Chapter 1,292 The Difference Between Civil and Military Affairs

Gao Zunyu said: "Then our army will attack in advance, advance Ganyi, Zhenguo and Dingguo along the Lingzhouchuan Road and attack Xiping Prefecture, so that Liang Yimi will not dare to move rashly."

Zhong Ji shook his head: "In that case, our unit will have another lone army. The number of the new army is too small. The three armies only have 5,000 people. A large amount of baggage is still on the way from Weizhou."

"Without heavy equipment, the new army will be ineffective; without the follow-up army to cover and occupy, even if we capture Lingzhou, it will be of little use. Our army's later strategic intention of besieging the city for reinforcements in Lingzhou City will not be realized."

Li Xian said: "Then our family will take Ariel to chase Liu Changzuo. After catching up, we will overthrow his military power!"

Su You immediately stopped him: "Wang Wenyu, Wang Wenyu, doesn't have Du Guan and Ariel in Lanzhou. I'm worried. The military supplies will be sent to you first. I also ask Du Guan and Ariel to return to Lanzhou as soon as possible. With Li Hao, I'm really worried that he won't be able to control him."

"

Looking at the map: "Three hundred miles from Weizhou to Yanzhou, there are many hills and ravines along the way. Xia people can come from the north and set up ambushes everywhere...Liu Changzuo's area is hanging..."

He raised his head and asked Wang Hou: "Is there any news about Xia Jun's movements over at Jiyi Division?"

Wang Hou shook his head: "There is big news from the Jiyi Department, which is the location where the Xia people have stored grain in twelve places within the territory. However, in terms of military trends... there has been no news since September."

Su You suddenly looked at the three surrendered generals: "Li Zhaobao, the captain, the chief, do you have any suggestions?"

The three of them looked at each other, and Yu Zanghuama smiled flatteringly: "I'm really not very good at military strategy. This... How about the Marquis talk to the chief?"

Li Wenzhao also shook his head: "I haven't left Tiandu Mountain for many years. I don't know much about the situation in Xingling area now... But I promise the Duke that as long as the Capital Strategy Department needs me, I will attack wherever I am asked.

No ambiguity!"

Yuzang Yingchengsi didn't think so much. He was originally from the Qingtang Dynasty, but because Hehuang was captured by Wang Shao, his tribe was cut off from Xixia. Therefore, the situation of Xixia, which surrendered, was similar to that of Yuzang Huama.

.

Since the day he surrendered to Su Lie, he had never thought about betraying him again. What's more, now that his son has been arranged by Su You to become Zhao Sizhong's personal guard, he feels even more honored: "Since Liu Tong's army has moved east, then

The Chinese army has also adjusted to the east. Correspondingly, on the west side, we can also go down the Yellow River and get Yingli, so that we can truly isolate the Western Region."

"Oh?" Su You was just asking casually to ease the atmosphere, but he didn't expect that a general would dare to come up with an idea.

Yu Zangying Chengsi stood up and pointed at a place with his finger, but he couldn't reach it. Seeing this, Zhongji handed the baton to him.

Yuzang Yingchengsi pointed his baton to a location on the map: "It's right here, Yingli Pass! You see, there are two main roads from Xiliang Mansion. One is along the Kaluo River and passes through Xiutuze.

Heading to Lanzhou."

The baton walked along the mountain roads on the map: "Then go west from Lanzhou, you can turn along the Huangshui River to Qingtang, and go southeast, you can enter the Central Plains."

"But out of Liangzhou, there is another road, but it goes along the root of the Great Wall. It was the road from the Western Regions to Xingqing Mansion."

"The highway reaches the Yellow River Ferry at Yingli Pass. On the other side of the ferry is the mouth of the Huluchuan River. And continuing along the Yellow River to the northeast is Mingsha City. After passing the pass, you can enter Lingzhou and Xingqing Prefecture."

"I feel that taking Lanzhou only blocked the way for the Xia army in the Western Regions to sneak attack Hehuang, but the road to rescue Xingqing was not completely blocked."

"If we capture Yingli, firstly, we can completely cut off the Xia people's reinforcements from the west, and secondly, we can form a pincer attack on Mingsha City with Weizhou."

"At the same time, the entire battlefield can be moved hundreds of miles eastward, and the military strength of the Western Army can be used rationally."

Li Xian's eyes lit up: "Wonderful, in this way, Xiaoguan and Weizhou can be used as the base camp, with Yingli, Mingsha, and Pulecheng as the front lines. There will be big roads and rivers to ensure the passage of supplies, and our army's western route will be greatly shortened.

battle line.”

"The reinforcements from Liangzhou need to travel six hundred miles to come, but the distance from our army's base camp is only two hundred miles. The trend of work and rest has changed! Hahaha, Ying Chengsi, you can do it!"

Su You rolled his eyes: "By the way, it's convenient for you to march into Xingqing, right? Just now you said it's 600 miles from Xiliang Mansion to Yingli, but isn't it also 600 miles from Lanzhou to Yingli? It's urgent.

Is it difficult to mobilize troops during the period?"

But Yu Zang and Ying Chengsi said: "It's not difficult. The Yellow River has not yet frozen. If you seize the time and use Hun to escape from the raft, you can send the team down from Lanzhou!"

Su You shook his head. Lanzhou's army was trying to guard against the Western Regions, but it was true to control Qingtang.

It would be a win-win situation for Ali Gu's 40,000 men to be on the outskirts of Lanzhou to prevent the Xia people from entering the Qing and Tang Dynasties, and also to guard the gates of the Song Dynasty.

But asking him to take chestnuts from the fire for the Great Song Dynasty is simply overthinking.

It is precisely because of this that Wen Xixin and Lin Bubi could not move even though there were more than 10,000 people.

Thinking of this, my mind came alive again. Zhao Sizhong and Bao Shun's two armies also had 60,000 people. Even if one of them was removed, the remaining army would still have an advantage against Ali Gu.

Well, Zhao Sizhong was once a vassal of Xixia, but there is no problem with Minzhou Fan of Baoshun.

Looking at Zhong Ji, Zhong Ji also nodded slightly and took the baton from Yu Zang Ying Chengsi's hand: "Lanzhou City is guarded by 80,000 troops. It is enough to support the army. We can order Bao to go down the river and capture it."

In response, Lieutenant Gao dared to divide his troops to attack Mingsha City and Yaode City, and together with Pu Le who had already obtained it, he could build a deep local strategic system centered on Weizhou."

"You can advance to attack, and you can retreat to defend. From Mingsha to Xingqing Mansion, it is only two hundred miles; from Pule to Weizhou or Yanzhou, it is also only two hundred miles."

"In this way, the armies can form a response. As long as more scouts are sent, Liu Changzuo's butt can be saved."

Su You shook his head: "No, now we have the four new armies of Dun'an, Ganyi, Zhenguo, and Dingguo, as well as college soldiers from the Military Academy. I wonder if we should arrange it more actively."

"You see, let the Dun'an army follow Lieutenant Li to capture Yingli Pass; the Ganyi army follow Gao Zongguan to capture Mingsha; the Zhenguo army captures Yaode; the Dingguo army leaves Pule, catch up with Liu Changzuo and help him

Attacking Yanzhou! Is it more feasible?"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and it felt more reasonable.

Zhong Ji looked at the military map: "Beautiful, these are the four sharp knives stuck in the middle of Xixia! If Liu Changzuo really takes Yanzhou, when Wu Lang joins the army, there will be five!"

Su You looked around the hall and saw that everyone had no objections, so he nodded and said: "Then let's do it. Tell Liu Changzuo that this adjustment is the Sixth Route Capital Strategy Department's greatest support for him, and it is also the final bottom line!"

"This time, the army did not let Li Xiang cut off his head because of his change of strategy. It was not because of his outstanding achievements, but because the adjusted plan was more perfect than before, so they spared his life!"

"If you do it again, you will be punished without mercy! I, the King of Heaven, will never even think of asking for mercy!"

Gao Zunyu asked: "In this case, Huntuo will no longer be needed? Can't we just ask Bao Shun to cross the river in Lanzhou and then walk slowly along the road?"

"No!" This time, it was Su You, Zhang Kai, and Zhong Ji who said in unison.

The three of them looked at each other and smiled, understanding what the other meant.

Su You asked Gao Zunyu: "Where is Shi Yong now?"

Gao Zunyu said: "The wall should be renovated in Qinggang Gorge."

Su You said: "Send someone to escort him to Lanzhou overnight to preside over the construction of Hun Tuo."

Gao Zunyu was still a little surprised: "But why?"

Zhang Kai smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether you are free or not when you go from Lanzhou to Yingli, but after you get to Yingli..."

Gao Zunyu also suddenly realized: "Yes! It is indeed very useful!"

…

After the meeting, Yu Zanghuama secretly grabbed Li Wenzhao: "Master Hou, why can't I understand something about the Song Dynasty?"

Li Wenzhao asked: "What can't you understand?"

Yuzang Huama wondered: "If Zhongwu burned Ye Chanma and Baa's army of 50,000 with a fire, wouldn't it be a miracle? Why does Yixi Weishe look like he has caused a big disaster? Make up for it afterwards.

Isn't it obvious that you want to take credit for sending that...telegram? Why does Wu's brother still look so grateful?"

Li Wenzhao laughed and said: "This is the situation in the Song Dynasty. Winning a battle is not necessarily a credit; losing a battle is not necessarily a fault."

Yuzang Huama was dumbfounded: "What...what's the truth?"

Li Wenzhao said: "The Song Dynasty emphasized the use of culture to control military force. Military men fought in wars. If there was anything out of the ordinary, such as not obeying military orders and handling things on the fly, such as killing prisoners and surrendering in order not to hinder the march, or even using tactics that were too cruel like Xiang Zhongwu's, it would be a mistake.

He will be impeached by the civil servants of the Song Dynasty."

"It can range from being dismissed from the job to a supervisor, but from a serious point of view, someone can lose their job."

Yuzang Huama was so frightened that she shivered.

Li Wenzhao said: "But with the order of Yixi Weishe, if Zhongwu and Grandma Wang really set fire to the East Road, they would be acting under orders. If the officials want to attack afterwards, they can only attack Yixi Weishe.

"

"This is why Zhong Dalang is grateful to Yesi Weishe."

Yuzang Huama's fat face trembled: "Then... why is Yixi Weishe not afraid?"

Li Wenzhao smiled: "Because Yixi Weishe is a high-ranking civil servant. If this matter was done under the orders of a high-ranking civil servant, then we have to break up the matter."

"How to break it up?"

"Prime Minister Zhuge once burned Bowangpo, Red Cliff, and Vine Armor Soldiers. Why can't Yixi Weishe?"

"At the worst, Yixi Weishe will ask Grandma Wang to make hundreds of large loaves of bread and hold a memorial ceremony by the Jialu River. That will pretty much cover up the situation."

After Li Wenzhao finished speaking, he patted Yu Zanghuama's shoulder: "This is the weird and bizarre thing about the Song Dynasty. It can't be reasoned with. As long as you stick to the system, you won't make big mistakes. As for other flowery things... slow down

Learn slowly."

Yuzang Huama turned around and left, but Li Wenzhao grabbed him: "What do you want to do?"
