Chapter 365: I Also Seek War (1st Update)
After Yelu Chuxiong finished speaking, Old Monk Li said angrily: "Yelu Chuxiong, although you don't talk about the war, you are just fiddling with some numbers to intimidate us, are you just bullying us who don't know the soldiers?" The consumption of grain and grass you calculated was needed for the war, but you forgot, we are all cavalry, fast horses and whips, it took months of hard work there, we can recruit people along the way, and there is no need for so much loss, as long as we break through the Shanhaiguan, we can eat the enemy country, the territory of the Great Song Dynasty is a rich land, how can there be no grain and grass, at that time, why care about what grain and grass consumption, I can't say that we can also loot!"
Old monk Li's attention is naturally good, but Yelu Chuxiong gently raised his eyelids, and said: "Although the Great Wall is rich and fruitful, there are many Wu forts, and these grains and grasses are scattered in the Wu forts, if they are uprooted one by one, it will be extremely difficult, even if they are uprooted, the grain and grass will be burned!"
"Yelu Chuxiong is right, Yanjing is a huge barracks, there are many fang cities, as long as the fang gate is blocked, it is a Wu fort, even if we besiege Yanjing, we will not get any benefits!"
Wanyan Heda walked out of the corner, and he signed a collegial agreement with Yelu Chuxiong, which was the main peace faction, so he was naturally reluctant to send troops, especially the loss of taxes and grain and grass that they had just gathered. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Haoran Daoist took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that it is still necessary to think in the long run, and now we must unite with Western Xia and send troops to conquer Goguryeo at the same time, as long as we conquer Goguryeo, we can get Goryeo's grain and grass, soldiers, and we can also take the opportunity to train our troops and enhance the strength of our army." ”
Haoran Taoist thought for a while, and was about to transfer the target to Goryeo, Wanyan Heda also stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks this idea is good, Goryeo and the Liao people have fought several times, and the strength has been almost consumed. ”
Hearing everyone's words, Wanyan Wu Qimai's expression was a little strange, and after pondering slightly, he nodded.
At the same time, Yue Fei in Shanhaiguan sat on the main case, behind him was a map of the Great Wall inside and outside, and in the two rows below Yue Fei, the generals at all levels were also wearing helmets and armor, looking at Yue Fei with a happy face.
Looking at these generals, Yue Fei couldn't help but say: "The generals no longer train at each checkpoint to build the city, and all of them come to Ben Shuai, what's the big deal?"
Yue Fei's right-hand man Yang Zaixing said to Yue Fei with a happy expression: "General, now Your Majesty is overjoyed, we should do something to celebrate Your Majesty, our big guy wants to send troops to Qinglong Town, and then occupy Kuancheng, so that we can connect with Chengde, and even deter the Jurchens." ”
Yang Zaixing said his thoughts with a happy expression, Xu Qing also got up and said to Yue Fei: "General, we have already investigated, although the Jurchens have greatly increased their strength after the offensive reform, but their strength is limited, these soldiers and horses are all integrated by tribal soldiers, and there is some resentment in the heart of the court of the Jin people, and the old lord is in our hearts, and the combat effectiveness must not be strong, as long as we send troops quickly, it is enough to wipe out the defenders of Qinglong Town, and even win over some of the chiefs of the Jurchen nobles, they have been forcibly deprived of their power and soldiers and horses, and they are resentful in their hearts, it is a good time!"
"General, Wu Jie, Tie Xing and Zhao Long have made great contributions in the Western Xia, and only by making contributions to the Jurchen battles in Shanhaiguan can we gain His Majesty's attention, and it is also the greatest congratulatory gift for His Majesty's concubine!" Yang Zaixing agitated, and the generals around him were also full of anticipation.
It's just that Yue Fei's face was steady, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes, his eyes looked at these generals, and after coughing lightly, Niu Gao on the side understood, and couldn't help laughing: "Brothers, the Governor's Mansion has issued an edict, the wedding is extremely extreme, and it is strictly forbidden to use swords and soldiers, even if we are willing to send troops, the bachelors in Shanhaiguan and the Zhizhou who is in charge of grain and grass will not agree, are you sure to convince these people!"
After Niu Gao finished speaking, everyone's excitement and expectation were like being poured a basin of cold water, and everyone couldn't help but smile bitterly, and they all understood in their hearts that Niu Gao's opinion was the opinion of the general.
Everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, knowing that General Yue acted the most steadily and cautiously, and would not enter the army alone.
Yue Fei looked at these people's dejected appearances, got up and smiled and reassured: "Why should you be disappointed, we are stationed at Shanhaiguan, are you still afraid that there will be no war, the Jurchen wolf ambition, the heart of China will not die, we are here to train our soldiers, sooner or later we will march and fight with the Jurchens." ”
Speaking of this, Yue Fei continued to smile and said: "Your Majesty's concubine is to show peace to the world, make every effort to build internal affairs, and continue to use strength to pacify the Western Xia and Jurchens in one fell swoop. ”
"We listen to the orders of the generals!" Yang Zaixing and the others had to laugh, in their hearts they thought that the Jurchens were just fat meat close at hand, but the military orders had to be obeyed.
When everyone was unhappy, Yang Zaixing couldn't help muttering: "If only these Jurchen Tartars were stupid enough to send troops on their own, we could have a legitimate battle." ”
As soon as Yang Zaixing's words came out, everyone's ears were sharp, and they naturally heard it clearly, and couldn't help laughing: "If that's the case, then it's good, we can also send a big congratulatory gift to Your Majesty." ”
"Haha, what you brothers said is right, we also have to take precautions, if some Jurchens can't think about it, they send troops!"
Everyone laughed, and Yue Fei also smiled: "You guys go back to the jurisdiction, be careful, if the Jurchens come to attack, you don't have to report it, you can attack, but if you go out without authorization, the handsome can be spared, and those bachelors are afraid that they can't be spared." ”
"The general is right, the status of our warriors is not what it used to be, those big turbans are not pleasant to look at, don't be guilty of it in their hands. Niu Gao took over the topic and smiled and admonished.
"Don't worry, Dashuai, we will definitely guard the checkpoint with peace of mind!" The generals gave their orders and left a little disappointed.
Seeing everyone leaving, Yue Fei left Niu Gao and said: "The soldiers are eager to fight, and the army can have the heart, but now the policy of the imperial court is to focus on peace, manage the Hetao area, and turn it into a bridgehead for the Great Song Dynasty to contain and attack the north, and this side can only hold and build the Great Wall, I think Your Majesty is particularly concerned about the construction of the Great Wall!"
Hearing Yue Fei's words, Niu Gao also said with a solemn face: "Yes, not only Your Majesty, but also the important ministers of the imperial court are particularly concerned about the Great Wall. ”
Yue Fei nodded: "You go down and talk more to your brothers, lest they misunderstand or provoke a war without authorization." (To be continued.) )
