0468 Don't forget the mountain

Heyang refers to the north bank of the river, and as a geographical term, it usually refers to the three military cities located north of Luoyang and across the Yellow River.

These three military cities are the North Middle City located on the north bank of the Yellow River, the Zhongyu City on the sandbar in the middle of the river, and the South City located on the south bank, and these three military cities are collectively known as the Three Cities of Heyang.

Among the three cities, the North Central City was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the Central and Southern Cities were built in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, in order to cope with the confrontation between the east and the west, and the city on the north bank was also expanded in the same period, and the three cities were connected to each other by river bridges, forming an offensive and defensive front across the river.

Because of the existence of the three cities of Heyang, even if the Western Wei occupied the Heluo region, it was not stable, because the Eastern Wei army could fight along the continuous south of the three cities of Heyang at any time. If the Western Wei wanted to establish a foothold in Heluo and then set foot in Hebei, Heyang was also a necessary way, and the Eastern Wei army only needed to hold it to block the northward advance of the Western Wei army.

Therefore, the importance of Heyang to the Eastern Wei Dynasty is not inferior to the importance of Yubi to the Western Wei Dynasty, and it is even more than that of the Yedu Imperial Court. Yuwentai, as Gao Huan's iron CP, can think of capturing Heyang in such a background, which really gives people an unexpected and reasonable feeling.

But the problem is that if the current Western Wei takes Heyang as the target of the attack, it is very likely that it will repeat Gao Huan's mistakes. No, it will definitely be worse than Gao Huan.

Gao Huan was defeated by Yubi, because Wei Xiaokuan, who defended Yubi City, was awesome, not that the Western Wei Dynasty as a whole was awesome.

Although the Western Wei Dynasty has initially completed the integration of Chinese and foreign armies, its strength can only be said to have developed compared to the tragic situation at the end of the Battle of Bishan.

The strategic significance of Heyang lies not only in the geographical location of the great river and the majesty, but also in the continuous flow of Eastern Wei people behind it.

As one of the national defense lifelines of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, not to mention how many troops are stationed at the moment, even if the Western Wei troops suddenly attack and capture, it will inevitably cause the shock of the Eastern Wei State to rush to help.

At that time, the real henchmen of the Eastern Wei regime were no longer Hou Jing, who was in trouble in Henan, but the Western Wei Dynasty, which was in Heyang.

There are still 3,000 nails in the rotten ship, not to mention that the current Eastern Wei Dynasty is far from being a rotten ship, even if you don't talk about the Yedu Imperial Court, the power of the Jinyang Overlord alone should definitely not be underestimated.

Of course, if you look at it from an optimistic point of view, the new defeat of the Jinyang overlord army, Gao Huan's life and death are unknown, and if he encounters an old minister like Hou Jing who can't kill the tail to raise his troops to cause chaos, it will inevitably shake the authority of Gao Cheng, the person who first ruled the palace.

Now the forbidden army of Yedu has been transferred south to quell Hou Jing's rebellion, and the only thing Heyang can rely on is Jinyang's reinforcements. But the Jinyang soldiers are newly defeated and frustrated, and even Jinyang has been plundered and warned, are these soldiers willing to rush to the aid of Heyang, and even if they come to help, how much morale and fighting spirit can they have?

On the other hand, here in the Western Wei Dynasty, under the courage and hard work of Daxingtai for several years, the Chinese and foreign armies were fully prepared, and the overlord gathered millions of stones of food and grain with a single order, which shows that the war potential is huge and the people's hearts are available!

There is a stark difference between friend and foe, and it would be disappointing to not dare to set a grand strategic goal and give it a try.

After Yuwentai put forward this strategic idea, he smiled and looked around at the hall, the look between his eyebrows and eyes was very much raised eyebrows or other meanings, when Hou Jingxin descended a few days ago, he only revealed a little intention to enter Heluo again, and he had already been advised by the generals, and he was not very enthusiastic about it.

But now more than two months have passed, and the Eastern Dynasty has only sent a group of men and horses south to quell the rebellion in Yedu for so long, but the Jinyang Overlord has not made any substantive moves, first of all, it has verified the fact that Gao Huan died, and secondly, his heir Gao Cheng can't take this plate at all.

In this situation, Yuwentai also wants to hear what new reasons the generals have to oppose even if they are unwilling to go along with this plan.

He raised his hand and pointed at Li Tai in the seat, and said with a smile: "Li Shizhong has already gathered more than 3 million stones of grain in the prelude, which is enough to support the consumption of a huge army of 10,000 years. Now the thieves may be slightly mourning because of the death of the high thief, but Hou Jingzhi

Rebellion is a problem of his elbows and armpits, and the people are suspicious and uncomfortable, and they may not be able to work together. Or there is a saying that Hou Jing's apprentice girl is cunning and changeable, but there are also many tenacious disciples in the six squares of Yecheng, and it is difficult to decide the victory or defeat in a short time......."

Yu Wentai not only talked about his current superior and calm situation, but also listed the words that the generals might admonish. But it's okay not to say this, but this calendar shows that he is a little too optimistic about the current situation.

Not to mention anything else, why is the Eastern Wei Dynasty not a mourning soldier? Although Hou Jing was out of the scene, when you took over He Bayue's class, not everyone recognized you wholeheartedly.

As for judging that Hou Jing might be entangled with the counterinsurgents from the south of Yedu for a long time, this is even more unfounded. The Central Forbidden Army of the Northern Wei Dynasty has been weakening for a long time, even if it collapses into the current Eastern Wei and Western Wei, this situation has not been reversed, otherwise it will be your turn to make a fool of yourself?

However, the generals didn't have time to think so much for a while, but when they heard that so much money had been raised, they all subconsciously looked at Li Tai for evidence.

After seeing Li Tai nodding his head to confirm, there was no shortage of people who were already happy, and several Hui and several others all got up and asked for battle, but Li Bi, the governor of the Chinese army, was still sitting in the west, and was not in a hurry to express his position, only looked at Yu Jin, who had been in the hall before.

Not only Li Bi, but in fact, Li Tai was also observing Yu Jin's reaction. The more confusing and varied the situation, the more a person's imagination is tested. Of course, this so-called imagination is not a completely unfounded self-congratulation, but the ability to sort out and summarize various clues and information and extend them.

Li Tai has a foresight of the subsequent trend of events, although some places have undergone certain changes under his influence, but the general trend can still be predicted, so he has his own judgment on the idea put forward by Daxingtai.

But he also very much wanted to hear Yu Jin's views and analysis on this matter, and see how this first-class military and political talent at the moment judged the situation.

After the other generals finished speaking, Yu Jin stood up, but before responding to the Daxingtai, he first looked at Li Tai and said with a straight face: "May I ask Li Shangshu, can you be sure that more than 3 million stone materials and grain can be fully stored in the warehouse in mid-May?"

After hearing this, Li Tai nodded yes, in addition to the grain that has been delivered to the local government for liberation, most of the others are also in his own granaries scattered all over the country, even if the state and county transportation capacity is lost, there are other ways to remedy, of course he can be sure.

After receiving Li Tai's affirmative reply, Yu Jin's demeanor became light and joyful, and he turned to the grand platform in the hall to salute and said: "The minister congratulates the lord, and since the order, all the people in the palace have taken Kuang to support the unification as their own responsibility, and they have worked hard again and again, not afraid of vicious battles, and finally won the giant and the prosperity of the time, if you can take Heyang and enter Hebei, sweep away the puppet dynasty, and break Jinyang, this achievement is unique in the world!"

Yu Wentai heard Yu Jin's exuberant words, and for a while he sat up with some excitement and said quickly, "The general also thinks that this is a good time to forge ahead?"

After hearing this, Yu Jin nodded heavily and said, "If the situation in the world continues to develop according to this, the more chaotic the thief will be, and I will become stronger, the minister really can't think of any reason to hold back! Now you can collect the horses and horses from all directions in the camp, and after all the grain and straw are put into the warehouse, they can be sent to the army, and they can go out of eastern Shaanxi at the end of May......

Li Tai originally thought that Yu Jin would have some different ideas and ideas, but at first he was a little blindly optimistic when he heard his words, and he was a little disappointed at first, but when he listened to it, he felt that it was a little wrong.

Although all his words were in favor of the Daxing Taiwan troops to Heyang, he deliberately made the time and rhythm of the troops very clear, or it may be said that his people were specific, but some of the time points happened to coincide with the time of some subsequent changes in the current situation.

Of course, Yu Jin did not have the ability to be a prophet, but Li Tai listened carefully and could tell that he was procrastinating.

People are too blindly optimistic, often because of insufficient information reception, as well as irrational amplification of their own favorable side and deliberately ignoring some bad variables, which is the current state of Yuwentai. The last time I had this symptom was on the eve of the Battle of Bishan.

Yu Jin may not know what will happen next, but he can be sure that with the passage of time, there will inevitably be many new changes in Henan, and with these new changes, the understanding of the situation will inevitably be clearer

Be clear and make fewer mistakes.

As for directly denying Daxingtai's idea of attacking Heyang, not to mention whether you can come up with convincing arguments, even if you can win with theory, but putting aside the reason, it is equivalent to pointing at Yuwentai's nose and saying that you are not even Gao Huan's son!

"But if you schedule personnel in such a step-by-step manner, it will take nearly two months at the earliest until all the soldiers and horses gather and start to leave, so it is better to make simple scheduling and send a surprise army to the east......

When Yu Jin finished speaking, another general couldn't help but speak.

Without waiting for a cautious answer, Li Bi spoke first: "The righteousness is the trend and the trend of the times, how can the victory or defeat be determined by suddenness? The old man was reckless in the battle of Pishan, but now that the thief's situation has collapsed, it is more appropriate to plan and move later, and calmly send troops."

Speaking of the Battle of Bishan, Yu Wentai felt a pang in his heart, and nodded again and again: "What Captain Li said is exact, plan and then move, calmly dispatch troops, and do not rashly advance."

Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope, the lesson of the battle of Pishan is much more painful than being bitten by a snake, and the time is far less than ten years, mentioning this matter is like a bucket of ice water in the head of the three or nine days for the generals of the Western Wei Dynasty, no matter how enthusiastic they are, they have to calm down.
