Chapter 701: Prisoner, I Won't Let It Go!
Gong Lince's face gradually sank, and it seemed that he was complaining, but he felt first-hand what it means to be an arrogant soldier.
This group of people actually dared to ignore the imperial court supported by the three major factions in front of him, to some extent, does it also mean not to take the three major factions in their eyes?
"How many battles have you won, and no one is in your eyes at first?" Gong Lince said coldly, instantly suppressing the dissatisfaction in the tent.
There was silence in the Chinese military tent, Su Qitong and Zhang Hu, you look at me, I look at you, and they all quietly glanced at Meng Shanming, who was in a wheelchair.
"Go down both of you. Meng Shanming waved his hand.
Zhang Hu and Su Qitong retreated together.
Luo Da'an and Lu Zheng stood behind the wheelchair on the left and right, and Meng Shanming's gaze and Gong Lince's gaze confronted.
In the end, Gong Lince broke the calm, "Meng Shuai, I understand everyone's feelings, although the decision of the imperial court is selfish, it is also good for everyone." If you want to be angry, Meng Shuai cut off the ears of 600,000 captives with an order, even if these people are put back, those who are missing ears are a shame for the Song State, and it can be said that they are angry. Zhang Hu, they are all your old subordinates, and now they are also under you, they will listen to you, and I hope that Meng Shuai will let them understand more. ”
Meng Shanming's expression was calm, and he said word by word: "Prisoner, I won't let go!"
Gong Lince's eyes narrowed suddenly, "Meng Shuai, for the sake of the overall situation, if you continue to fight like this, Yan Guo will not be able to gain any benefits, it will only be a defeat with Song Guo, and it will not be good for Nanzhou, it is a good thing to be able to negotiate peace!"
Meng Shanming: "It's not time for peace talks yet. ”
Gong Lince sighed, although he didn't agree, he said politely: "I wish to hear Meng Shuai's high opinion." ”
Meng Shanming: "Now for peace talks, will the main force of the three million Song army led by Luo Zhao smoothly withdraw to the Song State? and return the 600,000 elites to the Song State, has the head of the palace ever thought about this consequence?"
As soon as these words came out, he faintly woke up a little bit in Gong Lince's heart, and subconsciously frowned slightly.
Meng Shanming continued: "After returning the 600,000 elites and allowing the 3 million main forces to withdraw smoothly, the strength loss of the Song State is actually not large, but it has only suffered heavy losses in local operations. I have fought all my life, and Zhao State, South Korea, Song State have all fought against each other, I know the importance of national strength to the war, the national strength of the Song State is still there, far stronger than the Great Yan, at any time can accumulate the materials of the First World War, if the Song State retains enough elite soldiers, from the perspective of me, the Yan State soldiers, it will be a huge threat to my Dayan, which I cannot tolerate!"
"Gong Master, this battle of the Song State is violent, but it ends up lifting a stone and hitting themselves in the foot, do you think they will give up? Especially under the condition of retaining the national strength and troops, can they give up? In my opinion, if they agree to the negotiation conditions of the imperial court and withdraw their troops, they are only forced by the temporary situation to make a temporary strategic retreat in order to save the unfavorable situation! The loss of national strength and troops is not large, and it is still far stronger than that of Dayan, do you think they will really bow their heads and admit defeat and swallow this breath of anger?"
"Once they complete the strategic retreat and regain their foothold, they will inevitably attack our Yan Kingdom again! This is not speculation, but the current situation of Great Yan is here, and they have been tossed into this way, too weak, and too easy to deceive, just like a three-year-old child, it is difficult for the people and horses of Yan Kingdom to even raise basic army fighting food and grass in the country, who else can you fight if you don't take this opportunity to fight?"
"Once the Song Kingdom makes a comeback, it will be difficult to re-attack the Dongyu River, does the head of the palace think that there can still be such an opportunity? No, it is even difficult to reorganize the people and horses, the current opportunity will not be there again, it will be useless who will command the army to fight at that time, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and Dayan is doomed to perish!"
"And South Korea! Song State withdrew, Yan State was tossed to such a weak point, as soon as Song State withdrew, it should be South Korea's turn to launch an attack on Dayan. After South Korea launched an attack, even if Song Guo did not strike immediately, he would wait until South Korea was almost done to attack Yan again, and Song Guo paid such a big price, and it was impossible to sit idly by and watch the South Korean family pick up the cheap. ”
Gong Lince, who listened to the remarks, was shocked, and asked after a period of silence: "If we continue to fight, we can avoid South Korea from sending troops?"
South Korea's coach Kim Jue, I have fought with him, and I know that this person is good at forbearance, good at seizing the best opportunity to attack, and he will not easily attack if he is not sure, which is also the reason why the South Koreans have not made a move against Dayan for a long time. Shao Dengyun still has a hand in the war, with him sitting in Beizhou, Jin Jue will be afraid, I guess Jin Jue is unwilling to clash head-on with the heavy troops gathered in Beizhou unless he has to. He was waiting, and he was waiting for the best opportunity to attack. ”
"Can't let him keep an eye on Dayan, you have to attract his attention to Song Kingdom. The current situation is a great opportunity, Luo Zhao is young and vigorous, greedy and fast, and has created a period of great strategic opportunity for my Dayan, and our Dayan must not miss it, and we must firmly grasp it! As long as our army blocks Luo Zhao's 3 million army on the other side of the Dongyu River and cannot come back, and then stirs up chaos within the Song State, Jin Jue will definitely wave his troops and pounce on the Song State!"
Gong Lince understood what he meant, and subconsciously bowed slightly, but hesitated: "The current Yan State does not have the strength to annex the Song State, we have paid such a big price, but we have to make wedding clothes for South Korea, once South Korea annexes the Song State, I am afraid that it may not be able to accept our affection, and the big South Korea is not good for my Dayan!"
Meng Shanming: "So then is the time to really negotiate with the Song State, and now the negotiation is looking for death! Only when the Song State is disabled, the Song State is eager to protect itself, and the Song State has no way to retreat, will the results of the negotiations be implemented sincerely." If you can't win on the battlefield, you can't make people submit, and it is unrealistic to expect negotiations to make people succumb. ”
Speaking of this, he waved his hand, and Luo Daan immediately pushed the wheelchair and pushed him down in front of the map.
Gong Lince also followed him to the map.
Meng Shanming took the hand stick handed by Luo Da'an and pointed it on the map, "Both countries are weak, after the negotiation is successful, neither country wants to see the other side fall under the butcher's knife of South Korea and make itself the next ghost, so that they can unite against the common enemy." After the negotiation was successful, Yan and Song had a chance to breathe, both sides withdrew, the warring forces could be gathered to the north, and both countries could gather the most powerful forces to face South Korea in the north. ”
"After the Song State was subdued, the threat to the east and the east of the Yan State was lifted. In the northern part of the Yan State, after pacifying the Song State, you can calmly dispatch the men and horses who are fighting with the Song State to strengthen the northern defense, and under the alliance with the Song State, you can ensure that the north is worry-free. To the south is the vast sea, and the investment in naval exchanges is too great, and it is unlikely that there will be a dangerous situation in the south. In the west, Nanzhou is willing to be the western barrier of Dayan, and Dao Ye has enough influence on Zhao Jinzhou, once Zhao is in trouble, there is no need for the imperial court to greet him, and Nanzhou will take the initiative to join forces with Jinzhou to jointly defend against the enemy. ”
"This is the grand strategy that this crippled old man has drawn up for Dayan, and the three major factions can implement this strategy and temporarily solve the danger of Dayan! As long as this strategic goal can be achieved, although it seems a little fragile, it is better than nothing, and it can win a respite for Dayan, seize the time to recuperate, and accumulate national strength! When my Dayan soldiers are strong and strong, and the national strength is strong, who else dares to attack?"
Gong Lince stared at the map, recalling Meng Shanming's words in his mind, and only let out a long breath after a while.
For so many years, it was the first time that someone stood in front of him and pointed out such a comprehensive grand operational strategy from the perspective of war, and he was faintly shocked in his heart, and many things that he was forced to deal with in a hurry were also organized, and he had a clear direction of decision in his heart.
In addition to feeling deeply in his heart, he sighed again, "If Meng Shuai refuses to let go of those captives, Yan Jing is afraid that it will be really dangerous." ”
The tone that had suddenly become aggressive before was gone.
Meng Shanming: "As long as our troops are pointed to the interior of the Song Kingdom, in the face of unbearable pressure, Luo Zhao's attempt to attack Yanjing will not last long, and he will inevitably withdraw his troops! It will not take too long, only seven or eight days will be enough." If 200,000 horses can't hold it for seven or eight days, I really don't know what use it is to keep those wastes in the capital? ”
Gong Lince: "It seems that Meng Shuai insists on doing this!"
Meng Shanming: "You can dismiss me, the general of the Eastern Expedition, or you can kill me and replace me with someone to command." ”
The corners of Gong Lince's mouth twitched, he really didn't dare to move Meng Shanming now, especially after listening to Meng Shanming's words just now, he also saw the attitude of Zhang Hu and others.
He didn't say anything more, turned around and left, ready to re-communicate with Meng Xuan.
After Luo Da'an pushed Meng Shanming down to the main seat, he packed up his things and was about to transfer.
After listening to Lu Zheng for a long time, his heart was shocked, and after listening to Meng Shanming's words, it was an eye-opener, he couldn't help but walk up to Meng Shanming and try to ask, "Meng Shuai, if you really kill those 600,000 captives, I am afraid it will have a great impact on your reputation." ”
"How many years can I live? Alone, as long as the Yan State can win, what do you want to do with that reputation? Our army entered the territory of the Song State to fight, and there was a shortage of food and grass, and there was no supply, which had a great impact on morale, and I don't know what difficulties we will encounter later. When the Yan State has reached this point, there is no way to retreat, and the soldiers must work together and use all their lives to save the situation! Killing prisoners and making revenge, fearing that the Song army will retaliate, the soldiers who invade the Song State will not dare to surrender, so they can fight desperately, and the men and horses who are fighting with the Song army in China will not dare to surrender!"
