Chapter Seventy-Two: Upper, Middle and Lower
"Don't you see us discussing military affairs? Who is so short-sighted, I want to come to see you at this time! ”
One of the generals of the Sui army was very dissatisfied with the news of the soldier, but Qin Qiong stopped him and said to the soldier: "What kind of person is here, and why do you want to see me?" ”
This person came directly to ask to see him, and at this time, there must be something to find him, he speculated, this person either came to him for help, or came to help him, the former is better to say, the latter is very important. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The soldier replied, "General Qiyu, he didn't explain his identity, only said that he was here to solve the general's problems!" ”
Qin Qiong raised his eyebrows, sure enough, he was here to help him, which reminded him of something before, so he immediately said to the soldier: "Okay, you invite him in quickly, no, I'll invite him personally!" ”
Luo Cheng saw that Qin Shubao's face was shining, there was a look in his eyes, and he was very happy, he was a little puzzled in his heart, and asked, "Cousin, who is here here, why are you so happy?" ”
Qin Shubao explained with a smile: "Ah Cheng, you have only been here for a long time, you may not know the reason for this, a few months ago, when General Zhang led his troops to meet Li Mi, someone once sent him two letters, asking him to be careful, General Zhang didn't know who the person who sent the letter was, only knew that it was a letter written by a person named Liu Zhi, and Liu Zhi he didn't know, so he didn't pay too much attention to it, and the ensuing battle was exactly the same as Liu Zhi's prediction, General Zhang lightly advanced the enemy and fell into Li Mi's ambush, This is the end of the army. ”
Luo Cheng nodded, Zhang Xutuo is a famous fierce general of the Great Sui, when he was alive, even his father Luo Yi was full of praise for him, after Zhang Xutuo's death, Luo Yi also sighed, saying that one of the pillars of the Great Sui fell, so he still has some understanding of Zhang Xutuo's affairs.
It's just that he doesn't know what this matter has to do with the people who are asking to see him outside the door right now.
Qin Qiong saw the doubt in his eyes and explained: "The person who wrote the letter that day, Liu Zhi, we investigated and learned that he was the same Liu Zhi who assisted Yang Tong, the king of Yue, to defend Luoyang, and after he left Luoyang, there was a Langya Pavilion in the world. ”
Luo Cheng exclaimed: "Cousin means that the Langya Pavilion was founded by this Liu Zhi?" ”
Qin Qiong nodded and said: "Although this matter has not been confirmed, I am ninety percent sure in my heart, since the people outside the door say that they are here to help us, then it is very likely that it is this Liu Zhi, that is, the pavilion master of Langya Pavilion!" ”
Several people hurriedly walked out, only to see two people standing at the door, one of them was about 20 years old, wearing a white dress, waving a folding fan in his hand, and a white jade belt wrapped around his waist.
And in addition to this young man, there was a servant beside him, and the servant was much more quaint in dress.
"In Xia Qin Qiong, Qin Shubao, thank you Gongzi for coming to help!"
Although Qin Qiong had always believed that it was the Langya Pavilion Master who came to help him, but when Liu Zhi appeared in front of him, he couldn't believe it, the person in front of him looked too young, such a young person, could it be the Langya Pavilion Master who had a city in his chest and knew everything in the world?
"General Qin is polite!"
Liu Zhi glanced at Qin Qiong, bowed slightly, saluted him and Luo Shixin and Luo Cheng behind him, and said, "Under Liu Zhi, I came to the door today to help the general get out of trouble!" ”
Qin Qiong was a little sure in his heart, this person was really Liu Zhi, and listening to his words, he had indeed made a special trip to help him.
"Mr. Liu, please, we haven't had time to repay Mr. Liu's kindness in the past, and I am really ashamed to bother Mr. today."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of asking for help, and motioned for Liu Zhi to enter the mansion.
This is Zhang Xutuo's general's mansion, and after Zhang Xutuo's death, it became the place where the Sui army deliberated.
Liu Zhi was also not polite, and walked in surrounded by everyone, and after a few people came to the mansion and sat down, Qin Qiong said: "Mr. Liu used to warn General Zhang, but unfortunately General Zhang did not understand what Mr. meant, which led to the defeat and death, and now our situation is even more dangerous than at the beginning, I don't know what Mr. has to teach us?" ”
"There are no tricks, but there are a few ideas, if you are interested, I can tell you!"
Liu Zhi took a look at Zhang Xutuo's general's mansion, the area of this mansion is not large, and the layout inside is also very simple, it seems to have been built in a hurry, thinking that Zhang Xutuo himself is honest and selfless, and his own money has been used to sympathize with the soldiers who died in battle, so he has always lived in poverty, and he can build a palace like a city, but I am afraid that it is not his own money.
"Sir, please speak!"
Qin Qiong turned a blind eye to Liu Zhi's modesty, he believed that Liu Zhi was the pavilion master of Langya Pavilion, so he must have a way to help him get out of the current predicament, so he was also very eager to speak to Liu Zhi.
"I have three strategies, let's just talk about it with you first!"
"I won't talk about the best policy first, let's talk about the next policy first, Dou Jiande sent troops this time, although it is known as a 150,000 army, but there are less than 50,000 soldiers who can fight, and the remaining 100,000 people are only afraid that even the weapons and equipment are not complete, no matter how many people there are, it is useless, so if a few generals don't want to go, we can stay in Licheng and take advantage of the geographical advantages and people to deal with them, if we do this, our chances of winning are only about thirty percent, and once we fail, we may not be able to protect our lives as generals!"
Liu Zhi's eyes were very sharp, he swept the three of them, and saw that the three of them were frowning, obviously they had no intention of resisting to the death, so his strategy, the three of them would never consider it.
"Sir, tell me about the middle strategy!"
After listening to Liu Zhi's strategy, Qin Qiong denied this strategy, so he asked.
"Well, I'll talk about the middle way of speaking. When Dou Jiande sent troops to Shandong, he actually dispatched 300,000 people, of which 150,000 troops attacked Shandong, and the other 150,000 troops were deployed in the south of Hebei, close to the edge of Henan. ”
He slowed down and continued: "On the way here, I have already sent people to lobby Li Yuanji of Jinyang City, Li Yuanji has 50,000 people in his hands, and there are many people in his hands, but he lacks a chance to make meritorious contributions, several of his brothers have made meritorious contributions at this time, Li Jiancheng is the prince, Li Shimin is in charge of the main force of the Tang Army, and Li Yuanba is the first master in the world, and he is also the most powerful general under Li Shimin, which is not comparable to him Li Yuanji, so Li Yuanji must be very eager to make contributions in his heart, therefore, Under the persuasion of my people, he will definitely send troops to the east to attack Dou Jiande's nest Hebei, Dou Jiande is an old fox, he will not sit idly by and watch Hebei fall, so he can only withdraw his troops to help, and this army will not be drawn from the army guarding against Li Mi, but will only be drawn from the people and horses attacking Shandong, so that the pressure we are facing will be reduced a lot, and the odds of winning will be improved a lot, and the odds of winning this strategy are more than fifty percent! ”
Fifty percent! Qin Qiong's hearts became eager, and the odds of winning this were much higher than the previous strategy. (To be continued.) )
