Zuo You walked to the steps from the base of the Jinxiang Hall, and couldn't help stopping slightly to look west. There are dark clouds in the sky, but the light is the brightest in the cloud at Saichan, and the sun is hidden inside. At this time, apart from listening to the bell and drum on the tower, the most intuitive way to judge the time is to look at the height of the sun.

He walked out of the imperial city from the side passage of Xuande Gate. He was about to get on the carriage waiting at his house on the Imperial Street, but he saw Wang Pu's guard of honor, and he stopped and stood aside. Sure enough, Wang Pu also got off the carriage. The officials have their own pomp, so it is easy to see on the street.

Zuo You swayed to the opposite side across the Royal Street. Wang Pu also returned his salute by the carriage.

After the etiquette, Zuo You and his servants crossed the Imperial Street together to meet and greet Wang Pu.

At this time, Zuo You looked at a construction site on the south east side of the imperial city, pointed and said, "Is that the temple built by Neiku?"

Wang Pu calmly said: "Call. All martial arts who have contributed to the country and the people in this dynasty will have a memorial tablet standing in it after death, and there are also portraits and peaceful life records carved tablets for future generations to worship and worship each year. Feeling."

Zuo You said: "I saw the memorial before the next official. It seems that it was built to burn paper for sacrifices to fallen soldiers."

"Exactly." Wang Pu said.

The two talked about ⊕9, and suddenly fell into silence by coincidence. What Zuo You wondered was whether his portrait would be hung in it, and whether he would become a respected minister in later generations... I guess Wang Pu was thinking that way.

After a while, the two looked at each other, and Wang Pu said: "It's getting late, the old man is one step ahead."

Zuo You blurted out: "Wang Shijun's house is also in the east, why not take a car together?"

Wang Pu smiled after listening: "Since we are invited, it's better to be respectful than fate."

At this time, the focus of the Great Zhou court was not to prevent courtiers from forming parties. The more serious military commanders said that their brothers and brothers did not have much control, and the officials did not care who they had personal relations with. So they ride in the same car without care.

Zuo You got into the car and asked in a low voice: "Wang Shijun also advocated using troops against Liao first?"

Wang Pu pondered for a long time and said: "At the beginning of the Han dynasty, the rule of Jing Jing rested, and the Emperor Wu of the Han went to war with the Xiongnu after he cut the domain..."

After listening to this, Zuo You wondered, what else would we have if Da Zhou had been recuperating for two generations?

Wang Pu continued: "But this time is different from the Han Dynasty. In the early Han Dynasty, after the Warring States and the Qin Dynasty, the world was depressed and the population declined sharply. It is said that the Han emperor wanted to find four identical horses. I can't find it; it was impossible to have the strength to fight the Huns at that time.

The situation in Dazhou is much better than that in the early Han Dynasty. The south of the Yangtze River in Shu area has been cultivated for decades, with little damage. The Chinese principle is sufficient for military personnel. At this time, the grain is full, and the imperial army is strong. We have the strength to continue. campaign.

In addition, the Liao Kingdom is now in civil strife, and the internal is relatively loose. The timing is good; but their strength is not damaged, as long as there is a strong leader, they can quickly restore their offensive power. Therefore, the old man advocated a few years ago that the war with Liao should not be too late. "

"It really can't be late." Zuo You totally agreed.

Wang Pudao: "From the first emperor to the present, there has been a wave of vacillation in Da Zhou (to put it euphemistically). The old man's original idea was that the country still needs to be stabilized, and he plans to fight the Liao country for a long time after he is fully prepared.

Wang Pu was surprised, but his opinion changed. If you can quickly capture Youzhou and recover Hebei first, the situation will be great. "

Zuo You is not proficient in military affairs. Although Wang Pu is an official, he has served in the Privy Council for a long time and is very familiar with military strategy. Zuo You asked: "If you can capture Youzhou, you can regain Hebei?"

Wang Pudao: "Of course you can, at least the chance of winning is big. Youzhou City is a major city, dominating Hebei, and there is no such a thick city south of Yanshan. Occupying this city, you will have a backing."

Zuo You can't think through this general statement.

Wang Pu also seemed to see that Zuo You was not an expert in military affairs. He took a sigh of relief and said solemnly: "The situation is like this. Estimated from the many battles with the Liao army over the years... …(The Great Zhou Army is now stronger than before), the Zhou Army is not afraid of the Liao Army in the field, otherwise there will be nothing to attack; stay in the city and fight with people, what about attacking?

However, after the main force of the Liao army went south, there were more horsemen and stronger mobility; they couldn't win the battle with us. As long as the leader of the Liao army knows the soldiers, he will definitely try to find opportunities, even if he loses ten times, he will be able to repel the Zhou army’s offensive and even gather and defeat the main force of the Zhou army’s infantry. Even if the Zhou army wins ten times, it cannot be completely eliminated. Liao army reinforcements did not dare to besiege the city under the threat of the Liao army...Unless the army is far more powerful than the Liao army, they dare to besiege the city and fight the Liao army reinforcements at the same time; otherwise, they will be defeated faster by internal and external forces.

But once Great Zhou took possession of Youzhou City, it was different.

The infantry guards the city, and the cavalry moves inside and outside the city. If the Liao army first attacked the cavalry outside the city, the horsemen would move closer to the city, and the infantry would fight with it; if the Liao army dared to attack the city, the infantry would form a formation against the city, and the cavalry would threaten the Liao army at any time.

The timing was not good, and Zhou Jun retreated to the city and waited for the fighter. The Liao army had no chance to remove Youzhou City, and a large number of horse soldiers marched out. As time went on, the wastage was greater than that of ours. "

Zuo You pondered for a long time, and then asked: "Is Youzhou enough forage?"

Wang Pudao: "The Liao State has always been operating Youzhou. There is a large amount of food collected inside and outside, not to mention the food that was eaten on the battlefield, and the grain and grass gathered after the initial army siege; even if it is temporary, it is too late. The Liao army is insufficient. With the siege, how to stop Da Zhou from transporting grain from the country?"

Zuo You said: "The horse soldiers harass the grain road."

Wang Puyi frowned and glanced at Zuo You: "If Youzhou is in the hands of my court and has a strong offensive strength, the main force of the Liao army must be stationed in the north, otherwise, what about their food road and rear?" /

Hebei’s wilderness is thousands of miles away. Unless the Liao Army can completely intercept the traffic to the south of Youzhou and encircle Youzhou from the periphery, it will not stop us from supplying it; harassment is inevitable, and there will be a lot of losses when sending food to the battlefield. The Great Zhou Army also has cavalry looking for opportunities Counterattack, Liao army harassment also has to take risks. "

After hearing this, Zuo You took a long sigh and said: "The officials did not intend to argue with the emperor, but the ministers are planning for the emperor and dare not know a little about it."

Wang Pu said calmly: "The old man knows it all."

Zuo You deliberately breathed a sigh of relief again: "Today is good at fighting, maybe the situation on the battlefield is better than we planned."

Wang Pudao: "Exactly, in our debate, we did not weigh the lord of the two countries. The Great Zhoutian is wiser than the lord of the Liao Kingdom... The battlefield is changing rapidly, after all, it depends on the heart of the upper and lower."

He pondered for a moment and then said: "The old man changed his opinions and there are many trade-offs. The most important reason is that even if the Northern Expedition fails, with His Majesty's knowledge, the situation will not be bad; the situation of the Liao Kingdom at this time still cannot What about us."

Wang Pu became more and more sudden after hearing this. At this time, the court was full of emperors, because the emperor would not be defeated if he prepared the emperor according to experience.
