At the spring equinox of the second year of Xiangfu, if the intensifying northwest war is still unattended, then the Guangling Road, which was originally in a good situation, suddenly took a sharp turn, which made Liyang Capital very worried, all of which stemmed from the young man of Xie Xichen's "turning decay into magic", after the soldiers of the eastern line of Guangling were accustomed to the elusive transfer of troops by Kou Jianghuai, the main general Song Li slowly advanced step by step, constantly compressing the room for the Western Chu army, not only recaptured all the lost territory, but also successfully rebelled against several Western Chu captains who rebelled at that timeAt that time, there were not only 30,000 Guangling Road foot soldiers in Song Li's army, but also 8,000 good war elite cavalry as a mobile force, plus Song Li's always used soldiers steadily, no matter how you look at it, it is a situation of sure victory, the only question is to see if you can attack the old capital of Western Chu before the beginning of Xia.
But it was at this moment when the results of the battle were within reach, that Xie Xichen, who was inferior in troops, suddenly began to exert his strength and took the initiative to attack in formation.
Afterwards, it was rumored that the Song Li's cavalry army was exhausted, and wanted to "thin its formation" with thousands of cavalry, with the grassland nomadic cavalry being the most adept, the eight thousand cavalry was divided into three shares, and each was divided into five horizontal teams, the rangers were in front of the fine cavalry in the rear, and the elite cavalry quickly passed through the gap behind the enemy to charge forward, and launched a projectile, and then in the case of keeping the battle line neat, the fine cavalry retreated, and the light cavalry retreated in turn, so as to repeat, trying to give full play to the greatest advantage of cavalry and archery, and when the enemy formation was in chaos, it could be attacked and fought like a chisel.
But Xie Xichen only with 5,000 strength and heavy armor foot soldiers, holding the sword of Zhang Yu Mo in a horizontal dense formation in front, regardless of the arrows, like a wall, when the depth of the Guangling cavalry had to launch a real charge, against these like the West Chu halberd warriors reappear in the light of day heavy armor foot soldiers, it was actually the six words that made the officials of the Tai'an City Military Department look at each other, "the men and horses should be shattered" and then the remnants of the cavalry army that could not be formed can only go around the battlefield by the two wings of their own Chinese army foot soldiers, and then there is a more tragic infantry battle, Although the morale of the Guangling infantry at the bottom of the valley did not retreat, but it was still difficult to stop the advance of Western Chu, the main general Song Li did not hesitate to fall into battle in person, leading eight hundred dead soldiers to break through the Western Chu Mo knife formation in one fell swoop, even so, in the next battle, before the war by the Liyang Imperial Court laughingly called "a good woman is difficult to cook without rice" Xie Xichen, repeatedly mobilized the living forces that did not move into the battlefield, the number of people was less than 1,000 people, but all of them accurately remedied several crises.
Song Li was by no means a mediocre general, fought bloodily, and twice led his troops to rush to the front of Xie Xi's formation less than 100 steps, and was repelled by random arrows.
After that, Xie Xichen used thousands of cavalry troops in ambush in the rear to charge the battle, Song Li also had a response to this, even if the battle was stalemate, it was still strictly ordered that the cavalry with heavy losses should not "enter the battle formation" to fully support their own side, and only allowed the cavalry captain to lead five hundred cavalry to kill the enemy in turn, so that the Guangling cavalry and the infantry army would not be defeated in a battle under the charge of the three thousand Western Chu cavalry.
The 20,000 infantry soldiers under Xie Xichen suffered as many as 15,000 casualties, and when Song Li's 40,000 infantry and 8,000 cavalry finally withdrew from the battlefield, they still had less than 5,000 combat strength.
But the truth that really sent chills down the spine of the soldiers on both sides was that more than ten miles away from Song Li's initiative to withdraw from the battlefield, Xie Xichen dispatched 3,000 light cavalry full of spirit as if they had fallen from the sky, and what blocked the pace of this cavalry army to expand the results of the pursuit was the 5,000 ambush soldiers that Song Li also wanted to use to win by surprise.
At the great court meeting after the 800-mile expedited concert arrived in the capital, the Liyang court impeached Song Li, saying that he was stupid in his use of troops, and he had a great advantage but sat in a solid situation.
Emperor Long Yan was furious and ordered Song Li to go to Beijing to plead guilty.
But at the small court meeting where only the central and important ministers met, Zhao Zhen, the son of heaven, took the lead in praising Song Li, saying that he was not in the Guangling Army, let alone Song Li.
Zhao Youling, the second-in-command of Zhongshu Province, even said frankly that although Song Li's person made the Guangling battle situation more erosive, because before Lu Shengxiang entered the country, Guangling Dao had no strength to fight on land for the time being, and could only hope for the naval army of Zhao Yi, the king of Guangling, but after all, he tested the depth of the Western Chu army only at the cost of a small loss.
At that time, the Spring and Autumn veteran Yang Shenxing happened to be among the small court meetings, and immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, crying silently, but did not excuse himself, but said that Yan Zhenchun's death was guilty of his Yang Shenxing and Jizhou veterans.
Emperor Zhao Zhen did not pursue it, but comforted the old general who had lost the face of the imperial court, and even let his eldest son Yang Huchen, who lost an arm in the Guangling War, serve as the deputy general of Jizhou, and led the army of Jinan Hundred Battles who had not been out of trouble for a long time to rush to Jibei to make up for his father's achievements.
After the spring equinox, 100,000 strong troops in southern Xinjiang had reached Xiangzhou, and Zhao Bing, the king of Yan, was seriously ill halfway and had to be led by Zhao Zhu, the son of the world.
At the same time, Lu Shengxiang, the general of Huyi, and the meritorious veteran of the same generation as Yang Shenxing and Yan Zhenchun went together, with a total of 40,000 elites.
Echoing with the Southern Xinjiang Army, it flanked the Western Chu rebels.
Prior to this, the Liyang Imperial Court seemed to have suffered a huge loss of nearly 90,000 casualties and the death of a vassal king, creating the prestige of Xie Xichen and Kou Jianghuai, two young people from Western Chu.
At this moment, Xishu made a sound, which can be said to shake the world.
After Xu Xiao, another king with a different surname, Chen Zhibao, wrote to the capital, saying that he had more than 10,000 soldiers and could go out of Xishu to aid Guangling at any time.
Although it was rejected by the Ministry of War.
But the government and the opposition were still shaken by it, and praised it as "happy to hear the spring thunder", which shows the transcendent status of the white-clothed soldier saint in the minds of the Liyang people.
It seems that in Liyang's view, those talented writers who "defected" from Beiliang, not to mention Chen Zhibao, who has always had a high voice, Yao Baifeng, the master of science, Yan Jiexi, a relative of the emperor, and now Jin Lanting, who is a servant of the Ministry of Rites, will make Tai'an City look at it comfortably and pleasing to the eye.
In the Northern Liang Metropolitan Protectorate, a group of Liangzhou border generals led by Xu Fengnian and Chu Lushan were facing a makeshift sand table, discussing the gains and losses of Xie Xichen and Song Li.
This may be the only pastime of the Beiliang generals during the war.
Huaiyang Guan Lieutenant Huang Laifu was quite disdainful in his words, "This Xie family's method of using troops has not been learned from us, in the area where the battle lines of the two sides are not enough to be completely rolled out, secretly accumulate strength, and put it into the battlefield in batches at a critical moment.
The only thing he can get his hands on is the Mo Dao Formation that he didn't know where to train, but it's okay to deal with the Guangling cavalry, and against our iron cavalry, hehe, that is, the fate of the Western Chu Euphorbia back then. ” Xu Fengnian said: "After all, this is the first time since the Spring and Autumn Period that we have won the battle with steps, no matter how powerful Song Li's cavalry is, we should find out."
Is there a detailed arrangement of the Mo Dao Array" Chu Lushan, as always, looked at the geographical details on the sand table obsessively, and after hearing this, he raised his head and replied with a smile: "I'm still waiting for the news of the water room, but it is estimated that the two sides have roughly lost battle, and Xie Xichen's Mo Dao Formation should be much more complete than the Euphorbia Battle Formation back then."
I believe that Gu Jiantang's Liangliao side will soon be promoted, and he will have to ask for a large amount of military salary from the lion of the household. ” The sturdy lieutenant of Qingyuan Military Town frowned and said, "As far as the spy report is concerned, Xie Xichen and Song Li are not the same tendons, they are both ghostly, and they are very cautious and bold in the use of their respective riding steps.
In the past, I only heard that Xichu Nakou Jianghuai was good at long-distance raids at the expense of foot strength, even if the overall strength was less than the enemy, it could also be formed on the local battlefield to fight more and fight less, and never defended the city or attacked the city, and it seemed that the foot pawn could be used as a cavalry army, which was very chewy. ” Chu Lushan said with a smile: "Kou Jianghuai is using a series of dazzling victories to tell the people of the world, how to fight in the Central Plains in the future, it is no longer as simple as you attacking the city and I defending the city, all battles are aimed at destroying the enemy's living forces, you retreat into the city, I will change the way to force you out of the city to fight, if you have a large number of troops out of the city, I can not fight first, find the right opportunity to have a sure victory, and beat you again."
Anyway, it's a quick knife to cut meat, two or three catties at a time, and if you have more times, you will see bones.
If it is said that Gu Dazu first proposed to fight outside the door, which was enough to open the eyes of later generations of soldiers, then Kou Jianghuai's unique and novel way of playing is a perfect extension, which can probably be called fighting outside the city, weakening the meaning of the city to the greatest extent, and if you use it well, you can take the initiative everywhere.
Of course, I was fighting in the hinterland of Beimang at that time, and I had been playing like this for a long time, but the spearhead was not aimed at Liyang, and those officials and masters in the court didn't know that the flesh hurts. ” General Liu Ya rubbed his chin and said: "Guangling Dao finally has a general like Song Li, who understands military affairs, to support the field, and the Liyang Emperor's brain was kicked by a donkey, so he took it directly to Tai'an City to ask for guilt, and it was clear that Zhao Yi's sailor would also eat it for Cao Changqing." ” Xu Fengnian shook his head and said softly: "Just as far as the pure Guangling war is concerned, Song Li should not be moved.
But from the overall point of view, the seemingly self-destructive approach of the imperial court is actually in the same vein.
At that time, the Eight Kingdoms of the Spring and Autumn Period were destroyed and the generals were divided, and now the Zhao family has to collect the military power of the world, so as to deal with the situation of the all-out war with Beimang in the future.
Yang Shenxing and Yan Zhenchun's counterinsurgency with their private army is one side of the matter, while Tangxi Sword Immortal Lu Baijie, Southern Expedition Commander Lu Shengxiang, Long Xiang General Xu Gong, Liaoxi General Tang Tieshuang, and the current Song Li, these people have entered Beijing as officials one after another, which is a relatively hidden side.
The imperial court intends to connive at the restoration of Western Chu, except that he didn't expect that Western Chu would give them such a big dismount at the beginning, other things are expected to happen step by step, and even now that King Yan sent 100,000 soldiers and horses to the north to support, it was also arranged a long time ago, don't look at Xie Xichen emptied the land battlefield of Guangling Road in one go, in fact, it was just to help the imperial court let Zhao Bing, the king of Yan, die more people.
In the final analysis, the imperial court used this to reduce the feudal domain and suppress the power of local military generals, which can be regarded as a yang conspiracy. ” After the Liu Ya rider scolded the two emperors of the Zhao family for not being good birds, he immediately smiled at Xu Fengnian and said: "The prince looks at the problem, and it is really different from us old men, it is a high house, what is the high house?"
Huang Laifu hurriedly said: "If you build a high house, I forgot about it." ” Chu Lushan rubbed his forehead, a little embarrassed.
Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "It's strategic. ” The two lieutenants said in unison: "Yes, from a high position" Then they each praised it, "The prince is only eight buckets" and "The prince has to get this knowledge" The eyes of our Beiliang Duhu seem to be a little melancholy.
Xu Fengnian quipped: "Okay, this kind of technical work is not suitable for you."
You still honestly lead the troops to fight, and if you win a big battle in the future, I have no problem patting your ass. ” The room burst into laughter.
After Xu Fengnian returned to Liangbei Shaping to discuss the arrangement with the generals in Chu Lushan, the two walked to Chu Lushan's residence, and after Xu Fengnian walked into the cramped courtyard, he sighed with emotion: "It's really difficult for you." ” Chu Lushan habitually bent over and smiled: "Don't look at Luqiu'er who has lived a life of luxury over the years, when he was poor and crazy, it would be happy to have a hot steamed bun to eat."
Later, he entered the Xu Jiajun, and this fat body was raised little by little, and the prince may not believe it, Lu Qiuer once did not say that he was skinny, and his whole body was added together, that is, more than one hundred and twenty catties of meat, but at that time, the meat was firm and hard. ” Xu Fengnian really didn't know about this stubble, and looked at the bloated Luqiu'er, "I can't imagine what you look like when you're thin." ” Chu Lushan sighed, "Who said it wasn't, even I almost forgot about it." ” Xu Fengnian specially brought the two cans of chess pieces today, and Chu Lushan asked people to find a pair of well-made chessboards, and the two sat opposite each other after a long absence, Xu Fengnian held white, Chu Lushan held black, and began to play.
Xu Fengnian lost.

Chu Lushan finally won.
Because Chu Lushan has waited for so many years, he finally can sit cross-legged on a wide embroidered pier without deliberately letting the chess, Chu Lushan looked at the chess game in a daze, and said with some embarrassment: "Today I know the true depth of His Royal Highness's chess power."
It turned out that Lu Qiu'er was releasing water back then, and His Royal Highness the Prince had never paid attention. ” Hearing the somewhat unfamiliar title of "His Royal Highness the Prince", Xu Fengnian lost his mind for a moment, sighed, and said: "I asked people to go to Qingzhou to find that Lu Xu, but the result was disappointing, Lu Xu brought me a message, saying that he would rather go to the capital than come to Beiliang." ” Chu Lushan grinned and said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't ask for it." ” Xu Fengnian snorted, and said helplessly: "I heard that Xu Xiao has also caught many Spring and Autumn literati before, but most of the characters he likes are unwilling to serve under his command, so they can only let go." ” Chu Lushan's smile was a little embarrassed, and he said softly: "My father-in-law let him go, but many people secretly slaughtered Luqiu'er afterwards."
Among them is Yuan Baixiong, a close friend of the elders. ” Xu Fengnian couldn't cry or laugh, "No wonder Second Brother Yuan said to ask for your sky lantern" Chu Lushan smiled, "Unlike Mr.
Zhao, I am from the same poor background as Mr.
Li, and I am born to deal with the world's figures, and I don't have Mr.
Li's elegance.
Looking back now, I should have been softer and killed a few less. ” Xu Fengnian was speechless.
Chu Lushan twisted a slightly cool chess piece with his fingers, and said: "Aside from the courtiers in the spring of Yonghui, Tangxi Sword Immortal Lu Baijie, Zhongshu Ling Qi Yanglong, Guozi Jian Zuo Sacrificial Wine Yao Baifeng, Dongyuan Pavilion University Scholar Yan Jiexi, Southern Expedition Commander Lu Shengxiang, Long Xiang General Xu Gong, etc., these people are Zhao Dian who helped his son invite him to the capital to fill the vacancy after the collapse of Zhang Lu, as for Song Kaili and others, they were deliberately suppressed by Zhao Dian when he was alive, so that the next emperor could show his grace.
Then Tang Tieshuang, the squire of the military department, Fan Changhou, the new chess saint, Song Li of Guangling Dao, Chen Wang, Shaobao, Yuan Tingshan, Sun Yin, Lu Xu, the general of Jizhou, these people are the newcomers cultivated by the new monarch Zhao Zhen himself. ” Chu Lushan sneered: "Except for being very unreasonable to our Bei Liang's every move, the rest of the first moves are all in line with orthodox chess theory." ” Xu Fengnian said with emotion: "Zhao Dan's choice of Zhao Zhang, the fourth prince, instead of the eldest prince Zhao Wu to succeed him, must have been carefully considered, and we can't deny this.
So far, Zhao Zhen has done a good job. ” Chu Lushan suddenly looked at Xu Fengnian with a playful look.
Xu Fengnian rolled his eyes and said, "Don't think about it, I have nothing to do with that queen."
You are blind to the Zhao family's royal family, and you don't know that Yan Dongwu and Li Chengzhen have a virtue, both of them ignored me at the beginning, in fact, to be precise, they regarded them as enemies. ” Chu Lushan said with a hippie smile: "Luqiu'er is thinking about what is good." ” Xu Fengnian scolded with a smile: "Do you really think that all women in the world should like me?"
Chu Lushan put down the chess piece, stretched out his hands, and said with a natural face: "Lord Wang, you don't know, now everyone in the Central Plains is a little well-informed, and they love Lord Wang, your little lady, there are not 10,000, but 8,000" Chu Lushan said leisurely: "This is also a helpless thing, the world's rivers and lakes have been around for a hundred years, and there may be a lot of martial arts, but they still have to grow into a jade tree in the wind, and they are more romantic, but there are very few, counting and counting, there is only the old sword god Li Chungang, and Wang Xianzhi is a bad old man."
Tuoba Bodhisattva North Barbarian one.
Mrs.
Deng, the swordsmanship is true, but it's a pity that the appearance can't pass the level.
Originally, Qi Xuanjiao and Cao Changqing could each be counted as one, but one was a Taoist immortal who never entered the world, and the other was a nerd who only thought about recovering the country, so only the prince lived up to expectations, walked through two trips to Liyang Jianghu, countless anecdotes and interesting stories, and also went to Tai'an City, and was the dignified King of Beiliang, and also killed Wang Xianzhi, and there are countless rare calligraphy and paintings that you identified as fakes in the capital and Jiangnan, and at the same time there is the strong rise of Daxueping and Xuanyuan Qingfeng, which is equivalent to building momentum for the prince who has been to Huishan in disguise.
How can those little ladies not be crazy about it, it's really a long drought and a rainy day."
Xu Fengnian really didn't know that this kind of result would occur, and laughed at himself: "In this way, there will definitely be more people who hate us Beiliang in the future."
Chu Lushan laughed heartily, "Of course, this is far away, let's take those mothers-in-law and aunts in Rouge County who are not worried about getting married, as long as there is a matchmaker who says which man looks a little similar to you, the market will suddenly become tight."
Xu Fengnian could only laugh at it.
After a moment of silence, the atmosphere in the room seemed to change.
Chu Lushan suddenly asked: "Lord Wang, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not."
Xu Fengnian said: "You can ask, but you may not answer." ” For Lu Qiu'er to ask so solemnly, it was not that Xu Fengnian wanted to play tricks, but that he was really not sure to give an answer.
Sure enough, Chu Lushan asked a very tricky question, "After the prince went to Beimang, especially after returning to Beiliang with Xu Huainan's head, Lu Qiu'er knew that the battle with Beimang would be different from what everyone imagined."
Then, Chu Lushan must ask the prince today, if one day, the choice exactly the same as that of his father-in-law back then is placed in front of the prince, how will he choose?"
Xu Fengnian wanted to speak and stopped, Chu Lushan stared at him, and quickly said: "The prince knows a little bit, the person who will sit on the dragon chair of the Zhao family at that time may not necessarily be Zhao Zhu, but may be the Zhao Zhu who used to be in Dantong Pass with the prince."
Xu Fengnian did not speak, but asked Chu Lushan to continue: "If there is really that time, the same choice, but it is no longer the same world pattern.
Compared to the Xu family, which had no chance of winning, there is no doubt that in the future, the Xu family and the Zhao family, we will be the most unfortunate will be the general trend of winning and losing, in our hands" The game between the two is dead.
Xu Fengnian took a deep breath and said bitterly: "Lu Qiu'er, I disappointed you." ” Chu Lushan slowly lowered his head.
Xu Fengnian also bowed his head and was silent, looking at the chessboard in a daze.
I don't know when, Xu Fengnian was still sitting in place, Chu Lushan had already stood up and came to Xu Fengnian's side, bent down with some difficulty, stretched out his hand, gently rubbed Xu Fengnian's head, and said softly: "Although I am very disappointed, I didn't hear the answer I wanted."
However, Your Royal Highness, you may have forgotten that when you were young, among so many righteous sons, you were always the closest to that silly and silly Luqiuer.
I've always been proud of it, and I'm happier than if I won the battle. ” "If one day, Lu Qiu'er, who has been lonely since he was a child, confesses these three hundred pounds of fat on the battlefield, don't be sad."
"In my life, Chu Lushan, it is worth it to have a home." “”:
