Chapter 110: Marching into Huangzhong, First Buddy
Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs.
This is also the reason why Zhang Dun now appreciates and identifies with Zhao Si more and more in his heart.
"Consult people but not land?" Huang Fu thought for a while, then shook his head, "Zhang Xiang, I still haven't figured it out."
"Because it involves military secrets, brother Qiaofu's letter did not mention anything about this battle."
Since being blocked by Zhao Si several times, Zhang Dun's temper has improved a lot and he patiently explained to Huang Fu.
There is nothing I can do, if I continue to be as bad-tempered as before, all my men will run away.
"I only inferred His Royal Highness King Jian's battle ideas from these successive military reports. The land in Huangzhong is just a bait, and King Jian wants to use it to catch the main force of the Xia army. Huangzhong is a muddy land to our Song army, and to our Song army, Huangzhong is just a bait.
Isn’t it Xia Jun?”
"Those Tibetan tribes can be incited and bribed by the Xia State to deal with our Song Army. Can't they be incited and bribed by the State Dynasty to deal with the Xia Army?"
Zhang Dun's words were like a thunderbolt.
The enlightened Huang Fu clapped his hands on the table in surprise, stood up, and danced.
"Why didn't Mr. Huang think of it? He just thought that those Tibetan tribes had different intentions and would be harmful to the Song army. He didn't think that we could also bribe them. These vulgar people forget their loyalty when they see profit. If they offer a little big profit, they will be able to do it in no time.
Win over."
Zhang Dun waved his hands and paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.
"It's not that simple."
You guys are too idealistic. You think that as long as you read Confucius' sage book, everyone can restrain themselves and restore etiquette. As long as benevolence is in place, things can be done naturally.
Just think of good things here.
"Everything in this world is easier said than done. When we look at the military reports now, we only feel that King Jian is victorious, but we don't see how much thought he put into it and how much he did. Rumors in the market say that he is
I somewhat believe that Shizong of the former Zhou Dynasty was reincarnated as a child. He is capable of both literary and military skills. I underestimated him before."
"When your wings are fully formed, you can spread your wings to help others."
Zhang Dun's last words shocked Huang Fu, Zhang Shuo and Zhang Yuan.
In the Zuoyiwei Camp in Wansheng Town, in the war room of the General Staff Bureau, there is a huge map of the military situation in the northwest hanging at the front.
Sitting in the front row below were more than sixty people, all of whom were outstanding members of the officer training team and the backbone of the Iron Blood Regiment.
Zhang Shuye was the host of the meeting, Liu Kai was the duty officer, and Changsun Moli and Zeng Baohua were the record-keepers respectively. Sitting at the front were Wei Baoqing, Bai Chonghu, Zhong Shizhong, Yang Weizhong, Zhao Long, Gao Yongnian and others.
"This military report was specially sent to the General Staff Bureau by His Royal Highness King Jian. It contains a detailed combat process. I just want to provide it for everyone's reference and study together."
Zhang Shuye first got straight to the point and explained the theme of this meeting.
"Zhong Yan, you come and read the military newspaper. Zhao Long and Gao Yongnian, you put up signs and show the combat posture. We will restore the entire process of His Royal Highness King Jian's battle tonight."
As the only one in the conference room who had read the detailed military report, Zhang Shuye's voice was trembling.
"After we understand it, we will gather the officers of the training team to review and study together."
"good!"
Zhang Shuye heard everyone's response, but saw Liu Kai still there, fascinated by the military report.
"Zhongyan, Zhongyan!" Zhang Shuye called twice, waking Liu Kai up.
Liu Kai raised his head, with a look of surprise and disbelief on his face.
"His Royal Highness's use of troops is as unconventional as an antelope's horns. Although it is only the first time, it shows everyone's momentum. You can measure yourself and predict the enemy's surroundings... It is really unpredictable! Even the reincarnation of Guangwu Taizong is nothing more than this. "
After hearing Liu Kai's sigh, Bai Chonghu couldn't help but ask.
"Guangwu, I know, he is Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. Is Taizong the emperor of this dynasty?"
"Former Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty!"
Everyone was speechless, but it could be seen from the expressions on their faces that they strongly agreed with Liu Kai's determination.
After coughing a few times, Liu Kai began to read.
"On the second day of September, King Jian sent Liu Fa as commander, Guo Cheng, Wang Zhen, and Wang Gan as deputy commanders, Gao Shixuan, Li Zhongxiao, and Zhang Cunyi as vanguards. They led 40,000 Xihe Qinfeng soldiers and horses to form the Huangzhong Army and left the capital of Lanzhou. From Yuguan, go west along the Huangshui River."
"In just over ten days, Lianke captured the cities of Chunzong, Longzhuhei, Miaochuan, Zongge, Qingtang, Linjin, Maoniu, Xige, Fugong, Jianzha, Bajin, and Dangdang. The leader of the country, Xi Zheng, as well as more than ten major leaders including Wu Si Zheng, Mu Zheng, Xiba Wen and his son, all led their troops to surrender."
"According to the instructions of King Jian, Xi Zheng, the leader of the Zunsiluo Kingdom, took his two sons to Kaifeng to submit a surrender letter and offer soil to surrender. The family members were resettled in Xizhou. More than ten people including Wusichan, Mu Zheng, Xibawen and his son, etc. A great leader went to the former enemy headquarters in Xizhou and surrendered, and his family members were resettled in the three cities of Qingtang, Zongge, and Miaochuan."
"But the Xia State responded very quickly. Judging from the inference, when King Jian was still inspecting the Lanzhou front line and secretly dispatching troops and generals, the Xia State had already noticed the abnormality and began to secretly mobilize troops and horses to prepare for the response. And It can be seen that they judged very accurately that our army's target is in Huangzhong."
Hearing this, Zhao Long couldn't help raising his hand and asked to speak.
The host of the meeting, Zhang Shuye, pointed at him, indicating that he could add something.
"We in the Western Army have been fighting with the Xia Army for nearly a hundred years. Every family wears mourning and every household holds funerals. We have a blood feud with the Hexi family. However, some people in the prefectures and counties along the five border roads cannot stand it. For the sake of money, they have liaison with the Xia State. Smuggling, To leak military aircraft... there is nothing they can't do if you give them money."
When Zhao Long said this, he gritted his teeth.
"There are still many scholars and Confucian scholars who do not respect themselves. They learn of confidential military information through relatives, friends, teachers, classmates, etc., and then turn around and talk about it, thinking that they have the capital to show off."
"The Hexi family was also cunning. They planted themselves in Shaanxi Sixth Road and bought many spies. The most active place in Xiandao Hall was Shaanxi Sixth Road, and later it extended to Kaifeng City."
Zhao Long's words made everyone's expressions become solemn.
Yang Weizhong said in a deep voice: "What Brother Zhao said is true. The deployment of our armies must not be hidden from the places where they are stationed. There must be spies from the Hexi family among the people in these places. Therefore, the Xia State can quickly know about the changes in our army. Although I’m not angry, it’s a fact that I can’t help.”
He raised his head and glanced at everyone, "I feel that Xia Guo can quickly judge the intentions of our army and realize that our army's target is in Huangzhong. This is worthy of vigilance. Although His Highness King Jian here deliberately leaked his whereabouts, leaked information, and guided him The result. But judging from the reaction speed of Xia Army, Xia State judged the intention of our army earlier than we predicted."
Zhang Shuye stroked his beard and said, "You mean there is an expert in the Xia Kingdom? This expert is familiar with His Highness King Jian's actions."
Yang Weizhong nodded.
"Well, when you said that, I remembered someone." Zhang Shuye said slowly: "Li Qingluan, the princess of Xiliang County in Xia Kingdom!" This chapter has been completed!
