Chapter 301: Hard-to-Eat
At this time, Yang Guang, in the hall, was as agreed last night. When Yang Jian rejected the army heading to the emperor and the prince, Yang Guang offered another candidate.
"There is another candidate for the King of Han, who can command the millions of elite troops of our Great Sui Dynasty to fight against the Turks! The minister also recommended that the Secretary Zuo Pushe Gao Bing be the chief minister, and the King of the Shangzhu Shiji be the marching Sima!"
When Yang Jian heard this proposal, his brows frowned. During the Eastern Expedition, 300,000 people even died without even seeing the Goguryeo figure. And most importantly, after the defeat and returned, Yang Liang and Gao Jin even started a quarrel and blamed each other, which made Yang Jian very dissatisfied. Now that Yang Guang proposed that the two of them be the commander of the army, Yang Jian suddenly felt dissatisfied. If it were not for Yang Guang's proposal, Yang Jian had always considered that Gao Jin would be such a coordinator in his heart, but now when Yang Guang proposed, he immediately rejected it in his heart.
If Yang Jian's veto of Gao Yang was only because of his defeat in the Eastern Expedition last year, he had some distrust of the old friend. Then Yang Jian, Wang Yang Liang, really did not trust the Han Dynasty. He had been in the capital for more than 20 years and was sent to Bingzhou to take office last year, he was full of hope for his son. However, after the Eastern Expedition last year, he had already seen that his youngest son was actually just like the playboys from the wealthy families in the capital, and he was glamorous. Winning and losing in the war is common, but the key is that his son's performance after the war was not in any way reflecting and checking. Instead, he just shirked responsibility and accused Gao Yang, and refused to take any responsibility at all. This son was still too young and lacked experience. In the upcoming war, he was not suitable to serve as the commander. Even if it was just a nominal commander.
Before Yang Jian could veto, Yang Liang had already jumped up and shouted: "Your father, my son is not feeling well recently, so I may not be able to take on this heavy responsibility."
Yang Jian's face looked a little ugly. Yang Liang refused to fight in front of all the civil and military officials of the court. The surface was too bad.
"Your Majesty, since the King of Han is not in good health, I still want to recommend one person. King Zhao was the chief supervisor of Wuzhou and stationed his troops on the frontier. Last year, he defeated the Turkic cavalry with weak troops one after another, with good command and courage. As the eldest grandson of the royal family, when the court hired people, I thought that King Zhao was just in charge of the country to repay His Majesty's favor." Yang Guang continued to recommend.
Yi Feng also stood up quickly and refused: "I dare to serve the country. I dare not do my best. However, I am only weak, but I have made me a mere small contribution on the frontier. The current battle is related to the fate of the country. What kind of virtue can I be able to lead the entire army? I ask Your Majesty, but I only ask for a vanguard. It is enough to charge for Your Majesty!"
Yang Jian looked at Yi Feng and finally sighed softly. "The King of Zhao is not lacking in courage and strategy. However, he is young and lacks qualifications and reputation, and is not suitable for serving as the commander of the three armies." As he said, Yang Jian glanced at the hall. In the hall, there were no less than a hundred members of the upper pillar country, but most of them were either old or young. Many of the original positions of generals, such as the generals, have now become the officials of many honorary clans. There are also some good generals, such as He Ruobi, Shi Wansui, Han Sengshou, Yang Su, Gao Bing, Cui Hongdu, Wei Chong, etc., but he was not at ease to grant such authority to a foreign minister.
The only one who can really reassure him was only a few sons. Even a royal family like Yang Xiong, the King of Qingzhang, was difficult to reassure him. But among the sons, the prince was incompetent, the King of Han was not brave, the King of Qin was sick and depressed, and the King of Shu was eager to try it out, but this son was brave and too fierce, and was not the one who led the whole situation. In this way, the only second son Yang Guang was left in the hall that could meet his wishes.
Looking at Yang Guang, Yang Jian suddenly felt that the more he thought about the King of Jin, the more he thought about it, the more he was. First of all, King of Jin had the experience of commanding troops to attack the Turks in his early years, and later served as the commander to pacify Chen's army of more than 500,000 troops. It can be said that Yang Guang was really suitable to serve as the commander of the attack on the Turks. If he was not suitable, no one would be more suitable. Moreover, he remembered the discussion on the attack on Goryeo at the beginning of the year. At first, Yang Guang recommended himself to command the troops, but later the Yi people in Nanyue rebelled, and Yang Guang
He couldn't get out of his origin. After he appointed Yang Liang as the commander, the King of Jin also submitted several times that the King of Han was not suitable for commanding the army. He also said many suggestions about the Eastern Expedition, such as being elected to advance after the autumn, or strengthening the ability to transport food and grass, strengthening epidemic prevention, etc. Unfortunately, he did not pay much attention to it at that time. As a result, in the end, the 300,000 troops of the Eastern Expedition did not even see a Goguryeo ghost, and then they first developed epidemics, then encountered storms, heavy rains, and then food was cut off, and almost all the troops were wiped out.
The more I thought about Yang Jian, the more I felt that Yang Guang was suitable. In the end, I couldn't help but pat on the imperial case, "I already have the best commander."
At this time, there was no need for Yang Jian to say that everyone already knew who this candidate was. Gao Yang sat there, sighing and frowned. He had a mistake. He felt that he had a very wrong plan today. From beginning to end, Yang Guang took the initiative and was led by him. He originally wanted to ask himself to command the army, but Yang Guang was very clever to recommend him and the incompetent guy of the King of Han, and he was rejected by the emperor at once. In addition, he had recommended the emperor, the crown prince, and later Yang Lin in succession. In the end, the suitable candidates were introduced and rejected by the emperor, and the rest was the most suitable one.
Originally, Gao Bing planned to recommend Yang Guang to command the army first, and then oppose it by the Minister of War Liu Shu and others, and then recommend the crown prince as the chief commander, and then he served as the eldest brother to actually command the army. Who knew that in the end, this result was achieved.
At this time, Yang Jian had already said slowly in front of the imperial case: "King of Jin Yang Guang, who has always been wise and capable of civility and martial arts. In the third year of Kaihuang, he led the army to attack the Turks. In the ninth year of Kaihuang, he also led 109 generals to 510,000 troops to attack and destroy Nanchen. He commanded the troops several times, all of whom lived up to their trust. Now that the battle with the Turks is about to be imminent, a clan like King Jin needs to serve his life and kill the enemy for the country. I have decided to choose King Jin as the marshal of the Northern Expedition of Turks, and the general leader of the Turks, and control all the generals."
Yang Guang was finally appointed as the marshal of the marshal, which was both unexpected and unexpected. Previously, the army saw Yi Feng being awarded the title of King Zhao, Shangzhu Kingdom, Sikong, and Yongzhou, all felt that the position of the prince gradually became heavier and stable with the return of the legitimate son. Therefore, when it comes to the selection of the marshal of the Tu, they all felt that Yang Guang, the King of Jin, did not have much chance to take office. After all, this position of command is too important, and taking this position will undoubtedly achieve great prestige. They originally thought that they would lead the position of commander in the name of the prince, or not the commander of the three armies, but only the chief or Sima to coordinate various troops, and then set up three marshals and generals of the marshals below. Who knew that the emperor appointed a commander of the three armies and gave this position to Yang Guang. For a time, many ministers who thought the position of the prince had been stable were confused. Could it be that the dispute over the throne had not yet been settled?
The candidate for the marching marshal has been decided, but the entire command organization is not yet complete.
According to the plan of the emperor and ministers, the Sui Dynasty would divide hundreds of thousands of heavy troops into three main soldiers and three strange soldiers. The three main soldiers were Longyou, Hedong and Hebei, and the three surprising soldiers were Hetao, the three Sui Dynasty border troops in the pass, Liaoxi, and there would be three foreign soldiers, namely the Tuyuhun army in Hexi, the Tuli army in the grassland, and the Xishi Khitan Sanfan Hu cavalry in the northeast. A total of hundreds of thousands of troops were divided into nine parts, scattered on the border thousands of miles away. Of course, it would not be possible to command it with a commander.
The marshal of the marshal was the commander of the three armies and commanded all the troops, but it was only a strategic command. In terms of details, it was still divided into individual theaters to fight separately. Therefore, under the marshal of the marshal, three general managers must first be established, each unified the main soldiers, and three general managers must be established to command the three surprise soldiers. In addition, the three foreign soldiers must be assigned to the command.
The three foreigners only need to send liaison envoys, but the Sui army still has three general managers and three marching generals. These three general managers and three marching generals are equivalent to three war zones and three fronts. All have to choose excellent generals who can stand alone to command.
"Before the three armies move, food and grass will go first. This time the battle between our Great Sui Dynasty and the Turks will be a battle of millions of soldiers and horses, and the front line is even thousands of miles wide. The issue of food and grass is particularly important. I recommend the Secretary of the Shangshu Zuo Pushe Gao Yang, who lives in the capital, and is responsible for the president's coordination and dispatch of food and grass transportation and supplies." After Yang Guang was appointed as the marshal of the court, the first proposal to Yang Jian was to appoint Gao Yang as the general military officer.
Yang Guang's move was very powerful. He took the initiative to appoint Gao Yang as the general military officer, and firstly he expelled Gao Yang from the command center of the attack on the Turkic attack. Secondly, although Yang Guang asked Gao Yang to be responsible for the food and grass military officer, and seemed to hand over the lifeline of the army to Gao Yang, the scale of this war was extremely large. It is no exaggeration to say that it is indeed related to the fate of the entire Sui Dynasty. Even if Gao Yang wants to secretly make trouble, it is impossible. It can be said that if Gao Yang does his best to do his best to provide food and grass supply and demand, this is
He should have won this battle. The biggest function of Yang Guang, who Gao Ying did not make much contribution. If there is something wrong with the military supplies, then Gao Yang will be dereliction of duty at the least, and Gao Yang will be impeached to deliberately want to lose the battle. Even if the battle is lost, Yang Guang will definitely be able to blame Gao Yang, who is responsible for supplying military supplies. After all, in wartime, being responsible for military supplies is a very tired and unpleasant job. No matter how good you do, there will always be some things that are not in place.
Yang Guang's move was actually Yi Feng's trick. Of course, Yang Su also coincided with Yi Feng. Three sinister guys got together and soon developed this most sinister move. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
