"General Dou obeyed the order and was in charge of the heavens. The emperor ordered that Fang La rebelled, and I specially ordered General Dou to lead his troops to Zhouyang to gather... to assist General Li Tianrun, the auxiliary country, to quell the rebellion."

"I received the order." After listening to the eunuch's reading of the order, Wang Han said loudly, taking the order with both hands.

There was no surprise at all that he was not the leader. Wang Han knew that Song Huizong would never be able to give the command of the army to him.

"Why is our general not the commander?" After sending away the eunuch who was proclaiming the imperial edict, Lu Zhishen shouted first. Wang Han was also the general, but now there is a general who is half a level higher than Wang Han, who has become the commander.

"Lu Da, don't talk nonsense." Upon hearing this, Wu Yong quickly scolded Lu Zhishen. Lu Zhishen didn't know the situation, could he not know the situation? Don't just complain a few times, but if Lu Zhishen's words were spread, Wang Han would be caught in the misunderstandings of those who are interested.

"Okay, what can you do if you are the commander of multiple generals in the country? You still have to fight tough battles that should be fought, and you can't get rid of your contributions. Although you are half a level higher than me, you are all generals, and he can't cover the sky with just one hand. I'm happy to be idle. You all go down and prepare, adjust your state, and go to Daozhou Yang to meet." Wang Han said with a smile.

After thinking for a while, Wang Han ordered Yang Zhi: "Yang Zhi, you should first drop the cavalry and advance. Along the way, you will lead the cavalry to buy all the carriages and chariots that you can buy. Even if you can't buy the horses, even if you pay twice the extra money, you will have to buy the carriage. I have great use."

Wang Han was sure that his army must be used as cannon fodder to fight tough battles. Under the guidance of the court, the difficult bones must be his own. I am afraid that it will not be his turn to fight in a place that is easy to fight. However, Wang Han didn't want to be so simple as the court's wishes, and he really gave up those soft persimmon lands.

——————————

After arriving at Zhou Yang and the 80,000 troops of General Li Tianrun, Wang Han realized that the quell of Fang La uprising was not only attacking from one direction, but surrounding and attacking from four directions: Zhou Yang, Jiangling Prefecture, Qingxi County, and Zhou Qin.

But it is true. If you only attack from one direction, wouldn’t it drive the rebellion from one place to another? Even if it can be eliminated, it will take more trouble and affect the place.

Attacking from four directions, there were nearly 300,000 troops in total. The other three directions were not commanded by the general, but ordinary third-rank or fourth-rank generals. The court placed the only two generals and 130,000 troops in the same direction, which shows the intention of checking and balancing the king and Han.

Among the four attack directions, Zhou Yang is the farthest away from Zhouhang. After looking at the map, Wang Han knew that he would fight the most and hardest battles. He had to attack seven places along the way, including Zhourun, Dantu, Zhouchang, Zhousu, Changshu, Kunqu, and Zhouxiu, to reach the coastal Hangzhou.

Although it is the 130,000 army of two generals, and they may not have to fight them all by themselves, under the guidance of the court, the hardest part will definitely be their own. In the end, the court will not look at the tough battles they have fought, but how many places they have pacified. In this way, the contributions they have made will definitely be reduced a lot.

Jiangling Prefecture attacked Zhouyi, Zhouhu, Deqing and a pass to record four places.

The other two routes are Zhong Shidao leading troops to attack from Zhouqin and Song Jiang leading troops to attack from Qingxi County. There are almost three or four places to attack, and then they can attack Zhouhang.

However, Wang Han didn't care about this. Suppressing the rebellion was just a small fight. His subordinates were all elite soldiers and powerful generals. What Wang Han really cared about was the war after the rebellion was quelled.

However, although Wang Han didn't care, he would not be bullied by others. It was not so easy for the court to ask General Li Tianrun, the State General, to pick up soft persimmons and give credit to him. Wang Han had 12,000 cavalry under his command, and there were more than 15,000 idle horses, all of which were loaded with simple carriages, which could carry the remaining 38,000 infantry and basic combat equipment. If you want to pick up soft persimmons, it depends on whether the General of General of the State General was fast enough. Being able to catch up with him was considered his ability.

As for food and grass, blitzkrieg does not require much food and grass to carry, and the essence of fighting is to support the war.

Wang Han was looking forward to the time when the general of the country was rewarded on merits and the time when he only had stable achievements but no military achievements, Song Huizong's expression would have been very exciting at that time. If possible, Wang Han wanted to fight alone to conquer Xiazhouhang.
