Chapter 236

Forcibly transporting Meng Jin

As Liu Yizhen expected, the generals of Liu Song had indeed started a dispute.

Although Tan Daoji, Zhu Chaoshi and others were experienced generals, the sudden death of Liu Yu and the critical situation of hundreds of thousands of troops still made the strings in their minds tense.

And being tight all the time will inevitably lead them to make some wrong judgments.

Fortunately, Liu Yizhen is here now.

Both Tan Daoji and Zhu Chaoshi had met Liu Yizhen.

Tan Daoji had met Liu Yizhen several times when he was in Jiankang, and Zhu Chaoshi was Liu Yilong's Sima when he was in Luoyang. When they heard Liu Yizhen coming to the battle, they felt as if a huge stone had fallen in their hearts.

When the two came to the Luoyang city wall, they saw that it was Liu Yizhen who was coming with an army, and they hurriedly welcomed Liu Yizhen into the city.

Liu Yizhen also felt that things were different when he saw the two of them again.

But now is not the time for nostalgia.

Liu Yizhen urgently needs to know the current situation on the battlefield.

It's just that the relationship between the main force of the Song Army and the Shangdang was severed. Tan Daoji didn't know where the main force of the Song Army was now, so he only talked about the situation of the Shangdang.

When he heard that Xie Hui had also gone to the Shangdang Army, Liu Yizhen's face became even more ugly.

But he did not hold Tan Daoji accountable.

By being able to guard for five days, Tan Daoji has reached the limit of what he can do.

Just as Tan Daoji and Xie Hui deduced before, if Tan Daoji's tribe stayed in Hanoi County, it would give the Northern Wei Dynasty an opportunity to raid Luoyang. Once Luoyang was gone, everything else would be in vain.

Although the situation of the main force of the Song Army is unknown at the moment...but the unknown situation is good news!

Liu Yizhen now wants to bring out the 50,000 Song troops from Shangdang County as soon as possible to preserve their strength.

"Dare you ask King Qin, uh..."

Tan Daoji didn't know how to address Liu Yizhen for a while.

In terms of status, Liu Yizhen is indeed the successor, but after all, he has not yet ascended the throne, which really puts Tan Daoji in a bit of a dilemma.

"Just call him King Qin. At the moment, he has not held the enthronement ceremony. And if he ascends the throne now, won't his secret be revealed?"

Everyone still needs Liu Yu's prestige to stabilize the situation and boost morale. Liu Yizhen doesn't want to rush to the throne now.

Only then did Tan Daoji feel relieved: "May I ask how many people and horses His Highness the King of Qin has brought?"

"Ten thousand!"

When he heard this number, Tan Daoji's eyes were a little disappointed.

Ten thousand people...

It's not even enough to fill the teeth of Xijin's 100,000-strong army.

If this is the case, wouldn't there be no chance of counterattack?

"What is General Tan thinking?"

Liu Yizhen could see Tan Daoji's disappointment, but he was not annoyed either.

"General Tan is trying to say that a mere 10,000 troops may not be able to counterattack back to Hebei?"

"wrong!"

Liu Yizhen straightened his chest and slapped his hands on the table: "In a war, it doesn't matter whether there are more soldiers or fewer soldiers. Then the Northern Wei Dynasty just surrendered directly before, so why did they resist desperately?"

Liu Yizhen came to the map and pointed with his sword, marking several forces around Shangdang County.

"Now Xijin's 50,000-strong army is in Hanoi, and Tuoba Si should be in Shexian with 50,000 troops."

"Their posture is to surround Shangdang from the north and south. After eating the Shangdang army, they will immediately go south to attack Luoyang."

"But because of this, the enemy we face in the southern part of Shangdang County is not the complete military strength of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but only half of Xijin!"

"Now, the 10,000 troops I brought to Pengcheng, plus the troops of General Tan and General Zhu, total 30,000. Even if 10,000 are left to garrison Luoyang, there are still 20,000 available troops!"

"Isn't 20,000 people enough to deal with the mere Northern Wei Dynasty?"

Tan Daoji and Zhu Chaoshi looked at each other.

Twenty thousand versus fifty thousand...

If Liu Yu was here, they would definitely have no objection.

But if Liu Yi is true...

Although Liu Yizhen now has some prestige among this group of proud and powerful generals, that prestige is based on Liu Yizhen's identity and status, not on fighting.

I want these generals to trust Liu Yizhen in military matters, but Liu Yizhen currently does not have the qualifications.

Seeing the two people hesitating, Liu Yizhen was not annoyed.

Fighting is not just about talking.

One careless move could cost the lives of thousands of soldiers. If Tan Daoji and Zhu Chaoshi just handed over the life and death of tens of thousands of soldiers to Liu Yizhen, they would be in vain for the title of "famous general".

Liu Yizhen pointed at Aocang and Zhi counties on both sides of Hanoi County.

"We can make a fuss from these two places."

Tan Daoji and Zhu Lingshi looked around, wondering what Liu Yi really wanted to do.

"You two, why did Xi Jin dare not use the Hebei cavalry at will before, but now he is so unscrupulous?"

This is of course because the main force of the Song Army is not there and there is no force to contain Xi Jin!

Otherwise, how could Tan Daoji use so few people to guard Xijin's 100,000-strong army in his heyday?

"Then why don't we let the situation return to what it was before and make Xi Jin dare not move?"

Tan Daoji asked in a low voice: "Does His Highness King Qin want to wait for the return of the main force?"

Stop making trouble!

When the main force of the Song army circled down from Jiexiu, Hedong, Puban, Tongguan, and Hongnong, the day lilies were already cold!

And the biggest problem now is that the main force of the Song Army cannot be contacted at all, so how can they coordinate operations?

"If there is no main force, we will create the main force!"

Unexpectedly, Liu Yizhen did not regard the main force of the Song Army as a card in his hand.

It was not a force that he could use, and Liu Yizhen never intended to use it as his own.

Otherwise, you will die miserably!

Yuan Shu in the late Han Dynasty was such a cute little boy.

He obviously only occupies Huainan, but he counts Yuan Shao's You, Ji, Qing, Four Prefectures, and Jiangdong occupied by Sun Ce as his Yuan family's territory, so he stupidly proclaims himself emperor...

What doesn’t reach your bowl is never yours.

In the same way, if you don't have military forces that you can directly command, don't count them as your cards at all.

Liu Yizhen pointed at Zhu Chaoshi: "General Zhu can disguise himself as General Zhu Lingshi and station himself in Zhi County, making Xi Jin think that our army has withdrawn from Hedong!"

"General Tan detoured back to Aocang, crossed the river, appeared from behind, and ambushed Xi Jin!"

"Gu Ze forced himself to cross the river from Mengjin!"

The last words made Tan Daoji break into a cold sweat.

"No!"

With such a division of troops, Liu Yizhen didn't have many soldiers at all.

If you forcefully cross the river rashly, you may be attacked by Xi Jin half-crossed and fall into the river to feed the fish!

"So it depends on whether the two generals can frighten Xi Jin."

Liu Yizhen disagreed.

At this point, everyone starts betting.

You are still hesitant and hesitant, is it because you think you are not dying fast enough?

Why is the founding emperor stronger than the emperor who later succeeded him?

When it comes to knowledge, Liu Bang is a prodigy (not a typo, a sensitive word), which emperor in the Han Dynasty couldn't crush him?

When it comes to fighting, it is not necessarily the case that every founding emperor relied on his own ability to conquer thousands of miles of territory like Liu Yu.

A real hero has a courage to gamble.

Winning the bet means a smooth road.

If you lose the bet, just die generously!

If decades of life are spent in hesitation, what’s the point of life?

It’s better to give it a try and change your life!

At this time, Tan Daoji looked at Liu Yizhen and was speechless.

At this moment, in his eyes, Liu Yi really looked like Liu Yu when he was young.

It's not about appearance, it's about momentum.

Now he understands why Liu Yu has always loved Liu Yizhen so much, and why he is willing to be driven by Liu Yizhen even if he is as proud as Wang Zhene.

Nothing but courage.
