On the banquet, there were only two people, Duan Zhong and General Ying Haiying. Although this kind of dinner made Duan Chong feel a little uneasy, but fortunately, Duan Chong was extremely talkative, and he talked very happily with General Ying Haiying, and at this dinner table, the two of them had a very tacit understanding and did not talk about the current military strategy, but talked about the ideal of life, or the strategy of war, and then to the art of wine and tea, the span is so large, the end is something that the eight poles can't beat, and Duan Chong doesn't say anything else, the ability to talk nonsense is rising day by day, and after a free talk, this should be in a good mood for General Haiying, and he will attach importance to Duan as a confidant. Because Duan Chong does what he likes in every word, which makes General Ying Haiying happy, Duan Chong's principle is that he is happy and easy to do, as long as he coaxes General Ying Haiying to be happy, and he has any strategic ideas, this General Ying Haiying will naturally take the initiative to cooperate.

After waiting for the wine bag and rice bag, General Ying Haiying and Duan Chong rested for a while, and then led Duan Chong into yesterday's side hall, at this time, General Ying Haiying no longer had yesterday's shelf, and moved two chairs to sit side by side with Duan Chong, but he asked: "General Shan, you also know that my war in southern Xinjiang is urgent, and General Shan is not here to play, so we still have to discuss this war, and the matter of sending troops should be in these few days, otherwise wait until Beiliang launches an attack, Yesterday, I listened to a few words of analysis from General Shan, all of which were words of pearl, and said that the whip penetrated into it, so today I want to agree on a strategy with General Shan, so I will send troops to quell the chaos today! ”

Duan Chongyan's face hurriedly turned grim when he heard this, and he straightened up and said: "Since General Ying values Shan Teng so much, and Shan Tengyan dares not to do his best, then I will dare to talk about the strategies and tactics I have in mind!" If there is any bias, please correct it in time! ”

General Ying Haiying nodded when he heard this: "Please speak!" ”

Duan Zhong pondered for a moment, and then said: "I have already said yesterday, the distance between Guangzhou City and Tingzhou City has caused us great trouble, Tingzhou is a military fortress that can be abandoned, and our military strength in Guangzhou is beyond the reach of the whip, so we are not fighting, not fighting, but we can just make good use of this, the two Governor Diao Bin is a civilian official, and he does not know much about war strategy. Although there are a lot of generals under his command, but the one who can make a decision is still the governor of Liangguang, and as far as I know, this Lord Diao Bin is extremely imprudent, if it is not for the second prince of Xiao Beiding to send a strategist to watch this Lord Diao Bin, sooner or later there will be a big incident, if we can launch a force to storm the city of Tingzhou, if the guess is good, the second prince of Xiao Beiding will definitely abandon the city to fight a guerrilla war with us, and after the governor of Diao Bin in Guangzhou heard the news, he will definitely not stand still, there will only be two possibilities, The first is to lead the army to attack our Qianzhou, after all, if our army attacks Tingzhou, Qianzhou must be empty of garrison, which is undoubtedly an excellent choice; And the second situation, that is, the second prince of Xiao Beiping, who sent troops to aid Tingzhou, to flank the main force of our army, and at that time our army was attacked by the enemy, so I am afraid that life will not be easy! ”

General Ying Haiying nodded: "What General Shan said is extremely true, then I don't know if General Shan has a way to deal with it!" ”

Duan Zhong pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "My method is a bit risky, but if General Ying believes in Shan Teng, you can try it, because Shan Teng feels that this plan has a great chance of success!" ”

General Ying Haiying nodded and said, "General Shan, but it's okay to say it!" ”

When Duan Chong heard this, he said: "According to Shan, I hope that General Ying will lead all the troops and horses in Qianzhou City to attack Tingzhou, and Qianzhou City will not leave anyone behind to strategically abandon the city!" ”

General Ying Haiying's face changed when he heard this: "How can this be, if you abandon the city, it is equivalent to giving up the throat to the hinterland of Nanliang, once it is occupied by the second prince, it will cause a great threat to Jiangnan, which is categorically undesirable, and there is no city, what should I do with the supply of this army!" ”

Duan Zhong hurriedly shook his head: "General Ying, listen to me, if General Ying leads the army to vigorously attack Tingzhou, the second prince of Xiao Beiding will not dare to fight easily, so there will only be one ending, that is, this Tingzhou City will fall into our hands, if the second prince of Xiao Beiding really enters the water to fight a positional battle with us, it is also just in the middle of the hand, we are unwanted!" ”

Duan Zhong paused, but saw that General Ying Haiying was still pondering, so he continued: "As long as the second prince of Xiao Beiding dares to abandon the city, then this Guangzhou City will not be indifferent, at this time, as long as Guangzhou City dares to send troops, I will lead the soldiers of Dali to capture Guangzhou City, and General Ying, you only need to lead the army to march to Guangzhou City, after all, you will meet with the people of Diao Bin, the governor of Guangzhou and Guangzhou, at this time, as long as I send troops from Dali City, we will attack from both sides, and we will definitely be able to annihilate the army of Guangzhou City. At that time, the second prince of Xiao Beiding will be difficult to support alone, without the material support of Guangzhou City, it is impossible to fight guerrilla warfare with us for a long time, so it is bound to find a stronghold to defend it, but Tingzhou City is already an empty city, and the second prince of Xiao Beiding in Qianzhou City will not dare to come, and will only retreat to the south. ”

Duan Chong's words were finished, and then there was a long silence, and General Ying Haiying frowned, and he had been thinking deeply about it, and finally said: "If I attack Tingzhou City, until this Guangzhou City sends troops out of the city, how long will it take!" ”

Duan thought about it for a while and said, "Counting the time of message transmission, at least ten days!" ”

"And what if anything goes wrong in the last ten days?"

"Then this operation will fail!"

"General Shan attacks Guangzhou City, but he is sure to take it!"

Duan Zhong shook his head: "I don't dare to say that I am ten percent sure, but seventy percent is still there!" ”

"We have a choice!"

Duan Zhong shook his head again: "Judging from the current situation, there is room for it, but there is no time!" ”

General Ying Haiying's fist tightened, slammed on the armrest of the seat, as if he had made an extremely important determination, raised his head and looked at Duan Zhong very resolutely: "Tomorrow, send troops!" ”

Duan Zhong stood up and saluted very respectfully: "Thank you General Ying for your trust!" But he turned around and walked out of the house.

This night will be Duan Chong's last peaceful night, because after tomorrow, the 15,000 Dali soldiers will embark on the journey to Guangzhou, and the 15,000 Dali soldiers need to stop and march quietly, there is no doubt that the difficulty is great, but Duan Chong can only do this, which is also the only way Duan Chong can think of to minimize the casualties.

The night was a little dark, Duan Chong was a little lonely sitting in the courtyard, today's most difficult hurdle has passed, because in Duan Chong's view, it is not very easy to persuade General Ying Haiying, but fortunately, things are going much smoother than he imagined, thanks to the flattery and pretense of the past two days, and more importantly, Duan Chong still has some of his own selfishness in it, this Xiao Beiding Second Prince is going to catch it with his own hands.

And now, Duan Zhong is sitting in the courtyard not thinking about the philosophy of life, but ...... Wait for others, when the moon rises in the sky, a figure quietly appeared in the courtyard and landed on Duan Chong's side, this person is none other than Zongzi, and Duan Chong squinted his eyes and asked: "This road has been explored clearly, has the situation in Guangzhou City been clarified!" ”

Zongzi nodded and said: "I have found an extremely hidden road through the mountain people, and it should be safe to pass, and according to my observation, this Guangzhou city has not yet received the news of the arrival of our Dali army, but it should be known in two days!" ”

Duan Chongyan waved his hand when he heard this and said, "Don't worry, these things will be known sooner or later, we just need to give them a surprise!" As he spoke, he asked again: "This 'poison dagger' is all in order!" ”

Zongzi nodded again and said: "The 'poison daggers' along the way have been arranged, which is enough to ensure that all the movements of the Guangzhou City army will be transmitted to us as soon as possible!" ”

Duan Chong nodded with great satisfaction when he heard this, and said, "So we can rest assured, you have worked hard for the past two days, hurry up and rest!" Tomorrow is the time to send troops, and you will come with me then! ”

Zongzi nodded and turned to leave without the slightest hesitation, while Duan Zhong stretched his waist and slowly paced into the room to rest.

It turned out that these days, Zongzi did not follow Duan Chong's side all the time, but directly led some "poison daggers" to Guangzhou City to spy on the news, and make some arrangements, this strategy, in fact, Duan Chong had already set this strategy before he left, the reason why he came to Qianzhou was to let General Ying Haiying cooperate with his own actions, after all, the more than 20,000 people in the hands of General Ying Haiying were the most critical part of the soldiers and horses in this war, and played a role in involving the enemy. So there is definitely no room for mistakes, and now that the zongzi have been arranged safely, Duan Zhong naturally has no worries, and he can go to sleep with peace of mind.

This night is destined to be a peaceful night, and from tomorrow, it is destined that this southern Xinjiang will not be peaceful.

And the chaos on the continent has finally slowly kicked off, but no one knows when the climax of this farce will come and end, and I don't know whether this farce will end in tragedy or comedy.
