Chapter 423

    PS: who told me that the big envelope can increase the monthly ticket by a lot... Cheat paper


    Mangdang Mountain stretches for thousands of miles, cutting the Jiangnan along the North Bank of the Yangtze River. In the west, he turned south and crossed a mountain range of seven or eight hundred miles. The huangniu river turns northeast along the mountains and joins the Yangtze River.


    Fang Xie was surprised at the magnificence of Mangdang Mountain when he went south. Unlike the gentle arc of langrushan, which looks like a woman''s chest, Mangdangshan is towering and rugged. Now Fang Xie has to avoid not only the rebel rout, but also the left avant-garde.


    He can guess that Luo Yao''s purpose is xinkouchang. Yang yanye is dead and no one can stop him anymore. After xinkouchang got it, Luo Yao would not continue to wave troops north without interest. The roads in the Northwest were so tired that Luo Yaogen couldn''t see it. That''s why he would allow Yan Baoshan to escape with the disabled soldiers, otherwise he would destroy the rebels with a great victory.


    As long as Yin Po Shan was still there, Luo Yao had an excuse to continue to garrison Huang Yang Dao.


    Luo Yaoshen knows this.


    His brother, who keeps a big dog, chases businessmen and makes trouble from time to time. He can kill people and keep his awe of the place. If he didn''t pursue business, where would he find so many excuses to kill? The same is true of Yin Po Shan. As long as the rebels still have a certain strength on the North Bank of the huangniu River, Luo Yao doesn''t have to be accused of stagnating. The fact of the great victory is that no one in the imperial court can deny that the enemy has killed more than 100000.


    Therefore, if Fang Xie wants to avoid Luo Yao, he must go north.


    But now the biggest problem facing Fang Xie is that he already has 5000 troops in his hands. As long as he deals with them carefully on the territory of the rebels, self-protection is not a problem. But among the 5000 people, shanziying has almost been loyal to him. Huang Yang Dao''s Minyong didn''t want to travel far away from home. They didn''t dissolve and follow Fang Xie in order to protect their homes. If Fang Xie took them to langrushan to take refuge with the king of Xujun, these four thousand people may not be able to maintain the respect Fang Xie won with great difficulty.


    At present, it is not just the rebels who are in trouble in the northwest. Relatively speaking, bandits are more harmful to the people. After losing their homes, many kind-hearted people began to embark on a road they once hated and resented. The refugees turned into bandits and looted the people in other places.


    In fact, Li Yuanshan has been restraining his subordinates. He wants long-term stability rather than temporary interests. If the people hate the rebels, he can''t stand on his feet. But at the beginning, the power expanded too fast, and it was difficult to achieve restraint. The rebels are robbing and the bandits are robbing. The situation is already like this. It is impossible to move back for a while.


    That''s why Fang Xie chose Mangdangshan.


    Mangdangshan is not far from the huangniu River, and the resistance of the county soldiers on Huangyang road will not be too strong. Mount Mangdang is big enough. It''s not easy for Luo Yao''s people to find him. The rebels who lack food supplies will not go into the mountains. They need to loot new places to replenish.


    Fang Xie''s mind is not idle at all these days. He has been calculating how to go every step of the way. He can''t see too far. He can''t see the day after tomorrow, but he can see tomorrow.


    "Let''s rest in the mountains for a few days."


    Fang Xie unfolded the map, looked at it and said, "Yin Po Shan''s men and horses retreated near the qinghekou. Luo Yao didn''t send troops to press. If there was no accident, most of Luo Yao''s men and horses would still return to Huangyang road. The internal guard secretly inquired about the news that Xinkou warehouse had been robbed by Ye Jinnan''s army. I guess there might be a large team of men and horses from Yongzhou."


    "Why?"


    Zhuo Buyi asked.


    "What is Luo Yao''s purpose in plotting xinkouchang?"


    "It must be grain and grass."


    "Why?"


    "It goes without saying that there must be not enough food in Yongzhou... Do you mean that Luo Yao wants to transfer the place for raising troops from Yongzhou to Huangyang road?"


    "Well"


    Fang Xie nodded: "Although the roads in the southwest are rich, they are poor. The strength of Yongzhou is just enough to support Luo Yao''s 5000 heavy cavalry. The combat power of heavy cavalry is beyond doubt, but it is something that burns money. The southwest is the foundation of Luo Yao, and Luo Yao dare not force it too hard. If you increase the tax on the southwest and scrape the land to support the army, the gain is not worth the loss. But Luo Yao not only has heavy cavalry camp, but also light cavalry camp No one knows how many huge troops there are. "


    "Moreover, after all, Yongzhou is too remote. It is already the southwest border of the great Sui Dynasty. Whether it is to move to the northwest or to other places, Huangyang road is far more suitable than Yongzhou. You can go straight to the Yangtze River along the huangniu River and pass the Yangtze River smoothly..."


    Chen Dongshan didn''t adapt to this topic for the first time, so he didn''t speak and his face was a little ugly.


    Fang Xie patted him on the shoulder and said: "The reason why I don''t avoid you is that I can trust you. You should know that even if Luo Yao is strong, he will face a more powerful empire. Even if the emperor doesn''t want three roads in the northwest, he can''t give up the southwest. At that time, the imperial court will try its best to deal with Luo Yao, and Zuo Qianwei may not be able to win every battle. How many people will die and how many families will be destroyed. In fact, you I know in my heart. "


    Chen Moshan nodded, still not knowing what to say.


    "In fact, when I came out with Shanzi camp, didn''t I want to live more lives?"


    Fang Xie was silent for a moment and said, "even if Luo Yao has a million troops, he has only the support of the southwest roads. Sooner or later, when his financial resources are exhausted, the big Sui Dynasty is so huge that the back strength of the imperial court is far greater than that of the left avant-garde. If Luo Yao really reverses, I don''t think he can succeed."


    "That''s why I''m trying to get away from the left avant-garde."


    "The general is right..."


    Chen Qianshan sighed: "just the soldiers of Shanzi camp and their families are almost in Yongzhou. If the war really starts, I don''t know how long it will take to go back."


    Fang Xie can understand his mind: "Look, I always think your majesty can''t be a little wary of the left avant-garde. It is said that the imperial court has mobilized 300000 soldiers, millions of people have been promoted, and your majesty has personally enlisted... Does your majesty really think that people''s courage is better than soldiers? There are at least hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Jiangnan, and these people and horses can be mobilized long ago. Why not?"


    Chen Moshan was stunned: "the general means that your majesty has been arranging countermeasures for a long time? You don''t have to fight in the West because your majesty deliberately keeps people and horses against the southwest?"


    "No one can despise the emperor."


    I don''t know why, Fang Xie repeated again: "no one can!"


    ……


    ……


    Yongzhou


    Zhan Yao looked at the secret letter in his hand and couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief: "when the order goes down, people and horses from all walks of life gather to drive towards Huangyang road. The general has won Xinkou warehouse, so there''s no need to worry about the problem of grain and grass. The southwest roads can''t afford millions of troops, but one Xinkou warehouse has enough food for millions of troops for ten or even decades!"


    His general Lei roller asked excitedly, "general, how many people do we have?"


    Zhan Yao burned the secret letter, remained silent for a moment and replied, "Li Yuanshan has been planning in the Northwest for ten years. Now his troops are no less than 1.5 million, although most of them are mobs. Is it not as good as Li Yuanshan for the great general''s twenty years in Yongzhou?"


    Although he didn''t make it clear, ray roller understood.


    "My God!"


    Lei roller was surprised and said, "a million troops, now the imperial court''s troops are dealing with Li Yuanshan in the northwest. Where can we spare troops? As long as we left avant-garde millions of troops go north, I''m afraid we can reach Chang''an City in a short time!"


    "Left avant-garde..."


    Zhan Yao shook his head slowly: "it seems that the name should be changed at that time."


    "The people in the imperial court are expected to move."


    Zhan Yao said contemptuously, "people like Li Yuanshan dare to claim to be the king of the West. Can''t the great general be the king? There are people talking about the great general in the court. At this point, if the emperor doesn''t make the great general king, I''m afraid those courtiers won''t agree. If the great general is the king, Zuo Qianwei won''t be the people of the court."


    "General, if you come to see us, will we cross the Yangtze River directly to Chang''an or enter the south of the Yangtze River?"


    "If I, I''ll call Chang''an."


    Zhan Yaodao: "Gyeonggi road is empty, and Chang''an city is orthodox."


    "My subordinates feel that the south of the Yangtze River is rich and the Yangtze River is a natural graben. If we fight down the south of the Yangtze River first, then operate for a few years, and then wave the army north at that time, it will be a great event!"


    "You''re wrong."


    Zhan Yaodao: "No one can despise the man sitting on the Dragon chair. The general has said this more than once. How many years have you run Jiangnan? If the emperor calms down the northwest, or if the emperor doesn''t care about the northwest at all, but mobilizes all his people against us, we have time to run Jiangnan safely? Jiangnan is so easy to fight? Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are there , no general is a waste. "


    "The general will not give the emperor a few years."


    Lei roller nodded: "it''s too shallow for his subordinates."


    Zhan Yao said: "the aristocratic families in the world recognize not the local heroes but the orthodoxy in the world. Even if the great general''s army conquers the whole Jiangnan, those aristocratic families will not sincerely obey. But if the great general takes charge of Chang''an City, they will immediately announce their surrender, Chang''an... That''s the symbol of the emperor."


    Just then, the soldier came in and leaned over and said, "young general, please go over and discuss business."


    "Young general?"


    Zhan Yao frowned and felt inexplicably tight in his heart.


    "What do you know?"


    "I don''t know. I just said I would invite you to have a drink in Yonghe building."


    "I see."


    Zhan Yao nodded, got up and walked out. When he came to the door, he suddenly stopped, turned back and said to Lei roller, "let me wait outside Yonghe building."


    "General?"


    Lei roller was puzzled: "why?"


    "Young general..."


    Zhan Yao''s mind is full of questions. Young general Luo Wen is more and more different from the past. Since the great general Luo Yao left Yongzhou, young general Luo Yao has been patrolling all battalions with his own soldiers. Although the great general didn''t order Luo Wen to have the right to mobilize people, he is a major general after all. After all, he is the only son of the great general.


    For months, Rowan even went to other counties to comfort the soldiers. These days, the soldiers'' impression of him has greatly changed. The young dandy seemed to suddenly mature.


    This should have been a good thing, but Zhan Yao was more and more insecure. He always felt that there was something secret in Rowan''s heart, and even he vaguely felt that Rowan seemed to be plotting something.


    "Do it."


    He waved his hand and walked out quickly.


    Yonghe building


    Rowan stood at the window and watched people coming and going in the street outside. I don''t know why, there was a smile on his mouth.


    "Big freedom... You are greedy for the scenery on the big snow mountain and think that it is the highest place, even if you can never climb up. You are the second highest person in the world. You just deceive yourself and others. Do you know what is the most beautiful scenery? You think I am afraid of you when I escape from the snow mountain? Wrong... I just let you know that the high place is not on the big snow mountain."


    When he saw Zhan Yao riding his horse to this side in the street, the smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger.


    "What is the best part of life?"


    He asked.


    There was only himself in the room, so he answered only himself.


    "Long life, I have done it. Great freedom, you will always be just a dog of the Ming king. And I will be equal to the Ming king one day! I can grow as long as the years like him. Why can''t I surpass him?"
