Liu Zixuan saw that everyone present didn't speak, and he also thought clearly about the powerful relationship inside, so together with everyone, they all looked at Shi Luosheng.

Shi Luosheng looked at Jiang Wan'er's expectant eyes and smiled, held her hand, and said to everyone: "Although General Deng is powerful, we may not lose to him." Huan Chu is not only Wan'er's brother, but also my friend for many years. Back then, at the bottom of the Wuling Valley, I was just an assassin sent out by Deng Yuanjue, and Huan Chu had the opportunity to kill me, but not only did he not do it, but he also healed my injuries. ”

"Later, I rebuilt the Tianluo Sect on Changxing Island, and I also received strong support from Huan Chu, who not only gave me money and food, but also sent five hundred craftsmen to help me. It can be said that without Huan Chu, there would be no Tianluo Sect where we are today, and now that he needs help, how can we sit idly by, so I decided to give up encircling and suppressing Deng Yuanjue and send troops to help Huan Chu regain the throne. ”

"I thank you for the fourth brother." Jiang Wan'er choked up a little after hearing this, she knew that the Tianluo Sect might miss the best opportunity to seize the world because of this repayment.

If Shi Luosheng still decided to encircle and suppress Deng Yuanjue at this time, there was no doubt that the Tianluo Sect army, which had an absolute advantage, could easily defeat him.

And Jiang Huan Chu led the army back to Shangjing, no matter what the final win or loss was, he would fight with Jiang Huan Song to lose both, and then Shi Luosheng would take advantage of the victory to send troops to Qi State, and the five countries might be unified.

Shi Luosheng said with a smile: "You don't have to be polite between me and Huan Chu, and I don't have to mention the word thank you with you." ”

After speaking, he turned to the generals and said: "Now that the goal has changed, our strategy must also be changed." Huan Chu holds Jiang Wushuang's edict and has political legitimacy. And Jiang Huan Song will lose the hearts of the people because of this, and it is not difficult to defeat him. ”

"The only difficulty is that he has just incorporated Zeng Dong's 300,000 troops, and then the troops originally stationed in Shangjing, the troops he can use are close to 500,000, which is more than twice the total strength of General Huan Chu and Tian."

Wang Lun pointed to Hanzhong on the map and proposed: "The 300,000 troops were all led by Jiang Huanyan during his lifetime, and Zeng Dong is the deputy general, let him persuade them to surrender and maybe they can win without a fight." ”

Shi Luosheng nodded: "I have this intention, this battle seems to be huge, but in fact, it is not difficult to solve." As long as Huan Chu can successfully return to Shangjing to succeed to the throne, the war will be over. Therefore, I will suggest that Zeng Dong return to Kaifeng to help Huan Chu, with the help of him and General Tian, I believe that before returning to Beijing, there will be no resistance. ”

"This is no problem, I will write a letter to General Zeng and ask him to return to Kaifeng, but after he leaves, what will General Sun do outside Hanzhong City? He also has an army of 100,000 men. Jiang Wan'er was worried that Sun Zhongmou would take advantage of the situation.

"This doesn't matter, I believe that Mr. Ling has been itching in Yungui for the past two years, let him go to Hanzhong to replace General Zeng, I believe he will be happy." Shi Luosheng pointed to Yunnan on the map.

"If General Ling goes to the battlefield, wouldn't General Deng be able to easily deduce that the Tianluo Sect was actually established by you?" Jiang Wan'er asked worriedly again.

"Deng Yuanjue has already begun to doubt, with his character, all the next layouts will also be aimed at us, and it is pointless to hide it any longer, so he simply admits it generously." Since Shi Luosheng decided to help Jiang Huan Chu, he was ready to use all his strength to transfer Ling Zhendu, the first battle general under his command.

"Although Sun Zhongmou has been famous for a long time, he is afraid that he has no chance of winning against Ling Zhen. In this case, Niu Qingyuan doesn't have to stay in Yandi, it is better to let him and Ni Yun lead a naval army to attack Beihai, which can also relieve some pressure on the four princes. Shi Yu suddenly proposed.

"Speaking of sending troops to Beihai, Gang Leader Lu should also raise troops from Jiaozhou to respond to the fourth brother, so that we have a five-way army, and we will definitely be able to avenge the third brother this time." Jiang Wan'er listened to everyone's suggestions and clapped her hands excitedly.

Shi Luosheng glanced at Shi Yu with a little meaning, thought for a while, and said, "If you don't have any other opinions, then it's decided." Wan'er, you are responsible for informing General Zeng and telling him and Huan Chu what we have discussed. Mr. Wang, you and Niu Qingyuan will send troops to Beihai together, and at the same time let Unyielding suspend the plan to send troops to Jizhou. In the end, Zixuan, you and Sect Master Yang stayed in Rongcheng for the time being, and were ready to go to the battlefield if the battle situation changed. ”

All the generals present had no objection and went their separate ways. Shi Luosheng gave Shi a look, and the latter understood and deliberately stayed at the end.

"Are you asking why I proposed to send troops to the North Sea?" After everyone dispersed, Shi Yu looked at Shi Luosheng and asked first.

Shi Luosheng didn't answer, just smiled bitterly.

Shi Yu sighed: "I know the friendship between you and Jiang Huan Chu, but if he can defeat Jiang Huan Song this time and ascend the throne as the new Emperor of Qi, can the friendship between you still be as pure as before?" ”

"In fact, you don't need me to say these truths, you can understand that as a politician, you shouldn't have personal friendships, you can't have them, and Jiang Huan Chu won't have them in the future. If we lose to General Deng one day, the root of the defeat is because of the decision you made today. ”

Seeing that Shi Luosheng lowered his head and didn't speak, Shi Yu didn't want to make too many accusations on this issue, so he returned to the topic just now: "If I don't make a mistake, the mainland will be divided into three parts of the world in the future, General Deng will occupy Chu and Song, our Tianluo Sect will occupy Yan and Qin, and Qi will remain unchanged, as for Yan Chixing and Xiang Chu, they are at most local separatist forces." ”

"Sir's inference is right, in the future, the world will be divided into three, General Deng's military strength will be the first of the three kingdoms, and in terms of economy, we will be the leader, as for the Qi country, because of this civil strife and the loss of the North Seaport, it will take a back seat." Shi Luosheng also agreed with Shi Yu's words.

Beihai Port is one of the four most developed port cities in mainland China, and it is also the economic lifeline of Qi connecting Siam and Annam. The reason why Shi Yu proposed to let Niu Qingyuan and Ni Yun seize Beihai just now was out of consideration for attacking the economy of Qi State, otherwise the Tianluo Sect would still be the weakest one among the three kingdoms in the future.

In terms of military strength, Deng Yuanjue's fierce generals are like clouds, and the national army has more than 600,000 troops, and after the Song State is incorporated, this number will reach 800,000.

In terms of economic strength, Qi is an old power, even if this civil strife will have a great impact on them, but with its profound heritage, it will be fully recovered in less than two years.

On the other hand, the Tianluo Sect, due to its late start, although it has a large amount of land, the Yan Land and the Qin Land themselves are not rich, so it is difficult to compete with the first two in the short term. The only advantage is to rely on overseas trade to boost the mainland's economy, so having an additional northern harbor is very important to the Tianluo Sect.

Regarding the proposal to send troops to Beihai, Shi Luosheng also agreed after thinking about it, otherwise he would not have arranged for Wang Lun to go with Niu Qingyuan and Ni Yun at the end of the meeting, because he was afraid that the two of them would not understand their minds.

As Shi Pre expected, after Ding Jiaxuan left the Tianluo Sect that day, he inquired with a few people in Rongcheng, and after asking, he learned that Shi Pre, who had just met him, was a fake.

After learning the news, they quickly returned to Yuzhou to report to Deng Yuanjue, who immediately concluded that the leader of the Luo Sect was Shi Luosheng who had gone overseas by faking his death.

Wu Teng and Deng Wenhao knew Shi Luosheng well, and knew that once he made a move, he would never just send Ning Buqu all the way over, and the surrounding Jiang Huanchu, Yan Chixing, Tian Wuji and others would definitely be in his plan.

"General, once Tian Wuji and Jiang Huanchu send troops, Wen Jie may not be able to resist alone, why don't I go back and help him?" Wu Teng was worried about the loss of Zhoukou and threatened Shouchun.

Deng Yuanjue kept staring at the map, and after a long time, he spoke: "Compared to Zhoukou, I am more worried that Luosheng will send people to attack Xiakou, Tianluo Sect is not short of water warfare experts, and except for Zhengming who knows a little about water warfare, no one else in our army is good at it." ”

"Then I will ask for orders to go back and garrison Xiakou." Lei Zhengming heard the general mention himself, and hurriedly stood up and asked for his life.

Deng Yuanjue shook his head: "No, after Xiao Yan, the loser, ceded Jeju to the Tianluo Sect, he transferred Huang Songsheng to Taihu Lake. If I'm not mistaken, Huang Songsheng, Yue Shouming, and Dong Liang are all people who have fallen to the top, and once they sneak up on us from the water, you can still deal with it if you stay here. ”

"It's a pity that Yuqing is not here, he is also proficient in water warfare, otherwise it can be a big help for us." Lei Zhengming saw that his proposal was rejected, and he remembered Xun Yuqing again.

Deng Wenhao snorted coldly: "Why are you mentioning him, he is now the commander of the Jeju City Defense Army, and he has surrendered to the Tianluo Sect together with Jeju County." Father, let me go back to guard Xiakou, I want to see how powerful the Tianluo Sect's navy is. ”

Deng Yuanjue still didn't say anything, although he had a lot of generals, but he couldn't stand up to more hostile forces, Wu Shuang had already gone to Shaozhou to defend Ning Bulu, and then transferred Wu Teng or Deng Wenhao away, then the manpower of the Song Dynasty would be insufficient.

"Wu Teng, Yunjing, are you sure to take Yuzhou within ten days?"

Zhou Yunjing and the two glanced at each other: "The last general will do his best." ”

Since Zhou Yunjing took over the military power, he has been attacking Yuzhou City day and night, and when he was about to take it, Xiao Yin suddenly brought 20,000 forbidden troops to support. Although he has also consumed a lot of money for the other party in the past month, he is not sure that the city will be broken within ten days.

Deng Yuanjue glanced at Wu Teng: "The people of Yuzhou are not helping each other now, you have been operating in Yuzhou for more than ten years, can't you convince them to help us?" ”

"It is not difficult to convince the people, and the last general believes that most of the people in the city are still biased towards us in their hearts, but there is still a lack of a leader among them." Speaking of this, Wu Teng thought about it, as if he had made up his mind: "The last general asks for his order to sneak into the city and be the one who takes the lead." ”

Without waiting for Deng Yuanjue to answer, Zhou Yunjing took the lead in objecting: "No, General Wu is the number two person in our army, once we fail, the blow to our army is immeasurable, we can't take this risk." ”
