Chapter 289 Corresponding (Part 1)
Hearing this, Zhang Youzhi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
In fact, Zhang Youzhi understood the importance of this war. Once Luoyang got it, he could basically lock in the way the Hu people went south, especially Luoyang was the imperial capital of several dynasties, which had great political significance.
Once Luoyang is captured and Yanzhou is annexed, Qingzhou can be captured, so that the Yellow River will be completely controlled, and it will be difficult for the Hu people to advance. It can be said that this is a real battle to establish a tripod.
As long as this victory is successful and the success of the Northern Expedition will not matter to the imperial career.
Although Zhang Youzhi didn't know that the territory of the Song Dynasty on Earth was basically like this, he also understood this principle.
However, for this reason, neither the King of Qin nor the Hu people would sit idly by, and this battle stirred up the whole world.
As a minister, at this time, would you like your monarch to go out and take risks?
However, after thinking about it, Your Majesty is the founding monarch, only twenty-four years old, and which of the founding Taizu of the previous dynasties was not the world he immediately seized?
As long as you want to be ahead of everything when you go to war, there will be no changes.
Even so, he was still uneasy.
"Your Majesty, since you have made up your mind to command the army in person, your guards must follow, and the safety of Your Majesty is the first priority in everything. Your Majesty must not go into battle in person." Zhang Youzhi leaned down and kowtowed with a serious expression.
Seeing Zhang Youzhi's posture, he was afraid that he would not agree, Wang Hongyi could only smile bitterly: "You, you're too worried. I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, so I have gone to the battlefield to kill the enemy... Moreover, although I am an imperial commander, I am just a general in the battle. If I send all the generals, how can I go to the battlefield personally?"
However, what Zhang Youzhi said was the same as the opinions of the ministers in the court. Now it was the founding of the country, and the entire success of his fortune was gathered in Wang Hongyi. If there was any loss, the glory, wealth, and even the lives of these ministers would be wasted, so they could not help but be nervous.
However, Wang Hongyi was in charge of the battle in order to be able to grasp the information of war at any time, adapt to changes, boost morale, and especially grasp luck.
Speaking of which, in Wang Hongyi's judgment, Luoyang had to interfere, the Hu people, the King of Qin, and the Duke of Zheng themselves, they all had to interfere. Wang Hongyi had to personally suppress such a large-scale decisive battle point, but just that, he really didn't think about showing off his ability to command and interfere in person, or even going to the front line in person.
Seeing Zhang Youzhi begging like this, he said so.
This time, the total size of the north is 200,000 troops, and 200,000 troops cannot be put into the battlefield. There are at least 30,000 personal troops around to be sanitized at any time, so there will be no problems.
After hearing the emperor's words, Zhang Youzhi bowed to the ground and kowtowed: "I feel relieved if the emperor says this. I offend the emperor rudely and offend him. I also ask the emperor to sue him."
"You are also loyal, why are you guilty? Get up!" Wang Hongyi waved his hand and said, "You go down and prepare, this requires unified dispatch by the cabinet."
"Yes!" Zhang Youzhi leaned back and got up.
A few days passed very quickly.
Thirty thousand troops rolled towards Gunzhou.
The news that Emperor Dacheng personally led a 100,000 army to be launched was spread all over the world in an instant.
Although the distance is far and wide, people who get the news are early and late. Whenever they get the news, they are secretly shocked. They know that this seemingly small battle will probably trigger a decisive battle in the world.
Moreover, Emperor Dacheng's army must be Luoyang. The reason is very simple. First of all, there are three counties in Yanzhou. When the five counties in Yanzhou surrendered, 30,000 was enough. There was no need for Emperor Dacheng to raise an army of 100,000 to follow him. The only target was Luoyang.
Moreover, Luoyang is too special. Dayan takes Luoyang as its capital, and Jinling is the capital after moving south.
It was passed down from Luoyang in ancient times. It is said that the ancient capital of the seven dynasties had dragon energy. It has not yet disappeared and has been valued by the world.
At this time, even if people are enlightened, they will believe in the theory of ghosts and gods and Feng Shui. Feng Shui and ghosts and gods are even applied to daily life.
Not to mention aristocratic families, wealthy families, but ordinary people, who can leave these things with weddings and funerals?
To guard the capital of the world, we must pay attention to safety, transportation, and harmony.
Chang'an is located in the Guanzhong Plain, south of the Wei River and north of the Qinling Mountains. It is a fertile field of thousands of miles and surrounded by mountains. It is a guarantee of safety. Thousands of miles of fertile fields nearby can be self-sufficient.
However, with the development of the population, the population of the capital often exceeds one million. Self-sufficiency represented by Chang'an is no longer possible. Food and materials must be supplied from other places, not to mention that Guanzhong has become a poor place due to soil erosion.
In the future, Beijing will suppress the Northeast, guard the national border, and maintain the canal transportation.
Therefore, Luoyang is better than many factors in terms of transportation and has a prominent position in politics and economy. Not only the princes, but also many people in the Dacheng Dynasty have the voice of being in Luoyang.
There was no rash advance before, but the respective territories had not yet been settled, and other forces were also concerned about them, and they had a balanced way to control them.
Now, the Duke of Zheng from Luoyang expanded outward. The Hu people in the north had swallowed up several princes and became the largest camp in the north. In the south, Wang Hongyi pacified the Dacheng Dynasty and established the Dacheng Dynasty. Although Guo Wentong from Qin was weak, he had the capital to compete for it.
In this case, Luoyang became the core of the world, and the storm unfolded.
Chang'an Royal Palace
This is the third day of the fifth month. The King of Qin sent a large army to confront the Hu people in Liangzhou, and a stalemate was in a while.
However, the King of Qin was in charge of Chang'an, and news kept coming.
That morning, a general, about fifty years old, had wrinkles on his face and was serious and arrived at the entrance of the study room and asked to see the King of Qin.
"The King is waiting for your news, please wait!" The guard said, bowed and walked in. The surroundings were silent, and they were all waiting quietly.
After a moment, a message came out: "Please!"
The general walked in and saw Guo Wentong without saying much. He bowed and bowed and said, "The news of Chengguo has been spread."
As he said that, he raised his hand to present the message file.
Guo Wentong was waiting for several days. Since receiving the news that Dacheng's special envoy rushed to Luoyang, he has been waiting for this news. Chang'an is very close to Luoyang, so he knew the news about Duke Zheng.
After the Duke of Zheng refused to surrender, Guo Wentong immediately waited for Jinling's reaction.
"Well, it's news from Jinling." Guo Wentong took it and weighed it, and smiled: "It seems that it's still a Wanyanshu."
After saying that, I expanded and watched it carefully while using tea.
I saw Guo Wentong frowning, gloomy, or meditating. Finally, he sighed, pushed away the memorial, walked down the ground, and murmured: "Wang Hongyi has raised his troops himself!"
After walking for a few steps, I went back to read the memorandum, and carefully looked at the information. I knew that Lu Gao led 30,000, the navy mobilized 60,000, and Wang Hongyi personally led a 100,000 army. This was really a 200,000 army.
He sighed: "The soldiers who can fight in Luoyang are only 50,000, and the rest are all scattered troops. In order to deal with 50,000, they sent 200,000 troops from land and land at once. They are really courageous and decisive. They are already the emperor, and they can still lead the army to send troops from Luoyang. It's a pity!"
With all his strength, from the perspective of military strategy alone, it is indeed impeccable. In this way, I am afraid that Luoyang will be captured by Wang Hongyi's army in one fell swoop.
Guo Wentong's face became more gloomy and he was pondering.
In terms of strength, he is far inferior to Wang Hongyi, and he doesn't even have the opportunity to Jackie Chan strategically, but he can't wait to die. He has been in Qin for many years. As the King of Qin, he has a group of civil servants and military generals to help him.
Before the Hu people raised their troops to the Central Plains, Guo Wentong still didn't quite understand why Wang Hongyi didn't take his Qin territory. As the news of the Hu people came one by one, he already understood Wang Hongyi's past plans.
Before the Hu people sent troops, Wang Hongyi guessed the current situation, and his Qin land became a barrier in the south.
This made Guo Wentong almost vomit blood, but although he was trapped in a sect, he was unwilling to give up. How could he give up the overall situation of the world until the last moment?
The Hu people seized Youbing, and the next step was to Yiqing and the two states, which would have to engage in a large-scale war with Wang Hongyi.
If a war breaks out and there is no time to deal with Qin Chuan, he will seize Luoyang again, have a barrier, and defeat the Hu people in Liangzhou, so that he can form a third-point momentum.
But let Wang Hongyi get Luoyang again... Guo Wentong was completely desperate.
At that time, Luoyang and Hangu Pass were seized, and Yanzhou and Qingzhou were swept away. With the Yellow River as the boundary, the Hu people would not have a chance. In this way, they would have won most of the world and the essence of the Central Plains. As long as they were managed for a few years, they would be afraid that the Hu people would not be the opponent, let alone Qinchuan.
Although Qinchuan has been in business for many years, it has been broken thousands of miles and is limited in cultivation.
Unless you muddle this trip, take the opportunity to get some benefits, and then hurt both Hu and Dasheng, there will be no chance.
Thinking of this, Guo Wentong's eyes flashed with sparks and he laughed and said, "It seems that I have to intervene!"
Having decided, I immediately acted decisively and said immediately: "You go down!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, he ordered: "Summon the ministers to the orphans, and they all come here to discuss matters."
This naturally attracted confidants, divided troops and generals, and made preparations.
Bingzhou. Changbai County
Since Wang Hongyi ascended the throne and Youzhou was pacified, although the Khan did not change the imperial title of the Han people, he established a county system according to the Han people's system and served as the prefect of the Han people.
The army led by Huerbo won consecutive victories, and even the war in Youzhou immediately supported him. The Khan became more and more satisfied with his beloved son who was not inferior to that of that year. He ordered Huerbo to be the general manager of Bingzhou and to be fully in charge of the military and political affairs of Bingzhou.
After Huerbo returned, this place became a large barracks, with 30,000 cavalry stationed here, and civil servants were held by Han people.
All counties in Bingzhou have thousands of commanders guarding the Han generals, and all counties are held by Han people.
As the leader of the Han general, Fu Yunxin led 30,000 people and his total strength reached 100,000.
The prefect of Changbai County has been transformed into a royal palace and is now the residence of Huerbo.
At this time, Huerbo received the news.
Huerbo was wearing a royal robe and looked handsome. As he grew older, he had been in charge of the army and his majesty was naturally brought out. At this time, he was reading a document and pondering without saying a word.
This information is exactly the two news that Dacheng said it was two, but in fact it was one.
"Thirty thousand army, sixty thousand navy, Emperor Dacheng personally led 100,000 to Luoyang?" Thinking of the information, Huerbo seemed to be able to see a young man in front of him.
The Hu people occupied Youbing, and their strength was unquestionable, but they did not occupy the general trend now. Huerbo has always paid great attention to this man who is younger than him but has occupied the entire south.
He was forced to flee in Shu, but he had never met him yet, so he specially sent a spy to collect portraits of Wang Hongyi from various channels. Because there were many people who had seen Wang Hongyi, the portrait sent to Huerbo made Huerbo know his appearance.
