Within five days, Gao Quan sent people to search closely, almost inside and outside the southern capital, but nothing was found to be found, and finally, at dusk on the sixth day, Gao Quan ordered all the search troops to return to the city, as if giving up the search for Ye Xiong and others.

At this time, in the high-ranking mansion, the generals were puzzled, since it was so important to take a few prisoners, why didn't they search for it?

Gao Quan smiled: "You don't even understand this? ”

"The spies of the imperial capital did not send the news that the Jinyi Guard had brought those people back to the palace, that is to say, those people are still on the way, or in our southern capital, I estimate that the one in my southern capital may be relatively larger, we have searched for the past few days without results, they must have hidden in an extremely secret place, even if we continue to search, it will be useless."

"Okay now, as soon as our people withdraw, they will definitely think that the enemy has stopped searching and can return to the imperial capital, and then..."

"And then they'll jump out?"

A general suddenly reacted and said with great joy.

Gao Quan smiled: "Exactly." ”

"From now on, you have to secretly monitor the southern capital for me, and if you find these people, you will arrest them all."

"No."

After a pause, Gao Quan said: "In addition... It's been nearly ten days, and it's time for us to take a stand on the front. ”

"What does the prime minister mean... Dispatch troops? ”

Gao Quan said: "Of course I want to go out, I will enter the palace tomorrow to report to Your Majesty, please lead the army to the battle, this time we must recapture Qingyuan County!" ”

"Qingyuan County? How is Qingyuan County? Shouldn't we attack Kure? ”

Someone asked.

In the lobby, the other generals were also puzzled.

A long time ago, I heard Gao Quan say that if the next time he sent troops, he must seize Wu County, because Wu County is linked to the Yangtze River, and Wu County can be directly controlled in his hands, and the main road to the eastern capital can be opened. In this way, whether it is to support each other or send troops to attack, it will be beneficial and harmless. But now, the decision of the high authorities is incomprehensible.

Gao Quan took a deep breath, he felt that these generals were all elm heads, and they didn't know what it meant to see the situation clearly.

Gao Quan came to the map and said, "Take a good look. The distribution of troops in the imperial capital, in addition to the 500,000 troops who went out, there are about 300,000 regular troops in the surrounding areas of the imperial capital, if we attack Wu County, these more than 300,000 people can be reinforced at any time, and furthermore, in the royal city of Wu County, there are also more than 200,000 elites, which were left after Wenqing Lao'er captured Wu County last time, and then there was no need to withdraw to the imperial capital. It seems that it was intended to be used to defend our army. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Quan pointed his finger to the southwest of the map: "If we attack Qingyuan County, it will be nine out of ten, from Nanjun to Qingyuan, at most ten days of marching, ten days later, we can resist Qingyuan County, and in Qingyuan, there are only 100,000 garrisons under Zheng Feng, 100,000 only." If we get it right, we can end the battle in half a month. ”

"Even if the Guxi defenders closest to Qingyuan County want to come for reinforcements, it will take half a month, but at that time. Most of us have already taken Qingyuan County, even if we don't take it, it doesn't matter, the garrison general of Guxi County is named Li Zhi, and there are only 100,000 people under this person, how many people can come? Even if they all come, they are not afraid. We can set up defenses and ambushes for him in many places and see how he responds! ”

"Hmph, originally Sun Yu was supposed to be stationed in Guxi County, but now, he has gone to Beijun, this is really great news, Benxiang is confident that he will definitely be able to take Qingyuan."

After listening to Gao Quan's analysis, all the generals laughed, so that in the near future, Hu Guo will have one more county.

"Prime Minister, then what are we waiting for, hurry up and send troops."

"There's no hurry."

Gao Quan waved his hand: "I'm thinking about whether I should send a large army to make a feint attack on Wu County, so that it can attract a large number of enemy troops, as well as the eyes of everyone in the Holy Dynasty, they will look at Wu County and ignore Qingyuan County." ”

........

Ye Xiong was still hiding in that mansion at this time, in fact, this mansion had been exposed and had been searched countless times by officers and soldiers, but every time the officers and soldiers came, everyone hid in the cellar, so they were not discovered.

Hearing that Gao Quan had withdrawn his troops, Ye Xiong and the others were overjoyed, and this was the opportunity they were waiting for!

Ye Xiong didn't have time to get out of the city that night, so he hid here, anyway, he had already brought people down, so he didn't have to worry, what he was waiting for was for the enemy to relax, and Xi'an was here, and the opportunity came.

"Archon, shall we go now?"

Ye Xiong thought for a while and said, "It's better to dress up in disguise, pretend to be a drama troupe and go out of the city, and dress up all five of them as actors, so it's not easy to be discovered." ”

"Yes."

In the afternoon of the same day, there were about a dozen people in the group, all of whom headed towards the city gate, but when they walked to the city gate, Ye Xiong frowned, because the officers and soldiers were very strict, not only were there several checkpoints in the check, but also some soldiers were holding a few portraits in their hands, carefully comparing the pedestrians who came and went, if it went on like this, it would definitely be discovered.

"If you don't leave today, go back."

"Yes."

After another three days, Gao Quan finally gave up the search for Zhang Xue's family and devoted all his energy to sending troops to attack Qingyuan County.

And taking this opportunity, Ye Xiong arranged for five people to go out of the city, and finally entered the country in all dangers, entered Wu County, and finally returned to the imperial capital.

...........

Time flies, half a month later.

Gao Quan did not launch a feint attack on Wu Jun, the reason why he said that day was indeed hesitating, but after careful consideration, he still decided to attack Qingyuan directly, so as not to distract himself from it, and to startle the snake.

On this day, Gao Quan received strong support from Hu Ling, and led an army of 500,000 out of Nanjun to attack Qingyuan!

As soon as the 500,000 army left the city, several Jinyi guards spread the news to the imperial palace of the imperial capital and Zheng Feng of Qingyuan County.

When Wang Xu got the news, of course he was shocked, Gao Quan dared to directly send 500,000 troops, which is not a small courage.

Military Aircraft Division.

Murong Yuan offered a plan: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that we can still attack the east and the west, and surround Wei to save Zhao." ”

Of course, the word Wei Wei to save Zhao was said by Wang Xu before, although everyone didn't know who Wei was talking about and who Zhao was talking about, but it meant that anyway, so it was later written down by everyone.

"What do you mean... He attacked my Qingyuan County, and we attacked his southern capital? ”

Wang Xu asked.

Murong Yuan smiled: "Exactly, our Wu County has more than 200,000 troops, and we can send 150,000 troops to the southern capital immediately, and Gao Quan will lead 500,000 troops to the battle, and the southern capital must be empty.... ”

Before Murong Yuan finished speaking, Wen Qing came out to object: "No, Mr. Murong's plan seems to be very good, but it does not help the war situation, but it costs the people and money." ”

"You..."

Murong Yuan directly closed his mouth, unable to say any more.

Wang Xu looked at Wen Qing and said, "Since Lord Wen vetoed Mr. Murong's strategy, then you must have a way, let's hear it." ”

Wen Qing shook his head: "Wei Chen doesn't have a plan, he just opposes Mr. Murong's use of troops like this; It is reported that there are nearly one million troops in the southern capital, although it is a bit boastful, but there are still seven or eight hundred thousand, Gao Quan led an army of 500,000 to go out, and still left more than 200,000 garrisons, our army sent troops from Wu County, and it will take at least half a month to reach the southern capital, by that time, I am afraid that our Qingyuan County has been lost. ”

Wang Xu nodded, what Wen Qing said was very reasonable.

"It's a pity..." Wang Xu stood up and sighed: "It's a pity that Sun Yu is not in Guxi County, otherwise you can reach Qingyuan in three days and see how Gao Quan comes!" ”

It's useless to say this now, because Sun Yu is in Beijun. (To be continued.) )
