The war report of Li Shu's war with the Sichuan army in fantiao County soon spread to Shangjing, Fengguo.
After reading the war report, Tang Yin was furious and evaluated Li Shu in four words: fool and fool.
Zhenjun's strength is to fight encounter warfare and surprise warfare, while the strength of Sichuan army is positional warfare and regimental battle. Li Shu fights the director of Sichuan army with his own shortcomings. What's it like to be not a fool or a fool?
Of course, what makes Tang Yin angry is not the more than 100000 soldiers of Zhenjun who were killed and injured. No matter how many people were killed in the battle, Zhenren will not feel distressed. What he distresses is the armaments lost by Zhenjun in this war. Those who are supported by Fengguo are regarded as the investment of Fengguo.
After this war, Li Shu's strength was greatly weakened. If the Sichuan army can gather forces to attack in a short time, Li Shu's strength will be difficult to survive, and the armaments, money and food provided by the wind country to them will be completely lost.
Another important point is that Tang Yin doesn't want Li Shu's influence to be wiped out by the Sichuan army. The existence of Li Shu's influence can greatly contain the state of Sichuan and consume the national strength of the state of Sichuan, which is too beneficial to the wind country.
After receiving the war report from Zhendi, Tang Yin immediately summoned the Minister of civil and military affairs of the wind country to discuss how to make Li Shu force survive this difficulty and continue to survive in Zhendi.
The ministers of the wind kingdom were not optimistic about the situation in Zhendi. In the first war in the west plain, the Zhen army fought too badly, and its troops were reduced by more than half, while the Sichuan army could at least assemble the troops of the two legions. The strength of the two sides was very different. If the Sichuan court sent reinforcements at this time, the gap between the two sides would be widened. It was no longer relying on the wind kingdom to support some armaments Money and food can make up for it.
Xiao MuQing frowned and said anxiously, "king, judging from the current situation, I'm afraid that no matter how much arms and money we give to Li Shu now, it won't help."
Tang Yin asked, "MuQing, in your opinion?"
Xiao MuQing said positively, "send troops directly to reinforce!" He looked at the crowd, Continue: "Now Li Shu's soldiers are less than 100000, and there are at least two regiments of the Sichuan army in fantiao county and Jinggu County close to him. If the Sichuan army attacks at this time, Zhenren will be defeated. If you want Zhenren to withstand the attack of the Sichuan army, China can only send troops to reinforce directly. Of course, China's reinforcements can dress up as Zhenren first. In this way, we can also avoid contact with the state of Sichuan Direct hostility. "
Tang Yin rubbed her chin and remained silent. Qiu Zhen shook his head and said, "we Fengren are not Zhen people after all. Even if we change our clothes, we can still be recognized by the people of Sichuan at a glance. Letting the people of Sichuan know that our country sends troops to reinforce Li Shu's forces is undoubtedly equivalent to declaring war on the country of Sichuan. At that time, I'm afraid our country will start an all-round war with the country of Sichuan. This... Is not a wise move!"
What Qiu Zhen said is also Tang Yin's concern. At present, Fengguo is not ready for an all-round war with Sichuan. If it goes to war in a hurry, it is likely to follow a disastrous defeat.
The defeat of the last time led to the annihilation of Feiyu army. The lessons of the past are still vivid. Tang Yin dare not take such a risk again.
He nodded again and again, indicating that Qiu Zhen was right. It was the next policy to send troops to Zhendi directly. Xiao MuQing shook his head and said, "if China can't send troops directly for assistance, it will appear that Li Shu's party will die!"
Tang Yin raised her hand, gently tapped her forehead and murmured, "is there no other good plan except to send troops directly for assistance?"
Liang Qi's eyes turned and then said, "since it's impossible to send troops, our country can send generals."
"Oh? Tell me more." Tang Yin's eyes lit up when he heard the speech.
Liang Qi said: "the biggest problem facing Li Shu's forces now is not the lack of soldiers and generals, but the lack of commanders who can command the three armed forces and plan strategies. If China can send a commander to Zhendi to take over Li Shu's generals and use Zhenren's combat power, it may not be able to win even in the face of the strong attack of the two armies of Sichuan."
Tang Yin nodded his head and thought Liang Qi's words were on the point. Now the commander of the rebel army is Li Shu, but can he fight? Perhaps he has a very high political talent and is very good at winning people's hearts and boosting morale, but his ability to fight a war is too general. Through the battle of Wangxi plain, it can be seen that Li Shu has no strategic vision and does not even have the self-knowledge of a qualified commander. Even if Zhen Ren is the division of supporting tigers and wolves, he can't fight a beautiful battle under the leadership of such a person.
He said, "what Liang Qi said is reasonable, but which general should we send to Zhendi to take over Zhenjun?"
Seeing Tang Yin looking at himself eagerly, Liang Qi quickly lowered his head and didn't say a word. Seeing this, Tang Yin understood that Liang Qi was unwilling to go to Zhendi.
He shook his head secretly. Since Liang Qi didn't want to go, he couldn't force it. Tang Yin turned his eyes and looked at Xiao MuQing and Ziying generals. No matter who he looks at, the other party either hangs his head or turns his eyes away from him.
Oh! Everyone really has a tacit understanding. They are unwilling to go to Zhendi. Tang Yin smiled bitterly in her heart.
In fact, we can't blame the marshals of the Feng army for retreating. First of all, this battle is not easy to fight. We should win more with less and fight stronger with less. It is not so easy to fight. If it is not for our own sake, no one is willing to fight such a war.
Secondly, and most importantly, how can the military power of the rebels be taken over so easily? Feng Guo has already sent to supervise the army, and he is still a veteran and experienced veteran like Tao Yuanfeng, but does anyone listen to his opinion? If Zhen people are willing to listen, they will not be expected to fight in the west plain. If they go by themselves, what's the significance if they are cooled aside by Zhen people like Tao Yuanfeng?
All the generals were silent and avoided their eyes. Tang Yin was angry and sighed. Of course, he could understand the people's thoughts. After meditating for a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "well, since you don't want to take this trip, let me go!"
Hearing this, the faces of all the people present changed at the same time, and almost said in one voice: "king, don't!"
Tang Yin waved his hand and said, "Zhen people are rebellious. If you go ahead, let alone take over the military power of the rebels, I'm afraid Li Shu may not listen to and adopt even his suggestions, but it's different if I go in person. Li Shu will still be a little afraid."
"But your majesty, this trip is dangerous!" The crowd leaned forward involuntarily and said nervously.
"It's not dangerous yet. I'm just worried. I may not be able to lead Zhenren to win the Sichuan army, so..." Tang Yin turned to Qingyu with a smile and said, "general Qingyu will go with me!"
Anyway, the flying feather army has been wiped out in Sichuan. Now it is being reconstituted. It will take a long time. Qingyu is also a light commander who has nothing to do in China. Of course, Tang Yin didn't mean to say anything later.
Tang Yin took the initiative to invite, but Qingyu really couldn't make a decision. After holding it for a long time, he said reluctantly, "since the king has orders, it's just that he will obey them."
Since the last lesson, Qingyu is unwilling to fight with Tang Yin in his heart. Tang Yin is good at fighting, and it is true that he is good at strange moves, but strange moves often coexist with risks, which is not in line with Qingyu's calm style, but Tang Yin is the king. If there is a dispute, Qingyu can only obey Tang Yin. The destruction of the whole army of Feiyu is a bloody example.
Hearing that Qingyu agreed reluctantly, Tang Yin also knew that he was still angry with himself and said with an embarrassed smile: "Qingyu, I listen to you this time when I go to Zhendi. You are the main and I am the auxiliary..."
Before he finished, Qingyu could not wait to bend over and bow his hands and say, "Your Majesty is wise!"
Tang Yin blinked. Qingyu didn't seem to be praising himself.
After the first World War in Wangxi plain, the Zhenren rebellion led by Li Shu was in danger. As a last resort, Tang Yin had to go to Bainan County in Zhenxi in person to solve the urgent needs of the rebels.
Tang Yin has a lot of self-knowledge and knows his half weight. He is probably no better than Li Shu in leading the army to fight. Therefore, he is very smart to take Qingyu, the talented commander. With Qingyu, he believes that even if there are only 70000 or 80000 people left in Zhenjun, he can resist 200000 Sichuan troops.
Worried about being recognized by the Sichuan army, Tang Yin didn't bring too many guards. Less than 500 people followed him to Zhendi, mainly the elite of hidden arrows, heavenly eyes and underground nets.
In order to hide their identity, they also deliberately put on casual clothes and dressed up as a caravan.
Before departure, Feng Guo sent a letter to Li Shu. The letter did not mention that Tang Yin would go to Zhendi, but said to send Qingyu to assist Zhenjun and ask Li Shu to arrange people to meet 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 and go to the junction of FengChuan. There was nothing to say all the way. After arriving at the agreed place, he smoothly connected with the Zhen people waiting there.
Li Shu still attaches great importance to Qingyu's arrival and specially sends his general Meng Xiong to lead 2000 elite people to meet him. Meng Xiong is a strong general among the rebels. He is as famous as Raymond. They are all famous for their great strength and bravery.
When Meng Xiong saw Qingyu, he was shocked. He had never seen such a beautiful man. His skin was white, soft and weak. He was even more beautiful than a woman.
When he came, he had been instructed by Li Shu. Meng Xiong was naturally polite and respectful to Qingyu. In addition, Qingyu was long and delicate. Meng Xiong took good care of him on the way.
Now Zhendi is relatively peaceful, at least for the rebels. The Sichuan army stationed in Zhendi has long been afraid of being beaten by the rebels. Most of them are huddled in the town and dare not go out easily. Meng Xiong escorts Tang Yin and his party. As long as they don't go to the city for accommodation, they won't meet the Sichuan army.
From the border of FengChuan to Bainan County in Zhenxi, they traveled day and night at full speed, still walking for more than half a month.
