Chapter 383 : Do you want to continue going north?

After defeating the Zhao army, Yue Fei did not take the opportunity to raise troops to the north, but chose to store troops in Chenliu County. Although Zhang Chuan was defeated, the Zhao State was strong. As the saying goes, a centipede is dead but not stiff, and he wanted to defeat Zhao State in one fell swoop. It is unrealistic, it can only be realized by slowly weakening and encroaching, and now not only Deng is fighting with Zhao, but also Qin and Chu. Now Qin and Chu have not made any substantial progress. There is no need for Deng Guo to rush so fast. Besides, the three counties of Xinde still need time to digest. If they swallow it but cannot digest it, it will be ridiculous.

Chenliu County, Liang County, and Chen County are all important places in the Central Plains. Chenliu County and Liang County were the large production areas of Wei State in the past, and Chen County was the essence of the old Chen State. To get these three counties, for Deng State, it is the same as laying down the whole country. Jiangdong's gains are comparable, all of this is enough for Deng Guo to digest slowly, and the matter of weakening Zhao Guo should be left to Qin and Chu first. As for how far Qin and Chu can weaken Zhao Guo, that is Yue Fei couldn't control that much anymore.

In the 22nd year of Qianyuan, on April 25th, the fifth day after Zhao Jun was defeated, Zhang Chuan led the remaining troops to Yuanju City. In the battle five days ago, Zhao Jun really suffered too much loss. There are only less than 15 left in the [-] army. This loss is no less than Sima Chong's defeat in Huishan, and it is even worse than the defeat in Huishan. Nearly [-] troops were lost, but none of Zhao's giants died in battle. But now, three veterans, Chen Kai, Zhao Qing, and Huang Fuming, have died on the battlefield one after another.

If Zhang Chuan could bear the loss of soldiers and horses, then the deaths of Chen Kai, Zhao Qing, and Huangfu Ming were a big blow to Zhang Chuan. Chen Kai, Zhao Qing, and Huangfu Ming were not just Zhao Guojun. The veterans in the army are also Zhang Chuan's die-hard supporters. Zhang Chuan can secure the throne of General Zhao, except for Zhao Xin's death, it is all thanks to the support of these veterans.

Among the generals in Zhao Guojun, they are basically divided into four camps. One is the young generation headed by Li Rubing, who is full of vigor and has a promising future. The other is the camp headed by Sima Chong. This camp has gathered a group of veterans. The camp headed by Zhang Chuan has also gathered a group of veterans, and the three of Chen Kai are the pillars among them. The last one is the neutral faction headed by Le Yun. , Xin Zhao died, unless the King Zhao himself gave the order.Otherwise, no one can easily command them. They are a transcendent existence in Zhao Guojun, representing the highest level of Zhao Guo's combat power, and the best of them are Tu Gao and Zheng Tuo.

Chen Kai, Zhao Qing, and Huangfuming were killed in battle, which dealt a fatal blow to Zhang Chuan's forces. In addition to the loss of one hundred thousand troops, Zhang Chuan could imagine that when he returned to Jinyang, he would I'm afraid it's hard to say how he will be pulled down from the throne of the general, and with the death of Chen Kai and the three of them, Zhang Chuan has also lost the core force to suppress Sima Chong. Will Sima Chong listen to him in the future? It's hard to say, if the two camps of veterans fight among themselves, it will give Li Rubing and the younger generation a chance to take the lead.

"General, the battle report has been drawn up. If there is no problem, I will send someone to Jinyang to send it to Jinyang!" Zhao Junjun Lin Qingfeng came to Zhang Chuan and said with a newly prepared battle report in his hand. .

Zhang Chuan glanced casually, then sighed, and said, "Military division, that's it. Send it back to Jinyang without missing a single word!"

"General, if this battle report is sent to Jinyang, I am afraid that the situation of the general will be very difficult!" Lin Qingfeng said to Zhang Chuan with some hesitation. A military adviser, Zuo Sheng, had always been Zhao Xin's right-hand man. He had always had a good relationship with Zhang Chuan. Although he was not satisfied with Zhang Chuan's control of Zhao's military power, he didn't have any opinions. Except for Zhao Xin In addition to Xin's will, what's more, Lin Qingfeng doesn't like Li Rubing. Li Rubing is too sharp. Such a person is likely to bring disaster to Zhao Guo.

"Let's post it. The general will know the situation in the future, but at least for now, if Deng Jun has not retreated, the court will not move the position of the general for a day. As for the future, let's talk about it later!" Zhang Chuan Helplessly, what will happen to his situation in the future?Zhang Chuan also understood very well in his heart, but he was already powerless. After all, he lost too badly this time. It's not easy to move, at least not now.

Lin Qingfeng nodded, understood Zhang Chuan's meaning, then went out, sent a fast horse to Jinyang to send a message, and urged the general to strengthen his defenses to prevent Deng Jun from attacking again.

At the same time, in Jiyang City, Deng Jun launched a fierce debate, and the topic of the debate was whether to continue to go north and try to seize a lot of land now that he had won a big victory. Although Deng Sheng's order was to take Chenliu County, The three counties of Chen Jun and Liang Jun, but also said that if the situation permits, Yue Fei can choose whether to continue to go north at his discretion, and he doesn't even need to report.

The radical faction headed by Chang Yuchun, Murong Ke, Li Siye, Ma Chao, and Qin Lie advocated continuing to go north, seeking Jiyin County and Dongjun County, pushing the border of Deng State to the line of the Yellow River, threatening Hebei, the core area of ​​Zhao State, and Han Conservatives headed by Qing, Zhang Liao, Xue Rengui, and Deng Ai advocate sticking to what they have gained. Now Zhao Guo is still very powerful. It is of no benefit to Deng Guo to rush to push the border to the Yellow River and face Zhao Guo's core area. .

"General, now that our army has won consecutive battles and won three counties, it is a great opportunity to attack the Central Plains in one go. As long as our army can seize the opportunity, we can take Dongjun and Jiyin counties, and even Zhao Guo Completely rush back to Hebei!" In the tent of the Chinese army, Chang Yuchun said to Yue Fei excitedly, he is the leader of the current radical faction, and Chang Yuchun has always been adventurous, as long as the reward is big, he will not He didn't dare to do anything, and his proposition was supported by a group of generals.

But the conservative faction headed by Han Qing didn't think so. Han Qing came out and said: "General Chang's words are wrong. Although our army won a big victory in this battle, our own losses are still very large. Zhao Jun Although defeated, there are still no less than 20 Zhao troops in the Central Plains. Just Zhang Chuan's troops stationed in Yuanju City, our army is helpless, and this time the task given to us by the king It’s also finished, so I suggest to accept it as soon as it’s good, if Zhao Guo is really enraged, it will only end up taking advantage of Qin Chu for nothing.”

Although the Three Kingdoms are now attacking Zhao, it is Deng Jun who is really the main force. So far, Qin Jun has been unable to advance an inch in Shangjun and Shangdang, and was blocked by Zhao Jun. The strength is limited, and it can't make any progress at all. In the end, Zhao Guo will only target Deng Guo. Once Deng and Zhao start a series of battles, it will be an unprecedented loss for both countries, and Qin will even take the opportunity to counterattack. And Han Qing's proposition was also supported by a large number of generals. Suddenly, in the big tent of the Chinese army, except for Yue Fei, Pang Tong, Kuai Li, and Yao Guangxiao who sat firmly, the rest of the generals started to quarrel with each other.

Looking at the noisy crowd, Yue Fei couldn't help feeling a headache. In fact, Yue Fei was also very embarrassed about whether to continue going north. On the one hand, the current situation is very good, and continuing to go north will surely achieve greater results, but if Zhao Guo is really angered, Putting the elite of the whole country into the Central Plains, even if Deng Jun can win in the end, it will only be a miserable victory. It is hard to say whether he will have the strength to control Chu and suppress Qin in the future, so out of overall considerations, Yue Fei should not continue go north.

"Do the three military advisers have any opinions? Let's hear it!" Finally, Yue Fei, unable to make a choice, cast his eyes on the three wise men, Pang Tong, Kuai Li, and Yao Guangxiao, hoping to come up with a feasible solution.

Hearing Yue Fei's roll call, the three of Pang Tong looked at each other, and then Yao Guangxiao said with a wry smile: "General, there are advantages and disadvantages to continuing to advance north. I can't tell you clearly, since that's the case, why not send someone to Wancheng to ask the opinion of the king and the court lords!"

This is the final consensus of the three military advisers, that is, the current situation is a dilemma, and there are such big differences in the opinions of the army that it is difficult to make a decision. If this is the case, then leave this headache to Deng Sheng and the people in the court. Well, anyway, if Deng Sheng said to continue fighting, they would continue to fight, if Deng Sheng said to stop, then they would stop.

Yue Fei nodded after hearing this, and said: "It seems that this is the only way to go under the current situation. I will send someone to Wancheng to deliver a letter, and ask the king to make a decision, but before the king's decision comes, no one will Don't make trouble, do you hear me?"

"Here!" Everyone responded.
