If the state is in danger, if it is not in a mess, it can only shelve internal disputes for the time being and fight the enemy with one heart and one mind.
At present, more than one person holds supreme power in Zhang's Liang state.
It is reasonable to say that it should be Zhang Chonghua's eldest son, but Zhang Yaoling is really too small.
According to the custom of the Han family, when the king is unable to manage politics, people such as the queen or the Empress Dowager can also intervene, but the premise is to get the endorsement of the king, or the king himself is afraid of them, which is equal to the indirect influence given by the king.
Zhang Chonghua's mother, ma'er, is a big family in Xiliang, but Zhang Jun was very cruel before he died. Ma'er was cleaned in order to clear the obstacles to power for his successor.
The queen of Zhang Liang? The family is not weak, but compared with the overall gentry of a country, it can only be said that it is a drop in the ocean, and it has not had time to operate, and its influence can only be said to be very general.
Zhang's family separated Xiliang. Even Zhang Chonghua's formal founding of the people's Republic of China was less than two years ago. Before, he was still known as the Xiliang shogunate, which means that the Zhang family has not made a gorgeous turn from a member of the aristocratic family and has gone too far towards the Royal family.
In fact, the political pattern of Zhang's Liang army is really similar to that of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The difference is that the Zhang family is dominant in this corner of Xiliang. With the lessons of Sima's family, the Zhang family, the strongest family in Xiliang, did not less suppress other families, so there was a foundation for the Zhang family to stand firm in Xiliang.
There is a special name to describe the situation of the Zhang family, that is, the warlord. The warlords said that some were not on the table. The political pattern was determined by blood relatives, so that the senior officials of the Liang state of Zhang were basically surnamed Zhang. None of the generals of the unified army, especially those who could open the shogunate alone, was not surnamed Zhang.
There are many people surnamed Zhang in China, and there are many origins. They are not the same ancestor, but it is a convenience to have the same surname with the king. For example, Zhang Chong, the governor of Jincheng, is benefited by his surname.
Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi are also surnamed Zhang. They are also the descendants of Zhang Jun. under the warlord politics, they will have more convenience. They have the right to unify the army left by Zhang Jun when he was alive, and have their own hard-working confidant group. After Zhang Chonghua's accident, they inadvertently became the strongest and the highest voice in Zhang's cool country.
The threat of a large-scale invasion by the Han army kept the two brothers rational in their struggle for power. They didn't pay for the army to fight. However, you and I sent assassins to each other, not necessarily to kill each other, but mainly to cut off each other's canine teeth, and some people came to blood mold.
Guzang can find the corpses left over from the vendetta on the roadside every day. It is often heard that someone's family was touched by an assassin and wiped his neck. This phenomenon stopped until the Han Army really came to Jincheng.
"Both Gu and di are determined to fight by killing the spies sent by the king of Han." When Zhang Zuo spoke, Zhang Tianxi stood next to him. He raised his hand and knocked on his chest: "Gu and his brother were born of the same father. When the country is in crisis, he will unite his brothers."
It seems that the things that happened before are false. The two brothers don't want to kill each other. It's also an illusion to kill each other's profitable subordinates. They all put on a very sincere and United face.
"Brother Gu, unfortunately, fell into an enemy. The thief army took advantage of the situation to assassinate the pillars of our Dynasty, but it won't make us afraid and dare not resist!" Zhang Zuo counted all the previous blood debts on the head of the state of Han. He wanted to show that killing each other was nothing. At last, he said excitedly: "the thieves are all dirty, which will only make us more share a common hatred and fight with them to the end!"
None of the people who were called to listen to the lines were fools. Some time ago, the situation in Zhang's Liang country was really chaotic enough. The spies in the Han country stopped talking about it. Their own people also killed and killed. Since they were called here today, it is estimated that there is a final conclusion about what to do.
Zhang Tianxi actually wants to kiss his mouth, but it's not good to do so, otherwise the ostentation will be gone. He didn't mean anything else. He just tangled with Zhang Zuo one by one, as if Liang Wang had been handed by Zhang Zuo.
The two brothers have secretly decided to shelve the dispute for the time being. At least they should fight back the invasion of the Han Army First, and then whether they should continue to fight for the throne of Liang Wang or continue to fight. In order to show their sincerity, the two decided to bring their confidants. In addition to the garrison in the western regions, they basically mobilized to fight the Han Army to the East.
After a lot of struggle, the result is that Zhang Zuo is really much stronger than Zhang Tianxi because he is his brother. In order, Zhang Zuo has become the commander-in-chief of the whole army, and Zhang Tianxi can only get a deputy in order.
Fame should be contested, and military power should be clearly explained first. After making a gentleman's agreement, when you go to the battlefield, you don't have to separate one of yours and mine. They are all cool troops. Whoever needs to go up is who goes up.
Of course, many words are just words. Having an agreement is just more face, so that no one can do too much. If you really want to be impartial, who believes that whose brain is really caught in the door.
This is an indoor position making meeting. It's the turn of the two brothers to make a statement. On such an occasion, it doesn't matter what you think in your heart, what you do behind your back, and no one will say that each one is impassioned.
Guzang has long been a large military camp both in Chengli and outside the city. In addition to the troops transferred from the west, they are the young and strong recruited by various counties. No matter what kind of mess Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi are, they are at least doing their best to prepare for the war.
Including Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi, both of them have tried to find out whether there is a possibility of a war strike with the state of Han. The detailed work from the state of Han does not have so much authority. The detailed work is only to make the interior of Zhang Liangguo more chaotic. A war has broken out in Jincheng. For the two brothers, it can't be delayed. At least they should show their own arrangement and fight again.
The number of Zhang's Liang troops assembled in Jinxing county and Guangwu County behind Jincheng has reached 80000, most of which were transferred back from the western regions and domestic counties in advance.
There are nearly 150000 soldiers and horses gathered around guzang. They should go to the front line only after Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi swear together.
In the face of the massive invasion of the Han Army, Zhang Liangguo can be described as a national mobilization. From the 12-and-a-half-year-old boy to the 40-and-50-year-old man, those who can carry weapons do their best to recruit, and even the strong women do not let go behind. It can be regarded as a large army with a total force of more than 300000 people.
The swearing in meeting was held very grandly. The leaders and people went to the stage. The soldiers below also had a good meal before they started. The troops started in batches.
"It is basically impossible for the king of Han to stop the offensive." Zhang Zuo didn't take a carriage when he set out for the war. Instead, he rode on a majestic Xiji horse and wore armor with little practical protection, that is, the fancy armor used in Memorial and sacrificial ceremonies, Otherwise, dozens of kilograms have been put on the body for a long time, and people can't stand the horse: "only when we show our greatest determination and give the Han army the greatest heavy damage, can we have a chance to breathe."
Zhang Tianxi didn't deal with Zhang Zuo, but he wanted to agree with Zhang Zuo.
Even if the new leader of the state of Zhang Liang succeeded to the throne not long ago, there was no time to benefit all the people, and there was not much time to win the hearts of the people, but Zhang Chonghua's capture was still a great blow to the whole country. Who made him the king of a country.
When the leader of the state was captured, he didn't stop taking risks when he didn't know whether it was true or not. Zhang Zuo and Zhang Tianxi usually had bad intentions in their business, but in this case, they became a good thing. At least they had a little strength at hand. They could stand up and turn the tide in times of great difficulties. That is, only one came out to turn the tide, but there were two in contention.
"It's all a hammer deal." Zhang Tianxi is young, but he is not impulsive. In fact, he does not fully agree with Zhang Zuo's idea: "if the war is defeated, there is really no room to save the situation."
A country with a population of 1.34 million warlords and people from the western regions has brought out more than 300000 troops. In addition to being disabled, the young and strong in China are basically recruited. With the quality of the troops, winning is also a situation of heavy casualties, and they don't know whether they can win or not. Anyone will feel very guilty.
"Do you have a better way?" Zhang Zuo could still laugh: "there are so many examples in the south. Look at Shi Jie, and then look at Tuoba Xianbei. The king of Han Dynasty is completely victorious. He immediately chased and fought hard without concentrating his troops to resist. Was he broken through one layer after another?"
For Zhang Zuo, the death of the state of Zhao in Shijie was ultimately his own fault. He didn't crush Liu Yan when he was still weak. It was a kind of way to go so little at a time. It was also a time for Liu Yan to train his troops. At the beginning, millions of troops rushed over and ran over him with one finger. There were so many things behind him.
"If you can't fight, you know it in your heart." Zhang Zuo smiled quite heartily: "the Xiliang man should have the courage to do it knowing he can't do it."
Zhang Tianxi didn't know what to say in response.
"The king of the Han Dynasty has the spirit to swallow the world and always misses recovering the old land of the Han family. That's why brother Wang has trouble sleeping and eating. I heard that the kings will take risks." Zhang Zuo paused, wondering if he really took his heart and lungs out, He lowered his voice and said, "Xiliang is also the old land of the Han family. We must fight early and late. My brother knows better. We can't fight twice. If we don't learn from Sima's family and Li's (adult Han), we still have a chance. Moreover, it's good for us to gather the national military strength to shake it."
"The king of the Han Dynasty wants to recover the old land of the Han family, and the western regions can also be regarded as the old land of the Han family." Zhang Tianxi knew what Zhang Zuo was thinking: "my Zhang family has been exploring the western regions for many years. No one is more suitable to be a pioneer in exploring the West than my Zhang family, right?"
Zhang Zuo directly admitted: "people should show their value when they live. If they can repel the Han Army and prevent the Han army from invading again, it is naturally the best to keep the country. We should continue to fight for the throne. If... Things can't be done, the Han king can accept ran Min who is king and attached to him, and dare to reuse the generals of the Southern Dynasty, we can also be used by the Han king."
Zhang Tianxi said, "I've heard... The king of Han Dynasty said civil war about attacking Liang."
The two brothers are more or less out of their hearts and lungs to tell the truth. Liu Yan's Han state has shown the strength of dominating the world. It's best to try and continue to separate the regime. You can't show your ability on the battlefield and be a cool king. Can't you fight for a big man's general?
Zhang Zuo also said leisurely, "it is said that the imperial seal has long been in the hands of the king of Han Dynasty. It is Shi Jie who has not claimed the emperor for a long time. Tuoba Xianbei and Murong Xianbei... Of course, there is our Xiliang. It seems that the rumor is correct. The king of Han will claim the emperor only if he wants to wipe out the universe, otherwise he should have claimed the emperor long ago."
The situation is stronger than others. No matter how many people are unwilling or unwilling, they should also see the facts clearly after fighting. The two brothers originally tacitly understood that they would turn a blind eye to those aristocratic families in China as long as they did not go too far or stand out. In fact, they also gave some hints to the following families. Those aristocratic families stopped. Everyone wanted to show their value and ability, which was also a good thing for the two brothers to resist the invasion of the Han army.
Guzang is more than 200 li away from Jincheng on the plain map. It is basically a flat terrain all the way. It took only five days for the army to reach Guangwu county.
Both Jinxing county and Guangwu county are actually on the North Bank of the Yellow River, across the Yellow River from Jincheng. It is precisely because of this that the Liang army will assemble separately in the two counties. They are not afraid that the Han army not far away will kill them when they assemble.
Zhang Zuo was not idle after he arrived at the land. He asked Zhang Tianxi to arrange follow-up in the camp. He took a team of his own soldiers to the Bank of the Yellow River to watch the situation in Jincheng from a distance.
The season has entered the middle of spring. However, due to the cold weather in recent years, the temperature is actually lower. People can really feel cool when they stay on the Bank of the Yellow River and are blown by the humid wind of the river.
"How long has the Han army attacked the water canal?" Zhang Zuo's eyesight was pretty good. He saw the fighting over there from a distance and asked, "what's the situation in the other directions?"
Song Qin was the principal when the Liang army of Guangwu County assembled. Of course, he wanted to answer questions and solve doubts for Zhang Zuo and report respectfully: "the two armies have been competing for the canal for four days. The Han Army surprisingly did not mobilize large equipment such as stone catapults to bombard. It sent a small team of people and horses to keep close to the hand to hand fight. At the end, he thought that the Han General forced Zhang Taishou to send troops to fight in order to consume the garrison."
The rest of Jincheng? The Han Army has been cleaning up the Acropolis and once played the game of playing hamsters with Liang Jun.
Zhang Zuo asked, "did the Han Army try to build a river bridge?"
Speaking of this, song Qin had to frown
