"Du Hu, the Holy Will, sent by the Jinyi Guard."

When a general handed Li Hong a note, the latter quickly opened it, and after seeing the contents of the note, Li Hong was relieved.

Then Li Hong asked Wang Jian and Liu Rengong to come and tell them what was on the note.

"So fast?" Liu Rengong was a little surprised.

"Now that we have the will of God, we will be able to do it. The Holy Lord ordered us to deal with it ourselves, since the Khitans have invaded the border, we naturally have no need to hesitate, we should gather troops and horses and attack decisively. With the permission of the Holy One, Li Hong showed his courage.

Since you want to fight, you must fight well and beat the Khitans hard.

"Li Duhu, what does the Holy Lord's will say?" Wang Jian asked.

Liu Rengong didn't know what was going on, but Wang Jian knew that it had only been less than ten days, and it must have been Jinyiwei's flying pigeon message to arrive so soon.

In fact, it is really a flying pigeon to transmit a message, and you can go back and forth in four or five days, but the imperial court needs to confirm the authenticity of the news.

Therefore, after Wang Jian sent people to urgently deliver the report for 800 miles arrived in Chang'an, Chang'an Jinyiwei's carrier pigeon set off for Youzhou.

Li Hong glanced at Wang Jian and Liu Rengong, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty ordered me to be the commander-in-chief, Wang Dutong and Deputy Envoy Liu assisted, and Deputy Envoy Liu temporarily led Lu Longjie to stay, responsible for mobilizing Lu Long's army to cooperate with this operation. ”

Wang Jian nodded, not surprised, but Liu Rengong was overjoyed.

After the festival stays, it means that after a while, he will really be the festival master, can this not be happy?

"Li Duhu, how do you want to fight?" Wang Jian asked.

"The current battle report is that the Khitan has surrounded Pingzhou and Yingzhou, so we must go to the rescue of the two states, and we can't let the two states fall into the hands of the Khitan." Li Hong said seriously.

"This is not easy, it is reported that there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses besieging the two states, the main force is the Khitan, and the other is the Xi tribe, Shatuo and other tribes. Although I have 40,000 cavalry, there are only more than 10,000 cavalry, most of whom are state and town soldiers. Wang Jian was a little worried.

If Wang Jian had 40,000 forbidden troops in his hands, he would naturally not be afraid of the Khitan.

No matter how strong the Khitan is, how much stronger can it be than the Uighurs?

However, there is a big gap between the state and town soldiers and the forbidden army, whether it is in terms of training or equipment, there is a clear gap.

Li Hong pondered for a while and looked at Liu Rengong, "Deputy Envoy Liu, how many troops can Lu Long mobilize?" ”

Liu Rengong was a little embarrassed, and made a simple estimate, "Back to Li Duhu, I can't command the states for the time being, and there are not many troops that can be mobilized." ”

"I'm talking about how many troops can the entire Lulong send to fight?" Li Hong was a little displeased.

"Back to Li Duhu, if you really want to mobilize the entire Lulong, 100,000 can be transferred, but you still have to guard the place, and the states will not bring all the elites."

"Deputy Envoy Liu, now that you have been appointed as the queen of the town, you have to show the courage of a town festival envoy. An army of 50,000 must have 20,000 cavalry, this is the task given to you, and it must be assembled in Jizhou within ten days.

If anyone does not cooperate, the Pontic Protector will teach them how to be a minister. Since the Holy God has put me in charge of this war, I have the power to cut first and then play, and whoever dares to disobey the order will not be spared. Li Hong said murderously.

"Li Duhu rest assured, he will definitely gather the 50,000 troops in the next place!" Liu Rengong's expression froze.

However, he was also secretly happy in his heart, maybe this was his opportunity to control Lu Long, and take the opportunity to solve the history of disobedience to him.

After Liu Rengong left, Wang Jian asked Li Hong, "How are you going to fight?" If Lu Long can dispatch an army of 50,000, we will have an army of 120,000, which should be superior to the Khitan in terms of numbers. ”

"Pingzhou and Yingzhou will definitely be rescued, but I still have a plan." Looking at the map, Li Hong pointed to Yanshan, drew a line on the map, and finally stopped at the east of Yingzhou, "I plan to give the Khitan a hard blow." With the 30,000 cavalry of the Anbei Protectorate as a partial division, he went around behind the Khitan army and ambushed the retreating Khitan army. ”

"Ambush the retreating Khitan army? The Khitans are menacing, they won't retreat so easily, right? Wang Jian hesitated.

"It's winter now, which is not conducive to long-term fighting, if the Khitans can't capture Pingzhou and Yingzhou, they will definitely retreat after plundering.

You and I personally led a large army to reinforce Ping and Yingerzhou, so that the Khitans would definitely retreat faster. The army on our front will have a good fight with the Khitans to attract the attention of the Khitans, so as to facilitate the actions of the partial division. Li Hong explained.

"But our army is not familiar with the route of Lulong and Saiwai, how can we ensure that we can go around behind the Khitan army?" Wang Jian hesitated.

Li Hong's eyes were on Lu Long's north, "We are not familiar with it, but someone is familiar with it!" ”

"You mean taunts?" Wang Jian was surprised.

。。。。。。

Li Hong said that he was naturally a Xi person, and he was a Dongxi.

Xixi has been far away from the Xi people's hometown for many years, and the terrain of the Xi people's hometown is naturally not as familiar as Dongxi, and if you want to go around behind the Khitan army, you must street Dongxi's place of residence.

Although most of the tribes of Dongxi are now submissive to the Khitan, the court of Dongxi is still under the control of Turus, and its core 30,000 people are still loyal to the king of Dongxi.

Of course, the current ruler of the Dongxi Royal Court is Meng Zhixiang.

Because of the fiasco, the whole person of Dongxi King Tules has become decadent, and he has aged a lot, and he no longer cares about Dongxi's military and political affairs, and indulges in wine all day long.

But Meng Zhixiang is because he holds the power of the army, and controls ninety percent of the current Dongxi royal court.

As for Shuri and the other sons of Turus, they were basically under house arrest and could not leave the royal court or participate in the daily affairs of the royal court.

Here, when Liu Rengong sent someone to bring Li Hong's people to the Dongxi Royal Court and told him of his intentions, Meng Zhixiang's whole person became excited.

The arrival of the envoy of the Tang Army gave him hope for revenge, although it was not his personal revenge.

Moreover, Meng Zhixiang also promised to persuade the black car room Wei to send troops to assist.

The strength of the Khitan, neither Dongxi nor Heichezi Murowei wants to see it, if they can weaken the strength of the Khitan with the help of the Tang Army, they naturally don't mind falling into the well.

After receiving Meng Zhixiang's assurance, the envoy of the Tang army returned happily, but Kang Yanxiao was puzzled.

"Chief, the current situation in the royal court, if you leave, there will definitely be chaos."

Meng Zhixiang smiled, "I naturally know, so I will leave the matter of assisting the Tang Army to you, you will take two thousand cavalry to lead the way for the Tang Army, and take my handwritten letter to persuade Heichezi Murowei to send troops."

If you can take revenge this time, I will allow you to receive three thousand tents alone. ”

Kang Yanxiao was overjoyed when he heard the news, and he received three thousand accounts alone, which is good news. So he didn't think about it, so he agreed!

"Please rest assured, the last general will be fortunate not to be dishonored!"
