Shangguan Xiu immediately made a decision and ordered his soldiers to collect carriages in the city, load all the gold and silver hoarded in the treasury and silver treasury into the carriage and transport them away, and prepare to withdraw the army, escort the gold and silver, and withdraw from Ningnan.

Such a huge amount of gold and silver could not be transported in a day, let alone transported away. In this day's time, Ningnan's Third Army and Fifth Army Corps had taken the lead in chasing to Chidu County, less than three days away from Amy City.

While the Third and Fifth Army Corps were chasing after the Zhenjun Army, the various legions of the Ningnan Army were also heading south, and it could be seen that the Feng Army's sneak attack on Amy City really touched the lifeblood of the Ningnan Imperial Court.

In the face of the crazy actions of the Ningnan Central Army almost pouring out, the officers and soldiers of the Zhenjun Army want to say that they are not afraid or worried, it is impossible, looking at the various reports sent back by the dark flag personnel, Shangguan Xiu is also frowning, feeling that his situation has reached a precarious point.

Meng Qiuchen, who was following Shangguan Xiu, was as stable as Mount Tai, and he had already anticipated this situation in advance.

He suggested to Shangguan Xiu that his retreat should abandon the passage from the south, go against the road, break through to the north, and break through from the northern counties in Ningnan.

His tactic was too bold, the Zhenjun army was fought from the south, and it did not touch the counties in the north, and it was a completely unfamiliar area for the Zhenjun army to come and the north of Ningnan. Returning the same way, the Zhenjun army knows the roots, and all the counties along the way have been opened up by them, as well as the rebels they left behind to occupy and control, abandon the southern passage, and break through to the north, every county, every county, every city, they have to attack again, how much time does this have to delay?

In the high-level meeting of the Zhenjun Army, Meng Qiuchen's plan was opposed by the vast majority of the generals of the Zhenjun Army. Guangfang, who has always been dissatisfied and suspicious of Meng Qiuchen, will not miss this opportunity.

He stood up, pointed at Meng Qiuchen, and said to Shangguan Xiu: "Brother Xiu, I said a long time ago, Meng Qiuchen is from Ningnan, he defected to our army, he didn't have a good heart at all, this time he misled our army, attacked Amy City, and gave us a sweet taste first, which led to our army falling into a heavy siege." Now although we have robbed the gold and silver of the people of Ningnan, what is the use, we can't bring it out at all!"

An Yifu said worriedly: "Carrying so much gold and silver has indeed greatly increased the baggage of our army, our army is already fighting in the territory of the enemy, and it is difficult to move forward, and now, if you want to break through, I am afraid it will be even more difficult." ”

Luo Ren answered: "Breaking through to the north is a dead end, first, our army is not familiar with the north of Ningnan, and second, there is no city or town controlled by our army in the north of Ningnan, not to mention that if you can't get supplies, you will be blocked by layers of blockage." ”

When everyone says a word and I say a word, they are basically opposed.

Shangguan Xiu listened carefully, seeing that everyone's opinions were almost expressed, he looked at Meng Qiuchen quietly, and asked with a smile: "The brothers' objections, Mr. has also heard them, what does Mr. think?"

Meng Qiuchen asked curiously: "My lord, ......what is the villain's position in the army?"

Hearing this, many of the people present were so angry that they were angry, what time is it now, are you still thinking about your position in the army? Shangguan Xiu blinked inexplicably, and after a pause, he smiled and said, "Sir is naturally the military advisor of our army. ”

"What is the position of General Fang?"

"Lao Tzu is the captain of the gendarmerie!"

"I don't know, is the Zhenjun Army at the level of a military division, or the rank of the captain of the gendarmerie?"

Guangfang pinched his waist with both hands, and was about to speak, Shangguan Xiu coughed lowly and said with a dry smile: "Naturally, the level of the military master is high." ”

Meng Qiuchen nodded and said, "Since my rank is higher than General Fang, it is already disrespectful for General Fang to call me by his name just now, and he accused me of having different intentions for no reason, and even committed the following crimes, my lord thinks that General Fang's disrespect and offense, how should I deal with it?"

"This ......" he really stopped Shangguan Xiu when he said this, and the latter pondered for a while and asked, "What does the military advisor mean ......?"

"At the moment of the great enemy, it is not appropriate to punish him heavily, so let's beat thirty military sticks to set an example!" Meng Qiuchen said slowly.

As soon as these words came out, Guang Fang's eyes widened like copper bells, wondering if his ears had heard it wrong, and all the generals present also showed surprise on their faces, looking at Meng Qiuchen dumbfounded, as if they were looking at a monster.

Shangguan Xiu secretly smiled bitterly, he really liked Guangfang, Guangfang's temperament was simple and upright and impulsive, and he didn't cause much trouble in the Zhenjun army, but Shangguan Xiu never had the heart to punish him, but now it's good, Meng Qiuchen is thirty military sticks as soon as he opens his mouth, and it is not suitable for heavy punishment.

"This ......" Shangguan Xiu hesitated and did not answer immediately.

"It seems that I, a military advisor, is not worthy of my name, so don't do it. As he spoke, Meng Qiuchen stood up and was about to walk out. The generals present were in a hurry, and they stepped forward with a hula, holding swords and swords under their ribs one by one, and glared at Meng Qiuchen angrily.

He led himself to Amy City, causing himself to be in danger, and now he wants to leave, it is easy to say! Meng Qiuchen looked at the wolf-like Zhenjun army generals in front of him, without fear, smiled slightly, and turned around and asked, "My lord, do you remember the promise you made to me at the beginning?"

Shangguan Xiu was silent for a while, then stood up and bowed to the generals, signaling them not to be rude. He bypassed the table, walked to Meng Qiuchen, and said with a smile: "Sir, don't worry, I should be you, it's just that thirty military sticks are too many, as a general in the army, the enemy is current, and it is not appropriate to ......."

Before he could finish speaking, Meng Qiuchen answered: "Thirty military sticks can be exempted, but twenty military sticks must be punished, please give an order." ”

Meng Qiuchen's meaning, Shangguan Xiu understood in his heart that he didn't have to get along with Guangfang, but Guangfang was unlucky, and he happened to hit the muzzle, although Meng Qiuchen was a military advisor, but he was not convinced, and he had no prestige, this time Guangfang offended him, and he just used the topic to play, so as to establish his authority and warn the soldiers in the army.

After thinking about it, Shangguan Xiu finally gritted his teeth and said to the soldiers outside the door: "If someone comes, if you commit a crime under Guangfang, you will be beaten with twenty military sticks, and you will not show mercy." ”

The gendarmerie is responsible for enforcing military law, and how dare they kill their top bosses, these 20 military sticks are actually slapping the face, the face of Guangfang, and the faces of the officers and men in the army.

When Guangfang saw that Brother Xiu was facing Meng Qiuchen, he immediately wilted, like a child going to sue, but he didn't win in front of his parents, and he felt the grievance in his heart. In the end, the twenty military sticks still hit him, Guangfang's skin was rough and thick, and the gendarmes who enforced the law did not dare to make heavy moves, and the twenty military sticks were equivalent to loosening his skin, but after coming back, Guangfang didn't dare to blow his beard and stare at Meng Qiuchen anymore. He was still like this, and the other generals looked at Meng Qiuchen with a little awe in their eyes.

This is naturally the effect that Meng Qiuchen wants, as a military advisor, if he can't convince the public, then anything he says in the army in the future will be like a fart, no one will listen, what is the point of him staying in the Zhenjun army?

Seeing that all the generals present were silent, Meng Qiuchen smiled slightly and said: "The generals are right, our army has fought all the way from the south, but do the generals think that the counties and counties in the south are still under the control of our army? Breaking through to the north seems ridiculous, but it is actually the way to win in danger. Even we ourselves thought that this road was impassable, and the Ningnan Army would not have expected it, and if it was not expected, it was not prepared in advance, and it was not fortified in advance. What is fighting in a war, that is, fighting bravery, but also fighting wits, fighting is to take it by surprise, attack it unprepared, and break through in the north is the only way for our army to survive. ”

The scene was silent and silent. People are wondering whether Meng Qiuchen's words make sense or not, naturally they make sense, but fighting a war is not reasoning, one wrong step will lead to a loss.

After a long time, Hu Chong took a step forward and said, "The last general thinks that what the military advisor said is reasonable. Breaking through in the north seems to be dangerous, but in fact it can be taken by surprise and further disrupt the deployment of the various corps in Ningnan. ”

Shangguan Xiu's eyes narrowed, his mind kept turning, and he carefully pondered the pros and cons of this tactic. After pondering for a while, he looked at Meng Qiuchen and asked, "Sir, do you think that our army can be sure of success if it breaks through to the north?"

"Fifty percent. Meng Qiuchen thought about it and said cautiously.

As soon as he heard this, Guangfang was reluctant again, snorted heavily, and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a pain in his buttocks, and when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, touched his nose, and didn't say a word.

Shangguan Xiu ignored him and asked, "If we break through to the south, how sure is our army?"

Meng Qiuchen smiled indifferently and said mercilessly: "There is no chance, I'm afraid that even adults will die miserably in the end." ”

The scene fell silent again, and everyone couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for Meng Qiuchen, what he said was too ruthless and poisonous, even if it was like this, there was no need to say it so straightforwardly.

In the venue, only the sound of Shangguan Xiu's habitual fingers tapping on the table was left. After another long time, he nodded, and said, "According to what the military division said, our army will break through to the north!"

Meng Qiuchen said that he was fifty percent sure of breaking through to the north, but he was actually exaggerating, and his real thoughts in his heart were that he didn't even have a thirty percent certainty, but one thing was certain, breaking through to the south was definitely a dead end.

As a military advisor and as the formulator of the strategy and tactics of the whole army, he cannot let the officers and men lose sight of hope, even if he uses deception, he must let the officers and men of the whole army fight with hope, and only in this way can the whole army have a glimmer of life.
