After being drunk, Li Canglan talked about the Battle of Huashu River for the second time. Zhang Xiaowu didn't know why he couldn't forget it, so he asked what the battle of Huashu River meant to you. Li Canglan was silent for a long time, and then said: "Father.
He was a member of the Xuanwu Army in the Battle of Birch River, and his master was one of the few generals who survived the Battle of Birch River."
Only then did Zhang Xiaowu understand why he could not forget the Battle of Huashu River. It turned out that the enemies of the country and the family were united, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "In the future, you and I will lead the army to the north to attack the capital of Beiyi, and capture the Beiyi alive."
King Yi, with one strike from you and one strike from me, I will cut him into pieces with ten thousand swords."
Li Canglan slapped the table and said: "I want to lead the Xuanwu Army and conquer Guandong!"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "I'll help you!"
Li Canglan looked excited and said: "With Xianzhi's help, a certain family will be even more powerful. Can you first tell us how to exterminate the Beiyi? Do you have a plan in mind? What conditions are needed?"
Zhang Xiaowu was stunned and asked: "Do you really have this plan?"
Li Canglan said with red eyes: "My wish is to conquer Guandong and expand my territory. How can I laugh at that?"
Zhang Xiaowu pondered for a moment and said: "The plan to destroy the Northern Yi is really huge. I only want to talk about my previous plan. If you want to destroy the Northern Yi, you must first destroy the Mohe. If you want to destroy the Mohe, you must first win over the Mohe. Each of the eight Mohe tribes is different, and they take turns to be kings. We
You can do business with one or several of them, make them rich, and make them a model of Chinese culture. This will definitely lead to
This aroused the jealousy of other tribes. After that, we sow discord and let them kill each other, and took the opportunity to assimilate and win over each other. If this happens, Mohe will definitely perish. And when Mohe perishes, the Northern Yi will also perish. For so many years, the Northern Yi has not sent a large army to destroy Mohe.
, because they know that once they destroy Mohe, they will have to break their muscles and bones, and they will have to face the Holy Han directly."
Li Canglan said: "You are talking about the direction of the situation, but how to fight the march?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "You cannot use troops to destroy Mohe, but you must use troops to destroy Northern Yi. Northern Yi has its own language, writing, culture, beliefs, and sacrifices, so to destroy Northern Yi, you must attack with the army. The biggest difficulty in destroying Northern Yi is not that Northern Yi is more numerous."
It is difficult to attack, but the farther north you march, the more difficult it becomes, especially the need to pass through twelve rivers and several swamps, so you can only attack in winter. However, attacking in winter faces a long supply line, and Beiyi
People are accustomed to fighting in winter, and they have the advantage of time and geography, so they can retain the court of the Beiyi Khan. Therefore, we can force the Beiyi people to have a decisive battle with the army, and then send two groups of surprise troops. First, we can force the Beiyi people to fight with the army.
One road goes along the Dead Sea Desert in the north of Saibei to the northeast for a quick cavalry battle, and the other road goes along the east coastline by boat, and finally reaches the coast of the East China Sea of Beiyi, and penetrates directly into the heart of Beiyi's abdomen from the east and west."
Li Canglan's eyes widened and he suddenly shouted: "Have you already thought of a countermeasure?"
Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said nothing, but then shook his head and sighed: "The Holy Han Empire has failed several times in its northern expedition to the Northern Yi, so once it proposes to attack the Northern Yi, it will definitely encounter all kinds of obstacles. Even the generalissimo will not
He used his White Tiger Army to attack the Northern Yi, so this strategy is just a fantasy."
Li Canglan laughed loudly, put the two jars of wine on the table, and said: "Come, come, come, enjoy, enjoy, drink!" Zhang Xiaowu sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman, and took a swig from the wine jar with him, and this sip of wine did arrive.
When he got there, he put down the wine jar unsteadily. Seeing that Li Canglan was also walking in a trance, he laughed and said: "My dear brother, if one day I am the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition and you are the deputy commander-in-chief, you and I will destroy the Beiyi together."
,how?"
"Okay, it's settled in one word." Zhang Xiaowu said with great ambition.
Li Canglan laughed heartily and said: "I will definitely become a commander-in-chief, and I will definitely lead the Xuanwu Legion to defeat the Beiyi!" After saying this, maybe it was too much, Li Canglan fell directly on the table and smashed his head.
It got into the plates and bowls, and the food and wine fell all over the floor.
When the soldiers outside heard the sound, they rushed in. His subordinate Min Bachi sighed, and pushed Li Canglan, who was lying in the food and wine, and called: "Uncle, uncle, little uncle?" Then he discovered that
He was really drunk, so he could only smile bitterly, and said as usual: "Come on, it's too much. My little uncle, who can't drink well, still insists on drinking, but he only does this when he meets a good friend. It seems that my little uncle has to drink."
Uncle admires General Zhang very much."
Zhang Xiaowu was also stunned for a long time. He thought Li Canglan was drunk and passionate, but he didn't expect that he was so drunk. He could only smile and shake his head. However, Zhang Xiaowu admired him very much in his heart. This man had ideals and ambitions, and wanted to rebuild the Xuanwu Legion for the Northern Expedition.
Beiyi avenged his father's murder, and now he has taken refuge with Du Shanbo and has been re-employed as a lieutenant general in the Royal Forest Army. He should be not far from his goal.
The servants packed everything, and Min Balchi asked for another table of food and drinks. Zhang Xiaowu said that he had eaten and drank enough and there was no need to eat or drink anymore. Min Balchi bowed and left, and told him: "We will definitely protect the general's safety."
.”
Zhang Xiaowu was a little confused. At midnight, he suddenly heard a noise outside. He got up to check, but saw a group of imperial guards protecting the warehouse. Zhang Xiaowu turned around and took the Beiyi weapon from the box, holding it in his hand.
But then things calmed down outside. Zhang Xiaowu slept restlessly, not knowing what kind of enemy he was about to face.
When Zhang Xiaowu woke up the next day, he only heard someone talking outside. Then he saw a servant bringing sobering soup and some snacks. He lowered his head and said cautiously: "General, please have some breakfast."
Zhang Xiaowu had a splitting headache and waved his hand to let him go down. After the servant went down, Zhang Xiaowu went back to bed and continued to fall asleep. This time he really slept until he woke up naturally. When he woke up, he was very thirsty and prepared to drink hangover soup. But he
With an extra thought, he poured the sobering soup first, and then said: "People from outside come in, is there any sobering soup?"
Two imperial guardsmen came in and said, "General, we don't have hangover soup."
Zhang Xiaowu said curiously: "In the morning, someone came to deliver hangover soup."
The two looked at each other and said: "In the morning, a eunuch was found strangled to death outside. We went to take a look at the excitement, but we didn't see anyone else and didn't give anything away. The Marquis said, unless you call
Us, otherwise we are not allowed to enter the warehouse and disturb the general's rest."
Zhang Xiaowu was shocked and asked them to go out first.
After a while, Li Canglan came with his people. Seeing the snacks on his table, he walked over and took some to eat. Zhang Xiaowu quickly stopped him and told the strange things this morning. Li Canglan immediately asked someone to find a dog and put the snacks on the table.
After feeding the dog, the dog convulsed and died after a while.
Li Canglan was furious and said: "Who? Who dares to do this to General Zhang?"
