Because of Yang Hao's words, it touched Zhu Yun's heart. Talking about her life experience, self-pity and self-harm, she suddenly had a whimsical and expressed her desire to serve Yang Hao for the rest of her life. You must know that the maid and maid exclusive to the male owner in this era are half concubines and half maids, and they are different from ordinary maids, Zhu Yun has already expressed his wish to him euphemistically.

After saying this, Zhu Yun was both frightened and shy, and suddenly regretted his abruptness, what if Yang Hao didn't agree? How could there be a face in front of him after that, but...... But...... In case the captain agreed ......, Zhu Yun's heart jumped like a fawn.

I didn't want Yang Hao to hear her words but his eyes lit up, he hurriedly stood up, said something irrelevant to what she wanted to hear, and left.

"Too ...... Wife...... Tai Lieutenant ...... You ......"

Zhu Yun was dumbfounded, she just showed her love a little, and she actually scared Mrs. Yang away? Is it really so unbearable?

Yang Hao pulled out his legs and ran out of the tent, suddenly came back around, poked into the tent, and said with a smile: "Zhuyun, you should rest earlier." The official suddenly remembered a major matter, and he had to do it immediately. The veal smells good, so let's stew it and taste it when I get back. ”

"Oh, it's ......" Zhu Yun immediately showed a happy smile.

Seeing Yang Hao running out of the big tent like a burning butt again, Zhu Yun picked up the spoon, stirred it lightly in the bowl a few times, and scooped up a spoonful of soup. The soup is clear, the beef is bright red, and there is a piece of rǔ white sè wild onion floating in the soup, gently sending the broth into the mouth, and suddenly the mouth is full of fragrant, and Zhu Yun's eyes are bent into a pair of crescents: "Actually...... Not only do people kill people, but they are also very talented in making soups and meals, as long as I am given the opportunity, I will definitely be able to make it even better......"

She scooped another spoonful of fragrant beef broth into her mouth, then lifted her chin and thought to herself, "But...... Did he say yes or not? Or...... Didn't you listen to it at all? ”

Yang Hao left the sleeping tent, walked quickly to the front of the big tent of the Chinese army, suddenly stopped, raised his eyes to look at the morning of the day hanging low in the sky, took a long breath, only felt refreshed and happy.

He cares about chaos, since he knew that something happened in Fuzhou, his heart has been entangled in the pros and cons between going and staying, so he has never been committed. Now Zhu Yun's words woke up the dreamer, and he suddenly realized that when he thought about the response measures to the Fuzhou Rebellion, he was wrong from the most fundamental starting point.

Those who use soldiers are ruthless, and those who plot are unintentional. At this critical moment, he should maintain absolute calm, let himself stand on a higher angle to look down on this crisis, what he needs to do most now is not to consider the gains and losses of one city and one place, not to weigh the pros and cons of leaving and staying, but to consider what measures to take to resolve this unfavorable situation when the opportunity has been lost, reverse the situation that is unfavorable to him, and take the initiative back into his own hands.

Only by grasping the initiative and not letting Zhao Guangyi calculate his actions at every step, then even if he loses for a while, he can gradually change this decline, otherwise, the reaction of every step is in the hands of the other party, and he will only make a wrong step and be led by Zhao Guangyi. At the beginning, Li Guangrui was shocked to hear that Xiazhou had lost and hastily withdrew his troops, which was in his control, but when Li Guangrui fled to the Wuding River, he suddenly set up an ambush to counterattack. If it weren't for the fact that he was extremely wise and escaped from the river in that battle, wouldn't Li Guangrui have turned defeat into victory?

Yang Hao was originally best at finding opportunities in adversity, creating opportunities, and grasping the initiative. Whether it was when he led 50,000 people of the Han State to flee to Fuzhou by attacking the east and the west, or gave Li Jiqian a deadly counter-ambush, or provoked the battle between Tubo, Hui and Xiazhou to contain Xiazhou's development of Luzhou, or was assassinated in the Tang State, or strategized in the Shangjing prison to counter Xiaohou, Mo was in a desperate situation and came back to life.

But this time, he almost messed up, for no other reason, just because his family business is getting bigger and bigger, and the burden is getting heavier and heavier, it turned out that he was barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, and he lost all the big deals, and he was back to being a white ding, so he dared to work hard when he should be desperate, and dared to give up when he should give up, but now he is in the northwest, his power is huge, and he has more shackles in his heart, and his scruples are heavy, far less free and easy than before.

Now because of Zhu Yun's words, Yang Hao's heart has dissipated, and it has suddenly brightened a lot.

This night, the generals who had just fallen asleep were called up by Yang Hao in turn. One by one, they were summoned to the big tent of the Chinese army. Yang Hao held the lamp and candle, talked with them at night, talked to each other one by one, analyzed the current situation, weighed the pros and cons of leaving and staying, studied various response plans, unified everyone's thoughts, and until the day was bright, Yang Hao said that his mouth was dry, but he also communicated with all the important generals, and his whimsical ideas were more mature and perfect in the discussion and debate with everyone.

The sun spewed out from the east silently, and Zhu Yun, who was sleeping on a few cases, was awakened by a rapid drumming, and when he opened his eyes, the sky was bright, and he got up and walked outside the tent to see, and saw that the generals from all walks of life were wearing helmets and armor and hurried to the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhu Yun wondered in his heart: "What happened, the captain didn't seem to sleep all night, and he didn't need breakfast, so he convened the generals to discuss the matter?" ”

"Oops!"

Zhu Yun suddenly remembered the pot of veal, and hurriedly returned to the tent. She thought that Yang Hao said that she would come back after a while, and she originally added firewood to the stove, hoping to stew the beef crispy and fragrant. made a supper for the captain, who wanted to finish adding firewood, and was bored and fell asleep. Zhu Yun hurried to the stove, only to see that the fire under the stove had been extinguished, only the sparks flashed and flashed, and it seemed that it had not been long since it was extinguished.

Lifting the lid of the pot, I saw that the originally clear broth had become cloudy, scooped up a piece of beef and tasted it, and the stew had lost its smooth and delicious feeling, and the taste was a little woody. Zhu Yun looked at the pot of beef with some frustration.

At this moment, two noisy voices reached my ears:

"These fish have to be stewed and eaten, and the soup is stewed into a thick rǔ white sè, and drinking it is the best way to nourish the body."

"It's weird, if you stew the fish in soup and drink it to replenish your body, will eating the whole fish not replenish your body? Gluttonous people love to drink soup, lazy people love to sleep, Zhuyun girl is so greedy for you, if you want me to say, it has to be roasted and eaten, you look at this fish, all of them are palm-size, scrape the scales to make the fire roast, sè Ze is golden, fresh and fragrant, our northwest cuisine sè, pay attention to burning and roasting. Aren't your ancestors from Langya? It's not a Jiangnan person, who loves soup so much. ”

"Nonsense, didn't I think about Miss Zhuyun, such a handsome woman, you asked her to grill the fish to a charred paste, after a fish was gnawed, the handsome appearance was completely ruined, and her face was rubbed like a flower-faced cat, is it beautiful?"

"Huh? Lao Ka, I don't think it's right to hear this, don't you fall in love with someone else's Zhuyun girl? I said that you were fishing in the river early in the morning, and you dared to love it to please the girl of Zhuyun? ”

"Nonsense! Can I use my old card to please women? If I fall in love with someone's girl, as long as I hook my little finger, she will happily get on the sedan chair if she doesn't dress up? Cough! But then again, you say...... If I really mean that, my official position is still worthy of her, right? I heard that she is the handsome Feiyu secret spy, and my old Ka is the dignified Captain of the Suzhou Army Zuo Guoyi......"

The two of them were still far away, but their voices were already loud, and Zhu Yun's ear power was very sè, and she heard these words in her ears. The corners of Zhu Yun's mouth curled, revealing a hint of an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Ahh Bamboo Girl ......"

Capoca and Zhi Fubao walked to the bamboo rhyme tent, and saw that the big girl was standing at the tent mouth vividly, Caboca's black and fat face was actually rare red, and the clear eyes of the bamboo rhyme fell on his hand, there was a red willow branch in Capoca's hand, and three palm-sized white fish were tied to the branch, under the sun, the scales were shining, and the fish gills were still moving, very fresh.

Capoca hurriedly raised the string of fish as if offering a treasure, and said with a smile: "Miss Zhuyun, this is the fish that Lao Ka touched from the river in the morning, thinking that Miss Zhuyun's injury has not healed, send it to the girl to change the taste and replenish the body, this fish is very fresh, and the stewed soup is the best." ”

"Miss Zhuyun, don't listen to him, this fish is the most fragrant to eat, and it is served with a cup of good wine......"

"Don't talk, you didn't catch it." Capoca was furious and glared at his old friend.

Zhu Yun stretched out his hand to take the fish he handed over, and said softly: "General Ka has a heart, Zhu Yun really doesn't know how to thank the general." ”

When Capoca heard her soft voice, his face flushed with excitement, and he rubbed his hands and said, "No thanks, no thanks, hehe, a little meaning, not a tribute." ”

"Ahh Zhu Yun snorted lightly, as if he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I stewed a pot of veal last night, and I couldn't eat it alone, the general was so kind, I gave the broth back to the general." ”

"Ouch, don't dare to be, don't dare to be."

Kaboka excused himself, Zhu Yun couldn't say that he had walked into the tent, the sleeping tent of the eldest girl, Kaboka didn't dare to walk in recklessly, just stretched his neck to look at the tent, and after a while, Zhu Yun came out with a mouthful of clay pots, and smiled before speaking: "General Ka, this is the broth stewed by Zhu Yun himself, it's not hot, the general will take it back and taste it fresh." ”

"Ouch, I'm so embarrassed," Capoca was still pretending to shirk, and Zhi Fubao had already taken the clay pot and hugged it to his chest.

"Woo~~~Woo~~~" The desolate horn sounded, Zhu Yun listened to it and said: "Listen to this horn, isn't there any important military?" ”

Capoca smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, it's the sound of the horn, I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I won't attack the city so early." ”

Zhu Yun smiled: "That's not what I said, the country can't be without a king, the army can't be without a handsome, the two generals are the generals who lead the party, what if there is anything hasty, what if the soldiers can't find the two adults?" Zhu Yun didn't dare to delay the business of the two generals, so please go back. ”

"Uh......, okay, then I'll go back." Kapoka was reluctant, but he didn't want to be looked down on by Zhu Yun, so he turned back step by step.

The two walked away, and Zhu Yun's ears moved, and he heard Capoca say happily: "Hey! You said that Miss Zhuyun gave me meat soup, did you also mean something to me...... Hi! How did you drink it? ”

"Tut-tut, the heat is too old, the soup is not fresh, and the meat is also firewood, how can you eat this?"

"! Are you still paying attention to it? Whoever rushed to eat it for you, this is the meat soup that Miss Zhuyun gave me, bring it to ......"

The two of them snatched it up, Zhu Yun saw it from a distance, and couldn't help laughing "eating", and then hung a look of resentment: "Alas, how can you know the goods but such a black charcoal head?" Could it be that in the eyes of Lord Taiwei, this girl is not a woman? ”

Returning to the tent in a daze, and mentioning the string of fish, Zhu Yun blinked, and suddenly became worried: "Is this fish stewed for him to eat, or is it better to roast it?" ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

After a rather detailed analysis speech, Yang Hao said in a deep voice: "Generals, when you return to the division at this time, it is difficult to save the thirst from far water, and you are galloping all the way, and the soldiers are sleepy and tired, and it is difficult to enter the battle. Moreover, Liangzhou and Suzhou, which we have just recovered, will also be occupied by the Guiyi Army and the Ganzhou Huifu, so that all the previous achievements will be wasted. In addition, the Guiyi Army and the Ganzhou Hui will not miss the opportunity, if they are chased and intercepted all the way, the weight of the loss can be imagined.

Therefore, Ben Shuai decided, he beat him, I beat mine. The defense of the eastern front was handed over to Yang Jiye and Chongfang to be commanded nearby and acted cheaply, and our western expeditionary army adhered to the original plan, and at all costs, it was necessary to seize Guasha and then clean up Ganzhou to ensure that the western front had no worries. Originally, Ben Shuai wanted to wait for the Shazhou incident and the Guazhou army to attack Guazhou when the heart of the Guazhou army was in turmoil, so as to avoid casualties as much as possible, but the change in Fuzhou prompted Ben Shuai to have to act in advance, otherwise once the news reached the ears of the Guiyi army, Cao Yangong would be ashamed, and he would not fall.

Today, our army began to strengthen the offensive, and strive to take Guazhou as quickly as possible, if Shazhou can not be peaceful, then it must be forcibly taken by force, this time the oath to go out, no matter what happens, the Hexi Corridor must be opened! No one or anything can influence our actions or shake our determination! ”

"Muen! Li Huating! ”

"The last general!"

The two generals clasped their fists and came out of the ranks, Yang Hao drew an arrow and shouted: "This commander ordered your two armies to immediately attack Nancheng and cut off the enemy's waterway." ”

"Yes!" The two took the arrow and came out with their fists clenched.

"Liu Shi, Deng Hong!"

"The last general!"

"This commander ordered the two of you to attack the north city separately, the north city is on higher ground, if it cannot be breached, you must also try to attract the defenders in the city and create fighters for Mu En and Li Huating!"

"Yes!"

"Ai Yihai, this commander ordered your troops to continue to feint to attack Xicheng, block the enemy's retreat, and the mobile light cavalry must not move rashly, and wait for news from Shazhou at any time to go to help!"

"The last general obeys!" Ai Yihai took the order and walked out in stride.

"The rest of the generals were dispatched from the commander to attack the eastern city with the commander, and the battalions took turns to fight, using the wheel warfare method, so as not to give the enemy in the city a moment of respite!"

The generals responded violently, and Cháo withdrew from the tent like water, and each of them turned on his horse, and galloped back to his camp with his own soldiers and guards.

Yang Hao picked up four more letters, which he wrote in a hurry after a sleepless night, and shouted: "Dark night! ”

A voice flashed into the tent. Dark Night is not a person, but a group of people, they are a group of people selected from the Flying Feather Secret Spy personally cultivated by Gu Daji and Gu Zhuyun according to the killer standards, and they are calm, witty and intelligent, and martial arts.

Yang Hao said in a deep voice: "These four secret letters must be directly handed over to Xiazhou Seed Release, Linzhou Yang Jiye, Shuzhong Tong Yu and Shangjing Xiaohou, cut it!" ”

"Yes!" The dark feather guard didn't say much, took the secret letter in his arms and turned around and left.

Yang Hao looked at the lonely tent, and then sighed softly.

Xiao Sui is a talented female Chinese and British lord, aside from the personal relationship between the two children, she will not sit idly by and watch Zhao Guangyi occupy the northwest, since Zhao Guangyi has made a move on Fuzhou, Xiao Sui must have a move, there is no doubt about this, but it is public and private, he should still send this letter. It was relatively simple for Chongfang and Yang Jiye to explain that Yang Hao had already made an authorization to allow the two of them to engage in it cheaply depending on the situation.

In Yang Hao's consideration, the Fugu family fell into the hands of Chizhong, Fuzhou was already leaderless, and the Zhejia army had become a plate of scattered sand, and in front of the Zhao Guanjia who had been preparing for a long time, I am afraid that it would not be able to hold it. As soon as Fuzhou is lost, Linzhou is in danger of being lost, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court can follow the ancient road of the Great Wall and kill directly to Linzhou.

The troops on the eastern front are limited, and the strong reinforcement of the Zhejia army has been lost, Yang Jiye is alone, if he defends the city and fights a war of attrition with the imperial court, the consequences are extremely worrying, so he made the worst scenario: if Fuzhou has been lost, he can decisively abandon Linzhou, take Yinzhou and Luzhou as strongholds, and shrink his forces to retreat to Hengshan. In this way, on the one hand, the battle line of the Song army can be lengthened and their logistical burden will be increased, and on the other hand, the dangerous terrain of Hengshan can play the role of a man and a man.

If Fuzhou has been lost, it is only a Linzhou that has lost its strategic role that will be abandoned, but it can buy him enough time to calmly open up the Hexi Corridor, take the five prefectures of Shaguasu, Ganliang, and completely control the entire Hexi in his hands. In this way, take the initiative to abandon Linzhou and concentrate troops to set up the second defense line of Hengshan, which can reverse the lack of troops on the eastern front and be subject to the passive situation of the imperial court's preemptive strike, but in exchange for embracing Hexi, embracing Longyou, overlooking Guanzhong, and relying on the dangerous pass of Hengshan, you can release the Central Plains at any time when the time is right, and then kill back to the two states of Linfu, this deal is a good deal.

At the same time, because Zhao Guangyi showed his hideous minions and began to impatiently use troops against the northwest, it was time for him to play a role in the ambush that he had buried in Shu. Now the leader who controls the 100,000 rebel army in Shu is called Zhao Dezhu, and the leader of No. 2, 3, and 4 has withdrawn from the center of power because the original leader died in battle, or gradually showed his own shortcomings under the suppression of the imperial court.

In the past few years, using Yang Hao's secretly supported financial, material, manpower and information, Tong Yu and Wang Peng, that is, the scimitar Xiaoliu and the iron head, have made outstanding achievements in the Shuzhong Righteous Army, stood out, and have become the second and third people in the Shuzhong Righteous Army. The fourth person was a farmer named Wang Xiaobo, who had just joined the rebels last year, and quickly became the leader of the rebels because of his bravery, righteousness, and repeated military exploits, and his great talent for war.

Because of the more and more frequent military operations of the Shu government to suppress the rebel army in the past two years, Zhao Dezhu lacked confidence after suffering several defeats, and began to retreat to the areas of Bazhou, Wenchuan, and Weizhou in Shuzhong. However, the shrinkage in this corner also limited the development of the rebel army and its influence in Shu, and the shortage of ordnance, grain and grass gradually became scarce.

Because Pan Mei was ordered to sweep the south of the Yangtze River at that time, the Jiangnan rebels who had not become a climate were swept away, and could not echo Shuzhong, Yang Hao did not interfere with the righteous army's westward retreat to Qingcheng Mountain, and kept in touch with Xiaoliu, and often secretly informed him of the news that a large number of grains, grasses and ordnance had accumulated in the cities that he had explored, so that if the righteous army had divine help, there would always be gains in every battle, and when the grain and grass could not be helped, Li Tingfeng would also arrange a "grain merchant" and take the initiative to wait for him to rob, so that this team could survive.

Raise thousands of troops, use soldiers for a while, and now is the time to use this army. Yang Hao instructed in the secret letter that it was appropriate to persuade Xiaoliu and Tietou to persuade Zhao Dezhu to lead the army to the place, go north out of Jizong Pass, attack Maozhou, Long'an, Brazil, Mianzhu and other places, or go south out of Taoguan, attack Pengzhou, Shuzhou, Gongzhou, Meizhou, if necessary, the troops will come to the city of Chengdu, and beat Zhao Guangyi well, once Shuzhong is shaken, the pressure on Hexi can be reduced.

Moreover, although the number of the rebels is large, claiming to have an army of 100,000, it is a rabble, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled can only stand guard, and can only wave the flag and shout to raise the seedlings. This team will not be able to be used much in the future.

However, the big boss of this rebel army is Zhao Dezhu, the shopkeeper of Zhao who opened the salt well, this person is more than murderous, lack of strategy, and has always been arbitrary, it is difficult to predict whether he can be obedient, so Yang Hao secretly instructed Scimitar Xiaoliu in the letter, if he can't control him, then get rid of him, and completely control this rebel army in his own hands. Whether Xiao Liu can complete his mission, he is also worried.

Standing silently, pondering for a long time, Yang Hao finally felt a little hungry, then he remembered the pot of veal stewed in Zhuyun, and was about to go over to eat a bowl, when he heard the roar of the war drums, the siege battle started again, Yang Hao was shocked, reached out and took off the big drums draped on the handsome chair, and said in a loud voice: "Come here, supervise the battle with this handsome battle!" ”

Zhu Yun finally decided to grill the fish to eat, remove the scales of the fish, remove the internal organs, clean it, and then make a fire under the stove, set up the fish skewers and grill them carefully, the curtain was lifted to facilitate the smoking, the sunlight shone obliquely from the tent mouth, shining on the fish skewers, with the heat of baking, the fish gradually showed a golden face, a drop of fish oil dripping into the fire, burning loudly.

Zhu Yun couldn't help but smile when she saw it, and praised herself complacently: "I really have the talent to make spoons and treat food." ”

At this moment, the war drums rumbled, and the people outside shouted and neighed, and there was a commotion.

Zhu Yun was surprised, and hurriedly raised the fish roe rack, left the fire, and then got up and walked out of the tent, only to see that the officers and soldiers of each battalion were hurriedly mobilized, and a group of 100 ordnance soldiers pushed huge siege equipment, shouting the trumpet step by step towards Guazhou City; Thousands of soldiers dressed in military uniforms in Xiazhou, Liangzhou, and Suzhou rushed out of the camp with great vigour, leading camels carrying cyclone cannons and pulling carts of stone cannons. There were also large bed crossbows carried by four people, more than two hundred of them, and the arrows as thick as spears slanted upwards shone in the sun. The archer carried a box of arrows and trotted forward......

Judging from this scene, it was a powerful offensive that had never been used during the siege of the city two days ago, and Zhu Yun hurriedly stopped a captain who was hurrying by and asked, "The siege started so early today?" Don't the three armies have to eat? ”

The lieutenant shouted loudly: "The commander has an order, all the armies will take turns to attack the city, so as not to give the defenders in the city a moment to breathe, and if they want to eat, they must also come in turn." ”

"Drive! Drive! Make way and make way, don't stop General Ben from returning to the camp! ”

Ai Yihai held the reins in one hand, his arms were open, and he carried a big knife at his waist, shouting very arrogantly, while leading his more than 100 guards who were born from horse bandits, riding his horse and whipping very gracefully, galloping past, stirring up yellow sand behind the horse's buttocks.

"Huh~~" with a sound, the mighty wind came to the face, rolling up the dust and sand raised by the war horse, like a sandstorm, Zhu Yun covered his eyes with his hands, and when the gust of wind and sand rolled over and opened his eyes to look again, the captain had run away and didn't know where to go, Zhu Yunyao snorted, and scolded: "This Ai Yihai, acting in a style, how can he still look like a horse bandit......"

She shook her head disapprovingly, turned back and walked back to the tent, and after a moment she heard an angry scream coming from the tent: "My fish! Ai Yihai! ”

In the same morning, the ancient city of Dunhuang was also busy.

The majestic Qilian Mountain in the south, the vast Lop Nur in the west, the rugged and serpentine Beisai Mountain in the north, the Sanwei Mountain with the abrupt peaks and rocks in the east, and the middle is Dunhuang, Shazhou, the base camp of the Guiyi Army.

There are nine major families in Dunhuang, Shazhou, they are the local clans produced in the specific land of Dunhuang, among which the family with the longest historical origin can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, since the Han Dynasty, they have been eunuchs in Shazhou for generations, and they have naturally formed a strong family power, just like the camel thorns with developed roots, firmly controlling this desert oasis, monopolizing the political and economic lifeline of the Dunhuang area in the long years.

These nine clans are Zhang, Suo, Cao, Yīn, Li, Bian, Yan, An, and Linghu.

Early in the morning, the "heads" of the major families in Dunhuang were invited by the Zhang family, the Zhang family is more than eighty years old, and the old man Zhang Chengxian, who has not asked about the world for a long time, suddenly sprinkled a post, inviting the heads of all families to come to the house to gather, this face, who can not give?
