As soon as Zhao Yao’s words came out, Tong Guan immediately came out of the class and said: “Your Majesty, Liu Yanqing, the chief of the Northwest Yanyan Road, has been a general for generations, can fight good battles, and his 50,000 soldiers and horses under the Yanyan Road are the elite of the Western Army and have repeatedly broken through Western Xia.
Now that Western Xia is crippled, the northwest is peaceful, and it is just for Liu Yanqing to lead the soldiers and horses of Yanyan Road to conquer Liangshan Chaihao! ”
The Western Army, which is the abbreviation of the Northwest Forbidden Army of the Great Song Dynasty, is roughly divided into five routes.
The old breed is slightly similar to the public breed master, commanding the Western Army Qin Fenglu soldiers and horses.
The younger brother of the seed master Dao, the junior seed master, the commander of the Huanqing Road soldiers and horses.
Lu Zhishen was originally a magistrate under the Cao brothers.
Liu Yanqing, commander of the Yanyan Road soldiers and horses.
Yao Gu, commander of the Xihe Road soldiers and horses.
Wang En, commander of the Jingyuan Road soldiers and horses.
These five routes of soldiers and horses, from generals to soldiers, passed down from father to son, have been fighting with Western Xia for hundreds of years, and each generation of Western Army men has experienced hundreds of battles and is the most elite army in the entire Great Song Dynasty.
Especially in the late years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Western Army was the only army that could fight in the entire Great Song Dynasty.
However, although the Yanyan Road under the command of Liu Yanqing was much stronger than the other forbidden armies of the Great Song Dynasty, it was not the elite of the five routes of the Chinese and Western Army, but the existence at the bottom.
Qin Feng Road in the Seed Division Road and Huanqing Road in the Seed Division are strict in managing the army, able to endure hardships, and endure battles, and are the most elite in the Western Army.
Yao Gu’s Xihe Road and Wang En’s Jingyuan Road are also stronger than Liu Yanqing’s Yanyan Road.
And Liu Yanqing, although he was born in the door, but he was greedy for life and afraid of death, lived extravagantly, liked pleasure and pomp and circumstance, and was profligate, so the soldiers and horses of Yanyan Road were eaten by Liu Yanqing with 40% of the empty salary.
There are nominally 50,000 soldiers and horses, but in reality there are only 30,000.
Moreover, these 30,000 soldiers and horses, since they did not fight with Western Xia, have also neglected training, and their combat strength has begun to decline.
But the Great Song Imperial Court did not know this, not even Tong Guan.
The reason why Tong Guan protected Liu Yanqing was because he had served as a propaganda envoy in the northwest.
The generals of the fifth road of the Western Army, only Liu Yanqing is the most flattering to Tong Guan, and his filial piety is constant, which can be said to be Tong Guan’s doglegs.
Therefore, this time to conquest Liangshan, Tong Guan deliberately recommended Liu Yanqing, wanting to give this opportunity to make meritorious contributions to his own people.
In Tong Guan’s view, Liu Yanqing has 50,000 Western troops who have experienced hundreds of battles, while Liangshan Chai Hao only has 10,000 or 20,000 mountain thieves.
With the elite of 50,000 Western Troops fighting a hundred battles, fighting 10,000 or 20,000 water thieves can be described as a hand-to-hand approach.
If Liu Yanqing’s campaign is successful, then Tong Guan, as a recommender, is indispensable for credit and the benefits of Liu Yanqing’s filial piety.
If Liu Yanqing loses, Tong Guan can also push the responsibility to Liu Yanqing, and he is only ignorant at most.
On the royal throne, Emperor Zhao He listened to Tong Guan’s recommendation, and immediately nodded: “What Tong Aiqing said is good, so he sent Liu Yanqing, the handsome Yanlu soldiers and horses, to surround and suppress Liangshan Chai Hao!” ”
Five days later, Liu Yanqing, the governor of Yanyan Road, received the will sent by Kuaima, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses of Yanyan Road to march east.
Along the way, the prefecture capital could provide food and grass, so without taking heavy weights and people, he marched 1,200 miles in 20 days and came to the outside of Bianliang City.
Emperor Zhao He sent Tong Guan out of the city to see off the labor army, and ordered the officials and ships of the prefecture near Liangsan to assemble in Jeju and obey Liu Yanqing.
When Liu Yanqing came to Jeju, there were already 30,000 or 40,000 officials and troops here, and tens of thousands of people, plus Liu Yanqing’s 30,000 Yanyan Road soldiers and horses, and the total number exceeded 100,000.
Looking at the 100,000 people outside Jeju City, Liu Yanqing stroked his long beard and said quite smugly: “Most of the Liangshan thieves were recruited, and there was no more than half of 120,000 people occupying the mountain as kings.”
The imperial court sent 50,000 horses from Yanyan Road to encircle and suppress it, which was already killing chickens with ox knives, so why should we mobilize officials and troops from Jeju and other places. ”
The implication is that he not only enjoys this feeling of commanding hundreds of thousands of people, but also feels that the officials and troops in Jeju and other places are here to share the credit.
Jeju Taishou Zhang Shuye said: “General Manager Liu doesn’t know something, this Liangshan thief is not like an ordinary thief, and he has repeatedly defeated the imperial court officials and troops before.
Imperial Lieutenant Gao and Tong Shu’s envoys made several conquests and suppressed them, and sent 230,000 soldiers and horses before and after, but they were all killed by Liangshan thieves, and they were defeated and returned.
Now although Song Jiang and others have been recruited, but Liangshan Chai Hao, since he can entrap nearly half of Liangshan thieves to resist Zhao’an, he must have some skills, and General Manager Liu must not be taken lightly. ”
When Liu Yanqing heard Zhang Shuye say this, he immediately snorted coldly: “When Tong Shu Secretaire was in the northwest, he conquered Western Xia and Qingtang Tubo, and they were all victorious in battles, how did they lose when they reached Liangshan?”
Is it not that the officers and troops of your hinterland are unusable?
Now I have led tens of thousands of western troops here, even if I don’t use the officials and troops of Jeju and other places, I can level Liangshan and destroy that Chai Hao! ”
Zhang Shuye knew that Liu Yanqing was Tong Guan’s confidant, and immediately did not dare to say more about Tong Guan’s defeat, but just sighed and said: “It makes sense for the imperial court to let me wait and wait, and the general manager must not underestimate the enemy.” ”
Liu Yanqing’s deputy Wang Yuan also said: “As the saying goes, lions fight rabbits with all their strength, Liangshan has repeatedly defeated officials and troops, there must be something outstanding, our army must not be careless.” ”
Wang Yuan was a powerful general under Liu Yanqing, listening to him speak, Liu Yanqing nodded, but said in his heart disapprovingly: “Since the imperial court has a will, the officials and troops in Jeju and other places will march on the left and right and rear of our army.”
With my subordinate Wang Yuan, the vanguard, leading 10,000 people as the vanguard of the former army, I led the main force of the 40,000 Western Army as the Chinese army, claiming to be a 200,000-strong army to the outside world, and attacked Liangshan Chaihao! ”
Liu Yanqing’s layout is also decent, worthy of having fought a war.
With the powerful general Wang Yuan as the vanguard, he mastered the main offensive position and could ensure the safety of the road ahead.
Let the official army in Jeju and other places be divided into left and right armies and rear armies, which can not only defend his central army, but also not easy to seize merit.
When sharing the credit, Liu Yanqing can naturally take away the big head.
In Liu Yanqing’s view, his dispatch of troops this time is really killing chickens with a cow knife, and his tens of thousands of Western troops with nearly 100,000 officials and civilians from all over the country have a mighty momentum that stretches for hundreds of miles.
Any thief should be feared when he sees it, even if it is piled up with a number of people, he can pile up the Liangshan thief.
His layout and march were already very high on Liangshan Chai Hao.
As for Liangshan Water Po eight hundred li?
Liu Yanqing, who was born in the northwest, has never seen many rivers in his life, and at this moment he can’t imagine what Liangshan Water Po looks like, naturally he has no concept in his heart, he only thinks that it is a larger lake at most.
When his army arrives, if the thief dares to meet the shore of the water, then he will cover up and easily annihilate.
If the thief could not avoid the battle, then all the army would take a boat and kill Liangshan.
There are more than 100,000 people themselves, enough to throw a whip to cut off the current, how can they be stopped by a small lake?
Jeju Taishou Zhang Shuye, seeing Liu Yanqing’s attitude, had to sigh, secretly asked the Jeju officials and troops to strengthen their caution, and detained more ships for backup.
On the other side, Chai Hao had already received the news that the imperial court had sent Liu Yanqing to lead an army to conquest, and said to the generals of Liangshan with a smile: “Liu Yanqing has finally arrived in Jeju, and now the orthodox commander has killed more than 100,000 people, including the people, to Liangshan.”
It’s time for me to build a new Liangshan! ”
