Chapter 522: The Question of Saving or Not Saving

Baimadu, after Zheng Zhiyuan led the marines of the Navy Division to break through the Baimadu fort, in view of the danger of this place and the importance of controlling the Tuojiang waterway, he rebuilt the fort here and set up a garrison. The garrison of the www.biquge.info of the pen and the pavilion was mainly the general of Liu Yuan, a local powerful man who had surrendered to the Dingzhou naval division in the middle of the war, together with the fort on the White Horse Mountain, a total of 4,000 garrisons, and after Li Qing led the army to attack Shenzhou, he sent 1,000 Dingzhou troops here to strengthen the defense here. The 1,000-year-old Dingzhou Army was led by a Zhenwu lieutenant and was under the command of Liu Yuan.

The 5,000 army has basically reached the size of a battalion of the Dingzhou Army, Liu Yuan was awarded the rank of general, and the army under his command was also named the White Horse Battalion. Dingzhou is powerful, since the Dingzhou army entered Shenzhou, the momentum is like a bamboo, and the battle is victorious, Liu Yuan is quite proud of his decision on the battlefield at that time, he hugged the thigh of Dingzhou, and he will fly Huang Tengda in the future, and Baimadu is now in charge of his own house, compared to the previous look at the face of the Lu generals everywhere, I don't know where to go, although the new Dingzhou Army Zhenwu Captain Jin Chao is a local general in Dingzhou, but under his command, he never thinks that he is a descendant of Dingzhou, and he is also quite respectful of himself, This made Liu Yuan very happy. Although the two armies merged not long ago, but get along quite well, in view of the prestige of the Dingzhou army, Liu Yuan even let Jin Chao preside over the training and reorganization of his original army, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, Liu Yuan knows that in Dingzhou, the generals in the army basically rely on military merits to start, promoted to the level, seeing that Dingzhou has a bright future, he wants to have a great development, then the combat effectiveness of his sons and daughters is very critical, as long as he can fight a few good battles, he is afraid that he will not be promoted.

Liu Yuan, who was hot in his heart, was happy for a few months, and a large basin of cold water was poured on his head, the Bai army rebelled, and the army of Dingzhou Marshal Li Qing fell into a heavy siege, although most of the army broke through, but Li Qing was still besieged, and he did not know whether he was alive or dead. And Shenzhou is now the Zeng-Lu coalition army.

Liu Yuan was terrified, and couldn't help but lament in his heart, why was his life so bitter? The Lu family came, and he took refuge in the Lu family, but the Lu family was immediately defeated by Dingzhou, and he took refuge in Dingzhou, thinking that he would embark on the road of soaring and soaring, but Li Qing was hit by a friendly backhand on the eve of victory, and he was defeated and lost.

What should I do?

Liu Yuan, who suffers from gains and losses, is anxious, and the people in Baima are also panicked, Zhenwu Captain Jin Chao has been anxious since he learned the news, and he has repeatedly asked to lead the army to attack and rescue the marshal, but he has been persuaded by Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan's reason is very sufficient, these five thousand military horses, there is no problem in holding Baimadu, but if you want to go out to rescue the marshal, there are fewer people, it will not help, and you will even be beaten upside down, there are many people, what should I do here in Baimadu? This is a strategic place to control the Tuojiang River, and it must not be lost.

When the news of the annihilation of Jinghai and the two battalions of Zhenliao came, Liu Yuan was also overjoyed, and immediately prepared to lead the army to attack and rescue the commander, but immediately it was reported that the Dingzhou army, which defeated the elite of the Zeng clan, was attacked by the Lu Zeng coalition army and suffered heavy losses.

But today, he had to make a decision. Tang Hu, commander of the Dingzhou Army's personal guard battalion, sent a letter for help, asking Baimadu to send troops to meet the broken army on Baima.

Liu Yuan inquired in detail about the current situation of the Dingzhou army that broke out, and his heart suddenly pulled out the cold, the Dingzhou elite who had been tens of thousands of people and horses now has less than 2,000 people, and there are tens of thousands of pursuers behind him who are traveling day and night, besieging everywhere, if they arrive at Baimadu and go up to Baima Mountain, there is no doubt that the chasing army will immediately launch a wild attack on Baimadu, how can the Baima battalion, which has only a few thousand men and horses, block tens of thousands of enemies, and when the time comes, not to mention the separation of their own heads, the entire family will also lose their lives, but don't you save it? Not to mention that Jin Chao will not agree, just say that just because Li Qing is still in the army in Dingzhou now, and he disobeys the order after it arrives, it is basically tantamount to rebellion, and it will also lose his head.

To go or not to go, this is a question, after comforting the envoy with kind words, and after asking Jin Chao to prepare for the army, Liu Yuan immediately secretly summoned his own clansmen and cronies.

"That's the way it is, let's talk about it, what should I do? Now our decision will affect the life and death of the family, and everyone must be cautious and cautious. Liu Yuan's face was heavy and he looked at everyone.

Liu Jiang stood up, "Big brother, now the form is obvious, Shenzhou will return to the hands of the Zeng family, and the Zeng family and Dingzhou have become enemies, and it is a sea of blood and hatred, we are caught in the middle, it is difficult to have both, if we send troops to take Li Qing Marshal up the mountain, it is undoubtedly to make Baimadu become a place from the arrow, Zeng and Lu have joined forces, with a total of nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses, Li Dashuai is here, they will want to kill him and be willing, they will never give up halfway, dare to be the eldest brother, can we hold it?" If you can't keep it, when Baimadu is lost, it will be when the entire Liu clan will be wiped out. ”

Liu Yuan said heavily: "I also know this, what do you mean?" ”

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Liu Jiang's eyes, "What I mean is that we can rejoin the Zeng family anyway, take advantage of the opportunity of Li Dashuai to let us send troops to rescue this time, take advantage of his unpreparedness, suddenly take down Li Qing, carry Li Qing's head, and surrender to the Zeng family, that is a great achievement!" Can't it be exchanged for a lifetime of wealth? ”

"But there are still a thousand Dingzhou troops in Baimadu?" Liu Yuandao.

Liu Jiang showed a cruel smile on his face, "Big brother, as long as we pay attention, the 1,000 Dingzhou army will be easy to clean up when they are defenseless." ”

Liu Yuan couldn't help but be moved, and looked at everyone, "What do you say?" ”

"Never!" One person jumped out suddenly, "Big brother, Liu Jiang is going to trap my Liu clan to death, if you follow his attention, our Liu clan will be doomed, and he can't figure out such a bad idea." ”

Liu Jiang was furious, "Liu Shan, my idea is not good, now that Li Qing's defeat is decided, we still follow him to the death, that will bring catastrophe to our Liu clan, and the destruction of the clan is just around the corner." ”

Liu Shan ignored Liu Jiang and turned to Liu Yuan, "Big brother, please listen to me and make a decision, okay?" ”

Liu Yuan himself was also indecisive, so he summoned the clansmen to discuss, so he naturally had to listen carefully to all kinds of opinions, "Tell me about it!"

"Big brother, our Liu family, living in Baimadu, when the Lu clan came, we betrayed Zeng and voted for Lu and helped the Lu family fight against the Zeng family, which has greatly offended the Zeng family, big brother, don't remember, before the White Horse Crossing, on the Tuo River, how many Zeng sailors were buried here, how many Zeng ships sank to the bottom of the river, Zeng hated me to the bone, that is needless to say, now we vote for Zeng, even if Zeng is forced to accept us temporarily, will we have a good life in the future?"

Liu Jiang retorted: "At that time, it was forced by the form, helpless, it was the Lu army that sank the Zeng Clan's sailors, and we are just an accomplice, as long as we catch Li Qing, we will be attacked, why not?" ”

"Big brother, when the Zeng family is in trouble, we turn our backs on Zeng and vote for Lu, when the Lu family is defeated, we turn our backs on Lu and vote for Li, when Li Dashuai is in a critical situation, if we turn against the water again, so volatile, how will the world say about us, how can we win the trust of others again, even if the Zeng family accepts us, the saliva will drown us in the future!"

Liu Jiang said angrily: "Even if that's the case, so what, it's better than destroying the family and destroying the clan." ”

"Don't fart!" Liu Shan roared angrily: "Big brother, although Li Dashuai is in a critical state now, don't forget, big brother, the Dingzhou army has invaded Shenzhou, and the momentum is like a bamboo, the so-called elite of the Lu family is vulnerable, on the bank of the Tuojiang River, Jinghai at the bottom of the Zeng family's pressure box, the two battalions of Zhenliao are still completely annihilated by more than 10,000 Dingzhou troops who are under siege with such a good situation and superior forces, and the Jingguan with tens of thousands of heads is still on the side of the Tuojiang River. ”

"So what? At that time, there were still more than 10,000 people in the Dingzhou army, and now how many of them there are, less than 2,000! We have no problem winning this battle if we are unprepared!" Liu Jiang is also red-faced.

"You stupid pig!" Liu Shan scolded mercilessly: "Li Dashuai is invincible in Dingzhou, if it weren't for the rebellion of the Bai clan, how could there be today's difficulties, but I ask you, how many people did Li Dashuai bring to destroy Weizhou and attack Shenzhou, like a bamboo?" ”

Liu Yuan's heart jumped, "The main force led by Li Dashuai is the Changsheng Division, plus a total of 20,000 cavalry from the Bai Red Division. ”

Liu Shan nodded and said: "Big brother is right, the main force led by Li Dashuai is only one division, but big brother, don't forget, there are four main divisions in Dingzhou, and the Changsheng division is only one of them, if Li Dashuai really dies in Shenzhou, what will Dingzhou do?" They will do their best to go to Shenzhou for revenge, dare to ask you, a winning division will defeat Zeng Lu's two armies, if hundreds of thousands of troops in Dingzhou attack together, how will Zeng Lu respond? ”

Liu Yuan was sweating profusely, "You're right. ”

"If it is really as Liu Jiang said, we suddenly attack and kill Li Dashuai, and then we will really die without a place to be buried, I am only afraid that when Dingzhou comes, it will be difficult for us to die. Big brother, you're going to have to pay attention!"

"So what do we do now?" Liu Jiang said: "If you don't kill Li Qing, when Zeng Lu comes, we will also be dead!"

Liu Shan glanced at him contemptuously, "If the eldest husband dies, he will die, so why are you afraid?" Even if we die this time, someone will avenge us, and it will go down in history in the future, not to mention, will we definitely die? The terrain of Baimadu is dangerous, Zeng Lu's coalition army is not the Dingzhou army, he wants to capture Baimadu, hehe, how can it be so easy? ”

Liu Shan's words were opened by Liu Yuanmao, "Liu Shan is right, so it's done, Liu Jiang, inform the whole army, except for one garrison, the rest of the army is ready to attack and respond to the commander!"
