Six hundred and fifty chapters Western Army General
When meeting Guo Kui, Zhang Yue must appear serious.
Guo Kui was a military general who was worshiped as a privy envoy with the same signature, and he almost became a military envoy.
However, the other party is not an easy person to get along with. From his official experience, it can be seen that this person is quite arbitrary and willful. It is estimated that except Han Qi, no one will give up his face, so even Han Jiang, who has always been good at tolerating others, is
Tell Zhang Yue that in Shaanxi, only one of him and Guo Kui can stay.
Han Jiang is now the official Deputy Privy Envoy, and Guo Kui doesn't have to blame him.
Zhang Yue rested for one night and then went to attend the appointment.
The meeting place was a Baiyun Tower built in Yanzhou, where you can overlook the scenery of Luoshui. It was built in the name of Fan Zhongyan with funding from Guo Kui in the past.
Many Yanzhou literati and poets came here to compose poems and sing harmony.
Guo Kui is hosting a banquet here today.
Zhang Yue just went out and saw a familiar man standing in front of the door waiting for him.
"Senior Brother Cai!" Zhang Yue was surprised and happy.
Cai Que laughed and said: "Sanlang, no, I have met Zhang Sheren, the official!"
Zhang Yue smiled and said: "That's how you talk about life."
Zhang Yue looked at Cai Que and saw the vicissitudes of his appearance. He punched him on the shoulder and said, "Senior brother, he's old!"
Cai Que lamented: "How can I not grow old?"
Having said this, Cai Que said: "Thank you very much for recommending me to Mr. Han. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I, Cai Que, will remember this kindness in my heart for the rest of my life."
Zhang Yue said: "I am just promoting talents. When Han Gong asked me, I happened to think of you. It is Han Gong who can decide whether to use it or not."
Cai Quedao: "I have never met Mr. Han. If Sanlang hadn't introduced him, how could I have had this opportunity?"
The two chatted, and Zhang Yue was very pleased to learn that Cai was really valued by Han Jiang.
Zhang Yue asked Cai Quedao: "How successful is this dispatch of troops?"
Cai Que subconsciously looked in all directions. In fact, the two of them were riding horses on an empty street, so no one would eavesdrop.
Cai Que lowered his voice and said to Zhang Yue cautiously: "Taking Luo Wucheng is a good move, but also a dangerous move. If Luo Wucheng is taken, the two states of Xixia and Yinxia will be in danger, and capturing Hengshan will be a matter of time."
"But it's sixty miles from Suide to capture Luowu. It's like a man leaping right under the eyes of the Xixia people. It's like an isolated city is hanging far away. It's hard to predict if the Xixia country comes to fight for victory."
Zhang Yue understood that during a war, the battle lines of both sides are usually intertwined. If there is an obvious protrusion, it can easily become the focus of competition between the two sides.
The location of Suide City is already the location of the salient, and then taking Luowu City from Suide City is the salient of the salient.
If it is defeated and the Song army can hold on, sooner or later the Hengshan tribes will come to surrender to the Song army. Xixia will also lose the danger of Hengshan and lose the opportunity to compete with the Song Dynasty. Therefore, Xixia will definitely come here to fight the Song army.
Since it was a decisive battle, once the Song Dynasty failed.
Then the resources invested by the imperial court and the savings in Shaanxi and Hedong in the past few years will also be wiped out.
Zhang Yue sighed deeply when he heard this. Otherwise, what does it mean to accomplish all his efforts in one battle? He has always been opposed to the current strategy of capturing Hengshan.
If you want to bet on the fate of the country and engage in a strategic decisive battle, you must have enough confidence.
"Sanlang, if you don't come to serve as a judge under the Prime Minister of Han, why do you go to Qinzhou to submit to the judge? Are you not optimistic about this battle early on?"
"I……"
Cai Que's words were somewhat doubtful.
Zhang Yue was someone who kept secrets deep in his heart, so he smiled bitterly and didn't answer.
I'm afraid that deep down in Cai Que's heart, he thinks that he should recommend him to do things that he is not optimistic about and cannot do. Normal people will have this idea.
Cai Que took a deep look at Zhang Yue and said, "Sanlang, you must have something to hide! It doesn't matter, I believe you!"
One word of faith from you is worth more than a thousand words.
Zhang Yue was moved and said: "Thank you, Senior Brother Cai!"
Cai Que laughed and scolded: "Hypocritical."
Zhang Yue and Cai Que went to Baiyun Tower together. On that day, Guo Kui held a banquet. Except for Han Jiang, all officials from Yanzhou were present.
Zhang Yue and Cai Que climbed up the stairs. Zhang Yue's crimson robe attracted the attention of countless people. In a border state like Yanzhou, there were not many important officials in crimson robes like Zhang Yue.
Cai Que greeted the local military and political officials in Shaanxi with familiarity, and at the same time introduced Zhang Yue one by one.
"This man's name is Wang Wenliang. He was originally a slave of the Xixia important minister's slave Pang. After being killed by the Xia Lord, he defected to our court. Because he had a blood feud with Xixia, he helped us instigate some Hengshan tribes to defect to us. This man also took the initiative to ask for help many times.
He fought decisively with Xixia, so he was highly appreciated by Xianggong Han."
Zhang Yue nodded when he heard this. At present, Han Jiang was using the Fan general. This person's status was even higher than that of ordinary Han generals, and he was very domineering in his actions.
Zhang Yue said to Cai Que: "This person is not a good person."
Cai Quedao: "I also told Mr. Han that this person should not be reused, but Mr. Han didn't listen."
Zhang Yue glanced at Cai Que and knew that Cai Que was not yet Han Jiang's true confidant.
Zhang Yue exchanged a few words with Wang Wenliang. Wang Wenliang did not speak Chinese well, but it could be seen that his respect for Zhang Yue was different from the rudeness and arrogance of those Han generals just now. It seemed that Wang Wenliang followed the local customs and understood the civil servant competition in the Song Dynasty.
The military commander is noble.
However, when Wang Wenliang heard that Zhang Yue was only a general judge of one state, his expression dimmed.
"This is a good idea."
Even Zhang Yue, who was in the capital, had heard of the reputation of the generals of the Western Army.
However, the Zhe family is actually a member of the Party, but has served the Song Dynasty for several generations. Yang Wudi and Yang Ye's wife is from the Zhe family. Compared with the Hengshan Fan tribe that has joined the Hengshan tribe in recent years, the Zhe family has long been regarded as one of the Song Dynasty's own
.
"The man who was following him was named Zhe Jishi. This time he also agreed with the strategy of capturing Luowu City and proposed the strategy of taking advantage of the situation to capture the land in Henan. Now he is also highly used by Xianggong Han."
Zhang Yue understands that it is like supporting the reform in the court and being re-emphasized, but opposing the reform and leaving the country.
Those who supported the capture of Hengshan in the Shaanxi frontier army were re-employed, while those who opposed the capture of Hengshan were bound to be sidelined.
When Zhe Keshi and Zhe Jishi bowed to Zhang Yue, they were not as ignorant as Wang Wenliang. They knew Zhang Yue's status and bowed respectfully.
Zhang Yue still attached great importance to the Zhe family at this time.
After a while, Cai Que said to Zhang Yue: "Zhong'e is here!"
Zhang Yue turned around and saw that Zhong Er was now very famous. He first captured Suide City, and then was demoted for the crime of provocation. Now he was re-enlisted because of Han Jiang.
Zhong Er's reward for Han Jiang was to present a strategy for capturing Luowu City.
This strategy was very risky, and Zhang Yue couldn't figure out for a while whether Zhong E was here to repay his kindness or to trick Han Jiang.
Now Zhong'e was recommended by Han Jiang to be in charge of Yanyanqian. I heard from Cai Que that this time he led the troops in a decisive battle with the Xia army and that it was probably this person who captured Luowu City.
After seeing Zhang Yue, Zhong E cupped his hands and said, "I dare to ask, is it Zhang Sheren who opposes the general's proposal to seize Hengshan in front of the officials?"
Zhang Yue glanced at Zhong E, how did he know about this?
Are you here to cause trouble?
Ps: There is a little less today, but there will be two updates tomorrow. Please give me a monthly ticket during the National Day double period.
