Chapter 15 Lao Zhai wants to commit suicide (1)
Xia Yu returned to the camp and was a little exhausted. This class was really a hard work.
"Military advisor, you rest, I'll go to get dinner for you." Zhang Yu didn't say it, but when he said it, Xia Yu was a little hungry.
"No need." At this time, someone came into the tent.
Xia Yu looked familiar, and the guy who seemed to be crazy just now couldn't help but ask, "Are you?"
"Military advisor, I am Zhang Ananda, the chief guard of the King of Qin. According to your order, the military advisor is asked to go to the chief tent to discuss matters, and dinner is also prepared." Zhang Ananda said very politely.
Eunuch!? Xia Yu was stunned, no wonder she looked a little feminine.
Finally remembered why he looked familiar. He had seen this person beside Li Er, and he was huddled aside, as if he was invisible.
But why does this name sound familiar?
Suddenly, Xia Yu began to think about it.
Although this Ananda Zhang was not famous in history, he was a hidden boss and was powerful in the Zhenguan Dynasty.
This person serves Li Shimin throughout his life and is loyal to the greatest extent.
Li Shimin also trusted him very much and allowed him to serve as the commander of the imperial guards throughout his life, and even served as the general of the left guard.
It can be said that Zhang Ananda was responsible for the safety of the palace alone.
During the Zhenguan period, only Ananda, the eunuchs were appointed as marquis, and only Ananda, the eunuchs were appointed as marquis.
Even in the 17th year of Zhenguan, after Ananda Zhang died of illness, Li Shimin gave him a burial to Zhaoling.
This honor is not only the only eunuchs in the Zhenguan Dynasty, but also many famous princes and ministers who were not worthy of it.
It can be said that this is a master of the world like Zheng He, the real number one person in the big house!
"It turns out to be General Manager Zhang," Xia Yu knew that the person in front of him was very awesome, so he didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly greeted him: "I'm sorry, you'll go here, let's leave."
Ananda Zhang was stunned and quite flattered.
He is a low-key person. He is not eye-catching around Li Shimin on weekdays, and he never becomes arrogant because of favor.
Because of his special identity as an eunuch, many civil and military officials around Li Shimin either ignored him or sneered at him.
It can be said that people have treated him equally like Xia Yu.
For a moment, Ananda Zhang had a good impression of Xia Yu: Although the military advisor had some quirks in life, he was really a gentleman.
"Military advisor wait." Ananda Zhang looked like a spring breeze: "Your Highness asked me to bring you some pens, ink, paper and inkstones, all of which are the imperial objects that His Majesty rewarded, and are worthy of a gentleman like a military advisor."
If Ananda Zhang was a smart person, Li Shimin asked him to give him some paper. After thinking about it, he said, "No, it's a bit too deliberate. He simply gave all the pen, ink, paper and ink.
Xia Yu was very happy and didn't notice that he had been arranged at all. She asked Zhang Yu to take over the things and went to see Li Shimin.
During the rear of the tent, Li Shimin sat quietly and waited.
"Your Highness, the military advisor has arrived." Zhang Ananda and Xia Yu entered one after another.
"Your Highness." Xia Yu greeted him.
"The military advisor is here, sit down."
When Xia Yu sat down, he saw a large portion of the famous dish "water basin mutton", as well as some popular Hu cakes, and a large bowl of herbal tea.
In the military camp, there is such food, which can be considered rich.
The two of them were eating and chatting. Ananda Zhang stood quietly aside, as if she had hidden herself again, as if she was born without a sense of existence.
"Your Highness is looking for me, but is there something wrong?"
"Yes, there are two things. I want to ask the military advisor to come up with ideas."
"Please say this, Your Highness."
Li Shimin said, "The first thing is to march south and north. On the southern front, General Shi Wanbao commanded 10,000 troops and stationed in Yiyang. I wanted him to directly attack Longmen and cut off Yishui. The military advisor thought it was feasible?"
"It is feasible. There is no general in the Longmen Zheng Army, so General Shi should be competent."
"The northern line, Gu planned to divide two routes. One route, General Liu Dewei from Hedong led 20,000 troops to go out of Taihang Mountain and attack Hanoi (Huaizhou)."
"On the other way, the marching chief Huang Junhan led a large army of 15,000 land and water, stationed in Baiya, the north bank of the Yellow River, peeked at Mengjin Pass, and restrained Luoyang's northern aid."
"Does the military advisor think it is feasible?"
Xia Yu thought about history and nodded, "It's feasible. But you need to pay attention to two points."
"Military advisor, please tell me."
"First, the one who is stationed in Huaizhou is Wang Tai, the son of Wang Shichong. This person still has certain talents and is especially good at defending. General Liu must be quick in his troops and attacking the city with great force. He must not give Wang Tai enough reaction time."
Li Shimin was surprised: "The military advisor also knows Wang Tai?"
Wang Tai, the pseudo-Zheng Song king, was only twenty years old, and was the first time he led his troops to seize the army alone. The Tang army did not know much about it.
But unexpectedly, Xia Yu knew it well.
"Of course." Xia Yu pretended to be mysterious and smiled: "Although my Guigu Sect doesn't come out of the mountain, I still know the world's affairs."
Li Shimin was frightened and thought that the Guigu Sect had a great hidden power and had great hands and eyes.
"It's worthy of being a world-class clan! I'm so lucky to have the help of a military advisor." Li Shimin was very happy: "What about the second point?"
"Huaizhou and Luoyang are across the river, which is very beneficial. When the Huaizhou war is in progress, Luoyang will have to devote his efforts to the north to help, and General Huang Junhan is under great pressure."
Li Shimin nodded and said, "The military advisor is worried that General Huang will not be competent?"
Xia Yu thought for a while and said, "There are many soldiers and generals in Luoyang, and the Heyang floating bridge is connected to Huaizhou. It can be said that he has the advantage. Although General Huang is extraordinary, he may have some difficulty."
Li Shimin pondered: "What the military advisor said is reasonable. But whether it is OK, you will know after fighting. Let General Huang try it. If there is any mistake, we can reinforce at any time. What does the military advisor think?"
"Yes." Xia Yu smiled: "The left and right are just local wars, and even if you are slow, you can't miss the big thing."
"Then it's decided, so I issued a military order overnight." Li Shimin said excitedly. He was a decisive person who would immediately implement it once a decision was made.
"By the way, in the morning, Gu heard the military advisor talk about General Zhai's affairs, and he was uneasy, so he came to him in the afternoon."
Xia Yu was stunned and hurriedly said, "Your Highness said it?"
"No." Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said, "How can this metaphysical matter be said to be clear? If General Zhai doesn't believe it, he may even resent the military advisor."
"What did Your Highness say?" Xia Yu said curiously.
"I just said that General Zhai was a little embarrassed and wanted to transfer him to lead the army alone, but I don't know what his intentions were."
Xia Yu felt that this reason was fine and asked, "Did General Zhai agree?"
Li Shimin sighed, looked bitter and didn't say anything.
Xia Yu was a little puzzled and looked at Ananda.
Ananda Zhang had no choice but to say: "Military advisor, General Zhai reacted very strongly. He asked if a villain had slandered His Highness and doubted his loyalty."
Ah!?Xia Yu's face turned green: Damn, I'm kind-hearted, why have you become a villain?
"When it comes to grief and anger, General Zhai actually drew his sword across his neck, saying that although he was a surrendered general of Xue Ju, he was loyal to His Highness. If His Highness doubted him, he would like to show his ambitions by death!"
"..." Xia Yu was stunned: Damn, Zhai Changsun is so explosive! He said in panic: "Then nothing happened, right?"
Ananda Zhang smiled bitterly: "Your Highness is very anxious and comforts him again and again, saying that there is no other intention. If General Zhai doesn't want to, then give up. Only then can he persuade the excited General Zhai to coax and persuade him to go back."
"..." Xia Yu was speechless: Isn't that in vain?
"Military advisor, what do you think is good?" Li Shimin looked depressed. It was too crazy to meet a timid temper like Zhai Changsun, but it was hard to say it clearly.
"Or what if we do military service in the future, try to let General Zhai fight as little as possible?" Xia Yu was also very upset and thought about it over and over again, and came up with an idea that was not an idea.
"That's all." Li Shimin sighed.
"Your Highness," just then, someone outside shouted: "I, Lao Cheng, ask for a meeting."
It was Cheng Yaojin's voice.
Li Shimin was stunned. He didn't know what Cheng Yaojin came to do, so he called out: "Come in."
Cheng Yaojin rushed in: "Hey, the military advisor is here too? Your Highness, what did you tell Lao Zhai in the afternoon? After he went back, he looked stern and started drinking alone."
"I asked him what happened to me. He said that His Highness suspected him. When I asked him again, I didn't say anything. I just drew my sword and rubbed it, and it made me feel terrified."
When Xia Yu and Li Shimin heard this, they were both panicked: This guy is not overwhelmed, is he going to commit suicide?
Everyone knows that the more straight a person is, the easier it is to get into a stubborn position.
"Hurry, go and have a look." Li Shimin suddenly felt like his butt was on fire, and a gust of wind rushed out of the tent.
Xia Yu and the other two were like rabbits caught in an arrow, and hurriedly followed.
