The bald-eyed man's eyes froze, and his eyes turned cold again, "Happiness? Isn't it happiness compared to starving those brothers to death?"

was so stunned by the bald eyebrow man's words that he didn't know how to answer, and Sun Dao didn't know why the boss suddenly turned his tone again, so he could only be silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ah Dao, I know that you sympathize with your old brothers, but I want to tell you, it's too early to talk about happiness, you know the number, this time to cross the Huaishui in the south, what is our purpose, you know very well, this battle is the foothold of our Yan Army, in the past we were in the Central Plains, in Huaibei, Jianghuai, are all Liukou, are there a ton but not a down, but you should also understand that this kind of day will not last long, this time may be our last chance, if we can't take this opportunity to gain a foothold in Wudi, then in the future, those feudal lords who rely on the family will not give us any more chance, so this battle is our real foothold battleIt's also our fight for the dead!"

The bald-eyed man's tone became even colder, "All of you have to tell the brothers below that this battle is related to the survival of our Flame Army, and whether all our brothers and their wives and children can live a stable life, so they not only have to fight for their lives in this battle, but also absolutely obey orders, and no longer like before, Wu Di will be our place to stand!

Although I have heard the boss's remarks for a long time, with such a strong and affirmative attitude, it still makes the generals feel intimidated.

Lao Qin Quan had already told the generals that Wu Di would be the foothold of the Yan Army, and the wealth of Wu Land could provide the survival possibility of hundreds of thousands of people in the Yan Army, rather than barely making ends meet like Huaibei, or even limited to a period of time, and the rich Wu Land only needed a war to completely destroy those gentry who were unwilling to cooperate with the Yan Army, and attribute their things to the children of the Yan Army, of course, you can also choose those merchant families who are willing to cooperate with the Yan Army.

This is Qin Quan's idea.

Moreover, before this, Qin Quan had already begun to carry out a step-by-step plan through various channels, and what he was waiting for was the opportunity for the Yang-Xu dispute to evolve into a war.

To complete this task, it is inevitable that he will not be able to destroy everything indiscriminately as before, everything exposed in front of the Flame Army has been looted or completely destroyed, for Qin Quan, he has become more and more aware of the unsustainability of this method, in Huaibei, he has already deeply felt, so he will attach so much importance to the actions after crossing the Huaishui in the south.

For Qin Quan, this is a huge challenge, which means that the Yan Army will change its original strategy, and can no longer do whatever he wants as before, and he can't rely on the old brothers under his hands to complete this task, he needs a group of general affairs talents who are familiar with local government affairs and proficient in industrial and commercial economics to serve him, and this is precisely the biggest shortcoming of the Yan Army.

This is probably the difference between fighting the world and sitting on the world, but Qin Quan has no choice, he knows very well that the Yan Army is unable to continue like this, and the Huaibei War is already the limit of the Yan Army.

Fortunately, it was the Shi family's strong and middle-class goods that gave him this opportunity, and if he changed to others, such as Caizhou or the three towns of Heshuo, either he was tough enough to drag down the Yan Army, or you defeated them, but you couldn't get what you wanted.

And now that Huaibei has been almost poisoned, after crossing Huaibei, it is time for the Flame Army to transform.

Ruyin Shilipu Wharf.

"Brother Zhan, after a long time, is your health good?" As soon as he stepped on the dock, Mei Guo walked quickly.

Although on the level of martial arts, he has surpassed Ryazan, but he and Ryazan have been friends for many years, before Shouzhou was attached to Huaibei, Mei's has always been friendly with Huaibei, Huaibei is also Mei's backer in Shouzhou, but time has passed, now Huaibei is declining, and Shouzhou has long been attached to Huaiyou, and the two Umeda families have also closely followed under Jiang Feng's command, this meeting can evoke infinite past memories.

After attaching to Huaiyou, Mei's was very conscious and cautious to cut off contacts with Huaibei, even if Jiang Feng was generous, this kind of taboo thing Mei's was still measured, unless Jiang Feng intended to arrange, Mei's would never take the initiative to contact Huaibei, and Huaibei took the initiative to contact Mei's, and Mei's would also report to Jiang Feng.

Later, under the suggestion of Mei's condition, Mei's also took the initiative to provide Wuwentang with some of Mei's connections and relationships in Huaibei, not that Mei's was unwilling to bet on both ends, but the current situation has become more and more obvious, and it is a matter of time before Huaibei declines or even collapses, even if the Shi family changes its course now, after being poisoned by ant thieves, Huaibei can survive and already have to recite Amitabha.

In this case, it is important to show your attitude.

Of course, it is not contradictory to be loyal to Huaiyou and maintain a certain contact with Huaibei, such as this time when he came to Ruyin, Jiang Feng handed over the matter of coordination on the surface to Mei Guo, who was friendly with Ryazan, and Wang Miao assisted Mei Guo to bring the Heshuo army to Yingzhou, and also transported the family members of the Heshuo army back to Shouzhou.

"Ziyu, do you think my current situation can be better? Huaibei is like a candle in the wind, the light is uncertain, under the nest, there are no eggs, I can't sleep at night and eat unpleasantly, how can I be good?" In front of Mei Guo, Ryazan did not hide that his current situation was bad.

"Zhanzhi, why is this so? The Xuzhou army will arrive today, although the Caizhou army is strong, but the probation army is not weak, and with the support of Huaiyou, the Caizhou army will not be able to come and go!" Mei Guo smiled.

"Ziyu, are you really willing to help us win this battle in Huaibei?" Ryazan's eyes were full of light, and when he looked at Mei Qian, he almost pierced Mei Qian's heart, and said word by word.

"Zhanzhi, do you want to hear the truth or lie?" Mei Guo knew Ryazan very well, this person was quite suspicious, but he was also a person with some responsibility, and if he wanted to get rid of his inner doubts, he had to say what was in his heart.

Ryazan's eyes were cold, his pace slowed down, he snorted heavily, and his breathing became a lot heavier, and he was good for a while before he said: "How to say a lie, how to say the truth?"

"Hehe, Zhanzhi, after all these years, why haven't you practiced a temperament that does not change color at the top of Mount Tai?" Mei said leisurely: "In my opinion, there is not much difference between a lie and a truth, it's just your own understanding." ”

"Oh, what do you say?" Ryazan was surprised, but his tone unconsciously carried a bit of anticipation.

"Then let's listen to a certain detailed explanation, but the good wine has not tasted the good wine of Ruyin, is it possible that Zhan Zhi is stingy with a certain treatment?"

"Hehe, Ziyu is deceiving, how can a certain person be this kind of person? It's just that my heart is haggard during this time, and I really want to hear the good news a moment earlier, so that I can put my mind at ease. Ryazan smiled bitterly.

"Well, let's talk about it, and Aunt Zan will listen to it. Mei Guo no longer talked nonsense: "The lie is that Huaiyou will form a brotherly alliance with Huaibei, never abandon it, vow to live and die with Huaibei, and resolutely fight back against the invasion of Caizhou Kou!"

"And what about the truth?" said Ryazan, whose face was cloudy, and said in a deep voice.

"The truth is, Huaiyou will not sit idly by and watch the Caizhou army invade Yingzhou, the Caizhou army has three surnames as slaves, and the heart of the tiger and wolf is in sight, Huaiyou naturally wants to help Huaibei resist the enemy, but the strong guest does not suppress the master, Huaiyou is just an assistant party, willing to provide necessary support, but the main thing has to rely on the Huaibei Reform Army itself, which is also the main reason why Huaiyou took great pains to promote the Xuzhou army to help, of course, our Huaiyou army, including a certain self-led naval army and the southbound Heshuo army will also do their best to help defend Yingzhou. Mei Guo finished in one breath.

Ryazan understood, in fact, this is not difficult to guess, but he still wants to get the guarantee of Mei Guo personally exporting.

He knows that a person like Mei Guo has a gentlemanly demeanor, or he won't say it, if he does, then it is the truth.

"Ziyu, I understand. Ryazan nodded and sighed, "It's just that the Caizhou army came out with all its strength in this battle, and I am worried that even if there is a source of the Xuzhou army, I am afraid that the fight will be very difficult." ”

Mei Guo is not able to answer this question for a while.

Caizhou's tens of thousands of troops, even if the battle on the bank of the Jiepai River frustrated the opponent's spirit, but it should be said that it did not hurt the muscles and bones of the Caizhou army.

Xuzhou reinforcements are coming, but Mei is still a little worried about the true strength of Xuzhou reinforcements, in the face of the raging ant thieves, tens of thousands of Xuzhou troops are overstretched, even if those stupid people of the Shi family intend to preserve their strength to deal with the pressure of the northern beam, it is impossible to make it so bad.

You must know that Huaibei was still a giant comparable to Daliang, Dajin, and Wu more than ten years ago, and even the three towns of Heshuo and Nanyang were a few points inferior, and now they are not only messed up by a gang of ant thieves, but also hit the door by Caizhou, these little brothers who used to rely on their noses, it is really embarrassing.

"Zhan Zhi doesn't need to worry too much, the losses of the Caizhou army in the battle on the bank of the Jiepai River are not small, the defense of Ruyin City is not bad, you are a local defense operation, as long as you deal with it properly, Caizhou will be difficult to please. Mei Jing can only be comforted like this.

In fact, he still has some doubts about this battle, but Huaiyou's main focus is on Wudi, and his attitude towards Yingzhou is to provide help within his ability, but it is impossible to bet too much, this is not the main battlefield of Huaiyou, if Caizhou and Huaibei can reach a stalemate situation in Yingzhou, it would be the best.

"Ziyu, in the first battle of the Jiepai Riverbank, I heard that Caizhou Kou suffered huge losses in the first battle, and the Huaiyou Army used heavy magic weapons, I don't know if I can help one or two to strengthen the defense of Ruyin City?"
