476 How bad can it be? (Ask for a commuter pass)
Xiao Min's plan is not only about attacking the city.
Bian Chunliang stayed in Yuezhou for nearly a year, conniving at the wanton plundering and squandering of the army under his command, slaughtering a large number of people, and destroying most of the grain fields when the army and horses came.
This has caused the situation that the hoarding of grain in Yuezhou City has been consumed by them, and it is difficult to support the situation of supporting Bian Chunliang's 100,000 army.
Bian Chunliang had 200,000 troops, about 100,000 of whom were stationed in Yuezhou City, and the remaining 100,000 were scattered and stationed in several cities that had been captured in the rear, continuing to recruit troops and horses to incite people's hearts.
Xiao Min secretly found out that the grain hoarding in Yuezhou City was empty two months ago, Bian Chunliang ordered to let Tanzhou in the rear transport grain supplies, but there was not much grain hoarding in Tanzhou, before the drought in Daozhou, the granaries in several nearby states were empty, and then the displaced people were everywhere, and there was war again, most of the fields were uncultivated, and this year's new grain has not yet reached the time of harvest-
As a result, in the face of Bian Chunliang's urging, Tanzhou could only raise money everywhere to barely maintain Yuezhou's food and salary problem. And because it was "raised" one after another, it always took time to gather the required amount, so they transported grain to Yuezhou once every half month.
Xiao Min had already found out the two secret grain routes from Tanzhou to Yuezhou to transport military rations, and prepared to have people make a detour from Langzhou in the west to attack them from the flank and intercept their salaries.
The next time Tanzhou will transport grain is two days later, Xiao Min has made all preparations for this matter, in his words, this grain interception operation, there is a ninety percent certainty that it can be successful.
Once the grain transportation is intercepted, it will be difficult for Tanzhou to raise enough food in a short period of time, not to mention that the grain transportation is already labor-intensive and time-consuming, so that there will be a shortage of food in Yuezhou City, and Bian Jun is used to being arrogant and profligate, and it is no different from the ruffians and bandits, even if they are only hungry for a day or two, there will be a situation where people's hearts will be shaken.
At that time, Xiao Min will raise 120,000 troops and attack Yuezhou City again.
"It's a workable idea." Chang Sui Ning said: "At that time, Bian Jun will either defend Yuezhou, or abandon Yuezhou and retreat to Tanzhou in the rearββ"
As for going out of the city and fighting to the death to attack Jingzhou, Bian Chunliang should know that he does not have this condition at present.
Compared with sticking to Yuezhou, Chang Suining believes that Bian Chunliang is more likely to retreat to Tanzhou, although Bian Chunliang is brutal and cruel, acting violently and extremely, but he is also good at judging the situation, if he is not forced to have no way out, he should not choose to die and break the net.
After Chang Suining explained his speculation, he said: "If this plan goes well, General Xiao will definitely be able to take back Yuezhou smoothly." β
And at the lowest cost.
After getting this affirmation, Xiao Min breathed a sigh of relief, as if his schoolwork had been affirmed by Mr., and his heart couldn't help but be much more stable.
Chang Suining's eyes became more and more stable, she looked at Xiao Min and said, "General Xiao loves soldiers like a son, which is admirable. β
Although Xiao Min failed to regain Yuezhou in the first two battles, but each battle was not fought in vain, he fought steadily and steadily, step by step, he knew himself and his opponent, and at the same time carefully laid out, every step can be seen the patience and planning of a main general, as well as the love of soldiers.
Although there is a saying that mercy is not in charge of soldiers, but there is no conflict between loving soldiers and using soldiers without permission many times, and Dasheng still has such a good general, which is really a great luck.
Xiao Min said: "The envoy of Chang Jie said that soldiers can die, but not in vain, and it is better not to die." β
This sentence touched Xiao Min a lot, and he always kept it in mind.
Since the separation of Jiangdu, Xiao Min has fought a few more battles and calmed down several chaos. After coming to Jingzhou, he witnessed Li Xian's method of using soldiers, and he did not dare to disagree.
"Of course, you can take back Yuezhou City this time, but if you want to kill Bian Chunliang's army in one fell swoop, you can't." Chang Suining said bluntly: "When General Xiao is pursuing with victory, remember to stay vigilant, and not rush too deep, so as not to provoke the wrath of the trapped beast, or become a trapped beastββ"
"Bian's army is strong and deep-rooted, and it takes the people's will as a blade, and after Yuezhou is Dongting and Tanzhou, where Bian Chunliang's retreat and cover are all about, and if you want to kill them, it is destined to not be a day's work."
Chang Sui Ning said this, not to despise Xiao Min, Bian Chunliang's momentum has been achieved, it is not comparable to the extraordinary chaotic army, and it is not even comparable to Xu Zhengye at the beginning, this battle is fought by her, and there is no possibility of a decisive battle.
Xiao Min nodded: "Yes, Xiao Min remember." β
Chang Suining picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "But I believe that General Xiao's retrieval of Yuezhou this time is the beginning of turning the situation around." β
"Excuse the auspicious words of the regular festival!" Xiao Min drank tea like drinking, and drank it all in one go.
Next, Chang Suining reminded Xiao Min of a few details that need to be paid attention to, and asked emphatically: "I wonder if there are factions in the army now?" β
This is equivalent to asking about the current relationship between Han Gong Li Xian and Xiao Min.
Chang Sui Ning didn't ask, but when he asked, it seemed to break the dam in Xiao Min's heart, and the ocean-like bitter water suddenly flowed in.
In officialdom, how can everything go well, as a mature adult, just try to deal with it, and you don't have to talk about grievances with others-
But at this moment, facing Chang Suining, Xiao Min couldn't control the grievances in his heart, and he even felt that his grievances were about to be shattered.
He said that Li Xian was dissatisfied with him openly and secretly, and made many difficulties.
Chang Suining frowned when she heard this, she had little contact with Li Xian, and naturally she didn't know much, and her deepest impression was that the other party slaughtered the warriors in Luoyang last year, and wanted to sacrifice her prisoners of war to the sky-
This is naturally not a good impression, so she only paid attention to asking Xiao Min about Li Xian's attitude at this time.
After listening to Xiao Min's words, Chang Suining's bad impression of Li Xian became more and more unbearable.
Xiao Min said it all the time, and finally said: "This trip to attack Yuezhou, he didn't bent on making things difficult again, and all major matters are left to me to decide......"
"Something is unusual, maybe it's more noteworthy." Chang Sui Ning said: "At this time, the good policy has been decided, so we must be extra careful of possible changes. β
And most of the changes are in people's hearts, and people's hearts are always the most difficult to control.
This is one of the reasons why we can't just talk about the war on paper, because in reality, most of the time, people's hearts will not be as closely and strictly implemented as set in the military book.
Especially when the people in Xiao Min's army are not aligned, we must be more careful of the occurrence of accidents.
Chang Suining thought about it for a while, and simply said bluntly: "General Xiao had better let people secretly keep an eye on everywhere, especially the movements of Han Gong." β
Seeing Xiao Min's expression, she said: "This is indeed a means against the enemy, but at such a juncture, for the sake of the overall situation, it should be safe, and everything will be said after Yuezhou is recovered." β
Xiao Min no longer hesitated to respond: "It's okay." β
Even if this move will be noticed and questioned by Li Xian, and even intensify the conflict, he must try his best to be safe.
After making this decision, Xiao Min was visibly relieved again, many times, he is a legalist person, so he will always set many restrictions for himself due to environmental reasons, and there will often be blind spots that he can't take into account, but when he temporarily jumps out of that environment, he will feel suddenly enlightened and have nothing to do.
He has always known that as a person of average talent, it is important to remain humble, and he has always been a person who needs advice from others, of course, if he can be convinced.
And the girl in front of him who is surprising everywhere is the most convincing person in the world.
After everything was decided, Chang Suining said: "After that, if General Xiao needs anything, he can send a message to Huainan Dao at any time." β
This sentence made Xiao Min's heart warm, but he also panicked.
There is no reason for the panic, and Gai's words are very similar to the conclusion.
ββ¦β¦ Is the envoy going back? Xiao Min hurriedly said: "It's not easy to see each other, so let's sit for a while?" β
God knows how long it has been since he's been so relaxed and sunny, woo!
Xiao Min wiped a handful of tears in his heart.
In his opinion, Chang Jiezhi has a very rare ability, as if as long as he stands with her, no matter how difficult the road ahead, it will not make people feel depressed and suffocated. It was a solid and upward ability, and everyone who was around her would be affected.
Although there were many hardships and killings in the war, when I recalled the days when I fought side by side with her, I was more at ease, calm, and fearless.
This is also a portrayal of Xiao Min's mood at the moment, and he hopes to stay in such a state of mind for a while longer.
Chang Suining came here after taking care of all the affairs of Anzhou, and there was no urgency, so he continued to sit down and talk to Xiao Min.
Xiao Min's desire to express and listen is very strong, from the overall situation to family life, and from Huainan Road to Jingshi. It wasn't until the light appeared in the east that he reluctantly got up and said goodbye.
Shepherd's cabbage led people to put away the mat and tea stove.
At the time of parting, Chang Sui Ning suddenly asked Xiao Min: "General Xiao has ever remembered that you and I made a bet on whether Xu Zhengye would change the route to Luoyang, and after General Xiao lost the bet, he owed me nothing to do?" β
Xiao Min was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and then smiled: "Xiao remembers!" β
At that time, he made a bet with Chang Niangzi, and agreed that the person who lost should agree to a request from the person who won, and he also said at that time that after he won, he would let Chang Niangzi guide him to the knife technique...... As a result, he lost.
But in the end, the envoy still gave him serious advice.
Recalling this incident, Xiao Min couldn't help but sigh that a person's good impression of another person is never born out of thin air.
Xiao Min smiled sincerely and said: "If there is anything that needs Xiao's service, don't say one, just say a hundred." β
He believed that the demands of the envoys must be reasonable.
"Haven't thought of it yet." Chang Suining said with a smile: "So after this farewell, General Xiao must take care, otherwise I will break General Xiao's promise." β
Xiao Min was moved in his heart, and when he said it, the envoy was still concerned about his safety.
The little girl in front of him is much younger, but the burden on his shoulders is much heavier, and he has a lot more things to do.
Xiao Min unconsciously turned red at the corners of his eyes, and clenched his fists heavily: "Please take care of the envoy of the regular festival!" β
After saying goodbye to each other, Chang Suining got on the horse.
Xiao Min insisted on watching her leave where she was.
Rays of golden light burst out of the clouds, and the girl rode her horse, facing the rising sun, and left along the golden Hanshui River.
β¦β¦
The news that Cao Hong, the assassin of Anzhou, had declared a rebellion and wanted to conspire with Bian Chunliang in Jingzhou reached Jingshi, and the courtiers were angry and relieved because of the thrilling result.
If Cao Hongxuan is really allowed to attack Jingzhou, there will be chaos...... Fortunately, Chang Sui Ning stopped this incident in time.
Although it is indeed a matter of duty, Chang Suining's move has also made some officials who usually question her dissenting intentions have a trace of doubts about their own doubts.
If this woman really had different intentions, how could she be so active in preventing the rebellion in Jingzhou?
Although it is not easy to be easily deceived by appearances, this appearance is also worth pondering.
Wei Shuyi, who was standing beside Mrs. Chu, noticed the "introspection" of the officials beside him, smiled slightly and said nothing-the world always misunderstood her, but it was easy to go from one misunderstanding to another.
In the urgent report delivered by Anzhou, there was also a confession from Cao Hongxuan's subordinates.
There is a sentence in it that explains the reason why Cao Hong proclaimed rebellion, and the Tao is "unwilling to succumb to the envoys of the female festival".
When the empress heard this, she sneered in her heart.
These people always like to act under the guise of being dissatisfied with women, as if this can make their selfish actions more tenable, but the world is very useful, because in the eyes of most people, this is also a kind of "fighting for the dignity and interests of the group", which is enough to resonate and empathize with them.
But what about the "unwillingness to succumb"? In the end, isn't there still only an ignorant head left, and she was sent to Jingshi, a female king.
Sure enough, it was the right decision to let Ah Shang take over as the envoy of Huainan Province.
Ah Shang really did not disappoint her mother.
On the morning of the same day, the report of the Yuezhou war that Li Xian sent back quickly was also presented to the empress.
It said that this time he killed more than 10,000 Bian troops, and he would be able to recover Yuezhou City in a few days.
Mrs. Chu scoffed at this, so why didn't he wait for Yuezhou City to be recovered before reporting? At this time, the card sent back this redundant "good news", which was clearly to cover up the suspicion of negligence about the danger of Jingzhou.
After the early dynasty dispersed, hundreds of officials left in pairs.
Hubu Shangshu Zhan Mian sighed in a low voice: "Chang Jie treats the imperial court, and he is really loyal......"
He had thought before that a little girl who was thinking about saving money for the household department everywhere, no matter how bad it was, how bad could it be?
Mrs. Chu didn't say anything.
Is that what she is guarding is faithfulness? It was clearly her own Dao heart.
The teacher and student stepped on the straight palace road, and were talking, when they suddenly saw a fast horse galloping in front of them.
Zhan Mian hurriedly escorted Taifu to the side.
It was the horse that carried the urgent message, and the soldier who carried the message on the horse was dusty, his face was tense, and he galloped all the way to the gate of the forbidden palace, and then abandoned his horse and galloped.
"Report!"
"Longyou Dao Emergency!"
"Northwest Frontier, Beidi Movement!"
"Beidi Tiecai has invaded the border from the western defense line and has broken through Yizhou!"
The Holy Book Emperor suddenly got up from the dragon chair and immediately asked, "Where is Cui Jing!" β
The soldier said: "Governor Cui Dadu led his troops from the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate to rush to help, and they have reached Yumen Pass!" β
The Holy Book Emperor closed his eyes for a moment, and slowly sat back, so that it was still timely, at least the Jade Gate Pass had not been lost!
The emperor clutched the relief on the dragon chair with one hand, and cold anger oozed from his eyes: "...... Beidi thief, the heart of my great sheng is really immortal! (End of chapter)
