In the lobby of the Duhu Mansion, Yan Wenluan looked at the young man wearing a black embroidered gold python robe on the main seat, for some reason, he remembered that after the general put on the blue satin python robe of King Liang, he and Zhong Hongwu and Liu Yuanji couldn't help but get together and touch a few handfuls, but these old guys, except for He Zhonghu and Chen Yunchui, were still standing in the house, Zhong Hongwu was dead, and Yu Tieshan and Liu Yuanji quit the army and went home to retire.
As for the younger ones, let's just say that the six righteous sons of the general are now only half left.
Yan Wenluan, as an important boss on the hill of Zhao Changling, naturally has high hopes for Chen Zhibao, in the hearts of the old man, the best day in Beiliang is the day when Xu Fengnian sits outside the gate of Chen Zhibao's battle in Liangzhou, but unfortunately he can't see this scene in this life.
Yan Wenluan retracted his thoughts, at this time Xu Fengnian was asking Chu Lushan about the movements of the main force of the Beimang army, and Chu Lushan could not give a definite answer to this, even if the Beiliang spies and crossbowmen had suffered huge losses, Dong Zhuo's messy dispatch of soldiers and horses also made the Duhufu feel confused, this is like a master of the Celestial Phenomena Realm confronting a master of the lower realm, with an advantage but not making a move openly, and at the same time he did not play any insidious sneak attack, but first messed up on his own territory, but he was not afraid of self-chaos.
Xu Fengnian quipped: "The large-scale change of defense of hundreds of thousands of troops is not child's play, which means that an astronomical amount of food, grass and military salaries are needed to support it."
Dong Fatty, is this with us Bei Liang to show that his family is strong?"
Gu Dazu, as one of the border commanders, compared with Yan Wenluan, Chen Yunchui and He Zhonghu, the three veterans of the same rank, the relationship with the new Liang King is more pure, after all, they met outside Beiliang back then, and they were invited by Xu Fengnian, so Gu Dazu had a lot of "leeway" between his words, and at this time he echoed with a smile: "Anyway, it's not really the belongings of this king of the Southern Courtyard, and it doesn't feel distressing to squander it." ” Chu Lushan crossed his fingers on his chest, rested his two thick arms on the chair handle, squinted his eyes slightly, and his lips moved slightly, as if he was talking to himself.
Xu Fengnian looked at Gu Dazu, and before he could say anything, the number one general of the old Southern Tang Kingdom straightened his waist, straightened his clothes, and said with a clear heart: "King Liang wants to ask if he can fight abroad."
Xu Fengnian nodded, the death of the old Southern Tang Dynasty was due to the fact that all the initiative on the battlefield was given to Gu Jiantang with both hands, and the elite troops all shrank into the territory, which led to the destruction of the naval division first, and then it was even more reasonable that the defeat was like a mountain, otherwise according to Gu Dazu's strategy, Gu Jiantang would have to pay at least 200,000 more casualties when he defeated the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the more important thing is that the Southern Tang Dynasty could use this to raise a breath of anger and not be afraid of fighting to the death.
Bei Liang is known as 300,000 iron cavalry, of course, not all 300,000 border troops are cavalry, in fact, half of them are killed, but even if it is 150,000 cavalry, and the rich reserves of jaw-dropping hundreds of thousands of war horses, this is definitely where Bei Liang's confidence lies in daring to wrestle with Bei Mang.
It can be said that if Beiliang has no worries, if the imperial court has enough support, such an invincible cavalry army with impeccable equipment and combat power can take the initiative to find opportunities on the northwest border, it is very simple, the territory is relatively small compared to the Northern Liang of the Southern Dynasty, and it can attack from all sides, and in a separate battlefield, it always ensures the numerical advantage, and takes 10,000 steps back to say, even if the Beiliang cavalry is equal or even inferior to the Beimang Border Army, there is no suspense to eat the bones, Then resupply a little and move on to the next battlefield.
At present, the dilemma faced by Beiliang lies in the fact that the imperial court has made up its mind to watch the fire from the other side, not only that there is no way back in the direction of Xishu, but also that after the turmoil in Jizhou and Yuan Tingshan became a strong force in Jibei, even the right rib of Beiliang has become a hidden danger.
Gu Jiantang really can't mix sand inside Beiliang, but it's still easy to do something between the east and west lines of Liangliao and Beiliang.
Gu Dazu sold a pass, and said with a playful smile: "It's not impossible, it depends on whether Bei Liang has the courage." ” Yan Wenluan smiled and said: "General Gu mentioned something two days ago, which roughly means that it is to use the current Youzhou soldiers and horses to defend the gourd mouth, it is not difficult, the Youzhou foot soldiers are enough to be competent, so those more than 30,000 cavalry troops who are idle can sweep Jizhou and obtain greater stretch for Beiliang.
In this way, Bei Liang does not have a dead end that can only be beaten passively.
But Jizhou" When Yan Wenluan said this, he deliberately left it blank.
He Zhong ignored Chen Yunchui's eyes and the two of them staggered, and then they both looked at Xu Fengnian.
When today's son entered the summer in the first year of Xiangfu, he showed a posture that made the government and the opposition incomprehensible, even if Yang Shenxing was unfavorable, even if Yan Zhenchun's cavalry was wiped out, His Majesty the Emperor did not show too much anger, although the commander Lu Shengxiang's position was stormy, but this was not caused by the unfavorable situation of the war, but it was such a bleak situation at the beginning, and now it is a sign of more stability, among which after Yan Zhenchun died in battle, it can be said that he was extremely grieved, called Wujie, and posthumously named Jingzhong Marquis, The only son, Yan Dadan, was immediately promoted exceptionally.
Yang Shenxing was trapped and lost the face of the imperial court, but it is said that a secret letter was folded to the heavens, adding a handful of firewood for the impeachment of Zhang Julu by the Jin Lanting of the Guozi Prison, which should save the lives of the Yang family, and it may not be impossible to return to Jizhou in the future.
Compared with Guangling Road, which is full of gunsmoke and retreat, the emperor of the Zhao family obviously pays more attention to Jizhou, which is light and breezy, and many of the chapters are personally criticized by the red, and outsiders do not know the inside, Beiliang here, especially Yan Wenluan, the military bigwigs are well aware of it, and today's son is wary of Cao Changqing, a group of rebels and thieves in Western Chu who are making trouble under his nose, far inferior to the Beiliang Iron Cavalry of "Tiangao Emperor Yuan".
Xu Fengnian didn't give a direct answer, and said softly: "Chen Zhibao blocked the waist and cut off the west line of Liyang, which should be the first step of Yuanbenxi's layout of the world, and the second step is to let Jizhou approach step by step, in the past, Yang Shenxing was beyond his power in this regard, even if he wanted to balance Beiliang, as far as his tens of thousands of Jinan old pawns were concerned, he was also powerless, and the court simply let him go to Guangling Road to run into a wall, and the local forces in Jizhou were therefore drawn from the bottom of the kettle, taking advantage of this opportunity, the court needed trustworthy new people to fill in the blanks, not only to be able to convince the public, also have the courage to argue with Bei Liang, that Yuan Mad Dog's steady progress, not surprisingly it is a deal made by Yuan Benxi and Gu Jiantang, Yuan Benxi can further tie Bei Liang's hands and feet, so Gu Jiantang can be more assured of the periphery of the eastern front, and everyone is happy. ” Gu Dazu sneered: "This mad dog really wants to be on top and wants to go crazy, how can the seat of the new master of Jizhou be so easy to sit on, Beiliang really can't stop it, Jizhou is more soft persimmon than Xishu, the first one has to be beaten into a sieve by Beimang Iron Cavalry, otherwise why didn't Gu Jiantang let his son go to Jizhou Even if he Yuan Tingshan is the son-in-law of the Gu family, he can really be compared with his own son."
Chu Lushan smiled and said: "Rich and dangerous, the little people are all this virtue when they go to the gambling table, if they want to gamble, they will bet big, and they are never afraid of bankruptcy."
Speaking of which, when we fought with our father-in-law from north to south, we also put ourselves to death and then came back to life.
Yuan Tingshan is not likable, but he is definitely very interesting. ” Xu Fengnian suddenly turned his head to look at Yan Wenluan and asked, "General Yan, assuming that you only have infantry troops in Youzhou, how many Beimang troops can you block?"
Yan Wenluan said without hesitation: "A gourd mouth outside the Horse Pass can take down the Beimang army of 150,000 or 60,000, plus the pair of Honglu generals Cao Xiaojiao and Hong Xinjia, they can be attacked and defended on the border, and there is Hu Kui Huangfu in Youzhou, 300,000, and there is no problem to block the 300,000 Beimang army with Youzhou foot soldiers."
But this block, naturally, there is a time limit, but this time limit is enough for 30,000 light horsemen to rescue or attack in an emergency. ” Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "That's okay, these 30,000 light riders will enter Jizhou from now on." ” The veteran Chen Yun's eyes lit up and asked, "Don't say hello to the imperial court" Xu Fengnian asked rhetorically: "Our Beiliang is just to let two or three thousand cavalry soldiers go to Jizhou and borrow a place to practice martial arts, do you need to deliberately say hello, then it is too much to see His Majesty the Emperor, and after going to Jizhou, the court will always know one day, then it is not equivalent to saying hello, and then it is a big deal to submit a document to the Ministry of War." ” Xu Weixiong, who was sitting next to Xu Fengnian, laughed softly: "Obviously, our Beiliang is quite reasonable. ” Chen Yunchui couldn't help but smile, and He Zhonghu, who was also in a good mood, couldn't help laughing, "Lord Wang, three thousand and thirty thousand, this difference seems to be a bit big." ” He Zhong suddenly waved his hand and said: "The difference between 3,000 and 30,000 is more than 20,000, and it is not 30,000 and 300,000, whoever cares about this will care."
Besides, Lu Shangshu of the military department is still the patriarch of our prince, whether it is to help relatives or help, Tangxi Sword Immortal seems to be able to help no matter what. ” Xu Fengnian stretched out his hand and rubbed his face, and asked: "This cavalry army used to be scattered, and the generals and captains were each in their own army, and they went to Jizhou, who will lead the army, and you have a suitable candidate?"
Yan Wenluan, who is the marshal of the 160,000 infantry army in Beiliang, should not be suitable to interject, after all, this is a family matter of the cavalry, Yuan Zuozong can say, Chu Lushan can say, and even some infantry generals can speak freely, but the position of this famous general in the Spring and Autumn Period is too prominent, but he should be silent.
But Yan Wenluan still had something to say, "I have two candidates, respectively as the head and deputy commander, the head coach must use the soldiers too positively, and the deputy commander must be relatively serious, more positive than strange, so that the two complement each other, so that the steps of this cavalry army will not be too lame."
The deputy marshal can be served by Tian Heng under my command, and as for the boss, he needs to be eclectic in employing people. ” Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "The old general said. ” Yan Wenluan glanced at Chu Lushan and said, "Then you have to borrow someone from Chu Du." ” Chu Lushan glared and said: "If you don't borrow it, you won't borrow it, that kid is an indispensable and important person in the Duhu Mansion, and he is my right-hand man, I will rely on this kid to contribute in the future."
Xu Fengnian inevitably wondered a little, which amazing character could make Lu Qiu'er and Yan Wenluan both blue-eyed Yan Wenluan snorted coldly, "It's not me who borrows someone from you, it's the prince who asks you for someone."
Xu Weixiong said indifferently: "Yu Luan Dao can indeed be the commander of this cavalry army. ” Xu Fengnian suddenly realized.
Chu Lushan sighed with an expression of being cut dozens of catties of flesh in an instant.
Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "Then let's take a look at the topography map of Jizhou and discuss how these 30,000 horses should go." ” A group of people walked to the front of a few cases, and someone had already brought two maps, one was the geography of the whole territory of Jizhou, and the other was the topography map of the western part of Jizhou.
When Xu Fengnian asked people to invite Yu Luandao over, he stood in front of a few cases, looked around, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "From today on, we can do whatever we have to do in Beiliang, if the imperial court and Jizhou dare to point fingers, then directly cut off those hands and feet and then conflict with any forces outside Beiliang, there is no need to specifically inform the Qingliangshan Palace, do it first, and after you do it, the palace will help finish it." ” Yan Wenluan, Chen Yunchui, these old generals exhaled almost at the same time.
This grievance, which has been held back for nearly 20 years against the imperial court, can finally be vented in the open. “”:
