Liu Zhiyuan actually sent a large army south to rescue Dengzhou. According to the report of the spies, Liu Zhiyuan sent the privy deputy envoy Guo Wei to personally command more than 60,000 troops to the south, and after converging with the Gaoxing Zhou Department, the strength has reached more than 80,000 people, and if you add the Ma Quanjie Department in the southeast side of Miyang, the strength is close to 100,000. When the Chu army came out of Jiangling, there were a total of 60,000 troops, in addition to the 10,000 Zhu Yuan troops who attacked Suizhou, Fuzhou, Anzhou and other places, there were 50,000 people left, all the way to surrender and rebel, although the bloody battle with the Khitan, the strength was reduced, but the total number of people did not decrease but increased, and it was already close to 90,000 people, but after the expansion of the territory of the Chu army, it was necessary to stay and garrison, plus the newly surrendered soldiers, the army was unstable and the combat power was not strong. The Chu army that arrived in Fangcheng this time was only 50,000 people, and the real elite was only 30,000.

The situation suddenly became dire.

"The micro-ministers are not clear, so that our army has been frustrated, please punish the king." In the handsome tent, Li Xiang stood up and knelt down to plead guilty.

Ma Yun came back to his senses and glanced at everyone, except for Shentu Congjian and a few people, Liu Yantao and they were all a little depressed. Ma Yun smiled, stood up, took two steps forward to help Li Xiang and said, "Mr. Li, how can I blame you?" You are my Great Chu's marching Sima, the privy deputy, and not a fortune teller, how can you calculate clearly? Today's matter is not that Mr. does not know what is going on. Mr. has been training the three armies, training into different combat formations on various occasions, and in the battle of the Northern Expedition, he has repeatedly offered strange strategies, even if there are small mistakes, they are also flawed. Ma Yun said and glanced at Liu Yantao and Peng Shigao, and said: "The white-clothed army is the elite of the Han army, and the name of being good at fighting is rumored all over the world. Under their surprise attack, it was still difficult for our Chu army not to panic and fight desperately, if it weren't for General Liu and the generals who did not spare their lives and were not afraid of death, how could they inflict heavy losses on the white-clothed army? The main responsibility for this setback lies with the widow. Under the winning streak, the widow will inevitably be a little empty-eyed and arrogant. The three armies have lost their vigilance, and this is what they are today. Ma Yun spoke softly and slowly, putting all the responsibility on himself, so that the generals who were doing it were secretly grateful in their hearts.

"The Han army is coming very quickly, our army has just received a report from the secret agent, and the white-clothed army has actually arrived. Hit our army by surprise. Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, so it doesn't matter. Besides, in my opinion, although the Han army is elite, compared with our Chu army, the number of victories and defeats is probably five or five. Today's battle can be said to be a confused battle, and it was fought inexplicably. Although our army has suffered some losses, hasn't the white-clothed army been frightened back by us? Generals, don't lose your sharpness, let's discuss, what should our army do next? Ma Yun's peaceful appearance and confident expression made the hearts of the generals in the tent feel a lot more settled. Yes, this time because he was not prepared, his team was too long, and if he was fully prepared, his Han army might not be able to please him.

"Of course, continue to fight, today's battle is confused, and when the main force of the Han army comes, we will fight with them again." Shen Tu said with a strong breath. Today he was quite wronged, at the beginning he had few soldiers, suffered a loss, and finally surrounded Gao Huaide, and it became a boiled duck, but the duck actually grew wings again, fluttering and running away. He didn't feel aggrieved.

Ma Yun smiled slightly and did not speak.

Liu Yantao said in a deep voice: "King, the new arrival of the Han army happened to catch us off guard. Judging from the heart, the number is equal, and they may not be able to defeat our Great Chu, but the Han Dynasty has a vast area and sufficient soldiers, so it is really unwise to rashly set up such a strong enemy, and I am afraid that it will be harmful and unprofitable to our Great Chu. ”

Peng Shigao also persuaded: "The king, General Liu, you are right." Let's negotiate peace with the Han army. ”

Ma Yun didn't say anything, and asked Li Xiang with a smile: "What does Mr. think?" ”

Li Xiang said with some gratitude: "King, the minister still adheres to the original view, the internal troubles of the Han Dynasty are heavy, even if he goes south, he will definitely not fight to the death with us, at this time, our army not only can not retreat, but should continue to march, set up camp in Fangcheng County, drag the Han army, and wait for them to come to us to negotiate peace." ”

"Wonderful, Li Sima, you're so right. That's how it should be. Shen Tu Congjian's loud voice reappeared.

Liu Yantao was a little anxious, stood up regardless of the pain and said, "King." Now that the army is exhausted, if we continue to fight, I'm afraid... Our Da Chu doesn't have much capital. The current strength can be said to be the elite of our Great Chu Kingdom. It's not easy to train soldiers. My minister thinks that instead of fighting to the death with the Han army, it is better for us to take a step back, let's turn the horse's head, destroy the vulnerable Lingnan first, strengthen ourselves, and wait for the world to change, and it is not too late to go on the Northern Expedition. ”

To pick persimmons, pick up soft pinch. Liu Yantao's words moved Ma Yun a little. What does the world depend on? Relying on financial resources, without sufficient food and grass, the city cannot be defended, and the troops cannot be recruited; The second relies on elite soldiers, which refers to soldiers who have been trained for a long time, have been on the battlefield, and have killed people. Six or seven out of ten of the elites of Da Chu are in Dengzhou, if they are defeated... The consequences are unimaginable... I think how brave Dou Jiande was back then, the 100,000-strong army crisscrossed Hebei, and no one was invincible, but since he was defeated by Li Shimin in Heyang, he collapsed and fell.

"Great King, General Liu. There is no doubt that Han is strong and Chu is weak. But if our army suffers such a small setback, and we negotiate peace with the Han army, then the Han army will definitely look down on me. After a year and a half, I was rich and weak in Dachu, and the Han Dynasty was strong and poor. My Da Chu is like a child, holding gold in his hand and passing through the downtown area, can the Han Dynasty not be red and unmoved? The minister dared to conclude that even if today's peace negotiation is successful, I am afraid that the northern border of Dachu will never be peaceful. Great, today, our army must not withdraw from the army to negotiate peace, but should march into the army, make a decisive battle, force the Han army, and let them take the initiative to negotiate peace with us, this is the way to long-term peace and stability. Li Xiang said categorically.

This one... Jack Ma hesitated. Zhao Kuangyin is here, will Chai Rong be far away? In addition, Guo Wei is not given for nothing, this Guo Wei is the Taizu of the Later Zhou Dynasty, a well-known figure comparable to Zhu Wen and **. He marched into Fangcheng by himself, in case he angered Guo Wei and made the decisive battle between Chu and Han. Win (unlikely in the current situation), kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred, and cheapen Du Chongwei in vain... defeated, just like Liu Yantao said, his old book is going to be lost... If we put the south first and then the north, the strategy of one China will have to be postponed for a few years, and the consequences of the postponement will be even more unimaginable. Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin, no matter who is the emperor of these two people, they are still cats in Jingchu, just waiting to be cleaned up. After being cleaned up, there is still an infamy in history -- a small handful of reactionary elements, stubbornly resisting, and vainly trying to obstruct the historical process of the motherland's reunification.

No matter what Ma Yun was thinking about, Li Xiao knelt down and said, "King, may I ask, what is the king's ambition?" ”

Without waiting for Ma Yun to answer, Li Xiang replied by himself: "The king's ambition is known to the ministers. The king, treat the people well, pay attention to farming, recruit warriors, and train elite soldiers, in order to sweep the **, together with China, end a hundred years of war, and return a bright and prosperous world in the region. The ministers are not far away, following the king, exhausted, not afraid of sacrifice, nothing more than climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, hoping to follow the king to achieve a career and leave his name for eternity. After the Northern Expedition, our army was invincible, invincible, morale was victorious, and the military spirit was available. Even today, there is no harm in encountering small setbacks. I have great Chu's basic strength, and I have not suffered a little loss. The minister thought that the retreat and march were still the turning point of my Great Chu. As soon as the army retreats, if the Han army does not negotiate peace with us, but takes advantage of the victory to chase forward, may I ask the king whether to fight or retreat? The morale of the fighters has been lost, and the army has no will to fight; Retreat, retreat to Xiangzhou, or retreat to Jiangling, or even retreat to Changsha? ”

"King, generals, you think that the Han Dynasty is strong, and we are not easy to offend, but we don't know that the Han Dynasty is troubled internally and externally. Jin minister An Chongrong once said such a rebellious sentence: The Son of Heaven has strong ears and strong ears. Although Liu Zhiyuan entered Bianjing, Du Chongwei, Li Shouzhen and others in Hebei may not sell his account, and the Khitans will not invade the Central Plains again because of the establishment of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty looked strong, like a fierce tiger, but this tiger was mired in the quagmire, and if he did not jump out of the quagmire for a day, he would not hurt anyone. Everyone in the world knows that our Great Chu is weak, and it is precisely because of the weakness of Great Chu that our appetite will not be big, and the Han Dynasty will not list us as the first-class enemy, what we want is nothing more than Dengzhou and Tangzhou, but what Du Chongwei wants is the whole world. How could the Han army ignore the great danger of their henchmen and fight to the death with us? Chen dared to predict that our army was advancing north, and Guo Wei would immediately negotiate peace with us, and if we retreated, Dengzhou and Xiangzhou might not be guaranteed. ”

"Since the Han Dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, then Li Sima, our army retreats, the Han army should be happy, how can it be pursued?" Liu Yantao said.

"Have you ever heard that a great army goes out and dies without a problem? Guo Wei's vigorous coming, in fact, is a kind of temptation for us, if we are tough, he will naturally soften, if we retreat, he will increase the ambition of the wolf. Great King, since the overcoming of Nanping, Great Chu borders the Central Plains. Turning each other on the other side, that's a matter of time or time. If we show the strength of our Great Chu to the Han Dynasty, we can let the Han Dynasty stay honestly for a few years, leaving us a rare period of peace. ”

Ma Yun's eyes wandered, and he never made up his mind.

"Staggering", I saw Li Xiang kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up, backhanded from Shen Tu on the side of the sword from the waist of Jian, crossed the sword around the neck, and said: "King, if you withdraw today, Da Chu will definitely not report it." The minister is willing to kill himself in front of the army, and he does not want to see the day when the city of Changsha is broken. "As you speak, you have to do it.

Ma Yun suddenly stood up, and hurriedly said: "Sir, wait, widow, it's up to you." Command the three armies to enter the square city! ”
