- Liyang Ferry.
The five-toothed ship stands impressively, the five-story ship is a head taller than the head of Liyang City in the distance.
The brand-new poles and crossbows on the outer periphery are shining brightly. The big flag with the character Zhao and Li Chongjiu's imperial flag were erected on the big ship, flying high.
Surrounded by more than a hundred staff and generals, Li Chongjiu, dressed in a dragon robe, walked towards the battleship on the dock. Navy Commander Cheng Mingzhen led the navy generals to personally greet him on the shore.
"Your Majesty, Cheng Mingzhen, wishes to greet you. Long live my emperor!" All the soldiers on board the Five-Tooth Battleship said in unison.
Li Chongjiu nodded and said: "Pingshen."
Cheng Minzhen stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the five-toothed ship is ready. The ministers and 12,000 naval officers are at your command at any time."
Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "Cheng Qing said there is no need to be polite. I will listen to you when it comes to military matters, and I will listen to you when it comes to matters on the ship. Just go ahead and do it. Everything on the ship is up to you. You don't need to come and inform me!"
After hearing Li Chongjiu¡¯s words, Cheng Mingzhen clasped his fists and said, ¡°A certain general will obey the order!¡±
After saying that, Li Chongjiu and Cheng Mingzhen boarded the ship together. After Cheng Minzhen gave an order, the battleship immediately set sail.
After the Wuya warship slowly raised its sails, it immediately sailed southward in the canal.
There are already eight large ships surrounding the Wuya ship, which serve as frigates to guard the safety of the flagship. In addition to the large ship, there were dozens of small ships advancing with the ship, and there were several mail ships in the middle to convey military information. One mile behind the fleet, following the ship were Li Chongjiu's Royal Guards. The soldiers were sitting on the troop carrier. In addition, there were countless baggage ships following the troop carrier.
The navy¡¯s route was to enter the Yellow River from the Yongji Canal, then go straight upstream and land directly at Heyang. This takes about three days of water journey.
As the fleet progressed, the five-toothed ship became Li Chongjiu's temporary command and operations center. In the past, family members were not allowed to accompany the army, but this time during the attack on Li Tang, someone inexplicably reminded Li Chongjiu that Li Shimin had plans to assassinate Li Zhiwan.
Although Li Chongjiu didn't know who reminded him, he was worried in his heart, so he took Yang Ehuang, Li Zhiwan, Shi Deyun, and Su Miao with him, as well as his eldest son Li Ying and his eldest daughter Caiwei, who also accompanied him on the boat. And advance.
On this temporarily commanded flagship, the fifth floor was a place of vigilance and observation, the fourth floor was where Li Chongjiu¡¯s concubines stayed, and the third floor was where Li Chongjiu and the ministers discussed the battle.
As for the second floor, the first floor is where the three hundred guards and sailors on the ship are stationed.
Outside the third deck, the view is clear. Looking to the shore, there is a steady stream of Zhao Army cavalry troops advancing from the rear. The river water under the boat has turned khaki, and it has obviously entered the Yellow River Basin.
Li Chongjiu returned his gaze to the cabin from a distance, and saw Ji Chuan, Zhang Xuansu, and Yu Shinan, the three ministers of Zhongshu, summarizing and analyzing the news sent by the Rumors Department and Zhao Jun's front line. A dozen staff members are drawing maps, which will be carried out by each army at any time. The distribution of troops and horses, and the places where grain and grass are stored are all carefully drawn on the sand table.
As for the six Zhongshushe people, all of them came to accompany him this time, such as Xue Deyin, Wang Bo and other Zhongshushe people. Naturally, they were used to serve the imperial edict, write official documents, and the orders were issued by the imperial edict. In the entire combat center, everyone was quiet and working in an orderly manner. The only sound was the flipping of official documents.
With so many people working hard, Li Chongjiu is actually free. For general matters, an excellent staff team such as Ji Chuan, Zhang Xuansu, and Yu Shinan can make decisions for him. Therefore, Li Chongjiu was happy and relaxed, and spent most of his time sitting there with his eyes closed and meditating.
Of course, there is another person in the room who doesn¡¯t know how to deal with himself. This is Li Ying, the prince secretly designated by Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu brought Li Ying here this time, naturally to let him gain experience. Although I have given Li Ying a lot of training, Li Ying has still been trapped in the palace since he was a child. Li Chongjiu didn't want him to grow up among women, so he brought Li Ying to see her this time.
But the art of war and strategies, as well as some intelligence information that sounds like a heavenly book, are difficult for Li Ying, who is only ten years old, to understand. At the beginning of the day, Li Ying was restless, sitting on the small bench and suffering. Li Chongjiu didn't care about him, just to see what he would do next.
But after the second day, Li Chongjiu discovered that Li Ying was particularly interested in the sand table map.
This sand table map covers Guanzhong, Hanoi, Hexi, and Sichuan. It is very large, almost as big as four billiard tables. There are mountains, rivers, important towns, and military deployments piled up in proportion.
After Li Ying saw this, he stared blankly and watched Li Chongjiu's staff working on the sand table, moving the soldiers and horses one by one.
? ???Chongjiu looked at it and stepped forward and asked Li Ying: "Do you understand?"
Li Ying pointed at the map and said: "Chang'an, I know. Master told me that this is the capital of Li Tang, and Luoyang, which is the companion capital of our great Zhao. I don't recognize the others."
Li Chongjiu smiled and nodded after hearing this, pointing to the mountain range rising in the center of the map and saying: "You are pretty good at recognizing these. Look, this is the Qinling Mountains. To the south of the Qinling Mountains is Sichuan and Shu, the land of abundance. The road to Shu is difficult to climb up to the sky. To the north It is the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, where the Guanhe River and the four fortresses are the place where King Wen of Zhou Dynasty Fengming Qishan was located, Xianyang of the Qin State, where Liu Bang laid the foundation for his hegemony!"
At this point, Li Chongjiu pointed to the river on the map, divided in the center: "To the west of Qinchuan is the source of the river, the source of the Yellow River. You see, the Yellow River runs from west to east, like a belt, running through the lapel of my Chinese clothes. This The mountains and rivers are so beautiful!"
Hearing Li Chongjiu¡¯s words, Li Ying couldn¡¯t help but reach out and touch the sand table. The staff were afraid that Li Ying would mess up their hard work, but they couldn¡¯t speak.
Li Chongjiu smiled, took Li Ying's hand and said, "What are you touching?"
Li Ying raised his head and looked at Li Chongjiu and said: "Father, I heard you say this. Thinking about this world, it seems as if it is just an inch above the sand table, and finally appeared in my mind. And this military and horse dispatching , just like the chess pieces on the chessboard when playing chess on weekdays. Master once told me that my father uses the world as his chess piece, so that¡¯s probably it!¡±
Li Chongjiu nodded in approval. Li Ying had a good understanding and his words were not in vain.
Li Chongjiu smiled and said nothing more at the moment. Next, Li Ying looked at the sand table, and then listened to Li Chongjiu and his staff discussing the attack on the Tang Dynasty with a vague understanding.
And this time to attack Li Tang, the big strategy has been conceived after a year of preparation. Li Shimin made three or four strategies on how to advance the army and how to respond. r1152 - Didn't finish reading?
