Chapter 200 Three-step strategy
In the Tianxin Pavilion, there were Zhang Chengye, Li Juchuan, Zhao Chongning, Cui Yuanzhao, Liu Quanli, and Li Yun, Feng Xingxi, Gao Xingzhou, Yang Shihou, Tuoba Yungui, Xue Guangheng and others.
Han Wei was still on his way to the Huainan Hepinglu, and he would not be able to come back for a while.
Zhang Jun, the Jingyuan Army, did not come after being seriously ill, and sent his nephew Zhang Lian to lead 10,000 infantry and cavalry to come.
Li Ye frowned, "What's going on with Yang Chongben and Han Zun?"
Cui Yuanzhao said: "Yang Chongben reported to Dulun Siga, the leader of the late clan of Longxi, to have abnormal movements. He was afraid that he would invade inside and dare not obey the imperial edict and beg to stay in Qinzhou. Han Zun claimed to be seriously ill and asked His Majesty to send him back to Han Xun."
Li Ye sneered in his heart, this is shameless.
When we summon them to Chang'an, we treat them as our own people. If there are any conflicts or conflicts of interest, we will resolve them internally.
Since you don’t want to be your own person, don’t blame yourself for following outsiders’ standards in the future.
Now Li Ye holds two major geopolitical sectors, Fengxiang and Chang'an, and is not afraid that they will grow wings and fly.
Since they are all their own people, Li Ye has made a big spell.
When everyone heard that there might be a severe drought in Guanzhong and lack of food harvest, they frowned.
This kind of thing can't be concealed, and the people have already panic, and they rely on the Imperial City Department to secretly suppress and promote Zhongyitang to barely calm the emotions of the people of Chang'an.
Of course, Li Ye just briefly said that he did not disclose how bad it was.
The generals looked indifferent. As long as there is a war, they still care about whether there is a drought or not.
Half a year has passed since the Battle of Puyang, and there have been low-intensity battles.
Therefore, the morale in the army is very high, coupled with clear rewards and punishments, and the Zhongyi Hall inspires morale, which makes everyone in the Tang army have the ambition to make achievements.
Zhang Chengye, Li Juchuan and other civil officials, Li Ye had already said hello, and they understood the predicament of Tang's at this time, so no one stopped him.
Only when family harmony can everything be prosperous. Only when internal agreement can we reach an agreement externally.
"Shu has always been abundant. It is the grain silo in Guanzhong. Wang Jian and Gu Yanhui have fought one after another. Our army happened to be surprised and swept across Shu and recreated the momentum of the Great Qin Dynasty!" Gao Xingzhou said excitedly.
Li Yun, Feng Xingxi, and Tuoba Yunguijun nodded and said yes.
"The last general has trained eight hundred Modao soldiers. This time, the last general should be the pioneer in attacking Shuzhong." Li Yun directly began to seize the merits.
Gao Xingzhou was unhappy, "General Li's pillar of the country, why should the general take action? The last general's 1,000 iron-armored cavalry are now quite good, just for the Shu people to test their swords!"
Before, Gao Xingzhou threw his three thousand treasures in Yangzhou because there was an iron ore in the southwest of Yangzhou. It was almost a year since he built the horse armor of heavy cavalry, and only one thousand heavy cavalry had been created.
Li Ye coughed and glanced at the generals, "Why do you want to attack Wang Jian instead of Zhu Wen?"
When this question asked, all the generals had a look of surprise on their faces.
Li Ye also wanted to fight Shuzhong, but after careful consideration, he found that he was seeking death.
The combat power of the Shu army may not be as strong as the Liang army, but don’t forget that as long as Wang Jian defends Jianmen Pass, the geographical advantage of Shu is in his hands.
Even if the Tang army broke through Jianmen Pass, the difficulty of Shu Road was as difficult as going up to the sky, and the cavalry and baggage were not considered at all.
Moreover, Wang Jian was not Liu Zhang or Liu Chan, a Tang army who could starve to death if they entered the country by a strong wall and clearing the country.
The risk is too great, and there is a possibility that the entire army will be wiped out at any time.
"Beat Zhu Wen!" Li Yun's eyes rose.
Feng Xingxi looked shocked.
It was not that the generals were afraid of the Liang army, but that the gap in strength between the two sides was there.
During the Qingkou Battle, Zhu Wen lost 60,000 to 70,000 troops, but he was still fine.
The war potential in the Central Plains was too great. When Qin Zongquan occupied the traditional Huaixi Town, he could create an army of more than 100,000.
Now Zhu Wen occupied Shaanxi Guo, Hezhong, Luoyang, Zhongwu, Xuanwu, Heyang, Yicheng, Tianping, Taining, and the ten towns were all places where the money and grain were abundant, and it was not surprising that he had created an army of 200,000 to 300,000 troops.
On the other hand, Li Ye has merged with Xiasui, Fufang, Fengxiang, and Shannan West Road, but many places have been destroyed, and an expected drought has left Li Ye in a panic.
But even so, Li Ye still has to fight!
"The main force of the Liang army is in Shandong, so we definitely wouldn't have thought that our army would dare to take a gamble at this time! Moreover, Li Keyong not only agreed to restrain Ding Hui, but also sent troops to compete for Jin, Jiang, Xi, Qin and other prefectures along the Fen River!" Li Juchuan said in a deep voice.
If these four states are in the hands of Zhu Wen, Hedong will never be peaceful.
Especially Qinzhou, which is stuck between Taiyuan and Luzhou. Once Zhu Wen has been allowed to operate for two or three years, and Liang Jun frees up his hands from Shandong, Li Keyong can return to his hometown in the grassland in advance to live with his Turkic fellow villager.
For Li Ye and Li Keyong, this battle is imperative!
The battle inspires the hearts of the world, attacks Zhu Wen's arrogance, and supports Yang Xingmi and Wang Shifan!
Only by fighting can one win a glimmer of hope under the critical strike of God!
"There is another point. Guanzhong is currently suffering from severe drought, the Yellow River is shallow, and the upstream and downstream of Pujin can cross the river. How can the Liang army defend everywhere?" Li Ye added.
Send troops in the river, grab money, grab people, grab food, and grab the way to survive!
Li Ye never expected that as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he would become the leader of a bandit.
"What else do you have to say?" Li Ye's eyes swept across everyone one by one.
"The last general will obey the order!" The generals half knelt on the ground.
"Okay, the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty is here. Our army's strategy is divided into three steps. The first step is to break through Pucheng Xu Huaiyu and Hezhong Prefecture Zhu Youning. At the same time, General Li Yun's army went out of Guozhou to restrain Wang Chong's army, Liu Zhijun, and Feng Jiedu led the Jin Shang army to take Jingxiang and go out to Dengzhou to attack Shaanxi and Guo's back." Li Ye looked at Li Yun and Feng Xing's attack.
The most difficult task falls on Li Yun.
If Feng Xingshi was not strong enough, Li Yun might sacrifice his life for the country.
In the Liang Army of Kwantung, Li Ye was most afraid of Wang Chongshi and Liu Zhijun. There was no way, Liu Zhijun's achievements were well-known in history books.
"No!" Li Yun and Feng Xingxi clasped their fists at the same time.
"The second step is to use surprise troops to raid Xizhou and cut off Ding Hui's retreat!" Ding Hui and Zhang Cunjing's troops stationed at Yindi Pass. You don't have to think about it and the army's food, grass and supplies are all in Xizhou.
"The third step is to join Li Keyong and overcome the Eastern Capital!" Li Ye cut off the railway.
Luoyang, the eastern capital, had long become a major grain tax place under the management of Zhang Quanyi. Previously, Zhu Wen attacked Hezhong, Luoyang became a rear base, and supplies from the Central Plains were continuously sent into it.
Only by capturing Luoyang can Guanzhong have enough food to hold on!
The steps are a bit big, but you might get the balls.
If you really fight, the situation on the battlefield will change continuously, and no one can tell how much it can be accomplished.
But the goal must be set.
Li Ye and Tang Ting are now making progress but not retreating, and they are taking every bet.
Guanzhong is even more difficult than he expected. If he is in Guanzhong, there will be natural disasters and man-made disasters, let alone revitalizing the Tang Dynasty, maybe even Wang Jian will not be able to do it by then.
Besides, I will not agree with the temperament of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Ignoring everyone's shocked eyes, Li Ye bowed to Zhang Chengye, "I'll leave Chang'an to Jiyuan!"
Zhang Chengye was so excited that he knelt in front of Li Ye on both knees, "Even if I am broken into pieces, I will not let any mistakes be made in the back!"
Chapter completed!
