Chapter 2 Invitation
"Greetings to the General!" "Greetings to the General."
Wang Yue summoned Doctor Shennan and the commander of the national commander Gong Liangshu for a while. When he entered the tent, he welcomed a warm welcome. After a greeting, he sat in the main seat and looked at Gong Liangshu and Doctor Shennan.
To be honest, this discussion was not a solemn formal meeting. The main reason was that Shen State and Huai Shang are both members of the Chen League. Even if the strengths of the two sides differ, their status is equal and there is no upper and lower relationship. In other words, unless the five Huai Shang State want to replace Chen State as the leader of the alliance in this alliance, they cannot initiate an alliance. At most, everyone gathered together for a while. Because Wang Yue was eager to return to Jidi, the meeting would be even less formal until the king of Shen State attended.
After a little look, his eyes fell on a middle-aged man in his forties and a seemingly old farmer next to Gong Liangshu, the commander of the National Command of the State of Shen Kingdom.
The aura of this person gives him a very familiar feeling. Although it is different from Zi Yu and Zi Jing in the past, it is very similar, but it is much more powerful. He should be an important figure in the peasant school.
"General, this is the elder Shanyi of the peasant school of our Shen Kingdom. All this meeting can be conveyed by him to the king of our Shen Kingdom." Seeing Wang Yue paying a little attention, Gong Liangshu introduced Wang Yuej.
That is, like the first-class priest of Huaibo, but it must be a strong elder to have this ability. Wang Yue nodded and bowed to the account first and bowed to the people in the account and said, "Good General, dear doctors, you have discussed various handover matters with our nobles on Huaihang these days. I am the commander of the Allied Forces on Huaihang, but I must avoid suspicion. So until today, I will apologize to you first. If you are rude, please include one or two."
Gong Liangshu smiled and said, "The general is very open-minded and noble, and he is also respectful. In the future, he couldn't even see the general. He felt quite unhappy. Now he knows the reason, but it is my Gong Liangshu's heart."
The doctors also responded in unison, saying that Wang Yue commanded the 300,000 coalition forces, and everything was busy, and it was an honor to take the time to see him.
After this, the atmosphere became lively.
When it calmed down a little, Wang Yue thought about it and said, "Recently, Cai State has captured Xiangdu, and nearly 4,000 soldiers and chariots have been raging, and it is overwhelming in Shen State and Huai Shang. Now the Japanese general will gather you all for a while, mainly to discuss this matter with you, so that you can cooperate with the future battles."
"Originally, I hope that the general of Gongliang would convey all the matters to the king of your country. Now that it is better to have Elder Shanyi here."
"What do you think about this situation, the king and general of your country have?"
Gong Liangshu thought about it and said, "Cai State was just a military chariot and a unit of the national division entered our Shen State. Our Shen State was almost defeated. The army of our Shen State and the troops of the Shen Nan were all suffering heavy losses. Fortunately, the general's army entered Shen, and successively broke Ji State. The situation was settled."
"My Shen State is weak and difficult to be the army of Cai, and it is even more impossible at this time. Therefore, the king told me that the battle against Cai should be led by the General on Huai. If possible, I hope that the general can stay in the elite army of Po Zhu in our Shen State, so that my Shen State has some confidence."
"As for the food and military pay of your troops, I am willing to bear the food and military pay with all my strength, and I would rather pay double the military pay."
Wang Yue thought for a moment and said, "The State of Cai attacked the country of our Chen Alliance. All the countries of our Chen Alliance have the right to rescue. In addition to asking for help from our Huai River, other Chen Alliance countries such as Cao and Ye, have Xu sent envoys there? Can various countries respond?"
Gong Liangshu smiled bitterly and said, "All countries, Shen countries have sent envoys, but these three countries are close to Chen State and are close to Chen State's ministers, so they are also involved in the Chen domestic chaos. How can they be eliminated from the charges of Shen State?"
He sighed: "Only Gao Yi, the Huai River, is the young master who personally led his army to aid, otherwise our country of Shen will definitely be destroyed this time."
"Can the general know what the civil strife in Chen State is now? Can it be quelled in a short time?"
Gong Liangshu shook his head and said, "I heard that Zhao Xiangzi had made arrangements during this civil turmoil in Chen. So, as soon as the civil turmoil came, the army of Taiyin and Feng clans defeated the other four families, but their main force retreated and retreated to their respective territories."
"And the defeat of the Chen Dynasty's ministers has always been annihilated. Over the past few hundred years, countless large families have been destroyed. Therefore, Taiyin and Feng clan army did not surrender. General, the main force of these two soldiers still exists, and they are defending their territory..."
Gong Liangshu did not continue to speak, but the meaning in the words was clear, which means that the war could not be counted on Chen State, Cao, Ye, and Xu State.
Wang Yue nodded, thought a little, and said, "General Gongliang, this time my army on Huai was launched on Jidi, and the 40,000 soldiers in my hands, including the 60,000 elite troops left behind at Jidi, are actually the main force of the decisive battle against Cai State."
"If there is no such thing as the general, there is no certainty for the State of Cai. If this battle cannot be won, not only you, Shen, but also the five countries on Huai, will no longer be able to bear the power of Cai, so I am afraid that I cannot stay in Shen at your request."
"General." Gong Liangshu and Shennan doctors shouted together.
Wang Yue waved his hand and said, "Everyone, please listen to this general."
After pausing, when everyone was feeling a little calmer, Wang Yue continued: "In this battle against Cai, the army of the five countries on Huai was stationed in Jidi, and the troops were suppressed by the Xiang Kingdom. Cai's southeast and Caizhong lands, and the Sui Kingdom in the north also restrained the northern military power of Cai. In addition, although Xiang was broken, there were still many remaining forces in the country, so the troops that Cai could use to Shen Kingdom were extremely limited, so you don't need to worry too much."
He smiled: "If Cai really dares to push into Shen State, I will go north from Jidi to Xiang State to cut off its retreat. By then, its chariot will be yesterday's Ji family and Zhu family. We can break it all at once, which is a good thing."
Gong Liangshu nodded and asked, "How should the general think that our Shenguo army should act?"
Wang Yue said: "Shen's army cannot be helped by Cao and Xu Ye's countries receive assistance, so there is no need to do more."
"In this case, I suggest that your country can garrison troops in Shenzhong and Shenbei, which are in the west of Xiangguo, and hold on to the city and find ways to contact the remaining troops of Xiangguo and support them. You only need to do this well. In the future, you can just wait for the final battle between our Huai Shang Army and Cai Kingdom. "
The Gongliangshu family led the troops for the king of Shen for generations, so they naturally understood military affairs. When he thought about Wang Yue's situation carefully, he used the Jidi, which was stationed on the northern border of Shenzhong and the Huai Shang Army as the pinnacle.
If the entire Cai State dares to invade Shen State, the Huai Shang Army can go north and attack directly behind.
If you don’t have all your strength and just divide your troops, you may not be able to attack the city defended by Shen State. Without saying anything, it will also cause the main force of the decisive battle with the Huai Shang Army. Therefore, before Cai State resolved the Huai Shang Army, Shen State had no much worries.
As for supporting the remnants of Xiang State, this is causing trouble for Cai State.
If Cai State doesn't care, the remnants of the army can still mobilize their troops to grow stronger in their own country, and they are almost destroyed. Who cares about the rest? Just pulling out all the young and strong people in the country, it will be a big army in just a few months.
If you don’t want this situation to happen, you will have to take care of it. Cai State will score several times the military force to deal with it, which will relieve the pressure on the Huai Shang Army.
In general, the main force of this battle was led by the Huai Shang Army. Shen Guo really didn't need to do too much. Thinking of this, Gong Liangshu nodded secretly. He said that this battle was led by Huai Shang, but he still had some concerns in his heart, but now he is going to do it all.
After thinking about it, Gong Liangshu discussed with Elder Shanyi and lent the matter to the monarch. After no doubt, the matter was decided. Later, Wang Yue invited several Huaibo priests and sent them to Shenzhong to strengthen information communication between the two sides.
The short meeting ended here, and everyone left.
"Elder Shanyi, please stay." Outside the tent, Elder Shanyi of the peasant family was suddenly stopped by Wang Yue and turned around with confusion.
Wang Yue bowed to him and said, "When I was in Shennan, I was friends with Ziyu and Zijing, Guipai, but I didn't know that I hadn't seen each other for several months. Are they okay?"
Elder Shanyi suddenly felt much closer to him and felt a little joyful on his face.
All schools of thought seek development, and their peasants are no exception.
I knew that the descendants of my school had a good relationship with big names like Wang Yue, how could he be unhappy? He smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern. Ziyu and Zijing are now following my sect leader Luzi, so I was unable to come with me this time, otherwise the general would meet them."
"That's a pity." Wang Yue said regretfully: "That day, although I had not been with Zi Yu and Zi Jing for a long time, I benefited a lot."
"Yindi?" Elder Shanyi said in surprise: "Is the General the talented warrior Zijing Yu Yindi met? My Luzi praised the general's knowledge and remarks."
Wang Yue smiled and said, "Some stupid and absurd comments can't be praised by Lu Zi. However, Lu Zi's knowledge can only be seen through Zi Jing. It's really unfathomable. I wanted to visit him in the past, but unfortunately I was plagued by important things at that time and failed to do it. As for now, I can't get rid of it."
After thinking for a while, he said, "After the decisive battle between Huai Shang and Cai, my Snake Yu family repeated Snake Yu country in Jidi. We should invite Lu Zi and his peasant children to watch the ceremony. We can use this to sit with him and discuss the truth. I wonder if the elders can convey this invitation to me."
Elder Shanyi was overjoyed, but asked, "Listen to the general's words, I seem to be quite confident in this battle?"
Wang Yue took out a famous post and handed it to Elder Shanyi: "If you don't have this confidence, how dare you talk about restoring the country's affairs?"
Elder Shanyi took the famous letter with both hands and bowed, "I will never let down the general's entrustedness."
The two of them exchanged a few more greetings, and Elder Shanyi left happily. After a moment, the military soldiers on Huai River came to pack the military tent together, and soon packed some things into a car. Looking at the camp, there were such busy scenes everywhere.
Soon after, the troops, chariots, baggage, warriors and soldiers gathered in an orderly manner, and the army slowly left the turf and headed for the Yin area to the east.
