"Guan Jia, these test papers are the test papers and names of the people who won the Enke exam this time."

Zhao Kuangyin didn't even look at it and asked, "How did my third brother do in the exam?"

"The three great kings have unparalleled talents. They are all ranked first in poetry, poetry, theory, and policy. Only the scriptures are slightly inferior. They are barely qualified. All the ministers in Chongwen Palace think that he should be the first."

"Top... number one? Number one scholar."

"Yes."

Zhao Kuangyin was in disbelief and said: "You guys are showing off, aren't you?"

"This time Enke adopted the method of obscuring names and copying. How can we do favoritism? The test paper is here, and the officials will know it at a glance."

When Zhao Kuangyin heard this, he first picked up the poems and poems with doubts, and then he couldn't help but applauded. Then he read his theory of prisoner indulgence, and he couldn't help but applaud.

Occasionally, he laughed and scolded: "This kid would rather look up Li Shimin's achievements in the history books than praise my elder brother. He is so arrogant."

After thinking for a while, he said: "With these two strategies, I can bear the title of leader. I will post the test papers later and record them in my newspaper. If I get the information, I can convince the public."

"Looking further down the official line, the strategies of the three kings are truly brilliant."

"Oh? Isn't it comparable to Wang Pu's Pingbiance..."

As he watched, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but look serious.

In fact, Fan Zhi and the others asked this question with the intention of lowering the difficulty of the exam. After all, Wang Pu's Pingbian policy was called the first policy of the Five Dynasties. Chai Rong also highly praised it. For ordinary candidates, as long as it was the first policy of the Five Dynasties,

After reading, reading, and understanding this piece of Pingbian policy, I can write something based on Hu Lu’s painting.

If you haven't even read the famous Ping Bian Ce, it means that you don't care about national affairs at all, so why are you still trying to get into the imperial examination?

However, although it can be seen that Zhao Guangmei's policy is still based on the Pingbian Policy, it is from a high position, and its substantive content is actually far superior to the Pingbian Policy.

You must know that Wang Pu is Chai Rong's most trusted person. Even Zhao Kuangyin said after becoming emperor that if Wang Pu was still alive, he would not allow me to dominate the world.

As a result, it now seems that, at least in terms of knowledge, Zhao Guangmei has far surpassed Wang Pu.

"Go and call me the third child."

After a while, Zhao Guangmei entered the palace with a hand full of sawdust. As he walked away, he muttered: "What are you doing? You have to call me. I am doing carpentry work. Brother, you have to give me some more money. This

The decoration is really too expensive, and I’m about to run out of money. Hey, I’ll take you to my house later to have a look. The effect is definitely good, and it’s much prettier than your palace.”

Zhao Kuangyin took his test paper and said: "This, the strategy to pacify the world, was it you who wrote it?"

"Ah? The papers have been approved? It's so fast. When will you let me be the governor?"

Zhao Kuangyin snorted when he heard this, turned to Fan and said, "Draw up an imperial edict and make my third brother the King of Qin, and the loyal and brave military governor."

"Here."

Zhao Guangmei was overjoyed: "King of Qin? Is this the King of Qin? He is the King of Qin from Li Shimin, right? Brother, you are so interesting!"

Among the three great princes, he occupied Qin, Fu Yanqing occupied Wei, and Li Jun occupied Jin. Hum, when it is the second brother's turn, wouldn't there be nothing for him to use?

At most, give it to Chu, Yan, Shu, etc. They don’t sound as domineering as Qin, Wei, and Jin.

"Don't interrupt, please tell me your plan."

"Oh, in fact, the essence is still the policy of the former Prime Minister Wang Pu. He said it too briefly, I just enriched it a little bit."

Zhao Guangmei took the test paper with a smile and read:

"The strategy of leveling the border is to go south first and then north, first easy and then difficult. The countries in the Southern Dynasties are both rich and weak, so they can use them for military purposes."

"The strategy for Pingnan is to start with Jing and Hu. The young ruler of Jingchu is suspicious of the country, and civil strife is gradually emerging in Hunan. These two places can be conquered in one battle, or they can use a false strategy to destroy Guo, or they can use a strategy to restrain the emperor.

They may instigate the Southern Dynasties to attack each other, and I can win by swallowing them up in the name of rescue."

"Now that Jinghu Lake has fallen, the connection between the Southern Tang and later Shu has been severed, and there is no way to form an alliance to resist the Song Dynasty. Only then can we divide and annihilate them. I think that although the Southern Tang was rich and powerful, its ruler was very respectful.

Can be a little

Slowly, although Later Shu is weak, Meng Chang is a traitor who has always been ambitious and unwilling to surrender. His prime minister, Wang Yan, often compares himself to Prime Minister Zhuge, thinking of the Northern Expedition. He is just like a rat, and it is ridiculous and incompetent."

"This is because God has given us the friendly troops of the Song Dynasty. The road to Shu is difficult and dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, if we have friendly troops in the Song Dynasty, we will leave Xiongguan and take the initiative to attack with me. We should lure them to defeat and lure the Shu army.

Annihilate them in the Guanzhong Plain and win in one battle, and the land of Shu will be conquered."

"Now that we have gained the territory of Shu, I have complete control of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. We should train the navy, overwhelm the Southern Han Dynasty, encircle the three armies, and then go to the Southern Tang Dynasty. The bandits of the Southern Tang Dynasty will not be able to stop it. Since the Southern Tang Dynasty is gone, the south will be determined.

”

"The south is determined, and Yanyun should be captured. However, I believe that if you want to determine the north, you must first secure the west and fight the Liao Dynasty. It is better to go slowly rather than hastily, and it is better to go slowly than quickly. The capture of Youyan is to win the hearts of the people first. The so-called strategy of attacking with troops

, if one hundred thousand infantry were to take the initiative to march north and fight with millions of Liao troops in the field, this would be a ridiculous strategy for an honest soldier."

After reading this, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but interrupted: "The previous strategy of Pingnan is quite meaningful. Many of my ideas coincide with mine. But why should this strategy of Pingnan be slowed down?"

Shouldn’t we be in a hurry?”

Zhao Guangmei sighed silently in her heart when she heard this, and thought to herself, why else? Isn't it all a lesson learned from my good second brother?

But he analyzed it solemnly: "I dare to ask, big brother, compared with our Central Plains heroes, which one is stronger and which one is weaker?"

"Naturally our Central Plains soldiers and horses are more powerful, but..."

Zhao Guangmei answered: "It's just that in the battle between our Central Plains Dynasty and the Khitan, we usually win first and then lose. Although there are constant small victories, it is always difficult to win a big victory. Big brother thinks I am right."

Zhao Kuangyin nodded with deep understanding and said: "This is exactly the reason. To be honest, in my eyes, the southern countries are just chickens and dogs. It's easy to be peaceful. Only Khitan, whose national power is so strong, has

Far from being comparable to the likes of the Xiongnu and Xianbei, it is actually a serious thorn in the side of our Song Dynasty and a life-and-death enemy."

Zhao Guangmei smiled and said: "The advantage of our Song Dynasty is that our soldiers are talented and brave. All the soldiers are professional soldiers. They train day and night. Once we go to war, we have no reason to lose in the same number of wars, even if it is one against two.

With one against three, or even one against ten, the Khitan rats are really not strong enough to compete with us. However... if it really is a decisive battle, once both sides invest more than 100,000 troops, we will not be able to do it."

Saying that, Zhao Guangmei sighed herself.

In fact, if you study the Song-Liao war in depth, you will find that even after Zhao Da, the second brother or the eldest nephew, in fact, the Song army won more against Liao and lost less. In small-scale battles, the Liao army

In the middle, there is no way to defeat the Song Army!

Of course, except for a small number of elites from the Liao Kingdom.

However, the Song Army has a big shortcoming, that is, if the Song Army only has 10,000 people, it can have the effect of a Liao Army of 100,000 people.

But if the Song army has 200,000, then... the effect of fighting is still 100,000.

To put it bluntly, the Northern Song Dynasty was full of professional soldiers. Compared with the temporary conscription soldiers of the Liao Kingdom, the advantages of professional soldiers on the battlefield were really not even one or two, they were almost bullying.

However, precisely because they are professional soldiers, there are many mountains in the Forbidden Army. To put it more broadly, the Forbidden Army is different from the frontier army of Jiedushi. In the Forbidden Army, there is a difference between the Guards Department and the Palace Front Department.

At least thirty divisions must be separated! Each division has its own interests and calculations.

Taking out one of these armies alone can defeat the Liao army, but if they are taken out all at once, it will be doomed.

Because large corps operations are different from small corps operations, each combat department must have precise coordination to win a big battle. However, when the Song Army fights large-scale operations against the Liao Army, there will always be one or two armies.

If you lose the chain and don't cooperate well, then you will collapse and lose the whole game.

When the Liao army dealt with the Song army, or even before it dealt with the Zhou and Han armies, it actually relied on one move: lure the enemy deep, gather them and annihilate them.

If I can't defeat you, I will run. If I run, you will have to chase and chase. Then there will be a certain army that runs too fast and underestimates the enemy and rushes in, or a certain army that runs extremely slowly.

The situation of falling behind.

Then I will concentrate my forces and eat this lone one first.

This is not a weakness of the Song army. In fact, Chai Rong was also like this at that time. When fighting the Khitan, Shi Yanchao, the most powerful general of the Zhou Dynasty, chased the Liao army too fast, causing Fu Yanqing and Li Jun to retreat.

He failed to keep up, and as a result, Shi Yanchao was kicked out by the Liao army.

Originally, although this shortcoming was huge, it was not fatal.

But after Zhao Kuangyin released his military power after drinking a glass of wine, he inspected the inspection in front of the palace, the deputy inspection, and the commander of the guards and horse infantry, and the deputy commander of the capital. These top officers, he concealed their absence and sent them out.

In other words, these positions have been part-time for the emperor from now on. Except for the emperor himself, no one in the army is qualified to command so many armies at the same time to complete a battle with a scale of more than 100,000 or 200,000.

The above large-scale war.

This was no problem during the Zhao Kuangyin era. Even his original intention was not necessarily that these official positions would not be awarded in the future. He himself checked the origins in front of the palace, and dozens of commanders were all promoted by him personally.

There is nothing wrong with being the Grand Marshal of the Armed Forces, and there is no reason for him to grant these official positions to others.

But other emperors after Zhao Kuangyin really didn’t know how to fight!

This was the situation Zhao Er encountered at that time. Because there were no inspections and general commanders, no one in the entire Song Dynasty except himself had the power and qualifications to command the coordinated operations of dozens of regiments in the entire army.<

/p>

Then he can only direct it himself.

What a fucking boss!

In the Battle of Gaoliang River, the Song Army actually did not lose at all, and the losses of each department were not much. However, inexplicably, his headquarters disappeared. It was simply the result of poor coordination and chaotic command among the departments. It looked like those generals were trying to do it deliberately.

It's like killing him.

The generals didn't even take it seriously. They helped Zhao Dezhao become the emperor and still wanted to continue fighting with the Liao army. The main force was not damaged at all. As a result, they heard out of nowhere that the emperor had fled back, and they lost in confusion.

As for the teaching of formation diagrams that came out later, it was already abnormal, and the principal had to praise him for his expertise.
To be continued...
