Chen Qiyu's Chinese military account.

The suppression of bandits is in full swing, and Chen Qiyu's power has almost reached subversion.

Commanding the military affairs of the five provinces, this is a rare situation, except for the war in the north when the war is tense, the imperial court will have such an arrangement, the rest of the time, it is impossible to imagine, although it is only the right squire of the military department, the rank of the third grade, but with the sword of Shang Fang given by the emperor, everyone must be respected, including the governor of the five provinces, and at the critical time, he must also obey his dispatch.

This is also because the emperor has made up his mind to exterminate the rogues.

Since the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the Liukou began to rise, and now it is eight years, the damage caused by the Liukou is huge, so that the expenses of the imperial court, stretched, but also indefinitely amplified the impact of the famine, Shaanxi Province, a lot of peasants, have joined the Liukou, fortunately, in these two years, the imperial court made up the military salary in time, and the mutiny of the sergeants has been greatly reduced.

Chen Qiyu knows that the emperor's focus is still on Houjin, and he has always believed that Liukou is just a disease of scabies, and Houjin is a big problem, since July last year, after Houjin captured Lushun, most of the time has passed, and there has been no action, so that the imperial court can ship the schedule, so this time to exterminate Liukou, the emperor is determined to win.

The only thing that is unpleasant is that there are some voices within the imperial court, what military expenditure is too large, what war achievements are not great, and so on.

Fortunately, by Chen Qiyu's side, there is a top strategist, this is the famous Zhang Pu.

When Zhang Pu came by self-recommendation, Chen Qiyu was a little strange, he also knew what happened before, it is said that Zhang Pu should recuperate at home, and get involved in the matter of exterminating the rogue. Isn't it self-inflicted?

With a half-believing attitude, Chen Qiyu accepted Zhang Pu, but he didn't expect Zhang Pu to really come up with some good ideas.

Especially in response to the gossip in the court, Zhang Pu suggested that he should not pay attention to it at all, and he would not be subject to the orders of the monarch outside. The ancient conquests are like this, what the emperor needs is victory, is to exterminate the rogues, if he can achieve a victory, the emperor is naturally happy, and will not care about those slanders, on the contrary, he is worried all the time, and even trembling. You can't devote yourself to the battle.

After listening to Zhang Pu's suggestion, Chen Qiyu felt a little relieved, after all, Zhang Pu was the leader of the scholars, and he also had a lot of influence in the imperial court. You can't let the rogues go, you can't let them go because they don't have their own jurisdiction. Sit back and relax, you must find a way to maximize the vitality of the killers.

The results of the battle are indeed good, five months have passed, and the Liukou have suffered a heavy blow and have been concentrated in Shaanxi.

At this time. Zhang Pu once again put forward a suggestion that he should seize such an opportunity to complete his work in one battle and completely defeat the rogues.

Of course, Zhang Pu is a scholar after all. I haven't really experienced conquest, I haven't been on the battlefield, and fighting is not as simple as it says, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, including the transfer of sergeants, etc., there are many things that need to be planned.

The preparations have almost been carried out, and Chen Qiyu dispatched 150,000 soldiers, including the guards of Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, and Huguang, and the vanguard troops, and slowly entered Shangjin.

At this time, he wanted to listen to Zhang Pu's advice again and see what kind of advice Zhang Pu had.

When Zhang Pu entered the tent of the Chinese army, Chen Qiyu was carefully looking at the map, which marked the place where the Liukou had gathered.

"My lord, I found it, I don't know what happened to Lu Dao."

"Mr. Zhang, please take a seat, this official invited you to come, I want to hear what other suggestions you have, the 150,000 soldiers gathered this time, within ten days, can all arrive in Shangjin, Yunyang Fuzhi Lu Xiangsheng, also with 10,000 soldiers, come over to meet the peace, the army has been spread, and the next step is to enter Shaanxi to exterminate the Liukou."

Zhang Pu nodded slightly, sat down, and was not polite.

"My lord, I still have that suggestion, to quickly enter Shaanxi, these two days, after careful consideration, the Liukou is mainly concentrated in Hannan, since the Lord has made up his mind, he can ask all the soldiers to not have to be completely concentrated in Shangjin, time is very precious, Liukou is good at rushing to fight, if the Lord has achieved the speed of the soldiers, he will definitely be able to surprise."

"Oh, what do you think the official should do?"

"The lord dispatched the sergeants of Shanxi, Shaanxi, Huguang and Henan, and asked the governors of the four provinces to fight together to encircle and suppress the Liukou, and the Lord led the troops, together with Lord Lu Xiangsheng, to lead the army to the west and enter Shaanxi, and the sergeants of the rest of the provinces, from different directions, entered Shaanxi, and the target was Hannan, so that time could be saved, and a lot of grain and grass could also be saved.

Chen Qiyu nodded again and again, this is a good idea, the sergeants of the four provinces, from different directions, enter Shaanxi, can save a lot of distance, as long as it is clear that they are concentrated in Hannan, while saving time, they can also save a lot of expenses, as for the governors of the provinces, they are only nominally responsible, and it is impossible to really participate in the campaign.

"Okay, your idea is good, this official immediately issued an order, asking the sergeants from all provinces to enter Shaanxi directly and concentrate in Hannan."

"My lord, there is another suggestion below, the sergeants of the provinces, when they enter Shaanxi, they may encounter a small group of rogues, or wanderers, they must not fall in love with the war, ignore the small group of people, and use the fastest speed to reach Hannan, you must know that there are 200,000 rogues in Hannan, and the momentum is huge, if you can't do your best, it will be difficult to achieve the greatest results."

Chen Qiyu's face was a little strange, and he didn't smile.

As the right attendant of the military department, the governor of the military affairs of the five provinces, but he can't do too much, the problems of the sergeants of the guard, he still knows a little, what kills the good and riskes the merits, what harasses the people, what robs money and food, what insults women, etc., there are no surprises, there have been such problems before, this time the sergeants from the four provinces were mobilized, and the people along the road were definitely going to suffer, plus all over Shaanxi, there were too many peasants who joined the Liukou, who knows if those peasants in Ludao were potential Liukou.

Especially those outcasts, who eventually joined the ranks of the rogues.

What Zhang Pu meant when he said this was actually to make his own request, and the sergeants still had to pay attention to discipline, not to harass the people along the way, and to go directly to Hannan.

Zhang Pu will not say such a request, although the sergeant of the guard, although he received the military salary, he can be deducted up and down, and the real one in the hands of the sergeant is pitiful, and he can't support his family at all, this expedition is a good opportunity to make a fortune, and he looted some money and grain along the way, and everyone is blind to it, and it is impossible to pursue it excessively.

Zhang Pu is not clear about these truths.

"Mr. Zhang's suggestion is very good, the official knows what he wants, this time to exterminate the rogue, Mr. Zhang follows the action of the official, I don't know what Mr. Lu Dao thinks."

"It is incumbent upon me to obey the instructions of my lords."

"Okay, okay, Mr. Zhang is going to prepare, and he will leave in the next two days."

Looking at Zhang Pu's back, Chen Qiyu sneered, this Zhang Pu is indeed a good person, but it's a pity that the smell of scholars is too strong, the battlefield is ruthless, where is there so much discipline to talk about.

However, Zhang Pu's suggestion that the sergeants from various provinces go directly to Hannan in Shaanxi Province is very good.

He immediately summoned the relevant officials and ordered the military order to be drafted immediately.

Zhang Pu slowly returned to the house.

Defecting to Chen Qiyu was his thoughtfulness, and the reason why Su Tiancheng had such great ability was that he mastered the Jiangning camp, and in this regard, he was born weak. It is unlikely to master the army, but you can always be familiar with the rules in the barracks, personally participate in the battle, know yourself and know that you will win all battles, only by constantly enriching yourself can you fight against Su Tiancheng, otherwise it will be a fiasco.

After thinking about these things clearly, after the first month, he went directly to Chen Qiyu.

Zhang Pu is a literati, and is the so-called leader of scholars, when he just arrived at the barracks, he was still a little uncomfortable, the barracks and the imperial court are different, there are not many people here to read, many general soldiers, generals, deputy generals, etc., there is not much culture, however, in order to adapt to the life of the barracks, Zhang Pu asked himself to make changes.

After a period of time, he has changed a little, but he is still a little out of place with the generals in the army.

Fortunately, Chen Qiyu was able to take his advice seriously.

During this period of time, Zhang Pu's main energy was all concentrated in the matter of exterminating the Liukou, he worked day and night, paying attention to the movements of the Liukou, collecting intelligence from all aspects, analyzing the operational laws of the Liukou, and after careful thinking and screening, he directly put forward opinions and suggestions to Chen Qiyu.

In a few months, the imperial army went to a lot of achievements, and the situation of the Liukou gradually became difficult, this time, almost all of the Liukou were concentrated in Shaanxi, which was the best opportunity.

If you put forward good opinions and suggestions, you can exterminate the rogue in one fell swoop, and this credit will be great.

Zhang Pu has seen some of the cruelty of the battle, but after all, he did not go into battle to kill the enemy, and his ideological understanding is still at the level of writing, he is very interesting, and it is impossible for him to go into battle to kill the enemy, which will only become a burden for everyone, so the emergency response on the battlefield, as well as how to grasp the battle situation, how to make adjustments and changes according to the actual situation, still can not put forward many suggestions.

Zhang Pu's main energy is concentrated on the general direction, and he knows very well that in the midst of strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away, the real commander does not need to go into battle to kill the enemy.

There is nothing wrong with his understanding, but unfortunately, he does not know that the war situation is facing too many changes, and some accidental factors may completely change the advantage, and even make the entire campaign a failure, and his idea of grasping the general direction is most easily criticized by people and refuted as a paper talk.

Soon after, he felt this very deeply. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
