Chapter 350: Harboring Evil Intentions
readx;
"Haha, Dongyang is really a wonderful idea!" Wang Shao, who was in Gyeongju, was full of praise after seeing the sand table. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "This is a good thing, the mountains and rivers in the table are unobstructed, very intuitive, very clear!" ”
Wang Shao, who has studied a lot of military affairs and intends to develop in this field, can see the role and value of the sand table at a glance. The march and the command of the battle are too important and very practical.
Especially in places like the northwest, the terrain is rugged, the mountains and rivers are messy, and it is difficult to record it clearly and clearly with the brain. As for the maps, Wang Shao was too aware of the level of detail of their military maps, which were really limited. Especially the Xihe and Tubo sides, since the end of the Tang Dynasty, they have cut off contact with the Central Plains, and there is too little information. It was Wang Shao who collected information and prepared for a long time, but the progress was very slow.
In particular, the forces in the northwest are intricately intertwined, and they will change in a short period of time, where is the map so fast.
If only there was a sand table, this thing only needs to adjust the label on it, change a few small flags of different colors, and everything will be in order. The most rare thing is that the sand table shows that the terrain is three-dimensional, which is more intuitive.
Just by looking at the map, you only know that there is a mountain and a river, and there is always a gap in your imagination. The sand table is clear at a glance, and the positioning is more accurate, so as not to make mistakes due to misunderstandings.
All in all, it's definitely a good thing!
Wang Shao was already thinking about it, and the official asked him to collect information about Tubo and prepare to fight against Tubo in the future and recover the Xihe River. However, the Song Dynasty had limited knowledge of the situation there.
Lin Zhao's sand table gave him an idea, and it seemed that he would have to pay attention to the mountains and rivers over there in the future. Especially for the scouts to sneak in early and scout the terrain. Make an elaborate sandbox. I think I'll be able to use it sooner or later.
Wang Shao just thought so. It is not known what the final result will be. Lin Zhao didn't know that he had no intention of inserting willows, and he actually laid a foreshadowing for the Xihe war, a foreshadowing of victory. He didn't think about it carefully, on the other side of the Xihe River, Lin Zhao may have inadvertently planted more than one foreshadowing.
The turning point of history is therefore a little more variable, for the Great Song Dynasty, for this era. And what will it mean......
"Dongyang is saying that he will send this thing to Han Xuanfu's envoy?" Wang Shao asked the captain who came from Dashun City in a low voice, it stands to reason that such a good thing must be handed over to Han Jiang, the commander of the Northwest War, and he is the most practical there. Of course, it is best to go to the imperial court and promote it in the whole Song army.
"Commander Lin said that Han Xuanfu will definitely send it there. But before that, it's best to send it to Yanzhou first and ask Lord Shen Kuo over there to improve it. The captain conveyed Lin Zhao's opinion as it was.
Wang Shao was surprised and said: "Manager Yanzhou joins the army Shen Kuo? ”
"Yes!" The captain said: "Commander Lin said, and today's sand table is still very non-standard. Master Shen Kuo is good at geography. It can definitely be perfected. ”
"Good!" Wang Shao didn't know much about Shen Kuo, but he thought. Since it is Lin Zhao's personal candidate, it must not be wrong.
Wang Shao had just sent the sand table to Yanzhou, and he wanted Lin Zhao to come to Gyeongju to communicate some military opinions. Wang Zhizhou always felt that Lin Zhao was deeply hidden, and there must be many more unexpected things. Whether it is the current battle of Western Xia, or the future battle against Tibet, it will be of great benefit.
But he didn't want to be at this time, he received news that the Western Xia army was coming to attack and stormed Dashun City.
Li Fugui's strategy of "borrowing a knife to kill" succeeded, and Liang Yibu couldn't hold back the hatred and expectation in his heart, and immediately led the army straight to Dashun City.
Since Lin Zhao clearly sent troops to counterattack and dispatched troops to the border, Western Xia was temporarily silent for a while. On the one hand, they were waiting for the reaction of the Song army, and on the other hand, because their sneak attack did not work. The information provided by Li Fugui made them attack when the Song army was caught off guard, and now that the Song army has taken precautions, the success rate has naturally dropped a lot.
Western Xia will not withdraw their troops easily, and will eventually attack again. A lot of people are predicting where their next point of attack will be, but unfortunately there is no conclusive information at all. So much so that the Song troops on the border were all waiting for the day, guarding carefully, and even a little nervous.
Now it can finally be determined that the breakthrough point of Western Xia is Gyeongju, specifically Dashun City.
For many, it may be possible to breathe a sigh of relief for a while, but for the entire Northwest Frontier, it is a big problem.
Xixia is here, and the momentum is really huge.
Liang Yiburi, the prime minister of the Western Xia state, personally led an army of 50,000 and directly rushed to Dashun City. Most of them were the elite of Western Xia, and the small Dashun City guards were originally only 3,000, but after the last bloody incident, Wang Shao increased his troops to 5,000.
5,000 people, though the number is 2,000 more. But what they had to face was a tenfold Western Xia army, and they still felt a little bit of a drop in the bucket. Dashun City is suddenly like some flat boats floating on the sea surface of a storm, with the wind and waves constantly undulating, very dangerous, looking at it makes people a little worried.
At present, the strength of Western Xia is 50,000 people, what about the future? The leader of the troops was Liang Yiburi, who was the minister of state and uncle of the country, and his status and influence in Western Xia were self-evident, and the increase in troops was only a matter of an overnight matter. The pressure on Dashun City will be even greater, and the situation will be even more critical.
But when the news reached Gyeongju, Wang Shao was not as anxious as he imagined, and he didn't even have a look of surprise on his face, as if everything was expected. Relatively speaking, he was very calm. didn't even immediately rush to mobilize the army to the rescue, Wang Zhizhou seemed to have a lot of confidence in Lin Zhao and Jing Sili in Dashun City,
"Dongyang, Sili, you have to hold on!" Wang Shao looked at the direction where Dashun City was located and sighed lightly, then turned around and wrote hard, and then stamped the seal letter and fire paint seal, and then sent his cronies and ordered: "Hurry up, immediately send Han Xuanfu envoy!" ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Liang Yi buried troops in Dashun City, which quickly attracted the attention of all parties, and even had a bit of an uproar.
In Xingqing Mansion, Empress Dowager Liang shook her head again and again when she heard the news.
She is the Empress Dowager of Western Xia, the current number one real power person, and she knows all the news best. She almost immediately knew who there was in Dashun City, and it was self-evident who Liang Yi was going to.
Empress Dowager Liang was a little helpless, why was her younger brother still so reckless? Isn't the previous lesson enough? Why is it still so unremembered? When will he grow up? Empress Dowager Liang was really distressed, she lacked a good helper around her, and it was not easy for orphans and widows to gain a firm foothold.
To be honest, Empress Dowager Liang was a little worried.
This time she sent troops to attack the Song Dynasty, and the Empress Dowager Liang gave Liang Yi a lot of power and convenience, hoping that he could act cheaply and be less restrained. You can make great achievements in this battle, wash away the previous shame, and re-establish your status and prestige.
Unexpectedly, Liang Yi's breakthrough point was still chosen in Gyeongju and Dashun City.
Obviously, his target was Lin Zhao, the young man of the Great Song Dynasty who had humiliated him deeply. In this way, the communiqué is a personal vendetta, and maybe there will be party nobles who will immediately jump out and question it!
Has the hatred in my brother's heart reached this level? Empress Dowager Liang was a little incomprehensible. Is it because his younger brother is too narrow-minded, or is this Lin Zhao too shameful for him......
Inadvertently, Empress Dowager Liang suddenly became a little curious, what kind of young man can make Liang Yi bury such a grudge? What's so special about it?
It's a pity that I can't see the Xingqing Mansion I am in, in the Xixia Palace. Unless it is a royal expedition and personally goes to the battlefield on the border. But at the moment, the party nobles have not yet been fully submissive, and the Empress Dowager Liang does not dare to leave the capital easily.
Now I can only hope that my younger brother will take it easy, and don't do anything again, especially if he falls short because of recklessness, or even in a major failure. In that case, the pressure on yourself will be great. It is not easy to keep his younger brother and status, as well as the splendid scenery of the Liang family.
Just when Empress Dowager Liang was worried, Liang Yibury sent her a letter. explained the reason for his attack on Dashun City, Liang Yibury did not hide his desire to take revenge and be ashamed. This can't be hidden from his queen sister at all, and there is no need at all.
At the same time, Liang Yizhu expounded the significance of Gyeongju and Daeshun City, and the impact of a series of results after the attack, and made his strategic intentions clear. After reading it, Empress Dowager Liang felt a lot more comfortable, it turned out that her younger brother also had such considerations, at least not completely reckless.
Empress Dowager Liang was relieved a lot, but she also despised Liang Yi's character of retribution.
But fortunately, Empress Dowager Liang felt that it was still necessary to take precautions. What the younger brother said in his heart was that he needed to appease Hehuang and Tubo to avoid Tubo from participating in the war. If at this time, Tubo stabbed them in the back, the consequences would be really unimaginable. What Western Xia needed was not that Tubo was biased towards his side, but only needed to remain neutral.
In any case, there is a marriage contract between the princess of Jinshan in Western Xia and the prince of Tubo, Lin Qibi. With this layer of in-law relationship, it is much easier to communicate!
At the same time, Empress Dowager Liang felt that since the Western Xia was launching an all-out war against the Song Dynasty, how could it be enough to just attack Dashun City? Elsewhere there must be a way.
Lin Zhao! I don't know why Empress Dowager Liang remembered this name again. Interesting young man, Empress Dowager Liang became more and more curious, and involuntarily flipped through Lin Zhao's information.
Empress Dowager Liang didn't care about how powerful Lin Zhao's background was, nor did she sigh that this guy was very happy. But I saw it at a glance: a wife is the daughter of the Fuzhou Folding Family, and she is the little sister of the Fuzhou Zhizhou Zhizhou Zhikexing!
The son-in-law of the Fuzhou family? Empress Dowager Liang's eyebrows moved, and under that glamorous appearance, it seemed that she had begun to harbor evil intentions again! (To be continued.) )
