On April 13, Li Fengyun led the headquarters of the alliance to Kangfu City on the bank of Henggong. Previously, Meng Haigong and Huo Xiaohan had led the main force to enter Gaoping and Fanghe, and joined Han Yao, the chief of the first line of Hehe and Si, and more than 100 miles behind the main camp of the alliance, nearly 100,000 horses of the Hebei Righteous Army were going south through Juyeze, and behind the Hebei people were Wang Bo and Qilu Righteous Army, and Zhen Baoche, Lu Xingxing, Cao Kun and Shan Xiongxin led the army to resist the enemy after the break.

The alliance army attacked Qi County on the eighteenth day of the first month, and it has been nearly three months since then, after several battles, but it has not defeated Zhang Xutuo, nor has it grabbed a piece of territory, and has failed to achieve its pre-war goals, so it can be said that it has gained nothing and returned in vain. And the current situation of the alliance, compared with three months ago, is not only not improving, but is becoming more sinister.

On April 14, Zhai Rang, Bing Yuanzhen, and Wang Ruxin, who had stayed on the front line of Ji and He, were ordered to return to the main camp, where they saw many unfamiliar faces, and what surprised them the most was the rare appearance of the alliance veterans who had been staying in Mengshan, Changshi Chen Rui, the right Sima Xiangtai Wuyang, and Han Shou, the commander of the 14th Army of the Alliance.

Zhai Rang, like all the officials and commanders of the alliance, immediately realized that the situation had changed dramatically, and the alliance would make heavy adjustments or even subversive changes in decision-making.

On the 15th, when the Qilu Righteous Army and the alliance army were striding south along Henggongdu, Wang Bo, Qilu Haoshuai, Zhen Baoche and other alliance commanders were ordered to rush to the main camp to participate in the military meeting.

The military meeting is the largest since the establishment of the alliance, there are important officials of the alliance, the general manager of the five roads and the commander of the 18th army of the internal and external government, the Zuo brothers and Guo Fangpre, Qin Junhong four Qilu marshals, Hao Xiaode, Liu Heimin and other eight Hebei marshals, Shandong Hongru Liu Xuan, a total of more than 40 people, gathered together. From the number of participants, it can be seen that the alliance has grown, the army has increased, and the strength has become stronger, but from another angle, it is two diametrically opposed things, and the alliance has fallen into an unprecedented crisis, which is enough to cause the alliance to die in a food crisis

In the first month of this year, Li Fengyun attacked Qi County with all his might, and united Qilu and Hebei Righteous Army to attack Zhang Xutuo, the purpose was to grab a piece of land in Qilu, so as to obtain a relatively stable income from money and grain, and meet the needs of the alliance to the greatest extent, however, against people's wishes, in the process of entering Qi County in the east, the strength of the alliance team far exceeded everyone's imagination, and the most needed territory of the alliance was not grabbed, which led to the food crisis of the alliance not only failed to solve or ease, but became stricter. There is already a direct threat to the survival of the Alliance.

Everyone is well aware of this crisis, and there is no need for Li Fengyun to elaborate more, the issue that everyone is most concerned about at present is how to resolve the crisis and what countermeasures Li Fengyun has.

Li Fengyun's countermeasure was very simple, the second time he moved to the Central Plains and sacked the Tongji Canal. Considering that the official and military strength of the Qilu region was too strong, and although Xuzhou was rich, it had Qilu in the north and Jiangdu in the south, and the support force was too strong, and as for Henan, because it had been repeatedly calamitized and was too close to Gyeonggi, it was also not suitable for the survival of the alliance, so Li Fengyun decided to give up Mengshan, give up the campaign on the front line of Ji, He, and Si, and find another suitable base area

Standing in front of a huge map, Li Fengyun pointed out two directions of progress, either westward or northward. There are two options for going west, one is to cross the Tongji Canal and enter the Yingru area exhibition, if it doesn't work, then make the second choice, continue to go west and enter the Jingxiang area exhibition, and there are also two options to go north, one is to cross the big river and enter the Hebei exhibition, if not, also make the second choice, continue to go north, cross the Taihang Mountain, and enter the Daihengyan border area exhibition.

Li Fengyun's decision was that according to the current situation of the alliance and the alliance, it was necessary to advance to the Central Plains, first go to the Tongji Canal, first alleviate the food crisis, and wait until the alliance plundered the Tongji Canal, and then make the choice of going north or west.

This is a strategic turnaround, the risk is too great, and the slightest carelessness will wipe out the entire army, so some alliance veterans first questioned whether the current crisis has become so severe that it is necessary to abandon Mengshan? Has it been so strict that it has to make a strategic shift?

Then, Wang Bo and the Qilu heroes, as well as several Qilu alliance heroes, because they were unwilling to leave their homeland and Qilu, who were born and raised in Qilu, and were full of fear and lack of confidence in this extremely risky strategic transfer, they also raised the same question to Li Fengyun.

The heroes of Hebei are anxious to cross the river to the north, and every time they stay in this strange place, there is more danger, and whether they turn to the Central Plains or the strategic transfer to Yingru, Jingxiang and even farther places, it is a lifelong ordeal for them, so they lack motivation, especially lack of self-confidence, so Hao Xiaode and Liu Heimin and others built a yì Li Fengyun, and they did their best to cross the river to the north.

In fact, this is indeed the case, the farther the alliance is from the eastern capital, the safer it is, and the closer it is to the northern border, the greater the alliance's room for maneuver, which is obviously conducive to the survival and development of the alliance.

Li Fengyun neither explained nor commented on these questions, but directly asked a question.

The Alliance currently has about 200,000 soldiers and civilians, is there a better way to save them? Is there a better way to save their lives as much as possible?

This is a very acute question and the root of the current crisis in the Union. If we continue to trap Mengshan in accordance with the wishes of the Qilu marshals, we will definitely be dead under the encirclement and suppression of the officials and troops on all sides, because the alliance is unable to feed 200,000 soldiers and civilians, which is an indisputable fact. If according to the construction of the Hebei heroes, 200,000 soldiers and civilians forcibly crossed the river under the encirclement and interception of the official army, how many people would die? What is the difference between being so careless and disregarding human life and killing demons? The original intention of the heroes to raise the flag to rebel was to save the innocent people, but the people did not save them, but put more people to death, and there were no inhumane souls, how long can such a righteous flag be raised?

The Qilu heroes were speechless, especially the Zuo brothers, Guo Fangpre, and Qin Junhong, who defected to the alliance at the moment of life and death, even sighed secretly, thinking that they would be able to find a big tree to shelter from the wind and rain by taking refuge in the alliance, but they didn't expect that this big tree was also in danger and was about to collapse, and now the alliance itself is difficult to protect, where is the ability to protect 200,000 soldiers and civilians?

The Hebei heroes were also speechless, Li Fengyun's questioning was tantamount to a big slap in the face, completely exposing their ugly faces in broad daylight, and putting innocent people to death for their own survival.

So after Li Fengyun's questioning, the entire Shuai tent fell into silence for a long time, and the atmosphere was very dull

Now the trapped defense is a dead end in Mengshan, and there is a danger of destruction in the Central Plains, which makes the heroes who suffer from gains and losses and doubts at a loss, at a loss, at a loss.

Li Fengyun estimated that the "psychological offensive" was almost over, and the heroes were already "cornered", and they could sacrifice the last magic weapon and settle the situation with one sword.

"The reason why a certain person decided to move to the Central Plains is based on the prediction of the situation in the eastern capital in the next few months."

Li Fengyun began to analyze and deduce the political situation in the Eastern Capital, and solemnly launched the "Eastern Capital Mutiny", so that the desperate and frustrated psychology of the heroes was suddenly vented and released, so that the decision to move to the Central Plains will inevitably be recognized and accepted by them.

Regarding Li Fengyun's prediction of the mutiny in the Eastern Capital, only a very small number of high-level members of the alliance knew about it, so when Li Fengyun told the commanders in a very positive tone that the Eastern Capital would mutiny break out more than two months later, the commanders were shocked. This is good news, too good news to be good, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the alliance to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the fire to rob, and it is also the best opportunity to implement the strategic shift, when the officers and troops are killing each other on the battlefield in the eastern capital, and there is no time to take care of the alliance army, and the alliance not only has plenty of time to plunder on the Tongji Canal, but also has plenty of time to carry out strategic transfers.

The heroes were excited, excited, but there were also people who stayed awake, Liu Heimin was one of them, he waited until Li Fengyun finished speaking, and immediately questioned, is the news reliable? Where does the news come from? Is the Eastern Capital Mutiny a real thing, or is it your guess?

Li Fengyun once again came up with a piece of news that shocked the heroes, "This time the alliance marched west to the Central Plains, and a certain general led the main force to participate in this mutiny and entered the battlefield of the Eastern Capital, striving to maximize the chaos and attract more officers and troops, while the large army of the alliance lurked on the periphery of Gyeonggi and used this mutiny to complete the purpose of the war." ”

The marshals were dumbfounded, and Liu Heimin also asked in surprise, "The general participated in the planning of this mutiny

Li Fengyun smiled meaningfully, "A certain is just an executor." ”

There was silence again in the tent, but the atmosphere was completely different.

It is impossible for Li Fengyun to use such clumsy means to deceive everyone, and it is impossible for him to joke with his authority, reputation, and future. Besides, Li Fengyun's mysterious identity is no longer mysterious among the heroes, everyone has more or less guessed, and since Li Fengyun's rise to the exhibition, there have been many clues along the way, everyone can basically be sure that there is a huge force behind him, which is also the reason why many heroes are willing to follow him and gamble when they are at the end of the road. Now Li Fengyun has publicly revealed such a heavy secret, which is enough to confirm his extraordinary, and it also shows that everyone's previous estimation of him is not far from ten, so after repeated consideration and weighing, the heroes finally decided that Li Fengyun's words were true and credible.

Li Fengyun didn't give the heroes more time to think about it, "Can you agree to move to the Central Plains?" ”

There were no objections.

"Since you have unanimously agreed to move to the Central Plains, then early tomorrow morning, the main force of the alliance will rush westward and kill Tongji Canal."
