Sui and Tang Dynasties: Killing Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty to sacrifice to heaven at the beginni

Chapter 292: King Zhongxiao takes command.

Zhongxiao Wang Wu Jianzhang asked his son Wu Yunzhao and nephew Wu Tianxi to be the chief and deputy vanguard officers of the East Conquering Army.

There is no doubt about the loyalty of King Zhongxiao and his family to the Sui Dynasty, and they can be said to be a family of three heroes.Among the thirteen heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Wu Yunzhao ranked fifth among the thirteen heroes, and his brother Wu Tianxi ranked sixth.Both of these two men are also possessed of undue courage, so it's no problem to be a vanguard officer.

On the dragon chair, Yang Guang nodded, and said in response: "Okay, since that's the case, I will appoint Wu Yunzhao, Wu Tianxi and brother Wu Tianxi as the chief and deputy vanguard officers."

After the appointment of the three-way army, there was no Li Mu's troops in the east-conquest army this time, which reassured the ministers of the powerful families.

They had to let Yang Guang lose this battle, precisely because they had to do something during the march, so the ministers of these aristocratic families were afraid that Li Mu would be involved in it.

Li Mu is the most difficult to deal with among Yang Guang's minions. This is a matter recognized by everyone, and in the process of fighting between the powerful families and Li Mu, these powerful families have never taken advantage of them.

"Your Majesty, there are so many waterways in Goguryeo, I think I have to send an army of waterways to support them." Old Yang Lin stood up and said at this time.

Before the Song Dynasty, most of the wars were fought by the army, and the navy army accounted for a small proportion of the imperial army.The Sui Dynasty also had a navy, but it did not use the navy as the main force.Therefore, in Yang Lin's mouth, the navy is only playing a side effect.

After Yang Lin finished speaking, Yang Guang couldn't help but nodded.In Yang Guang's view, this battle must not only be won, but also won beautifully.Sending a navy to support them can also provide multiple retreats.

"Uncle Huang thinks, who should lead this navy?" Yang Guang asked.

There were not a few competent generals in the Sui Dynasty, but the vast majority of generals were good at land warfare, not water warfare. Therefore, who should be in charge of the water army is also a problem.

Who will be in charge of the navy is a question.Although the Sui Dynasty also had a navy, but since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, the navy has not fought any tough battles.

Of course, this is mainly because Tai Sui likes to do dungeons in the north, not because he likes to do dungeons in the south.Since the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the most favorite dungeons are the Eastern and Western Turks in the north, including the northern grassland peoples such as Tuyuhun.

If you copy the dungeon in the north, you need to strengthen the strength of the army, and if you do the dungeon in the south, you need to strengthen the strength of the navy.These naval forces of the Sui Dynasty were basically inherited from the Nanchen when the country was first founded. This navy was not considered strong in the first place, and it has become even weaker over the years.

Throughout the history of China, those who placed the economic center in the north, like the Qin, Han, and Tang dynasties, had a strong army and a weak navy.It wasn't until the Song and Ming dynasties that the navy gradually became stronger and stronger.

The navy of the Sui Dynasty was not strong, so no one took the initiative to ask Ying to take charge of the navy.These generals of the Sui army believed that since the navy was not strong, it was inevitable that they would lose the battle.At that time, the army won the battle, but the navy lost the battle. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for him?

In the Qin, Han, Sui and Tang dynasties, almost no navy was the main force, so there were no dedicated navy generals.The commander of the navy is almost always in charge of the army and even the commander of the cavalry.

After all, with regard to military matters, if one knows everything, Baitong can control the army, and most of them can also control the navy.

Backer Yang Lin waited for a long while, and seeing that no one volunteered, he knew that no one wanted to go.

"Your Majesty, I recommend a man named Lai Hu'er. This man is from Jiangdu, and he is very good at naval warfare. I think this person can be in charge of the navy." Before Yang Lin, the king of the mountain, could speak, Yue Wang Yang Su made a breakthrough first. .

At this time of the war, the navy is nothing more than a supporting role, not the key to the battle.Therefore, it doesn't matter who will be in charge of the waterway army.Since Yue Wang Yang Su recommended to protect his son, Yang Guang agreed.

"Okay, since the king of Yue recommended him, then this person should be the one." Yang Guang said in response.

"As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses are moved, the food and grass go first. Dear friends, who will be the food officer of our army?" Yang Guang asked the generals in the court.

In fact, at this time, Yang Guang and these generals were already discussing the matter of conquering the East.The purpose of the powerful time is to conquer Goguryeo, and Li Mu cannot be in command. At this time, their purpose has been achieved, and naturally they will not disturb Yang Guang any more.

After all, what if Yang Guang repented of not conquering Goguryeo if he messed with the goal he had finally achieved.

At this time, the members of the powerful family became silent, and the atmosphere in the entire court became much more harmonious.

In this large army, apart from the vanguard, the most important thing is the food transport team.It can even be said that the importance of the food transport team has to be higher than that of the vanguard.

In ancient warfare, it was not easy to transport food and grass. Once there was a shortage of food in the army, the battle would be lost.Therefore, surprise attacks on grain roads between the two armies also happened from time to time.

It can even be said that if the vanguard loses one round, it may not be impossible to win the battle between the two rounds.But if the food road is robbed, then this battle will be lost.

If nothing else, let's talk about Jiang Shang, the ancestor of the military family.When Jiang Shang helped King Wu defeat Zhou, who was the pioneer official? It was Nezha.Who is the food management officer? The food management officer is Yang Jian.

Nezha or Yang Jian, whoever is more capable, is undoubtedly Yang Jian.Let Yang Jian, who is more capable, to transport food, and let Nezha be the vanguard, which shows that in Jiang Shang's eyes, the food management officer is a more important responsibility than the vanguard officer.

No one wants to be the general in charge of the navy, but the grain officer is a position that many people can only dream of.All of a sudden, all the generals in the court shouted, all vying for this position.

"Quiet, what are you making so much noise about? Do you think my Jinluan Palace is just a downtown area?" Yang Guang's exit made the hall become much quieter, and the generals didn't dare to argue anymore.

"Generalissimo, from my point of view, you have to personally choose a grain officer!" Yang Guang said to Wu Jianzhang.

Grain management officer is an important position, and it is better for Wu Jianzhang to choose it himself than Yang Guang to appoint a grain management officer.Yang Guang thought to himself, if the grain officer he appointed did not agree with Wu Jianzhang, then something might happen again.

On this battlefield, the most taboo thing is the disagreement between the grain officer and the front-line commander. If this is the case, then the grain officer withholds some food, slows down the speed of food transportation, and then there is no need to fight this battle.

Zhongxiao Wang Wu Jianzhang looked at these generals who were vying for the position of grain officer, but he didn't like it for a long time.

"Ninth brother, how about being a grain officer for me, please?" asked Yang Su, king of Yue, the author of the Zhongxiao Dynasty.
