Chapter 215: (Strength in Many)

Liu Xuan surrendered Wang Yan this time, and also helped Shangguan Yin Feng a lot from the side, because Wentai had become an army in Jingcheng Pass, so that Shangguan Yin Feng had to leave Chen Cheng's army outside Zhuangzhou to defend Wentai, and this time Wentai withdrew his troops, Chen Cheng's troops could join Shangguan Yin Feng's southward march, and then increase Shangguan Yin Feng's strength.

In order to prevent attack, Shangguan Yin Feng has withdrawn the army to the territory of Hebei, although Linxi is close to the Shandong border, but Linxi is not far from Julu and Pingxiang, and there are many cities behind him to advance and retreat, even the Han army led by Gai Yan does not dare to easily cross the territory of Liaocheng County, so it is purely not to take Cheng Gongwu in his eyes.

On the contrary, Gai Yan led his troops to stop advancing fifty miles outside Liaocheng, and sent a small team of cavalry to Liaocheng to investigate and harass them, intending to test the reality of Liaocheng's city defense, although Shangguan Yin Feng was not in Liaocheng, but the defender of the city was Yuan Liang, a famous general of Hebei, which should not be underestimated.

December 11, Chengqing's department through Xia Jin to capture Qinghe County, Chengtai army immediately arrived, the two armies combined to go north to Jizhou, Cheng Qingzhi's move directly out of Shangguan Yin Feng's expectations, originally Shangguan Yin Feng thought that Cheng Qingzhi would lead his troops south directly to the west of Linxi where he was stationed after capturing Qinghe, but after arranging everything, the front Jinyi guard spies came to report, Cheng Qingzhi led his troops to Jizhou City, and now the defenders in Jizhou City are less than 5,000, if Cheng Qingzhi leads his troops to attack, Jizhou City is a big fat meat, Once Jizhou was lost, the Qi army was like a sharp sword to split Hebei from the side, cutting Hebei off from the south of the river, making Cangzhou the palm of the Qi army.

Linxi County, county government hall

'Bang', Shangguan Yin Feng kicked the case in front of him directly, and the melon and fruit wine on it spilled on the ground, looked at the generals on both sides of the hall angrily, and then turned to look at the map of the world territory behind him: "Okay, you Cheng Qingzhi..."

"Lord Wang..." Li Yanqing took the lead in standing out of the queue and said to Shangguan Yin Feng, who had his back to him: "The last general thinks that our army is too passive now, and blindly defending will only make our army more passive. ”

Since his debut, Shangguan Yin Feng has not failed in anyone's hands except for defeat in the hands of Li Yanqing, because he deeply understands the pain of failure, and the previous loss also made him too atmospheric, and now he is carefully looking at the map of the world's territory, plus there is a group of brave and resourceful generals behind him, and his cautious attitude has been found back by himself: "Qian Menglong, tell me, if you are Cheng Qingzhi, how will you act after taking Jizhou?" ”

This is also Shangguan Yin Feng's usual practice, discuss with the generals, he also learned this in school, and the instructors of the military academy often ask them some of the same questions, if they will do it, it is under such a discussion that they can completely familiarize themselves with the opponent's routines, and the same is true for dealing with Li Yanqing before, of course, this is also Shangguan Yin Feng's own creation, because there is no staff department in this era, after Shangguan Yin Feng decided to settle down, he set up a special staff department to train some staff officers, Giving advice to these generals is a hundred times stronger than those scholars who are proud of their talents, but not everyone is Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

Qian Menglong was also aggrieved, he suffered so many defeats at one time, which made him very unhappy, when Shangguan Yin Feng asked him, he also calmed down, thought about it carefully, and then replied: "If the end will be Cheng Qingzhi, after taking Jizhou, he will go north to the river, cut off the grain route of Cangzhou, and then turn around and attack Cangzhou, trying to take the entire eastern Hebei region." ”

Shangguan Yin Feng heard Qian Menglong say this, so he stretched out his hand and looked carefully back and forth on the map, turned his head to look at Li Yanqing and said, "Wen Ruo, if it were you, how would you arrange it." ”

Li Yanqing frowned and stepped forward, looked at the territory map carefully, then walked to the hall, pondered for a while, and when all the generals cast their eyes, he raised his head and said: "Lord Wang, what the last general thinks is the same as what General Qian said, but if it is the last general, he will send troops to attack Bazhou, block the army of General Jia Fu in Beiping, and then cut off the grain route in Cangzhou, and divide a part of the troops, sneak attack Julu, if he succeeds, then turn his head and sweep all the cities behind him, wait for the arrival of the army, and fight with the opponent to the death." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals in the hall began to whisper, Huang Wei also frowned and looked at Li Yanqing, he secretly sighed in his heart Fortunately, this Li Yanqing is his own person, if he is replaced by the generals of other princes, I am afraid it will be a nightmare existence: "The prince is really a god." ”

Shangguan Yin Feng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then laughed loudly: "Wen Ruo, it's a pity if you are not a commander..." ”

Li Yanqing immediately smiled and expressed his humility to Shangguan Yin Feng, since he came to Shangguan Yin Feng's account, because he knew the reasons of the Nanyang faction and the Hebei faction, he himself was even more cautious under Shangguan Yin Feng's account, and he didn't dare to show off at will, after all, he himself had defeated Shangguan Yin Feng, although Shangguan Yin Feng said that he didn't care, but God knows what kind of moth this uncertain prince will have.

"The biggest problem now is the food problem, Hebei is now snowing heavily, the roads are frozen, and most of our army are southern soldiers, not used to the northern world, frostbite and freezing nearly three or four thousand people, like this, it is impossible to fight with the enemy, but the enemy is very fierce, this king guesses that Cheng Qingzhi must also know this, so he will be so unscrupulous to attack the city everywhere, this person must not be underestimated." Shangguan Yin Feng knows very well how much food he still has in his hands, although he has captured the whole of Hebei, but the people in the surrounding areas of Beiping have to spend the winter, and there is not much food left in their hands, and the people are the foundation of the army, so now his food in Linxi has lasted less than half a month.

Shangguan Yin Feng thought about it, so he looked at Li Yanqing and said curiously: "Wen Ruo, this king is an analogy, if you are this king, this king is Cheng Qingzhi, what will you do in this situation?" So Shangguan Yin Feng also directly clarified the food issue, which is the most critical point, and he also wanted to hear Li Yanqing's approach.

Li Yanqing frowned, and arched his hand: "The last general will exceed the rules, don't dare...", he Li Yanqing is not a fool, if he says it directly, it shows that Shangguan Yin Feng's current practice of stationing in Linxi is wrong, it is like slapping others in the face in front of a large group of people, and then you have to laugh at others.

Of course, Shangguan Yin Feng smiled, and then said that this was a constructive question, let him say it and refer to it together, and then used Qian Menglong as an analogy, Li Yanqing nodded and said: "The last general will order to shrink the troops, clear the wilderness, retreat to Handan and Zhuangzhou, give up all the counties in the east, wait for the beginning of spring, raise grain and grass, and then go to war, but since Liaocheng has been taken, it is not easy to give up, you can order a general and two armies to be stationed in Guantao County, and respond to Liaocheng, the last general believes, The army of Chengqing, which has traveled a long distance, will not attack blindly, because they will also have food problems. ”

Shangguan Yin Feng nodded, he agreed with Li Yanqing's idea, so he said: "Order, Qian Menglong led an army of 20,000 to stay in Guantao, and the fortified wall did not come out, waiting for the return of the army of the king of Kaichun, and after that, he will withdraw the camp and retreat to Handan from tomorrow." ”

"No," the generals said in unison.
