Baihogang is still too far north, and more than half of the people and horses in the Red Mountain will be in Baihogang, and they are women and children who are slow.

The cavalry of the Liang army moved like the wind and rushed like thunder.

Without worrying that Da Chu could use warships to mobilize troops and horses along the rivers to intercept and blockade, once the cavalry of the Liang army crossed the Huai River and headed south, the areas on the north bank of the Yangtze River that were not heavily defended by troops were very likely to fall under its control.

Whether it was Han Qian or Feng Yi, at this time, they were not sure that the scouts and spies of the Liang army lurking in the Jianghuai region really did not notice the existence of the Red Mountain Society in Baiho Gang.

It will take ten days to half a month at the earliest for the Xuzhou Water Camp to reach Jinling, and the men and horses of the Chishan Society, as well as women and children in Baihufeng, need to withdraw to the west bank of Hangou in advance at this time to prevent trouble.

This is also the main reason why Feng Yi rushed over to see Wang Wenqian.

Without Wang Wenqian's consent, how could the thousands of members of the Chishan Society and their families retreat to the west bank of Hangou in advance without being attacked by Huaidong's soldiers and horses?

"As my family expected, the walled cities of the Liang State in Yingzhou, Xuzhou and other places have been scattered and stationed in a large number of cavalry at this time. At this time, the Huai River has formed thin ice, and there will be two days of heavy snowfall, and the weather will continue to be so cold for three or five days, and the river ice will generally seal the Huai River. And once the Huai River is completely frozen, the cavalry of the Liang army may be able to drink horses on the banks of the Yangtze River between day and night, and then the Chishan Society can only take refuge in Yangzhou. Feng Yi said humbly.

"What about Han Qian's others, but they are still in Chuzhou?" Wang Wenqian was not so easy to bluff, stared at Feng Yi and asked.

"My family expected that the sailor might be defeated, thinking that when the Liang army crossed the Huai River and drank the banks of the Horse River, the imperial court might transfer reinforcements from Xuzhou, so when the sailor went north through Hangou, he returned to Xuzhou in advance for mobilization." Feng Yi said quietly.

"When Jinling makes up his mind and sends a decree to Xuzhou to transfer reinforcements, will it be delayed until the year of the donkey?" Yin Peng interjected anxiously.

In Yin Peng's view, with the degree of suspicion of the imperial court towards Xuzhou, I am afraid that it will be delayed until the main force of Huaixi's attack on Chaozhou has suffered heavy losses and the situation is so bad that it is possible to make up his mind to transfer the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou and other places to the east to enter the king of Qin.

And when Han Qian received the holy decree, and then gathered troops and horses from Xuzhou to march east along the river, at least another month passed.

If the situation is really bad to this point, in this month's time, the Liang army has no other threat on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and after joining the Shouzhou army, it may not be in a hurry to cross the river to directly attack Jinling, but most of them will take advantage of the situation to advance eastward and attack Huaidong.

And at this time, even if Han Qian does not remember his past grudges and is willing to help Huaidong, with the little soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, how much pressure can he share for Huaidong?

"General Zhao, what do you think?" Wang Wenqian pondered for a while, did not ask Feng Yi any more questions, but looked at Zhao Zhen and asked.

He also disagreed with the withdrawal of the Chishan Society to the west of Hangou and relied on the soldiers and horses of Yangzhou to temporarily gain a foothold, so he wanted to ask Zhao Zhen's opinion.

Zhao Zhen frowned and stared at Feng Yi for a long time.

During the Jinling War, Zhao Zhen's troops suffered the heaviest losses under the German army of Zuoguang.

If it weren't for the final decision of King Yang Yuan, he would not be happy to see that Chishan would gain a foothold on the west bank of Fanliang Lake, but at this time, thinking of the possible situation that Feng Yi speculated that Liang Jun was about to drink the Yangtze River, he thought for a long time before saying: "The people and horses of the Chishan Society may be able to withdraw to the west of Hangou first, but how to deal with it in the future, we still have to send someone to ask His Highness." ”

"Good!" Wang Wenqian immediately spread out the map of Yangzhou on the case.

There is no high mountain in Yangzhou, the main peak of Shugang is only ten or twenty zhang high, Shugang crosses the ditch to the southwest, there is a main peak more than forty zhang high in more than 40 miles away, but the first peak of Yangzhou.

This is also a key point for Changguo Gong Li Pu to send troops and horses to station as soon as possible after they withdrew without saying hello yesterday.

If it is really as Feng Yi predicted, the Liang army may cross the Huai River from the west of Hongzepu at any time and move south, and then it will join the rebels of Anning Palace, and the cavalry and horse infantry army that can be mobilized in the early stage will be more than 100,000 horses.

Once the main force of the forbidden army on the north bank under the command of Li Zhihe suffered a heavy setback, the Yangzhou defenders had no way to establish a strong stronghold in the mountains and block the enemy troops to the west of the mountains.

Wang Wenqian discussed with Yin Peng and Zhao Zhen for a while, and finally decided that they would allow the people of the Chishan Society in Jiangbei to temporarily move south from Baijiegang to Zhushan.

If the situation is completely out of control, the soldiers and horses of Yangzhou can quickly withdraw to the east bank of the ditch, and the men and horses of the Chishan Society can also retreat eastward, and they only need to walk more than 20 miles of post roads to cross the ditch.

If the situation does not deteriorate, they are not afraid of what waves the Chishan Society can set off there.

Even if Wang Wenqian's arrangement meant to monitor the congregation on the north bank of the Chishan Society, it was only more than 20 miles south of the Yangtze River, and it was one of the best transit places for the Chishan Society in a short period of time. Otherwise, six or seven thousand people would be exposed unsheltered on the beach on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and their situation would be quite dangerous.

After negotiating this, Wang Wenqian directly assigned an official to leave with Feng Yi to deal with the matter, and Zhao Zhen then took Hu Wei out of the city to adjust the defensive deployment in the west of Yangzhou.

At this time, the sky was dark, and Wang Wenqian left Yin Peng to dine in the back house.

"You really don't need to send someone to inform Li Zhihe?" Yin Peng sat down at the table and asked with some hesitation.

Standing in Huaidong's position, the main force of the forbidden army on the north bank can fight with the Shouzhou army, which is what they like to see the most, but at this time, the main force of the forbidden army on the north bank of Huaidong and the north bank is a cold relationship.

If the main force of the forbidden army on the north bank could maintain sufficient vigilance and not be severely damaged, Huaidong would not need to resist the advance of the Liang army in the south alone.

At this time, instead of expecting reinforcements from the pitifully few Xuzhou soldiers, it is better to hope that the main force of the forbidden army on the north bank can preserve its strength.

Wang Wenqian put it on the wooden chopstick and said: "The main force of the naval division suffered heavy losses in Hongzepu, and we don't need to remind him, Li Zhihe and the ministers of the court can think of the risks brought by the Liang army's crossing of Huai to the south. The safest choice is naturally for the main force of the forbidden army assembled outside Chaozhou City on the north bank at this time to temporarily abandon the plan to storm Chaozhou City, and withdraw to Shuzhou and Chuzhou to hold on to it in case of trouble. However, what kind of choice the forbidden army on the north bank will make in the end, not only can we decide, but Li Zhihe, the head of the forbidden army's forward Zhuxing battalion, cannot be the master, and in the end it depends on the decision made by the DPRK and Yang Yuanpu. However, Li Xiu, the minister of Changguo, led the cavalry to Yandun Mountain, but he hurried back to Jinling with Zheng Chang, the emperor in the imperial history, and I think he will probably advocate the capture of Chaozhou City before the Liang army moves south. In this way, he can bear less responsibility for the heavy losses suffered by the main force of the sailors in Hongzepo......"

Yin Peng nodded, if the forbidden army on the north bank gave up attacking Chaozhou City at this time, Changguo Gong would not only have to bear the responsibility for the destruction of the main force of the water division, but also bear all the responsibility for the defeat of the Chaozhou battle, which would make the forces of the Changguo Mansion suffer unprecedented heavy blows, and maybe his daughter Li Yao might not be able to keep the queen's position.

Chang Guogong hurried back

Jinling's intentions are not difficult to guess.

Thinking of this, Yin Peng said worriedly:

"Your Majesty is young and vigorous, and he is not willing to suffer such a heavy blow, and he may really support the idea of Changguo Gong to storm Chaozhou City before the Liang army moves south."

"The problem is here, Huaidong is really eager to speak out on this matter, it will only prompt this son to take risks, what he learned from Han Qian in the past is that the sword takes the wrong path, and the main force of the sailor has been hit hard, and he is also deeply affected." Wang Wenqian said.

"Han Qian really returned to Xuzhou?" Yin Peng asked with some suspicion.

"Maybe back, maybe not, who knows for sure at this time?" Wang Wenqian said noncommittally.

No matter how the situation changes in the future, he must first further mobilize the military potential of Yangzhou, and leave first.

Wang Wenqian always wanted to maintain his composure, after Yin Peng left, he still took a small sip of the side dishes cooked by the concubine herself, drank a pot of rice wine, and then put down the cup in his hand and asked Wang Jun who was standing aside: "Jun'er, do you think Han Qian is sure to persuade Li Zhihe to resist the decree and not attack Chaozhou City?" ”

"Ahh Unexpectedly, his father suddenly asked about this, Wang Jun almost knocked over the tea bowl in his hand in a hurry, and looked at his father with wide eyes, as if he didn't hear clearly what his father was asking just now.

Wang Wenqian stared at Wang Jun's eyes.

"Chaozhou is less than 200 miles away from Jinling, except for the Zuo Longque Army, which is Li Zhihe's descendant, the left and right Wuwei Army and Zhuzhou soldiers are only controlled by Li Zhihe - my father doesn't believe that Li Zhihe dares to resist the decree or can resist the decree and act without permission, why bother asking his daughter this question?" Wang Jun said.

"Han Qian should have sent someone back to Xuzhou at this time to order the water diversion camp to go east, right?" Wang Wenqian asked again.

"Daddy thinks that the Marquis of Qianyang is a traitor, didn't the Marquis of Qianyang wait until the imperial court puts down his arrogant and domineering posture, and then lead reinforcements along the river, so that he can influence the situation in the court? Why does he need not to raise troops and leave a false pretext that makes people sick and suspicious? Wang Jun said.

"How could Han Qian conclude that the sailors would be defeated when they entered Hongzepu? Why did he predict so early that everything was a conspiracy of Liang Jun? Wang Wenqian asked.

"Daddy has tried to find out that his daughter has so many words, and my daughter really can't guess this." Wang Jun said.

Wang Jun kept silent, but Wang Wenqian had no intention of letting her go, and said: "Once the situation is irreparable, not to mention that the hinterland area east of Yangzhou City will be invaded by enemy cavalry, only to the west of Yangzhou City, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the countryside, whether to mention going to the east to evacuate or enter the city fortress to avoid war, it is all in Jun'er's ......words."

"Daddy, why do you need to fight wits and courage with your daughter," Wang Jun pursed his lips and said, "No matter what decision the Marquis of Qianyang makes, the west of Yangzhou City may be invaded by enemy cavalry - what Daddy hesitates is, but whether to use heavy troops in the west of Hangou, Daddy hesitates only to take this opportunity to peep into Chuzhou." ”

Wang Wenqian sighed secretly, what he hesitated at this time was indeed whether to send more elite combat forces near the mountain, after all, after the situation deteriorated, especially the main force of the forbidden army on the north bank was worried about annihilation, Yang Yuanpu was very likely to succumb to the situation and transfer reinforcements from Huaidong.

This is also a good opportunity for Huaidong soldiers and horses to officially enter and occupy Chuzhou.

It's just that the main force of the Great Chu Water Division was destroyed, and Han Qian's intentions could not be figured out, and the Huaidong soldiers and horses entered Chuzhou too early, and the risk they took was too great......
