Chapter 136 Inevitable
~~~~~~~
Zhang Pan thought for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, Eunuch Wei, I predict that in the recent period, the old slave will definitely take action against the various Mongolian ministries. As long as the main force of the old slave moves westward, we and other minions can start from Liaonan Start by conquering Jinzhou first, then Fuzhou and Gaizhou, and push the front to the hinterland of Liaoning to threaten Liaoyang and Shenyang. At that time, the imperial court will show affection to the Mongolian tribes and use them to their advantage. The old slaves will be attacked from both sides. The situation on the ground will definitely be greatly alleviated.”
"Okay. Well said." The little emperor Tianqi couldn't help but clapped his hands and praised, "General Zhang is indeed the pillar of the country. If the war is like this, then I can sit back and relax."
Zhang Pan's face was also a little flushed. The emperor's appreciation made the blood in his chest and abdomen almost boil. He wished he could rush to Lushun now and start the offensive in southern Liaoning.
But Wei Zhongxian was much calmer.
After all, he is already in his early fifties and has much more experience. Although what Zhang Pan said makes sense, according to the current situation, if it is to be implemented, it will be more than a thousand difficulties.
Putting aside everything else, where did he get so many troops to counterattack Liaonan?
Even if the old slaves go westward, those guard dogs are enough to make people drink a pot.
"Haha. General Chen, General Li, and General Zhang are right. Do you two have any other ideas? Don't be afraid of making mistakes, you can say anything." Wei Zhongxian looked at Chen Zhong and Li Yuanqing with a smile.
Chen Zhong glanced at Li Yuanqing, but Li Yuanqing looked at his nose and his nose, and ignored Chen Zhong's gaze.
Chen Zhong also understood that this was not the time for communication.
But although he was a little reckless, he had climbed out of a pile of dead people along the way. Chen Zhong had experienced almost all the major battles in Mao Wenlong's headquarters. To a large extent, he was much more pragmatic than Zhang Pan.
But Zhang Pan had already spoken so passionately, Chen Zhong didn't want to tear down Zhang Pan anymore. He thought for a moment and said: "I don't have any ideas for the time being. Although Jiannu is strong, our army is not weak. As long as the emperor gives an order If you come down, I will definitely charge forward and chop off a few more Tatar heads."
Chen Zhong said it very honestly, and both the little emperor Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian laughed.
Li Yuanqing also gave Chen Zhong a slight thumbs up, saying that his eldest brother is a bit too wise and foolish.
However, Chen Zhong's words of elixir could not solve many problems. Emperor Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian looked at Li Yuanqing again.
Li Yuanqing took a deep breath. Zhang Pan was already like this. Naturally, Li Yuanqing could not dismantle him, but the core things had to be shown. Otherwise, it would not be fun to be dragged into the chariot by Zhang Pan. Already.
"Back to the Emperor, Eunuch Wei, I think what General Zhang and General Chen said is correct. However, I have just established Changsheng Island, and various affairs are under construction. I may not be able to use too many troops to reinforce this time. The War in Southern Liaoning."
Upon hearing that Li Yuanqing actually came up and declined, the little emperor Tianqi's face couldn't help but change, and he was obviously unhappy.
But Wei Zhongxian's face remained calm, and he still looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile, waiting for Li Yuanqing's next words.
Although what Zhang Pan said was high-sounding, based on Wei Zhongxian's experience, it was natural to see at a glance that Zhang Pan might not be able to achieve great things if he was strong on the outside but strong on the inside.
But Chen Zhong is very stable. Although he is not very aggressive, he should be more than capable of maintaining his integrity.
As for Li Yuanqing, Wei Zhongxian was also a little confused. Call him stupid, but he is also quite smart. Call him smart, but he actually dared to silence the emperor.
Wei Zhongxian was a little confused about Li Yuanqing's temper for a while.
Zhang Pan was stunned when he heard Li Yuanqing's words. He really didn't expect that at this time, in front of the emperor, Li Yuanqing still disagreed with his Liaonan strategy.
But this was not the past after all. The two already had a good friendship. Zhang Pan's Liaonan strategy also needed Li Yuanqing's support. Seeing that the emperor's face was not good-looking, Zhang Pan was also worried about Li Yuanqing and hurriedly used Li Yuanqing's support.
He winked.
Li Yuanqing, however, took his time and secretly observed the expressions of the little emperor Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian.
The mood of the little emperor of Tianqi was shown on his face, but Wei Zhongxian was scheming and unpredictable. However, Li Yuanqing noticed that there was a bright color in Wei Zhongxian's eyes, as if he wanted to encourage him to continue talking.
"General Li, according to your opinion, you are not going to contribute to this Liaonan strategy?" The little emperor Tianqi looked at Li Yuanqing with a cold face.
Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "When I return to the emperor, I don't dare to humble myself. As long as the emperor gives the order, I will go through fire and water, have a sword on my neck, an ax on my body, and there will be no complaints."
"Then why did you refuse just now?" Emperor Tianqi's expression softened slightly, but he was still unhappy.
Li Yuanqing said: "Your Majesty, I did not refuse. I just reported the current situation of the headquarters to the emperor truthfully."
The little emperor Tianqi frowned, he didn't expect Li Yuanqing to be so difficult to deal with. After all, he had a childish temperament and couldn't help but want to be more serious.
But Wei Zhongxian saw clearly that Li Yuanqing was very organized. Although he did not confront Zhang Pan directly, his meaning and attitude were already clear. He did not agree with Zhang Pan's Liaonan offensive.
To some extent, Wei Zhongxian also disagreed with Zhang Pan's words.
As the eunuch Bingbi, the Superintendent of Ceremonies, he was deeply familiar with the affairs of the Liao Territory, so he naturally understood deeply that what Zhang Pan said sounded nice, but in practice, it would be more than a thousand difficulties to make a single move affect the whole body?
Although Li Yuanqing's words didn't sound good, he was pragmatic in every aspect, which made Wei Zhongxian also very interested.
He comes from a poor and low-income family. To put it bluntly, even in his current status, Wei Zhongxian still has a strong sense of small farming. Without him, he was afraid of poverty when he was young. Even if he is now developed, in many cases,
He also wanted to leave a way out for himself.
Wei Zhongxian looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile, and before the little emperor Tianqi spoke, he said: "General Li, according to what you said, the Zajia family would also like to hear, do you have any good ideas for defeating Jiannu?"
At this time, Li Yuanqing basically understood Wei Zhongxian's attitude. He knew that Old Wei wanted to hear something real. He thought for a moment, collected his thoughts, and then said: "Back to the emperor, Eunuch Wei, to be honest, I don't have a good way to defeat the enemy now."
Lao Nu has developed to this day and has become very powerful. Bei Zhi has personally fought against Jian Nu several times. To put it bluntly, Bei Zhi has a thousand people under his command. In many cases, he may not be able to defeat Jian Nu with 300 people. The main thing is that
Jiannu's men are all cavalry, and the soldiers are brave, but Beizhi's side is full of new soldiers, and their armor is incomplete. On land, Beizhi really dare not fight them hard, and can only rely on the power of the sea and rivers to fight with skillfully.
They circle around."
At this time, the little emperor of Tianqi also understood what Li Yuanqing meant. Although he was young, he was the king of a country after all. After he calmed down after being angry, he also found that what Li Yuanqing said made more sense, but he still asked unwillingly.
"General Li, is Jiannu really so brave? You have a thousand men, but you can't defeat three hundred of them?"
Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is just a hypothetical. Suppose that in a sudden situation, we encounter a slave. If we are well prepared, we are not necessarily afraid of slaves. But if it is a field battle, our headquarters will definitely suffer some losses.
"
The little emperor of Tianqi nodded slowly. Through Li Yuanqing's words, he already understood that although Zhang Pan's plan sounded good, it did have many loopholes, and he couldn't help but fell silent for a moment.
Zhang Pan looked at Li Yuanqing, his expression gradually becoming complicated.
Chen Zhong also shook his head slightly. They were all brothers, and now he was caught in the middle. It was really a dilemma. But if Zhang Pan wanted it to be true, the little foundation the three parties had managed to accumulate would be in vain.
Wei Zhongxian also understood at this time that Li Yuanqing was available.
After a moment of pause, Wei Zhongxian said: "General Li, the Zajia would like to hear your thoughts. How do you plan to confront Jiannu in the coming days?"
Li Yuanqing didn't want to undermine Zhang Pan, but when it came to this, Old Wei spoke, and Li Yuanqing had no choice but to bite the bullet. After calming down for a moment, Li Yuanqing said slowly: "Go back to Eunuch Wei, and pass this Sancha River crossing.
In the battle with Jiannu, I also gained some experience. Jiannu is strong, and it would be unwise to challenge him. The main reason is that our troops are too weak, and it is difficult to compete with Jiannu in the front. But the Liao land is so big, and Jiannu people
There are so few, so our unit actually still has many opportunities. This time, if the old slave wants to go to the west, I think that I can do it again like before in the hinterland of the Sancha River. Even if I can't conquer the city, I still have to kill a few more people.
The Tatars put all the old and weak women and children of the Tatars in danger. As a result, the main force of old slaves will not be able to live comfortably when they confront the Mongols."
Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but nodded slowly.
What Li Yuanqing said is from the most pragmatic and practical perspective in all aspects. After all, Li Yuanqing is only on defense now.
After the imperial court awarded the reward, it was just a guerrilla attack.
What he said was completely based on his duty, without any covetousness, and it was also the most feasible way.
When things came to this, Wei Zhongxian also understood that Li Yuanqing's department should be the biggest contributor to Sanchahe's success this time.
As for Zhang Pan...
Wei Zhongxian glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze, and with a mere garrison rank, he made arrogant remarks about important military and national affairs, confusing the Holy Spirit...
The little emperor Tianqi also slowly calmed down at this time.
After all, it is difficult to eat a big fat man in one bite.
He stared at Li Yuanqing's hard face carefully, trying to find any flaws in Li Yuanqing's face. Unfortunately, Li Yuanqing's face was as gloomy as water, neither humble nor arrogant, so he had no way of starting.
Li Yuanqing also sighed deeply in his heart.
The three parts were originally from the same root and connected with the same spirit, but Zhang Pan's irrational thoughts created a big problem for the three parts.
To a certain extent, if it is really necessary, Li Yuanqing can accept giving up the Zhang Pan Department, but he cannot give up the Chen Zhong Department. In this case, he can only bite the bullet and come. Even if the brothers part ways, he must ensure that the headquarters and the Chen Zhong Department remain in harmony.
On the right route.
In this way, the three parts of southern Liaoning can still leave some seeds, otherwise...
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said, "The three generals just arrived in the capital today. They haven't had time to have a good rest, right? Your Majesty is also tired, so you three should leave."
The three of them looked at each other with different expressions, kowtowed respectfully, and left.
Watching the three people leave, the little emperor Tianqi asked Wei Zhongxian unwillingly: "Whose statement do you believe more, Daban, Zhang Pan, and Li Yuanqing?"
Wei Zhongxian smiled lightly, "Your Majesty, don't you already have the answer in your mind? Why do you need to ask this slave?"
The little Emperor Tianqi sighed deeply, and deep in his heart he couldn't help shouting, 'Can't the situation in Liao Di really be ended quickly?'
