Kingdom of Heaven and Han

After tidying up his clothes in front of the door, Zhang Jun pushed the door open and entered Wang Xiaolie's house, saluting Wang Xiaolie.

Seeing that it was Zhang Jun, Wang Xiaolian said, "I haven't seen you for a few days. You are doing well."

Zhang Jun said hurriedly: "Okay, okay. Although I am a little busy, I eat well and sleep well. I am living a good life."

Wang Xiaolie raised his head, glanced at Zhang Jun, and said, "Please sit aside and I'll be right over."

Zhang Jun went to the reception area and sat down on a chair.After a while, Wang Xiaolie was still busy on the case, and Zhang Jun looked around.Seeing a tea cone placed on the table, he went over to pick it up and made himself a cup of tea.He went to the table and looked at Wang Xiaolie's cup. Seeing that the tea had lost its color, he also made a cup.

Wang Xiaolie looked at Zhang Jun, picked up the tea and took a sip.He said: "The water is a bit hot and has a slightly bitter taste."

Zhang Jun said: "Would you like me to make another drink?"

Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "No need. A little bitter is better, a little bitter will refresh you."

After a long while, Wang Xiaolie came to the reception area and sat down.Looking at Zhang Jun, he asked: "Is this journey going smoothly?"

Zhang Jun said: "Cao Du is stationed in Wenyu Village, and it is much more convenient to come here now. I came from Gujiao Town, and until now, there is no trace of the Jin Army there."

Wang Xiaolie said: "My friend is too close to Taiyuan and is much more dangerous. You should go to Shipenzhai, which is much safer."

Zhang Jun said: "The Jin army now is like frightened quails, hiding in their nests and not daring to come out. Why should we be afraid of them?"

Wang Xiaolie sighed: "Don't take risks unless necessary. Well, when you go back, go to Shipenzhai. What's the situation at Ningwuguan now?"

Zhang Jun said: "After many efforts, the road in front of Ningwuguan has finally been repaired. Now the carts can go directly to the Datong Basin without any obstacles. In more than ten days, the supplies will be sufficient to attack Datong Mansion at any time. "

Wang Xiaolie nodded, thought for a while and said: "Gushen has already led his army to set off. In another half month, the reinforcements of the Jin army should be in place. This time Nianhan has used the most powerful troops in the country. All added up." , the Jin army has 33 people."

Zhang Jun was overjoyed when he heard this: "Doesn't that mean there are no more soldiers around Datong?"

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "Yes, Datong is just an empty city now. Once you pass Ningwuguan, it will be like entering a deserted land."

Zhang Jun suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Zhi Niang thief, this time we have defeated Datong, and the Jin army will be wiped out on the west road!"

Wang Xiaolie took a sip of tea, put down the cup and said, "After passing Ningwuguan, what is your most important task? Do you know?"

Zhang Jun said: "Of course it is to capture Datong Mansion. As for other places, what will be the difficulty after capturing Datong?"

Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "Those are not important. The most important thing is the reinforcements after entering the Datong Basin. As long as they get the news that you have entered the Datong Basin, the Jin Army will definitely return reinforcements. Because there are too many Jin troops, at that time , I cannot catch up here. Your reinforcements must stick to Yanmen Pass. It is estimated that it will take 20 days for my troops to clear out the remaining Jin Army and catch up. "

Zhang Jun nodded: "I see. How many troops does Xuanfu think we should use to defend Yanmen Pass?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Twenty to thirty thousand people. I'm afraid you won't be able to occupy the Yanmen Pass gate city by then. Only with so many people can we stop the Jin army. There are fewer people attacking Datong, and we are afraid that the Jin army will come from Youzhou to help. Enter The first 3 days in the Datong Basin will be a very critical moment for you. You must make this clear to the following."

Zhang Jun nodded heavily.He knew in his heart that as long as he persisted for these 20 days, Wang Xiaolie would be able to destroy the Jin army, and then it would be unstoppable.Looking at Zhang Jun's appearance, Wang Xiaolie said earnestly: "The purpose of this battle is to eliminate Jin's new force, not to win. You must keep this in mind and never forget it. You understand it yourself. It’s not enough. We have to go back and explain it clearly to the troops, so that everyone understands it. Isn’t that the purpose of setting up a command in the division? It’s not enough to upload and issue orders. We also need to have our own ideas to do this work. good."

Zhang Jun said: "This subordinate understands."

Wang Xiaolie said: "Okay, you can go back too. You also have friends and acquaintances in Pingyao, go and meet them."

Zhang Jun stood up, walked to the door, turned around and said, "Don't worry Xuanfu, I will definitely do it well!"

Wang Xiaolie nodded and watched Zhang Jun go out.

Wang Xiaolie believed that he could win with only the troops in the Taiyuan Basin plus Xie Linong's East Route Army.But it is difficult to completely eliminate the Jin army.The main force of the Jin army is all cavalry. If you want to run away, you won't be able to catch up.

The road from Taiyuan to Hebei is inseparable from Taihang Baxing.He has already occupied Fukouxing. As long as he blocks Jingxing and Feihuxing in the north and Jiang Min's troops guard Yanmen Pass, they can lock the entire Jin army in the Taiyuan Basin.

Xie Linong was on the east road, so he could block the Jin army's retreat without large-scale contact with the Jin army.As long as Jiang Min blocks Yanmen Pass, a situation will arise where the gate is closed and the dog is beaten.Surrounding and annihilating 33 gold troops in one fell swoop is an exciting result to think about.

33 people. After this battle, the maximum force the Jin Army can organize will not exceed 20 people.It can be said that one battle will determine the outcome.

Wang Xiaolie didn't bother to think about what would happen next.It depends on whether Zhao Gou can accept such a victory.

Standing up, Wang Xiaolie walked to the window.

The leaves have turned yellow, and a ginkgo tree in the courtyard has been covered in gold.The breeze blew gently, and the golden leaves fell one by one.

Now that the Song Army has gained the absolute advantage over the Jin Army, only Zhao Gou in the south of the Yangtze River can understand.

Zhang Jun was walking on the streets of Pingyao and saw many pedestrians coming and going on the streets. Most of them were soldiers, especially officers.This is the characteristic of Wang Xiaolie's army. Other armies rely on petty officials or military academies to handle things, but Wang Xiaolie changed them to officers.The army has truly become formalized, unlike other armies.

After walking for a while and seeing that it was almost noon, Zhang Jun wanted to find his friend for a drink at noon.I had to come to Pingyao once, and met some old acquaintances whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.

Zhang Jun's friends in Pingyao were Li Songchen who was paired with Wei Yang in the [-]th Division, Peng Qi who was paired with Dong Xian in the [-]th Division, and Wang Zong, the governor of the Sixth Division under Zhang Yin.These people are all Zhang Jun's classmates in the military academy, and each has his own life experience.

We walked around and invited a few people.Zhang Jun said: "It's a rare meeting. What should we eat for lunch? Is there anything rare to eat in Pingyao?"

Wang Zong said: "Pingyao is just a small county in the middle of Shanxi Province, so what is it special about? Only beef is unique, and now every hotel has it."

After a while, Wang Zong suddenly said: "By the way, Yu Tangchun recently opened a new store in Pingyao. I heard that they could receive good sheep after arriving in Hedong, so they studied a kind of stewed mutton, which is very delicious. .How about going there?"

Several people cheered together.Several people pulled away and headed towards Yutangchun who was driving at the street entrance.

Yutangchun is also a property under the Xuanfu Division. It used to be famous for its copper hot pot and Zhizi barbecue. It is a wine restaurant of the same level as Cyclamen's dumplings.After Wang Xiaolie occupied Hedong Road, his industry expanded to Hedong.The sheep here are good. After painstaking research, we came up with this stewed mutton dish.
