"Report! Liu Yu has bid farewell to the emperor of the Jin Dynasty and is sending troops to the south, and it is expected that the troops will come to Wuxing within four or five days. ”

When the military news of Liu Yudu's governor Sanwu Zhu reached Huiji, the Heavenly Master Dao was still immersed in the joy of founding the country.

When Sun Tai heard this, he immediately jumped up in shock, and his originally ruddy face turned purple, and he was completely out of shape.

His face changed drastically, and he asked urgently, "Is this true?" How is Liu Yu's troops? ”

"It has been observed that there are thousands of cavalry alone, and if you add foot soldiers, the strength should be at least about 20,000."

"Shhhh Only 20,000?! No worries. ”

Sun En said unashamedly: "Uncle Don't go out, my nephew is willing to capture Liu Yu and sacrifice it in front of the seat." ”

"Humph! What's the nonsense?! Sun Tai scolded.

"Liu Yu is brave and good at fighting, and he is by no means comparable to Liu Gao, who has nothing to show for himself."

"Think about how much effort it took to besiege and kill Liu Gaozhi at the beginning, let alone Liu Yu, who is even better than him?"

Although it was expected that the imperial court would not give up, it would definitely send troops to attack again.

But when he heard the news of Liu Yu's southward departure, Sun Tai suddenly felt a pressure like a mountain rushing over his face.

He forcibly settled down, glanced at everyone, and said in a solemn tone: "From now on, all the Heavenly Master Sect members will evacuate Wuxing. ”

"What? Give up Wu Xing again? ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they didn't understand why Sun Tai retreated without a fight.

Sun Tai's eyes swept over Sun En, Lu Xun, and Xu Daofu one by one, regardless of everyone's opposition, and insisted on his own opinion.

"Poor Dao understands your feelings very well, but from the overall situation, we must give up northern Zhejiang."

"Why?"

"Because we can't keep Wuxing, if we are greedy for the prosperity of Wuxing, it is likely to repeat the same mistake again."

"The cavalry of Beifu is sharp, and the growth of our army lies in water warfare."

"Only by withdrawing to southern Zhejiang, giving full play to the strength of the naval division, and relying on natural hazards such as Zhejiang and the sea, can we block the Beifu soldiers."

"What about after the withdrawal? You can't keep shrinking, right? Sun En said with an ugly face.

Sun Tai pondered for a moment, but he didn't have any good ideas, so he looked at Xu Daofu, who was the most capable of military affairs.

"I don't know what you think?"

"Liu Yu's soldiers are strong and strong, and it is difficult for me to confront them head-on, so I can only avoid his edge for the time being."

Xu Daofu thought about it for a while, and said: "But passively defending is not a long-term strategy, if you want to break the enemy, you have to take a risk." ”

"Will the plan be released?"

"One is to stick to the front line of Zhejiang, force the enemy to fight a decisive battle with our sea, and give full play to the strengths of our army's naval division."

"Second, since it is no longer possible to go north, our sect should also go south as soon as possible to open up the situation."

"To the south? Do you want to deal with Guangzhou and Erzhou? Sun Tai said thoughtfully.

"That's right! At that time, the Heavenly Master was unfortunately exiled to Guangzhou, and he once preached in the local area, and he still has a prestige. ”

"Why don't you send a partial division south to attack Jiaoguang Erzhou."

"It not only expands the territory of the Immortal Kingdom, but also seeks a way out for the future."

"In case things don't go wrong, we can retreat to Lingnan to defend it, so that we can make a comeback in the future."

"Third, in addition to military arrangements, the Heavenly Master can also send people to Jiankang and Jiangling to spread rumors."

"If Sima Daozi can be suspicious of Liu Yu, maybe he can surrender without a fight."

"Hahaha, the Dao is really powerful, it's really to the point."

……

At the beginning, after Liu Yu received the holy decree, he led his army all the way south.

He first went to Jiankang to meet the Son of Heaven, and then went to Jingkou with his whole army.

At that time, due to the death of Liu Gaozhi, the 30,000 Beifu soldiers were annihilated, and Jingkou was already in chaos.

The subordinates of the old generals of Beifu were in a panic all day long, feeling that the sky was about to fall.

As soon as Liu Yu arrived in Jingkou, he publicly mourned for Liu Gaozhi, Sun Wuzhong and other old generals in Beifu, and wrote to the imperial court to fight for compensation and praise for the fallen generals.

With this righteous act alone, Liu Yu was able to collect the hearts of tens of thousands of Beifu military dependents.

When Liu Jingxuan, He Wuji and others fled back to Beijing, they thanked Liu Yu for their kindness, and expressed their willingness to obey him as the new commander of Beifu.

So with the full support of Liu Jingxuan, Gao Yazhi, He Wuji and other surviving generals, Liu Yu easily subdued the old army in Beifu.

After settling the internal strife, Liu Yu led the army south to quell the rebellion.

Liu Yu is not Liu Gaozhi, his army is very strict, and the army has not committed any crimes all the way.

During the march, Liu Yu received a secret report from the scouts that the rebels had retreated to Huiji again, which made him feel quite troubled.

It's not that Liu Yu is boasting, if the rebels continue to entrench in Wuxing, he is confident that he will defeat the other party in one battle.

But now that the other party is retreating, it is tantamount to disrupting his pre-arrangement, so Liu Yu has to convene the generals to discuss countermeasures.

After a while, Suo Chengming, Liu Huaisu, Liu Zhong, Zhao Lunzhi, Liu Jingxuan, He Wuji and others entered the big tent one after another.

Everyone's eyes focused on Liu Yu, only to see that he had a tiger's back and wide ears, and a pair of bright eyes contained wisdom and arrogance.

It has a very unique and distinctive face, and whoever sees it will be impressed.

The generals knew very well that the main general Liu Yu summoned everyone to the big tent in a hurry late at night, and there must be 100,000 urgent things.

After everyone came in, they consciously lined up on both sides, and they didn't talk to each other, waiting for Liu Yu's orders.

Sure enough, Liu Yu didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "I just received a secret report, and now the rebels are retreating to Huiji. ”

When Liu Jingxuan, He Wuji and the others heard this, their faces changed greatly, and they all remembered the fiasco of Huiji.

Seeing this, Liu Yu's heart moved, and he looked at the few of them and asked, "Could it be that this is a rebel trick?" ”

"The general is aware and lives up to his name." Liu Jingxuan and others will admire Liu Yu's keen judgment very much.

"When my father led the army south to quell the rebellion, it was because of the enemy's plan to lure the enemy into the depths that he was unfortunately defeated and died."

"Now that the enemy army retreats without a fight, it must be because they know that the Beifu army is brave and brave, and they dare not meet it head-on, so they retreat and defend it with danger."

"There are two major natural hazards in the north of Huiji, the sea and Zhejiang, and without the help of the sailors, it may not be the best policy to venture south."

"Is the Heavenly Master Dao Water Master strong?" Liu Yu felt that Liu Jingxuan had something to say, and frowned slightly.

"Very strong!" Liu Jingxuan focused on his head.

"Huh?!" Liu Yu opened his mouth in shock, and couldn't close it for a long time.

If what Liu Jingxuan said is true, then the original counterinsurgency plan will probably be nullified.

He didn't expect that the Heavenly Master Dao would have a powerful water master, he just thought it was an ordinary traitor sect.

If he hadn't been reminded by Liu Jingxuan, if he really wanted to blindly go south to fight a decisive battle with the enemy, he would probably repeat the mistakes of Liu Gao.

However, in addition to being shocked, Liu Yu was secretly glad for himself.

Fortunately, with the help of Liu Jingxuan and others, he was able to avoid the danger of annihilation.

"Thanks to the reminder of the virtuous brother, otherwise I am afraid that I will suffer a big loss for my brother."

"Alas, my father ignored the strength of the traitor sailor, and as a result, he fell for the rebels' tricks and was finally defeated and died."

Liu Jingxuan's reminder made Liu Yu fall into deep thought, and the tall figure walked back and forth in the big tent.

Suddenly, he stopped, turned around and asked Suo Chengming: "Chengming, where is the sailor of the court today?" Can you be transferred to help in the war? ”

Suo Chengming pinched his chin and said: "Back to the marshal, the imperial court sailor is now under the command of Sima Shangzhi, the assassin of Yuzhou, I'm afraid the imperial court will not transfer him to help in the war." ”

Although Suo Chengming did not explain the reason, Liu Yu was not a fool, and he thought about it after a while.

The imperial court sailors wanted to use it to guard against Jingzhou, and it was impossible for them to go south to quell the rebellion.

He forcibly suppressed his inner dissatisfaction, looked around at everyone and asked, "Without a water master, how should this battle be fought?" ”

When everyone fell into deep thought, they saw that Liu Jingxuan wanted to speak and stopped: "Dashuai, in fact, there is still a water division in Wu County, but it is ......."

"Wu County has a water master? But what? Liu Yu said with a shock.

"Wu Jun's sailor does not belong to the imperial court, whether he can invite him to help in the war depends on whether the face of the marshal is big enough."

What do you mean by that? Why can't you understand? Liu Yu frowned.

"The water division of Wu County, to be exact, should be called the Hexi Water Division, and it is under the command of Liu Muzhi, the right Sima of Hexi."

"How could the Hexi Water Master be in Jiangdong?"

Liu Yu, Suo Chengming and others were full of questions, everyone had always been in the north, and they really didn't know the situation of Hexi in Wu County.

Liu Jingxuan shrugged and replied: "It's not clear how to do it. ”

"However, Liu Muzhi has a close relationship with Yuan Shansong, the Taishou of Wu County, and also helped Yuan Taishou repel the rebels into the Kou."

"Anyway, this is the only chance to break the enemy right now, so you have to try it anyway." Liu Yu groaned.

"I once had a relationship with Mr. Liu, and I thought that the other party would give some face."
