Hegemony of all Dynasties: Get the Zhao Yun template at the beginning

Chapter 557 Crossing the River Plan 20
"The king had previously issued an order to ask the ministers to prepare food and supplies, mobilize soldiers to go south quietly, and pretend to be the guards to go to Yangzhou, Taixing, and Nantong. It can be pulled out!"

"Now there is only one problem, and that is to go south to attack the Sun Clan of Eastern Wu. Where should we cross the river? Do we need to send envoys to contact the King of Wu of the Western Han Dynasty and form an alliance to attack the Sun Clan together!"

Bu Zhi said in a deep voice.

In the original timeline, Bu Zhi was the confidant of Sun Quan's in-laws, who pacified Jiaozhou and became the prime minister of Soochow.

But now Bu Zhi has nothing to do with the Sun family, and when talking about how to deal with the Sun family, his expression is even calmer.

"Although our army's strength is far superior to Eastern Wu's, this battle is related to the future of our army, so we must not be careless. Although Liu Bi, the King of Wu in the Western Han Dynasty, is not Sun's opponent, he can contain part of the opponent's strength!"

"I think you should form an alliance with Liu Bi, and make close friends with far away!"

Wang Guangyang couldn't help but said.

This discussion on the future strategy of the Huai Army is of great importance. Although he is a bachelor of the Ministry of Government Affairs, he must participate in the discussion at this time and provide his own insights and help as much as possible.

"Being far away and attacking close is naturally a good strategy, but it is still open to debate which way to make far away princes! I think that Liu Bi in the Western Han Dynasty can't contain Sun Ce at all, and maybe he will be destroyed before our army sends troops!"

"If it's a distant relationship, I suggest sending envoys directly to Lin'an to invite Emperor Xiaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty to send troops to the north..."

Pei Ju said.

After Bu Zhi and Wang Guangyang stepped forward to express their suggestions, other civil and military officials also let go of their concerns and began to express their own ideas.

The civil and military officials in the hall are all outstanding figures in history.

Their suggestions are all reasonable and hit the nail on the head.

Even Cao Jingzong and Murong Shaozong briefly mentioned the direction of crossing the river, the target of the vanguard and so on.

Wang Jing listened carefully, carefully considering everyone's opinions.

Wait until everyone has finished speaking.

A plan to go south to attack the Soochow Sun family was formed.

"Zhaoxuan, after listening to the opinions of everyone present, can you summarize them and formulate a detailed plan for crossing the river?"

Wang Jing finally looked at Gao Yan.

In the history of the Northern Dynasties' battles against the South, the Western Jin Dynasty defeated Wu, the Sui Dynasty defeated Southern Chen, the Northern Song Dynasty defeated the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the Mongol Yuan defeated the Southern Song Dynasty... Among them, the commander-in-chief of the Sui Dynasty's battle against Chen was Gao Yu.

He formulated strategies and plans, and then He Ruobi, Han Qinhu and other generals crossed the river according to the plan.

Gao Yan has rich experience in formulating plans to cross the south of the Yangtze River.

"The minister takes orders!"

Gao Yan pondered for a while, and then said calmly: "As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before moving food and grass. The first step when crossing the south of the Yangtze River is to prepare food, grass, supplies, and inquire about the enemy's intelligence. In this regard, there are two scholars, Shen and Wang, and Jiang Du. The chief envoy will be in charge, and the second step is to make friends from afar and attack close..."

"I agree with Pei Shangshu's opinion. You can send envoys to Lin'an to form an alliance with the Southern Song Dynasty. I heard that Zhao Wei in the Southern Song Dynasty has great ambitions for revitalization. He also has famous generals such as Han Shizhong and Meng Gong under his command. If we can join forces with the Southern Song Dynasty, the southward mission will be half the effort..."

Later, Gao Yan suggested that the Construction Department start to develop sea-going ships. In the future, when going south to face the Sun family head-on, they can use the sea-going ships to attack from behind and come to a center to bloom.

Gao Yan can casually name a few tactics to deal with the Sun family, and they are all practical and feasible strategies.

Like Wang Jing, everyone in the hall was listening quietly.

"According to the information from the Military Intelligence Department, the Sun family of Eastern Wu now has two strong men, Sun Jian and Sun Ce, as well as four ninth-rank generals, Lu Su, Lu Meng, Tai Shici, and Gan Ning... Zhou Yu hasn't appeared yet, and the ninth-rank Leaving aside the celebrities, the current rank nine military generals are very powerful!"

"The only flaw should be the lack of the top ninth-tier generals!"

As Wang Jing listened, he counted the strong men Soochow had, as well as the various generals in the army.

Lu Xun, who was one of the four major governors with Zhou Yu, and Lu Kang, the pillar of Soochow in the later period, did not appear in Soochow's camp.Have to say, this is good news.

Lu Xun and Lu Kang's personal ability is not inferior to Zhou Yu's. If they can be recruited, the strength of the Huai Army will be greatly enhanced.

Soochow has six major and ninth-rank fierce generals.

The Huai army now has Murong Shaozong, Pei Sui, Yang Dayan, He Ruobi, and Shi Wansui, five ninth ranks, one less in number, but Fu Youde, Yang Kan, Yuwen Chengdu, and Wang Sengbian may have them at any time. breakthrough.

If these four people break through the bottleneck, the Huai army will have nine generals of the ninth rank.

Including Wang Jing himself, there are ten.

When Wang Jing made the comparison, he only counted the number of generals on both sides. Ninth-rank celebrities and civil servants rarely went to the battlefield, and even if they did, they would not be able to fight in battle, so they just ignored it.

It is better for these celebrities and ministers to honestly handle internal affairs in the rear and make suggestions.

At this time, Gao Yan had already finished the strategic plan he had summed up.

Wang Jing immediately put away the thoughts in his mind, and said with a smile: "Zhaoxuan is indeed very strategic, do you have anything to add?"

Bu Zhi sighed: "Mr. Gao is very resourceful and considers Zhou Xiang. If we go south according to Mr. Gao's plan, our army has a great chance of winning. I have no objection..."

When he said this, a feeling emerged in Bu Zhi's heart.

Gao Yan is afraid that it will be of great use soon.

If he succeeded in attacking Soochow in the south according to his plan, he would be able to rely on his merits, first be promoted to the Sixth Division, and then quickly enter the Privy Council Province, becoming a Privy Envoy just like him.

I have to say that there is nothing wrong with Bu Zhi's feeling.

Wang Jing did have the idea of ​​promoting Gao Yan and letting him quickly enter the core of the Huai Army to take on important positions.

Nowadays, there are quite a few ninth-rank generals in the Huai Army, but Fu Youde is the only one who can command a large army, especially one that can command hundreds of thousands of troops.

Although He Ruobi and Shi Wansui are top-notch generals, they are more independent, and the number of soldiers and horses they can command at the same time will not exceed 30.

In the battle against Chen in history, Gao Yan was in command of the army and was responsible for the overall strategy, Yang Su commanded the army, He Ruobi was in charge of the water army crossing the river, and Han Qinhu commanded only a few thousand troops...

It's a pity that only He Ruobi and Shi Wansui took refuge in Wang Jing.

If it was Yang Sulai who voted, Wang Jing would be even happier than getting these two fierce players.

Now Yang Su didn't know where he was, so Wang Jing wanted to train Gao Yan, he didn't need him to visit the enemy's line in person, and he didn't need him to fight, as long as he could sit in the army and dispatch troops.

In this case.

When Wang Jing goes south, he can divide his troops into three groups, each of which cooperates to intersperse.

at this time.

The other civil and military personnel in the palace also had no objections, and the strategic plan for crossing the south of the Yangtze River was finalized.Of course, this plan still requires Gao Yan and other civil and military personnel to continuously improve the details in the coming time.
