Chapter 151: Soldiers are a major event for the country, father and son go into battle(1/2)

When Tong Guan, Liu Yanqing, and Yang Weizhong heard that Zhao Guanjia was going to talk about strategies to defeat the enemy, all three of them acted seriously and listened attentively.

Zhao Jidao: "In the city of Hangzhou, Wang Zhen led the imperial army and the Xiang army, with a total of more than 20,000 soldiers guarding the city.

When the Fangla bandits came to attack the city of Hangzhou, I would also hang the heads of Zhu Chong and Zhu Meng on the city tower, and put a recruiting slogan with white silk and red letters to break the enemy's morale.

The three beloved ministers led the West Route Army, divided the troops into two groups, and first stationed themselves outside Hangzhou City.

Liu Yanqing and Yang Weizhong led the left and right armies respectively, acting as horns to each other.

When the Fangla bandit army was unable to attack the city, Liu Yanqing and Yang Weiwei led their troops to charge at the left and right flanks of the Fangla bandit army.

The Fang La bandit army was unable to capture the city of Hangzhou as it moved forward, and was attacked from both sides by our Western Route Army of the Song Dynasty, so it was bound to be defeated.

At that time, two generals, Liu Yanqing and Yang Weizhong, led their troops and continued to pursue the defeated Fangla bandit army. I will also arrange an army to stop the Fangla bandit army on its way...

When the time comes, try to surround Fang La's bandit army and prevent the leader of the bandits, Fang La, from escaping.

Three beloved ladies,

Soldiers are a major issue for the country!

All three of you, my dear friends, have been on the battlefield for a long time. Please tell me the truth and see if the plan I have come up with is feasible."

Taking charge of the Privy Council, the eunuch Tong Guan was extremely shocked! He never expected that the Zhao family, who was good at calligraphy and painting, now knew so much about military affairs?

Turning around, Tong Guan's face showed an expression of great admiration, and he praised:

"O sage officials! The plans they come up with are hundreds of times better than those used by Sun Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period!"

Zhao Ji smiled, knowing that the great eunuch Tong Guan was good at flattery, and his words should not be taken seriously. Even if I were the chosen time traveler, in terms of strategies and tactics, I would definitely not be able to compete with Sun Wu who could write "The Art of War"!

After Liu Yanqing thought for a moment, he said in shock:

"The officials are wise, this plan is even brilliant!"

After Zhao Ji heard Liu Yanqing, who had led troops in the northwest for many years, say this, he felt a little relieved.

"Your Majesty Yang Weizhong, I dare to ask the officials, how can we conclude that the Fangla bandit army will definitely attack the city of Hangzhou?"

Zhao Ji finally heard different voices, and he could still accept different opinions in his heart. After all, he was still just a layman in military command, and was still learning and making progress.

However, regarding Yang Weizhong's question, Zhao Ji was sure in his heart that Fang La's bandit army would definitely come to attack Hangzhou.

Traveler Zhao Ji can confirm this.

After all, in the history he knew, after Fang La's uprising, he led his army to capture several states and counties before attacking the city of Hangzhou. Moreover, due to the slack military defense in the southeast of the Song Dynasty, Fang La's bandit army had almost no effort.

So they captured the city of Hangzhou.

Zhao Ji said: "I know that after Fang La's uprising, he led the bandit army to attack the prefectures and counties. Looking at his marching route, he came towards the city of Hangzhou."

Yang Weizhong bowed and clasped his fists, and said: "I also saw that Fang La's bandit army wanted to attack Hangzhou City. However, if Fang La heard that the officials had personally conquered Hangzhou City and were stationed in Hangzhou City, Fang La's bandit army would still dare to attack.

Hangzhou City?"

Zhao Ji smiled and said: "I have sent three messengers to recruit Fangla last night.

According to the report from the detective horse, the three messengers were detained by Fang La in the bandit camp and have not returned yet.

I guess that most of the three peace envoys have surrendered to the enemy.

If one of the three security envoys surrenders to the enemy, he will reveal the military situation in Hangzhou City.

If the rebel Fang La, who is determined to seize the world, learns that I only brought more than 10,000 forbidden troops into Hangzhou City, plus the nearly 10,000 Xiang troops originally transferred from Hangzhou City with weaker combat effectiveness,

Taken together, there are only about 20,000 officers and soldiers in such a large city of Hangzhou.

Please think about it, Qing, will Fang La, who is determined to compete for the world, come to attack the city of Hangzhou?"

The eunuch Tong Guan hurriedly agreed: "What the officials said is absolutely true. Fang La will definitely lead his troops to attack the city of Hangzhou."

Liu Yanqing also echoed: "My minister Yanqing agrees with the official sage."

Yang Weizhong said: "The official's analysis is reasonable. However, I don't know whether the Fang La bandit army can abandon Fuchun City instead of attacking, as the official expected, but take a detour to directly capture Hangzhou City?"

Zhao Ji smiled and said: "I sent dozens of groups of exploration horses from last night to this morning. According to the reports from the exploration horses, the front of Fangla's bandit army has already moved out. They abandoned Fuchun City overnight and took a detour north to Hangzhou.

Coming from the direction..."

After hearing this, Yang Weizhong responded and said: "If the military situation is like this, my minister Yang Weizhong will agree with the official strategy. This official strategy is very good!"

Tong Guan, however, sneered at Yang Weizhong and said, "General Yang has wasted so much time talking, but in the end he still has to agree with the officials' tactics, okay?"

Didn’t I already say that Zhao Guan’s family has very clever plans?”

Liu Yanqing curled up his lips, showing an arrogant expression that was mocking Yang Weizhong.

Yang Weizhong, however, said to Tong Guan in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "The military is an important matter for the country and should not be trivial. Only after I inquire about the military situation can I agree with Zhao Guan's plan."

When Zhao Ji heard this, he very much agreed with Yang Weizhong's approach. After all, Yang Weizhong only agreed with my strategy after careful consideration and inquiring about military information. Unlike Tong Guan and Liu Yanqing, who might have agreed with me just to flatter me.

plan.

Yang Weizhong continued: "I am Weizhong, dare to ask the officials, and the defense in the city must be foolproof.

After all, it is unknown which city gate the Fang La bandit army will attack after their arrival.

Only when the city is well defended can there be a tactic in which I will lead my troops and General Liu will lead his troops to attack from the left and right together to kill the enemy's two wings."

Zhao Ji said truthfully: "General Wang Zhen is stationed in Hangzhou City, and the city defense has been properly arranged. It will surely be able to withstand several attacks by Fangla's bandit army."

Here, Zhao Ji didn't say much about Wang Zhen's ability to defend the city. After all, that was all in the future.

Only then did Yang Weizhong feel relieved and expressed his stance again, saying:

"The strategy the officials came up with is very good. With thorough preparation, this strategy is feasible!"

Zhao Ji said with a smile: "Since you, my dear friends, think that my plan is feasible, then when Fangla's bandit army cannot attack the city and 'falls again and is exhausted', I will order people to stand on the tower.

Use the sound of drums as a trumpet.

At that time, Liu Aiqing and Yang Aiqing heard the loud beating of drums from the city tower, so they led the left and right troops to attack the left and right wings of Fang La's bandit army."

Liu Yanqing and Yang Weizhong received the order and received the order.

Tong Guan said with a smile: "The official will definitely win this battle. After receiving the imperial decree from the official to mobilize troops, Tong Guan selected two generals from the West Route Army who were good at fighting and had numerous military exploits, General Liu and

General Yang, lead your elite troops south to suppress the bandits!"

Zhao Ji smiled slightly. He knew that Tong Guan was taking the opportunity to flatter and praise me again, and then by the way, he praised the two generals he had transferred to show his merit.

At this time, Liu Yanqing gave Tong Guan a wink.

Although, when Liu Yanqing gave this wink, he felt that he was quite secretive.

However, it seemed that the Zhao Guan family inadvertently looked at the large troop transport ships parked in the canal on the shore of the dock.

In fact, Zhao Guan's family still caught a glimpse of Liu Yanqing, winking at Tong Guan.

After Tong Guan got Liu Yanqing's hint, he immediately kowtowed to Zhao Guan's family and said:

"The minister Tong Guanqi reported to the officials, as the saying goes: Brothers who fight tigers, father and son go into battle!"

Now, among the northwest army that has been ordered to go south, there is a father and son who dare to go into battle."

"Oh?!" Zhao Ji pretended to be amazed.

In fact, he had guessed that he was inseparable. After all, judging from Liu Yanqing's wink to Tong Guan just now, the 'father and son soldiers' that Tong Guan wanted to recommend were probably Liu Yanqing and one of the four future ZTE generals.

Liu Guangshi became father and son.

Zhao Ji pretended not to know and asked: "Who are these 'father and son soldiers' in the Northwest Army?!"

Tong Guan knelt down and said: "General Manager of Yanyan Road, Liu Yanqing, who is temporarily under the control of the Zuo Army this time, and his son, General Liu Guangshi, are going south to quell the chaos in the Song Dynasty..."

Zhao Ji smiled and knew that he had guessed correctly.

He then asked Liu Yanqing: "Liu Aiqing, you also brought your beloved son?!"

Liu Yanqing knelt down and said: "Your Majesty Yanqing has brought Liu Guangshi, the dog son, with him in the army. My father and son are willing to be loyal to the official family and do their best for us in the Song Dynasty to quell the Fang La bandit army, without fear of life or death."

Zhao Ji knew that Liu Yanqing wanted to recommend his second son Liu Guangshi to me through Tong Guan. Isn't it just to climb my big tree earlier so that he could climb up faster?

Liu Yanqing brought his son Liu Guangshi to quell the banditry in the southeast, probably because he wanted to help his son gain more military glory.

Zhao Ji felt that this was the time to employ people, and all these were acceptable.

After all, Liu Guangshi was also one of the four ZTE generals in the Southern Song Dynasty in history. However, Liu Guangshi, a famous ZTE general, had far more water content than the other three famous ZTE generals, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, and Yue Fei. Liu Guangshi's opinion of

When the Jin army is fighting, when they encounter a strong enemy, they will lead their troops to escape...

Zhao Ji smiled and said: "I really want to meet General Liu's beloved son Liu Guangshi. Tong Aiqing, please call Liu Guangshi over quickly to see me."

Tong Guan happily obeyed the order and trotted to the shore of the pier to call Liu Guangshi, who was already prepared to meet the driver.

Liu Yanqing cast a grateful look at Tong Guan.

Zhao Ji saw Liu Guangshi walking towards here following Tong Guan. He was tall, wearing a helmet and had a dignified appearance.

Liu Guangshi kowtowed and said:

"Your Majesty, Liu Guangshi, comes to visit the official family. Long live my emperor..."

Zhao Ji helped Liu Guangshi up with a smile and asked:
