On the third day of the ninth month, Zhou Zhong, the commander-in-chief of the Alliance's Right Route Army, and Lai Yuan, the commander-in-chief, led the Yu cavalry to Daning, while Yue Gao, the commander-in-chief of the Alliance, led the Third Army to Xiaoning City and successfully rendezvoused with the Fifth Army of the Alliance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After receiving this news, Xiahou Zhe, the commander-in-chief of the Left Route Army of the Alliance, immediately led the First Army of the Alliance out of the fortress and arrived at Yanziyuan at dusk to meet Li Fengyun.

The news from Yue Gao was very timely, and it allowed Li Fengyun to roughly guess the time when King Qi arrived in Guangning, if nothing else, it should be yesterday or today. Although the Yin Shishi did not want to lose control of Yanbei, in the face of the front and back attacks of foreign forces and local forces, he had to compromise and retreat and win stability through cooperation, otherwise the situation in Yanbei would be out of control and would seriously endanger the security of northern Xinjiang, which was obviously not in line with the interests of the Zhuojun Left-behind Mansion and deviated from the will of the Holy Lord and the center. The Yin Shishi compromised, and a stalemate and confrontation was formed between the King of Qi, the Left-behind Mansion, the local forces and the left-behind forces of the Alliance, and this was exactly what Li Fengyun needed, after all, under the current situation, the dominance of the King of Qi's family was not conducive to the development of the alliance, and it would do more harm than good to King Qi himself.

Of course, this is Li Fengyun's view, and Li Zixiong's opinion is contrary to it. In order to promote the development of the situation in the direction of the dominance of the King of Qi, Li Zixiong took the initiative to capture Guangning City and sack the Guangning treasury.

"If the King of Qi arrives in Guangning today, and Li Zixiong crosses Yanshui today, then ......" Li Fengyun's expression was a little gloomy, "Even if he travels day and night, Li Zixiong will not be able to reach Huaihuang until at least the sixth day of the first month, and the seventh army of the first month can go north, so that the Turks will have more time to deal with it, and the variables will be great." ”

"The variables are too big for us to be prepared for." Guo Ming, the head of the Tiger Army, said unceremoniously, "The Duke of Jianchang plundered Guangning without authorization, delaying not only the time to go north to the fortress, but also giving the left-behind mansion a head-on blow, the Yin Shishi is angry and angry, and it is very likely to launch an attack on the flying fox in retaliation, or set up many obstacles for us in the future cooperation, in addition, Guangning has a lot of treasury, and it is inconvenient to carry and transport, which will not only affect our marching speed, endanger our plan to attack Anzhou, but also attract the attention of the Turks and induce the greed of the Turks. If the Turks attack with all their might in order to seize the treasury and defeat both of us, we will inevitably be stopped by the Lightning River and our success will be lost. ”

Lu Xingxing glanced at Guo Ming and sneered, "Why talk nonsense? Jianchang Gong is unpredictable, has no plans, and is not credible. ”

Yuan An hurriedly shook his hand, "Don't talk nonsense." Although it is conducive to the growth of the King of Qi and the control of Yanbei by the King of Qi, these are small profits, not worth mentioning, and are not conducive to long-term development. Only the Great War between the North and the South determined the fate of the King of Qi, and only after defeating the Turks and making contributions to the King of Qi could it be possible to change the fate, so strength is important, but winning the Civil War is more important, and capturing Anzhou, controlling the Northeast, and reversing the situation of the Northern Xinjiang Suppression is a major measure to increase the chances of winning the war. It is clear which of the two is more important than the other, and with the wisdom of Jianchang Gong, of course, we strive to cooperate, rather than deliberately provoking contradictions and sabotaging cooperation. ”

Lu Xingxing sneered, and was about to refute, but Li Fengyun raised his hand to stop it, and scolded sharply, "At the moment of the great enemy, do you still have the heart to suspect that your family is plotting against you?" You are in chaos and destroying the Great Wall, what is your intention? ”

Lu Xingxing was startled and obediently closed his mouth.

Li Fengyun glared at him fiercely, with a warning in his eyes, "If you dare to talk nonsense, you will be severely punished." ”

Lu Xingxing didn't dare to speak, but Guo Ming muttered dissatisfiedly, "I'm not wrong, the speed of the soldiers is to be light and simple, and too much grain and grass will inevitably drag down the speed, so why do you want to capture Guangning?" Why loot the Quang Ninh treasury? There's no need at all. ”

"Since it's not necessary, then leave it to King Qi." Li Fengyun turned his head and glared at Guo Ming again.

"Ming Gong is right, you don't have to care about this matter, the right to be the Duke of Jianchang and the King of Qi joined forces to calculate the Yin Shishi, and the Duke of Jianchang was originally charging for the King of Qi, so the looting of the Guangning treasury is of course for the King of Qi, because he is worried that the King of Qi will not have a stable foothold when he first arrives in the border area, and he will be used by the Yin Shishi to use grain and grass to get stuck in his throat, so that he will be passive and constrained everywhere." Xiao Yi came forward at the right time to make a round, "However, Manager Guo's worries are also reasonable, and we can't help but take precautions, so we must take the initiative, we must control the development of the situation, and we must not let the predicted variables affect our strategy, that is to say, we must strictly follow the predetermined policy and complete the predetermined goal within the predetermined time, so as to ensure that we can successfully capture Anzhou within the predetermined time." ”

As soon as this statement came out, it immediately won the unanimous response of Guo Ming, Lu Xingxing, Xu Shisan, Xiahou Zhe, Zhong Xin and other heroes. The establishment of trust is not an overnight thing, and the new arrival of the elite forces led by Li Zixiong has shown an aggressive momentum, which has led to particularly fierce contradictions and conflicts between the two sides, which Li Fengyun knows very well, which is why he took the initiative to lead the selection of the front army to "open the way ahead", as long as the elite of the alliance implements the predetermined strategy to the letter, he can ensure that he can control the development of the situation.

The alliance marched north to ten armies, Li Fengyun actually controlled eight armies, and now except for Hai Dongqing's fourth army of the alliance is still on the way north, the remaining seven armies are inside and outside the Great Wall, and they will be able to gather in Yanziyuan tomorrow, so as long as Li Fengyun gives an order, nearly 30,000 soldiers of the seven armies can start to advance into the Lightning River within the scheduled time, that is, on the fifth day of the first month of September.

Li Fengyun made a decisive decision and ordered the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th armies of the alliance still within the Great Wall to speed up their march, and be sure to reach Yanziyuan before dusk tomorrow, and advance north to the Lightning River on the fifth day of the first month.

He also ordered the commander-in-chief Zhou Zhong and Lai Yuan to lead the Yu cavalry to rush to the front line of Yehuling and Xiaoning to ensure the control of the Yehu Pass, so as to meet the safe exit of Li Zixiong and other follow-up armies.

He also wrote to Li Zixiong urgently, asking him to speed up the pace of going north, follow the pace of the main force going north, and not delay and delay.

Subsequently, Li Fengyun told in detail the causes and consequences of the plan to lure and annihilate the horse thieves outside the Saiwai, "If this battle is fought well, the alliance will be able to establish a brave and warlike horse army at the fastest speed and in the shortest possible time, and with the cooperation of this horse army, we can conquer everything on the battlefield outside the Saiwai and be invincible." ”

"Tonight, the tiger and the wind and clouds surround the border city." Li Fengyun immediately began to attack and deploy, "After the early morning, implement the plan of stealing beams and changing pillars, before dawn, all the merchants in the border market and their entourage must withdraw into the camp in a safe and orderly manner, and no omission is allowed, if there are fugitives, there will be no mercy." ”

"Tomorrow morning, the hussars and the First Army will launch an attack on Huaihuang City."

The heroes were emotionally excited and agreed with a bang.

On the third day of the first month, on the night, the lightning river is seven waters, and the southeast tooth flag is moraine.

In the past two days, the news of Youyan suddenly "broke out", and urgent messages from various channels flew like snowflakes, and Ji Ji set Ashina Du, Jia Bitler Ashina Simo and Tong Lifa Shi Shu Hu Xi were "dazzled", and they were even more frightened, could it be that the Great War between the North and the South began?

Among the many news, the most interesting is the movement of the Emperor of Middle-earth. There is evidence that the Emperor of Middle-earth has no sign of returning to Jingshi for the time being, and it is rumored that the Emperor of Middle-earth is very worried about the situation in Youyan, and in order to ensure the safety of northern Xinjiang, he intends to wait until the situation stabilizes before returning to Beijing.

If the rumors are true, then the inside story of the Emperor of Middle-earth's stay in Youyan is complicated, and it is worth considering. What was the reason for the Middle-earth Emperor to stay? Was it that Yang Xuangan's rebellion had intensified and seriously endangered the security of Guozuo, forcing the Emperor of Middle-earth to withdraw his expeditionary force from Liaodong and personally lead the army back to Beijing to quell the rebellion, or did Yang Xuangan's rebellion have failed and the Emperor of Middle-earth no longer had the urgency to return to Beijing, so he turned his attention to stabilizing the situation in Youyan? If the reason is the latter, then considering that the Eastern Crusade of Middle-earth for two consecutive years has completely dragged down Goguryeo, the Far Eastern captives are no longer in trouble, and the benefits of the Far East are already at your fingertips, then Shi Shu Huxi's speculation may be correct, and Middle-earth will inevitably turn its attention to the desert and actively prepare for the Civil War, and the primary goal is the Northeast captives, that is, to cut off the "left arm" of the Turks and cut off one of the Turkic arms.

Starting from this assumption, the rumors about the border of the king of Qi and the inference that the white-haired thief went out of the fortress are more credible.

And that's exactly what happened. The latest news confirms that a shocking case of "conspiracy to assassinate the emperor of Middle-earth" suddenly broke out in northern Hebei, where the super wealthy families of Middle-earth are concentrated, and the conspirators are the Turks. It is not difficult to predict that this major case will inevitably affect the relations between the north and the south, and the emperor of Middle-earth, under the fury, is very likely to use this as an excuse to attack the Turks, even if he will not take the initiative to provoke a civil war for the time being, but at least he can find an excuse to attack the three tribes in the northeast and annex the northeast as a retaliation.

If the Emperor of Middle-earth wants to attack the Northeast, he must occupy the Northeast at the minimum cost, the first condition is to maintain the relationship between the north and the south, not to tear his face with the Turks, not to fight with the Turks, and the most effective and direct countermeasure is to increase the strength of the northern Xinjiang, especially the northern Yanbei, to firmly contain the southeast Yaqi, so that they are unable to support the three tribes in the northeast.

This speculation has also proved to be correct. The latest news confirms that the Great Wall of Yanbei has lit a beacon fire, which shows that the army of the white-haired thief has approached the Great Wall and will soon be out of the fortress, and after the white-haired thief is out of the fortress, the king of Qi will also arrive at the Great Wall.

The white-haired thief came out alone, and if he didn't have the protection of King Qi, he couldn't hold on at all. When the king of Qi arrived at the Great Wall, the white-haired thief came out of the wilderness, the strength of Yanbei Zhenshu swelled sharply, and the relationship between the north and the south became more and more tense.

At present, the situation in the northeast is very unfavorable for the Turks, the Xi and Khitan people are fighting fiercely on the front line of the Tuochen River, and the army of Buli Shean Ashina and the Xi people is showing troops on the south bank of the weak Luoshui, watching the fire from the other side, watching the fire from the other side, watching from the sidelines, not realizing that the tiger in Middle-earth has quietly opened its bloody mouth and wants to swallow them in one bite.

"Without further ado, please send 100,000 people to rush to Luoshui to save the Northeast from danger." Qi Ji set Ashina did not dare to slack off, and immediately made a decision, directly "coercing" Shi Shu Hu Xi to immediately rush to the aid of Bu Lishe.

Shi Shu Hu Xi was silent.
