Chapter 1000: Persuasion
Yang Feng stretched out his hands and pressed down, and all the generals stopped talking after seeing this, and the big tent immediately fell silent, and Yang Feng said: "Okay, since the Liukou is here, and our army's grain and grass have been replenished, we should study how to deal with this Liukou." ”
"Everybody, come and see."
Speaking of this, Yang Feng stood up and walked to the tent, and the two personal soldiers next to him walked over, one of them was holding a long scroll in his hand, and the two of them walked to the middle of the big tent and pulled the scroll open in front of everyone.
This is a map of Henan Province with a height of two meters per person, whether it is mountains and rivers, official roads and even villages and cities around the country are marked in great detail, although it is not as good as the high-definition military map drawn by satellites and artificial drawings in later generations, but it is already shocking in this era, and this map is also Yang Feng spent a lot of manpower and material resources to draw it earlier, just in case, today it really came in handy.
The generals stepped forward to look at this clear map, and they were all amazed, Yang Feng casually picked up a small stick and pointed to a place and said: "Everyone, please look, this is Luoyang City, where we are now, and this is Huaiqing Mansion."
There are two roads after the Liukou capture Huaiqing Mansion, one is through Hanoi, Yangwu Mansion, Xuanwu Mansion directly to Kaifeng, and the other is through Mengxian, Mengjin, Henan Mansion and then attack Luoyang. ”
"Needless to say, it must be to attack Luoyang."
Gou Xingma said without thinking. ”
"Although the thieves claim to be 200,000, at least half of the thieves are old, weak, women and children, and the rest of the people are only in their early 30,000s or 40,000 at best.
We have an army of more than 20,000 people, and we still have to eat nearly 100,000 catties of grain every day, let alone the rogues. As long as Gao Yingxiang doesn't get dizzy, he won't let Luoyang near him not fight, but instead attack the Fengfu. You must know that the city of Kaifeng Mansion is no worse than Luoyang, and it is not so easy for Liukou to capture it. ”
"Are you thinking the same way?"
The generals nodded one after another: "Grandpa, the last general and others seconded the proposal, Kaifeng is six or seven hundred miles away from Huaiqing Mansion, and this road has to pass through Wuling, Yuanwu, Xuanwu and other passes in the past, and they don't want to arrive at Kaifeng Mansion without two months, so Gao Yingxiang is not so stupid." ”
Yang Feng nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm...... Yes, it seems that you have put your heart into it. Kaifeng is indeed Taiyuan from Huaiqing Mansion, there are too few mules and horses in Liukou, almost all on foot, if you want to rely on two legs all the way to Kaifeng Mansion in a few months, you can't do it at all, he Gao Yingxiang will definitely not take that road as long as his brain is not dizzy, then the rest is only coming towards us! ”
"Hahaha......"
All the generals laughed, if the Jiangning army hadn't come, the Liukou might have had a chance to attack Luoyang, but now that the Jiangning army has come, Luoyang City is their grave.
At this time, Song Ye walked into the big tent quickly: "Grandpa Guo, Governor Yin, Lord Yue, Lord Lu and others are asking to see you outside the camp!" ”
"Oh......"
Yang Feng glanced at the generals and smiled: "Look, someone can't sit still more than us." ”
With that, he nodded, "Let them in." ”
Soon, Yin Luzhong, Yue An and Lu Da, as well as more than a dozen gentry-looking people, walked in under the leadership of Song Ye.
As soon as he entered the door, Yin Luzhong said to Yang Feng: "Xinguo Gong, you must also know the news of the fall of Huaiqing Mansion, Xia Guan came here to invite you to lead a large army to settle in Luoyang City on behalf of hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang City." ”
Yang Fengqi said: "Settled in Luoyang City? Why? ”
Seeing that Yang Feng actually asked rhetorically, Yin Luzhong and Yue An, Lu Dayou and others behind him were nervous, this guy has also collected the silver, and the food is also gone, could it be that he plans to eat it dry and wipe it clean and not admit it?
Lu Dayou hurriedly said: "Grandpa Guo, now that Huaiqing Mansion is lost, the Liukou are coming, how can the Jiangning army defend the city if it is not settled?" ”
"That's right, Grandpa Guo, now that the situation is urgent, the sooner the Jiangning army enters the city, the sooner they can familiarize themselves with the city defense, and if they are killed, they can be prepared."
"Grandpa Guo, if you still don't think the food is enough, we can still mobilize the gentry to donate some more."
Several men around also spoke out to persuade each other.
Seeing these rich people, Yang Feng guessed their identities in his heart, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he asked, "Who are you?" ”
Seeing that Yang Feng was a little displeased, Yue An hurriedly explained: "Grandpa Guo, these are the gentry of Luoyang City, and this time I came to ask you to lead the army into the city on behalf of the people of Luoyang City. ”
"You guys!" Yang Feng couldn't cry or laugh a little: "You don't have to worry, my father came to Luoyang to exterminate the Liukou, and you don't have to worry that the Jiangning army will flee without a fight." However, there is no need to enter the city, this time the Duke decided to lead the army out of Henan Mansion and go to Mengjin to meet the enemy, and strive to annihilate the Liukou. ”
"What...... Greet...... Facing the enemy? ”
Yang Feng's words frightened these people, this guy actually put the strong Luoyang City and didn't hold on, but took the initiative to meet the enemy, this guy has something wrong with his brain, right?
Yue An stammered: "Grandpa Guo, there are ...... Liukou There are 200,000 of them. Xia Guan thought that he would still defend the city, and it would not be too late to lead the army to attack after the thieves were tired. ”
"Yes, Grandpa Guo, Lord Yue is right, let's wait until the thief Kou is exhausted before attacking." A group of gentry persuaded one after another, and one kept persuading with a sad face and bitter words.
At first, Yang Feng could still listen to two sentences, but after a while, Yang Feng gradually became impatient, and said coldly: "Okay, how to use troops is the business of my father, you don't need to persuade anymore, my father has already discussed with the generals, and tomorrow morning, my father will lead the Jiangning army to meet the enemy, so you don't need to persuade again." My father still has military affairs, so if you don't have anything else to do, please go back. ”
"This ......"
The crowd, who were frightened by the eviction order, were quickly sent out of the barracks.
A gentry said to Yin Luzhong: "Lord Yin, you just want to think of something, the thieves are powerful, if the Duke of Xinguo goes here, if there is a good one, who else can we rely on to defend Luoyang City?" ”
Yin Luzhong shook his head: "It seems that the Duke of Xinguo has made up his mind to fight the thief in the field, and what can this official do, he can only resign himself to fate." ”
Yue An and Lu Dayou glanced at each other, and both of them saw the gloom in each other's eyes.
In their opinion, Yang Feng was too risky this time. The risk of field battle is too great, a bad one is the end of the rout, on the contrary, Luoyang City has deep walls, and there is enough grain and grass, there is no problem at all to defend for a year and a half, in fact, as long as you hold it for a month or two, the rogue will naturally retreat, why take the risk?
