Wen Yi led 100,000 land and water coalition troops to attack Fangtou, and he got the latest battle report just after walking a short distance.

Liu Meng took Guanggu, which also meant that Qingzhou officially fell into the hands of the Tang army. He did not stop, and was marching towards Taishan County.

Wen Yi is not surprised at all about this progress, it is not normal without this progress.

He led his army on, and did not encounter many ships on the way, let alone merchant ships, not even fishing boats.

The reason is very simple, Jin Yan fought in the Fangtou area, and the entire Yellow River was basically a dangerous area, and no one dared to venture into it.

This is convenient for the Tang Army, and you can go casually and no one will grab the waterway.

At noon the next day, they came to the boundary of Dongjun, which was only fifty miles away from the battlefield of battle. And a fleet finally appeared ahead, waving the banner of Jin Guohuan Wen.

Obviously, Huan Wen also knew about the arrival of the uninvited guest, and sent someone over to try to stop it.

Wen Yi didn't break in, but found a place where the water flow was slower and stopped.

"Daniel Zhang, Shi Dangdang."

"The minister is here."

"The two of you will lead an army of 40,000 to land on the north bank of the Yellow River to outflank Yecheng and cut off the retreat route of the Yan army."

The two said happily: "Yes." ”

This is a standard opportunity to make a big contribution, and they can't be happy.

"Lin Xingzhu."

"Yes."

"You lead 10,000 troops to land in Dongjun from the south bank, and fight a place to settle down first."

"The minister commands." Lin Xingzhu said in a sullen voice.

The tasks of making great contributions were assigned to others, and he could only drink soup, so he was naturally very depressed.

His mood Wen Yi could guess that the assignment itself was deliberate, and he wanted to suppress them.

Lin Xingzhu, Wang An, Lu Yan, Wu Liyue, and others are all rising stars. The ability to speak truth is more than one step stronger than Daniel Zhang, Shi Gandang, Ma Yibai, Li Zhong and others.

Daniel Zhang and Shi Dangdang were able to get to where they are today, largely because they joined early and were old enough.

The battle of reunification is actually not difficult, and Wen Yi's plan is to use this group of old fellows to fight, so that they can make a little more military merit, so that they can be promoted to knighthood in the future.

After the reunification of the country, this group of old fellows will be needed to help stabilize the regime, and when everything is ready and needs to expand externally.

The old guys should hand over the power, the country of the country, and the people who should enjoy the blessings.

Then transfer the power to Lin Xingzhu and Lu Yan, and use their talents and abilities to each command a large army to conquer one direction.

If you reuse them now, when the country is unified, they are all the public power of the country and the opposition, how can they be used?

So the current situation is that they can only beat the side drum as a deputy and accumulate some merits a little, and even many rising stars did not bring it this time.

Wen Yi didn't tell anyone about these ideas, and it was not convenient to tell anyone else.

Of course, the main reason why he dared to do this was because his prestige was high enough and he was not afraid of his subordinates rebelling.

Besides, the people under him know his long-term plan, reunification is the first step, and there are many opportunities to expand the territory in the future.

I don't feel like I don't have a chance just because I can't lead troops to fight in front of me.

For example, the current Lin Xingzhu, although he was very depressed, he didn't dare to grin in front of Wen Yi, so he could only sprinkle his anger on the defenders of Dongjun.

He was originally the best general to kill in the Tang Kingdom, and there was no one, and this time he really washed the powerful and powerful people of Dongjun and the Hu people.

Of course, this is all for later, so I won't mention it for the time being.

After arranging the movement of the two armies, Wen Yi said: "Since you have come to the Central Plains, you can't help but greet the heroes, I am going to send an envoy to the military camp of the Three Kingdoms, which of you is willing to go?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, this job is not easy, and if you don't do it, you will lose your head.

Liang Xian was the first to stand up and said: "The minister and General Huan have had a few encounters, so let's go to the Jin army camp for Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Fang was also unwilling, and said: "The minister and Murong Chui also had a relationship back then, so let's go to Fangtou." ”

Pan Yue said with a smile: "Then I can only go to the camp of the Qin State, Wang Meng is the world's famous minister and I have been friends for a long time, and I have to see everything this time." ”

Wen Yi looked at the three of them and laughed in his heart, the earliest cabinet of the Tang Kingdom walked, and there was no shortage of competition in secret.

"Okay, just the three of you. Tell them that I want to decide where the world belongs with one to three in Fangtou, and ask them if they dare. ”

Everyone couldn't help but be impressed by his arrogance.

Liang Xian came to the Jin fleet in a small boat, and when he learned of his identity as a messenger, the Jin soldiers were not embarrassed, and sent him directly to the Fangtou military camp.

At this time, Huan Wen already knew the news of the Tang State's troops, and even knew that Huaishui had been lost. However, I don't know how many troops Tang Guo has produced, and I don't know the specific battle situation.

But the cutting off of Huaishui was enough to make him uncomfortable, not to mention that there was another army eyeing him.

He was anxious to hold a meeting with his subordinates to discuss a solution.

"Tang Guo has been dormant for many years, and finally can't help but make a move."

Huan Chong said angrily: "Despicable, you know the sneak attack." ”

Xi Chao was also very angry, but he knew that anger could not solve the problem, so he frowned and looked at the map, and said:

"The Tang State Water Division is unparalleled in the world, and it is difficult for us to recapture Huaishui. Now the stone gate is our only way out, we must guard this place, and we must not lose it. ”

Huan Wen bowed his head and said, "I can trust Xie Wuyi's ability. ”

Xi Chao said: "But the Yuzhou army and Murong De suffered heavy losses in the first battle, and they are being besieged by the 30,000 army of the Qin State, if the Tang State is involved again...... Huh......"

Speaking of this, his eyes lit up and said, "yes, why didn't I think of this." Now that Shimen is surrounded by the Qin State, the Tang army has come over to intervene again......"

Huan Wen and Huan Chong were also stunned, and at the same time thought of the possibility he said.

Huan Wen thought for a while and said, "It's really a good way to drive away the wolf...... But I'm afraid that tigers and wolves will reach a consensus. ”

Xi Chao's face changed, and he also thought of this possibility.

And this possibility is still very large, put yourself in their shoes, if they are Tang Congress, how can they intervene in this war?

Naturally, they united with the weaker Qin Yan and kicked the stronger Huan Wen Army out, and then they divided the winners and losers.

Huan Chong hurriedly said: "Hurry up and send reinforcements to Shimen, there must be no loss here." ”

Huan Wen was about to agree, but he heard a report from his subordinates, and Tang sent an envoy to ask for a meeting.

The people in the camp were stunned for a moment, what did it mean to send an envoy over at this time?

Xi Chao immediately said: "Things may not be as bad as we imagined, the general might as well see him and probe the wind." ”

Huan Chong asked, "What's the name of that messenger?" ”

The soldier who reported the message said, "Liang Xian." ”

Huan Chong muttered, "Liang Xian? It turned out to be him. ”

Huan Wen also felt that this name was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while, so he asked, "Do you know this person?" ”

Huan Chong nodded and said, "Back then, we did business with Tang Guo, and he used to be an envoy for a while, but then he returned to Tang Guo and was never heard from. ”

Huan Wen suddenly realized: "It turned out to be him, then I want to see him." ”

Xi Chao also cast an inquiring gaze, at that time he had not yet taken refuge in Huan Wen, and he did not know about this matter.

Huan Wen didn't hide it from him, and told him what happened at that time.

Xi Chao realized at this time, and said: "It's easy to do if you have an understanding, maybe you can ask something useful." ”

So Huan Wen withdrew his subordinates, leaving only Huan Chong and Xi Chao, and then met with Liang Xian.

As soon as he entered the tent, Liang Xian put on a posture of meeting an old friend, and said with a smile: "General, General Huan, I really want to worry about Liang after a long time." ”

Huan Wen and the others didn't expect him to greet him like this, but they are all old foxes, so naturally they won't lose, Huan Chong smiled:

"Yes, after Mr. Liang left, he never heard from him again, it was really not a friend's doing."

Liang Xian said seriously: "It's a mistake, today I am here to make amends to the two generals." ”

Huan Chong said: "Oh? I don't know how Mr. Liang makes a claim? ”

Liang Xian said: "Knowing everything is endless. ”

The three of them looked at each other, not expecting to get such an answer.

Xi Chao thought he was humiliating himself and others, and said coldly: "Could it be that Mr. Liang thinks that my lord is easy to deceive?" ”

Liang Xian looked at him and did not answer directly, but said, "This must be Xi joining the army, right?" ”

Xi Chao said: "It's exact, I don't know what Mr. Liang has to say?" ”

Liang Xian said: "I don't dare to give advice, my cousin-in-law Wang Xianzhi is now my Tang Wenyuan Pavilion bachelor, and my cousin is my Tang Guozi's business, and we can be regarded as related." ”

Xi Chao's face changed drastically, and then he seemed to think of something, and sneered: "Nonsense, if you want to say that the two of them are in the Tang Kingdom, I will still believe them, but if you want to say that they are officials, do you think anyone will believe them?" ”

Liang Xian pretended to be surprised and said, "Why don't you believe it?" Although our Tang Kingdom does not allow the existence of the Shi clan, it does not refuse to allow talents to work. ”

Xi Chao sneered: "What about women as officials? ”

Liang Xian said: "Although there are not many in my Tang Kingdom, women can be officials. What's more, Ling's cousin was appreciated by the queen and was exceptionally promoted. ”

Xi Chao said: "Shut up, nonsense." General Fang Cai once said that you are a talent, but I didn't expect you to be just a madman full of nonsense. ”

Liang Xian smiled slightly and did not argue, but said: "Believe it or not, how great is my Datang...... Well, all you can guess. ”

Although he closed his mouth in time, the contempt in his words was overflowing, and Xi Chaoqi's face turned red.

Huan Chong was afraid that things would get out of control, so he hurriedly said: "Mr. Liang, just now you said that you know everything and say everything, what do you mean?" ”

Liang Xian smiled: "It's literal, as long as you ask, I will never hide what I know." ”

At this time, Huan Wen also thought that he was teasing himself, and said angrily: "Is Mr. Liang's words true? ”

Liang Xian said: "I can swear to the sky, if there is a false word that makes me die without a place to be buried, I am afraid that the general will not believe you." ”

The three people in the account were stunned again, and even Xi Chao showed a surprised expression.

The ancients believed in ghosts and gods, and took this oath very seriously. It's not that no one swears arbitrarily, but when it comes to their status, there are almost no people who dare to swear arbitrarily.

Now they are a little unsure of Liang Xian's attitude.

They didn't realize that after such a mess, they all forgot to give each other a dismissal.

Xi Chao was the first to react, because of the impression just now, he didn't believe Liang Xian's words, so he asked, "Then how about telling us your troop route and plan?" ”

Liang Xian laughed and said, "Haha...... That's it? Okay, can you give me a map? Let me make it clearer. ”

Xi Chao was about to give him the map in his hand, but when he saw the lines on it and the deployment of troops, he stopped in time.

Huan Wen also thought of this and said: "Just dictate, you can know the truth as soon as you hear it." ”

Liang Xian didn't force it, but said: "In fact, we have made all the preparations for the Central Plains a few years ago, and we are waiting for an opportunity. ”

"This opportunity is your Northern Expedition, General, as for the reason, I won't say it, you can also understand it."

"Hmph." Huan Wen snorted coldly, of course he was not happy to be calculated by others like this. But as a commander, his heart was even heavier when he heard this.

Others have calculated him for several years, and since he must have made all the preparations for the shot, it will be more difficult for him to fight.

Liang Xian continued: "This time, my Majesty of the Tang Dynasty personally drove the expedition, and sent a total of 300,000 troops, 100,000 sailors, and 200,000 troops. ”

"Among them, 50,000 went to Liaodong to attack Longcheng, first, to capture the puppet Yan Emperor Murong Weijun alive, and secondly, to deter the Liaodong tribes and prevent them from invading Liaodong."

Xi Chao couldn't help but mock: "Fifty thousand? When Emperor Yan fled to Liaodong, he took an army of 100,000 with him, plus the 50,000 defenders of Liaodong, there were at least 150,000 troops. ”

"You only sent 50,000 people, and you still want to take Liaodong and capture Emperor Yan alive? Are you too arrogant or too stupid? ”

Liang Xian was not angry, and said, "Believe it or not." Let's talk about the Central Plains, my lord personally commanded an army of 250,000 to the Central Plains. ”

"50,000 sailors entered Huaishui to cut off the general's retreat, and landed from Xinyang to take Shimen."

"Well, the 30,000 army of the Qin State is attacking Shimen, and it just happened to destroy them together, consuming a little more of the strength of the Qin State."

Everyone felt more and more that he was unreliable in his words, and this cowhide was too big.

That's the elite of the 30,000 Qin army, and Gou Chi and Deng Qiang, who command the troops, are all famous generals in the world, why did you become a chicken cub in your mouth?

Or are you Tang Guo so arrogant that you don't take the world in your eyes?

"50,000 troops landed from Donglai Kingdom in Qingzhou, and then the army was divided into two divisions. All the way along the Yellow River to the direction of Yuzhou, all the way along the Huaishui to attack the land of Xu and Henan. ”

"Another 50,000 troops landed from Leling County and marched along the Yellow River in the direction of Yecheng."

"My lord personally commanded an army of 100,000 troops, and came up along the Yellow River to meet General Huan, General Murong of Yan State, and Prime Minister of King Qin."

"Oh, yes. Just before I came, my lord had already sent 40,000 troops to make a detour through the rear of Yecheng and cut off the northward retreat route of the Yan army. ”

"As long as you take Shimen again, you can complete the siege, the 500,000 army of Yan and Qin, and the general...... Well, by the time we're done, we'll have up to 400,000 left......"

"What my lord means is that the three of you can join forces and fight against my Tang army."

"Bang." Huan Wen slapped his palm on several cases, and said coldly: "Liang Xian, because of the old man's previous affection, he has always tolerated you, I don't think you would bully me like this, I really don't dare to kill you?" ”

"Hey." Liang Xian sighed and said, "I know that the general of this battle plan will not believe it, think about it, if someone tells me this, I will not believe it." ”

"But this is the plan of my Tang Kingdom...... When the army outflanking Yecheng landed, your spies were watching with their own eyes......"

"You can also send someone to check on the war on the Qingxu side, I believe there should be news in Yuzhou in the next few days......"

"The general might as well investigate as I say...... Oh yes, my lord also sent envoys to the Qin and Yan armies, with the same purpose as me. ”

"I'll tell you what's going on, and I'll make an appointment with you."
