Chapter 138: Outside, the King's Orders Are Affected...
In the former Anhou Mansion in Shangguanli, Liu Sheng, the ninth son of the emperor, and Shen Tujia, the prime minister, reached an agreement on 'taking medicine on time and drinking half a bowl of honey water'.
In the main hall of the Xuanshu Room of Weiyang Palace, the Son of Heaven Qi and the freshly baked Taiwei Zhou Yafu were also busy making final exchanges and communications on the matter of going out to counterinsurgency.
It's just that the first time he saw Zhou Yafu, Tianziqi did not go straight to the point as Zhou Yafu expected;
Instead, he came to the side of the hall leisurely and stood in front of a steel lock soft armor that emitted cold light all over his body.
"Let's take a look;"
"This chain mail, but I spent a lot of effort to get it."
The Son of Heaven exclaimed, which provoked Zhou Yafu to hurry forward.
After looking at the chain mail inside and out, and reaching out to touch it, Zhou Yafu nodded with joy.
"This kind of armor is really suitable for infantry equipment!"
"—If Your Majesty could use such a ······"
"Oh, chain mail;"
"If Your Majesty can use such chain mail to equip an elite infantry of about 5,000 people, then the hundreds of thousands of rebels of Liu Bi and Liu Wu are just a group of rabble."
Hearing Zhou Yafu's words, the Son of Heaven raised his head proudly, and was about to say something more, so as to show off;
But subconsciously glanced at the side, but saw that Zhou Yafu's gaze was full of seriousness and longing, and Tianzi Qi could only pout his lips and flick his sleeves angrily.
"Five thousand?"
"Hey!"
"—In the whole world, there are only two !! in total"
"Even this one, it took me a lot of effort to grab ······"
"Ahem, I just won it!"
The tone was full of annoyance, and he saw the Son of Heaven turn around in a huff, pick up the steps and walk up the imperial steps, and sit on the royal couch with a smash.
At the foot of the imperial staircase, hearing Tianzi Qi's complaint, Zhou Yafu turned sideways again and looked up and down on the chain mail;
After a long while, Zhou Yafu reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and said with some regret: "It's a pity ······"
"It's a pity~"
"If this chain mail is not made of steel, but copper, Your Majesty may be able to order Shaofu to make thousands of such chain mail."
"With such chain mail, not to mention the rebel thieves under Liu Bi and Liu Wu, it is the Hun thieves in the north, perhaps, you can also fight head-on!"
"It's a pity ······"
Seeing Zhou Yafu staring directly at the chain mail, he sighed with regret, and Tianziqi also lowered his head a little depressed.
- Isn't it?
- Just such a pair of chain mail, it costs a full fifty pounds of fried steel!
——Shaofu's annual steel production is only enough to make forty such chain mail!
"The ······ of the Loser"
"Loser, ······"
"What a loser!"
The more he thought about it for a while, the more angry he became, and the more he took a step back, the more he thought about it, the more he lost it, and in anger, Tianzi Qi clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth secretly on the couch.
After a long while, the Son of Heaven finally adjusted from his anger, and then he pretended to be indifferent and cast his gaze on Zhou Yafu, who was still salivating at the chain mail.
"How?"
"Like it or not?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came out, Zhou Yafu turned his head sharply!
When he saw the royal couch, Tianzi Qi's meaningful smile, saw Zhou Yafu hurriedly jump forward again!
"This!"
"What's so embarrassing about that······"
said so, but Zhou Yafu's movements were extremely fast!
Before Tianziqi on the couch could react, the upper body of the chain mail had already been put on his body by Zhou Yafu.
Xu is not enough to put on it, Zhou Yafu still lowered his head, turned his waist left and right, and did not forget to muttering things like 'true fit'.
Seeing that Zhou Yafu said no, but his body was so honest, Tianziqi couldn't help but laugh jokingly.
"Look at your little bit of ······"
"-I've lent it to you~"
"When the battle is over, I have to return it untouched."
Tianzi Qiman said lightly, but he did not take Zhou Yafu's attention away from the chain mail that was already worn on his body;
Without raising his head, he replied 'obey' and continued to put on the chain mail.
just sat upright on the couch, watching Zhou Yafu under the imperial stairs bow his head for a while, support his waist for a while, and even lie directly on the ground for a while, wearing the lower half of the chain mail;
When Zhou Yafu put on the set of chain mail and took it off again, Tianzi Qicai shook his head and got up from the imperial couch with a wry smile.
Beckoning to Zhou Yafu slightly, he saw Zhou Yafu cautiously turning sideways, carefully 'packing' the set of chain mail, and organizing it into a package that could be picked up and run at any time, and then trotted up the royal steps and came to the side of Tianzi Qi.
After the Son of Heaven Qi sat down on the royal couch first, he motioned to Zhou Yafu to sit down beside the imperial couch.
After the monarchs and ministers sat down, Tianzi Qi's relaxed and freehand face finally surged with a solemnity that should have appeared a long time ago.
"What do you think of Liu Bi and Liu Wu's rebels?"
"How should this battle of Suiyang be fought in order to achieve victory?"
Seeing that the Son of Heaven was asking about business, Zhou Yafu hurriedly straightened his figure, and between his eyebrows, he couldn't help but bring a solemn look.
"Your Majesty."
"The situation in Suiyang, the minister has already understood."
"——Right now, the more than 300,000 troops of Liu Bi and Liu Wu are all gathered under Suiyang City;"
"In addition, before, these more than 300,000 rebels set out from Chu State and marched all the way west, and the cities, counties and counties along the way collapsed at the touch of a button, which made the rebels' military spirit and morale great!"
"Therefore, the minister thinks that if the reinforcements led by the minister go directly east from Chang'an, go east from Hangu Pass, pass through Luoyang and Xingyang, and finally enter Suiyang from the west gate of Suiyang, it is completely meaningless."
said confidently, Zhou Yafu's temperament also gave birth to some indescribable and unclear things.
That's a kind of ······
It's like next, in the field that Zhou Yafu wants to talk about, looking at the whole world, no one can be more proficient and powerful than Zhou Yafu with absolute confidence!
"In the past few years, the Chang'an court has long built Suiyang City into a solid city."
"——In terms of the ability to resist foreign enemies, the difficulty of breaking through Suiyang City is probably not as easy as breaking through Chang'an!"
"In Suiyang City, there are more than 100,000 or 200,000 Liang troops, which is enough to resist the 300,000 rebels of Liu Bi and Liu Wu;"
"The granary in Suiyang has enough grain and grass for the soldiers in the city to eat for three years, and there will definitely be no problems due to the shortage of military food."
"So the current Suiyang City, confronted by King Liang inside the city and Liu Bi and Liu Wu outside the city, is actually evenly matched, and no one can help anyone."
"In such a situation, if the reinforcements led by the minister also enter Suiyang City and cooperate with King Liang's army, it will only make Suiyang City more difficult to attack;"
"For the Suiyang battle situation and the overall situation of the world, it cannot play a key role at all."
Hearing Zhou Yafu's words, Tianzi Qi's serious face couldn't help but swell with a satisfied smile.
But Tianzi Qi did not rush to speak, but made a vague expression of 'I think so too', and motioned for Zhou Yafu to continue.
Seeing that Tianziqi seemed to agree with his point of view, the look on Zhou Yafu's face became more and more confident.
After a moment of silence, he raised his head and said his battle plan without hesitation.
"The minister does not plan to lead the army from Hangu Pass in the east to Suiyang!"
"The minister thinks that he should go south, pass through Lantian, walk out of Guanzhong from Wuguan in the south, and then make a detour from the side, and appear in Luoyang without warning!"
"When the rebels were shocked by this, the ministers set out from Luoyang again, but they did not directly support Suiyang."
"Instead, it bypassed Suiyang from the north and camped in Changyi, north of Suiyang."
"In this way, the Guanzhong reinforcements led by Youchen are eyeing the north side of the battlefield, and even if the rebels of Liu Bi and Liu Wu want to attack Suiyang to the west, they will inevitably be distracted at all times to guard the north side of the battlefield."
"——If Liu Bi and Liu Wu attack Suiyang with all their might, Nachen will lead the army into the battlefield and raid the flanks of the rebels!"
"If Liu Bi and Liu Wu attack the ministers with all their might, then the king of Liang will come out of Suiyang City, and he will still attack the flank of the rebels."
"Whatever the choice, the rebels will be in a dilemma because of the risk of a surprise attack on the flanks."
"When Liu Wei and Liu Wu's rebels can't attack Suiyang City for a long time and their morale is low, the minister will send a light cavalry all the way to raid the rebels' grain road!"
"As long as the grain supply is cut off, the rebel army, which is already demoralized, will also collapse······
As Zhou Yafu said these few words, an extremely grand strategic marching map immediately appeared in Tianziqi's mind.
This also made Tianzi Qi raise his head slightly, squint his eyes slightly, and deduce Zhou Yafu's marching route in his mind.
"Starting from Chang'an, go south to Lantian first, and exit from Wuguan ······"
"Suddenly appeared in Luoyang, shaking the hearts of the rebels, but not supporting Suiyang ······"
"Take a detour to Changyi, north of Suiyang, clear the wilderness, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight······"
"When the time is ripe, surprise attack the rebels' grain routes and cut off the enemy's retreat·········"
In the huge Xuan Room Hall, the whispering of the Son of Heaven sounded, which provoked Zhou Yafu to straighten up again, and between his eyebrows, there was also a little doubt.
But what made Zhou Yafu feel overjoyed was that as Tianziqi's closed eyes slowly opened, what appeared on Tianziqi's face at the same time was a heartfelt smile that reached the bottom of his eyes······
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Taiwei has such a plan, I will be completely relieved!!"
Tianzi Qi said 'yes' several times, and finally let a big stone in Zhou Yafu's heart fall to the ground, and then he also showed a relaxed smile, and nodded with a smile at Tianzi Qi.
——Regarding the rebellion launched by Liu Bi, the king of Wu, and Liu Wu, the king of Chu, Zhou Yafu's only doubt is: Will his tactical plan be supported by Tianziqi?
After all, Zhou Yafu's plan has a bit of a meaning of 'using King Liang as bait and sacrificing the army of Liang to demolish the morale of the rebels'.
Previously, Zhou Yafu was really not sure: for his plan to pit the king of Liang, would Tianzi Qi be furious?
But judging from Tianziqi's reaction, Zhou Yafu's slightly 'unkind' strategic plan did not arouse the slightest anger of Tianziqi.
Not only did he feel angry because of this, but Tianziqi's next words made Zhou Yafu, who thought that Tianziqi and Liu Wu, the king of Liang, were 'brothers and sisters', felt at a loss······
"Just do as the captain says!"
"——Starting from Chang'an, do not go east, but take a detour to the south, pass through Lantian, go out of Wuguan, and then detour to Luoyang outside Hangu Pass!"
saw that the Son of Heaven nodded appreciatively, reaffirming Zhou Yafu's plan;
Then, he began to formulate a detailed deadline for Zhou Yafu's plan.
It's just that, unlike in the past, the deadline of 'must be before the xx day', the deadline set by the Son of Heaven for Zhou Yafu is really a bit different······
"What I say next is not only related to the safety of the temple and the community, but even whether the temple and the society can still be peaceful after a hundred years."
"Therefore, my next words, every word, the captain must remember in mind!"
He gave an extremely serious command, and when Zhou Yafu nodded with a stern expression, he saw Tianzi Qi get up from the couch.
took heavy steps and came to Zhou Yafu's side step by step, but Tianzi Qi did not sit down directly;
Instead, he squatted down in front of Zhou Yafu, slapped his hands heavily on Zhou Yafu's shoulders, and then leaned his upper body forward slightly;
looked straight into the depths of Zhou Yafu's eyes, and his forehead couldn't be directly attached to Zhou Yafu's forehead.
"Previously, my order to the Taiwei was that within seven days, he must lead the army and set out from Chang'an;"
"—But now, I want to tell the Captain: I must set off from Chang'an in seven days!"
"—not too late, never too early!"
"-It must be seven days later!"
"-Not a day early, not half a day early!!"
The gloomy tone of voice made Zhou Yafu stunned, although he didn't understand Tianziqi's intentions very well, he hurriedly nodded subconsciously.
For Zhou Yafu, obeying orders has long been an instinct engraved in the depths of his soul.
"Just now, the Taiwei told me: I plan to go south, pass through Lantian, walk out of Guanzhong from Wuguan, and make a detour to Luoyang;"
"——What I want to tell the Taiwei is: Starting from Chang'an, passing through Lantian and Wuguan, all the way to Luoyang, the Taiwei must be every step of the way!"
"—Don't rush it!"
"—Along the way, be careful of the rebel ambush!"
"-If you can, counting from the day you set off from Chang'an, within twenty days, the army led by the Taiwei will not appear in Luoyang······"
Just promised Tianziqi that 'one day is not early, one day is not late, and the army will go out in seven days', and when he heard Tianziqi's inexplicable and wonderful entrustment, Zhou Yafu only became more and more at a loss.
But in the end, instinct still triumphed over reason, allowing Zhou Yafu to nod his head again.
It is reasonable to be careful to ambush along the way, and to be steady·······
While thinking about it, a sudden tingling pain came from his shoulders, which provoked Zhou Yafu to hurry back to his senses;
But less than a foot away before they met, the Son of Heaven looked at Zhou Yafu's gaze, and it was even more faintly fierce!
"Just now, the Taiwei told me: After leading the army to Suiyang, he does not plan to directly support Suiyang, but plans to go to Changyi north of Suiyang, and clear the wilderness with strong walls;"
"When Suiyang was attacked by the rebels with all their might, the captain planned to raid the rebels' flank."
"—But I'll tell the Captain!"
"—Absolutely, in any case! Absolutely never support Suiyang City!! ”
"-Even if Suiyang is broken and King Liang is dead, the army of the Taiwei stationed in Changyi must not have even a single soldier to support Suiyang City!!!!!"
In an extremely resolute, even resolute and somewhat frightening tone, saying this last sentence of entrustment, Tianzi Qi had already widened his eyes and stared viciously at the depths of Zhou Yafu's gaze!
The hands that are only used to read the folds and concubines in the harem on weekdays are like a pair of eagle claws at this moment, tightly gripping Zhou Yafu's shoulders!
At this time, no matter how stupid Zhou Yafu was, no matter how much he took 'obeying orders' as his duty, he finally realized that something was wrong.
With a look full of doubt, he looked at Tianzi Qi and posed with a "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" With this expression, Zhou Yafu couldn't help but panic a little in his heart.
- This!
- Tianzi Qi's instructions are clearly saying: Let King Liang fend for himself, it is best to die!
Do you really want to do that·······
Queen Mother, can you agree?
People in the world, can you agree?
Even in the end, even Tianzi Qi will probably stand up and ask Zhou Yafu to 'give an explanation'······
Feeling the horror that gradually revealed in Zhou Yafu's gaze, Tianzi Qi finally let go of his hands;
The round eyes also quietly moved away from Zhou Yafu.
He stood up with a gloomy expression, put his hands behind his back, and looked at Zhou Yafu in front of him, still kneeling in disbelief.
"In the next seven days, the Queen Mother will summon the Captain;"
"For all the requests made by the Queen Mother, the Captain must agree unconditionally."
"But after the expedition, all the orders issued by the Chang'an court, the captain, must not be followed!"
"- In this battle, there is only one duty of the captain!"
"——Stick to Changyi and wait for the opportunity!"
"—As soon as the fighter plane appears, immediately raid the rebel grain route and end this rebellion in one fell swoop!"
Without hesitation, the Son of Heaven took a deep breath, leaned down, and helped Zhou Yafu up from the ground.
When Zhou Yafu got up at a loss, Tianzi Qi still looked at Zhou Yafu in front of him with that gloomy gaze that was extremely cold, even so cold that it sent chills down his spine.
"After the Tai Lieutenant goes on the expedition, there will be many people in the court who slander the Tai Lieutenant;"
"The Empress Dowager will also issue an edict ordering the Captain to immediately send troops to support Suiyang;"
"—Even I am likely to send an edict to force the Taiwei to support King Liang."
"By that time, Captain, you should know what to do, right?"
The meaningful words only caused Zhou Yafu to move his lips blankly, and then subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
saw Tianzi Qi bow his head with a gloomy expression, took Zhou Yafu's hand, and put his palm upward;
Fingers wrote something on Zhou Yafu's palm, and those extremely cold eyes were always locked on Zhou Yafu's face, which was still stunned.
In the palm of Zhou Yafu's hand, he wrote down the words he wanted to say, but couldn't say it, Tianzi Qi withdrew his hand and glanced at Zhou Yafu deeply.
Then, the Son of Heaven Qicai turned around indifferently and walked in the direction of the apse by himself.
And after Tianzi Qi left, it was clear that no one was holding his hand, but Zhou Yafu's horrified gaze was still tightly locked on his palm, which was still hanging in mid-air·······
"Will be ······· outside"
"The king, the king's destiny is not subject to ··········"
