I’m The King Chapter 730: : The sound of drums and horns is sharp (2)
In the empty hall, only the three highest rulers in Dayan are left. Huo Tianliang has already left, but his proposal made the three people in the hall, after being shocked, see endless hope. Geili Literature Network
"Taiwei Zhou, Doctor Tan, what do you think about this matter?" Ji Ling looked at his right and left arm, and asked in a deep voice, and the two people on the left and right, from Ji Ling's tone, had already understood that the king Actually heartbroken.
"Kumamoto is good at fighting. In the battle a few years ago, his vanguard army fought all the way to Helin City. If he can lead his troops to fight again, the meaning to me, Dayan, is self-evident. More importantly, the 30,000 soldiers of our army who are still struggling in Donghu can also escape from the sea of suffering." Zhou Yu nodded and said: "Your Majesty, the remaining 30,000 soldiers in Donghu, although they can survive It is our fault, and now they have the opportunity to live a normal life again, I think this is feasible.”
"Doctor Tan, what do you think?"
"Taiwei's words are very true." Tan Feng nodded and said, "However, according to the information I got, the 30,000 prisoners of war lived in Donghu very hard, and many of them have become weak. If there are no generals for several months or even more than half a year, I am afraid that there will be no battlefield at all. This is the first, and the second is to re-arm the 30,000 soldiers, but Donghu requires us to provide the weapons and armor the soldiers need, and now the land is cut off , How can such a large amount of weapons and equipment be transported?"
"Didn't Huo Tianliang say to go by sea? We only need to provide weapons and equipment, and he will arrange the sea route." Ji Ling said.
"If we go by sea, it means that the Qi State will intervene. How can we ensure that these weapons will be transported to Donghu in their entirety and not fall into the hands of the people of Qi? Therefore, we still have to negotiate with Qi. "Tan Feng looked at Ji Ling, "Your Majesty, the Qi State will definitely not let go of this opportunity, they will demand territory from us. They have just been severely taught by the Taiwei, and they did not get it on the battlefield. They will definitely want something on the negotiating table.”
"An extraordinary time, an extraordinary act, as long as Qi's request is not excessive, give it to him." Ji Ling gritted his teeth, "As long as Gao Yuan can get rid of his confidant's troubles, he ate ours, sooner or later he will have to give it to me." Spit it out."
"Since the king has made up his mind, then I will turn around and let Chunyuyan handle this matter." Tan Feng nodded and said.
"The 30,000 army, if we can re-arm, then my Dayan's strength will rise to a higher level, Thorpe, how dare he put an army of ours in his hinterland? Due to the situation, we have to form an alliance now, but it is not an exaggeration to say that we are the same but have different dreams!" Ji Ling sighed, "Is there anything strange here?"
Zhou Yu bowed his body, "Your Majesty, this matter is not difficult for Thorpe. Even if the 30,000 army is armed, their logistics and supplies are all in the hands of Donghu people. People will definitely be stuck on their necks in the supply of food and grass. The simplest point is to supply food and grass on a daily basis. Such an army is not a threat to them at all. What's more, they must They will also deploy troops to monitor nearby, and these 30,000 people are just a knife in Thorpe's hand to deal with Gao Yuan."
"Although we know that it is being used, it is also a good thing for us. If the waste can be used, it may be able to play a huge role." Ji Ling said with a smile, "By the way, before Huo Tianliang I have said that Gao Yuan is deployed in Hetao's army, what are the names of two important generals?"
"Luo Weiran, Chen Bin, these two were formerly under Xiong Bin's command." Zhou Yu said.
"Have Zhou Taiwei heard of these two people before?"
"I've never heard of it. It should have been a very low-ranking general in the past, one of the ranks of generals." Zhou Yu shook his head.
"This is the problem!" Tan Feng on the side sighed: "A mere general, a general, has such a powerful fighting power under Gao Yuan's hands, Brother Zhou, listen to what Huo Tianliang said After the battle, you should also understand that Gao Yuan was able to achieve such a major victory in this battle. There are two key nodes, one is Chen Bin's tenacious defense in Dubo, and the other is Luo Weiran's brazen attack. Why is such a hero so powerful? When I was in Dayan's standing army, I could only serve as a small general, a lieutenant general?"
Zhou Yu remained silent, he was naturally very clear about the joints here.
"Is it because Gao Yuan has the ability to turn stones into gold? Or these two people suddenly have the ability to turn the world upside down? Neither, my lord, this is the lack of our previous system, like Luo Weiran, Chen Bin and others, Possessing a great talent, but under the old mechanism, there is no chance of promotion at all, and they can only spend their lives in this way without a name, while a large number of idiots are stealing high positions and eating vegetarian meals. If we can't change this In the old mechanism, countless people like Luo Weiran and Chen Bin were buried. It's not that we don't have talents, but a large number of talents cannot be promoted and reused! Luo Weiran and Chen Bin are now under Gao Yuan's subordinates , one served as the army commander, the other served as the division commander, and both of them became the generals leading the army. This matter deserves our vigilance!"
"Doctor Tan is very reasonable, but we are not yet ready to take drastic measures, we can only change bit by bit, aren't we already doing it? Taiwei Zhou, you might as well step up in the army Hurry up, some time ago, Dr. Tan sent a piece of information about the promotion of officers in the Eastern Conqueror Army. In peacetime, they also have various methods to evaluate officials. Those who are capable will be promoted and those who are inferior will be demoted. You may wish to learn from it."
"Yes, it has already started to be implemented in the army. In the newly formed army, a large number of people from poor backgrounds but with real talents have been promoted. , this matter can only be done step by step." Zhou Yu said.
Ji Ling nodded and said: "Dayan wants to become stronger, but now there are two biggest enemies, one is lofty wolf ambition, and the other is years of stagnation, both of which require us to be very careful. You can't be sloppy, Zhou Yu, since Luo Weiran and Chen Bin used to be Kumamoto's subordinates, can you ask Kumamoto to send someone to lobby, if you can tell the two of them anyway, it must be a heavy blow to Gao Yuan."
"I will discuss this matter carefully with Dr. Tan after we go down. No matter whether it succeeds or not, let's give it a try. Even if it doesn't work, it will make them suspicious of each other." Zhou Yu said.
Ji Ling nodded, and looked back at a huge map of Yan Kingdom hanging behind him, in western Liaoning, Hejian and other places, it was dyed a shocking red.
"Huo Tianliang is right about one thing. Now is the place where Gaoyuan is very weak. In the west of Liaoning and Hejian, the forces of the Eastern Expedition Army are weak. This is indeed a good opportunity. We must choose one of these places. place, as a breakthrough, and use it to mobilize Gaoyuan's strength. If he can be forced to mobilize Hetao's troops back, it will create opportunities for Kumamoto. Already."
Zhou Yu stood up and walked to the map, "Your Majesty, I have been thinking about this issue before, in my opinion, if we want to do something this time, the place we should choose is neither the west of Liaoning nor the west of Liaoning. It's not Hejian, it's Anlu."
His finger poked heavily at the location of Anlu in Yuyang County.
"When we took back Yuyang County last year, the Zhengdong Army took advantage of the fire and took Anlu. Anlu has the largest copper and iron mines in our country of Yan. When the Zhengdong Army got this place, it immediately became like a tiger with wings. It used to restrict them The problem of insufficient iron ore is easily solved, so if we don’t do anything, we must take Anlu first.”
"Anlu General Zeng Xianyi used to be a subordinate of Jiang Xinliang in Yuyang County. Xinhui is a part of the East Conquest Army led by Naha, the general of the Conquer East Army. He has been at war with Qi State and is also a veteran of the battlefield, as long as he is given enough support, it is not impossible to take Anlu under a sudden attack."
Tan Feng also stood up, "Not only we know the importance of Anlu to the Eastern Conquest Army, but Gao Yuan himself also knows that his Central Army is only about 15,000 people, but in Anlu he has deployed more than 15,000 soldiers." One-third of the power, so if we want to fight Anlu, we have to make a decision from other places first, that is to say, to confuse the opponent's sight, so that they don't expect that we will attack Anlu."
Zhou Yu's eyes flickered, "You mean Liaoxi?"
"Yes, Liaoxi. Liaoxi is Gao Yuan's stronghold. He will never tolerate mistakes in Liaoxi. We have always deployed heavy troops in Langya, and the commander Hu Yanchao is an experienced general. Therefore, Let Langya move first, make the illusion of attacking Liaoxi, and use this to confuse the Zhengdong army. Gao Yuan's troops are limited now, and a large number of troops are deployed in the Hetao and Panshan areas. As long as we can successfully mobilize his troops, we will win. You can expect it.”
When it comes to military warfare, Ji Ling can only listen to it, but after seeing the analysis of the two ministers, he has a general idea in his heart. He is sketching the general military plan of the two in his mind, But Tan Feng turned around, "Your Majesty, because of Gao Yuan's big victory in Hetao this time, the restless elements in Jicheng have become active again, and Xunxiu, the new Minister of Rites of Zhengdong Mansion, is the leader of Yan Kingdom. Great Confucianism, among my nobles and courtiers of Dayan, I have a very wide network of contacts and many disciples. After this person took office, he has continuously sent people to contact these people. Yan Lingwei has already obtained a lot of conclusive evidence. At this moment, Jicheng will never tolerate anyone's wavering, I ask the king for permission, and there is no need to be merciful to these people."
"Jicheng should be cleaned up again." Ji Ling's face was as cold as ice, "Don't show mercy, the dregs have been cleaned up, and the elites who are loyal to my Great Yan will be left behind."
"Sir, please follow the king's order!" Tan Feng bowed and stood up, his eyes flashing with ruthless killing intent. 【End of this chapter】
