Chapter 189: Liangzhou Changes
Facing Liu Han's resolute expression, Gu Wei sighed softly: "People, it's not that I want to be strong, I plan to go down to inspect in two days, Mo Qi is going to sit in the county guard's mansion, Chao You wants to go with me, Lord Ju is not in good health, now I can only count on you." ”
Liu Han was stunned, what Gu Wei said was the truth, he was the specific executor of the new tax system, so naturally he couldn't sit in Yangzhou Mansion, he had to go down to see and grasp the specific situation.
"When did you decide," he asked with a frown, a little unhappy: "If you want to go down, what to do in terms of security, these must be arranged in advance!"
The more Liu Han spoke, the more unhappy he became, and Gu Wei hurriedly said, "Isn't this a discussion with you, isn't there still two days." ”
"How many people are you going to want?" Liu Han asked, Gu Wei thought for a while and replied, "It's enough to let Nandu Lieutenant bring a hundred people." ”
"A hundred?" Liu Han said, shaking his head slightly: "It's not enough, there must be fifty people around you at any time, although the masters of Jiangnan are not as good as God, there are still a lot, only Lu Yu and Zhang's three families, there are seven or eight grandmaster masters in the network, and there are more than five thousand private soldiers in the three families, and how much power is hidden in secret, no one knows, you go down this time and bring three hundred people." ”
"Three hundred?" Gu Wei frowned slightly: "There are only two hundred people left in the city." ”
"It's a lot, there are still county soldiers in this city, to be honest, if there is a big prison to manage, I would be too many for two hundred, but the cultivation of Nandu Lieutenant is not the eighth grade or the ninth grade of the martial artist, and to deal with the master of the grandmaster, I'm afraid it is still, or, my lord, or I will accompany you, how about it?"
"That's not necessary," Gu Wei was very confident: "Killing me Gu Wei alone, how can you stop the imperial court's determination to implement a new tax system." ”
Then he added: "You still have to preside over the recruitment, and the scholars who come still have to be trained, people, your task is not light." ”
Liu Han thought for a while, and sighed helplessly: "Cheng, so be it, but let me explain first, you may not be satisfied with the person I picked." ”
"It's okay," Gu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to be very satisfied with Liu Han's attitude: "In addition to recruiting talents, Lord Ju, you have to pay more attention, he is not in good health...."
"Don't worry, no one will hurt Lord Ju. Liu Han laughed meaningfully.
Gu Wei nodded slightly: "Also, Lord Ju is not in good health, don't bother him with small things, besides, if there is any decree of the imperial court, please convey it to me as soon as possible." ”
"That's nature. Liu Han agreed, but he felt a little uncomfortable, so he smiled and said: "How about my mother-in-law, don't worry, since I promised you, I will do my best." ”
"Okay, then please. Gu Wei couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and hugged his fist at Liu Han, who shook his head at him and turned to leave.
Mo Qi came to his senses at this time, wanted to understand what was happening, frowned at Liu Han's back, and asked puzzledly: "The matter of recruiting talents is very important, can he?"
"Rest assured, the power of the people is greater than we imagined. Gu Wei smiled and said.
Mo Qi was full of questions, but seeing that Gu Wei was very confident, he couldn't ask anything more, so he had to hide his doubts in his stomach.
--------------------------------------------
Chang'an, in the palace of the king of Qin.
King Qin looked at the military reports from Saibei and Liangzhou, his brows were furrowed, since the beginning of spring, the grain and silver sent from the imperial capital have tripled compared with previous years, but it still can't meet the needs of the war.
The war in Yongbei was temporarily subsided, and the central Xianbei moved to the east under the oppression of the western Tuoba tribe, and the Tuoba tribe occupied a large area of the grassland of the central Xianbei, temporarily stopped the pursuit, and turned to the Great Jin to show goodwill.
Compared with the wooden saucer and deer tribes in Xianbei in the central part of the country, the relationship between the Tuoba tribe and the Great Jin is much better, but the King of Qin still can't believe them, the current king of the Tuoba Department is Tuoba Ping, and the old king Tuoba Feng is more stable, although he is also expanding his power, but he is still afraid of the reaction of the Great Jin, but after this Tuoba Ping ascended the throne, he did not have the stability of the old king Tuoba Feng, and he was more aggressive, and he was less afraid of the Great Jin.
What the king of Qin was most worried about was that if these Xianbei people suddenly made peace and turned to attack the Great Jin, echoing the Tubo who were attacking Liangzhou, then the Great Jin would be in big trouble.
With the strength of the two states of Yongliang, it is okay to deal with one side, but if the two join forces, it will be difficult for the two states of Yongliang to resist.
Xi Feng walked quickly to the door and reported inside, the King of Qin woke up from his contemplation and told him to go in, and Xi Feng sent a military newspaper with five feathers pasted on it.
Eight hundred miles of urgency, 100,000 urgent!
King Qin hurriedly tore open the seal, it was an urgent report from Liangzhou, he only read two lines and ordered: "Go and ask Mr. Bai and Mr. Luan to come over." ”
Xi Feng promised, turned around and went out, and after a while, Bai Pu and Luan Xuan came over, during this time, they didn't go back, they stayed in the palace and worked, and they came over quickly after receiving the news.
"The mouth of the Yellow Pond is broken!"
King Qin's first sentence surprised the two of them, and the two of them hurriedly picked up the urgent report handed by King Qin, and quickly read it at a glance.
The urgent report was sent by Duanmuzheng, and Huangchikou is a small pass in the southwest of Liangzhou, and why is there only 300 people in the state army stationed in 300 people in peacetime? The reason is the terrain of Huangchikou.
Huangchikou is very peculiar, the left side outside the pass is the swamp, the right side is the grassland, there is a river called Baishui that flows through the front of the pass, the grassland is more than ten miles past, it is the towering and mysterious Bayan Boge Mountain, the local herdsmen say that there are gods living on the mountain, from the mountainside to the top of the mountain, the snow is covered all the year round, not to mention the people, even the birds can not fly.
Therefore, this Huangchikou has never been the focus of defense, usually there are only more than 100 people in this pass, and Duanmu is in Tubo after the border, and 200 people have been added.
Unexpectedly, it was this seemingly foolproof pass that was lost.
Duanmu did not say clearly in the urgent report how many Tubo troops had fallen, and he didn't figure it out, only saying that there were 3,000 to 5,000 Tubo troops who crossed Bayanboge Mountain and attacked Huangchikou during the Li Min, most of the defenders of Huangchikou were killed, and only seven people fled back.
Duanmu Zheng also said in the report that the follow-up offensive target of the Tibetan army was still being judged, and he had already dispatched Atletico Madrid's troops to intercept it, so as to prevent the Tibetan army from inserting behind Luoyan Pass.
"Rhinoblade!"
King Qin looked at the map, shouted loudly without raising his head, and Xi Feng walked in quickly.
"Lord Wang!"
"Let's see, what will this Tibetan man do next?"
Xi Feng past, looking at the map, Liangzhou is vast and sparsely populated, about fifty miles from the mouth of the Yellow Pond is the West Onion Canyon, through the West Onion Canyon, the Tubo people can go north, they will threaten the side of Luoyan Pass, if they go south, they can go straight to Guzang, if they go east, they can occupy Lingqu County, so they can cut off the logistics and transportation line of Huangsha Pass, and then threaten the Liangbei Heavy Town Dingqiang County.
"If you change the ministers, the ministers will choose Luoyanguan," Xi Feng's finger moved on the map, and said in a firm tone: "Although the Tubo people have conquered Huangchikou, but those who can cross Bayan Boda Mountain must not have many troops, three thousand five thousand, I am afraid that it is too many, and the ministers estimate that it is about one thousand people."
Bayan Boda Mountain, the mountain is majestic, to climb over this mountain, there is definitely not much grain and grass that can be carried, at most it is to carry with them, they must meet with the main force of Tubo outside Luoyan Pass as soon as possible, otherwise in a few days, this army will be wiped out by the Liangzhou army. ”
King Qin looked at the map and nodded: "Yes, there can't be too many people in Tubo, Duanmu is a little panicked, he should calm down." ”
"Duanmu Zheng is really wrong, he shouldn't have transferred Atletico Ma's troops, Atletico Ma's troops are only 5,000 people in total, it is very difficult to encircle and suppress this 1,000 to 2,000 Tubo army, he should now order Ma Jing to stick to Luoyan Pass, hold Guzang and Lingqu County, and then transfer Qiuge's black panther to chase and kill this Tubo army. ”
"Draw the black panther? The black panther is in Huangsha Pass, hundreds of miles. Luan Xuan asked puzzled.
"Yes, although the number of this Tubo army is not very large, but it is definitely the elite of the selection, the county soldiers led by Ma Jing, only 5,000 people, he is afraid to leave two to three thousand people in Luoyan Pass, the remaining 2,000 or so troops, and this thousand or so enemies who are put to death, whether they can win, the minister feels difficult, and what is more fatal is that if Ma Jing is defeated, Luoyan Pass is likely to collapse, and Tubo will open a gap. ”
When King Qin heard this, he immediately got up and said hurriedly: "Send a letter to Duanmu Zheng immediately, the Atletico troops in Luoyan Pass must not move, immediately dispatch the Qiuge Black Panther, return in the starry night, and chase down this Tubo people." ”
"I'm afraid it's too late. Xi Feng sighed and clenched his fists: "Lord Wang, the minister is willing to lead the army to Liangzhou." ”
"What if you're leaving, Yongbei? Chang'an won't be empty!" Luan Xuan said.
"It's okay!" Xi Feng's expression was resolute: "I can secretly lead the army to go for a period of one month, and I will come back after repelling the Tubo people, although Chang'an is empty, but the Xianbei people can't beat Chang'an for the time being, the prince, the minister asks for life, and the minister will lead three thousand eagle guards to fight." ”
King Qin was silent for a while, and was about to speak, when a long cry came from outside:
"Report .........!"
The faces of the four people in the room changed sharply, Luan Xuan's face was pale, and Bai Pu sighed softly.
Xi Feng walked out quickly, and after a while, he returned, presenting a military report to the King of Qin, with five feathers pasted on it.
"The Wild Goose Pass is lost. King Qin's face turned pale: "Duanmu is this stupid!"
Luan Xuan picked up the military report, and sure enough, as Xi Feng expected, Ma Jing was defeated, two thousand men and horses lost more than a thousand, and finally fled with him to Guzang only three hundred people, after the defenders of Luoyan Pass heard about it, the army's heart was shaken, and it was quickly defeated, and the remaining less than 1,000 people fled to Guzang, Guzang is now closed with four gates, and Duanmu Zheng has ordered Fang Jin's department to return to help immediately.
Rhino Feng stared at the map, didn't seem to hear it, Luan Xuan also looked at the map, but he couldn't understand it, King Qin didn't urge, he looked at the banner hanging on the wall with a solemn expression, there were only two words on it: "Think twice"
Think before, think after, think side;
Thinking of progress, thinking of retreat, thinking of danger;
Look before you leap.
"Lord Wang, the matter in Liangzhou is complicated," Xi Feng raised his head and said: "I'm afraid that the three thousand eagle guards are not enough, Duanmu is in chaos, how many Tubo people have fallen, who is leading the troops, the direction of action, nothing is clear, how this battle was fought!"
"Stop complaining, talk about your judgment and countermeasures. King Qin looked at the three thoughts on the wall and said calmly.
Xi Feng was the captain of the Ying Ling guard of the King of Qin, and he was also his important military staff, and in terms of combat, the King of Qin valued his opinions very much.
Xi Feng, Luan Xuan, the most relied on civil and military officials under the command of King Qin.
"It's hard to judge," Xi Feng sighed: "What I hope most is for them to attack Guzang, and the last thing I want is for them to make a detour to cross the Baqu River and attack Huangsha Pass, so that they can open the pass and obtain logistical support; ”
"Gu Zang is empty, why do you still hope the most?" Luan Xuan frowned, very puzzled.
"Although the strength of Guzang is small, but the private soldiers of the various gates in the city, plus the people, even if they are temporary, they can make up seven or eight thousand people, Guzang is precipitous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if the Tubo people attack Guzang, even if there are fifty or sixty thousand people, Duanmuzheng can also hold for two or three months. ”
"The people are okay too? Tubo is a soldier of tigers and wolves, brave and good at fighting. Luan Xuan was still worried.
"Okay. Xi Feng's tone was very affirmative.
"The people of Liangzhou are fierce, and children in their teens can carry knives into battle. King Qin explained for Xi Feng: "There are more than 100,000 people in Guzang City, and there are also private soldiers of the gate lord's manor outside the city, gathering seven or eight thousand troops, there is no problem." ”
Luan Xuan realized that the two states of Yongliang are completely different from the mainland, and the people are really fierce and good at fighting.
"Lord Wang, what we have to do now is to abandon Huangsha Pass, order the defenders of Huangsha Pass to retreat to Sanjiangkou, rely on the terrain of Sanjiangkou, and hold on to wait for help. ”
"But what if the Tubo people don't attack the mouth of the three rivers?"
"If Tubo does not attack Sanjiangkou, then Sanjiangkou is a thorn stuck in his throat, and the defenders can attack at any time to cut off their grain routes, so that the logistics supply of the Tubo army can only go to Luoyanguan, and the road to Luoyanguan is hundreds of miles away, and the road outside the pass is not smooth, which will aggravate the logistical difficulties of the Tubo army. ”
Xi Feng explained all the way, and at the same time outlined the entire strategy of the first war against Tibet.
"Lord Wang, I want 20,000 troops, two months at most. 2k reading network
