Fan Zhongyun pointed to the Giant Rock City, and said in a deep voice: "The early goal, we have achieved it perfectly, and in the next war, we are nothing more than two choices and directions, one is to fight fast and slow, take the Giant Rock City before Zhan Bai has gathered troops and horses to get ready, and then drive straight into Anshu Kingdom, strive to take this country in the shortest time, and try to break up the military spirit and morale of Zhan Bai's army as much as possible, so that it can mess up its own position." Anshu is Zhan Bai's country, the country is lost, Zhan Bai will not have any room to play, can only lead the army to come, and we fight to the death, the second is to fight fast with slow, if Zhan Bai has been prepared, give up everything, gather troops to stick to Anshu, then, there is no room for the military plan to fight fast and slow, at that time, we go deep into the enemy's territory, supply is difficult, the rear is empty, Zhan Bai can not collide with us at all, to Anshu to hold on to the enemy, and then detour to cut off our back road. ”

Li Xun understood what Fan Zhongyun meant, he had already won Xizhou and the Seven Eastern Kingdoms, and with a stable rear, he could calmly carry out a follow-up war with Zhan Bai, and there was no need to throw himself alone and enter the middle of the Western Regions.

War is not gambling, it is not a last resort, there is no need to compare the size with the other party, even if it is really impossible, it is a big deal to return to Wuzhou, anyway, this battle, in terms of money and food, I have already obtained a very rich return, to myself, to the court, to everyone, can get a satisfactory answer.

But there are many adventurers in the army, and they don't agree with Fan Zhongyun's suggestion, because this is just his personal speculation.

Seeing everyone arguing there, Fan Zhongyun was silent, returned to the chair and sat down, drinking tea quietly, Li Xun waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's been discussed for more than two hours, everyone is tired, I asked people to make food, eat first, and we will continue to discuss after eating." ”

Li Xun diverted the topic, first stabilize the situation, the scouts sent to Boulder City should be back soon, and it is not too late to make a decision when the specific news over there is clarified.

Sima Tu whispered beside him: "What Mr. Fan said is very right, the lord must not act rashly. ”

Li Xun smiled and said lightly: "I know it in my heart, you can rest assured." ”

Combined with everyone's suggestions, Li Xun thought about it again and again, and his heart was actually inclined to Fan Zhongyun, but such a major decision, Li Xun could not be arbitrary, otherwise Wang Dezhao would not be convinced, Li Changchun and many generals would not be convinced, after all, the soldiers and horses that really belong to Li Xun's headquarters, the five thousand cavalry of Yuanhe, the attitude is too tough, and it is very likely that everyone's relationship will be stiff, at this juncture of the war, Li Xun may not have the ability to lead everyone upside down, but Li Xun can still do it in the relationship and mood of the people.

Things quickly came to an end, and while everyone was eating, the scouts who had gone to Boulder finally returned.

The elder brother of Emperor Bilan, Zhesha, and 15,000 troops stationed in Giant Rock City have abandoned the city, along with several countries around Giant Rock City, their nobles and armies, have fled to Anshu Kingdom, time is tight, and the scouts are divided into two, one of the scouts returned to Zhenshi City and told Li Xun the news they have received so far, and the other part of the scouts continue to go deeper and explore the movements of the countries in the central part of the Western Regions.

After getting this news, everyone was silent, and things were as Fan Zhongyun guessed, Emperor Bilan's younger brother Zhesha gave up the retreat of Juyan City, there can only be one possibility, that is, to retreat to Suye City, Juyan City has become an empty city, and now everyone is marching into Anshu Kingdom, it is very likely that as Fan Zhongyun said, they will go deep into it and be unable to extricate themselves.

Wang Dezhao, Li Changchun and others looked at Fan Zhongyun's gaze, and slowly changed, anticipating the enemy's opportunity, nothing more than that.

Li Xun looked at Fan Zhongyun and said, "Old Fan, things are really as you said, in this way, we can't act rashly." ”

Chen He arched his hand at Fan Zhongyun and said with a smile: "Mr. Fan, things are as you expected, so we can only stand still for the time being, but what about the future?" After all, this is someone else's territory, and it will not last long. ”

"Wait for Jhamber to come by himself."

Fan Zhongyun said lightly: "The defenders of Giant Rock City retreated, the intention is obvious, that is, to get out of the way, let us get into it by ourselves, we will not move, Zhan Bai's strategy cannot be realized, then he can only lead the army to come and form a confrontation with our army." ”

Wang Dezhao frowned and said: "Zhan Bai's troops are above us, and they are fighting on the mainland, if a confrontation is formed, we may not be able to take advantage of it." ”

Fan Zhongyun glanced at everyone, saw that Chen He's face was relaxed and smiling, his heart moved, and he asked out loud: "Brother Zhizhi seems to be confident, but he already has a countermeasure in his heart?" ”

Fan Zhongyun and Chen He don't have much communication, only a few faces, but for this person, they are very impressed, strategic, and thoughtful.

Chen He smiled, stretched out his finger, and said, "Brake with static, and strike later." ”

Li Xun's eyes flashed, he thought of something, and asked, "Wait for the opportunity to control the enemy from within?" ”

"Handsome and wise."

Chen He stroked his palms in admiration, patted a sycophant, and then said: "Although there are many soldiers and horses in Zhan Bai's hands, they are a collection of the entire Western Regions countries, each with their own interests and concerns, and now we have suddenly arrived and swept through the seven eastern countries, for them, it is a great enemy, which is the same as the former Dashi Empire, so the current Western Regions countries will definitely unite unprecedentedly and jointly deal with us, but if the threat we give them is not as big as imagined, or the interests of some of them are damaged, Some people don't, wealth and suffering are unequal, and there will definitely be people who will stand up and do everything in order to protect their own interests. ”

Listening to Chen He's words, Li Xun fell into deep thought.

Chen He glanced at Li Xun, and then looked at Fan Zhongyun, the latter also seemed to see, the two looked at each other, and there was a smile on their faces, Fan Zhongyun was very impressed by Chen He, Chen He was the same, Fan Zhongyun's depth and strategy, Chen He was extremely admired, he knew that these things he thought of, Fan Zhongyun must have thought of them a long time ago, the reason why he didn't say it, but let himself say it, was to let himself establish his reputation and integrate into Li Xun's group as soon as possible.

This kind of mind, this kind of person, Chen He has to admire.

Three days passed quickly.

The first year of Tianhe, the sixth day of the first month.

Zhan Bai had gathered an army of 150,000 and came to Shu State, more than 200 miles south of Anshuguo, while Anshu State was 60,000 Chen soldiers, led by Emperor Bilan's younger brother Zhesha, and held the city. 2k reading web
