Chapter 265: The Mysterious Visitor

"Mr. Wang is right, as long as we can win the war this time, we will definitely be the ones who unify the five countries in the future. Your Highness, the last general asked for orders to lead the army to Hanzhong City to support General Niu. Liu Zixuan was the first to stand up and ask for his life.

"We originally had an army of 50,000 in Hanzhong, but because of Sun Zhongmou's sneak attack, now the number of troops is less than 30,000, General Niu is from the navy, land warfare is not his strength, Hanzhong is the gateway to Sichuan and Shu, the stakes are very important, we must not lose, let's let the last general go." Ling Zhen also stood up and asked for battle.

"Teacher Ling, I brought this up first, you can't fight with me." If it weren't for Ling Zhen being his teacher, Liu Zixuan would have had a seizure on the spot.

"Zixuan, you don't know, our strength is limited, and we can't send more reinforcements to support, so we can only rely on the existing strength to fight against Sun Zhongmou's 150,000 army with 30,000, which is by no means an easy thing, you better let the teacher go."

"I don't need reinforcements, just 30,000 to 150,000, Mr. Ling, I have also spent a lot of time in the military in the past two years, can you look at me with old eyes." Liu Zixuan said unconvinced.

In the past two years, he has not been idle, except for practicing martial arts, he has been in the military camp for the rest of the time, and he often asks Wang Lun to teach him the art of war.

"Teacher Ling, let's let Zixuan go, I'm worried that Qi Guo still has a backhand, in case Tian Wuji takes action personally, only you can deal with him." Shi Luosheng interrupted the two.

"Great, Your Highness, don't worry, I will never let Sun Zhongmou set foot in Hanzhong City." Liu Zixuan was overjoyed.

"Sun Zhongmou is a famous general second only to Tian Wuji in Qi State, you must not be careless, I will give you another 20,000 troops, and let Mr. Wang go with you, do not seek to retreat from the enemy, as long as you can drag him down, even if you have a great achievement." Shi Luosheng admonished again.

"The last general commands."

"Let's talk about Nanjun again, there are only 30,000 defenders there, and there is no general to defend it, in the face of Tian Kangyou's 100,000-strong army's offensive, it is already in danger, Your Highness, who do you think you will send over to support?" Seeing Wang Lun going with him, Ling Zhen no longer insisted and continued to talk about Nanjun.

Shi Luosheng glanced at the generals present, it was very difficult, Tian Kangyou, as a deputy general who had assisted Jiang Huanchu for a long time, was naturally not mediocre, and most of the generals under his command were only good at water warfare, and they really couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while.

"Your Highness, your subordinates ask for orders to lead the army to rescue Nanjun." Yang Yi saw that Shi Luosheng hesitated, so he volunteered to stand up.

"No, Sect Leader Yang is now the Sect Leader of the Tianluo Sect, responsible for the intelligence work of the entire continent, if you go to Nanjun, our intelligence capabilities will be greatly weakened." Before Shi Luosheng could speak, Wang Lun objected.

"Then why don't you transfer Niu Qingyuan from Hanzhong? After all, Tian Kangyou is not as good as Sun Zhongmou, and General Niu will not necessarily lose to him. Shi pre-proposed, but his tone was a little unconfident.

"It's not appropriate, General Niu is good at water warfare, and he should go to support Penglai. As for Nanjun, let's send someone else. Wang Lun is still opposed.

"Your Highness, if you can trust the last general, you might as well send the last general." Just when everyone was embarrassed, a relatively unfamiliar voice came out.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was Xiao Yu, the second prince of the Song Kingdom.

"Second prince, you ......" Shi Luosheng had just opened his mouth when he interrupted him.

"Your Highness, don't call me the second prince, the Great Song Dynasty has perished, and since the last general has defected to the Tianluo Sect, he must correct his identity. When he was in Cangwu City, the last general was defeated by Li Peifu because of arrogance, and for more than ten years, the last general has been practicing hard in Longchuan, hoping that one day he can fight with the heroes of the world, and I hope you can give the last general a chance. Xiao Yu looked resolute.

"Okay, Xiao Yu stepped forward to listen to the order, and I will also give you 20,000 troops to go to support Nanjun, and ask the same as Zixuan, don't ask to retreat from the enemy, as long as you can hold him back." Shi Luosheng thought for a moment, and finally agreed.

"Let's talk about Penglai, just now Mr. Wang said that General Niu would be transferred to Penglai, and the last general also agreed. In terms of the water army, Qi is no longer our opponent, and this time we suffered a small loss, but it was just because of Zeng Dong's sneak attack. Transfer Niu Qingyuan to Penglai to defend the town, and then let Ni Yun outflank him from Xianghu, Changxing Island and Xiachuan Island at the same time, and he will definitely be able to repeat the scene of defeating Jiang Huanyan back then. Ling Zhen continued.

Shi Luosheng nodded: "Hanzhong and Nanjun are both defense-oriented, water battles are our only advantage, Penglai must win, and it must be a big victory." In addition to what Teacher Ling just said, I also plan to ask Huang Songsheng and Dong Liang from Taihu Lake to send troops to attack Xiakou from the waterway. ”

"Sneak attack on Xiakou? Now that the Qi-Wei Alliance, without the cooperation on land, even if Xiakou is defeated, it is useless? Yang Yi didn't react for a while.

"Sect Leader Yang doesn't know that His Royal Highness's purpose is not Xiakou, but Jiaozhou, and sending troops to Xiakou is just to surround but not fight, and hide people's eyes. Dong Liang attracted the attention of Qi and Wei there, while Huang Songsheng secretly Chen Cang and led his army down the river to attack Jiaozhou. Wang Lun explained with a smile.

"What Mr. Wang said is right, but there is still Lu Xinghai in Jiaozhou, this person is the third brother's mentor, and he must not be taken lightly. Huang Songsheng only has one chance to sneak attack, whether it succeeds or not, he has to quickly withdraw and come back to cut off Zeng Dong's way back, and the lowest goal this time is to annihilate these hundred warships. Shi Luosheng set a strategic goal.

Ling Zhen nodded: "As long as the naval army can win a big victory, and then divide the troops to surround Jiaozhou and Beihai, we can negotiate with Qi and ask them to withdraw their troops from Hanzhong and Nanjun, if they don't agree, then Jiaozhou doesn't say whether they can win, at least all the Beihai area will fall into our hands." ”

Liu Zixuan and Xiao Yu listened to the whole strategy, and once again said: "Please rest assured, we will ensure that Hanzhong (Nanjun) will not be lost." ”

"After talking about the three armies of the Qi State, let's talk about the three roads of the Wei State. Wu Shuang led an army of 100,000 to attack Guangyuan City, which should be just for show. General Ning is a person who can carry Tian Wuji, and he also has an army of 100,000 in his hands, I believe that with General Ning's talent, he will be able to counterattack and attack, not only defeat Wu Shuang, but also counterattack Shaozhou. Ling Zhen is full of confidence in Ning Unyielding, this is a general who has grown up from the war after more than ten years of war.

"General Ning's side doesn't have to worry, but Jeju and Qindi are not optimistic. Deng Wenhao has been by Deng Yuanjue's side for more than ten years, and General Gao is not his opponent at all. In addition, Sect Leader Yang's worries about Jeju are not unreasonable, in case Guo Xu and Xun Yuqing both take the opportunity to surrender to Wei, it will cut off the connection between us and Qin. Shi was full of sorrow, and he was quite troubled by the offensive of the Wei State.

"Jeju don't worry, if Guo Taishou and General Xun want to surrender to Wei, they will surrender before the war, and they will never drag it out until now." Shi Luosheng had no doubts about the loyalty of the two.

"Even if His Highness believes in them, he can't help but prevent accidents, I suggest replacing them first, I believe they can understand." Yang Yi also insisted on his own opinion.

"When Zhou Yunjing was in the Chu State back then, he was on a par with Xiang Chu, and now apart from General Xun, who else can resist him?" Shi Luosheng asked rhetorically.

Everyone thought for a moment, but there was no suitable candidate.

Shi Luosheng said again: "Instead of reluctantly changing someone to go up, and finally lost Jeju, not to mention losing his life in vain, and chilling the hearts of Guo Taishou and General Xun, why bother?" Why don't you all be like me and believe in them? ”

"Your Highness is right, have you all forgotten that it was because Emperor Yan Zhu Tingxun didn't believe in General Niu that the Yan Kingdom perished so quickly, do we want to repeat the mistakes of the past? Besides, General Zixuan, Guo Taishou and General Xun followed His Highness to suppress bandits in Dongshan, I know very well that they are human beings and will never betray Your Highness, so don't worry. After speaking, Wang Lun glanced at Liu Zixuan again.

Liu Zixuan said: "Yes, I absolutely believe in their people." Besides, there is still a naval army of Ni Yun in Jeju, if there is anything wrong, he can also give us an early warning, so everyone can rest assured. ”

Seeing that Wang Lun and Liu Zixuan, the two "veteran" figures, were supportive, everyone stopped saying anything.

"Jeju remains unchanged for the time being, and Xun Yuqing still commands the army, and Ni Yun's army does the maneuvering. Finally, let's talk about Qindi, which has the largest gap in strength, Qingzhou has lost three cities, and if it continues to fight like this, it won't be long before most of Qindi will fall. Ling Zhen continued, this last army.

Everyone present knew that in terms of strength, Gao Kegong was not outstanding, and compared with Deng Wenhao, the gap was not small. In addition, in the past two years, the focus of Qindi's work has been on economic development, and the military has not only not expanded the army, but has reduced a lot.

"Why don't we ask Yan Chixing to send troops to contain Deng Wenhao." Yang Yi proposed that he also sign the alliance with Yan Chixing on behalf of the Tianluo Sect two years ago.

"I'm afraid it's difficult, Wu Teng, the number two person on the Wei side, didn't participate in this war, I think Deng Yuanjue asked him to stay in Chuzhou to prevent Yan Chixing from participating in the war." Wang Lun shook his head.

"What about Wu Changchen? Can he send Wu Changchen to send troops from Yanzhou? Yang Yi continued to ask.

"Yanzhou's troops are limited, even if Wu Changchen is willing to send troops, it will be a drop in the bucket and will not solve practical problems." Wang Lun still shook his head.

The others also thought of a lot of plans, but there was really a shortage of generals in the Tianluo Sect who could fight land battles, and none of them could convince everyone.

Shi Luosheng also went through all the generals under his command, and felt that except for sending Ling Zhen or going on himself, there was really no one who could deal with Deng Wenhao.

But Ling Zhen was left in order to guard against Tian Wuji, and he had to be careful that Deng Yuanjue suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Jiang Wan'er suddenly walked in and said to everyone with a happy face: "Everyone, who are coming?" ”

After speaking, she turned sideways and walked in from behind her, and everyone was overjoyed.
