Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Tan Mingxiao is still the county magistrate of Wuling County, responsible for the county's affairs, and Yu Chenghui temporarily serves as the county magistrate of Qingyuan County. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!)

As soon as he stabilized the two cities, Li Rupei received information that the army of Shannan Xidao was about to attack Wuling County.

Strictly speaking, the scouts are not only responsible for the investigation of military intelligence, but also the affairs of Shannan West Road, Shannan East Road, and even Chang'ansheng in the capital, they must be informed in a timely manner, and the reconnaissance tasks related to the scouts were personally arranged by Li Rupei, and the scouts of one hundred and sixty people, of which 50 are distributed in Xiangyang, Liangzhou, Bazhou and other places, to collect intelligence from various levels, and after these information is fed back, they will be reported immediately. And all the decisions that Li Rupei needs to make depend largely on whether the intelligence is accurate.

Now the main direction of scout reconnaissance is in two aspects, one is what movement there is in Liangzhou, what measures will Lu Yanhong take to recover Wuling County and Qingyuan County, this kind of movement is not only in terms of the army, but also in terms of what actions the government has, and the second is what is the military situation in the direction of Xiangyang, how much impact will the attack of the Huangchao army have, what kind of defensive measures will be taken after Wang Duo retreats to Xiangyang, and how Liu Jurong and Cao Quanyang will meet the enemy.

Although Li Rupei is well aware of the exhibition of history, he is sure that there will be changes, he can cross it, who knows whether history will change, and what is written in the history books is an approximate situation, and accurate information still needs to be grasped and analyzed by himself.

On the whole, what Li Rupei needs is a comprehensive intelligence network, and such an intelligence network will have a decisive impact on his future development path; in ancient times, when communication conditions were extremely backward, being able to obtain sufficient information and intelligence was tantamount to grasping the opportunity and grasping the initiative.

Money can make ghosts grind, and if you want to obtain truly valuable information, it is impossible without the support of money, so in terms of intelligence investigation, Li Rupei is willing to invest money.

Gao Chibang, Huang Biao, Song Hu and Zhao Laibao and others came to the wing room of the county government, and at the same time, Yu Chenghui and Tan Mingxiao, Huang Biao and others still have great respect for readers, so the atmosphere in the wing room is still good.

Yu Chenghui and Tan Mingxiao participated in such a discussion for the first time, and since they had made the decision to join Li Rupei, they needed to go all out and show their abilities, otherwise they would be ashamed of their trust in Li Rupei.

It is still Yan Fu to report all the circumstances detected.

These situations include those in Liangzhou, Xiangyang and other places.

The focus of everyone's attention is on three things, the first is that Dewey led 10,000 soldiers to attack Wuling County, and it was Lu Yanhong's staff Qian Shiqu who assisted Dewey, Qian Shiqu was appointed as a military advisor and specialized in giving advice, the second is that Lu Yanhong personally led 15,000 soldiers to reinforce Xiangyang, and the Jiedu envoy personally dispatched, which shows the severity of the situation in Xiangyang, and the third is that the thieves led by Huang Chao are currently stationed in Jiangling and can attack Jingmen at any time, once Huang Chao occupies Jingmen, Xiangyang will be dangerous.

Listening to Yan Fu's report, Yu Chenghui and Tan Mingxiao had mixed feelings, and they couldn't imagine that Li Rupei had less than 3,000 people under his command, living in Wuling and Qingyuan, which were remote in Shannan West Road, but they could grasp so much information, which showed that their vision was far-sighted enough.

After Yan Fu finished reporting, Li Rupei quickly spoke.

"Lu Yanhong led a large army to reinforce Xiangyang, and Huang Chao is preparing to attack Xiangyang, there is no need to discuss it for the time being, you just know it in your hearts, the most important thing at present is to grasp the situation of Du Wei leading 10,000 officers and troops, what kind of person is this Qian Shiqu, how can he be appointed as a military advisor."

As soon as Li Rupei's words fell, Tan Mingxiao spoke.

"This Qian Shiqu, a certain know, a native of Liangzhou, has some fame in the local area, after Lu Yanhong served as the envoy of Shannan West Road, he was strongly invited to be a staff member, Qian Shiqu participated in the imperial examination many times, failed to high school, wrote a lot of articles, and also had some comments on the current situation, which is quite convincing."

"What Tan Mingfu means, this Qian Shiqu still has a certain ability."

"Indeed, I once talked to him, and Qian Shiqu's cognitive ability is very good, and he also has unique insights into analyzing problems."

Li Rupei glanced at Tan Mingxiao carefully, he always felt that Tan Mingxiao's background was not simple, imagine that under such a chaotic situation, Wuling County can be governed in an orderly manner, this is not an ordinary ability, since Tan Mingxiao looks up to Qian Shiqu so highly, it shows that Qian Shiqu is really capable.

Tan Mingxiao's words were not finished yet.

"Li Lang, a certain request to persuade Qian Shiqu, a certain person still has a certain relationship with Qian Shiqu, I believe that he can talk about Qian Shiqu."

But Li Rupei did not agree to Tan Mingxiao's request.

"Tan Mingfu's consideration is very good, if you can really recruit Qian Shiqu, the Iron Blood Army will inevitably be like a tiger, but to do anything, you need to have a certain premise, Yu Yuanwai and Tan Ming Mansion are insightful, didn't I say it before, the Iron Blood Army is less than 3,000 soldiers, and it can't occupy two remote places in Wuling County and Qingyuan County, with this kind of strength, thinking about directly recruiting talents, I'm afraid it's wishful thinking, Tan Mingfu is better not to take risks."

Speaking of this, Li Rupei changed the topic.

"Tan Mingfu seems to have some friendship with Qian Shiqu, and he just had some questions, and asked Tan Mingfu to solve his doubts, since Lu Yanhong has such an outstanding staff member around him, why don't he let go of the important task, if he listens to the advice of the staff, why not make trouble to the current situation."

Li Rupei's question is very meaningful, ostensibly to ask about Qian Shiqu's situation, but in fact, he is also preliminarily exploring Tan Mingxiao's previous matters.

Tan Mingxiao paused slightly and spoke calmly.

"Because Qian Shiqu has a certain ability, he must not hide his words and deeds, and his posture is quite high-profile, Lu Yanhong is from the army, and he may not be able to fully understand Qian Shiqu's construction, in this case, Qian Shiqu is difficult to be reused, and it is a little strange to be able to temporarily serve as a military advisor this time."

"I see, Lu Yanhong originally relied on Yang Fuguang to have today's status, this time he wanted to climb Tian Lingzi and Ma Tengyun, this kind of character of stepping on two boats, a certain is really not worth it, although based on the court, must be sleek and sophisticated, otherwise it will not be able to gain a foothold, Lu Yanhong is afraid that he also has a last resort, but Yang Fuguang is full of contradictions between Tian Lingzi, Lu Yanhong should be very clear, there must be a minimum bottom line to be a man, what things should be done and what should not be done, there must be a scale in his heart, If you do anything, you will come out of your own interests, and you will lose your principles, just like the woman who is a watery poplar, how to serve the public, how to create a great cause. ”

"Lu Yanhong's character, if he can respect people of insight and absorb correct opinions, it would really be a strange thing."

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Li Rupei's face.

Dewey led an army of 10,000 to crusade, this time he came prepared, well prepared, less than 3,000 iron-blooded army sergeants were facing great pressure and danger, and when discussing how to face the battle, Li Rupei was able to laugh, and it was difficult to be sure again.

Song Hu was more direct, saw Li Rupei smile, and spoke without thinking.

"Did Li Lang think of some clever plan, a certain brain case has to be broken, and he can't think of any good way."

Huang Biao, who had never been smiling, looked at Song Hu and spoke slightly teasingly.

"Captain Song, don't think about it too much, if you want to break your braincase, you won't be able to go into battle and fight, it's not cost-effective."

There was a burst of laughter all around, and Song Hu didn't care.

"I can't think of any good schemes, where Li Lang points to, I will kill him."

Li Rupei didn't care about Song Hu's interjection, and watched Tan Mingxiao and Yu Chenghui speak.

"Outside the staff, Tan Mingfu, a certain thought of a possibility, Lu Yanhong is born in the army, the so-called close to Zhu is red and close to the ink is black, Lu Yanhong's trusted henchman, temperament and temperament should be roughly the same as it, Dewey is a tooth general, is Lu Yanhong's most trusted henchman, this time he was ordered to go on the expedition, one to think about the shame, the second to think about the complete extermination of the iron-blooded army, and the third is not willing to live up to Lu Yanhong's high hopes, it must be aggressive, even regardless of a qiē, but Qian Shiqu is different, as a staff member, Any decision must be made after a calm analysis, and suddenly become a military advisor, it is even more cautious, although the purpose of the two is the same, the way to deal with the problem is completely different, in this case, the cooperation between the two, will it be so harmonious. ”

After Li Rupei finished speaking, Yu Chenghui, who had not spoken, immediately spoke.

"What Li Lang said is very reasonable, Dewey is the commander, Qian Shiqu is the military advisor, if the two disagree, it will inevitably have a lot of impact on the actions of the army, and even make the officers below at a loss, this is a rare opportunity, grasp it well, the iron-blooded army will be able to break the enemy."

Li Rupei smiled, and his confidence and domineering were suddenly revealed.

"Even if Dewey and Qian Shiqu cooperate tacitly, they will not be afraid, but the soldiers are treacherous, since there may be infighting between Dewey and Qian Shiqu, then the iron-blooded army must make good use of it, and the best combat deployment is to exchange the greatest victory at the minimum price, the iron-blooded army has occupied Wuling County and Qingyuan County for a short time, but it cannot be limited to two cities, once the iron-blooded army defeats the official army that came to conquer, it must seize the opportunity to attack and occupy Bazhou, and even if Lu Yanhong returns to Liangzhou, it is also powerless, Wangyang sighed, Bazhou has nine counties under its jurisdiction, more than 30,000 households, more than 120,000 people, it is a good place to exhibit, the Iron Blood Army must have a stable territory, the energy of the imperial court is mainly to deal with Huang Chao, and the Iron Blood Army will not notice it for the time being, and when they can really free their hands, I am afraid that there will be no chance. ”
