The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 529

I just said a few words.Fan Liangfu stopped and took a peek at me.Then he continued: "However, Caomin thought that the Mongols have been operating in the Central Plains for decades. Our army will win the Northern Expedition. It will not be achieved in a day. We can't rush for quick success. We should take it slowly. Therefore, Caomin . Grassroots..."

"Liang Fu. But it's okay to say."

Fan Liangfu plucked up his courage and said: "Your Majesty, the grassroots think that our army should give up the plan to attack Nanyang for now."

"Give up." I was a little surprised.Also a little upset.Since the battle of Xiangyang.I formulated a battle plan for the Northern Expeditionary Army on the Central Route to take Dengzhou and Nanyang first.Fan Liangfu proposed to give up attacking Nanyang.This made it difficult for me to accept for a while.

"Yes, Your Majesty. From Dengzhou City to Nanyang, there is only one road through Liaohe Town. And this road has a wide terrain. It is very suitable for the Mongolian cavalry. Unless the firearms I am facing can completely restrain the Mongolian cavalry. Otherwise, my own casualties will be very high. Big. Therefore, the grassroots suggested. Use a surprise soldier all the way. Go north first. Take Bianliang directly."

My heart skipped a beat.Asked: "What is the reason?"

Speaking of which.Fan Liangfu seemed to become more fluent as he spoke: "Your Majesty. The reasons are as follows. First of all, Bianliang is the capital city of our dynasty. Restoring Bianliang. Its significance and influence are very important. It can not only inspire people in our dynasty. It can also make people belonging to the Yuan Dynasty The hearts of the Han people in the north were touched; secondly, the main Mongolian army was divided into east, middle, and west. The two armies of the east and west were restrained by the Jianghuai army and the Sichuan army of our dynasty respectively. The middle army was all in Nanyang. From Dengzhou To Bianliang. There is basically no Mongolian army stationed along the way. Even Bianliang. The defenders in it are less than [-]. And they are not elite. As long as our army is fast enough, Bianliang should be taken easily; again. From Mongolia Middle Road It can be seen from the burning of Wadiandu Bridge by military fire. They also have the same idea. Our army will send troops to Nanyang immediately. Therefore, the large army will gather near the town of Liaohe. I hope to hit our army on a wide ground with the speed and impact of cavalry. Therefore, our army went north to Bianliang by surprise; the last point. Once the city of Bianliang is recovered, the Mongols will definitely send troops to take it back. But where will they send their troops? There are two possibilities. .Although the fighting power of the Qi Xue army is strong. But the number is small. It may not be able to win well in the siege battle. And the [-] new troops recruited by Kublai Khan need at least two or three months of training before they can have a certain combat power. Therefore Not to worry about. The second is Ashu’s Central Route Army. As soon as the Central Route Army moves, my army in Dengzhou City will follow suit. At that time, Ashu’s troops want to retake Bianliang. Naturally, they will not besiege or attack. Whether it is That way. Our army can rely on the fortification of Bianliang City to carry out a city defense battle. That may be another Xiangyang battle."

After listening to Fan Liangfu's long speech.I realized at once that I had made a mistake.Too impatient.Always thought that firearms were invincible.It is hoped that the main force of the Yuan army will be wiped out in the shortest possible time.Therefore, when considering the problem, it is based on the maximization of benefits.There is no comprehensive assessment of the situation.and.All the generals under me also because of blind obedience to me.subtly affected.But Fan Liangfu was young.What to say.The second is because I don't have much contact with me.Not yet affected by me.Therefore, it is possible to analyze the current situation comprehensively.

I made myself a god.But what if God made a mistake.Since the Battle of Xiangyang ended.The trajectory of history has been completely shifted.My foresight also came to an end.Consider the problem comprehensively.So as not to be biased.

"Everyone, what Fan Liang said just now is what Fan Aiqing said. What do you think?"

Fan Liangfu heard me call him Fan Aiqing.I was overjoyed.Obviously.The emperor has already approved his view.

After a moment of silence.Lu Wenhuan first said: "Your Majesty, Fan Liangfu's strategy does not conflict with our army's plan. It just delays the time for our army to attack Nanyang. The general agrees. Our army can send a group of troops to surprise Bianliang."

Lu Wenhuan is experienced.It just replaced Fan Liangfu's "abandon" with the word "delay".It sounds much more pleasing to the ear.

Jiang Wanzai said: "Your Majesty, the last general also agrees. Our army split up and moved. We took Bianliang first by surprise. In this way, we can give full play to the strengths of our army. Annihilate the Yuan army in the battle of defending the city. Use firearms It is not a problem to defend Bianliang; it can also allow Ashu to take care of one thing and lose another. This will give our army the initiative and the best time to attack Nanyang."

"Okay." I thought for a while.made up his mind. "Since that's the case, then immediately discuss the division plan. The so-called military is precious and fast. I have decided to send troops tomorrow. Which general is willing to lead the army to attack Bianliang."

"The final general is willing to go." Xie Daolin asked for orders first.

"The last general, Wu Song, is willing to go."

. . . . . .

All the generals are vying for the first place.Recover Bianliang, the capital of Song Dynasty.It should be famous in history.For such a credit.Since anyone is willing.

Jiang Wanzai said: "Your Majesty. Duanping entered Luoyang more than 30 years ago. The veteran did not participate. Let the veteran lead the army this time. Let's recover Bianliang."

Regarding Jiang Wanzai's ability.I am relieved.According to Fan Liangfu.It is not difficult to capture Bianliang City.It's just that what happens next is relatively unpredictable.It is not difficult to keep Bianliang.But the grain road from Dengzhou to Bianliang may become the only big problem.

but.This is completely different from when Duanping entered Luoyang.

I thought for a while and said, "Jiang Aiqing obeys the order."

"The end is here."

"I appoint you as the commander-in-chief. Lead Lu Shikui's Division No.19 of the Xiangyang Military Region, Wenzhang's Division of the First Division of the Yulin Army, Duan Donglou Division of the Xingfu Army, and Meng Tianxiang Division of the Zhongshun Army. Set off tomorrow night. The troops will enter Bianliang."

"Yes. The order of the last general."

"General Zhao Huai obeys orders."

"The end is here."

"I appointed you as the deputy commander. Assist Jiang Aiqing in commanding the battle against Bianliang."

"Yes. The order of the last general."

"Fan Liangfu. I will appoint you as a marching counselor and marching guide. You will be temporarily awarded the rank of sixth rank. You will be rewarded for your merits in the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. The general will obey the order." Fan Liangfu said happily.first.The emperor adopted his suggestion.Second, this test is considered to have passed.

"Gongsun Xiaochen. Send people to Bianliang immediately. Tell Longya in the city to get ready. Stock up on food first."

"Yes. The general will obey the order."

"Jiang Aiqing. You gather the relevant personnel to discuss the attack on Bianliang."

"Yes. Your Majesty."

"General Lu Wenxin obeys orders."

"The end is here."

"Starting tomorrow. For three consecutive days. You personally lead the soldiers of the Heitan Regiment to investigate the road leading to Liaohe Town in Nanyang."

"Yes. The order of the last general."

"Tian Xiuyan."

"The end is here."

"You lead the No.17 Army of the Lin'an Military Region to investigate the road leading to Wadian Town in Nanyang. And prepare to build a bridge. Make it clear to Ashu. Our army will attack Nanyang at any time."

"Yes. The order of the last general."

"General Wu Songhan. You send a battalion of troops to garrison Dengzhou City. They are responsible for the security of the city. Remember, do not disturb the people. Except for this county government office, other places are not allowed to enter without permission. If there is no rest place for the time being, it is even sleeping in the common people. Under the eaves of the house. You are also not allowed to enter the house. Violators are in the army's office."

"Yes. The order of the last general."

"Okay. The rest of the people will follow me back to the camp outside the city."

"Yes. Your Majesty."

The next evening.According to the plan discussed by Jiang Wanzai and others.Twenty thousand Song troops marched north one after another.It is consistent with what Fan Liangfu said.Basically, there was no obstruction from a large number of Yuan troops along the road.Even if there is a small group of yuan troops.It was also quickly wiped out by the Zhongshun Army who served as the vanguard.

Perhaps Kublai Khan thought so.Song Jun adopted a step-by-step approach.It won't be like Duanping's entry into Luoyang back then.Go deep alone.Once the back road is cut off.There is not enough food and grass.will fall into a dilemma.

Day and night all the way.Bypass Xuchang and other important towns.The army successfully arrived at Yangzhengmen Village, [-] miles south of Bianliang City, in the early morning of September [-]th.The village is built on the hillside.Very hidden.Just suitable for Tibetan soldiers.

In front of the village.The marching guide Fan Liangfu said: "Master Jiang, this is Yangzhengmen Village. When I traveled to the north before, because the gate of Bianliang City was closed at night, I rested here. About five miles from the north of the village. After leaving the mountain, the terrain is flat. .”

Jiang Wanzai nodded and said: "It's almost dawn. Send the order down. Rest on the spot. General Lu Shikui. Send a battalion of troops to blockade Yangzhengmen Village. General Meng Tianxiang. Your troops go to the mountain pass ahead. Be in charge of security."

"Yes. My lord."

At the end of the hour (nine o'clock).Fan Liang changed his attire again.Wen Zhang, who was also in casual clothes, went straight to Bianliang.

Since the age of 15.Fan Liangfu was arranged by the unknown monk.I travel alone for two to three months every year.hour.In Bianliang City, Fan Liangfu met Meng Huanshan, a low-ranking officer in the Mongol-Han army.This Menghuan mountain was once worshiped under the master Zhiyun of Daxiangguo Temple in Bianliang.Learn a good boxing technique.And Master Zhiyun is the registered disciple of the unknown monk.It is in Daxiangguo Temple.The two were able to meet for the first time.We also exchanged ideas when we met.Fan Liangfu won a small victory with one move.Meng Huanshan, who loves martial arts, admired him.Meng Huanshan saw that Fan Liangfu was young.Renewed goodwill.Then they became brothers.

look from afar.I saw a dozen yuan soldiers standing outside the gate of Bianliang.People who entered the city are being checked.

Fan Liangfu said: "General Wen. It seems that the guards in Bianliang City are much tighter than before. You will follow your subordinates for a while. Be wronged for now. Be dumb. Don't let the defenders hear your southern accent."

"Okay. General Fan. Let's go."

Everyone entering the city needs to show ID.They will be released only after being inspected by the defenders.

When it was Wenzhang's turn.Fan Liangfu said: "Master Jun. This is my bookboy. Because he was born deaf and dumb. The government office did not issue an identity certificate for him. I hope Master Jun can help me."

The defenders saw Fan Liangfu dressed gorgeously.It's still quite polite: "This Mr. Fan. There is an order from the top. From the beginning of this month. Anyone without identity certificates is not allowed to enter the city. Don't make things difficult for me, sir."
