After a quarrel, Lin'an of the Song Dynasty finally decided that Zhao Kui, the commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, and Quan Zicai, the pioneer, would send troops as soon as possible to take Luoyang back under the rule of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Kui and Xianfeng quanzi, the commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, received the imperial edict. They agreed on how to march together.
When Hao Jing came to Bianliang in Tokyo, he only secretly met with Xianfeng quanzicai, but not Zhao Kui, the commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo. Xianfeng quanzi was selfish and didn't tell Zhao Kui what Hao Jing said to him.
He thought that if Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, knew the inside story, he would probably lead the army in person.
If so, Zhao Kui, the commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, would take the first prize, and he would not be able to win it.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, told Xianfeng quanzicai, "now that we have the imperial edict from the emperor, we can send troops at any time."
"Just one thing, Ben is worried now." He added.
Xianfeng quanzi asked, "marshal, what are you worried about?"
"At present, our food and grass is only enough for half a month. If we march into Luoyang immediately, except for the food and grass left in Bianliang in Tokyo, the army in Luoyang can only take seven days of food and grass." Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, replied.
When Xianfeng quanzi heard this, he said: "marshal, there are not many Mongolian soldiers in Luoyang now. It is estimated that when we go, they will leave. In this case, from our 80000 garrison, we only need to send 10000 troops to recover Luoyang. When we get to Luoyang, we can raise food from the rich families in Luoyang besides the seven day military provisions we have with us We should not be able to support the transportation of grain to the south. "
"Your view is exactly the same as that of Jia Xiangye." Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said to him after listening to the words of pioneer quanzicai.
He added: "but I'm still a little uneasy."
"What's troubling you, marshal?" Xianfeng quanzi asked.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, asked Quan Zicai, "don't you think this operation is a little smooth?"
"It's like filling in a pie." He added.
Xianfeng quanzi said: "marshal, this is the battle. Good luck has come. Naturally, everything is going well."
"War is not all about luck." Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, retorted.
Xianfeng quanzi then asked: "marshal, listen to your voice, do you want to hold still?"
"This March to Luoyang was put forward by both of us. Our plan has been approved by the emperor. Of course, we can't go back on it." Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, replied.
He thought for a moment and said, "well, just in case, you will lead 20000 troops, grain and grass for seven days, and March from Bianliang in Tokyo to Luoyang in western capital in three days."
"Thank you for your trust in the general." Xianfeng quanzi listened to the words of Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo. He was very happy and bowed to him.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, motioned the pioneer quanzi to sit down and said, "two days after your troops leave, I will personally lead 50000 troops as your backup."
"Marshal, you and the last general led 70000 troops to Luoyang and Xijing, but there are 10000 troops left in Tokyo and Luoyang to defend Tokyo. Isn't the force a little weak?" Xianfeng quanzi asked.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, replied: "this commander-in-chief doesn't know, but the emperor has made the recovery of Luoyang, the western capital, the top priority of the great song dynasty. As human ministers, we should not be cautious about this."
"Marshal, in order to be safe, we must expect the enemy to be lenient in this matter, but the general thinks that the marshal doesn't need to send so many troops. He only needs to send 40000 of our 80000 troops. 70000 is really too much." All the pioneers are talented.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said: "from Tokyo to Luoyang, it's not near, it's not far. Although the Mongolian Khanate doesn't have many troops at present, they are mainly cavalry in Mongolia. If they want to increase their troops, it's very easy, and the speed of our army movement can't be compared with that of Mongolian cavalry."
He added: "if the Mongols really want to increase their troops, and we want to increase our troops from Tokyo and Luoyang, it will be too late."
For Xianfeng quanzicai, he just wants to get a head start in this matter so as to get a promotion and get rich, but he doesn't want to take any risks.
A little more troops will do him no harm but good.
"Marshal, what you have considered is very comprehensive, which I didn't expect at the end of the day." Xianfeng quanzi was appointed to Zhao Kui Dao, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said: "this commander-in-chief is the highest person in charge of the 80000 troops. We need to consider everything we do."
"Now that we've all agreed, you'll go and get ready." He added.
Xianfeng quanzi said to Zhao Kui, commander in chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo: "respect your order, commander in chief."Then he backed out.
After Xianfeng quanzi quit, Zhao Kui, the commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, looked at the map hanging in the room.
Just a few eyes, a small school came in from the outside, said: "report to the commander, someone asked to see."
"Who wants to see Ben Shuai?" Zhao Kui, the commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, did not look back after listening to the school's words, so he asked.
The little school replied, "tell the marshal that it's female Xia Yang Miaozhen who has come back."
"Why did he come back at this time?" After listening to the school's answer, Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, has always respected Yang Miaozhen, so he let the school take him out of the door to meet her in person.
"I've never met a marshal." When Yang Miaozhen saw Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, he bowed.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said, "female Xia Yang, don't be polite."
"Nvxia Yang, I heard that you are going to marry Zheng Huchen, commander of the imperial army. How can you come here when you have time?" They came to the house and sat down. Zhao Kui, the commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, asked Yang Miaozhen.
Yang Miaozhen did not hide anything, so he told Zhao Kui, the commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, what happened between himself and Zheng Huchen, the commander of the imperial army.
"Well, I didn't expect that such a thing happened. I'm really sorry for you two." Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said after listening to Yang Miao's truth.
Female Xia Yang Miaozhen said to Zhao Kui, commander in chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo: "commander in chief, there is no way to do this. Since people have a new lover, we can't rely on them."
"What's the matter with you coming to see Ben Shuai this time?" Asked Zhao Kui, commander of the Bianliang garrison in Tokyo.
Female Xia Yang Miaozhen replied: "I also want to work under your command."
"If so, Ben Shuai would certainly like it." After listening to Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, he said.
He added: "you are still a general here. To tell you the truth, there is a big action here. We need manpower. Today you are here. It's like sending charcoal in the snow."
Female Xia Yang Miaozhen asked Zhao Kui, commander in chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, "commander in chief, you have not recovered Luoyang. How can you have a major action?"
"Maybe you just left Lin'an, I don't know." Zhao Kui Dao, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo.
He said to Yang Miaozhen: "Lin'an has officially issued an imperial edict that our troops stationed in Tokyo can send troops to recover Xijing and Luoyang. If you come here earlier, you can see pioneer Quan Zicai here. He was here just now and discussed with him about sending troops to Xijing and Luoyang."
"As soon as we signed a peace agreement with the Mongols, we went to recover Xijing Luoyang, which was controlled by the Mongols. Will this give the Mongolian Khanate a reason to send war?" Female Xia Yang Miaozhen asked Zhao Kui Dao, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo.
After listening to the words of commander-in-chief Zhao Xikui, the commander-in-chief of the Mongol garrison in Bianjing, he was worried that he would lose a lot
"Maybe after the Mongolian khantin signed the peace treaty with us, they regretted it again, and they seduced us to launch a war, so that they could take the opportunity to launch a comprehensive attack on our song dynasty?" He asked.
Female Xia Yang Miaozhen said: "marshal, it's not that there is no such possibility."
"But that's it. There's no way. Since the imperial edict has been issued, we ministers have to carry it out." Zhao Kui Dao, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo.
He added: "after the vanguard led 20000 troops in the first place, I want to lead 50000 troops in the back. Now that you are back, I will make a slight change in my deployment."
"Marshal, how do you want to change?" After listening to Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, Yang Miaozhen asked.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, replied: "the vanguard March will not change. Ten thousand troops will be drawn from the fifty thousand troops led by our commander as guards. You will lead and serve as guards. Our commander will lead forty thousand troops and serve as the central army
"Divide our men into three ways, so that if one of them is in danger, the other two will be able to meet quickly." Female Xia Yang Miaozhen.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said, "this is what I mean."
"To tell you the truth, I haven't been afraid since I've been marching and fighting for so many years, but I'm a little afraid this time." He added.
Female Xia Yang Miaozhen comforted Zhao Kui, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, and said: "commander in chief, you've arranged so carefully this time. If there's any conspiracy of the Mongols, we can deal with it."
"I hope so." Zhao Kui Dao, commander of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo.
He also asked, "you have been away from our Bianliang garrison in Tokyo for some time. Maybe you are familiar with some things in the army. The former army is the main force among the 10000 troops that my commander assigned to you. OK?""Marshal, that's really good. The last general's former subordinates are more comfortable with him." Female Xia Yang Miaozhen.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said: "the commander-in-chief will appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the rear army."
"Marshal, you can let the last general serve the country. Of course, the last general is willing to obey orders. However, the last general has just returned from Lin'an and has not made any contribution, so you appoint the last general. I'm afraid the other generals under your command are not convinced." Female Xia Yang Miaozhen.
Zhao Kui, commander-in-chief of Bianliang garrison in Tokyo, said to Yang Miaozhen: "you don't have to worry about this. Your ability is obvious among the generals under the commander-in-chief. They have absolutely no opinions about appointing you as the commander-in-chief of the rear army."
"Well, you should be tired after a long journey. I'll arrange someone to take you to have a rest." He added.
Then he asked the school to take Yang Miaozhen to a rest ..。
After leaving Lin'an, Hao Jing did not stop on the road. With his followers, he came to Luoyang without stopping.
As soon as he came back, his assistant, general tazar, immediately came to find Haojing.
As soon as he came in, he asked Hao Jing, "Mr. Hao, how are things going?"
"There's no need to ask. As long as Hao Jing comes out, there's something that can't be done." Hao Jing was very proud.
Tazar thumbed up and said to Hao Jing, "Mr. Hao, no wonder the fourth Prince appointed you as the envoy to the south. It's not the general who praised you. Among the Han people, your ability is really one of the best."
"General, you just wait for the fourth prince to reward you when it's done." Hao Jingdao.
Tazar said: "if our general is able to make military contributions this time, it will be thanks to you, Mr. Hao. At that time, you will certainly benefit from Mr. Hao."
"You and I work for the fourth prince, but we are from our own family. Why be polite? This benefit is not necessary." Hao Jing is a grand way.
Hao Jing would never refuse the gift giver. This time he didn't accept the gift promised by tazar, in fact, he wanted to win over general tazar.
He knew that as an envoy to the south, if he wanted to gain a firm foothold here, he would not be able to do so without the leadership of tazar, who held the military power.
Hao Jing asked tachar, "general, have you arranged all our troops after I leave?"
"Everything was arranged according to our plan." Replied tachar.
Hao Jing listened to him and said, "if so, I'll be relieved."
"Next, we'll wait for the Song court's action." He added.
General tazar said, "please rest assured, Mr. Hao. The general is responsible for all the military affairs. Mr. Bao Hao is satisfied."
"General, you are one of the brave generals under the command of our four princes. This is a piece of cake for you." After listening to general tazar, Haojing flattered him.
