"Zhu Mao will definitely not agree easily, Yanzhou has been in business for many years, even if Hong Kui and Lang Kun in the north are not counted, although the situation in the six central counties and the three counties in the south is also very bad, but it is much better than Yunzhou and Yizhou, so first, we need to point out to him the intentions of the Liang monk Yunxi, so that he understands that he can't stay in Yanzhou, and second, we must give him enough ideas, we can provide him with sufficient grain and grass and even other military funds to support him to fight back to Jeju. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Zheng Hong had already thought carefully about this issue before he dared to show off in front of Jiang Feng.

"Jeju is Zhu Mao's hometown, and he has always wanted to fight back, but he doesn't have the strength to take the lead alone, but Jeju is lonely in the northeast, and the law and order has been unstable, which must be related to Zhu Mao's trouble. ”

"It's not enough. Although Jiang Feng was also a little moved, he quickly shook his head: "Zhu Mao is not stupid, he should understand that if he fights back to Jeju, even if he succeeds for a while, Da Liang will soon fight back, and even Shang Yunxi will pounce on him, even if we help him behind the back, it will not work." ”

"The Jin army of Hedong will not sit idly by, and Zhu Mao will definitely contact Hedong. Zhang Ting continued, "As long as Hedong is on the front line of Puzhou and Huazhou, Daliang will not be able to deal with Zhu Mao." ”

Once Jeju falls into the hands of Zhu Mao, if Liang wants to enter Jeju, it is necessary to pass through the territory of the Yunzhou Juyeze water bandits, Shouzhang and Suchang are all controlled by the Juyeze water bandits, if they can instigate the Juye Ze water bandits to make trouble for the Liang army's logistics baggage, Daliang may not be able to easily recapture Jeju. Zheng Hong's eyes became more and more refined, "Even if the big beam passes by, I'm afraid that the Juye Ze water bandits will also worry about the fake way." ”

Jiang Feng stood up and thought silently, Zheng Hong's opinion is very operable, but it is not easy to do, especially to understand Zhu Mao's thoughts, and at the same time to persuade Zhu Mao to follow this direction, in addition, Huaiyou must not be too explicit, otherwise it will be a troublesome thing to be targeted by the beam.

Of course, if Hedong Dajin really wants to take this opportunity to fight against Daliang, it will naturally be the best, and Daliang will not have so much energy to govern the northeast corner of the district at that time.

"Let Zhu Mao go to Jeju has another advantage, maybe there is some attraction to Zhu Mao, that is, he has always been a whole, if he can stand firm in Jeju, then Qizhou can also be expected, when the Taining Army was originally an ally of the Pinglu Army, but when the Liang attacked Jeju, the Pinglu Army refused to send troops to support on the grounds of being outnumbered, which also made Zhu Mao hate Pinglu to the core, but over the years, Pinglu has been keeping to himself and has never given Zhu Mao a chance. ”

Hearing Zheng Hong say this, Jiang Feng's heart moved slightly, Zheng Hong was so well prepared, he must have some ideas, it is better to give him such an opportunity to go to Yanzhou.

"Xianhan, I intend to let you go to Yanzhou for a while, and see Zhu Mao, what do you think?" Jiang Feng glanced at Zheng Hong and said calmly.

"If you dare not obey your orders, you will live up to your expectations. Zheng Hong stood up and bowed.

"Okay, then I'll tell Qiming here, you also prepare, without further ado, set off as soon as possible, you and Qiming's people go together, go to Luqiao first, and then you go to Defective Hill. Jiang Feng admonished again: "Everything is premised on ensuring my own safety, if Zhu Mao doesn't allow it, don't provoke him, I have my own way." ”

Jiang Feng's concern made Zheng Hong also a little moved.

The Zheng family is now quite favored by Jiang Feng, which even the two Umeda families are a little envious, in addition to himself, the eldest brother Zheng Ju has gradually participated in government affairs, and Zheng gradually became a highly regarded general in the Huaiyou army.

Of course, these are all related to the Zheng family's full support for Jiang Feng, but now the two Umeda families have also turned, and to be honest, the talent reserves of the Umeda family are thicker than those of the Zheng family.

When Jiang Feng had already gained a firm foothold in Shouzhou, and even the gentry of Luhao began to cling to him, the role of the Zheng family to Jiang Feng was fading, but Jiang Feng already trusted the Zheng family, which could not help but give birth to Zheng Hong's ambition to repay the king with his body.

This time, the affairs of Yanzhou have been carefully planned by him for a long time, even if Jiang Feng does not invite him to discuss, he will find an opportunity to speak, just to use his talents to prove to Jiang Feng that he is loyal to the Zheng family.

Just when Jiang Feng and Zheng Hong were discussing the specific details of going to Bianqiu to meet Zhu Mao to lobby, Hou Chen had already embarked on the road to Qianfeng.

It didn't take much effort for Lang Kun to persuade here, with a letter from Yu Mingzhen and the company of Yu Mingzhen's general Yuan Zhen, everything went very smoothly.

Lang Kun readily accepted Huaiyou's solicitation, and was ready to change banners at the right time, but asked Huaiyou to provide a batch of money and silver as soon as possible, but this side was unable to hold on, and the sergeants fled in large numbers, if they didn't replenish it, I am afraid that there would be less than 1,000 people left in an army.

Of course, Hou Chen also swore to this point.

In fact, I also discussed with Yu Mingzhen before coming, first raised some grain from Xintai and transported it to Laiwu, and then the grain from Xintai was supplied by Linyi, and the grain from Linyi was transported from Xiapi through Yishui.

Yu Mingzhen's nest also has some food reserves, although not much, but the emergency is more than enough, and then the grain in Huainan will be transported north from Shouzhou and Haozhou to Xuzhou and Xiapi.

The grain transferred to Xuzhou is mainly to meet the needs of Xuzhou and may provide support for Yanzhou in the future, and the grain transferred to Xiapi is naturally to meet the needs of Sizhou and Yizhou.

In Hou Chen's view, since the matter has been spread out, Yu Mingzhen is attached to Huaiyou, and Yizhou naturally belongs to Huaiyou, and it is also a top priority to solve the problem of food demand in Yizhou, which is already on the verge of collapse, as soon as possible.

After he arrived in Linyi and negotiated with Yu Mingzhen, he immediately sent people to send a book to Shouzhou, asking Shouzhou to urgently allocate grain to the north.

He believed that Chen Wei and Cui Shang should also understand the truth here, and they would arrange this matter without saying more.

From Laiwu County to Qianfeng (now Tai'an South) County, almost all are mountain roads, this mountainous area belongs to the typical Luzhong mountainous area, the folk customs are fierce, because the plains are very little, the grain production is not much, so it has always been the place of production.

Lang Kun also specially told them to be careful and safe before they left, because due to the rapid deterioration of the situation in Yanzhou, in fact, even Lang Kun and Hong Kui themselves could not control the situation in Yanbei.

The situation on Hong Kui's side is worse than Lang Kun's, at least Lang Kun can still get some help from Yu Mingzhen, is it forced to pretend to be a bandit and go north to break into Zizhou to fight the grass valley, but Hong Kui can't.

First, Qianfeng is indeed too poor, secondly, the area around Qianfeng is originally Hong Kui's hometown, Hong Kui and his subordinates are indeed embarrassed to attack their hometown fathers, and third, Zhu Mao is very strictly monitored.

Hong Kui and his subordinates either had to cross Mount Tai to go to Qizhou to fight grass valleys, but that would be too costly, or they would go northwest to Jeju and go to Jeju to beg for food.

However, Hong Kui and Zhu Mao have not been able to deal with each other very well, and they are also thinking about their own way out, and they are unwilling to attack Jeju to ruin their relationship with Daliang and cut off this only way that seems to be effective in the future, so it is more difficult than ever.

In the middle of summer, the county town of Qianfeng was a little more dilapidated than before, and a group of soldiers were picking up the corpses on the side of the road, all of whom had died of starvation or disease.

In this season, once there is hunger, it needs to be dealt with immediately, either buried deep or burned, otherwise it is very easy to cause plague, and the elderly who have experienced more know this truth.

The man with his hair combed into a Taoist bun stepped on the stone lion next to the door that was broken to the point of only one pedestal, and his face was gloomy as he watched the soldiers carry away the corpse, and couldn't help but sigh.

A man who looked like a farmer came out of the door, and when he saw a man with a Taoist bun who was a little distracted, he hesitated for a moment before whispering: "Boss, I'm afraid the grain can only last for three days, if we don't leave, I'm afraid we won't even be able to get out of Qianfeng." ”

Glancing at the man standing behind him, the man in the Taoist bun did not squeak for a while.

The farmer said again: "We can't afford to drag it out, and if we drag it out, the soldiers will have to find their own way out, and it's still too late to go." ”

Within three days, the army could march from Qianfeng to Pingyin, and the intelligence showed that there was only one battalion of the garrison in Jiyin, and due to the frequent activities of the Shatuo people in Xiangzhou and Weizhou north of the river, the Jeju garrison had already pressed to the Puzhou line, and the entire Jeju garrison had only three armies, and the Juye Ze water bandits were also rampant, so the garrisons of these three armies were also concentrated in Yanggu, Dong'e and Zhilu counties, like Changqing and Pingyin, where only one battalion was stationed.

Gu Conghu never expected to take Jeju, his idea was to lay down Pingyin, grab enough food from Pingyin, and then talk about it.

They don't have such a long-term plan, first of all, they want to fill their bellies with their two thousand sergeants, even if the Liang army fights, they can accept Zhao'an, when there are no soldiers, you just want to accept Zhao'an, Daliang will ignore you, the reality is so cruel.

But the boss is still hesitating, Gu Conghu also understands the boss's distress, he really wants to tear his face with the beam, what if the beam is unwilling to recruit An?

The question is, is there anything else that can be thought of now?

Go north to cross Mount Tai, if there is still half a month of grain, but you can cross Mount Tai to Qizhou to get a handful, but now it is estimated that when crossing Mount Tai, the soldiers have to escape most of them.

Go due west, it is Yunzhou controlled by the Juyeze water bandits, even Zhu Mao is helpless against the Juyeze water bandits, and directly gave up Yunzhou, Gu Conghu doesn't think that his two thousand soldiers can be good at the Juyeze water bandits, not to mention that the food of the Juyeze water bandits is hidden in the vast lake of Juyeze, and if you win the water bandits, the water bandits drill into the endless reeds of Juyeze, what can you do?

Otherwise, there is only going south and Jiedu to make the adults beg for food, it is a hard battle, Zhu Mao's own food is not enough, how can he give it to outsiders?
