Chapter 146: Plan Ahead
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Although Liu Xiu, Li Tong and others made a detour and delayed for more than ten days on the road, they finally returned to Chungling without danger.
They went straight to Liu Xuan's house. Jiu'er arrived at Chungling one step ahead of Liu Xiu and others, and Liu Jiu had already heard about the Li family.
After everyone sat down in the hall, Liu Xiu said to Liu Xiu Zhengse: "Big brother, Li Gong has an accident, the Li family has been exposed, and our incident has to be greatly advanced." ”
Li Tong and Li Yi glanced at each other, got up, bowed to Liu Xuan, and said, "General, this time it's all because of the negligence of ...... waiting."
Liu Xuan smiled, waved his hand to the two of them, and motioned for them to sit down, he said in a brisk tone: "Actually, I can't wait for a long time, it's okay to get up now!" It's a pity that Li Gong was in trouble! ”
Speaking of this, Liu Xuan said with a gloomy face: "Ji Yuan, Ji Wen, don't worry, you two can rest assured, I will definitely avenge this revenge, Wang Mang must be repaid with blood!" ”
Li Tong's eyes turned red, and he gave Liu Zhuo a deep salute. Li Yi knelt on his knees, kowtowed to Liu Xuan, and said, "Subordinate Li Yi, I am willing to serve the Lord and serve the dogs and horses!" ”
Liu Xiu didn't like Li Yi very much, but Liu Xiu had a very good impression of Li Yi, he walked up to Li Yi, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "I have heard about what Ji Wen did in Wancheng, and I have worked hard for you during this time." ”
Li Yi Zhengse said: "Serving the lord, Ji Wen doesn't feel hard, but it's a pity that when I encountered an ambush in Wancheng and broke through to the outside, all the supplies and most of the brothers were ...... and all are lost in the city. ”
Liu Xuan nodded, indicating that he already knew these things. He pulled Li Yi and sat down again, then looked around at everyone and said, "At present, our brothers are close to two thousand. ”
As soon as these words came out, even Liu Xiu was secretly surprised.
He only knew that the eldest brother no longer had anyone left here, and all those who came to defect were secretly sent to Baishan, and he didn't expect that in such a short period of time, the number of brothers hiding in Baishan was close to two thousand.
Deng Yu and the others' eyes lit up, and they looked at each other, all of them happy. Liu continued: "I believe that it will not be long before we will have 3,000 brothers. ”
Li Tong frowned and said worriedly: "I'm worried that the county army may rush to Chungling at any time to encircle and suppress us." ”
When Liu Xuan heard this, he looked up and smiled, he turned his head to look at Jiu'er, and said, "Miss Jiu'er, tell everyone about the news over there!" ”
Jiu'er, who was sitting at the end, stood up, cleared his throat, and paced back and forth in the hall with his little hands behind his back, while saying triumphantly: "My brother in the county ......"
As soon as she started talking, Liu Xiu happily interrupted: "Jiu'er, how come you have a brother in the county town?" ”
"Lord, haven't you heard that the beggars in the world are a family?" Jiu'er raised her delicate eyebrows, looked at Liu Xiu from the corner of her eye, and asked rhetorically.
She is still dressed as a little beggar, with tattered clothes, her face is also black and white, she raises her eyebrows, and squints at people, which will not make people feel bored, but will feel very cute.
Everyone present was amused by Jiu'er's appearance. Liu Xiu was also happy, nodded again and again, and said, "You continue." ”
Jiu'er glanced at Liu Xiu again and said, "My brother in the county town saw that Commander Liang Qiuci left the county town with eight thousand county troops and went north. ”
"Huh?" Liu Xiu, Deng Yu, Li Tong and others were also taken aback when they heard this.
Eight thousand county troops? That's almost all the military strength of Nanyang County! Their own personnel have been hidden, and there are only a few hundred people on the surface, and it is impossible to say that the county government is coming to exterminate itself, and it is impossible to dispatch an army of 8,000 people.
At the beginning of the extermination of the Green Forest Army, the county government only dispatched 3,000 people. Besides, Chungling is in the south of the county town, and if the county army wants to come to destroy itself, it must go south, not north!
Everyone looked at each other, and Li Yihu asked suspiciously, "Is this...... Is this news accurate? ”
Jiu'er glared at Li Yi dissatisfiedly and asked, "Li Yi, do you doubt me, or do you doubt my brother?" ”
Li Yi was not familiar with Jiu'er, and he couldn't figure out her specific identity and status here in the Zhutian Capital, so he said with a smile: "Miss Jiu'er, don't blame, I'm just saying it casually!" ”
"Humph!" Jiu'er snorted heavily at him.
Li Tong looked at Liu Xiu and asked, "Lord, will there be fraud here?" ”
Liu Xiu slowly shook his head thoughtfully and said, "Probably not!" The army of 8,000 counties is already so strong that it does not need to use any trickery, and it is enough to trample Chungling to the ground in just one walk! ”
Deng Yu and Yan Guang nodded one after another, saying that Liu Xiu's analysis was correct, Liang Qiu personally led the 8,000 county army, what tactics do you need to use with your own side? As long as the army is pressed to Chungling, no one on their own side will be able to withstand a round of onslaught from the county army. Liu Jia calmly analyzed: "The main force of the county army is usually not easily used, the county government wiped out the green forest army of nearly 10,000 people, and even Zhen Fu personally went out to fight, and only 3,000 soldiers and horses were dispatched
A very significant change. ”
Liu Xuan asked curiously, "Xiaosun, what do you think will happen in the north?" ”
Liu Jia frowned, shook his head slowly, and said, "This ...... It's hard to say! ”
Deng Yu rubbed his chin and said: "During this time, the Jingshi Army led by Wang Kuang and Lian Dan has been fighting against the Red Mei Army in the north, and the Nanyang County Army is going north, will it have anything to do with this matter?" ”
Liu Jia continued: "Could it be that the war in the Beijing division army is tight? ”
Gaiyan shook his head and said, "No! Wang Kuang and Lian Dan are the commanders of 100,000 Beijing division troops, and there are only a few people in the Red Eyebrow Army? Can the 100,000 Beijing division army be beaten by the Red Eyebrow Army? ”
That's incredible, too. Gai Yan is a soldier, and he knows the combat power of the Jingshi Army very well, although he doesn't know the Red Mei Army, but he can also estimate the combat power of the Red Mei Army.
The Red Eyebrow Army, like the Green Forest Army, is a peasant rebel army, and the internal personnel are mainly homeless and rogue, even if the Red Eyebrow Army can have a slightly higher combat power than the Green Forest Army, but compared with the Jingshi Army, it is still far behind!
Deng Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Other than that, it's really hard to explain why the main force of the Nanyang County Army is going north!" "Mobilizing the main force of the county army, this is not a trivial matter, the transfer of so many soldiers and horses, even Zhen Fu and Liang Qiuci can't be the master, they must get the approval of the imperial court, the imperial court mobilizes the main force of the Nanyang county army to go north, what else can it be? Definitely for
Assist Wang Kuang and Lian Dan in the battle, if the battle of the Jingshi army goes well, there is no need to do more.
Liu Xiu felt that Deng Yu's analysis was reasonable, and he said to Jiu'er: "Jiu'er, let your brother keep an eye on the movements of the main force of the county army, and by the way, find out why the main force of the county army is going north." ”
Jiu'er nodded in response. The corners of Liu Xiu's mouth hooked, and he said with a smile: "If it is really the war of the Jingshi Army, it will be too beneficial to us, and the time left for us will become much more generous." ”
Everyone nodded. Liu Xuan stroked his palms and smiled, and said: "That's true, that is, even God is helping me Zhutian!" ”
Li Yi immediately got up, bowed to Liu Xuan, and said loudly: "It is the lord Hongfu Qitian, and my Zhutian Capital will be able to succeed in one fell swoop, become a monstrous torrent that sweeps this troubled world, and recover the Han River, just around the corner!" ”
When he said this, Liu Xuan's heart was broken, and the latter laughed and praised: "Ji Wen said it well! ”
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads secretly, Li Yi is not necessarily very capable, but he is flattering, and he is very set.
Liu Xiu said: "Big brother, let's talk about the plan after the incident!" ”
The uprising is imminent, so what should they do after the uprising?
Liu Zhen Zhengse said: "First of all, we want to take down Cai Yang!" Take Cai Yang as our foundation! ”
That's for sure. Chungling belongs to Caiyang County, and Caiyang County is close at hand, and the first step to do after the incident must be to take Caiyang County first. Liu Xiu asked, "And then?" ”
Liu Xuan smiled and said, "If the war goes well, we will go all the way north and take the county seat directly!" ”
Hearing this, everyone's expressions were different, and no one immediately spoke. After a while, Deng Yu said slowly: "From Chungling to the county seat, we must first cross the water, and then cross the water, and our side lacks the ability to fight in water. ”
This is a very real problem. What if you go north and attack the county town, and the county army fortifies on the other side? Our side simply does not have the ability to fight a water war, and it cannot fight a water war at all.
Liu Xuan rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Zhonghua, what about my ministry according to your opinion?" ”
Deng Yu said: "Originally, we planned to start an incident in Wancheng, Xinye, and Chungling at the same time, and Wancheng could surprise and attack the county government, but now, the original plan can no longer be implemented." ”
Li Tong and Li Yi lowered their heads red-faced, and in this matter, they both have unshirkable responsibilities. Deng Yu continued: "Then now, we have to change our strategy, I think that our ministry should not set up a foundation in Nanyang, but should take the road to Yizhou and establish a foundation in Yizhou." First, the Yizhou Tiangao Emperor is far away, and the court whip is beyond the reach of it
Second, we have a response in Yizhou, and Mawu and Choshi have laid a certain foundation in Yizhou, and third, Yizhou is seriously divided and the situation is chaotic, which is more conducive to our survival. ”
After listening to Deng Yu's words, Liu Xuan shook his head again and again, and said: "Zhonghua, our goal is to recover the Han Dynasty, not to live in a corner, I don't agree with going to Yizhou." ”
Deng Yu said: "General, we have just started an incident, and the first thing we should consider is how to survive, and then how to implement the great cause of recovery!" Liu Xuan said categorically: "I'm afraid that after I arrive in Yizhou, I can only live in a corner and have a bright future!" The royal industry is not partial, the Han and the thief are not separated, and we have only one goal, which is to conquer Chang'an, kill Wang Mang, and restore the Han Dynasty
! ”
Seeing Liu Xiu's resolute attitude, Deng Yu was not good at continuing to argue, he turned his head to look at Liu Xiu, who lowered his head slightly, as if he was contemplating.
In his heart, Liu Xiu also did not agree with Deng Yu's opinion, he thought that his side was indeed not suitable for moving to Yizhou, maybe the situation in the early stage could be safer, but the later development would be greatly limited.
Just like the eldest brother said, Wang Ye is not partial, Han and thief are not separated, what you want is not to live in a corner, but to fight to the death with Wang Mang! Yan Guang answered: "Staying in Nanyang is not without a way out. It is said that the two green forest armies of Xinshi and Pinglin, which were defeated before, have been merged with the Xiajiang green forest army, and the three green forest armies have been merged into one, which is stronger and more powerful, and if we want to make a difference in Nanyang County, we can consider cooperating with the green forest army, or even merging. ”
