"Dun Ning, the governor of the Liang army, gathered 80,000 troops to the north from Chang'an, and reached the Sanyuan border south of Yaozhou. He then divided his troops to Fuping, connecting various places to set up camps and camps, intending to block the movement of our army south..."

Li Tianqu heard the military academy report on military information and learned that in order to keep Chang'an, the Liang State connected Sanyuan to the north and set up a defense line in Fuping. Sanyuan County has Menghou Yuan in the west, Fengyuan in the south and Bailuyuan in the north, so it was named. It is located in the middle of the Guanzhong Plain. In later generations, it belonged to the core area of ​​the Guanzhong Plain urban agglomeration, and can basically be said to be the gateway to the north of Chang'an.

As for Fuping's location between the Guanzhong Plain and the northern Shaanxi Plateau, when the official history and the Song Dynasty intersected, the Jin Kingdom intended to annex Sichuan and Shaanxi, so it sent Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Nianhan and other main generals to fight with Zhang Jun, Qu Duan, Wu Jie and other important officials of the Song Dynasty, which shows that it has certain strategic significance.

However... Duan Ning, who formed a clique for personal gain in the Liang Dynasty and grasped military power, had to personally lead the army to resist... He was worried that he had to bite the bullet and go to battle. Whether facing the Later Tang army in the line of history or facing the pressure of the Wei Dynasty, Duan Ning would indeed gather troops as much as possible and try to resist.

Duan Ning's mentality is easy to understand. Even if the Liang State is in danger, he is still a popular person next to the last emperor of Liang Zhu Youzhen. Being a powerful minister who calls for the wind and rain in the court is always more powerful than being a surrender who has to surrender and is under the roof. Even if the Liang State is about to fall one day, it will have to survive this invasion of the enemy's army... This war was destroyed, so how can you bargain with Wei, Jin and other countries and discuss how to surrender with conditions?

However, Li Tianqu originally thought that Chang'an of Liang State should also send envoys to come, asking for a fight by asking for compensation for land cedes and submitting tribute to the above, and at least it would take some time to fight.

However, after thinking about it, Li Tianqu thought that the ruler and ministers of Liang were also very clear: now that the Wei army has killed Tongguan, there is no need to negotiate with him; as for King Li Cunxu of Jin... there is a great hatred between the Li family in Hedong and the Zhu family in Liang. Now, taking advantage of your national strength to decline, there is no possibility of the enemy family and the national fortune continue.

Therefore, the Liang Kingdom could only hold on, just hold on. With the intention of taking chances, I hoped to waste Wei and Jin people were in a shortage of horses, so I had to withdraw my troops for the time being. But the question is, when can Duan Ning command the 80,000 Liang troops?

Li Tianqu was guarded by several groups of imperial guards in the capital, and set off from Xinping, the capital of Binzhou, and arrived at the southern corner of the prefecture, Yaozhou and Chang'an, not far away from Chunhua, and also belonged to the Chunhua territory of the Three Qins. Several troops of the Wei Dynasty set up camp here, and in the commander's tent, Li Tianqu then discussed military operations with Liu Wen, Kang Huaiying, Xia Luqi, Kang Yanxiao and other generals.

Wang Yanzhang, the chief inspector of the Wei Dynasty's Palace Front Office, has also led 30,000 troops to set up camp fifty miles south of Huayuan, Yaozhou. He formed a confrontation with Duan Ning, who presided over the Sanyuan and Fuping defense line, and could start a war at any time.

Now that we are going to kill the city of Chang'an, it is just around the corner. However, Duan Ning and other Liang troops are still fighting. If they adopt a strong defensive force, they will inevitably have to pay a certain price of casualties.

What's more, to the west of Chang'an, there are Fengxiang Prefecture, Longzhou, Jingzhou and other prefectures under the control of the Liang State. Therefore, if you focus on Chang'an, the remaining troops of the Liang army to the west will not gather troops to harass the rear...

Regarding the Liang regime, how should this battle to destroy the country be the most appropriate?

In the generals' tent, all the generals expressed their opinions and discussed it. Liu Xu, a typical representative of the wise general in the army, stroked his long beard and suddenly spoke:

"Although there are Fengxiang Prefecture and Long, Jing and other military prefectures west of Chang'an, they have not yet been captured. They have dispatched large troops to shock the Liang army in Duan Ning's troops in Fuping, and our army gradually captured the territory still under the control of the surrounding Liang Kingdom, and then formed a siege against Chang'an. This is even more secure...

However, there was still Li Cunxu in the north, and it took so long that it would change later. In this way, it would be necessary to kill Duan Ning's 80,000 Liang troops as soon as possible. However, if he blindly defended his troops, it would not be possible to break it day and night. If he could use a trick to lure him into ambushing and capture and kill this guy in one fell swoop..."

Liu Xiu said in a deep voice. He thought about it carefully, and there seemed to be a shiny light in his eyes. After all, he, a wise general who claims to be a one-step move, is easy to use strategies every time he uses troops. Now he is about destroying the enemy Liang State in one fell swoop, and he also competes with Li Cunxu, the Jin State, and is racing against time to seize the territory under the Liang State as much as possible... Liu Xiu also knew that he should think carefully as much as possible and not be negligent.

"Your Majesty! I have a plan!"

Suddenly, Kang Yanxiao, who was sitting on the side, rushed up, and his face was full of excitement of seeking great achievements. To put it bluntly, Li Tianqu knew that Kang Yanxiao was very utilitarian, but the soldiers who did not want to be generals were not good soldiers. As a military general, he naturally had the intention of making achievements and wanted to achieve a greater future.

Moreover, compared with Wang Yanzhang and Fu Cunshen and others in the Wei Dynasty's army, it can be said that they had a great opportunity to rise. Of course, he also had to strive for the first achievement of Liang's destruction.

When Kang Yanxiao, who was eager to try, looked at Li Tianqu, simply bowed his head and then said:

"I think that if we want to destroy Liang State quickly, we should send out a surprise army. This will not only determine the country's fortune in one fell swoop, but at that time, the 80,000 troops will definitely have to surrender to our dynasty. And the King of Jin is unwilling to accept it... However, the Jin army of his troops could only look to the south and sigh, but they had to sit and watch the vast territory of Liang State fall into our dynasty's hands!"

Shooting a surprise?

When Li Tianqu and the generals in the tent all looked at him, Kang Yanxiao straightened his back and said loudly:

"The last emperor was incompetent and cowardly, Duan Ning was treacherous and evil, and he believed that most of the Jin Dynasty were the generals, and all the generals of Liang were behind him. Such a villain promoted the post, and all the loyal ministers and brave men were refuted to him. This was the situation that he would die. The Liang army is now out of power, and he has to resist our army, and there is no more division.

Therefore, I asked for an order to lead 5,000 cavalry to set off from here Chunhua, enter Qianzhou, and pass Linjing. In this way, you can bypass the Sanyuan where Duan Ning is stationed, Fuping a corner, and then go straight to Chang'an. If you are unexpected and make the emptiness, you will be able to complete the plan of placing Liang within a few days!"

Kang Yanxiao's proposal to launch a surprise attack and take Chang'an directly was not a fantastic or creative plan. It was indeed feasible, but in theory he could think of it, and Liang State should be able to predict it.

Since Fengxiang Prefecture, Longzhou, Jingzhou, Longzhou, etc. to the west, including Qianzhou, is still under the control of the Liang State. Five thousand soldiers and horses rushing into the country will also arouse the alertness of the local prefectures. However, what Kang Yanxiao wants to bet was that the Liang army from all walks of life did not have time to react and directly posed a threat to the capital Chang'an. This shock made the Liang State government shocked and despaired. As long as Chang'an was successfully attacked, including Duan Ning's 80,000 Liang troops, the prefectures in various places would only raise the white flag to surrender.

But if there is still a dangerous city in Chang'an, if the city still needs to be used to fight to the death... Five thousand soldiers and horses will go deep into the enemy's territory, and their military strength will not be enough to attack the famous city with high moats and deep moats.

When Liang Guozhou Prefecture gathered troops and surrounded him, there was also a risk of being eaten. However, wars were originally necessary to take risks, and wealth and fame were sought in danger. Since Kang Yanxiao wanted to achieve great achievements as soon as possible, he strongly advised him to lead thousands of military cavalry and attack Chang'an in a roundabout way... This is reasonable.

Taking a certain risk in this way can lead to great benefits, but Kang Yanxiao cannot say that his plan will definitely succeed... But Li Tianqu suddenly thought that if he took the official history line, wasn't it because Li Cunxu adopted Kang Yanxiao's strategy that the newly captured Yunzhou sent cavalry to attack Bianliang before the tens of thousands of Liang soldiers led by Duan Ning had not been annihilated?

But what was the result of that war? Thousands of sharp cavalry attacked Bianzhou, and in just eight days, Houliang had already destroyed the country.
