Chapter 3369: Submission in name but self-reliance in reality
A strange look flashed in Gongsun Liuxiu's eyes: "Really, is it really possible to do this?"
Gongsun Wulou nodded confidently: "In these troubled times, those who lead troops to surrender can maintain their independence. Yao Xing is a man who loves success and is hypocritical. As long as someone submits to him in name, he will protect him, but he does not
The means to annex the strength of these people, the land of Guandong, was beyond the reach of Later Qin, otherwise he would not have returned the twelve counties of Nanyang to Liu Yu. Do you really think he was doing it to fulfill Liu Yu's reputation as a hero?
"
Gongsun Liuxiu opened his eyes wide: "It turns out that Yao Xing can't control the Central Plains. Don't they, the Later Qin Dynasty, have tens of thousands of troops in the Central Plains?"
Gongsun Wulou sneered: "That was just taken advantage of when the Jin Dynasty was in civil war and there were no soldiers in the Central Plains. It didn't take much effort, let alone how many soldiers and horses were stationed. Sixth Cultivator, what do you think of this kind of military country?"
The matter has never been clear, and I have to study and understand it in the future. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Central Plains are just like the powerful Han troops in Nanyan. They are unreliable in terms of combat effectiveness and quantity.
"
Gongsun Liuxiu's heart moved, and he quickly said: "Shouldn't Yuan Zun and Yuan Miao take the Han army to Dongcheng for reinforcements now? Will they..."
Gongsun Wulou said coldly: "If the battle goes well, these Han people will fight to the death for Dayan, but if the situation goes wrong, I won't be surprised if they surrender in Kaicheng. It's just that there are no troops available now, so they can only let them Han
The soldiers have also gone into battle, but these are not our concerns. What we have to consider is the choice after leaving the city. The armored cavalry will listen to my orders on the battlefield, but after standing out, we still have to explain the next step to them.
The only way to take action is to gain their support, do you know what to say?"
Gongsun Liuxiu shook his head blankly: "Fifth brother, you know me. Apart from fighting, killing, drinking and playing with women, I am not interested in anything else. This..."
Gongsun Wulou slapped him on the head angrily: "You kid, how many times have I told you to study hard, knowledge is power, why don't you just put it in your head? Look at Wu brother, why do I
I'm prosperous just because I read a lot of books and know more truths, so I can speak out."
Gongsun Liuxiu had a flattering smile on his face: "That's right, fifth brother, how can we be ordinary people? We small fish and shrimps can't compare with you. For so many years, as long as we follow you, we will have meat to eat."
Drink wine."
Gongsun Wulou sighed, and his expression became lonely: "Sixth Cultivator, I also want to have this kind of life forever, but I'm afraid that after today, it will be over. Will I be able to drink meat or wine in the future, or even have
If we don't survive, it all depends on our efforts. Without Guanggu, we will lose the power we had in the past, and we will have to start over from scratch."
Gongsun Liuxiu nodded and said: "I understand what Fifth Brother means. In this troubled world, having soldiers is the king. We must firmly hold on to these two thousand armored cavalry. With them, we can run rampant in the world, no matter whether it is separatist rule or not."
Whoever surrenders to the Later Qin can continue to maintain prosperity and wealth."
Gongsun Wulou nodded with satisfaction: "You kid, you have finally figured it out. After Liu Yu defeated Guanggu, no matter whether the black robe could defend the lower city, the entire Nanyan basically collapsed, and the Central Plains and Later Qin's
Bingzhou is not stable, and the army is in chaos. As long as we have soldiers in our hands, we can move in all directions. If these two thousand armored cavalry go to places where there is no strong army to guard them, they will be like gods. We can easily develop
With tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of troops, with this strength, it is possible to tear apart the earth and become king."
Gongsun Liuxiu opened his eyes wide: "Aren't we going to surrender to Yao Xing of Later Qin? Can we play like this?"
Gongsun Wulou sneered: "Idiot, I just said that Yao Xing can't control us, so we can play whatever we want? Just like Sima Chuzhi, the traitor to the Jin army who surrendered to Yao Xing before, no
They also have their own troops, entrenched in the northern area of Yuzhou, constantly causing trouble for the Jin State. They are what I said, with tens of thousands of people, in fact they are independent and self-reliant. They only have weapons and food provided by the Later Qin Dynasty. They are so happy.
That’s what we want.”
Gongsun Liuxiu understood: "That is to say, we didn't really go to the Later Qin Dynasty, we just surrendered in name. In fact, we still command this army, right?"
Gongsun Wulou nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, that's it. When Sima Chuzhi and others surrendered to Qin, they only had more than a hundred servants around them, and their strength was not as good as ours now. If our plan succeeds, we will have two thousand armored cavalry.
Even among the regular armies of the Later Qin Dynasty, there were few opponents. With this force, if we annex the powerful forces in Yanxi and Northern Henan, if we have the opportunity to annex Sima Chuzhi in the future, hey, wouldn't we become the Central Plains?
The number one vassal town is gone. By then, not even the major powers can do anything to us."
Gongsun Liuxiu was so excited when he heard that, the muscles on his face were beating: "This is a good thing, this is a good thing, fifth brother, brothers, I don't think much about anything, I will follow you to the end."
Gongsun Wulou waved his hand: "Okay, these are things for the future. What we have to consider now is how to stand out. When the time comes, follow my orders. I expect that the ambush of the Jin army will be in the dense forest area in the north, so I asked He Lanmin to
They went to attract attention, while our cavalry took the opportunity to head west. The Jin army would think that we were going south to cut off their troops attacking the West City, and they would definitely be waiting in the West City. However, we did the opposite, that is, directly towards the West City.
Attack from the west, break through their long encirclement of the camp, and go directly to the west. By the time they react, they will no longer be able to catch up with us."
Gongsun Liuxiu blinked: "If they were prepared in Xicheng, why couldn't they catch up with us?"
Gongsun Wulou sneered: "Because Heipao will definitely send Murong Zhen to attack behind us. No matter which direction they go out of the city, they must really attack the Jin army's siege troops. When the time comes, they will have a melee with the Jin army."
, and we quickly left the battlefield, which is what the Jin army wants, and will not waste their main force chasing us. By the time they are done fighting, regardless of victory or defeat, we will have already left the battlefield and are heading west."
Having said this, Gongsun Wulou paused: "This time, we have to make sure that the armored cavalry sergeants are not suspicious. After we break out, we tell them that we are following His Majesty's order to break out of the encirclement and go to the Later Qin Dynasty."
Whoever moved the reinforcements, Han Fan has been out for so long and there is no news, so this time we broke out of the city to ask for help directly, telling them that we have to fight all the way to the territory of Hou Qin to ask for reinforcements and save their families."
