Chu Liuyan shook his head very firmly and said, "I don't think so." Sometimes, even if they want to fight, they may not be able to fight it. Both the marshal and the gentleman should know that this is such a small state city, and the periphery is surrounded by mountains, and it may be difficult to accommodate more than 100,000 soldiers to fight. ”

Chu Liuyan's words woke up the person in the dream, which made Zhu Yuanzhang a little worried, and he said: "What Liuyan girl said is very right. This is indeed too small, and it is not so easy to fight a war. If Sun Deya and Guo Zixing don't fight, then what should we do? ”

When all the soldiers listened to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, their faces became gloomy. If the time comes, the two of them don't fight, won't it be the one who suffers, and it will become Zhu Yuanzhang's side?

Chu Liuyan's eyes showed a look of worry: "If they really don't fight, then they can only watch it later." ”

Sun Deya and Guo Zixing's army soon arrived outside the city of Hezhou. Zhu Yuanzhang and the soldiers were very restless. He specially sent Zhou Dexing and Chang Yuchun to inquire about the news. Not long after, Chang Yuchun ran in and shouted, "It's a fight, it's a fight!" Marshal, good news! Guo Zixing and Sun Deya fought, and I heard that the fight was very intense. ”

Sure enough, soon, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others also heard the sound of blades outside the city in the city. He and the soldiers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. And Chu Liuyan still had a worried face. Zhu Yuanzhang saw it at a glance and couldn't help asking: "Smoke girl, obviously now that the two sides have already fought, why are you still sullen?" ”

Chu Liuyan replied: "Marshal, they just came to the outside of the city, and they immediately started fighting. I don't think any of them have carefully scouted the terrain outside the city, and I'm afraid this battle won't last long. When they discover the terrain, it will soon be over. If they had been prepared, they would not have been so hasty. ”

Less than two hours after Chu Liuyan's words were finished, Zhou Dexing ran in with a sad face and said, "Marshal, Guo Zixing and Zhou Dexing originally fought. But I don't know why, they don't fight now. Marshal, look at this, what should I do? ”

Suddenly, everyone swept their eyes to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Li Shanchang first and asked, "I don't know what Mr. has any opinions?" ”

When Li Shanchang saw Zhu Yuanzhang ask himself first, he was immediately a little flattered and said: "Marshal, since this is the case, I think we should spread some news and provoke Guo Zixing and Sun Deya to fight again." ”

"Good strategy!" Zhu Yuanzhang praised: "Since this is the case, let's do what Mr. says." ”

Chu Liuyan stood up and said, "Marshal, don't!" Marshal, please think about it, the two armies are not fighting now, not because the contradictions are not deep, but because of geographical reasons. This is not something that can be solved by spreading a few rumors. What rumors can compare to the hatred of Sun Deya's imprisonment and burning of Guo Zixing, and Guo Zixing was driven out of Bozhou City by Sun Deya? However, even though there is such a deep hatred, the two sides still do not fight, which shows that it is because of the limitation of geographical conditions. ”

"Hmmm! What Liuyan said is also very reasonable. A few rumors, compared with the hatred in my heart, are really nothing. In that case, what do you think about the smoke? ”

"As far as I can see, it would be better to open the door and let them in. The purpose of their trip is only food. As long as we have enough food for the soldiers and civilians of the city and for our 1,000 soldiers, it is okay to give the rest to them. Chu Liuyan said.

"What? Want to send food to Guo Zixing and Sun Deya? Chang Yuchun jumped up, "I'm always the first to disagree!" How can you be cheap with those white-eyed wolves! ”

"Brother Chang, listen to me. They are all here for food, and if we don't open the gates, do you think they will attack on their own? When the time comes, not only will there be no food, but even the people of the city and our soldiers will suffer innocently. Rather than that, we give them what they want and send them away. Chu Liuyan analyzed, "In this way, we can still save enough food for our own use." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed deeply, and said helplessly: "I didn't expect that I, Zhu Yuanzhang, would do something to open the door and steal today!" However, the idea of flowing smoke is indeed the only way now. Tiande, Yuchun, Lanyu, Tanghe, the four of you take people to hurry up and hide the grain. As fast as you want. Liuyan, Mr. Shanchang, you follow me to welcome Guo Zixing and Sun Deya into the city! ”

"Yes!" They all agreed. So, each to do his own thing.

After Xu Da and the four of them collected the military rations, Zhu Yuanzhang also welcomed Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and their men into the city. Sure enough, as soon as the armies of these two families entered the city, they went around looting the grain and looted the grain. Fortunately, Chu Liuyan had the foresight to hide enough food.

Zhu Yuanzhang first provided the residence of Sun Deya and Guo Zixing, and then, following Chu Liuyan's suggestion, at the right time, asked Sun Deya to come out to negotiate.

On this day, when it was time for negotiations, the weather was slightly gloomy. After Sun Deya came to Zhu Yuanzhang's handsome tent, he and Zhu Yuanzhang decided to sit face to face across the table, although Sun Deya was not used to Guo Zixing, but he still had a good impression of Zhu Yuanzhang.

So after the two of them sat down, Sun Deya spoke: "General Zhu, you are one of the few characters I can still look at in the martial arts. In Sun's view, the general is not a thing in the pool, and with the general's great talent, although he is still subordinate to others at the moment, he will definitely be able to get ahead in the future. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was also extremely happy when he heard Sun Deya say this, but Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Sun Deya said these words, it was very likely that he was pouring rice soup on himself, if he just listened to Sun Deya's words, it was very likely to fall into the trap set by Sun Deya. So Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly wary and said: "General Sun is too polite, Yuanzhang just has a benevolent heart in his heart, and when he encounters things, he is just impartial." ”

"A good one just has a heart of righteousness in his heart, and he is just and righteous. So let me ask you, although I am a guest general, I don't need him Guo Zixing to operate here for a long time, but have I done anything wrong, why does Guo Zixing have to trouble me everywhere. Since you are upright. So why only listen to Guo Zixing, but not me. ”

"General Sun, there cannot be two masters in the country, and the same is true in the army. If the country has two masters, it will inevitably lead to many doors, and when the subjects are not the same, it will be very bad. This is especially true in the army, the military aircraft is fleeting, if the military orders are not the same, the orders are not uniform, then it will inevitably be ignorant of the military aircraft, so it is bound to be taken by the enemy, at that time, it is not the lives of one or two people who are buried, but the lives of so many brothers are to be compensated. ”

"So, do you mean that you want Sun to hand over the military power of the army commander to Guo Zixing?" Sun Deya said with some negative anger: "Then what am I staying here for?" ”

"On this point, I have a suggestion to the general, I hope the general will make arrangements as soon as possible, then General Guo will not leave General Sun in trouble." Zhu Yuanzhang said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang say that he already had a suggestion, this Sun Deya was extremely curious, his eyes rolled around, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with any clue, so he said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Oh, what ideas and arrangements do you have, it's better to say it and let me hear it, if I think it's appropriate, then I'll listen to you this time." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and said: "Since General Sun is here with people, then please ask General Sun to take people away." For the sake of the general, if the general continues to stay here, I am afraid that his actions in the future will also be hindered by others, so it is better to simply leave this place of right and wrong with his troops, and set up another mountain, without being bound by the situation here, wouldn't it be more painful. ”

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's suggestion, Sun Deya thought about it carefully, and felt that Zhu Yuanzhang's words were not without the end, although staying here has its advantages, but the harm is even worse. At present, there is already a battle of will with Guo Zi, and he has something to live in, if Guo Zixing wants to help Zhu Yuanzhang, he can only lose both sides depending on the situation. If you don't turn back as soon as possible, you will inevitably give Guo Zixing a rake, and at that time, it will not be easy for you to get out of it.

So Sun Deya agreed with Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion in his heart, Sun Deya smiled and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "If someone else in the army mentions these words to me, I will definitely not listen to them." But you Zhu Yuanzhang is different, Sun has always admired your virtue and tolerance. Last time, Zhu Yuanzhang was able to repay his grievances with virtue and give up his 30,000 elite soldiers to Guo Zixing, but Sun couldn't do this at all, so Sun was still very convinced of you. This time, I will listen to you, and I will not fight with this Guo Zixing for that Laoshizi's things, and tomorrow I will lead my team out of this place of right and wrong. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was also extremely happy when he saw that Sun Deya had adopted his own suggestion, and he could finally avoid a battle in the same room in the army. He stood up and hugged his fist at Sun Deya and said: "Since General Sun's mind is broken, I don't know when I will be able to see the general this time, Zhu Yuanzhang will bow out of the city tomorrow to send the general off." ”

Sun Deya said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Then there is General Lao." ”
