Song Jiang listened to Jia Runfu's pleading, and was secretly surprised in his heart.

The news in Qingzhou was blocked, and Li Jing deliberately blocked the news after marching to Xuzhou by sea, so Song Jiang didn't know that the Wagang army in the Central Plains had fallen to such a field.

However, Song Jiang is also a person from some city governments, although he was surprised, but on the surface, he pretended to be quiet, and said lightly: "Mr. Jia, this matter is very important, and I still have to discuss it with the generals." Mr. Jia was also invited to rest at the post house for a day. ”

Jia Runfu bowed and bowed, and slowly withdrew from Song Jiang's Liang Palace.

When Song Jiang saw Jia Runfu walking away, his face began to become solemn, and he ordered the guards outside the house in a deep voice: "Come on, go and invite the military advisor quickly." ”

After a short time, Wu Yong slowly walked into the Liang Wangfu in Song Jiang.

After listening to Song Jiang's narration of the past, Wu Yong's face became quite solemn, he shook his feather fan twice, and said in a deep voice: "I originally thought that the Wagang Army was dominating the Central Plains, and this battle would have to be fought for three or five years regardless of victory or defeat, but I didn't expect that in less than eight months, Li Mi had already fallen to such a field. Yang Gao's child is not simple! ”

A hint of panic flashed in Song Jiang's eyes, "Military Division, I was forced to lead the army to revolt back then, and now that the Sui army is strong, why don't you send someone to contact Emperor Sui." If he is willing to recruit us, he will surrender to Qingzhou, so as to seek a future for the brothers. ”

Wu Yong shook his head and said, "The king's idea is good, but now that the Sui army has won successive battles, it will not take us seriously at all. Even if Emperor Sui is willing to recruit An, his official position will not be high. I don't think it's a good time to recruit An, and we should fight a few battles to let the court know how powerful we are. At that time, the brothers will have a good future. ”

Song Jiang nodded: "What the military advisor said is extremely true. That military advisor thinks that now Lone Ying should lead the army to save that Li Mi? ”

Wu Yong smiled slightly: "It can be saved, or it may not be saved!" ”

Song Jiang was confused when he heard this, and asked puzzledly: "What does this mean?" ”

Wu Yong explained: "There are drawbacks of saving and saving, and there are disadvantages of not saving and not saving." This matter must be handled carefully, at least you must not go to the Central Plains, the king! ”

"Why?"

Wu Yong pretended to shake the feather fan twice, and said concentratingly: "Going to save Li Mi is undoubtedly offending Emperor Sui, if the king still wants to be in Zhao'an in the future, it will definitely be very difficult." ”

"Not bad!" Song Jiang nodded, "Then what if you don't save it?" ”

Wu Yong said in a deep voice: "If Xiao Sheng is not mistaken, Li Mi's envoy for help is probably not only Jia Runfu, but someone must have asked to see Dou Jiande in Hebei." If Dou Jiande sends troops to rescue and defeat the Sui army, it is very likely that Li Mi and Dou Jiande will come to us to settle accounts with the Autumn Queen because we are not moving, and our army will attack our army on the two roads of the Central Plains and Hebei, and our army may not be an opponent. ”

Song Jiang nodded again like an echo worm, "What the military advisor said is extremely true. Whether it is saved or not, it will offend people, I don't know what the military advisor has to solve it? ”

Wu smiled with a yin yin, "Don't worry, the king, I have come up with a clever plan to share the king's worries!" ”

Song Jiang frowned with joy when he heard this: "The military advisor is worthy of being a wise multi-star, quickly tell me your clever plan." ”

Wu Yonghe smiled and said, "King, in fact, my plan is also very simple. Now our army is roughly divided into two factions, one of which is headed by General Chao Gai and General Dong Ping, both of whom are veterans who have followed the king for many years. The other faction is headed by Meng Haigong, Xu Yuanlang and others, all of whom were kings and hegemons in Qingzhou back then, although they are now subservient to the king, but they have great autonomy. ”

A cold light appeared in Song Jiang's eyes: "Yes, although they have all been defeated by Lone, they still have not weak strength, if Lone wants to completely exterminate them, they will inevitably pay a huge price, and maybe they will make wedding dresses for others." So they reluctantly accepted their surrender. I never thought that these people would take advantage of Lone's kindness, become more and more unscrupulous, and repeatedly disobey Lone's orders! ”

Wu Yong said with a smile: "King, my strategy is to let Meng Haigong, Xu Yuanlang, Gao Tansheng and others lead the army to the Central Plains, and if the king wins, he will lead the army to the Central Plains." If the king is defeated, he will use the excuse that a few people do not obey the military order and send troops without authorization, and it has nothing to do with the king. Regardless of victory or defeat, these people will be greatly damaged, and the king can take the opportunity to completely regain their military power. ”

"Sure enough, it's a good plan!"

Song Jiang was overjoyed when he heard this: "According to Mr.'s plan, Gu ordered Meng Haigong, Xu Yuanlang, Gao Tansheng and others to send troops to the Central Plains." Hmph, but these people are all unprofitable things, so I'm afraid they will have to pay some price for sending troops alone! ”

Wu Yong smiled coldly, "King, no matter what the price is, when we eat these guys completely, we can take it back with interest!" ”

。。。。。。。。。。

In Kim Yong City, the battle flags of the Sui army were flying high outside the four city gates, besieging the capital of the Wagang army.

After Yang Gao's victory in Xiangling, he took advantage of the victory to march and successively took Ruyin County, Jiyin County and Qian County, which were empty of troops.

At the same time, Wang Shichong also entered the Central Plains in a big way and took the entire Dongjun. Then he ordered his nephew Wang Renze to lead 30,000 elite soldiers to attack Xingyang County, and he personally led an army of 50,000 to attack Kim Yong City.

Wang Shichong and Yang Gao joined forces, and more than 200,000 troops gathered at the foot of Kim Yong City, while the Wagang army in Kim Yong City was left with less than 40,000 remnants of defeated generals.

occupies such an absolute advantage. Yang Gao also did not adopt the most common tactic of "encircling three and one" in siege warfare, but used the strategy of encircling on all sides.

Wang Shichong, the general of the East Gate, Xue Rengui, the general of the West Gate, Li Jing, the general of the South Gate, and Yang Gao himself at the North Gate, all arranged 50,000 troops at the four gates, which completely trapped Kim Yong Cheng in the core like an iron bucket.

In Kim Yong City, Li Mi was completely desperate after the defeat of Xiangling, and became a hands-off shopkeeper, handing over almost all military affairs to Zhu Wen and Shan Xiongxin, while he indulged in wine all day long.

Li Mi's move disappointed many Wagang Army officers and soldiers, and in previous battles, Li Mi repeatedly disregarded the life and death of his comrades for victory, resulting in voices opposing Li Mi in the army. Now Li Mi is willing to degenerate, so that Wagang's safety is in danger, which makes this opposition more and more strong in the army.

The sharp-eyed Zhu Wen took advantage of this opportunity to woo the dissatisfied generals in the army, excluded dissidents, gradually hollowed out Li Mi, and seized the leadership of the Wagang Army.

After the Sui army approached the city, Zhu Wen remained in danger and repelled the attacks of the Sui army many times, which greatly increased his prestige in the Wagang army. Many people have begun to forget the invincible Wei king Li Mi, and see Zhu Wen as the person who can truly lead the Wagang army.
