Han Gang's request, Wei Sheng Jun knew that the army had no reason to allow it.

Speaking of which, even if Han Gang didn't ask him, he didn't have the right to interfere. Nominally, the military judge is the adjutant of the Zhijun, but in fact, the appointment of the subordinate officials of the military state, when does it need to be approved by the Zhijun Zhizhou? That was the power of the Liunequan, the Inquisitor's Eastern Court, and the Political Affairs Hall.

Han Gang, who has the right to act cheaply, naturally also has it, but Zhijun does not.

Now that the system is set up to give face, how can the army be shameless.

"What about you?"

How could Chen Feng not want to? How rare the opportunity is, I know it with my toes, and after a few modest words, he nodded in response, "Chen Feng is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

"Good." Han Gang nodded, "I am the envoy of this road, I can't stay in the Weisheng Army for a long time, I will definitely go to Taiyuan tomorrow, you will clean up, and go north with me early tomorrow morning." ”

Chen Feng was stunned, his mouth opened, but he couldn't close it.

The Weisheng officers who were waiting to congratulate Chen Feng on being reused, and Han Gang's right-hand staff, were also stunned.

Han Gang's eyes were cold, and even Tian Yu sneered.

The power corresponds to the obligation, and the obligation to be borne by the system is naturally much heavier than that of ordinary economic envoys. Becoming a member of the system envoy naturally has a heavy obligation relative to the benefits. Official positions and benefits are not falling from the sky, and they have to be exchanged for their lives.

This is the first lesson for newcomers.

"Never!" Unexpectedly, it was the Zhijun who jumped up, "Since the Beiyu has broken through the Shiling Pass, it must have hit Taiyuan City now." There are only a dozen people around the cardinal deputy, what should I do if I meet the northern captive? Once the cardinal deputy has any accident on the way to Taiyuan, which will cause the situation in Hedong to deteriorate, so that the war situation in Hebei and Shaanxi will be reversed, this responsibility is not something that the cardinal deputy can afford to bear! ”

But he can speak. Han Gang's heart said. Blaming each other with great righteousness is a good step to step down. If you don't have any plans to go to Taiyuan, you can take the opportunity to step down.

Counsel everyone will say. Obvious risky activities, of course, to be admonished. It came from the mouth of the Zhijun, but it was unexpected. Han Gang thought that Chen Feng would speak. Either stop or approve, just became his staff, Chen Feng should have behaved, but he came out of the army.

Han Gang glanced at Chen Feng a few times, but saw that he was still a little stunned, and shook his head secretly. There is no gold and no one is perfect, although there is some vision, but the heart and courage are still far behind. But you can't blame it completely, just treat it as a thousand dollars to buy bones.

The common knowledge of physical geography, which was taken for granted in later generations, is extremely rare and untaught. Not after a thousand years, there are only a few officials who can have a certain understanding of the geography of mountains and rivers, and at the same time, it is even rarer to know a little more about military affairs. Chen Feng can see through the movements of the Liao army at a glance, and this insight is still rare.

"Why don't you stay in Tongqi County? Waiting for the reinforcements in the capital, just in time to go north to chase the Kou? The general judgment is also echoing.

"Since you have been ordered to retreat from the thief, how can you hide behind you? How can this motivate the morale of the military and the people? Han Gang smiled, "It is estimated that it is too late to enter Taiyuan Mansion City, even if the Beiyu will attack Yuci County first, they will also put a number of soldiers and horses outside Taiyuan City, but it should be no problem to rush to Taigu County." ”

Taigu County is in Taiyuan Prefecture, in addition to the state of Yangqu, and Shouyang on the Jingcheng Road, the city defense is the strongest one, and there are many garrisons. Although geographically, going to Qi County or simply going to Fenzhou to sit in the town can be closer to Guanxi and attract the support of the Western Army, but Fenzhou has already left Taiyuan, and the city of Qi County is not strong - although Han Gang wants to maintain the morale of the army and the people in Hedong, he will not joke with his life.

Han Gang said again: "If you go to Taigu County first, you can block the road of the Liao army to the south first." Of course, Yuci and even Shouyang must also strengthen their precautions, and someone needs to rush to Yuci to spread the word. ”

Zhijun immediately said: "The matter of passing the word is very important, and it cannot be delayed, and the lower official will arrange manpower." As long as the deputy writes the official letter, he will go out of the city and send it to Yuci County tonight. ”

Zhijun is capable and can speak, and his performance today is not bad. Several people had already quietly turned their attention to Chen Feng, who had just been transferred away by Han Gang. The performance of this newly acquired staff member is a little inferior.

Chen Feng was also aware and said hastily: "In addition to Yuci, there is also Fenzhou in the west that also needs to be reminded to strengthen precautions. There is a direct passage from Fenshui to Guanzhong, and only by controlling Yuci and Fenzhou can the northern captives dare to go south. ”

As soon as Chen Feng's words came out, Han Gang's face changed in an instant, was it too hasty to choose Chen Feng to join the shogunate? Qianjin City horse bones, bought good or bad is also the bones of a thousand horses, not inferior horses.

The main forces of the Western Army are all in Xingling and Yinxia, and they cannot be transferred in a short time. And just after a battle, you have to rest for a while. At this point, the Liao people will not be ignorant of the way. In the case that the troops under Hedong are not enough to advance on both sides and attack the city and seize the land at the same time, it is natural to weigh and understand the importance of Yuci and Fenzhou, and divide them first. If you want to occupy Yuci County in advance before the official army reacts, no matter how many soldiers and horses you have, it will be too little, except for suppressing part of Taiyuan City, the remaining states and counties will not pay attention to it for a while.

"As for Taiyuan, the city is high and the walls are thick, and the Liao people will only block the way out of the defenders in the city, and will not forcibly attack." Chen Feng continued, "So as long as you let the city know that reinforcements are coming, you can hold Taiyuan City steadily. ”

“…… As I said, Fenzhou does need to be reminded to strengthen precautions. "Tian Yu will protect the face of his new colleagues, because this is related to Han Gang's face.

Han Gang shook his head gently, Fenzhou is fine, it doesn't hurt to notify you, but some mistakes must be corrected immediately, which is more important than personal face.

Tian Yu saw Han Gang's reaction and immediately changed his words, "But it's hard to say about Taiyuan...... The inside story of the lack of troops in the city will be discovered by the northern captives, and most of the northern captives will try to capture Taiyuan with heavy troops. ”

When it comes to military affairs, although it is not Tian Yan's forte, he has been by Han Gang's side for a long time, and he also has a certain degree of understanding, and his words are methodical. However, as soon as these words were said, people were even more worried about the safety of Taiyuan. The expressions of the officials of the Wasion Army became more solemn again, and they all looked at Han Gang, hoping that he could give a negative answer.

"The mountains and rivers on the east side of the river are not used by cavalry. For a long time, Hebei has been the first choice for the north to go south. But now that the situation has changed, the dangerous passes in Hedong have been broken through one after another, but the border deadlock has not been broken in Hebei, so the Beiyu will inevitably transfer the main force to Hedong...... In other words, it has been transferred, so that the northern captives will inevitably have the idea of capturing Taiyuan. ”

The Liao did not have the ability to deploy troops in two strategic directions at the same time to conduct a major war. When they make a breakthrough in Hedong, Hebei will naturally be reduced to a diversionary battlefield. Taiyuan City is the center of gravity of Hedong Road, north of Daizhou, south of the Central Plains, east of Jingcheng to Hebei, west of the Fen River into the pass, is the land of four links, how can the Liao people ignore it?

"There were not many soldiers and horses in Taiyuan, and half of them were transferred to Hebei, and the rest were no longer enough. The soldiers and horses that can be transferred to Hebei cannot be transferred back, otherwise the war situation in Hebei may also be corroded...... In any case, Guo Zhongtong would not agree to transfer troops from Hebei, if it was through the exchange of official documents of the imperial court, and when a result was reached, it would almost be summer. ”

Han Gang had previously advised against transferring back the soldiers and horses sent to Hebei from Hedong, which was very likely to become king. Kechen's excuse for shirking responsibility. When he said this, Han Gang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the situation had changed too quickly, which was unexpected.

His remarks bordered on alarmism, and the officials became even more uneasy. Zhijun and Tongju are muttering in their stomachs, let's say a few words, the people below are about to be frightened.

However, although the situation in Hedong is in danger on the surface, there is still a chance to turn defeat into victory. The so-called misfortune and blessing rely on, and blessing and misfortune lurk. The deeper the Liao people went deep into Hedong, the more dangerous they became. Han Gang's truth is very simple, and the individuals here can easily figure it out, but they still pricked up their ears and listened to Han Gang's next words, "Hedong is different from Hebei, on the Qianli Plain, the cavalry can gallop vertically and horizontally, and if you want to go, you can stay, but in Hedong, as long as you get stuck in a few dangerous roads, you will catch turtles in the urn and close the door and beat the dogs." ”

"Shut the door and hit the dog?" Han Gang's words were funny, which made several of the originally serious Wasion officers chuckle.

But the key is the mentality that Han Gang showed. Since receiving the news, he has still been able to maintain the appearance of not being anxious or annoyed, and he is calm and relaxed, which makes all the officials present feel relieved and relieved.

However, there are also people who slander, where will there be such a good opportunity? It would be great to be able to hold Taiyuan, at most it would only expand the scope of recovery and regain some of the lost land.

The art of war in Hedong was not carried out thoroughly, and Han Gang had only set up seven generals in the military states and Taiyuan Prefecture on the edge of the border before. When he was ready to rectify the forbidden army in the military state in the southeast of the river, he was transferred back to the capital. And the generals and colonels he promoted and appointed when he set up seven generals happened to be the target of the new border generals. Those who have not been reused have been promoted, and those who have been reused have been suppressed, and there is no need to bother to investigate, just look at the official positions of each person before and after.

To this day, most of the seven generals reunited by Han Gang in order to improve the overall combat effectiveness of the Hedong Army can be said to have been abolished. It's no longer useful. The Western Army couldn't come for a while, and the Hebei Army couldn't come back, and only the local soldiers and horses in the capital and Hedong were left, and they were all useless for a while.

Many people understand this, but Han Gang said with a smile: "Only if you want to wipe out all the northern captives who have entered the Kou, can you hope to regain the lost land." If you only fight with the intention of preserving Taiyuan, the result will definitely be to throw Daizhou and Xinzhou into the hands of Beiyu. ”

Tian Yu reacted quickly: "Take it from it, get it?" ”

Han Gang smiled and nodded.

What he meant was exactly what he meant in the Analects: 'Take what is above and get what is in it; Take from it, get it from below; If you take from below, you will get nothing. This paragraph expresses the truth.

Speaking of which, the Analects is indeed a classic worthy of deep thought and study, but it has been over-interpreted by Confucian scholars throughout the ages, and it will make people have a rebellious psychology in later generations.

"Having said that, if there is really a chance to annihilate the Northern Captives, I will not let it go!" Han Gang grinned, Bai Sensen's teeth lined with a gentle smile suddenly became hideous, "Since you're here, don't go!" ”
