Chapter 258: Great Unification, Great Victory (1)
"This year, the snow has been delayed, and this cold is terrible." Fang Keming tightened the big sword on his body and said.
"It's really cold, but the snow isn't necessarily a good thing, tsk, Fang Shen, prepare some mutton under it, eat some?" Zhuge Chen invited.
"Let's go, Xuan Shuai is still negotiating with the eldest grandson Ji, maybe we have to sleep outside today again, and eat some mutton to warm up."
"This Xiao Yu is really picky, let's unite the army for a long time, not to mention the ordnance, the grain and grass have not been supplied so far, it's good now, invite us to help defend together, good guy, don't even give a piece of land." Zhuge Chen complained with a dissatisfied face.
"This Langya is different from other places, it is the gate of Luzhou, forget it, don't force it, everyone is also twisted together, Xuan Shuai has been gone for most of the day, and he is about to come back." In fact, Fang Keming was more dissatisfied with Daning than Zhuge Chen, but he had been in the center, and he could still understand some things.
As soon as the two of them set up the stove, Xuan Song opened the curtain of the big tent, saw Zhuge Chen and Fang Keming preparing to eat, and said with a smile: "You two are very stable, mutton?" ”
Zhuge Chen grinned and said, "Yes, the sheep from the west, the merchant marquis gave us a meal, and we can eat it after a while." ”
Xuan Song smiled slightly, took care of himself, poured a cup of hot tea and drained it, and then said, "You are busy, just to tell you something." ”
"But what's going on over there in Daning?" Fang Keming smiled bitterly.
"I can't say it's bad, but it's really not too good, Changsun Ji hopes that we can garrison Langya, but Daning Xiao Zhan doesn't want us to stay under their noses, he can remember clearly that he was captured by the Condor Army back then."
"What do you mean? Don't let us into the city? Let's camp outside? Zhuge Chen said angrily while cutting meat.
"That's half right, Langya, we really can't get in, you're right, Xiao Zhan rejected us, but we don't have to camp outside, the eldest grandson Ji gave up the gate of Shouchun, and the Daning court also agreed."
"Xuan Shuai, let's go to Dingyuan?!" Fang Keming was surprised.
Xuan Song nodded in confirmation, Fang Keming put down the work in his hand, hurriedly walked to the geographical map of mountains and rivers to study it, and then frowned tightly and said: "Xuan Shuai, if we go to Dingyuan, we will be far away from the base camp, and the middle is all Daning's territory, and it is already the limit for us to come to Langya." ”
"I've thought about it, our grain, grass and ordnance are already difficult to supply, it's better to gamble, let's go to Dingyuan, let the East China Sea people provide us with food and grass, the east of Dingyuan has basically been occupied by the East China Sea people, but look here." Xuan Song said as he pointed to Li Cheng on the geographical map.
"Li Chengcang!" Zhuge Chen blurted out, "Xuan Shuai, are you going to fight Li Cheng?" ”
"I have this idea, so as soon as I come back, I will come to you to discuss, first of all, since we have been far away from the supply of the base camp, let's just play once, the people of the White Clothes Temple heard that the Donghai people did not use the materials of the Li Chengcang after they occupied Licheng, which shows that the Donghai people care more about the Licheng Cang than us."
"Xuan Shuai, if we do this, there will be no turning back, once Daning's side blocks our retreat, have you considered it?" Fang Keming reminded.
"Fang Shen, should we go back?" Xuan Song asked rhetorically.
Fang Keming hesitated, Xuan Song's words hit the deepest part of his heart, retreat is afraid, the people of Daxuan will tolerate them like this, but if they don't retreat, these 100,000 brothers may not be able to come back, Fang Keming closed his eyes and thought slightly, and replied firmly: "Never retreat!" Keming is willing to go with Xuan Shuai! ”
Xuan Song is satisfied, Fang Keming is a close minister in front of His Majesty, and at the same time has the reputation of "Yuan Mou Fang Decisive", since he has chosen the path he has set, he must also have a draft, which is enough.
"Okay, there are second masters and Huan Shuai at home, and the incense of the Condor Army can't be broken." Zhuge Chen grinned, he didn't care, the name of Zhuge was brought out of his bones, and it was the responsibility of their Zhuge clan to serve the country and the people, although there had been some unbearable past, but this time was not the best opportunity to correct the name of Zhuge .
Xuan Song and Fang Keming gave Zhuge Chen a thumbs up at the same time, and at the same time gave him a look of contempt, if he was so depressed before the fight started, if he didn't ask his own people to cut it.
"Fang ginseng, talk while eating?" Xuan Song invited.
Fang Keming found that the fire he was responsible for was about to be extinguished, so he was sorry for casually arching his hand, and then glanced at the geographical map and quickly raised the fire again, and Xuan Song also came over to help with the spice plate.
"Keming, I plan to let Zhuge garrison Dingyuan City, after all, I still have to deal with Daning, this eldest grandson Ji also recognizes our Zhuge more, what about me, take 10,000 cavalry to set off tomorrow morning, but there is a problem, I chose three of the lurking places, and it is difficult to choose for a while, you give me an analysis?"
"Xuan Shuai, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Sizhou, Jingzhou, Huai'an, these three places are now vacuum areas, and the people and merchants have long been evacuated."
Fang Keming fell into deep thought, Xuan Song was not in a hurry, and patiently added red oil and other spicy things to these dishes, it is indeed a good choice to eat some spicy food to warm up the body on this cold day, but unfortunately you can't drink alcohol during the march.
Just when Zhuge Chen cut all the meat and threw the mutton bones into the pot, Fang Keming suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Sizhou! Huai'an is on the north bank, whether it is to hide troops or supplies are difficult, although Jingzhou is the closest to Lichengcang, but the problem of Jingzhou is not easy to defend, once there is an accident 10,000 people are not enough to deal with, Sizhou is not far away, easy to defend and difficult to attack, we can at least ensure that there is a basis for advance and retreat. ”
"Keming, 'Yuan Moufang's name is well deserved!" Xuan Song did not hesitate to appreciate, he was indeed very hesitant about the three places, Fang Keming's judgment made him feel a lot more stable, at least he had a plan for the next step in his heart.
"Xuan Shuai? Don't you have to let me go this time? Zhuge Chen couldn't interject and asked tentatively.
"The eldest grandson recognizes you, although the eldest grandson has always maintained a good relationship with us, we still have to maintain it well," Zhuge Chen still wanted to argue, but Xuan Song stopped: "I know what you think, Ke Ming has to be responsible for all the intelligence exchange and analysis, and he has no time to deal with them." ”
Zhuge Chen muttered dissatisfiedly: "I also want to fight a good fight!" ”
"If you fight, give you a clue, once Li Chengcang is lost, the East China Sea will definitely fight back, and the East China Sea garrison in Huaiyin will definitely come to Li Chengcang, but the East China Sea people in Yangzhou will definitely attack us in an all-out way, and the front line from Langya to Dingyuan will definitely be the main battlefield, Xiao Zhan, hum, this guy doesn't have this ability."
"Xuan Shuai, seriously?!" Zhuge Chen's face immediately became happy.
"Really, Zhuge , don't worry, once Li Chengcang is taken by Xuan Shuai, the main battlefield will be with you, and I will always be with you." Fang Keming picked out a piece of fatty mutton and assured it while chewing it.
"That's good! That's good! Zhuge Chen's excitement was beyond words, after the excitement, the Five Organs Temple also began to rebel, rubbing his hands and preparing to do a big job, only to find that the mutton that had been cut down so hard was not even left at the bottom of the plate, looking up at the two of them, Xuan Song and Fang Keming were slowly bowling, and the two saw Zhuge Chen's chopsticks hanging in mid-air, and immediately took the bowl vigilantly, leaving only Zhuge Chen with a resentful face.
"Cough, cough, cough, these boys are really brave, dare to make such a plan?" Chen Zhiqing was still freezing when he was holding the stove.
Su Qing subconsciously pushed the brazier to Chen Zhiqing's side, and sighed in his heart, Zhong Rouxuan! It's really very, a poison almost abolished a world-famous general.
"It's too risky, let's prepare reinforcements in the next suggestion." Tan Ji didn't care about Chen Zhiqing's body, and studied Xuan Song's combat intentions wholeheartedly.
"Although it is a bit risky, once the Li Chengcang United Army is taken, the situation will be reversed." Chen Zhiqing is still more at ease with Xuan Song.
"But..." Tan Ji wanted to say something, but Chen Zhiqing didn't give him a chance, and said: "They have this power to decide before the general of the army, since Xuan Song and Keming are sure, let them do it, when it comes to support, I don't have anyone in my hands to support." ”
"Qingshuai, in that case, I will send our opinions and Xuansong's battle plan to Changsha, and I can appear on His Majesty's desk early tomorrow morning." Su Qing asked, although she was also a little worried about Xuan Song's boldness, but she really didn't like Tan Ji's attitude, she was not good at leading troops to fight, so she would leave it to the capable to live in.
Saying that it would be noon when he arrived the next morning, Gu Qingfeng shook his head helplessly when he got up early in the morning to sort out the correspondence for Meng Yan, sighed, picked up a large stack of documents and turned to the back hall.
Meng Yan saw Gu Qingfeng sleepy-eyed, stretched his waist while lying down, and said lazily: "Queen Mother, you are gone, my bed is not warm." ”
Gu Qingfeng rolled his eyes, he was not serious, put down the paperwork, and then took down the big gun and said, "It's time for you to get up, after a night's work, a lot of paperwork is waiting for you to read." ”
"Well, they can't decide for themselves? And you, the queen, you can give instructions for daily contacts. Meng Yan said dissatisfied, what he was dissatisfied with was not that the affairs were complicated, but that the ability of his subordinates to deal with decisive affairs made him helpless.
Gu Qingfeng picked up Jiang Xia's paperwork, and by the way, he also took out Xuan Song's battle plan and sent it to the bedside, and said, "I can do the rest for you, but you should judge this matter yourself." ”
Meng Yan rubbed his eyes, saw the color of the cover, and said suspiciously: "Xuan Song? Qingshuai also has things that can't be decided? ”
After that, he got up and sat up, took a cursory look, and said, "Hmph! These young men are bolder than the other! ”
"What do you think? It's too late to catch up. Gu Qingfeng felt that something was wrong when she saw it, but Chen Zhiqing didn't object, and she couldn't question it, so she could only wait for Meng Yan's judgment.
"No need, the battle plan is fine, let them do it, I believe in them, tell Su Qing, the intelligence must be able to keep up, the spies of the East China Sea people are not so easy to deal with, if there are not enough people, let Wanyu transfer some people over."
"Do you think this is possible?" Gu Qingfeng planned to break the casserole and ask to the end.
"The risk is certain, but they chose Sizhou as the place to hide the troops, and this battle will be half won, and once their plan succeeds in occupying Lichengcang, this battle will definitely expand, and when Xiao Yu doesn't want to participate, he has to participate, it just so happens that we have been looking for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the East China Sea, and this may be this opportunity."
"But what if you lose?" Gu Qingfeng still felt risky.
"Defeated? If you lose, there will be nothing, however, the war will not develop according to a fixed plan, I have confidence in them, and you don't have to worry too much, trust them. ”
