"The elite of the elite!" Yang Zaixing jumped up, "I'm fighting the elite!"

Zhang Jiefu continued to ask: "How does Hezha Meng'an compare to the soldiers and horses of Jin Wushu?"

"Soldiers in Hezha Meng'an will regularly transfer part of their defense from Yanjing and Liaoyang. This is a military system, and they will also train at ordinary times."

"Wanyan Yinshu is comparable to the soldiers and horses before it, how does it compare?"

Wan Yanchang said: "It is unmatched in terms of military equipment, and the city of Shangjing is strong, so it is very difficult to attack the city. If Shangjing uses strong walls to clear the wilderness, you will not be able to stay for long."

Wan Yanchang is actually very strategic in war, and he is also very good at politics.

But he has one of his greatest weaknesses: timidity!

Wan Yanchang in history became a pro-Song faction because he lost to Zhang Rong and was cast out of the shadow in World War I. Even when Wu Shu wanted to get rid of him, he really fled to the Southern Song Dynasty.

This man has strategy but no guts.

"Unless you have a sharp weapon that can capture the city as soon as possible." Wan Yanchang continued, "I know you want to talk about heavy artillery, but with heavy artillery, there is no guarantee that you can take Shangjing quickly. Back then, Pucha Shijia slaves used heavy artillery to attack Dongsheng. The city is also guarded by Yu Yunwen, isn't it?"

"Besides, if I'm not wrong, your troops on the grasslands are mostly cavalry. After the heavy artillery smashes through the city wall, you need infantry, and infantry armor is used to attack."

Chapter 1406 Revenge for Wan Yanquan! (first update)

Zhang Jiefu and Yang Zaixing remained silent, what Wan Yanchang said was true, and the Song army's strength in Chuhe was mainly cavalry.

It is really impossible for cavalry to attack the city.

Even if the city wall is blown down, it is absolutely impossible to attack.

After all, those who can charge when mounted and can fight on foot when dismounted are only a small part.

Watching Zhang Jiefu and Yang Zaixing remain silent, Wan Yanchang knew that he had touched on their pain.

The corner of his mouth raised a deep smile at a 45-degree angle, as if to say: I know what to do, you ask me, you quickly ask me!ask me!

Zhang Jiefu said: "Your Excellency, do you have a clever plan?"

"Ah!" Wan Yanchang yelled in enjoyment, his whole body twitched, "Of course there are clever strategies."

"What's the best strategy?"

Wan Yanchang said: "There is no need for infantry, and there is no need to break the city. It is only necessary to quickly attack with cavalry, control the food supply of Shangjing City, and turn Shangjing into an isolated city."

Zhang Jiefu put down the teacup in his hand and glanced at Wan Yanchang, obviously he did not fully trust Wan Yanchang.

In other words, he was still doubting the identity of the person in front of him.

"You also said before that Huining Mansion has [-] elites, right?"

"Yes."

"In this case, if our army goes to Huining Mansion to cut off the grain road to Shangjing, will the [-] elites of Huining Mansion watch us cut off the grain road?" Zhang Jiefu asked calmly.

This is not a simple matter of cutting off food routes.

Once the number of participants in a matter increases and the region becomes wider, it becomes more complicated.

Cutting off the grain road is the ultimate goal. How to achieve this goal, the method and the hidden dangers in it need to be considered.

"Of course not, and let me tell you, Huining Mansion now has [-] troops stationed by itself, and Wanyan Zongmin's [-] soldiers and horses. Their strength should not be underestimated."

"You know this, and you still say you have a clever plan?" Zhang Jiefu sneered, and took out a dagger from his arms, and started to play with it himself.

The meaning of the threat has not been concealed in the slightest.

Wan Yanchang's heart trembled, and he immediately said: "If we know where the Jin Army's food and grass stockpiles are, can we catch them by surprise?"

Zhang Jiefu and Yang Zaixing looked at each other, and asked quietly, "You know?"

"Of course I know!"

"How can we believe that what you say is true or false?"

"One, you can send people to Shangjing to inquire about what I just said; two, if Wanyan Quan is really dead, you can immediately send troops to Shangjing, using Wanyan Quan's revenge as a reason to put pressure on Shangjing, Shangjing is not monolithic , many people are forced to submit to Wanyan Zonggan and his son, as long as you can win the military victory in Shangjing, it will immediately trigger the political crisis in Shangjing; If we don't attack, Wanyan Wushu is in Yanjing, he can't send troops to return to Huining Mansion, winter is coming, if there is no food, Huining Mansion will collapse soon, our army... the Song Army will win without a fight! "

Wan Yanchang spoke eloquently, as if to reassure Zhang Jiefu and Yang Zaixing, he continued: "If you are worried that what I said is false, and deliberately lure you to divide your troops to raid the granary, and then be defeated by the Jin army, you should worry too much, because the raid The granary does not need many soldiers and horses, you have heavy artillery, you can quickly break down the walls of the granary, and burn the granary before the arrival of reinforcements!"

Zhang Jiefu stood up and said: "You are tired from the journey, go down and have a good rest first, I will ask someone to arrange wine and meat for you, let us discuss this matter."

Wan Yanchang crossed his hands and withdrew.

Yang Zaixing said: "Brother Zhang, what clues can you see?"

"It is impossible to be sure that he is Wan Yanchang. It is possible that he was sent by Shangjing to lure us on purpose, but it is also possible that what he said is true."

"If it's all true, it's indeed an opportunity." Yang Zaixing said, "If our army can quickly burn down the granary in Huining Mansion, the enemy will be destroyed without attack!"

In this way, one of Wanyanchang's biggest advantages now is knowing the golden man's granary stronghold.

The granary is a standard configuration of ancient dynasties.

Since the founding of the Kingdom of Jin, it has not yet begun to transform into an imperial system, but it has already begun to build a granary in Huining Prefecture.

There is no other reason, because the winter in the Kingdom of Jin is cold and long, and the Jin people need granaries more than the Song people in the Central Plains.

Not to mention the Kingdom of Jin, in the Liao Kingdom back then, three granaries were set up just near Yanjing, and many granaries were set up in Liaoyang and Dading.

These granaries are walled and guarded, and the exact location is not known to just anyone.

Of course, if the Song army sent people to reconnaissance, they could still be reconnaissance, but reconnaissance also has the risk of being discovered, so as to scare the enemy away and let the enemy prepare in advance.

Now Wan Yanchang directly marked the address, which undoubtedly gave Song Jun the upper hand.

"First send people to Shangjing to inquire about information and confirm whether Shangjing has really undergone a coup."

At the end of October, the situation in Hebei became increasingly tense.

The scouts of the Jin people all vaguely detected that the number of soldiers dispatched by the Song army may be increasing, and the conflicts in various places are also rapidly intensifying.

However, the war is still under control. Except for Zhang Xian's attack on Yizhou and dispatched thousands of troops, the rest of the roads did not even exceed 1000 people.

And unity is cavalry.

As we all know, cavalry cannot fight large-scale positional warfare alone, unless it is on the grassland.

On October 26th, all the military newspapers were placed on Wushu's table. After reading it, he said: "Since only scattered cavalry were dispatched, it means that the Song army is still testing, and the Zhao officials want to pass. The military put pressure on Dajin to make a complete break between Shangjing and Yanjing, and once the time came, the Song Army would immediately raise troops to go north, but he didn't know that the internal problems of Dajin had been easily resolved by me."

"Your Highness, we still need to guard against Wanyan Liang, who is quite famous in Shangjing."

"That's just his disguise. Look at what he has done after he ascended the throne!" Wu Shu didn't take it seriously. The king will give them a proactive attack and kill the Song people by surprise! The dispatch is scheduled for the fifth day of next month!"

On October 27, a piece of urgent information from Yanjing was sent to Wende Hall.

Zhao Ning of Wende Hall, wearing a crimson gauze robe, was gathering with the chief executives.

"Wanyan Quan is actually dead!" Zhao Ning was quite surprised, "It seems that I still underestimated Jin Wushu, his methods are ruthless enough!"

Zhang Jun came out and said, "Since Wanyan Quan is dead, we will use Wanyan Quan's revenge as a reason to send troops to the north!"

Chapter 1407 The Royal Driver Conquers Yanyun (Second Change)

"How about the people going south now?"

Yu Yunwen came out and said: "At the border of Hebei East Road, Hebei West Road, and Jingdong Road, 22 counties have been arranged to set up checkpoints to accept the people of Yandi. .The specific number of people admitted has not yet been submitted.”

"You all perform your own duties, Yan Yun is determined to win this Northern Expedition, and I will go north in person tomorrow."

"Your Majesty's personal conquest, I'm afraid..." Lu Yihao hesitated to speak.

"Lu Xianggong wants to talk about the crown prince?"

"I really want to talk about this matter. Your Majesty will personally conquest, but the crown prince is still undecided."

"It's okay, I'm not going to come back."

"Old minister didn't mean that. I know what you mean, so you pack up and come with me."

"Yes!"

In this personal expedition, Zhao Ninglai hand-picked many civil servants to follow him.

In addition to Lu Yihao, a prime minister who had been a transit envoy in Hebei in the early years and was good at coordinating multiple logistics supplies, Zhang Jun and Fan Zhixu who were familiar with military affairs were also among them.

In addition, Zhao Yu, the fourth prince who always liked to fight, was also brought along.

Zhao Guan's personal conquest was very low-key. Early in the morning, before dawn, he hurried out of the city and arrived at the army camp dozens of miles away to the northwest.

At this time, the Imperial Guard Brigade was already waiting by the Yellow River, and the sky began to snow lightly.

Zhao Ning looked up at the front, feeling the chill.

The Northern Expedition finally started, and I had been preparing for this day for too long.

Numerous pictures from the past flashed in his mind, and Zhao Ning couldn't help feeling that he could only succeed this time.

After crossing the Yellow River, it was already dawn. Zhao Yu, who was riding in the same carriage as Zhao Ning, woke up from his sleep and asked, "Daddy, is Yue Shuai in Hebei?"

"In Hebei."

"Where's Marshal Han?"

"In Jingdong."

"Where's Shuai Wu?"

"Which Shuai Wu are you asking?"

"two."

"Wu Jie is in Yanmen Pass, Wu Lin is in Liaodong, and there is Li Gang in Liaodong."

Zhao Yu suddenly said: "Big brother has been fighting with the Jinren for so many years, it would be great if he was also on the northern line at this time. Presumably he also really wants to see Yan Yun being recovered from the Northern Expedition."

Zhao Ning said with a smile: "You don't have to feel sorry for him, he is living better in South China Sea now, it is more suitable for him there."

"Is there a chance I can visit him?"

"In the future, if you want, you can go." Zhao Ning said kindly.

Perhaps as this body got older, he became more easy-going on weekdays.

The failure to deal with the relationship with Zhao Chen before also made him rethink some problems.

In his previous life, he had never been a father and was busy with his career all day long.

Fortunately, he had a warm home since he was a child, and his parents gave him enough love.

In fact, the self in the previous life, from childhood to adulthood, also made many mistakes, and even many things that he insisted on going his own way, and in the end he had to ask his father to come forward to settle them.

Every time after the matter is dealt with, my father will comfort himself that it's okay, and when there is no setback in life, he will take it as a lesson.

His father's optimism about setbacks influenced his youth and had a great influence on his later work.

Only now did he realize, as a father, the inclusive love for his children.

At the beginning, I tried my best to work hard for a career, but my parents didn't really care. What they really cared about was their own health and happiness.

Now it was his turn. Looking at Zhao Yu in front of him, he patted Zhao Yu's head and said, "It is Daddy's greatest wish that you live happily."

"Daddy is the monarch of the people in the world. Daddy's happiest thing is that the people in the world are happy."

"Who taught you this?"

"It's Mr. Yuzhang."

The snow slowly fell, and the long team braved the wind and snow to move forward.

Along the way, Lu Yihao sent messengers from all walks of life to strictly demand the local officials, ordering the local officials to keep everything as usual, and they must not force the people to welcome them just because the holy driver arrived.

However, just after passing through Huazhou, an official still found a lot of group performers, falsely claiming that it was voluntary by the common people.

Zhao Ning asked Lu Yihao to dismiss the magistrate on the spot.

On the evening of October 29, the sky was getting darker.

The military barracks of the Shenwu Army in Zhending Mansion were brightly lit, and truckloads of grain and grass were transported in. The logistics officials had been busy for several days, and they kept recording with their ledgers all the time.

After the recording is completed, the accounting will start again.

Immediately, the people from the Military Governor's Mansion were asked to conduct spot checks, and the people from the Audit Court were required to verify the account books.

Throughout the process, multiple yamen are vertically involved.

Many people have not closed their eyes for several days.

Yue Fei was sitting in the attic, the candlelight was dancing on his face, he was looking at the map.

Xue Yan hastily opened the door and walked in, saying: "Yue Shuai, Shengjia has already set off, and the route has been fixed, go to Hejian Mansion."
