Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

In the next few days, Zhao Chen, Yue Fei, Yu Yunwen and others were discussing the establishment of the General Staff Headquarters!

Zhao Chen has asked people to write letters to Li Gang, Wu Jie, Liu Qi, Zhao Zhe, Li Xianzhong and others, informing the staff headquarters of relevant information and asking them to make suggestions!

In Zhao Chen's view, the General Staff Headquarters is an important organization second only to the Military Aircraft Department! In today's chaotic world, the army is the most important thing. The establishment of the General Staff Headquarters, which can fundamentally change the army's command system, is of course extremely important. We must take it seriously, and even gather the wisdom of everyone to set up this organization!

It was not until the twenty-fifth of the first lunar month that Zhang Jun, Liu He and others fled back to Chang'an!

After Qin Hui, Zong Ze, Liu Guangshi and others heard that Zhang Jun had fled back, they immediately went to see Zhang Jun!

At this moment, these people are standing on the wall of Chang'an City.

Zhang Jun's face was dull. Liu Guangshi looked at Zhang Jun and said, "General Zhang, why are you the only one coming back? Where's your Zhang family army? Why don't you see them?"

Liu Guangshi's sarcasm made Zhang Jun furious, and said, "Liu Guangshi, what do you mean by these words now?"

Liu Guangshi smiled and said: "General Zhang used to be known as the rising star of the Western Army, second only to Han Shizhong! Now it seems that General Zhang is nothing more than that! You led an army of 70,000 to pursue Emperor Xuanwu, and in the end the entire army was wiped out, only you alone It’s ridiculous to escape and come back!”

Liu Guangshi had always looked down on Zhang Jun, who was born with mud legs. Now that he knew that Zhang Jun had failed, he was very happy!

Zhang Jun was extremely angry, and said: "Emperor Xuanwu has many soldiers and horses, our Zhang family army is not his opponent, and your Liu family army is definitely not his opponent either! Your Liu family army is far inferior to our Zhang family army!"

Liu Guangshi said disdainfully: "If my Liu family army stepped forward, they would definitely be able to capture Emperor Xuanwu alive! Then Emperor Xuanwu is just an incompetent young man, how can I not catch him? Only you, Zhang Jun, will be captured by Emperor Xuanwu A group of people bravely defeated!"

In Liu Guangshi's view, the so-called "Production and Construction Corps" is just a group of militiamen! In addition to Zhang Jun and Liu He who escaped back, there are hundreds of Zhangjiajun soldiers who have fled back. Liu Guangshi has already questioned these Zhangjiajun soldiers and knows that many of the soldiers of the "Production and Construction Corps" did not even have weapons, and many of them carried weapons. Sticks! Liu Guangshi felt that the so-called "production and construction corps" had no fighting power at all, and he wondered why Zhang Jun failed!

"Okay! Don't quarrel! Zhang Jun, you have lost nearly 100,000 troops, and His Majesty will punish you at that time, so prepare to receive the punishment!" Qin Hui said with a soft sigh.

Zhang Jun gritted his teeth, feeling extremely uncomfortable! But he was indeed defeated, and now he has nothing to say!

"Lord Qin, we still have hundreds of thousands of troops here, why don't we go west immediately and capture Emperor Xuanwu alive!" Liu Guangshi said.

"Our army has suffered serious losses! Before Emperor Xuanwu led troops into our camp, many people died under the trample on each other! This time the Zhang family army was wiped out again! The morale of the army is extremely low, especially those rebels. Many people don’t want to fight any more! We don’t have the strength to go west for the time being! We still hold on to Chang’an until His Majesty sends other troops to arrive! Moreover, our food and grass are very depleted, and now we have no food and grass. Ship it from the state and other places!" Qin Hui said.

"So, wouldn't Emperor Xuanwu escape with his life?" Liu Guangshi said.

"I heard that the imperial army under Emperor Xuanwu has returned. If we continue to advance westward, I'm afraid we may not be able to take advantage of it! The Jurchen army of more than 100,000 has been defeated by the imperial army, and it is impossible for us to defeat those imperial army!" Seeing Liu Guangshi like this Looking down on Zhao Chen's subordinates, Zong Ze frowned and said.

"Emperor Xuanwu's Forbidden Army can defeat more than 100,000 Jurchen troops? I think this is fake, and I never believe it!" Liu Guangshi shook his head.

Qin Hui was standing on the city wall at the moment, with a worried expression on his face! This time their 800,000 army marched westward, but they failed one after another! He is not like Liu Guangshi, who is arrogant and conceited. He has already deeply felt the strength of Zhao Chen's army! Moreover, Zhao Chen himself made him extremely vigilant. As the emperor, Zhao Chen actually led the army to fight in person. Since Song Taizu and Song Taizong, there has never been such a brave emperor in Song Dynasty! A male lion leading a group of lions is terrifying enough! In contrast, Jiangnan is far inferior to Hanzhong, whether it is the emperor himself or the army!

"Emperor Xuanwu is the great enemy in the future, far superior to Jurchen! His Majesty must be asked to recruit troops and send more troops to Guanshan! Now the morale of the army is frustrated, so we can only temporarily stop it! When we have enough strength, we will Then fight to the death with Emperor Xuanwu!" Qin Hui secretly said.

The night is already deep, and the cold wind is howling!

At this moment, the Jurchen army has once again retreated to Hancheng and Heyang!

Wanyan Zongwang is sitting in the county office of Heyang at the moment, the room is cold, and he is drinking there!

Wanyan Loushi sat beside him!

Both of them had worried looks on their faces!

"This time we were defeated by the Han people, it's unbelievable!" After a long time, Wanyan Lou said.

"The strength of the Han people is growing so fast! Especially the imperial army under Emperor Xuanwu, they are completely different from the lowly Han people we have seen before. They dare to fight us, and they don't even surrender! The number of Han people It is a hundred times that of our Jurchens, if everyone dares to fight and no one surrenders, our Jurchens are definitely no match for the Han people!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

"All this is because of that little emperor!" Wan Yan Lou Shi said.

"That's right! So we must eliminate this little emperor as soon as possible! I have already informed Wushu to recruit troops from all over the Central Plains! In addition, I have informed Zong Han to capture all the savages in the deep mountains and old forests to form a new army." ! I also reported to His Majesty to support us!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

Jurchen is divided into two parts: raw Jurchen and mature Jurchen! Mature Jurchens are those Jurchens who had more dealings with people from the Liao Kingdom, and raw Jurchens are those who have not been civilized in the deep mountains and old forests! And the birth of Jurchen also includes a "savage Jurchen". These savage Jurchen are completely barbarians. They don't have any contact with the outside world. Unusually strong! Although the Dajin Kingdom is now established, it does not include these "savage Jurchens". At this moment, Wanyan Zongwang wants people to capture all these savage Jurchens and fight for them!

"One or two years at most, our strength will increase again, and then we will deal with this little emperor!" Wanyan Loushi nodded.

"By the way, something happened in Hedong, I'm going to lead some troops to Hedong!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

"What happened to Hedong?" Wanyan Loushi asked in surprise.

"The Han rebel army in Hedong is getting stronger and stronger. When we went west, they even organized hundreds of thousands of people to attack Taiyuan! Taiyuan was almost defeated by them!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

"What?" Wanyan Loushi was taken aback.

"So I have to go back to Hedong, and deal with these rebels first!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

The rebel army in Hedong is now under the leadership of Wang Gui, Niu Gao and others. It turns out that they have also organized a large-scale attack during this period of time! However, their combat effectiveness is still limited, mainly to share the pressure for Guan Shan! Under such circumstances, Wanyan Zongwang had to return to Hedong!

"Woliyan, you must guard Hancheng and Heyang, and unite with Qin Hui and the others when necessary! Wait for another year or two, and our strength will increase. At that time, it's time to fight back!" Wanyan Zongwang said .

"I understand!" Wanyan Loushi nodded.

In the early morning of the next day, Wanyan Zongwang led 30,000 Jurchen elites back to Hedong, not to mention this.

*** ***

It's already February of the fourth year of Xuanwu, and the General Staff Headquarters has officially started to be established!

Zhao Chen is in Wugong County and is personally in charge of this matter!

There are three main organizations under the General Staff Headquarters. One is the Intelligence Department, which is responsible for collecting and researching intelligence;

Zhao Chen handed over the intelligence department to Wang Delai, but Wang De has not arrived yet, he is still in Jingyuan, Zhao Chen has sent someone to inform Wang De! As for the combat department, Zhao Chen thought about it for a long time. He originally thought that Yu Yunwen was young and talented, and was going to hand over the combat department to Yu Yunwen, but then he thought of Qu Duan, so he planned to hand it over to Qu Duan! And the logistics department was handed over to Yu Yunwen to be in charge!

In addition to setting up the General Staff Headquarters, the Military Aircraft Department has been busy arranging fortifications during this period!

The garrison of the forbidden army has been changed to Wugong County, Fufeng County, Fuping County and other places, mainly to defend against the westward advance of King Kang's army! Li Xianzhong's Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army is in charge of the area around Yan'an Mansion, defending the Jurchens from going north! The Huanqing Army is in charge of Luochuan and Huanglong in northern Shaanxi, and also defends the Jurchen from going north! As for the Jingyuan Army, they were transferred to Fengxiang Mansion and Dasan Pass to prevent internal accidents!

The entire Guanshan area is now full of military camps, and the combined armies of King Kang, Jurchen, and Zhao Chen have more than one million troops here!

Especially within a radius of 500 miles around Chang'an, there are troops everywhere, and a big battle will break out if you are not careful! Every general and soldier here is careful, and is on guard every day and night!

On the edge of the garrison of the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army, soldiers are digging trenches and setting traps everywhere! On the edge of Jurchen and Kang Wang's residences, such things are everywhere!

In addition, many forts and checkpoints have been set up within a radius of five hundred miles! A lot of food, grass, supplies, and strategic materials are also coming here!

Since February, there have been frequent small-scale conflicts in various places, with casualties on both sides! But there is no sign of a war yet! None of the three parties have any intention of using large-scale force for the time being!

Spring has arrived, and the campaign of "Grasing Defense and Promoting Production" has been launched in various parts of Guanshan and Shanxi. The 1.2 million youths of the Production and Construction Corps are taking the time to carry out production and construction while assisting in defense! They cleared the land, built water conservancy, planted seeds, and more!

Everything is going on in an orderly manner!

By April, the General Staff Headquarters already had thousands of people, and the Intelligence Department and the Operations Department each had more than 400 people. They were all selected from among the outstanding soldiers in the army! There are more than 200 people in the logistics department, and these more than 200 people are all selected from the youth of the Production and Construction Corps!

Wang De has arrived, but Qu Duan has not arrived!

Zhao Chen asked Yu Yunwen to take charge of the operations department temporarily!

On the afternoon of this day, a letter was sent by Wu Jieren from Sichuan!

After Zhao Chen saw the letter, he immediately called Wang Shu and Yu Yunwen over, and handed the letter to them!

"Such a thing happened in Sichuan?" Wang Shu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible!"

"Yes! Your Majesty, this matter cannot be allowed to spread!" Yu Yunwen also said.

"I'm going to go to Sichuan myself!" Zhao Chen said suddenly after being silent for a long time.

"Ah! Your Majesty, the situation in Guanshan is on the verge of breaking out. Now is not a good time to leave Guanshan!" Yu Yunwen said.

"Although the situation in Guanshan is dangerous, the combat department has analyzed it countless times before, and it will take a year or two before the real war arrives! Moreover, the intelligence department has also received information. Now the Jurchen capital city Huining House is fighting fiercely. The Jurchen emperor Wanyan Wu Begging for poor health, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyanchang and others are fighting for power and profit, and have no intention of going south! The Jurchens are not strong enough now, and they are still preparing! In the Jiangnan area, Huang Qianshan, Wang Boyan and others are dissatisfied with Qin Hui's superior position, and Qin Hui is likely to return Jiangnan! Now we just need to keep our positions! But Sichuan, this time I went to not only deal with this matter, but also more important things to deal with!" Zhao Chen said.

"What else is there?" Wang Shu said.

"The local power in Sichuan has always been very strong, and our policies have always been difficult to implement in Sichuan! Although we are sitting in Guanshan, Hanzhong, and Sichuan, we are powerful on the surface, but Sichuan is basically out of our control! This time I want to completely Solve the problem in Sichuan!" Zhao Chen said.
