There was a deafening cheer outside the house, and Tu Lichun, who was sitting in front of the window, looked outside, but saw that it was the cavalry he brought with him who cheered.

"Why are the little cubs so happy?" Tu Lichun was a little puzzled.

Liu Chenglin leaned over and grabbed the wine glass in front of Tu Lichun, filled it for him, and said with a smile: "I have laid down Henghai's base camp here, and I have got a lot of money, probably because Zhu Shou is preparing to reward the soldiers and boost morale." Therefore, I have rewarded 20 times for every cavalry who came to help, and it will not take much effort for you to hang up on your horse when you return home! ”

"Willow Thorn Shi is arrogant." Tu Lichun gave a thumbs up, 2,000 cavalry, 20,000 per person, this is 40,000 yuan, which is not a small amount of money, for Liu Chenglin, who has just stood on his own feet and wants money for everything, it is indeed generous enough. He didn't shirk it, the soldiers were really hard enough to run all the way, and they didn't reward them heavily, how to keep their morale high?

"Be generous to others!" Liu Chenglin raised his glass and said, "If you earn it by yourself, you will be distressed." ”

The two of them raised their glasses and touched them, they both drank them all, put down the cup, and Tu Lichun said, "What are you going to do next?" Zhu Shou has suffered such a big loss, it is a joke to crusade against you, it is estimated that he will focus on protecting Hejian and other henchmen next, do you want this Suning? ”

"Don't!" Liu Chenglin said categorically: "The matter of Jingzhou, I can't handle it for a while, I can't chew too much, it's better to leave it here and ignore him first." ”

"That's what Childe meant." Tu Lichun said: "If you occupy Suning, it is equivalent to probing Bingfeng under Zhu Shou's nose, he will definitely be unwilling, maybe he will have to fight a dozen hard, but if you withdraw, it can be regarded as giving him such a step to go down." Neither side is stationed in Suning, but there is a buffer zone. ”

"It's only a month or two, and when the autumn harvest is completed, the two sides will inevitably fight, Li Ze also means this, right?" Liu Chenglin asked.

Tu Lichun nodded: "Yes, after the autumn harvest, our Yizhou has also completed the military reorganization, and when the time comes, we will launch a large-scale attack on Henghai, when the time comes, can you send troops here on time?" ”

"Naturally, there is no problem with sending troops on time, I am just worried that when my main force leaves, Shi Yi in Yingzhou will take advantage of the loophole." Liu Chenglin frowned and said, the only Shenzhou army that could contain Shi Yi had a strange relationship with Li Ze, and he didn't dare to count on it at all.

"Childe will find a way to do this. Starting to put pressure on Shenzhou from the top of Chengde, I don't think we can see the powerful relationship here. Tu Lichun said.

"That will only have to be seen when the time comes. But you reassure Li Ze that even if Shi Yi is really uneasy and kind at that time, and the Shenzhou side is watching the fire from the other side, I will still send troops. Compared with the entire Henghai, Jingzhou's gains and losses are not important. ”

Listening to Liu Chenglin's words, Tu Lichun gave him a thumbs up, Liu Chenglin said this, which was to replace himself with Li Ze's overall interests. Indeed, as long as he can take Cangzhou, Dizhou and other places, even if Shi Yi takes advantage of the fire to rob Jingzhou, he will not be able to hold it.

Liu Chenglin did not regard Jingzhou as his own land, but was willing to cooperate with Li Ze's overall strategy, which made Tu Lichun immediately look at him.

"Do you say that Cao Xin has handed over all the military power of Yizhou to Li Ze?" Drinking slowly, Liu Chenglin asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, it was before Cao Gong went to Shiyi to propose to your parents." Tu Lichun said: "With the strength of the prince alone, if you want to take Henghai, you don't have to think about it at all, so the soldiers and horses of Yizhou must join in, but even so, without your Liu Thorn History sending troops from Jingzhou, it will be in vain." ”

"Is the reorganization going well?"

"Smooth!" Tu Lichun said: "Who is Cao Gong? The details have long been taken into account, those generals with old qualifications and complicated relationships are now following Wang Wenshu to serve under You Yong and preparing to fight Zhenwu, and those who remain are those who have simple experiences and are easy to manage, so the reorganization of Wuyi basically did not make much waves, and it was successfully completed. ”

"So, there are still some twists and turns?"

"Of course, the military orders and regulations of our Wuyi Army are a little different from the original Yizhou Army, and the Yizhou Army resisted a little at first, but after a few fights between the two sides, they died down." Tu Lichun said with a smile: "The man in the army, if you really can't talk about it, then use your fists to speak, is it a mule or a horse, can't you just pull it out and slip away?" ”

"And such a thing?" Liu Chenglin's eyes lit up. "It looks like your Wuyi army won?"

"Three battles and three wins!" Tu Lichun said with a smile: "The two sides each have three tuns, and they will decide the winner on the school field, and the Yizhou Army has been beaten three times, and if you are not convinced, you have to be convinced." ”

"If I have the chance, I'll give it a try too!" Liu Chenglin jumped to give it a try.

Speaking of which, although it is the festival degree that makes each party dominate one side, everyone is still the Tang Army in name, basically using the same kind of drill, even if the style of play is different, it has a lot to do with the general's habit of leading the troops, but the most basic things are still exactly the same, Tu Lichun said that the Wuyi Army is different from the Yizhou Army, which is naturally different from the one he is familiar with now.

"There must be a chance, when we take Henghai together, in Cangzhou City, put on an open frame to fight and fight it out!" Tu Lichun raised his glass.

Liu Chenglin smiled and raised his glass to touch it, with a crisp sound, the two glanced at each other, and they knew their own thoughts.

Liu Chenglin's words have a lot of deep meaning.

Cao Xin has now handed over the military power, so after he has laid down Henghai, how will he Liu Chenglin deal with himself? Since Tu Lichun talked about the above matter, Liu Chenglin felt that he could follow suit, and if he lost the battle, he justifiably handed over the command of the army and won the war, so he could still maintain a certain degree of independence.

He wasn't worried that he didn't have an army to bring, even if he voted for Li Ze in the future, with someone like himself, would Li Ze not let him lead the army to fight? The difference is only the ultimate belonging of this army.

"I'll go back to Jingzhou next, are you going back to Wuyi?" Liu Chenglin asked.

"I'll go back, but this cavalry won't go back." Tu Lichun said, "They still have to continue to make trouble for Zhu Shou." ”

"Continued harassment of him?"

"It's not all." Tu Lichun lowered his voice: "After the autumn, we marched into Henghai, hundreds of miles of uninhabited land in Texas, for us, it is also an obstacle, this cavalry will go to Cangzhou, Dizhou and other places to harass operations, in fact, it is to cover our establishment of secret supply points in Dezhou, these supply points will advance in the direction of Cangzhou, so that when the war starts, our pressure on logistics and supply will be greatly reduced." So far, we have built five effective strongholds, but they are not enough to support our army in time, so more needs to be built. ”

Liu Chenglin stayed for a while before finally returning to his soul.

"Li Ze, this kid, really take one step, look at ten steps, these strongholds, he has already started planning after the burning of Texas, right?"

Tu Lichun laughed and pointed to a young cavalry general outside the window: "That person's name is Li De, he is a young general that Gongzi likes very much, after the burning of Dezhou, he has been carrying a cavalry in Texas. Next, I will take Childe's personal guard battalion back, and the remaining more than 1,000 cavalry will be handed over to him. ”

"Harassment, destruction, exhaustion of the sea, he sent a large army to surround him, and the cavalry retreated to Texas, and when his army departed, you attacked again." Liu Chenglin exclaimed: "This can further destroy the autumn harvest in Henghai, exhaust his soldiers, and lay a good foundation for the big war after the autumn." ”

"Liu Thorn Shi got to the point, and the son also asked me to bring Li De a sixteen-character policy." Tu Lichun gave a thumbs up.

"I want to hear about it!"

"The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I chase, the enemy is stationed and I disturb, and the enemy is tired and I fight!" Tu Lichun said word by word: "This is the essence of the guerrilla warfare method. ”

"What a brilliant argument!" Liu Chenglin applauded. "Sometimes I'm really a little strange, people like me, you, have been on the battlefield for many years before they have some experience in war, why is his understanding of war so profound at such a young age? The First Battle of Texas is really amazing, and the tactics of this guerrilla war are even more convincing! ”

"Or maybe that's what you were born to know! The little boy is born to be a person who wants to achieve great things. Tu Lichun said proudly.

Liu Chenglin was dumbfounded.

The next day, the two armies parted ways, Liu Chenglin led his troops back to Jingzhou, he couldn't wait any longer, and now he was worried about Shi Yi's actions.

And Shi Yi, who was in Zhangwu at this moment, didn't dare to advance, because the Shenzhou army had already assembled at the border, and he originally thought that Shenzhou would at least sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but he didn't want the other party to send a large army, which made him have to think twice.

At the same time, Zhu Shou and Heng Haijun, who were still in Renqiu, were depressed. Ren Qiu's willow army was indeed defeated by them, but it was precisely because they easily defeated this army that they found out that they had fallen into Liu Chenglin's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, but it was too late to realize, when the left-behind troops of Suning were severely attacked, and even the news that the camp was lost, everyone knew that this crusade had failed.

Not only did he not succeed but he lost his troops, which is far from a comeback, and the bleak future of Henghai has been clearly shown in front of everyone's eyes.

Zhu Shou stood in front of the map, staring at the maps that crisscrossed and divided the territory of power, and was speechless for a long time.
