Zhao Xu asked: "What's wrong?"

"Too conservative." Zhang Kai took the baton: "In addition to the Luanhe Front Army taking Luanhe, Jingzhou, and Jizhou according to normal operations, Situ continued to implement a large roundabout encirclement of Xijin Prefecture, but ordered the east and west fronts to The army will clear the way back and secure the food route at the same time, so there is no need to rush to attack."

Zhang Dun was immediately worried: "What is Su You going to do? Why didn't he fight all the way? Is he supporting the bandits and letting the enemy go? Isn't he afraid of being impeached?!"

Colander looked at the various changes on the map, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: "Based on the upper, middle, and lower strategies of the Liao people, Bachelor Zhang estimated our army's next action plan just now..."

"What if we don't think about time and results, but think about politics?"

Zhang Dun couldn't help but be anxious: "What do you mean, colander?"

Colander was speechless, how could he call someone by his nickname on such an occasion, but now was not the time to talk about it, so he took the baton from Zhang Kai.

"If Yelv Chun and He Lu are allowed to join forces and then drive them into Zhongjing Road, will our army have completed the task of conquering all the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun?"

"What if our army stops here and then focuses on deploying defenses on the Tianling, Longmen, Luoshan, Jing, and Ping lines and no longer attacks?"

Damn it! Zhang Kai reacted first: "In this case, Zhongjing Road will definitely become a battlefield for Western Liao and Northern Liao to compete for!"

"If Yelu Chun wants to gain a foothold, he must seize the Zhongjing Road as his territory; and if the Bei Liao cannot gain access to the Zhongjing Road, all their previous achievements, such as selling off profits, moving, building Juehua Island, and building Changdao, will all turn into running water. .”

"As long as our army stops at Youyun, the Zhongjing Road will become a battleground between the two tigers."

"Situ is going to counter Xiao Fengxian's plan and truly drive the tiger away and devour the wolf!"

"Ah? Hahahaha..." Zhang Dun suddenly felt that most of his illness was cured. Su Xiaogou's move was too damaging. He kept claiming to fight against the rebellion for the Liao Kingdom, which made me believe his evil deeds. In the end, he only accepted The land will not accept its people!

Especially since the fighting in Zhongjing Road is already going on lively now, when Yeludun's army enters the country, Empress Dowager Xiao and Xiao Fengxian will definitely be nervous.

Even if both parties know the truth of the conflict, they still have obvious interests to fight for.

Su You's move was of course an attempt to manipulate the enemy, but it was the enemy of Northern Liao that he manipulated!

The Song Dynasty has done its best and achieved brilliant results. However, the enemy is too powerful and there is nothing that can be done to defeat the enemy!

Zhang Dun had already guessed what Su You was going to do next, asking for credit from the generals and asking for blame for himself. When had Xiao Gou not been like this after a great victory?!

Zhao Xu finally understood. Everyone looked at recovering Youyun and annihilating Yelu Chun as one thing, but Situ looked at it as two different things.

He couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that the commander-in-chief on the front line has already made his decision. Don't send another command in the capital to interfere with the front line. Situ's work is still safe."

Zhang Dun asked: "Did Situ say what to do with the surrendered troops of Pharmacist Guo? The resentful troops are with the Liao people, but they surrendered and rebelled."

Zhang Kai said: "The two states of Luanping and Ping are under the control of our Luanhe army. Guo Yaoshi persuaded Yingzhou to stay and guard Yang Keshi, and Yuguan guarded Xiao Fengchen to surrender. It can be regarded as a great achievement."

"The generals of the Luanping Resentment Army, as well as Zhang Linghui, Liu Shunren, Zhen Wuchen, Zhao Heshou, and Situ asked the court to grant them the duties of observation and propaganda. Now, they are responsible for guarding the waterways, taking care of the food and crops, and maintaining public order. They are not of great use. "

"In the follow-up, the generals can be sent to Beijing to meet with His Majesty, enter the Political Science Department of the Military Academy for further studies, and then be awarded military positions after graduation."

"As for the uncertainty of rebellion, the main reason is the lack of food and clothing. Our army has supervisors and military police for propaganda and education. They have a strong grasp on the lower-level officers. Even if the general has different intentions, the sergeants will not follow him."

"In addition to Guo Yaoshi, there are actually Xiao Guli, Wang He and several surrendered generals and prefects. Situ means that compared with his official position in Liao Kingdom, the appointment is slightly more than half a rank."

"There is another problem. Now that the roads in the Liao Kingdom are in chaos, many residents along the border will flock to the Song Dynasty to take refuge. The Song Dynasty should properly resettle them."

"There are also the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun that are now mixed with Han and Tibetan people. The generals in the prefectures and counties they have collected should treat the people of all ethnic groups equally and apply the law fairly. These must be inspected and corrected by the supervisory army, and there must be no harm to the Tibetan people.

occur."

Zhao Xu nodded in agreement and asked Zhang Kai: "In this case, regardless of Yelu Chun and his son, You Yun can be restored, right?"

Zhang Kai said with a smile: "Youyun is the final result of the battle. As for whether Yelu Chun and his son live or die, it depends on how they choose to fight."

"It's just like how Yelu Yanxi died at the hands of Jinshan barbarians after we worked so hard to arrange it, but isn't there nothing we can do about it?"

There was a burst of laughter in the military aircraft department. Yes, there are many surprises in the battle formation.

…

There are many surprises on the battlefield. The two words Su You hates most about war are "accidents".

Therefore, Fan Longshan's actions, even if it objectively caused the Taihang Natural Barrier in the north of Baozhou to change hands, allowed Su Lie to advance into Zijingguan, posing a serious threat to Feihu and Lingqiu Natural Barriers from the flanks, causing them to lose their strategic role and gaining huge gains for the Song Army.

Because of his strategic advantage, Su You also insisted on punishing him.

However, Fan Longshan was about to retire, and he had no skin and no face. If the witch wanted to punish him, he could punish him. He also shamelessly claimed to Tian Shouzhong that what he did was called "a good beginning and a good end."

But no, when I met the great witch for the first time, I was punished by wearing shackles and kneeling down. In my last battle, I was given a hundred sticks by Quan. I was punished for my crime and made meritorious deeds. As long as my subordinates were not deprived of their merits, I could not take this punishment seriously!

On the other hand, Zhongjie and Chaogu's move to leave Su You with enough backup was quite a lesson. Wouldn't the reserve team come in handy?

All parties were vying for the lead, and progress was rapid. Su You strictly ordered all parties to take care of the way back, and the two of them believed that there was nothing wrong.

In the Song Dynasty's hundreds of years of foreign wars, almost all of them were lost due to lack of food, and the lessons were laid out in blood and tears.

Zhong Ji is also quietly observing the successor. He and Chaogu are both old. After this battle, it is time to retire and retire.

Among all the generals, the one he looked up to the most was none other than Wang Wenyu, who had been staying at the commander's residence, silent and hardworking without complaint.

Down below, Cao Nan, Li Chunyuan and the others are still young. It will take some time before they can climb to the military aircraft and the Privy Council.

The veteran players in the middle, such as Fan Longshan, Tian Shouzhong, and Yao Si, are all unreliable guys. They may be too popular as generals, but they are not qualified to be handsome.

There are only two people who can enter the exegesis eye, one is Su Lie who is currently guarding Zijingguan, and the other is Wang Wenyu.

However, Su Lie was a tactical genius. He mostly relied on his natural talent to fight. He did not have enough education and study, and he also lacked an overall view and a strategic perspective. Even if he was trained in a military academy, it was still slightly insufficient.

Wang Wenyu is much better.

Wang Wenyu was guarding Lanzhou. At that time, Li Xian had led his troops to attack. Qingyi Jie Guizhang and others were scattered to graze, but suddenly a group of more than ten thousand Xia people came to attack.

At that time, there were only more than a thousand old troops in the city, and the prefect Li Hao closed the city and refused to defend it. Wang Wenyu took the initiative to request to leave the city to meet the enemy.

Li Hao thought it was inappropriate: "There are less than a few hundred cavalry in the city, how can we go out to fight?"

Wang Wenyu replied: "Since there are so many thieves and we are so few, we should reduce their sharpness to calm the people, and then the city can be defended. This is Zhang Liao's strategy for defending Hefei."

"Otherwise, we don't know what kind of changes the Qing and Tang tribes in the mountains around the city will make."

General Yan Renwu said: "We are ordered to defend the city, and Shaobao will not let us easily go to war. If anyone insists on turning the switch on and off, he will be impeached."

Wang Wenyu made an impassioned speech: "If we go out to fight in the city today, we are going to fight with one against a thousand, and we will almost die. How can we be afraid of impeachment? Besides, we cannot be sure of holding the city, so there is still an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Li Hao was eventually told by Wang Wenyu.

Wang Wenyu then recruited 700 people as a suicide squad, lowered the city at night, and broke into the enemy camp with short knives.

The Xia people didn't know what was going on. They dispersed in fear and scrambled to cross the river. Many people died.

When Su You received the good news, he couldn't help but sigh: "Wen Yu, today's respect for virtue."

The county inspector Su You picked up on the Lychee Road was famous for his excellent archery skills in the Western Army. After growing up along the way, he has now become a general.

He has experienced many military adventures in his life, but when looking closely at each adventure, he made a decision only after extremely calm analysis.

Now that the Song Dynasty's soldiers were well-fed, Wang Wenyu no longer had to perform all kinds of legends of defeating the many with the few and defeating the strong with the weak as he did in the early years. Instead, he became "ordinary".

However, because he did not allow his stepson to change his surname so that he could continue the legacy of his comrades, he and his son entered the military academy for further studies and became generals of the same level together. After creating a legend of father and son being classmates and fighting side by side, Wang Wenyu became a virtuous military minister in the Song Dynasty.

A well-rounded representative.

Zhong Ji saw Wang Wenyu's valuable qualities, which were that he never bargained and resolutely carried out orders. When faced with a desperate situation, he did not lose his opportunity and dared to take risks decisively.

This kind of person is not only the best soldier, but also a rare handsome minister.

Of course, Wang Wenyu cannot be compared with strategic geniuses like Wang Shao, Zhang Kai, and Li Kui, but today's Song Dynasty has passed the period when geniuses were needed to support the situation.
