Section 258 Direction of Attack
On the Hexi Road, when the Tang people felt that they were hunting in spring, easy to harvest and not dangerous, the Tang Dynasty Western Regions and the Hetao, Min, and Songmao Prefectures on the southwest border were all attacked by the Tubo people, and wolf smoke rose everywhere!
Relying on the power of horses, they attacked everywhere, tried everywhere, and once they felt that the resistance of the Tang people was weak, they concentrated their forces and broke through from there. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
They will achieve their goal with great certainty.
There is a fixed number of defensive forces in every place in the Tang Dynasty, but the Tubo people can concentrate their forces to form a local advantage, and they will definitely be able to break through!
Just as in a one-on-one battle against the Tang army, the Tubo people did not have a chance of winning, and the Tang army was defeated miserably in Dafeichuan, which was four to one.
Or, the Tubo people do not pay attention to the gains and losses of one place and one place, they only need to attack everywhere, avoid the towns, focus on small places and weak defenses, and invade like fire
Almost at the same time, as the general of the forbidden army placed on the front line of Tubo by the imperial court, Feng Xiaobao found that he had a great choice, and the local officials could not control him, he only had to obey Luoyang's orders, but Luoyang was a general, and the military order was not granted, and he was allowed the right to act cheaply!
Because of the granting of this right, there were not many disputes in the imperial court, some people thought that he should go to help the Western Regions, some people thought that he should go to Jiannan Province (Sichuan, Yunnan and other places) to assist in the defense, and even more, Prime Minister Lai Heng thought that Feng Xiaobao had been operating in the frontier for a long time, with a high position and power, and was not subject to the jurisdiction of the government.
And the bachelor of the north gate of Wu mm naturally knew where Feng Xiaobao came from, and thought that Feng Xiaobao had a fairly clear understanding of Tubo, and it was always written on the fold "Tubo will be destroyed!" His views have been proven to be incomparably accurate.
For such generals, it is advisable to let them do whatever they want, so as to ensure that "Tibet will be destroyed!" ”
The queen supported the latter view, and ordered Feng Xiaobao to act cheaply, and three paths were left to his choice!
The first is to attack from the Hexi Road, cross the West Sea, and then enter the Dafei River, and do the thing of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao";
the second is to assist in the defense of the Western Regions;
the third is to assist in the defense of the sword south road;
Sure enough, there was someone in the court who supported Feng Xiaobao to feel happy, but he also felt pressure... He can't let down the people who care about him.
"What should we choose?" Feng Xiaobao held the edict in his hand and sat in the conference room on the top of the fortress of the Huangshui Bridge to ask his civil and military staff.
Everyone agreed that they couldn't do the thing of "encircling Wei to save Zhao", wouldn't that provoke fire? If the Tubo people are angered, do you want the local foundation?
Hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland were finally made, and together with various industries that began to take shape, everyone shared the money and made a lot of money.
The soldiers and fires together, the production stopped, and the coppers flew away with wings.
Of course, there is no need to be so pessimistic, if the Tubo people arrive, our side is fighting on the inside line, and the completion of the Tongtian Bridge is imminent, and the imperial court reinforcements will come in a steady stream, and the Tubo people will have to fight.
The problem lies in Feng Xiaobao's decision!
This birdman often says that the Tubo people will not come to attack Tonghuang County, he obviously has cement, Leng is unwilling to make Tonghuang County a fortress, otherwise there will be one more choice to build fortresses and fortresses everywhere, and wait for work, everyone fights with the Tubo people at the door of their homes, how easy it is!
Don't dare to try, in case the Tubo people really go crazy to attack.
Cut our wheat, take away our livestock, and don't do it!
"The Western Regions are vast, which is conducive to the movement of our cavalry, but it is difficult to supply; Jiannan Road is blocked by mountains and rivers, and the road is not easy, but there are military supplies, which is for their benefit! "Chief of Staff Jing Dong Lingchun talks about gains and losses from the perspective of the army.
However, Cui Qianxun, who joined the army in the army, who heard the secrets and did not have much military knowledge, said with a vicious gaze: "The general only needs to decide the direction of action in the future!" ”
A word woke up the dreamer, Feng Xiaobao praised: "Good! ”
Yes, Yunnan and Sichuan are connected by mountains and rivers, even if it comes to the financial resources of Nuoduo and the ability of Nuoda to build roads in later generations, it is difficult to develop.
And occupying the Western Regions, all the way to the west, is the starting point of conquering the world!
With his meritorious advice, the waiter took ten gold coins and rewarded Cui Qianxun.
Feng Xiaobao likes gold coins, and he also likes to reward people with gold coins, and never spares money.
In the Tang Dynasty, copper coins and silk silk are hard currency, and the source of gold and silver is not easy, and the quantity is not much, which is deeply liked by people!
There is gold and silver, and as soon as it comes out, it is collected by people, and it is rarely circulated!
Feng Xiaobao reported to the imperial court that there were gold mines in Laizhou (located in the Zhaoyuan and Longkou areas of Shandong), and the imperial court issued an edict to freeze all land transfers in Laizhou and develop gold mines in Laizhou.
But in other parts of Laizhou, such as "Yantai" (Dengzhou), the wealthy families of the Tang Dynasty took advantage of the lack of a land freeze order to go around in search of gold mines!
Five of the top ten gold mines in the later dynasties were in the Denglai area, although the big head was taken to the imperial court, there were still a lot of small gains.
Find the veins, smelt the gold, get the gold bars, and mint them into gold coins.
The Tang Dynasty is not allowed to mint money privately, but the families mint gold coins mostly for their own use (not enough for their own use), and less for circulation, and the court is only open and closed.
Feng Xiaobao also joined a small share from it, so his gold coins were never short (of course, not much), and they were rewarded with them, which was very popular with his subordinates!
Seeing that Cui Qianxun was rewarded by the general, Fan Wuxian and Jing Dongling glanced at each other and secretly exchanged glances.
Civil officials are really hateful, they don't need to see blood with swords, they don't work hard, they have a mouth, and they get rich rewards, which really makes the soldiers and men angry!
……
Since he was preparing to fight in the Western Regions, Feng Xiaobao mobilized four cavalry from Zhechong Mansion, namely two regular soldiers (Fan Wuxian and Yang Chengxian), two auxiliary soldiers, plus half of the mountain special forces Zhichong Mansion and two two infantry Zhichong Mansions, a total of more than 8,000 people, escorted a large number of military supplies to Shazhou, and then from Shazhou (leaving infantry) to Puchanghai (Lop Nur) (leaving auxiliary soldiers in Zhichong Mansion).
From Yumen to Lop Nur is a 600-mile no-man's land, fortunately, the environment has not completely deteriorated at that time, and there are still a few oases of water sources, which are the best choice in the desert.
There are not many water sources, more than 5,000 people are barely enough, and tens of thousands of brigades are difficult to support.
"In the dispute between us and the Tibetans in the Western Regions, we mostly use the strategy of advancing and retreating, and fighting quickly and resolving quickly; Second, we will borrow the joint forces of the local people, even if they can't help us fight, the baggage is still very useful! ”
"Isn't it true that the countries of the Western Regions have good relations with each other, and the grass on the wall?" Yang Chengxian scoffed.
"Yes!" Wang Xiaojie shook his head and said: "If you don't do this, we have to do everything ourselves, which is always inappropriate!" ”
Nearly 5,000 cavalry in the Tang army there is Shazhou Lieutenant Wang Xiaojie, these years of war, he also promoted, and Feng Xiaobao has a friendship, heard that Feng Xiaobao wants to enter the Western Regions, so he volunteered, participated in one, and went to the four towns of the Western Regions to fight.
"I wonder if the general has a long-term solution?" He took Feng Xiaobao to the army!
It's not bad to be promoted to Wang Xiaojie quickly, but compared to Feng Xiaobao, it's really a big gap!
Naturally, he was not very convinced, he threw out the question, and everyone listened attentively.
"When the matter of Tibet is resolved, immigrate to the Western Regions, change the local ethnic structure, and control the Western Regions forever!" Feng Xiaobao understated it.
Want to take the labor test? There are a lot of solutions to this kind of problem on the Internet in the future!
This is a necessary strategy, and everyone showed thoughtful expressions.
"Let's go!"
Arriving at Puchanghai, the army traveled up the Tarim River to find the Tubo people to fight! (To be continued.) )
