Chapter 129: The Storm Rises Again!

An important border town of the country, Pingyan City.

The next morning, before dawn, the people were still asleep, but the soldiers were already busy.

in the barracks.

Since Liu Xiu came to Wei, Wang Huaiyi, a member of the old cabinet of the Ying Pavilion, the third product of the empire, and the champion general, has been following Wan Yanshuo in accordance with Liu Xiu's deployment, in the name of "consulting the military", because of "busy military affairs", he spent almost all of his time in the Shadow Army, and the Shadow Army soldiers were together, and he was never separated from even food and accommodation.

It's just that the Shadow Army has almost always been a loner, and it is almost completely distinct from the Imperial Army in all aspects, "water and fire are incompatible".

In order to allow the two armies to integrate with each other, there is a tacit understanding when fighting, and increase the chance of victory, Wang Huaiyi has planned a lot and done a lot of things, and now the two armies have eliminated signs of estrangement, at least when they meet, the two sides are no longer vigilant against each other.

When he got up early to prepare for the martial arts competition between the soldiers of the two armies and enhance his relationship, he suddenly received an order from Liu Xiu to let him go to the meeting, seeing that the herald looked in a hurry, Wang Huaiyi didn't want to ask much, so he had to dress neatly and hurried to the Pingyan meeting hall, walked on the road, passed through the tall city gate of Pingyan, and looked at the soldiers who came and went on the city wall, he suddenly felt a little nervous inexplicably.

What will His Highness say about this meeting?

He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and scurried toward the council chamber.

The scenery on both sides receded like flying, and soon came to the front of the council chamber, and after the guards reported him, he strode into the hall, and although he was prepared, he still felt a little shocked when he entered the door.

In this hall, in addition to Liu Xiu, Wan Yanshuo and a few colleagues who have always been familiar with him, Pingyancheng can even be called a powerful general in the army even in the territory of Weiguo, and almost all of them are here.

As if because they were there, this hall made people feel heavy and oppressive.

And in the middle of the table where everyone was seated, there was a huge military sand table, on which several rows of flags were already laid at this moment.

It's like something big is about to happen.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Wang Huaiyi settled down, hurriedly stepped forward, and saluted Liu Xiu and everyone.

Liu Xiu smiled at him, nodded, and said, "There have been a lot of hardships recently. ”

Wang Huaiyi bowed down and didn't even dare to say it.

Liu Xiu smiled, pointed to the seat and motioned for him to sit down, then glanced at everyone, and when he saw that everyone had arrived, he nodded to Wan Yan Shuo and said, "Let's start." ”

There was a sudden silence in the hall, and everyone looked up at Wan Yanshuo in an instant.

Is this the gaze of the minister?

Wan Yan Shuo's expression shook in an instant, although in these eyes he saw suspicion, surprise, calmness, and profundity, but no matter what, the center of his gaze was him!

How many people don't even have the opportunity to face the eyes of these people, and how many people will not dare to open their mouths in the eyes of these people, and under the strong coercion of these people, they will not dare to speak.

He secretly took a deep breath and clenched his fists, his eyes were full of admiration and horror when he wanted these people to see him again!

He stood up and said slowly: "I think you all know that after Murong Dan succeeded to the throne as emperor, he swept away the decline of the Yan State before the defeat of Pingyan, and even in a very short period of time, with iron-blooded means and extremely strong political skills, first swept away Prime Minister Murong Chui and his party, and then flattened several powerful feudal towns in his country one by one with the technique of combining vertical and horizontal, and the Yan Kingdom, which had gathered the financial resources and troops of various feudal towns, has once again been eyeing me Pingyan, everyone, if Pingyan is not guaranteed, it will be dangerous to defend the country, and for the empire, it is also a wide open door."

After speaking, he looked at everyone, and saw that everyone's faces were as usual, as if they had already known about this situation, he nodded, took a step forward, came to the center of the table, pointed to the sand table, and the border of Yan Country was heavily calmed The location of the border city was calm, and said:

"At this time, although Murong Dan has stabilized the imperial power, after all, the time is still shallow, and it is not possible to attack me in the south, but when Murong Dan's army is in order and the army attacks me, can you be sure of victory?"

Seeing that everyone's eyes flashed, but they were all silent, Wan Yanshuo raised his voice and pulled everyone's eyes to himself, and then, pointed to the designated border city, and said:

"The heavens helped me and gave us a chance to go north and break the city and kill the enemy."

There was a pause at the end of the sentence, as if he was considering the wording, and as if he was waiting for the crowd to react.

After everyone was silent for a while, they saw Pingyan City guarding, Shen Yun stood up and asked, "Lord Wanyan's analysis is extremely correct, forgive me for being ignorant, I don't know what the 'opportunity' in the mouth of the adults means?" ”

Wan Yan Shuo nodded, looked at everyone and smiled slightly, and replied: "According to reliable sources, Murong Dan asked the Dingbian guards and the general of Zhennan Shangguan Yu to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses to quell the rebellion on the grounds of crusading against the rebellious feudal towns in China, and now there are only 150,000 defenders in Dingbian City, and they are not well prepared, which is really a good time for the Northern Expedition." ”

After hearing this, the crowd was silent for a while, and then they exchanged their heads and whispered about each other.

After a while, Wang Huaiyi stood up with a frown, his voice had always been very loud, and he did not restrain it at the moment, as soon as the words came out, he instantly attracted everyone's attention, and said: "The last general feels that Murong Dan's move is suspected of leading us to attack the city."

Before the words fell, he saw Liu Xiuyi wave his hand, interrupt his words, stood up and shook his head gently, and said: "Even if it is a trap, this is the best time to go north, once the national strength of the Yan State is completely restored, the existing advantages in our hands will be gone." ”

After speaking, he looked at everyone and said, "I know that you still have doubts, but sending troops is a decision made by this king after thinking about it for a long time, and it has been decided and cannot be changed. ”

There was silence.

Liu Xiu stood there expressionlessly, seeing that although everyone didn't speak, their expressions were different, as if they were not ready for his sudden desire to send troops, and more people were a little dazed in their eyes.

Liu Xiu's eyes flashed, and he didn't explain much, but spoke again, and said: "The geographical location of Dingbian is extremely special, especially between Pingyan and Dingbian, there are mountains to block it, with the cautious character of Guan Zhen, the defenders of Dingbian, and then set up an ambush in the mountains. ”

Wang Huaiyi is Liu Xiu's old department has been with him for many years, and he has been in Pingyan City for a long time, and everyone's eyes, intentional or unintentional, are looking at him, waiting for him to speak.

Wang Huaiyi raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, arched his hand, and said: "Your Highness, the minister still has questions, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Liu Xiu said lightly: "Say." ”

Wang Huaiyi frowned and said, "I don't know about the Northern Expedition, does the emperor in Luojing City know?" ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked, and they looked up at Liu Xiu, and even Wan Yanshuo looked surprised.

After discussing with Liu Xiu for a long time, he forgot about the emperor's attitude, or Wan Yanshuo thought of this possibility in his heart: Liu Xiu didn't want to report this matter to the emperor at all.

He raised his head and looked at Liu Xiu, only to see Liu Xiu's eyes flash, nodded, and said: "This matter has already been presented to my father, the empire has sent troops, and now it has been on standby at the border between Han and Wei, and will soon rush to Pingyan to help me." ”

The tense atmosphere eased instantly, Wang Huaiyi laughed, scratched his head, and said loudly: "Your Highness does things without leakage, and it is really a waste of worry!" ”

After speaking, he arched his hand and sat down.

Liu Xiu glanced at Wang Huaiyi, his eyes showed approval, and then he turned his head to look at everyone and said, "Since you have no doubts, Wan Yanshuo will tell you about strategic deployment." ”

After speaking, he nodded to Yan Shuo, who walked to the front of the sand table in response, pointed to the huge sand table in front of him and said:

"Like hitting the water in the middle stream, Dingbian is a roadblock that our army can't avoid, but once we break through Dingbian, we will run thousands of miles behind, and the waves will curb the flying boat, until here," After speaking, he pointed all the way north, and only stopped after advancing a third of the way in the hinterland of Yan Kingdom, and then clicked on the two black labels that were staggered before and after, and said:

"From the border to the national capital of Broken Leaves, there are two paths, and although there are many fortresses on the road, there is a city on each of the two roads, namely Yaonan City and Zhongliang City, which are also the two most difficult passes to attack after Dingbian, and after Yaonan and Zhongliang, it is wilderness and desert, although it is difficult to march, and there are fortresses blocking the road, but it faces Broken Leaves, and there will be no large-scale big cities in it, and this is also the reason why although there are many towns in the Yan Kingdom, they can be subdued by Murong Dan by thunder."

After speaking, he withdrew his hand and looked at everyone, only a moment later, he heard Liu Xiu suddenly speak, and said to Liang Jiandao, the former commander of the "Hidden Army" and the current commander of the "Fengcheng Army", who had been sitting in a corner that was difficult for others to pay attention to, bowed his head and thought carefully, and did not speak:

"General Liang, do you have any ideas?"

Everyone instantly turned their heads to look at Liang Jian.

Liang Jian was stunned for a moment, his face showed surprise and doubt, he thought that Liu Xiu let this lowly person come here just to meet the occasion, but he didn't expect to ask him what he thought, and he couldn't help but lose his mind in a trance, and after a while, he hurriedly got up, bowed and saluted, and replied:

"The last general does not know the shape of Yan Guo, and he does not dare to speak falsely, but if a country has two roads from the border to the capital, there must be a main road, the road is flat, and it is close to the broken leaves of the capital, but there are many passes, and the other is an auxiliary road, the road is tortuous and difficult, far from the capital, but there are fewer fortresses."

Seeing Liu Xiu nodding, Liang Jian's eyes flashed, he cleared his throat and continued:

"Northern Yan and Han Wei are different, perennial wind and sand, the land is mostly barren and wasteland, the people agriculture and animal husbandry account for half, although the military is strong, but the corresponding art of defending the city is not proficient, that is, the Yan soldiers are good at attacking but cowardly."

Before the words fell, I heard Liu Xiu clapping his hands and said continuously: "Okay!" Good! Good! Go on. ”

Liang Jian was encouraged, his voice couldn't help but increase, and he continued: "And through the guò sand table, the last general found that the distance between the fortresses and cities of Yan Kingdom is quite large, and even on the main road, and the last general also knew a little about the situation of Yan Kingdom a few days ago, knowing that the terrain of Yan Country is complex, and the wind and sand are strong in winter, and the people travel north almost every year to enter the city to avoid the wind, just because if they walk outside in winter, it is easy to get lost. ”

After speaking, he leaned forward, pointed to the sand table, and continued: "On the other road, it is much better. ”

Everyone's eyes followed his finger to the sand table, and saw that the direction he was pointing to was exactly the auxiliary road in his mouth.
