Indeed, in times of crisis, if Cui Hongsheng wants to save himself, he must first ensure the safety of the army, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, but in the bad situation of defeat like a mountain, if he wants to protect his army, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. The army is gone, the whole army is annihilated, and fleeing back alone is a great shame for the generals, and they will definitely be severely punished by the laws and military laws of the country.

The twelve ladies turned their eyes to Cui Jiu. Cui Hongsheng also looked at Cui Jiu, and a trace of expectation flashed in his melancholy eyes. Since the Twelve Ladies rushed to Liaodong to find themselves, and said that they wanted to save themselves, Li Fengyun must have come up with some countermeasures while making predictions, but Li Fengyun was thousands of miles away and did not know the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition at all. If the upcoming battle in Pyongyang is a deadlock in which there is no victory, then the only way to break the deadlock is to rely on unpredictable chances.

Cui Jiu looked hesitant, wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was not confident, I don't know if it was Li Fengyun's countermeasures that made him suspicious, or if he was worried that he would be scolded by Cui Hongsheng if he said it.

"In the battle of Pyongyang, although it is absolutely impossible to attack the enemy unprepared, our expeditionary force still has an absolute advantage." Cui Hongsheng saw that Cui Jiuyu was still difficult to speak, and knew that he was in awe of himself and did not dare to speak nonsense, so he said tentatively, "If the sailor is blocked under the city of Pyongyang and retreats after a slight setback, and there is not much loss in strength, then our expeditionary force can still implement the strategy of water 6 pincer." At that time, the Goguryeo people had no choice but to retreat on all fronts, hold on to the city, and trap Fanlong, so that they lost the possibility of roundabout maneuvering, while our expeditionary force took the initiative, and they could attack and retreat without worry. ”

"Ming Gong, the sailor's side, since crossing the sea, has been completely out of control." Cui Jiu cautiously replied, "How the sailor fights, Rong Guogong (Lai Hu'er) alone has the final say, and Rong Guogong is loyal to the Holy Lord and obeys his words, if the Holy Lord orders him to conquer Pyongyang at any cost, then even if Pyongyang is a sea of swords and fires, Rong Guogong will move forward and sacrifice his life to die." ”

"Rong Guo Gong is a famous general in Middle-earth, even if he has the order of the Holy Lord, he will not be brave, let alone jump into the trap to kill himself."

Although Cui Hongsheng belongs to a different aristocratic group from Laihuer and is an opponent in politics, he still admires Laihuer's talent.

The two generations of emperors of this dynasty have trusted Laihu'er and entrusted them with important tasks, especially since the Holy Lord ascended the throne, Laihu'er has become the spokesperson of the Holy Lord in the military, and has successively served as General Zuo Xiaowei, General Xiaowei on the right, and General Yiwei on the right. Although there is a possibility of failure for such a famous general to lead the naval division to go to Goguryeo, this possibility is indeed not large, and even if he cannot conquer Pyongyang, he will not be wiped out. As long as the sailors who came to Hu'er maintained their strong combat effectiveness, even if Pyongyang could not win the first battle, the safe evacuation of the expeditionary force would definitely not be a problem.

Cui Jiu hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered up the courage to say it, "Ming Gong, what if ......" hesitated for a moment, Cui Jiu accentuated his tone again, "If so, if above..." Cui Jiu raised his index finger and pointed to the sky a few times.

Cui Hongsheng's face changed suddenly, his eyes were sharp, like a sword out of the sheath, and the cold was pressing.

The Twelve Ladies glared at Cui Jiu, as if they were very dissatisfied with his cowardice, "My lord, there is a rebellion on the side of the Holy Lord, and he is also involved in decision-making and knows all the secrets. ”

"What's the proof?" Cui Hongsheng stood up abruptly and shouted, "If there is no evidence, random suspicion is a big crime of the Zhu clan." ”

"It's been more than two months, and the expeditionary force hasn't conquered Liaodong City, this is the evidence." The Twelve Ladies also stood up and said very angrily, "I heard that at every critical moment, the Goguryeo people come to surrender and negotiate, and this is the evidence." I would like to ask my lord, why do the Goguryeo people have such an accurate grasp of the battlefield situation and every move of the palace? The Holy Lord came with all his national strength, but he did not have the determination to destroy Goguryeo by force, and only wanted to take advantage of opportunism and force Goguryeo to surrender unconditionally to win the victory of the Eastern Crusade, so highly secret, how did the Goguryeo people know? If they don't know, where do they have the courage to surrender again and again, and play with the Holy Lord again and again? A group of barbarians are unscrupulously playing with my Middle-earth Holy Lord, if there is no reliance, if there is no black hand behind it, do you believe it? ”

Cui Hongsheng really didn't believe it, he also had doubts about the capricious teasing of the Holy Lord and the center by the Goguryeo people, but he didn't expect that there would be traitors around the Holy Lord and inside the center, but if you think about it carefully, this kind of unbelievable thing is not impossible.

In recent years, with the pace of reform getting faster and faster, the contradictions and conflicts within the Eastern Capital have reached the brink of exploding. If the crusade were to fail and the emperor and central authority were lost, the reformists' attempt to speed up the reform process would have completely failed, and the conservatives would take advantage of the opportunity to "make it difficult" and spare no effort to hinder or even sabotage the ongoing reforms. Once the reform comes to a standstill or regression, the emperor and the central government will fall into passivity and have to retreat step by step, and once this retreat evolves into a rout, the emperor and the central center will inevitably be wiped out in the political storm, so that the reform will also fail, and the goal of the conservatives will be achieved.

The more Cui Hongsheng thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his face became more and more ugly. Li Fengyun's previous predictions were correct, if his prediction of the next Eastern Expedition was still correct, and the Middle-earth Expeditionary Force suffered a crushing defeat and was wiped out in the case of absolute superiority, then there is only one explanation, there is a traitor within the center, and he is a traitor who knows the top secret, otherwise the Eastern Expedition will definitely not have such an unbelievable ending.

Originally, Cui Hongsheng was powerless in the face of the predicament, if there was really a traitor in the center, Cui Hongsheng would not be able to turn the tide even if he had three heads and six arms, it would not be a level of battle at all, and he would not even have the power to protect himself.

"The sailor is more auspicious than lucky." Cui Jiu saw Cui Hongsheng sit down slowly, silent for a long time, knowing that he was shocked by this prediction, just as he was also stunned by Li Fengyun's prediction. If this is the case, this battle will not have to be fought, there is no intention to calculate, no matter how you fight, you will lose, especially on the side of the sailor, there is no advantage in strength, and the Goguryeo people understand it clearly, even if Lai Hu'er and Zhou Fashang are all generals of a hundred battles, they are all famous commanders of Middle-earth, it is difficult to retreat with their whole body, unless they follow the orders of the commander-in-chief, wait for the 6th Route Army to kill Pyongyang before attacking, so that the Goguryeo people's tricks cannot succeed, otherwise they will fall into the trap.

If the water division is defeated, then the advantage of the 6th Route Army will not be much, and this remaining advantage will also be offset by many unfavorable conditions such as the lack of attack time and the lack of supply of grain and grass, and there is only a retreat, and the prerequisite for retreat is that the Sashui channel must be firmly controlled.

A little luck in Cui Hongsheng's heart was completely destroyed by the shocking speculation of "traitor", so he also knew how to save the army and how to save himself, that is, to find ways to win the task of guarding Sashui from the front-line headquarters.

This is very difficult, he and the right Yiwei general Yu Zhongwen, the left Yiwei general Yu Wenshu, Shangshu and the right Cheng Liu Shilong are all opponents in politics, and the other commanders are not "all the way", among the other commanders, the left Xiaowei general Jing Yuanheng is Jiangzuo, the right Houwei general Wei Wensheng is a Heluo noble, the right Yiwei general Xue Shixiong is a Hedong noble, the right Tunwei general Xin Shixiong is a famous general in Longxi, the right imperial guard general Zhang Jin is a Guanzhong family, and the right Houwei general Zhao Xiaocai is a Hexi hero, and they all have conflicts of interest. There is no way to form a joint force to influence the decision-making of the command, so if Cui Hongsheng wants to rush to the front of the army, no one will object, but if he stays behind the army and guards the retreat for the expeditionary force, it will not work. Obviously, the person who stays behind is definitely the most trusted person in the front-line command, and the most trusted person in the front-line command is definitely not Cui Hongsheng.

Cui Hongsheng thought for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "Where is the plan?" ”

His question was a euphemism to the Twelve Ladies and Cui Jiu, he completely agreed with Li Fengyun's prediction, and now, he urgently needed Li Fengyun's strategy to break the situation.

Cui Jiu didn't dare to hesitate, "Ming Gong wants to kill someone." ”

"Who?"

"Kill Etozhi Wende."

Cui Hongsheng was stunned for a moment, and then his anger surged, and he almost wanted to yell at Cui Jiu.

Is this also a countermeasure? Ulji Mundeok is the first powerful minister of Goguryeo, the master, auxiliary minister, and first ruler of Goguryeo King Gao Yuan, and below Gao Yuan is Ulji Wendeok. It was through his efforts that the Goguryeo people realized their dreams for generations, and Goguryeo became the hegemon of the peninsula and the first power in the Far East. It was precisely because the rise of Goguryeo in the Far East affected the national defense strategy and border security of Middle-earth that Middle-earth launched an attack on this small barbarian country. For the emperor and the center, the first target to be killed in the Eastern Crusade was Eulji Mundeok, followed by Goguryeo King Gao Yuan. In this long-range attack on Pyongyang, the emperor issued a secret decree to the front-line commander-in-chief, if there is an opportunity, Ulji Mundeok must be arrested or killed. As soon as Eulji Moondeok died, the mainstay of the Goguryeo people fell, the people's hearts were scattered, the morale of the army was chaotic, and it was easy to conquer Pyongyang.

The importance of Eulji Wende to Goguryeo, Gao Yuan knew, Eulji Wende knew, and the Goguryeo people knew, so since the attack of the Middle-earth Expeditionary Force, although the negotiations between the two sides have been carried out round after round, Eulji Wende has never shown his face and has not given the Middle-earth people any chance to kill him. Now, Cui Jiu actually offered advice to kill Yizhi Wende, this is not as difficult as climbing to the sky, this is simply impossible. Eulji Moondeok is hiding in Pyongyang with his head shrunk like a turtle, how to kill him?

Of course, this strategy is a good plan, killing Eulji Moondeok, the expeditionary force not only has the hope of conquering Pyongyang, Choi Hongsheng also has a great contribution, taking a step back, even if the expeditionary force failed to conquer Pyongyang, and even suffered heavy losses by the Goguryeo counterattack on the way back, but Cui Hongsheng was able to survive only by killing Ulji Moondeok.

Choi Hongsheng forced himself to calm down. This strategy is definitely not from Cui Jiu, but from Li Fengyun, and Li Fengyun is a person who can spy on the heavenly opportunity, so it is speculated that in the process of the expeditionary force's long-distance attack on Pyongyang, Eulji Wendeok may show up, and may personally deceive and negotiate to hinder the advance of the expeditionary force and delay the arrival of the expeditionary force in Pyongyang, so as to win the fighter for Pyongyang to mobilize the main force to defeat the Zhongtu Naval Division and destroy the Zhongtu Water 6 pincer.

Cui Hongsheng was silent. Cui Jiu didn't speak either. The Twelve Ladies couldn't help but add, "Li Fengyun's prediction, so far, is not bad, and adults would rather believe it than believe it, so as not to miss the opportunity to save themselves." ”

"Good" Cui Hongsheng said categorically, "I'll be a pioneer and see if I can find an opportunity to kill Yizhi Wende." ”
