The First Champion Chapter 587
The joyous atmosphere of the whole hall was condensed, both civil and military men bowed their heads and meditated. If Yun Nei lost something, the Great Wall would lose its meaning.
The Tartars can take a detour from Weizhou to attack, and then the situation will be very good, and it will return to zero.Let's start from the beginning. Without the Great Wall, even if we win the battle, we will lose our goal of defending against the enemy.
Jingzhou and even Tanzhou can be given up temporarily, because these two military states have been turned into complete military towns, and there are not many people in them.
If it is Zhan, reach out your hand to signal him to continue.
"In the early Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu were rampant, and the siege of Baideng almost killed Gaozu. The Han family had to give gifts to their relatives and offer money in exchange for the Huns not to go south. When Emperor Wudi sent Zhang Qian to the Western Regions to contact the Xiongnu's feud, the army fought bloody battles for many years. , took down the Protectorate of the Western Regions. Since then, the northern aliens have lost the opportunity to bypass the Great Wall and invade the Hetao south, while the Han army can attack the grassland from the Western Regions, encircling the grasslands on both sides, killing the Huns so that they dare not go south to herd their horses. One moment at a time."
"In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, defeating the Turks was almost exactly the same as what the Han Dynasty did. Only in the Song Dynasty, the entire Northwest, talking about the Western Regions, even Hetao was lost. So the Song Dynasty has been bullied by others for a hundred years. Why did you take the initiative to send troops."
"Now that the Western Regions are under our control, we have strong troops and horses, and the grassland is empty. Khan Hebuler, who was elected by the Mongols, only cares about the small profits in front of him. He defected to the Jurchens and worked together. What power is there on the grassland to resist us?"
"It's better to unite with the Kelie people, from the Western Regions Protectorate, pass through the foot of Tianshan Mountain, send troops to the grassland, and support the Kelie tribe to unify Mongolia. Then from the west, we will invade the Kingdom of Jin, and we will break out of the Great Wall and cooperate with them. In this way, the general trend will prevail Next, even if Lou Shi's people are brave, what's the use of it?"
Chapter 657 The Grand Decision
After Zong Ze finished speaking, the lobby of the government office fell into silence for a while.
Although Zong Ze said it very clearly, such a grand strategy still made everyone's minds buzzing.
After about a few tens of breaths, Yang Lin was the first to speak out and asked, "With such a long battle line, food and grass are replenished, and weapons are heavy, I don't know if we can keep up."
Zongze immediately pointed to Shuozhou on the sand table, and said loudly: "Your Majesty already sent someone to understand the mountains and rivers here. With the help of the Kelie people, the desert and grassland will be smooth. Seven years ago, the tea-horse trading road was opened, and because of countless merchants running back and forth, there was already more than one wide road, which was just used for transportation."
Yang Lin frowned, thinking carefully, he has a few generals who can stand alone, if he really spreads out the battle line so grandly, there are people who can be used.
Today's big battle is already a large-scale battle of national destiny. If they counterattack the grassland and encircle and suppress the Kingdom of Jin from the west and south, it will be a complete counterattack.
From defense to offense, he needs to carefully consider whether Da Song has such conditions now, and whether the country is stable enough.
Seeing Yang Lin frowning deeply, Zong Ze walked aside, asked the soldiers for a water bag, took a few sips, walked over again, and said in front of Yang Lin, "Young master, the reason why Wanyan Loushi can Three battles and three victories, relying on the army of the Mongolian Khan Hebul. Hebul was so arrogant that he gathered the originally loose Mongolian tribes. This is an enemy more terrifying than Jurchen. There are too many of them. Jurchen The population is sparse, and there are many Mongolians.
Now that the grassland is empty, it is an excellent time for us to completely eliminate this hidden danger.Otherwise, even if we win this war and defeat the Jurchen Dajin, the Mongols will no longer fight among themselves, and after they unite, they will be another great enemy in the north! "
As expected of Zongze, he has already seen the catastrophe in the future from the Mongolian army in Hebul this time.As he said, after the rise of the Mongols, they are more terrifying than the Jurchen, because their population is far from what the Jurchen can match.
Zong Ze's words undoubtedly have clearly seen the rise and fall of the alien race in this prairie.
Yang Lin's eyes suddenly opened, Zong Ze was right, the Mongols will not only be the enemy of the Han people in the future, they will be a moving natural disaster.
If Zongze's strategy is followed, the future Jurchen and Mongol enemies can be eliminated in one fell swoop, and the northern border can be kept safe.
This was a huge temptation for Yang Lin, but he was hesitant to know whether the Great Song Dynasty, which had been defending for a hundred years, had the ability to go deep into a roundabout battle.
It is impossible to make a decision on such a matter all at once, so Zong Ze is not in a hurry.Push aside and discuss the war in Yunnei with a few familiar generals, and let Yang Lin decide for himself.
After all, when this battle is really fought, what is most needed is not the brave generals who will go deep into the enemy's rear, nor the elite soldiers who occupy the city and land across the grassland, but the imperial court who will do their best to ensure the supply and dispatch of all fronts.
In this battle, the most test is the mobilization ability of the state machinery of Song Dynasty and the dispatching ability of Yang Lin and others.
There was a lot of noise in the lobby, and Yang Lin felt uneasy, so he stood up and walked out.
The generals wanted to follow, but were stopped by Lu Qian, who said with a smile, "Everyone, let Shaozai be alone for a while."
The generals returned to the hall and continued to watch the sand table and discuss the battle situation.
Yang Lin walked out of the government office and saw that the streets of Yanzhou were full of people celebrating.
Yang Lin stopped a young man casually, but saw that his face was full of tears, and he was filled with joy.
"Little brother, I'm from the south. Everyone celebrates so much today. Could it be some northern festival?"
The young man saw that he was wearing brocade clothes, and he thought he was a wealthy businessman, so he wiped away his tears and said, "Don't you know? country's general."
He shook his arm, the sleeve was empty, it turned out to be a one-armed man.
"My father and brother in my clan died at the hands of the Tartars in the north, and I was the only one left alone. How could I not be happy if my revenge was avenged?"
As the rear, Yanzhou and Jizhou accepted a large number of refugees from the north. These people are often bitter and bitter, and everyone has some blood feuds that cannot be resolved.
Yang Lin looked at the back of the one-armed young man going away, and the people celebrating in the street, and the nouns appeared in Yang Lin's mind one by one.
Yashan, Lingding Yanglitan Lingding, Zhenguo General Zhang Hongfan exterminated the Song Dynasty here, the fourth class...
Behind every noun, there are countless scenes of humiliation, Yang Lin finally made up his mind.
For thousands of years, an unknown number of people on the northern border have either died at the hands of the northern captives or fallen under the iron hooves of the desert. Since there is a chance to completely solve it, why should they be afraid.
Once the decision was made, Yang Lin no longer hesitated, and strode back to the hall.
The yelling stopped abruptly, and Zong Ze looked at Yang Lin's spirit, with a hint of joy in his eyes.Yang Lin's state is just like when he regained You Yan back then, confident and high-spirited, going forward indomitably.
After Yang Lin sat down, he didn't even say a word of nonsense, and said loudly: "Northern Han sons have fought hard for a long time, and everyone has the heart of revenge. There are many northern refugees living in Yanzhou and Jizhou. Zong Ze, you have always been good at recruiting soldiers and horses to form an army, so I will let you train them."
Zong Ze gladly accepted the order, walked out of the lobby with the arrow in hand, and went to recruit troops with great ambition.He is a real master in this respect. When half of the refugees are in the hands, forming an army in a hurry is like a nightmare, and his strength is not much stronger than that of the bandits.
But Zongze has the ability to turn decay into magic. In the history of later generations, Zongze, who has passed the prime of life, stayed in Kaifeng after almost all the north fell.Among them, there was a Hebei soldier named Yue Fei who was recruited and admired by him.
Yang Lin continued: "Wu Jie, you lead your troops to Yunnei. Duanyun Ridge is the last step of our retreat. Tell Yao Pingzhong that as long as there is still a man in armor, you can't lose every inch."
The Western Army has always had a tradition of preserving its strength, and this time it was defeated by Lou Shi, it might not be because of the preservation of the Western Army's seedlings, and the reason why they did not dare to fight to the death.
Moreover, the battle report only said that Yehu Ridge was lost, but there were not many casualties. Obviously, they didn't dare to fight to the death.However, the Western Army was indeed miserable. Starting from Xixia, they fought many fierce battles.As the commander-in-chief of the Western Army, Yao Pingzhong had to consider the feelings of his elders. How much is left of Qin Long's youth?There are widow villages all over the place, let them, the last Western army, be wiped out, even if they win, he will be stabbed in the back.
Fortunately, it didn't have much impact on the battle situation, so Yang Lin didn't plan to pursue them too much. He planned to just beat them, and then sent Wu Jie's Yizhou soldiers to support them, so that they could feel their shame and be brave.
Wu Jie clasped his fists heavily, and said in a concentrated voice: "The final general will definitely fight bloody, block Wanyan Lou's room, young master, take care."
Yang Lin nodded, stood up slightly, and said: "After finishing the city, armored soldiers, guard the vital points! Reduce casualties, defending is victory, wait for my order."
"As ordered!"
Yang Lin stood up and said: "Send someone to the front line of Jingzhou and tell Han Shizhong to release a dozen prisoners, cut off the ears and nose, and give Zong Han's head to Wanyan Aguda. Then pass a word to him, Let’s just say that Zong Han and Zong Wang are no enemies in the younger generation, and the benefactor should not forget Wu’s enmity for begging and buying, and I should come to the Great Wall to fight against me.”
Chapter 658 Make a Letter
When Han Shizhong received the order, he happily ordered to cut off the ears and noses of the captured Jin soldiers and send them to the Great Wall.
Seeing a group of people mournful and panicked, they took Zong Han's head and went to the Jurchen camp at the foot of the mountain.
On the front of the Song army, there was a burst of laughter, and there were some vulgar and ugly country slang.
All the Song soldiers knew that these people would not survive. Zong Han's death had already violated the military discipline of the Kingdom of Jin.
Going back in such a humiliating manner, I'm afraid it would look ugly, Han Shizhong pinched his waist and asked, "How much more soldiers will be killed?"
"There are [-] more troops in Yunnei. They are soldiers from Yizhou. Commander Wu Jie will personally lead the troops to support them." The messenger who sent the order replied.
