Chapter Eighty-Six: Grievances Are Inseparable (Part II)

Zhang Shijie was stunned to see the rolling river flowing in front of him, and his heart was naturally full of tastes.

And Ye Yingwu didn't say anything, just let Zhang Shijie stand in the wind, and his eyes had already followed the river to the west. As the commander of the four compartments of the Tianwu Army, Ye Yingwu could not just limit his eyes to the training of the 20,000 soldiers of the Tianwu Army, but also need to think about the direction and retreat for the entire Tianwu Army.

If it is said that the construction of the camps and fortresses in Xing** is now to give the Tianwu Army a nest to escape the catastrophe, then Ye Yingwu now wants to decide a direction to go. The Tianwu Army must not be an army hiding in the high city, but should be a sharp blade that breaks the water and goes against the current, and only in this way can it fundamentally change the helpless status quo of the Song Army's good defense but not good attack.

This is a very difficult process, because for a hundred years, the Song army has been up to the generals to the soldiers, and the idea that defending the city is victory has been deeply rooted, which was vividly reflected in the later Mongol war to destroy the Song Dynasty.

This is also the reason why Ye Yingwu entrusted the radical young generals such as Jiang Hao and Wang Jin with important tasks, because only these young generals who do not know the height of the sky can lead the nascent Tianwu Army to launch selfless attacks again and again.

The green mountains are hidden in the water.

Ye Yingwu pondered silently, from here along the Jiuqu River to the west, first cover Daye County on the flank of Yongxing County, and then the two lakes are second only to the Xiangfan front of the important town - Ezhou, Kublai Khan once launched the battle of Ezhou, is to conquer this important town. Then there is Luzhou, which enters Sichuan and Shu from Jinghu.

Luzhou, Ye Yingwu took a breath lightly. Luzhou as the main road to communicate Sichuan and Shuhu and Jinghu, has always been the main point of contention between Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty, in history there have been five easy and five guards, casting the reputation of "Tielu City", and later Luzhou City has been held by the Southern Song Dynasty, even after the surrender of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Luzhou army and people are still desperately resisting, and finally there is no Austrian aid outside, no grain and grass inside, and the city falls, resulting in the entire Sichuan-Shu Song army being completely divided and surrounded. Luzhou Shenjian City has also been lost in the long river of history as a city that once stood.

And now Luzhou is firmly in the hands of the Song army, but there is still a Mongolian army led by Liu Cheng in the north, Liu Cheng surrendered as a defender of Luzhou, although the soldiers in his hands are not very strong, but after all, he himself knows Luzhou very well, and there is a naval division under his command that should not be underestimated.

What's more, it was this Liu Quan, who went north a year later and bowed to Kublai Khan, and offered Kublai Khan a strategy to develop a naval division and attack Xiangyang, which opened the curtain of the Xiangfan War and greatly promoted the development of the Mongolian weak naval division.

So for Ye Yingwu, although the current Liu Cheng looks mediocre and humble, he is a potential threat that must not be ignored. After the Tianwu Army's sharp blade was sharpened, the six diseases were a good choice as the first target.

But from Xing** to Luzhou, a reasonable reason is needed.

couldn't help frowning slightly, Ye Yingwu just looked at the distant mountains quietly, in fact, the best way was to lure Ah Shu to attack Xiangfan, and then take the Tianwu army to aid Xiangyang with the help of the two Huai Shui Divisions, which would not only get the support of Jia Yidao, but also Xia Gui of Sichuan and Shu saw that someone came out to replace him, so he naturally raised his hands in favor.

But this is absolutely impossible to work, the Song and Yuan wars, the turning point is in Xiangfan, before there is no strong enough force, Ye Yingwu is not willing to break out in the Xiangfan war, once it is really impossible to relieve Xiangfan, the existence of the Tianwu Army is actually not of much significance. Xiangfan is lost, and there are too few places to defend along the river.

For the sake of Luzhou and Liu Quan, the Xiangfan War was triggered, which was really a bit of a sacrifice. But Liu Cheng could not be allowed to be there, nor could Luzhou be under the threat of the Mongol army. Ye Yingwu looked at Zhang Shijie beside him, Zhang Shijie's brows were not tightly locked, but Zhang Shijie didn't know that Ye Yingwu began to calculate him again after giving him a trap.

The two of them stood side by side like this, looking at the river flowing under the pier, and neither of them said a word. Knowing that it would not be good to go on like this, Lu Xiufu, who was standing behind them, couldn't help coughing lightly, and the two of them suddenly came back to their senses, looked at each other and smiled a little strangely, and they both felt the helplessness and complexity in each other's eyes.

"What does my brother-in-law think?" Ye Yingwu sighed secretly in his heart, the matter of Luzhou still needs to be discussed again, and the problems of the people of Huangzhou should be solved first.

After all, this is a long process, but the time left by God for himself is too little, if he can come to this era early, I am afraid there can be more room for turnover, and now there is no room for the slightest hesitation.

Looking at Ye Yingwu's very sincere gaze, Zhang Shijie trembled slightly, and couldn't help but say, "Yuanlie, do you really plan to do such a thing?" You must know that if this matter is revealed, not only you and me, but even Junshi and they will be indispensable to the crime of accountability, and when the time comes, the situation that several ministers have worked hard to set up, the Tianwu Army and the Anji Army, and the countless soldiers of the two Huaishui Divisions who have earned their fame one after another, may all turn into a must. This matter needs to be taken seriously. ”

Lu Xiufu just shook his head slightly and didn't say anything.

With a cold smile, Ye Yingwu said indifferently: "Does my brother-in-law think that we still have so much leisure?" And the brother-in-law believes that Huangzhou ・・・・・・"

Ye Yingwu's words were not finished, and Zhang Shijie did shudder in his heart. Fundamentally speaking, there is no need to hold on to Huangzhou, there are too few dangerous places to guard here, and it has become a burden that the Great Song Dynasty can not shake off, if you give up, you can also reduce the burden on the imperial court, not to mention that it is not an obvious abandonment, but only the people of Huangzhou are moved inward, which can be branded as a strong wall and a clear field, and the name of the whole army war.

As for the ferocity of the Mongolian iron cavalry at that time, the two Huai water divisions were invincible and had to abandon the city, but it is another way of saying that the land of Huangzhou was abandoned and the people moved inward was the reason why the eight poles could not be beaten, and this crime was not enough to make the two Huai water divisions do, because even Jia Yidao had to understand the fact that the water division could not defend on land at all.

For the sake of more than 10,000 people under his command, his brother-in-law really thinks about everything, but these more than 10,000 people are also a rare force for Xing** at this time, and it will be a lot easier for the construction of the back road of the Tianwu Army.

Gritting his teeth, Zhang Shijie looked at Ye Yingwu, and after a long time, he nodded heavily: "Since Yuanlie has such determination, it is up to you, but you and I have an appointment first, if something happens in Huangzhou, the Tianwu Army cannot sit idly by." ”

Nodding gratefully, a big stone fell in Ye Yingwu's heart, and it was even warmer in his heart. Zhang Shijie is reminding himself that once Huangzhou is attacked, the Tianwu Army cannot sit idly by, but if he puts on a posture of active assistance, so that he can perform this drama more realistically, even if Jia Yidao finds out that something is wrong, he can't find enough reason and excuse, so he can only swallow this bitter fruit.

With the people of Huangzhou who moved inward, Ye Yingwu's pressure will be much less, and the Tianwu Army, which has just gathered its troops, can finally carry out daily drills, otherwise some soldiers of the Tianwu Army have been practicing in the past few days, while others are going to repair the city, although it is not impossible to replace them in turn, but the time for training will be greatly shortened after all, but this is also the biggest concession that Su Liuyi, who represents all the generals, and Lu Xiufu, who represents all the civil officials, can make to the other party.

Of course, Ye Yingwu's mediation is also indispensable in the middle, Ye Yingwu has not planned that there will be obvious cracks in the small group that has just been formed under his command, and now what he needs is that this famous civil and military force in history can be united, and only in this way can the Tianwu Army really falter in this last day but have to go on unswervingly.

seems to also understand Ye Yingwu's difficulties, Zhang Shijie looked at the young man beside him intentionally or unintentionally, this is just a young man who has just been crowned this year, but his eyebrows have revealed a haggard and heavy that does not belong to this age.

The 20,000 soldiers of the Tianwu Army and the land of Xing** three counties are like two heavy burdens on his young shoulders, so that this young man, who is not a weak crown, has endured too much for this dynasty that is struggling in the southeast.

But Zhang Shijie can also see that Ye Yingwu's eyes are blazing, and this kind of radiant gaze is not only on Ye Yingwu, but also on Lu Xiufu beside him and even a few Xing** officials who accompanied him, all of them are so stared at and so bright. In an instant, Zhang Shijie seemed to understand something, although these people were tired, tired, and took on too much, but in their hearts, they had the long-cherished wish to hold up a piece of the sky for the Great Song Dynasty, and had the dream of standing out in this troubled world, which was what they were pursuing, and what the entire Tianwu Army was pursuing.

It's a group of young people.

Zhang Shijie couldn't help but sigh, being in it, compared with the old and gloomy court, even he felt comfortable.

Suddenly remembering something, Ye Yingwu turned to say: "In fact, there is another tricky place, that is, Lord Fan Wenhu, the deputy envoy of the system along the river, although this matter is not intended to be hidden from the one in Lin'an, but we don't want to make a noise, but if that Lord Fan is aware of it, it will not be a simple matter, and if it makes a big fuss, it will give people a handle, and it may become the object of common condemnation by the people of the world・・・・・・

"Shhh Not only Zhang Shijie, but even Lu Xiufu gasped, his face changed slightly, it turned out that he had just been thinking about how to get Zhang Shijie to agree, but he forgot about this nominal boss of the Zhuzhou Prefecture along the Yangtze River, Lord Fan Wenhu Fan. For this Lord Fan, even if he didn't know him before, after seeing his performance in the battle of Hanshui, he didn't have a good impression of him, and at the moment when the army was fighting, even if it was difficult to defeat for a while, how could there be a master general who would take the boat to escape first, it was really ridiculous.

Of course, what is even more ridiculous is that Jia Nidao reversed black and white, and actually preserved Fan Wenhu stubbornly, allowing Jiangnan West Road, Huainan West Road (Huangzhou, Qizhou belong), Jingnan South Road (Xiangyang), Jinghu North Road (Jiangling, Ezhou belonging) and other surrounding roads, states, and governments to impeach Fan Wenhu have been sent to the court like snowflakes, and even Lu Wende, who is a close general under Jia Nidao, also sent a recital, but Jia Nidao turned a blind eye to all of this, and used a sentence of "merit and demerit offset" He firmly pressed Fan Wenhu in the position of deputy envoy of the system along the river.

In fact, Jia Nidao has no choice but to do this, although he is the ruler of the Great Song Dynasty, but in fact, there are not many troops that can really be grasped in his hands, although Li Tingzhi has contact with him, but it does not mean that this general who has two Huai and resists Mongolia with the strength of one army will listen to the order, and the real one who can be called Jia Nidao's lineage, I am afraid that there are only Lu Wende and Lu Wenhuan in Xiangyang, but although there are more than 100,000 troops in Xiangyang, there is also a famous Mongolian general Ashu on the opposite side, and he can't act rashly in any case.

What's more, Xiangyang's army is more of a land pawn, and Jia Rudao urgently needs to find a cronies who are also obedient to him to control a powerful sailor, and this task falls on Fan Wenhu's shoulders, so Fan Wenhu always aggressively put on a posture of wanting to seize power before the Han Water War.

Even if Jia Rudao can't see it, Weng Yinglong and Liao Yingzhong, who are his left arm and right arm, can also see that this Fan Wenhu is not a reliable person, but after searching the entire Great Song Dynasty, he can't find a person who can take on such a heavy burden, so he can only pinch his nose and let this loyal mediocre master control a sailor first.

Among the Great Song Dynasty Sailors, the strongest is the two Huai Sailors under Zhang Shijie, not only the building ships, but also the sea ships, and the new equipment, the elite of the soldiers, is also first-class in the Great Song Dynasty Sailors, not to mention that mastering the two Huai Sailors means cutting off a strong arm of Jiang Wanli's party, and now there is such a saying, the two Huai Shui Divisions and the Tianwu Army are the left arm and right arm of the Nankang Army who can not be ignored in the Jiang Wanli who sit and watch the world roll, and they are also Jia Yidao's henchmen.

In this way, if Ye Yingwu and Zhang Shijie moved to the people of Huangzhou, it would really not be possible to fight with the enemy, but Fan Wenhu, who was a veteran of his own people, would not let go of this God-given opportunity no matter what, not to mention that he knew that he had caused great dissatisfaction with Jia Nidao after messing up last time, and Fan Wenhu was now staring at the Tianwu Army and the two Huai Shui Divisions.

"Grievances and grievances, when will they be understood." Zhang Shijie couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Lu Xiufu, who was beside him, also nodded sympathetically.

This Great Song Dynasty is not that the enemy is too strong outside, but that he is under the pressure of the enemy's army, and his own family is still on guard against each other! It is estimated that in Jia Rudao's heart, Mongolia in the distance is not at all a threat to the nearby Jiangnan West Road!

Mongolia is still too far away after all, but Jiang Wanli is on the side of the couch, as a hero who is not a hero, Jia Rudao's side of the couch, how can he allow others to sleep peacefully.

"How sad it is that the outside must first be at ease." Ye Yingwu said lightly, the demise of a behemoth will never come from the outside, but from the inside. If this dynasty continues like this, it will be cleaned up by internal friction. Four hundred years later, the Ming Dynasty is like this; Six hundred years later, this is true in China.

There are green mountains in the distance, and the river is vast nearby.

After being silent for a long time, Zhang Shijie seemed to have made up his mind, and suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Yingwu: "The general is outside, and the king's order is not affected." At such a juncture, you and I should be cheap, Tianwu Army and the two Huai Shui Divisions are in hand, why be afraid of him! ”

As soon as these words came out, Ye Yingwu just smiled faintly, but Lu Xiufu was like a lightning strike, and he was stunned in the river breeze.
