Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Regarding the latest movements of the Wei army, although the officers and soldiers on the Heluo side were also panicked, the real person in charge could still calmly analyze and think about countermeasures, but the situation in Yedu was much more chaotic.

Although Yedu is not on the front line of the war, as the capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty, there are already undercurrents due to the convergence of time and different people's hearts. In this sensitive and critical season, any slightest movement can make the people look at them with suspicion and tremble with fear. Such a big thing happened, which of course made people even more panicked.

When Duan Shao returned to Yedu, many officials went out to Zimo in the west of the city to greet him, and repeatedly asked about the current enemy situation.

Duan Shao was careful and thoughtful by nature, and of course he would not talk about military plans in front of others. However, seeing that the people were worried, he comforted them and said: "The Qiang thieves did not dare to rush east because they knew that Heluo had heavily prepared troops and were afraid of becoming an enemy." Jin, but ignored the traitor Sima Xiaonan.

The leader of the thieves, Li Boshan, out of concern for his dignity, avoided the front of our troops and diverted his troops to disturb the surrounding areas. Jinzhou also had heavy troops, and it was close to Jinyang. Black Otter was an old enemy. They had many battles, but they still did not dare to invade Jinzhou. This was because they were worried about losing troops and generals, and their efforts were in vain. Li Boshan's recent intrusion is indeed short-sighted and should not be feared! "

When everyone heard what Duan Shao said, the fear in their hearts subsided slightly, but they still refused to dissipate. They also wanted to know how the court was going to respond and whether the emperor was safe after moving to Jinyang.

But Duan Shao would not answer these questions lightly. After saying those words, he immediately entered the city with the soldiers of the Forbidden Army who came to greet him, and went straight to the Shangshu Province in the imperial city.

In the Zhitang Hall of the Fashion Bookstore, Changshan King Gaoyan, Changguang King Gao Zhan and other clan members who stayed in Yedu, as well as Yang Min and other important ministers, were all sitting in the hall. When Duan Shaoxing came in, they hurriedly made room for him. a location.

"I have said before that the Qiang thieves have no reason to rescue Sima from trouble. If we deploy heavy defenses in Heluo, they may divert their attacks elsewhere. However, during the discussion a few days ago, the participating people just stated that the defenses in Heyang , I didn’t even think about it!”

Compared to other people with solemn expressions, Gao Zhan's expression was more relaxed, and there was even a sense of smug showoff in his words.

However, his remarks that were made with the benefit of hindsight did not receive a response from the crowd. Even Gao Yan, who had indeed heard these words, ignored him. Instead, he looked at Duan Shao and asked quickly: "Brother Xiao, how is the situation in Heyang?" ? Is the morale of the army in danger? Can reinforcements be dispatched immediately? "

"The situation there was not bad. Although it was a bit surprising that the thieves did not arrive, the morale of the army was not greatly disrupted. When the soldiers learned that the Qiang thieves were attacking Jinzhou, they were all worried and angry, and their morale was at a loss. As long as they had supplies, they If you have enough, you can always run to save someone else.”

Duan Shao first answered Gao Yan's question, and then sighed: "This mistake in responding to the enemy is indeed a miscalculation, but as long as Jinzhou can withstand the thieves' power and hold firm, until all rescues arrive, the crisis can still be solved." Although the first move is lost, the country's strength is still there. There is a supreme leader in Jinyang, so the crowd is calm and it is difficult for the thieves to advance. At this time, it is especially important to avoid rash actions to avoid being defeated by the thieves. He was careless and then returned after realizing the difficulty.”

"Brother Xiao has come up with this plan, and I feel much more at ease. I was surprised at the cunning and hasty Qiang thieves, and planned to send out divisions and brigade to rescue immediately. It turned out to be unwise."

Hearing what Duan Shao said, Gao Yan said with some embarrassment that he himself was not good at military strategy. After learning that the thieves were attacking Jinzhou, his subconscious thought was to send troops for reinforcements, but he did not expect that this would be a bit embarrassing. inappropriate.

After hearing the words, Duan Shao nodded again and said: "Now that I think about it, the Qiang thieves didn't care much about where Northern Yuzhou defected. The reason why they made such a big noise was just to confuse and tire me. Now when they invade Jinzhou, plundering the land should be the second priority. , The main thing is to use this dangerous city to lure me to rescue, and then split up to send reinforcements. If our troops rush towards it, it will be like throwing themselves into a trap, and they will be defeated separately while waiting for work. "

Nowadays, a large number of Northern Qi's domestic troops are concentrated between Heyang and Heluo. Jinyang, which originally had a heavy concentration of troops, is slightly weaker due to the previous dispatch of troops. But fortunately, when the Jinyang soldiers set off for Yedu and Heyang, the army recruitment around Hebei and Jinyang was also going on at the same time. As Jinyang has been the military center of the Northern Qi Dynasty for a long time, the efficiency of army recruitment was also very high, and soon can form combat effectiveness.

However, no matter how efficient Jinyang's army recruitment is, there will always be a certain time lag. Now that the Western Wei army has taken the initiative, if the reinforcements arrive one after another, the enemy army can fight front and rear with superior force. This will not be as great as the pressure on the enemy army caused by marching together.

"But……"

Although Duan Shao's words calmed everyone's mood, Yang Min soon frowned and said: "The current defense of Jinzhou is King Changle, I'm afraid it's difficult to do it in public."

Speaking of this, Yang Min frowned and looked at Gao Dezheng in the other seat. If he hadn't spoken out to defend Changle Wang Wecan before, he might have been able to replace him that time. Even if Hu Luguang was not in charge of Jinzhou, another general would be more reliable than Yu Can.

After everyone heard this, their just relaxed mood suddenly became tense again. Yes, it is of course good for all parties to reinforce and advance together, but the prerequisite is that Jinzhou City must be defended. What kind of virtue this guy Wei Can has is not unfamiliar to the clan and ministers. It is too small to expect this guy to be able to defend the city under the attack of the Wei army.

At this moment, Changguang King Gao Zhan, who had been ignored, spoke again: "Even if Jinzhou loses, it doesn't matter. The reason why Jinzhou is important is that it can keep thieves away, but now that the thieves have arrived, Jinzhou will survive or not." , it is difficult to stop its momentum. As King Pingyuan said, the gain and loss of Jinzhou should not be considered at the moment, the focus is on fighting the enemy.

At present, all the divisions and brigades are gathering in Jinyang. If Jinzhou survives, they can rush to rescue it. If Jinzhou is lost, they can stick to Jinyang and lure the thieves deep into the territory. Then I use Yedu troops to intercept their army's retreat. It might be possible to annihilate the enemy. "

I won’t say whether Gao Zhan’s opinion is reasonable or not, but after listening to what he said, he immediately regarded Jinzhou and Weican and other defenders as abandoned sons, and even used Jinyang and the current emperor as bait. This pattern is not ordinary. Big. Therefore, after everyone heard this, they all had a tacit understanding and did not answer the question. If they really wanted to say something, they might have a knife on their necks one day and ask if they felt comfortable using the emperor as bait to lure the enemy in. ?

Gao Yan frowned and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense. The location of Jinyang is the foundation of our country. The Supreme Lord personally came to guard it. How dare the Qiang thieves dare to commit such a crime! However, most of the Bingzhou counties and counties are the families of soldiers from the six states. If thieves sneak in, It will definitely cause great harm and must be stopped!”

After Duan Shao thought about it for a while, he said again: "The survival of Jinzhou must be considered. I would like to first lead the troops left behind in Yedu to go west to Fukou, and first occupy Wusu, Yining and other places. City. Please withdraw your troops to Heyang from the capital and wait for the order from Jinyang before making arrangements."

Wusu Road is an important passage connecting Jinzhou and Hebei, such as the Battle of Fukou in the old year when Erzhu Rong quelled the mutiny in the six towns, and during the Eastern Wei Dynasty, Hu Lujin led the Hebei people to Jinzhou and followed Emperor Shenwu Gao Huan. When launching the Battle of Yubi, they all entered and exited through this route. The east exit of this passage is at Fukou, which is less than a hundred miles away from Yedu.

"If the army and troops leave, will the capital be unstable?"

Hearing that Duan Shao wanted to lure away the troops currently stationed in Yedu, Shangshu's right servant Cui Xian couldn't help but speak. There were not many soldiers and horses in Yedu to begin with. After the 20,000 imperial troops sent to Heyang left, another group of troops went from the emperor to Jinyang. Now, after deducting the 20,000 divisions and brigades newly arrived from Jinyang, the troops inside and outside Duji have already Less than thirty thousand.

If Duan Shao lures away another 20,000 Jinyang soldiers, Yedu's defensive strength will be even weaker. If there is any trouble, it may be difficult to maintain internal and external security.

After pondering for a while, Gao Yan still said: "The situation in the west is more dangerous at the moment. There has been nothing happening around Duji recently. The troops and horses stationed here are just resting. They can follow the king to the west. Besides, the Heyang brigade will be evacuated soon. Return to the country to strengthen the defense of the capital."

When Gao Yan said this, all the ministers shut up even if they were worried. Although Yedu is the capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty, its military situation is like that of a stepmother. The famous kings and generals currently in charge of the military put the stability of Jinyang first. As for Yedu, when necessary Sometimes it can be abandoned.

Even though Cui Xian and others were worried about Yedu's safety, they only dared to give a little reminder in the hope of attracting attention, but there was nothing they could do if they were not taken seriously. If they really tried to fight for it, they might be treated rudely.

After the preliminary plan, Duan Shao did not stay in the city overnight, but immediately went to the military camp outside the city with King Changshan's military order. After gathering the soldiers, he went straight to Fukou in the northwest that afternoon.

After Duan Shao led his army to leave, the city was not idle. Gao Yan not only sent orders to the states to transport another batch of grain and grass supplies to Yedu, but also issued military orders to Heyang to withdraw in batches.

After Gao Zhan waited for everyone else to leave the hall, he came close to Gao Yan and whispered: "Sixth brother, the Qiang bandit's use of troops is unexpected. I have said it before. But what you see now may not be all of his tricks. You have to be careful and there are back-ups.

Although King Pingyuan is a rare brave choice among his relatives, if he were to fight the Qiang thieves, he would not dare to promise that he would win. Once the king of Pingyuan is defeated and the thieves come out of Fukou, Ye's subordinates will be in danger. At that time, the hearts of the people in the city will fluctuate, which will cause disaster in an instant! "

After Gao Yan heard this, he also frowned, looked up at Gao Zhan and said in a deep voice, "Then what do you think about this?"

"Yang Min, Cui Siam and others rely on their good name and clan, but they may not be loyal to their country in times of crisis. These Han officials with unpredictable intentions should be monitored by soldiers and horses, and they are not allowed to gather casually or go out easily!"

After hearing this, Gao Yan nodded after weighing it, and then said: "I will leave the matter to you. Your attitude should be gentler and your intentions should not be too exposed!"

"Brother, don't worry. I understand the importance of things and won't be too rough or force people to leave."

Although Gao Zhan sometimes behaves a little inappropriately, he is also very smart and smart. He nodded after hearing Gao Yan's explanation.

I didn't feel very well today and went to the hospital for most of the day. I'll update one chapter first. I'll write more tomorrow if I'm in good condition. I'm sorry, I wish you all good health and a happy life! ! !
