Chapter 409 Counterattack
"I have a task for you." Yi Feng told Jia Xiong and Liu Heita who were summoned to the point.
Liu Heita did not ask any tasks, so he saluted first, clenched his fist with his right hand and tapped his left chest, and shouted: "Support a thousand miles of troops, use me for a while, use me for the first battle, and I will win!" This attitude was very positive and positive, which made Yi Feng very satisfied. "Very good, you still remember what I once asked the Flag Guard. This is not only my requirement for you, but also your requirement for yourself. Huaihuang Army is the steel knife to defend Huaihuang, and the Flag Guard is the tip of this steel knife. Now, the time to test you. After training for so long, you have to pull out a horse and a horse. This time I will give you an important task, cooperate with the Special Corps, and do not complete it successfully."
"What mission is it?" Jia Xiong did not have the courage of Liu Heita. He did not dare to even know any mission, so he knocked on his chest and shouted the slogan of using me in the first battle, and using the slogan I will win.
"The task is very simple. I want you to bring me a few back." Yi Feng said as he handed the page of paper just written on the table to Jia Xiong.
Jia Xiong took the paper and wrote seven names on it. He first secretly praised the good handwriting of Your Highness. This is a calligraphy font that has never been before. It is written very beautifully and full of everyone's demeanor. I have heard of the three masterpieces of calligraphy and painting poetry of Your Highness. Today is the first time I have seen the original calligraphy of Your Highness with my own eyes. After praising the calligraphy, he carefully looked at the seven names, "Xiao Moha, Pei Wen'an, Yu Gongli, Qi Liang, Liu Jian, Zhong Kui, Ru Ru Tianbao."
"It's these seven people. I ask you not to take these seven people down and bring them back to me."
"These seven people are all confidants of the Bingzhou General Administration Office of the King of Han." Jia Xiong said in surprise. Moreover, these seven people are not only the confidants of the King of Han, but also each of them is a high-ranking general. Not to mention that Xiao Maha was once the god of war in the Southern Dynasty, but now he is in charge of the military affairs of the King of Han. Pei Wen'an is also an important counselor of the King of Han. Just talking about Zhong Kui, those are called the Five Tiger Generals of the Five Tiger Generals of Bingzhou. They are not some small officers under the King of Han. The five are the generals of the five prefectures around the Taiyuan area of Bingzhou Prefecture. Before the reform-level official officials, the five of them were all ranks of generals. Although they have been changed to guards, they are also senior generals. Not to mention that the general manager is regarded as a third-rank high-ranking official. Moreover, the guards are only one upper guards away from the Zhu Kingdom. His Highness actually wants to tie these seven guys up, which is too...
"Your Highness is going to die or live?" Jia Xiong was still surprised, but Liu Heita had already agreed neatly.
"It's better to be alive. Of course, if you can't catch the living, you can't die." Yi Feng said disinterestedly, no matter what the Five Tiger Generals, the God of War in the Southern Dynasty, and whether they are the third-rank generals or the guards who are only one step away from the Zhu Kingdom, since they follow Yang Liang wholeheartedly to deal with him, then he will respect them. Of course, Yi Feng wanted to send the special forces of the flag guard to capture these guys, not only to take revenge. It's mainly to deal with Yang Liang, Yang Liang is not Yang Guang. This guy has only been in the town for two years and has a deep foundation. Although he has the reputation of the emperor's favorite son, he is a man with great ambitions and talent, and has low eyes. But these guys under him are all very powerful. It's natural that Xiao Maha's name of the God of War in the Southern Dynasty was not aware of. He fought countless times from Nanliang to Nanchen.
Zhong had already made a great reputation. Although he is old now, those experiences are still there, and he is an extremely powerful military commander. Although Pei Wen'an had the lowest official position among the few people, this guy had a very old strategy vision. In history, Yang Guang was emperor and Yang Liang rebelled. Wang Zhao advised Yang Liang that most of the generals and soldiers under Yang Liang were from Guanzhong, and that the soldiers' families were all in Guanxi. If they were to use them as the main force, they should launch an attack, march straight into, and directly seize the capital. However, if they only planned to occupy the old land of Northern Qi, separating Guandong and confront Yang Guang, and slowly fighting for the world, then they should use the Guandong people. As a result, Yang Liang was hesitant and chose to use two strategies in the end. He did not even dare to call out the title of direct rebellion. Instead, he claimed that Yang Su would rebel and punish the rebel ministers to clear the king's side.
Wang Jun’s strategy is good, and he can choose any one, but Yang Liang chose both, so he dared not openly to rebel.
As a result, there were only elite troops in Bingzhou and vast old land in Northern Qi, but the original opportunity was missed.
Later, it was Pei Wen'an who thought of a good plan for Yang Liang. Pei Wen'an suggested to Yang Liang that the Hedong area west of Jingxing is under the control of the king, and the troops east of Taihang are also under the command of the king. Then all should be mobilized and the old and weak should be stationed in danger, so that they can expand their land at any time. Then he led the elite troops straight into Pujin Pass and attacked Guanzhong. He also asked himself to be the vanguard, and then asked Yang Liang to lead the main force to follow up, launch a blitzkrieg, advance into the Bashang and Xianyang areas, and attack the capital. He caught Yang Guang off guard, so that he could not have time to assemble the remaining local troops, so that they could directly besiege the center. Once the capital was in, the world would be settled.
Pei Wen'an's plan is similar to Wang Jun's, but it is more detailed. Wang Jun's plan is just a general direction, while Pei Wen'an directly made strategic and tactical arrangements.
At first, Yang Liang did agree with Pei Wen'an's blitz plan.
Pei Wen'an immediately led the vanguard to Puzhou, preparing to seize the bridge and break into Guanzhong. But at this moment, Yang Liang suddenly changed his mind. He asked Pei Wen'an to burn down the Pujin Bridge, an important passageway to attack Guanzhong, and then recalled Pei Wen'an and asked him to be the governor of Jinzhou. At that time, Pei Wen'an told Yang Liang very sadly that military operations must be mysterious and fast, in order to make the enemy unexpected. The king did not personally fight, and I was transferred back, so that the enemy would accomplish the plan, and the major events would be gone forever. Unfortunately, Yang Liang didn't listen at all, so Pei Wen'an went to Jinzhou sadly. As a result, Yang Guang sent Yang Su to lead the 5,000 hurried cavalry that had gathered day and night, and then arrived at Puzhou very late, and then raided the important land of Puzhou. Finally, he assembled the army like snowballs and attacked Taiyuan. Finally, Yang Liang surrendered and was escorted back to Beijing.
It can be said that Yang Liang's rebellion was like a joke, but in fact, Yang Liang had the most elite troops in the world at that time, an excellent group of generals, and a vast and wealthy area. Unfortunately, one general was incompetent and exhausted the three armies. There were only excellent strategists such as Pei Wen'an and Wang Jun, and only excellent generals such as Xiao Moha and Zhong Kui. In the end, it was because of Yang Liang's incompetence and random decision-making that led to the rapid suppression of the rebellion.
Yang Liang was incompetent. But Pei Wen'an was quite excellent. His blitzkrieg plan was quite a bit like a German in later World War II. It can be said that if Yang Liang had not changed his mind suddenly and ordered Pei Wen'an to stop the march. Then Pei Wen'an's forward could have used lightning to raid, seized the Pujin Bridge in one fell swoop, attacked Guanzhong, occupy a bridgehead, and allowed Yang Liang's main force to go straight to the capital and his troops to the city. At that time, Yang Su had only 5,000 cavalry coming to the east, and his movements were much slower than Pei Wen'an.
Yang Liang was like Yang Xuangan later. Pei Wen'an was the kind of Yang Mi who made suggestions to Yang Xuangan three strategies. The process was the same, and the result was the same. Yang Liang and Yang Xuangan both failed, leaving only countless people sighing at the unused plans offered by Pei Wen'an and Li Mi. If their plan was adopted, perhaps history would have another result.
Although history has long proved that Yang Liang is an incompetent guy, Yi Feng still plans to take this opportunity to catch all the seven guys who were rushing to the center of Tianmen. Yang Liang is incompetent. As long as he captures his outstanding subordinates, that guy will be even more unplayable. Of course, Yi Feng has never had the idea of fighting these seven guys in his heart. They are all excellent talents. If an excellent strategist and a brave general can be conquered, it will be a huge help. Although the possibility is very low and the difficulty is very high, how can you know if you don’t try it? Even if you don’t succeed, it doesn’t matter. You can’t use it yourself, and you can’t use it for Yang Liang. You don’t have to kill them. As long as you are house arrest and detained in Huaihuang is enough, it is definitely equivalent to breaking Yang Liang’s arms.
"I'll leave this task to you. Do you understand the key?" Yi Feng asked.
"Yes, Your Highness needs to be secretly done." Jia Xiong was not brave, but his mind was still very useful. Since these people were in Tianmen Pass, when the army entered the pass and demolished the other party's tricks, they could have captured them directly. Why did they have to send the flag guards and special departments so troublesome to be responsible? He just thought about it and realized that the identities of these seven people were still very sensitive. If he took action directly, these people would definitely not be allowed to deal with him by himself in the end, and they could only be escorted to the capital. If they were not done well, these people could be protected in the end. Therefore, secretly taking action and directly leaving these people missing is undoubtedly a good way. In addition, these people must be useful to Your Highness, otherwise they would not have to be so troublesome and kill them directly. At that time, it would be enough to get a dead in the chaos.
After Jia Xiong and Liu Heita left, Yi Feng sat in the simple wing room in the small temple, staring at the candle flames on the table, and was in a daze. He even thought, after taking Tianmen Pass, he shot back and took down Taiyuan City, and then what happened. But this idea was just to think about it. Yang Jian was not dead yet, and his Huaihuang Army was not as strong as it was. Besides, he did not lack territory now. The Emperor gave him the Youzhou Prefecture and the 32 states, and he only had one real control. When did he really control these 32 states, and even half of them, he would have the ability to openly pull the flag or seize more territory. Now, he really didn't need too much territory, and he couldn't digest it at all. The harm outweighed the benefits, and it was not worth the loss.
Yang Jian seems to have five years of life, and if history does not change, five years is enough for him to prepare enough. He should continue to accumulate strength, and even be safest. In fact, there is no need to break up with Yang Liang completely now. But Yi Feng cannot be so rational. If he does not show his teeth properly, he is afraid that others will not face his position at all. And he is still worried about one thing. Yang Jian does have five years of life in history, but Yang Yong will be deposed soon. If history is still the same, what will Yang Yong be deposed after the Northern Expedition? At that time, it would be a big trouble for Yi Feng. He only has two consequences. One is
He and his deposed position will most likely be recalled to the capital, and he will never be able to sit in the position of the chief general of Youzhou. Another result is that his position as the crown prince remains unchanged and he is still the crown prince, but this possibility is very small. Moreover, even if he is really the crown prince must be protected, then once the crown prince dies, he, as the crown prince, will not be able to continue to stay in Youzhou and still have to return to Daxing City. This will never be the result that Yi Feng needs. After thinking about it, it seems that the current situation has entered a strange situation again, and he actually needs to maintain the current situation. In other words, Yang Yong continues to sit on the crown prince, which seems to be the most beneficial for him in the next few years.
With Yang Yong continuing to be the crown prince, his status as the grandson will not be affected. He can also continue to maintain the current situation and stay in Youzhou. Yang Yong continues to be the crown prince until Yang Jian's death. Five years between this means that he can have five years to develop himself. This is really a ridiculous inference. Yi Feng himself has the urge to laugh. But that's the fact. When Yang Yong becomes the emperor, he may have to deal with Yi Feng first. But after all, he and Yi Feng are one of them all for a day. Once Yang Yong is deposed, Yi Feng will be implicated immediately. It's really funny, but the fact is so magical.
As for how to ensure that the position of Prince Yang Yong is not lost, Yi Feng also finds it difficult, but it is worth a try. After all, compared with history, although Yang Guang has never been the commander of the Northern Expedition, Yang Yong has never been the commander of the Northern Expedition. But now Yang Yong not only replaced Yang Guang as the commander of the Northern Expedition, but Yang Guang was also under house arrest in the capital, not to mention that there was a exchange of kings and five general managers exchanged. This seemed to weaken the prestige of the kings, especially the blow to Yang Guang and Yang Liang, but the interests of this matter were Yi Feng and the prince.
Perhaps people who know his background will think that he should help Yang Guang no matter what. After all, that is his biological father. But Yi Feng is not the real Yang Lin after all, and he and Yang Guang have no real father-son relationship. Besides, does there be a real father-son relationship in the royal family? Yang Yong will not make Yi Feng feel better when he becomes the emperor. Yang Guang will admit his illegitimate son. It would be fine if he is an ordinary illegitimate son. After all, his biological mother is the former crown princess, and he has exposed his identity in front of the world. Everyone knows that he is the son of Concubine Yuan, the son of the crown prince Yang Yong, and the eldest grandson of the emperor. And one day in the future, Yang Guang becomes the emperor. How can he tell the world that Yang Lin is actually the son of Concubine Yuan and the son of Concubine Yuan? What can he say, can he say?
