Murong He returned to Yecheng again with the remnants of the defeated army.

Looking at Murong He, who was returning in embarrassment, Shusun Jian said with a shocked face: "King Luyang, you ...... What's wrong with you? ”

"Hey, don't mention it!" Murong He said dejectedly.

"That captain of Hexi has a tendon in his head, no matter what three, seven or twenty-one, he will attack more than once he comes up."

"That'...... Then Hexi won't find anything, right? Uncle Sun Jian said worriedly.

"Don't worry."

"Before leaving, in order to convince Hexi that I was stranded in Handan really to rush supplies, the widow specially left a lot of materials in the city."

As soon as he thought of the mountains of materials, Murong He's flesh ached.

But in order to complete the task assigned by Murong De, he had to give up.

"That's good, that's good." Uncle Sun Jian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes...... But if Handan is occupied by Hexi, the Wei army in the north will not be able to go south to participate in the war? Will this affect the rest of the war? ”

"Huh~ It's impactful, but it's not a big deal, they were originally a restraining force, and they will only go south to join the war when there is a crisis in Yecheng."

……

Due to the three changes in the situation in Yecheng, Wang Zhenyi arrived in Bingzhou and quickly set up a base camp in the city of the eldest son.

The 60,000 Hexi troops were stationed in Fukou and Baicheng, and in case of an emergency, they could quickly cross the Taihang Mountain.

On this day, Wang Zhenwei stood idly at the head of the city, staring at the straight road outside the city, stretching to the mouth of the mouth several miles away.

Suddenly, he rode straight and quickly approached the eldest son.

The comers dismounted at the city gate, carried an urgent report, and trotted all the way up the city wall.

"Zuo Sima, Fukou Pass is urgent."

"Fukou Pass?"

Wang Zhen's evil face tightened, and he hurriedly took the urgent report, and casually ordered the guards, "Inform the generals to come to discuss the matter." ”

After a while, the temporary meeting hall was crowded with people, and Tan Daoji, Wang Zhongde, Xue Wei and others would be lined up on both sides.

The lord sat on the main seat in the center, and when everyone arrived, he picked up the urgent report.

"According to Captain Mao's report, Xiangguo City fell a few days ago, one day earlier than the agreed time."

"In order to prevent further accidents, Captain Mao has marched to Handan in advance."

At this time, Xue Tong, who was sitting on the side, frowned and said, "Could it be that Wei Guo also learned the news of the time when Yan Guo went south, so he raised troops to the south on a large scale?" ”

"It's not that simple." Tan Daoji pinched his chin and said thoughtfully.

"Everyone, please think about it, the timing of going south is a top secret, and only Murong De himself and a few of his henchmen know."

"If it wasn't for Yan Guo's intention to leak it, how would Wei Guo know?"

"What good does Murong De do for revealing the plan to the south to the Wei State? Wasn't he worried that the Wei army would take advantage of the situation to move south? ”

Tan Daoji snorted coldly and said, "Hehe! What if Murong De secretly reached an agreement with Wei? ”

"What?!"

Only then did everyone suddenly realize: "Could it be that Murong De wants to sell two goods?" ”

"Nine times out of ten!"

"Murong De clearly expressed his willingness to hand over Yecheng to my Hexi, but in fact, I am afraid that he secretly promised Yecheng to Tuobaju."

"Why did Murong De do this? Isn't he afraid that I will take revenge afterwards? ”

"Revenge? How to retaliate? ”

Tan Daoji spread his hands and said: "When the battle for Yecheng ends, Murong De has already gone to Qidi to claim the king. ”

"At that time, the Southern Dynasty is busy quelling the civil strife, and Hexi is beyond the reach of the whip, how can he take revenge on others?"

"And in view of the fait accompli, and out of the need to contain the Wei State, we have no choice but to swallow this bitter fruit."

"His grandmother's, I didn't expect that the old boy Murong De was very insidious!"

"Humph! Dadu Hu is right, it is best to treat Hu Lu with only one stick, otherwise there will be endless disasters. ”

"Ahem! Everyone, be quiet. ”

Wang Zhenwei stopped everyone's discussion and said lightly: "Regarding Wei Yan's collusion, most of the guards have expected it. ”

"It's just that there was no definite evidence before, and although it is not very certain at the moment, Wei Yan must have colluded together, but at least he is seven or eight points sure."

"So I want to remind everyone that this time our enemy will be the powerful Wei State."

"And because of Yan Guo's secret help, the Wei army must have taken the lead in this battle for Yecheng."

"Zuo Sima means that Yecheng is likely to have fallen into the hands of the Wei army?"

"Not a possibility, but a certainty." Saying that, Wang Zhenwei took out another secret letter and motioned for everyone to circulate it.

"According to the scout's secret report, more than 10,000 troops have suddenly been stationed in Yecheng recently."

"Although they were wearing Yan army uniforms, Wei and Yan obviously forgot that the Tuoba people had the habit of braiding their hair, which was completely different from Murong Xianbei."

"And it was from these details that our scouts discovered that the defenders of Yecheng had been quietly replaced by the Wei army."

As soon as Wang Zhen's evil words fell, they immediately attracted a chorus of condemnation from everyone, all of whom directly accused Murong Xianbei of not keeping his promises.

When everyone's emotions calmed down, a question invariably appeared in their minds, that is, what should Hexi do?

Originally, everyone thought that with Nanyan's cooperation, it would not be a problem to receive Yecheng.

But now he suddenly found that his allies were unreliable, and the situation suddenly became bad.

"It's come to this, and it's useless to complain."

"Actually, I don't need to say anything, everyone should know very well that the situation is very unfavorable for Hexi."

"But Dadu Hu has made it clear that no matter how difficult it is, Hexi must take Yecheng."

"Please use your brains and think of any clever solutions to the dilemma at hand."

Just as the others fell silent, they saw Tan Daoji frowning and said, "Have you thought of it, why were only the Yecheng defenders secretly replaced by the Wei army?" ”

"If Xiangguo, Handan, and others also adopt this method, won't Wei State be able to take most of the cities with their hands?"

"It can be seen that the purpose of Wei and Yan's collusion is definitely not for a few cities."

"Dao Ji means that the Wei army wants to gather and annihilate our Hexi army under Yecheng?"

"Maybe I'm thinking too much, but I have a gut feeling that the goal of the Wei army is to defeat our army head-on."

Xue Wei frowned and asked, "What is his purpose in doing this?" Isn't that a bit more dangerous? ”

Wang Zhenxi, who was sitting at the top, couldn't help but feel very relieved when he saw the generals talking about it.

Especially Tan Daoji, who is worthy of being paid special attention to young generals by the majority of the protectors, and his performance is even more unexpected.

He pondered for a while, then took over the conversation and said, "I have the same opinion as Dao Ji, and I think that the purpose of the Wei army must be to gather and annihilate our army. ”

"As for the reason...... To put it bluntly, this is a big battle that concerns the morale of the people. ”

"Do you remember the proverb that spread some time ago?"

"Remember, isn't it Hu Wu's 100-year-old luck?!"

"That's right! This proverb brought great trouble to Wei's entry into the Central Plains, and the Wei king Tuoba Jue always wanted to get rid of the influence of the proverb. ”

"Only by defeating the Hexi army head-on and breaking the reputation of Dadu Protector of a hundred battles and victories, the King of Wei can confidently declare that he is the destiny of heaven."

"Humph! Pipe dream. The crowd pouted disdainfully.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Wang Zhen's evil mouth and said: "If the Tuoba people want to enter the Central Plains, they need to ask me first if Hexi agrees." ”

"Doesn't Tuoba want to fight us head-on? Then we will grant his wish. ”

"Zuo Sima wants to do the trick?"

"Yes!"

Wang Zhenwei immediately got up, picked up the bamboo pole and came to the map, pointing to the two main roads of Fukou and Baicheng.

"From the east of Shangdang out of Fukou, and then more than 60 miles to the southeast is Yecheng."

"And the south out of Baicheng, through the Yangjiban, and then a few miles to the east is Wei County Lin Shu County."

"I intend to divide the army into two, and the main force of its first army will plan to go east with great fanfare, so as to lure the enemy army into being deceived."

"The main force of the second cavalry went south to Baicheng in concealment, and after leaving Taihang, they outflanked Yecheng in a roundabout way, and cooperated with the infantry to eliminate the Wei army."

"The key to this battle is that the cavalry should outflank at the right time, neither too early nor too late."

"It will alarm the enemy too early, and it will not achieve the goal of completely destroying the enemy."

"Too late will put the pawn in danger and fall into the other party's calculations."

"It is very important to be careful, and a little carelessness will make all plans in Hexi go down the drain."

"In addition, we should also send someone to inform Handan Mao Dezu that before the battle of Yecheng is decided, not a single soldier of the Wei army in the north should be allowed to go south."

After talking about the general strategy, Wang Zhenwei set his sights on Tan Daoji.

Among the generals on the scene, only the resourceful Tan Daoji can be qualified for the roundabout task.

"Tan Dao Ji!"

"The end will be." Tan Daoji quickly got up.

"Ben will order you to be the commander of the southward division, and you will immediately set off with 30,000 iron horsemen."

"No."

"Dry Ali, bald sandal!"

"The last general!"

"You two are the deputy generals of Daoji, so you must rush to Yecheng within the specified time."

"If there is a delay in the warplane, it will be done in accordance with military law."

"No!"
