Chapter 1074 Before defeat, Wang Yan was innocent

Chapter 1074 Before defeat, Wang Yan was innocent
In the Xixia camp, a group of people stood at the city tower and looked at the more than a hundred people shouting and cursing in the distance.

"General, are we going to let Song Jun curse like this?"

"Wang Yan has sinister intentions. In less than half a month, our troops have lost two thousand men. In the past half month, the opposite side has increased its troops by 7,000, bringing its strength to 15,000. I don't know their thoughts, so don't act rashly. If we start a war rashly, we will be punished. Sorry."

Ye Lizhong sneered, "I won't accept the move. Let's see what Wang Yan can do. I have already received the news that the Song people have no plans to attack us. It was Wang Yan who secretly trained troops to provoke provocation after being transferred to Yanzhou. I really didn't expect it. , this Wang Yan is so knowledgeable, he is actually my biggest enemy. I won’t accept the move, let’s see what happens to him named Wang. If my prediction is correct, the person who was scolded by Song Ting is already on the way. How dare he come to provoke?"

"General, we dare not go to war now."

"Don't I know? If you don't accept it, will you lead a hundred men to kill him?" Ye Lizhong glared at his short-sighted men. The truth is always so sad.

It was impossible for him to admit that he had been singled out by the centurions. If he continues to fight, he may die...

He clenched his fists and looked at the centurions two hundred meters away shouting curses in unison...

"Alang, this Xixia barbarian is not good enough. He doesn't dare to come out after only half a month?" Xiao Dongliang hugged his shoulders and curled his lips with a look of disdain on his face.

Zhong E answered on the side: "Zhizhou, there must be too many soldiers gathered in Qingjian. Although Xixia has also increased its troops, Zhizhou's subordinates are all Yanzhou elites, so Ye Lizhong and others dare not act rashly."

"It makes sense." Wang Yan waved his hand, "Ming Jin withdraws his troops."

The Imperial Guards on the side rang the golden gong obediently, and the sharp gong sound was tinkling, and their throats were filled with curses and smoke. The Xiangjun soldiers came back cursing.

They were really angry. After all, they had been undergoing psychological construction for a long time. They were transferred from Yanzhou and reorganized. They were all rushing to die. It had been brewing for several days. As a result, the Xixia people stopped coming out. How can we not be angry?

Looking at the soldiers who were cursing and walking back, Wang Yan smiled: "It seems that there is no chance here. Send my military order to camp at Dantou Village today."

Zhong E was stunned for a moment and said, "Zhizhou is leaving now?"

"I have been harassing you for half a month, and now the Xixia people have reduced their heads and become bastards. What am I still doing here? This group is training troops and patrolling the border. The Xixia people here are afraid of being killed, so they will naturally go to the next place to continue killing. . For half a month, I have guaranteed that there will be 2,000 casualties on the opposite side. They cannot withstand it. We will wait until we kill all the Yanzhou defense lines to see if the situation has changed. Zizheng, the fate of soldiers is on the battlefield after all."

"What about Judge Dee?"

Wang Yan smiled softly, patted Zhong E's shoulder, turned around and walked down the tower, without any hesitation at all, he simply organized the army and set off...

Zhong E didn't say any more nonsense, even though he really wanted to do things with this magistrate. Because although the thighs are not thick, they are very hard and awesome. Anyway, Wang Yan has been in Qingjian for half a month, and nothing has happened to him.

It would definitely not be like this in normal times. From time to time, people would come to monitor and cause trouble, and from time to time, he would be asked to meet with the pacifier. Delays in food and salary were even more common. He spent half of the year running to the government office to collect food and salary.

It's not that they don't give, but when they give, how much they give, what's the quality of the food, and whether it's enough.

But this half month coincides with the delivery of food and wages, which is called punctuality. The food cannot be said to be the best, but it is definitely not bad. It is a mixture of new and old food, and the quantity is not missing at all.

That person was from the transfer office. He was well behaved when he came, didn't say a word nonsense, and ran quickly after the delivery was completed. This is a deterrent. He had never seen how powerful Wang Yan's intimidation was before, so he knew that everyone was afraid of Wang Yan. This half month had opened his eyes.

Moreover, he also learned a lot of knowledge and deeply felt Wang Yan's profound knowledge and unparalleled military strategy. From training troops to leading troops, from marching to fighting, he is proficient in everything.

In the pure battle between him and Wang Yan, Wang Yan had used different postures to destroy Xixia eight times. He couldn't find any fault with him. This was terrifying...

While Zhong E and others solemnly paid farewell, Wang Yan took a carriage and left Qingjian with less than 5,000 people.

But everything didn't go as planned. Not long after they set off, something happened within ten miles of their journey.

"Alang, the pacifier sent someone to deliver a message."

"What about the letter?"

"Oral message, with the order of the pacifier."

Wang Yan sat up lazily, bent down and walked out of the carriage. He looked at a clerk and two sergeants who were riding slowly along with the carriage and glanced at them: "Tell me."

"Xiangong Cheng ordered Wang Zhizhou to return to Yanzhou for a meeting as soon as possible, and at the same time withdraw the Xiang army." The clerk cupped his hands, his voice was not very confident, and he did not even dare to look into Wang Yan's eyes.

Wang Yan waved his hand, summoned several army commanders who were wandering slowly with him, and ordered: "You will continue marching to Dantou Village. What we did in Qingjian, we will do in Dantou Village."

"Yes, sir."

"Let's go." Wang Yan waved his hand to disperse the crowd, then asked the horseman to drive back to Yanzhou, and brought a team of 100 people as a guard.

The clerk on the side saw how Wang Yan was disobeying his order. He didn't dare to say anything nonsense. He said hello to Wang Yan and hurried back to report the news.

The current Shaanxi Road Economic and Strategy Envoy is Cheng Kan. This person took office at about the same time as Wang Yan. He was considered an acquaintance of Wang Yan. He had also been involved in political affairs before and was considered to be a prime minister.

It was because of Wang Yan that he was able to become a political advisor, and it was also because of Wang Yan that he came down. In fact, he is not an exception, so he is not alone. After all, Wang Yan was too ruthless and involved a wide range of people. Many people's career trajectory has changed because of him.

Wang Yan spent two days leisurely before wandering back to Yanzhou and met Cheng Kan, a relatively rich old boy.

After the two parties met and greeted each other, Wang Yan asked directly: "I wonder what the important matter is for Mr. Cheng to find a subordinate?"

"Zi Yan, you must know it well. Apart from leading the army to stir up trouble, what else can you do?"

"What are the instructions from the officials, political affairs hall, and privy council?"

Of course Cheng Kan understood what Wang Yan meant. It meant that he was troublesome, and of course he was very unhappy.

"I am the Shaanxi Road Economic and Social Envoy. I am in charge of border affairs and lead the Western Army. What can Ziyan teach me?"

"Don't dare."

Wang Yan cupped his hands and said, "However, Xiaguan knows the affairs of Yanzhou and also leads the Xiang army. The border of Yanzhou also belongs to Xianguan's territory, and the imperial army at the border is commanded by Cheng Gong, but the land is under the jurisdiction of Xianguan. The lower officials reorganized and trained the Xiang army, and trained our troops with the troops of Xixia. The men killed the enemy with their lives, causing more than 2,000 enemy casualties in half a month, and gained 2,000 elite soldiers from the Xiang army. They were broken up and reorganized, and more than 5,000 capable soldiers were obtained.

As for provoking matters, Cheng Gong's words were wrong. Since the Qingli Peace Conference, the Xixia army has repeatedly made provocations, and there has never been a day of real peace in the border areas. Why can Xixia do it but Song Dynasty cannot do it? Cheng Gong knows that from the first half of the battle to the sixteenth day, no matter how our army called the formation, they could not come out. Only through war can peace be achieved. "

"I'm just afraid of your plan to increase the number of troops by 7,000, so I don't dare to act rashly."

"It is also true that the enemy suffered more than two thousand casualties."

Cheng Kan shook his head repeatedly: "The loss of 2,000 enemies now will not affect the overall situation. Have you ever thought about what will happen if the war breaks out again because of your reckless behavior?"

"It's just fighting."

"It's easy to say, how can we be an enemy? And there are Khitan who are eyeing us. If you make a mistake, the state of China will change its owner, and the people will be killed. You and I will be sinners for the ages."

"Mr. Cheng is wrong." Wang Yan shook his head calmly, not afraid of the so-called kidnapping of the overall situation at all. He said, "Mr. Cheng and I took office one after another. You should know how I have behaved for most of the past year, and you should also know what the problems are in Yanzhou. . Doesn’t Mr. Cheng think that this is the case only in Yanzhou?”

"Don't rush things, always plan them slowly."

"How can I not know this truth? But no matter how Xu Tu takes action, there is always something to do. If there is no action, how can we figure it out? Like the two of us drinking tea and discussing things, and then we just stop talking? To this day, I have never I heard that in border prefectures and counties, there are some places that organize state affairs.

Everyone in the court only talked about destroying Xixia and restoring the sixteen states of Yanyun. Once you talk about side things, don't touch it lightly. But among the princes in the court, who has solved what problem? What measures are taken? I have never seen it, let alone heard of it. Now that Duke Cheng has talked about the overall situation, why don't you teach me how to plan for breaking the summer? Duke Cheng has come up with a strategy. If it works, I will be willing to be the sword in Duke Cheng's hand. "

"You..." Cheng Kan trembled with his hands and glared at Wang Yan angrily, but seeing Wang Yan's disinterest, he put down his hands helplessly.

Wang Yan's words are very clear. If you can't tell me something, don't talk about the overall situation, and don't point fingers at me. How could Cheng Kan not be angry? He had no respect for him, an old man who was almost sixty years old.

"What strategy do you have?" "Not much strategy." Wang Yan spread his hands, "But it's better than talking about the overall situation without taking action. I'll train my troops first, dampen Xixia's spirit, and kill all of his 8,000 people. "

"If my two families start a full-scale war, what will you do?"

"Just fight, it's better than talking about the big picture and doing nothing." Wang Zhizhou mocked his superiors, paused, and then said, "Wang Yan is not guilty until he is defeated!"

Eight words, said sonorously and powerfully.

"I will definitely report it to the official family!"

"Mr. Cheng is free to do as he pleases." Wang Yan smiled and said, "Mr. Cheng, let's have some tea. You and I just have different political opinions, so please don't harm our friendship. I have a favor to ask of you."

Just now you, you, me, me, and now you are a lower official?
Old Cheng looked sideways and snorted: "It can't be done!"

Wang Yan was indeed a bit of a bully. He just mocked someone and then asked them to do something for him.

But he didn't care, and said to himself: "I want to train a fine cavalry, but the number is not large, three thousand is enough. I also hope that Duke Cheng will dispatch a group of fine horses to join my Yanzhou Xiang army. I, the Yanzhou Yamen press The market price was 30% higher than Cheng Gong's money and grain. If Cheng Gong refused, Xianguan sent a letter to discuss with the three yamen. Earlier, when Xianguan was sent to Hangzhou, he had bought fine military equipment. Now he is buying war horses, and he must be for the Song Dynasty. The three yamen will definitely agree."

Cheng Kan let out a long breath: "I'll give you five hundred."

"We need excellent war horses." Wang Yan emphasized the word 'excellent'.

"Humph!"

Cheng Kan said no more, put down the tea cup in his hand, and walked away.

"Congratulations to Mr. Cheng."

Although Lao Cheng was angry and the conversation was unpleasant, Wang Yan still sent the person out of the official residence with dignity and courtesy.

After seeing off Lao Cheng, he began to sit down and work on his work for the past half month.

He was not afraid of Cheng Kan's complaint, as if the capital didn't know what he had done. Half a month was enough for news exchanges, and no one said anything.

Again, the foundation of his career is his extremely strong ability. You can make money without causing trouble to others. Hangzhou is still the fifth largest tax-paying state, and is getting closer to fourth. You know, Beijing is different from other state capitals. The population size, economic development, etc. are not comparable to Hangzhou. From this, we can see how awesome Wang Yan is.

Of course, there are comparisons. Fan Zhongyan has been working in Qingzhou for two years, and he has not reached the situation that Wang Yan has in Hangzhou. He still needs to ask Wang Yan in his letter about the intentions of various policies and the connection between some things. Fan Chunren has also worked as a county magistrate for two years, but he still hasn't figured out how to handle a county.

Wang Yan has been working in Yanzhou for more than half a year. It is completely new to the naked eye. There are construction sites everywhere and the economy is developing quite well. Although, Wang Yan did not pay a penny of tax to the capital. However, the capital's subsidies were not excessive, and an army with high combat effectiveness was built.

This is ability.

Therefore, Wang Yan is very confident that absolutely no one will replace him at this time. Even if he really provokes another war between Song and Xia, if he can solve the trouble, then he will not be in trouble.

The current Zhao Song Dynasty has no enterprising spirit. He cannot reform internally and cannot win external wars. Perhaps no one wants to change or fight. Anyway, life can be lived and relatively stable, and no one wants to ruin this situation.

It's just that Wang Yan is a variable. No one wants to see him stay in the capital, nor do they want him to rule in an already prosperous area. After all, the big families in those places have connections, and they are afraid that Wang Yan will do what happened in Hangzhou again. They are the ones who are unlucky.

Even if Wang Yan is not an official, Wang Yan can write books, give lectures, travel around the world, and coerce scholars, it is just as terrifying. There is really no place to put Wang Yan. He is the one who has the power to do things, and the one who has no power has to seize the power to do things.

Everyone knows that Wang Yan is sincere to the Song Dynasty and serves the Song Dynasty wholeheartedly, but absolutely no one hopes that Yanzhou will be really good if Wang Yan becomes an official in his hometown...

Wang Yan is not afraid of being transferred. Anyway, if he doesn't fight the Xixia people, the Khitans, the Dali people, or the mountain people in Lingnan, then he has to fight his own people. Someone has to let him fight...

Lao Cheng was quite reliable in his work. After the unhappy separation, he brought in five hundred war horses. They were all good horses, at least no worse than Xixia's war horses. This was enough. Wang Yan paid quickly and delivered the goods on site.

It is well known that Zhao Song lacked war horses, and the cavalry's combat effectiveness was not very good. Wang Yan has been buying war horses, and he has not stopped since he arrived in Yanzhou. He has already started cavalry training, but he never dislikes having too many war horses.

Of course, Lao Cheng was also a man who kept his word and actually submitted a letter to Wang Yan. Leaders participating in subordinates is a matter that is laughed at, but no one in the capital laughs at Cheng Kan. Instead, they feel sorry for him and secretly take pleasure in his misfortune.

Zhao Zhen appeased Cheng Kan, and also issued an order to reprimand Wang Yan, asking him to take care of state affairs and not to provoke a war between Song and Xia.

In this regard, Wang Yanquan should fart.

After handling some matters, he went to the front line again and led his Xiang troops around. While inspecting the situation, he challenged Xixia to a duel and continued his biological and chemical warfare.

Of course Xixia's generals are all Qi-passing. But the general was good at this point and was not convinced. They all think that others are useless and that other people's soldiers are not as good as their own.

Therefore, in the face of Wang Yan's active provocation, neither of them could bear it and did not listen to the advice at all. They also unanimously chose to make a duel with Wang Yan's Xiang army.

It's just a centurion, no big deal. At the beginning, they will send out all their elite soldiers in order to get the upper hand. But the result is often a lose-lose situation.

They will think that Wang Yan has sent the same elite soldiers, so they will tacitly choose to continue to send elite soldiers into battle, and continue to lose both sides. As everyone knows, Wang Yan's Xiang army developed in a balanced manner. That's it, until after a few battles, the elite suffered heavy losses, and they all stayed behind closed doors and became bastards.

They all admitted that they shouted too loudly at first...

After all, it was no longer time to clear the stream. Under the leadership of the veterans, the new recruits performed better and their combat effectiveness soared. Moreover, they all knew about the situation of the thousand or so people who had been killed in the previous battle. Not many of them really died. Quite a few of them could come back after being rehabilitated, and they knew it in their minds. The group of warriors at the back were more powerful than the group at Qingjian, and they were fearless in death.

An army that has developed momentum is the Tiger and Wolf Division. The gap between Wang Yan's Xiang Army and the Tiger and Wolf Division was a head-to-head battle between large armies.

However, Xixia's frontier generals were not completely dissatisfied. After all, more and more people were staying behind closed doors, and the statistics of casualties were getting higher and higher. The people behind them were just dissatisfied and did not dare to fight.

Therefore, Wang Yan failed to do his full work in the end. Of the fifteen thousand soldiers, more than three thousand were completely damaged in the battle, and there were still two thousand who did not take their turn to fight.

But the results of the battle were also excellent. According to Wang Yan's estimate, Xixia lost at least 10,000 people in the battle, and most of them were elites. Not to mention veterans of hundreds of battles, there are still some who have fought dozens of battles.

The Xixia army has 500,000 soldiers, but not everyone can be called elite. In a purely head-on field battle, the loss of these ten thousand people would reduce the overall military strength by at least 10%.

But correspondingly, Wang Yan had 10,000 more soldiers. Wang Yan made money every time he came and went.

However, the price he paid was also huge, including the current medical expenses for the injured soldiers and the hundreds of thousands of dollars in pensions he would have to pay in the next few decades.

But all in all, he made a profit. After all, the pensions are not given in vain, the money will be circulated, and it has also won the hearts of the people. If you want to ask who supports Wang Yan’s administration the most, these soldiers and their families are definitely the staunchest supporters...

In Pingrong Village, more than 8,000 people were about 200 meters away from the Xixia army on the opposite side. Headed by Wang Yan, who was wearing a purple official robe, he loudly cursed the Xixia people who were waiting for them on the opposite side.

But they just won’t come out…

After scolding like this for two quarters of an hour, Wang Yan plucked his ears and shook his head sadly: "Ming Jin withdraws his troops and kills pigs for meat tonight."

The soldiers howled at Wan Sheng and turned back to the village laughing.

This is a new activity launched by Wang Yan. Every time he fights against the opponent who is pretending to be a bastard, Wang Yan must gather his troops. The Xiang Army and the Forbidden Army will come out together to give a harsh scolding to boost morale and enhance cohesion.

Let's eat meat again to win people's hearts.

This trick is really useful...

Wang Yan looked at the Xixia side, and finally followed the army back with his hands behind his back.

But he couldn't help but shook his head again. It was difficult to kill Xixia people, so he had to find another way...

I would like to express my daily gratitude to the good brothers who vote monthly, recommend and read quietly for their strong support!
