On August 24, more than 200,000 Qilu allied troops in the Pi fortress were dispatched to launch the most ferocious offensive against the Fuli fortress of the Chu State so far. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the same time, Zhao Hongrun had just received a letter from Lu Xi, the king of Qi, who had sent someone two days earlier.

There is no way, after all, there is a Fu Li Fortress between Pi Fortress and Xuan County, so the correspondence between the first two can only be detoured from the west side of Longji Mountain, that is, through the area of Xiangcheng, for two days to send the letter of Lu Xi, the king of Qi, to Zhao Hongrun.

After receiving the letter, Zhao Hongrun took a cursory look at it, and immediately ordered Su Wangwei to invite the main and deputy generals of the three armies, the Fencheng Army, the Yanling Army, and the Shangshui Army, to the place where he lived in the outpost, and met with these generals in the living room.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun learned that although Xu Yin liked his general Cai Baohu, Cai Baohu was actually only the battalion general of the Xiwei Battalion of the Fencheng Army, not the deputy general of the Fencheng Army, the deputy general of the Fencheng Army, was a general named Qi (qi) Hong, who was said to be from a famous family in the Luyang area of the Wei State.

I thought that Cai Baohu would be the successor to the mantle of General Xu Yin......

Zhao Hongrun was slightly surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he was also relieved.

After all, according to Cai Baohu's character, being a vanguard general who charges into battle is enough to be competent, but if he is asked to take charge of the Fencheng army, with Cai Baohu's temperament, there is a chance that he will not be competent.

In comparison, the general named Qi Hong seemed much more stable, but the identity of the other party's Luyang Wang clan made Zhao Hongrun more or less prejudiced.

After all, in Zhao Hongrun's view, the army should be a pure place, and he didn't want the domestic aristocratic forces to be involved.

However, because this was the internal affairs of the Fen Army, Zhao Hongrun didn't say anything interestingly.

Following Xu Yin and Qi Hong, Qu Cheng and Yan Mo of the Yan Ling Army also arrived, and after that, Wu Ji and another general of the Shang Shui Army also arrived.

However, the identity of this other general made Zhao Hongrun really stunned for a moment.

South Gate Late? How did he end up with Wu Ji?

Zhao Hongrun was really a little puzzled, you must know that after Yan Mo skillfully captured Xiangcheng, the generals of Nanmen Chi, Nanmen Jue, Nanmen Huai, Zou Xin and other former Xiangcheng generals all surrendered to the Yanling Army, so it stands to reason that Nanmen Chi should also be a general subordinate to the Yanling Army.

Even, when Zhao Hongrun was reorganizing the Yanling Army a few days ago, if it weren't for Nanmen Chi who followed the Shangshui Army to attack Qi County, this general would have been the battalion general of the second battalion of the Yanling Army, not the temporary replacement of Nanmen Huai.

After all, Nanmen Chi is the defender of Yuanxiang City, and he is also the brother of Nanmen Jue and Nanmen Huai, and the brother of Nanmen Yang, so Nanmen Chi is the best candidate for the second battalion general of the Yanling Army.

But right now, Nanmen Chi smiled and followed Wu Ji in, this scene not only surprised Zhao Hongrun, but also made Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and others confused.

Probably noticing the strange gazes of Zhao Hongrun and others, Nanmen Chi arched his fists and explained: "Your Royal Highness (King Su), because of the relationship between the last general and my Nanmen clan, General Wu (Ji) had a bad relationship with Natian in Qi County, and the last general felt deeply guilty. …… Two days ago, I learned that General Zhai Huang, the deputy general of the Shangshui Army, is now in Xiangcheng, so the last general has the courage to make a claim, hoping to stay in the Shangshui Army for the time being and help the general Wu (taboo). ”

……

Zhao Hongrun opened his mouth slightly and looked at Nanmen Chi in surprise.

Although it is said that Nanmen Chi is temporarily staying in the Shangshui Army, this statement actually has no credibility.

You must know that although the Yan Ling Army and the Shang Shui Army have the same position in the matter of Tian Tan, the two armies are extremely competitive when they only have each other, and it is impossible for Nanmen Chi to temporarily stay in the Shang Shui Army like this.

Either the Yanling Army or the Shangshui Army, he had only one choice.

And right now, since Nanmen Chi said this, it means that he chose the Shang Shui Army, and the so-called temporary stay in the Shang Shui Army is just a euphemism, after all, Qu Cheng and Yan Mo of the Yan Ling Army are present at this moment, and they don't want to offend them if they want to come to the South Gate.

Get! The grievances between the Yanling army and the Shang Shui army are now becoming more and more difficult to resolve......

Zhao Hongrun secretly smiled bitterly, because he noticed that when Qu Cheng and Yan Mo heard Nanmen Chi's explanation, the two of them looked at Wu Ji's eyes, and they became more and more displeased, probably suspecting that Wu Ji had poured some ecstasy soup into Nanmen Chi or something.

You must know that although Zhao Hongrun always hopes that the army is a pure existence and does not want to be affected by the aristocratic forces, it is undeniable that many armies are inseparable from the support of some nobles behind them.

For example, the six battalions of the Wei garrison, such as the Junshui Army, the Dangshan Army, the Chenggao Army, and the Fencheng Army, seem to have no nobles to support them, but in fact, these armies have the support of the largest nobles of the Wei State, the Zhao royal family surnamed Ji.

For another example, the nobles such as the Yanling Gong clan and the Peng clan behind the Yanling army, the nobles such as the Shang Shui Yangyu clan behind the Shang Shui Army, and the garrison army and the local nobles will inevitably have interests involved, which Zhao Hongrun cannot change.

And the question at the moment is, should the Nanmen clan choose the Shang Shui Army or the Yan Ling Army?

Or is it the idea of hoping for both sides? - And this is precisely the stupidest.

“……”

Zhao Hongrun shook his head secretly.

He didn't bother to care about the affairs between the Yanling army and the Shangshui army, nor did he bother to care which side the Nanmen clan was leaning towards, after all, no matter what, the Yanling army and the Shangshui army were both the armies of the Wei State, as long as this was ensured, the rest were just trivial matters, and he didn't have the energy to care about these things.

"In that case, you can temporarily assume the responsibilities of Vice General Zhai Huang and assist Wu Ji well."

Zhao Hongrun said casually, and then motioned for Wu Ji and the south gate to be late to the table.

"Yes!" South Gate Chi clenched his fists in response.

Seeing this scene, Qu Cheng and Yan Mo glanced at each other, although they didn't say much, their faces were not very good-looking.

They may be thinking about the problem of his second battalion commander of the Yanling Army: after all, if Nanmen Chi really joined the side of the Shangshui Army and was heavily used by Wu Ji, then the position of the commander of the second battalion of his Yanling Army could no longer be left to the people of the Nanmen clan.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

On the main seat, Zhao Hongrun clapped his hands to attract the generals' ideas, only to see him pointing to the letter in the hand of Wei Jiao, the chief of the sect guard beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Just now, this king received a letter written by Lu Xi, the king of Qi, which said that the Qilu coalition army will launch an offensive against Fulisai on August 24, that is, today. …… The king of Qi hoped that our army, as well as the Eastern Route Army of Natian Tan, would assist the main army in attacking Fulisai. …… This king is still the same sentence, you give this king some courage! ”

"Yes!" Yan Lingjun's Qu Cheng and Yan Mo, as well as Wu Ji and Nanmen Chi of the Shang Shui Army, responded with their fists in unison, looking full of fighting spirit.

At this time, Xu Yin, the general of the Fencheng Army, stroked his beard and asked, "His Royal Highness King Su, has King Qi deployed specific strategic arrangements?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Hongrun nodded, and then motioned to Wei Jiao, the head of the sect guard, to spread the marching map on the table in the center of the hall that was specially used to discuss the military situation.

Immediately, Zhao Hongrun stepped forward and beckoned the generals to approach the table.

After all the generals stood at the table, I saw Zhao Hongrun pointing his finger to the location of Fu Lisai on the map, and then stroked slightly to the south, and said in a deep voice: "To the south of Fu Lisai, and on the north side of the county of Qi County, there is a city and county, which the Chu people call Su, which used to be the city fortress of Chu to resist the attack of the Qi army, but with the completion of Fu Lisai, Su County is no longer a fortress, but has become the granary of Fu Lisai. …… As you think, staying in this city, hoarding a large amount of grain and grass, the King of Qi hopes that our Western Route Army and Eastern Route Army will conquer this place first. It is good to be able to occupy the city, but if it is not possible, try to burn the storeyard of grain in the city. After a pause, Zhao Hongrun added: "Once Fu Lisai loses the grain and grass in Su County, although there are mountains of grain piled up in its fortress, it is not enough to support hundreds of thousands of people. ”

Hearing this, the expressions of the generals in the room became extremely serious.

You must know that a few days ago, the Yan Ling army and the Shang Shui army ambushed the army of Fu Lisai to protect Ou County and Qi County respectively, in other words, at this time, the Chu army of Fu Lisai had already learned that there was a problem with the rear.

In this way, the Chu army of Fu Lisai will inevitably deploy heavy troops in the granary of Suxian County to guard against the attack of the Wei army and the Tian Tan army.

From this, it is not difficult to guess that the battle of the Wei army and the Tian Tan army attacking Suxian is bound to be a vicious battle.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun was still stating the tactical arrangement.

“…… After conquering Suxian, our army will move north and cross the Suhe River, the lower reaches of Xiangcheng Suixi, where and here, the military camp will be stationed. …… Don't look at the Chu soldiers in Fu Lisai, including the Chu army of Longji Mountain, there are as many as 500,000 or so, once the granary is destroyed by our army, no matter how many people this Chu army is, it will not be able to have the slightest combat power. If Fu Lisai guards the end of the item and chooses to defend to the end, this is of course the best, because this is the way to die. …… What he was afraid of was that Xiang Mo saw that the general trend had gone, and led his army to break through to the south. ”

Hearing this, Qi Hong, the deputy general of the Fencheng Army, frowned, and asked tentatively: "King Lu Xi of Qi wants our army to intercept it?" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Hongrun nodded, and then laughed and said: "For the sake of the future battle situation, he certainly hopes to kill all the 500,000 or so Chu troops of Fu Lisai, and he will do whatever it takes to do so." But this king ......"

As he spoke, he looked around at Zhao Hongrun and glanced at the generals in the room, and said: "The intention of this king, I think you all know it, if it is not clear, then this king will say it again here." …… Although our army came to assist the king of Qi Lu Xi this time, there is no need for our army to risk his life for the sake of the Qi country, to put it more bluntly, this king led the troops this time to reap the benefits of my Great Wei. …… Therefore, if General Chu intends to break through the siege, let him go, and our army can then cover up and kill, understand? The king does not want to see huge losses in our army. ”

Zhao Hongrun has talked about this, where will the generals not understand.

After all, at present, the Wei army plus the surrendered Chu soldiers are only more than 90,000 people, and there are more than 10,000 people in Xiangcheng. With these 80,000 people in the army alone, can they block the breakthrough of about 500,000 Chu soldiers in the area of Fuli Sai?

Especially in the case that the other party is trying to break through and survive, if the Wei army forcibly stops it, it is very likely to be overwhelmed by the huge number of the Chu army, which is exactly what Zhao Hongrun does not want to see.

"It's good to preserve your strength, but I'm afraid that someone will play right and wrong in front of King Qi when the time comes......" Xu Yin said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter."

Zhao Hongrun waved his hand and said: "My Great Wei's soldiers are only allies of the Qi State, not his vassals or soldiers, so you don't have to obey the arrangements of the King of Qi in everything." …… If someone criticizes this matter in the future, this king will come forward. …… If you understand, retreat and prepare for the dispatch of troops! ”

Including Xu Yin, the general of the Fencheng Army, the generals in the house took a look at each other and led the troops with their fists.

"Yes!" (To be continued.) )
