Chapter 102: The Seven Heroes Stand Together and the Deception (3)
"Murong, do you think there is something wrong with this battle of Xichuan?" Zhong Roulan frowned, and checked the Xichuan battle report sent by Luantai in detail.
"Princess, do you think something is wrong?" Murong Changfeng was very concerned about the battle in Xichuan, but he really didn't see anything wrong, and he was a little surprised by Zhong Roulan's question.
Zhong Roulan picked up one of the notices and said: "Look here, Chen Zhiqing led his troops west into the Sword Pavilion and has made peace with Yu Geng," and then picked up a report from the General Administration Department and said: "This is Xifu's plan for Xichuan, and Yu Geng's task is to take Mianzhou, but Yu Geng directly bypassed Mianzhou and went straight to Jiangyoucang." β
Murong Changfeng thought about Zhong Roulan's train of thought for a while, and said cautiously: "Princess, is there anything wrong with this?" Jiangyou warehouse is one of the three major granaries in Xichuan, after Xifu left Xingtan, it has been difficult to supply grain and grass, although the support of Tu Shan's clan and the mass production of Jiangxia is a lot, but the supply of Xifu is still far from enough, and the grain and grass crisis of Xifu in Jiangyou Cang will naturally be lifted. β
Zhong Roulan did not object to Murong Changfeng's judgment, she took out another notice and handed it to Murong Changfeng, and said: "Look at the news from this Beifu again, after Yu Geng took Jiangyoucang, he did not launch an attack on Mianzhou, but surrounded but did not fight, but some of the men and horses went to meet with Chen Zhiqing and the Bingzhijian Pavilion. β
"Do you mean that Xifu Zhi is not in Mianzhou, but in Sword Pavilion?" Murong Changfeng's train of thought was opened.
"Sword Pavilion and Langzhong are important towns in northern Sichuan, and the importance that Xifu attaches to Sword Pavilion can be understood, but Langzhong is a place guarded by Zhuge heavy soldiers, and Xifu only sent Gu Xifeng's 20,000 people to deal with Zhuge Xingyu, is this normal?" The more Zhong Roulan thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't think of anything wrong.
"Maybe Xifu intends to block Langzhong's retreat." Murong Changfeng said this, and even he doubted it.
"Do you think the strength of the West Mansion can be used for such trouble? Will Zhuge Xingyu be his opponent of King Yong? Xifu has no ability to resist when he fights Xichuan step by step, and besides, King Yong actually played his name with great fanfare this time to contain the Yongxi Yang family, is this normal? Zhong Roulan basically determined that Meng Yan was doing the game, but she didn't know anything about what kind of game.
"Mianzhou, Jiange, Langzhong, Bazhong, and Dazhou are the five major towns in northern Sichuan, there is no problem with Chen Zhiqing as the commander, the five states of Yuewang are important towns in southern Sichuan, Huizhou has been lost, it is Jin Qian in command, and it seems that there is no problem, the Yeling Army of Xifu will contain Luzhou in eastern Sichuan in Hejiang, and the seven states in western Sichuan are places where the Qiang people live, and they have always kept a distance from the Central Plains, so it can be said that the current situation in Xichuan will not last long, but the situation in northern Sichuan is indeed a little confusing." Murong Changfeng gave examples of Xichuan's situation one by one, first, he wanted to give Zhong Roulan more reference factors; The second is to analyze the true purpose of Xifu from it.
The two were confused, and suddenly Zhong Roulan asked, "What is Quan Bo doing over there?" β
Zhong Roulan's words made Murong Changfeng's expression gradually change, from melancholy to frightened, and said: "Taking advantage of Zhuge Xingchen's anxiety about the Xichuan war, Quan Bo and the Li clan have had a lot of contact recently, do you say that Quan Bo has reached some kind of agreement with Xifu?" β
Zhong Roulan was startled at first, then was silent for a moment, shook her head and said, "No, Quan Bo is a disciple of the Daling royal family, and he has already become the emperor, do you think he will be willing to give up this throne?" Besides, who is King Yong, who is committed to eliminating the status and influence of the family among the people, and the Quan family is the largest family of the family, it is almost impossible for them to cooperate, unless there are any particularly important conditions. β
The two of them were in a dilemma again, especially Zhong Roulan, she was very concerned about Meng Yan's situation, even if she had openly joined forces with Xiao Yu, but it was impossible for her to give up Meng Yan, the cooperation conditions between the East Mansion and the North Mansion were that everything except against the West Mansion could cooperate, even if it was to overthrow Zhong Rouning's position of power.
A few sneezes made Meng Yan naturally shrug his nose, and the people around him were all sent out, and even the future daughter-in-law was also in the plan, at this time he was really alone except for An Cang.
"An Cang, have you reported the military intelligence from all over the place?" Meng Yan's lazy voice said outside the door.
An Cang said in his heart This is the fifth time he has asked today, Meng Yan, who seems to be indifferent, is actually very nervous, as a personal guard, he doesn't know and doesn't want to know what his master is planning, but seeing Meng Yan's restlessness, he should be doing a big thing, otherwise he won't ask five times a day.
"Lord Wang, military intelligence briefings usually arrive in the afternoon." An Nian's decent, repetitive answer.
"Well, Ancan, what are you doing when you come in and always stand at the door? Do you think someone can assassinate me? β
An Cang did not hesitate, he always obeyed Meng Yan's instructions to the letter, and even his brother An Kui said in private that if the prince asked him to kill him, this younger brother would not raise his eyebrows.
"You've been with me for so long, have you ever thought about going to the army to be in charge?" Meng Yan spoke to An Cang with a chatter-like attitude.
"But by the king's orders!" An Cang's words are very concise, and his attitude is also straightforward.
"Forget it, with your temperament, you should follow me." Meng Yan was very helpless about himself, the leader of the pro-army, he was already a third-grade military attachΓ©, except for Bai Zewei's daily affairs, he insisted on staying by his side, and it was useless for anyone to persuade him.
A thought flashed in Meng Yan's mind, and he said with a smile: "An Cang, tell me, do you have any favorite girls?" β
An Cang blushed suddenly, although An Cang is a simple man, but there is still a normal relationship between men and women, An Kui has introduced him to various girls many times, and he has shirked Bai Zewei's busy official business, this is an excuse, he has something in his heart.
"What are you shy, I don't have to be two years older in terms of age, I have a son and a daughter, your brother is not in a hurry?" Meng Yan teased.
"Lord Wang, my brother did introduce it, but..." An Cang was considering whether to prevaricate with the same excuse.
"But the military is busy, isn't it? Tell me which girl it is? Meng Yan could see An Cang's careful thoughts at a glance.
An Cang's face blushed even more, thinking of the girl's heart, but her status is not low, and she is also a talented woman among the women in the boudoir of the officials of Xifu, I am afraid that she will not look down on herself.
"An Cang, no matter which girl it is, you say, Lord Wang, I will personally protect you as a matchmaker!" Meng Yan saw that An Cang had concerns in his heart, the woman An Cang liked must be the relatives of the officials of Xifu, he stayed by his side all the year round, and it was these people who could come into contact.
"Chaoyu." An Cang said in a sullen voice, saying that he couldn't look at the whole face.
There are not many people with the surname Chao in Xifu, except for the Chao Qun family, it is estimated that there is no one else, Chao Qun was Gu Qufeng's deputy general, and he was betrayed by Gu Qufeng in the first battle of Linwu, and he has always been obsessed with the Gu family, so that he can be regarded as a middle-class existence among the generals of Xifu, and he has also had a glorious performance in the first battle of Hengyang in the key battles of Xifu.
This Chaoyu is his own sister, what does it look like, it is surprising, in Gu Qingfeng's words, this girl's appearance and Chaoqun cannot be said to be underground, but should be said to be irrelevant, only sixteen years old Outstanding literary talent, according to Ye Bohuai's research, the cultivation of the cultural context is close to the cultivation realm, if it is cultivated, it may be a generation of Wenzong in the future, it is not easy to say.
It was because of this that Meng Yan also felt difficult, how could this An Cang just pick the girl Chaoyu, looking at An Cang's figure and face, Meng Yan couldn't wait to take back what he just said, he couldn't imagine the two standing together, Beauty and the Beast!
The dignified prince has said everything, I can't deny it, An Cang believes in himself to tell the truth, I'm afraid that even An Kui doesn't know his thoughts, there is no way, I can only know that there are tigers in the mountains, and I prefer Tiger Mountain, fortunately, Chaoqun is in the army, and the families of Xifu officials also temporarily live in the west courtyard of Bajun Wangfu Biyuan because of the problem of relocation.
However, Chaoqun can still solve it by himself, but the problems of the girl's family are not good at it, and it is even more inconvenient, I am afraid that this matter will fall on Gu Qingfeng, thinking of this, Meng Yan feels that it is necessary to pay attention to the family affairs of officials and generals at all levels in Xifu, especially a large number of unmarried young people, she was dealing with it when Cang Shu Haoyue was there before, but now there is no one in charge of the palace in the palace, alas, it is really a family matter, a national matter, a world matter, and everything is troublesome.
When Meng Yan was about to think about how to deal with these things, a sergeant hurriedly came to report, and An Cang immediately returned to the role of a personal attendant, and took it and handed it over directly to Meng Yan.
Meng Yan took a hurried glance after opening the report, it was Gu Yanfeng's report, the head was big, Yang Bo still couldn't hold back, Yang's soldiers went out of Hanzhong and went straight to Meng Yan.
It's okay, everyone is tired of being in such a stalemate, fight a fight, defeat, and the Yang family will be honest, Meng Yan thought about it for a while and arranged: "An Cang, inform Yiling Gu Yanfeng to leave me alone, let him immediately send troops to Liangzhou, turn the territory of Liangzhou upside down, make the Yang family uneasy, tell him not to care about the gains and losses of one city and one pool, if he wins, he will fight, and if he can't win, he will leave." β
After An Cang got the order, he immediately turned around and prepared to go down to arrange the fast horse, at this moment, the successive military intelligence briefings arrived, and An Cang returned to Meng Yan's side after arranging the messenger to Yiling outside the door, in his consciousness, he can't leave now, and guarding the prince is the most important thing.
Meng Yan looked at the series of military intelligence reports, his frowning brows gradually stretched, and he smiled: "Qingshuai lives up to expectations!" The Sword Pavilion is already in our hands, inform Su Qing that we can do things. β
An Cang saw Meng Yan smile, and his nervousness eased a lot, and then asked, "Does the prince have other arrangements, and he will deal with them in the end." β
Meng Yan read the report, and then thought for a while and said: "Tell Jin Qian that the attack on Dechang needs to be fast, and after taking Dechang, suspend the attack and wait for the other party's attitude." β
Zhuge Xinglan is still the child who was bullied and not valued by the family in Meng Yan's mind, but he doesn't know what it looks like now, let's wait and see his choice, it is best to die less.
Then he held Gu Qingfeng's letter in his hand, and then said: "Inform Qingfeng that Zhuge Xingyu is at the end of his rope, and don't make any more moves after taking Yilong." β
Suddenly, An Cang saw that there was a word on the north side of the letter in Meng Yan's hand, and pointed: "Lord Wang, there seems to be a word on the north side of the letter." β
Meng Yan was stunned for a moment, turned it over, and smiled, only the four big characters handwritten by Gu Qingfeng "You are lying!" β
Meng Yan suddenly laughed, Gu Qingfeng really saw his layout, or if there was one more staff officer, it would be better to grasp it, and after thinking about it, he said: "An Cang, I will write a letter to Qingfeng, and you can send a competent person to Yingshan to hand over the letter to Qingfeng in person." β
"The last general commands!"
An Cang was about to go out, only to see Meng Yan get up and stand up, stretch his waist, stretch his muscles and bones, and said: "I'll go with you, it will take a few days for Yiling to enter the customs, let Yang Bo see my methods in a few days!" β
After that, Meng Yan strode out of the door, walking in a tiger's step.
