Chapter 114: Autumn Tide (2)
Xiao Yan asked softly, every word is crucial.
The Western Army has long been an unbreakable quasi-feudal town group whose biggest goal is to survive and develop. This is already an undeniable fact, otherwise the DPRK and China would not have used so much effort to guard against the Western Army.
The Western Army must be maintained, and the generals of the Western Army must remain rich and prosperous for a long time. The original foundation was that Western Xia was rampant, and no matter how much the imperial court did, it could not touch the interests of the Western Army. Now that this is no longer there, the Western Army will have to look elsewhere.
The Western Army was transferred out for an expedition for three years, and the Yandi in the south of the Yangtze River fought two battles, and the vitality was greatly damaged. What I want to do most now is to go back to my hometown and recuperate. The Western Army, which had been smashed by Tong Guan and others in the imperial court, was glued together again. According to the normal way of development, the Western Army originally did not have this opportunity, in real history, only one part of the Western Army had to return to Shaanxi after the disgraceful war of cutting Yan, and there were still a considerable number of military horses left in Hedong or Hebei. After being divided by the imperial court, the morale of the Western Army plummeted, and each part did not have enough strength. After the Jurchens went south, the Western Army left behind in Hedong and Hebei, except for Wang Yushang, who had been defending Taiyuan for a while, all the others were about to collapse. When he returned to Shaanxi, the western army that had not yet licked his wounds was led out by the seed division of King Qin, but the whole army was wiped out when he aided Taiyuan.
But now, the situation is different. The princes of the court and the central government are staring at Xiao Yan and the winning army of Shenwu. After all, one is the closest, the second is Xiao Yan really can't be reassured, and the third is that the prestige of the Shenwu Ever-Winning Army has overshadowed the Western Army for a while. The princes of the court, of course, must first knock down this acorn.
That's why there is a rumor that Shenwu Changsheng is in the military town of Hedong, Huanqing in the military town of Hebei, and almost all of the western army is still in Shaanxi. The western army all breathed a sigh of relief, and called out the luck of inviting the heavens. The reason for this is not because Xiao Yan was born out of thin air, and suddenly became a person who attracted all the jealousy and hatred of the princes of the DPRK and China!
For the future of the Western Army, how to maintain Xiao Yan, who is very capable of pulling hatred, will return to the Western Army in Baidu Song to have enough time to lick its wounds and recuperate. Until they can maintain the status of the generals of the Western Army for a long time, and maintain their privileged way of saving in Shaanxi Zhulu. Of course, the Western Army Jiangmen group does not have any intention of separating the feudal towns, but it is indeed possible to protect the interests of the group, in addition to rebellion, it is indeed possible to use any means.
Although the Western Army can basically determine that most of the main force has returned to Shaanxi, they also know that once there is something in the north, the imperial court will still pull the Western Army out. When I returned to Shaanxi this time, I would not be able to raise this vitality for five or seven years, and you must know that when I left the division, there were more than 150,000 Western Army athletes, and only half of them could return to their hometowns! The morale of the army has fallen to the extreme, and no matter how lightly it is pulled out, it can't even maintain the level of combat power when it was cut down against Yan, and the newly rising Jurchen Tartar in the north is said to be far above the Liao people!
The princes of the DPRK and China were selfish, and the Huanqing Army and the Shenwu Changsheng Army were placed in inappropriate positions. Let the scattered Huanqing Army take on the heavy responsibility of the defense of Yandi and even Hebei. Even though Wang Yu and Ma Kuo are all good generals, the Hebei military town set up by the Huanqing Army of only six or seven thousand people for Gu Qian is extremely weak for a considerable period of time.
If the Huanqing Army collapses, the Western Army will have to come to the rescue, and what the Western Army thinks is to stay in Shaanxi as long as possible, and Ping Pong will come to the north if this is a mixed water.
And the key to this is to enhance Xiao Yan's strength, so that Xiao Yan and Shenwu Chang Victory Army are enough to face the north of the imperial court. Let the Western Army no longer move out of Shaanxi. Moreover, Xiao Yan's preservation has also thinned out a lot of pressure for the Western Army. The more stable Xiao Yanding's position in front is, the more stable the Western Army will live behind him.
The old man fell ill, he was old, and he might not be able to survive this time. With the lack of old species, the Western Army needs more buffer time. The old man was sick, and he was planning for the future of the Western Army, so he sent Yang Keshi to discuss with Xiao Yan secretly. In fact, there are not many things to discuss, that is, if Xiao Yan and the Shenwu Changsheng Army want to gain a firm foothold, what support they need from the Western Army, except for those who are rebellious, whatever support they want, the Western Army will give it!
The imperial court is planning in every way, guarding against these capable armies of the Great Song Dynasty, those military ministers who can lead the army to fight, and those who have won the hearts of the army. And these military horses, these military ministers, and even Xiao Yan, how can they not come up with means to deal with this court?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Xiao Yan asked, Yang Keshi already understood that although he came suddenly, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xianmo, who seemed to be more and more calm and his eyes were becoming sharper, had already figured out his intentions clearly!
At that moment, Yang Keshi could only smile bitterly, open his heart, what to say, and no longer hide it: "The old breed is in danger this time, and he was able to support it before, but now it is difficult to see things...... This expedition of the Western Army has been strange for three years, and the old Xianggong has tried his best to support all the Western Army, and it is almost exhausted...... This time I came, it was all the meaning of the old breed. It's just a matter of saying the words of the old breed and Xiao Xianmo's original book......
The old minister said that he never expected that Xianmo would use financial management to reach himself in front of the official family and have gained a foothold in Bianliang. There is no limit to what will happen in the future. It is precisely because of Xianmo that there are changes in the military town of Hedong and the Yandi of Hebei in the military town of Huanqing, and the western army can finally return to the town of Zhulu in Shaanxi.
Shenwu often wins the military town of Hedong, with Han Yue and the two loyal and brave and good at fighting, Xianmo is supported in the DPRK, and the flank of Hedong is not deeply concerned if there is a war in the future. However, the Huanqing army went out of the town of Yandi, Hebei, but it was a big worry! The remnants of the Huanqing Army, only six or seven thousand, are defeated repeatedly, with this as the backbone, in the next few years, even if Wang Yuma has the means, it will be difficult to support the defense of such a critical place. If the Jurchen does not go south for a few years, once it goes south, it will be Yandi Hebei, and the Jurchen iron horse can almost rush through! At that time, the imperial court will inevitably transfer the western army to the king again, and the current situation of the western army will be difficult to recover within five years. Baidu Song Shi returns, once it is transferred out, I am afraid that it can only end in defeat. In the past few years, we can only count on Xiao Xianmo and the Shenwu Changsheng Army as the mainstay, support for some more time, if we can hold on until the Western Army is exhausted, and then there is still a fight with the Jurchen Iron Cavalry to win a decisive battle with Hebei Zhulu. In this way, its rise is also fast, and its death is also sudden. As long as you survive these few years, the Great Song Dynasty will be worry-free within a hundred years! β
Hearing Yang Keshi relay the words of the old seed, Xiao Yan couldn't help but secretly feel sorry. Although Yang Keshi said these words fluently, it was obvious that Yu Tu didn't know how many times he had secretly recited them. I'm afraid it's still difficult to understand the deep meaning of the old species.
In the eyes of Yang Keshi and other generals of the Western Army, the focus of Lao Chong's life is still to protect the Western Army, and the idea is to try to give the Western Army more time to recover. Xiao Yan had a deep conversation with Lao Chong when he left Yandi. Knowing that this old marshal, when he was running out of time, he had already jumped out of the circle of the Western Army group to consider the problem, and he really thought about how to eliminate the trouble of the Jurchen going south in the future!
really saw that the Jurchen was fierce, and the Great Song Dynasty was already full of holes and was vulnerable. Among the Manchu dynasties, there were very few. Lao Chong is the first of them. In the Huanqing army out of the town of Hebei Yandi, the Shenwu Changsheng army out of the town of Hedong, this situation has been no easier (the latest chapter of the martial arts http://wWw.23hH.coM
wWw.23hH.coM), what he hoped for was that Xiao Yan and the Shenwu Victorious Army could support the situation for a few more years, and when the Western Army recovered its vitality, it would still have a chance to win the decisive war with the Jurchens, and then it would be able to turn the tide of the tide!
What the generals of the Western Army heard from these words was that they would return to Shaanxi to recuperate, and what Xiao Yan heard from the words was that they would concentrate the army of the Great Song Dynasty in the future and fight a decisive battle with the Jurchens!
can understand the old man's intentions, at this time, I am afraid that there is only Xiao Yan alone. The generals of the Western Army, I am afraid that the last few sentences of Lao Chong's words will be regarded as a scene, even if it is Lao Chong's younger brother, it is also average.
But there is no need for Xiao Yan to say this. He just listened silently, and then smiled bitterly: "The Shenwu Changsheng Army is in Hedong, it seems to be a foregone conclusion." The imperial court was also deeply jealous of Xiao's influence in the Shenwu Victorious Army. With Xiao someone, with Shenwu often winning the army, how can it support a few more years? So that the Great Song Dynasty can have time for the Western Army to calmly arrange? I'm afraid that Xiao will be helpless even if someone else is helpless......"
To be honest, the transfer of the Shenwu Changsheng Army to Hedong out of the town was indeed a clever means to cut off the connection between Xiao Yan and the Shenwu Changsheng Army. In the future, whether he can maintain the great influence on the Shenwu Victorious Army, Xiao Yan also feels that it is undecided. I have also repeatedly thought about what means to use, but I am not particularly sure. The loyalty of subordinates is not unconditional, they need to be operated all the time, and they have to deal with so many opponents in Bianliang, what means can they use to firmly control the Shenwu Winning Army, and now it is what Xiao Yan is worried about. When these words came out, there was bitterness on his face, but seven points were true.
Yang Keshi glanced at Xiao Yan, his expression became stern, and he silently recited the words explained by the old seed a few times in his heart, and he also felt heavy in his heart. These words are really not what the courtiers said. Lao Chong was a very cautious person all his life, how could he come up with such a plan when his days were running out? Is it really just to protect the Western Army, you can take all kinds of means regardless of it?
However, Yang Keshi's loyalty to the old breed is indeed speechless. As long as the old seed does not rebel with him, whatever happens, Yang Keshi will not disobey the old seed's wishes, and will only obey his orders. And now it seems that this is also the only way to protect the Western Army, so that the Western Army can delay time to recover its vitality, Yang Keshi is in the Western Army, and his colleagues and subordinates are all rooted here, and to protect the Western Army is to protect all their interests. Let him give up the interests of the entrenched Western Army generals, he really can't do it!
He took a deep breath, his voice was already low and deep, and finally said the dangerous plan set up by the old seed: "When an army is outside, only if it is tempered by special warfare from time to time, the heart will be much simpler. Don't think too much about things. Loyalty to the Hum is also more maintainable............ If the war experienced by this army horse is led by Xian Mo, it will always be controlled. Shenwu often wins the army, how can it get out of the palm of Xianmo? This war was carried out in Hedong, to put it mildly, the Song Dynasty returned, and the imperial court was afraid that it was hoped that the Shenwu Changsheng Army would be weakened day by day, such as the story of our Western Army. And if the Manifest Warrior can always maintain a steady stream of support for the Shenwu Victorious Army, how can the Divine Warrior Victorious Army not always be used by the Manifest Warrior?
"To show great talent, to win the army with divine martial arts. The more wars I go, I'm afraid that the sharpening will become. The more this is the case with the Shenwu Victorious Army, the more the court's attention will only be placed on the Xian Mo and the Shenwu Victorious Army. Our Western Army will have enough time to recuperate and prepare for the future............ It's the best of both worlds! β
Xiao Yan's voice also became low and deep, and he asked softly: "...... What kind of war can always be in my leading control? β
Yang Keshi's eyes flickered at this moment, as if he was ready to get up and leave at any time and never talk about this topic again, so he finally gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Liao Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi was captured by the Yingzhou army last month and sent Huanglong to Huanglong. The remnants of the Liao people were scattered in the prefectures of Yunnei, and once there were enough people to surrender and rebel, they could fight with the Jurchen army and horses north of the old Great Wall in Hedong for a while. The Shenwu Changsheng army went out of the town of Hedong, and could come out of the old Great Wall one after another, and fought with the Jurchens in the name of the rest of the Liao people. The rest of the Liao people can strengthen the momentum of the Shenwu Winning Army, and the tribes of the Yunnan Prefectures can recruit the Shenwu Winning Army as wings, good horses, and strong soldiers. Relying on Hedong behind it, it is enough to attract the attention of the Jurchens............ That's what this war means. β
Xiao Yan got up and increased his forehead with his hand, but at the same time, his face was pale.
I really underestimated the people of the world, and the old seed actually came up with such an idea! To the east of the river, beyond the old Great Wall, is the Yunnei Prefecture, which is the place where the remnants of the last resistance of the Jurchen of the Great Liao Empire operated. The tribes of the states in Yunnei are many and mixed, or they are used by the Liao or attached to the Jurchens, and they are constantly fighting. Yelu Yanxi's army is broken, and the remnants of the Liao people and the tribes that depend on the Liao people may not be completely subjugated, as long as there is a person with enough name to recruit, they can still fight with the Liao people here!
The Shenwu Changsheng army went out of the town to the east of the river, entered and exited the old Great Wall, and took turns to participate in this melee with various divisions. One can sharpen the Shenwu Victorious Army with war. Second, they can recruit rebels and strengthen the momentum of the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army. This war is destined to be a chaotic and small-scale constant entanglement, and in the name of the rest of the Liao people, the emperor is far away, and he is also very good at explaining to the imperial court. And the most likely response of the imperial court is to ignore it, not to give any support to the Shenwu Changsheng army, and wait for this military horse to be weakened to the point that the imperial court can control it at will. And Xiao Yan recruited so many goods, as well as several bases such as Danzhou Dongchuan Wa, and only he could help the Shenwu Changsheng Army with energy sources. Always control the Shenwu Changsheng military in his own hands.
The most poisonous point is not this, the most poisonous point is that the person who has enough name to recruit rebellion! Xiao Yan has the person with enough name in his hands. The old seed was also involved in this trend, and finally died, Guo Yaoshi, Zhao Liangsi, and the Liao Xiao Puxian Empress ended the way. This person is Yelu Yanxi's descendant bloodline, the little dumb Yelu Yu Liyan! With a little mute out of the town of Yunnei Prefectures to recruit the remnants of the Liao people into exile, the Shenwu Changsheng Army thought that it had been under the leadership of Xiao Yan and had been in his control.
Coupled with the steady stream of support for the Shenwu Winning Army, how could the Shenwu Winning Army get out of Xiao Yan's control?
For the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, this battle is something they are willing to accept. This military horse has not lost its spirit. The leading generals have all fought with the Jurchens. Pingbai transferred to Hedong, and there was a resentment.
Fighting a small-scale war with the Jurchen military horses not only sharpens the military horses but also expands the strength, as long as Xiao Yan has a firm foothold in the DPRK, there will always be a place to reimburse for military exploits. The new and strong army is fighting for its position in the Great Song Dynasty with war.
For the Western Army, this war was something they liked to see. The stronger the Shenwu Changsheng army, the more firmly it is mastered by Xiao Yan. The more the court's attention was focused on Xiao Yan. With such a presence in the Western Army, the less suppressed and divided it will be. Moreover, the stronger Shenwu Changsheng army attracted the attention of the Jurchens to Hedong, the weaker the Huanqing army in Hebei was less pressured. The easier it is to maintain the situation, the more stable the Western Army will be able to stay in the Shaanxi Zhulu. There is no need to transfer to the east and west for the imperial court, and finally collapse yourself.
The older the old seed gets, the deeper the fire becomes, and at this moment, it is already perfect. Well, the danger of this strategy is strange, and it covers all aspects. It can only be amazed by the wrist. This old species, if you want to be placed in troubled times, is also a party that can compete for the world!
The benefits of this strategy to Xiao Yan are needless to say, and the benefits to the Western Army are also great. It was even quite helpful to the stability of the defense line in the north of the Great Song Dynasty. The only damage seems to be the imperial court's control of the Western Army's Shenwu Changsheng Army. But if this imperial court, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty and the princes in power, really cherish the only combat power of the Great Song Dynasty, take proper care, take care of it, and use it seriously. Instead of blindly guarding against suppression and division, and even ignoring the northern defense line related to the fate of the Great Song Dynasty, how could the old race come up with such a strange strategy?
This miracle strategy immediately poked into Xiao Yan's heart. But he was still pale, and not for any other reason. For the sake of the little mute Baya Yuliyan! The old man made up his mind, and he actually hit this lonely little mute, and he wanted to throw this orphan girl into the cusp! How can Xiao Yan accept this for a while, and how can he be willing to accept it?
Xiao Yan also understands the old man's lonely heart, and the old man also fully knows Xiao Yan's care and care for the little mute. However, he still came up with this strategy in his illness, completely because the old people did not have confidence in the future battle between the leaders of the court and the Jurchens, and only they had to find a way to maintain the lifeblood of the Great Song Dynasty. When the Jurchens were dragged south, the strength of the Shenwu Changsheng Army was expanded, giving the Western Army enough time to recuperate, and there was still a glimmer of hope for a decisive battle in the future. Song Shigui will fight by hand, breed the family, inherit for a hundred years, and the old seed has done his best for this big Song Dynasty to the last moment!
Yang Keshi saw that Xiao Yan's face was pale, and he was also silent and did not speak.
As a disciple of the generals of the Great Song Dynasty, he made such a proposition behind the back of the imperial court. The trepidation in his heart can also be imagined. If it weren't for the maintenance of the Western Army, if it weren't for the trust of the old man who was sick and dying, he wouldn't have come to this trip anyway to pass on these words. At this moment, what Yang Keshi expected most was that Xiao Yan would rebuke him and refuse to accept this strategy. What will happen to the Western Army in the future, it is up to fate, that is, to pull the broken Western Army out and fight with the Jurchens in blood, and it is just idle to die in battle, so there is no need to suffer such suffering here!
But Xiao Yan was over there, for a long time, and he didn't speak.
I don't have a more clever strategy than the old one, and all aspects have been taken care of. The interests of the Western Army, the interests of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, the interests of his Xiao Yan, and even the long-term interests of the Great Song Dynasty. The price to pay is nothing more than to let the little mute take risks. Reason told sΓΉ Xiao Yan that he should accept this qiΔ, but he couldn't open it......
Isn't the little mute suffering enough? When I came to this era, I already had a lot of feelings for women. The only thing that can comfort one's conscience is to take care of the little mute, and he can ignore the safety of the little mute. In fact, deep down, it is also an empathic effect. I came to this era, and because of my ambition, I don't know how many people have been sacrificed. I don't know how many bloody things I have done. Everyone in Yandi has already killed a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood because of themselves. Guarding and taking care of the little mute seems to be guarding the last bit of oneself that is still like a human part.
To make this decision, you have to give up the last bit of warmth in your heart. Since then, he has walked on the road of ruthlessness and perseverance, and can sacrifice anyone for the ultimate goal!
His goal is to protect this civilization and protect all the people of the Great Song Dynasty in this era...... For the sake of this goal, is it possible to sacrifice a person who should be sacrificed without any scruples?
β¦β¦β¦β¦ Why should you be so hypocritical? When the people of Yandi were involved in chaos, they were already on this road, so what are they talking about now?
Men's Career ...... Men's career. The men's career in this era is nothing more than the word bloody.
Xiao Yan's face gradually turned pale, and in the end, it was a little transparent. He turned around and nodded slightly towards Yang Keshi, who was also silent: "In this place of right and wrong, the Taiwei can't stay for a long time, and the meaning of the old breed is clear." But if I have made up my mind, I will definitely inform the old breed and Brother Yang as soon as possible, and I will arrange for someone to escort the Taiwei back. Our two families are back and forth, and we must keep it at all times at this moment......
That's it, it's really a slow treatment of the captain. β
Yang Keshi didn't want to delay here for a moment, so he got up and hugged his fists and saluted: "In this case, please place it." Since I returned to the army, I can't talk about any slow treatment. We are just waiting for the decision of the demonstrators. β
Xiao Yan hurriedly replied, walked out of the room without looking back, and stumbled at the door with an unstable figure. Yang Keshi also kept a face, trying his best to control the ups and downs of his heart.
Old breeder, what are you doing this for? Is it right or wrong to make such a judgment?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The footsteps were noisy, and several raccoon hats guarded Xiao Yan and went straight into the courtyard of the other courtyard. I have been waiting for a long time at the door. These days have been living in Bianliang, and the original Dongchuanwa is an indifferent and unfortunate face student, but now he is fat, and his expression is very different from before.
Xiao Yan's ability to turn his hands into clouds and cover his hands for rain in Bianliang made Zuo Liao, a rather conceited scholar from the North, also breathtaking, and had to secretly admire. Once admired, the mind of solid effectiveness will also be secretly born. Xiao Yan is also undoubted, and the financial and financial affairs he has in his hands now are so large that they can be called amazing. The full power of the calculation of the collection and expenditure was handed over to Zuo Liao. Zuo Liaoji has been depressed for half his life, and once he is reused, he will burst out with considerable ability.
Xiao Yan is in charge of the financial and accounting affairs, the number is large, the projects are also extremely complex, and the relationship between them is also quite complicated. A ball market alone, that is, should be served by the official family, each family dividends, Xiao Yan's income, plus the bond deductions issued by the guarantee of these incomes, how to offset the interest in the middle, what are the open and dark deductions, stirred up in a mess that very people can sort out. Zuo Liaozhi is accumulating, and the cooking score is not happy. Knowing that Xiao Yan has such a talented person, they are all amazed at how Xiao Yan discovered such a talent.
At this time, Zuo Liaozhi was full of smiles, and greeted Xiao Yan as he came in: "Brother Xianmo has already paid the details of the two accounts in Dongchuanwa, Danzhou for the past six months, and there is nothing wrong with it." Paste the bar Song Shi returned to the bar hand-beaten, and the profit income totaled 67,897 yuan. Part of it is cash, and part of it is the discount of grain. Please show me how the proceeds go here or what they are disposed of. β
Xiao Yan's face was still calm as usual, but between his eyebrows, there was a faint depression in the middle, and ordinary people couldn't tell this change at all. Zuo Liao was full of money and plans, but he didn't notice it at all.
Xiao Yan groaned for a while, waved his hand and said, "You don't have to send them all, most of them stay in Dongchuanwa to operate." Let them pay 5,000 guan to Bianliang, and they are completely self-supporting, but they have a slack and contemptuous heart.
It is not the fulfillment of the doctrine of subordinates...... That's how I said to Wang Gui. β
Zuo Liao replied, to be honest, now Xiao Yan has never taken these tens of thousands of profits in his eyes at all. The wave of bond issuance that swept up from Concubine Yisu has become one of the hottest topics in Bianliang these days. How many people are carrying large sums of money to send to him? Before Wang Guiyang Keshi came, he accompanied several Bianliang giant family owners to play golf there and talk about business. Why bother to get a golf out, one is that I think that this kind of business is high-end and magnificent, and the other is because I decided to take the road of Xingchen, how can I attract the attention of the official family without making some new things, and attract the official family to visit Xing, the monarch and the minister will come to the eighteenth hole, which is the supreme means of crossing the guest as a favored minister......
