CHAPTER XXXI
"I intend to open up another battlefield when the Liao and Zhubu armies are deploying troops to counterattack the Ming army, and use the 80,000 Ming army of Yanyun to join the 25,000 Zhou troops stationed in Zhenzhou by Wu Xingwen to attack Dadingfu north of the Luanhe River in Liao, so that the difficulty of counterattacking the Ming army can be solved, and the second can attract the Liao army to return to defense."
When Wang Pu heard this, his eyes lit up: "Your Majesty Ming." ”
Baili Wuji shook his hand lightly and said, "But if you really want the Liao Kingdom to be interested in Yanyun, you need two people in the land of Yanyun." Wang Langzhong might as well guess. ”
Wang Pu said softly: "If you want to make the heart of the Liao Kingdom moved, there are only the emperor and His Majesty the Ming Kingdom in the world." ”
Baili Wuji nodded and said, "Wang Langzhong is smart, in this way, do you already know my intentions?" ”
Wang Pu closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and replied: "The foreign minister is dull and speculates in vain, if there is anything inappropriate, please ask His Majesty Mingguo for advice." ”
Baili Wuji signaled: "It's okay, just speak freely." ”
"His Majesty Ming knows that the Liao State spies have leaked the news that the Ming army is going to counterattack the Bu army from the front line of Long, Jian, and Bizhou, but he does not adjust the steps, but wants to open up a new battlefield in Yanyun.
Baili Wuji smiled and motioned for Wang Pu to continue.
"But if you really want to mobilize the Liao army back to defend Dading Mansion, you must have enough bargaining chips to make the Liao State excited, then, there is no one else in the world except the emperors of Ming and Zhou. With these two emperors sitting in Yanyun, presumably the Liao Kingdom must be like ants on a hot pot, and they can't help but want to taste the fat. But the foreign minister did not understand one thing. If the two emperors sit in Yanyun and Yanyun's troops are too strong, the Liao State will inevitably hear the wind and avoid it. inability to achieve the intended purpose; If the troops are too weak, not only will the Zhou and Ming armies be like sheep in the mouth of a tiger, but even the two emperors will be in danger, I don't know how the Ming emperor can grasp this degree? ”
Baili Wuji really likes this Wang Langzhong, he got to the crux of the problem at once, indeed, this degree is very difficult to grasp. If you are not careful, you will have the end of stealing chickens and rice.
"Wang Langzhong can know the strength of Jinling Mansion?"
"It's ......."
"It's okay, just say it."
"Please forgive your majesty. There are only 20,000 Ming Imperial Forest Army stationed in Jinling Prefecture, except for the newly formed 100,000 new army, the other Ming troops have been transferred to the battlefield, and even the special combat army that has always been stationed in Kyoto is now stationed in the area of Pizhou in our country. ”
Baili Wuji smiled: "Look." Even you know the distribution of Ming forces. The Liao State is naturally clear. ”
Wang Pu was surprised: "The foreign minister doesn't know what the relationship between the two is? ”
Baili Wuji said: "Yanyun Ming army of 80,000 people, Liao State has already learned that Ming Kingdom Kyoto has no more soldiers except for 100,000 new troops. And once the 100,000 new troops were transferred to the front line of Long, Jian, and Bizhou, there was no possibility for the Ming State to reinforce Yanyun. Although Yanyun's 80,000 Ming army is numerous, but without reinforcements, if you are Liaomu Zong Yelujing, you know that Yanyun suddenly has two emperors stranded. What will be done? ”
Wang Pu Yilin said: "If it is changed to a foreign minister." Then the Liao army in the south and north of the Weizhou line was ordered to block the Ming and Zhou armies with all their might, and then gathered the strength of the whole country to attack Yanyun and capture the Ming and Zhou emperors alive, if the two emperors fled south, they would occupy Yanyun and take advantage of the situation to go south and seize the Central Plains ....... ”
Wang Pu couldn't help but start sweating, this is a big gamble, the bet is Baili Wuji and Chai Rong, that is, the Ming and Zhou countries, and the most critical point is that Yanyun 80,000 Ming army and Zhou 25,000 Zhou army, can withstand the full force of the Liao State, and if it can withstand the Liao State in the west, the Liao and Stopping Army will collapse without a fight under the coercive attack of the 100,000 new army, so that the Ming and Zhou countries will change the battlefield situation and become the initiative; If they can't withstand it, the two emperors will be in danger, even if they can escape temporarily by fleeing south, but the Liao army that takes the opportunity to go south will occupy Yanyun and the entire northern part of Zhou, and the situation will become out of control.
Baili Wuji looked at Wang Pu and was silent and did not speak.
Wang Pu was shocked, this was no longer something that his identity could know and participate in, his mouth was wide open, his heart was surging, and he had the urge to yell hysterically.
He looked at Baili Wuji in a daze, this gentle and elegant Ming Emperor in his mind turned out to be a gambler, a crazy boundless gambler.
Now the war situation, even if it is difficult, but entering a stalemate is beneficial to the Ming and Zhou countries, the people of the Central Plains are far more patient with the war than the northern nomads, as long as they survive another winter, the nomads will not be able to hold on anyway, they can only choose to retreat.
Otherwise, the more than ten prefectures that have already been looted by the Liao army will not only starve to death of countless Han people, but also the Liao army will die of starvation.
But the emperor of the Ming Kingdom in front of him actually laid out such a gamble, which made Wang Pu not know what to say.
Looking at Wang Pu's stunned expression, Baili Wuji understood that this was not something that everyone could understand. In Baili Wuji's heart, Wang Pu is an ambitious, intelligent, charismatic, loyal, modest and cautious gentleman who can bear the price he needs to achieve his goals.
"Wang Langzhong, I am not a gambler." Baili Wuji seemed to see through Wang Pu's heart, "If you want to gamble, at most, I will gamble with my own life and the Jiangshan Society of the Ming Kingdom, and I will never drag down the Zhou Kingdom, can you believe this?" ”
Wang Pu was secretly frightened, his heart seemed to have no secret in front of Baili Wuji, listening to Baili Wuji's heart-to-heart words, Wang Pu couldn't help but be a little moved, as the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, there was no need to say this to himself, he was just a messenger of the Zhou State, a dispensable left counselor, maybe Chai Rong regarded himself as a confidant, but for a country's court, this counselor is only four grades, and it is indeed not a pivotal four words.
Wang Pu took a deep breath and replied, "Foreign minister's letter." ”
"The Khitan and Zhubu in the north have been invading the Central Plains for hundreds of years, how many Han people have been bullied, how many Han people can not return to their hometowns until death, I remember that when the peace treaty was signed with the Liao State, when the Ming envoys returned to Yanyun from the Liao State to the south of Jingnan, countless Han people along the way prostrated on both sides of the road, begging the envoys to take them back to their hometowns, and they looked forward to the northern expedition of Wang Shi day and night. Wang Langzhong, Kaifeng Mansion is closer to the north than Jinling Mansion, in the dead of night, have you ever heard the cry of the suffering Han people in the distance? ”
Wang Pu was speechless, he actually had a ravine in his heart, but the time of the Zhou State was still short, poverty and weakness, and the domestic internal strife continued, speaking from the heart, Wang Pu was very optimistic about Chai Rong, since the Liang, Tang, Jin and Han dynasties, there is no emperor who can be more wise than Guo Wei and Chai Rong, closer to the hearts of the people, but unfortunately, if the two emperors can be born fifty years early, there will be no Khitan and divination people in the northern land.
