Governor please stay

Gentle Township, Hero Tomb.Staying too comfortably in Shouyang's mansion, Liu Yishou secretly reminded himself that Qingxu's war is not over yet, both sides are accumulating strength to prepare for a decisive battle, now is definitely not the time to relax.

So on the second day in Shouyang, Liu Yishou called Yang Zhong, Hu Luxian, Yang Min, Mao Xi, Hu Sengyou and others to the study of the mansion to discuss important matters.

On the one hand, there is a large shortage of food and grass in Nanyang this year, and there are many victims. The surrounding areas of Shouyang need to supply food and grass and resettle the victims, and the workload is still quite large.If you don't think of a way to allocate resources, you will be stretched.

On the other hand, Qingxu's battle situation is currently in a state of terror balance. Since Pengcheng is relatively close to the important town of Nanliang, and Liu Yishou has been operating in the surrounding area for many years, Gao Aocao is not sure that he can capture it.

Therefore, Yu Wentai estimated that the enemy's focus should be to attack Xiapi violently and surround the points for reinforcements!Attract the troops around Pengcheng to Xiapi and destroy them.Finally, let's clean up the situation in Pengcheng.

Gao Aocao was in charge of capturing Picheng, and Hu Luguang was in charge of reinforcements, which was more in line with their arm configuration.

Yuwentai explained the current battlefield situation and the battles that took place in the past few months in a letter to Liu Yishou. Now that the spring flood has reached the river, Hu Luguang's cavalry can't do anything. It can't be as commanding as it is in winter.

Therefore, attacking Xiapi City was almost the only choice for Wei Jun.As long as Xiapi is captured, Liang Jun's miscellaneous troops who can only defend the city and cannot fight in the field will be like isolated islands and reefs on the coast.Unplugged by Gao Aocao and the others, unable to support each other.

From the gap of Xiapi, we can go all the way to Huaiyin (Huai'an, Jiangsu) along the river, and then to the south is the swamp of Gaoyou Lake, to the Yangtze River, and across the river is Jingkou, which is enough to threaten Jingji.

As far as how far it is from Jiankang, it seems to be far away from the map, so there is nothing to worry about.However, once this road is actually passed, it will be extremely smooth, and there will be no shortage of supplies!Liu Yishou had walked this road before.

So the current battle situation is not what it seems, and it is very beneficial to Liang Jun.Now it is nothing more than the lack of troops in Wei State, and it is impossible to launch a large-scale battle.

In the letter, Yu Wentai hoped that Liu Yishou would lead his troops to rush in from the front of Henan, aiming at Suiyang, and encircling Qingxu's Wei Army regiment from the flanks to the north of Pengcheng and Xiapi, and the narrow section south of Rencheng. In the area, fight a war of annihilation.

I have to say that this idea of ​​Yuwentai is very interesting, and it almost has the intention of "complete all its achievements in one battle".After finishing this vote, Liang Jun will rush thousands of miles, press the whole line, and then fight Wei Jun, I am afraid it will be in Xingyang!
But Li Yuanzhong, Feng Longzhi and others in Henan are so easy to talk, will Liu Yishou bring elite soldiers to suddenly become a fool?

Liu Yishou felt that Yu Wentai was getting carried away, or thinking too much.

Yu Wentai must think that Liang Guo occupied Nanyang, Wei Guo lost part of the battlefield at the border between the two countries, Gao Huan took jujube pills, and now it is time for a strategic decisive battle.

And now it happened to be a critical moment when Gao Huan lost his Nanyang flank, and his direct soldiers and horses were still in Jinzhou! …

Liang Jun seems to have taken advantage of the location, on the surface it seems so.

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Yishou let out a long sigh, and circulated the letter he had just opened for everyone to check.For a while, the study was extremely quiet, and even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.

"Before I get down to business, let me say something off topic."

Liu Yishou cleared his throat and asked:

"One day, I was walking with all of you, intending to cross the desert and go to Rouran Royal Court. However, we encountered bandits on the way, and we lost all our money, food and drink, and there was no prey to hunt along the way. I can't walk to the villages and towns I passed by when I came here.

Just like that, one day we were too hungry to walk, and when our old eyes were dim, we all looked at Zun Yan (Yang Min's name), who was fat and hearty, by our side. As long as we ate him, we would surely be able to live for a few more days.

How do you choose? "

Didn't expect it to be such a question!
Everyone looked at Yang Min with strange eyes.This little fat man must be much better off eating him than eating other people, if he has to eat one person to survive.

"In order to put gold on our own face, I proposed that everyone raise their hands to vote, and everyone would agree to raise their hands. So we ate Zunyan, so we can feel at ease. When we come back after escape, everyone should not know about it." He just sent more money to Zunyan's family as compensation, and told his family that he died of illness.

Does anyone object to my statement? "

No one spoke, Liu Yishou's question was too dark, what else could they say?This almost hits an undeniable pain point in human nature.

"For another example, I think that Zunyan is good at government affairs, and he is my right-hand man. Although he is indeed a bit more fleshy than others, it is too much to lose if he is eaten. It is better to eat Mao Xi. Anyway, Mao Xi has a low position. It doesn't matter to him either.

If this is the case, will everyone unanimously recommend Mao Xi as the dish? "

Liu Yishou asked bluntly.

"My lord, what exactly do you want to say?"

Finally someone couldn't help it, Hu Luxian asked in a low voice.

"I want to tell you that now, or someday in the future, we have become superiors and carnivores, and we must not want to cut off the lives and interests of others, especially subordinates, colleagues, and low-level people.

When you punish others, you will feel very happy and feel that it doesn't matter.When it is your turn to be cut off by others in the future, it may not be so comfortable.

The kind of group that can sacrifice its members at will is not worthy of allegiance, and there is no sincerity and unity at all.Gentlemen, if you want to achieve great things, you must put publicity first and selfishness second.The behavior of sacrificing and sacrificing your colleagues at every turn is not advisable, you should all take warning.Hello everyone is really good. "

Liu Yishou said earnestly.

"We will bear in mind our lord's teachings." All the people agreed in unison, bowing to Liu Yishou with sincere admiration.

The reason why Liu Yishou has such a high prestige and speaks his mind in the group, apart from his far-reaching strategic vision, has something to do with his being transparent, open-minded, and profound in thinking.

Except for him, no one can restrain these arrogant soldiers and intelligent people from all corners of the country. …

"It was just gossip just now. Let's talk about business. What do you think of the current situation?" Liu Yishou asked with a smile.

Now [-] elite soldiers have returned from Nanyang to Shouyang. In terms of military strength, it is not very sufficient.As for Gao Huan, there is no sign of increasing troops yet.

However, once you decide to enter the arena, you have to consider the factor of Wei Guo's continuous reinforcements.

"My lord, Yu Wentai's suggestion is not feasible. At least one hundred thousand soldiers and horses are required to spread out on the front line of Henan, and it is feasible to advance gradually. If the army goes deep alone, the Wei army will have more soldiers, and the food and grass will not be guaranteed."

Yang Zhong said in a deep voice.

Although this is very embarrassing to Yu Wentai, but he can't do it if he doesn't say it, he can't jump into the pit by himself!

"What do you think?"

Liu Yishou looked at Wang Wei and asked.

"We have to take care of Nanyang, but also deploy a large number of soldiers and horses on the front line of Henan to ensure the front line. It's really...not advisable."

Wang Wei shook his head. He even thought that Yu Wentai proposed this strategy with evil intentions!
"What does Zun Yan think?"

Liu Yishou looked at Yang Min and asked.

Fatty quickly shook his head and said: "My lord, the grain and grass here in Shouyang are not endless, and this year we will supply Nanyang. From the political point of view, the lord has won Nanyang, and his prestige has greatly increased. It is time to win the hearts of the people in the country. It is really inconvenient to fight on a large scale.

If it is necessary to deploy a large army in Henan, I am afraid that Shouyang's food and grass will be given priority to supply military supplies. "

Ancient times are not modern, in fact the pace of life is very slow.Liu Yishou captured Nanyang, and the population has indeed increased a lot, but these people are disaster victims, and Nanyang cannot grow food this year. It can be said that Liang Guo's situation this year is very delicate.

Seeing that Mao Xi seemed to have something to say, Liu Yishou said softly, "What you just said was just a joke. If people cannibalize people, wouldn't they be like animals? You don't have to think too much about it."

Mao Xi was taken aback for a moment, and then explained: "My lord, I didn't think about that, I really have something important to say."

"Then tell me."

"Good lord, actually, the turning point in Qingxu's previous battle was when Yang Yaren was transferred to Surabaya to confront the Wei army. The front of the army began to collapse from east to west."

Mao Xi mentioned details that were not mentioned in Yu Wentai's letter.

At that time, Liang Jun and Wei Jun were facing each other in a section of Surabaya from north to south, with the river course as the natural boundary, and the battle line was arc-shaped.If there is no external force to intervene, this battle line will probably remain stable until Liu Yishou brings troops to support.

"It was Hu Luguang from the Hu Lu Department who led the cavalry to attack from the side and rear, which caused the Yuwen Governor's battle line to collapse."

Mao Xi glanced at Hu Luxian thoughtfully.

Hu Luguang is the elder brother of Hu Luxian, with the same father and mother.Now each is their own master, maybe there will be a bloody fight.

"King Shaqiu, I heard that many people under Gao Huan's command will kill you and hurry up. I plan to organize those who are good at shooting in the army to form an independent army, and you will be the commander. Why don't you just keep Shouyang and just choose him?" Warriors, train sharp soldiers. Temporarily avoid the limelight."

Liu Yishou arranged for Hu Luxian with one word.

Hu Luxian heaved a sigh of relief, if he wanted to fight against Qingxu this time, he would definitely face his elder brother Hu Luguang.Brothers killing each other is a human tragedy.Liu Yishou's move can be regarded as leaving a way out for Hu Luxian, lest he bite the bullet and meet Hu Luguang in battle. …

"Follow your lord's orders."

Hu Luxian said softly.

"Then, what are your plans?"

Liu Yishou asked Mao Xidao.

"Du Luguang can break through from Beihai County, and we can also break through from Beihai County. The subordinates think that if they directly support the governor of Yuwen, it will be like adding fuel, and it will not have the final effect.

You need to insert a knife behind the enemy's side. "

Mao Xi cupped his hands excitedly and said.

Although he was an ignorant soldier, he had thought about this move for a long time and felt that it seemed to be the case.Before Chen Qingzhi made his debut, wasn't he just a useless person who played chess with Xiao Yan?
Liu Yishou thought for a while but didn't speak. He turned his head to look at Yang Zhong and asked, "You have led your troops to detour behind the enemy's rear many times, and you have made great achievements in battle. What do you think of Mao Xi's words?"

Everyone looked at Yang Zhong.

Mao Xi said a lot, no matter what the strategy is, there is one thing that everyone present agrees with.

Yuwentai and Gao Aocao confronted each other, and the battle line had been stabilized. No matter how many troops Liu Yishou brought, going to support Yuwentai was of little significance. It was just that the troops on this side of the front line were stronger and could not make a final decision. .

This is the reason why the weather is more important than the right place, and the right place is more important than the harmony of people.

The army was surrounded by people in the canyon and could not advance or retreat, and the enemy set fire to it. No matter how hard these people worked together, it would not help.What Mencius said, "The weather is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the harmony of people" has another meaning.

To break the situation, you need an army to break into the confrontation and change the overall situation in one fell swoop. This is the way to win.

The question is, who leads the army, how many troops to lead, where to break in, and how to end up in the end!
The difficulty lies in these details.

"My lord, the general thinks that this move is not to say that it can't be done, but to go deep alone and requires the cooperation of other troops."

Yang Zhong said with some embarrassment.

A real man, if he is not really forced to, who would say he can't do it?
But the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and everything changes rapidly.If you don't pay attention to the details, it is very likely that the soldiers under your command will be dragged down. This is "one general who is incompetent and exhausts the whole army to death". Breaking into the enemy's rear and making a final decision is easy to say, but in fact it is killing your life with your head on your belt.

The last time everything went well in Nanyang, it was because many disaster victims were willing to lead the way and crushed Gao Yue in terms of intelligence.There is no similar good thing in this expedition to Qingxu.

"You all go down and think about it, let me think about it."

Liu Yishou is not in a hurry, there is still a lot of time.I am waiting for an opportunity here, but Gao Aocao is actually waiting for an opportunity.

Before the time is ripe, neither side will act rashly.

After everyone left, only Wang Wei stayed.

"This time I came back to let you spend more time with the wife at home. How can you come to my place on time to order?"

Liu Yishou made fun of Wang Weidao.

"No, my lord, a major event has happened in the north. The Yuan family clan established by Gao Huan is named Yuan Long, not the descendant of Emperor Xiaowen. He died of a sudden illness recently, and Gao Huan has returned from Jinzhou to Yecheng for the funeral. Yuanxiu became emperor, and betrothed the eldest daughter to Yuanxiu as empress."

Wang Wei told Liu Yishou an unexpected but reasonable news.

Liu Yishou didn't think that Yuen Long really "died from a sudden illness", but that Gao Huan had wanted to kill him for a long time, and now it's just the right time!
Only by killing Yuan Long can the Yuan clan in Luoyang, Yecheng and other places understand who is the boss of Wei State!

Yuen Long is too old, Gao Huan definitely cannot marry his daughter to him.But Yuan Xiu is different. First, he is the grandson of Emperor Xiaowen, and second, he is relatively young and has a weird personality, which makes him unpopular.

Is there a more appropriate puppet than this?

Gao Huan's move can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"so what?"

"I feel that Gao Huan is likely to take advantage of the new emperor's enthronement to gather the military power of the Hebei family, and even use the name of attacking Qingxu to do this.

The lord, don't think that everything will be fine after defeating Gao Aocao. "

Wang Wei's warning was very organized and even fit Gao Huan's personality.Liu Yishou felt that if he was Gao Huan, he would definitely take this opportunity to let soldiers from the Hebei family, such as Feng Longzhi, Li Yuanzhong and others lead troops south to Qingxu.

Therefore, Gao Aocao is likely to have reinforcements, which is a big problem worthy of vigilance.

"It seems that we still have to go to Jiankang. If Liang Guo's soldiers and horses are not mobilized, this drama will not be easy to sing."

Liu Yishou sighed softly, he actually didn't want to fight Gao Huan in Qingxu.But he also understands that the enemy will not act according to his will, and all victories need to be achieved through his own efforts.
