Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 148 Three Lines of Defense on East Road
"Officials, great victory in Taiyuan! Great victory at Yanmen Pass! Great victory in Xinzhou!" The orderly got off his horse and quickly ran to Zhao Huan's carriage.

Zhao Huan put down the book in his hand. Before he left, he also carefully looked at the map of Hedong Road. The entire Hedong Road was divided into three lines of defense.

The first line of defense is the Datong Mansion and the Datong Basin. This place has never been under the control of Datong.

Datong Mansion is in the hands of the Jin people, while Shuozhou is in the hands of the Song Dynasty. The two important military towns are both in the Datong Basin. If they are properly arranged, they can stop millions of soldiers.

It's a pity that the Datong Mansion was never under the control of the Song people.

Losing Datong Mansion, the Datong Basin is like opening the door, and Shuozhou can be broken at any time.

Therefore, the first line of defense on Hedong Road is useless.

The second line of defense is Shanyin, Yanmen Pass, Ningwu Pass and Gouzhu Mountain. This line has always been under the control of the Song people, and Yanmen Pass has always been the place where Song and Liao disputed.

There is a large-scale trading market once a year, and the exchange is held five times a month, giving this city gate a lot of economic significance.

When the Jin soldiers went south, Yanmen Pass, which was supposed to be the mainstay, under the leadership of Li Siben, directly opened the gate and surrendered to the Jin people.

The third line of defense is Taiyuan City.If you hold Taiyuan City, you will hold the entire River East Road, and you will hold the world.

Even if the Yanmen Pass is not lost, the Jinren can still make a detour, but in the end they still have to face Taiyuan City.

Wanyan Zongwang is very good at fighting.

But he still couldn't break through Bianjing City and destroy Song State.It is because Wanyan Zonghan did not break through the East Road, did not destroy Taiyuan City.

Zhao Huan couldn't believe it when he heard the good news from these three places.

What kind of news is it?

Zhao Huan opened it and read it again, but still couldn't believe it, the good news was real!
"The [-] victorious troops in Taiyuan City fought to the death without retreating, defending Taiyuan City to the death, and wiped out more than [-] enemies! The guard Wang was seriously injured!"

"Before Yanmen Pass, the marriage officer killed three thousand gold men and captured fifty thousand Khitan slaves."

"Wanyan Zonghan fled in embarrassment in Xinzhou, abandoned his horse and crossed mountains and ridges, and fled to Shuozhou!"

"Good! There is a big reward! Good!"

Zhao Huan was a little confused. When he was more than ten days away from Jinzhong, the first stage of the Battle of Hedong was completely over?

The troops on the Hedong Road not only defended Taiyuan City, but also regained the lost lands of Yanmenguan, Shanyin, Xinzhou and other places.

In the traditional narrow sense, all the enemy troops on Hedong Road have retreated!Recovered all lost ground.

But Zhao Huan clearly remembered that in the strategic calculation at that time, the strategy of the Great Song Dynasty Hall was to recover Datong Mansion.

If the Datong Mansion is not recovered, the Yanmen Pass and Shanyin in the Song Dynasty may still be breached by the Jin soldiers.

"Call Hu Yuan to me!"

Zhao Huan shouted loudly, the commander of the Taiyuan Army, Wang Zhi, has fifteen wounds in his body and is in danger!
Hu Yuan received a professional education in modern nursing, and the double-layer cold-forged armor of the stepper armor has a good protection effect against stabbing.

For these [-] wounds, the amount of blood loss is not a big problem, the most important thing is to prevent infection.

Hu Yuan tried the new nursing profession on Shen Cong. After gaining experience, he will be more comfortable with Wang Ting's wound.

How old is Wang Tin this year? 45 years old, in the prime of life!
If this is dead!The Song Dynasty lost another pillar!
Where can I find such a capable defender?

Hu Yuan tremblingly came to Zhao Huan. Ever since Shen Cong's incident, Hu Yuan had no idea of ​​boasting in front of Zhao Huan.

In the most professional field, he was beaten and defeated.

He felt ashamed of his ancestors.

Especially the ancestor who treated Emperor Taizong's arrow wound.

"Hu Yuan, the imperial physician of the imperial hospital, is visiting..."

"Take all your medical kits for treating the disabled, and hurry up! Use the fastest speed! Go to Taiyuan. Hurry up. Wang is seriously injured and must be cured!" Zhao Huan told Hu Yuan to go quickly.

Hu Yuan's face turned bitter, how can he be sure to cure the disease and save the patient?

It's all about fate after taking medicine.

"The minister leads the decree." Hu Yuan bowed his head helplessly and said, there is no way, who made the emperor give him the order?

"Shen Cong, call Shaobao Zhong! No, I'll go." Zhao Huan shouted at Shen Cong.

The way of being a teacher is becoming more and more old, like the dead leaves hanging on the dead branches, they may be blown away by the wind at any time.

When there is no major event, Zhao Huan is not willing to use Zhong Shi's way.

The Chong family worked hard for the Great Song Dynasty, and they were still on the road of conquest before they died.

Zhao Huan is not really a member of Zhao Song's old Zhao family, and he can't be as frivolous and ungrateful as Zhao Ji.

"Zong Shaobao, a great victory on Hedong Road!" Zhao Huan said excitedly as he walked to the jade scorpion.

Zhong Shidao finished his pen, and seeing the smiling face of the new emperor, he knew that this great victory might be more exciting than he thought.

He took the battle report, put on his presbyopic glasses, looked at it carefully for a long, long time, then put it down slowly, with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Congratulations to the official family. Congratulations to the official family."

Zhong Shidao understands the significance of Yanmen Pass to the Song Dynasty too well. It can be said that as long as Yanmen Pass is still in the hands of Song people, [-] soldiers can reach [-] troops.

This is a city gate with a history of more than 1000 years. In addition to Taiyuan, as long as the guards are willing to defend, Hedong Road will not be in danger of overturning.

"What did Zhong Shaobao write?" Zhao Huan saw that the letter in Zhong Shidao's hand was very thick.

Master Zhong said with a smile: "This is the legacy of the Chong family. After the Chong family, there will be no one who is interested in joining the army. The Chong family's military skills and military experience will be extinct."

"My younger brother is also a middle-aged man among the divisions. I don't have a very thorough understanding of this method of family transportation. I won't write it down. I will learn it for the young generals of the Song Dynasty. It will be a reference."

"This book is the Record of Talents. It is a collection of veritable sages that the veterans have collected over the years. When the officials need them, they will not be like Li Gang's assassination. No one can use them."

"As for this is what the officials call the military system, the officials must keep in mind that this military system can only be easily shown to others after there are [-] elite soldiers in the flying army, otherwise they can only be introduced slowly."

"Once it is announced to the world, the consequences will be unimaginable. If there is no large army to hold the line, there may be unknown incidents." Zhong Shidao said solemnly.

The system of military meritorious ranks and rural officials can indeed strengthen the army.

But it also robbed the power of the gentry and merchants, and the current situation in the world is that the Great Song Dynasty and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together, which is a fundamental conflict and cannot be reconciled.

A [-] flying army is an elite soldier who can travel hundreds of miles a day. If such a powerful army is in charge of the formation, and then the military system is implemented, it is natural to sit back and relax.

It's just that such soldiers really exist?
Even if he travels lightly and runs hundreds of miles a day, won't his leg be broken?

Zhao Huan was a little depressed. What Zhong Shidao did was undoubtedly very beneficial to Song Dynasty, and he could afford to devote himself to death.

His depression stems from the fact that he has nothing to seal and nothing to reward.

If you are not from the Zhao family, you will not be crowned king if you are born.

This damn ancestral system!Why can't such a person be given a prince?
The king of the Song Dynasty had no fief and no substantive authority. Under reasonable and compliant conditions, he could not confer kings on living masters.

Right?
　Thank you "Happy Little Fool" for your reward, thank you for your support. (づ￣ 3￣)づ
