In the handsome tent, Liu Wei sat in the middle, with Guan Yu and Zhang Liang as the leaders of the civil and military divisions on both sides, one by one in high spirits, high morale, after this battle, everyone believed that it was not far from the day when the Han Empire would dominate the world.
In just half a year, two decisive battles made the situation completely clear, even if the Han army drew nearly a million heroes to the west to rest in peace, after the dust of the battle of Qingzhou settled, the Han army has formed an overwhelming situation against the lingering Tang Wei, even if Tang and Wei are now united, I am afraid that they are no longer able to resist the overwhelming trend of Mount Tai of the Han army In the first month of this year, Liu Wei, Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang designed to use Xue Gang's beating of the prince as a gimmick to make Xue Rengui surrender to Cao Wei, successfully deceived Cao Wei's think tank, and surrounded and annihilated the 50,000 horses led by Xiahou Yuan in Xuchang, resulting in Cao Wei's complete collapse in the Central Plains.
Subsequently, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Xu Da and other legions worked together to expel Cao Cao from the Central Plains in one fell swoop, drove him to the north of the Yellow River, annihilated Cao's army of about 150,000 in total, and killed Wei generals Xiahou Yuan, Xia Luqi, Pang De, Ruan Weng Zhong, Shan Xiongxin and others, and killed the strategist Guo Jia and captured Han Baohu, resulting in a one-third loss of Wei's military strength and no longer the power to counterattack.
After Cao Wei's defeat in the Central Plains, all civil and military forces, including Cao Cao, understood that if Cao Wei wanted to make a comeback, only by pinning his hopes on the Tang army to win a great victory in Qingzhou, connecting Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou into one, and opening the way to the south, could Tang Wei continue to survive.
But the cruel reality is afraid that Cao Cao could not dream that Li Shimin not only lost the battle of Qingzhou this time, but also put his own life on the line, which not only wiped out Cao Wei's hope of a comeback, but also put Li Tang into a situation from which he could never recover.
At present, Cao Wei still has the territory of Hebei and the two prefectures, as well as the enclave of Xuzhou, with a total strength of about 300,000, and the 70,000 horses led by Le Yi and Guo Ziyi, who are stationed in Xuzhou, are in danger of being wiped out.
On the other hand, the Han army, Xu Huang took Chen Ping as his military advisor, led Zhang Liao, Gan Ning, Nangong Changwan, Xu Ning, Cheng Biting Jin Zhong Wuyan and his wife, Qi Guoyuan, Meng Liang and others to raise 150,000 troops to leave Chang'an and cross the Yellow River, and have captured the western part of Hanoi County, as well as the two counties of Hedong and Pingyang.
After Fu Youde was killed in an ambush, Xu Da quickly returned to Luoyang to stabilize the situation, and led Xu Shu, Wei Jiang, Huo Jun, Zhang Xutuo, Han Baohu, Wang Ping, Hu Sanniang and others to raise 100,000 troops and stationed in Xingyang County, east of Luoyang, and Xu Huang's army were each other's horns, forming a flanking attack on Cao Ren on the north bank of the Yellow River.
After the Han army won a great victory in the Central Plains, Zhuge Liang was ordered to be the governor of 200,000 soldiers and horses to build warships, actively prepare to cross the Yellow River, and point to Yecheng, the capital of Cao Wei.
Xue Rengui, Jiang Wei, Ma Dai, Nan Jiyun, Zhang Xun, Zhang Wei, Wen Qin and other military generals actively trained the army, Han Shizhong, Liang Hongyu, and Zhu Huan led the sailors to cruise back and forth on the Yellow River.
"The above is the confrontation between our army and the Wei army" Zhang Liang, who was in charge of explaining the battle situation, held a wooden pole in his hand, wandered around the sand table in the center of the tent, pointing back and forth from time to time, and eloquently told the deployment of the Han army in the Central Plains to the Son of Heaven and the full tent of civil and military affairs.
Liu Wei listened attentively, and from time to time he nodded his head in approval, led by Guan Yu on the left, and Zhao Yun, Qin Huaiyu, Feiwei, Ji Chang, Guan Ling, Guan Ping, Guan Yinping, Zhou Cang and others stood downward; On the left side, led by Wei Qing, and down stood Liu Wuji, Yuwen Chengdu, Tai Shici, Yang Yanzhao, Qin Yong, Yang Kan, and Wen Yang and others who escorted Pan Jinlian's body back to Beijing.
To be precise, this is the first time Guan Yinping has stood face to face with her fiancé, and it is also the first time that Guan Yu and Liu Wuji have met each other, so Guan Yu's father and daughter quietly looked at this world-famous teenager from time to time, and were deeply satisfied with Liu Wuji's handsome appearance, tall figure, and extraordinary bearing.
Guan Yinping had spring in his eyebrows, and peeked at his fiancé opposite from time to time, the more he looked at it, the more he was happy, and unconsciously Xia Fei's cheeks were like a girl who moved her heart in spring, and the tiger girl who was not afraid of death on the battlefield was like two people.
Guan Yu stroked his long beard with his hand, and secretly sighed in his heart: "If it is really a dragon giving birth to a dragon, a phoenix giving birth to a phoenix, and the prince born to His Majesty is different at first glance."
There is no vanity under the fame, this son is really Guan's fast son-in-law."
And Liu Wuji's mood is a little low, for no other reason, just because Fa Xiao Lingtong, who has been following him left and right, is separated by yin and yang, and he can no longer see his figure, can no longer hear him speak, and can no longer practice martial arts together, which makes Liu Wuji's eyes always have a faint sadness.
Just after all the civil and military officers entered the tent one after another, only Ling Tong's shadow was missing, which made Liu Wuji even more sad, and he almost cried several times, so he had to hide behind the generals and quietly wipe his tears, which made Guan Yinping, who had been peeking at his lover, sad, but he didn't know how to comfort him.
Zhang Liang cleared his throat and continued to analyze the situation: "The total strength of the three corps of Zhuge Liang, Xu Huang, and Xu Da alone is close to 500,000, more than half of the total strength of the Wei army, even if there are no other legions to join, it is enough to annihilate Cao Wei." ” After a pause, he laughed loudly: "Of course, now that the battle of Qingzhou has ended, our army has released more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, plus the 100,000 Tang and Wei soldiers who have been captured and recruited, it is completely possible to invest another army and horses to accelerate the pace of destroying the Wei State." ” Liu Wei added: "In addition to the more than 200,000 horses in Gumu, Li Yaoshi has already led his troops in Jinan to launch a strong attack on Li Ji and Li Mu.
Our army will not only destroy Wei but also Tang within this year."
"After the 150,000 horses led by Li Shimin were killed in battle, the Tang Kingdom was empty, and at present, General Gongsun Qi had gathered 200,000 soldiers and horses in Kitakyushu, preparing to counterattack the Tang State itself across the sea, and it may be easier to destroy the Tang Dynasty than to destroy the Wei" The wooden pole in Zhang Liang's hand pointed to the sand table, and introduced to the civil and military that this sand table was made by Zhang Liang with more than a dozen civil officials under his command for a day and a night.
Liu Weifu asked: "How many soldiers and horses are there in the Tang Kingdom?"
Zhang Liang bowed down and replied: "Back to Your Majesty's words, according to the scouts, the total strength of the counties in the Tang Kingdom is only about 50,000 at present, except for Li Longji, the king of Jeolla, and the ministers Lin Xiangru, Li Hongzhang, Qiu Shenji, Sun Shangwu and others, there are no generals, and the Yingzhou Corps of Lu Boyan and Gongsun Qi alone is enough to sweep the Tang Dynasty itself."
"Not enough," Liu Wei raised his hand and said, "I have decided to order Wei Qing to lead 100,000 horses from Jiaodong to cross the sea to attack the Tang mainland, and then merge with the Yingzhou Army, continue to swallow Liaodong to the north, and then attack Youzhou to the west, and finally form a front and rear attack with Li Jing, and strive to wipe out all the Tang army in the fastest time." ” "The minister respectfully obeys the holy decree, and after the military discussion is over, he should move quickly" Wei Qing strode out of the column with his head held high, and received the order in a loud voice.
Zhang Liang bowed his head and said: "This is okay, after all, the 50,000 Tang Army sailors led by Li Sunchen are still alive and kicking on the sea, and General Zheng Chenggong's Qingzhou Sailors still need the help of the army if they want to win." ” Liu Wei said to Wei Qing again: "The military generals of the Tang State are not worried, only Li Yuanba is a hidden danger, I decided to let Wuji and Chengdu and the four major marksmen such as Taishi Ziyi, Yang Kan, Feiwei, and Ji Chang go out with you across the sea to counterattack the Tang Dynasty itself, and strive to join Gongsun Qi and Lu Xun's Yingzhou Corps as soon as possible."
After Li Jing expelled Li Ji and Li Mu to the north of the Yellow River, I would transfer Li Cunxiao to the Goryeo Peninsula to help in the war and besiege Li Yuanba. ” "The minister obeys the order" Wei Qing once again made a promise.
Liu Wuji came out with red eyes, hugged his fists and said: "The child respectfully obeys the holy decree of his father, this expedition to the Tang Kingdom, and swears to behead Li Yuanba's first-level sacrifice to Ling Gongji and the souls of countless heroes and martyrs of my Han in the sky."
Guan Yinping was excited in his heart, stood up and hugged his fists and said: "The little girl is willing to follow the king of Lujiang on the expedition and serve his diet and daily life."
Zhang Liang suddenly clapped his hands and laughed: "Haha, I think it's better to choose an auspicious day for King Lujiang to marry Yinping's niece, and it can be regarded as inspiring the morale of the army, so that the soldiers will be happy and happy." ” Guan Yu smiled, stroked his beard and groaned silently, wishing that the emperor would agree.
Tai Shici, Yang Liulang and others smiled and admonished: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, just forget it today, the soldiers drink the celebration wine to congratulate the king of Lujiang, drink a drunk and rest, and then set out on their own journey after dawn."
Liu Wei swept towards Guan Yu with a smile: "What does Guan Qing think?"
"To be favored by the prince and to be looked down upon by His Majesty is really the luck of the little girl's three lives, and the ministers are all but according to His Majesty's orders" Guan Yu couldn't hide his smile and took the order.
Liu Wei laughed loudly: "Okay, since all Aiqing sees it like this, then prepare for the son's room later, and marry my son Wuji and Yinping today." ” "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to General Guan" The generals hugged their fists together to congratulate, and there was laughter and laughter in the handsome tent, and a group of joy.
It is unique to be able to turn the serious military discussion into a gala banquet.
Seeing that the generals were in high spirits, Liu Wei couldn't bear to disobey everyone's wishes, so he could only agree, but he sighed secretly in his heart: "I don't know what Chang'e will think in his heart if he knows it, but this is the holy decree of his father, all the generals want to drink wine and celebrate, and I can't sing the opposite, I think Chang'e should understand me."
After the generals congratulated, Liu Wei cleared his throat and said loudly: "The Qing family is calm for the time being, it's not yet time to celebrate, our military discussion is not over yet, and the rest of the generals still have to be dispatched, and it is not too late to drink after the military discussion is over."
The generals hurriedly accepted their smiles, all held their heads high, and said in unison: "Please Your Majesty directly instruct, the ministers will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire, and they will not give up." t1706231537:
