"If we can defeat the Leng family and significantly weaken the Leng family's strength, when the Leng family cannot control the situation, the imperial court will seriously consider recruiting me and others!"
Chao Shili finished this sentence with a confident tone, which made Huang Xiaobo and others infected by his confidence.
Huang Xiaobo smiled happily: "So that's it, hey, it seems that the Leng family is indeed very unpopular. Not only is our Hill angry with him, but even the emperor can't stand them? Very good, very good, what Brother Yisheng meant
I heard it, that is to say, at least until the Leng family is completely defeated, the imperial court will definitely not interfere in the affairs of Shu, right?"
Chao Shili smiled and nodded: "Of course!"
Huang Xiaobo laughed: "That's good, that's good. If we only attack one Leng family, we still deserve him (meaning we are not afraid). It's not that I'm a coward. The court... can't provoke it, but it's better not to provoke it.
Ah, well, in that case, our goal is very clear now, to defeat the Leng family!"
An Mingting added: "The key now is Leng Yue's elite army of more than 20,000 people. How do we deal with it?"
The topic turned back again, but this time the three of them set their sights on Chao Shili. Now Chao Shili's intelligence has been recognized by the three of them.
Chao Shili was not pretentious, and smiled slightly: "This time Leng Yue came, the four guards army united together, and it was quite an unstoppable force. Although we have 120,000 men, most of them are poor people who have just gathered.
If the peasants fight head-on with them, they are afraid that if the front army fails slightly, the whole army will be in danger of collapse. This is extremely undesirable. The strength of our army lies in the morale of the people, and the people of the surrounding counties and counties are rushing to join; the enemy's
Being strong depends on being well-trained and well-equipped; if we concentrate our troops to fight decisively with them, we will play into the enemy's hands. If we follow the foolish intentions of our subordinates, we can divide our troops into three groups. The big leader will lead an army of 60,000, and the three leaders and
Each of my subordinates has 30,000 troops, and they are scattered in three groups. Although the enemy's troops are sharp at the moment, they are actually not very strong. Once our army is dispersed, the enemy will hesitate. If we are also divided into three groups, they will pursue us separately.
, then the strength of each group is only a few thousand... The three leaders must not think that the strength of the enemy and ourselves has not changed after being dispersed in this way. In fact, this is not the case. You must know that their troops are standing troops. After losses in battle, they cannot be replenished easily, and we
Our troops come from the people along the way. The more circles we take them around and the more places we go, the more troops we have at our disposal. In this way, the comparison of our strength will slowly change.
, until our strength exceeds the past..."
"Good idea!" Huang Xiaobo clapped his hands and praised
Li Changshun was a little depressed: "That's good, but it's not a problem if we just keep running away like this. Can the Leng family be wiped out by going in circles?"
Chao Shili chuckled: "Of course there will be no battle without fighting. Not only must we fight, but we must make a name for ourselves once we fight."
Li Changshun's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Is there going to be a war? That's great. Brother Chao, please tell me, I'm listening!"
Chao Shili took out a simple map drawn on sheepskin, spread it out on the ground, and said: "Three leaders, please look, this is Jiangyuan, and this is Chengdu. Because Jiangyuan is the front line to defend against Tibet, it is the same as Chengdu."
There is an official road connected between them. The official road is easy to travel, and it is most convenient for large groups of people to move. I expect that Leng Yue's army will definitely use this official road to directly attack our Jiangyuan. So if we follow what my subordinate said just now, abandon the defense of Jiangyuan, and the soldiers
If they go in three ways, Leng Yue will have to choose between dividing his troops or not dividing his troops. Just now, his subordinates made assumptions based on his division of troops. Now let's see what the consequences will be if he doesn't divide his troops. Think about it, three leaders.
If Leng Yue doesn't divide his troops, who will he chase?"
Li Changshun slapped his thigh: "It goes without saying that he must be chasing my brother-in-law! Isn't that bad?"
Chao Shili shook his head: "If Leng Yue doesn't divide his troops, the possibility of chasing the big leader is very high, but there is nothing wrong with it. The big leader is mostly active in Xichuan. The terrain here is very familiar. As long as it is not reversed,
Come and start a fight with Leng Yue, there shouldn't be any difficulty in leading the sheep with you."
Huang Xiaobo asked: "I will lure them away. This is no problem, but what should I do after I lure them away? Besides, what are you going to do?"
Chao Shili smiled and said: "The big leader asked well, what are we going to do? This is the key." He straightened his face and said: "The big leader has two choices when he goes here. One is to go northeast and make a decision.
To attack Maozhou, the second is to go southwest and capture Yazhou. No matter which way the leader chooses, as long as Leng Yue follows, there will be no obstacles on the road to Chengdu. At this time, the three leaders and their two subordinates
The army will have the opportunity to make an uppercut, attack Chengdu by surprise, and destroy the Leng family's lair in one fell swoop!"
Huang Xiaobo and the others immediately opened their eyes wide and launched a surprise attack on Chengdu?!
The first person to react was Li Changshun, who was overjoyed: "This is a good idea, this is a good idea. If Leng Yue leaves, Chengdu will be empty! Let's fight now. We are not afraid of not being able to capture Chengdu! What if we capture Mr. Leng Xiang?"
Son, ah haha, great things have happened!"
An Mingting also looked happy: "Yes, this method is feasible!"
Unexpectedly, Chao Shili suddenly bowed to Huang Xiaobo and said apologetically: "My subordinate's plan is to put the big leader in danger. It's a sin! Please punish the big leader!"
Huang Xiaobo waved his hand and smiled: "Hey, hey, hey, what is the crime? You are doing it for the good of us all, what is there to blame? Besides, on the roads in Xichuan, I really don't believe that Leng Yue can compare to me.
We are familiar with him. If he takes a detour in Xichuan, he will not be able to get around me, Huang Xiaobo, in the next life! Needless to say, I will do this "lead the sheep" thing! ...But Brother Yisheng, your surprise attack on Chengdu... This can really succeed.
Is that so? Chengdu is the home of the Leng family, so there is no reason to be unprepared."
Chao Shili smiled: "There must be defenses. Chengdu Mansion has been run by the Leng family for more than a hundred years, and its defense capabilities cannot be ignored. However, no matter how good the defense facilities are, there must be people inside to be effective. Now
The Leng family army in Shuzhong has mobilized in large numbers. The Chengdu government has no troops left. As long as we take a good detour so that they don't have much defense, a surprise attack on Chengdu is still quite certain."
An Mingting hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Yisheng, if Leng Yue comes out, the Chengdu Prefecture will naturally have few troops now, but the Xingyuan Guards of Hanzhong and the Juzhou Guards of Guizhou must be gathering in Chaoshu.
It is said that the third and seventh guards of the Chengyu Guards in Yuzhou must be rushing to Chengdu now. In this case..."
Chao Shili laughed: "So it depends on which of us has longer legs. As long as we arrive in Chengdu before the third and seventh guards of Chengdu and Chongqing, Chengdu will definitely get it. If we are slow... then...
It doesn't matter, we can just let Chengdu go and go down the river to get Yuzhou. It won't make things easier for the Leng family."
Huang Xiaobo laughed: "This is feasible, but brothers Yisheng, if you take Chengdu, what will my army do here?"
Chao Shili smiled slightly and said: "If Chengdu is really captured, how can Leng Yue continue to wander around with the big leader? He must be going back to aid Shuzhong. In this case, he can only turn around and leave. Waiting for him to turn around, the big leader will follow
He did the opposite. Previously, he chased the big leader, but now the big leader can chase him. But even so, the big leader should not push too hard, and be careful of him turning back."
Huang Xiaobo said with emotion: "Brother Yisheng, you are really a great talent in the world. If our wishes come true, you will be the number one!"
Chao Shili solemnly said: "The big leader is in serious trouble. If the big leader hadn't taken him in, Shili would have had a higher heart than the sky and could only sit trapped in the mountains. How could he be what he is today? The big leader had the kindness to know and meet Shili. These things
There’s no need to say anything more.”
Huang Xiaobo nodded without saying much, patted Chao Shili's shoulder, looked at An Mingting and Li Changshun, and said resolutely: "In this battle, according to Brother Yisheng's strategy, our troops are divided into three groups...
I will lead an army of 60,000 to the north to attack Maozhou. Shunzi and brothers Yisheng will pretend to go all the way to the southwest to attack Yazhou. After Leng Yue makes his decision, we will decide the next step based on the situation. Shunzi, you
He is not as smart as Brother Yisheng. He Bing is going all the way this time. You must listen to Brother Yisheng's arrangements and do not be reckless. Do you understand?"
Li Changshun patted Chao Shili on the shoulder and said carelessly: "Don't worry, don't worry, Shunzi knows what level he is. I'd rather leave this mental matter to Brother Chao to worry about. I'll just listen to the arrangements."
I’m going to kill in the east, and I promise not to care about the guys in the west... How about this, is this okay?”
Huang Xiaobo nodded: "That's for the best. If something goes wrong this time because you disobey instructions, what will I do to you when you see it?"
Li Changshun scratched his head: "Brother-in-law, am I not that easy to worry about?"
"What do you think?" Huang Xiaobo glared at him and then turned his head and said to Chao Shili: "Brother Yisheng, I will leave Shunzi to you. If he dares to be stubborn, you can whip him for me. If he dares
Just say nonsense, when we meet, I will come and smoke it myself!"
Although Huang Xiaobo said this, Chao Shili did not dare to take it seriously. Although Li Changshun was very respectful to Huang Xiaobo's brother-in-law, it was because he was actually brought up by Huang Xiaobo, so he did not dare to contradict Huang Xiaobo. It would have been someone else.
But there is no such treatment. Even if it is An Mingting, he still respects it on the surface. In fact, if it weren't for Huang Xiaobo's good relationship with An Mingting, he might not be able to give him much face. But now it is Huang Xiaobo after all.
After putting down his words, Chao Shili estimated that going to Li Changshun this time would still give him some face. His requirements were not high. As long as Li Changshun did not make the decision on major matters without authorization, the rest would follow him.
It’s nonsense for the leader to take care of the three leaders.
The rebels quickly took action. They brought a batch of grain stored in Jiangyuan County and distributed all the remaining grains to the local people. This move brought a good reputation to the rebels - of course their
His reputation is already pretty good. After all, he has divided the property of many landlords. He is the most practical person. Once he gets the things, he naturally feels that the rebels are good people.
Leng Xiang's expression was grim, he looked at the letter in his hand and sneered: "There are some people in the imperial court who are so restless. Zhang Huanzhi is such a loser. They think that our Leng family can't do anything about it, so they openly do this
They clamored in Luoyang, saying that the Leng family was too oppressive, which is why this incident happened... I don't know who came up with this exclusive method first... If it hadn't been for Lin You (Emperor Wanchang) to stabilize our foreign four
The Leng family has relaxed some of its business rights, so how can I, the Leng family, engage in this tea franchise?"
The person in front of him was a middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to him. This man was sitting on a chair, with his back straight and in high spirits. At first glance, he looked like a man who had lived in the military for a long time.
He is Leng Xiang's younger brother. The deputy commander of the Chengyu Guard also serves as the commander of the first guard, Leng Yue. He is also the general manager of the march to suppress the rebel army.
Leng Yue stayed in the military camp all year round and had a stronger military aura than Leng Xiang. After hearing what his brother said, he didn't say a word and just nodded.
Leng Xiang seemed to be used to his younger brother's appearance, and said again: "Second brother, I know your ability. It's up to you to annihilate the rebel army. Brother, I can rest assured. But second brother, Zhang Huanzhi was defeated last time. Although it was
He is underestimating the enemy, but he thinks that brother, I am afraid that not all of the rebellious army is full of wine and rice sacks. There may be one or two capable people. You should be more careful when you go this time. Although brother, I believe that you will not do anything.
A big situation, but now because of Zhang Huanzhi's defeat, the direction of the court is quite unfavorable to us. If we cannot control the situation as soon as possible and wipe out the bandits, the power of our Leng family in the court will be damaged... More importantly
Yes, once the deterrence of my Leng family in the court decreases, the possibility of the fourth prince to win the favor of the Holy Emperor will decrease, and the farther he will be from the throne. If the fourth prince loses the opportunity, whether it is the crown prince ascending the throne or the prince of Yueyang
Taking the position will be very disadvantageous for my Leng family. Then...well, does the second brother understand what it means to be a brother?"
Leng Yue nodded expressionlessly and said: "I understand, I will defeat the bandits as soon as possible, don't worry, brother."
Leng Xiang nodded and smiled: "Since the second brother is aware of the current situation, I will not say more. I will personally send the second brother off tomorrow. I wish the second brother an early victory!"
Leng Yue's stern face finally showed a faint smile: "Thank you, brother"
Leng Xiang nodded and patted Leng Yue's shoulder: "Okay, I'm afraid you have some matters to deal with in the army, so I won't delay you much as a brother, go."
Leng Yue stood up and cupped his hands towards Leng Xiang: "My little brother is gone, big brother, take care of yourself."
----------Well, the impact of this battle in Sichuan will be relatively large, so I will put more emphasis on it, mainly because it will be the beginning of a big chaos... Well, that's it
