……

Outside Yun County, ten miles of narrow roads, Xu Wenjing, Xu Hui, Fu Yunxiao, Mu Feng, and Mu Kuo waited for the arrival of Liu Ce's army. Vertex Says X 23 U OM

As the sound of neat and heavy footsteps approached with the marching music, the dry and hard ground shook slightly, and the deep roar echoed the sound of iron hooves, constantly shaking the heartstrings of the people......

When nearly 15,000 ironclad troops appeared in everyone's eyes, the leaders of the Hu clan and the Jizhou rebels who had not been attached for a long time couldn't help but be short of breath...... They had never heard of it, and they were more frightened than the Hulans.

"Stop!"

When the guards saw Liu Ce waving his hand, they immediately stopped the military music and continued to play.

The generals at all levels led by Xu Wenjing and the patriarchs of all ethnic groups immediately greeted them, but saw Xu Wenjing take the lead and said loudly to Liu Ce: "Subordinate Xu Wenjing, I have seen the general!" I've met all the commanders! After finishing speaking, his thin body trembled uncontrollably because of excitement, and everyone behind him also saluted the young coach with Xu Wenjing.

Liu Cece and the horse signaled to them, and then looked at the Yunxian city wall that had been repaired, and asked in a deep voice: "What about those slaves?" ”

Xu Wenjing said: "General, their mission has ended, in order to show the sincerity of my Jingwei battalion, my subordinates sent them to where they should go......" After speaking, he glanced at Liu Ce.

Liu Ce closed his eyes for a moment and said, "It's good, what about the head?" ”

The corners of Xu Wenjing's mouth curled lightly: "General Huiyu, it has already been prepared, and it will come in handy when it comes to capturing Langcheng......"

Liu Ce nodded: "Let's go in and discuss." ”

……

In the Yunxian County Mansion, the generals at all levels stood on both sides, Liu Ce sat on the high hall, looked at the people in the hall, and when he saw several foreign leaders who he had never seen before, his brows couldn't help frowning.

Seeing Liu Ce's expression, Xu Wenjing stepped out and said, "General, let me introduce you." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the patriarch of the Wu tribe: "This is the patriarch of the Wu tribe in southern Hebei, Mo Ji, all the 80,000 people in the clan have taken the initiative to serve the general, and the patriarch of Mo Ji is not only brave in battle, but also writes a good hand, which makes Wen Jing admire, and the patriarch is not quick to come forward to see the general......"

When Mo Ji heard this, he hurriedly knelt on one knee and bowed to Liu Cexing, and said excitedly: "Ben Nu Mo Ji has seen General Liu!" ”

Liu Ce carefully looked at Mo Ji under the hall for a while, and said: "Say, why do you take the initiative to join my Jingwei Battalion, you must know that your clan has more than 80,000 people and controls 30,000 strings, why don't you vote for the Hulan people?"

Mo Ji said: "General, although Mo Ji is a Hu person, but he also knows right and wrong, the Hulan people suppress and exploit my tribe everywhere, and the worship next year is not something that my clan can bear, I heard that the general's Jingwei camp is like falling from the sky, in order to give the clan a way to live, this took the initiative to join the general!" ”

Liu Ce said: "Patriarch Moji is polite, get up first, since your Wu clan is so knowledgeable about current affairs, this general will not treat you and your people badly......"

Moji said loudly, "Thank you, General! Then he bowed heavily.

Liu Ce saw that Mo Ji got up and wanted to leave, and called him again: "Patriarch Mo Ji ......"

Hearing this, Mo Ji hurriedly turned around and said, "If the general has any orders, the slave will do it immediately......"

Liu Ce smiled and said: "Patriarch Moji, you are good at writing when you listen to what the military advisor said, and this original dialect is also very tight, I don't know where you learned it?"

Mo Ji was a little proud when he heard this, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously, and said respectfully to Liu Ce: "General, the military advisor is serious, and the word for a slave is ...... It was learned from a gentleman who had taken captivity among the local people...... On weekdays, I have nothing to do and practice casually, and I can't go on the stage......"

Speaking of this, Mo Ji cautiously glanced at Liu Ce in the hall, for fear that he would be dissatisfied, after all, this matter was "harmless" before, but now it is different after all, and he also understands the rules of the Jingwei Battalion, and it can be said that there is only one way to die for this kind of robbery......

However, Liu Ce didn't care about these things with him, but said to Mo Ji playfully: "I didn't expect that the patriarch of Mo Ji is still so vassal, and the general who came to Japan must take a good look at your pen and ink." ”

Mo Ji was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, but when he saw Xu Wenjing on the side smiling and nodding at him, he came back to his senses and said yes to Liu Ce.

Seeing Mo Ji returning to the column, Liu Ce opened his mouth and said to him again: "Also, don't be self-degrading when you see General Ben in the future, I don't want to do this in the Jingwei Battalion." ”

Mo Ji was moved a little moved when he heard this, and thanked Liu Ce again.

After Xu Wenjing introduced the patriarchs of various clans, Liu Ce already had a general understanding of the army under his control.

"In addition to the Ling clan, there are 120,000 soldiers who can fight for the Hu people, and 45,000 Jizhou troops, which can almost launch an offensive against Langcheng......"

Liu Ce quickly calculated the gains and losses of the attack on Langcheng in his heart, and now he was waiting for the three thousand Jizhou heavy soldiers from the Hanling side to transport the siege equipment.

Thinking about this, Liu Ce began to cut to the chase, he glanced at the generals in the hall again, and said: "Everyone, now that everything is ready, it's time to start deciding that Jizhou belongs......

All the generals in the hall hugged their fists at Liu Ce and said, "But with the general's drive!" ”

……

After everyone retreated, only Liu Ce and the generals at all levels of the Jingwei Battalion and the military advisor Xu Wenjing were left in the Yunxian County Mansion, and began to discuss the strategy of the Langcheng attack.

Liu Ce said to Xu Wenjing: "Strategist, tell me, what happened to the more than 10,000 dead corpses in the Hutuo Plain?" ”

Xu Wenjing glanced at the surrounding battalion envoys at all levels, and then said: "General, my subordinates have already delivered the cause and effect to you through a letterhead, so why do you need to ask more?" ”

Liu Ce said: "I'm asking you to tell everyone present, what do you think, tell me the general process, so that everyone can understand in their hearts, rest assured, there are no outsiders at the moment, but it doesn't hurt to say it......"

Xu Wenjing knew that this was Liu Ce giving himself a chance to show himself in front of the generals of the Jingwei battalion, and said: "General, your subordinates strictly follow the strategy of outflanking Langcheng according to your orders, but Langcheng is well guarded, the city is rich in grain and grass, and Wei Chixiang is a famous general of the grassland, if you want to take it down smoothly, the first thing is to cut off Yu Chixiang's right arm, and his subordinates use the benefits of salt and iron to absorb foreign races to disrupt the entire southern Hebei at the same time, and attract the elite of Langcheng by the way, this Wei Chi Lie is Wei Chixiang's own brother, Beheading it to show the public can boost the morale of the new army under the general's rule and shake the hearts of the Langcheng army......"

Speaking of this, Xu Wenjing glanced at Liu Ce, and when he saw Liu Ce's signal, he continued: "Wei Chi Lie is missing, Wei Chi Xiang must be suspicious, but this person is treacherous and cunning, and it is impossible to lightly send the direct subordinates of Hulan in the city to attack, so he will rely on the Hu people of various departments to come to explore the truth of Yun County, and his subordinate generals will set up an ambush on the Hutuo Plain through which they must pass, and wipe out the 6,000 Hulan tribes who came to Yun County in one battle......"

Yang Kaishan, Yang Youhuai, Feng Chounian and others suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, this Xu Wenjing, his scheming was really poisonous......

Xu Wenjing continued: "As soon as the six thousand Hulan dependents die, Wei Chixiang will definitely have a new understanding of the strength of Yunxian County, as his subordinates expected, he will soon go to the northern part of Jizhou and even the grassland to ask for reinforcements, we must capture Langcheng before the Hulan reinforcements arrive, otherwise, everything we have done today will be in vain......

Han Feng couldn't help but say, "Strategist, isn't this a risky move for you?"

Xu Wenjing saluted Han Feng and said, "What Han Ying's envoy said is right, it is indeed a dangerous move, but it is also the best opportunity to capture Langcheng!" ”

Chen Qing's eyes lit up, and he said strangely: "...... do you mean, military advisor?"

Xu Wenjing saw that Chen Qing had understood so quickly, and couldn't help but smile appreciatively at him, and then said: "That's right, when Wei Chixiang sends someone to ask for help, he will definitely shrink into the city to preserve his strength, and we can take this opportunity to outflank Langcheng, and then conquer Langcheng in one fell swoop, and settle the situation in southern Hebei!" ”

Liu Ce, who was sitting in the main hall, listened to Xu Wenjing's words and asked, "As the military advisor said, how long will it take for the northern reinforcements to arrive in Langcheng?"

Xu Wenjing said: "It will take a month at the earliest, which means that the time left for us is only one month, and if we can't take Langcheng within a month, then it's too late......"

"It's enough......" Liu Ce's eyes were murderous, "We must take Langcheng within a month, otherwise, even if the reinforcements from the northern grasslands don't come, we have already failed, and this time I led the army to Jizhou General Ben only brought more than a month of grain and grass, and it was only a month......"

Xu Wenjing couldn't help but feel excited when she saw Liu Ce approving her strategy, but at the same time, she said worriedly: "Although it is not difficult to control the periphery of Langcheng now, after all, Langcheng has a strong city wall and is surrounded by water, so it is really difficult to break through it within a month......

Liu Ce said with a smile: "Military advisor, I said before that I have a way to quickly break through Langcheng, you just need to clear out the tribes of the outer tribes that depend on the Hulan people......"

Xu Wenjing saw that Liu Ce's expression was firm and calm, and knew that he was definitely not simply comforting the army's heart when he said this, he must have already figured out a way to break the city, and he no longer dwelled on this issue, and continued to discuss the relevant points about the capture of Langcheng with everyone......

After discussing the strategy, all the generals retreated and walked out of the yamen, leaving only Liu Ce and Xu Wenjing inside.

After being silent for a long time, Liu Ce's face darkened, and he said to Xu Wenjing: "Xu Wenjing, you are so bold!" ”

Xu Wenjing seemed to have known for a long time, and said calmly: "General, why do you say that? ”

Liu Ce looked at Xu Wenjing, shook his head and said, "Let's say, between you and the Spirit Clan Patriarch...... I really want to cut off your head, what did I tell you before I left, forgot? ”

Xu Wenjing said: "General, this matter is actually good, you don't ......"

"Shut ......up," Liu Ce interrupted him and said, "Do you want to say that Ashima has a very high status in the Spirit Clan, and conquering her will make the Spirit Clan die for the Jingwei Battalion?"

Xu Wenjing smiled and said, "The general is wise! ”

Liu Ce sneered: "Is it to serve me in the Jingwei Battalion, or for you?"

Xu Wenjing couldn't help but get wet behind her when she heard this, and hurriedly bowed down and said to Liu Ce: "General Mingjian, my subordinates will never dare to have such bad thoughts, everything I do is for the general to win Jizhou smoothly......"

Liu Ce was immediately happy when he heard this: "Xu Wenjing, you are such a bastard, you can't help but lower your body to find out such a lame deserved, so General Ben has to thank you?"

Seeing Liu Ce's appearance, Xu Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and hurriedly sneered: "General, you also know that your subordinates are so good, they haven't touched a woman for several months, and they are really tormented in their hearts......

Liu Ce waved his hand to stop him: "Forget it this time, the Spirit Clan Patriarch will arrange it yourself, if there is a ...... next time"

"I would like to behead ...... public," Xu Wenjing said categorically.

Liu Ce got up and said, "Go and prepare for the expedition, and we will go to Langcheng tomorrow......"

"Obey the order...... Xu Wenjing slowly retreated outside the door when he heard this.

At this time, Liu Ce's joking voice came: "Next time, I will cut the two taels of meat on the lower body for you and feed it to the dog......"

Xu Wenjing almost fell down when she stumbled, and couldn't help but clamp her legs......

"The wind is blowing......"

Xu Wenjing, who came to the yamen, looked at the howling wind and muttered to himself......
