Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 406 Troop Plan (4000)

"Your Majesty! Those who have not yet accepted Wang Hua in the south are only Jiangdong, Jingnan, and Shu. Xiao Yan has two of them, but he is old and feeble, like a dry bone in a tomb, and he can only be destroyed with a snap of his fingers.

"Although Yu Wentai has talent and aspirations, his heroes are useless, and the weak and poor will hardly cause serious troubles.

"Now that Rouran is defeated and Khan is martyred, it is difficult to compete with the Turks. If the Turks take all of Rouran's old land, it will be like a thorn in my back. I am afraid that your Majesty's unification cause will be disturbed by it, and there will be twists and turns.

"In the Battle of Huaihuang, although the Turks won, they were naturally injured. The newly recruited people were not attached to their hearts, so they would definitely not want to fight to the death. I think that your majesty should seize the opportunity to raise troops to unite with the remnants of Rouran, and use them as the vanguard. Strike the Turks in the north!"

Chen Yuankang's words actually touched Gao Cheng's thoughts in every detail, even making Rouran's remnant as a forerunner coincided with him, and he was a confidant who could hug him to death.

As for praising Yu Wentai and belittling Xiao Yan, this is political correctness in Northern Qi.

If Yu Wentai is incompetent, the first Western Expedition was defeated, and the Taizu Wu Emperor He Liuhun who almost lost his life is nothing.

Of course, it was nothing more than flattering an opponent, and it was nothing more than hand-picking for the Northern Qi monarchs and ministers, let alone a genuine figure like Yu Wentai, wasn't Xiao Yuanming bragging for them on the path of being a famous general in history.

As a result, when scholars of later generations studied the history books such as "Northern History" and "Southern History" compiled by Zhang Shiqi and others, they all marveled at the battle commanded by Xiaobingxian in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the opponents were all famous ancient generals.

Of course, as more and more documents from the end of the Southern and Northern Dynasties were unearthed, later generations could not help feeling:
'Reaping praise from the enemy is the greatest recognition for a general, unless he is facing Gao Qi. '

Even using this as a basis to question Yu Wentai's gold content, this can only be said to be the black humor of history.

Besides, after hearing what Chen Yuankang said, Gao Cheng frowned slightly. What he wanted was for his confidant to strengthen his confidence, so he pretended to be worried and said:
"Suppose we send troops to Mobei, and the southerners take the opportunity to provoke, so what?"

This time, without waiting for Chen Yuankang's answer, the sharp-eyed Wang Wei saw the change in Gao Cheng's expression, and immediately understood Gao Cheng's war and tendency. At this time, he heard the question and answered first:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Liang people have suffered successive defeats, and their soldiers have long been discouraged in land battles. Even if there is a new army to organize and train, it has only been a few months, and there is nothing to do. Besides, the domestic prices are boiling, the soldiers and the people are resentful, and the two indemnities, the treasury It is also empty, and if we raise military supplies at this time, we can only levy exorbitant taxes on the people, which will inevitably arouse civil uprisings in various places, and there is no time to look north.”

After Wang Weicai finished talking about Nanliang, he was interrupted by Gao Cheng:
"Previously, the rich families in the south of the Yangtze River donated supplies for Xiao Yan to recruit new troops. Why can they only send more to the common people this time?"

Although Wang Wei didn't believe that Gao Cheng didn't think of this, he still explained:

"The Hao family donated supplies to help Xiao Yan guard the south of the Yangtze River. Not only did the Liang army lose courage in the previous two major defeats, but even the Hao family did not have the confidence to cross the river to fight against our great Qi. How could they break up their homes and businesses for their Northern Expedition."

Gao Cheng clapped his hands and laughed loudly:

"good!"

After all, no one's money came from the strong wind. When they felt that the land war was being chased and beaten by the Qi people, how could those gentry tyrants hand over their wealth to Xiao Yan for the Northern Expedition to squander.

He asked again:
"So what if Xiao Yan plunders the riches of the wealthy family for his own use?"

"Xiao Yan is a hypocrite, with a woman's benevolence in his heart, he likes to give small favors, but he doesn't know the general situation. To the Jiangnan nobles, he is like the sun in winter, which makes people feel warm and comfortable all over. How can such a lovely person plunder the nobles? family assets."

Unknowingly, Gao Cheng was misleading the topic, and asked again:
"If Xiao Yan is the sun of winter, what season of the sun does Wang Qing think I am?"

Wang Wei was speechless for a moment, not only Chen Yuankang, Wang Hong, Wang Jun, but even Lu Cao fell silent.

Lu Cao is honest and upright, but he is not stupid.

The allusion of the so-called Four Seasons Sun comes from the Zhao family of the Qing family of Jin State in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The first suzerain, Zhao Shuai, was called the Sun of Winter because of his friendly personality, good at dancing among the Qing clan, and being able to get along with everyone.

As for Zhao Wu, the Sun of Spring, and Zhao Yang, the Sun of Autumn, they had little to do with Gao Cheng, while Zhao Dun, the Sun of Summer who was most similar to him, was the one with the most controversy.

Zhao Dun is the son of Zhao Shuai, the Sun of Winter, who is almost the opposite of his father in his conduct. People are in awe, but they don't want to get close.

Of course, many of Zhao Dun's harsh methods are also related to the different social environment of Jin when he and his father ruled separately.

Everyone is afraid, it's not that Summer Sun is the son of Winter Sun, Little Gao Wang and Xiao Yan are grandparents regardless of their age and in-laws. seniority in the family.

The main reason is that he was worried about insinuating that Gao Cheng was once named Wei Xiang, and that he actually specialized in Wei Quan, which would annoy him.

Seeing the silence of the crowd, Gao Cheng looked at Chen Yuankang, as if to say, you kid has been yelling for 17 years, and you have only my sun in your heart all day, so what kind of sun am I?

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Chen Yuankang was about to bite the bullet and answer, when suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, puffed up his chest and said:
"Your Majesty is like the winter sun to loyal, brave and kind people, making people feel close to each other, but to treacherous people, it is also like the summer sun, making people fearful and afraid to look directly at the light .”

Gao Cheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, pointed at Chen Yuankang and said with a smile:
"Okay Chen Changyou, that's all! You pass the test."

Chen Yuankang also quickly apologized and thanked him with a smile. In fact, he knew that even if he couldn't answer, or even answered wrongly, Gao Cheng would not be really angry because of the relationship between the two.

If there were only two people alone, it would be fine to directly answer Xia Zhiyang, but now there are four people present, and the majesty of the emperor must always be taken into account.

This is also the reason why Chen Yuankang is loved by Gao Huan and Gao Cheng. He is not only capable, but also good at flattering and flattering.

Gao Cheng has the leisure to talk to his staff about the Four Seasons Sun, which proves that he has made up his mind, and there is no need for Wang Wei to analyze why Yu Wentai won't send troops.

As closed as the land of Shu, I don't know how long it will take for the news to spread.

Ashina Tumen did not follow the historical script, and Gao Cheng lacked enough information to understand the Turkic plan to attack Rouran at the foot of the Jinshan Mountain [-] miles away.

Yu Wentai nestled in Chengdu, so he can see things in northern Xinjiang clearly, which can only be said to be a fantasy.

how!Xiao Gaowang, a traverser, doesn't have such cheats, so why do you Yuwentai, a native, cheat.

Gao Cheng is now able to know the specific news of Mobei. It was Tiefa who sent a messenger to inform him. When Yuwentai heard about the changes in northern Xinjiang, but did not know the details, he went to mobilize the army and mobilize supplies, not to mention whether he could break through the danger of Longshan to the north , to the east to complete Liu Huangshu's unfinished business, with Gao Cheng's deployment of troops in Guanlong and Jianghan, I am afraid that Yu Wentai finally broke through the dangerous mountainous obstacles, and Gao Cheng will soon return to the army.

As for the Kumoxi, Khitan and other clans, they all set their eyes on Mobei. How dare they stroke Gao Cheng's tiger beard at this time, let alone Tuyuhun.

Now that he had made up his mind, Gao Cheng immediately issued various instructions. In addition to the 4 cavalry soldiers of the Gyeonggi Army mobilized before, he also ordered the mobilization of the remaining 10 cavalry soldiers. [-] Xianbei soldiers gathered, and a total of [-] troops left the fortress.

At the same time, Gao Jishi was ordered to rush to Qinzhou to hand over the command of the Longyou cavalry to Pan Le, and then sent [-] Shanzhou troops to help defend Guanlong, under the command of Pan Le and Wang Sizheng who guarded Guanzhong respectively.

Gao Jishi, on the other hand, led [-] cavalrymen from Longyou, guided by people who had been sent to the Turks before, and took advantage of the main force to drive eastward to Jinshan, destroying its rear, especially emphasizing that there was no need to capture women and children. No one is left alive.

Gao Cheng does not have the benevolence of a woman like Xiao Yan. His benevolence is only shown to the good people under his rule. Clean guy, nothing can be done.

What for modern people, war has nothing to do with civilians.

When he was strong, this kind of reasoning obviously did not exist. If he was on the weak side or the side being invaded, he might raise his arms and shout, hoping that the other party would not slaughter his own people.

It's not that Gao Cheng doesn't want women and children captive, after all, he has never experienced the style of Turkic women, and he must be a Turkic woman with Caucasian characteristics in the true sense. I sent Gaoche Chile girl by myself.

It's hard to come back alive after going deep into the Far West, and it's definitely unrealistic for Gao Jishi to bring back a large number of women and children.

At the same time, Gao Cheng also assigned an additional task to Gao Jishi, connecting with the Heda people and exaggerating the achievements of the Turkic people in the east. It would be best if the Heda people could plunder with them.

Undoubtedly, the Turkic attack on Rouran must be a battle for the whole family. If the front line loses, it is meaningless to keep people at home. However, Heda needs the Turkic to deal with Rouran, so there is no need to worry about them stabbing in the back. Huangshan and Jinshan, one is close to Yanzhou and Youzhou in the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the other belongs to the later Central Asian mountain system. One is east and the other is west, and they are far apart.

Even if the Heda people try to get people to follow the Turks to the east on the condition that they show friendship, or as a condition that they do not send troops to backstab, I am afraid that the first time the Turks defeat the main force of Rouran will be the envoys who control the Heda people. It passes the message back.

This is also the fact that in the original time and space, the Turks beheaded Anahu in 541 and gained hegemony, but they did not completely wipe out the remnants of Rouran until 554, because the main force had to go back to watch the house after swallowing most of the inheritance of the Rouran Khanate.

With the Rouran people present, the Heda people are good neighbors of the Turkic people. With the Rouran people gone, the Heda people can’t be indifferent when the Turkic people are gone. They are not weak.

As for why Gao Ji style was used instead of Pan Le, it wasn't that he couldn't trust him, but mainly because he was worried that Pan Le couldn't bear it.

After all, the two have been together for a short time, and I can trust him because of He Liuhun's legacy, the real legacy, not the kind that Little Gao Wang made up.

'Pan Le is a moral person, kind-hearted and generous, he will be a good help for you. '

It would be inappropriate to force a person of high moral character to burn, kill, loot, and slaughter women and children.

As for Gao Jishi, it is different. Gao Shen drank too much wine in his early years and offended Li Changyi verbally. (225 chapters)
Gao Jishi went out of the fortress this time, and contacting the Heda people was just a matter of convenience. The focus was on burning, killing, and looting in the old dens of the Turkic people, causing more crimes.

To put it in a cold-blooded and heartless way, for Gao Cheng, as long as Gao Jishi can return after completing the mission, even if all the ten thousand horses are lost, it will be the result of a huge profit.

As for why he had to have a confidant like Gao Jishi, it was really [-] cavalrymen and more than [-] horses. If they went out of the fortress, they would be like a kite with a broken string, destroying the Turkic lair and throwing it away.

If the general thought that the trip was dangerous, he rebelled immediately after leaving the fortress, and lost [-] elite cavalry, Xiao Gaowang would be so heartbroken to death.

In addition to the transfer of the Gyeonggi Army and the Shanzhou Army, Gao Cheng ordered Jingzhou Inspector Hu Luguang to lead [-] cavalry and [-] infantry to go south to Yingzhou to assist in the defense of Jiangling, in order to support Xue Guyan who guarded Yiling.

He also ordered Wei Xingqing to lead [-] Liangzhou troops to Shouzhou, stationed in Shouyang, and temporarily put them under the command of Duan Shao, the governor of Shouzhou, in case the Liang people really dared to attack across the river, and supported Hezhou and Yangzhou guarded by Gao Yue and She Digan at any time.

However, Hexi Shele, Xue Huer and others commanded [-] Guangzhou troops. Once the Liang people invaded Ying and Ezhou, they would quickly go south, and all the troops were temporarily handed over to Hu Luguang's command.

Gao Cheng had no doubts about the loyalty of Hexi Shele, Xue Huer and other military officers from Kuzhi, so he asked them to take charge of the drills of the soldiers according to the instructions issued by the Zhongbingfu, and they also led the team to the battlefield.

But he was worried about the military talents of these people, so he asked them to hand over the command to people they trusted more, such as Duan Shao and Hu Luguang.

On the surface, Gao Cheng said that he didn't believe that Nanliang and Yuwentai would attack at all, but he was very honest and made many arrangements just in case.

This also allowed him to send a total of 11 troops, [-] from the Gyeonggi Army, [-] from the Bingzhou Army, and [-] from the Longyou Army. Ten thousand cavalry pawns in the season style are partial teachers, which is a coincidence.

The reason why he didn't bring soldiers from Shangzhou County was because he believed that it would be difficult to fight tough battles in the Mobei Grassland. Bringing them along would be a waste of food. Clothes, before crossing, he was not a person who stretched out his hands for clothes and opened his mouth for food.

Cui Jishu, who was fined, continued to prepare livestock. This matter started four days ago. A large number of livestock from state-run ranches in Henan and Hedong were gathering in Jinyang.

When traveling out of the fortress to fight, while carrying food, they can drive cattle and sheep away, so that they can eat meat, and they can also let the cattle carry food and ordnance, and sometimes people can use them instead of transportation, killing three birds with one stone.

Of course, it is not without troubles. The removal of a large number of farm cattle from state-run pastures will definitely affect the spring plowing next year. Many farmers will find it difficult to rent farm cattle, but there are differences in severity.

Gao Cheng's last instruction on military operations was to order Tie Fa to lead his [-] remnants of Rouran, and [-] tents of women and children to temporarily live in Shuozhou, which was the original Huaishuo Town. join forces with him.
