Chapter 394: Cutting Friendship (I)
Lu Zhe is young, according to the current custom, that is, he has reached the age of the crown ceremony, and usually this time is also the age when he travels the world to find the so-called Ming Lord.
It's good to be young, looking at today's monarchs, Lu Zhe is at least twenty years younger than those monarchs who have reached the prime of life or old age, if you can use time to survive until you die before anyone else, and the one who doesn't die wins the world, then it goes without saying that the world is definitely owned by Lu Zhe.
Sometimes being young also means impulsive, and young people will also be more inclined to nationalism, so much so that when he heard that the Chinese were hunted as prey by the Baiyue people, Lu Zhe immediately became angry.
The monarch does not act according to his own preferences, let alone make decisions because of emotional fluctuations, these Lu Zhe understands, but he really gave birth to the idea of killing Baiyue.
"Lord?" It was the first time that Kuaitong saw Lu Zhe with a hideous expression, referring to the tragic incident that happened in Changsha County, how could he not know where the anger of his lord came from: "Lord, Baiyue people should be killed, but there is still a need for Zhang and relaxation to seek land." β
Four ...... Oh no, now it's a three. The alliance between the three clans and the Baiyue people has been broken, judging from the intelligence of the careful spying, the three clans will sooner or later have to fight with the Baiyue, this time Lu Zhe wants to attack Changsha County, and the three clans are obviously the objects that can be used.
LΓΌ Zhe rose rapidly, and he has always used force to subdue people, and rarely has diplomatic relations and military posture at the same time.
That was because the administrative system was unclear before, and the external forces had just been established, and the expansion by force was also a common feature of the new forces, and this was because the new forces lacked scribes and could not do it if they wanted to seek diplomatic relations.
It's different now, Kuaitong itself is a master of the art of power change, Shusun Tong not only knows the etiquette system, but also seems to have the experience of many envoys, Lu Zhe can already learn the strength of those countries with a perfect administrative system, play the mutual cooperation between diplomatic relations and wars, and seek land will definitely be more smooth than only using force.
"General Wu Rui was defeated and retreated, Changsha County fell, and the three clans were natives of Changsha. may have a marriage with Baiyue, but he may not be willing to see Baiyue rampant in Changsha. Kuaitong's meaning is very clear, the three clans have fallen out with the Baiyue people, and they are objects that can be used: "As long as the Lord promises a little benefit, we can have internal response in Changsha, and second, we can eliminate the threat of elephant soldiers." Moreover, not only to attack Changsha, but also with the elephant soldiers of the Lian clan, it is more certain that the Lord will attack Lingnan. β
Understood, of course Lu Zhe understood. The three clans and the Baiyue people turned their faces and gave them an opportunity to capture Changsha County, which also made the plan to recapture Changsha County advanced. However, it doesn't matter if Lu Zhe is sick, or if he has a fever in the brain, the three clans will lead the wolf into the house before the tragic situation of Baiyue cannibalism will occur, and if he doesn't kill these people, he will be unwilling. Those who were eaten by the Chinese were unwilling.
"Lord, you can win over first without making a promise, judging from the actions of the three clans, we only need to make a little empty promise, and the three clans will definitely be deceived. Waiting to take Changsha County. At that time, the Lord may find a reason to punish him. Sima Xin persuaded him.
The commander of the Southern Army, Nanfang Zhonglang, had already been determined to be Sima Xin, and he naturally wanted to pave the way for the attack on Changsha County. Winning over the three clans obviously had great benefits for the capture of Changsha County, and he naturally strongly supported it.
"Make a promise and settle the score after winning?" Lu Zhe felt that this was purely a bad idea. Conquering territory is a no-compromise measure, but a monarch's credit has a limit, and no monarch will waste his credit unless it is absolutely necessary.
Sima Xin had apparently already made a decision. He smiled for a while, looked at his colleagues around him, and said, "The last general is the main general of the south, and the last general can take care of it." β
Oh, that is to say, the conditions promised can be pressed on Sima Xin's head, and the person who loses his credit after the autumn is also Sima Xin, and the people of the world will scold Sima Xin if they want to scold, and they will not scold Lu Zhe.
"Huh? You ......" Lu Zhe can understand Sima Xin's thoughts, this is a disguised self-destruction of reputation, what Sima Xin wants to express is to replace the master, the question is whether Sima Xin has made a mistake, is Lu Zhe the kind of person who wants to do things but hesitates and does not take it?
Kuai Tong also looked sideways for a while, he didn't think Sima Xin was a loyal person, and if Sima Xin was a loyal person, he would not become a general. However, Kuaitong is very satisfied with Sima Xin's attitude after he joined the service, Sima Xin was low-key and humble after he joined the Lu Zhe Group, and he was also a military general who knew how to be a man.
There is such a person who admires Sima Xin very much, Yan Bi has always liked to know the times, and it is easy to use people who know how to judge the situation and see the reality clearly, this kind of person may not have amazing talents, but it is better to understand that everything must follow the monarch, and the popular point is that it is easy to control.
"Diplomatic relations and war cooperate with each other, and Benhou has no objection." Lu Zhe has not yet taken the turn of his subordinates, and he will not cold the loyalty of his subordinates, but this matter still needs to be summed up. He said and smiled at Sima Xin, which was regarded as a gratifying attitude, and then continued: "Attacking Changsha County, the first phase will send 50,000 troops, and the initial goal is to recover Luo County and gain a firm foothold in Luo County first. Ben Hou now has a concern, although the winter army can achieve the advantage of attacking its unpreparedness by surprise, but have we set the goal a little small? If the enemy reacts and does not fight with us, and the Baiyue people scatter and flee, hiding in the mountains and forests to play a sneak attack, we will not be able to effectively kill and injure more Baiyue people even if we recover Changsha County. β
Xiao He immediately said: "The grain and grass are worry-free, but it is already the limit to drive out 70,000 sets of quilts in two months, and no matter how much it is, it is really impossible." β
Yes, the main reason is that the materials can't keep up, and then they encounter such a good opportunity to send troops, it seems that the fight can only make a small fuss, and the big fight is more than enough and not enough.
Baiyue's entry into Changsha County this time is the army, not the army and the people who encroached on Qianzhong County at the beginning, Lu Zhe's worrying situation is not that he is worrying, but that Baiyue people really rarely appear in the battle of the Chinese army, and they will go into the deep mountains and old forests whenever something is wrong.
Don't mow the grass for Baiyue, just get the threat of Baiyue is still there, and this time Lu Zhe watched the Baiyue people enter Changsha County, in addition to being unable to support Wu Rui, he didn't want the Baiyue people to get out of the poor mountains and bad waters, and come to Changsha County to eliminate them on a large scale, laying a preliminary foundation for the future attack on Lingnan.
"If you say, If you ...... If the winter clothes are not prepared, more troops ......" Lu Zhe was too hesitant, if he really did this, he might not be at a disadvantage in fighting with the Baiyue people, but the lack of winter clothes would cause a lot of unnecessary losses, "Or ...... A little more adventurous? Don't make such a small plan, just take Luo County and then stop, but take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to drive straight in? β
Everyone began to be a little confused, Lu Zhe's use of troops has always been based on safety, not the type of never moving lightly. This time, how could Lu Zhe say such a statement?
Doesn't seem right, right? After they thought about it, Lu Zhe's use of troops was not so step-by-step, and after starting from Yiling, he relied more on lightning-fast momentum to defeat the enemy, and several big victories relied on defeating the enemy army and then leading the army to pursue and cover the killing, so each victory was a lot of gains.
In fact, there is no fixed mode for Lu Zhe to use soldiers, which the people of the same group are not so concerned about, but the enemy has already noticed it, Xiang Liang is the person who has studied Lu Zhe the most, and said that "the impermanence of the use of troops is better than that".
What did Xiang Liang mean by that? Probably that Lu Zhe used the troops too much according to the actual situation, but every time Lu Zhejun can appear in the most appropriate position at the most critical time, it is difficult to guess what kind of arrangement Lu Zhe did before Lu Zhejun appeared, which makes it difficult to do it for fortification.
Is this Xiang Liang praising Lu Zhe's military methods? No, no, no! In fact, Xiang Liang was scolding Lu Zhe for being worthy of being born in a wild road, but every time his luck was so good, the blind cat ran into a dead mouse, if he didn't succeed in a risk, Lu Zhe would definitely lose everything.
"The Lord means...... Create a false impression of hastily dispatching troops to induce Baiyue to gather troops to fight? "Kuaitong is worthy of being a wise man, Lu Zhe only started at the beginning, and he sensed the intention.
There is no way to do it, the Chinese army and the Baiyue people are in battle, a Chinese soldier can definitely do five Baiyue people, and it is the strength gap between the five barbarians that makes the Baiyue people no longer fight with the Chinese after suffering losses.
"That's pretty much what it means." Lu Zhe looked at Sima Xin: "The overall strategy is to take Changsha County, and the more focused goal is to kill enough Baiyue people. β
Sima Xin nodded: "The men in Changsha County are almost two-thirds of the young and strong Ouyue and Minyue, if this battle can be eliminated, it will not be difficult for us to attack Lingnan in the future." β
This means that there is no one present who does not understand this meaning, but when it comes to achieving that goal, there is a big strategic direction, and it is not easy to operate in practice at all.
The Baiyue people are a little savage, and they may not be as knowledgeable as the Chinese, but it doesn't mean that the Baiyue people are stupid, they also know what it means to retreat, so Sima Xin can't show too fiercely, but he can't be so incompetent that the Baiyue people can see that it is pretending, so that they can only play something real.
"Lord, we still have nearly 100,000 prisoners of war captured before and after, and the losses of these people are ...... The Lord doesn't feel distressed, does he? Yan Bi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said: "In the battle of Jiangling, Yi Huze was also captured by our army, and there is an article to be done here." β
Not?! Take prisoners of war as a necessary illusion of casualties? Seems to work! (To be continued......)
