"What's not true? The defeated army is weak, and it is no different from a farmer... Could it be that the cost will force you to wait to return to Yecheng? ”

"It's... This..."Gongsun Li didn't understand Lin Xiu's meaning for a while, swallowed half of his words, and almost stuck him to death, but Fang Hua came behind him and slapped him down, and Gongsun Li took a deep breath.

"Ahem..."Gongsun Li swallowed the dried meat in his mouth, as if he didn't believe it: "You're going to Yecheng?" ”

"Why not?"

"The Jianghuai army has occupied Yecheng, and the noble general is the army of the northern frontier, and he is rushing south, which is to rush to the rescue... The consequences are also quite severe..."At this time, Gongsun Li already knew the identity of the young general in front of him, but in his eyes, how could the rookie army compare to King Yan's Jianghuai army?

Facing Gongsun Li's doubts and worries, Lin Xiu got up: "Since you have eaten and drunk enough, answer the general's question, what is the situation in Yecheng?" What other ways to cross the Liao River, in addition to the Yanjin Ferry and the Beijing-Tianjin Estuary Bridge? All of them are told, if you dare to deceive with a word, you will not blame Ben for not being merciful! ”

Enwei and Shi, Gongsun Li didn't dare to do anything at all, he wiped his mouth and said: "The general is around the life of a certain person, this En is in mind, before a certain was pursued by the Yan army in Yecheng, and had to flee north of the river, taking the Beijing-Tianjin estuary bridge, but it has been guarded by the Yan army..."

"You... Say it's useful, don't want that nonsense to shake me and wait! ”

The general was at the head of the line, Zhao Yuan screamed, Gongsun Li wiped the sweat on his forehead, nodded and said: "In fact, if your army wants to cross the Liao River, there are other ways, but the danger factor is quite large, I don't know..."

Gongsun Li hesitated slightly, and Lin Xiu got up: "You can talk about it for the time being!" ”

"Fifteen miles downstream of the Beijing-Tianjin estuary bridge, there is a three-mile-wide shallow, it is now the end of summer, there will be a short receding situation before the river flood arrives, if the time is right, you will be able to build a pontoon bridge in the shallows, and simply cross the river!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiu signaled to Tang Chuanwen, Tang Chuanwen immediately opened the map of the Liaohe River, and after his careful investigation, he really found the shoal point that Gongsun Li said, and after thinking about it, Zhuang Fei said: "General, I only thought of a plan below, if I can, maybe I can take the opportunity to fight the enemy first!" ”

When Lin Xiu was thinking about crossing the river to the south, Zhang Qi and Li Tian were also discussing the next strategy for marching.

"Jing Yun, what the hell is this Zhong Yi doing? Camped on the spot, could it be that he was going to build a ship here? ”

Zhang Qi was puzzled, and Li Tian shook his head: "No, Zhong Yi is not a pedantic person, especially in military strategy, it can be said that he is above you and me, such a person, do you think he will stubbornly build a boat to cross the river?" ”

"Aren't I irritable!" Zhang Qi paced back and forth a few steps: "I have bowed to him before, and even invested in the grain and grass of Licheng Mansion to supply him with more than 10,000 Bei'an troops, but I didn't even give him the qualification to participate in the military strategy, which really makes me sad!" ”

"Yu Zhi, it's not that Zhong Yi doesn't allow it, it's that the gang under him don't want to!" Li Tian's words changed, and Zhang Qi frowned: "You mean... Those of his generals? ”

Li Tian nodded: "When I was marching before, I heard that among the four generals under Lin Xiu, Tang Chuanwen and Zhuang Fei are good at military strategy, deep planning, and are capable, judging from their words, they must be disciples of some families, these people are in the army, as long as there is no accident, they will inevitably focus on the general's great interests, I estimate that your behavior has aroused the vigilance of these people, so Lin Xiu will deliberately hide and avoid you from the discussion of military strategy!" ”

"Damn... These bastards! Zhang Qi was angry for a while: "No, I have to go to see Zhong Yi, this southward march is related to our future, we must not be sloppy, compared to the right path, I am ashamed of myself as good as Zhong Yi, but in the dark line, ten Zhong Yi is not my opponent... I can't let him lead us wrongly..."

After thinking about it, Zhang Qi went to the barracks of the Bei'an Army, and Hua Tieli, who was on duty, stopped Zhang Qi: "Little Grandpa Zhang, it's getting late, and the general has already rested..."

"You dodge the master!" Zhang Qi didn't put Hua Tieli in his eyes at all, and in the scream, Hua Tieli's face twitched, and Zhang Qi shouted: "The war is urgent, the situation in the capital is unknown, how could Zhong Yi rest so early?" You don't have to say more, get out of the way immediately, I have military affairs to discuss with Zhong Yi! ”

Zhang Qi said that he was going to enter the camp, and Hua Tieli was angry: "Little Grandpa Zhang, don't be presumptuous, this is the Bei'an Army, not you Licheng!" ”

As the voices of the two became more and more intense, Liu Pan came out of the camp tent, and he said to Hua Tieli: "Lao Hua, aren't you tired and stupid from the march for days, let the little grandfather come in immediately!" ”

With these words, Hua Tieli snorted coldly and turned around, Zhang Qi immediately entered, and finally Liu Pan said to Hua Tieli: "Pay attention next time, let's use other people's grain and grass, give him three points of respect on face, and you can't suffer a loss!" ”

"Whew!" Hua Tieli spat heavily: "This person is slippery and treacherous, by no means a good breed, Lao Tzu was a thief back then, but anyone who encounters this kind of master who hides his heart for profit is tortured by three knives and six axes, I really don't know what the general thinks, he actually let such a person go south with us..."

Listening to Hua Tieli's skyrocketing, Liu Pan was so frightened that he raised his hand to cover his mouth: "You bastard, what kind of thief are you talking nonsense, remember, you are now the pioneer of the sixth school of the Bei'an Army, a dignified man, it's not Lao Tzu who abuses you, if you let the general hear what you just said, you will be condemned for thirty military staffs... It's just a thing that doesn't have a long brain! ”

In the tent, Lin Xiu asked Zhang Qi to sit on the steps, Zhang Qi smiled and retreated, naturally he should go down, Lin Xiu said: "Brother Yu, I have thought of crossing the river strategy, but before that, there is something that you need to explain!" ”

"Zhong Yi, please speak, I will go all out for my brother!"

"Yecheng has been occupied by the Jianghuai Yan army, and this crossing of the river will inevitably lead to the first hard battle of the southward rush to aid Zhongdu..."

"It's better to fight hard than to fight at all!" Zhang Qi laughed: "Besides, fame must be obtained from the horse, let's go south to help, if we don't have a war, how to make a name for ourselves!" ”

"Brother Yu Zhi can think like this, Brother Yu is deeply grateful!"

Then Zhang Qi suggested a few words to Lin Xiu, and then left to return to the camp, and Zhuang Fei only then spoke: "General, see it, your good brother is too utilitarian... The Bad One! ”

"General, the subordinates suggest that we lure the weak battle and relate to the rear, all of our people will come, don't let him get involved, in case there is any accident, it will be slightly unfavorable to the next army!" Tang Chuanwen also suggested, but Lin Xiu shook his head and responded for a while: "It's not that easy, my friend from the academy... Extraordinary utilitarians, his vision... You may not be lower than me in the same position! ”

Some troubled things poured into his heart, Lin Xiu took a few sips of sake, refreshed his mind, and let him leave Gongsun and said: "Take me to the shallows immediately, I want to find out!" ”

Yecheng, the morning sun shines from the eastern sky, Lu Yan came to the city tower early in the morning, the junior colonel on duty looked at it, and hurriedly said: "General, why are you here?" It's windy here, you go into the doorway to rest, and your subordinates will serve you tea later! ”
