With Liu Qi and Zhao Li's current strength, it has been quite reluctant to resist Zong Fu and Zong Bi, and the pressure has eased for a period of time after Zong Ying and Wang Xuan came, but after Zong Han and Zong Fu joined forces, Shandong soldiers and horses were again in a crisis of defeat and retreat, Yanzhou, Yizhou, Qizhou, and Qingzhou were lost one after another, and Zong Han's army took advantage of the situation to enter near Xuzhou, and Zong Fu was like a pair of pliers to firmly clamp Shandong's military situation to death. The Eastern Route Army and the Western Route Army of the Jin Kingdom were accustomed to cooperation, and once the military layout of the separate and combined attack was launched, it was extremely powerful. Although it was not the first time that the Dengzhou Army and the Bianliang Army had cooperated, they had only echoed each other before, but this time it was the first time that they fought side by side in the same area, and friction and contradictions were inevitable.

At this time, the military command center of the Shandong Peninsula was formally led by Wang Shizhong and his military staff, and the chief military staff of Wang Shizhong was Chen Zhenghui. It can be said that Wang Shizhong is the formal leader of the Dengzhou soldiers, and the staff sent by the Han Department are the actual operators of this war. The Bianliang Army is a guest army, and the guest is at will, and the strategic layout is mainly to cooperate with the military situation of the Dengzhou Army.

At the beginning, Zhao Li considered that the cooperation between the Dengzhou Army and the Bianliang Army was getting weaker, and suggested that the two sides should be stationed separately, so that the two armies could maintain a certain distance, which not only echoed each other but also avoided pulling each other's feet, but also could not give full play to the advantages of fighting as a whole. Therefore, after Zong Han came, he not only quickly suppressed the Bianliang army originally stationed in the area of Mount Tai to the door of the Shandong Peninsula, but also had the spare strength to harass Huaibei and deter Zhao Gou's movements.

Seeing that the situation was in danger, Chen Zhenghui hurriedly asked for help from Jinmen and Shangdang, and at the same time asked Zhao Gou for reinforcements in the name of Wang Shizhong.

At this time, Yang Kaiyuan had been living in Jinmen for a long time in order to staff the war in Shandong, and when he saw that Yang Yingqi wanted to go to Dengzhou in person, he asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Chen Zhenghui has lost ground, it seems that I have to personally go to Wang Shizhong to be a 'staff'!" ”

Yang Kaiyuan asked rhetorically: "Why did Chen Zhenghui lose ground?" ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Not only could he not integrate the Dengzhou Army and the Bianliang Army, but he didn't even play the role of the central commander, he was only responsible for logistics in Huaizikou, and Liu Qi, Zhao Li, and Wang Xuan fought separately on the front line. Hum! Ruodeng Prefecture only needs a logistics officer, so why send him! ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "My thoughts are different from yours, I think he has done a good job." In the past few months, there has been a lot of war on the west bank of the glue, but the two states of Denglai have been able to basically maintain stability, and the logistics supply has not gone wrong, which is his great credit! As for the integration of the Dengzhou Army and the Bianliang Army, not only will it not be possible, but I am afraid that you and I will not be able to do it if we go - it will take time! Also, he can delegate power and let Liu Qi, Zhao Li, Wang Xuan and others fight separately on the front line, which may also be the best choice. Although the front line is defeated now, the smaller the defensive circle, the stronger the defense will be. "There are pros and cons to shrinking the defensive circle, one of the disadvantages is that there may be a problem of supply at the same time as giving up the territory, but now that the Shandong Peninsula has the East China Sea as the rear area, this problem is not obvious.

Yang Yingqi heard what Yang Kaiyuan said, and frowned: "Third brother, what do you mean by this?" ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "The most dangerous thing in the world is to let a civilian official who doesn't know much about military affairs directly command the army. Chen Zhenghui is not a handsome talent, if he directly controls the military layout of Shandong, I am afraid that the chance of surprise victory is not large, but the chance of defeat is not small. ”

Yang Yingqi said unhappily: "Third brother, what you are talking about is Chen Zhenghui, but in fact you are referring to me, right?" ”

Yang Kaiyuan smiled slightly: "I do think it's useless for you to go to Dengzhou." ”

Yang Yingqi snorted and said: "Now the scale of this war in Shandong is larger than the original battle in Liaokou, and I also know that Chen Zhenghui is quite unworthy of the position of commander - in fact, not only him, but the entire Han Department, who is qualified to be the commander, I am afraid that only the third brother is the third brother, but how can you come forward?" "In addition to his own ability, the commander of the army also needs to have complete qualifications, prestige and status to play the greatest role, and only Yang Kaiyuan has this qualification in the current Han Department. Aluman's status in the Han army is similar to Yang Kaiyuan's, but he is a northerner, and he is not suitable to enter Shandong as a commander - in fact, although Yang Kaiyuan's situation is better than Aluman's, even if he is allowed to cross the sea as a commander, he may not be able to subdue the Bianliang army.

Yang Kaiyuan listened to Yang Yingqi's words, nodded and said, "Yes, so even if you go, it's useless." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Then we can't do nothing, just watch Zong Han knock down Dengzhou, right?" ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "But we can't solve the problem if we send one or two people over." What Shandong lacks most now is reinforcements, not entirely the ability of the commander. But it's really hard for us to give more aid to Shandong. Wu Qimai and Zong Han's patience with us is close to the limit, and if we transfer troops from the Han region, I am afraid that there will be an imminent outbreak between us and the Jurchens, and we will have to start a full-scale war. For today's plan, the only way to hope is to look at Jiangnan and Shangdang. ”

"Zhao Gou? I can't count on him! Yang Yingqi said: "As for the second brother, I heard that the battle situation on the party side is also very unfavorable, and the second brother is being suppressed by the silver magic and can't move." Zong Han is not a fool, since he decided to attack Shandong first, he must be prepared for the possibility of sending reinforcements to the Shangdang! So what I'm afraid of is not that the second brother won't send troops, but that I am worried that the second brother will fall into Zong Han's trap once he sends troops. ”

Yang Kaiyuan nodded and said, "That's what I said, but Ying Qi, this thing is a little strange." ”

Yang Yingqi asked, "What's strange?" ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "Since the party became an army, the days have not been short. During this time, we have given great support, and we have done our best to provide human, financial and material resources. With the second child's ability, this time is enough for him to organize a regular army of more than 50,000 people. In addition, they are in the Shangdang battle, so I privately estimate that even if the strength of the loyal army is not as good as that of Liaokou, it should at least be stronger than the coalition army of Liu Qi and Zhao Li. It may be possible for the first brigade to hold back the loyal army, but it should be more than enough for the second brother to deal with it. If I am in the party, I will have to put pressure on Zong Han no matter what—whether it is entering Hebei or entering Henan, it will always be impossible for Zong Han Zongfu to attack Shandong with all his might. Otherwise, as soon as Shandong misses, Longde Mansion will be under siege on all sides, and even if Sun Wu is reborn at that time, it will be useless. ”

Yang Yingqi muttered: "But looking at the battle report from the party, the second brother has completely shrunk the defense line, and the layout of troops is extremely conservative. Yang Yingqi stopped and exclaimed, "Second brother arranges like this, is it ...... Could it be that he has already sent some troops to the east to aid Shandong? ”

Yang Kaiyuan's face was solemn and said, "It's very likely." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "But we can think of this matter, and Zonghan Zongfu can also think of it!" ”

"Not bad." Yang Kaiyuan said: "So if the second child really does this, I'm afraid it will ...... I'm afraid I'll be ambushed along the way! "Zong Han's ambush battle was extremely good, which Er Yang saw as early as the Battle of Taiyuan.

Yang Yingqi said: "Then we have to persuade him...... But...... But...... I'm afraid it's too late! ”

Yang Kaiyuan sighed: "If the second child really has such a plan, he should have already taken action now, and the mountains and seas from Jinmen to Shangdang are blocked, and we will persuade him now, it will be too late anyway!" Besides, if he had made up his mind, he might not have listened to our advice! ”

Yang Yingqi bit his lip and said, "Third brother, if the second brother enters Shandong, what is the chance of successfully learning with Liu Qi?" ”

Yang Kaiyuan thought about it for a long time and said, "If Zong Han and Zong Fu didn't expect it, then there might be a sixty percent chance of winning. If Zong Han and Zong Fu are prepared, I'm afraid it will only be two percent at most. ”

Yang Yingqi said again: "Then what if the second brother does not enter Shandong, but uses strange soldiers to attack the rear of the Jinren, such as Yanjing and Yunzhong?" ”

"You mean Wei Wei to save Zhao?" Yang Kaiyuan muttered: "The strength of the second brother may be better than that of Yinshu, and a full-scale attack may be able to suppress Yinshuke's retreat." But if you want to bypass the silver magic and rush to the rear of the golden people, it is impossible to have a lot of troops. If there are too few troops, even if the sneak attack is successful, it will not be able to stand on its feet. Now although Zong Han and Zong Fu are focusing on Shandong, Yanjing and Datong still have heavy troops, and the second child may not be able to withstand the counterattack of the Jin army even if he succeeds for a while, so it is difficult to collect the effect of encircling Wei and saving Zhao. I don't think the second child will do this kind of thing. ”

Yang Yingqi paused and said, "In this way, isn't the second brother very dangerous?" ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "The current battle situation in the Central Plains is extremely unfavorable to us, if you still can't make up your mind to enter the army, then you have to think about how to deal with the aftermath." ”

The muscles on Yang Yingqi's cheeks jumped a few times, and finally sighed: "It's not okay to enter the army anyway." Militarily, there is no way to open up the situation, so we can only rely on political skills. ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "Political skills? ”

"Hmm." Yang Yingqi said: "Let's find a way to talk to Wu Qimai and see if we can spend some money to keep the second brother and Dengzhou." ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "If it is militarily unfavorable, I am afraid that the conditions they will open will be very harsh." ”

Yang Yingqi said gloomily: "Then what can be done?" No matter how bitter the bitter fruit is, you have to swallow it. Third brother, you said that Zong Han and Zong Fu want to conquer Dengzhou, how much will it cost? ”

Yang Kaiyuan thought for a while and said, "If Zhao Gou can send heavy reinforcements within a month, then Shandong may still be able to hold it." If Zhao Gou does not send reinforcements or delays the day, then Shandong will be in danger. However, Laizhou was well prepared, and if Zonghan Zongfu wanted to swallow it, he would have to leave at least three to five times more corpses than the last time he threw them under Liaokou City. ”

"Today is not as good as in the past, and now the Jin Army has more than three or five times more cannon fodder troops than it did then? This price is something that Zonghan Zongfu can afford. Yang Yingqi said: "But this is not a small loss, I think there should be something to talk about." ”

Yang Kaiyuan said, "What are you going to talk about?" Send Yang Pu to Huining? ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Yang Pu is only afraid that he won't be able to talk about this big thing. ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "Do you want to ......?"

"I want the fourth brother to talk." Yang Yingqi said: "At present, the only one who is likely to complete this negotiation is the fourth brother." ”
