Chapter 319(2/2)
Then, the talents under his command, or the support of the people in the world, will naturally remain on the side of King Qin.
The King of Qi he plays still lives in the shadow of King Qin his whole life.
"So, the most fundamental way to win the Xuanwu Gate Change is to replace King Qin and become the true founder of the Liang Dynasty?"
Li Hongyun felt as if his head was as big as a bucket. The difficulty suddenly increased several levels.
But after a comprehensive analysis, this can only be the only way.
Thinking of this, Li Hongyun decided to start from scratch.
The first problem he had to solve was: age.
The King of Qi is four years younger than the King of Qin.
Therefore, when King Qi got his first opportunity to make military exploits in Jinyang, King Qin was already twenty years old.
The King of Qin began to lead troops to fight at the age of eighteen. He had been fighting for two full years at this time, including but not limited to "Yanmen Rescue", "Rescuing Liang Gaozu from the Ten Thousand Troops", "Planning Jinyang to Raise the Army", "
"The great defeat of Song Laosheng", "The great defeat of Xue Rengao in the battle of Qianshuiyuan" and many other famous scenes.
Then came the defeat of Liu Wuzhou, the crusade against Wang Shichong, and the capture of two kings at Hulao Pass.
At the time of the previous actions, King Qi was still too young. He just stayed in Jinyang and had no chance to make any achievements.
As for the following actions, although King Qi could accompany the army, King Qin had already established great achievements, and they were all decisive battles that determined the fate of the country. Liang Gaozu had no reason to divide his troops.
Therefore, due to his age, King Qi was destined to live forever in the shadow of King Qin, with no chance of success.
If the player plays the role of the prince, then Li Hongyun can still struggle a little.
You can take the initiative to lead troops in battles from the very beginning, and get a few more talents and skills that improve combat power and military skills, so as to seize these military merits.
But if it were King Qi, the age issue would be enough to give Li Hongyun a headache.
However, Li Hongyun did not give up because of this. After careful study, he found a breakthrough.
This breakthrough was the Battle of Asamizuhara.
The King of Qin was the most skilled emperor in history. From the time he started the army at the age of 18 until he personally conquered Goguryeo in his later years, he never suffered a defeat.
However, many people say that the Battle of Qianshuiyuan was the only defeat in King Qin's life.
This statement is incorrect, but for Li Hongyun, there is a hidden opportunity.
The historical records of the Battle of Asamizuhara are very clear, and it is divided into two battles before and after.
The first time, Xue Ju came to attack, the King of Qin led troops to confront him, deepened the trenches, raised the barriers, and did not confront Xue Ju. But at this time, the King of Qin happened to be suffering from malaria, so he entrusted the military to Liu Wenjing and Yin Kaishan, and repeatedly warned:
Xue Ju's army goes deep alone, there is not much food and grass, and the soldiers are tired, so they must fight quickly. You just need to hold on to the barrier, and you can defeat him after I recover.
As a result, Yin Kaishan encouraged Liu Wenjing to go to war, thinking that the other party would definitely despise Liang Jun when they heard that King Qin was ill, and it was just a good time to fight to deter the enemy.
As a result, he died after trying. He was surrounded by Xue Ju and attacked. Fifty-six out of ten soldiers died, and several generals were also captured. The heads of the fallen soldiers were even built into the Jingguan. It can be said to be a disastrous defeat.
But then, Liang Gaozu once again provided reinforcements to the King of Qin and made a comeback. This time, the King of Qin led the troops after recovering from his illness. He also could not hold on and waited for more than 60 days to wait for the other side to finish the food before launching an aggressive attack and completely pacifying Longxi.
Many people forcefully put this defeat on the head of King Qin, which is nothing more than the same old rhetoric: King Qin's illness is an excuse and the result of changing history. He just lost the battle, and then let Liu Wenjing take the blame.
But in fact this statement makes no sense.
First of all, Liu Wenjing is not a small person who can be used casually to take the blame. He was one of the Four Yuan Conspirators who raised the army in Jinyang. He had the privilege of "forgiving two deaths" and was the most important prime minister of the Liang Dynasty at that time.
Moreover, he also showed certain military capabilities, so it was very reasonable for him to take over the command instead of King Qin.
After being defeated by Xue Ju, Liu Wenjing was dismissed from office and imprisoned, but the King of Qin was able to lead troops to fight against Xue Ju again. Xue Rengao and his son were enough to see that Liu Wenjing was not the one to blame, but that he was the main person responsible for this failure.
Secondly, Xue Ju cannot be said to be a particularly powerful general. His combat effectiveness is indeed not weak, but except for the great victory in the first battle of Dioyuan, there is no special record of using his troops like a god.
Finally, the root cause of the failure in the Battle of Qianshuiyuan was Liang Jun's hasty attack, which was actually completely inconsistent with the King of Qin's consistent combat style.
The basic pattern of every battle the King of Qin fought was the same, which was to hold on, harass the grain routes, demoralize the enemy, and pursue them fiercely.
The King of Qin did this before and after Qian Shui Yuan, but it was completely unreasonable to attack rashly in the first battle of Qian Shui Yuan.
Therefore, there is no problem in the historical records. At that time, the King of Qin temporarily handed over the power to lead the army because he had malaria, but Yin Kaishan and Liu Wenjing messed around, which led to a disastrous defeat.
So for Li Hongyun, why was the Battle of Qianshuiyuan the only breakthrough for him to play King Qi?
Because before that, the King of Qi he played was too young to participate in the war; after that, King Qin undisputedly became the most capable person in the entire Liang Dynasty, and it was almost impossible to shake his status.
Impossible.
Only during the Battle of Qianshuiyuan, when the King of Qin was ill, did he achieve a victory that shocked Liang Gaozu, and then did he hope to lead the army independently from the King of Qin, or even replace him.
So the next question is: How can he go to Qianshuiyuan when he is in Jinyang?
Just drop Jinyang and run over? That definitely won't work.
That was an absence from duty, and he couldn't seize the military power from Liu Wenjing when he got to Jinyang. No matter how much Liang Gaozu doted on him, he couldn't hand over military and state affairs to a man who was only fifteen or sixteen years old and had never fought.
The younger son who has been through the war.
Therefore, if you want to seize this opportunity and win the battle while King Qin is ill, you must establish some meritorious deeds in advance to make everyone think that King Qi is qualified to replace King Qin.
Then, he must continue to advance this time point and play a decisive role in the two links of "raising troops in Jinyang" and "pacifying Song Laosheng".
For a middle school boy who was only fourteen or fifteen years old at the time, this was indeed quite ridiculous.
But Li Hongyun did not give up, because this was the only solution he could think of.
Just do it.
Li Hongyun started the trial again, and the first time he saw King Qi, the idea of moving the timeline forward flashed in his mind.
Sure enough, the entire trial illusion began to change, and it really kept going backwards, returning to the state when Liang Gaozu raised his army in Jinyang.
Naturally, King Qi's age further deteriorated and he became a boy of only fourteen or fifteen years old.
At such a young age, it is very troublesome to do many things.
It was impossible to march and fight, because his physical fitness was too far behind, and he would be wasted on fighting on the battlefield, and no one would listen to his command.
The only way out is to make plans.
However, suggestions may also be ignored by others, considered as children's jokes, and may not even be listened to.
The method Li Hongyun came up with was quite simple, crude and efficient: copy!
He wanted to copy the methods of Liang Gaozu and Qin Wang from historical materials, and put forward various suggestions before them.
In this way, Liang Gaozu and the King of Qin would find that this fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old boy had seen many people, and most importantly, he thought of them every time.
At that time, Li Hongyun will flatter these two people a little, and over time, his opinions will be taken seriously, which will lay a solid foundation for a series of actions he will take in the future.
There are contradictory records in historical records regarding the Jinyang uprising.
Some historical materials record the main figure who raised the army as Liang Gaozu, believing that Liang Gaozu had long had the idea of rebellion and implemented it step by step; while other historical materials record that the main person who raised the army was the King of Qin, believing that Liang Gaozu was hesitant and it was the Qin King who repeatedly persuaded him.
Liang Gaozu finally made up his mind.
It's hard to tell the specific situation clearly, but for Li Hongyun, it's not a big problem.
These two statements are probably not contradictory.
First of all, we can be sure that Liang Gaozu himself must have had the idea of raising an army. The previous dynasty was already in turmoil and turmoil was everywhere, and he was not stupid. There was no need to continue to hold the memorial arch of the loyal ministers of the previous dynasty to bury the previous dynasty.
Wouldn’t it be nice to raise your own army and become the emperor?
But he was the supreme leader at the time, and for such a big thing as raising an army to rebel, he had to make a decision after weighing all aspects of the situation and putting safety first.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, it may appear as hesitation.
As a young man who was just eighteen years old and full of energy, the King of Qin was very ambitious and his behavior of making friends with heroes and cultivating his power was unquestionable. It was also normal for him to persuade Liang Gaozu to raise an army.
Therefore, Li Hongyun believed that Liang Gaozu took the lead in this matter and made the final decision. However, because he was not sure of his appeal and strength, nor was he sure of the prospects at that time, and because he was in a high position, he could see better than the King of Qin.
There are more unfavorable factors, so hesitation and hesitation are shown in the process.
There is no doubt that King Qin played an important role in the process of raising troops in Jinyang.
So, after Li Hongyun thought hard, he decided to put the breakthrough first on King Qin.
