Chapter 630: The power changes in Tai’an City, Chen Shaobao becomes a new crown prince
At a glance, he praises the prince Zhao Zhuan for being very tolerant and having a negative attitude towards the war situation in Western Chu. The deeper meaning is that Chen Wang is sending a hidden message to him: His Royal Highness is a tolerant crown prince, and he deserves your support. If he digs further downwards, Xu Gong will feel a little chilled. The prince is still only a sensitive moment for governing the country. His Majesty the Emperor is still alive, so he persuaded or reminded a minister of the Ministry of War to clearly stand. Is it too early to say that there is any secret here? You must know that there is no terrifying secret about His Majesty’s health in Tai’an City over the years.
Could it be that
Just when Xu Gong was fighting fiercely, Chen Wang seemed to have just talked about the family matters that were neither salty nor indifferent, and soon jumped to the next question: “How long can Beiliang be guarded if the northwest gate cannot be guarded, how can we guard the next?”
Xu Gong is so experienced. Chen Wang, who was sitting quietly opposite, was silent. There was no slight wave on his face. He had already made accusations of such matters. He immediately replied: “Under normal circumstances, relying on the Northern Liang border army alone can defend for two years, but this is based on the premise that there is no major mistake or a big conspiracy between the two sides. But in fact, the two armies are in a confrontation, and you will never guess whether the opponent’s next step will be amazing or stupid. Many classic wars in history are also caused by mistakes, some are wrong, and some even have a mistake in winning by mistakes, so that some people lose inexplicably, and some people feel incredible to win themselves. If it is an ordinary confrontation between the two armies and the leader uses mediocre troops, it is nothing more than competing for the background of both sides. There is no suspense. However, the Liangmang battle cannot be compared with this, because both sides have too many famous generals.”
Xu Gong was a little fascinated, and a dazed look appeared in his eyes, “Beiliang has Chu Lushan, Yuan Zuozong, Yan Wenluan, Chen Yunchui, He Zhonghu… Which one is not smoked out one after another, but the generals Beimang who stand alone have Tuoba Bodhisattva, Dong Zhuo, Liu Gui, Huang Songpu, and Yang Yuanzan…”
Xu Gong sighed, “Almost everyone can make unpredictable variables happen to the entire battle situation.”
Xu Gong gradually became better, and he couldn’t close his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth. He held a cup but did not drink tea in the other hand, and raised his finger in the air, “Before Beiliang was included in the Liyang territory, there were two ways to choose from the south of the northern nomadic invasion. The first was Beiliang, which was the head and neck of the Central Plains, as his first choice. The army was high and often had a strong momentum. The disadvantage was that the front line was slightly longer. Even if it hit Xiangfan, which was on the waist of the Central Plains, it would be difficult to go further. He often had to plunder and return. The second was that the Jizhou border guards drilled the gap southward, and the air horses were sent to search in batches, scattered the scattered obstacles outside the pass, and on the one hand, they covered the army, and on the other hand, they plundered the villages and forced the Central Plains dynasty to retreat to the stronghold. The city was like an island hanging between the city, and the border was paralyzed. The northern barbarian cavalry invaded the south with the flow without any obstacles.
“North Mang seems to have chosenIf you choose an unwise route, you actually have no way to take immediate worries and abandon long-term considerations. The Northern Barbarians were determined to fight this dynasty, but there was no best strategy, only the middle and lower strategies to choose. Beimang can’t afford to delay, but our dynasty can afford to delay. If the Western Chu of Guangling Road is destroyed and Beimang starts another war, then it will be a real loss of battle. A stable internal land of the Central Plains and an enterprising Central Plains court are undoubtedly the bad news for the northern nomadic peoples. If Beimang attacked their Western Front first, that is, the two Liao defense lines built by our court with half of the national strength, the outsider might think that this line is closest to Tai’an City. Beimang should use troops like this, but the truth is that Beimang will not be able to go south at that time. Because the 300,000 border troops of Northern Liang were destined to echo the two Liaos on the eastern front and launch an active offensive against the Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties. Once the Beiliang cavalry is allowed to penetrate into the hinterland and enter the grassland, even if the Beimang army is lucky enough to advance all the way to Tai’an City, it will be a fate of no return. Maybe not to say that the Southern Dynasty will be gone, and even the northern royal court will be damaged.
“Since Beimang has chosen the hard bones Beiliang as a breakthrough point, you might as well take a step back. Assuming that Beimang fought hard to get rid of Beiliang, there was no time to take a break, because there would be two fierce battles to fight soon. The fatal thing is that these two wars were carried out at the same time. Beimang, who was seriously injured, had to fall into a situation of fighting on both sides. Chen Zhibao was in charge of Western Shu, and General Gu Jiantang led the army on the eastern front. It was still not a soft persimmon in front of Beimang.
“If you take another step back! Chen Zhibao failed to restrain Beimang, and Gu Jiantang’s eastern line, which was known as the solid, was completely dispersed. So how can Tai’an City be given to you Beimang? I still have the power to fight! “
Speaking of this, Xu Gong’s hand suddenly pulled from north to south, “We can retreat to the south of the Guangling River in one breath, and don’t forget that there is also the army of Zhao Bing, the king of Yanla. With Zhao Bing’s army as its core combat power, Your Majesty can easily win over 500,000 troops, which is no difficult. “
Xu Gong suddenly laughed at himself, “After that being said, Beimang can really force us to this point, it is their ability. If they win the world in the end, no one else will say that, I will be convinced, but at worst, I will just die in battle. “
Chen Wang whispered: “There is a prerequisite for all of this. “
Xu Gong nodded after a moment of silence, “The premise is that Beiliang is willing to fight to the end. “
Chen Wang said to himself: “I know that person is willing. “
Xu Gong nodded, “There is no way, who made him Xu Xiao’s son?” Anyone can retreat, but he can’t! “
Chen Wang smiled and said, “It’s hard for me to associate the young master who used to buy poetry with me and the King of Beiliang who dared to fight if he said he wanted to fight. “
Xu Gong didn’t know how to deal with it.
Chen Wang murmured: “The snow in Beiliang is as heavy as a mat. I think it’s so heavy that it’s snowing like this in Tai’an City.My hometown will only be even colder. “
Xu Gong admired this scholar who was more than 10 years younger than him. A young man from Beiliang came to Beijing to pass the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination. He never cursed a ill-blooded word about Beiliang in the officialdom of Beijing, and never concealed the little “incense” between him and the prince of Beiliang at that time. Even so, he could still be in the heart of the emperor, step by step, and even hoped to reach the top to fight for the position of future civil officials. Xu Gong could not believe the story during this period, nor did he expect Chen Wang to take the initiative to say it. And even if Chen Wang was willing to say it, no matter how brave he was, he would not dare to listen. Unless one day in the future, Chen Wang really removed the prefix of the word “Cuan Prime Minister” and became the second Zhang Julu, and Xu Gong also needed to become the second Gu Jiantang of the Liyang Dynasty.
The conversation between the two was like drinking tea. They had fun for seven or eight minutes, and there were still two or three more flavors. If they continued, they might feel that they were disgusting.
Xu Gong stood up to say goodbye. Chen Wang also stood up to see him off, and delivered him to the door, smiling and said, “Brother Xu will go to the North Line tomorrow. I will go to the Qinman Room on time, so I won’t give him off. “
Xu Gong nodded and said, “It’s okay, you and I have the opportunity to get together in the future. “
Xu Gong slowly left in the wind and snow in the inconspicuous carriage, and the traces that were only crushed by the wheels were quickly covered by heavy snow.
Chen Wang turned around and stepped onto the steps, looked up at the night, and suddenly ordered the old gatekeeper: “Old Song, prepare the carriage, I want to go and enjoy the snow. Also, remember to let someone know her. “
The old man said in surprise: “Night ban”
