Li Cong slapped his thigh on Monday: "The general is so knowledgeable, it's really ...... It's really far-sighted, and I admire it."

Su Dan said: "Make a great contribution...... Since you can't fight the Qin army, you have to fight the peasant army. 【Latest chapter reading. Is the general thinking that he will kill Gao Yingxiang? ”

Li Congzhou was taken aback: "Gao Yingxiang? He was the most powerful man in the peasant army. There are no less than 100,000 men. It's not easy to eat him. ”

Ziyi snorted: "When Gao Yingxiang was at his strongest, there were 100,000 horses, but right now, he has been beaten by Lu Xiangsheng, and half of the people have been lost, at most 50,000 people." Among them, there are also the old, weak, and injured, and there are only 30,000 or 40,000 who can really fight. As long as the officers and soldiers send a strong general to lead a surprise attack, they will definitely be able to break it. Once Gao Yingxiang was captured or killed, the court would definitely be very happy, and it was certain that Mr. Fan would be rewarded heavily, and Mr. Fan would naturally quietly move and become the governor of a province at that time. ”

Su Dan said: "Does he really have this ability?" ”

Ziyi said: "Fan Ju went from a white body to ascending to the Qin State, and it only took a few words. If he didn't have this ability, he wouldn't be called Fan Ju. ”

Li Congzhou became excited: "General, what should we do?" ”

Ziyi lowered his voice: "Right now, there are not many soldiers and horses in Xi'an City, and they are just on guard against the officers and soldiers, and they don't notice the peasant army, this is a good time." I need someone who has the courage and eloquence to act at the opportune moment, and I will go to meet Gao Yingxiang secretly and ask him to come with his troops and attack Xi'an. ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Congzhou and Su Dan were taken aback, and Li Congzhou was quick: "General, this matter ...... It's not easy. ”

Ziyi said: "Let's talk about it? ”

Li Congzhou said: "Gao Yingxiang has broken with the Qin army, we still belong to the Qin army now, can he believe our words?" Besides, Gao Yingxiang is not a stupid person, he will not know that Xi'an City is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Besides, there are white men and horses outside, who can be reinforced at any time, how could Gao Yingxiang come easily? Besides, even if he wanted to come, he wouldn't be able to pass Tongguan. ”

Su Dan groaned: "Even if you pass the Tong Pass, the Qin army will definitely get the news, don't say that Gao Yingxiang only has tens of thousands of horses, even if he has a 100,000 army, he can't take Xi'an." ”

Ziyi smiled: "I know, but it depends on what the person we sent says." This person must move Gao Yingxiang, and I know that there is no need to go to Tongguan to attack Xi'an. ”

Su Dan was shocked and blurted out: "Meridian Valley." ”

Ziyi smiled.

Su Dan has read books, so he naturally knows a real past more than a thousand years ago.

In the Three Kingdoms era, when Zhuge Liang was in the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, he led troops out of Qishan six times and attacked Chang'an. During the first Northern Expedition, the general Wei Yan once suggested Zhuge Liang to bring a group of 10,000 elite soldiers, 5,000 people to the front, 5,000 people to carry the grain behind, through the Meridian Valley road, sneak attack Chang'an. According to Wei Yan's statement, Chang'an can be taken down in one fell swoop, and the counties of Longxi can be decided without a fight.

But Zhuge Liang did not adopt Wei Yan's plan because he felt that it was too risky. The Meridian Valley is 500 miles long, the road is narrow, it is extremely difficult to walk, and it is very difficult for a large group of people and horses to pass, as long as there is a group of men and horses blocking in front, it will inevitably be the end of the whole army. Therefore, Zhuge Liang rejected Wei Yan's suggestion.

This became a public case in later generations, some people agreed with Wei Yan's plan, and some people felt that Zhuge Liang was right, but there were different opinions and no conclusion. But the Meridian Valley conspiracy, after the description of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, has become a well-known allusion.

Now that you want to persuade Gao Yingxiang's soldiers to go to Meridian Valley, can Gao Yingxiang listen?

Su Danda frowned: "General, Gao Yingxiang is from Shaanxi, he doesn't know Meridian Valley, do you think he will march from there?" Besides, even if he really entered the Meridian Valley, how could the officials and soldiers eliminate him? Everyone knows that at this time, there were no more officers and troops in southern Shaanxi. ”

Ziyi nodded: "That's right, there are no official troops south of Xi'an, but the official army can also enter Guanzhong from the Meridian Valley." ”

Li Congzhou was a little confused: "What do you mean by the general?" ”

Su Dan heard a little bit and said: "What the general means is to let the officers and soldiers enter the Meridian Valley to ambush first, and wait for Gao Yingxiang to arrive ......."

Ziyi said: "Exactly, so the most important thing about this plan is whether Gao Yingxiang can lead his troops into the Meridian Valley." ”

Li Congzhou said: "But what about the official army? Asking them to go to the Meridian Valley first, this is a risky move. ”

Ziyi said: "There is Mr. Fan in the official army, don't worry, the real embarrassment is Gao Yingxiang here." Behold, who is fit to be this messenger? And this matter must not be let Qin Jun know. ”

When Su Dan heard this, he smiled indifferently: "I know what the general means." Looking at the Huayin army, I am the only one who has the conditions. ”

Ziyi looked at him, and a wry smile appeared on his lips: "Are you willing to go?" ”

Su Dan said: "This kind of thing can only be done by sending henchmen." There is no one but me in this position. The general rest assured, I will definitely persuade Gao Yingxiang to enter the Meridian Valley. ”

Ziyi clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's really a good brother." Without further ado, you are ready, I will write a letter to Gao Yingxiang, you take it with you, and when you see Gao Yingxiang, give it to him, it may be helpful. ”

In the end, he took Su Dan's hand and said solemnly: "If this matter is successful, Gao Yingxiang will die, and I will have a big backer among the officials and soldiers, and the future plan can be implemented smoothly." It's all on you, with all your heart. ”

Su Dan nodded again and again.

In terms of eloquence, Su Dan is good, and what is more advantageous is that he is familiar with the psychology of the peasant army, and he has dealt with thieves before, so he knows what they like and what they don't like, which is very necessary to win Gao Yingxiang's favor.

Sure enough, Ziyi wrote a letter overnight and handed it to Su Dan, who sewed the letter into his clothes, and then he selected ten henchmen, rode a good horse, and left Huayin City on a starry night and came south.

At this time, Gao Yingxiang was anxious and hesitant.

For several months, Lu Xiangsheng has been chasing him to fight, biting and not letting go, and every time he fights, he always has to bite off a piece of his own meat.

His 100,000 horses have lost 30,000 or 40,000 people at this time, and Lu Xiangsheng is still chasing, if he continues like this, there will always be times when he, the king of breaking, will not be able to break through.

At this time, he led the army to flee to the junction of Huguang and Shaanxi, a few days ago he and Zhang Xianzhong joined forces, wanting to resist Lu Xiangsheng's offensive, but Lu Xiangsheng's Sun Chuanting and Zu Kuan were too fierce, only two charges, and his position was completely defeated.

Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong had to divide their troops and flee, Zu Kuan was ordered to pursue Zhang Xianzhong, while Lu Xiangsheng personally led Sun Chuanting and others, biting Gao Yingxiang. Along the way, five battles were fought, and Gao Yingxiang was defeated in all five battles, and the losses were great.

At this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the weather has begun to turn cool, the weather in the vast land of the lake is wet and cold, his men and horses have no town to camp at night, so they have to sleep in the mountains, many people are sick, and many people have joint disease, the whole body is sore, and even unable to hold a knife and gun.

The soldier's combat effectiveness was sharply reduced, which made Gao Yingxiang very uneasy.

That night, he led his troops to the boundaries of Zhuxi County and set up camp in several villages. Then he immediately called on several great ministers to discuss the matter.

His henchmen and generals include Huang Long, Liu Zhe, Hao Shaoqi and others, although these people can fight and dare to fight hard, but they are far behind in terms of strategy, they are all rough people, they have no ideas, and they have always fought wherever King Chuang pointed out. Gao Yingxiang also knows this, but major matters related to the life and death of the whole army still need to be discussed.

Several generals arrived, Liu Zhe was a little injured, and his head and legs were wrapped in white cloths, and blood oozed inside.

Gao Yingxiang glanced at them and said, "King Lu Yan is determined to eat us, it seems that he will not give up if he doesn't swallow us all." And right now, our troop losses are very large, many brothers are sick again, one brother is sick, and one brother has to take care of it, and it is not a way to continue like this. Think about it, what should we do? ”

Huang Long waved his hand: "King Chuang, since I followed you, I have been rampant in the world, I think when there were not many of us, I didn't see you sighing." It's a little difficult for us right now, but it's much better than when we were stuck in the Carriage Gorge before. So I said, don't worry too much, our brother is sick, and the officers and soldiers are not copper-headed and iron-armed, they seem to have added a lot of sick numbers, and everyone is half a pound and eight taels to each other. ”

Hao Shaoqi patted Huang Long's shoulder vigorously: "Brother Long still has the courage to break into the king, it's a big deal, let's start with him King Lu Yan, and fight again." If I fight the vanguard, if I don't crush his men, I won't call Hao Shaoqi anymore. ”

Liu Zhe was a little more refined than these two, and shook his hand and said: "It's not good to fight hard, Lu Xiangsheng is waiting for us to bump into it." In my opinion, we can't fight anymore, we still drag the nose of the officers and soldiers, and if the officers and soldiers catch up, we will leave an elite army to block him for a while. Let the brigade go farther. As long as the large army is there, Lu Xiangsheng can't eat us, so he can find an opportunity to make a comeback. ”

Gao Yingxiang said: "I think so too, we fought a few battles with King Lu Yan, and lost every battle, and the brothers were a little scared when they heard the name of King Lu Yan, which is also human nature, so in a short period of time, we can no longer meet with the officials and soldiers." But where are you going? We are not very familiar with Sichuan, and besides, I have heard Zicheng and the Eight Kings say that the Sichuan army is very strong, and once it enters Sichuan, it will be attacked by King Lu Yan and the Sichuan army from both sides, so Sichuan cannot go. ”

Huang Long said: "So, what about going back to Henan?" I heard that after Zicheng killed Cao Wenzhao, he has rushed back to Henan and wants to join us. It's better to go north and find Zicheng. ”

Hao Shaoqi said happily: "Yes, Brother Li has a lot of men and horses, and he has won a few big battles, and his morale is booming. ”

Liu Zhe shook his head: "How can it be so easy, at this time, Zicheng has become the key target of the encirclement and suppression of the official army, Hong Chengchou stared at him, I heard that Zuo Liangyu and others have made a military order, if you can't kill him, be willing to be a military law." The situation on the other side of Zicheng is even more sinister than ours. ”
