Zaoyang City on Jinghu North Road, the camp of the Ningwu Army, the Jinghu Theater, and dozens of generals from all over the Ningwu Army gathered in the commander's tent. The envoy of the Jinghu system, the envoy of the Ningwu army, the envoy of the Ningyuan army, and the staff officer of the Governor's Office, Meng Heng, stood high above the commander's tent.

"Marshal, now that my armies from all walks of life have fought many battles, the soldiers are all exhausted, and the food and grass are scarce, why don't you wait for the imperial court to send the grain and grass to arrive, and the armies from all walks of life are resting and recuperating before marching to occupy Xiangyang City? The last general can't figure it out. ”

The one who spoke was Zhang Jun, the commander of the army on the left side of the Ningwu Military Festival and the captain of the light car.

Before a stick of incense, Meng Heng beat the drum and announced a news that surprised everyone. That is, Ning Wujun, Ning Yuanjun and other armies, three days later, they raised troops and attacked Xiangyang City.

This sudden order surprised the Ning Wu Army, the Ning Yuan Army, and the generals in the Jinghu Theater. Because, the order of the armies from all walks of life to be stationed in Zaoyang to rest and recuperate, and wait for the grain and grass sent by the imperial court to arrive before waiting for the opportunity to enter the palace Xiangyang was also given by Meng Hui, and it was only half a month, but Meng Heng completely overturned the previous order, how could he not surprise these generals under him.

In the past month or so, the armies of all walks of life in the Jinghu Theater have basically not stopped, breaking through along the entire line of the Xiangyang defense line laid by the Mongols, and turning to hundreds of miles of Lianke in more than 20 days.

Even they, the generals who commanded the army, know these situations, how can Meng Heng, the commander, not know?

Such a tired army is really not in line with Meng Heng's way of using troops. What's more, there is not much grain and grass in the army, if you can take Xiangyang City in one go, it is fine, in case you don't take it, but you are dragged in Xiangyang City by the Mongols, if the tired soldiers are cut off from food and grass at that time, and the army is in chaos, no one dares to imagine the consequences of the worst consequences.

Once the hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in Xiangyang City were defeated, the Jinghu War Zone of the Great Song Dynasty would become a completely empty city. The Mongols can easily cross the Yangtze River, if the court moves fast enough to drive the Mongols back to Jiangbei, it is fine, if the court moves slowly, when the Mongols cross the river and gain a firm foothold, I am afraid that it will be difficult to drive the Mongols back to Jiangbei at that time.

When the time comes, the Mongols can attack and retreat and defend, and they are only a few hundred miles away from Lin'an City, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and they will be able to come to Lin'an City in two or three days, then they will be the sinners of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Yes! Dashuai, think twice! ”

"If this matter is an order from the imperial court, we can jointly write to the emperor and ask the emperor to withdraw the order!"

"That's right, Dashuai!"

……

With Zhang Jun taking the lead, the rest of the generals who felt that they could have a share in what they said in front of Meng Heng spoke out one after another.

Meng Heng, who was sitting on the handsome seat, was silent, his eyes just staring at the thin letter on the desk in front of him, and his brows were tightly locked.

How could he not know how worried the generals of Lu Dao's subordinates were? It is precisely because he is clear that after taking Zaoyang, he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but chose to set up camp in Zaoyang to reorganize the army.

But things don't always work out as planned.

That thin letter just arrived today, and it was a handwritten letter from Jia Yidao.

In five days, the four people of Wang Zheng were tired of eight war horses, and they rushed from Lin'an City all night long, and finally delivered the letter to Meng Heng in the shortest possible time, and Meng Heng could imagine that the matter was urgent.

Jia Yidao's letter did not say anything else, but briefly said the major events that are happening in the DPRK and China today, including Yu Tianxi's departure in order to resist the news that Zhao Yun sent another 10 million Guan Huizi to buy grain. Later, Jia Yidao made a request to Meng Heng, that is, to ask Meng Heng to occupy Xiangyang City in the shortest possible time, and it was best to keep all the grain in Xiangyang City to fund the army, so as to reduce the pressure on the imperial court.

After the letter, Jia Rudao even mentioned to Meng Hui some ideas such as taking Xiangyang City as the center, overhauling the fortress and arranging it into a defense line and cultivating around Xiangyang City within the defense line, etc., the fortress fortress was originally used to limit the mobility of the Mongolian cavalry, as long as the Mongols lost the help of the cavalry with the most combat power and the most mobile, just relying on the infantry army, relying on many fortresses and fortresses, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to capture Xiangyang City.

These things are the tactics and tactics adopted by Meng Hui after reoccupying Xiangyang City in the original history, and they are also the origin of Meng Hui's name as a master of mobile defense. Jia Rudao just said what Meng Hui was going to do before he thought about it, and naturally it came to Meng Heng's heart.

Although I don't know why Dao Jia seems to oppose the emperor's use of Huizi to buy grain, or even oppose the issuance of Huizi, Meng Hui still knows something about Yu Tianxi. Yu Tianxi's ability to stand on the same front as Jia Yidao, and even go away for it, is enough to show the importance of this matter.

Therefore, after reading the letter, Meng Hui did not hesitate to choose to comply with Jia Yidao's request and launch the Battle of Xiangyang early.

Dozens of generals in the handsome tent saw Meng Heng silent, and they all exchanged heads and talked about it.

Meng Heng coughed lowly, and the handsome tent instantly became silent.

"The general will not hide it from you, this time the troops were raised in advance to occupy Xiangyang, not the emperor's order, but the general...... There is also the meaning of the Korean and Chinese bachelors. Meng Hui hesitated for a moment, but still decided to say Jia Xiangdao.

"Master Jia is now the prefect of Lin'an Mansion, the commander of the front division of the palace, and the direct bachelor of Fuwen Pavilion...... Well, he is still the younger brother of the emperor's favorite concubine Jia Guifei. Speaking of this, Meng Heng saw that the generals below were about to interject, and waved his hand to interrupt: "Listen to Ben Shuai." ”

"Yes, Dashuai!"

"The assassination of Ben Shuai is also an assassin captured by Uncle Jia."

The generals below who were still dissatisfied heard Meng Heng say this, and their hearts suddenly became a little clear.

"Of course, Ben Shuai will not use the lives of his brothers to repay the favor of his Uncle Jia Guo no matter what, Ben Shuai's personality must be trustworthy to the generals."

"That's what the big marshal said! If the last general and others don't believe in anyone, they can't disbelieve in the marshal. ”

"That's it!"

Zhang Jun and the others all said babbling when they heard Meng Hui's words.

Meng Heng raised his hand, and the tent was quiet again.

"Actually, this time we can smoothly carry out the battle of Xiangyang, if it is not for this Uncle Jia Guo to settle the more than one million displaced people gathered in Lin'an City, so that they can eat well, I am afraid that the emperor will not have food for us to carry out this battle of Xiangyang, Ben Shuai and you have prepared the battle of Xiangyang for more than a year, and we can only stop here.

This time, the emperor was unable to give us food and grass, and I don't know what Lu Dao had in mind, so Uncle Jia Guo was in trouble, and we needed to carry out the battle of Xiangyang early, capture Xiangyang City, and use the grain of Xiangyang City to feed ourselves.

In the battle of Xiangyang, Ben Shuai and you all added officials to the knighthood, should we give a helping hand to Shi Xiangye, Yu Gong and Uncle Jia, who have been supporting us behind our backs? Oh, by the way, in order to stop the emperor, Duke Yu has already resigned from the household department, and hung up his crown seven days ago to tell the old man to return to his hometown. ”

"This ......"

When the dozens of generals below heard Meng Heng's words, they all looked at each other.

They never imagined that after their successive victories, the DPRK and China would already be in a mess. Yu Tianxi, the deputy prime minister of the DPRK and the head of the household department who had been sitting firmly for six or seven years, went directly to hang up the crown, which is enough to show the chaotic and grim situation in Lin'an City.

And when they thought of Yu Tianxi, everyone thought of Uncle Jia who was screaming in Meng Hui's mouth one after another.

They are not stupid, so they can naturally hear that the three words Uncle Jia that Meng Hui said in his mouth are obviously not derogatory names, but he is willing to call them like this, even with a little respect.

With Meng Hui's current identity and status, a small uncle obviously doesn't need him to be treated like this, and Meng Heng is not the kind of person who pats the emperor's relatives and relatives. That's enough to tell.

Obviously, Meng Hui admired that Uncle Jia very much, and even treated him as an equal status and status with himself.

This is not surprising to them.

Although these people are far away from the center of the court, and they don't know much about that Uncle Jia, they still have heard of the emperor's favorite concubine, Jia Guifei. How old is Jia Guifei? That Uncle Jia is still Jia Guifei's younger brother, isn't that too young?

Such a young man can make Meng Heng treat him like this, and even listen to Meng Hui's tone, then Duke Yu still hung up his crown for the sake of this Uncle Jia. Meng Hui fortunately owes Uncle Na Jia a favor, but Duke Yu is the son of the emperor's nurse, and he is highly respected, how can he care about a little relative?

Inadvertently, Zhang Jun and other generals have begun to have a lot of curiosity about Jia Yidao, who they haven't seen yet.

Looking at the expressions on the faces of the generals below, the corners of Meng Heng's mouth slightly provoked an arc, and finally he didn't let himself say so much in vain, and reached out and knocked on the case a few times: "Oh, this is a letter sent by Uncle Jia, you can also take a look." ”

Naturally, there were pro-soldiers who took down the handwritten letter of Jia Nidao on the case and showed it to the generals.

"Dashuai, is this really written by Uncle Jia?"

Zhang Jun took it first, read it at a glance and ten lines, and asked in surprise with the letter.

"It's like a fake! Was Deheng very surprised that Uncle Jia Guo, as a scholar and a scholar, how could he know how to march and fight? Meng Hui looked at Zhang Jun and sighed: "Actually, Ben Shuai is even more surprised than you." In Beijing, Ben Shuai knew that this Uncle Jia was not a thing in the pool. Now it seems that Ben Shuai still underestimated him. Hehe, how can a person who can slash a giant bandit in front of tens of thousands of people at the age of a weak crown, how can he really be an ordinary person? ”

"Phew!"

This last sentence made all the generals who were still competing to circulate the letter gasp.

"Handsome, a giant bandit? That Uncle Jia? Tell me about it, say it for you! ”

"That's right, big marshal, tell the last general and the others about it. Is this country's uncle really a man? ”

"Okay, I'll tell you about it."

The smile on Meng Hui's face became more and more vibrant, this was the effect he wanted to achieve, and he naturally wouldn't hide it at this time. As he spoke, he began to tell the generals about Jia Rudao's half-dead smashing.

The handsome tent, which was originally tense, instantly became a place for Meng Heng to "tell stories", and the sound of applause came out from time to time.

……

In mid-June of the second year of Jiaxi, the Ningwu Army, the Ningyuan Army and the Jinghu Theater of more than 10 routes, divided into 16 routes, launched an attack on Xiangyang City at the same time. When the news came, everyone was shocked.
