Chapter 317: Divergent Thinking
The sunset dyed Dongting Lake red, and a group of six riders walked slowly by the lake.
After listening to Wang Shen's words, Yue Yun shouted angrily: "What a Yang Mi, it's really hateful. Even if we feed the dogs, we don't give him that food. ”
Wang Shen sighed: "Otherwise, what else, don't take the waterway, we will lose the opportunity in this battle, time, time is the key to this battle." Things in the world are sometimes so helpless. ”
Yue Yun: "I'm just a nest fire, this battle is obviously won by us, but it feels like we lost." ”
"Time...... Time...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid of Fang Irong's side......" Wang Shen's heart sank, and he felt the danger of the opportunity.
Yue Yun also shouted: "Yes, the Jurchen army in Xiangyang may go to Yingzhou at any time, I'm afraid that Fang Irong won't be able to withstand it." He had never fought against the Jurchens, and he didn't know how strong the Jurchens were. The military envoy, did you send a general to gallop to Yingzhou on a light horse, take over the military power of the White Army, and first resist Wanyan Xiyin and Yelu Mawu? Quick, write a warrant to me, I will cross the lake to Yingzhou tonight, hoping to hold the main road of Yingzhou and wait until the main force of Beiwei passes. ”
"You're going?" Wang Shen shook his head: "Who will bring the back army?" ”
Yue Yun: "Just let the old cow take it." ”
Niu Gao smiled bitterly: "Ying Xiang, I can't take your soldiers." Lao Niu, I have only been in the Sizhou army for a few days, and I have not fought any hard battles, and those savages under your command are not convinced. ”
Wang Shen: "Okay, Yue Yun, you go, and I will personally lead the Wei Army." After all, Niu Boyuan has just joined my Sizhou army, and even if he goes to Yingzhou, he may not be able to control Tabai. ”
After saying that, he gave the war horse a whip fiercely.
After returning to Xingyuan, Wang Shen quickly wrote a warrant, handed the talisman to Yue Yun, and said, "Ying Xiang, haven't you always wanted to ask me for cavalry, today I will give you a chance to lead cavalry to fight, and set off in an hour." After going to Yingzhou, he was fully responsible for the defense there. Remember, no matter what, you must guard the passage between the Nanyang Basin and the Jianghan Plain at all costs, and don't let the Jurchens come over. ”
Yue Yun arched his hand: "Yes, Xianggong, even if Yue Yun doesn't want to give up this life, he has to block the Jurchen." If this battle is lost, the envoy can cut off my head. ”
Wang Shen said sharply: "What do I want your life to do, I want you to block that passage!" If I go to Yingzhou to command the battle, don't drink and greed for glasses, don't abuse the soldiers, if I hear you eating and drinking in the army in the future, military law will do it. ”
"Yes, Xianggong." Yue Yun was aggrieved in his heart: I love to eat and drink, but as soon as I eat wine, I go back to sleep in the tent, when did the cruelty of the soldiers, don't you need to be strict in governing the army?
Yue Yun has a perverse temper, and he is a second-year teenager who is not afraid of heaven and earth. In real history, there is Yue Feizhen, and after years of war tempering, he has finally been trained to become a qualified general with the army.
But in this time and space, Wang Shen really has no way to take this future brother-in-law, he can persuade him, but he can't persuade him, so he can only let it go.
****************************************************
After going down, Yue Yun didn't delay, immediately packed up and rode off with the five white scouts, it didn't even take half an hour, the biggest advantage of this kid is to be vigorous and resolute.
As for the other troops, they began to pack up busily, and the ship left Dingzhou early the next morning.
Wang Shen didn't need to worry about this, everything was to be worried about by Du Shu, Yan Yumeng and Huang Zuo.
Since he was leaving, Wang Shen entered Dingzhou City and said goodbye to the gentry in Zhizhou that night.
Seeing that Wang Shen had eliminated Manichaeism, Dingzhou Zhizhou and the others came up to toast one after another, saying a lot of flattering words, and it could be seen that they were in high spirits.
Seeing their appearance, Wang Shen felt a little sad inexplicably. As a traverser, he naturally knew that in another year at most, Manichaeism would launch another popular uprising. This time, Yang Mi will give up Zhong Xiang's set of gods and ghosts. Both in military operations and in civil affairs will become more pragmatic. In this way, Mani will be more powerful, and the situation in Hunan will become more and more out of control.
He Wang Shen eliminated Zhong Xiang, the evil wolf, but released Yang Mi, the tiger, out of the cage.
In this time and space without Yue Fei, Wang Shen didn't think that there was anyone else in the Southern Song Dynasty who was Yang Mi's opponent, not even Li Gang, unless Zhao Gou sent Han Shizhong over. However, Han Liangchen had to garrison Lianghuai. The two Huai are directly related to the defense of the river and the safety of the newly born small court of the Southern Song Dynasty, and there needs to be a tiger general to guard it, so it is naturally impossible for him to come over to quell the chaos.
How the situation will go in the future, no one knows.
After the banquet, Wang Shen rode on his horse, and when the wine came up, he felt a headache.
However, when he was slightly comforted by his heart, Yang Qi and Zhong Xiang were different from those who blindly loved to kill, and they were politically minded people. After the revolt, he abandoned many of the teachings of Manichaeism, comforted the people a lot, and began to establish an effective and tolerant government. In this way, the people of Hunan will also suffer a lot less crimes.
"Actually, in my heart, I would like Yang Mi to be an evil fanatic, so it will be much easier to deal with in the future." The lights in the houses on the street were projected on Wang Shen's face, making his expression look cloudy: "Since God has arranged it like this, what can I do...... I can only accept it. In another time and space, after Zhao Gou's regime was stabilized, this birdman was scared by the Jurchens, and he really didn't want to fight anymore. He is bent on guarding half of the south of the Yangtze River and living a peaceful life. As for the fallen north, as well as the foundation of the Han family, how can it be compared to his three acres of land and a cow, and his wife and children are hot on the kang? ”
"In another two years, when the situation is clear and the two countries of Song and Jin begin to confront each other militarily, Zhao Laojiu will begin to reuse Qin Hui to negotiate peace with the Jurchens. At that time, all the main battle factions had to die, and all the generals who led the troops had to be deprived of military rights one by one. At that time, Lao Tzu may really become the hound that was cooked and killed after the death of the cunning rabbit. ”
"I really know too well what kind of person Zhao Laojiu is, and I can't avoid this level in the future. At least for now, Wang still needs the banner of Zhao Song to unite people's hearts, and he, an official, has to pinch his nose and admit it. ”
"However, if someone wants to put a knife in your neck, you have to arrange it in advance."
"Very well, you must do your best to hide the birds, and I will not shoot the birds of the sky." In my opinion, Niu Gao has a good way to live with Yang Mi, very good! With Yang Qi maintaining military pressure on the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty in the Dongting Lake District, he Zhao Jiu has a place where he needs Wang Shen. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Yang Mi is powerful, it is not a big deal. After all, he is also a Yanhuang man. In the future, after abandoning the cult proposition, even the contradictions within our nation can be resolved at the end. ”
"Giggles, in my opinion, Niu Gao put Yang Mi well, and it was wonderful!"
Thinking of this, Wang Shen felt that he was already a little drunk, and began to think divergently: "In the future, when this crisis is over, I can take Nanyang and Xiangyang by taking advantage of the situation, taking the Nanyang Basin as the foundation, and raising troops with the wealth of Jiang and Han, I, Wang Shen, will immediately be the first feudal town in the world." Once the time is ripe, troops can be sent to Henan to recover the fallen territory. Husband, when you come to this world, you always have to do something for the country and the nation. When the time comes, Yang Qi will sweep south of the Great Lake, and with him involved, the court will not do anything to my Wang Shen. ”
"Giggles, in my opinion, Niu Gao put Yang Mi well, and it was wonderful!"
"In addition, in fact, it is not impossible to deal with Zhao Jiu, as long as Lao Tzu is not as pedantic as Yue Fei's father-in-law in history, as long as you don't take the court seriously, Zhao Gou doesn't dare to do anything to you, and he dares to bully loyal people like Yue Fei and Han Shizhong. I think that the Xuanfu of Sichuan made Wu Jie and Wu Lin brothers always take the emperor's holy decree as a fart. In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the imperial court did not know how many transit envoys and feudal officials had been sent to Sichuan. Except for Zhang Junde, who is highly respected, and can still suppress the two brothers, the others will die as much as they want. In the end, the emperor had no choice but to acquiesce in their feudal separation, knowing that the Wu brothers were ill, so he regained the power of Sichuan. ”
"In the future, Lao Tzu can be like the Wu brothers, and if necessary, he can also have a southwest joint insurance with them."
Thinking of this, Wang Shen felt that his eyes lit up and his mood became happy. He was thinking about waiting until the battle of An Lu's future life and death was over, and then he sent someone to contact the Wu family brothers. Suddenly, a guard in front shouted: "What people! ”
This loud shout interrupted Wang Shen's thoughts, and he looked up, only to see about ten heavily armed cavalrymen approaching unhurriedly in the distance.
Wang Shen was shocked: Li Chengyu?
No way!
As far as he knew, Li Cheng's departure from Dingzhou this time could be said to have taken away all the soldiers he could use.
When Wang Shen returned from Lianyunzhai, he immediately sent someone to take over the defense of Dingzhou, and also investigated the suspicious elements in the city.
But in the middle of the night, this cavalry came out of nowhere.
Suddenly, all the guards around him drew out their riding bows on their backs, drew a circle and pointed forward: "What person, stop!" If we don't stand again, we will defend ourselves against arrows. ”
Wang Shen also flipped his hand over, and touched the handle of the horse chopping knife hanging on the saddle.
"Don't do it, we are the cavalry army under General Chen Lanruo, and the Wang army is here?"
"Stop, General Chen is here, but is it the envoy of the king?"
Wang Shen looked fixedly, and it was not Chen Lanruo who was the leader, so he shouted: "Put down the bow and arrows." Then he rode over and said with a smile: "General Chen, why did you still come out to patrol in the middle of the night?" ”
Chen Lanruo's expression was faint: "Envoy Wang, this Dingzhou was originally the defense area of my father-in-law Li Tianwang, isn't it okay for me to come out to patrol in the middle of the night?" ”
Wang Shen smiled bitterly and touched his nose: "Naturally, it is possible." ”
"Where do you want to go?" Chen Lanruo asked again.
Wang Shen: "Naturally, I went back to the barracks." ”
"Okay, I'll send the army out of the city."
"Don't use it?"
Chen Lanruo glanced at Wang Shen, gave the war horse a whip and ran out first: "I'll open the city gate, you come with me, I have something to say." ”
"Wait for me." [.]
