Chapter 264: Both Sides of the Strait (Part I)

This was Jin An's arrangement, and it was also their own request.

Holding the bracelet and spinning it around, neither side looking to break the deadlock.

"This is our Royal Highness the Princess?" Tie Shan Wu looked at him with a meaningful smile and asked.

Guan Kuo pressed the bracelet with a "snap", stopped this boring behavior, and set his eyes on him.

"Guess."

Tie Shan smiled and stopped talking, and the atmosphere of stalemate between them still existed.

A long time ago, also in the barracks, in the same tent, apart from them, there were useless, there were also Kolei, and there were other people.

But with the battle in Northern Xinjiang, the shocking changes in the Northern Tang Dynasty, and the dispute between Tang and Wu, there are fewer and fewer people, and from the beginning to the present, there are only two of them.

There may be fewer people in the future, until the two of them no longer exist.

That's the reason for the stalemate.

But the deadlock always has to be broken, and the opportunity to break it is to recognize the present.

"I'll tell you bad news." Tie Shan Wu lay down a little comfortably, and to be honest, he looked like a dead pig or a salted fish now.

"Your Excellency, please speak."

"You know, Li Zenan sent reinforcements led by the forbidden army to kill them."

Guan Kuo nodded.

But the next sentence stunned him.

"The commander is Xue Zhao."

Iron Mountain seems to have a bad smile.

"Isn't it exciting? Isn't it a bit of a surprise? ”

"I heard that after you killed Chang'an, he came to chase and kill you, but he didn't die, he was still alive and well, and now he is leading a large army to fight you."

Guan Kuo was silent for a moment and said, "This is just a mistake. ”

"Mistakes?" Tie Shan sat up without "Teng" and patted him on the shoulder, "That means that your heart is not ruthless enough, and your hands are not black enough to cause this mistake." ”

"It can be seen that you have a lot of experience in the matter of black hands." Guan Kuo couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this guy cutting his new wife and his wife's lover into four pieces.

"And what do you think about this?" Tie Shanwu seemed to be very interested in the story that Guan Kuo and Xue Zhao had to tell.

"Last time it was a mistake, this time, cut him in half." Guan Kuo said calmly.

That calmness seemed to indicate that the storm was coming.

Tie Shan Wu looked at him, knowing that this was not a big deal, but the truth.

If there is a chance, at least Guan Kuo has the opportunity to see Xue Zhao, this guy will definitely try it.

If he could command the troops, then he would definitely do it, but he wouldn't, so the only thing he could do was to carry Qin to kill people.

"Xue Zhao's soldiers and horses, can Jin An withstand it?" Guan Kuo asked.

He knew that after a series of battles, some of Jin'an's soldiers and horses, especially the part he brought from Lin'an, already had strong combat effectiveness, but this did not mean that some others, especially some "rebel armies" who had dreams of losing their hoes and went to fight people had enough combat effectiveness.

And most of the so-called "hundreds of thousands of troops" gathered today are such people.

Now divide the troops and go out, Jiang Tunshui and the others' troops are the main force, and they can attack the Northern Tang Army in the south of the Yangtze River that is in a weak state, and when the time comes, Xue Zhao's army will arrive and have a general battle, how can this be fought?

"Those people have all been diverted," Tie Shan Wudao, "they were assigned to those troops with strong combat effectiveness, and now they are all fighting, before Xue Zhao comes, this is a very good way to practice." ”

Silence, both sides fell into a brief silence, everyone knows that in this changing day, all actions, even some details, will cause serious consequences.

"I'm going to see Jin An, he should have some kind of deployment." After a long time, Tie Shan Wu suddenly broke the silence again and said.

Looking at the back of him leaving, Guan Kuo nodded and shouted: "Tell Jin An, tell him to work hard, and when the time comes, I will help Xue Zhao and the gang of people who protect Xue Zhao!" ”

Tie Shan raised his hand to indicate that he had received it.

……

……

With the arrival of Xue Zhao's army, the large area north of the Yangtze River and south of the Huai River soon came to a halt - firmly in the hands of the Northern Tang people.

There will be no more annoying so-called "rebel armies", and there will be no more local armies of Southern Wu under the leadership of some generals to threaten the various cities.

In a short time, everything was gone.

It would seem, everything is in order, but sane people know - this is just the beginning.

The number of Xue Zhao's army is not too much, the only advantage is that it is all elite forbidden army, their task was originally only to support General Weiyuan, not to replace General Weiyuan, and now that General Weiyuan has been defeated, then they have inexplicably become the latter - to replace General Weiyuan to conquer Southern Wu.

Along the way, Southern Wu's forces in Huainan were defeated, but Xue Zhao knew very well: this was just the appearance, his real opponent had not yet appeared, and he was not even ready to exert his strength.

At the end of July, the army reached the Yangzhou border and stopped.

They showed no signs of attacking, but what was unusual was that Xue Zhao was no longer in the carriage, but was carried by someone and accompanied by the same beauty, constantly observing the terrain all over Yangzhou.

This is puzzling, many people think that with the strength of their forbidden army, even if it is because of the defeat of General Weiyuan, it proves that Jin An is difficult, but they definitely have the courage to compete with the other party, and even if they observe the terrain, Xue Zhao should definitely not be in this Yangzhou boundary, because this is still far from Jin An's large army, could it be that Xue Zhao wants to lead Jin An to Yangzhou to fight? This is simply unreasonable.

Miss Qin also didn't understand these behaviors, and she asked, "Are you going to deploy some tricks in Yangzhou and wait for Jin An to take the trick?" ”

Xue Zhao looked around and whispered to Miss Qin, "No, there are no tricks. ”

Miss Qin frowned and tilted her head, looking very incomprehensible, because she really couldn't figure out what Xue Zhao was doing, because in this way, Xue Zhao's behavior seemed to be a bit excessive.

"The reason why I am observing the topography of Yangzhou in this way is because I am not absolutely sure to defeat Jin'an, and once I lose the battle in Jiangnan, I can still retreat to Yangzhou."

Xue Zhao glanced at her lightly, and calmly admitted that he was not confident in this war, just like victory should be there, and defeat is a matter of course.

Miss Qin looked at him in surprise.

"Jin An, it's not that simple...... Xue Zhao said.
