unbearable, you are really not suitable for the position of commander of the Shadow Guard Army!" ”

Xin Zhen glanced at Xin Yi and Thirty-six helplessly, too lazy to speak.

But at the same time, he also knew that these things were something he had to understand, and this was a step that he had to go through in the future to attack the Western Xia Khitan, and even to fight against the Mongols!

Otherwise, when the time comes, when Da Song doesn't have a commander who can handle it, what will he do?!

Perhaps, after taking over Master Xuyi from Tianzhu this time, he should start to establish an institution such as a military academy to cultivate some military commanders for the Great Song Dynasty?!

But the problem is that when you start a military school, you don't know how many countercurrents you will encounter!

Thinking about the current environment of the Great Song Dynasty, which emphasizes literature over martial arts, Xin Xi felt a headache.

Throwing off these near-term worries, Xin Xi continued to flip through a large number of official cases on the table, and continued to study little by little.

It was also at this time that Xin Si walked in with Xin Ba Xin Jiu.

Xin Ba and Xin Jiu are in charge of the intelligence of Western Xia and Tubo in the Shadow Guard Army, and as for the Khitan, it is Xin Er, who has already gone to sea, is in charge, and now it seems that Xin Liu is in charge......

"You know all about it, right?!" Xin Xi raised his head and looked at the few people in front of him, quite a little unangry and arrogant.

Xin Ba Xin Jiu nodded at the same time: "Back to the commander, we have already arranged it, each took three teams to set off, Xixia and Tubo side, there was already our shadow guard eyeliner, now you only need to go over and tie up with those eyeliners, at most three days, the information asked by the commander will be delivered!" ”

"Good!" Xin Xi nodded: "The sooner the information is sent, the better, after all, we have to make corresponding arrangements for the two countries." ”

Speaking of this, Xin Xi said again: "In this way, after the information is sent, send it to Xin Si first!" ”

At this point, Xin Xi turned his head to look at Xin Si and said: "Xin Si, after the intelligence arrives, you first screen out the important ones, and then, you also have to think about it, how to arrange it for Western Xia and Tubo, when you come to see me, I hope that you will not only tell me which information is important, but will come up with at least two feasible plans for me!" ”

Xin Si was stunned, and then nodded quickly, but his heart was full of excitement, because the commander asked him like this, it was clear that he valued him and believed him, otherwise, if he didn't believe in him, if he didn't pay attention to him, how could Xin Xi dare to hand it over to him.

After all, if the person who screens the intelligence has bad intentions, it is very easy to cover the sky with one hand!

"Yes! The subordinates will work hard and hard, and be sure to come up with a feasible and perfect arrangement! ”

Xin Zhen nodded: "Then, you can go down and do your own thing." ”

"Whoa!" The three of them raised their heads and answered loudly.

Watching the three of them leave, Xin Yi smiled disdainfully: "I don't have serious skills, it's quite powerful to buy people's hearts, but let Xin Si be in charge of such an important intelligence screening alone, so that you are not afraid that Xin Si will cover the sky with one hand and put you in the air?!" ”

Thirty-six frowned, looking at Xin Yi's gaze, very displeased.

Xin Xi smiled and shook his head: "He won't, and he won't dare!" ”

"Why?!" Xin Yi was a little puzzled, when Xin Yi was in office, he never dared to delegate power like this.

Xin Xi smiled and said: "Compare my heart to my heart, if I am in his position, the commander above his head has removed Xin Yi and exiled Xin Er Xin San in just one month, and he is Xin Si, do you think he can still do things without trembling?!" ”

"People's hearts change!" Xin Yi snorted coldly.

"But, at least for three years, he won't even dare to change, and after three years, he won't dare even more!" Xin Zhen spoke softly, and his whole body was filled with infinite confidence.

Xin Yi was stunned for a while, at least, she had never seen such a confident appearance on his father Xin Tier.

Time passes slowly.

In the blink of an eye, Xin Xi had been in Qingjian City for three days, and the generals under the account had more or less complained about him, after all, he hadn't done anything for three days!

This is the commander-in-chief of the Western Military Power?!

It's just a hairless child, commanding an army of nearly 700,000 people, and people eat and eat horses and eat here, which is simply a waste of money and food.

They are deeply worried that they will run out of food and are not ready for war!

It was in this atmosphere that Xin Xi smiled faintly, because the Shadow Guard Army had already passed the information back.

Xin Si was standing in front of Xin Xi at this moment, and said respectfully: "The commander of the border army in Xining Prefecture in Western Xia is Anqing, and this person in Anqing is the person who settled down in the wealthy family of Western Xia, this person is unruly, there is no one in his eyes, and he looks down on the Song people the most!" ”

"On the Tibetan side, now stationed at the border of Xining Prefecture is the Hugeda Division, which is full of soldiers, with about 30,000 troops deployed, and to the west of the Hugeda Division, there is the Nongdier Division, which has a military strength of 130,000! The Nongdier tribe is the third largest tribe in Tibet, and its leader, Mo Luozhi, is even more happy! ”

"Therefore, my subordinates think that we can unite with the Non Dieer Department to attack the Renduo Spring City on the border of Xining Prefecture in Western Xia, withdraw our troops at the right time, and hand over the Renduo Spring City to the control of the Non Dieer Ministry, and the Non Dieer Ministry's ambition to become the lord of the Tubo State must be reluctant to give up the Renduo Spring City, so in the eyes of the guy in Anqing, the culprit of the attack on the Renduo Spring City must not be the timid Song people, but the rampant Tubo barbarians, which can be regarded as a preliminary provocation of war between the two countries. In the future, we can seek benefits from Tubo or Western Xia, as helpers, but when the war is fierce, the Western Army immediately withdraws, and Tubo and Western Xia, who are fighting with their livers, will not let go easily, and will inevitably become more and more intense! ”

After Xin Si finished speaking, he looked up at Xin Xi, and felt a sense of pride in his heart.

Xin Xi nodded with you, he was also very satisfied with this strategy, but at the same time, UU read the book .net He opened his mouth indifferently and asked, "What about the second strategy?!" ”

This is the way of the royal majesty, and you must not let the tail of your subordinates, otherwise the higher it goes, sooner or later something will happen!

Xin Si was slightly stunned, aren't you still satisfied?!

Immediately, there were beads of sweat on Xin Si's forehead: "The second and second strategies are to directly provoke the three kingdoms to fight, suggest a bitter strategy, and the commander can pretend to fall out with either the family army or Han Qi and Yang Wenguang, and then, the commander will cooperate with Tubo to attack the Western Xia Renduoquan City, and the person who has a falling out with the commander will help the Western Xia attack the Tubo Datong City, so that the three parties will completely fall into a white-hot war, and I, the Great Song Dynasty, will also have countless casualties!" ”

Hey,, there's a better plan!

Xin Xi was speechless for a while, but at the same time, he also knew that if the second strategy was used, the loss of the Great Song Dynasty would be the greatest.

Frowning slightly, Xin Xi nodded: "It's a good job, just use the first strategy you said, now, I'll wait to plan the details of this strategy, and tomorrow, I'll be ready to send troops!" ”

Xin Si nodded: "Wow!" ”
