Chapter 725 The blown cow does not know where it will fly (second update)

Chapter 734

Among the civil servants, there are not many excellent military commanders who are not familiar with military books and can also learn and use them flexibly, but there are not many sincere ones.

After all, their professional direction is more about politics than leading the army, and as civil servants have tighter and tighter control over military power, it naturally caused the generals of the Song Dynasty to retreat step by step.

What they focus on is no longer the entire Great Song Dynasty, nor the entire world, but only cares about the land of one state guarded by the soldiers and horses they command.

In fact, speaking of it, there is an increasing lack of excellent military personnel with strategic vision and standards, and the root cause of all this really lies in the Song Dynasty's political means of promoting literature and suppressing military affairs.

The strategic vision of military generals is getting narrower and narrower, but the problem is that there are not many civil servants who are really familiar with the art of war and are good at using troops. Zhang Zhi, who has guarded Huanqing Road for more than [-] years, is one of the few. Military talents among the civil servants.

This is also the reason why he has been stationed on Huanqing Road for more than [-] years and has not left, because the civil servants of the Song Dynasty can speak up to the sky, but there are too many down-to-earth ones, but if they are really asked to engage in military strategy, it is simply impossible. It is the rhythm of rushing ducks to the shelves and reluctantly.

Just like the Su University scholar, the literary talent is amazing, and the political talent is not to mention, but the military, hehe... Even Su Dongpo has complained about Wang Yang in private.

I am afraid that the old man's understanding of the Song Dynasty's military is not as good as that of the veterans in the army. However, if he doesn't come, someone who is arrogant and arrogant will come and command blindly, which may damage the interests of the Song Dynasty even more.

It's better to come here by yourself. After all, he is also a humble gentleman who is good at accepting others' advice. Moreover, along the way, Su Dongpo was still studying military books desperately.

Although it's useless, at least it means that Xueshi Su really deserves to be an outstanding talent who is humble and studious, and knows how to use people well.Only then will there be several big victories between Song Dynasty and Xixia.

In fact, after Wang Yang came to this northwest borderland, he studied in detail the many wars that had occurred in this area in the past, and came to a very depressing conclusion.

That is, in the war between the Great Song Dynasty and Xixia, the winning rate of the war commanded by civil servants is only about one-third, while the small-scale and local wars commanded by generals can reach two-thirds of the winning rate.

What the hell does this mean?This illustrates a very important thing, that is, professional problems must be solved by professionals.Rather than half of the Analects ruling the world, as some ministers who brag about the blue whale said.

Treat your sister, if you have the ability, you climb out of the coffin and watch Lao Tzu smash you and the coffin into pieces, that's the rhythm of bragging without drafting.

Zhe Keshi looked into the distance with a serious face, listened to Wang Yang's words, and after a long time, he sighed.

"My dear brother, you understand quite well. It's a pity, what can we Qiu Ba do? It has always been the rule that only civilian officials give orders and military generals lead the army. If you don't obey their orders, it is disobedience. There may be resistance and disobedience, many orders, even if we clearly know that they are wrong, we can only bite the bullet and execute them..."

Wang Yang smacked his mouth. Although he continued to be inscrutable on the surface, in fact, he felt like he was choking in his heart at this moment.Hmm...because it seems that the topic has been diverted by me.

Obviously, what I wanted to tell the other party at the beginning was that knowing the enemy is the key to victory in all battles, but why the fuck did the topic turn around in a blink of an eye to promote culture and suppress martial arts?

It seems that sometimes I can't let my thoughts go too far, otherwise, I don't even know which direction the blown cow will fly. Only then did he clear his throat. "It's better for us to return to the previous topic."

"Knowing and knowing the enemy, you can win every battle. This sentence, my Great Song Dynasty, doesn't seem to care too much about this sentence at all. For example, now, my Great Song Dynasty's understanding of the Northern Liao Dynasty can be called negligible. "

Seeing the doubtful look Zhe Keshi cast, Wang Yang smiled confidently. "I wonder if Brother Zhe knows about the great turmoil that occurred after Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Northern Liao Dynasty ascended the throne?"

"Of course I know this. When Yelu Hongji, the emperor of the Northern Liao Dynasty, came to the throne, Yelu Chongyuan, a trustworthy minister, ended up trying to usurp the throne and was killed in the end.

Later, he reused another power traitor, Yelu Yixin, and Yelu Yixin was not a good bird. In order to usurp power, he first falsely accused Queen Xiao Guanyin of having an affair with an actor, causing Queen Xiao to hang herself.

Then Yelu Yixin falsely accused the prince Yelu Jun of plotting to seize the throne. Yelu Hongji ignored the prince's various pleas and imprisoned him. Later, he was assassinated by Yelu Yixin's envoys..." Zhe Keshi showed off his plans very proudly. know this knowledge.

"Do you know what happened to Yelv Yixin?" Wang Yang asked unhurriedly.

"Zhemou also knew about it. Just a few years ago, the emperor of Liao Kingdom saw through his face and beheaded him."

"I don't know if you know, brother, what did Yelv Yixin do before he was killed?"

"How do I know this?" Zhe Keshi looked at Wang Yang with a confused face. What's wrong with this guy? Is it necessary to pay so much attention to these things in Beiliao?

"The reason why Yelu Yixin was killed was because he sensed that the emperor of Liao's trust in him was getting weaker and weaker, so he had a different intention and secretly contacted his close associates to prepare to surrender to the Song Dynasty."

"...My dear brother, are you fooling me?" Zhe Keshi looked at Wang Yang in shock, full of disbelief.

"Hehe, it has been several years since the death of that Yelv Yixin. As an important general of our Song Dynasty frontier army, you have never heard of this matter, which shows that the ancient soldier sage knows what he said. To say that the other side can win every battle, for me, the Great Song Dynasty..." Having said this, Wang Yang couldn't help but shook his head.

"How is this possible? Although Zhemou is not very clear about it, he also knows that it was because the emperor of the Liao Kingdom finally saw through Yelv Yixin's tricks and ambitions, so he killed him. This is not the same as the rumor that he wanted to betray the Liao Dynasty and defect to the Song Dynasty. Isn’t it too far apart?”

"Brother, don't you believe it. Among the smugglers who were interrogated before, many of them had arrived in the capital of Liao Kingdom to do business. And the news they heard was also interrogated by me and many people. Confirmed by repeated verification by officials."

Wang Yang sighed lightly. "Let's not talk about other things, let's talk about Xixia's Xia Zijia. Xixia's Xia Zizi armor is so strong. I must have heard about it a long time ago, right?"

"It's natural, but now that Song Dynasty has Yuanyoujia, isn't it? In terms of defense, it's not inferior to the Western Xia wart armor, and it's even more light-weight." Zhe Keshi was very excited. Said to Wang Yang triumphantly.
