When the two of them saw Ning Buing, Shi Luosheng went straight to the point and said: "Commander Ning, please step back, what we are going to say is very important, we must keep it secret, and we must not leak it out." ”

Ning Buqu saw that Shi Luosheng was solemn, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly let the left and right retreat and asked, "Taifu, what happened?" ”

Shi Luosheng told the situation of the trip to the Qi State, and did not hide the true purpose of the Qi State.

Ning Buqu's expression was solemn after hearing this, and he also knew that it would be difficult to persuade Emperor Song not to send troops, otherwise Shi Luosheng would not come to him, so he asked, "Taifu has a way to deal with it?" ”

Shi Luosheng nodded and said: "That's why I came to you today, there is still more than half a month before the Qi State will send troops to the Chu State, although the relationship between your Yan State and the Chu State is not as good as before, but the alliance between the two countries has not been dissolved." You hurry up and repair a letter to General Ning now, and ask him to inform Xiang Tong in advance, saying that the last time Jiang Huanchu participated in the Young Hero Competition, he was chased and killed by the people of the Hidden Star Sect, and almost lost his life in Shouyang Mountain, Jiang Wushuang sent troops to Changli this time to avenge Jiang Huanchu. ”

Ning was puzzled: "Notice Xiang Tong? Qi Guo didn't plan to really fight Changli, and it would be useless for us to inform Xiang Tong to take precautions early. ”

Shi Luosheng said: "The purpose of informing Xiang Tong is not to let him prepare, but also to tell him that your Yan Kingdom intends to use this opportunity to join forces with him and severely damage the 150,000 army of Qi State. ”

Ning Bu was shocked when he heard this, and said with some unconfidence: "Severely damage the 150,000 Qi army? Can we do this? ”

Shi Luosheng said: "Whether it can be done depends on how it is arranged, if it is arranged well, Emperor Xiong Huan of Chu will be like our majesty, and he will not be able to withstand the temptation of being able to hit the Qi army hard." ”

Ning Bu Bu agrees with this, Chu Emperor Xiong Huan is also as ambitious as Jiang Wushuang, but the national strength of Chu is slightly weaker, and his performance on weekdays is not as obvious as Jiang Wushuang. If there is a chance to inflict heavy damage on the Qi army, Xiong Huan will definitely try.

Ning Buqu asked: "Taifu said this, there must be a way, and please ask Taifu to teach me." ”

Shi Luosheng didn't sell Guan Zi either, picked up the map on the table and said while comparing it: "General Ning will go and tell Xiang Tong first, let Xiang Tong drag the Qi army in Changli City." As soon as the two armies of Qi and Chu fight, you will send a light cavalry to set off from Nanjun and secretly go to Nanyang City of Qi to cut off the return route of the Qi army. ”

"Your current main force is still fighting fiercely with the Qi army in Hanzhong City, the Qi army must not have imagined that at this time you still dare to attack Nanyang, without defense, it is not difficult to capture Nanyang. And our Great Song and Qi agreed to send troops after two months, that is to say, the grain and grass brought by the Qi army will not exceed three months. When the supply line is broken, and your Yan and Chu armies are flanked back and forth, will the Qi army still be able to fly out? ”

Shi Luosheng actually didn't say anything later, that is, when the Chu-Yan coalition army attacked the Qi army, the attention of the whole Chu State would definitely be on the Qi-Chu battlefield.

Ning Buqu was a little worried while being overjoyed after hearing this: "Taifu's strategy is indeed good, but if the Qi army is prepared, these 30,000 people will be surrounded by the 150,000 army that attacked Changli City." ”

Shi Luosheng asked rhetorically, "Do you have any other choice now?" If you don't seize this opportunity, can Yan Guo hold out for a few more years? If you don't fight, you will slowly wait for death, Bo may be looking for death, or it may be a desperate situation, not to mention that the winning rate this time is not low, in exchange for an opportunity with 30,000 light horses, wouldn't Commander Ning dare to give it a try? ”

Ning Buqu was agitated by Shi Luosheng, and suddenly became arrogant: "Let Taifu see it and laugh, how can I be afraid of death, I will write a letter to my uncle to explain this matter, and then ask His Majesty for an order, personally lead 30,000 light cavalry to fight a decisive battle with the Qi army, and the Penglai Navy will be handed over to Niu Qingyuan to command." ”

Time was pressing, and everyone was in no mood to talk about it anymore, Shi Luosheng and the others rushed back to Jianye directly without stopping, and Ning Buqu also went to Anyang alone.

As soon as they entered the city, the two went straight to the General's Mansion, and then entered the palace with Deng Yuanjue to see Xiao Daocheng.

After listening to Shi Luosheng's entire plan, Xiao Daocheng asked Deng Yuanjue's opinion. Deng Yuanjue had already heard Shi Luosheng say it on the way here, and Shi Luosheng also said another idea, and now Xiao Daocheng asked himself, just in time to say it.

Deng Yuanjue said: "Luosheng's plan is indeed perfect, but whether it can be implemented depends on the cooperation of Yan and Chu." The key to the whole plan is Ning Buqu's 30,000 light horses, if he can successfully take Nanyang City, the rest will not be difficult to achieve. At that time, Luosheng and I will each bring 30,000 people, divide our troops into two routes, and take Jizhou County directly, and it is not impossible to take the whole county within three months. ”

After speaking, Deng Yuanjue paused slightly, looked at Xiao Daocheng and said: "But if Ning Buqu is defeated, and all 30,000 light cavalry are surrounded and annihilated by the Qi army, the minister implores His Majesty to give up the plan to attack Chu." Because at that time, the Qi army will definitely have no intention of fighting Changli again, and after we are put into the battlefield, they will withdraw and leave, taking advantage of the defeat of the Yan army, to attack the Yan State with all their might, and we will face the counterattack of the Chu State alone. ”

Deng Yuanjue's words were what Shi Luosheng said to him just now, no matter whether Ning Buqu can take Nanyang City or not, anyway, the Great Song Dynasty will be invincible first, and then choose the opportunity to act.

Xiao Daocheng thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he agreed to Deng Yuanjue's suggestion. At the same time, he was also very satisfied with Deng Yuanjue's proposal to divide half of the troops to Shi Luosheng and go to Jizhou County together.

After all, the army of the Great Song Dynasty, Xiao Daocheng said that it was controlled by Deng Yuanjue. Even if Shi Luosheng came up with this plan, the final implementation had to be completed by Deng Yuanjue's army. If everything goes well, it will be a huge credit, Deng Yuanjue himself does not monopolize it, and Xiao Daocheng is naturally satisfied.

Besides, on the side of Yan State, Yan Emperor Zhu Tingxun listened to Ning Unyielding's report, convened his ministers overnight to discuss all night, and finally decided to send troops to fight.

Zhu Tingxun told the general Ning Zeping of his plan, if Ning did not give in, he would send troops to drag the Qi army and prevent them from withdrawing in time to rescue Nanyang. If you don't give in and miss, you must also be prepared to defend on all fronts.

In addition, Zhu Tingxun secretly transferred 30,000 light cavalry from all over the country to Nanjun in batches, and handed them over to Ning Buqu to command, and at the same time sent Ning Zefeng to lead the elders of the Ghost Shadow Sect to accompany the army. This battle is related to the life and death of Yan State, and Zhu Tingxun has to be cautious.

This tense atmosphere also spread to the court of the Chu State, and the Chu Emperor Xiong Huan also received news from Xiang Tong and was discussing with his ministers whether to unite with the Yan army to flank the Qi army.

Xiong Huan, as Shi Luosheng expected, was also thrilled in the face of the temptation of severely damaging the 150,000 army of the Qi State. Even if it is a big country like Qi, the number of armored soldiers in the whole country is only 600,000, and if a quarter of the troops are lost in this battle, Chu will not lose too far to Qi, at least militarily.
