172 Stratagem 2
Liu Bingyun's analysis is still very reasonable, which is also what Lin Jianyue is worried about.
"But if the Wuwei army attacks Chenzhou, it is impossible for Li Chongshan not to Kaifeng Mansion or come to Luoyang, when Chenzhou is attacking and defending, Pu Jinzhong will still move, so isn't it closer and faster for Li Chongshan to destroy Pu Jinzhong?"
Liu Bingyun said confidently: "We also have 100,000 elite cavalry now, and we may not be able to fight in the wild, as long as we are vigilant, we can still run." Yingchang Mansion, Yancheng, and Chenzhou finished glyphs threaten Kaifeng Mansion in three places on the west and south sides of Kaifeng Mansion, where Li Fei's 80,000 cavalry troops can be stationed and evaded, as long as Li Chongshan goes south to Chenzhou, Li Fei will go out to threaten his back road and Kaifeng Mansion, take him in circles, and drag Li Chongshan here. Unlike Luoyang, we can't build fortifications on the Yellow River, and we can't threaten Li Chongshan, he can come and leave when he wants. ”
Lin Jianyue said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, according to what you say, it is better to let Li Chongshan come to Luoyang, as long as he goes to fight Pu Jinzhong, we will attack Kaifeng Mansion, the result is not the same?" ”
Your Highness, you still don't want to give up the idea of using yourself as bait!
Liu Bingyun shook his head and said: "Your Highness, attacking and defending are different, we are different from Li Chongshan, we are still mainly foot soldiers, once we go out to attack, who knows whether Li Chongshan, who retreated from Luoyang, will fight Pu Jinzhong, or fight the army that attacks one of our three roads?" The speed of the Menghu cavalry is so fast, the news is too late to be delivered, and the carrier pigeons are not safe, even if they are transmitted, they have no time to react, the variables are too great, and military affairs cannot rely on luck. ”
Lin Jianyue knew that what Liu Bingyun said was very correct, so he could only sigh and say: "If this is the case, then I will simply go to Yancheng to join the guards, and implement Mr. Liu's plan to the end." ”
The mother just doesn't want Lin Jianyue to take risks, and there are no underground tunnels in Yancheng to ensure Lin Jianyue's safety.
Before Liu Bingyun could speak, Tie Qinglin said: "It's so inappropriate, there are internal responses around Li Chongshan in the capital that can influence him and we don't know, even if Pu Jinzhong attacks in the east, maybe Li Chongshan doesn't like him at all, and only attaches importance to His Highness, the Luoyang strategy still has to be carried out according to the original plan, maybe the situation will be better, and the Chenzhou strategy is just a supplement to the changing situation." ”
Lin Jianyue thought about it and agreed, and asked to inform the generals of the major legions of the adjusted strategy as soon as possible.
Li Yang didn't dare to speak, and it was difficult to leave, so he could only hope that Sun Zhengyi would adapt to the situation.
What is the current situation in the Central Plains Li Chongshan also knows that now Hebei is constantly hoarding grain and grass from Kaifeng, and it is estimated that the news that he will go south to Kaifeng at the end of the year should not be hidden, so he immediately summoned Batusu, Qin Zhenghao and Zheren, the commander of the Eagle Hunting Guard, to discuss the specific strategy.
"I went south at the end of the year, and now it is estimated that the south side should have been predicted, what is Lin Jianyue's situation now?"
"Your Majesty, the Eagle Hunter Guard paid a lot of price before he basically heard the news, Lin Jianyue's three main army corps are all around Kaifeng Mansion, and Long Jie's army is about 100,000 people in Xuzhou in the west, and the leader is Tieqinglin, who originally guarded Luoyang, and countless troop fortresses have been built around Kaifeng Mansion, which is very difficult to attack; To the south is the new Wuwei Army, which was formed by the merger of the Xinyang Army of Caizhou and the Wuwei Army of Guo Youting of Huaixi, with more than 100,000 people, and the general of the unified army is Liu Jiahao of the former Shangzhou, who is now stationed in Caizhou; The newly formed Guards Army of more than 120,000 people, the most elite soldiers drawn from various armies, the commander of the army Hao Tianfeng, in the middle of the southwest of the Yancheng, Lin Jianyue now has nearly 100,000 cavalry, the commander of the army Li Fei, the location has not been finalized, our analysis should be mainly in the Yancheng, convenient to support in two directions. ”
"Where is Lin Jianyue? Weir City? ”
"In order to get accurate news of Lin Jianyue, the people on Jingxi Road were basically killed and injured, but fortunately, some time ago in Luoyang, there was a big incident in Luoyang where Lin Jian'an's Han Mansion assassinated Lin Jianyue, Lin Jianyue's Zhenfu Division carried out a big investigation, everyone was panicked, and finally bought a few defectors who had come from Hanfu before, they were the key targets, so they basically figured out the situation, except for going to Yancheng in the middle of the year to train the Guards for a period of time, Lin Jianyue has been in Luoyang now. Your Majesty, Luoyang has more than 40,000 defenders and more than 23,000 guards cavalry. ”
Li Chongshan nodded, and said to Qin and Ba: "Now there is a new situation, Hachi has news that Pu Jinzhong of Yangzhou, Huaidong, wants to take advantage of the battle between me and Lin Jianyue, and concentrate his forces to attack the Shandong Peninsula on Jingdong East Road, Hachi is ready to concentrate on Jingdong and Jingdong to encircle and annihilate Pu Jinzhong first, I agreed, but Lin Jianyue is very strong, and his arrangement is also defense-oriented, as long as he can't shrink back, the people I brought over and the people from Kaifeng Mansion may be difficult to defeat Lin Jianyue, I don't know what suggestions the two have?" ”
"There are only 100,000 foot soldiers in Kaifeng Mansion, and the people who have to stay in the city, our cavalry can't attack the city, right? Son Masayoshi is still very strong, and the number of people is more than 100,000, but I don't know if I can trust it. In recent years, there have been many rebellious Han troops. ”
Qin Zhenghao said first, although he had already known Lin Jianyue's plan to use himself as bait through Liu Jingye, but now that the army was still in Hebei, he definitely couldn't say the strategy of letting Li Chongshan prepare to attack Luoyang, it depended on the development of the situation step by step.
Li Chongshan didn't dare to say that he was sure, but only talked about the cooperation between Sun Zhengyi and Hachi, especially emphasizing that Hachi trusted Sun Zhengyi very much.
Batusu glanced at Qin Zhenghao a few times, and stopped talking, Li Chongshan said with a smile when he saw this: "Marshal Ba has something to say, don't you still believe Master Qin?" ”
Batusu was a little embarrassed: "It's not a question of trust or distrust. Okay, that's the case, Your Majesty, since the people of Jingdong Road have now gone to the Shandong Peninsula to fight Pu Jinzhong, and Jingdong West Road is empty, if Sun Zhengyi wants to rebel, now is the best time, and it is still possible to unite Lin Jianyue to defeat Hachi's troops left in Kaifeng Mansion, but everything is normal at present, and Sun Zhengyi should be credible. However, some time ago, Balsif's message to his ministers was that Hachi intended to leave the Central Plains and return to Hetao, and also wanted to take Sun Zhengyi away, and had found Balsif's help through others. Your Majesty, the Central Plains has been deteriorating in recent years, and it has a lot to do with Hachi's perfunctory work, and this time it is problematic for him to concentrate all the troops on Jingdong Road to fight Pu Jinzhong first, and he can't distinguish between priorities and priorities. The minister suggested that His Majesty should first send his ministers to Kaifeng Mansion to relieve Ha Chi of his military power, since he wanted to go, then let him go, the minister was confident that he would collect Hachi's subordinates and subdue Sun Zhengyi, and rearrange his troops, as long as His Majesty arrived in Kaifeng, he would be able to quickly defeat Lin Jianyue. ”
Batusu actually didn't want to talk about the high-level affairs of Menghu in front of Qin Zhenghao, a Han person, for fear of affecting the confidence of the surrendered Han people, especially high-ranking officials like Qin Zhenghao.
Li Chongshan smiled faintly and said: "Hachi is also a member of the Golden Family, and there are indeed many people with the same status as him who have established large and small khanates, and he can be said to have worked hard over the years, and it is normal for him to have ideas." The Hetao is a little unstable now, and it's okay for him to go back, but not now. Many of Kaifeng's main forces were brought by him from Hetao, and although Marshal Ba was very prestigious, he was better at leading. We rarely use intrigue and trickery, and we have always relied on strength to win, and this time is the same. Whether Son is credible or not, as long as I am gone, no matter who it is, it will be swept away. Marshal Ba, this time you and I will go with you in the Central Plains, and the affairs of the Central Plains will be handed over to you in the future. Master Qin dispatched at least 50,000 foot soldiers from Hebei and sent reliable generals to lead the army to set off first. ”
