Chapter 973: King Zhao’s personal expedition (2)(2/2)
Yang Qingyuan is a traitor to the country and a thief who has brought disaster to the country.
Doesn't Emperor Linde also have a problem as Yang Qingyuan's disciple?
In this way, the legitimacy of Emperor Linde's throne will naturally be shaken. Then he will reverse the case for Emperor Xizongli, eliminating the legitimacy of the Thirteenth Emperor from the root.
If the throne of the Thirteen Emperors is not upright, it is natural that they must be rectified.
The former Emperor Taizongwen had no legitimate son, and the remaining princes were all unlikely to become great treasures. Naturally, it was necessary to select virtuous and virtuous people from the royal branch to inherit the great treasure.
If you don’t plan for the eternity, you can’t plan for the moment; if you don’t plan for the overall situation, you can’t plan for a region.
Both King Zhao and Du Yan had long-term considerations.
Du Yan on the side saw King Zhao and made the decision to conquer personally in a moment, confirming once again that he had not misjudged the person.
This kind of courage and wisdom can never be compared to the indecisive, submissive and unassertive Emperor Linde in the capital of the gods.
King Zhao is the one to whom destiny belongs.
As the order of King Zhao's personal expedition was issued, the various institutions of King Zhao's Mansion began to operate.
Sending an army to war is not a simple matter. It is not a matter of just giving an order and then being done.
The transmission of orders, the order of departure of the army, the supply of food and grass, and the selection of routes all need to be considered.
On a normal day, it would take at least three days for an army of 100,000 men to break out of camp and go on an expedition.
But King Zhao has already prepared these matters.
Just three days ago, King Zhao completed the digestion of King Ning's power and completely controlled the elite cavalry of the three guards of Wuliangha in his hands, and his power expanded again.
He originally planned to send his troops south and directly capture Qizhou and Qingzhou.
Qizhou and Qingzhou are vast plains. King Zhao's cavalry has no rivals on the land of Qilu. If you capture Qingzhou and Qizhou, you can see Xuzhou in the distance.
King Zhao then occupied nearly one-third of the Zhou Dynasty.
But now because of Qiu Fu's defeat, King Zhao changed his original strategy and divided the current army into three.
The first was led by General Wang Zhen, who continued the previous strategy of Qizhou and occupied Qingzhou and Qizhou with the advantage of cavalry.
This place has a long history and is home to the Confucius Mansion, with many prominent families.
They were resistant to the imperial court's national policy of returning land to the country by dividing the land into acres.
Land is the lifeblood of their families.
The cabinet headed by Wang Hua wanted to carry out reforms in accordance with Yang Qingyuan's ideas, but only completed some pilot projects in Gyeonggi and Yangzhou.
When the cabinet wanted to promote it to Qingqi, it encountered fierce resistance.
As long as King Zhao can obtain the support of these wealthy families, it is not difficult to win Qing and Qi states.
On the second line, 50,000 elite troops were assigned to support Zhang Shimei.
He is currently the main attacking force, and he wants to bite the main force of Cao Xueyang's Longwu Army in the Jinyang direction.
Fortunately, the Longwu Army in Jinyang City are all newly trained troops by Cao Xueyang and cannot be compared with the veterans of the Longwu Army under Zhao Tianlin.
Even though Cao Xueyang had more troops than Zhang Shimei, he did not take the initiative to ask for a battle.
In order to be on the safe side and prevent Zhang Shimei and Zhu Shihong from overturning the situation, King Zhao specially sent 50,000 additional troops to them.
The last group was led by King Zhao himself, and the three guards of Wuliangha and part of King Zhao's army, together with 100,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry, headed towards Bingzhou.
At the same time, King Zhao sent an order to Li Yuan and Wang Cong, the temporary coaches at this time, to lead their troops to retreat.
