Chapter 154 - Counteroffensive on Guan Shan
"Counterattack the Guan Shan?" Be it Curved End, Zhao Zhe, Zhao Wu or even Wang Shu, they were all shocked!
"What is it? Is there a problem? " Zhao Chen said.
"Your Majesty, the true strength of women is great, they are invincible! Ever since the invasion of the female real, this humble subject has been thinking, we should hide for ten to twenty years, use ten to twenty years to develop a strong army, and then fight with the Nvzhen to the death! " Curved End said.
Curved End still thought to save his strength!
Historically, the Curved End had always insisted on "preserving strength". At that time, Zhang Jun had accepted Ren Chuanshan's orders and ordered the Curved End to send out troops. In the end, Zhang Jun could no longer tolerate it and killed the Curved End!
And now, he had actually said such a thing!
"How can This Emperor wait that long for ten to twenty years? If we have the chance, we can counterattack at any time! You all should think about it carefully. Is this an opportunity? " Zhao Chen said.
Zhao Zhe, Wang Shu and the others were all lost in thought. After a while, Wang Shu said, "Your Majesty, this is indeed an opportunity! Guan Shan is empty, we can really counterattack Guan Shan! It's just that female true strength is really powerful, we have to be prepared to pay a huge price! Also, Your Majesty, we have just experienced Zhe Keqiu's chaos, so our domestic people have not been settled yet.
Zhao Chen said: "The people of our country have not settled yet, of course I know this! I was trying to stabilize the human heart with a victory! If we can successfully launch a counterattack against the Guan Shan, and we have suffered a crushing defeat to the female true self, the uncertainty brought about by Zhe Keqiu's chaos will naturally disappear! Do you think so? "
Wang Shu was startled, and nodded: "Your Majesty is right! However, it was still good to win. If he lost, what should he do? If I fail, my heart will definitely be even more unsettled! "
Zhao Chen said: "So we have to carefully study the situation, carefully observe the situation, and then use the soldiers! First, we need to know if the Nvzhen is really going south, and secondly, we need to know how many soldiers and horses the Guan Shan has left if they go south! The third is to understand if we can defeat these soldiers and horses! "
Wang Shu pondered for a long time, then gently nodded!
Zhao Zhe continued: "Your Majesty, our Song Army has never won a battle with your Majesty! The last time General Wu Jie won, it was because he had the terrain advantage. At that time, General Wu Jie was mainly defending the female true body. "If I were to take the initiative to attack Female Genuine, I would truly be worried for her!"
Zhao Chen said: "Don't worry! Even if the Nvzhen is powerful, we need to use more troops! They have ten thousand people. We'll use a hundred thousand, but we don't believe that we can't beat them! The female barbarians are eyeing us covetously. We can't just stop fighting them just because they're powerful, can we? Now, if there really is an opportunity, then we must not give it up! "
After a long while, Zhao Zhe also nodded!
During this period of time, Curved End no longer said anything. Curved End knew that she had just pledged her allegiance to Zhao Chen, so she couldn't be considered Zhao Chen's trusted aide! She felt that Zhao Chen might not be able to listen to whatever he was saying!
In Zhao Chen's opinion, Curved End was an indecisive person! They said that the Curved End was a martial arts genius, but it was a pity that this martial arts genius did not have a general idea of the situation! If she waited for ten or twenty years, the true female disciple and the Emperor Kang would most likely fight for a victor. She had only developed her powers by hiding in the Middle Han Area and the Middle Han Area, and had never fought with any enemies. She had no battle experience, and even if she met the experienced armies of the true female disciples and the Emperor Kang, he would still not be her match! Therefore, she had to strike when the time was right, even if it was to increase her battle experience!
There was another reason why Zhao Chen wanted to seize this opportunity. He wanted to know whether his training method was truly effective! He wanted to see if his actions really worked!
Only through true war could all these be tested and their weaknesses discovered!
Therefore, he urgently hoped that this battle would happen!
Initially, Curved End wanted to directly head to the Middle Han Area through the Dazhang Pass to pay respects to Zhao Chen. However, since Zhao Chen was currently in the Dazhang Pass, he naturally could not leave the Dazhang Pass alone!
Curved End was depressed. He was originally a great general who held a hundred thousand strong army in her hands, but now he had nothing left! He only had the title of "Privy Envoys", and logically speaking, this Privy Envoys should be even more senior than the previous "Jing Road". But he had also heard that Zhao Chen had set up a military command post, and all the important military affairs at the border were sent to the military command post. Privy Council was only responsible for the complicated matters of food, supplies, weapons, etc. It was impossible for the Privy Council to control the border army!
"Forget it, I've been in the army for more than twenty years. It's time for me to rest!" I don't care how the king and Nvzhen fight, I don't care how the king and Emperor Kang fight! As long as I can live well! " Curved End secretly said.
He did not have any ambition to begin with, so when he was in Jingyuan City, he only thought of "protecting himself"! At this moment, he had lost all of his army and had lost all of his ambition. He only wanted to 'protect' himself!
"What is General Qu thinking?" Curved End was standing on top of the city wall, but at this time, a gentle voice came from behind!
Curved End anxiously turned around and was about to kneel down. Zhao Chen had already stepped forward to support him, and said: "No need to be so polite! Actually, there was no need to kneel in the Imperial Guard! "I am prepared to abolish kneeling in the entire army!"
Curved End was startled, and said: "How can that be?"
Zhao Chen said: "Why not? "It's fine if you train normally, but if you are in the middle of a war and you see your superior, you have to kneel and kowtow. Isn't this delaying the time, delaying the military situation, and even affecting the outcome?!"
The Curved End said, "But this will affect the prestige of His Majesty and the other officials!"
Zhao Chen laughed: "This majesty does not rely on kneeling down! If I can defeat the female true spirit, I naturally have endless prestige! "Shangguan Ru loves her soldiers, she loves her soldiers like her sons. Naturally, the soldiers will respect her as well. What does this have to do with kowtowing?"
Curved End frowned, he still could not accept it! He was a conservative man who had spent more than 20 years in the capital. In his opinion, everything that happened now was the best. Any change was unacceptable! But thinking that he no longer had much power, Curved End sighed and said no more.
"Is there anything wrong with General Qu?" Zhao Chen said.
"It's just that I'm not in a good mood after leaving my hometown!" Curved End said.
"Is it because General Qu lost his army?" Zhao Chen laughed.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" This humble subject absolutely dares not have such thoughts! " Curved End said.
"It doesn't matter if you think that way! If I were you, I wouldn't be happy! " Zhao Chen said.
The Curved End was silent, indicating his tacit agreement.
"Take over the position of Privy Envoys and do your job! In the future, I will still need you when we wage war in the north and in the south! "In the future, you will still have the chance to lead!" Zhao Chen laughed.
"This …" Curved End shook her head and did not say a word.
He did not believe what Zhao Chen had said, he felt that since he was already in this state, how could Zhao Chen possibly hand over the army to him!
Zhao Chen knew that this person was Yun Qinwu, to a certain extent, the number one person in the Western Army! Other than his lack of ambition, this person's ability was remarkable! His combat ability is probably not any weaker than Wu Jie's or Liu Qi's! In the future, he would definitely use him, so she had to first tell him not to be depressed!
Unfortunately, Curved End did not understand his good intentions and was only depressed!
Zhao Chen laughed, and did not say anymore!
On the second day, Zhao Chen left the Dazhang Pass and went down the mountain!
Very quickly, Zhao Chen arrived at the forbidden grounds!
The first thing Zhao Chen did was call Yue Fei over to discuss about how to fight back against the Guan Shan with Yue Fei!
"Your Majesty, this general thinks that the counteroffensive on the Guan Shan is feasible! The Nvzhen was not that scary. When I was in Hedong City, I led an army without any food or weapons. They even dared to fight against the Nvzhen! Right now, the Imperial Guards are much stronger than the Rebel Army, so why don't they dare to fight against them? " Yue Fei said.
"Very good, you can be considered the first one to unhesitatingly support the counterattack against the Guan Shan!" Zhao Chen was overjoyed.
"However, we need to understand Nvzhen's intentions! Only after we are certain that the Nvzhen will descend from the south will we be able to mobilize the people of the Guan Shan to counterattack! If the Nvzhen does not go south, once we go back and attack the Guan Shan, the female army from HeDong and Hebei will come, we will still not be their match! " Yue Fei said.
"You're right!" I still need you to do this! You can contact Wang Gui, Zhang Xian and the others in the east side of the river, and have them carefully watch the Nvzhen, and see if the Nvzhen really wants to attack Jiangnan! " Zhao Chen said.
"Alright!" Yue Fei nodded and agreed!
"We still need to discuss with Li Gang about how we should attack the Guan Shan! Also, I need to ask for Wu Jie's opinion! The war is extremely important, and we need to be extremely careful. Although we desire to counterattack the Guan Shan, we will not blindly use troops! " Zhao Chen said.
