Chapter 323: Take Liangzhou
Changyi, the seat of Yanzhou governance, is the old nest of Unomiya Teruje. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhuge Liang handed the text to Ugong Terulie through Unomiya **, which is now on Unomiya Terulie's desk. Ugong Zhaolie read this letter without saying a word, and suddenly laughed: "The people's hearts are not enough to swallow the elephant, after I won half of the three counties of Qingzhou and Jingzhou, I still wanted to get involved in Jizhou, but I only got a Wei county; ”
Guo Jia on the side chuckled: "Every county in Jizhou is very rich, and Wei County is no exception, of course Yuan Qi wants to take Wei County in his hands." Besides, Wei County is adjacent to Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and it is a bridgehead for the Central Plains, how could Yuan Qi not see this clearly?"
Xi Zhicai, who was standing opposite Guo Jia, sighed and said: "Yuan Qiqi is really a genius who has not been born in a hundred years, defeated Yuan Ding and conquered the city in just a few days, and even did not leave us time to react, so he occupied most of Jizhou, integrating wisdom, courage, courage and courage, and being a friend is a great blessing, if he is an enemy, it is really a headache." It's a pity that the lord is destined to be his opponent. ”
Unomiya Terulie said with a smile: "In life, if there is no strong opponent, wouldn't it be very boring? In the past, in Shouchun, I cooked wine with him and talked about the heroes of the world, and finally came to the conclusion that only the two of us can be called the heroes of the world, and from that time on, I knew that he would be my lifelong opponent, a respectable opponent." ”
After a pause, Ugong Terulie turned his head to look at Xun You and Cheng Yu on the other side, and asked, "You said that Yuan Qi is only in his early twenties, but he can achieve such a brilliant record, why did he come?"
Unomiya Terulie's words caused everyone to think deeply. Yes, when Yuan Qi joined the army, he started as an ordinary sergeant, and his father Yuan Ying was just a county guard at that time. It doesn't have much background, but Yuan Qi stubbornly opened up a road, from an ordinary sergeant all the way, and sat on the throne of King Yan in just over ten years, which has to be said to be a miracle.
After pondering for a long time, Xun You took the lead and said, "Shicai Zhicai has just said. Yuan Qi is a person, a combination of wisdom, courage, courage and courage, which is a necessary prerequisite for a successful person, but a certain believes that the most terrifying thing about Yuan Qi is his thinking. He was always able to do something unexpected and achieve good results, such as the red-coat ballista, which was so powerful and deterrent that I really don't know how he figured it out, but he seemed to have imagination and creativity beyond his time. This is unparalleled in the world. ”
"It's more than that. As soon as Xun Yu's words fell, Cheng Yu immediately added: "He seems to have the ability to be a prophet, I heard that Yuan Qi recently rewarded the ministers in Yanjing, and rewarded the eight all-rounders, the five tiger generals and the eight good generals, most of these people, before they joined Yuan Qi, had little reputation." However, under Yuan Qi's hands, he has been fully exerted and gradually grown into a pillar of the country, which shows that Yuan Qi's wisdom is respectable, fearful, and terrifying. ”
Xi Zhicai said: "Since ancient times, a monarch who has made a difference must be a monarch who is good at civil and martial arts, both domestic and foreign affairs, and the lord belongs to this category of monarchs. But what Yuan Qi did was not inferior to the lord, he had reformed internal affairs several times, eliminated the shortcomings of the law, and issued an order to gather talents. Externally, he curried against Dong Meng, destroyed Zhang Ju, defeated Yuan Bai, killed Li Dao, beheaded Guo Yan, broke Yuan Ding, swept through the northern frontier, and shocked China; in terms of diplomacy, he could temporarily form an alliance with the lord, and he could also vigorously support Sun Ce to lead Jiangdong, but the feelings he invested in it were very clear, and it was an expedient measure for the lord, but for Sun Ce, it was a long-term plan. If such a person can't succeed, that's really weird. ”
Listening to everyone's discussions, Guo Jia opened his mouth and said: "Actually, there is always a little doubt in Jia's heart, is Yuan Qi really so loyal to the Son of Heaven? On the surface, if it were not for Yuan Qi's repeated help, the Son of Heaven would have been reduced to a puppet, and there would never be such a prestige as today, and Yuan Qi would pay a large amount of annual tribute to the imperial court every year. However, if Yuan Qi was sincere to the Son of Heaven, why did he put the several large states that he had defeated under his own rule instead of handing them over to the Son of Heaven to manage? Don't say that the edict issued by the Son of Heaven was forced into him, that is not in line with common sense. Yuan Qi himself must also have the will to take charge of these big states, and the Son of Heaven, who is extremely dependent on Yuan Qi, must understand Yuan Qi's intentions, so he ordered to hand over several large states in the north to Yuan Qi to govern, to put it disrespectfully, Yuan Qi is the real helmsman of the current empire, and the Son of Heaven only retains his nominal prestige and dignity. However, another method of Yuan Qi is puzzling: If Yuan Qi wanted to stand on his own, then why did he save the Son of Heaven from fire and water again and again, and personally helped the Son of Heaven to form an army of tens of thousands of people? Is Yuan Qi a hero or a hero? It is really puzzling. ”
This discussion, driven by everyone, has deviated from the original path, but Ugong Terulie listened with great interest, and said with a smile: "Actually, whether Yuan Qi is loyal or traitorous, whether he is a hero or a hero, you don't have to care. In my opinion, he is a combination of both. It's just that his loyalty is not loyal to the Son of Heaven, but to the tens of millions of people in the world. Perhaps it is precisely because he always cares about the safety of the people that the people of the six northern states flock to him. This is a belief deliberately cultivated by Yuan Qi, and with this kind of belief, the Yan army will be invincible, in Yuan Qi's own words, this belief is called ...... Well, by the way, it's called the military spirit. ”
Guo Jia and the others glanced at each other, but they didn't expect Ugong Terumi to study Yuan Qi so thoroughly, which can be described as a sentence. It seems that Ugong Terulie really regards Yuan Qi as the first opponent in his life. Although under Unomiya Terulie's explanation, Guo Jia and the others understood that the military soul was the driving force behind the Yan army's battle, but they couldn't think of a way to follow suit, because in this world, except for Yuan Qi, no one else knew how the military soul was cultivated.
Reaching out and pressing it on the table, Yugong Zhaolie slowly crumpled Zhuge Liang's inscription, and then said slowly: "Inform Yugong Hong and let him tell Zhuge Liang that after I returned from Wei County, I have been unwell and unable to govern due to unaccustomed water and soil." Wei Jun's matter, let Yugong Hong delay as much as possible. The longer you drag it on, the better. Zhuge Liang was sure that I didn't want to start a war with Yuan Qi, but I didn't know that I also expected that Yuan Qi didn't want to tear his face with me either. Let's drag it first. ”
North, Yanjing. Inside the Yanwang Mansion. Li Ru stood opposite Yuan Qi with a dark face, stretched out his hand and handed him a note, and said at the same time: "The brother below just sent the wire report, Yizhou Yuanzhang invited Taishan of Southern Jingzhou to enter Xichuan in order to resist Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and Taishan has already reorganized the soldiers and horses. At this moment, it is already on the way to Xichuan. ”
The news sent by Li Ru really surprised Yuan Qi.
After receiving this news, Yuan Qi couldn't sit still, and immediately jumped out of the gentle township intertwined by the three wives. Let Li Ru summon all the important ministers to come to the meeting.
After everyone arrived, Yuan Qi told everyone about the situation of Mount Tai, and then let everyone express their opinions freely. Taishan this person, no one under Yuan Qi's command has a good impression of him, when Taishan was displaced in the past, Yuan Qi had helped Taishan several times, but after Taishan gained power, he never mentioned the past. In the eyes of the Yan Guozhong ministers, Mount Tai is a typical revenge. Besides, Taishan's hypocritical hypocrisy is really disgusting, and it is just a matter of deceiving the ignorant, but it cannot escape their eyes. Compared with Yuan Qi, Taishan is a clown who jumps off the beam in their eyes.
Therefore, regarding Taishan's march into Yizhou, everyone quickly unified their minds and must prevent Taishan from occupying Yizhou. However, Yizhou is in the southwest border, and Yan is in the north, there are tens of thousands of miles between the two places, and there is a Ugong Zhaolie in the middle.
In the face of this problem, the old and spicy Jia Yuan put forward an opinion, he suggested that from Tongzhou, Bingzhou to draw troops and horses, and then all the way to the west to Liangzhou, taking advantage of Li Dao, Guo Yan, Han Sui and others were killed, Liangzhou dragons were leaderless, when the Qiang people were cold, quickly take Liangzhou, and then from Liangzhou to the sharp down, the troops and Yizhou border Wudu County, then or use mild means, force Taishan to retreat, or use tough means, first level Hanzhong Zhang Lu, so that Taishan lost the excuse to stay in Yizhou.
Jia Yuan's plan has been unanimously approved by everyone, and the transfer of people from Tongzhou and Bingzhou can save a lot of time, which is undoubtedly much faster than sending troops from Youzhou, and can also save some grain and grass consumed on the road, but this plan also has certain limitations. First of all, after the Jizhou War, recruits from all over the country are recruiting, and they have not yet started training, and the transfer of people from Tongzhou and Bingzhou will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the troops in these two states, although there is Jizhou presided over by Zhuge Liang as a barrier, but it is not a foolproof strategy, you must know that the south of the state is the territory of Ugong Zhaolie, and Ugong Zhaolie may launch a surprise attack on the state at any time. As a result, Yuan Qi could not draw large-scale troops in these two states, especially in the merged states.
In the end, Yuan Qi decided to adopt Jia Yuan's opinion, and transferred 20,000 soldiers from Tongzhou, 10,000 soldiers from Bingzhou, plus 20,000 Tianhui troops and 20,000 land Gui troops, to form a 70,000 army to go out together. 70,000 people say that it is not much, but it is not a lot to say less, it is definitely not possible to conquer Yizhou, but while the Liangzhou group of dragons has no leader, it is not difficult to take Liangzhou, and after taking Liangzhou, the army will gather in Wudu, for Yuanzhang, Taishan and Zhang Lu, it is a huge threat, and the follow-up combat strategy will be arranged according to the specific situation.
This expedition to Liangzhou, the starting point of the Yuan will be dominated by Liangzhou people, under the command of Yuan Qi, there are several people in Liangzhou, the poison Jia Yuan, the commander of the Qianlong Li Ru, the Xiliang Jin Ma Yue, the small gun king Zhang Long, as well as Pang De and Ma Dai, are all Liangzhou people, with these locals who are very familiar with Liangzhou, can make the war in Liangzhou smoother, and win more time to prevent Mount Tai from occupying Yizhou. In addition to these people, Yuan Qi also brought Zhang Chong, Wei Yan and Chen Gong with him on this expedition, of course, Xu Chu and Dian Wei, the two gold medal fighters and personal bodyguards, are indispensable.
