Li Yan exposed Fang Yuan's strategy in person, but Fang Yuan didn't panic, took a sip of tea leisurely, looked at Li Yan and asked, "Since Gongzi Li thinks that I want to conquer King Chuang, I dare to come to the Regent's Mansion in person, why is it?!" Is it here to surrender? ”

Li Yan said awe-inspiringly, "King Chuang has the grace of knowing me, and loyal ministers can't do anything to the two masters." What's more, what is the difference between the regent's treachery and the stabbing of Soochow in the back? Who would dare to serve a man of his word, such as the regent? ”

Fang Yuan smiled and said, "Gongzi Li, you keep saying that I am treacherous, but you don't know that there is a big righteousness and a small righteousness. My covenant with King Chuang is only a small righteousness, and the unification of the world is a great righteousness, and those who should sacrifice small righteousness and take great righteousness are also. ”

Li Yan stared at Fang Yuan coldly, and then sneered and said, "The so-called praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches, and the regent thinks he is a yellow finch, but he doesn't know that he is also a praying mantis!" ”

When Fang Yuan heard that Li Yan had come alone, he was actually here as a lobbyist for Li Zicheng, so he couldn't help but laugh, personally poured Li Yan full of tea, and asked, "Li Gongzi, but I heard about it." ”

Li Yan said in a deep voice, "My family is the king, the regent is a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of the court, the regent does not go to the Northern Expedition, the Qing monarch is on the side, but he comes to fight with my family's king, aren't you worried that the two armies of you and me will go to war, and the court will suddenly copy the regent's Zhezhi region?!" ”

Fang Yuan smiled, there was no need for Li Yan to remind him, he had already calculated in his heart the various possibilities after the Western Expedition, and the imperial court would take advantage of the Xuanjia Army's Western Expedition to attack Jiangnan, which was naturally also calculating.

But as a commander-in-chief, he has a lot of information and information gathered in front of him, and the possibility of various consequences will naturally be analyzed. However, the possibility of various consequences is large and small, according to Fang Yuan's judgment, Jiangnan is now negotiating peace with the imperial court, coupled with the imminent invasion of the Manchu Qing in the north, the possibility that the imperial court will suddenly go south to Jiangnan at this time is indeed very small.

There is no perfect strategy in this world, and of course there are pros and cons to each strategy. Afraid of wolves and tigers, how can you achieve great things?

How many heroes and heroes in ancient and modern times, a strategy has a fifty percent chance that you can bet on your net worth and your life.

When Xiang Yu broke the kettle and sank the boat, how sure could Han Xin be when he secretly Chen Cang? When Chen Qingzhi led 7,000 people to the Northern Expedition, how sure was it? When Deng Ai smuggled into Yinping, how sure was it? It is the closest to this battle of Huguang, when Lu Meng crossed the river in white clothes, how sure could he be?

Those who can succeed in a war and become a famous general will never be a person who is timid and looks forward to the future.

What's more, the probability of the imperial court sending troops south is only one or two percent at most, if he doesn't even dare to gamble on this, Fang Yuan might as well hand over his power earlier and become a free prince.

Fang Yuan smiled and said, "As long as my soldiers are fast, take advantage of the fact that the main force of King Chuang has not returned to help, and capture Huguang." The imperial court is going south, and I have time to return to help. If Sun Quan had been looking forward to the future when he attacked Jingzhou back then, Jingzhou and Soochow still had a half-dime relationship?! ”

Li Yan said in a cold voice, "The so-called speed of the regent's soldiers is just to send a sailor to attack Yichang and Yiling, cutting off the passage for King Chuang to come back for help!" The regent has a thunderous army, and the king himself has a way to defend himself. ”

Fang Yuan's mind was seen through by Li Yan at a glance, and he secretly smacked his tongue, worthy of Li Zicheng's praise as Li Yan who has the talent of heaven and earth! What made Fang Yuan even more shocked was that since Li Yan dared to come alone, of course he had already informed the army of Fang Yuan's military sneak attack plan before leaving. If this sneak attack on Yichang and Yiling becomes an open secret, the chances of success in the first battle will be much smaller.

Fang Yuan closed his eyes slightly, and said lightly, "What is the defense strategy of Li Gongzi, would you like to hear about it?" ”

Li Yan said loudly, "I am in the Wuchang and Hanyang sections of the Dajiang River, there are three lines of defense, and I can snipe at the regent's sailors for at least ten days and half a month!" In the narrow section of the Yuezhou River, I scuttled 300 civilian boats loaded with boulders, and the river was already difficult to navigate. If the regent's sailors want to pass, they will inevitably be delayed for half a month. ”

"It's been more than a month since this came and went, and before I left, I sent an urgent military message to King Chuang, asking King Chuang to send 30,000 light cavalry and 70,000 infantry to help. In the regent's strategic plan, it is not estimated that it will take one or two months for King Chuang to return from Sichuanchu! ”

Fang Yuan listened to Li Yan's strategic deployment, and secretly gritted his teeth in anger, so that his plan to attack Yichang and Yiling would fail. If you want to conquer Huguang and Henan, you must start a war with Li Zicheng.

It wasn't until he was poured a basin of cold water on Li Yan's head at this time that Fang Yuan woke up from the dream of unifying the world with a raise of his hand. Where is the unification of the world expected to be so good, unless your enemies are all fools and brain-dead, whatever you want.

But the ruthless facts have proved that Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou of the imperial court, and Li Yan who broke into the army are all first-class Wang Zuozhicai, and they are really fierce opponents! Thinking that they would lay out according to Fang Yuan's own ideas, it was a fool's dream!

Fang Yuan sighed deeply, sneered and said, "Li Gongzi is indeed a dragon and phoenix among people, but Li Gongzi seems to have forgotten a little, even if I don't sneak attack Yichang and Yiling, I will start a war with real swords and guns." When King Chuang returns, at least half of the four prefectures of Henan and the sixteen prefectures of Huguang will also fall under the control of our army. ”

Li Yan was slightly stunned, Fang Yuan's estimate was not wrong, it was the same as his previous estimate, with the combat power of the Xuanjia Army, the thunder attacked Huguang and Henan with one blow, and when King Chuang returned to help, at least half of the state capital would be lost.

The two are heroes who see things the same way, Li Yan asked rhetorically, "And then?" King Chuang's army returned to help, and the two sides continued to stalemate in Huguang, so did the regent withdraw or not? ”

Fang Yuan said in a cold voice, "How long can Chuang Wang be in a stalemate with our army in half of the vast land?" ”

Li Yan laughed and said, "It should be said that the imperial court is eyeing the north, and how long can the regent be in a stalemate with King Chuang in Huguang." If King Chuang can't reach it, he can also find Zhang Xianzhong to move the rescuers. Take a step back, even if King Chuang's army is wiped out, King Chuang was beaten by the court with only eighteen horsemen, isn't it also self-made? Henan, Huguang, and Shaanxi are full of displaced people, at least as many as millions, and it is easy for King Chuang to pull out an army of 200,000. ”

"Regent, the barefoot king is not afraid of wearing shoes, and if he loses, it's a big deal to start all over again; The regent bets on his net worth, can he afford to lose?! ”

Fang Yuan had to admit that Li Yan was overlooked, and he had a unique vision, and he took a fancy to Fang Yuan's weakness at a glance.

Destruction is far easier than construction, Li Zicheng is the destroyer of the order, while Fang Yuan is the builder of the order.

Fang Yuan is like a wealthy businessman with a solid family, Li Zicheng is just a gambler covered in thorns, the two meet, Li Zicheng loses a big deal and comes to gamble again, but Fang Yuan can't afford to lose.

Li Yan saw that Fang Yuan seemed to be moved, and continued to persuade, "The purpose of King Chuang's life is just to return to his hometown. And the capital court is going to cut off the regent's roots. If the regent can go north to the side of the Qing monarch and re-establish the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty, King Chuang will naturally surrender. Which is more important, the regent should know which is more important. ”

Li Zichengba looked at Fang Yuan's Northern Expedition, and the disaster led north. And the capital looked at Fang Yuan's westward expedition, and the disaster led westward. Of course, Fang Yuan would not rely on Li Yan's words to shake his determination to attack Huguang and Henan. But what Li Yan said did give Fang Yuan a fierce blow, this time the western expedition was by no means as easy as he imagined.

Fang Yuan squinted at Li Yan, after this exchange, he was even more sure that Li Yan must not let the tiger return to the mountain again, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

Fang Yuan shouted and said, "Someone! Li Gongzi is detained, and after I go to Huguang and Henan, I will be punished! ”

Li Yan looked at Fang Yuan in a daze, his lips squirmed and he wanted to say something, but he still swallowed the words back, and did not resist, let Jinyiwei arrest him and take him down.
