Liu Xiangjun and Zhao Yiren showed their faces with pretty, and they all glared at Ji Xuanling.

Looking at their embarrassed appearance, Princess Mengluo said: "Lang Jun, it is rare for good things to come in pairs, and tonight's family banquet is just right to welcome the two sisters." ”

The beautiful woman sat down and surrounded her.

The maid poured wine and waited, and everyone pushed the cup to change the lamp, so it was not lively.

Before he was drunk and full, Mu Cangchi appeared outside the palace gate and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, there is news from the West Gate, Lu Boning, the Ram Yue soldiers are about to become outside, and they are camping in the village. ”

"The general of the defeated army also dares to be arrogant!" Ji Xuanling muttered, picked up the wine glass and drank it full.

Hearing the sound, the beautiful woman turned to look at the prime minister, her eyes focused on him.

Ji Xuanling got up, glanced at Zhao Yiren and Liu Xiangjun, stared at Ruan Chengcheng, and advised: "Allure, the enemy army has invaded the territory, and this king is entangled in military affairs, take care of Concubine Jing and Concubine An for her husband." ”

"Hmm!"

Before the four of them saluted, Ji Xuanling had already turned around and left.

Twilight.

It is dark on all sides.

The west gate of Changchuan City, the defenders are on guard.

Ji Xuanling came temporarily, Shen Tuxiu, and Gai Wenguang deployed in the aisle.

"The king, Lu Boning, Ram Yue, the soldiers are coming to the city, they are camping, but they are not attacking the city, the last general is Lu Boning's old department, in order to avoid suspicion, he is willing to hand over the military power." Gavin said with his fists clenched.

"Hahaha."

Ji Xuanling raised his head and chuckled, glanced outside the city and said: "Wen Guang, you have been fighting with this king for a while, you should know the character of this king, and you have always used people without suspicion!" To deal with Lu Boning, I still need your assistance. ”

Hearing the sound, Gavin was ashamed, his villain's heart was a gentleman's belly.

The king trusts him, and there is no way to repay him, so he can only kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions to help the king solve problems.

Looking sideways outside the city, he said loudly: "Wang, the scout reports, Lu Boning, Ram Yue is the vanguard, Gao Yi led the army to defend the Qingshui River, Zhao Tuo sent Guo Muyu to lead the Northern Expedition, in addition, Sun Ming's general Han Xun is also leading the army to come."

Before the Qin army left Changchuan City, there would be a fierce battle. ”

"It's not a matter of worry."

Ji Xuanling was condescending, looking at the military camp in the west, in the dim light, the military camp was dotted with stars, stretching for several miles, and he vaguely judged the number of coalition troops.

"Since Lu Boning, the ram is leading the army to provoke, just to destroy it and weaken the resistance of the southern expedition."

did not stay in Ximen for a long time, he quickly returned to the palace to gather generals and discuss the military situation.

A year ago, Lu Boning, the ram was defeated, and the army fled to the south in a hurry.

Relying on a small number of elites, they survived in the southwest and healed their wounds.

It is a pity that there are frequent wars in the southwest, and their vitality has not yet recovered.

Ji Xuanling was well versed in the way of using troops, despised the two of them strategically, and marched and fought specifically, but he did not underestimate the enemy.

The generals and staff arrived at the Yanqing Hall one after another and sat on both sides.

Shentu Xiu said loudly to the generals, staff, and Dao Ming about the situation outside the city: "A certain once followed the king, went west to conquer Lu Boning, the ram Yue, Lu Boning is extremely brave and good at fighting, the more cunning and insidious the ram is, we should not be underestimated." ”

Hearing this, the generals' faces suddenly became serious.

The three-way elite is menacing.

In particular, the presence of Lu Boning made the battle situation confusing.

This battle, if you want to win a big victory.

Either win by surprise and sweep away thousands of armies, or fight steadily and encroach step by step, consume the living force of the coalition forces and disintegrate their fighting spirit.

While the generals were pondering, Di Zhongtai clenched his fists sideways, and said confidently: "Your Majesty, the soldiers will block, the water will come to cover, the three armies are menacing, but unfortunately they are distributed in three places, and the last general suggests gathering superior forces and breaking them one by one." ”

Without waiting for everyone to think deeply, Di Zhongkang took the lead in rejecting his younger brother's proposal: "No, Lu Boning, Ram Yue, Guo Muyu, and Han Xun are all veterans of the battlefield, and the elite led by them include both iron cavalry, infantry, and many sailors.

If the three places are divided into three places today and broken one by one, the Qin army will have to run back and forth, which will seriously waste time and energy.

In the face of the sailors, the elite of the Qin army did not have any advantage. ”

Turning to look at Ji Xuanling, he said sonorously: "Your Majesty, this battle annihilates the elite of the three roads, but it can't cause too many casualties, and the last general suggests that it must be outwitted." ”

"That's right, these local chickens and dogs, they will collapse at the touch of a button, and they are not worth the price of too much money for the Qin army's comeback." Shen Tuxiu said confidently.

Fighting all the way, there are few elite soldiers and fierce generals who can match the Qin army, even if Lu Boning and Ram Yue, don't want to threaten them.

"General Shentu, the arrogant army will be defeated, and the enemy must not be underestimated!" Lu Linxuan kindly reminded, and then said to Ji Xuanling: "Your Majesty, Changchuan City has thick walls, and it is a wonderful place to annihilate the three armies. It's a pity that it's far away from the Qingshui River, so it can't attract Gao Yi's sailors. The last general suggested that the battlefield should be moved south and try to annihilate the enemy. ”

As he spoke, Lu Linxuan got up and walked to the map, leaned over to observe it in detail for a moment, and said firmly: "If possible, put the battlefield in Tucheng." ”

Tucheng?

Ji Xuanling frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

The generals and staff were also quite surprised.

They all got up and stepped forward to observe in detail.

Tucheng.

On the north bank of the Qingshui River, an inconspicuous small county town, more than 20,000 people live in the city.

There were neither strong walls nor wide depths, and if it were to lure Gao Yi north, it might put the Qin army in a very dangerous place.

For a while, Di Zhongkang, Di Zhongtai, Shen Tuxiu, Xu Wenda, and Jia asked, and they all raised their doubts.

Ji Xuanling was also curious, and urged: "General Lu, tell me about your strategy." ”

When Lu Linxuan heard this, he said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the city is very small and it is not easy to hold on. However, the advantage of Tucheng is that the city is small and shallow, if it can lure tens of thousands of elites into the city, a fire will burn the city clean.

If you try to lure all the troops of Lu Boning and others into the city, it will be easy to destroy them, and when the army is fighting, the Chu Navy Division will take the opportunity to force the Qingshui River and cut off all the enemy's retreats.

After this battle, the Qin army swept away the fierce enemy on the north bank of the Qingshui River, and also pounced on the south of the Qingshui River in one fell swoop, killing the boundary of Xiangzhou. ”

Although this method is good, the generals still have doubts, Gavin Guang observed the map, and asked: "General Lu, if someone in the coalition army preemptively seizes the city and waits for help, how will we deal with it?" ”

When capturing Changchuan City, the Qin army suffered enough casualties and could not come back too much.

"It's very simple, the walls of Tucheng are short, easy to defend and easy to attack. If there is a fire in the city, can't the coalition forces take the city? Lu Linxuan was full of confidence.

Gavin thought for a while, nodded, and said excitedly, "So, just try to lure the coalition forces into the city?" ”

"It's very simple." Xu asked, without hesitation to express his thoughts to the generals.

Hearing this, Jia asked: "In this battle, if General Lu's plan can be realized, there must be an army left, cross the river with the Chu army, and break into Xiangzhou in a lightning speed." ”

At this time, Ji Xuanling looked up and smiled: "Hahaha, what General Lu said, this king suddenly remembered something!" ”
