Chapter 366: Unpredictable

Yang Ke thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "If Li Xiong dies of illness, Your Majesty will send troops to attack Shu, and you will definitely be able to wipe out Chengguo smoothly." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but with all due respect, it won't be long before Shu will make another uproar, which will take a lot of trouble. ”

Gao Yue was surprised: "Now that the country is destroyed, what chaos is there left?" Xiangguo's words puzzled me. ”

"Your Majesty. The ancient system said that etiquette does not cut down mourning, saying that this is a manifestation of immorality and unkindness. Looking at it now, although there is a pedantic side to him, it is undeniable that it still contains a deep truth. When the father of the country is lost, the neighbors not only do not sympathize with the mourning, but come to the gravel to mourn, which will cause disgust and anger among the people there. Therefore, even if the use of superior force can be subdued for a while, it is only temporary, and the boiling of public resentment and suspicion will lead to chaos, and the royal family of the fallen country will also take the opportunity to rebel and stand on its own, thus making the situation out of control. ”

Yang Ke shook his head again and said: "Therefore, for the sake of Your Majesty's long-term peace and stability in the world, although the mourning will inevitably get Bashu, it will also lose the hearts of the people here. ”

Gao Yue suddenly couldn't help but clasp his hands and said: "I tossed and turned all night, and it was difficult to make a decision in the game, but Xiangguo only said a few words, and he solved the great confusion. Good! If Li Xiong dies of illness, I will send a good life to comfort and sacrifice. ”

Han Yong also answered: "Xie Ai is now in the south, dedicated to attacking Jingzhou, and almost goes all out. If he suddenly stops halfway and attacks Chengguo, I am afraid that it will disrupt his military deployment plan, and it is not appropriate. ”

Gao Yue decided on a matter in his heart, and immediately felt a little comfortable, so he stopped mentioning the matter of Shudi, and said: "Then, the important thing at the moment is still in the east. You see, since Zhao Guoshihu came to power, our country has become more tense with him. The outbreak of war is inevitable, the reason why he hasn't done it yet, is just that he is busy suppressing the opposition forces, and once he pulls out his hand, according to Shi Hu's tyrannical nature, he will definitely come to bite people. So I thought, it's better to strike first. ”

Han Yong said: "This point, the minister agrees very much. Shi Hu is a bloodthirsty maniac who is desperate for military force, and it is said that even Shi Le's death was directly caused by him. When this kind of person becomes a master, he will inevitably want to trample the whole world under his feet. Internally, Shi Lang is also regarded as the famous king of the Zhao family, and he has made meritorious deeds, but he will kill him when he says he will kill him, didn't Shi Kan and Shi Sheng then be forced to rebel? Externally, Shi Hu is also very jealous of my Daqin, and sooner or later he will come to me to do something. ”

Yang Ke smiled and said, "When it comes to military strategy, this is Han Sikong's specialty. The minister had no choice but to silence himself for the time being and listen. ”

Han Yong also said a few words of humility, and then went straight to the topic and said: "Ministers, and now the pseudo-Zhao and Zhou Mu Shikan are not only rebelling against Shihu, but also unwilling to belong to our country, it is just hanging alone." If our army wants to pass through the eastern part of the country, it is better to go straight up from Puban and merge with the state, break the Huguan Pass, level the party, enter Jinyang, and then ride with Shengzhou Huche, drive south, and then the main army will go straight to Xiangguo, the capital of Zhao, and at the same time, it can be divided into divisions to go to Leye City, cutting off its way to flee south. If it goes well, the land of Hebei can be settled. ”

Gao Yue pondered, "...... Uh-huh, uh-huh. Shikan is independent of Jinyang, all sides are enemies, once our army enters the state, he has no reinforcements outside, there is anxiety inside, there is no reason to be undefeated. At that time, let Shi Sheng persuade him more, and the state will soon be occupied by me. But I estimate that Shi Hu will never sit idly by, I am afraid that as soon as our army breaks through the kettle pass, he will go out of the nest. ”

Han Yong obviously had a plan, and immediately continued: "If he wants to send troops, it is nothing more than two ways: north and south. As for the south road, Shihu can only come from Puyang from the plain, and then come through Chen Liudong. But now Shi Sheng has descended to me, stationed in Xingyang, Shi Sheng is also known as a general, and now there is our army as a backup, when he meets Shi Hu, it must be an enemy who is very red, without His Majesty's supervision, Shi Sheng himself will fight to the death with Shi Hu. He drove for our army and stopped Shi Hu's footsteps, and our army was so big again, how could Shi Hu get a bargain? ”

"If you talk about the North Road, Shi Hu should compete with our army to merge the state, then most likely from Changshan to Jinyang. In this way, he could make Shengzhou Hu Che ride south and attack his Zhongshan. In this way, his road back to the east will be cut off, and Shi Hu is a lone army in Bingzhou, not to mention that our army has a great chance of winning, the minister thinks, just Shi Kan, and we still want Shi Hu's life. ”

Han Yong bowed, and finally said, "Of course." This is just a solitary speculation based on normal circumstances. It is possible that Shi Hu has any unexpected moves, and it is not known, but at the moment, the Saibei is ripe, and the back is worry-free, the so-called soldiers are full of food, he Shi Hu is from the country, and our army is nothing more than to wait for work, and the improvisation is that there is His Majesty heroic and sage, and there are thousands of soldiers who are brave and brave with their lives, and Shi Hu is crazy, what is there to fear? ”

The autumn morning light spills in through the window lattice, shining brightly on the face, making people feel particularly uplifted.

In October of the first year of the Great Qin Tiansheng, the Qin army was led by Yang Tao, the general of the Fu army, with 40,000 troops, suddenly entered the state and quickly broke through the Huguan, with sharp soldiers; In the Central Plains, Emperor Gao Yue ordered Hedong Wang Shisheng to lead his headquarters with more than 10,000 men and horses, from Xingyang to attack Yanzhou Puyang, intending to choke Shihu's southward road, and at the same time let the metropolitan governor Han Yong take full charge of the military and dispatch and command in Luoyang.

Shikan in Bingzhou was suddenly attacked by the Qin army, and he also faced the battle, but he was all defeated, and he couldn't help but be frightened and sad, and he didn't know what to do. He hated Shi Hu to the core, and he was at both ends of Gao Yue, and the current battle was unfavorable, and there was no way to escape, and he couldn't even ask for half a reinforcement, so he was trapped in Jinyang for a while, and he didn't know what to do. At this time, Shi Sheng's letter of persuasion was sent to him again, and he was persuaded to know the current affairs as soon as possible, and never to resist stubbornly and get the jade burned. Shi Kan didn't answer, but in fact, his heart shook violently.

Let's talk about the Luoyang Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Han Yong has just received the latest information from the front. Emperor Zhao Shihu finally took action. It is reported that he personally led an army of 50,000 from Xiangguo, but neither marched in the direction of Jinyang nor to Puyang. The scout was very sure in the military newspaper that he saw the army of Zhao going straight to Chaoge.

Han Yong thought for a moment, then stood up and walked to the topographic map, silently watching, still not grasping the essentials. If you go south to Chenliu, you can also reach Chenliu, but if Shi Hu goes to Chenliu, why don't you pass by Puyang smoothly, and have to trek through the mountains and rivers to go south to Chaoge? And Chaoge to the west, you can enter the Jiachuan of Bingzhou, but Jiachuan is a small city, and the north of Jiachuan is Huguan, now Huguan has long been strictly guarded by the Qin army, the road to the west is far away, you can enter Hedong County, and Hedong has Xiazhou to protect He Cheng's elite troops garrisoned. So even if Shi Hu gets Jiachuan, it really doesn't make sense.

So, what did Shi Hu do when he went to Chaoge? In the current situation, it is impossible for him not to know that the Qin army is gaining momentum, and the Zhao army must have a big victory to stimulate morale and boost morale, and Shi Hu is violent by nature, how can he not fight back and blindly dodge? And Shi Hu was also a veteran general who had been in battle for a long time in the past, he avoided the battlefields of Bingzhou and Yanzhou, and ran alone to the unattended court, which is really paradoxical. At this juncture, why go to the song!

Han Yong stared blankly at the map. After figuring out Shi Hu's movements, but not his intentions, Han Yong's heart became more and more bottomless, and he suddenly had a very uneasy feeling and grabbed his heart. The unknown is terrible and deadly. When gambling, one son makes a mistake and loses the whole game, but there is still the advantage of starting again; If you don't understand the opponent's routine and can't take any effective measures to deal with it, the opponent may suddenly pierce your heart with a sword, and the person is dead, can you still ask for another game?

Feeling more and more that something was wrong, Han Yong took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, and observe and deduce from the overall situation. When he was anxious and worried, the general came in and reported: "Report to the governor!" The latest battle report in the south! General Xie's 30,000 troops have crossed Zhangshui and are about to arrive in Maicheng, and General Peng's 10,000 troops have captured Xiling. However, Sima Cheng's department in Xiangzhou left Changsha and went north, and when the information was sent, Sima Cheng's department had already sailed in Yunmengze, and there was a tendency to rescue Jiangling and make enemies with our army. ”

Han Yong snorted, indicating that he understood. The main military at the moment is, of course, the big war that is about to break out between the north and Shihu. As for the south, he is not worried, Xie Ai is already capable of excellence, it is more than enough to be in charge alone, and he is supplemented by the veteran Peng Jun, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and the crossbow army is complemented, these two have more than 40,000 elite soldiers, if they can't beat a mere Sima Cheng, Han Yong is willing to bet on his own head, and he doesn't believe that the Qin army will be defeated. Whether Jiangling can be captured, or when it can be captured, the only interference factor is whether Tao Kan will ignore the Jin court and make a desperate turn to help.

Han Yong waved his hand and asked the briefing department to go down. His attention remained on the large map he was looking up at in front of him. Suddenly, the words "crossing the water" and "boating" flashed in his mind, like an electric shock, Han Yong slammed his spirit, and his eyes suddenly fell on the southeast direction of Chaoge, a very inconspicuous small city in Ji County, his deep-set eyes widened!
