Chapter 2018: To Each His Own Mind

The sixth man was stunned, but Kou Ying sat down next to the sixth child and asked, "Dianshuai passed away, who do you think will take over the power in Liaodong?" ”

"Naturally, these thirty-six horsemen can't let others seize power." Lao Liudao: "If you want to take over the power of the electric marshal, it can only be the eldest brother." ”

Kou Ying bowed his head and said: "Yes, Mo Wuyi naturally thinks the same way, but have you ever thought about the sixth child, once Mo Wuyi takes power, what will happen to us people?" When Dianshuai was here, we were loyal to Dianshuai, and we swore to the death, and we didn't dare to do anything to us, but if he was in power, do you think he would still be able to tolerate us? ”

The sixth brother frowned and said: "What the second brother said is right, he has always had an opinion about us, if he is in power, I am afraid we will not have a good end." ”

"There are many people in this world who share hardships and hardships, but there are very few people who share wealth and prosperity." Kou Ying sneered: "Until now, you still don't understand my hard work? ”

The sixth child is obviously also a smart person, and suddenly realized: "Second brother, are you an excuse to block the enemy and get the military power?" ”

"Without military power, we can only be slaughtered." Kou Ying sighed: "Mo Wuyi is not a soft-hearted person, if we are reduced to fish on the board, he will not show mercy to our subordinates, in this case, of course we can't sit idly by." I left you brothers behind to save your lives! ”

"I see." Lao Liudao: "Now that the main force of the cavalry is in our hands, he naturally has nothing to do." ”

"That's what we have in our hands." Kou Ying sneered: "As long as these soldiers and horses are in their hands, it is still unknown who will belong to Liaodong in the end." ”

"But!" Lao Liuwei was a little worried, "Although we have soldiers and horses in hand, we don't have Liaodong's money and grain as support, how long can this last?" ”

"Don't worry." Kou Ying said with a smile: "We have at least twenty days of food in our hands, twenty days is enough for Mo Wuyi to lead the soldiers and horses to retreat from Yanshan, let's wait for Mo Wuyi to lead the people away, return immediately, and occupy the Fallen Horse City." When Mo Wuyi almost withdrew from Yanshan, we also withdrew our troops immediately, crossed Yanshan, and then theorized with Mo Wuyi to see who was the lord of Liaodong. ”

Only then did the sixth understand Kou Ying's thoughts, and clapped his hands and said: "The second brother is really far-sighted, but during this period of time, we still have to try our best to avoid fighting with them in the face of the Northwest Army." ”

"If the Northwest Army knew that we were bent on retreating, it would definitely take the initiative to attack." Kou Ying said: "But I sent people to send a war letter, so that they think that we have to take the initiative to seek war, so that they will act cautiously and dare not act rashly." Touching his beard, he said: "Anyway, we have 25,000 ironclad soldiers on hand, even if the Northwest Army in Hexi pours out, it may not be our opponent." ”

"If Chu Huan really kills him, then what?"

"If he really kills him, will my Liaodong warriors be afraid of them?" Kou Ying's eyes showed a cold light, "I just don't want to fight with them, but I'm not afraid of fighting with them, if they really don't know the current affairs, I really want to understand Chu Huan's methods." ”

When Kou Ying and Lao Liu were planning a strategy, Mo Wuyi had already taken the lead in leaving the Fallen Horse City and withdrawing his troops in the direction of Yanshan.

The cavalry was all transferred to Kou Ying, and almost all of Mo Wuyi's subordinates were just foot soldiers, walking on foot, and there were many vehicles with heavy baggage, so the speed of walking was naturally not too fast.

The vast land was pale and covered in silver, and wherever the team passed, the snow trampled and crushed the traces of the debut.

Watching the long line stagger, Mo Wuyi seemed to be full of worries.

"Big brother, are you worried about Kou Ying and them?" Beside Mo Wuyi, a subordinate asked softly, this person is also one of the thirty-six horsemen.

The 36 cavalry of Liaodong, in the eyes of outsiders, are all the pro-guards of the red refining electricity, loyal and ironclad, but only the 36 cavalry knows that as early as many years ago, the 36 cavalry has been divided into three factions.

One faction is naturally led by Mo Wuyi, while the other faction is led by Kou Ying, and the other part is to avoid right and wrong, devote themselves to Chi Liandian, and do not get involved in the battle between these two factions.

In fact, most of these two factions are only fighting secretly, but there is no open fighting, at least in the eyes of outsiders, the thirty-six horsemen work together, like a fist.

Mo Wuyi was the first to follow the Red Refining Electricity, and his loyalty to the Red Refining Electric was not suspicious, and he was the oldest among the thirty-six horsemen, so he was the head of the thirty-six horsemen and commanded the Red Preparation Raid.

But when it comes to talent and merit, Kou Ying is not under Mo Wuyi, and even the combat exploits on the battlefield are far above Mo Wuyi, and because of this, Kou Ying is the second of the thirty-six horsemen to be controlled by Mo Wuyi, although he is quite unconvinced, but Mo Wuyi is also afraid of Kou Ying, at the beginning, he was able to focus on brotherhood and be safe, but after many years, the accumulated contradictions have become a knot between the two, and gradually divided the thirty-six horsemen into several factions.

Mo Wuyi and Kou Ying both knew very well in their hearts that as long as the Red Refining Electric was alive, even if there was a conflict, no one would dare to attack, but once the Red Refining Electric was not there, the object of everyone's allegiance disappeared, and the two factions would inevitably break up.

Not only did the two of them know this, but the others in the Thirty-Six Horsemen also understood it.

At this time, it was Mo Wuyi's close brother who was following him, and when he heard his question, Mo Wuyi was thoughtful and did not answer immediately.

"Big brother, you shouldn't have handed over the cavalry to him in the first place." The man lowered his voice and said, "Can't the eldest brother see that he is taking this opportunity to get the military power, how can the eldest brother believe him so easily?" ”

A sneer appeared on Mo Wuyi's lips, and he said, "Do you think I'm worried that he has obtained military power?" ”

"Isn't the eldest brother worried?"

"I'm worried about whether the Liaodong cavalry will be able to retreat." Mo Wuyi sighed: "Chu Huan is a fierce wolf from the northwest, such a character, as long as he has the opportunity, he will never let go, I am only worried that Kou Ying is not his opponent, and I may not be able to retreat with my tens of thousands of Liaodong iron horses." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and Mo Wuyi said lightly: "I don't know what Kou Ying is thinking in his heart, he took the initiative to ask Ying to stay and stop the enemy, but he just wanted to take the cavalry into his hands as the capital to fight with me, if he can't see such thoughts, I have lived in vain for so many years." ”

"Since the eldest brother has seen through his intentions, why?"

"He thought that if he took the cavalry power, he could compete with me, but he really thought too simply." Mo Wuyi said disdainfully: "I gave him the right to fight, just because at the moment, he is indeed the only one who has the ability to block the Northwest Army, compared to the Hexi side, the Liaodong side is more important, we must rush back to Liaodong as soon as possible to stabilize the situation, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." If Kou Ying wants to use the cavalry in his hands to oppose me, it is just wishful thinking, Yanshan is in our hands, control Yanshan, he wants to return to Liaodong, it is simply wishful thinking! ”

"Big brother, what do you mean!"

"As long as you can control Liaodong in your hands and control the power, you can order the cavalry to stay in Hexi first, and let Kou Ying return to Liaodong, if he goes back honestly, he will naturally fall into our hands, but if he disobeys the military order, he will kill himself." Mo Wuyi said: "Blockade Yanshan, he can't go back to Liaodong, he doesn't obey the order, he just wants to rebel, when the news of Dianshuai's death comes again, I really want to know how many people will be willing to follow him to make trouble?" Don't you forget, without Liaodong's money and food, this cavalry won't last long at all, and most of these cavalrymen are Liaodong's children, and their families, wives and children are all in Liaodong, will these people leave their families behind for Kou Ying? ”

When the man heard this, he suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It's still the eldest brother who is far-sighted, and Kou Ying is smart, but he still can't escape the palm of the eldest brother." ”

"I'm not worried about Kou Ying right now, I just hope that these cavalrymen can get out of the way." Mo Wuyi sighed: "If this cavalry really can't retreat with all its body, my Liaodong's strength will definitely suffer a big setback, then it is the main force of my Liaodong army!" His eyes were full of worry, but after all, he said: "Order the whole army, speed up the march, and rush back to Liaodong as soon as possible." ”

Kou Ying went out of Macheng and marched westward, sending scouts to roam around, but blocking the road of the Northwest Army scouts, Chu Huan knew the news of Kou Ying's troops for the first time, but he didn't know that Mo Wuyi had also taken the opportunity to lead his troops to retreat to Yanshan.

Looking at the dim sky, Chu Huan frowned slightly, and Gu Liangchen said on the side: "King, Kou Ying led the army out of battle, and they were all cavalry on their side, and it seemed that they were coming towards Gucheng." There are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses on our side, only half of their soldiers and horses, and the Liaodong army is fierce and good at fighting, which is not easy to deal with. If you want to defend the city, you must prepare as soon as possible, and now you must prepare the equipment for defending the city, and you must also recruit the people in the city to strengthen the city defenses. ”

"There are only some old and sick people in the city, and there are not many young and strong people, even if they are all recruited, what role can they play?" Chu Huan shook his head and said, "And this page has not thought about guarding the city!" ”

"What does the king mean?"

Chu Huan was silent for a while before he said: "General Gu, send someone to continue to find out whether Liaodong is ready to attack on all fronts, and see what tricks they are doing, if it is just cavalry, it will be much easier." ”

"Oh?"

"They control the Fallen Horse City, and it will take several days from the Fallen Horse City to the solid city, if the cavalry goes out of battle, there will definitely be grain and grass troops behind!" Walking back into the house, looking at the topographic map on the table, he stretched out his hand and said, "I am going to send a ranger to go around the rear of the Liaodong cavalry, so that there is no need to contact their cavalry corps, just attack the grain transport team behind him!" ”

"Good idea." Gu Liangchen said: "As long as there is a problem with the grain road, and the people and horses have no food to eat, there will be a big problem, the king, the last general will ask for orders, and the last general will lead this ranger to attack their grain team!" ”

"You're the only one who is the right fit." Chu Huan said with a smile: "But if you want to avoid their scouts and go around to the rear, you have to make a big detour, which is very difficult, and!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, a voice came from outside: "King Qiqi, Rodo asks to see!" ”――
