Chapter 19: One Fish and Two Eats (for the Alliance's leader, Dr. Pavlov)
Kisang, who has retreated from Dongwu Yang to Yangping.
Dongwuyang was occupied by Gou Xi, and the "righteous army" lost more than 5,000 people.
However, Ji Sang was not distressed, the old troops who could fight ran fast, and most of them withdrew, and most of the dead were strong men pulled by Dunqiu and Yangping.
These Tian Shefu, as many as they want, will die.
After Gou Xi entered and occupied Dongwuyang, he did not immediately pursue it, but collected ships and crossed the troops, baggage, grain and grass that were still on the south bank of the river in batches.
Ji Sang took the opportunity to repair the city, dig deep trenches, and build fortifications, intending to hold on to Gou Xi for a long time.
But there is another worrying thing, that is, the west came to report that Liu Yu, the left chief of the Taifu shogunate, led an army of 80,000 troops, went north from Ji County, and had recovered Yecheng and was going to Yangping to kill.
Eighty thousand troops? Kisan just smiled.
The real strength of his subordinates is only more than 50,000, and he was once claimed to be 200,000, who wouldn't brag? It would be good for Liu Yu to have 30,000 soldiers.
But Liu Yu's journey is also a real threat and must be taken seriously.
Ji Sang summoned the scouts, and after carefully inquiring about the movements of Liu Yu's army, he sneered in his heart.
He has been traveling south and north for many years, attached to the red dragon, Ji and other pastures opened by the imperial court in Chiping, and has done a horse selling business, so he is well-informed, how can he not see the mystery?
Shao Xun, who is named Vanguard, is a poor worm to put it bluntly, and he is pushed in front by everyone. Liu Yu didn't care about his life and death at all, and at the same time, he was as timid as a mouse, cowering, and had already distanced himself from Shao Xunbu.
Since you're giving a big gift, don't blame me for being unkind.
Ji Sang was hot, shook the fox fur, snatched a pu fan, and after fanning himself, he laughed twice and said: "This will eat Shao Xun and frustrate Liu Yu's sharpness." He was so cowardly, when he heard that the vanguard army was defeated, he must not dare to come. â
The generals sat in the tent and looked at Ji Sang with bated breath.
Once the general throws away the fox fur, it means that he has to make a big decision.
It is indeed very uncomfortable to be attacked by the officers and soldiers on two sides, and if you can force back the road with fewer troops, you can greatly improve the current situation, and maybe you will be able to hold Gou Xi for a long time.
"Lu Ping!" Kissang shouted.
"General, the last general is here." Lu Ping Huo Ran got up and answered.
"You take three thousand old brothers, I will give you another ten thousand people, find a good place, and kill Shao Xun, do you dare?" Kisan asked.
"Why don't you dare?" Lu Ping laughed: "The general can wait for good news." â
Ji Sang smiled, but he was still not at ease, so he ordered another person: "Li Le, you lead the headquarters of thousands of horsemen, and listen to Lu Ping's dispatch." â
"No." Li Le didn't talk nonsense, and responded immediately.
The war has entered a critical moment, and there is no room for error.
The general sat on the two major pastures of Chiping, and only got thousands of horses, and the cavalry army formed was no more than 3,000, most of which were pasture herdsmen, military pawns, and part-time horse bandits, the old brothers who sold horses back then.
He took away a thousand horsemen, which was already a third of the old base, and the general really made up his mind.
"If you get it, go ahead." Ji Sang was very simple and said, "I got the equipment and grain and left." Remember, you have to use your brain to fight. Last year, Shi Le's defeat of Ding Shao was skillful, you wait to learn something. â
"No." Lu Ping and Li Le responded in unison.
Jisang waved his hand and told him to go away.
That's basically all the mobile troops that can be deployed, and the rest have to be divided into troops to guard everywhere to guard against Gou Xi.
It is precisely because of this reason that he let Lu Ping and Li Le use their brains, don't defeat Shao Xun, and he will also suffer heavy losses, so that the battle behind him will not be easy to fight.
This time, the dog court really made up its mind, and there were too many soldiers rushing over.
He had to think carefully about what the back line would be if he couldn't win......
******
In the Guandu camp, the staff went in and out, constantly summarizing the latest situation and reporting it to Sima Yue's desk.
Sima Yue looked at the map, very irritable.
"Qingsun (Liu Yu) is not here, and there is no one to use?" Sima Yue poked his finger on the map and said unhappily.
Yu Yu, Guo Xiang and others looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
These two people are very troubled by ordinary affairs on weekdays, especially the former, who "indulges in things", "does nothing", and basically doesn't care about things.
From their standpoint, we celebrities are here to support you and make a name for yourself, so you really let me give advice?
With that kind of time, why don't we sit down and talk about metaphysics, isn't it better than racking our brains to deal with "mundane affairs"?
Yu Yu glanced at it and found that Sima Yue's finger fell on the word "Fat Township".
Is there anything out of the ordinary about this place? Yu Yu didn't know very well, probably Fu Sheng didn't care about it when he was angry, just a little bit of it.
"Taifu, the armies of the east and west are encircling Jisang, why worry?" Ruan Zhan, who had just entered the palace's office, stepped forward and asked softly.
Sima Yue didn't know how to answer him for a while.
Ruan Zhan looked at the map, and compared the movements of the various departments that he had heard before, his face was a little uneasy, and he reminded: "Taifu, the general Shao Xun is rash against the enemy, is it a reminder?" â
Yu Yi and Guo Xiang looked at Ruan Zhan at the same time, like fools.
Ruan Zhan didn't care, and continued to say slowly: "Shao Caiguan is a well-known brave general in the army, if he is damaged by a light enemy, he is afraid of losing morale, Taifu should quickly send an envoy to admonish him, so don't be greedy for merit." â
Losing a brave general is indeed very demoralizing, and even leads to a big defeat, which is not uncommon in history.
Ruan Zhan reminded Sima Yue to pay attention to this point, don't compromise the "love general", this is out of duty and selfless.
In fact, he didn't have any ill feelings towards Shao Xun.
He didn't have much of a family opinion, and in his early years, he even played the piano for people from lowly backgrounds to delight everyone.
Taifu Zhengbi, he didn't want to come.
He knew that he was not this material, and he was not too interested in fame and fortune. Taifu recruited subordinates, and he first valued fame and second talent, he felt that this was not good, and he didn't want to cause chaos to the shogunate.
Helplessly, Taifu repeatedly conquered, so he received a job as a clerk to join the army, doing clerical work and other general affairs.
This will actually be the first time he has made a military suggestion, and I don't know if it's right or not, anyway, just do your duty, and it's too much to listen to it.
Of course Taifu didn't listen.
"Qianli (Ruan Zhan), you don't understand the military war." Sima Yue said lightly: "Sometimes, you need to be old and take care of yourself and march slowly. Sometimes, it is necessary to be brave and diligent, so as not to give the enemy a chance to breathe. Now it is the latter, Shao Xun bravely crowns the three armies, and the Yamen army under his command is the forbidden army. Jisang thief also, it is not difficult to break it. Once Shao Xun is outflanked in place, Gou Dao will march head-on again, and the thieves will be defeated. â
"It's too clear, it's ridiculous, and it's ridiculous." Ruan Zhan said embarrassedly.
Yu Yu and Guo Xiang turned their heads, not wanting to look at this honest fool anymore.
Sima Yue looked at the map, his mind was a little trance-like.
A while ago, he accidentally learned from the servants in the palace that Shao Xun had even given a fur fur to Princess Pei.
Every winter, Pei wears it on his body, and Sima Yue has seen it several times.
It's not really a big deal.
It is not uncommon for staff and retainers to give gifts to the mistress in order to be motivated, and it is normal to say it.
But Sima Yue was very unhappy.
Thinking of before leaving the town, Pei's bathed out, Sima Yue found his wife so beautiful for the first time in several years, and wanted to ask for Huan, but he didn't expect to be directly thrown away by Pei's hand.
The Pei family is not small, and Sima Yue is not easy to come hard, so he can only go to the concubine to vent, but in the end he failed to succeed.
This made him even more angry, and even wondered if there was something between Shao Xun and Pei.
Of course, he knew that this was impossible, it was purely chasing after the wind and shadows, and mediocrity disturbed himself, but he just couldn't help but think about it.
Shao Xun, does he have any special preference for noble women like princesses?
Fortunately, he still had his senses, and quickly eliminated these boring distractions.
But Shao Xun did annoy him a lot.
Such a brave general, and a native of the East China Sea, should be tried to win over and entrust him with a heavy responsibility.
He did the same at first, but after the Xuchang arsenal case, Shao Xun's ambitions were exposed, so he had to face it.
After Chang'an slaughtered Xianbei, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that something was wrong.
This person has no loyalty at all, is full of backbones, and has no value for wooing.
Then, something has to be done.
Taking Shao Xun as the vanguard to attack Jisang is part of the overall situation.
The strategy that Liu Qingsun planned for him, fundamentally speaking, was still to exterminate Jisang as the primary task.
Let Shao Xun and Ji Sang consume each other, this is an upright temple strategy, if he dares to disobey the order, no one will support him, just can justifiably mobilize Gou Xi, Wang Zhen (same as "like", zĂ n), Liu Yu, Hebei county soldiers and even the beggar army and other departments, besiege and kill.
Thinking of this, Sima Yue was finally happy.
If Shao Xun is not restricted, I am afraid that it will become more and more difficult to control in the future.
I have my own body, how many years can I live? If he dies and Shao Xun is still there, can He Lun and Wang Bing's generation control him? Will the prince be able to control him?
At this time, he understood Sima Hao more and more.
This person actually wanted to kill Zhang Fang for a long time, but he was helpless and useful, so he was reluctant, and he couldn't get rid of it when he dragged it on, and finally had to take a risk, and unexpectedly let Zhi Fu take a shot, so that Fang could get rid of it.
Pacify Hebei, weaken Shao Xun's strength, kill two birds with one stone, eat two fish, wonderful.
Sima Yue's gaze fell back to the map, as if he had seen the tragic situation of thousands of troops fighting repeatedly and corpses all over the field.
