Chapter 141: Gambling with Lao Tzu's Future?
Disaster fell from the sky, I thought I could pick up a bargain for nothing, but no one caught it, but the shadow guards under him folded into several of them.
Sure enough, it is unlikely that a pie will fall from the sky, but it is even more likely that a knife will fall.
Chen Ziqian turned back in a gray manner, and asked Xiong Ji to properly settle the wounded and killed brothers.
This time, fifty to one, he just slashed Chu Taiyuan a few times, and it seemed that there was nothing big to do, but the shadow guard on his side injured nine and died.
Shame, Luo Huixin asked about it after worshipping, Chen Ziqian was not even embarrassed to say.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt strange, why did Chu Taiyuan appear here inexplicably?
The Qingyang Rebels had just finished the assassination, and according to normal operations, Chu Taiyuan and Wang Zibo should strike while the iron was hot now, could it be that they wanted more than one county?
"I'm going, are you so ambitious!?" Chen Ziqian had a vague hunch that Wang Zibo and Chu Taiyuan would sing on stage, and their plot must be not small.
First, the Qingyang Righteous Army was used to assassinate, and then Chu Taiyuan appeared in Shangrao County, from Dingfeng Qingyang to Shangrao Pushan, which can fully cover the land of the four counties.
Wang Zibo and Chu Taiyuan are planning to take the entire Ningzhou into their pockets?
Taking advantage of the fact that the assassin Shi went north to use troops, and the Taishou and Shi clans in various parts of the territory controlled the real power, they were to win over the Qingyang Righteous Army, and to assassinate the head of the Lu family, the most powerful opponent, with Wang Zibo's family background, it was really not impossible to take the opportunity to seize Ningzhou.
It's just that this step is too big to avoid it, aren't you afraid of pulling eggs?
Chen Ziqian, accompanied by Luo Huixin and Qiu Muwan, sat in the shade and pondered for a while, feeling quite stressed for a while.
If Ningzhou really falls into the hands of Wang Zibo and Chu Taiyuan, I am afraid that Tongzhou, a friendly neighbor, will be guilty in the future.
"Lord!" Xiong Ji, who was busy placing the wounded, hurriedly ran over and reported: "Luo Changshi sent someone to send the battle report urgently. ”
"Huh!?" Chen Ziqian raised his eyebrows, and when he heard this, a bad premonition immediately appeared in his heart.
With Luo Taibai's ability, he will not bother him easily, and once he comes, it will definitely not be a trivial matter, not to mention that this is still a battle report sent by someone urgently.
After taking the leather and spreading it out, Luo Taibai briefly explained the matter of the stragglers making trouble in the territory, and at the same time analyzed the current situation in Yong'an, and finally provided two strategies for him to choose.
At present, the counties of Yong'an have entered a state of emergency preparation, and the idle soldiers and horses in the county have also set up checkpoints everywhere, as long as the counties of the counties are increased, those scattered soldiers and soldiers can be completely solved in less than ten days.
But this strategy is not foolproof, because Jing Ce Nian is still eyeing the territory of Yong'an, once the troops are divided into counties, Jing Ce Nian may take advantage of the situation to attack, and then I am afraid that Jing Ce Nian will resurrect and cause the situation to be completely reversed.
Second: put aside those stragglers for the time being, with 20,000 soldiers and horses in Anyi, and unite the troops of the three counties under Lin Xiaodao to use troops in Zhouxian, Gangtou and Yuqiu at the same time, Anyi can divide 10,000 troops to occupy Yumen Mountain to resist Huaihua reinforcements, and eat the more than 10,000 horses in Jing Ce Nian in one fell swoop.
Similarly, this strategy also has huge hidden dangers, first, no one cares about the stragglers will definitely cause trouble everywhere, and when the time comes, it will be those ordinary people who will suffer, and Yong'an may not be in chaos.
Second, Jing Ce Nian obviously intended to force them to fight a decisive battle, and he dared to act like this when he was weak, and it is unknown whether there were other back-hands left in his hands, and the probability of winning the attack was no more than fifty percent at most.
Even if this battle is won in the end, the aftermath is very obvious, which is equivalent to completely tearing his face with Tongzhou Thorn History, and when Thorn Shi returns north, Yongan will definitely be unable to resist the anger of Thorn Shi.
The two strategies have their own pros and cons, and Jing Ce Nian can be said to be gambling his life on his Chen Ziqian's future.
"Old fox, this hand is ruthless!" Chen Ziqian squinted his eyes slightly, he really couldn't slack off against Jing Ce Nian and other celebrities, and a slight gap could become an opportunity for the other party to reverse the tables.
"Xiong Ji, you go and make arrangements, leave a few brothers to escort the wounded back, and the others will immediately rush back to Yong'an with me." Chen Ziqian put away the leather, explained a few words to Luo Huixin and Qiu Muwan, and hurriedly set off with the team.
Now that his identity has been exposed, he is afraid that it will be troublesome to continue to wander around in Ningzhou, after all, Chu Taiyuan is not so easy to deal with.
Chen Ziqian's action this time was very decisive, and in the next two days, the team rushed back to Yong'an non-stop, and arrived at the location of Hupan Mountain smoothly.
Lelin Taishou Cao Zhiyong has retreated and returned, stationing 30,000 troops in Guanxian County, always guarding against Zeng Yuanqi's counterattack.
At the same time, after Zeng Yuanqi occupied Pingyong, he was not in a hurry to provoke another war, but immediately collected the counties in the territory and began to govern internal affairs.
It seems that Zeng Yuanqi has indeed learned to keep a low profile this time, which has greatly relieved the pressure on the Yongan border.
With this information, Chen Ziqian can now rest assured that he can mobilize Fang Changping's department.
Although the 20,000 soldiers and horses here have been busy training recently, they are all active soldiers, and they have been fighting under Le Jinghui before, and they are experienced veterans, and they can return to combat as long as they simply adjust and run in.
With 20,000 horses, the two strategies provided by Luo Taibai can be combined.
Chen Ziqian not only wants to eliminate those stragglers, but also never let Jing Ce have a good time.
Before, he was polite for the sake of the other party is a celebrity, but now that Jing Ce is coming to find death, don't blame him, a junior descendant, for being ruthless.
In the Hupanshan military camp, Chen Ziqian sat on the main seat and summoned the generals of Fang Changping's department to enter the account to discuss the matter.
After these days of rectification, Fang Changping, the commander of the left capital, has all been fully configured.
In the team of 20,000 people, there is one military Sima Chen Tong, and three other Simas, namely Zhou Zhuoyun, Ma Xuan, and Zhang Qiheng.
Among them, Zhou Zhuoyun led 2,000 cavalry, Ma Xuan led 8,000 crossbowmen, Zhang Qiheng led the rest of the footmen, and the three battalions all obeyed Chen Tong's orders.
In the camp tent, Chen Ziqian didn't talk nonsense, briefly explained the current situation of Yong'an, and then directly deployed: "Fang Changping listened to the order and ordered you to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to stay in Hupan Mountain to deter Pingyong." ”
"Chen Tong listened to the order and ordered you to lead 15,000 soldiers and horses, divide the troops into three routes, and immediately go to Zaoyang, Shitai and Wuling counties, and use these three counties as a benchmark to clean up all the stragglers in the territory along the way.
"Whoa!"
Everyone received the order in unison, and all the troops immediately set out.
Chen Ziqian didn't plan to stay in Hupan Mountain for a long time, and sent someone to escort Luo Huixin and Qiu Muwan back to the county seat first, and at the same time, he personally took the Shadow Guard straight to Anyi.
There is Fang Changping's deterrence on the side of Hupan Mountain, and the Zeng Yuanqi clan is still in hand, so there is no need to worry about any more trouble.
Handing over the stragglers who were in turmoil in the territory to Chen Tong was enough to ensure that nothing went wrong, and what remained in the end was a head-on battle with Jing Ce Nian.
Chen Ziqian wanted to see what the old fox Jing Ce Nian had left, and he didn't hesitate to gamble his future with his own life!
