Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Second No Effort
To be honest, Li Chuyun's brain circuit has made the elites of the Privy Council unable to keep up.
What does it mean? A surprise attack on Jiangling? If you find the reason, you will fight. Besides, even if you want to fight, shouldn’t Murong Yanzhao give orders for such a big thing?
Now Murong Yanzhao is drinking and having fun with the envoys of Jingnan and talking about the friendship between the two countries. You don’t even say a word, and ask your master to directly confiscate the base camp. Isn’t this a slap Murong Yanzhao in the face? Who are you two are the head coach and the military supervisor?
Sun Yue sighed secretly when she heard this, but didn't say much. All this was exactly the same as in history. Li Chuyun was completely crazy in order to compete for merit with Murong Yanzhao.
Is it necessary to attack Jingnan in the Song Dynasty? Just kidding, Murong Yanzhao took action by himself. If the small Jiangling City can last for three days, it is considered that the people of Jingnan are good at fighting. If you want to be a hooligan, why should you play a fake way to destroy Guo? The problem of the Song Dynasty is not that it cannot be defeated. The reason and excuse of the Song Dynasty!
Now, people have met all the requirements of the Celestial Kingdom and sent Uncle Wang out respectfully. The coach is drinking with them himself. Your damn suddenly wants to play a surprise attack. Isn’t this a lunatic!
Don’t think that excuses are not important. There is a political correctness issue here. You must know the Five Dynasties and Eleven Kingdoms! Except for Meng Chang, who didn’t kneel down and lick the Song Dynasty? Zhao Kuangyin withdrew from the Yangtze River a few years ago. Although the main reason was that he was afraid that the Khitan would raid his nest, there was indeed some reason and he could not find an excuse.
Even when fighting the Southern Tang Dynasty, it is still important to have a reputation. Is it necessary to fight in a small country in Jingnan? Or is it under the premise that others kneel on the ground to serve you? What do you think of other countries and small governors such as Wu Yue, Southern Han, and Southern Tang that paid tribute to the Song Dynasty? Your Song Dynasty, the sect leader, is fartful!
But Li Chuyun no longer cared about this. He was a deputy envoy of the Privy Councilor, at least a civil servant, and this political wise man could not be without, but he really ignored it. During the days when Sun Yue was away, he and Murong Yanzhao had almost no time to quarrel with Murong Yanzhao. What made him feel extremely frustrated was that not to mention Murong Yanzhao's direct descendants Shannan Army and the Xiang Army who came to help in the war, the two imperial guards he personally brought did not take him seriously. Except for these colleagues in the Privy Council, he could not even find a general who supported him.
After all, Murong Yanzhao's prestige in the army was too high, and the soldiers of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms were used to ignoring the military supervision.
Li Chuyun was dissatisfied with this. He couldn't understand why a semi-paralyzed commander who was about to die of illness made the soldiers so devoted? Do these soldiers don't know who is the prime minister of the empire and who is the official's heart?
This is not a conflict between him and Murong Yanzhao. This is a conflict between the policy of emphasizing culture and over military affairs in the four years since the founding of the Song Dynasty and the habit of becoming a strong martial artist for decades in the Five Dynasties. So he went a little crazy.
He wants a victory that has nothing to do with Murong Yanzhao, but only his own, and is full of joy! He wants to defeat Jing Nan directly before Murong Yanzhao can react. Today is his chance.
He ordered that those who disobeyed should engage in military law.
So, Murong Yanzhao, who was drinking beautifully with Gao Baoyin at the banquet, suddenly heard that Li Chuyun had led thousands of people to raid. He was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
On the other side, Li Chuyun led a vote of imperial guards to run towards Jiangling City.
In fact, the timing of the sneak attack by Li Chuyun and others was not particularly good. A distance of 100 miles was also the safe distance reserved by Gao Jichong for himself. After all, it was his base camp. You have been rushing for 100 miles, and you still hope that others would not be able to notice it? At most, it would be a little hasty in the fight.
Li Chuyun didn't care, and he never thought about fighting a good fight.
Anyone who thinks he is a pure scholar would be very wrong. In fact, he is a general and now he is a civil servant. By chance, he is a real mistake. His father Li Zhao was the Situ, the prosecutor of the Later Tang Dynasty. When he was fighting Dingzhou, he met the Khitan. Li Zhao led his army to cut off the queen and died. When he was young, he moved to Kaifeng. When he was young, he happened to catch up with Yelu Deguang to go south. History says that he was the only one in the inner gate, shooting and killing more than a dozen people. After fighting for a day and a night, the soldiers retreated, but their family was unscathed.
Think about his son who dared to fight alone in Yelu Xiu Ge. Is Li Chuyun still afraid of hard fighting? This is a huge joke. He wishes that there would be a bloody battle that would almost die and live to embellish his life's glory and leave his name in history.
But, he was disappointed again.
When he came to Jiangling City, he was stunned. It was not because of the solemn military formations of Jiangling City, which were as strong as iron walls.
On the contrary, what he saw was the city gate that was completely opened, and Gao Jichong, who led the civil and military officials of the court, with a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, and respectfully waited outside the city!
What's going on?
Li Chuyun couldn't help but ask Gao Jichong coldly: "What are you doing?"
Gao Jichong smiled bitterly and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I heard that the king's army is coming from afar, and I went out of the city to greet me. All the gold, silver and wealth in the treasury in Jiangling City are here. Xiao Wang wishes to send all the troops to the king's army. I only ask the king's army, don't go into the city to disturb my people."
Gao Jichong was helpless. After hearing the news of Li Chuyun's surprise attack, he was completely helpless. Should he resist? It seemed that he should be resisting. He still had an army of 30,000, and 30,000 against Murong Yanzhao. It may not be impossible to last for a few days by borrowing the city wall, let alone Li Chuyun who came from the light cavalry.
But what's the point? He has been established in Jingnan for decades and has never relied on weapons.
He firmly believed that Zhao Kuangyin, the new emperor of the Song Dynasty, was shameless. All kinds of evidence showed that this emperor was shameless. I was so respectful that I just wanted to lick the soil on your shoes. Do you still have to be resolute to me and kill them all?
Chai Rong and Li Cunxu seemed to be so shameless. Please treat me as a fart and let me go.
Perhaps, if Zhao Kuangyin had personally conquered, his plan would have really been done, because Zhao Kuangyin was first an emperor, a politician, and then a military strategist, and he was indeed more shameful than Chai Rong and Li Cunxu.
However, Li Chuyun didn't want any face.
"You stand here and don't go anywhere. Commander Murong will arrive later. Han Chongxun and Sun Yue, you two will be optimistic about them here, especially the gold, silver, money and silk behind you. If anyone has any abnormal movement, he will be killed without mercy! The soldiers, follow me into the city!"
