Chapter 609 Entering Shu Plan
At this moment, Zhuge Qingyun shook his head and directly rejected Yang Chan's opinion. He said: "If this is the case, our marching progress will be greatly extended. Although we have recruited tens of thousands of soldiers from General Zhenxi before, these people still need to be trained. , The main force we can use in battle is the Imperial Forest Army brought by General Yang and my soldiers."

"The strength of the Southern Dynasty, I believe that General Zhenxi and General Yang are very clear in their hearts. Our action this time is one word 'quick'! We must attack Zitong in the rear from the Yinping path before the Jianmen Pass has no time to react. , Chengdu and other places. As long as these two great cities are captured, the rest of the prefectures and counties north of Chengdu will be destroyed without attacking."

"Besides, my Zhuge family is very popular in Bashu. If we take Chengdu, it will definitely shake the whole Shu. At that time, I will personally recruit the aristocratic families in Bashu and other places. I believe they will support us. Although Jiange is It is a grand pass in the world, but all the supplies for closing the pass come from Zitong and Chengdu.”

"As long as these two places fall into our hands and the supply of the Jiange is cut off, they will collapse without a fight. When General Yang goes to surrender, your father will definitely open the city and surrender directly under the pressure of the soldiers, and we can also Give General Yang a good name of 'Battlefield Uprising'."

Cheng Ying looked at Zhuge Qingyun who was full of confidence, and said: "But the emperor gave me the order to take down a few cities and punish the Southern Song Dynasty. Isn't it a little bit for us to do so?"

Zhuge Qingyun shook his folding fan lightly and said with a smile: "However, it is also stated in the imperial decree given to me by His Majesty that the scale of the siege is up to me, and I am given the right to act cheaply. Our greatest responsibility as ministers is to share our worries with you."

"After we took down Bashu and drove straight in, if His Majesty wants to return some land to the Southern Dynasty, that is His Majesty's own business. Besides, Shu is rich in products and fertile, and it has been called the 'Land of Abundance' since ancient times."

"In addition to the many wars in the Central Plains over the years, the population of Bashu is much larger than that of the Central Plains. If the land of Shu can be obtained, it will truly fulfill the prophecy in the "Longzhong Pair". At that time, don't say that the Southern Dynasty wants a Small Nanyang, even if Luoyang, Kaifeng, and Nanyang are exchanged for Bashu, it is worthwhile."

Duan Siying said at this time: "Mr. Zhuge, you are the prime minister, the head of a hundred officials under one person and above ten thousand. Since Qingwei gave him the right to do things cheaply, we just need to obey the deployment. I really don't know Qingwei is It’s not that you are too indulgent, if it is in Vulture Palace, what the lord says is an ‘imperial decree’, and subordinates must obey their superiors unconditionally.”

Zhuge Qingyun said with a smile at this time: "Master Duan's words are serious. Now that the imperial court is newly established, a thousand wastes are waiting to be rebuilt. Our system is not yet mature, but it is not without distinctions between superiors and inferiors."

Yang Chan thought for a while and said: "Auntie Duan is right. The most taboo thing about running the army is inconsistent government orders. Since the emperor has granted the prime minister the right to do things cheaply, then the prime minister will assign me to wait."

Zhuge Qingyun said: "Our battle plan is like this. First, General Yang Chan will lead the army to lay down the formation in front of the Jiange, making it look like our army is going to attack the Jiange, and attract the attention of the Jiange defenders."

"Afterwards, I personally led the team and led [-] soldiers to surprise Zitong and Chengdu along the Yinping path. The military and political affairs in the Guanzhong area are temporarily controlled by General Wang Ping. As for Miss Cheng, she will stay in the city for the time being. And Venerable Duan worked hard all the time. Come on, follow me to Bashu for a walk."

At this time, Yang Chan objected. She said, "Young Master Zhuge, as the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, is the head of all officials. How can he be in danger? Why don't I lead the team to take the city, and Young Master Zhuge stays in Guanzhong?" warlord."

At this time, Zhuge Qingyun shook his head and directly rejected Yang Chan's suggestion.

"No! First of all, General Yang is from Jiangnan, and he doesn't know the topography, geography, and folk customs of Bashu. I am originally from Bashu, so it's better for me to lead the team."

"Secondly, most of the soldiers under your command are from Bashu. If you take them back, some of these people may desert because of homesickness, and these people first followed His Majesty to fight the world. With General Yang's prestige, it is difficult to deter them in Bashu. Stay with them. Finally, there are the major families in Bashu, and their positions are crucial to the success or failure of our surprise attack."

"If we can make them fall to us, then Bashu will be destroyed by itself. I will also need to take care of the people's livelihood issues in the future."

After listening to Zhuge Qingyun's words, Yang Chan said with shame: "These things are really impossible for the general. If it's just a simple siege of the city and land, marching and fighting, the general can do it. As for the governance of the people's livelihood, he doesn't know anything about it. "

Duan Siying said with a smile at this time: "It's natural, if little Yang Chan knows everything, then the position of prime minister should be yours. Hahaha."

The battle plan was finalized amid the laughter of everyone.

Immediately, they began their preparations.

Zhuge Qingyun was wearing a battle armor, and then ordered the newly trained [-] soldiers, and gave them a lecture before the battle. He didn't say that he was going to fight this time.

But "go home".

It is human nature to be homesick. When these soldiers heard that they could go home soon, everyone was very excited.

Moreover, Zhuge Qingyun also promised that when they took the land of Bashu this time, they would send some Bashu people with outstanding military exploits to serve as officials in Bashu.

The greatest blessing in life is "returning to one's homeland in fine clothes and honoring one's ancestors" besides "returning to one's hometown after a long drought, encountering an old acquaintance in a foreign country. The night of wedding and candles in the bridal chamber, and the time of being named on the gold list".

This undoubtedly aroused the greatest fighting will of these soldiers from Bashu. If they can win Bashu this time, they can become officials in the nearest hometown, even if they go to the next county, as long as they are in Bashu "Homecoming".

Seeing the high fighting will of the soldiers, Zhuge Qingyun was very satisfied.

The acquisition of land is second, and the most important thing is to gather the "talents" in Bashu.

Zhuge Qingyun passed the Juren examination in his teens. He has many "classmates" in Bashu, and these people are all talented and good-natured, but these people stay at home and don't want to go far away. That's all.

In addition, they are not as courageous as Zhuge Qingyun. After all, a few years ago, no one would have believed that the Mongols would be so "vulnerable."

Naturally, they would not play for Datang either.

But if Bashu can be conquered, and if it shows that the Great Tang can dominate the world, Zhuge Qingyun believes that these people will be very willing to serve in the Great Tang. Appointed magistrates.

After Zhuge Qingyun ordered all the soldiers and horses, he set off lightly.

His troops did not bring heavy luggage, and the food was basically dry food. The only transport team was hauled by wooden oxen and horses, and wooden oxen and horses were designed for this kind of rugged mountain road.

Although Zhuge Qingyun still took the Yinping path, it was a brand new Yinping path.This route was explored with human life.

And this road can "come out" thanks to Tang Lan's credit.

 The new book is released, please readers appreciate it
