Chapter 113: A certain thief

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

"Why do you know so much about her? When you were in White Horse, did you see through her identity at a glance, so you took her hostage? ”

"A thief, a thief." Li Fengyun laughed, "The true identity of a certain is a thief, and he has never concealed it." As for why she knows her secret, the reason is simpler, because a certain thief does all kinds of evil, as long as it is something that a certain wants to do, he will definitely be able to do it, for example, the cooperation with Cui's. On behalf of Cui, you have delivered confidential information to X on three occasions, stating that the cooperation between X and Cui is ongoing and progressing smoothly. ”

Xu Shiyun was too lazy to mess with him, and re-entered the topic, "The Twelve Ladies said, next you have to fight Lu County, drive Duan Wencao away, and then turn your back on Qilu, face the Central Plains, and worry about advance and retreat." General Cui said that Peng Cheng secretly provided you with some grain to help you fight Lu County. ”

Li Fengyun immediately shook his hand, "Something is in charge, it's not the turn of the Cui family to dictate." It is very important that a certain is a collaborator of the Cui family, not a servant of his family. ”

Xu Shiyun nodded, agreeing with Li Fengyun's proposition. Li Fengyun has always adhered to the cooperation between the two sides on the basis of common interests, with the aim of maintaining the independence of the rebel army and controlling his own destiny, which will be beneficial to the future of the rebel army.

"There is indeed no food in Mengshan. You came at the right time today. With the news you sent, you can send the main force to attack Pengcheng tomorrow, and the target is Lanling County. Li Fengyun waved his hand in a spirited manner, "After a winter of hard training, the army has strong morale and strong combat effectiveness, and it is just right to test its skills in the small Lanling City." ”

"You're going to fight Pengcheng?" Xu Shiyun asked in surprise, "The Cui clan has decided to provide you with food, why do you still want to fight Pengcheng?" Didn't you slap the Cui family in the face? ”

"Because a certain wants to fight Lu County, hit Lu County Mansion Defective Hill." Li Fengyun said calmly, "If you don't go down the mountain to fight Pengcheng, Duan Wencao won't transfer the army from the front line of Surabaya and go to the northwest to kill Meng Haigong, Shuai Rentai and Huo Xiaohan, this is an obvious thing. This is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, just wait for Duan Wencao to transfer the army away from the foot of Mengshan Mountain, and then move his army westward, take the flawed hill with lightning speed, and put Duan Wencao to death. This plan has been planned since the beginning of the year, but if there is no tacit cooperation of the Cui family in the direction of Pengcheng, a certain person would never dare to fight Pengcheng, so as not to be self-defeating and humiliating. ”

"The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Xu Shiyun had to warn, "If you capture the Lu County Mansion and occupy Lu County, you are a bird, once the official army kills from all directions, how do you deal with it?" Return to Mengshan again? ”

"Do you still have illusions about the Crusades?" Li Fengyun said with a smile, "Brothers Zhai Rang, Brothers Shan Xiongxin, and those Wagang brothers, are they afraid that the Eastern Expeditionary Army will return victoriously, so they don't dare to raise the flag to rebel?" ”

Xu Shiyun remained silent, neither denying nor affirming. How could a million-strong army defeat a small barbarian country in Goguryeo? If you want to daydream, you do it alone, and I don't accompany you.

"Brother, there is a question, why don't you fight Langya County? With your current strength, you should be the most sure of Langya County. ”

Xu Shiyun took the initiative to change the topic, not wanting to hear Li Fengyun's words of encouraging him to rebel again.

"Langya County has a transportation channel connecting Donglai and Jianghuai, and whether this channel is smooth or not is directly related to whether the Donglai Navy can cross the sea expedition as scheduled, and is related to the success or failure of the Eastern Expedition." Li Fengyun asked rhetorically, "Since a certain person is pessimistic about the Eastern Crusade, why should he stop the Eastern Crusade?" Why did you stop the Donglai sailors from crossing the sea? Lai Hu'er and Zhou Fashang are doing their best to protect the Eastern Crusade, and fighting Langya at this moment is equivalent to calling Hu'er and Zhou Fashang, purely looking for death. On the contrary, a certain attack on Pengcheng and Lu County has nothing to do with their direct interests, and the day when the sailors cross the sea to fight is getting closer and closer, they are too busy to take care of themselves, where is the time to take care of the matter of suppressing the thieves? ”

"So, you're going to sweep south of the Great River this year?"

"I have such an idea, but my strength is not good, and more importantly, there is also a Zhang Xutuo in Qi County, and he is the most powerful opponent of the rebel army from all walks of life." Li Fengyun sneered, "Only by killing Zhang Xutuo and defeating his army can it be possible to sweep south of the Great River, otherwise, any grand cause is wishful thinking." ”

Zhang Xutuo? When did Zhang Xutuo, the commander of Qijun County, become so powerful? But thinking of Li Fengyun's unpredictable prediction ability, Xu Shiyun didn't dare to question, so he could only bring this sentence to Cui's in its entirety.

Li Fengyun not only refused to meet with the twelve ladies of the Cui family, but also had to go down the mountain to fight Pengcheng, which made Cui Jiu and Cui Deben very angry, but the twelve ladies hit the nail on the head with one sentence, "As long as the Cui family has the result, regardless of the means, as long as the goal can be achieved, any means can be used." ”

What is Choi's purpose? Regardless of whether the crusade is won or lost, the Choi clan needs a chaotic situation in Middle-earth, and the more chaotic the situation, the better. In this case, of course, it is necessary to make the greatest use of Li Fengyun and his army, especially at present, because Li Fengyun's strength is not good, he must be given enough help to make him grow stronger, so what Li Fengyun needs, then give him.

Liang Dezhong, the general of Wu Benlang who was temporarily in charge of Zuo Xiaowei's mansion, already knew that the twelve ladies of the Cui family had arrived in Pengcheng, but he knew the weight of the twelve ladies, and the two sides belonged to different aristocratic groups and political forces. Since the twelve ladies are hidden, of course he pretends not to know, but what are the twelve ladies doing in Pengcheng at this moment? It's not too boring, come and see your cousin Cui Deben, right?

A few days ago, the situation in Qilu changed, and Zhou Fashang adjusted the deployment of encircling and suppressing the Mengshan bandits, and transferred all the Yingyang troops to guard the transportation channel of Langya County, in fact, it was announced in disguise that the policy of encircling and suppressing Mengshan was temporarily shelved. Since he didn't suppress the thieves, there was no need for Liang Dezhong to sit in Pengcheng, and he had no intention of exploring the Cui family's secrets, so more things were better than less, so he found an excuse and went to Qian County to inspect the Tongji Canal. I can't hide if I can't be provoked?

Liang Dezhong left Pengcheng, and Cui De was already talking.

Li Fengyun led ten regiments down the mountain, two of which were led by Chen Rui, and directly killed the first line of Fujicheng and Changxi, feigning the main force to contain the main force of Yingyangfu, while the remaining eight regiments directly killed Lanling.

When Peicheng Yingyanglang General Wei Yunyue heard the news, he did not hesitate, and immediately ordered the two regiments guarding Lanling to rush to Changxi to support. The thief army went down the mountain to attack, and the Eagle Yang Mansion naturally gathered the main force to meet it. In addition, there is another reason that cannot be declared, that is, the inherent contradiction between Guanlong and Shandong people. Pengcheng County Cheng Cui De is originally from Shandong, why should I, Guanlong, help you fight? Besides, you Cui De didn't form a local army, you just use the local army to fight.

Lanling is in a hurry. Cui Deben 100,000 urgently summoned Wei Yunyue, the main force of the thieves was attacking Lanling, and asked the Yingyang Mansion to support.

Wei Yunyue replied with a letter, the main force of the Mengshan thieves is attacking the front line of Fujicheng and Changxi, and the troops of our Yingyang Mansion are insufficient, so I ask Juncheng to immediately send a local army to provide support.

Cui Deben was furious, while writing to Liang Dezhong urgently, asking him to return to Pengcheng in a hurry, and at the same time urgently told Lanling, Yingyang Mansion will not support, you are in danger, you are thinking of a way, please stick to it, if you can support it, stick to it, if you can't support it, take your own idea. The implication is that if you should abandon the city and flee, you should flee. In addition, he urgently wrote to Duan Wencao of Lu County and Dou Xuan of Langya County, and implored the two county guards to attack Mengshan from the east and west directions to relieve the danger of Pengcheng.

Lanling fell, and the rebels invaded the city and looted the grain depot, effectively alleviating the food crisis.

Then the rebel army entered Xiapi County, and burned and plundered near Tan County and Liangcheng. Tancheng is the throat road from Jianghuai into Langya County, which makes Linyi panic, 100,000 people urgently told Pengcheng, asking the Xuzhou army to fire to suppress the thieves to ensure the safety of the transportation channel.

When Liang De heard the news, he had to rush to Xiapi County day and night to command the local Yingyang Mansion army to kill the Mengshan bandits.

Liang De urgently wrote to Zhou Fashang, and Duan Wencao, the Taishou of Lu County, and Dou Xuan, the Taishou of Langya County, hoped that the Qilu army could attack Mengshan from the east and west, and then forced the Mengshan thieves to evacuate Xuzhou.

Time flies, and before I know it, it is the end of March of the eighth year of the great cause.

At this moment, bad news came from the front line of the Eastern Crusade. On March 12, Duan Wenzhen, the secretary of the military department and the Xianghou of Beiping, died of illness on the way to the east. Within three months, the three central rulers and the three emperor's ministers died one after another, which was a heavy blow to the emperor and a heavy blow to the morale of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

It was also a big blow to the twelve ladies of the Cui family who were in Pengcheng. Li Fengyun's "crazy words" have been confirmed one after another, this is terrible, although Li Fengyun flatly denied that he was proficient in mathematics, but in fact, this is not important, the important thing is that his predictions have come true. In this way, the Eastern Crusade may really fail, even if it sounds really incredible, and Cui Hongsheng may really have only one year left to live, because once the Eastern Crusade fails, people will definitely need to take responsibility and be the scapegoat of the emperor and the center, Cui Hongsheng, as one of the commanders of the Eastern Crusade army, should naturally bear the responsibility for failure, even if it is reasonable to cut off his head.

Cui Hongsheng's importance to the Boling Cui clan is self-evident, and his sudden death will definitely bring irreparable losses to the Boling Cui clan, especially in politics, and will definitely bring huge shocks to the Shandong aristocratic group, and the consequences will be extremely severe.

The love of the twelve ladies of the Cui family was out of control, and she ignored the persuasion of Cui Jiu and Cui Deben, and also disregarded the dignity and face of the wealthy family, and resolutely flew to Lanling to find the white prisoner in person.

At this moment, Li Fengyun is not in Lanling, but in Nancheng, an important town at the southern foot of Mengshan, and the main force under his command has also withdrawn from Mengshan from the area of Tan County and Liangcheng in Xiapi, and is flying towards the territory of Lu County, and the righteous army can no longer be seen in Lanling City.

Xu Shiyun rushed to Mengshan and caught up with Li Fengyun in Nancheng.

"The Twelve Ladies are in Lanling, and she is eager to see you."

Li Fengyun shook his hand without thinking, "A certain person is about to kill Benlu County, and he has no time to visit the Cui family." ”

"Brother, Duan Wenzhen, the secretary of the Ministry of War, died of illness on March 12 on the way to the Eastern Expedition. Brother's prophecy was very accurate. This is the reason why the twelve ladies rushed to Lanling to find you regardless of a qiē. ”

Li Fengyun smiled and shook his head, "If you go back and sue her, no one can save her family." If the destiny of heaven is like this, how can manpower change it? ”

"Since Brother can judge life and death, he has the power to change the destiny of heaven." Xu Shiyun said with anticipation, "If Brother Elder reaches out at this moment, the Cui family will repay Brother a thousand times." Don't miss the opportunity. ”

"Are you a god?" Li Fengyun scoffed, "If you have the power to change the destiny of heaven, how can you fall to the situation you are in today?" Do you think someone likes to be a thief and kill? ”

Xu Shiyun was dumbfounded.
