Chapter 221: Solid Walls Clear Fields

The news soon spread to Weisheng Mansion, and this time King Tian Hu of Jin was even more furious, killing three people in a row before venting his anger.

If you still said anything about underestimating the enemy before, at this time, the two fierce generals of Shan Shiqi and Tang Bin joined forces to attack, and the result was that the whole army was wiped out in less than three days, and even Huguan and Baoqian Mountain were lost.

At this time, a group of civil and military officials in the Jin Kingdom also stopped talking like wilted eggplants, and with the experience of Shan Shiqi and Tang Bin, who would dare to take the lead.

Tian Hu asked a few times and no one answered, his eyes turned, and it happened to fall on Wu Li beside him, he took a deep breath and said: "Uncle Guo, I listened to the stupid advice of that mountain Shiqi before, and did not adopt your correct opinion, and now that those guys are dead, what do you think we should do?" ”

With Tian Hu's arrogance and tyranny, it is extremely rare to be able to say this, of course, from another point of view, it also shows that he really feels pressured.

Seeing that Tian Hu had taken the initiative to take a step back, Wu Li didn't want to say anything, after all, he also knew that this master was extremely fierce, and he wouldn't reason with you once he was in a hurry.

He coughed and said: "The old man originally hoped that the king would be able to lead the army to drive the expedition in person, and then with the help of the natural danger of Huguan and Baoqi Mountain, the enemy would be kept out, and the time would come to attack and retreat, but now this natural danger has been lost, and our Jin Kingdom has opened the door widely, and the enemy can attack all our places at any time, so the situation is extremely urgent." ”

Tian Hu's head hurt even more when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "All this is Lone's misjudgment, and he shouldn't be bewitched by Nashan Shiqi and others, but at this time, those two people are dead, and Uncle Guo should quickly help Gu with that countermeasure." ”

Wu Li folded his fingers and said: "We have a total of five prefectures and fifty-six counties in the Jin Kingdom, but there are only more than ten real important towns, and now there are Fenyang Mansion, Gaizhou Mansion, Huguan and Baoqi Mountain, which have fallen into the hands of thieves, and the rest are only Zhaode, Jinning, Weisheng, Fengyuan, Taiyuan, Xiangfen, Tonganshan and several other places are still heavily guarded, and the rest of the places are completely vulnerable. ”

The faces of the people, including Tian Hu, were a little ugly, what Wu Li said was not wrong at all, although they had captured as many as fifty-six county towns here, but after all, the troops were limited, and it was impossible to set up heavy troops in every place, so it was natural to disperse in a few important places, that is, what Wu Li said.

At this time, Ye Ling's officers and soldiers seemed to have only captured two prefectures, five counties and two more checkpoints, but in fact, they had already defeated more than one-third of their strength, especially after taking Huguan and Baoqian Mountain, it became them who could attack and retreat, and the remaining territory on Tian Hu's side was almost completely at the spearhead of the other party, and they could fight wherever they wanted, and the situation was indeed extremely serious.

Wu Li then said: "Today's plan, there are two urgent things, first, we must find foreign aid, this time the root cause of the problem is caused by Wang Qing, the king of Chu, before we and the court were just a stalemate, that is, the guy sent people to lobby the king, let us send troops to harass Qingzhou to oppress Naliangshan, so as to get benefits from it, but so far the benefits have not been seen, but the loss of troops has been lost, and Du Ling's group of elite officers and soldiers have been brought in.

As a result, now we are fighting hard with the officers and soldiers here, but these birds are watching the jokes on the side, so please send envoys to ask for help from the forces in the rivers and lakes everywhere, hoping that everyone will be in the same boat and retire the officers and soldiers together, especially to let this Wang Qing and his gang send troops, if they can put enough pressure on the officers and soldiers from behind, our crisis here will naturally be resolved. ”

Tian Hu slapped the table and shouted: "What Uncle Guo said is that Wang Qing has always been cunning, every time he has a benefit in dealing with him, he takes it, and I carry the hard work, his grandmother's, this time I must let him let him bleed, what is the other thing?" ”

Wu Li sighed and said: "There is also the fact that we must temporarily tighten our defenses, please inform the king of the generals in the places I mentioned before, so that everyone must be prepared, and don't go out to provoke the officers and soldiers, after all, they are far away, and the logistics supply is inconvenient, if Wang Qing and them can send troops to harass their logistics, we will retreat from the crisis here." ”

Tightening defense, in other words, fighting defensive warfare and attrition warfare in the clear field of fortification, to be honest, this is really not in line with Tian Hu's consistent style, he asked unwillingly: "Tightening defense?" His grandmother's, it's too embarrassing to say this, Uncle Guo, isn't there a better way? ”

Wu Li smiled bitterly and shook her head: "If there is a way, how can the old man be willing to make such a decision?" We have a total of more than 300,000 horses, of which the real elite is only 1450,000, and the rest are all made up, it is okay to defend the city to maintain law and order, but it is absolutely impossible to send troops to fight, and the previous Fenyang, Gaizhou, Huguan, and Baoqi Mountain have lost 40,000 or 50,000 people, and the remaining 100,000 is not even enough, and they are scattered in many places, does the king plan to mobilize them all to deal with the officers and soldiers? ”

Tian Hu was suddenly silently asked, of course he knew in his own heart, if he really transferred all the elites of less than 100,000, then the rest of the places would be very dangerous, and it would be difficult to keep them in case any other forces or officers and soldiers came to attack.

Moreover, at this time, the officers and soldiers occupied the natural danger of Huguan and Baoqian Mountain, even if he brought all the remaining 100,000 troops, what could he do if they did not fight? Is it to attack the city at all costs, or to die and consume?

In that case, even if you can barely win your own side, it will inevitably be a big loss of vitality, how can you sit firmly on the throne of the overlord of Jizhou at that time? Regardless of the various forces of black and white, I am afraid that they will fall into the trap for themselves at that time.

Therefore, in this battle with the officers and soldiers, it is not the greatest goal to completely annihilate them, but the greatest purpose is to preserve one's own strength and wait for the opportunity to seize the world.

Thinking of this, Tian Hu also immediately made a decision, and then immediately sent many envoys to go around to ask for help, and the most important way was naturally sent to Wang Qing, the king of Chu.

Ironically, he even sent a messenger to Liangshan in Qingzhou, hoping that the lord of Ye Ling Dazhai could be magnanimous, regardless of his previous suspicions, and pull himself in the spirit of righteousness in the same vein of the rivers and lakes, and he was willing to spend millions of dollars to come out to sacrifice the army.

I have to say that Tian Hu was also in a hurry, and he had to bow his head to the object of his previous plan to extort, but he never dreamed that this Ye Ling was no longer in Liangshan, but turned into the commander of the officers and soldiers who attacked him.

The world is changing, and nothing can happen more than that.
