Don't do anything stupid!

I'm afraid that Su Muxin's kindness, they are going to live up to it.

Three days later, a personal soldier who "escorted" Su Mu Honghuan took on a heavy duty and brought back a news that shocked the palace.

"King Shenliu led people to rob and kill us, and then fled with King Wenlu, and I was the only one who escaped, and they rebelled!"

After saying this, this pro-soldier did not survive and died of serious injuries.

Although Su Muxin was mentally prepared, he was still a little uncomfortable.

Under the persuasion of Shen Shifang and others, Su Muxin ruthlessly ordered that Lizhou City be under martial law, and the two battalions of the rear army returned to Lizhou City to garrison.

The place where the incident occurred is located in Xucheng, which is between Lizhou City and Xique City, which is a small city, but there are also 10,000 garrisons.

And the 10,000 garrisons, justifiably became the capital of Su Mu Gaozhuo to fight for power.

Not only that, in just a few days, military incidents were caused in various parts of Xiyun Kingdom, especially Shenliucheng, including the frontier army against Nanliu Kingdom, with a total of 50,000 troops, pressing closely towards Lizhou.

It seems that the generals recruited by Su Mu Gaozhuo are by no means superficial, and those who stay in the city are his hole cards.

In the face of the oncoming rebels, Su Muxin did not panic, everything was under his control.

Today, he specially summoned the ministers and began to personally select generals and send troops.

Of course, Shen Shifang and seven people were also around him.

"Marshal Huo, you lead the rear army of 50,000 and guard Lizhou City. Su Muxin commanded.

"Obey. ”

Lizhou City is the lifeblood of Xiyun Kingdom, and Huo Dingchuan, a powerful man in the world who has experienced a hundred battles, is naturally the most suitable candidate.

Su Muxin looked around and said, "Now Su Mu Gaozhuo and Su Mu Honghuan have a total of 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they have quickly captured the seven surrounding cities such as Xique City. Now they have more than 50,000 soldiers and horses.

And Shenliucheng also has 50,000 soldiers and horses, which are gradually pressing Lizhou. At present, there are only 100,000 soldiers and horses in Lizhou, 30,000 city defense troops of the Middle Route Army, and 5,000 soldiers and horses of the Praetorian Guard.

The equality of the forces of the enemy and the enemy is not a vicious battle. However, in order to eliminate the hidden dangers of the various ministries, the generals must be aware of everything and put the people recruited by the two imperial brothers into prison.

Of course, if you are willing to abandon evil and follow good, I am not a ruthless person, let him go to the front line and eliminate the rebels for the country. ”

Huo Dingchuan saluted and said, "Remember." ”

Su Muxin continued: "The commander of the rear army, Fu Xuan. ”

Fu instantly replied: "The minister is here." ”

Su Muxin said: "I order you to take 50,000 troops to fight against Bao Hongyou." ”

"Obey. ”

This Bao Hongyou is a former army commander. On the day Su Mu Gaozhuo left, he asked people to expedite 800 li and asked Bao Hongyou, who was in Shenliu City, to send troops to Lizhou.

As for the rest of the front army, he Sumu Gaozhuo did not dare to move, and still stayed in Shenliu City to defend the Nanliu Kingdom, so as not to be taken advantage of.

The other border guards have their own duties, and they are not Su Mu Gaozhuo's people.

Therefore, Su Mu Gaozhuo had no choice but to make a lone bet to capture Lizhou City and force Su Mu Yashan to give way, and the soldiers and horses of the whole country would be controlled.

Otherwise, I am afraid that when the border guards are king, Su Mu Gaozhuo will face a dilemma.

Su Muxin said again: "You remember, as long as the main generals of the rebel army are eliminated, and those soldiers are moved to understand and reason, they will definitely not be willing to bear the infamy and leave a stench for ten thousand years." If they are willing to lay down their arms and return to the imperial court, they will reduce their taxes for three years per person per household. ”

Of course, although Xiyun Kingdom is not rich, it can also be fed and clothed. Mount Sumuya reigned

For four years, he was diligent and diligent, loved the people like a son, and implemented a benevolent government that also made the people talk about it.

If such a country lord goes against it, it is not justifiable, and the so-called teacher is nameless.

It will definitely stink for 10,000 years.

"The minister commanded. Huo Dingchuan and Fu instantly responded in unison.

Su Muxin's eyes were cold at this time, and he said, "As for my two imperial brothers, I will personally fight against them. ”

Prime Minister Wang Helian said: "Think twice, don't! How can you go to the front line with your golden body?"

Other ministers also seconded.

"Yes! ”

"Just go by Weichen, and the thief will be arrested. ”

Su Muxin waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, I have made up my mind, and now I will obey the order." ”

The officials stopped talking and waited for the lord to issue his will.

Su Muxin said: "There are 30,000 troops in the middle of the army, and we will set off early tomorrow morning when the rooster crows." ”

After that, he said, "Shifang, are you willing to put on armor for me?"

Shen Shifang saluted and said: "Back to the lord of Xiyun Country, the grass people and a few people are all from Nanliu Kingdom, and it is not suitable to be an official. If it is useful, I will naturally give my life to help. ”

Su Muxin's eyes dimmed, knowing that Shen Shifang was telling the truth. Nanliu has already named Shen Shifang as the king of Xiaoyao, and then he has an official position here, which is unreasonable.

He said: "Okay then! The Zhongqing family listened to the order, Shen Shifang, Situ Jie, Lian Kongling, Hua Qingyu, Yang Yan, Song Wenruo, Zhang Bei and other eight people are my close friends, and they are guests of Xiyun Country. ”

"Remember. ”

Su Muxin said again: "Everyone go back and prepare, the grain and grass battalion of the middle route army will set off first, and early tomorrow morning, the pioneer battalion will open the road to meet the rebels." ”

After retreating from the dynasty, Su Muxin and Shen Shifang were in the imperial study, discussing the current situation.

"Now, they want to attack Lizhou City together, as long as Lizhou City is broken, the entire Xiyun Kingdom will surrender to Sumu Gaozhuo.

Therefore, holding on is not the way out, we must take the initiative to attack, hold the initiative in our hands, and deal with uncertain changes on the battlefield. Shen Shifang nodded at the current location of the two rebels.

Su Muxin said: "I know that you understand the art of war, this time you are in charge, and I will give the order." ”

He was afraid that Shen Shifang would give an order, and the 30,000 people of the Middle Route Army would not listen, and it would be a mortal danger at that time.

Shen Shifang smiled: "Okay then! ”

Lian Kongling said at this time: "By the way, what about another prince? Why didn't he move?"

Su Muxin said, "You mean the Third Emperor Brother, right?"

Isn't it Sumuchiang!

Lian Kongling nodded and said, "Exactly, how do I think the three of them are complicit?"

Shen Shifang said, "Where is he now?"

Su Muxin pointed on the map and said, "This, Suicheng is his fiefdom." ”

Shen Shifang saw that this city was close to the Beiling Kingdom, and the south was from the old site of the Huoling Tomb, and then it was possible to reach the Xiaoqi Mountain and enter the Nanliu Kingdom.

"Is there any movement on him now?" Shen Shifang always felt that this Su Muqiang was not a good person, "But there are people who are monitoring him?"

Su Muxin shook his head and said, "After he returned to Fengyi, he was only at home, not out of the house. ”

When Shen Shifang heard this, he thought that something was wrong, the movement outside was so big, and the entire Xiyun Kingdom was in chaos. Although he was relieved of power, he is also from the same father, a member of the royal family, no matter which side he stands, he should wave the flag and shout.

If it is a branch

Holding Su Mu Gaozhuo, he should cooperate, and raise troops from Suicheng, then Lizhou City will be in danger.

However, this is really Shen Shifang thinking too much.

Su Muqiang has no support, does not ask about the world, and accompanies his children, wives and concubines at home every day, leisurely.

Situ Jie said, "Do you think there is something wrong with him?"

Shen Shifang sighed and said, "Not necessarily, maybe I'm thinking too much." ”

Zhang apologized and said: "Landlord, they have 50,000 people, and we only have 30,000, how should we fight?"

Shen Shifang said: "Sometimes, winning a war, although it has something to do with the number of soldiers and horses, is not necessarily the case.

A war, combining time, place, and people. The so-called time of the day, if it can be used well, can play a vital role, and can even directly affect a war.

Geographical advantages, according to local conditions, to develop offensive or defensive strategies. For example, how to use troops in the condescending terrain, and how to use the terrain to achieve the best results? These are also very important.

As for people, it's like the current situation. A rebel is a rebel army after all, and he is nameless, like a traitor. But whoever is sensible, they will understand that this war is wrong.

As a result, under the influence of people's conscience, their morale will be low, there will be no good tacit understanding between each other, and they will have distrust of Su Mu Gaozhuo and others.

Therefore, their combat effectiveness is often greatly weakened, and compared with before, it is greatly reduced.

However, the time, the place, and the people are all inseparable from the same, that is, for the general.

The so-called general is the commander of the army, and it is also the place where the soul is. ”

Shen Shifang's words convinced everyone.

This made Su Muxin even more relieved that Shen Shifang would command and pacify these rebels.

Shen Shifang said again: "Among the many armies in the Xiyun Kingdom, the Praetorian Guards are the elite, and the border guards, the front army, the middle route army and the rear army are almost the same.

Therefore, we 30,000 against 50,000 must not force ourselves. Our only advantage is that we are famous, belong to the righteous army, have extremely high morale, and are absolutely reliable in combat power.

Then, we have to think about it, with a difference of 20,000 soldiers and horses, how should this war be fought?"

Su Muxin said: "Outnumbered, you should outwit!"

Shen Shifang smiled and said, "That's right, let's compete with them." I propose to use 3,000 cavalry to attack the vicinity of Xique City, which can be used as a surprise army.

In addition, with 10,000 soldiers and horses, he set out first to recover the six small cities. None of these six small cities had much strategic significance, just so that there were no accidents on their way from Xique City.

Therefore, their defenders must not be many, not more than a thousand per city. Moreover, in the midst of the haste to raise troops, grain and grass were their fatal wounds.

Until we regain the six cities, we will certainly not have enough food and grass to gather. Therefore, we must take six cities in five days. ”

Su Muxin said: "The fortifications of these six small cities are not very strong, and it should be no problem in five days." ”

Lian Kongling said with some concern: "I'm afraid that if they send troops to support, then these 10,000 horses will be in danger." ”

Shen Shifang shook his head and said, "Therefore, it is necessary to divide the troops to capture the cities as early as five days, which ...... It depends on the ability of the pioneer battalion. ”

After that, Shen Shifang asked again: "By the way, who is in command of the pioneer battalion?"

Su Muxin clapped his hands and said, "Come in!"

Then, the door to the imperial study opened, and a person who was not familiar but not stranger walked in......
