Chapter 43: Where Are You?
It was a few days after Li Yun received the report from Han Wei and Dan Jue, and Zhao Zheng and Fu Li actually appeared in Bagongyuan.
Deceived again!
Li Yun was so angry, the little monk dared to go the opposite way and show off his might on his own territory, which was really hateful. However, Han Wei means that the two may be captured by the Northern Han.
But the news from the Northern Han Dynasty was nothing, Li Yun was very disappointed, and he was also a little puzzled, was it deliberately concealed? The Northern Han people even sneaked into the range of Luzhou and were unscrupulous?
After being indignant, while sending someone to question Liu Jun, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, he thought that if Zhao Zheng had escaped, where would he be now? Is there a possibility of interception in Zezhou?
Lu Qiu Zhongqing shook his head again and again, the top priority is the war, what do two inconsequential young people have to care about? What can you do other than vent your anger and revenge if you are caught? Wasting energy on things that don't matter, putting the cart before the horse!
"Gong Li, don't take care of them yet, the top priority is to march south." Luqiu Zhongqing said: "The Northern Han side has not seen any action, the timing can not be delayed any longer, Li Gongke can lead the army into Taihang Mountain, go south to Huaizhou and Mengzhou, cross the Yellow River, capture Luoyang, such a big event can be expected!" ”
This is the second time that Lu Qiu Zhongqing has proposed this to Li Yun, and in his opinion, this is the fastest, most effective, and most correct strategic path.
It's a pity that Li Yun didn't listen, and waved his hand again and refused: "No, what's the matter with hiding in Taihang Mountain?" That's the coward's table. As for going south, Zhao Zheng's kid has also mentioned it like this, and it is likely that the Song army has already arranged there. Otherwise, how could he go south from this, it must be Zhao Kuangyin who answered there, and this matter should not be mentioned again. ”
"Uh......" Lu Qiu Zhongqing wanted to persuade again, but when he opened his mouth, Li Yun had already walked away. At that moment, he was speechless.
Disappointment, frustration, frustration...... The first strategist of the Zhaoyi Army was stunned, and secretly sighed in his heart, maybe defeat was doomed.
At that moment, Lu Qiu Zhongqing seemed to understand the pathos and helplessness of many well-known strategists. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, before the Battle of Guandu, Tian Feng was probably in the same mood as he was at this moment.
Maybe Zhao Kuangyin is the true son of heaven, and he sent a little monk to turn Luzhou around. Now that the person is gone, it has invisibly prompted Li Yun to abandon a correct path.
Maybe this is the will of God, many times victory and defeat are only in one detail, between one behavior, Li Yun has made too many mistakes, and the impact of mistakes continues......
……
After the alliance, Liu Jun did not return to Jinyang City immediately, but chose to stay in Taipingyi and wait for news.
One is about sending troops to fight against Zhao Kuangyin, and the other is about hunting down Zhao Zheng and Fu Li.
Liu Jiye did not go to Licheng, but secretly went south to Bagongyuan, on the grounds that Zhao Zheng might go in the opposite direction.
It's a pity that I went and found traces of suspected Zhao Zheng, but I didn't catch anyone.
Liu Jun was a little disappointed, and even lost his temper, but he didn't criticize Liu Jiye too harshly. After all, he had done his best, and in the case of Luzhou boundary, without informing Li Yun, it was inevitably inconvenient to move. It's not his fault that he didn't catch anyone, but it's a pity, that Zhao Zheng, force and resourcefulness are not trivial, and the most important thing is that he is so young, Zhao Kuangyin has such a right-hand man, it is even more difficult to deal with.
What a pity!
Then Li Yun sent someone to ask if they had caught Zhao Zheng and Fu Li, but Han Wei only suspected that the person was Liu Jiye, and he couldn't be sure. After tossing and turning a few times, there was no mention of a person like Liu Jiye having a long conversation with Zhao Zheng, just an ordinary question. Liu Jiye couldn't help but sweat, but fortunately Liu Jun didn't notice it.
Although he did not reveal his identity that day, he still leaked the news, it was definitely not Zhao Zheng, Liu Jiye believed in his character. Although the action that day was risky, Liu Jiye did not regret it.
Once he really causes trouble for Linzhou's younger brother, he will be uneasy. Zhao Zheng is not trivial, and getting him a gentleman's appointment is not a bad thing for the Yang family.
Liu Jun was quite sorry that he didn't catch Zhao Zheng and Fu Li, but his attention also turned to the war. Li Yun's appearance made him very disappointed, and he is still hesitant to this day, looking forward and backward, how can this work?
Liu Jun's original enthusiasm has gradually cooled down, and he is not as optimistic about the prospect as he was at the beginning. However, he still plans to send troops to support Li Yun.
After all, it is a rare opportunity, someone is a striker in front, and he supports himself in the back, taking advantage of the situation to pursue, and marching south at a relatively small cost, and may have the opportunity to re-enter Bianliang. I have to say that this matter has a great **, and it is reasonable for Liu Jun to never forget it.
However, his prime minister Zhao Hua dissuaded him again, hoping that Liu Jun would not wade into troubled waters, send troops to assist Li Yun, and bring senseless sacrifices to the Northern Han Dynasty.
"Why? Why is Zhao Qing sure that there is no chance of winning this battle? Liu Jun was a little unwilling, and finally waited for Bianliang to change the dynasty, and the opportunity was rare. If Zhao Kuangyin sits firmly in the country, with a corner of the Northern Han Dynasty, it will be difficult to regain the world.
Zhao Hua said bitterly: "Go south to Taihang, attack Huaizhou and Mengzhou, and defend Luoyang according to the tiger prison, this is the most correct strategy." If our Northern Han army goes south, the minister will definitely build it like this, so he may be able to defend half of the country and fight for the world with Zhao Kuangyin in the east. I heard that Luqiu Zhongqing also has such significance, but it was vetoed by Li Yun, and the Zhaoyi Army has no chance of winning, so why should my Majesty let my Northern Han Erlang die innocently? ”
"This ......"
"Are you sure? There is no other way to do it? Liu Jun seemed a little unconvinced.
"Basically, there is no improvement, when the first emperor went south to conquer Chai Rong, he also took this road, and then the fierce battle of Gaoping, there was a battle on Bagong Plain. It's a pity that the weather is unfavorable to our army, so that the success falls short. Zhao Hua said: "Now Li Yun has given up this method, although he is based in Zezhou, he has not entered, and he is waiting to be killed after all." ”
"That's ......"
Taking his father Liu Chong's old story as an example, Liu Jun began to look back, and the situation was indeed not as good as he imagined. First of all, he was played by the little monk, and now there are people who don't obey the correct construction, Li Yun is so rigid and confused, I'm afraid it's really difficult to achieve a big thing!
Unconsciously, Liu Jun began to lose hope, and then began to retreat. It's just that he has sworn an oath with Li Yun and has also crowned a king of Xiping, if he retreats in such a gloomy manner, wouldn't it be treacherous? This one thing alone, I am not afraid that Li Yun will be dissatisfied, I am afraid that it will damage the reputation of the Northern Han Dynasty, and if anyone wants to take refuge in the future, they will also weigh it.
There is always a way, Liu Jun thought about it, discussed with several courtiers for a long time, and came up with a way. 10,000 reinforcements are discounted, and now 35,000 people are sent to help in the war, and they are all old and weak soldiers, even if they stand and fight, there is not much substantial damage to the Northern Han, even if the whole army is annihilated, it is such a big thing.
Let's do it first, if Li Yun is capable, the development of the battle situation will be smoother, and then send additional reinforcements, or the benefit of the left-handed fisherman, it will be very good.
When the reinforcements of the Northern Han Dynasty arrived in Luzhou, Li Yun suddenly became angry, a group of old and weak soldiers, with low combat effectiveness, how could they become a big thing? This is the so-called elite of the Northern Han Dynasty? The number of people has also suddenly dropped by half, and the attitudes and practices are simply very different!
Li Yun was furious, but the Northern Han Dynasty dealt with it well, saying that Fuzhou Assassin Shi Zhede led the army to attack the hinterland of the Northern Han Dynasty, and needed to send troops back to aid Yunyun. For the time being, more soldiers and horses could not be sent to support, but Xuanhui asked Lu Zan to leave Xiangzan's military affairs to help Luzhou.
Bastard, Li Yun scolded, he still wants to point fingers if he doesn't send troops, what the hell? Therefore, he also ignored the overseer Luzan. did not listen to Luqiu Zhongqing's construction, and faced the Song army that was constantly besieged,
ordered his son Li Shoujie to guard Luzhou City, and personally led 30,000 troops to garrison Zezhou, wanting to fight Zhao Kuangyin to the death.
……
When the news came, Zhao Kuangyin had already arrived at the edge of the Yellow River. Li Yun did not enter Taihang Mountain, and the most feared thing did not happen. As long as it is exposed, even if the city of Zezhou is tall, there is also a way to conquer it.
Only this, the victorious Taiping has been tilted to the side of the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyin is overjoyed. Especially when I heard that this qiē situation was created by Zhao Zheng's mistakes, at least it was all his beginning, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain.
In this regard, Zhao Kuangyin was very satisfied, and even a little excited. But Chu Zhaofu sent back the news that Zhao Zheng and Fu Li had disappeared in Bagong Town, and it was possible that they had been captured by the Northern Han people.
The news is uncertain, Beihan and Luzhou have not announced relevant news, nor have they heard relevant rumors, which is a good thing, at least there is no bad news for now!
After Zhao Kuangyin finished commanding the military deployment, he looked up at the north from afar, and couldn't help but worry, where are you?
