Taiyuan City stands on the flat ground, like a mountain peak rising from the ground, majestic and tall.

On the tower of the city gate, the flag of the word "Han" flies in the wind.

Shi Xian, the governor of Shanxi, led officials of all sizes to greet the royal driver at the gate of the city. With the sound of wheels, Shi Xian and the officials lowered their heads.

Surrounded by everyone, the Son of Heaven Luan Yu stopped at the gate of the city. Wu Nian got out of the car and looked at the officials in front of him with a smile.

"Long live the Son of Heaven."

Shi Xian led the crowd to kneel down and kowtowed.

"Flat. Shi Qing. Look up and let the widow see. Wu Nian raised his hands and said weakly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The officials stood up neatly, then raised their heads and looked at Wu Nian just right. Without looking at Wu Nian, he can also let Wu Nian see their faces.

"Thin, dark. It's been a hard year. Wu Nian looked at Shi Xian's appearance and said. Then he turned his head and said to the eunuch who followed him: "Give Governor Shi a copy of the mountain treasures that the widow made." Also, bring the 50-year-old wild ginseng. ”

"Yes." The eunuch answered, turned and went down. After turning back, there was a delicate rectangular box in his hand.

Wu Nian stretched out his hand to take the box, handed it to Shi Xian, and said, "Don't shirk, accept it." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shi Xian was about to open his mouth to excuse himself, but when he heard this, he had to bow down and reach out to take the wild ginseng.

"You've worked hard. The widow has prepared a gift for you. Wu Nian smiled and nodded, and then looked at the officials in Shanxi, all of them were dark, and they were all thin overall.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The officials thanked them neatly.

Wu Nian talked to them for a while, and surrounded by some of the Ouchi guards, he entered the city and came to a mansion prepared by Shi Xian.

Inside the lobby. As soon as everyone sat down, Shi Xian clenched his fists and asked, "Dare to ask Your Majesty." From which way do you want to attack Guanzhong? ”

Wu Nian didn't tell him in advance, not because he didn't trust, but because there was no need to tell him. Now that he asked, Wu Nian also replied briskly: "Cross the river from Longmen." ”

Although the Yellow River is very long from Shanxi, there are few crossings suitable for large-scale river crossing.

The first is to go south from Fenglingdu and attack Tongguan.

This is the main entrance.

The second is to cross the river from Puzhou and attack Puzhou.

This is the side door.

The third is to cross the river from Longmen.

It looks like there are three portals, but in fact there are only two portals to choose from.

Since Fengling crossed the river, and had to attack Tongguan, the Han army had no way to advance, and then retreated to be made dumplings by the Luoyang army.

The only ones left are Puzhou and Longmen. Lu Jing, the general army of Chang'an, set up 10,000 water troops in two places and built a water village.

In terms of difficulty, the gantry is a little smaller.

There is also a heavy city in Puzhou, Puzhou City, which is not easy to attack. Moreover, Puzhou is closer to Chang'an, and Chang'an soldiers and horses are easier to rescue.

But the most important thing is the old example of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Li Yuan raised troops from Shanxi to attack Chang'an, and he took Longmendu.

Shi Xian shook his head when he heard this, then showed a serious look, and said with a fist: "Ministers and Shanxi officials, I am willing to do my best." Whatever the matter, please Your Majesty do not hesitate to tell the ministers. ”

"Shi Qing is loyal, but this battle doesn't need Qing to worry about. Qing still focused on government affairs and cured Shanxi. ”

Wu Nian said with a smile.

"Yes." Shi Xian was a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to bow down.

Wu Nian quickly sent Shi Xian away, and asked people to take the map and watch it.

The black-and-white landscape map is rudimentary, but it is sufficient. The Yellow River is very long, and the only places suitable for large-scale crossings by the army are Longmen and Puzhou.

But there are other small ferries.

These small ferries are all garrisoned by Chu soldiers and horses, and it is not easy to smuggle people unnoticed.

Wu Nian watched it for a long time, drank a cup of tea, and ate a few pastries. Suddenly, he turned to the Hojo clan and said, "Go and find Zhang Zhen." ”

"Yes." The Hojo clan bowed down and turned to go down.

"Your Majesty." After a long time, Zhang Zhencai, under the leadership of the Hojo clan, entered the lobby and saluted Wu Nian.

"Call Uncle." Wu Nian said with a smile.

"Uncle." Zhang Zhen screamed honestly.

"Hmm. There's one thing. It's dangerous, but it's the winner. Wu Nian said.

"Please send me from my uncle." Zhang Zhen immediately came to his senses and said with his head held high.

"Hmm." Wu Nian nodded and beckoned Zhang Zhen to come over. Raising his right hand, he pointed to the map and said, "This battle." The widow repairs the plank road and secretly crosses the Chen Cang. attracted the eyes of the Chu Dynasty to Bianliang. Take the lead, but if the widows can't quickly break through the Yellow River and enter Shaanxi. ”

"This opportunity has been lost."

"Lu Jing is a person who has long heard of it. Keep it even. After the outnumbered army arrived at Longmen, it was difficult to break through the Chu army's water village as soon as possible. ”

"And after the Chu army gets the news, the Chu army in Puzhou and the Chu army in Chang'an will rescue Longmen as soon as possible."

"You have a thousand families with you. In this section of the Yellow River, search for a ferry port that is not garrisoned by the Chu army, learn from Wang Baxian, and smuggle it over. Then you fight flexibly and block enemy reinforcements. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Nian's face showed a serious look and said: "The Yellow River is very long, and it is impossible for the Chu army to guard all the sections. But where there is no guard, most of the wind is high and the waves are urgent. Crossing the river is dangerous. It is also sinister for the lone army to go deep into Shaanxi. ”

"You have to be mentally prepared."

"Uncle, don't worry. I will definitely enter the sea and make waves in Shaanxi. Zhang Zhen became even more excited when he heard this, and clasped his fists and saluted.

"Go ahead."

Wu Nian smiled on his face and patted him on the shoulder.

Don't look at this kid as belligerent, but also calm and cautious. This kid is doing things, he is relieved.

Zhang Zhen nodded, immediately hugged Wu Nian's fist, turned around and left.

"There is a usage of a big army for a big army. Small armies, there are also usages of small armies. The key is to break the eggshell without seams. Then see the stitches. ”

"Lu Jing. Lu Jing, you are known as a turtle. Leading the troops to fight is peaceful and stable. ”

"But in other words. Defense is just passively beaten, how can it last long? ”

Wu Nian stared at the map in front of him, a sneer on his face.

After looking at the map for a while, Wu Nian asked the palace maid to prepare toiletries, planning to go to the bedroom to take a nap.

A eunuch barged in from outside, bent down and reported, "Your Majesty." Mrs. Shi asked to see her. ”

"Who is Madame Shi?" Wu Nian was a little confused and asked.

"It's the governor's wife." The eunuch hurriedly added.

Wu Nian understood, but it was very strange. Shi Xian's wife is also the lady of the commandment.

But it is normal for Mrs. Decree to enter the palace to see the queen.

Coming to see the emperor, that's really abnormal.

However, the people came. Always to see. Wu Nian put away his distracting thoughts and said, "Please." ”
