Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The exhibition of many things does not meet people's wishes, let alone be diverted by people's will.
Originally, Duan Wencao designed to gather all the rebel armies in southwest Lu together, so that the official army could fight a battle. This policy was implemented by Xu Shiren and cooperated by Zhang Xutuo, and it was quickly realized. But the result was contrary to Duan Wencao's original intention, and after the alliance, the rebel army grew rapidly, not only in terms of strength enough to compete with it, but also beat him very passive on the battlefield.
The reason why the heroes of southwest Lu were willing to form an alliance at the beginning was that their respective strength was insufficient and they could not defeat the official army, and second, they were in danger and had to form an alliance because their survival was difficult. Among them, Li Fengyun's purpose was to annex them and strengthen himself, while Han Jinluo and other heroes wanted to use Li Fengyun's power to temporarily tide over the difficulties. Both sides have their own goals and take what they need, especially Han Jinluo Zhuxiong, who both regard the alliance as a means of survival, and both want to wait until the shape of the shì is better to go back to the alliance and continue to be their own mountain king.
However, the result is also the opposite of what everyone originally intended. With the exhibition of the form, Li Fengyun not only failed to annex Han Jinluo Zhuxiong to strengthen himself, but because of the preservation of the covenant oath, he had to give up the great opportunity of his own exhibition, and instead risked a complete defeat and tried his best to rescue the friendly army. However, Han Jinluo Zhuxiong not only did not survive the existential crisis, but fell into a desperate situation of annihilation of the whole army, and the consequences of forming an alliance were more severe than that of non-alignment.
People cannot stand without faith, and the country will decline without faith. Li Fengyun has lofty ambitions and does not want to be a mountain king, especially attaches great importance to "faithfulness", but if you want to achieve great things, you can't rely on one person or a few people, you must have a united team, and what does this team rely on to unite together? "Faithfulness". It is difficult to build a team, and it is even more difficult to build a team with "Xinyi" as the spiritual core, but once it is successful, this team will be strong and invincible. But human nature is selfish, interests come first, and if anyone in a position of authority wants to succeed, he must find a balance between interests and beliefs, which requires great wisdom.
Li Fengyun must plant the seeds of "Xinyi" at the beginning of building the team, and as the team grows, the seeds of "Xinyi" also sprout and blossom, only in this way can the team hope to achieve great achievements. "Faithfulness" cannot stay in books and mouths, "faithfulness" must flow into the heart, must be integrated into blood and thoughts, become the supreme faith, and then transformed into conscious practice, so that it can wield its invincible power.
In order to achieve this lofty goal, Li Fengyun must take one step at a time and go down to earth, so today he must convince Han Yao, Meng Haigong, and his subordinates to convince them that this battle must be fought and will definitely be won. There are not only interests to be earned, but also to take care of faith, such a good thing, of course, is rushing.
In the handsome tent of the Cangtou Army, everyone was excited, and the discussion was very enthusiastic. Li Fengyun slowly stood up, walked to the map, and with the help of the good atmosphere in the tent, he guided everyone's thoughts while deducing the battle situation.
At present, Duan Wencao's strength is not absolutely superior to that of the righteous army. Although the Lu army, which was established not long ago, with the township regiment as the main force, was as strong as five or six thousand and had sufficient weapons, Yan Zòng lacked combat experience, and the real threat to the righteous army was the Yingyangfu army, but because of the Eastern Expedition, all the main forces of Yingyangfu in Lu County were transferred, and the remaining troops were less than 1,000 people. Considering that important towns such as Fangqiu needed to be defended, the army that Duan Wencao brought to Ningyang City would not exceed five thousand.
The total strength of the rebel army was more than that of the Lu army, but most of them lacked combat experience, and in addition to the Cangtou army, the other rebel armies also generally lacked weapons, and their combat effectiveness was significantly weaker than that of the Lu army. Specific to the battle of Ningyang, the besieged Han Jinluo and other four heroes still have nearly 3,000 troops, but they can't be counted on, and the only ones who can really throw the righteous army on the battlefield are the Cangtou Army and the Jiyin Army. The strength of the two armies increased by about 3,000 people, which was less than the official army in terms of numbers, considering that at the moment of the decisive battle, Duan Wencao still had to leave some men and horses to surround the city, so the actual strength of the two warring sides should be almost the same.
If the strength of the two sides is about the same, then it is not Duan Wencao who has the advantage, but Li Fengyun. Li Fengyun's Cangtou army had a certain amount of combat experience, and after a whole winter of training, their morale was high, their weapons were sufficient, and they had a large number of heavy weapons. If the two armies clash hard, the chances of the officers and troops winning are not great, even if the officers and troops win in the end, it will be a miserable victory, and the price they pay is very heavy, and Duan Wencao can't bear it at all. Just imagine, if his army is lost by more than half, what will he do next to besiege Ningyang City? The rebels in Ningyang City took advantage of his dying moment to fight hard, and the official army was bound to be defeated. The official army was defeated, there were few troops left, and the fighting spirit was gone, and in the end, they could only hold the few cities around Fubianqiu, as for the chaos and thieves, then there was no need to think about it, in this way, the situation in southwest Lu was one-sided, which would inevitably affect the entire Qilu situation, which was obviously a result that Duan Wencao did not want to see.
Therefore, carefully deducing the battle of Ningyang, it is not difficult to appear, as Yuan An said, Duan Wencao did not dare to fight a decisive battle, and did not dare to fight with all his might, unless he was absolutely sure that he would defeat the front and rear attacks of the two rebel armies outside the city and inside the city at the same time in the decisive battle, but this difficulty was obviously too great, and he had to consider the consequences of defeat, once defeated, the consequences would be too strict, like a terrifying nightmare.
"Analyzing the situation in Qilu in the context of the national crusade, it is not difficult to deduce that if Duan Wencao wants to reverse the situation in Lu County and even Qilu, or maintain the current situation so that it will not deteriorate, he must first ensure his own safety, no matter what the situation is, he must be invincible, for this he must quickly expand himself, and the army is the capital of his life, without the army, what else can Duan Wencao do?"
Li Fengyun spoke eloquently, his demeanor was calm, and his gestures were full of confidence.
Zhang Xutuo is a clear example, it is precisely because Zhang Xutuo has established an army completely controlled by himself, that he has kept his career and taken the opportunity to win the greatest benefits under the bad situation of rebellion and chaos in Qi County. With Zhang Xutuo's successful precedent, how can Duan Wencao fail? ”
Could it be that Duan Wencao stopped fighting in order to preserve his strength? Lu Xingxing didn't figure it out after thinking about it, so he asked, "General, is Duan Wencao still fighting this battle?" We killed Ningyang and put on a decisive battle posture, if Duan Wencao didn't fight and left without a fight, it would definitely be a blow to his prestige. In addition, Duan Wencao did not fight, withdrew to the flawed hill, and let us capture Ningyang, the strength of the two sides was very unfavorable to Duan Wencao to reverse the situation, could it be that he held the city from now on and defended passively until the return of the Eastern Expeditionary Army? ”
Li Fengyun glanced at Meng Haigong, smiled meaningfully, and did not answer Lu Xingxing.
Meng Haigong also had doubts, but when he saw Li Fengyun's meaningful smile, his mind flashed, and he couldn't help but secretly scream ashamed, he already knew the answer, and he also knew why Li Fengyun had to attack Ningyang.
The Rebel Alliance is temporary, and behind it is not only the figure secretly controlled by Duan Wencao, but also the heavy pressure brought by Zhang Xutuo's army moving south. Now that Zhang Xutuo has returned to Qi County with the army, if Duan Wencao takes the initiative to retreat to Flawy Hill again, the survival crisis of the rebel army from all walks of life will pass, plus they have obtained the food in Ningyang City, and they have the conditions to expand and grow, imagine that this alliance will continue to exist? Definitely not. Han Jinluo and the other four handsome, like Meng Haigong, all want to be their own boss, they don't want to be subservient, let alone let Li Fengyun eat it in one bite, and there are inherent conflicts of regional interests between the Qi and Chu people, so it is foreseeable that as long as they come out of Ningyang City, they will definitely return to their hometowns, Han Jinluo and Zhen Baoche will return to Jibei, Shuai Rentai and Huo Xiaohan will return to Juyeze, and everyone will not go to Mengshan.
The alliance was disbanded, the rebels returned to their hometowns, each fighting for their own battles, the strength of each rebel army was insufficient, and they could not defeat Duan Wencao, so Duan Wencao was equivalent to a soldier who surrendered without a fight, and destroyed the rebel alliance without much effort, and regained control of the battle situation in Lu County, and then he turned from passive to active, and he could encircle and suppress the rebels in the southwest of Lu, and break them individually.
Li Fengyun has obviously foreseen the direction of the alliance, from his position, of course he does not want the alliance to be disbanded, but hope is hopeful, he is powerless to stop, for this reason, he can only retreat to the next best thing, and find ways to preserve the strength of the righteous army, for this reason, he must attack Ningyang, must fight a decisive battle with Duan Wencao, and must severely damage Duan Wencao, so as not to dissolve the alliance after the decisive battle, and the righteous army from all walks of life will fall into Duan Wencao's encirclement and interception. As long as the strength of the rebel army can be preserved, then the entire situation in Lunan will not be subverted, which is very beneficial to the development and growth of the Cangtou army.
At the same time, Li Fengyun obviously wanted to use this battle to consume the strength of Han Jinluo and the other four heroes, so as to force them to lose the conditions for self-reliance after the decisive battle, and had to be subsumed under the cangtou army, so that he not only annexed the friendly army openly, but also quickly strengthened himself.
Meng Haigong was originally very jealous of Li Fengyun and worried that he would be eaten by the Cangtou army, but now that he had guessed Li Fengyun's intention to attack Ningyang, he was even more vigilant.
In fact, he is still willing to form an alliance, help each other when there is difficulty, and those with small power will definitely be able to use the alliance to take advantage of the big one, such as this time to fight Rencheng, he followed Li Fengyun and picked up a big advantage. As for the return to the service, he didn't even think about it. What kind of prince will Xiangning have? Now that everyone is on the starting line, they all have the opportunity to be the king, why do I give up my dream before I struggle and follow you? Unless you reach the end of the road and there is really no chance to turn over, it is impossible to be a little brother for others. Besides, with Li Fengyun's conditions, it is too difficult to claim the title of king and hegemon, a horse thief from Liaodong can't reach the world or the ground, and has nothing, even if he has eighteen skills, his exhibition is very limited. Since Li Fengyun has no future, why should I go to him?
Meng Haigong believed that Han Jinluo and the other four heroes had the same idea as himself, and the reason why they formed an alliance with Li Fengyun was to survive, and second, to use Li Fengyun's strength to strengthen themselves. Now that these two goals have been achieved, and the goal of forming an alliance with Li Fengyun has been achieved, considering that Li Fengyun is eyeing everyone and has the heart to devour it, it is too dangerous, who would dare to maintain this alliance? Look for death.
Meng Haigong remained cautious, kept silent, kept a low profile, and remained silent.
Seeing that Li Fengyun didn't speak, Lu Xingxing turned his gaze to Han Yao and Yuan An. Of course, Han Yao understood Li Fengyun's thoughts, the reason why he was unwilling to fight Ningyang was because he didn't want to do this kind of thing that would obviously cause a loss. Yuan An can understand Li Fengyun, sometimes it is not a bad thing to suffer a loss, and to suffer a loss is to take advantage. Don't look at the loss this time, the next time Han Jinluo and the others are defeated by the official army and are cornered, they will inevitably defect, so they will take advantage.
"If Duan Wencao doesn't fight, we will rescue the friendly army, and then the alliance will be dissolved." Yuan An pointed at Meng Haigong and said with a smile, "You ask Meng Lushi, is he like an arrow now?" Han Jinluo: The same goes for them. Zhang Xutuo is gone, Duan Wencao has returned to Defective Hill, Ningyang's grain has been obtained again, all the crises have been solved, what are you doing here? Homecoming, of course. ”
Lu Xingxing and the generals looked at each other, suddenly realized, and couldn't help but burst into a foul language. But if you think about it, it's not to blame people. Although Han Jinluo, Meng Haigong and others took advantage of the power of the Cangtou Army, the Cangtou Army also used this alliance to strengthen its momentum, expand its territory, and also get benefits. Now that people's difficulties have been solved, they are going home, of course, it is reasonable. It's just that the alliance of the rebels is scattered and they are fighting separately, and the weak Han Jinluo and others may be broken by the officials and the army.
Jiang is still old and spicy, Duan Wencao is not obvious about mountains and water, and he is bored with a lot of money.
