Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 376 Schedule
Xiao Yuanming's persuasion letter was still on his way to Hefei, and Duan Shao and others led [-] main cavalry and [-] prefectural troops to Huaiyin to join Gaocheng.

"I can get Shouyang, all thanks to Changyou (Chen Yuankang)'s advice and the life of the generals."

At the celebration banquet, Gao Cheng raised his glass and said to everyone:

"The Battle of Bagong Mountain, let me show off my great Qi Tianwei, I hope you will continue to work hard and take Hefei, all in Huainan!"

Everyone raised their glasses to face each other, complimenting Gao Cheng because of his decisive moment in battle, they all drank their glasses to the brim.

At the banquet, Gao Cheng and the generals sang and danced happily, it was rare to have a good time.

Since the second year of Taichang, that is, AD 533, Gao Cheng has been emphasizing military discipline and strictly prohibiting private plundering of civilians. In the past, Gao Huan and Gao Cheng's father and son mostly led the army in person.

As one of the two important towns in Huainan alongside Hefei, Shouyang is undoubtedly prosperous. Yangzhou will not flourish until the Grand Canal is dug in the future.

This time the generals led the troops into Shouyang, they were able to strictly restrain military discipline, and restore normal production and life in the city as quickly as possible, which made Gao Cheng overjoyed.

The Qi army occupied Shouyang, and because of the good discipline it displayed, it did not harm the people, so it did not arouse the resistance of the people of Shouyang. After all, Shouyang has changed hands repeatedly between the north and the south in these years. The people of Liang are still from Qi, and their resistance cannot be equated with that of Jiangnan.

That night, the monarch and his ministers had a good time, and the banquet was over, and everyone broke up.

The next day, after a hangover, Gao Cheng summoned Chen Yuankang and other four counselors, as well as Duan Shao, and asked about the policy:

"Since Shouyang and Huaiyin have descended, we have established a firm foothold in Huainan. If we want to occupy Huainan completely, what should we do for the present plan?"

Chen Yuankang was awarded [-] bolts of cloth by Gao Cheng yesterday for his contribution to the strategy, which was the second reward on the same level as Duan Shao, Gao Aocao, and Hu Lujin, second only to Peng Le who captured Xiao Yuanming alive. Famous counselors are envious.

When Gao Cheng asked about the strategy today, Wang Jun was the first to suggest:

"Hefei is also an important town in Huainan. If it is taken, all the places will surely surrender. It is easy to rely on Huainan. I thought that we should gather heavy troops to attack Hefei."

As soon as this remark came out, without waiting for Gao Cheng to consider it, Wang Wei objected:
"Hefei is well-defended, and there are famous generals guarding it. Shouyang has learned from the past, so it will certainly not go out of the city to fight. I thought that there is no haste, and it is better to divide the troops to attack Huainan. Dare to cross the river to rescue other prefectures and counties, and when Hefei is reduced to an isolated city in the north of the river, if the Liang people do not retreat south, the people in the city will be panicked, and it will not be difficult to break the city."

As soon as these words came out, Gao Cheng suddenly felt a chill coming from his back. He always felt that it was not a good omen for a hundred thousand troops to come to Hefei, but when he thought about it carefully, what Wang Wei said was not unreasonable.

After suffering from Shouyang's loss, it is impossible for Liang Ren to be lured out of the city by him again. Although Lan Qin is a famous general, he is not proud.

He made good friends with Xiao Yan's favorite minister Zhu Yi and Prince Xiao Gang's favorite minister Wei Can, and was once humiliated by Yang Kan in public: "Your boy buys Zhu Yi with a bronze drum as his father and Wei Can as his brother, and he is an improper refuge."

Of course, Lan Qin didn't recognize Zhu Yi as his father. Just because of this insult, Zhu Qin finally bowed his head, oh no, Lan Qin.

Afterwards, Lan Qin bowed down to Yang Kan to apologize. The next day, a minister told Lan Qin that although you knelt down and admitted your mistake, Yang Kan did not calm down. Could you go to worship again.

Guess what, this famous general who was handed down with Chen Qingzhi in "History of Liang" pleaded guilty to Yang Kan again according to his words, and only then did Yang Kan, who insulted him and recognized Zhu Yi as his father, calm down.

Lan Qin is capable of bending and stretching, and Gao Cheng knew that if he was determined to stick to it, even if he scolded his ancestors for eighteen generations outside the city, Lan Qin would be able to ignore him. If he attacked Hefei by force according to Wang Jun's words, even if he could win the city, the casualties of the army and civilians would probably be one to one. Astronomical figures.

However, according to what Wang Wei said, he divided his troops to attack various places, and Hefei became an isolated city. No matter whether Liang Jun will give up Hefei in the end, the hearts of the people in the city will definitely be shaken.

At this time, Nanliang only had a few local soldiers stationed in the remaining prefectures and counties in Huainan. It would be a big deal to ask his honored guest Xiao Yuanming to go a few more times and circle the city a few times. Many will choose to surrender the city.

Incorporating all parts of Huainan into the Northern Qi system as soon as possible and resuming production, Gao Cheng can also go to Hefei without haste.

He already had calculations in his mind, but Gao Cheng still looked at Duan Shao, Chen Yuankang and the others, wanting to hear their opinions on the strategy of dividing the troops.

The generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty are brave if they are brave, but most of them are Gao Aocao and Peng Le who are brave and less resourceful. There are only a few generals who have both wisdom and courage. Duan Shao, Murong Shaozong, Hou Yuan, etc., among them Duan Shao The most long-term, so I called him today to ask advice.

Duan Shao saw Gao Cheng looking at him, and said:
"I think Wang Changshi's strategy of dividing the troops is quite reasonable. However, your majesty, who is rich in gold, should not take risks lightly. I think it needs to be discussed again whether we should push Hefei to frighten the south of the Yangtze River."

Wang Changshi refers to Wang Wei. Unlike the Han Dynasty, Changshi does not refer to eunuchs. During the Cao Wei Dynasty, the two positions of Sanqi and Changshi were combined into one, called Sanqi Changshi. If he is admonishing his mistakes, he will follow him on horseback when he travels. Gao Cheng conscripted Wang Wei into the court and gave him the post of regular servant on horseback.

The senior person among the Sanqi regular servants is called Jijiu Sanqi Changshi, and Chen Yuankang is also called Chen Jijiu.

Duan Shao knew that it was a good idea to force Hefei and frighten Jiangnan. The Liang people were afraid that the Qi army would take the opportunity to sneak across the Yangtze River and drive directly to Jiankang.

But as a subject, he must not let the Son of Heaven take the slightest risk, even if the people of Liang did not dare to go out to fight in the field, and Duan Shao knew very well that with Gao Cheng's temperament, how could it be possible to give someone a hundred thousand elites, so what he said was Discuss again, instead of asking for orders from the leader.

Therefore, as the only person who died well among the three heroes of the Northern Qi Dynasty in another time and space, his political sensitivity is much stronger than that of Hu Luguang and Gao Changgong.

Chen Yuankang also echoed Duan Shao's point of view. Wang Jun was not convinced at first, and felt that what he said was not completely unreasonable, but when Duan Shao and Chen Yuankang spoke in support of Wang Wei, he did not dare to refute. Gao Cheng's closest courtier.

Gao clarified the meaning of Chu Duanshao's words. If he opposed the invasion of Hefei, he would definitely raise it directly instead of discussing it after saying something.

What he is most satisfied with Duan Shao is that he knows how to measure, but just as Duan Shao thought, the one hundred thousand elite Gao Cheng must hold it in his hands.

"In the Battle of Bagong Mountain, the people of Liang were frightened by the news, so they would not dare to cross the river. I personally led the army to attack, and there was no danger. Besides, I was 13 years old and fought against the rebels on behalf of my father. Whenever Liang people go north, I will destroy them!"

There is no lack of confidence in Xiao Gaowang's words, and he also has the confidence.

　When I came back at [-]:[-] in the morning, I wanted to sleep for a while, but I got up at [-]:[-] to write, but I drank too much alcohol and overslept, so I won’t go out for a while today.
