Chapter 871: Han Zilu, Dong Guo Qian
"When the general heard that Shangqing had attacked Qi, he immediately sent an army to the front line, and trekked two hundred miles from Yewang to Guantao, but he did not encounter the Qi army, but only intercepted a few Di who wanted to cross the river to Qi State. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt this time, Zhao Qi made peace, and when the war ended, the head of the family ordered us to return to the west. According to the agreement, the Zhao army returned from Hebei, and the Korean army returned from Henan, and the Wei Guo provided food and garrisons, but when they arrived at the Jin-Zheng border, they were attacked by the Nanyan Zheng people with arrows, and suffered dozens of casualties ......"
"Wait." Zhao Wuxian frowned, and said to this Han disciple named Han Anping: "The Han army should have crossed the river from Jianjin, why did it run to the Jin-Zheng border further south? ”
"This ...... After leaving Lioyan City, we encountered a heavy fog and couldn't tell the direction, so we didn't go southwest, but ...... southeast."
Are you kidding me!? Zhao Wuxian was speechless for Han's lies, Liyan City was by the big river, and the blind could hear the sound of the mighty water, and more than 10,000 people were deaf? How did they collectively go in a southeasterly direction away from the riverbank? Besides, Nanyan is half a day's walk away from Liyan City.
Or rather, the destination of the South Korean army was originally there......
"And yet?"
Han Anping's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said: "Then we strayed into the territory of Zheng State, and were suddenly shot by Zheng Jun, killing and wounding dozens of people, Shangqing, you see my ...... injury."
Han Anping, who has outstanding acting skills, shows his wounds that have not yet healed, but Zhao Wuxian is not even interested in taking a look, and blows with him.
After that, the Han army sent people over to ask the Zheng people to stop the attack, but the Zheng people did not comply, and they spoke ill of each other and transferred a large army to attack. The Han army had no choice but to launch a counterattack, and now it has defeated Nanyan and confronted the Zheng army in Sour Zao. The general of the army thinks that the Zheng people occupy the territory of the Jin State, and they are so arrogant, so they have to teach a lesson or two, and today I specially asked me to present this matter to Shangqing, and ask Shangqing to preside over justice for the Han family! ”
Zhao Wuxian almost didn't roll his eyes, what kind of bullshit justice is he presiding, this Han clan used the same excuse as the Zhao clan to attack the river, didn't he just want to attack Zheng Guo in advance?
"You go down to recuperate first, and if you have a decision, I will naturally notify you."
After Han Anping limped down, Zhao Wuxian felt a little headache, Han's appearance was indeed a bit unexpected to him, you know, his impression of Han Hu was steady and unwilling to take risks, but today he was playing rich and dangerous......
This is different, Zhao Wuxian has a feeling that there is a huge plan hidden here, which determines the future plan of the Han family!
He immediately summoned the staff and retainers in Julu, Yang Yin, Xiang Lu and others to discuss.
"The Han clan is ignoring Shangqing's plan, and blatantly violating it, Shangqing's order cannot be shaken, and the Han clan will be ordered to withdraw troops!" Xiang Lu looked a little angry, he stayed by Zhao Wuxian's side for a long time, he was used to the princes and doctors obeying the Zhao family.
"But the war has expanded, Zheng and Han are facing each other on the border, each with more than 10,000 people, and the matter has risen to the level of conflict between the two countries...... if you blindly order Han to evacuate, I am afraid that it will not be good for the prestige of the ruling party Yang Yin has other worries.
"That is also a match for the Han family's intention, dragging the Zhao family into the war against Zheng Guo, and delaying this year's Xia Yunqiu harvest."
Everyone was arguing, and Zhao Wuxian was also pondering, but at this moment, a retainer in deep clothes and wide sleeves stood up and said in the Jin State dialect with a Zheng Di accent: "Listening to the words of the second and third sons, they more or less think that Han's attack on Zheng will disrupt Zhao's plan, and it should be stopped, at least it can't be supported, but in Yu Chen's opinion, allowing Han to fight Zheng is beneficial and harmless to Zhao!" ”
……
It was Ren Zhang, a disciple of Gubu Ziqing, a follower of Lao Tzu, and a representative of Taoism in Zhao Wuxian's forces.
Zhao Wuxian still remembered that when Ren Zhang met him for the first time, he talked about the way to recuperate and recuperate, and he adopted some of them, but he also felt that this person was too young and young to be awarded a heavy responsibility, so he sent him to the grassroots level of Yecheng for two years. Now Ren Zhang is much more mature than he was then, and today's words made Zhao Wuxian's eyes shine.
He pointed to Ren Zhang and encouraged: "Go on, keep talking." ”
Ren Zhang glanced at the people in the room, and said slowly: "Lao Tzu once said that if you want to go, you will fix it. If you want to take it, you will give it. To perish it, you must first learn it, and so it should be today. ”
Zhao Wuxian said: "You mean, I should first make an appearance of supporting the Han clan in this matter?" ”
Ren Zhang said: "However, the Han clan has been eager to attack Zheng for a long time, and this time he took the initiative to ask for the Zhao clan to crusade against the Qi State, but on the way back, he raided the Zheng State and provoked a dispute between the two countries. Now Shangqing wants the Han clan to stop in the name of governance, if they are unwilling, the relationship between Zhao and Han will be broken and ossified, and Shangqing, as the ruling party, will order Han Wei to exist in name only, and even the follow-up plan cannot be implemented. ”
Xiang Lu sneered: "Does the Han clan dare to disobey?" ”
Ren Zhang turned to him: "Even if you stop, the Han clan will definitely resent the Zhao clan, but Zheng Guo will not necessarily be grateful to Shangqing, what good is it for the Zhao clan to do this?" ”
"Fighting Zheng is not an overnight thing, the Zhao clan has just finished fighting the Qi State, although the loss is not big, but the mobilized labor is not a lot, if it is involved in the war again, wouldn't it be ......"
"That's why we have to indulge the Han family to fight, and the Zhao family can shout in the rear to help, but not delay the farming time, and then decide whether to interfere when the spring plowing is completely over and the farming is slack. In this case, the Han family will be grateful to Shangqing, and even if the Wei family is dissatisfied, they will also put their resentment on the Han family. ”
Ren Zhang's proposal was approved by Zhao Wuxian, who did not respond to Han's attack on the eastern part of Zheng State, did not support or oppose it, and just let Han Hu "do it himself".
But Han Hu didn't have anything to do with himself, after Zhao Wuxian returned to Yecheng, he heard that the Han clan had expanded the war, and after attracting the main force of Zheng Guo with a single army in the east, Duan Gui personally commanded thousands of people, crossed the river from Zhou County, and raided Zheng Guo Chenggao on the other bank! He also asked Zhao to let the Han soldiers who had been assembled one after another go to Chengzhou through Mengjin and attack Chenggao around his back.
"Cheng Gao, Tiger Prison Pass ......" Zhao Wuxian is no longer ignorant, he has also heard of the confrontation between Chu and Han against Cheng Gao, heard of the Battle of Lu Bu in the Tiger Prison Pass, and heard of the Battle of Li Shimin Tiger Pass.
He almost saw the purpose of Han's strategy this time, taking Cheng Gao, the west could coerce the Son of Heaven, and the east could encroach on Zheng Guo and take Cheng Gao, which was like hitting Zheng Guo's seven inches, and also choking Cheng Zhou's throat, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
He smelled Duan Gui's tricks from it, this ugly-looking little man really made a trick, it was a stroke of genius!
Among the staff and retainers, the proposal to stop the Han clan from attacking Zheng was noisy, but only one person still insisted, and he thought that the Zhao clan should acquiesce to the matter.
"Tell me your reasoning." This time, Zhao Wuxian summoned Ren Zhang alone.
Ren Zhang said: "Before that, can the minister ask one thing?" ”
"But it doesn't hurt to ask."
Ren Zhang lowered his voice, "Shangqing's plan for Han Wei, although it seems to be a win-win situation for the three families, but in fact, it is a strategy to drive the wolf and devour the tiger and kill people with a knife!" ”
……
"You ......"
Zhao Wuxian looked at Ren Zhang for a long time, and with a slight wave of his hand, there were guards to take him down and make this person disappear.
But he still nodded, "Yes, it was Zhang Mengtan, who was in the Lu Kingdom, who offered me a strategy." ”
Help Han attack Zheng, help Wei attack Qin, the three win-win, expand the living space together, what a beautiful prospect...... In fact, they are all smoke bombs released for the purpose of tired Han, tired Wei, tired Qin, tired Zheng, and finally let the Zhao family dominate the Jin Kingdom, although it looks sweet and charming, but it is also poisonous, and it is a chronic poison that overturns the four opponents at once.
But Zhao Wuxian's original plan was to first Qin and then Zheng, because he was worried that Zheng, who was sensitive to geography too early, would cause the Chu State to go north, or even the Song State would be involved, and the Zheng State would collapse too quickly, which would not be conducive to the overall situation.
Therefore, although Han's move did not conflict with the big strategy, it also made him a little worried.
Besides, if Cheng Gao is really captured by the Han family, it will not be beneficial to the Zhao family in the long run......
Ren Zhang said: "Zhang Zizhen is worthy of being the Zhao family's think tank, but the minister thinks that it doesn't hurt to let the Han family get Chenggao." ”
"Oh? Chenggao is a battleground for soldiers, and if the Zhao family can't get it, how can they let their neighbors seize it? ”
Ren Zhang said with a smile: "It is precisely because of the urgency that Han Zheng can fight for this." Listen to me tell me a story. Han Zilu is the fastest dog in the world, and Dong Guo Qian is the most cunning hare in the world. Han Zilu chased Dong Guo Qian, chased around the mountain three times in succession, ran over the mountain five times, the rabbit in front was exhausted, and the dog in the back was also exhausted, everyone couldn't run, and they fell to the ground motionless. An old Tian father saw it and picked them up without much effort. ”
"In the same way, Han Zheng's strength is comparable, relying on Han himself alone, it is a few points to attack Cheng Gao, but it is impossible to capture Shangluo and eliminate Zheng Guo at one time. If Han and Zheng were unable to hold each other because of Chenggao, after a few years, the soldiers and people on both sides would be exhausted, and the Zhao family, who kept peace east of Taihang and recuperated, would be able to reap the benefits of the farmers. Therefore, Han's risky move seems exquisite, but it is actually ...... Hehe, a little self-conscious. As Lao Tzu said, blessings and misfortunes lurk, misfortunes and blessings rely on, Cheng Gao may be just a poisonous bait that kills them! ”
"As for the so-called geographical advantage, with Zheng Guo's continuous attack, after the Han clan captured Chenggao, I am afraid that there is no energy to build a strong city, even if it is repaired, the Zhao clan has a good weapon trebuchet and ballista, why is the city not keen!?"
"Good ......" Zhao Wuxian closed his eyes and thought slightly, and opened his eyes again, Zhang Meng talked about the genius of the sky, and proposed a plan to kill four birds with one stone, not many people know, most of the retainers and countrymen only thought that the Zhao family really wanted to cut down Qin and Zheng, and restore the glory of the Jin Kingdom.
But Ren Zhang, who didn't know about it, was able to guess it, and he could analyze this plan thoroughly, and further proposed that the Zhao family should appropriately let the Han family bite off the flesh on Zheng Guo's body, causing the Zheng people to be afraid, and making the fire between the two sides more fierce in the future.
However, in this Han-Zheng conflict, the Zhao clan must control the scene, neither let the two sides fight too violently and turn into a big war that will prematurely pull the Zhao clan into the quagmire of war, nor can the Han clan have too much advantage and win too easily......
After all, it seems that this time the Han clan has exhausted its organs, and it is determined to win.
But when Zhao Wuxian arrived at Chaoge and planned to observe the battle nearby, his worries were dispelled.
Duan Gui is a good hand at making plans, and when he fights, he is a layman who blindly commands an insider. In mid-March, the ROK army crossed the river to attack Chenggao, and the vanguard actually lost the battle, ending the first offensive in disgrace, making the generals under Zhao Wuxian laugh off their big teeth......
