——

In the tent, Yao You and other generals were exhausted after guarding Jiangdong for a long time, but when this military report came, suddenly, all the generals swept away the gloom in front of their foreheads, and the eyes of the generals flashed like lightning.

Yao You, who had followed Bai Qi to fight in all directions early, was deeply respected by Wu Anjun, and even handed over the Jiangdong Naval Division to him to take care of, Yao You came out and asked: "Yu Wu Anjun, as far as I know, the Song State is in the Eastern Expedition to the Qi State, why did it suddenly go south to attack Chu?" ””

His question is also what the generals here want to say.

Bai Qi analyzed for a moment, pondered silently, and muttered to himself: "Since the war with the Chu State, we have held Jiangdong and not come out, making it difficult for the Central Plains to enter Jiangdong. Everyone looked at each other, and Bai Qi's heart moved, and he continued: "Maybe it is caused by the king's maneuvering in secret." ”

Although it is speculation, but Bai Qi is really right, Wei Zheng led the Sanjin coalition army to sit in Dengcheng and strategized to create such a situation, although the army under the account could not move, it was indeed sent Jingxuan into the Song Dynasty to find the Song State as a gunman.

Who is Wu Anjun? How could such a godsend not see the perfect moment to fight back? If you don't grasp it, it must be fleeting, and the current battle situation has changed dramatically because of the sudden movement of troops by the Song State to the south, and the nearly year of stubbornly defending Jiangdong has not been carried out, and the officers and men of the three armies have already been aggrieved for a year, and this is the perfect opportunity to take the initiative.

Looking up at Yao You and other generals, everyone also cast their eyes, Bai Qi was also clear about what they were thinking at the moment, but he hesitated, he received Wei Zheng's secret order to guard Jiangdong and not out, if he took the initiative to attack, it would be against the king's order, although the general will not be subject to the king's order outside, but Bai Qi has become the biggest constraint on his hesitation precisely because of his conscientious character.

As Bai Qi's confidant general, Yao You guessed his contradictory thoughts, and in a moment, he came out of the queue and gave his hand: "General, such a good opportunity must not be missed!" ”

"Yes, General! The officers and men of our three armies have been suppressed for a year, and they have long been eager to go out of the city and fight happily. ”

"General......

For a time, the generals asked for orders to take the initiative to attack, although the current Jiangdong battleable soldiers are less than 100,000, but only 80,000, and they are not afraid to enemy 300,000 Chu troops, Yao You saw that Bai Qi was still silent, so he said again: "The general's concern is that the king ordered our army to defend Jiangdong and not come out?" ”

"The order of the monarch must not be violated." Bai Qi muttered back. When a general heard this, he was also anxious, and immediately came out and said: "As the saying goes, the general will not accept the orders of the king outside, and the last general thinks that as long as the Chu army is defeated, the king will not be guilty." ”

"A county in Jiangdong is the cornerstone of my defense of the country, Bai Qi won the trust of the king, so I entrusted this important task to me, when Chao Ge left the palace and the king conspired a scene is still vivid, Bai Qi is afraid of disappointing the king, and the slightest carelessness is the death of ten thousand people is to blame." Wu Anjun muttered, obviously having great doubts in his heart, in addition, since the monarch had secretly ordered to defend Jiangdong, he also knew that Wei Zheng led the Central Plains Wei King's division to capture Nanyang County, an important place in the north of Chu State.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi said again: "It's been a year, and the main force of the Chu army has not withdrawn for a long time, could it be that the king's capture of Nanyang has been blocked?" Unable to threaten Yan Ying, the main force of the Chu army is bound to win Jiangdong? ”

Bai Qi painted a prison to defend Jiangdong, isolated, and rarely heard from the outside world, although he has spared no effort to send a large number of scouts to try to obtain information from the outside world, but to little avail.

"I don't know if the king has captured Nanyang......" Bai Qi said secretly in his heart.

"Newspaper—"

At this time, the scout rushed into the tent, this scout was covered in blood, and there were sword wounds on his body, and his pupils shrank when he saw it, not only because the scout was seriously injured, but also because the clothes worn by the scout were different, which was the elite of the Central Plains Patriotic Elite and the unique military uniform of the soldiers of the fighter battalion.

Bai Qi's heart shook slightly, and he was immediately ushered in, and when the scout saw Bai Qi coming, he immediately tried to bow but was quickly stopped by Bai Qi.

“…… Report to...... Wu Anjun, humiliated and risked death to cross the Chu realm to serve the king's order to send a message to Wu Anjun. The scout said with difficulty, Bai Qi's heart was greatly lifted, and finally there was news of the king, and all the generals in the tent were silent, only to hear the scout say: "...... The teacher of my king has ...... Break Nanyang County and go directly to Dengcheng...... Yan Ying......"

As soon as these words came out, all the generals were excited, and they almost couldn't hold back and shouted, Bai Qi didn't say a word, but his heart was also in high spirits, and the scout said: "The king of Chu is afraid that our army will break through Yingdu, so ...... Therefore, the king moved south to the capital...... Changsha ......"

Moving the capital to Changsha? Bai Qi suddenly understood, he had just heard that Wei Zheng's army had suppressed Dengcheng, and the royal city of Yingdu was in danger, and he wondered why the main force of the Chu army of Lao Zhaoyang did not retreat to aid Yingdu, and now that he learned that the king of Chu had moved south to Changsha, then all the doubts were clear.

"The king sits in Deng Cheng Jicheng and looks at Yan Ying to wait for work, and the left prime minister Jing Xuan enters the Song Dynasty to persuade the Song King to raise troops to the south......" The scout said here, and the generals were even more excited, no wonder why the Song State, which was in the crusade against the Qi State, suddenly went south to fight Chu, it turned out that the king was strategizing from it, although he could not raise troops in person, but he was also looking for help, and now all the doubts are clear.

At this time, the scout took a sip and continued: "Humble duty is ordered by the king to edict and Wu Anjun......"

"What edict?" Bai Qi hurriedly asked.

“…… Plot to win the day, the offensive and defensive momentum of the Jiangdong battlefield depends on Wu Anjun's on-the-spot response, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies are all dispatched by Wu Anjun, and the violators will be beheaded! Wu Anjun dispatched troops, no need to ask for orders, just do it at your discretion. ”

Bai Qi nodded silently, and then got up: "Come on, help me down and take care of my life." ”

Before returning to the main seat, Bai Qi did not sit down, and suddenly, he saw him turn around, and then looked at Yao You and other generals, all of them did not say a word, but they all looked at them with excitement and expectation, and they were all waiting for dispatch.

After thinking about it, Bai Qi no longer had any doubts, and no longer hesitated: "The people will listen to the order——! ”

"Wu Anjun!" Yao You and the others responded in unison.

"At sunset, pour the power of Jiangdong to gather the three armies, and let all the soldiers prepare enough military rations for the three days to assemble Zhenze Water Village......"

……

At night, all the armies guarding Jiangdong gathered from Zhenze Lake from all directions, and the troops guarding the south bank of the river who guarded the South Great Wall gathered in Zhenze Lake.

Exhausted the existing limit of Jiangdong, Bai Qi gathered all the troops in his hands only 70,000 scale, and the annual garrison has lost more than half of the original nearly 150,000 troops, which shows how tragic the garrison war in this year is, and for the Chu army, the capture of Jiangdong has become a battle of national fortune, how crazy it is.

On the surface of Zhenze Lake, the scene of thousands of warships arraying on the lake is particularly shocking, Bai Qi took Yao You and several other henchmen to ride horses, and entered the Shuizhai Shipyard to take a look at the sailor warships to check.
