Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Liang Qiuci is not a wine bag and rice bag, why doesn't he know that it is a wise move for Cen Peng to avoid the battle in Xinye?

However, this time the county army suffered a crushing defeat in Shuishui, losing more than 3,000 people in the first battle, and there must be someone responsible for such a heavy defeat, and someone must stand up and shoulder the responsibility, and give an explanation to the imperial court.

Liang Qiuci thought about it, and felt that there was no one more suitable than Cen Peng. First of all, Cen Peng is Zhen Fu's person, and he was promoted after being recommended and promoted by Zhen Fu, Cen Peng made a mistake, Liang Qiuci, who is his top boss, is certainly responsible, but Zhen Fu can't run, and he has the responsibility of recommending unfavorably. secondly

The fault of the defeat of the county army this time can indeed be forcibly pushed on Cen Peng's head, if he can attract all the rebels in Xinye, the cavalry of the rebel army will not run to the other side of the river and surprise the county army camp.

In short, whether Liang Qiuci is for self-protection or to suppress Zhen Fu's entire political rivals, it is necessary for him to pretend to be confused at this time and put all the blame on Cen Peng's head. In terms of both the strength of troops and the war resources at their disposal, the officers and troops had an overwhelming advantage over the local rebel armies, but every time a confrontation was fought, the rebel army was always victorious, and the officers and men were defeated again and again

There are all kinds of contradictions and entanglements of interests among the officers and men. One side is united and united, while the other side is intriguing, fighting openly and secretly, and tearing down each other. Hearing Lu Zhi's reminder, Liang Qiuci only glanced at him coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Cen Peng in Xinye, passively slacking off the battle, not only failed to contain the main force of the anti-thieves, but also turned a blind eye to the northward movement of the main force of the anti-thieves, and did not report it

, which caused our battalion on the east bank of Shuyang to suffer a sneak attack by the main cavalry of the anti-thieves, and suffered heavy losses, isn't Cen Peng at fault? ”

Lu Zhi was about to speak, but Liang Qiuci shouted in shock: "Immediately repair the book, report Cen Peng's mistake to the county government, and report it to the state government and the imperial court. ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi immediately swallowed back the words that came to his mouth. How smart he is, as soon as he heard Liang Qiuci's words, he didn't understand his intentions, he didn't really think that Cen Peng was wrong, he just took Cen Peng to fight the thunder.

Regarding Liang Qiuci's approach, Lu Zhi disagreed with it in his heart, but he didn't have much to say.

While the people below were repairing the book, Lu Zhi walked up to Liang Qiuci and reminded in a low voice: "Lord Duwei, after Zhen Taishou receives this battle report, he is very likely to pass on the book to Xinye and order General Cen to fight immediately!" ”

Zhen Fu is not a person who can fight, seeing that Liang Qiuci put the responsibility for the defeat of the county army on Cen Peng's head, it is strange that Zhen Fu is not in a hurry, in order to avoid responsibility, he will definitely order Cen Peng to fight.

However, Xinye faced the main force of the Chungling rebel army, and once Cen Peng gave up holding on to the city and went out to fight, there was little hope of victory.

Liang Qiuci looked at Lu Zhi, smiled indifferently, shrugged his shoulders, and said slowly: "Victory or defeat, it is all Zhen Taishou's gains and losses, and it has nothing to do with me anymore." ”

"......" Lu Zhi wanted to speak again and again, and finally hung his head weakly and did not speak again. What he wants to say is, whose fault is it, whose responsibility, can these things still be repeated? Liang Qiuci patted Lu Zhi's shoulder and said happily: "Don't worry, Nanyang is an important town in the country, and there will be no loss, and the imperial court will not let Nanyang lose." Once Nanyang is in an emergency, the imperial court will not sit idly by, and will inevitably send troops to reinforce it, and wait until then

, the opportunity for you and me to make contributions has come! ”

Lu Zhi looked at Liang Qiuci blankly, and he didn't know where his confidence came from. And it turns out that Liang Qiuci is indeed far more politically oriented than Lu Zhi.

The east bank of Huaiyang.

Liu Xiu sat in the Chinese military tent and looked through the account books on the table. How much grain and grass and how much material were hoarded in the camp are clearly recorded in the account books. As he was looking at it, Ma Wu and Choshi walked in from outside excitedly, and said excitedly: "Lord, we have checked, there are thousands of stones of food in the camp, no less than 3,000 sets of military uniforms, armor, and weapons, nearly 1,000 bows and crossbows, and more than 1,000 bundles of arrows!"

”

Liu Xiu put down the account book and said with a smile: "There are a lot of treasures in the county army!" ”

Ma Wu said with a smile: "Transporting all these supplies back can do our army a great favor!" ”

Food, military uniforms, armor, weapons, bows, crossbows, arrows, etc., none of them are not lacking in the Zhutian Capital. Seeing these things, Ma Wu and the others all had green light in their eyes.

Liu Xiu also wanted to transport all these grains and supplies back to his own army, but no, their mission this time was not to collect the spoils of war, but to prevent the county army from crossing the river.

Carrying this amount of food and supplies would greatly limit their speed. Once the county army has a new move, they can't respond immediately.

After a moment of silence, Liu Xiu said: "Let the brothers bring some food, bows and crossbows, and arrows, and the things they bring shall not exceed twenty catties, and as for the rest, burn them!" ”

"All burned?" Ma Wu asked with wide eyes.

Liu Xiu said helplessly: "Is it still left to the county army?" ”

"But ......" "Food and supplies, we can slowly capture in the future battles, to prevent the main force of the county army from crossing the river, is a matter of life and death, we are now alone, we must be cautious, carrying too much baggage, will only affect our response."

Hurry! Liu Xiu Zhengse said.

Ma Wu and Cho Qi glanced at each other, bowed to Liu Xiu in both directions, and said, "Subordinates obey orders!" ”

"Also, let's pack up our things as soon as possible and burn this camp as well."

Ma Wu asked in surprise, "Lord, aren't we stationed here?" ”

Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "It's too dazzling, and it's too dangerous!" If we don't take care to hide our tracks, we could be surrounded by reckless armies at any time! ”

Here on the east bank of Shuyang, less than 100 miles to the north is Jianyang, less than 100 miles to the north is the south canal, and then to the north is Wancheng and the county seat.

Whether the enemy army is starting from the county town, Wancheng, or Jianyang, it will take three days at most to reach them. If they continue to stay in the camp on the east coast, I am afraid that in the end they will not even know how they died.

After Liu Xiu and others repelled the temptation of the county army, they did not stay in the camp for a long time, and set the tents in the camp together with the supplies, set a fire, and burned them clean.

However, the cavalry led by Liu Xiu did not withdraw, but continued to wander near the east bank of the river, keeping an eye on the movements of the county army.

The county army was stationed in Shuyang, and there was no reckless action, and Liang Qiuci knew that the Chungling army did not have a naval army, so he was not afraid that the Chungling army would forcibly cross the river and fight.

Liang Qiuci's battle report was transmitted to the county seat. Zhen Fu read this battle report, his lungs were about to explode, he slammed the bamboo slip to the ground, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Shameless!" It's just brazen to the extreme! ”

He lost the battle in Huaiyang, suffered a big loss, and lost more than 3,000 soldiers, but instead put the responsibility on Cen Peng, who was far away in Xinye, in Zhen Fu's opinion, Liang Qiuci didn't even want to face in order to shirk responsibility.

The staff on the side picked up the bamboo slips, carefully put them on the table, and said meaningfully to Zhen Fu: "My lord, now Lord Liang is hiding in Shuyang under the pretext of General Cen and refuses to cross the river, and the war is probably going to fall into a long stalemate!" ”

"What about the impasse?" Zhen Fu asked angrily. The staff member whispered: "Lord Liang's side naturally doesn't care about dry consumption, grain, grass, and materials can be continuously transported to Shuyang from the rear, but General Cen can't stand it, Xinye has been besieged for more than a month, and he is in a stalemate, waiting for the city."

The grain and grass are exhausted, and I am afraid that it will be ...... Defeat without a fight. ”

The key is that even if he loses, the responsibility is still on Cen Peng's head, and it has nothing to do with him Liang Qiuci.

Zhen Fu clenched his fists and said in a condensed voice: "Liang Qiuci is really calculating!" ”

Staff member Zhengse said: "For today's plan, the adults can only pass on the book to General Cen and let him lead the army out of the city and fight to the death against the thieves!" ”

Zhen Fu raised his eyebrows, looked at his staff, and asked, "Cen Peng went out of the city to fight, can he defeat the thief?" ”

The staff shook their heads and said, "My subordinates don't know!" Maybe you win, you may lose! ”

When Zhen Fu heard this, he was almost angry, and said: "Since you don't have the full certainty of winning, why do you want Cen Peng to go out of the city to fight?" The staff said quietly: "Without a fight, General Cen can only be trapped and die in Xinye; After the battle and defeat, the responsibility will also be transferred to Lord Liang, it was Lord Liang who led the army to shrink in Shuyang and did not cooperate with General Cen to fight, which led to General Cen as a result

The army was defeated. After hearing this, Zhen Fu blinked, and then nodded again and again. He sneered and said, "Well, that's a good idea! Liang Qiu gave Cen Peng to my army, and I also want to use Cen Peng, and in turn he Liang Qiu's army! Immediately spread the book to Xinye, so that Cen Peng rated

All the troops of Xinye will go out of the city to face the battle, and all the thief troops around Xinye must be annihilated! ”

"Yes! My lord! ”

Zhen Fu's flying pigeon passed the book, and soon arrived in Xinye.

Reading the content of the biography, Cen Peng's brows twisted into a pimple. Out of the city to fight? Isn't this self-defeating? Although there are more than 4,000 soldiers in Xinye County, the vast majority of them are new recruits and have no combat experience at all.

Let them throw rolling wood and stones on the top of the city, and let them go to face to face with the Chungling army, and they can only be slaughtered.

If the county army can reach Xinye, and cooperate with the county army to fight, beat the side drums, and beat the hands, then there is no problem, but the key is that the county army is still far away in Shuyang!

Relying only on the Xinye County soldiers themselves, fighting alone with the Chungling Army, there is no possibility of winning at all. Cen Peng immediately wrote a reply to Zhen Fu, directly expressing that it was very unrealistic for his side to go out of the city to fight, and hoped that Zhen Fu could take back his life.

In fact, Cen Peng didn't figure out Zhen Fu's intentions at all, whether Xinye's side won or lost, for Zhen Fu was secondary, the main problem was that he couldn't help Liang Qiuci carry the black cauldron, and let Liang Qiuci sit by the side and enjoy the success.

The twists and turns in this are not something that Cen Peng, a general, can understand.

Soon, Cen Peng received a flying pigeon from the county side, and still asked him to lead the troops into battle. Looking at the second letter from Zhen Fu, Cen Peng can be said to be at a loss, he has already made it very clear in the reply that with his current combat strength, it is okay to defend the city, and he will die in battle, but Zhen Fu still ordered him to fight, what is the intention of this?
