Chen Rui's secret letter was delivered to the Juping front.

Li Fengyun was very happy after reading it, and he was proud that he was lucky enough to win Cui's cooperation after going to Mengshan, but he was not happy anymore. Standing in front of the map and thinking about it, it is impossible to jump out of the trap of the official army.

Chen Rui made it very clear in his letter that the food crisis in Mengshan was getting worse day by day, and if the army withdrew to Mengshan, the food crisis would explode immediately, the army would immediately collapse, and the already fragile alliance would immediately fall apart, so the army must not withdraw to Mengshan, and it would also do its best to attack the plain area centered on the Bianqiu to loot the grain.

This is only a short-term worry, but also a long-term concern. Mengshan has limited arable land and low output, so it cannot feed many people. Last year, there was a flood in the north and south of the river, and this year it may be a great drought, coupled with the rise of heroes from all walks of life, burning and killing and looting everywhere, the population affected by the disaster has increased sharply, the corpses are all over the field, the barren fields are innumerable, and the harvest has decreased sharply, and the plunder is purely a move of killing chickens and eggs, exhausting the water and fishing, you have plundered the private warehouses of the rich today, the official warehouses of the government and the righteous warehouses of the townships, what about tomorrow? Tomorrow, the population will drop sharply, the fields will not be harvested, and the rich people in the government will have nothing to eat, where will you get food? Therefore, the rebel army not only had to plunder, but also occupied the territory to obtain arable land, and also had to collect the disaster victims and displaced people to ensure that the land was cultivated, only in this way could the army have food to eat, and then they could talk about growth and development, otherwise they would not talk about anything, and they would try their best every day to find a way to feed their stomachs.

It is difficult for Li Fengyun to solve both near-term and long-term worries. It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, to solve these problems, it depends on the army, but Li Fengyun's cangtou army is limited, and although the total number of alliance troops is as many as six or seven thousand people, but all the heroes have their own interests, the reason why they come together at present is completely forced by the severity of the shape, once the shape is good, the alliance will be difficult to maintain, the internal contradictions will explode, everyone wants to be the boss, and in the end it can only be torn apart.

All kinds of problems are entangled, contradictions, conflicts, long-term worries, and near-term worries are intertwined, which makes Li Fengyun have a splitting headache and feel extremely bad.

Yuan An saw that Li Fengyun's face was cloudy, and knew that he was hesitant, and he was the same, facing a complicated situation, he didn't know where to start.

"Ming Gong, in your opinion, where should the trap of the official army be set?" Yuan An asked nervously.

Li Fengyun became the "alliance leader" of the righteous army, his status was high, his prestige was great, and his subordinates changed his title to him, and it was inappropriate to call him a general, so he consciously changed his name to Ming Gong to show respect.

"We want food, and we will fight wherever there is more food, so where there is a grain depot, it may be a trap." Li Fengyun pointed to Ningyang City on the east bank of the river on the map, "Ningyang Water 6 has convenient transportation, and it is the largest grain hoarding place in Lu County except for the flawed hills, and there are many cellars. Defective Hill is the capital of Lu County, the city is tall and strong, there are many eagles, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and although Ningyang is also an important town, the number of defenders is very limited, we rely on the advantage of a large number of people, fully prepared, fight fiercely, and are completely sure to take it, so the target of a certain attack is Ningyang. ”

Yuan An's eyes lit up, "Since Ming Gong has guessed where the trap is, he should be able to find a way out of danger." ”

Li Fengyun shook his head again and again, "We jumped into the trap, surrounded by officials and soldiers on all sides, there is no possibility of escape, unless we ......"

"Unless what?" Yuan An asked.

Li Fengyun pondered for a long time and asked in a low voice, "In your opinion, the current opponents who are directly hindering our development and growth are Zhang Xutuo or Duan Wencao?" ”

"Of course, it's Duan Wencao." Yuan An replied without hesitation, "The situation in Qi County and even in the entire Ludong is far worse than the situation in southwest Lu, and it is directly related to whether the sailors can cross the sea and expedition as scheduled, so Zhang Xutuo is too busy to take care of himself and can't take care of Lu County at all." The reason why he went south to Lu County this time, his real target was still Ludong Zhuxiong, he tried to use the Qi army to go south to lure the scattered Ludong Zhuxiong into Qi County, only to wait for Zuo Junxing and others to gather on both sides of the Jishui River, Zhang Xutuo will inevitably return to Qi County day and night. But Meng Rang, Zuo Junxing and other Ludong Zhuxiong are not mediocre people, Zhang Xutuo's strategy may not work, once Zhang Xutuo fails to hit the opponent hard, Ludong Zhuxiong once again turned into zero, burning and killing and plundering the chaotic situation, then Zhang Xutuo will be in trouble, and the Donglai Navy Division and even the Eastern Capital will exert heavy pressure on it. Zhang Xutuo had no choice but to fight in the east and west, exhausted. From this, it can be foreseen that before the end of the Eastern Crusade, it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Xutuo to go south again to join forces with Duan Wencao to flank us. ”

"At present, we urgently need food, especially the fertile land of the Great Plains, otherwise we will not have the next meal, what can we talk about? In this battle, if we can deal a heavy blow to Duan Wencao and occupy a large area of land on both sides of Wenshui, Zhushui and even Surabaya, we will not only be able to solve the current food crisis, but also solve the future food crisis. It's just ......" Yuan An shook his head in frustration, "The current battle situation is very unfavorable for me, and in the face of Zhang Xutuo and Duan Wencao's joint attack, we are extremely passive and have no chance of winning." ”

Li Fengyun frowned slightly, and asked again, "Whether Zhang Xutuo wins or defeats this battle, will he evacuate Lu County in a hurry?" ”

"Of course, there is no doubt about that." Yuan An said, "Once Meng Rang, Zuo Junxing and others confuse Qi County, they will inevitably drag Zhang Xutuo and his Qi army, which will inevitably lead to the lack of rebellion in the entire Ludong army, and the heroes such as Guo Fangpre in Beihai, Gao Mi's Xie Xiang and Zuo Xiaoyou in Donglai will take the opportunity to show up, and the Zhuying Yang army in the right Houfu is currently the main task of ensuring that the sailor completes the preliminary preparations for the expedition, so they are all deployed in Langya and the transportation pass directly to the sailor's camp, and they will not bear the heavy task of fighting the rebellion for the time being." It can be inferred from this that Zhang Xutuo is in a hurry to fight a decisive battle and will leave after the fight. The victory or defeat on the battlefield of Lu County is not important to him, the important thing is that he must stabilize Qi County, as long as Qi County is stable, the Qi army can form a deterrent to the Ludong region, and he can free up his hands to attack any of the rebels in Ludong. ”

Li Fengyun thought thoughtfully, "In other words, if we want Zhang Xutuo to leave Lu County, we must attack as much as possible." ”

Yuan An smiled bitterly, "Ming Gong, with our current strength, we can't even resist Duan Wencao, let alone resist the joint attack of Zhang Xutuo and Duan Wencao, so in desperation, we know that there is a trap in front of us, so we can only sacrifice ourselves and jump down." ”

"Can't bear the child can't trap the wolf?" Li Fengyun laughed at himself.

"We don't lack people, we lack food." Yuan An sighed, "If we can sacrifice some people, let Zhang Xutuo win the battle, and let him leave as much as possible, so that we can face Duan Wencao and an opponent, the situation will inevitably improve." The lesser of two evils, as long as the situation is improved and conducive to our survival, the price is still worth it. Besides, today's alliance is very fragile, and the reason why the heroes from all walks of life are attached to the Ming Gong account is not because they respect the Ming Gong, but because they are forced to do it as a last resort due to the encirclement and suppression of the official army. The collapse of the alliance is not only a loss of strength for Ming Gong, but also a blow to prestige, and the consequences of the collapse of prestige are very severe, which may deal a fatal blow to Mengshan, and our own team may also fall apart. ”

Li Fengyun looked at Yuan An, who was worried, and suddenly laughed.

Yuan An was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized.

In fact, Li Fengyun has already thought of countermeasures, but it is difficult to speak. Unless what? Unless some people are allowed to throw themselves into the net and sacrifice their lives to become benevolent, so that they can not only "send" Zhang Xutuo away, but also kill people with a knife, and use Zhang Xutuo's knife to cut off the "arms" of all the heroes, so that their vitality is greatly damaged, and finally have to take refuge in Li Fengyun, and Li Fengyun easily alleviated the internal and external crises according to this plan, after Zhang Xutuo left, he could immediately integrate the forces of the alliance, quickly gather the righteous army from all walks of life, and everyone worked together to launch a fierce attack on Duan Wencao and the Lu army, expand the territory, and show strength.

"Ming Gong, this plan is good, but it is extremely risky." Yuan An was quite worried, "The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the heroes of all walks of life are selfish, and they will not rush to the front to charge, and it must be our cangtou army that really confronts the official army, and once our army is in trouble, it is difficult to get the support of friendly troops, and the consequences are worrying." ”

Li Fengyun smiled and showed a cunning look, "If you are Zhang Xutuo, you want to win a battle, but you want to preserve your own strength, then are you willing to go head-to-head with my powerful Cangtou Army and lose both, or are you looking for an opportunity to eat the Jibei Army and the Dongping Army in one bite?" ”

"Of course, it's a master of fishing."

"Since you're going to fight the Fish Belly Division, how do you arrange your troops?"

Yuan An thought for a while and said, "Bait, a certain will throw the bait to cause contradictions and conflicts within the opponent, and then you can find an opportunity to annihilate the enemy." ”

"Good!" Li Fengyun praised, "We anticipate the enemy first, we have already achieved an advantage in the layout, as long as we firmly grasp the details of the changes on the battlefield, we can achieve a 'tacit understanding' with the opponent, with a 'tacit understanding' we will have the initiative, and with the initiative we will be able to advance and retreat without worry." As long as this battle is fought well, we will be able to gain a foothold in southwest Lu, and even if the next shape is not good for us, we can rely on Mengshan to hold on for a long time. ”

Yuan An nodded again and again, "Duke Ming, since you have already made a plan, do you immediately convene all the heroes to discuss the attack strategy?" ”

"No, settle the matter south first." Li Fengyun pointed to the front line of Zou Shan and Pingyang on the map, "Now that Pengcheng's army is stationed here, if Han Yao and Meng Haigong can attack Zou Shan and Pingyang, it will definitely make Duan Wencao and Zhang Xutuo more anxious for a decisive battle." The Pengcheng army is here to help, and Cui Deben and Lanling Xiao will not pay a heavy price to help Duan Wencao, so if Han Yao and Meng Haigong can form an alliance and join hands to attack the front line of Zou Shan and Pingyang in the east and west, and form a north-south offensive with us on the battlefield in Lujun, the battle situation will inevitably be tense, not only Zhang Xutuo is eager for a decisive battle, but Duan Wencao will also be anxious for a decisive battle. The opponent is in a hurry, and we are not in a hurry, and this battle will be easy to fight. ”

"Good!" Yuan An was full of admiration, and arched his hand and said, "I will write a book and urgently tell Han Changshi." ”
