"My lord, the 20,000 troops ambushed on the Qingliang border have indeed been attacked, and only half of them have returned to Huai County after the defeat.... Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Leli said again.

Pang Yi squinted his eyes slightly, waved his hand and said, "You go down." ”

"No." Leli exited the main hall.

Pang Yi's face was extremely ugly, he was still invigorating just now, but now...

Coming to the seat and sitting down, Pang Yi glanced at Jiang Yiyuan from time to time. However, Jiang Yiyuan always held the wine, as if he hadn't seen it.

After a while, Pang Yi calmed down and said with a smile: "It's still the military advisor who is prescient, the battle situation is often unexpected, I didn't expect Wei Ning to be so deep, it is indeed not to be underestimated." ”

"Well, I promise you; Don't go to war with Wei Ning yet! ”

Jiang Yiyuan smiled: "The Lord is Mingjian; Under his will, not only will we not attack Wei Ning, but we should also help Wei Ning, otherwise he will still not be able to hold on to Qingliang for too long. In order to resist our Huai County, Wei Ning has transferred the troops from all over Qingliang back to the county seat, and Ling Feng drove straight in, and Wei Ning could not hold it for a long time. ”

Pang Yi smiled: "Okay, then everything is up to the military advisor; There are military advisors, Wei Ning, Ling Feng, etc., all of whom are waiting to be slaughtered. ”

Jiang Yiyuan wanted this sentence, drank all the wine in the wine bottle, Jiang Yiyuan stood up, and said, "That subordinate has resigned." ”

"Well, go ahead."

........

After Jiang Yiyuan left, the smile on Pang Yi's face stiffened, in fact, he didn't like to put power in Jiang Yiyuan's hands, even if he knew that Jiang Yiyuan was loyal, he was not used to it; At the beginning of the uprising, it was a helpless action, but now that it has hundreds of thousands of troops, how can it not be a little guarded.

Originally, I thought that if he could take this opportunity to eliminate Wei Ning, then he could establish prestige, especially among those recruits, he could have absolute prestige, which was very important for a master.

But I didn't expect that before the plan started, most of the 20,000 elites who had been painstakingly selected were injured, and I didn't need to think about it to know that the attack on Qingliang could not be carried out, Wei Ning was already vigilant, and it was not a day's work to capture Qingliang County.

Thinking about it, Pang Yi took a deep breath... Let's take one step at a time, maybe patience is the best way to deal with it, this is what he thinks at the moment.

............

Du Yuan's army was defeated, and Ling Feng already knew about it from Xiao Anzi; However, he didn't expect Jiang Yiyuan to return to Huaijun County at this time.

Jiang Yiyuan's return is undoubtedly like a mountain in people's hearts.

However, no matter what, the plan to attack Qingliang County would not change, and on the day that Jiang Yiyuan returned to Huai County, Ling Feng issued several orders in a row.

First, Liao Yun returned to Pingxing to stand by, and he was not allowed to go out of Pingxing again without an order, otherwise he would be dismissed from the army!

It's a dead order; Ling Feng was also really worried about Jiang Yiyuan, so he said such serious things in the order, estimating that since then, even if Liao Yun had the courage to go out of Pingxing again, as long as Pingxing was unhindered, Chu County would be unhindered, and Ling Feng's army could rest assured that he would fight.

Second, Zhang Ming led all the family's private soldiers, went out of Wushan and entered the Qingliang territory, and directly killed the county seat of Qingliang County!

When they got this order, Zhang Ming and Zhu Ru were directly dumbfounded, where is this war, it is simply suicide! More than 40,000 garbage recruits actually entered Qingliang County alone, and they also went towards the enemy's most important city, and they didn't need to think about it to know that they would definitely be attacked by the enemy's madness.

But worry is worry, but the order must be carried out; After receiving the order, the two of them immediately set off, slowly walked out of Wushan, and headed towards the cool realm. Because of the fear of Wei Ning, the speed of the two is very slow, it can be said that they stop when they meet the mountains and rivers, and in general, they are careful and careful...

Ling Feng didn't say anything about it, as long as he was executing orders, he didn't care about the speed.

Third, there are Liu Qing and Yu Qinglong on the front line of the Yangtze River, Yu Qinglong returned to Longtan to continue training and developing the navy; Liu Qing led more than 10,000 soldiers up the river and entered the Qingliang territory from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, as for the task, of course, it was to occupy the city; Now there are not too many garrisons in Qingliang counties, so although Liu Qing only has more than 10,000 soldiers now, it is enough to attack the city.

Fourth, Han Yong led his headquarters to garrison the place and confronted the 50,000 enemy troops in Mushan County.

Fifth, Ling Feng himself led the remaining men and horses around Mu Mountain and directly entered the cool hinterland.

To detour from the front of Mushan to the side or even the rear, it is actually very simple, there is no need to open the road, and there is no enemy to block it, but the distance is a little farther, and it will reach the flank by bypassing a few mountains, and the current garrison of Mushan County does not have the strength to send troops to block the attack.

The above five points are Ling Feng's next strategy, and they are also being implemented.

.........

Time flies quickly, half a month later.

Imperial capital.

Early morning.

Du Yuan retreated to camp outside the imperial capital, entered the imperial capital alone, and entered the palace.

Half a year ago, he led an army of 400,000 to fight in Kaiyuan and Surabaya, and fought for several months, first confronting Jiang Yiyuan, and then fighting fiercely in Kaiyuan, and Han Ziyu, Bai Ku and others had a big battle; However, most of his 400,000 troops were recruits, let alone attacking Surabaya, and even dealing with the newly rising Bai Ku was a little difficult; However, it was because of Han Ziyu that the last battle was Han Ziyu's plan, so he was defeated.

However, when it comes to withdrawing the imperial capital, the reason is not only because of the defeat in the last battle, but also the main reason!

Du Yuan received news from the imperial capital that the emperor was critically ill!

This is a very shocking news, when he had not yet set out on the expedition, Du Yuan inquired, the emperor seemed to have a disease, always coughing up blood, at the beginning the emperor was still hidden, but who is Du Yuan, there are many people in the palace, especially after Qin Huai left, he is even more unscrupulous, and those fathers-in-law and palace maids in the palace will pass all kinds of information to him. For example, the emperor coughed up blood, which was passed on to him by a father-in-law.

Now that half a year has passed, Du Yuan can't help but think that if the emperor is really critically ill, is it possible...

He didn't dare to think about the rest of the matter, if the emperor died, then the establishment of a new monarch would be the top priority; Instead of consuming troops in Kaiyuan and anti-thieves, it is better to return to the imperial capital as soon as possible; Whether the Twelve Princes can become kings is directly related to his future glory and wealth, which is more important than building a career on the battlefield.

After the battle with Bai Ku, Du Yuan still had more than 60,000 troops left, and now all of them are stationed outside the imperial capital, in addition, there are also 100,000 people outside the Surabaya Pass who have not participated in the war, and he has also transferred them back; In total, Du Yuan still has about 160,000 people in his hands.

Entering the palace, Du Yuan went directly to the emperor's bedroom, saying that he was visiting, but in fact, he wanted to explore the truth and see if the emperor was really critically ill.

Outside the dormitory, Du Yuan stood there with his hands on his back.

After a while, a father-in-law came out of it and said, "General Du, the emperor is summoning General Yang, I'm afraid I won't have the time to summon you, you..." ”

"Wait, General Yang, you mean Yang Xiong?"

Du Yuan asked in surprise.

The father-in-law nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

"Hmph. Then how can I be left behind? Move. Du Yuan snorted coldly, lifted his father-in-law and strode inside.

There were also soldiers standing guard along the road, but no one stopped Du Yuan.

Du Yuan strode forward, and it didn't take long to come to a large hall, and as soon as he raised his head, Du Yuan vaguely saw Yang Xiong's figure.

Yang Xiong is back!

In the court, in addition to Qin Huai, he was most afraid of Yang Xiong, and now Qin Huai is gone, only Yang Xiong is left; When the emperor returned to the imperial capital when he was critically ill, Du Yuan didn't have to think about it to know that Yang Xiong must also have the intention of establishing a new monarch, but the new monarch that Yang Xiong helped was not the twelve princes, but the seven princes!

The emperor suddenly became critically ill, which seemed difficult to believe to outsiders, but insiders like Du Yuan and Yang Xiong didn't feel strange at all, otherwise Yang Xiong was fighting bravely in the western Xinjiang, and it was a critical moment to come back to preside over the overall situation.

In fact, Yang Xiong's meaning is the same as Du Yuan, no matter how important the battle outside is, it is not as important as the struggle for power!

Du Yuan straightened his clothes and walked forward step by step, and when he came to the door of the main hall, he was stopped by several royal forest soldiers; Du Yuan didn't break in again this time, but poked his head out and looked inside carefully.

Above the golden hall sat a man with a slightly pale face, dressed in a dragon robe and rarely majestic, who was it not the emperor; And under the left hand, there was a general in black armor, Du Yuan was also very familiar with it, that was Yang Xiong.

Yang Xiong looked at the emperor without blinking, even when he was drinking, he didn't forget to look at the emperor a few times; He was a little unsure, was the emperor really critically ill? He looked like the emperor was not sick, could it be pretended? Of course, Yang Xiong also thought of this possibility, but he was still uncertain.

At this time, Yang Xiong's eyes were on one side, and he happened to see Du Yuan standing outside the main hall, he was startled at first, and then reported the scene he saw to the emperor.

The emperor frowned, there was one in the hall who didn't send him away, and he didn't think that another one came outside. (To be continued.) )
