Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1182 Li Changsheng and Zhang Guo's Mood

The weather has become, and it is time for the Tiger Wing Army to go north. "Wang Xiu's words followed the strengthening of the Song Dynasty's control over Sanfoqi. The South China Sea countries were under the power of the Xing Dynasty, and they dared not fight, especially because of the existence of this god of death, who would slaughter those who dared to resist. I don't have any thoughts.

In this way, the overseas and western states of the three armies continued to move forward, and the ships guarding the navy and the sailors who injected the chariot came into contact. A small-scale conflict occurred between the two sides. It should be said to be an encounter, a big collision that no one expected.

Zhuan is the most powerful country in ancient Tianzhu. During the Zhenzong era, he came to the Song Dynasty to pay tribute. Of course, he also had ambitions for the South China Sea. Sea ships kept appearing in the waters of West Java, which was destined to collide with the Song Dynasty.

These are trivial matters. The Great Song Dynasty did not have the ambition to develop westward, but to consolidate the surrounding areas of the South China Sea, explore the unknown south, and then achieve great geographical discoveries through navigation. In Wang Xiu's words, the ancestors are all in the Shan Hai Jing, After measuring the topography and properties of the world, we unworthy descendants have lost the things of our ancestors, so we can only follow the footsteps of our ancestors to explore the world.

Whether the feat can be accomplished depends on the support of overseas military states, and the ability to effectively maintain overseas military states. The key is the cochin problem, which has also been put on the agenda to be resolved in the near future. There are very far-fetched reasons. To put it bluntly, it is to cover up the expansion .

Although this fig leaf is a true history, it still cannot conceal the conquest of the Nonglong Empire. The empire, once famous for its abundance, has become extremely powerful for ocean expansion.

The two armies of the Southern Sergeant Division have been deployed, and the guard water army Yazhou Dazhai is also sharpening their knives. The overseas military states are also eyeing. Champa and Chenla have reached an agreement. They will advance and retreat with the Song Dynasty. What is lacking is a Excuse.

Sending troops naturally needs an excuse.At least they can keep their face. Of course, they don't lack excuses, they are just integrating resources.

At this time, Li Changsheng and Zhang Guo followed Wang Ang into Beijing to discuss the final strategy. The cochin issue could not be delayed any longer, and the Song Dynasty began to make a final decision.

"To be appointed as the governor of the capital, really...hey." Li Changsheng didn't know what to say. The Nanhai circle that he worked so hard to solve was about to solve the cochin problem, and he actually handed over the fruit that he was about to get to others. It's so frustrating.

However, no matter how aggrieved he was, he had to accept his fate. This was Wang Xiu's personal transfer order, without any tactfulness, directly stating that he was asked to take on the great task of the Northern Expedition.Usually, whether it is the Privy Council, the Ministry of War, or even the transfer orders between the upper and lower levels of the army, they are very tactful and polite.

On the contrary, Zhang Guo was overjoyed, his chance finally came, and said with a smile: "Third brother, you can be content! The head of the mountain gave you the job that others can't earn. If others see you complain, Don’t throw yourself into the sea.”

Li Changsheng rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "Hmph, you're a good boy, if the army goes north, the sea ships will be the only ones to beat you, but you can lead the Tiger Wing Army's prestige, no wonder you will be happy."

Zhang Guo was trembling all over, he couldn't be in a better mood, he is well-known in the South Sea countries, Zhang Butcher's reputation is not built, it is enough to stop children from crying at night.

However, he is not satisfied with small fights. In his eyes, the countries in the South China Sea are just small barbarian states. He is invincible in all directions. It is really boring to count 3 to [-] people. Last time The Allied Forces battle, which is also the Allied Forces of several countries, cannot be compared with the Jin Army at all. Commanding an army of [-] to fight and take Huining directly is what life wants.

The Tiger Wing Army has expanded into six armies, none of which are too large. There are two battalions in the north and south, the southern battalion is larger, and the northern battalion has two armies with more than 2 people. It has also expanded during the war, but it is less than [-]. , The Northern Expedition was mainly fought by the horse infantry. The Marshals of the Privy Council never thought about expanding the Tiger Wing Army.

"Okay, my third brother, hurry up and see the head of the mountain." He is different from Li Changsheng when he is refreshed on happy occasions.

When the two came to the study, seeing Wang Xiu present, they couldn't help saluting, but Wang Xiu said gently, "Okay, my family doesn't need to be too polite." When they had time to serve tea, they asked again: "How about the new job, have you ever been satisfied?"

Li Changsheng coughed twice, nodded in embarrassment, and didn't answer. Can he be satisfied?On the contrary, Zhang Guo frowned, and said loudly: "The head of the mountain knows the students' ambitions, so he made it perfect. The students are very grateful."

"Slick tongue, haha." Wang Xiu has been in the top position for a long time, but he can listen to flattery, and he can hear Zhang Guo's sincere words.

Li Changsheng glanced at Zhang Guo, seemed a little dissatisfied, and said indifferently: "Sir, the deployment of Cochin has been completed, and it may not be appropriate to go north at this time."

"Who said we're going north?" Wang Xiu asked with a strange expression.

Li Changsheng frowned slightly. As a general at the level of the capital school, he knew the movements in the army like the palm of his hand, but he got a negative conclusion from Wang Xiu, so he was at a loss.

"The head of the mountain wants..." Zhang Guo widened his eyes and looked at Wang Xiu in surprise, as if he had realized something, but he was not sure.

"Oh, what am I going to do? Let's hear it." Wang Xiu was interested in Zhang Guo's reaction, but wanted to laugh at this guy's attitude.

"Shanchang, Jiaozhi is just a tribe in a small state. The imperial court attacked from the north and the south, and recruited Zhenla and Zhancheng soldiers, which gave them enough face. It doesn't matter if the north and south use troops at the same time." Zhang Guo said very plainly, but he looked at Wang Xiu from time to time, Hope to confirm what I think.

Li Changsheng secretly scolded himself for being confused, and actually fell into a misunderstanding of thinking. It is not unheard of to start a war on the two fronts. Back then, when he wanted to attack party members, he also recruited a large army to crusade against the South China Sea, and stationed heavy troops to prepare for the battle against Jurchen.Compared with that war, there were elite soldiers from various armies in the South China Sea participating in the battle, and there were heavy soldiers from the two armies of the Southern Guards. Apart from the heat and smog, Cochin was really not that difficult.

Even if it is hot and smoky, so what, let’s not talk about Zhenla and Champa soldiers, the state soldiers of various overseas armies, and the Southern Sea Fleet of the Guard Navy have long adapted to tropical warfare, that is, the two armies of the Southern Guard It's not easy to say, it should be said that a sledgehammer was used.

Wang Xiu looked at Zhang Guo appreciatively, but he didn't expect this kid to grow up, even surpass Jing Bo and Qiu Yun, and catch up with Feng Yuan.

Li Changsheng can't be counted. This kid has a good time and doesn't have much record. On the contrary, his strategy is more prominent, and he mainly commands sea ships. Unlike others, he is a team of heroes. He said with a smile: "Going north still needs to plan the timing. The right time, place and people are indispensable."

"Sir, are you talking about Korea?" Li Changsheng clarified his thoughts, and his ability to make strategic judgments allowed him to grasp the direction of the problem in an instant.
