Chapter 693: The Battle Situation on the Sand Table

The reception banquet was made by Wu Tianshao, but it was a big scene, but Wu Tianshao was very prestigious in the Northwest Army, and the generals under his command saw that Wu Tianshao was punished by Xiao Huaiyu because of Han Mo, and they all immediately showed dissatisfaction with Han Mo, and Wu Tianshao suffered Han Mo's loss in front of everyone, which made the faces of the Northwest generals also gloomy.

The banquet came to the end in a very discordant atmosphere, and after everyone dispersed, Han Mo followed Cao Yin to the camp, and Cao Yin had to persuade a few words.

The generals of the Northwest Army, most of them only have Xiao Huaiyu in their eyes, and they don't take the Beijing officials of the imperial court to heart, in fact, they are Changde Hou Cao Yin, and the generals of the Northwest are only very respectful in their faces, and they may not really be in awe of this marquis who is as gentle as a woman.

Wu Tianshao reprimanded Han Mo in front of Cao Yin, and even scolded the officials in Beijing for living a luxurious life, if it was Xiao Huaiyu's command, it would be fine, but if it was not Xiao Huaiyu's command, then it can also reflect a very serious problem from one angle, the generals of the Northwest Army are very dissatisfied with the imperial court's decision to celebrate this time, and they are also extremely dissatisfied with the officials of the Han faction.

This dangerous signal made Han Mo not pay much attention to Wu Tianshao's provocation to himself, but was more concerned about the future of the Han family.

He understands a deep truth, power comes out of the barrel of a gun.

The Han family's power in the Yan Kingdom is increasing day by day, and it even faintly overshadows the Xiao family's momentum in the court, at first glance, the Han family is now extremely advantageous, but Han Mo passed by the northwest military camp this time, but he shivered coldly.

No matter how strong a family is in the court, it can't control the military power of the country, and the greater the power, the more dangerous it is.

Now it seems that Taishi Xiao has repeatedly suffered setbacks in the competition with the Han family in the court, and many officials have leaned on the Han family's side, the Han family seems to be prosperous at this time, and the Xiao family seems to be gradually losing ground.

If you sit in Beijing and watch the sky, without looking at other factors, it really gives people a feeling that the Han family is strong.

But Han Mo suddenly understood at this time that even if Taishi Xiao lost his momentum in the battle in Beijing, the Xiao family would never be defeated by the Han family, all because there was Xiao Huaiyu behind the Xiao family.

Xiao Huaiyu represents military power.

This military power, even if it ensures that the entire Yan Kingdom will not be invaded by foreign enemies, it also ensures that the Xiao family will never disappear from the court of the Yan Kingdom.

Compared with the political structure of other major families, the Xiao family is the most terrifying.

There are great divisions in the court, and there are great generals outside the court.

Taishi's power in the court ensured the material supply of the Northwest Army and Xiao Huaiyu's absolute authority in the Northwest, and Xiao Huaiyu's absolute authority in the Northwest Army ensured that Xiao Taishi's influence in the court was undiminished, and the strength of the Xiao family in the Yan State.

Internal and external forces are dependent on each other and support each other, such a political structure, political power and military power have a strong right to speak, which is incomparable to any other family.

It is true that other major families also have manpower in the Northwest Army, but on the whole, the senior generals are Xiao Huaiyu's cronies, and no one can shake the authority of the Xiao family in the Northwest Army.

After Han Mo returned to the camp, his mind had been locating the current position of the Han family in Yan Kingdom.

The decision-makers of the Han family are naturally led by the Han Xuandao and Han Xuanchang brothers, and now the Han family and the Fan Hu family have formed a three-family alliance, and above the court, it is a tear with the Xiao family, and it can even be said that the Han family's faction is pressing and aggressive towards the Xiao family.

Han Mo was naturally very in awe of his uncle Han Xuandao, and he also knew that Han Xuandao was a very scheming character.

He believed that Han Xuandao must know the most fundamental truth, that is, if he wanted to bring down the Xiao family, not only would he have to suppress the Xiao family's power in the court, but the most important thing was to bring down Xiao Huaiyu, at least not let the Northwest Army become the backstage of the Xiao family.

If this cannot be solved, then even if you have an advantage in the court, on the whole, it will not deal a fatal blow to the Xiao family.

Han Xuandao is shrewd and capable, even he understands this truth, and it is impossible for Han Xuandao not to understand it.

But what Han Mo sees now is that the Han faction is very offensive against the Xiao family in the court, but in terms of the Northwest Army, it seems that there are no means and countermeasures.

This is obviously not in line with Han Xuandao's way of doing things, at least the overall strategy of the Han family now is only aimed at the court and not the army, which is a huge flaw.

Han Mo didn't believe that the Han family's decision-makers had ignored this issue.

The decision-making level of the Han family should know that they are pressing step by step in the court, if they really force the Xiao family to a certain extent, the Han family faction will definitely face pressure from their own military.

Han Xuandao's group of high-level decision-makers can't be stupid regardless of the overall situation, since they dare to press the Xiao family step by step in the court, then Han Mo faintly feels that they may also have unknown plans to deal with the military.

What's that going to look like?

It's just that this time in the Northwest Military Camp, I can't see that the Han family has any countermeasures in the military, but I see that the generals of the Northwest Army have a strong hostility towards the Han family.

This also made Han Mo feel faintly uneasy in the depths of his heart.

……

At dusk, Han Mo was unexpectedly greeted by Xiao Huaiyu and sent someone to invite him to meet him at the general's camp.

Although Han Mo had doubts, since Xiao Huaiyu had summoned, he naturally came to Xiao Huaiyu's camp quickly.

Xiao Huaiyu's camp doesn't look very special, it's just bigger than ordinary people, generally speaking, the general's battalion commander must be surrounded by heavy soldiers, but outside Xiao Huaiyu's tent, there are just four armored warriors, the camp is surrounded by a wooden fence, and there is a large field on the left, with weapon racks, and all kinds of weapons standing on the shelves, which is obviously where Xiao Huaiyu practices martial arts on weekdays.

Outside the big tent, there are two big flagpoles, there are two flags hung on it, one side is written with the word "Yan", and the other side is written with the word "Xiao", the whole general camp looks very random and simple, if you don't know the details, you can't imagine that this is where Xiao Huaiyu, the god of Yan, lives, compared to his prestige and identity, this camp is too simple.

The camp is simple and the guards are scarce, but from here, not only can you see Xiao Huaiyu's life, but also Xiao Huaiyu's strong self-confidence.

As the commander of the Yan Army, it is undeniable that there are countless people and countless forces who want Xiao Huaiyu to completely disappear from this world, and Han Mo can even be sure that there are absolutely as many conspiracies and plans to assassinate Xiao Huaiyu as many as the stars in the night sky.

But Xiao Huaiyu's guard is so simple, and he is not afraid of the various conspiracies he has to face, there is no doubt that the self-confidence of this military god is extremely strong, and what supports this self-confidence is, of course, his extremely powerful super martial arts.

Famous generals of the ten directions, an existence beyond the limits of human beings, and a powerful and unpredictable martial art!

As soon as the guards reported, Xiao Huaiyu's calm and calm voice called Han Mo into the camp.

Han Mo took a deep breath and walked into the camp of the great general Xiao Huaiyu.

Within the battalion commander, it is still very simple.

There was a bed on the left side, and in the center was a large table, which was full of all kinds of books and maps, and near the right side of the tent, there was a huge sand table, which occupied a third of the entire large tent.

Not far from the sand table, there is a huge bookshelf full of books that most generals have a headache at a glance.

Very simple.

But the combination of civil and military.

It also shows that Xiao Huaiyu is a civil and military all-rounder!

Xiao Huaiyu was standing on the edge of the sand table at this time, with his hands behind his back, his slightly thin body, but as stable and powerful as a mountain, standing there quietly, this body was not very dazzling, but there was a very resolute soul.

Han Mo was about to bow his hand, but Xiao Huaiyu said lightly: "Don't be so vain, come and take a look!" When he spoke, he was still looking at the sand table with his hands behind his back, and did not look at Han Mo.

Han Mo was silent for a moment, and in just a moment, he walked quickly to the sand table.

The sand table is chest high, but the area is huge, Han Mo glanced at the sand table, and actually felt that some places were extremely familiar, frowning slightly, but he quickly understood.

Han Mo judged that the landforms displayed on the sand table at this time should include Nanyang County of Qingguo, Linyang County of Yan State and Suiding County of Wei State, which are also relatively sensitive areas for the current war.

The Wei State exited the Tingshui Pass in Suiding County and attacked Nanyang County in the Qing State, while the Yan State did not intervene in the war, but gathered 50,000 troops under the Linyang Pass on the northern line of Linyang County.

These three counties are the places where the troops of the three kingdoms are gathered, and they are naturally extremely important.

The terrain on the sand table is undulating, there are undulating mountains, lakes, plains, and passes, Han Mo saw it in his eyes, and recalled the roads he passed through from Qingguo, which were clearly displayed on this sand table, and what was even more amazing was that according to Han Mo's memory, every river and every hill on the road, this sand table was accurate, without the slightest mistake or omission.

After only a few glances, Han Mo was in awe of the unastonishing famous general in front of him.

Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles!

Now the whole situation seems to be complicated, but standing on the edge of this sand table, it is extremely clear that the battle situation is in full view.

On the sand table, not only the terrain and city of the three counties are clearly restored, but also countless small flags are planted on it, and the chess pieces are a total of three colors, red represents the Yan team, black represents the Wei team, and white represents the Qing team.

At this time, Nanyang Pass on the sand table has already planted a small black flag.

In the territory of Nanyang County, a stretch of mountain range is extremely conspicuous on the sand table, it is the Longshan Mountain Range, the towering Tianya Peak of the Longshan Mountain Range is also very special on it, it is the highest point of the entire sand table.

On the top of the Longshan Mountain Range, there were large and small white chess pieces, and near a large valley in the west, there was a flag that was larger than the other chess pieces, Han Mo knew that it must be the most important valley in the Longshan Mountain Range, and perhaps the main force under Shang Zhongli was deployed in that valley.

"Do you see clearly?" Xiao Huaiyu finally glanced at Han Mo and asked calmly.

Han Mo nodded, "Yes!" ”

"Then you say, will the Wei army advance eastward in the plains on the outskirts of the Longshan Mountain Range, bypass the Longshan Mountain Range, and enter the hinterland of Nanyang County?" Xiao Huaiyu stared at the stretching Longshan Mountains and asked very gently.

Han Mo was stunned, he really couldn't imagine that Xiao Huaiyu would ask himself to discuss the military situation.

He couldn't help but glance at Xiao Huaiyu, a little surprised.

Xiao Huaiyu said lightly: "Don't think about it, what you think, just say it, don't hide it!" ”
