Chapter 1024: Preparation
Politics was the dirtiest business in that era, and politicians were the most shameless people in the world.
They are a group of profit-oriented, mercenary believers. As long as there is enough interest, they will prostrate themselves on the ground and make you king.
It is also possible to betray anyone for the sake of sufficient benefits. There is a saying that is true, loyalty is only because there are not enough chips for betrayal.
And there are only eternal interests between countries, and this sentence is an extension of politics in the final analysis.
……
Yue announced in a high-profile manner that he would join Lian Heng, Kyushu was in an uproar, and the situation in the world changed.
Politics is a process of compromise, and politicians are the ones who hold the art of compromise.
In the face of the aggressive power of the Qin State and the coercion of the Chu State, especially after seeing a series of encounters with the Yue army, Wu Gongsun Ce was very enthusiastic about Lian Heng.
If you have milk, you are a mother, compared with the filth of the Six Nations Alliance, Wu Gongsun Ce is more optimistic about the Qin State that is at war on three sides.
This is not only because the Qin State is strong and the territory is vast, but also because the Qin State and the Wu State are separated by Chu and Zhao, and they help each other in a short time, but they cannot threaten each other.
The arrival of Qin envoy Wei Li made the palace of Wu State quarrelsome, and the opinions of the civil and military officials were not unanimous, which made Wei Li make Wu have an accident.
……
Qin Gong Yingfei is a hero, but also a military politician, his starting point will eventually fall on the army, often relying on the powerful army in his hands, rampant.
For today's princes, Qin Gong Yingfei is a madman, a complete madman.
It's just that this is a sober and sane madman, he knows in his heart what he wants, and even more clearly what his goals are.
Such people are undoubtedly the most dangerous.
……
Qin Gong Yingfei, who arrived in Lingyang, changed Zhou Yu's strategy of shrinking at the first time, and uncharacteristically ordered the transfer of the army, with the intention of fighting a war to clear the southern battlefield.
In Qin Gong Yingfei's view, Zhou Yu's strategy is a bit naïve, lacking sharpness, and not having enough vision of the overall situation.
……
"Drive."
……
Riding forward, the 120,000 army was like a black torrent, with endless edge and murderous aura, rushing towards Hanshou County.
Zhou Yu, Zhao Yun and other generals followed closely, like a sharp sword, as if they wanted to break the deadlock in the Central Plains and Kyushu at once.
……
"Your Majesty, news came from Heibing Taitai that Taiwei led 50,000 Qin troops to form a Great Qin army formation, and killed 50,000 Wei and Zhao coalition troops under Longxian County, and the two armies were held against each other in Longxian County for a while."
As soon as the army led by Qin Gong Yingfei arrived in Hanshou, he heard exciting news from the Black Ice Terrace, with the victory of Taiwei Xu Shu, even if Wei Yu's mission to Korea failed, it would not have much impact on the overall situation.
"Hmm."
With a slight bow, Qin Gong Yingfei looked at the comer, was silent for a moment, and said: "Always pay attention to the development of the situation in front of Longxian County, and at the same time pay attention to the news of Wei Yu's envoy Han."
"No."
Watching the leader of the Black Ice Platform leave, Qin Gong Yingfei fell his gaze on the faces of everyone present, was silent for a long time, and said.
"You are the mainstay of my Qin State, and since the six countries joined forces to attack Qin, you have defended the southern battlefield and blocked the three kingdoms of Wu, Yue and Chu from Hanshou County."
The sharp gaze swept over everyone's face, and finally fell on Zhou Yu's face, and said.
"Tell Gu, what do you think of the 120,000 Wu Chu coalition troops outside the city?"
The development and growth of the entire Qin State is by no means a matter of one moment, and if you want to annex the six countries of Kwantung and sweep the world to achieve the emperor's throne, you need the support of thousands of people.
At this moment, Qin Gong Yingfei asked like this, making it clear that it was to let these people use their brains more and let them grow rapidly.
"Your Majesty, the army has come from afar, as if they have rested for a while, and after recovering their physical strength, they will fight with the two kingdoms of Wu and Chu and drive them out of the Qin country."
Speaking of this, Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and he said: "The last general thinks that he should send elite iron cavalry to annihilate the advance of the alliance army of Wu and Chu and frustrate the enemy's spirit."
"Hmm."
Bowing slightly, Qin Gong Yingfei did not comment more, but looked at Zhao Yun, Pang Tong and Bai Ge, in his opinion, Zhou Yu's tactics were too conservative.
Even if the 120,000 Wu and Chu coalition forces can be defeated in the end, it will be a protracted war, and the grain and grass of the Qin State are in a hurry, and the country has shown a kind of decline that the edifice is about to collapse.
In this case, a steady and steady tactic like Zhou Yu will consume the Qin State to death and completely fall into a state of no return.
Because of this, Qin Gong Yingfei was not satisfied with Zhou Yu's tactics, but Yingfei also knew that Zhou Yu was different from him, and the two stood in different positions.
There are different understandings of the current situation of the Qin State, which leads to the final choice of the two people.
When Qin Gong Yingfei's gaze fell on Bai Ge's body, Bai Ge's expression changed slightly. He knew in his heart that Qin Gong Yingfei was not satisfied with Zhou Yu's tactics.
As soon as he thought of this, Bai Ge's eyes rolled, and he knew that Qin Gong Yingfei did not agree with this steady and steady method, and wanted to kill with one blow in the shortest possible time.
The thought flickered in his heart, Bai Luo raised his head and looked at Qin Gong Yingfei, and said, "Your Majesty, the last general thinks that he should directly attack the Chu army in the form of a general attack by a large army."
……
Hearing the tactics of the two people, Qin Gong Yingfei smiled and didn't ask Pang Tong again, because he knew that even if he asked, it would probably be like this, and he wouldn't be able to ask anything useful at all.
"Whether it is Gong Jin's steady and steady attack, or the white army pressing, it can defeat the Wu-Chu coalition army, but this will cause our army to suffer heavy losses."
Qin Gong Yingfei's eyes flashed with solemnity, looked at the four generals present, and said word by word.
"Our country is not as good as the Chu State, and it can send a large army into the Zhao State at any time to participate in the war, and the Duke of Chu Yuan Shu can also mobilize an army of 100,000 troops, but Lone can't."
"Even the King of Zhao, Lu Bu, and the Duke of Wei, Cao Cao, although they lost 50,000 troops, but for Wei and Zhao, it is just a drop in the bucket, far from breaking the muscles and bones."
……
The thought flickered in his heart, Qin Gong Yingfei took a deep look at the map, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, and said.
"That's why we have to win this war, and we have to do our best to preserve the army and avoid a lot of casualties."
"Only in this way can we send troops to attack Zhao Guo'an with lightning speed in the next time, and attack the Wei and Zhao coalition forces on both sides with Taiwei."
……
Qin Gong Yingfei's words were like a twilight drum and morning bell, giving Zhao Yun and the three of them an almost enlightened understanding, Pang Tong's eyes flashed with a gleam, looking at Qin Gong Yingfei, and said.
"What does the king mean to write a war?"
