Whether to let the Liaoyang army in Shoucheng leave or not is a question that needs to be decided for Ye Mingsheng!
There are advantages to letting it go, and there are advantages to not letting it go. Each has advantages and disadvantages!
Song Wenhui still has 10,000 soldiers and horses in Dongning Mansion, and Xing Dalin, who withdrew, brought back several thousand people. If Ye Mingsheng puts back the 10,000 soldiers and horses in Shoucheng, then Song Wenhui will join them , it is almost possible to produce a force of 30,000 people.
Thirty thousand soldiers and horses are not too many, but not too many. With these thirty thousand soldiers and horses relying on Song Wenhui's prestige in Liaoyang for more than ten years, it is not impossible for Song Wenhui to defend Dongning Mansion, even if he cannot hold Dongning Mansion. , it is estimated that it can also delay the military force for a period of time.
This is very beneficial to Ye Mingsheng. During this period of time, he can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, watching the Zhenwu Army and Song Wenhui fight to the death, while he can integrate the Xuantu Mansion on the other side. resources, waiting for the best time to send troops to intervene in the war!
However, the plan is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. Letting these 10,000 troops return to Dongning Mansion is risky for Ye Mingsheng. Once Song Wenhui fails to resist, or like this time, they have internal problems. As a result, the Liaoyang Army collapsed at the first touch, and these 10,000 troops would be swallowed up by the Zhenwu Army, increasing their strength...
Originally, the Zhenwu Army swallowed up the main force of the Liaoyang Army, and was assisted by the Shiwei people. In addition, they probably arranged the Khitan people as a backup for Ye Mingsheng. No matter the strength or the situation, the one with the upper hand would undoubtedly have the upper hand. If this was obtained With these ten thousand soldiers and horses, the strength gap between the two sides will become wider and wider, and the situation Ye Mingsheng will face will also be very difficult.
And if they don't let go, Ye Mingsheng can take action when they withdraw from Shoucheng. At that time, the Liaoyang army was in panic and fled in panic. Ye Mingsheng's strength was nearly four times theirs. Ye Mingsheng would not fail to win. The truth!
Although the current military strength is already the financial limit of Fengzhou, it is not difficult to raise 10,000 more troops and horses as long as the Xuantu Mansion is captured.
Of course, once Ye Mingsheng does this, Song Wenhui will undoubtedly lose. Without Song Wenhui as a shield, Ye Mingsheng will soon face the Zhenwu Army head-on!
Thinking about it carefully, Ye Mingsheng discovered that the key to the matter was whether Song Wenhui could resist it!
If Song Wenhui can resist, then Ye Mingsheng will definitely let him be a shield first, but if Song Wenhui cannot resist, Ye Mingsheng will have to rely on himself to face Zhenwu Army!
After thinking about this issue carefully, Ye Mingsheng felt that he should not act arbitrarily, but should listen to everyone's opinions first and then make plans...
Ye Mingsheng, who had an idea, called He Jingyun, Gu Sansi, Yuan Song and other military generals to discuss together.
After Huo San reported the current situation to everyone, Lin Huaiwu stood up and reported to Ye Mingsheng:
"Sir, the general feels that the Liaoyang Army was rebelled by the Shiwei people this time and was caught off guard before suffering such a defeat. The Liaoyang Army's heritage is still there, so I think we should let these 10,000 troops go and return to Dongning Mansion. With these 10,000 troops assisting the Liaoyang Army, they will definitely be able to stop the Zhenwu Army."
Everyone seems to be optimistic that Song Wenhui can defend Dongning Mansion, so they all agree with Lin Huaiwu's views. Only a few people are silent, including Ye Mingsheng's chief military advisor Gu Sansi. Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng is about to turn his attention to On him.
Feeling Ye Mingsheng's gaze, Gu Sansi naturally knew what Ye Mingsheng meant. He pondered for a moment and stood up and said:
"My lord, it is difficult for me to judge from the current information only what is true and false about Song Wenhui, but I know someone who will definitely understand..."
At the end, Gu Sansi gave Ye Mingsheng a meaningful look. Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he instantly understood what Gu Sansi meant.
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng understood what he meant, Gu Sansi raised two fingers and said:
"Whether it is fighting or releasing, it takes time. The Liaoyang Army in Shoucheng will get the order to retreat as soon as tomorrow. The mobilization of 10,000 troops and horses is not a small matter. It must be prepared no matter what. Therefore, the Liaoyang Army is likely to withdraw the day after tomorrow. Shoujo!"
"If they arrive before the Liaoyang army evacuates, it means that Song Wenhui is likely to die, and vice versa!"
"It makes sense, then let's do it!"
Ye Mingsheng nodded and felt that what Gu Sansi said was very reasonable. Those people were the most realistic. Now let's see if those people will vote with their feet.
Seeing Ye Mingsheng and Gu Sansi playing riddles here, all the generals were confused. They didn't know who they were in Gu Sansi's mouth. Only He Jingyun, who was exposed to a higher level, moved slightly, as if he had thought of it. What···············
Lin Huaiwu, who had always regarded himself as Ye Mingsheng's "direct confidant", could not suppress his curiosity and asked Ye Mingsheng:
"Sir, who are they that Mr. Gu is talking about?"
"How come they have such great powers and are able to know the reality of the Liaoyang army?"
Seeing Lin Huaiwu speak, everyone who was confused did not speak in agreement, but they all looked at Ye Mingsheng expectantly.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Ye Mingsheng felt a little helpless. It was not that he wanted to hide it deliberately, but that the matter had not been revealed yet. Now that he had said it, if the matter did not work out in the end, it would not only be a blow to morale, but also to Ye Mingsheng. His prestige in front of his subordinates will also be damaged, so Ye Mingsheng wants to be more cautious.
But I really didn’t expect that Lin Huaiwu, a stupid young man, had broken through this layer of window paper. Now, if Ye Mingsheng didn’t say anything, his subordinates would definitely understand that Ye Mingsheng didn’t trust them... ········
So now Ye Mingsheng needs to reveal some information appropriately, not only to eliminate everyone's doubts, but also to stabilize the morale of the military.
"Our army has been in contact with some famous families in Liaoyang recently. They have deep roots in Liaoyang and can bring some help to our army!" Under the gaze of everyone, Ye Mingsheng replied in a deep voice:
Although Ye Mingsheng's words were a bit vague and he did not give a specific name, when the generals present heard the news, most of them had a look of surprise on their faces. Because Ye Mingsheng came from a poor family, so his subordinates Most of these subordinates also came from poor families. Only He Jingyun came from the noble family of Duke Shen, but he was also a concubine and his status was not high.
In this era of class consolidation and involution, the children of poor families can be said to love and hate the aristocratic families. What they hate is that the children of the aristocratic families occupy their passage to the upper class and occupy most of the resources in the world, such as education. resources, sexual resources, etc.
However, in their hearts, everyone longs to be a member of a noble family. Even if they cannot be born into a noble family, they still hope to be able to marry the daughter of a noble family and enjoy the glory of the noble family, so as to shine on the lintel of the family. A fierce and humble boy may lick him more happily behind his back.
Therefore, it is a good thing for everyone to be able to communicate with these powerful people. It at least proves that Fengzhoujun, a start-up company, has a strong development momentum. It has big customers, big investors, and the company in the hands of big guys. The original stock still has great potential. If you follow Ye Mingsheng, you will have meat to eat...
After accepting a few compliments from everyone, Ye Mingsheng announced that everyone should go back to prepare for the battle. After everyone left, Ye Mingsheng, who was left alone in the tent, rubbed his tired temples and couldn't bear it. I can't help but sigh, Gu Sansi's brain is indeed very useful.
As Song Wenhui's biggest supporters among the Liaoyang gentry clan, the Yun family participated in all aspects of Song Wenhui's regime in Liaoyang. There is no doubt that if at this time, who knows Song Wenhui's situation best, then the Yun family will definitely be one, and like This kind of wealthy family that has existed for hundreds of years is the smartest and most practical.
When you are good, they will lick you in various ways. When you are not good, they will abandon you as quickly as possible and start looking for a new partner.
The Liaoyang Army had not suffered the current big defeat, but had suffered a small defeat in Posuo Mansion and showed its decline. The Yun family's contact with the Fengzhou Army had changed from a clear refusal before to an ambiguous one. Although the relationship between the two sides was still There has been no progress, but communication is still relatively smooth.
Now that Song Wenhui has suffered such a big fall, the Yun family will naturally evaluate whether to hang Song Wenhui from the tree!
Ye Mingsheng believes that the envoy from the Yun family will definitely come to see him. It is just a matter of time. The earlier the envoy comes, the worse Song Wenhui's current situation is...
"Sir, General Lin has something to ask for!" Just when Ye Mingsheng was about to take a nap and rest, Ye Dong walked into the camp and reported to Ye Mingsheng:
Upon hearing that Lin Huaiwu wanted to see him, Ye Mingsheng probably guessed his purpose, and he pondered for a while and said:
"Go out and tell him I'm busy and ask him to come back later!"
"Yes!" Ye Dong nodded and took the order.
After a while, Ye Dong came back and said:
"General Lin didn't leave. He stood outside and said he would wait for the Lord."
Ye Mingsheng sneered when he heard this. Lin Huaiwu knew a little bit about things, and then ordered:
"Then let him stand outside for half an hour, and then bring him in..."
"Understood!"
After explaining, Ye Mingsheng leaned on the chair and wanted to take a nap. He has not been able to sleep well at night these days. He has always been concerned about what will happen in Changqing Mansion and how he should deal with Shou. Now that everything about the city problem has been settled and a rough solution has been found, the relaxed Ye Mingsheng naturally wants to catch up on some sleep.
Just when Ye Mingsheng was sleeping very sweetly, Lin Huaiwu outside the tent could be said to be frightened and uneasy. During this period, he was promoted by Ye Mingsheng. It can be said that he was in high spirits during happy events, and he was also somewhat complacent. Now, I am not as cautious as usual.
This is why during the meeting in the camp just now, I asked Ye Mingsheng questions even though I knew that Ye Mingsheng might not want to talk.
To be honest, as soon as he said those words, Lin Huaiwu regretted it and wished he could slap himself in the face. However, due to the face of so many people present at that time, he could only hold on. After the meeting, Lin Huaiwu felt more and more thoughtful in his heart. The less practical he was, so he came to Ye Mingsheng to apologize...
But the only thing that made Lin Huaiwu feel lucky was that Ye Dongchuan's words just now meant that Ye Mingsheng didn't want to see him now, but he was still willing to see him, which meant that the matter could still be undone.
After standing in the wind for half an hour, Lin Huaiwu was led into the camp by Ye Dong. When he saw Ye Mingsheng, Lin Huaiwu saluted and said with great shame:
"My lord, I was wrong!"
"Can you, General Lin, be wrong?" Ye Mingsheng, who had just woken up, leaned lazily on his chair and said lightly:
Upon hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, Lin Huaiwu undoubtedly lowered his head and confessed to Ye Mingsheng:
"I made a humble remark and disturbed your master's arrangements. I hope you will punish me!"
Looking at Lin Huaiwu, who had a fairly upright attitude, Ye Mingsheng didn't say anything but just looked at him quietly.
Lin Huaiwu was getting more and more upset when Ye Mingsheng saw him. He didn't know how Ye Mingsheng would deal with him. Of course, Lin Huaiwu was confident in his personal safety. After all, he had been with Ye Mingsheng for so long.
Lin Huaiwu knew Ye Mingsheng's behavior very well. Although his boss paid attention to military rules and disciplines and was not merciless in killing people, he was still broad-minded and definitely not a petty person. The negligence on the part can lead to the death of an important minister...
Just when Lin Huaiwu looked highly nervous under Ye Mingsheng's gaze, Ye Mingsheng spoke again:
"To be a general, you need to be down-to-earth, one step at a time, and you cannot be complacent when you achieve anything. I have entrusted tens of thousands of brothers to you. How could you be so rash? Didn't you think before you spoke?"
After hearing Ye Mingsheng's criticism, Lin Huaiwu felt relieved and said with shame:
"My lord, what you have taught me is this! It is the general who has failed to live up to my lord's expectations and let you down!"
"It doesn't matter if you disappoint me. What you have to do is not to disappoint yourself. Huaiwu, you have already reached the position of a sixth-grade general at a young age. Your future is bright when you command tens of thousands of troops. Do you know how many people are there secretly?" Are you envious and jealous of you?"
"At times like this, you must be strict with yourself and don't give others the chance to catch you. If your future is ruined because of a little negligence, Huaiwu, do you think it's a pity? Do you regret it?" Ye Mingsheng pretended. He said heartbrokenly:
After hearing Ye Mingsheng's earnest instruction, Lin Huaiwu realized his situation. A thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his face turned pale. After a long time, he said very sincerely:
"Everything I have now is given by adults. Without your promotion and cultivation, I might have died in that smelly ditch now. As long as I can serve you, I will never feel pity or regret!"
