Huaiyang Pass temporarily convened an emergency military meeting, in addition to leading the light cavalry to parade outside the gourd mouth of the Northern Liang cavalry commander Yuan Zuozong, Yan Wenluan, He Zhonghu, Chen Yunchui, Gu Dazu, Zhou Kang, the five highest official infantry generals in the border army, together with the Du Hu Chu Lushan, plus the deputy generals of the two cavalry armies on the left and right outside Liangzhou Pass, Liangzhou General Shi Fu and Youzhou General Huangfu Fang, as well as Poria Liuya Chongzuka and the main generals of the four military towns in Qingyuan, as well as Huang Laifu such a powerful school captain more than 20 people, more than 30 Northern Liang military generals jointly attended the meeting。 If the price of military merits is calculated according to the number of heads of the Empress of Beimang, who can break through this pass at this time is really a monstrous military achievement.

Xu Fengnian, who rarely directly pointed fingers at side affairs, gathered everyone this time and put forward a bold tactic, which was far more radical than the previously established strategy, not just "Youzhou cavalry is inclined to the west, and Lingzhou cavalry is inclined to the north" It's so simple, but to regard Liuzhou as the key battlefield that really determines the victory or defeat of the second Liang Mang, and its status is even vaguely more than the unbuilt Beibei City and the entire Liangzhou Pass, He Zhonghu Chen Yunchui The two deputy marshals are opposed, and Zhou Kang, the Jin Partridge who is a little less senior, clearly agrees with the opinion of the young vassal king, Yan Wenluan and Gu Dazu did not express their position, because in this way, it is too risky, their Beiliang King has made it clear that he wants to have a vigorous battle with Beimang!

If you use heavy troops to beat me outside the Liangzhou Pass, then I will crush your Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties!

Gu Dazu, as the current deputy marshal of the Northern Liangbu Army, the pillar of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the past, at the end of the Spring and Autumn War, once proposed that "to defend the territory, you must fight outside the country", it stands to reason that Xu Fengnian's policy should be very suitable for the appetite of veterans, but after weighing the pros and cons, Gu Dazu couldn't help but look down at the cold confrontation situation map on the table again, and said worriedly: " Lord Wang, this move may not be appropriate, not to mention whether our cavalry on the Liuzhou side can advance all the way to the hinterland of the Southern Dynasty and reject the north of the northern city, even if there are Youzhou infantry troops on the front line of the willow bud and Poria heavy mound to help garrison the city, but in terms of troop comparison, we are obviously still at an absolute disadvantage, this disadvantage is not something that can be made up for by a few city walls, once Yu Luandao and Ning Emei lead the troops westward together, the disparity in strength will be even more exaggerated. The cavalry of the two generals of Zhou lost their support, and they moved their whole bodies with one move, and in a hurry, how could the main army of Beimang be able to stop the main army of Beimang? Without the rejection of Beicheng, even if most of the Beimang and Southern Dynasties were smashed by the Liuzhou cavalry, it would be useless in the overall situation. ”

Yan Wenluan took one hand and pointed to the map with the other, " Let's look at this matter in reverse, first assume that there is no war in Hulukou, and the main force of my Youzhou infantry army is simply transferred to Liangzhou Pass, which is all, instead of the original 30,000 people, then the effect of Poria Liuya and other military towns to block the enemy army will be greater, for example, let me stay in this Huaiyang Pass, Gu Dazu, you lead the troops to Chongzuka Military Town to assist in the defense, Chen Yunchui chose to connect with the Qingyuan Military Town in Liuzhou, Liangzhou, so that the overall defense line north of Beicheng is resisted, and I dare not say how to be iron-walled, so that the Liuzhou cavalry can win two to three months......"

The two deputy commanders of the infantry army under the command of Yan Wenluan had not yet spoken, but He Zhong, the commander of the left cavalry army, suddenly said in a hurry: "No, absolutely not! Everyone here is your own person, there are some things I say or not, everyone understands in their hearts, rejecting the area north of Beicheng, Huaiyang Pass is still destined to be undefended, not to mention the number of towns in Liuya and Poria Cocos, the three of you, is it possible to give the Northern Mang barbarians the opportunity to be crowned the king of the domain three times in vain?!"

Speaking of this, He Zhonghu hesitated for a moment, and looked at Xu Fengnian and Chu Lushan who were standing side by side, "Lord Wang, it's not me He Zhonghu who underestimated those young generals in Liuzhou, in fact, whether it is Kou Jianghuai Xie Xichen, who is known as the Shuangbi of Western Chu, or Cao Wei and Yu Luandao, I appreciate it very much, given time, I may not be worthy of lifting shoes for them, but the next big battle cannot be lost, Beimang Dong Zhuo, Huang Song Pu, and those barbarians can make some mistakes, but unfortunately we Beiliang must not make the slightest mistake! Those young people are ...... after all Not to mention that there is still an old and serious Huang Songpu in Liuzhou, and now that the Rota Mountain has defected, there are not many cavalry troops in Liuzhou, and except for the Dragon Elephant Army, which is from the old battalion, the rest of the cavalry army has not been in the army for a long time, and there is no tacit understanding that can only be cultivated after experiencing one battle after another.

Zhou Kang frowned, and suggested with some confidence: "If Old General He is worried that Liuzhou does not have a backbone, why don't you just let Commander Yuan personally preside over the overall situation?"

Chu Lushan shook his head and said: "Yuan Zuozong is indispensable for the war of the cavalry outside Liangzhou Pass, we need a cavalry general, he must be able to use the cavalry to achieve the realm of 'far water can also quench the thirst', this kind of thing, only Yuan Zuozong can do it in Beiliang, and I Chu Lushan can't do it." Therefore, most of those young horsemen in Liuzhou have to fight on their own, from beginning to end!"

When the soldiers of the world recognized the battle of the princess tomb that decided the decisive battle of Xileibi, Yuan Zuozong was the most deserved hero, so it can even be said that there was no Yuan Zuozong's leading army to run long-distance running, and now the surname of the Central Plains is Zhao and Jiang is also two.

Chu Lushan once made a thousand horsemen to open Shu, and Lu Shengxiang's snowy night in Luzhou, and called the two classic cavalry battles in the Spring and Autumn War, but compared to Yuan Zuozong's temporary surprise attack on the princess's tomb, it is undoubtedly inferior, you must know that even Chen Zhibao admitted afterwards that he realized the significance of the princess's tomb battlefield later than Yuan Zuozong. Therefore, the first thing Xu Fengnian did after the hereditary replacement was to let Yuan Zuozong serve as the commander of the cavalry, and Chu Lushan was only the first person to serve as the nominal Northern Liang general.

Xu Beitong, who had just secretly returned to Beiliang from the Lianghuai Dao Envoy's Mansion, stood in the corner, without saying a word, and the long journey made him a little tired, so he simply stood there and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Yan Wenluan, who was short and thin but stable but stabilized the generals in the hall, bent his fingers, knocked on the table, turned his head and asked: " Chu Duhu, Cao Wei's 10,000 cavalry drawn from the border army at that time, Yu Luandao's 10,000 cavalry, Kou Jianghuai mixed with a considerable number of young and strong cavalry troops from Liuzhou, plus a temporary takeover of the two towns of Linyu Fengxiang with a total of only 6,000 cavalry, and Ning Emei's Tiefutu, which was urgently replenished after being seriously injured, the five young cavalry generals who were only two Yan Wenluan together, do you really want to bet on them to turn the tide?

The root of this controversy actually lies in whether those young people can take on the great responsibility and whether they can be worthy of the generosity of the Liangzhou border army. If you can't let the Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties hurt your muscles and bones, and you can't force the Beimang Middle Road Army to fall into the situation of "going deep alone", even if the Liuzhou cavalry kills more enemies, even if you kill the civil and military officials in the Xijing temple, just like Gu Dazu said, in fact, it is not beneficial to the overall situation, and if you reject the northern city, Liangzhou, which is empty of troops, will inevitably fall, and this battle will not have to be fought.

Chu Lushan rubbed his hands, smiled, and looked at the young vassal king out of the corner of his eye.

Xu Fengnian was about to speak out, but at this moment, Xu Beitong finally spoke, "Back then, the general took the Xu family army to fight in the south and the north, and set foot in the six countries, I remember that at that time, the king of Shu Chen Zhibao, Chu Duhu, and Yuan Commander were all extremely young, Xu Pu Wu Qi and others, the age was actually not too old, and even General Yan was a young and strong general at that time, so at that time, the Liyang Military Department would have the sour irony of 'baby captain, and general Guan'. Whether it is Kou Jianghuai Xie Xichen, or Cao Wei Yu Luan Dao Ning Emei, it is not the kind of 'everyone' who talks on paper, except for Cao Wei who has not yet made great military achievements, the rest of everyone has great military achievements, such as the two Kou Xie who were originally not famous, Cao Changqing still dares to appoint them as the main generals of the two fronts in the east and west of Western Chu, why is our Beiliang not at ease?"

Xu Beitong smiled and asked, "Could it be that the combat strength of our Liuzhou cavalry is too worthless?"

Without waiting for anyone to give an answer, Xu Beiji took a few steps, walked to the table, and continued: "Beimang Taiping ordered this strategy, step by step, nothing more than wanting to encroach on the Beiliang Iron Cavalry little by little on the battlefield outside Liangzhou Pass, in fact, it is also forcing us Beiliang to accompany Beimang to follow As long as the Beiliang Iron Cavalry chooses to fight with the Beimang barbarians in the north of Beicheng to the end, then even if we don't take risks and don't rely on the Liuzhou War to risk breaking the situation, everyone in the house will not escape the fate of the battle, it's just a matter of time or time, if you want me to say, let's not always think about how to lose less ugly, we can't just think about fighting the border army, just to kill more than 100,000 hundreds of thousands of Beimang cavalry, but to think about how to win, win and convince Beimang and Liyang. ”

Xu Beitong stretched out his hand and pointed to the table, suddenly restrained his smile, and said in a deep voice: "Now the opportunity has come!

Xu Fengnian turned his head to look at this guy and smiled slightly.

Yan Wenluan and He Zhonghu, a group of Spring and Autumn veterans, are not stunned young people with strong blood, after listening to Xu Beitong's remarks, there was not too much agitation, but became more and more cautious.

Jin Partridge Zhou Kang is recognized as a violent general in the Beiliang Border Army, and has always admired that the best defense is to attack, and probably knows that the outcome of today's deliberations may determine the survival of Beiliang, so he did not add fuel to the fire, but said carefully: "There is no doubt about the talent of those young people in leading troops, now I want to confirm one thing, that is, the few cavalry armies of Liuzhou without a leader can really lead Huang Songpu's nose?"

As the only Beiliang Wenchen, Xu Beitong suddenly made a move that made the house full of meritorious generals cry and laugh, and pointed to the King of Beiliang not far away, "I have to ask him, today's dispute is all tossed by this person." ”

Xu Fengnian, who had a somewhat pale and sickly face, smiled dumbly and said slowly: " Kou Jianghuai Xie Xichen two people are used to using soldiers, I believe you have all seen the water room spy report and the imperial court assassin history level mansion report, have a general understanding, each has its own strange positive, the turning point of the Guangling Road war, the Western Chu state from prosperity to decline, in fact, Kou Jianghuai left the battlefield in a fit of anger, as for the reason for this matter, it is not in the scope of today's discussion, it also involves Kou Jianghuai's privacy, but we look back at the war that made the imperial court army anxious, it is not difficult to find that this pair of Western Chu double walls one left and one right, arch guard Western Chu, opponents are Yan Zhenchun, Yang Shenxing, Lu Shengxiang, Wu Chongxuan, Chen Zhibao and others, all of them are masters of the art of war in the world, although the later war began to tilt away from the sun, of course, there are also some factors other than the battlefield, so that Lu Shengxiang and Chen Zhibao did not send troops, but Western Chu is still able to maintain the balance of power in general, which is not easy, so I am looking forward to Kou Xie joining forces again in Liuzhou. ”

Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "If Liuzhou's opponent is Dong Zhuo, who is good at strange soldiers, instead of Huang Songpu, who is heavy with soldiers, I will be as uneasy as many people. ”

Chu Lushan Yin said: "So the prince specially arranged a big meal for the kid who planted Tan this time, and the ninety horsemen of the Wu family who stayed outside the Liangzhou Pass will go to the Western Regions under the leadership of Xu Yanbing and cooperate with Cao Wei to intercept and kill Tan Tan." ”

Xu Fengnian looked down at the map of the territory of Beimang and the Southern Dynasties, and said softly: "Beimang's military strength is extremely strong, otherwise it would not have given us such a headache in Beiliang, but over there in Beimang's temple, all kinds of shortcomings, it is difficult to return, and it is far more undercurrent than we imagined in Beiliang. The confrontation between the two officialdoms of the south and the north court has moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, so that the old woman who threatened to sell our heads by two catties can no longer suppress the situation with an iron fist. ”

Yan Wenluan nodded after thinking deeply: "This line of thought...... Very interesting. ”

Then Yan Wenluan's expression was complicated, looking at Chen Yunchui and He Zhonghu, the old guys who had been fighting horses with him, "We are old, although we can still ride horses and kill people with bows, but compared to Yu Luandao's group of young people, we are still old after all." ”

The autumn breeze is rising outside.

Yan Wenluan, a veteran in his twilight years, looked out of the house for some reason, was stunned, and muttered: "When you are old, you will be old, so you will help the young people one last time." ”

Xu Fengnian looked at everyone and said with a smile: "I believe that those young people in Liuzhou can bring surprises, and I also believe that everyone in the house can defend the North City." ”

Xu Fengnian paused slightly, stretched out his hand, and pressed it heavily on the cold and reckless situation map on the table, "If there must be a reason, it is that I am the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry World!"
