Please ask me to be the emperor
Chapter 879 Three Strategies
When Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, and Lu Xiang, the governor of Yunyang, resigned, Zhang Shun was overjoyed.
He quickly prepared a banquet, summoned Zhang Shenyan, Lu Weiqi and Song Xiance to accompany them, and entertained them well.
When they arrived at the wine table, Zhang Shenyan, Lu Weiqi and Song Xiance knew Zhang Shun's intention, but they were careful to accompany him without hurting their faces.
It's just that Hong Chengchou always felt that others seemed to have a sarcastic look on their faces.
He couldn't help but ask with the strength of his wine: "I am in prison and have not heard about the power of the world for a long time. I wonder if King Shun can let me hear about it?"
Zhang Shun actually asked Zhang Shenyan and Lu Weiqi to briefly explain this matter for him.
But now that Hong Chengchou was newly promoted, he had to take care of his almost non-existent face.
Zhang smiled and said, "I was supposed to just have a drink today and not pay attention to political affairs. Since Mr. Hong has a question, I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to speak for him!"
"Now the rebels have defeated Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, and occupied Nanyang in the south; they have defeated Fu Zonglong, the governor of Henan, and Zhu Dadian, the governor of Caoyun and the governor of Fengyang, in the east, besieged Zhengzhou, and forced Kaifeng; they have defended by the river in the north, and they are incompatible with Wu Ni, the governor of Shanxi. Convict; Xi Ze has just broken through Tongguan and wants to enter the pass. I wonder what you can teach me, sir?"
Hong Chengchou was shocked when he heard this. He never expected that the rebel army would develop such a momentum while he was in prison.
He couldn't help but put down his wine glass, stood up and bowed in admiration: "King Shun is the true master of destiny, and I am the first to obey him!"
"I have three strategies, upper, middle and lower, to please King Shun. Please let me tell you!"
"Oh? Mr. Hong, please speak!" Zhang Shun knew that this was Hong Chengchou trying to show his value in order to gain his importance and respect.
Zhang Shun thought about it carefully and found that since Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, was captured, his will could not be called firm. Even when he pretends to be stupid and shows his cowardice, isn't it an act of sending a signal to himself?
The reason why he was so impatient this time was probably because he had not responded to his signal, so he was extremely anxious.
Sure enough, Hong Chengchou showed off: "The best strategy is for King Shun to take King Fu and lead all the elite troops, abandon all burdens, cross the Yellow River northward with one heart and one mind, defeat Huaiqing, Weihui, Zhangde and other prefectures, and then go north along the Taihang Mountains. Go straight to the capital."
"Once we capture the capital, we will announce to the world the differences between the two concubines, support Prince Fu as emperor, and give orders to the world. No one dares to disobey!"
When Zhang Shun heard this, he thought, oh, isn't this Zhu Di's old wisdom?
It's just that Zhu Di was originally one of the clans with a close blood relationship, and he was faced with the pressure of Zhu Yunzhen to cut down the vassal. It took a long time to change, so he had to fight to the death.
But now he is just a rebel, how about compared to Hongtai of Liaodong, She Chongming and An Bangyan who have affected the four provinces of Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and Guangxi?
Even if he is like Zhu Di, he conquered the city of Beijing like a broken bamboo all the way. Because his roots were not solid, his name was not correct, and his words were not smooth, he had no choice but to support King Fu on the throne.
At that time, not only will they face serious threats from various local forces in Houjin and Ming Dynasty, but they will also have to fight internally with King Fu who just came to the throne. Wouldn't it be asking for death?
Zhang Shun couldn't help but shook his head and said with a smile: "The King of Fortune is a man of thousands of chariots, how can he put himself in danger? This is not the way of a loyal minister, and I will not do it! I would like to hear what the strategy is!"
Good guy, although Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, knew that Zhang Shun was cunning and cunning, he never expected that this guy was so powerful and he could see the key to it at a glance.
Do you know why Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, surrendered to Zhang Shun so quickly? In fact, he might not have other plans in mind!
If Zhang Shun really did what he said, he would defeat the capital in one fell swoop with the Northern Expedition and support King Fu on the throne.
Then Zhang Shun will face the same dilemma as Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao.
There are courtiers inside who support the emperor and engage in various conspiracies; outside there are warlords and vassal towns who join forces to attack the central government in the name of "Qingjun side" and "Killing Han thieves".
When the time comes, Zhang Shun will be besieged internally and externally. Even if he is covered with iron, he can only choose to sit in the center or lead troops to conquer in one direction.
Then King Shun, who was lacking in skills, could only choose himself, a surrendered minister with both civil and military skills, as his ally.
Either he sits in the center and sends himself to lead troops to quell the rebellion; or he appoints himself to sit in the center and leads troops to quell the rebellion.
If this is true, then should I be Zhao Kuangyin, the founder of the Song Dynasty, or Wang Yun, the leader of the Han Dynasty?
Seeing that Zhang Shun did not take the bait, Hong Chengchou couldn't help but laugh again and said: "The strategy is right. King Shun should lead the army and march eastward as soon as possible."
"Southern Zhili is the taxation land of the imperial court, and the Grand Canal is the bloodline of the capital. Once you occupy the rich land in eastern Henan, cut off the grain supply, there is no need to kill or fight, and the discipline center will surrender without fighting!"
"When the time comes, support King Fu in Zhongdu, and no one in the world will respond. King Shun can first go to the south of the Yangtze River, collect its money and grain, and follow the old plan of Ming Taizu; he can also attack the capital north and command the nine armies. In this way, the world can be conquered, and the Central Plains will be determined! "
Good guy, isn't this a plan that has been eliminated after repeated arguments by myself and others?
Hong Chengchou, what do you mean? Could it be that you want to harm me on purpose?
Originally, Zhang Shun saw that he came up with the best strategy and "made it a blockbuster", and said that he was just a strategist, deliberately bluffing people with big words first, and then offering practical strategies to show his ability.
However, this strategy also contained evil intentions, so Zhang Shun couldn't help but wonder what this guy was doing.
Zhang Shun couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate!"
"Although this strategy is good, it is also risky. It seems that money, soldiers and horses are optional, but in fact both are in the hands of others."
"If we don't wait for the rebels to take it, I'm afraid that we will be attacked from the north and the south! What's more, if we and the imperial court are both injured in the battle, wouldn't it be in vain for Houjin of Liaodong to reap the benefits?"
Hong Chengchou's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He never expected that Zhang Shun had already thought it through.
He had originally planned that if the "Shun rebels" defeated Southern Zhili, he could use the excuse that "Pang Tong offered his advice."
If King Shun really occupied southern Zhili, he would still face the risk of dividing his troops between the north and the south. The generals under the thief's command were of no concern, and King Shun would have to rely on himself when the time came.
But now that King Shun has seen through this strategy, what should we do?
Hong Chengchou knew that if he proposed unreliable strategies again, he might lose the life he had just saved.
He pondered for a moment, and then couldn't help but add another suggestion: "The next best thing is for King Shun to personally pick up an army of soldiers and horses, and take advantage of the chaos to rush into the pass."
"Guanzhong is close to the Tartars, the people are fierce, and there are many spears and horses. There are no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses in the four towns of Gansu, Yansui, Guyuan, and Shaanxi."
"However, the land is barren and the people are in difficulty. The soldiers do not have enough to eat twice a day, and the people do not have enough to eat."
"There were also many thieves and soldiers who plundered places and captured people, causing great trouble to both the upper and lower levels."
"If King Shun is able to occupy this place, he can climb high and give a shout, and those who respond will gather together. If there is food and pay, all the elite soldiers will be used by King Shun, and the people will all drive for King Shun."
"King Shun can follow the example of Qin and Han. If he advances, he can conquer the world, and if he retreats, he can separate one country from another. Is this true to the general? If you don't take advantage of it, you will be blamed!"
The third update has arrived, but it’s a pity it’s a little late!
