Chapter 1357: Han Banner Under Heaven (Forty-Seven) 4 Clouds Move (Seven)
Yingchuan, the General's Mansion. Tan Feng looked at the ten confidant generals under his command. Over the years, Tan Feng had been in charge of one side in Yingchuan, and he finally showed his talent in both military and political aspects. In terms of military and politics, he confronted the Han State, but in terms of economy, , but they vigorously promoted exchanges with the Han Dynasty, and there was a scene where high-level houses did not communicate with each other, but non-governmental exchanges were booming. In terms of civil affairs, Tan Feng also imitated the land policy of the Han Dynasty, divided fields to households, and vigorously attacked the land Powerful. In Yingchuan, Tan Feng has an innate advantage. This place was originally Han. Years of war have wiped out most of the powerful landowners here. Because they are not native to Qin, Tan Feng can do anything with ease. If you don't have any scruples and do what he says, you are a good citizen. If you don't do what he says, you will be thrown into prison on any charge. Life or death is all he has to say. Over the past few years, Yingchuan's reforms have achieved great success. If we want to talk about where the richest people are within the control of Qin State, naturally Yingchuan should be the first one. If a person who does not know the inside story comes to Yingchuan, he will definitely suspect that he has arrived in the territory of the Han Kingdom, but in fact, Yingchuan is still the number one against the Han Kingdom, pig, pig, island, novel ww.zhuzhuda Wire.
Although he was rich, Tan Feng did not blindly expand his army. He still maintained the number of 50,000 troops under his command. However, compared with when he first arrived in Yingchuan, these 50,000 troops were inferior in quality and equipment. , have made great progress from before. Tan Feng's 50,000-strong army has now completely turned into professional soldiers. They only train every day and are ready to fight at any time. This is different from most of the Qin army, even if it is At Hangu Pass, at least half of the more than 100,000 troops under Lu Chao's command were usually doing farm work.
In addition to vigorous non-governmental exchanges and economic cooperation with the Han State, Tan Feng also had close contacts with the Chu people. From Chu State, he could get more weapons and equipment, and at the same time, he would build Yingchuan into a commercial distribution center linking Han, Chu and Qin. It also brought him a generous income.
Tan Feng is very rich now.
Among the ten generals under his command, eight are former generals of the Qin Army, and the remaining two are local generals who were promoted by Tan Feng after he arrived in Yingchuan. Over the years, they have been kept docile by Tan Feng, and Tan Feng has The ability shown really impressed them, at least for now. There is no need for corruption or the deduction of military pay, and we can live a much more prosperous life than before.
Seeing his generals sitting upright and looking at themselves with stern expressions, Tan Feng nodded with satisfaction, "Generals, I just received news that the Han army and General Lu Chao are at war in Lubin."
There was a buzz in the lobby. All the generals let out a low cry in unison, although it was only a matter of time. But the war has finally arrived, and everyone is still a little shocked. This means that the peace that has lasted for several years is finally coming to an end as Lubin's war begins.
"General, are we going to launch an attack in Yingchuan to contain the Han army and help General Lu defend Hangu Pass?" A general stood up and said with cupped fists. "I have five thousand officers and men who train continuously every day and are highly motivated to fight. I am willing to be the vanguard and capture the Yingshui on the other side of the river for the general."
Tan Feng laughed out loud,
He waved his hand and motioned for the other party to sit down. This man's name was Gongsun Zheng, a small aristocrat in former Korea. He was brave when he was brave, but in politics he was no better than an idiot, but he was loyal to Tan Feng.
"The Han and Qin armies fought twice in Lubing, each with their own victory or defeat. Although the Han army captured three fortresses including Tianjiaping, Xu Yahua's Qian Zhongyi led an assault and defeated one of the Han armies. Now the two The Han army is basically in a state of confrontation, and there is no next move for the time being. However, there is another very important situation. When the two armies are about to start a battle, the Han army suddenly mobilizes a large number of main forces to leave Jinyang and head toward Dayan. Heading towards the county, everyone, do you know what it’s for?”
Everyone shook their heads. According to common sense, the Han army should concentrate its forces at this time. How could it suddenly disperse its forces?
"What may be the real situation, no one would have thought that just more than half a month ago, the Han army suddenly transported a large amount of various ordnance to their third military region, and then the Xiongnu Cavalry Division and the Donghu Cavalry Division left Shannan Pass, and The Fifth Army and the Sixth Army of the First Military Region are also gathering towards Dayan County. After gathering information from many parties, the news I got was incredible, but I couldn't help but not believe it. Gao Yuan mobilized troops and horses in the direction of Dayan County. , It’s actually because of Wang Jian, Wang Jian is back.”
Various exclamations sounded in the lobby, and everyone's expressions were basically shock and confusion. In the Battle of Dayan County a few years ago, Li Xin died in battle, Wang Xiao died in battle, and Wang Jian's whereabouts are unknown. It was an unforgettable defeat for the Qin people. The national power of Qin and Han Dynasty changed because of this battle. Since then , the Han people are getting stronger day by day, while the Qin people are getting worse and worse.
"Wang Jian fled to the desert back then. I heard that he found a good place at the other end of the desert and conquered it. Now he is back." Tan Feng said slowly: "I got it from General Lu Chao According to some information, Wang Jian was invited back by General Lu.”
"This is a great thing. As soon as Ruzui comes, the Han army will fight on several sides. If we also launch an offensive here, won't it immediately cause war to rise on all sides of the Han country?" Sima Yan, the general of the left army, shouted excitedly road.
"Yes, that's right." General Yin Cuo of the right army also nodded repeatedly: "General, you have good relations with the Chu State. If we invite the Chu State to send troops and let them attack Qilu from the Daba Mountain area, then The odds are better."
Tan Feng looked at everyone and shook his head slightly, "The situation may be a little different from what everyone imagined. If we arrange it according to your ideas, I'm afraid we will never be defeated."
"General, why is this?" Everyone looked at Tan Feng in shock.
Tan Feng stood up, walked to one side of the wall, and opened the curtain covering the wall with a crash, revealing a huge map hanging on the wall.
"There are many things that I have always been confused about and couldn't believe, but now, I am finally sure." Tan Feng stared at the generals, "General Lu is afraid that his mind is not on fighting the Han army. Lu Binzhi In the battle, both sides won one battle, and they were evenly matched. But at this moment, the two armies suddenly stopped. Let's take a look. This is General Lu's troop deployment. "Lu Chao pointed at Lu Chao's troops one by one. Assembly point, "What do you think when you see this troop deployment?"
Yin Cuo looked at the place Tan Feng pointed at and said with some confusion: "General, this, there seems to be something wrong with this, right?"
"What's wrong, General Yin?" Lu Chao said with a smile.
"This is completely the opposite. Feng's army came from the east, so how come the general's main force is deployed in the west? It doesn't look like he wants to fight the Han army, but rather like he wants to preserve his strength." Yin Cuo said in astonishment.
"It's not that he wants to preserve his strength, but he's just afraid that General Lu has other thoughts and wants to plot evil." Lu Chao's earth-shattering words caused a deathly silence in the room.
"General Lu's force deployment is not to fight the Han army, but to march into Xianyang. Now the opportunity is ripe for General Lu. Wang Jian stands out and contains the elite troops of the Han army. , and at Hangu Pass, he built a high-walled fortress group in Lubin, which only requires a small number of troops to hold on." Tan Feng looked at the generals and said one word at a time: "I will be more careful. The worry is that under this situation, General Lu will even collude with the Han army. He will march towards Xianyang, while the Han army will stop attacking Hangu Pass. "
"Why did General Lu do this?" Sima Yan turned pale and stammered.
"Why do you want to do this?" Tan Feng smiled bitterly: "Since the death of Master Li Ru and Li, the king and Fan Sui, the first assistant, have started internal affairs reforms and rejected Master Li's country governance strategy from the root. As Li Ru Master Li’s closed disciples, what do you think Lu Chao will do?”
"Is General Lu going to rebel?"
"It's not necessarily a rebellion. Maybe it will be a Qing emperor who will eliminate traitors and traitors." Tan Feng laughed.
"Isn't this a rebellion?" Yin Cuo shouted.
"Everyone, we have to make plans for this situation, so our main task now is not to attack the Han army, but to prevent civil strife." Tan Feng said, "If Lu Chao wants to cause chaos, we have to do What is important is to make every effort to defend the imperial court. Everyone, Yingchuan's current achievements are based on reforms, and the reforms implemented by Fan Sui and Fan Shoufu throughout the country are actually a replica of Yingchuan. The reforms he presided over brought us to where we are today. However, after Fan Shoufu returned to the Central Committee, the reforms were blocked everywhere and were on the verge of failure. I think you all know why they failed in other places. Because in those places, we did not have the support. Sichuan's full support and cooperation, and even those places are doing their best to destroy. Everyone, what I want to tell you is that if Fan Shoufu fails, will we, Yingchuan, be able to survive alone? It is as bright as a bright light and will become an outlier in Da Qin. If Lu Chao succeeds, we will never survive. "
The generals nodded repeatedly. Their happy life was rooted in Yingchuan. Tan Feng's words were not without purpose.
"General, what should we do now?"
"We must be prepared to defend Xianyang. Sima Yan, you lead the left army and enter Wulong immediately. The governor of Wulong is Lu Chao's brother-in-law Gongsun Kang. He has always been a die-hard supporter of Lu Chao. Capture him and include Wulong. We will take the next step based on the situation.”
"General, Wulong is our territory of Great Qin. There are 10,000 local guards there. What if Gongsun Kang resists?" Sima Yan asked.
"Do you still need me to teach you?" Tan Feng said coldly.
"Yin Cuo, you lead the right army to capture Tai'an County. In this way, we will own the three counties of Yingchuan, Wulong and Tai'an. Even if there are any problems in the future, with these three groups, we can fight against General Lu is here to talk the truth. Even if we can’t guarantee to stop Lu Chao’s reverse movement in the end, at least we can protect ourselves and more people.”
"Understood." The generals responded with a roar.
"Gongsun Zheng, when the army is out, you will be responsible for the defense of Yingchuan County. Beware of the Han army on the other side taking advantage of the situation to rob us."
"The general understands that there is a general guarding Yingshui to ensure that the Han army cannot take a step beyond the thunder pool." Gongsun Zheng said with confidence. (To be continued.)
