Qin Qiong's strategy to break the game is actually very simple, the thirty-six plans are the best, Qi County has become a place of right and wrong, and it can't be stayed, and then leave a dead end, in this case, Yu Crisp leaves, how you like to make trouble, and the upside down has nothing to do with me.
How to go?
Of course, it is to chase the Qilu anti-thieves all the way to the east, Beihai, Gaomi and even Donglai have anti-thieves, Zhang Xutuo led the army all the way to suppress the thieves, and the name is justified, which can not only stabilize the Ludong region, give the Donglai Sailor a safe rear, but also with the help of the Ludong regional government and local nobles, obtain the replenishment of grain and grass weapons, and take the opportunity to recruit brave and brave, collect and surrender prisoners to expand the army, killing two birds with one stone, and more importantly, Zhang Xutuo Ludong suppresses thieves, no one and any force can find fault and can't find a handle, There is no fault.
As for the thieves in Qi County, it was naturally handed over to Yang Lan, the king of Qi. The strength of the King of Qi is strong, and the Donglai Sailor cooperates, and it is easy to suppress the thief, how can such a credit be given to Zhang Xutuo for no reason? So Zhang Xutuo left Qi County and went away to Ludong to suppress thieves, which evolved into a helpless move of "going away" under the persecution and blow of the King of Qi, and under the exclusion and constraints of the sailors, he had to "go away", so that although Zhang Xutuo "abandoned" Qi County in politics is an indisputable fact and will be criticized, but the Holy Lord has long ordered him to be fully responsible for the heavy responsibility of the entire Qilu region, Zhang Xutuo has enough reasons to defend himself, so even if the Eastern Capital is investigated, the responsibility is very light, at most it is a proper decision at the critical moment, the merits and demerits are just offset.
But Zhang Xutuo did not accept Qin Qiong's construction, nor did he object, he needed time to carefully observe the changes in the situation in Qi County, and then make a decision, after all, the consequences of "abandoning" Qi County in politics are very strict, especially in today's situation, it is equivalent to giving Qi County to the King of Qi, which will inevitably anger the Holy Lord and the center, even if Zhang Xutuo has enough reasons to defend himself, but in fact, everyone has a calculation in their hearts, Zhang Xutuo "can't stand it" at the critical moment, afraid of power, greedy for life and afraid of death, and does not dare to "charge into battle" for the Holy Lord, It's useless.
This is the sorrow of the minister, the monarch makes you a scapegoat, you do, you die, there is no benefit; On the contrary, if you don't do it, you will escape from the battle, and you will die, or there will be no benefit. Qin Qiong obviously also thought of Zhang Xutuo's difficulties, so he came up with a rescue measure, that is, to expand the army in Ludong. Qin Qiong's idea is very simple, in this special period when anti-thieves are rampant, if there is an army with strength, there is the capital to settle down, although Zhang Xutuo is a county and a county, it is no exception, if Zhang Xutuo has an army loyal to him, it will inevitably be conducive to him to protect his own interests, but Zhang Xutuo thinks more, in order to reduce the guilt of "abandoning" Qi County to the greatest extent, he must choose the most appropriate time to leave Qi County, otherwise he will either take the initiative to "escape" or passively "escape", give people a handle, and put it into practice.
At midnight on the 16th, Sun Xuanya and Liu Heimin received a secret letter from Hao Xiaode, and the main army was attacked by the Donglai Naval Division in Zhu'a.
When Hao Xiaode sent this letter asking for help, he was collecting deserters on the north bank of Luoshui, but the sailor could chase and kill him at any time, and Zhang Xutuo was eyeing him on the south bank of Luoshui, so Hao Xiaode did not dare to cross the river at all, and could only pray that Sun Xuanya and Liu Heimin would persuade Li Fengyun to ask the alliance army to go north to rescue, otherwise this army, which had no food, no weapons, no morale, and had completely lost its combat effectiveness, could suffer a catastrophe at any time.
Liu Heimin crossed the river again to visit Li Fengyun and asked Li Fengyun for help.
Li Fengyun sighed, although his goal was achieved, the Hebei Righteous Army suffered a heavy blow on the battlefield of Qi County, its strength plummeted, and it would be difficult to recover for a while and a half, which not only gave the alliance enough space and time to cross the river to Hebei and gain a foothold in Hebei, but also gave the alliance the opportunity to merge these rebel teams, but the loss was so great that Li Fengyun sighed. If the Hebei heroes can take into account the overall situation like Liu Heimin, take into account the overall interests of the righteous army, and make the right choice at the critical moment, then this defeat will inevitably be avoided, and the Hebei righteous army and the alliance army will join forces to fight, and they will definitely be able to win enough benefits on the Qilu battlefield, although this will increase the difficulty of the alliance to go north in a certain way, but Li Fengyun is determined to be in northern Xinjiang, and the target is also Daiheng Youyan north of Taihang Mountain, and the conflict of interests with the Hebei righteous army is not fierce, plus the two sides have established trust in fighting side by side, Therefore, Li Fengyun is still sure to achieve his goal, and even has the confidence to pull some heroes into the alliance to fight against the northern captives.
After Li Fengyun convened the officials and commanders of the alliance for urgent consultations, he decided to go north to rescue, and he would personally lead the Tiger Army, Fengyun Army, Hussar Army and the first, second, and third armies of the alliance to cross the river to the north and kill Luoshui. Meng Haigong and LΓΌ Xingxing led the rest of the army to continue to besiege Licheng.
In the early morning of the 17th, Zhang Xutuo received an urgent report that the rafts on the Jishui River were like clouds, and the army of the white thieves was rushing across the river, and the momentum was huge.
Zhang Xutuo was a little surprised, and Pegasus rushed to the river to observe the enemy's situation. Qin Qiong had already arrived first, her brows furrowed, and her expression was heavy. Zhang Xutuo looked at it for a long time and asked, "What is the purpose of the white thief?" β
"A big war is inevitable." Qin Qiong sighed, "No matter what the purpose of the white thief is, the King of Qi will not give us support, this is to kill people with a knife." Only by killing us can he easily take Licheng, and he can also gag Dongdu's mouth and make Dongdu have nothing to say. β
Zhang Xutuo's expression was cold, his eyes were murderous, and he seemed to have the urge to fight to the death with the white thief.
Qin Qiong decisively advised, "The sailor will not go ashore, he will only watch the fire from the other side, and let us fight to the death with the King of Qi, and once we are defeated and dying with the white thief, and lose the strength to march into Ludong, Ming Gong will have no room for maneuver." The implication is that you can only be a scapegoat and wait for death.
Zhang Xutuo weighed it for a long time, and the anger in his eyes finally subsided, "Do you think this is an opportunity?" β
"The army of the white thieves must have evacuated Zhongchuan Shui, the King of Qi is only more than 100 miles away from Licheng, and we are still fighting with the thieves on the north bank of Jishui, although it is only a river away from Licheng, close at hand, but in fact it is far away." Qin Qiong strongly advised, "Duke Ming, don't leave at this time, let alone when."
Zhang Xutuo finally nodded, "You immediately lead the army to attack Linji and defeat the North Sea Pirates." β
"Send a messenger to ask the King of Qi for help, and ask the King of Qi to march into Licheng and destroy the thieves who surround Licheng, and then you can flank the enemy in Queshan from the north and south."
"Send a messenger to ask the sailor for help, and ask the sailor to go through the city and encircle and annihilate the rebels on the north bank of Jishui."
"Try every means to get in touch with Jia Duwei, who is holding Licheng, and tell him that he has decided to abandon Qi County and go to Ludong to suppress thieves. During the period of leaving Qi County, he was granted the right to dispose of it on the spot, and all the affairs of Qi County were handled by him. β
"Pass on a certain order, and all the departments will set up battle formations on the spot to fight a decisive battle with the thieves."
On the morning of the 17th, the alliance army and the official army engaged in a fierce battle at the foot of Queshan Mountain, and both sides sent their main forces to kill the earth. In the afternoon, the battle situation changed abruptly, and the officers and soldiers took the initiative to retreat, and fought and left. Li Fengyun did not hesitate, ordered all the armies to attack, and ordered Zhen Baoche's Huben Army and Cao Kun's Second Army to attack and advance to Linyi, making a detour to the flank of the official army, trying to outflank the official army, and forcing the official army to speed up the withdrawal.
Zhang Xutuo really "hit the plan", no longer fell in love with the war, and the overseers ran wildly.
Li Fengyun ordered the pursuit to be stopped, and Xiahou Zhe's First Army and Yue Gao's Third Army camped on the spot, forming a horn with Zhen Baoche and Cao Kun in the direction of Linyi, in order to prevent Zhang Xutuo from counterattacking.
That night, Li Fengyun and Liu Heimin led their troops to Luoshui, surrounded Luoyin City, and then lit dozens of bonfires in the east and west directions of the city. Soon, the Hebei Rebel scouts, who were hiding on the opposite bank, swam in the water and made contact with the alliance forces.
In the early morning of the 18th, Hao Xiaode, Li Deyi, Du Yanbing, Wang Run and other Hebei heroes rushed to the Luoshui River with more than 10,000 remnants of the defeated army, and crossed the river overnight to meet Li Fengyun.
The Hebei Rebels were saved, but the Beihai Rebels under Linji City were attacked by the official army. Qin Qiong led the army to gallop more than 100 miles to the foot of Linji City, regardless of fatigue, taking advantage of the Beihai Righteous Army while it was still asleep, and launched a sneak attack before dawn. The Beihai rebels were caught off guard and fled in defeat. Fortunately, Qin Qiong's subordinates were also powerless and unable to continue, so they could only watch the North Sea pirates escape.
Knowing that the Beihai Righteous Army was defeated, Zhang Xutuo used his own way to govern his people, and also killed the Righteous Army a "return horse gun", and the Changbai Mountain Righteous Army that was attacking Zhangqiu was shocked, and Wang Bo, Meng Rang and the Zuo brothers immediately evacuated. But this time, Zhang Xutuo was ruthless, and he chased after him relentlessly, and he had the intention of not giving up if he did not uproot the rebels.
Wang Bo was very decisive, and resolutely led the army to turn around and run wildly towards Licheng, hoping for Li Fengyun's support and protection. In the past two years of hard fighting, Wang Bo has seen through, he is a turtle wherever he has no strength, and if he wants to realize his dream, he can only show his strength, and if he wants to show his strength, he must find a backer in the early stage, a big tree that is enough to shelter from the wind and rain, otherwise he will be swallowed up by the storm before he grows up.
Meng Rang ran counter to Wang Bo's ideas. Meng Rang admitted that Li Fengyun's strength was very strong, the first anti-thief in Middle Earth, but the tree was very popular, he was not optimistic about Li Fengyun's future, Li Fengyun's big tree was not reliable, just waiting for the end of the Eastern Crusade, the Holy Lord and the Eastern Capital freed up their hands, and the first one to encircle and suppress was Li Fengyun, so Meng Rang was unwilling to defect to Li Fengyun, but led the army to rush south and fled to Mount Tai.
The Zuo brothers, as always, according to the old method, the enemy advanced and I retreated, and when the official army came, they went to Beihai for temporary refuge. At present, the battlefield of Qi County is complicated, Zhang Xutuo has to deal with the white thieves, and he also has to kill the Hebei thieves, how can he have time to take care of them? However, this time they were wrong, and this mistake cost them dearly.
On the afternoon of the 18th, Li Fengyun, Liu Heimin, Hao Xiaode and others led the army to withdraw to Queshan, and at this time they received the news that Zhen Baoche, the head of the Huben Army, who had stayed on the front line of Linyi to be on guard.
After the scout sent by Zhen Baoche defeated the Beihai Rebels on the Linji battlefield, he crossed the river to Zhangqiu, and then chased after the Changbai Mountain Rebels and went straight to Changbai Mountain.
Li Fengyun and a group of handsome men looked at each other, not knowing what Zhang Xutuo was playing. His battlefield is in Licheng, why is the priority reversed, the cart before the horse, but chased the Changbai Mountain Righteous Army to the east? Is he going to abandon Qi County and run away?
At the same time, Meng Haigong, who stayed on the battlefield in Licheng, also sent news. On the afternoon of the 17th, Li Zixiong, Li Min and his son came to Licheng with thousands of soldiers, but they were "closed" and were turned away by the defenders in the city, but after a night, in the early morning of this day, the city gate was opened, and the defenders in the city took Li Zixiong and Li Min and his son in. In other words, from today onwards, Licheng has actually fallen into the hands of King Qi.
Li Fengyun was puzzled. Licheng changed hands, did Zhang Xutuo deliberately do it and took the initiative to give up, or did the defenders who stayed in Licheng betray Zhang Xutuo and gave Licheng to the King of Qi?
