Wang Ruxin crossed the river to the north overnight and reported to Zhai Rang.
At midnight on the same day, Lu Xingxing galloped to the headquarters of the alliance. The First Army of the Union followed, and under the cover of night, hurried to the main camp.
Lu Xingxing was dusty, carrying a horsewhip in one hand and wiping the sweat on his cheeks with the other, strode towards the handsome tent, and met Zhen Baoche, the head of the Tiger Ben Army, who was also in a hurry. Lu Xingxing hurriedly stopped, greeting with a smile on his face. Zhen Baoche looked stern, his footsteps did not stop, and he returned the salute with a slight bow. The smile on Lu Xingxing's face suddenly froze, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes.
The two were the chief and deputy commanders of the Xuanfeng Army before, and after a period of running-in, they cooperated tacitly and got along very well. It is normal to have estrangement, and the Tiger Army, which was reorganized into the direct command of the Commander in Draft, is still the most elite army in the alliance, and leading such an army does not worry about the results at all. Lu Xingxing took it for granted that the commander of the Tiger Ben Army belonged to him, after all, he was Li Fengyun's cronies, a member of the Cangtou Army, and a subordinate that Li Fengyun absolutely trusted, but the result was unexpected, he left the alliance headquarters and went to the Middle Route Army to serve as Meng Haigong's deputy, and took on the heavy responsibility of pinning Meng Haigong. Does this count as reuse? Lu Xingxing has a negative attitude, has an opinion on Li Fengyun, and is even more jealous of Zhen Baoche.
When the camp hurriedly saw it, Lu Xingxing was respectful and saluted, while Zhen Baoche looked arrogant. Today's Zhen Baoche commands the most elite tiger army in the alliance, and he is at the core of the alliance's power, so his mentality is naturally different, and today's Lu Xingxing is just the deputy head of the three outer provinces, and there is a considerable gap between Zhen Baoche's status, and it is inevitable that Zhen Baoche will be arrogant.
Lu Xingxing originally wanted to have a few words with Zhen Baoche and find out the reason for the sudden change in the attack deployment of the command. Although the armies of the three outer provinces were huge, as many as thirteen armies, they lacked training, weapons, and combat effectiveness, and it was okay to bluff and confront the official army in a stalemate, and it was purely self-defeating to pull them into the battlefield to attack the city, so the armies of the three outer provinces did not participate in the first battle of Jishui. Now the headquarters ordered Lu Xingxing to rush to the Jishui battlefield with the first and second armies of the alliance, obviously to let them participate in the war. Lu Xingxing thought that the decision of the General Headquarters was inappropriate, but Li Fengyun was too authoritative, and Lu Xingxing did not dare to question the decision of the General Headquarters in front of Li Fengyun. At this moment, he happened to meet Zhen Baoche, of course Lu Xingxing wanted to listen to some secrets, but Zhen Baoche not only did not stop, but "put on a score", not even looking at him, which made Lu Xingxing extremely angry, and his face was very ugly.
After entering the handsome tent and seeing Li Fengyun, the resentment hidden in Lu Xingxing's heart finally exploded uncontrollably after Zhen Baoche teased him like this, his face was ugly, his words were ugly, and there was a tendency to draw his sword against each other without saying a word.
Regarding Lu Xingxing's arrangement, Li Fengyun is based on the overall interests of the alliance, but his ideas will definitely not be understood and accepted by all the senior officers of the Cangtou family, especially the party Lu Xingxing, it is normal to have ideas, but it is not normal to have no ideas. However, Li Fengyun did not want to "appease" Lu Xingxing, in his opinion, if Lu Xingxing did not even have this basic political literacy, it would be impossible for him to grow into a senior commander who was in charge of his own affairs.
Originally, Yuan An was supposed to be in charge of explaining the new attack deployment to Lu Xingxing in detail, but in the face of Lu Xingxing's cold face and murderous and violent eyes, Yuan An was a little frightened and hesitated to step forward. Li Fengyun waved at Yuan An, signaling him to go elsewhere, and then Li Fengyun walked to the map and personally explained to Lu Xingxing the new attack deployment and the causes and consequences of the headquarters being forced to adjust the attack deployment.
Li Fengyun spoke eloquently, with a calm demeanor and a low tone, like a sincere friend and a teacher who taught earnestly. Lu Xingxing seemed to have returned to the years when the Cangtou Army was struggling to survive, and saw Li Fengyun and the officers and soldiers of the Cangtou Army fighting bloodily together, struggling together on the line of life and death, the resentment in his heart gradually dissipated, and various negative feelings such as grievances and jealousy also faded away. Brothers are siblings, Li Fengyun will not abandon his brothers, let alone sacrifice his brothers who share life and death for his own interests. Since you have followed Li Fengyun and sworn to follow Li Fengyun to the death, then believe in Li Fengyun and bear all the hardships and setbacks with him. It should all be put down, and it should be all discarded.
"You are a feint, but a feint does not mean no attack." Li Fengyun finally said, "The combat effectiveness of the First and Second Armies is very limited, and it is very difficult for you to attack and reduce losses to the greatest extent. ”
Lu Xingxing nodded solemnly, "There is no Ying Yang under Wei Yunqi's tent, only the temporarily recruited Township Regiment Sect, although there is plenty of food and grass and sharp weapons, but in the face of the elite Tiger Ben of our alliance, there is no strength to fight at all." Lu Xingxing paused for a moment, thinking of Zhen Baoche and the Tiger Ben Army, thinking of the achievements at his fingertips, jealousy and hatred burned his whole body and mind like a spark of stars, and his face once again showed a gloomy color, "Ming Gong, if the Tiger Ben Army does its best, it will definitely be able to go down with one drum, so that my feint attack on the northern front will definitely reduce losses, or even no losses at all." ”
Li Fengyun smiled slightly, looked at him meaningfully, and asked, "Are you still nostalgic for the Tiger Army?" ”
Lu Xingxing struggled for a moment, and couldn't help but complain, "Ming Gong, that is the foundation of my Cangtou Army, and it is the foundation of Ming Gong." ”
The smile on Li Fengyun's face disappeared suddenly, his eyes were sharp, and he asked, "Compared to the Cangtou Army, who is stronger than the Alliance?" ”
Lu Xingxing didn't dare to look at Li Fengyun, bowed his head and said nothing.
"In today's situation, is it important to maintain the alliance, or is it important to maintain the selfish interests of the Cangtou Army?" Li Fengyun continued to question.
"Do we need a strong and united alliance of rebels to compete with the Eastern Capital and fight against the Weifu Army, or do we need a group of sporadic teams that take their own advantage and fight their own battles?"
"We can only survive if we want to grow quickly, and if the Cangtou Army wants to grow quickly, we must make a choice, whether to merge with all kinds of rebels, or to form an alliance with all kinds of heroes? The answer is self-explanatory. So, I ask you, is today's alliance the survival of my cangtou army after it grows stronger? Alliance, is it my blue-headed army? Again, the answer is self-evident. So, what should you do to achieve this goal? What should you do? ”
The alliance is my cangtou army. Lu Xingxing suddenly had an epiphany, he was wrong, he was ridiculously wrong.
If you want to integrate the other rebel armies with the Cangtou army, the only way is to form an alliance, and Li Fengyun used the strategy of westward expansion into the Central Plains, and after two army reorganizations, he successfully annexed the rebel armies. Now the Cangtou Army no longer exists, and the other rebel armies do not exist anymore, everyone is in the alliance, the three armies of the inner government and the thirteenth army of the outer three provinces are actually the products of the integration of the rebel armies of all walks of life, although there is still a danger of betrayal and split, but with the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court is getting stronger and stronger, the living environment is getting worse and worse, and the integration within the alliance will be faster and faster. When the various armies that were originally allied formed a whole, from the perspective of Li Fengyun and Lu Xingxing, the alliance was the Cangtou Army, and from the standpoint of Han Jinluo, Meng Haigong and others, the alliance was where the common interests of all the heroes were located, and it was inseparable.
It will take a process to achieve this goal, and in this process, Li Fengyun and the Cangtou army must give up the interests of the small group, and only in this way can they win the trust of the heroes from all walks of life, and only trust can make everyone work together to maintain the survival of the alliance.
It's just that human nature is selfish, and the gap between ideals and reality is very huge. Although Lu Xingxing understood and knew Li Fengyun's intention to transfer himself out of the alliance headquarters, it did not mean that he would be able to fully understand and give up his personal interests, so Li Fengyun told Lu Xingxing very realistically that it was impossible for the Tiger Ben Army to fight all the battles, and when the Thirteen Armies of the Outer Three Prefectures formed combat effectiveness, then the Tiger Ben Army would retreat from the main force position, turn into a reserve army, and play a key role at the critical moment. In other words, if Lu Xingxing had stayed in the Tiger Ben Army, he would eventually become the commander of the guard army of the Command, and his combat opportunities would become fewer and fewer, his strength would be smaller and smaller, and his record would be even more miserable.
Lu Xingxing nodded again and again, but he was still disappointed in his heart. The future is unknowable, and instead of pinning hopes on the slim future, it is better to cling to the immediate interests. It's just that Li Fengyun's authority cannot be violated, and even if Lu Xingxing is unbalanced, he can only endure it at this time.
Lu Xingxing was stationed in the general camp and continued to use the banner of Li Fengyun as the main force.
Li Fengyun and Li Mi together, with Xu Shisan's Fengyun army and Huo Xiaohan's hussar army, quietly left the main camp and rushed eastward.
The Wagang army suddenly appeared behind the official army, which surprised Wei Yunqi.
"Zhai Rang?" Wei Yunqi remembered this person, the former Dongjun Fa Cao Shuzuo, who robbed the White Horse prison robbery case last year, and it was this Zhai Rang who robbed him, but why did he choose to rebel at this moment?
"This timing is well chosen, but it is certainly not Zhai Rang's choice." Yang Qian pointed out, but he didn't say it thoroughly.
Wei Yunqi frowned and said nothing. Zhai Rang's choice to rebel at this moment must have nothing to do with the white thief, otherwise he would have raised the flag at the beginning of the white thief's invasion of the Central Plains, and would not have dragged it out until now. Zhai Rang is raising the flag now, and he happens to form a north-south attack with the white thief, which is very unfavorable to himself, which shows that the Xingyang Zheng clan not only wants to defeat himself, but also wants to kill himself. Killing himself was certainly a blow to Wei, but for the entire Guanlong aristocratic group, it was a shameless face, a slap in the face, and it was very painful.
"Ming Gong, the Henan thieves came with great fanfare, obviously to attract our attention, in order to deal with the white thieves forcibly crossing the Jishui River." Yang Qian looked at the map, pondered for a long time, and then asked, "Ming Gong, do you immediately dispatch some regiments and brigades to the north of the camp to block the attack of Henan thieves?" ”
Wei Yunqi didn't speak, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Yang Qian, "The thieves are attacking from the north and south, where is the main direction of attack?" South, or North? ”
Yang Qian suddenly thought of something, hesitated for a moment, and said in an uncertain tone, "Ming Gong, do you doubt ......?"
"Crossing the river to attack." Wei Yunqi made a decisive decision, "Do your best to attack the white thief." ”
