Chapter 68 If you don't make a move, you will already make a shock
In Chang'an City, in Wei Zheng's mansion, Wei Zheng had a plate of vinegar celery and a plate of salted soybeans in front of the table. Wei Zheng picked up the wine glass and muttered to himself: "How to solve your worries, only Du Kang ......"
At that moment, there was a soft knock on the door.
Wei Zheng got up and opened the door, Fang Xuanling was carrying a huge food box, and Fang Xuanling raised his hand at Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng invited Fang Xuanling in.
Fang Xuanling quipped lightly: "Wei Xuancheng, you are also the respect of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial court gives you thirty charcoal fees every year, and you are not willing to spend it!" ”
Wei Zheng let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile: "Xuan Ling, drink with me!" ”
Fang Xuanling put the dishes in the food box on the table and said, "Xuancheng, drink slowly!" ”
Wei Zheng raised his head, poured a glass of turbid wine, and poured it straight into his mouth.
Fang Xuanling went to snatch Wei Zheng's wine glass, and said, "Xuancheng, you didn't drink the wine like this!" ”
Wei Zheng didn't take Fang Xuanling in the end, he was so anxious that he picked up the wine jar and poured it straight into his mouth.
Fang Xuanling got up and grabbed the wine jar, and said, "Xuancheng, you drank all the wine...... What does Fang want to drink? ”
Wei Zheng sighed and said with a wry smile: "A drunk relieves a thousand sorrows, if it can really be like this, how good it would be!" ”
Fang Xuanling frowned, and said slowly: "You can't blame everything, Li Yaoshi has continuously broken through the Turks, and the captured Turkic cavalry has been nearly 100,000. ”
Wei Zheng sighed and said, "It's a pity......"
Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "Xuancheng, do you think Your Majesty will hate me now and stop him from doing it in person?" ”
Wei Zheng shook his head and said: "As a monarch, you can't be a general, Your Majesty has already figured out this truth, even if he is a little disappointed, he will not hold a grudge against you." ”
After Wei Zheng finished speaking, he still sighed unwillingly: "If you don't fight the tiger, you won't die, but you will suffer from it...... Now the Turks and the Tang Dynasty are already a never-ending situation, and they must not be tolerated! ”
Fang Xuanling nodded and said: "Yes, Your Majesty is well versed in the way of using soldiers, he is right, he must prepare for the next national war!" ”
Wei Zheng said: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun......"
Fang Xuanling said: "Xuancheng, what do you mean ......?"
Wei Zheng said: "We must come up with a strategy for using troops as soon as possible, and we would rather suffer for three years than solve the Turkic trouble!" ”
Fang Xuanling looked at the snowflakes floating outside the window and said, "Xuancheng...... Are you going to the Menxia Provincial Government Hall? ”
……
Da'an Palace, Chang'an City.
Li Yuan and his son sat on the desk for a night banquet.
In the middle of the main hall, several dancing girls danced to the music.
Li Jiancheng was listless, pulling the dishes on the plate in front of him with chopsticks. Whenever Li Jiancheng picked up a piece of meat or a dish, Li Jiancheng would put it back in the dishes.
Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng and smiled softly: "Da Lang, are you still thinking about the war in Mobei?" ”
Li Jiancheng smiled bitterly and said, "Daddy, is my son too greedy?" ”
Li Yuan shook his head and said: "It's the same for Daddy, the Turks have threatened the Central Plains for hundreds of years, and it is difficult to eradicate them overnight!" ”
Li Jiancheng said indignantly: "It's just a pity for my son, the Turks have never been as weak as they are today in the past hundred years, and if you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to eradicate it." ”
Li Yuan said disapprerovitously: "On the grassland, in addition to the Turks, there are so many tribes, today the Turks are eliminated, tomorrow maybe, a new dynasty will emerge, if you want to eradicate the trouble, you can't expect a war." ”
Li Jiancheng nodded and continued to say listlessly: "My son is taught." ”
In fact, Li Jiancheng figured it out.
The grassland has been a major problem for the Central Plains Dynasty since ancient times. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were Dog Rong, and later during the Qin and Han dynasties, there were Xiongnu, after the destruction of the Xiongnu, it finally became history, but the grassland was not peaceful because of this, but Xianbei began to rise.
In the more than 200 years of Xianbei dominating the Central Plains, the Rouran people began to rise again.
After the decline of the Rouran, the Turks rose.
In fact, Li Jiancheng took it for granted.
Even after the fall of the Turks, the Khitans, who had suffered for hundreds of years in the steppe, began to rise, and after the fall of the Khitans, there were Jurchens, Mongolians and Manchus.
In fact, successive dynasties have failed to solve the grassland crisis.
Li Jiancheng was full of worries, and he couldn't help but feel a little drunk.
Li Yuan saw that Li Jiancheng was drunk, but he didn't persuade him to drink again.
Seeing that it was not too early, Li Jiancheng offered to leave.
Just when Li Jiancheng left Da'an Palace, he didn't feel sleepy, he saw that the lights of the province under the door were bright, so he ordered the car to move and walk towards the door.
In Menxia Province, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Yang Gongren, Yu Wenhua, Wang Qi, and Gao Shilian were all checking the folds and discussing countermeasures.
Wei Zheng looked at the mountains of files on the case, and said lightly: "What we want to discuss today is the Turkic ...... Long-term combat readiness. Xuancheng, what is your opinion?
Fang Xuanling just sat down, busy rummaging through the documents on the case, and said while flipping through them: "I have a preliminary strategy here, but it is still too brief, you can take it out first and show it to everyone...... After the war is over, the northern states and counties will report detailed statistical results, and then make adjustments......"
Yang Gongren was about to speak, and the moment he got up, he saw Li Jiancheng coming from outside.
Li Jiancheng gestured to Yang Gongren and motioned for Yang Gongren to keep quiet.
Fang Xuanling looked down at Wen Mu and said: "According to the statistics reported by Li Jing, this time our army defeated a total of 230,000 Turkic horses, annihilated 128,000 of them, captured more than 93,000 Turkic men and women, and more than 170,000 cattle and sheep and miscellaneous animals. Before the outbreak of the war, the Ministry of War reported that the Turks had 355,000 cavalry, 1,140,000 men and women, and more than 3 million cattle, sheep and miscellaneous animals......"
……
At the same time, the northwest slope of Shengle City, which was originally an inconspicuous hillside, has actually increased by more than a zhang in the past half a month. It's just that no one noticed.
After Chen Ying arrived at this unknown hillside outside Shengle City, he took advantage of the mountain situation to arrange the entire sleigh car city overnight. The sled is connected to the sled, and it can form a car city passage with a width of one foot and two feet and a height of about eight feet. More than 1,600 sleds will form a snow city covering an area of more than two standard football fields.
This snowy city not only has a complete stable, a hay field, a grain storehouse, a canteen, and even a bathhouse where you can soak in hot water.
After Chen Ying arrived here, he used the Tiger Yicong and the elite scouts of the Dingyuan Army to keep a close eye on the battle of Dingxiang and Baidao, and also closely monitored Shengle City.
To say that Sheng Le flew out of a mosquito, Chen Ying can know it, this is definitely an exaggeration, but if Jieli's rout arrives here, Chen Ying will definitely know it in the first time.
More than 6,000 troops, not too much, but definitely not too little, gathered together, especially in a narrow space, it is no exaggeration to say that the submariners of later generations also have a larger space for activity than the officers and men of the Dingyuan Army at this time.
However, there is no way.
Chen Ying summoned all officers, especially officers at the rank of lieutenant and above, to teach. Tomorrow, let the lieutenant, lieutenant Guo Yi and Zhichong Prefecture study, and then, in the evening, the lieutenants and lieutenants of Zhichong will be transferred to the brigade commander, team commander and junior officers at the rank of gang commander.
Of course, space is limited.
Chen Ying can only teach in batches.
Chen Ying faced the new batch of lieutenant officers and said slowly: "War is the continuation of politics, and politics is the direct embodiment of people's livelihood and economy. In other words, the ultimate goal of fighting a war is to earn money, food, population, and territory, and all wars that are profitable for the army are wars with fixed goals, and on the contrary, they are unnecessary wars! In a word, to fight a war, it is necessary to calculate the gains and losses of interests. The generals who don't calculate the gains and losses of interests are unqualified generals! ”
Chen Ying's words are definitely earth-shattering in this era.
Liu Renliang took the charcoal very seriously and recorded Chen Ying's every word and deed.
Chen Ying has a lot of words, and the reason is very simple: "Just understanding the truth is not useful." If there is no solution, can just talk about it change the overall situation? Take the current situation as an example. The battle has come to this point, if you are General Li Jing and Li, you will probably order the withdrawal of troops, right? Leaving two troops around Zhichong Prefecture to defend the territory, the brigade pulled back to rest, and used Xinzhou as a military salient area, or a strategic buffer zone, and repeatedly tug-of-war with the Turks in this area in the future, right? ”
The generals nodded thoughtfully.
Chen Ying continued: "Playing a place is not just as simple as a few white-knuckle charges, otherwise it is better not to fight!" To be able to attack is to be able to defend, to turn nothing into something, to turn the enemy into me, to turn the guest into the main, the war is not only military, the time and place are favorable, you can't wait to wait, it is one thing to conquer the city, to receive the city, to control the city, to use the city, this is another thing! ”
Liu Renliang and other generals were already demented, and he subconsciously asked, "Can this be done?" ”
Chen Ying smiled faintly and said: "There is nothing in the world that cannot be done, only the distinction between doing and not doing!" It's better to do it than not to do it well, even if it may not be able to have an effect, if you don't do it, it will never have an effect! Since we have sent troops to attack the Turks, it is a battle of life and death, and this kind of battle is to fight for time, land, and people, and everything! ”
……
Shengle City, the so-called Shengle City. It is the capital of the predecessor of the Northern Wei Dynasty in the Northern and Southern Dynasties era, and later Tuoba Jue took advantage of the fragmentation of the former Qin to proclaim himself the king of Niuchuan and rebuild the country, and the capital of Shengle was renamed the king of Wei in April of the same year.
However, as the Wei State became stronger and stronger, the capital was moved to Pingcheng, and later, the capital was moved to Luoyang.
Shengle has only been the capital of Wei for two years, and of course, Shengle City is not big, and it has been abandoned for too long. The scale of the walls here is not even in the good condition of the Thin Bone Law City.
Of course, even the most dilapidated city is more comfortable than a cold tent.
At this time, the Eastern Turk Khan Ashina Suni lost his command and called out the special service, and said after considering the words: "Dingxiang has been lost, Baidao has also been lost, even Shengle is now in danger, the enemy army of the six routes is about to meet, once Li Shiji, Li Jing and Li Xiaogong join forces, the situation on the eastern front will be irreversible." Now it seems that the Yinshan front line is the enemy's main attack direction, there should be no doubt! ”
All the secret services were noncommittal, and raised their heads to look at Ashina Suni and said, "Shekhan, what do you think?" ”
Ashina Suni sighed and did not speak.
Ash Nazhong on the side interjected: "I don't know what the big plan is, but this time it's not for us to beat people." It's someone who comes to fight us, attack Pingcheng, we have a big deal to withdraw our troops, and now it's someone who occupies our Shengle, so we can't withdraw our troops, right? To be withdrawn. Where to retreat? Sanli has joined forces, 200,000 soldiers, where do we withdraw? Could it be true that others were forced to go to the North Sea (that is, Lake Belga)? ”
Ashina Suni raised his head and glanced at Nashi Nazhong and said, "It's not a big deal to retreat to Beihai, these people are outsiders after all." When you send troops to fight, you need food and grass. How many families does Li Tang have in total? With such a toss, how much advantage can he take advantage of? Although the eastern front is lively now, I am afraid that if I fight Li for another month or two, the Li family's soldiers will run out of food. How long can they hold out without eating the ground? ”
Ashina Zhong was obviously not convinced, but he didn't dare to keep silent with Ashina Suni.
Ashina Nero smiled: "That loyal is not necessarily a bad general. But when it comes to the general trend, it's better for you to keep your mouth shut. Uncle and your father Khan are both experienced people, and now that I am weak in the enemy, we must be cautious! ”
Ashina Suni sighed and said, "Maybe I'm really old, and my eyelids are always jumping these days." The weather is also abnormal this time, getting colder and colder day by day, I am not afraid of Li Jing when I go into battle to kill the enemy, but the current situation is definitely not something that can be solved by slashing and killing for a while......"
At this moment, a guard hurriedly crawled in and said, "The Great Khan is here!" ”
Ashina Suni was shocked.
The crowd hurried towards the door.
I saw Jieli Khan break in with an embarrassed face.
At this time, Jielihe Khan's face was on the left and right, all of which were frost-cracked wounds, and he had a hideous smile on his face, and the wounds were cracked, and disgusting yellow water flowed out.
Jieli Khan looked at the people present with cold eyes, and said gloomily: "What...... When I saw the Great Khan, were they all dumb? ”
^……
Just as Jieli Khan had just entered Shengle City on his front foot, Chen Ying, who was giving a lesson to the officers of the Yuan Army on his back foot, also received the news.
"General! Jieli fled into Shengle City! ”
Hearing this, Chen Ying heard this, and a sneer appeared on his face.
Chen Ying's gaze instantly became murderous, his eyes were like electricity, and he slowly looked at the generals and said, "Now that General Ben will teach you another trick, the battle should be fought like this......
Saying that, Chen Ying ordered: "Remove all fire restrictions, how big the fire will burn for this general!" ”
Although they didn't understand the meaning of Chen Ying's order, the officers and men of the Dingyuan Army still resolutely carried out Chen Ying's order.
There are more than 1,600 sleds, each equipped with six stoves, which are used to warm the soldiers in the vans.
Tens of thousands of furnaces burn at the same time, producing a large amount of hot gas.
In cold weather conditions, the hot air rises rapidly, and when it encounters cold air above, it immediately condenses into snowflakes and begins to snow.
However, this snowfall is artificially snowfall, and the range is very small.
If you look down from the sky, this artificial snowfall actually barely shrouded Shengle City.
Although it is small, it is enough for Chen Ying!
The night sky, which had been clear, turned to snow in an instant.
The soldiers of the Zhongding Yuan Army looked at each other.
They almost unanimously remembered a rumor: "General Chen knows how to spell?" ”
Chen Ying naturally did not explain to them what air convection is and what thermal expansion and contraction are.
Instead, he simply ordered: "Kill into Shengle and capture Jieli alive!" ”
