Chapter 1272

The Emperor Zhao Xu did not wait too long. Several veteran generals and important officials who had walked out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood on the battlefield were gathered in the emperor's imperial study, and of course, there were Zhang Shi, the boss of the Privy Council, and Su Dongpo, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty.

Everyone was immediately attracted by the sand table, which was as big as a desk, six feet square. Soon, when everyone arrived, they looked at Wang Yang with his little stitch and poked the small sculptures on the sand table with his mouth, pointing fingers.

After the initial shock, the officials jumped out and asked Wang Yang what the various values ​​in the so-called war chess deduction were obtained.

Wang Yang naturally advertised his theoretical performance of war chess. Later, in order to prove the feasibility of war chess of Wang Daguanren.

Wang Hou, one of the most famous generals of the Song Dynasty, stood up as a military representative with strong reputation and qualifications among the people present.

"After hearing what Mr. Wang said, Wang was itchy. It would be better to do this. Since it is a war game deduction that can be used to determine the victory or defeat, how about you and I just use this sand table to interpret a game?"

"It's great that Lord Wang is so interested." Wang Yangzheng explained a lot to himself. It was obvious that the evil expression on his face was that I believed you, which made the official Wang, who was already full of confidence and full of desire, feel very distressed.

Unexpectedly, during the reign of Emperor Shenzong of Song, three articles of "Pingrong Strategy" were presented to Emperor Shenzong. With the support of the emperor, Xihe River opened its borders and expanded its borders for more than 2,000 miles, recovered the six states of Xi, He, Tao, Min, Die and Dang, and restored the situation where the Central Plains dynasty controlled this area before the Anshi Rebellion.

It is praised by the world as the greatest military victory achieved by the Northern Song Dynasty in the past eighty years after the separatist situation of the ten countries.

Wang Houyi has always followed his father. He was deeply educated by his father's family and volunteered to stand up and pk him on the sand table in front of everyone. Wang Yang was naturally very happy.

First, he explained the sand table and the functions and rules of various war games to Wang Hou in detail, and most of them listened to his explanations silently, and occasionally asked a question or two.

Wargame deduction is actually not complicated. The complexity lies in the strategic vision and on-site performance of the general.

After asking the rules clearly, Wang Hou stroked the black beard and smiled confidently. "Okay, then Wang will play the role of the commander of the Liao army, and Lord Wang, how about you, continue to preside over the Song army?"

"Of course there is no problem, Lord Wang please..." Wang Yang smiled confidently, led to the direction of the sand table, and began to signal.

Next, all the senior officials of the Song Dynasty who had never seen the so-called sand table war chess deduction for the first time saw what war chess deduction meant.

Wang Hou played the role of the Liao army commander Yelu and Luwu in a normal manner. According to his march, he commanded the nearly 500,000 troops and slowly advanced towards Youzhou City.

While Wang Yang responded calmly, he still had the time to explain to those important officials the most likely problems and mistakes in the war chess deduction process.

There are also several powerful maths who were specially ordered by the emperor to come next to them. There is no way. The deduction of war games cannot be just a verbal word, but also requires a lot of calculation work.

Every step of Wang Yang and Wang Hou would make these powerful maths pull out the abacus beads for a while, so that they could get a certain data.

Every step is very slow and difficult, and every step requires a lot of calculations, but the ministers present, either the emperor Zhao Xu or Su Dongpo.

But no one showed impatience, because, with the sound of calculations and numbers, it represents the life-threatening battle between countless soldiers on both sides on the battlefield, and it also represents the passing and end of countless lives.

At first, Wang Hou just felt it was novel and had many doubts. After all, his father was Wang Shao, the most famous general in the Shenzong Dynasty. His words and deeds also made Wang Hou, who was his son, full of confidence and pride.

What do you rely on for the achievements of your father? Of course, it depends on the decision on the spot and his outstanding military talent. However, Wang Yang told himself shamelessly that he could calculate the victory or defeat based on the thing he had made.

What is this not bullshit? Even though Wang Hou did not participate in the Battle of Northern Shaanxi, it did not prevent him, the son of the famous general, from paying close attention to the battle of northern Shaanxi.

After all, he was the place where he had fought with his father for many years, in the northwest area.

Because for many times, the emperor would still call on them, such as the ministers who were proficient in military strategies, to discuss the situation of the front line, and their expectations for the prospects of the war.

However, Wang Yang was always unexpected and won one impossible victory after another beyond everyone's expectations. Later, when the emperor came to consult and ask for advice, everyone almost didn't dare to say anything positive.

This made the generals who had been in the court for a long time feel deeply frustrated. When they were young, they were not the winners on the battlefield. But now, they have been slapped in the face by one junior one after another with unexpected victory.

From the beginning of the Battle of Huanqing Road to the offensive and defensive battle in Youzhou, a group of veteran drivers felt frustrated. Although Wang Yang did not offend them directly, he even brought a lot of good things to the Song Dynasty military. The Song Dynasty military was quite fond of him.

But because of the frequent expectations, no one would feel happy.

Now, Wang Yang told everyone that this thing can calculate the outcome of the Battle of Youzhou, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of these important officials in the court. Wang Hou's volunteering was exactly in line with the expectations of a military boss.

Wang Hou's son, a military spokesperson with rich experience in facing the enemy and a deep family, gave Wang Yang a lesson so that he could not miss the heroes of the world.

Wang Hou was very confident at the beginning because he really couldn't believe that he could actually calculate the winner with just such a wonderful sand table, a few sieves, abacus, and some formulas. What's the point?

However, as war games were deduced and as the war continued according to the actual situation, everyone's expressions became more and more solemn, even heavy.

With each step of deduction, Wang Hou was surprised to find that the morale of the Liaoxia coalition he had was becoming lower and lower. Facing the outrageous defense of Youzhou City and powerful offensive and defensive weapons like Yuanyou Stone Thrower, all his hundreds of thousands of great powers were useless.

What made him most desperate was that as the war continued, all the strategies and changes of the Liao commanders Yelu and Luwu seemed to have fallen into Wang Yang's control, and every move was so difficult.

And the generals who were originally confident that as long as the commander was different, even with the same strategy, could definitely gain an advantage. The faces of the generals who were originally confident and who were different are becoming increasingly ugly.

Emperor Zhao Xu looked at it and saw that as the numbers changed, it was not only the forces, supplies, but also morale, and the wounded...

These changes in values ​​are affecting the winners and losers on the battlefield. With the continuity of the war and the addition of uncertain factors, Wang Hou has become more and more difficult.
