Chapter 307 The Proposal to Move the Capital

Chapter 307 The Proposal to Move the Capital
Wude seven years.

The surrounding scenes changed rapidly, and Li Hongyun's perspective first appeared in the sky.

On the northern frontier, the Turks are ready to move again.

After the Liang Dynasty initially pacified the country, the Turks changed their strategy of supporting the separatist forces and continuing to split the Central Plains, and ended up directly.

Since the fifth year of Wude, Jieli Khan has successively led more than [-] cavalry to the south to plunder.

In Li Hongyun's view, such border troubles are not much different from the invasion of the Jin people during the Qi Dynasty. Metal smelting, weapons and armor forging are not as good, but the combat power is equally powerful.

But every time people think of the Liang Dynasty, they never feel that the Turks are a powerful opponent.

Even if this is a huge force that "controls millions of strings".

Li Hongyun overlooked from a high altitude, and he had a panoramic view of the east of the river.

However, this time, the Turkic people did not continue to go to Taiyuan in the land of Hedong as before, but directly detoured to Guanzhong, and drove straight all the way to the city of Bin (bin1) state!

How similar this situation is to the Jingping Change in the Qi Dynasty.

The Turks are a mobile force of all cavalry, and they have an advantage in strength. They can completely bypass Jiancheng and directly reach the key areas of the Liang Dynasty.

Obviously, Jieli Khan decided to change his thinking this time after he failed to find a bargain in the previous two invasions of Hedong, and wanted to go directly to the city of Chang'an.

The camera quickly zooms in on the city of Chang'an in the south, and at the same time, the height is constantly decreasing.

The majestic and magnificent Chang'an City is already in sight.

It's just that there is continuous heavy rain floating over Chang'an City at this time, sometimes torrential rain, lightning and thunder, sometimes pattering, and the rain is like numb feet.

This rain will continue for a long time.

The camera continued to zoom down, and soon came to the Liang Dynasty Palace.

Liang Gaozu sat on the throne, with several close officials below him.

The prince, Liang Gaozu's fourth son King Qi, Pei Ji, Xiao Yu, Yuwen Shi and others all gathered together.

Among them, Pei Ji, Xiao Yu, and Yu Wenshi were all important officials in the court, and they played a crucial role in determining the major policies of the Liang Dynasty at this time.

Not to mention the crown prince and King Qi, their opinions carry more weight.

Liang Gaozu listened to the pattering rain outside the main hall, and the irritability on his face was fully revealed.

"The Turks have reached Binzhou!
"I know that these barbarian thieves are not trustworthy! I just concluded a peace agreement with them in November last year, and added more farmland in Bingzhou, but only a few months later, they actually changed to Guanzhong. Calling again!
"Chang'an is in danger, do you have a good plan?"

Binzhou is an ancient place name, located in the upper reaches of the Jing River.This place is only more than 200 miles away from Chang'an City. It can be regarded as the northern gateway of Chang'an, and it can be directly reached along the Jinghe River Valley.

Obviously, after realizing that there was nothing he could do about Taiyuan Jiancheng, Jieli Khan planned to take the Turks to do something big: go directly to the city of Chang'an and rob the most prosperous capital of the Liang Dynasty.

Seeing that no one spoke, Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The Turks are powerful, you can send the King of Qin to defeat the enemy."

As an important minister and counselor, Xiao Yu felt a little blush when he said such words.

Yes, what else can we do besides letting King Qin fight?

Since the fifth year of Wude, the Turks began to invade repeatedly. Which time did the Turks retreat when they got the news after King Qin sent troops?
However, Liang Gaozu was noncommittal and did not immediately adopt Xiao Yu's suggestion.

Why didn't he know that King Qin is easy to use?
However, at this time, the conflict between King Qin and the crown prince had intensified, and even he, the emperor, could clearly feel the threat from King Qin.

The master of the earthquake with high merit, there is nothing to seal.

Therefore, Liang Gaozu was absolutely unwilling to let the King of Qin step in for the repeated invasions of the Turkic people before.

Because the king of Qin made great military exploits again, the crown prince couldn't stand it anymore even when the emperor kept pulling sideways.

Liang Gaozu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Someone suggested that the reason why the Turks repeatedly invaded Guanzhong was because their children and treasures were all in Chang'an.

"Since this is the case, if Chang'an is burned down and Chang'an is no longer used as the capital, the Hu Kou will rest on their own.

"I think it makes sense, what do you think?"

Xiao Yu froze for a moment, almost couldn't believe his ears.

What did the emperor just say?
The Turks repeatedly invaded because of Chang'an's "children's wealth"?So as long as Chang'an is burned and Chang'an is no longer used as the capital, the Turkic people will not fight again?

What a crazy brain circuit this is...

A rich man is always robbed when he walks at night, and his reaction is that as long as I throw all the money in the water, then I won't be robbed?

As a normal person with a clear mind, Xiao Yu's first reaction is of course to persuade.

However, the weird atmosphere in the hall quietly gave him the upper hand in his desire to survive, and he did not speak immediately.

After a moment of silence, the prince spoke.

"Reporting to my father, I think this plan is feasible.

"Chang'an hangs on the edge of the Turkic people. Every early autumn, the Turkic people can go south along the Jing River valley. No matter whether they go to Taiyuan or Binzhou, they will cause serious disasters.

"If the capital is moved to the south, the Turks will no longer be able to target Chang'an, and we will be able to sleep in peace."

King Qi also nodded: "Father, the sons and ministers also agree with this plan."

Pei Ji was silent for a moment: "If Your Majesty has made a decision, he should implement it as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Liang Gaozu was very happy: "Well, very good, it seems that Zhuqing agrees with me.

"In that case.

"Yuwen Aiqing, you are the Minister of Zhongshu, so I will cross Nanshan Mountain to inspect the area of ​​Fan and Deng for me. If there is a place to live, I will move the capital there."

The so-called Fan Deng refers to the ruins of the ancient Fan and Deng states.That is, the Xiangyang area in later generations.

This place has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. If you go northwest, you can go to Wuguan to enter Guanzhong. To the east is the Huaihe River.

Geographically speaking, it is indeed an excellent barrier against northern nomads.

When Qi Gaozong just crossed the south, Li Gang took this place as one of the ideal places for the capital, and the reason why the Qi Dynasty was able to resist the northern barbarians for decades was also relying on the Xiangyang and Huaihe defense lines.

Its only problem is that...

Too far south.

What's more, during the Liang Dynasty, the economic center of the entire China had not yet moved south, and the economic conditions in the north were still higher than those in the south.

Although the Guanzhong Plain is small in size, it is still the most prosperous and affluent area at that time.

Moreover, the economic level of Hedong and Hebei is also higher than that of the south.

The two cities of Chang'an and Luoyang can connect Guanzhong, Hedong, Hebei, Sichuan, and the South. At that time, no matter the geographical location or the dangerous terrain, they were all the best choices for the capital.

If it moves south to the Fandeng area, although the geographical advantages will be better, the control over Guanzhong, Hedong, and Hebei will be greatly reduced.

In other words, it is basically tantamount to throwing these precious lands to the Turkic people.

Xiao Yu was completely confused.

He couldn't understand why these people all agreed to this plan.

Not to mention what to do with the burning of Chang'an and the people in Chang'an City, even if all the people can be moved away, what about other cities and villages besides Chang'an?

Without Chang'an, wouldn't the Turkic people be able to rob other places?
Moving to the Fandeng area, if you try to find the only benefit, it is that the ruling class headed by Liang Gaozong and the prince can sit back and relax, because it is almost impossible for the Turkic people to hit that place.

As for the Turks in Guanzhong, Hebei, and Hedong...

Obviously, they planned to bury their heads in the sand like ostriches and pretend not to see it.

Although Xiao Yu did not agree with this nonsense plan in his heart, he did not dare to speak when he saw that the crown prince, King Qi and other important officials did not object.

After all, Liang Gaozu was not a broad-minded emperor.

Li Hongyun, who watched all this from the perspective of God, almost suffered from high blood pressure.

If he hadn't known it in advance, he would almost have thought that what he was holding was Qi Chao's script.

The northern barbarians went south, and the ruling class's countermeasure was to move the capital...

This is both a sense of sight and a little too strong.

The Qi Dynasty was orthodox in Liang Gaozu?

Seeing that such a nonsense plan of moving the capital was really going to be implemented, hurried footsteps came from outside the hall.

The king of Qin came forward with big strides, his body was soaked by the rain.

"Father, don't move the capital!

"Rong and Di have been in trouble since ancient times. The father and emperor used the holy martial arts to prosper and glorify China. There are millions of elite soldiers and invincible conquests. At this time, it is just the Hu bandits who have invaded the frontier. Before there is a big war, they want to move the capital to avoid the edge. Don't they become universal The shame of the world, the smile of the world?

"In all dynasties, there have been brave men and women who marched north for the country. The minister is the king of Qin and leads the army for the country. It is the fault of the minister. I implore the father to send the minister to send troops. Within a few years, the leader of Jieli will surely be defeated. Dedicated to Father Emperor!
"If the military situation is unfavorable, it is not too late to move the capital."

When Liang Gaozong saw the arrival of King Qin, and heard him say that he opposed moving the capital, his expression darkened.

But after listening to King Qin's words, his face softened, and after thinking about it, he said, "Good."

Li Hongyun, who saw this scene from the perspective of God, felt a little ashamed of Liang Gaozu himself, but unexpectedly, Liang Gaozu seemed to be quite useful.

What is Shengwu Longxing and Guangyao Huaxia?

What millions of elite soldiers, invincible?
Does that matter to you?
Isn't it the king of Qin who led the army to conquer the north and south?

After deducting King Qin, there are still a few of you who can fight...

But in Liang Gaozu's view, this is obviously all his own credit.

It can also be seen from this point that King Qin is not the kind of person who takes credit for himself and has no political wisdom.

Many generals throughout the ages, after making military exploits, they immediately swelled up, and they were defiant, not even the emperor.

This kind of person's arrogance reveals that his political wisdom is too low.

And their results are often not good.

Although King Qin's meritorious service at this time has surpassed that of the founding generals of all dynasties, he is still very good at talking when facing Liang Gaozu.A flattering made Liang Gaozu comfortable, and his suggestions were naturally easier to be listened to.

However, after Liang Gaozu nodded, the prince was not happy.

"Oh, in the siege of the horse shop in the past, there were also military generals who said that a hundred thousand people could run amok in Beidi. The words of the King of Qin are so similar!"

The siege of Mapu happened at the turn of Yan and Chu.At that time, the Central Plains Dynasty sent troops to conquer Beidi, but they were besieged in Mapu Mountain, and their entire army was almost wiped out.

At that time, the decision to attack was precisely because some generals in the court thought it was enough to defeat Beidi.

The King of Qin said coldly: "Situations are different and the use of troops is different, so why does the prince compare me with those mediocre generals!

"In less than ten years, I will definitely be in Mobei, and there will be no lies!"

Liang Gaozu clapped the armrest: "Okay, you two stop arguing!

"King Qin, you and King Qi will join forces and go out to Binzhou to repel the Turks!"

Qin Wang nodded: "Yes, father!"

After all, he strode away.

King Qi and other ministers also resigned.

In the huge palace, only Liang Gaozu and the prince were left.

The prince looked gloomy and said: "Father, although the Turks have been a border trouble for a long time, they often retreat when they get bribes, so it is not a serious trouble.

"However, by doing this, the king of Qin wanted to use the name of the imperial bandits to take over the military power and accomplish his plot to usurp it.

"Father, you must investigate!"

Liang Gaozu showed an irritable expression on his face, but he didn't reprimand him, he just waved his hand: "Understood, you also step back."

After the prince also left, Liang Gaozu walked a few steps in the main hall, looking at the continuous rain outside, wondering what he was thinking.

……

As soon as the camera turned, a group of soldiers and horses set off from Chang'an, went north along the Jinghe River Valley, and headed for Binzhou.

The kings of Qin and Qi led the troops and marched in the rain.

When the army entered Binzhou City, Jieli Khan also led more than [-] elite cavalry to the west of the city, and formed an array on the high ground in Wulongban.

But at this time, the Liang Dynasty army who came to the field, looked at the Turkic cavalry from afar, all of them had expressions of fear.

And Li Hongyun's perspective also dropped rapidly, and he possessed King Qin.

The invincible feeling of the Doll Gundam filled his body again.

In the previous few times, the King of Qin played by Li Hongyun had just set off, and the Turks had already retreated, and they had not been able to fight well.

But this time, the Turks should not let him down.

"Second brother.

"It has been raining for a long time in Guanzhong, the food roads are blocked, the soldiers are exhausted, and the equipment is evasive. In my opinion, it is better for us to retreat to Binzhou and rely on the strong city for defense. After a while, the Turks will naturally retreat."

Li Hongzhuan turned his head and saw that the person who said this was his fourth younger brother, King Qi.

Li Hongyun didn't have any good impression of King Qi.

In history, King Qi did often go out with King Qin. For example, when the two kings were captured in the Battle of Hulaoguan, King Qi led the main force to besiege Luoyang City.

However, this does not mean that King Qin attaches great importance to King Qi, and King Qi was directly airborne.

Judging from historical records, King Qi's personal strength is still good, but other aspects, including political wisdom, military talent, etc., are all hard to describe.

After Liang Gaozu raised his army and entered Chang'an, he asked the prince to be in charge of the logistics and the prime minister's government, and let the king of Qin expand the territory and conquer the four directions. As for the king of Qi, because he was only 15 years old at that time, he stayed in Taiyuan and guarded the entire Hedong area.

After all, this is the place where the Liang Dynasty started.

As a result, this king of Qi not only hunted every day, but also indulged his subordinates to rob the people of their property, and even shot arrows openly in the street, watching passers-by dodge for fun.

As a result, the entire east of the river was quickly lost, and even the wet nurse who had saved his life was killed for advising him.

Soon, Liu Wuzhou invaded, directly beating the king of Qi and fleeing with his head in his arms, and took Taiyuan almost without bloodshed.Although Liang Gaozu was furious, the land of Hedong had been lost, and he also had the idea of ​​completely abandoning the entire Hedong and sticking to Guanzhong.

In the end, King Qin insisted on sending troops, and after several months of hard work, he defeated Liu Wuzhou and regained the land of Hedong.

Later, Liang Gaozu no longer let King Qi be alone, but always let him send troops with King Qin.On the one hand, it is to share the military achievements of King Qin, and on the other hand, it is also a kind of surveillance.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the prince joined forces with the king of Qi to plot against the king of Qin.

Li Hongyun looked at King Qi, and directly took what he said as farting.

It has been raining for a long time, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Because of the rain, the roads were muddy, the logistical supplies in the rear were not transported smoothly, and the morale of the soldiers was also low, which is also true.

But if it is because of this that you are afraid to fight, and the Turkic people see through the truth, then it is absolutely impossible to make the Turkic people retreat.

They can indeed stick to Binzhou, but what if the Turks bypass Binzhou and go around burning, killing and looting?
Or the Turks didn't care about Binzhou at all, and went straight to Chang'an?

At that time, will they still stay in the city and watch the Turkic people do whatever they want?

Li Hongyun looked around the terrain here.

Binzhou is located on a small plain formed by the Jing River, and it is also one of the important transportation points.Around the city of Binzhou, there are also various small ditches and hills formed by the erosion of various tributaries.

At this time, more than [-] Turkic cavalry were on Wulongban in the west of the city.

Here is a high slope, and facing the direction of Liang Jun, there is a small ditch in front of it.

This small ditch can also be regarded as a tributary of the Jing River. However, although it has been raining during this period and the water level of the small ditch has risen, it is still in a state that can be crossed by horseback.

Of course, at this time, the Turkic people were condescending on the high slope opposite the small river ditch, which can be said to be in the best position.

If Liang Jun crossed this small ditch rashly, and the Turkic people decided to charge directly from Wulongban and attack halfway through, then Liang Jun might find it difficult to parry.

Although he knew that he could not retreat to defend the city, Li Hongyun had no idea how to fight.

Although his military command level is not as high as that of Zhao Haiping, he still has some basic common sense of war.

At this time, although the Turks came from afar, they had been looting near Binzhou for a while, but Liang Jun had just arrived from Chang'an.

The Turkic people are waiting for work with ease.

From the point of view of the terrain, the Turks occupy a high place with a small ditch in front of them, which can maximize the advantages of the cavalry.

On Liang Jun's side, due to the prolonged rain, not only was logistics a problem, but morale was also very low.

If you just foolishly want A to go up, the final result must be not optimistic.

It can even be said to be defeated.

You can neither show cowardice nor be reckless.

How should I fight?

Li Hongyun temporarily suppressed the urge to look at Emperor Taizong's standard answer, and wanted to try to solve this dilemma in his own way first.
