Da Wei Chun

Chapter 657 If you hit one punch, you can avoid a hundred punches ([-])

Hearing what Yuan Cheng said, it seems reasonable?
But Li Xian always felt that something was wrong, and for a moment he couldn't think of a reason.

Seeing that his brows were tightly furrowed, it seemed that Li Xian was worried.Yuan Cheng chuckled: "No matter how strong Li Chengzhi is, he can still be the enemy of the Three Kingdoms? Let him be rampant for a few days first, and when the three armies come out, he will be crowned the leader..."

This is true.

Promising so much food, grass, silk and hemp, and armor, and even the unparalleled methods of forging soldiers and armor, whether it is Rouran Khan Chounu or Tuyuhun Khan Fu Lianchou, everyone is ecstatic .

When the two returned from Rouran Khan Court one month ago, Ugly Nu had conscripted all the tribes, saying that they would gather 40 troops to help the Yuan and Wei Dynasties.

Fu Lianchou vowed even more, saying that as long as the method of forging armor is sent to the Khan Court, 20 troops can be raised immediately, and the sword will point to Hexi.

Don't say 60, just subtract half, and the borrowed Hu soldiers have already reached 30, and the imperial court has given more than 20 Chen soldiers in Guanzhong, which is more than 50 troops.

Just imagine, how can Li Chengzhi resist it?

……

Li Chengxue was full of dust and dust, his face and head were covered with dust, he didn't even bother to wash his face, so he came to see Li Chengzhi, which shows how urgent the military situation is.

"Second brother, this is Shishu's secret letter, saying that it must be handed over to you for personal enlightenment!"

"Third brother who worked hard!"

Li Chengzhi patted him on the shoulder, "Go and wash up, and then report to mother that you are safe!"

Li Chengxue promised to leave, Li Chengzhi opened the envelope, swept it hastily, and his pupils shrank.

One month ago, the imperial court ordered Xi Kangsheng to sit in Wuchuan, to supervise the military forces in Beidi and the six towns, and to be responsible for reorganizing the surrendered army and appeasing the townspeople.

Then he ordered Xing Luan to be the commander, Cui Yanbo to be the deputy, Yuan Yi to be the supervisor, and Yuan Qin to be the Sima, with 30 troops stationed in Guanzhong.

Seeing Xing Luan, Cui Yanbo, and Sima Yuanqin, Li Chengzhi knew that the court had committed a heart attack again. He was afraid that Xi Kangsheng, who had always been close to him, would release water, so he abandoned it.

As for Yuan Yi, no matter how close he was to Li Chengzhi in the past, he would definitely not be able to match this Yuan family's own flesh and blood who sat on the dragon chair.

This is only second, Li Shao said that 30 is not a claim, but a real indication.

There were 15 old troops who were Xi Kangsheng's conquest of Gaozhao. They were originally stationed in Xiazhou, of which [-] were the Chinese army, and the rest were state soldiers and civilians recruited from Hedong and Guanzhong.

The remaining 15 belonged to the old Ministry of Gao Zhao.Among them, there are [-] town troops nearby, and the rest are state soldiers and county soldiers of the five northern states.

And since it is a newly surrendered army, it only needs to be reorganized on the spot and does not need to be recruited again, so it does not take long to form an army.

Li Shao estimated that at most another month, that is, in mid-May, the 30 troops would be ready to march.

A rough calculation shows that among the 30 troops, as many as [-]% are proficient in arching and horse riding, and can walk and ride.The remaining [-]% are mostly state soldiers, not civilians who don't even know how to draw a bow, they can be called a formidable enemy.

And that's all, Li Shao guessed: this time the imperial court spared no expense, and did not know how many benefits they had promised with Rouran and Tuyuhun. Sending envoys to Beijing said that they were in the same boat as the Yuan and Wei Dynasties, and it was their duty to send troops to help.

Only then did Yuan Cheng go on an envoy, first to Rouran and then to Tuyuhun, instead of finalizing the details.

I don't know how much to borrow, but according to Li Shao's guess, the strength of the two sides should be at least 20.

Adding 30 officers and soldiers, the force has exceeded 50.

But Li Chengzhi was so aggressive that almost all the people in Xihai were soldiers, and there were only [-] soldiers.What's more, fighting a war does not depend on who has more people, but only on logistics and national strength. How can the small Hexi be compared with the three major countries?

Even Li Shao has regarded Li Chengzhi as a heavenly man and has great confidence in him, but now he is ashamed, and there is a meaning in his words: if something cannot be done, it is better to make plans early.

How else can I plan?

Nothing more than surrender, or escape!
It's a pity that there is no arrow to turn back when you open the bow. The matter has come to this point. If you don't even have the courage to be broken, why should you live a lifetime?
Whether it's life or death, victory or defeat, we can only talk about it once we've done it...

Li Chengzhi smiled, put the letter into an envelope, sealed it again, and handed it to Li Xiaoxian: "File it, seal it up!"

It's fine if you lose, but if you win, this letter is the proof of rewarding Li Shao and conferring officials to the Li family's children in Longxi, so there must be no mistakes.

Li Xiaoxian took the envelope with worry on his face: "Mr. Lang, the fourth uncle (Li Song) sent an envoy to report yesterday, saying that about a month ago, the herdsman who nomads at the foot of Zhuoxie received the ugly slave (Rou Ran Khan) ordered him to dispatch troops immediately and gather in Luhunhai (Rouran Khan Court, Hal and Lin).

But Gu Zang Hou also said that more than a month ago, the Queen Mother had ordered to gather 30 troops to Chen Bingguan.If this is the case, at least in mid-February, the imperial court and Rouran had already agreed on the strategy of sending troops... And at that time, Guzang Hou Kankan returned to Guanzhong from our West Sea? "

It means that the imperial court has not yet received Li Shao's Bingzuo, and the Queen Mother still does not know whether Li Chengzhi will be appeased or whether he will strike peace with the imperial court. Collusion, want to pinch back and forth.

"It's just because the imperial court has long predicted that I will not be appeased. It is also possible that even if I intend to submit, the Queen Mother and King Ren Cheng have also secretly made up their minds to get rid of my confidant's serious trouble..."

Li Chengzhi sighed leisurely, "The two armies are facing each other, and they will do everything they can. Therefore, whether it is the court's unbelief or the strategy of delaying the army, it is useless to talk about it at this time. There is no need to say more. Now there is only a desperate battle... ..."

After a short pause, he said again in a cold voice: "Order Li Song not to act rashly, and Hu Jun will not have any troubles, and will not invade Dunhuang. Tell him to guard the city well...

Then Li Liang is ordered to send out troops in three days, and join Huangfu's troops, but remember not to make a big fanfare, and don't startle Fu Lianchou.

Then Li Feng and Li Yongshou are ordered to send more Tangqi to closely monitor the movement of Rouran's army. If Hu Jun marches from the north of Junji Mountain, don't pay attention to it.If you march from the south of the mountain, you will be arrayed in Juyan Hubei.Don't let Tuyuhun invade the border while marching... When his army is halfway across, it will not be too late to attack again. "

Li Xiaoxian said worriedly: "If Rouran wants to take the lead as soon as he arrives, and wants to seize the opportunity, what should we do?"

"If this is the case, it shows that Rou Ranchun didn't put me in Xihai's eyes. She only regarded me as a soft persimmon that couldn't be pinched. Then the army can calm down my West Sea.

This was absolutely not the imperial court's original intention, otherwise why did Yuan Cheng travel thousands of miles and humbly promise so many benefits to the ugly slave?It can also be seen how rampant Rouran's coach is, how underestimated the enemy?In this way, my lord has fulfilled my intention..."

Li Chengzhi replied in a deep voice, "Even a fool knows that hitting with five fingers together is the most powerful. It's impossible that the head coach Rouran doesn't understand this truth? So rest assured, Hu Jun will never act rashly." Even if Chen Bing lives in Hubei and wants to attack from the north, at least he will wait for the imperial court to send a pioneer to let him explore the way..."

"I hope it will be as you wish!"

"Don't worry, the sky won't fall... Well, let Huangfu let me go, if Tuyuhun shows any signs of sending troops, he will report to me as soon as possible, the sooner the better..."

Seeing Li Chengzhi's face getting darker, Li Xiaoxian felt anxious and dared not say any more.After a quick reply, he went to send orders to the various ministries.

Li Chengzhi sighed, then turned to look at the map on the wall.

After staring at it for a long time, Li Chengzhi's eyes became colder and colder.

In this era when communications depend on shouting and traffic depends on walking, how difficult is it to mobilize an army of more than tens of thousands, let alone hundreds of thousands?

He didn't believe that the imperial court, Rouran, and Bing Tuyuhun could keep pace and work together, and if one side said to fight, all three strikes could go to war.

There will inevitably be a time gap in the middle, and there will definitely be huge loopholes to exploit.

At least Li Chengzhi was sure that even Rouran conscripted troops one month earlier than Tuyuhun, but its territory was vast and its tribes were extremely scattered. It would take at least two months to gather all the troops, horses, livestock, and food.

Moreover, Rouran Khan's Court is still two thousand miles away from the West Sea, no matter how fast it is, it will take at least a month to march on the road, so three months have passed.Waiting for his soldiers to come to live in Yanhu Lake, in any case, it will be midsummer in June.

Therefore, Xihai still has at least two to three months of preparation time.

And these two to three months can be used to deal with Tuyuhun or the army of the imperial court.

The great man once said: One punch will prevent hundreds of punches, so the first punch is the most important.

As for who to beat?

There is no need to choose at all, of course, pick the softest persimmon.

You can tell by looking at the map at this time. Compared with before, there are many more arrows on it, red and green, coming and going.The two thickest ones suddenly pointed to Linsong and Shandan racecourses.

Huangfu Rang, who was stationed at the Linsong and Shandan racecourses, took away [-] soldiers and nearly [-]% of Xihai's firearms and explosives.Now Li Chengzhi sent Li Liang to lead [-] new troops to assist, and the strength of the troops has exceeded half of the West Sea.

If he couldn't even win this first battle, Li Chengzhi would have no choice but to lead his troops to flee.

……

As the saying goes, speed is the most important thing in soldiers, and Yuan Cheng is also a person who knows how to fight, so he naturally understands this truth.Therefore, on the third day after seeing Fu Lianchou, he urged Tuyuhun to send troops.

After all, he has gained a lot of benefits, and he also knows that as Yuan Cheng said, Rouran Khan Chounu has ordered his troops to be recruited, so Fu Lianchou naturally has no reason to turn his face and deny people.

Because the rewards of the ugly slaves are extremely generous, almost 40% of the silk and food promised by the Yuan and Wei Dynasties were mobilized to mobilize the ministries, and all the ministries responded like a cloud.According to Yuan Cheng's estimate, the ugly slaves could not gather an army of 20, at least [-] should be there.

He used this to persuade Fu Lianchou not to be stingy, but to be a little more magnanimous like an ugly slave, so that the soldiers under his tent can use their lives.

But a full man doesn't know how hungry a hungry man is, and Yuan Cheng doesn't know how difficult Fulianchou is.He dared not send any of the strongest tent soldiers under his command.

It was also to blame for Fu Lianchou's greed. He only thought that he had the chance to win, and he was afraid that other tribes would take advantage of him. Therefore, when he and Nanliang jointly dispatched troops two years ago, they sent only tent soldiers directly under the tribe.

But things backfired, not only the defeat was too fast, but also the defeat was not ordinary, it completely lost [-]% of Fu Lian's tent, and his strength was greatly reduced for a while.

Later, seeing nearly [-] troops from Nanliang collapsed in Chen Cang, Fu Lianchou was even more frightened, and resolutely moved west despite the dissuasion of the princes and cronies of various ministries.

And this tossing, I don't know how much food and grass was consumed.It just so happened that Li Chengzhi occupied Hexi, and in the name of the imperial court, acted like a fox and pretended to be a tiger. Jin ordered Tuyuhun to retreat to the south of Shannan, and gave up the old horse farm.

For a time, there were complaints and rumors from all ministries.Among them, the one with the most complaints is Tianzhu Sanbu.

Because there is weak water in the north of Qilian Mountain, and Mojin River in the south of Shandan Racecourse, these two places have the most fertile aquatic plants.It is also because of this that the northern part of Tianzhu is growing stronger and stronger, and it is the tribe with the most herding tents and the most extensive soldiers and horses among the three tribes of Tianzhu.

Fu Lianchou forced the northern part of Tianzhu to move southward, which undoubtedly cut off the way back.But frightened by its lust, he had to move south.

As a result, the west and south of Tianzhu had to give up the old land in the north.As the old saying goes, it's not about scarcity but about inequality, which naturally made the two parts hate Fu Lianchou.

The three parts originally came from the same line and were naturally close, but now they share the same hatred and regard Khan as a bandit, which is like adding insult to injury to Fu Lianchou, whose strength has been greatly damaged.Even his sweaty position has a hint of instability.

But now that the Yuan and Wei dynasties are sending charcoal in the snow, it can be said that it is timely rain. How could Fu Lianchou not know how to use his strength to fight?

Whether it is money or food, silk or hemp, including the soldiers of the Yuan and Wei Dynasties, he will naturally take out part of it to lure the three tribes of Tianzhu to send troops.

It doesn't need much, just [-]%.The remaining [-]% is used to sell people's hearts and strengthen themselves.

But in any war, there is no reason for the undead, as long as the Tianzhu troops send troops, their strength will inevitably weaken.After the battle, ninety-nine percent are no longer able to contend with him.

And with him rewarding a lot of money and food, the resentment of the Tianzhu department can be dissipated a lot, so it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

As for how many soldiers and horses the Tianzhu Department can gather, and whether they can meet Yuan Cheng's wish, that's another story.

Anyway, don't want him to send a personal soldier...

I don't know Fu Lianchou's plan, but knowing that Tuyuhun recruited the powerful Tianzhu Tripartite, Yuan Cheng was relatively satisfied.

There are more than [-] herdsmen in the three divisions of Tianzhu, and it is more than enough to recruit [-] string-controlling soldiers.I dare not say that all the strong troops are out, there should be fifty or sixty thousand.Then, Fu Lian raised money from other tribes to gather together, at least [-], which basically met Yuan Cheng's expectations.

In addition, under Rouran and Xingluan's tent, there are 60 or [-] troops pointing to the West Sea. As long as the three parties work together and work step by step, Li Chengzhi has absolutely no reason to be invincible.

An agreement was made with Fu Lianchou to divide his troops into two routes, one route to the Salt Lake, and the other route to Shanshan Town (now Ledu, Qinghai Province), which is only [-] miles away from Wuwei. Arrive at Bugulu, discuss with Xing Luan and Cui Yanbo, and then decide how to fight.

Fu Lianchou agreed to everything, but he just told Yuan Cheng: As long as the army gathers, Yuan Wei must fulfill his promise and send food, grass and soldiers to Songpan.

Yuan Cheng said that he would never break his promise, and made an oath of alliance with Fu Lianchou.

At this time, the Tianzhu Department planned to preserve its strength.Thinking about recruiting some old and weak, how can we not let Fu Lianchou commit crimes, and how can we fool Yuan Cheng...
