Chapter 496 The Embarrassing and Shocking Truth

Wang Hua's battle has attracted a lot of attention.

From the first three ambushes, it developed to the second stage of active attack, but no one guessed the consequences of the second stage.

The attack on the stone castle is completely a false appearance, and the main goal is to surround the points for reinforcements.This strategy is not surprising, and then the battle of Yuchichuan once again surprised people.Di Dayan's [-] elite soldiers were defeated by Wang Hua's [-] soldiers.

No one saw the fighting on the battlefield, but there was a data.Wang Hua had 7000 people, with less than 800 dead and less than 600 seriously injured.However, at such a price, more than 9000 soldiers in Tubo were killed and more than 7000 soldiers were captured.As for the remaining thousands of soldiers, it is unknown where they fled.And at this price, the [-] troops of Dayan were defeated, and then the city of Dafeichuan was captured, and countless supplies and food were seized.

Victory again.

Originally, Mo Chuan heard that Wang Hua was at war with Tubo, and wanted to take some advantage from following him, so he immediately dispatched [-] troops to attack Lingzhou, and see if he could get the war horses from the Tang Dynasty racecourse.But the army hadn't started the attack yet, and after hearing the results of the battle, Mochu was frightened into a cold sweat.

Immediately disband the troops, well, this plague god didn't provoke me, so I'd better stay away from him.Can't afford it.

This battle is also unconstrained, without trace.But after listening to the process, apart from being amazed, I can still understand it.

It's still the first stage, which is very important. If Wang Hua hadn't defeated tens of thousands of the opponent's most elite troops first and weakened the opponent's power, it would have been impossible to achieve such a great victory in the second stage.But why did Dayan send him to his ambush circle like a moth?

And why is Wang Hua sure that even if it is done more than a month in advance, Dayan will definitely attack along these three directions?

Can pinch count?Feather fan and scarf, while playing and laughing, the mast and scull are wiped out in ashes?

pull!
Ordinary people can say this, but the ministers of the court do not. Although they looked at each other and marveled at the magic of the process, they knew that there must be a reason, but the reason was that Li Xian summoned Zhang Renyuan, and Lao Zhang thought about it for a long time. clear.

But Lao Zhang broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, he did not agree to some people to send troops to Lingzhou.Such a coquettish Wang Hua is no match for him at all.

It's just a pity that Wang Hua retreated decisively after a successful blow. Not only did the stone castle not be captured, but even Dafeichuan City was left behind.Can I ask for this?Apart from regret, Li Xian also has disappointment, loss, worry and fear.After hearing the news, I had mixed feelings.

But Wang Hua's memorial finally came belatedly and revealed the truth.

The other states had heard that they would submit a memorial to the imperial court very early, and at the same time they felt uneasy, hoping that the imperial court would not push Wang Hua too hastily, otherwise this coquettish Wang Hua would expand, and he would be in the eighth century. Near the state, it is not Wang Hua's opponent.

But after Wang Hua cleaned up all the funeral affairs, he also took the initiative to write a memorial to the court.Speaking of record, the real record.

The first battle was not as exaggerated as the memorial written by the nearby local government.Wang Hua did not make a false report at all. The number of soldiers killed was less than 2, and there were dozens of heads short.The main reason is that in the battle of Jiagu, 1 people were wiped out, and the results of the expansion were expanded.In addition, there were hundreds of civilian husbands who resisted.Here, Wang Hua distinguishes civilian husbands from soldiers.

Which one of the generals will be replaced, they will definitely be regarded as soldiers and their merits will be increased.But Wang Hua did not.

The captured soldiers were only 3 to a few hundred, not more than 3000, but more than [-] civilians.

However, the casualty rate in this battle was very low, only 2 or so soldiers died, and half of them were caused by Ge Shuhan's forcible sniping on Da Dayan in Hululing.And there were very few soldiers dispatched, only [-] soldiers.The number of soldiers dispatched for the second time was also very small, only [-].The result was almost the same as the memorials reported by other states.

In addition to this, more than 3 civilians were captured.Because their hearts belonged to the "Tang Dynasty", Wang Hua didn't do anything, and broke them up and scattered them in various states.This is also in line with the national purpose of the imperial court since Li Shimin.

After writing the results of the battle, Wang Hua offered another prisoner.

He sacrificed [-] prisoners of war, [-] horses, [-] cattle, and some weapons and armor, all of which were on the way to escort.However, Wang Hua did not send anyone to escort them, but instead escorted them to Weizhou, where officials and soldiers from Weizhou escorted them to the capital.It can't be escorted anymore. Escorting so many people and livestock requires a lot of soldiers and food.The soldiers were detained in Chang'an to prevent some people from knowing the sky.There is no need to buckle, since Wang Hua did not rebel, and the imperial court issued an imperial decree to transfer to another state, Wang Hua had nothing to do.There is also more shortage of food and grass, and Wang Hua doesn't want to stick it softly.

This made everyone happy. After all, the imperial court had not achieved a great victory against Tubo for a long time.

But Wang Hua didn't have any good intentions.

The captured people cannot be counted, and they cannot even move.But there were many other prisoners, including nearly 3000 soldiers and more than [-] civilian husbands.Among these people are fighters, Wang Hua is not polite.It doesn't matter whether you are a member of the party or a member of Tuyuhun, as long as you participate in the battle, don't expect to get preferential treatment.Those who were screened were [-] civilian husbands.

An enemy's enemy is a friend. Whether it is a party member or a Tuyuhun, under the high pressure of Tubo, they are very dissatisfied with Tubo.Even if there is still a pseudo-Khan in Tuyuhun.The two nations must be separated and resolved.Through this screening, more than 4000 people were selected, and they were scattered and settled down.

That's it, there are still more than 3 captives. Originally, Wang Hua wanted to use them to build water conservancy projects, including more than 1 people who were screened out. Originally, he did not intend to let them go easily.But with the arrival of the Fifth Department of the Party Committee, labor is no longer in short supply.Therefore, 1 people were selected from them, including the old, the disabled in battle, and the loyal Tibetans.These people can't be killed if they can't be killed, and they can't be used well or can't be safe.So one was dedicated to the court.

There are more than 2 people left. In addition to participating in the construction of water conservancy, there will be roads and many projects.These people will serve as official slaves of the eight states.In addition to participating in a large number of projects, some meritorious tribes can also be rewarded as slaves and favors.

More war horses were captured, including thousands of war horses captured again in Dafeichuan, reaching nearly [-].However, there are many old horses and weak horses among them, and it is useless to keep them.So it was sent to the court together.In any case, Wang Hua did not want the people of the Tang Dynasty to live in dire straits.Now the people of the Tang Dynasty lack large livestock for labor, and these horses are weak as war horses, but they can still be used as plowing horses.At least it is more efficient than pulling a plow.

Immediately, eight prefectures will be extensively cultivated, and large livestock will also be needed. However, with the captives this time, and the fact that eight prefectures are dominated by nomads, there is no shortage of large animals for cultivation.So Wang Hua came to make the icing on the cake and picked two thousand of the thousands of cattle that were seized and gave them to the court.

Wang Hua didn't pay much attention to weapons and armor, especially bows and arrows.It cannot be given to local tribes. They already have weapons in their hands. Sending weapons to them will increase their strength and make it difficult to control.This also requires a balance point, and they cannot be made too weak, after all, it is possible to choose soldiers among them in the future.

After picking and choosing, some good armor and weapons remained, and they might still be useful.But there are not many left. The weapons are usually not used and need to be maintained, which is also a cost.The inferior ones are smelted into other agricultural and industrial ironware.But also for the icing on the cake, a batch of weapons was taken out and given to the court.

This is the righteousness of the struggle.Do you see it?I just borrowed eight states, but I really beat the Tibetans.I didn't move other counties, not even Kuozhou, which was under my nose.And after the fight was over, even the spoils of war were handed over a lot.This is something that other border guards cannot do.

This is only the first step, now some people are threatening to say that Wang Hua is rebelling.In fact, it is difficult for everyone to define whether Wang Hua is rebellious or not, even if he knows the truth.Wang Hua used these trophies to refute this statement again, making plans for the next step.I attacked Tubo for the court and the princess, and now the food and funds are all my own.Even the original taxes of the states were handed over to the imperial court for a penny.In fact, there is no taxation. Leaving aside the expenditure of the army, these states have always been subsidized by the imperial court.

But the imperial court can't withhold the grain I brought.

Mainly food, weapons and some other supplies are easy to use some special means to transport them because they don’t occupy a large volume. In the name of Tubo smuggling, it was transported to Eight States.The same goes for other goods.

However, there are too many food shortages. If there is water transportation, it will be better.However, although the Wei River can reach Weizhou, water transportation cannot reach Weizhou.The Han Dynasty cleared it up, and then it was silted up.When it arrived at the Yangguang Grand Canal, it was well known that the water transport reached Xianyang, Chang'an, and even as far as Guo Town, Baoji County, Fengxiang Prefecture. When it is large, it can navigate one or two hundred tons of river boats.Even after reaching the Ming Dynasty, when the water was high, ships of [-] tons could reach Chang'an.But I only arrived at Guo Town, even from Chang'an to Guo Town, because there are many beaches, after August and September, I don't even think about sailing.As for further upstream, navigation?Let's go through the little raft.But that's it, from Fengxiang to Lanzhou, you have to pass through Longzhou and Weizhou in the middle, you have to use a horse-drawn carriage, and you can't feel it when you get on the ship with dozens of tons of ground.Besides, there are many boats in the Weishui River, but how many horse-drawn carts will it take to pull the [-] tons of grain on the shore?
Such a large-scale transfer is bound to alarm the court, so Wang Hua is trying every means.

Offering prisoners of war and captured materials is only part of it. This is the opening drama.Let's salute the soldiers first, and take up the righteousness.

But this memorial did not mention food, so no one guessed which play Wang Hua sang.

Then write the reasons for the victory of the first battle.

Fighting Tubo is definitely necessary, not only that, but Wang Hua really wants to destroy this country, which is of great benefit to the development of the entire prosperous Tang Dynasty.Although Webster's current regime is chaotic, even though it is not as rich as the Song Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty is still one of the best dynasties in history.At least this kind of openness and enterprising spirit is something that Wimpy Song doesn't have.

It is because of the convenience of the plateau that it cannot be eliminated, but it must be returned to its original shape. In the Sui Dynasty, it was returned to the south of Jishi Mountain Kunlun Mountain, Nvguo, Xiangxiong, Subi, Fuguo, Jialiang, Gongbu, Dabo, Baoji , Nali, Guge, Burang, Rituo, Mayu, Bowo, Yalong (the ancestor of Tubo) and other small countries or tribes coexisted side by side.

Wang Hua also said so in the memorial.If it turns out, all the officials can only smile, thinking that he is trying to cover up, so that the court will not attack him with troops and let him gain a foothold in Bazhou.But now there is no such minister joke.Although Tubo is very powerful, it can't stand Wang Hua's gnawing like this.

But how to fight, direct attack is not enough, and Dayan has a lot of power in his hands, and he governs a vast area from Jishi Mountain to Dafeichuan.The soldiers in his hands plus those who can be transferred will allow him to quickly organize an army of [-] to [-].Head-to-head confrontation may not win the favor, and as long as there is a head-on confrontation, the treacherous officials in the court will definitely attack Linglan and several states, and draw Wang Hua's back ladder.

Wang Hua also said so directly in the memorial.

Li Xian looked very depressed.

Therefore, Wang Hua discussed with his subordinates a way, first lead Di Dayan to Shanhe two prefectures to fight, and when he arrived in his own territory, the terrain was familiar and he took advantage of the geographical advantage.The people are their own people, taking advantage of Renhe.It was launched on its own initiative, which took advantage of the time.But this time of day is not the weather, but the right to take the initiative on the battlefield.

How can I quote?
After discussing for a long time, they thought that the Wei family and Di Dayan had joined forces to murder Wang Hua.Not for other families.Firstly, the Wei family has a feud with Wang Hua, and secondly, this connection is the "friendship" between Fu Dayan and the Wei family.So I found a clever and courageous subordinate named Song Yi'an.The person who asked him to pretend to be the Wei family brought many "gifts", including 1 taels of gold and a large number of weapons, which were issued to the blood camp by the Tang Dynasty.However, Wang Hua was asked to change his costume, and this point was deliberately omitted in the memorial.There is also [-] shi of grain.

This cost is huge, and the value is 10,000+ min materials.But relatively speaking, the gains are greater.The harvest of a Dafeichuan is far more than that.

Wang Hua brought the two most eye-catching people, Wang Junchuo and Kong Heizi, to Lingzhou, and took the large army with him.Large troops and some generals are also needed, after all, there are a large number of imperial troops stationed in Lingzhou.There is no mention of this in the memorial.

This is a deliberate delusion that Shanzhou and Hezhou have no military strength.In fact, there are not many troops in Erzhou, but these troops are enough to deal with Dayan.

Then, he used some information inquired by the scouts to analyze Fu Dayan's character.It was not like the huge difference shown in this battle. He marched steadily and battle-tested, and he was indeed a brave general in Tubo.But there is a shortcoming, that is, greed, greed for merit, greed for money, greed for fame, and good face.

After finding this shortcoming, Wang Hua added another weight and created a list of famous generals.This was arranged by Wang Hua's nonsense, and no one in Chang'an spread this list.The first two lists do it justice.The last list is half true and half false.

If Wang Hua were to rank according to his thoughts, Xue Na would be the first, there would be no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys would be kings. The first big battle between Tang and Tibet in history was the Battle of Songzhou. Niu Jinda, Liu Lan and others led the army, but the main hero was Niu Jinda.In this battle, 20 people in Tubo were defeated, and Songtsan Gampo became honest all of a sudden.

But it is true that the Tang Dynasty in the hands of Li Shimin, in terms of military force, China can only be compared with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in history, which is too good.

Then in the battle of Dafeichuan, the [-] soldiers in Dafeichuan City were almost killed or captured, and the [-] troops with logistics were very few.This was the first major defeat of the Tang Dynasty.In the next few battles, except for Wang Xiaojie who took advantage of the battle of the four towns, they were all defeated.Those four towns were still far away from Tubo.

It was not until the Battle of Wu Street commanded by Xue Na that this trend was reversed.But this battle made one person, Wang Jun, and it was a pity to lose one person, Wang Haibin, the father of the demigod general Wang Zhongsi.Because the generals were afraid of their merits, they did not send troops to rescue them and died in battle.In anger, Xue Na slaughtered tens of thousands of Tubo prisoners of war.To be able to annoy the old man like this is to think of the regret that Wang Haibin's death brought to him.But this victory was very glorious, and more than 100 million cattle and sheep were captured.

After so many days of mopping up the grasslands, Wang Hua reached Dafeichuan, and there were not even 100 million cattle and sheep.

Based on this battle alone, he undoubtedly ranked first in this age of bleak stars.But Wang Hua can't be ranked, because the war didn't happen, there was no Khitan's big defeat, and there was no Tubo's big victory. Now that Lao Xue has won and lost in Youzhou, the ranking is not convincing.

Then came Lao Tang, Lao Guo, and Lao Zhang.Xiao Song and Zhang Xiaosong cannot be counted, and neither can Wang Jun. They are in the transitional stage.There are still ten or twenty years before it can shine.Next came Guo Zhiyun and others.

Can Mo Sip be number one?This is to cater to Dayan's psychology, so we can't always exclude people from Tang Dynasty.On the surface, Mo's voice is very fierce, but his fighting is the foundation left by his brother, just like what is said in history that Wu Zetian ruled the country.Why not mention Di Renjie's credit?Wu Zetian can only be said to be a conspiracy, and the country is the foundation of Li Zhi's stay.If it wasn't for Di Renjie, Lao Wu would have been defeated.

As for Wang Hua, he didn't think he could rank fifth, but he could only rank around tenth.This is because his own mentality has not been adjusted well, the first place may not be, but the fifth place is very fair.Fu Dayan is even more ridiculous.This is to deliberately rank Di Dayan very high, to arouse his desire for fame and competition, and then deliberately put him under Wang Hua.

Once greedy for fame, an idea must arise in his heart, can he defeat Wang Hua and raise the ranking by one or two?
The three-pronged approach of wealth, military exploits, and reputation finally led to Dayan to make a decision to send troops immediately regardless of the future and future of Tubo.

But how will Dayan send troops?After deduction again.Because he has a steady personality and is greedy for money.Therefore, it was decided that he would not launch a big battle. A protracted war may not be able to win the favor. Moreover, Tubo also hoped that Wang Hua and the Tang court would kill each other, and most of them would not agree with him and Wang Huayu.Therefore, he will make a decision to quickly attack and annihilate some of Wang Hua's vital forces, weaken Wang Hua, and then take away his wealth.If Wang Hua hadn't fought against the court, he would have retreated in one blow, with military exploits, fame, and property.With lining, with face.If Wang Hua fought against the imperial court, he would occupy the Heshan two prefectures, wait and see, and even continue to expand the results of the battle.

Wang Hua wrote it directly in the memorial.I did not rebel, but your majesty should also be more clear-headed. We fight in the nest, and only the Tubo people will benefit.

Then it is relatively simple to analyze the marching route of Dayan.In order to break down one by one, Wang Hua deliberately made a fake granary.And it never occurred to Di Dayan that Wang Hua hadn't gained a foothold in Lingyin County, and he hadn't even decided to start an incident, so he would put his mind on him.

So fell into a trap.

The truth was revealed, but everyone was still amazed. It was not a trick, but Wang Hua's analysis of human nature, which made people feel chilling.Even Zhang Renyuan shuddered, thinking to himself, what flaws in my character would be exploited by Wang Hua?
We must know that no one is perfect, and nothing is perfect. Which person has no shortcomings?

But it was shocking that a dignified Tubo general, a general who led nearly 10 troops, was led by the nose like a dog by Wang Hua.And this dog food only has 10,000+ money in supplies.The more thunderous one is called Song Yi'an and named Wei Kong, isn't it because the Wei family doesn't have such a person?And that bullshit leaderboard is also ridiculous.After losing like this, can they still make it to the sixth place?
But it's even more embarrassing. The one who is embarrassing is not Ji Dayan alone, but also the Wei family.

The Wei family and Zong Chuke have always denied collusion with Di Dayan.This time the battle took place, and it was because of the collusion between the Wei family and Di Dayan that it turned out to be a good thing for Wang Hua.This time, the Wei family couldn't tell the difference.And even Webster couldn't get rid of the suspicion. First, the Wei family killed Wang Hua, and later Webster killed Wang Hua in the palace.Why are they linked together?In fact, it really had nothing to do with Webster the first time, but now she just quibbles, who believes it?In the memorial, Wang Hua only stated the cause, process, and result of the entire war planning, and did not say whether the Wei family or Webster was right or wrong. But if this memorial is spread, what will the common people think?The imperial court should not try to hide it, Wang Hua has already used the human resources in his hands to publicize the matter.

There is not even a word of excuse, but the facts prove how innocent Wang Hua is, and how did Webster destroy the Great Wall himself?You must know that Wang Hua is not only a national hero, but also her son-in-law!
So this battle is not only a battle, but also a double score politically.

When Webster heard the news, his face flushed, and he almost vomited out a mouthful of blood.

She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself, this kid is too irritating.

But it still cannot be said that in the past few months, because of Wang Hua, Li Xian's feelings for her have become much stranger than before.

Not only that, even Zong Chuke and other left and right arms have been weakened a lot of rights.

And she still has one thing to deal with right now, Li Xian looked at her with a displeased expression, and didn't ask, but the meaning was very clear, why did these things happen?What is she going to do?
So I have to find a way to fool him, but how to fool him, the facts are in front of us.

Thinking of this, her face blushed again, and she almost couldn't breathe again.
