"At present, it is only known that about 20,000 people of the Huaiyou Army marched along the east bank of the river to Qi County, and it is said that Jiang Feng personally led the army under the observation and disposal of Huaiyou. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" to make it concise and clear.

"Come on, get the map! In addition, go and invite Xiao Sima and Xu to join the army. The stocky man took a deep breath, "Twenty thousand people, how many people is Yao Chengtai stationed in Qi County? What about Fuli? What about Tongqiao? What are the plans of Monk Shi Yu?"

From the words of the stocky man, you can hear some clues, he called him by his name when he was the envoy of the probation army, but he called Shang Yunxi Shang Shuai, and Yao Chengtai was also called by his name.

The map was quickly retrieved, and the soldiers surnamed Sima and Xu also arrived quickly to reintroduce the current situation.

The stocky man's gaze had been wandering the map, and now he no longer had the drunken haze he had before, replaced by a fierce and burning gaze.

"It is impossible for 20,000 people to take Xuzhou, the combat effectiveness of the Huaiyou Army is at most similar to that of the Reform Army, or it is slightly better, but Shi Yu's Ya Army and Yao Chengtai also have some combat effectiveness of the army, Jiang Feng can't be so arrogant!" Xiao surnamed Sima looked puzzled, "With such a big fanfare, isn't this openly telling the Huaibei side? How could Jiang Feng be so stupid?!"

"But the army going north can't hide people's eyes after all. The stocky man added, but then said: "But Jiang Feng can't be so simple, he must have a hand to ambush." ”

"Well, Jiang Feng has always been happy with surprise soldiers, Qi Zheng is compatible, these 20,000 people are just positive, but where will the strange soldiers be?"

The envoy was obviously Shang Yunxi's confidant, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded and said: "Some time ago, Huaiyou did come to contact Shang Shuai a few times, but Shang Shuai never expressed his position, and then the people from Huaiyou's side never came again. ”

"Have you ever been in contact with the commanders and deputy envoys of the armies under your Shang Shuai, and even the battalion commanders?"

Huaibei has not been in a good situation in recent years, and the situation of all armies and departments is unbearable, if Huaiyou uses the buying technique, coupled with the promise of heavy profits, it is difficult to say whether there are any people who are tempted, once the water is turned back at the critical moment, it will really be fatal.

Lai made him hesitate, this question is not easy to answer, but before coming again, Shang Shuai specifically told him to answer the question on Da Liang's side as objectively and truthfully as possible, but this question is indeed too sensitive to say, and he really doesn't know.

"This ......" hesitated for a moment, and then said with some uncertainty: "My marshal is still relatively strict in this regard, but because the armies were stationed in Xiao County and Pengcheng before, the marshal may not be able to know everything." ”

"As for the situation of other armies, I mean the contact and even bribery of Huaiyou, I'm afraid I don't know much about it, right?"

"It's really not clear. "This question is really not something he can know, and it is rare to know the situation in his own army.

After asking a few more questions, the stocky man sent the envoy away, and there were only three people left in the flower hall.

The eyes of Sima surnamed Xiao were always on the map, and he didn't ask much, until he came and left, and Sima surnamed Xiao said in a deep voice: "Shang Yunxi wants us to send troops to intervene in Xuzhou?"

"That's probably what it means, this letter is full of fanciful, saying that he is willing to be a pawn of the horse, a pioneer for the beam, and dedicate Xuzhou to the beam. The stocky man casually handed the letter to Sima surnamed Xiao.

Sima surnamed Xiao looked at it briefly, then handed it to the surname Xu to join the army, and shook his head: "This is a chestnut in the fire, the wise man does not do it, we don't have the strength to intervene in the war in Xuzhou." ”

"But if Jiang Feng gets Xuzhou, I'm afraid it's not in the interests of Daliang, right?" said the stocky man insincerely.

"Hmph, it's not in the interests of Daliang? Then it should be decided by the Political Affairs Hall and the Chongzheng Yuan, not by our Tianxing Right Army. This Shang Yunxi is shrewd, knowing that if he sends a letter to Bianjing, he is afraid that the Chongzheng Yuan has not yet made a decision, and Xuzhou here has already changed banners. Sima surnamed Xiao looked disdainful, "It's a good idea." ”

Stocky men also find it tricky.

His own Sima obviously did not support sending troops, and in fact he also knew that sending troops was very troublesome.

How many benefits can be gained from being involved in the war in Xuzhou?

Unless the Chongzheng Yuan makes a decision to send troops, the more than 20,000 horses of the Tianxing Right Army can now be mobilized immediately to ensure the supply of military funds, that is, 10,000 horses.

But it is impossible for him to release all these 10,000 horses, so once Songzhou is a little troubled, it will be troublesome.

In other words, he, the commander of the Tianxing Right Army, can use his hands freely, that is, 5,000 people in the two armies.

The key lies in how to give an account to the government hall and the Chongzheng Yuan if the troops are dispatched without the consent of the Chongzheng Yuan?

If you don't get any benefits in the end, then sending troops may become a big sin for you, and you may not be able to sit firmly in the position of the commander of the army.

But what about not sending troops?

Really let Huai right take Xuzhou?

Thinking about Huaiyou's takedown of Xuzhou, it makes people feel unacceptable.

The essence of Huaibei, known as one of the nine states in the world, was taken over by Jiang Feng, who was still a small guy who came to Bianjing three years ago to fight the autumn breeze, this contrast is too great.

His eyes fell on the soldier surnamed Xu, and the stocky man groaned: "Junluo, what do you think?"

"It's really not easy. The surname Xu joined the army and sighed, "We can send 5,000 soldiers and horses at most, and we have to take a huge risk, the people in the Political Hall and the Chongzheng Yuan are all interested in the return of interests, what can we get by sending troops to Xuzhou? Xiao County, or Pengcheng? I'm afraid we don't believe that 5,000 soldiers can take Pengcheng, at most it is Xiao County, but a Xiao County will make us take endless risks." ”

"Junluo, do you mean not to send troops?" The stocky man was a little shaken, his eyes roamed on the faces of the two, "But if Jiang Feng takes Xuzhou, we ......"

Sima surnamed Xiao was also thinking, "My lord, it seems that I don't need us to send too many troops when I look at Shangyunxi, and I care more about us having to make such a gesture." ”

"Oh?" the stocky man suddenly came to his senses.

"Shang Yunxi's letter does not ask us to send troops, but it asks us to put on a clear posture, I think he wants us to support him to replace Shi Yu into Xuzhou, in fact, he also knows very well that we can't send many troops to support him, so he has such an attitude. ”

Sima Mo, surnamed Xiao, rubbed his chin and seemed to be weighing the words, "We sent troops to assist him in holding Xiao County, which is equivalent to letting go of Shang Yunxi's hands and feet, he can calmly march into Xuzhou, or go south to meet the Huaiyou Army, if Shang Yunxi can defeat the Huaiyou Army, then we can not only let Xiao County as a reward, but also let him take out a sum of money and silver as a reward, and we can also get a new master of Xuzhou who is attached to us, which is a double win." ”

"What if Shang Yunxi is defeated?" the stocky man then asked.

"It's nothing if we are defeated, if we are defeated, we can accept Shang Yunxi and take the opportunity to directly enter Xuzhou,......"

"But we only have 5,000 people...... The stocky man frowned and interrupted the other party's words, but was immediately interrupted by the other party: "So what? Could it be that Huaiyou dares to directly clash and confront us, in this case, Jiang Feng can't do this! We can just knock Jiang Feng well, didn't he make a lot of money by selling grain in Huainan? Well, if you want Xuzhou, you should always pay some ransom fees, right?"

"Okay!" "The stocky man and the surname Xu joined the army couldn't help but applaud, this is a good idea, Huaiyou will definitely not conflict with Daliang at this time, as long as you step into the territory of Xuzhou, one city and one place, if Huaiyou wants to take it back in the future, you have to pay money and silver to redeem it, if the Tianxing Right Army can enter Pengcheng, it will be even better, not to mention the attitude of the Chongzheng Yuan and the Political Affairs Hall, even if you really don't want to, Jiang Feng wants to take back Pengcheng, then there are not millions of guan, don't even think about it!

Even before handing it over to Huaiyou, the Tianxing Right Army could also scrape the ground in Pengcheng, the gathering place of Huaiyou's essence, and get enough.

Thinking of this, the stocky man couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows, praised the other party fiercely, and then said: "Then we can weigh it carefully, Xiao County, Pengcheng, or Feng County, Fuli, can we all consider it?"

"I'm afraid not, Fengxian is controlled by Lu Qiming, and Fu Li is too far away, if my prediction is not bad, with Jiang Feng's treachery, I am afraid that our army has not yet stepped into Fuli, Fu Li City has been captured by Huaiyou, Yao Chengtai is arrogant, most of them will be planted in Jiang Feng's hands!"

After receiving Fu Li's loss, Shi Yu and Shang Yunxi were really anxious.

If it was said that the Huaiyou army went north before, the two of them were just a little flustered, but now they really feel that the blade is coming.

Qi County was lost, and there was still Fu Li, a male city to defend, but I didn't expect the Huaiyou Army to come up with a trick to hide the sky and cross the sea.

This Huaiyou Army has not yet arrived in Qi County, but first took the bridge and Fu Li, which is almost cut off the back road of Yao Chengtai in Qi County, if you do not help in time, I am afraid that Yao Chengtai will not be able to hold on for ten days.

Xiao Xian and Peng Cheng's movements quickly became faster, and Shi Yu's 10,000 Ya Army of the Fourth Army, plus Shang Yunxi also got the promise of Liang Tianxing's right army on the Song Zhou side, and quickly mobilized 15,000 troops to pounce towards Fuli along the line of Dinggong Mountain.

However, Shang Yunxi did not move his two armies in Pengcheng with 5,000 people, this is his backhand, in this case, the Pengcheng garrison is only 10,000 people, and he and Shi Yu are five or five halves.

As long as you can break through the Huaiyou Army and recapture Fu Licheng, then the variables behind will be greater, as long as the girder is inserted into the foot, it will not be so easy to withdraw, Shang Yunxi has this certainty.
