Chapter 69: Showing Weakness to Strength

It is easy to occupy Pyongyong, but it is quite tedious and difficult to govern Pyongyong.

Yong'an is different, with Fang Changping and Luo Taibai leading 9,000 men and horses, it is enough to easily conquer it.

With the reputation of the Wuling Chen family in Yong'an, it is not difficult to win the support of the family, and Chen Ziqian's side has also established a good relationship with the other nine county commanders, so Yong'an can easily change hands when an order is issued.

Everyone's interests are not affected, the only difference is that Taishou changed from Zeng Yuan to him Chen Ziqian.

Pingyong's side is different, after the war, people's livelihood and commerce have been affected a lot, and the interests of the big families here have been damaged, and it is a big project to appease them.

This is also the reason why Zeng Yuanqi was in a hurry to attack Le Lin and had no intention of sorting out internal affairs.

After all, the corresponding matters are cumbersome and time-consuming, and there are many disadvantages in the overall situation, so they can be dealt with together after taking down Lelin.

Chen Ziqian is not in a hurry, he will let Zeng Yuanqi toss first, and he will just sit and reap the profits.

And although Lelin is not small and the strategic location is not bad, in comparison, it is already content to easily win Yongan and Pingyong counties.

After all, the rice still has to be eaten one bite at a time, and it is easy to pull the crotch when the step is big.

Chen Ziqian is very clear about the current strength, his talents are limited, and he has more than enough to take care of the two counties, and no matter how much, he may not be able to take care of it.

And once the situation gets out of control, it will be more and more difficult to clean up.

In these troubled times, if there is an internal problem, it is easy to be targeted.

Chen Ziqian didn't want to toss and turn for a long time, and in the end, everyone else took advantage of the cheapness, so much of a panic!

chatted with Lin Xiaodao all the way, and it didn't take long to find a wine shop in the city and sit down.

Unfortunately, the business in the store was bleak, and the purpose of taking the opportunity to inquire about the current situation in the world was not achieved.

Not long after, Le Yingqing and Le Jinghui changed into casual clothes and came to the wine shop.

The two sides met in the private room upstairs, for this young lord, although Le Jinghui was the first time to meet, but through the previous cooperation, he was quite respectful to Chen Ziqian in his heart, and bowed respectfully and respectfully.

Chen Ziqian is still a corporal of Lixian as always, and picking up Le Jinghui is a praise and praise, and he inadvertently brushed a wave of favorability.

After the politeness, Chen Ziqian didn't care about those false courtesies, and directly asked the Le Jinghui brothers and sisters to sit together.

Le Jinghui's current position is more embarrassing, he surrenders to Zeng Yuanqi on the surface, but in fact he is Chen Ziqian's person, many things not only have to take into account Chen Ziqian's interests, but also avoid self-exposure and death.

It's hard to be a person in the middle, and it's naturally timidity to do things.

In this state, anyone will feel aggrieved, and Le Jinghui is no exception, especially when he received an order just now, Zeng Yuanqi actually asked him to lead the old troops to attack Le Linguan County, and he will set off in a hurry tomorrow.

With a snap, Le Jinghui put the talisman sent back by Zeng Yuanqi on the table, with a puzzled face: "Guanxian is not as good as Ningyun Peilai, this county has thick walls and convenient transportation, once the troops are used in Guanxian County, Lelin County and the surrounding counties can send reinforcements in less than half a day, and the attack will inevitably suffer heavy losses. ”

"I didn't expect Zeng Yuanqi to be so vigilant, he handed over the military power to him, and he actually used these soldiers and horses to test the general with his backhand." Lin Xiaodao was a little uncomfortable, and Le Yingqing, who was sitting next to him, opened her eyes wide, staring at him directly, staring at him with a heartbeat.

Chen Ziqian shook his head and said, "It's not Zeng Yuanqi, the one who can come up with this kind of trick is the dog thing in Zhao Wengong." ”

As soon as Le Yingqing heard this, the expression on her face suddenly became strange, and she felt more and more magical when she looked at Chen Ziqian's eyes.

As the head of the people, such vulgar words came out of his mouth, which was in line with what Lin Xiaodao said.

It's just that there should be no problem with this strategy of using soldiers, Guanxian is the gateway to Lelin, and if you take Guanxian County, you can go straight to Lelin County, and you can enter the surrounding counties, which is completely in line with the way of using soldiers, why is it a loss?

"Yingqing is puzzled, please advise adults......" Le Yingqing opened her mouth and was about to ask, but was stopped by Le Jinghui.

"Little sister!" Le Jinghui glared, and immediately pleaded with Chen Ziqian: "Forgive me, my little sister has not seen much of the world in the countryside all the year round, please don't blame me." ”

"It doesn't matter." Chen Ziqian smiled slightly, but he also understood Le Yingqing's incomprehension, and immediately explained: "The reason why Zhao Wengong's plan was lost was mainly because he wanted to take this opportunity to weaken the general's strength and consume the old army of Pingyong first, which could not only avoid the general's response in the camp, but also use the general's power to seek the land of Guanxian County, and at the same time try the general's loyalty. ”

"That's why I don't know how to deal with it." Le Jinghui has commanded the army for many years, so he naturally understands the deep meaning.

Le Yingqing is also smart, and she understands it as soon as she hears it, but she doesn't think there is anything wrong, but nods quite approvingly.

Chen Ziqian was a little crying and laughing at the reaction of this sister, his brother was calculated to this point, and he was about to go to the battlefield in person, how calm is his heart?

"This matter needs to be decided as soon as possible, although the lowly post promised to send troops on the surface, but in fact did not make any arrangements, the time is pressing, and the lowly post is worried that it will change later." Le Jinghui said with a serious face.

Chen Ziqian nodded and pondered, this matter came suddenly, and it was quite tricky.

Sending troops is to fight for Zeng Yuanqi, and the loss of troops will be certain.

But if he didn't send troops, he didn't have a suitable reason, so he rashly disobeyed, and with Zeng Yuanqi's character, he could cut down Le Jinghui in minutes, and even the family members who were placed in Peilai were in danger.

This will not work, and that will not work, so there is only one way left to counterattack.

But the time was so hurried, and Zeng Yuanqi's 80,000 soldiers and horses were stationed outside Pingyong City, without Anyi's help to disperse Zeng Yuanqi's troops, the 40,000 soldiers and horses that had just arrived would inevitably be eaten by Zeng Yuanqi.

The slightest mistake is a bloody battle, difficult!

"In this way, the top priority at the moment is to stabilize Zeng Yuanqi, and when the general goes back, he will prepare to meet the needs of the expedition according to Zeng Yuanqi's intentions, ask Zeng Yuanqi for more grain and grass, and ensure that the whole army has at least three days' rations at any time."

Chen Ziqian thought for a while and said: "I will try my best to help you build momentum, and when you arrive in Guanxian, you can delay it, and if you can't delay it, you can fight casually, and you must create a casual illusion for the enemy that you are dissatisfied with Zeng Yuanqi and that the whole army has no fighting spirit, so that the enemy will relax his vigilance and feel contempt." ”

"Does the lord want to send troops? But if he copes with it like this, Zeng Yuanqi knows that he is afraid that he will be blamed, what if he cuts off our army's food and grass in a fit of anger? Le Jinghui frowned tightly and followed the analysis of hidden dangers in all aspects.

Chen Ziqian said with a smile: "This is my intention to let you bring more grain and grass, this is called showing weakness to strength, so that the enemy thinks you are vulnerable, and after Zeng Yuan cut off your grain and grass, you are coming to lure the snake out of the hole, so that the soldiers can play a mutiny, so that the defenders can be lured out of the city, and the defenders of the city defense are not worried, you have the advantage of 40,000 soldiers and horses, and you are afraid that you will not be able to take a crown county?" ”

"Showing weakness to strength?" Le Jinghui's eyes lit up, it was the first time he had heard of such a novel strategy.

Lin Xiaodao's face couldn't help but show a touch of heat, in terms of resourcefulness, he really hadn't seen anyone who could be compared to Chen Ziqian, not even Luo Taibai.

Le Yingqing was also quite amazed when she heard such a deployment, and what was even more surprising was that such an extraordinary art of war, a teenager actually made it easy, and it just met the current conditions.

After all, her brother had just surrendered to Zeng Yuanqi, and the instability of the army was explained, and it was normal for her to be forcibly sent out to work for her life, and to be dissatisfied.

If you hadn't sat here and heard it with your own ears, if you really encountered this situation on the battlefield, everyone would have contempt for it.

In this way, won't Guanxian become a bag?

This...... It's scary to think about!
