Section 114 Foreshadowing
Gao Yang's words made Lu Tong's face change slightly, and Gu Hua on the side didn't want to ignore it, and couldn't help but interject at this time: "Lord Gao, the Huaiyou Army is not a subordinate of our probation army, and it is not even an ally, that is, a helper who does not want to see Caizhou seize Yingzhou, they are not obliged to obey our orders in everything, and it is already commendable to make an exception and use their secret weapons to assist us in defending Ruyin City.

Gu Hua's unkind words made Gao Yang a little annoyed.
He is not a direct subordinate of Ryazan, nor is he even a direct subordinate of Shang Yunliu, who brought troops this time, he followed Yu Mingzhen, the judge of Jiedu.
This time, the three armies were dispatched at once, almost emptying Yu Mingzhen's main force, and Yu Mingzhen's losses were not small for more than a year in the year of encircling the ant thieves, and only the elite four armies remained, and the three armies were to be transferred at once, and it was Shang Yunliu who was in command, Yu Mingzhen was a little unwilling.
However, due to the strict order from the Jiedu envoy, Yu Mingzhen had to obey, so he let his henchman Gao Yang lead his troops to come, and he stayed in Xiapi to form a new army.
Before leaving, Yu Mingzhen also repeatedly told Gao Yang to keep this force, and the implication was that Gao Yang must guard the bottom line, and not let Shang Yunliu squander his army at will, consume it in vain, and even be deliberately used as cannon fodder by the other party.
At this time, Gao Yang heard that since he had such a powerful weapon, he was only used to defend the city, and refused to use it in field battles, but once the Caizhou army surrounded him, Gao Yang was eighty percent sure that his army would take the initiative to defend and be sent out of the city to fight in the field, so of course he had to ask what was going on.
"Hehe, Master Gu, since Huaiyou is willing to invest so much, not only has he sent three armies, but even the Heshuo army that has just surrendered to Huaiyou will also be involved in the defense of Yingzhou, which shows that we are already a community of interests between Huaibei and Huaiyou, I'm afraid your explanation is a little unconvincing, right?" Gao Yang sneered.
"Since Lord Gao doesn't believe it, Gu can't either, when the two adults come out, Lord Gao might as well ask in person. Gu Hua didn't talk nonsense, "What does the Huaiyou Army do, we can't interfere, maybe Brother Gao can make them bow down and obey orders." ”
Hearing Gu Hua's sarcasm, Gao Yang was also a little annoyed, but he couldn't refute it, but Lin Feng came forward to play a round, saying that the commander of the Huaiyou Army would also participate at that time, so he could ask.
Xu Ziqing and Zhao Wenshan, who were standing far away, were also a little amused and a little emotional.
Xu Ziqing sighed that Jiang Feng's judgment that Huaibei was a strong foreign force and a middle cadre, which seemed to be reasonable.
Even in the face of a strong enemy, the army was still fighting among themselves, so how could this battle be fought? But at the same time, the internal turmoil in Huaibei still made Xu Ziqing a little uncomfortable.
Obviously, Huaibei is also an internal factional situation, the lack of a strong monarch, and the situation of the tail is too big, so that Huaibei itself has the strength can not be reflected, the direct result is to do nothing in the face of ant thieves and poison, in the face of foreign invasion, mutual blame and suspicion.
Huaiyou seems to have had the beginning of such a situation.
Forces with weak foundations and rapid development can only achieve rapid expansion of strength by means of annexation, merger, absorption, and solicitation, and this is also very easy to form internal indigestion, resulting in the expansion of mountain power.
Maybe the difference is that Jiang Feng himself is strong and he is also the founder of this system, so he can control the situation, but once Jiang Feng's control is weakened by other factors such as unfavorable war, diplomatic difficulties and other factors, then these mountains gathered with interests will begin to show strength, which Xu Ziqing believes Jiang Feng should see, but I just don't know if Jiang Feng can realize that it is so dangerous.
After I go back this time, I need to remind Jiang Feng.
However, this kind of war in Huaibei has not yet started, and the internal situation has been full of contradictions, so Xu Ziqing also realized that Jiang Feng had long expected that the result of this station, which might be difficult to win, might really happen.
It stands to reason that relying on the advantages of fortified cities, the allied forces of their own side are more numerically than the besieging side, and they should be sure to win, but this kind of internal strife situation is bound to greatly reduce the entire combat effectiveness, everyone wants to preserve their strength, and everyone suspects that they will be betrayed by friendly forces, how can this kind of battle be fought?
is different from Xu Ziqing's position, and the angle of observation is naturally different, Zhao Wenshan is more concerned about the level of momentum shown by the generals of Huaibei and the guards brought by the generals.
He has recently attached himself to Huaiyou from Heshuo, and his own positioning has not yet been completely determined, so of course he doesn't have to think too much about things that are too far away, what he needs to consider is how the strength of himself and the brothers he leads compares with the Huaiyou and even the current temporary "allies", so as to adopt some strategies in a targeted manner, learn from each other's strengths, and develop their strengths and avoid weaknesses, which is the basis for Heshuo's survival in the Huaiyou Army system in the future.
Zhao Wenshan can see that the martial arts level of Huaiyou's generals is still not weak, and the level of Lin Feng and Gao Yang's Taixia period means that the generals who hold positions in the government and hold important positions in the various armies under the probation army have the level of the Taixia period, and the commander of the ordinary army should also be the role of the recuperation period, which is similar to the situation on the Heshuo side.
But there is one thing that Zhao Wenshan also knows, that is, it also belongs to the Taixi period, but the generals on the Huaibei side have more advantages, the reason is very simple, first, the weapons and armor equipment configuration of the generals on the Huaibei side is significantly stronger than that of Heshuo, which is determined by the economic strength between the two places.
Take Gao Yang and Gu Hua as an example, the saber on Gao Yang's waist may not be his main weapon in battle, but it can be seen from the runes on the scabbard and the wire on the edge of the handle of the knife。
The same embodiment can also be seen on the armor, the armor on Gu Hua's body Zhao Wenshan heard Wang Miao mention it, it is said to be a fire cloud unicorn armor.
In this era, most of the unicorn refers to the copper lizard produced in the south, its skin can ward off fire, and its toughness ranks among the top four in the leather of various colors of making armor, and it is as famous as rhino leather, frog skin, and panxiang leather, which are excellent materials for making super armor.
It's just that this copper lizard lives in the southern swamp area, which is not only fierce and difficult to conquer, but also very good at seclusion, and very difficult to catch.
Moreover, each copper lizard is no more than two feet, and to make a fully armored pair, you need at least five to eight copper lizards with leather on the back and tail.
Just making such an armor material is sky-high, and with the processing of the magician, it can be said that every Fire Cloud Qilin Armor is priceless.
Gu Hua's armor was also given to him by Ryazan, and it was the masterpiece of Liang Yaozong, the master of the sorcerer in Xuzhou City, eight years ago, and Liang Yaozong gave it to his nephew Ryazan, but Ryazan gave it to Gu Hua.
Even the quality of the armor worn by Ryazan himself is not as good as this one, which shows Ryazan's trust in Gu Hua.
Zhao Wenshan estimated that just Gu Hua's armor and saber could withstand the price of his own battalion to replace armor and weapons, and if he changed it, he was absolutely reluctant to spend so much money on such a suit of armor and weapons.
Zhao Wenshan didn't know what the situation of Huaiyou was, but he felt that the situation on the Jianghuai side was generally much stronger than that on the Heshuo Qingmi side, especially the ones who were willing to spend money on weapons, armor, war horses, and magic instruments and appliances that would enhance their combat power.
Although Zhao Wenshan does not think that having these auxiliary conditions can prove that the probation army is a strong army, but under the same circumstances, having these equipment can undoubtedly be more advantageous.
With the sound of armor, the entire flower hall suddenly quieted down, and several guards with knives came out, standing on both sides, standing solemnly.
From the small doorway at the back, a few purple-robed generals who were talking came in from the front of the flower hall.
The generals standing on the side of the flower hall also subconsciously stood up straight, the first one was bare-faced and short-bearded, it was the Yingbo regimental training envoy and Yingzhou Thorn Shi Ryazan, and in parallel with Ryazan was Guanghushou Defense and Capture Envoy Mansion Yatui Wang Miao.
The two people walking behind seemed to be discussing something, and there was a bit of closeness in their tones, one of them was Mei Qian, and the other was the deputy envoy of the probation army, Shang Yunliu.
The momentum brought by the parallel of the two small heavenly powerhouses makes the entire flower hall have a unique feeling of air flow inside and outside, whether it is Ryazan and Wang Miao who are walking in front, or Lu Tong, Gu Hua, Lin Feng, Xu Ziqing and others outside the flower hall, they can feel that special air pressure.
Shang Yunliu's gaze was condensed like substance, and he swept around lightly when he entered the flower hall, whether it was Lu Tong, Lin Feng, or Xu Ziqing and Zhao Wenshan, he felt like a sharp sword piercing his heart defense, and he could see it at a glance.
Mei Guan also felt the change in Shang Yunliu's temperament, but he didn't care about it, and he was very calm.
In terms of strength, he knew that although he was also the strength of the small heavenly position, Shang Yunliu's martial arts level was one level higher than his own, and he already belonged to the Ning Dan period in the small heavenly position, and the martial arts level of Shi Yu, who was the head of the Shi family, that is, the probation army, was between the best of the best, and he had just stepped into the Dan stage.
Shang Yunliu is considered the second master of Huaibei martial arts, and even Shi Yu, the first master, can be stronger than Shang Yunliu, Shang Yunliu has been famous for many years, but this old man has a short personality, and he has not entered the country since he stepped into the early stage of Ning Dan, and there are even some signs of regression over the years, but compared to his younger brother Shang Yunxi, and several other martial arts powerhouses in the probation army such as Yao Chengtai, Yu Mingzhen, Lu Qifang and others are still a step higher.
Mei Guo also listened to Jiang Feng's evaluation of Shang Yunliu, thinking that Shang Yunliu may be very strong in martial arts, but in terms of command ability, he is far inferior to his younger brother Shang Yunxi, and even Ryazan is inferior, coupled with character flaws, and he is stubborn and self-serving, and this time letting Shang Yunliu lead the troops to come, it is also a big defeat for Shi Yu, so this also makes Jiang Feng even less optimistic about the battle of Yingzhou, especially when Ryazan is not very convinced of Shang Yunliu.
