Li Shu's battle report of the first battle with the Sichuan army in fantiao County soon spread to Shangjing, Fengguo.
After reading the war report, Tang Yin was very angry and commented on Li Shu in four words: stupid and stupid.
The strong points of the Zhen army are encounter and surprise battles, while the Sichuan army's strengths are positional warfare and regimental battle. Li Shu's strong points in fighting against the Sichuan army's strong points are not stupid and stupid?
Of course, it was not the more than 100000 Zhenjun soldiers who were killed and wounded that made Tang Yin angry. No matter how many people were killed in the battle, he would not feel distressed. What he was distressed about was the armament lost by the Zhen army in the war. Those were all the Fengguo's investments in supporting Zhenren.
After this war, Li Shu's strength was greatly damaged. If the Sichuan army could gather forces to attack in a short time, it would be difficult for Li Shu's force to survive. Then the armaments, money and food provided by Fengguo to them would be totally wiped out.
There is also a very important point. Tang Yin does not want Li Shu's influence to be annihilated by the Sichuan army. The existence of Li Shu's force can greatly restrain the state of Sichuan and consume its national strength. This is very beneficial to the wind country.
After receiving the report of the battle in Zhendi, Tang Yin immediately summoned the civil and military ministers of Fengguo to discuss how to let Li Shu's forces survive in Zhendi.
The ministers of Fengguo were not optimistic about the situation in Zhendi. Looking forward to the battle in the western plain, the Zhen army had a terrible battle, and the troops were reduced by half. However, the Sichuan army could still muster at least two regiments. The strength of the two sides was greatly different. If the Sichuan government sent reinforcements at this time, the gap between the two sides would be widened. It is not relying on the Fengguo to support some armaments and money Grain will make up for it.
Xiao MuQing frowned and said anxiously, "king, judging from the current situation, no matter how much armament and how much money we are helping Li Shu, I'm afraid it will not help."
Tang Yin asked, "Mu Qing, what do you think?"
Xiao MuQing said in a positive tone: "send troops directly for reinforcement!" He looked at the people present and continued: "now Li Shu's soldiers will be less than 100000, and there are at least two regiments in the Sichuan army of fantiao county and Jinggu County. If the Sichuan army attacks at this time, Zhenren will surely lose. If we want Zhenren to withstand the Sichuan army's attack, we can only send troops directly to reinforce them. Of course, our reinforcements can first dress up as Zhenren In this way, we can avoid direct hostility with Sichuan. "
Tang Yin rubbed his chin and was silent. Qiu Zhen shook his head and said, "we Fengren are not virtuous people after all. Even if we change our clothes, we can still be recognized by Sichuan people. To let the people of Sichuan know that China's sending troops to reinforce Li Shu's forces is no doubt equivalent to declaring war on Sichuan. At that time, I am afraid that China will launch a full-scale war with Sichuan, which is not a wise move! "
What Qiu Zhen said was also Tang Yin's worry. Now that Fengguo is not ready to engage in a full-scale war with Sichuan, it is likely that Fengguo will follow a disastrous defeat.
The defeat of the last time led to the total annihilation of the Feiyu army. The lessons learned from the past can still be seen clearly. Tang Yin did not dare to take such risks again.
He nodded repeatedly, indicating that Qiu Zhen was right. It was the next policy to send troops directly to Zhendi. Xiao MuQing shook his head and said, "if our country can't send troops to aid directly, it seems that Li Shu's party will die."
Tang Yin raised his hand, gently tapped his forehead, and murmured, "is there no other good policy except direct military assistance?"
Liang Qi turned his eyes and said, "since sending troops is not good, our country can send generals."
"Oh? Tell me more about it. " When Tang Yin heard the speech, his eyes suddenly brightened.
Liang Qi said: "the biggest problem that Li Shu's forces are facing now is not the lack of short-term generals, but the lack of commanders who can command the three armies and devise strategies. If China can send a commander to Zhendi to take over the generals under Li Shu's command, he may not be able to win even in the face of strong attacks from the two regiments of Sichuan."
Tang Yin nodded his head and felt that Liang Qi was on the point. Now the commander in chief of the rebels is Li Shu, but can he fight? Maybe he has a high political talent and can win over the hearts of the people and boost their morale, but his ability to organize troops and fight wars is too ordinary. From the battle of Wang Xi plain, we can see that Li Shu has no strategic vision, and even does not have the self-knowledge of a qualified commander. Even if Zhen Ren is the division of supporting tigers and wolves, he will not be able to fight a beautiful battle.
He said, "what Liang Qi said is reasonable, but which general should we send to Zhendi to take over the Zhen army?"
Seeing Tang Yin looking at himself eagerly, Liang Qi lowered his head in a hurry and didn't say a word. Seeing this, Tang Yin understood that Liang Qi was unwilling to go to Zhendi.
He shook his head in secret. Since Liang Qi didn't want to go, he couldn't force him. Tang Yin turned his eyes and looked at the generals Xiao MuQing and Ziying. No matter who he looks at, the other party either droops his head or turns his eyes away from him.
Oh! We really have a tacit understanding that they are not willing to go to Zhendi. Tang Yin smiles bitterly in his heart.
In fact, we can't blame the Fengjun generals for retreating. First of all, this battle is not easy to fight. If we want to win more with less and fight with the weak, it is not so easy to fight. If it is not for our share, no one is willing to fight such a battle.Secondly, and most importantly, how can the rebel military power be so easy to take over? Feng Guo has already sent his troops to supervise the army, and he is still a veteran veteran with experience like Tao Yuanfeng. But is his opinion listened to? If Zhen people are willing to listen, they won't be able to hope for the battle in the west plain. What's the significance of going there by themselves, if they're cold to one side like Tao Yuanfeng?
Tang Yin was angry and sighed. Of course, he could understand the people's thoughts. After pondering for a long time, he said slowly, "well, since you all don't want to go this way, let me go!"
Hearing this, the faces of all the people present were the same. They almost said with one voice: "the king can't!"
Tang Yin waved his hand and said, "if you go ahead, don't say you can't take over the rebel's military power. I'm afraid that even Li Shu will not listen to his advice and accept it. But if I go there in person, it will be different. Li Shu will still be a bit afraid."
"But your majesty, this trip is dangerous." They leaned forward involuntarily and said nervously.
"It's not dangerous yet. I'm just worried that I may not be able to lead the Zhen people to win the Sichuan army, so" Tang Yin turned his head and looked at Qingyu with a smile and said, "general Qingyu will go with me."
In any case, the Feiyu army has been wiped out in Sichuan, and now it is being reorganized. It will take a long time for Qingyu to stay in China. He is also a barefoot commander who has nothing to do but stay at home. Of course, Tang Yin didn't mean to say anything.
Tang Yin took the initiative to invite him, but Qingyu was not good enough to refuse. After holding back for a long time, he said, "since the king has orders, I will obey them."
Since the last lesson, Qingyu is not willing to fight with Tang Yin in his heart. It is true that Tang Yin is good at making strange moves in war, but they often coexist with risks. This is not in line with Qingyu's calm style. However, Tang Yin is a king. If there is a dispute, Qingyu still has to obey Tang Yin. The total annihilation of the Feiyu army is a bloody example.
Hearing that Qingyu agreed very reluctantly, Tang Yin also knew that he was still angry with himself. He said with a dry smile: "Qingyu, I will listen to you when I go to Zhendi this time. You are the main one and I am the auxiliary one."
before he finished his words, Qingyu could not wait to bow down and bow his hands and say, "King Yingming!"
Tang Yin blinked. Qingyu didn't seem to be praising himself.
After the battle of Wangxi plain, the Zhenren rebellion led by Li Shu was in danger. As a result, Tang Yin had to go to Bainan County in Zhenxi to relieve the urgent needs of the rebels.
Tang Yin is quite self-conscious. He is very aware of his own half a dozen. He is probably no better than Li Shu in leading the army to fight. Therefore, he is very clever in pulling up the talented commander-in-chief of Qingyu. He believes that even if there are only 70000 or 80000 soldiers left in the Zhenjun Army, he can resist 200000 Sichuan troops.
Worried about being recognized by the Sichuan army, Tang Yin didn't take too many guards with him. There were less than 500 people who went with him to Zhendi. Among them, the elite were mainly dark arrow, sky eye and earth net.
In order to hide their identity, they also changed into casual clothes and dressed up as caravans.
Before the departure, Fengguo sent a letter to Li Shu. The letter did not mention that Tang Yin would go to Zhendi. He only said that he would send Qingyu to assist the Zhenjun army and let Li Shu arrange people to meet him at the FengChuan border.
To make a long story short, Tang Yin entrusted the affairs of the imperial court to Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji. He took Qingyu and his party to leave Shangjing for FengChuan. No words all the way, after arriving at the appointed place, he smoothly took over with the Zhen people waiting there.
Li Shu still attached great importance to the arrival of Qingyu, and specially sent Meng Xiong, a general under his command, to take over 2000 elite men. Meng Xiong is a fierce general among the rebels. He is as famous as Raymond. Both of them are famous for their great strength and fighting bravery.
When Meng Xiong saw Qingyu, he was astonished. He had never seen such a beautiful man. His skin was white, soft and weak. He was even more delicate than a woman.
When he came, he had already got Li Shu's advice. Meng Xiong was naturally polite and respectful to Qingyu. In addition, Qingyu was very delicate. On the way, Meng Xiong took good care of him.
At present, Zhendi is still relatively peaceful, at least for the rebels. The Sichuan army stationed in Zhendi has long been frightened by the rebels. Most of them huddle in the town and dare not go out easily. Meng Xiong escorts Tang Yin and his party. As long as they do not go to the city for accommodation, they will not meet the Sichuan army.
From the border of FengChuan to Bainan County in the west of Zhenxi, they traveled day and night at full speed, still walking for half a month.
