Chapter 726: If the Mountain Can't Come, I'll Go Over!
PS: Chapter 2, ask for recommendation votes!
"It is said that Han Geng unfortunately died in the chaos when the enemy army entered the city."
It's good to be dead! After learning the news, Zhao Wuxian breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that Han Geng would surrender to the Zhi, and then persuade his father and son for the Zhishi, in that case, it would be a question whether the weak-willed Han could firmly stand on the Zhao side after suffering a blow. Now that Han Geng is dead, the enmity between the Han family and the Zhi family has become greater.
However, he put on an angry look on his face, called him "uncle", and even burst into tears, and had to persuade his subordinates to mourn and change his ways.
That night, in the main tent of the Zhao family, the military meeting was held again, Yang Hu, Yang Yin, Mu Xia, Xiang Lu, Duan Gui and others gathered together to discuss the battle situation on the Western Front after the fall of Pingyang.
It turned out that Zhao Wuxian's mourning clothes that had just been taken off because of Zhao Bolu's death were now put on again, this time it was a "small gong" made of cooked linen.
"I'm mourning for Uncle Han." Wuxian explained: "My son and I are righteous brothers, his father, and my father!" The enmity between father and son is not shared, I will destroy the Zhi clan with Ziyin, divide the children of the city, and avenge my uncle! ”
Although he knew that Zhao Wuxian was acting, he seemed to be showing his true feelings, and Duan Gui was moved to thank him. However, in this way, as a righteous brother, Zhao Wuxian can say so, Han Hu, as Han Geng's own son, unless he wants to be spurned by the world, even if the clan soldiers are defeated, he has to stay on Zhao Wuxian's side to fight the Zhi clan to the end.
Duan Gui thought sourly in his heart: "The old master doesn't know if he can survive the pain of losing his son, the gentleman will become the heir, maybe he will be the Han clan sect master in a few years." His name is Brother Yi, and he actually relied on the Zhao clan to survive this battle. I only hope that the Zhao clan can win this battle, and I hope that Zhao Wuxian can fulfill his promise after the war. Some of the benefits of Han's ......"
……
It was still after the resignation of the paragraph regulations that the military discussion officially began.
"Two small defeats do not determine the success or failure of the entire war." Yang Hu, who advocated the east first and then the west, insisted, "Although the western front has fallen into passivity, it is far from defeated." ”
Yang Yin, who suggested that the west should be followed by the east, had a different opinion, he glanced at Yang Hu, unfolded the leather map, and flattened it.
"The failures of Han and Dou Li have left us with a mess. Pingyang has fallen, and the enemy's hands that have been tied for more than half a year have been withdrawn, judging from the news sent by Wen County. It is roughly divided into three parts: Shi Kui, Fan Yigao's Fan, and Zhongxing soldiers have 10,000 people, and they will definitely follow the attack on Lou County, which is hundreds of miles away from Jinyang, and I am afraid it will be difficult to protect. And the army of the commander of Qin also has 10,000, and the army of the Zhi clan is ready to go, and the two armies either go north to Jinyang against the Fenshui, or go east with more than 10,000 people from Zhiyao to attack Tonglu and Shangdang. ”
"There is no resistance in Lou County, and near Shangdang, Zhao Han can gather five or six thousand people. There are seven or eight thousand on the Jinyang side, and they can only be on the defensive. It is said that the Zhi clan also said that if the Daijun went south, Jinyang would be in danger! ”
Yang Hu retorted: "Xiawu Mountain is not so easy to turn. The sentence note plug is not so easy to break. Jinyang and Shangdang are both easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with the overall planning of Dong Zi and Yin Dafu (Yin Duo), it should be no big problem to hold out for a few months. ”
Zhao Wuxian nodded: "Jinyang is a sword hanging over Zhibo's head. If Jinyang is not lost, he will not dare to cross the Taihang River to attack Handan, the Hanoi River. Dong Zi is old and steady, and Jinyang should be worry-free. Comparatively. I'm still more worried about the Shangdang who is being targeted by Zhiyao, as well as the various passes and roads in Taihang......"
Zhao Wuxian pondered for a while and said, "Send a messenger to Chaoge, and transfer Wu Jing with a thousand people to help Doctor Yin." ”
Xiang Lu also said: "In addition, Handan should also pay attention to the fact that more than 10,000 people of the Chen family have crossed the river, and they have seen that our army is defending the country, and they have no time to return to the division, and there is no problem in holding Handan, but the surrounding counties are only afraid that there will be repeated, if the Chen family opens up Handan and connects with the Zhi family in the west in the Pukou Road, it will be troublesome." ”
Seeing that everyone was a little worried, Zhao Wuxian clapped his hands and said: "There is a lot of bad news, but the good news is not nothing, just now, there was news from Chaoge to Chuqiu. The letter said that Chen, who was trying to get involved in Handan, had just landed and was discovered by the post of Liangsi. He was also bold, and sent more than 100 cavalry to bluff for a while, which shocked 10,000 Chen soldiers and injured hundreds. Chen Heng suspected that there was an ambush, so he moved a hundred miles north from the landing point, apparently wanting to enter the territory of the Bank of China clan, and then slowly encroach on the counties of Handan......"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "Ziliang Sima is incapable of using soldiers to the Jin Kingdom, and the Chen family is afraid that this time it will be a loss-making deal." ”
However, Zhao Wuxian also had hidden worries in his heart, in the Snow Field War, he was taken advantage of by Chen Heng, who appeared at the most opportune time. This person is as cunning as a fox, ruthless as a snake, but he is quite familiar with military and political affairs, and his military strength is only less than 5,000, and he has to leave people to defend the city, he can scare Chen Heng once, but it is difficult to have a second time. If the remnants of the Zhongxing clan went south to cooperate with the Chen clan, it would also be a troublesome matter.
The encirclement network, which had just been broken because Zheng Guo did not move, suddenly began to tighten again, and fires broke out everywhere in the west and north, but Zhao Wuxian did not have the time and troops to save him.
However, this matter will not be spoken, and the generals must be allowed to see the victory, so that they will have the confidence to continue to follow him. He pretended to be optimistic and said: "Just let Zhiyao and Chen Heng be proud for a few more months, and when the Qi army is settled, I will be happy to compete with them on the battlefield in person!" ”
Everyone was stunned, "General, are you going to give up the siege and defend the country?" ”
"It's not okay to drag it out like this, we have to deal with the Qi army before the Han clan collapses again and loses the entire Taihang defense line! Since the mountain can't come, then I'll take the initiative to go there! ”
"What about Diqiu?"
"I'm not worried about Diqiu's side, after Kong Yu set an example, the doctors of the Wei Kingdom came and surrendered one after another, Wei Hou Yuan's troops were not much left, and Wang Sun Jia was a cautious person, presumably this continuous defeat would make him more cautious, so as long as there were soldiers besieging outside the city, he would not dare to attack."
"What does the general mean is that part of the troops will be left behind to pretend to besiege, while the main force will sneak eastward?"
"However, this bluffing task can be entrusted to the Song people."
Before thinking about victory, first thinking about defeat, although Zhao Wuxian made up his mind to go east, he had to stay behind on the side of Weiguo. If it is defeated by the Qi army, it is fine, but if it is defeated, Chen's army is not far from here, and then it may turn around and go south. And Zheng Guo's attack on the Barbarian Clan has been delayed for a few months, this will also come back to his senses, and he doesn't know when he will march towards Wei Guo and stab Zhao Wuxian from behind.
Therefore, he needed to leave a way back for the defense of the country, and this task also needed the assistance of allies, compared to the weak army of the Han clan, the Song people were more reassuring to Zhao Wuxian.
Song did his best in this war, regardless of the difficulties in the country, first sent a division into Lu to assist in the defense, and then sent 5,000 troops, led by Sima Chen Dingguo of Le's family, to defend the country to help Zhao Wuxian. They lurked north of Pushui, and as soon as the Qi army entered the country, they would cooperate with the Zhao army to fight a decisive battle.
It's a pity that the Qi people didn't get into the trap of Zhao Wuxian's plan of "besieging and saving Lu", since the mountain does not move, then it can only be moved, just let the Song army take over Zhao Jun's camp, and at the same time guard the back road for Zhao Wuxian.
In this way, after leaving behind the auxiliary troops who were not of much use in battle, Zhao Wuxian could only lead more than 10,000 people eastward, but the Qi country was in the Lu country, but a full 50,000 people were released!
So he needs another favor from Song Guo.
There is no need for someone to write, and the seal pen that is getting better and better is written on bamboo paper.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, I miss it very much, and I hope that Ziming can lead the army into Xilu, stay with me and talk at night, and fight the culprit who plotted to assassinate Lebo, Qi Hou Pestle!"
……
In April of Mengxia, Shangqiu of the Song Kingdom, the willows on the edge of Si are still around, and the leaves of the paulownia trees outside the Song City have also turned dark green.
Several light horsemen passed through the Tu Dao in the north, and as they galloped, the knights kept whipping their horses, urging them to hurry.
The people of the Song Dynasty were accustomed to this, and after the end of the civil strife, the ruling government began to set up pavilions and posts on important transportation routes, and the person in charge of transmitting the book was no longer a light car, but a single horse sent by the Zhao family.
In the past few years, although under the unbelievable bird taming technique of the Gongzhi Chief, Qufu, Yuncheng and Fei County in Lu have realized the mutual communication of carrier pigeons, in addition to Qufu Tongshang Hill and Qufu Tongwen County. But there was nothing else, so Zhao Jun's messenger could only run on fast horses, changing horses at post stations along the way, and it took more than three days to run from Diqiu to Shangqiu.
"Do you say you have no clothes? Fellow with the Son! Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son! ”
One moment after the letter was delivered, in the palace room of the Song Kingdom, after reading Zhao Wuxian's letter, the ruling Le Wei read "the same enmity with the son" several times, then sighed, turned to Song Junjiao, who was sitting on the king's couch with an ignorant face, and Nanzi, who was wearing a big witch service on the side, and listened to the government with a curtain...... No, it's the Great Witch. Do you think that with the current situation of the Song Kingdom, do you still want to send troops to Xilu? (To be continued.) )
