One person and two horses, Xu Huabiao has not never been, he took Lin Yuner to Xuzhou to save Jin Zhongguo before, and this is how he passed.

This time, as the commander of the whole army, he got a special treatment, one person and three horses.

But it didn't matter, this march made him understand that he really just brought an extra horse to the mountains and rivers before.

From Luoyang to Chenliu outside the city, the Shence army only walked for less than forty hours......

The whole time was almost always in a galloping state, and the rest time was only three horse changes.

With such a cavalry, Li Xiuman naturally couldn't put it into Chen Liucheng, so after taking the cavalry outside the city, Xu Huabiao just let them rest outside the city and rode into the city by himself.

"Prime Minister, let your soldiers not be nervous, I didn't bring troops to flank you, with that kung fu, you better send the soldiers to the front line."

Chen Liu's Taishou Mansion, Xu Huabiao said to Li Xiuman speechlessly.

It's a complaint about what happened to the Shence Army just outside the city.

"Your soldiers? What happened? ”

Li Xiuman, who was facing the map in the hall, had a gloomy face, saw Xu Huabiao who entered the room with a happy face, and when he heard what he said, he was instantly blindsided.

"Ask your General Jiang Shiqi. Good fellow, with a group of men, you will surround my soldiers. Thanks to my people listening to the command, otherwise the fight would have started. Xu Huabiao snorted.

"Lord Xu, wait a minute!!"

At this time, Jiang Shiqi, who was following behind, entered the room.

“…… What's going on? Li Xiuman looked at Jiang Shiqi and asked.

"Ahh My lord, that's right. Just now, the cavalry with an unknown path came from the west, and I thought that Li Yanhao's troops had bypassed the sneak attack on the front line, so I sent people to surround them...... I didn't expect it to be Lord Xu's soldiers. Jiang Shiqi hurriedly explained, "Fortunately, the two sides didn't make a move." ”

“…… Hurry up and arrange for someone to send supplies to Lord Xu's troops. Li Xiuman hurriedly said.

People came to help them fight, and they were almost beaten by themselves......

Hurry up and gag your mouth with food and drink!!

Xu Huabiao was very satisfied with Li Xiuman's reaction, so he decided not to say anything.

Seeing Jiang Shiqi leave, Xu Huabiao continued to speak.

"General Jiang Shiqi's reaction speed is really fast, when my soldiers arrived, she was actually lined up." Xu Huabiao praised Jiang Shiqi.

"Now the defense near Chen Liu is mainly handed over to her...... I'm running out of hands. Li Xiuman sighed softly, and his gaze fell on the map again, "Although I don't want to say ......"

Speaking of this, Li Xiuman glanced to the side.

A few of the people next to him immediately left the hall.

There were only two people left in the hall, Xu Huabiao and Li Xiuman.

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it! As for emptying the hall like this? ”

"Because I regret this kind of thing, I can only say it to Lord Xu! I can't let anyone else hear it......" Li Xiuman shook his head with a wry smile.

"Regrets? What do you regret? ”

"I regret that I shouldn't have marched into Puyang to fight Jin Zhongguo in the first place."

“……”

Xu Huabiao finally held back the sentence "What did I say".

"If Kim Jong Kook was still in Puyang, I wouldn't be as embarrassed as I am now." Li Xiuman saw that Xu Huabiao didn't speak, but just smiled bitterly and continued, "It seems that ...... I can't stand it. ”

"Is it so serious?" Xu Huabiao's gaze fell on the map spread on the table.

"It's worse than you think." Li Xiuman sighed, "Li Yanhao's soldier ......"

At this moment, suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the hall.

Then, the door opened, and a familiar figure of Xu Huabiao walked in.

“…… Hua Biao? Why are you here? ”

“…… Second brother? Long time no see. ”

Xu Huabiao was a little embarrassed.

It was Guan Yunchang who entered the house.

"Yun Chang, why are you here?" Li Xiuman took over the words and asked Guan Yunchang with a smile.

“…… Prime Minister, I'm here to ask for war. Guan Yunchang gave Xu Huabiao a look that he would say later, and then arched his hand at Li Xiuman.

"No need to fight." Li Xiuman shook his head, "We're going to face Li Yanhao soon." It can't be delayed any longer. ”

"I just hope that the prime minister can bring the last general ...... this attack"

"That's nature!" Li Xiuman said with a smile, "Yun Chang rest assured, General Yun Chang will be of great use in this battle." ”

“…… Good. Hearing Li Xiuman say this, Guan Yunchang nodded.

"Although Lord Xu has come from afar, it just so happens that we are going to leave for the north tomorrow......"

"Let's just go together." Xu Huabiao smiled and nodded, "What is the current battle situation?" ”

"Li Yanhao sent his general Li Xiaoli to attack Baima Port, and he himself led a large army into Yanjin Port." Li Xiuman pointed on the map, "I must lead the troops to Yanjin as soon as possible." ”

“…… Lee Hyori went to Hakuba Port? ”

"Well, now Taeyeon is stationed in Hakuba Harbor with his troops, but it's ...... The limited number of troops may not be able to block Lee Hyori's attack. ”

“…… I'll take the troops to Hakuba...... Let Second Brother Guan come with me. Xu Huabiao said immediately.

"You're going to Hakuba?"

"Do you still want to defend the Yellow River? You are not Luoyang here, the Yellow River near Pinggang flows rapidly, and it is not easy to forcibly cross the river, you are ...... on this side," Xu Huabiao gestured on the map, "The Yellow River cannot be held." ”

"But once you give up the Yellow River, there will be no barrier to defend in the south!"

“…… What do you do with these things, your counsellors? Xu Huabiao felt that Li Xiuman had probably entered a state of entanglement, and now his mind was not clear, and there was no point in talking to him now.

“…… Come! Li Xiuman shouted outside the door, "Go and invite Xiujing, Xiche, and Changmin." ”

"Yes! Prime Minister! ”

The door should be very crisp.

After a while, all three arrived.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Mainly because of Zheng Xiujing and Xu Huabiao......

When they were in Xuzhou, the two of them actually broke up a little unhappily, coupled with the special relationship between the two, no one present did not know.

But now is not the time to talk about these things.

"The Yellow River is undefendable. Even, if Li Yanhao's army goes to attack, Jibei and Puyang are not cities that must be defended. Xu Huabiao pointed to the map and began to say: "A proper withdrawal to the south can lengthen his supply line, involve a lot of his troops, and reduce some frontal pressure, this is no problem, right?" ”

"South of the Yellow River, we have no danger to defend, if we are beaten by Li Yanhao's army, we will not have any geographical advantage." Shen Changmin shook his head and said.

"Then you think about it from another angle, compared to Li Yanhao, we are actually not afraid of being copied back." Xu Huabiao changed his sentence and said: "On our territory, Li Yanhao wants to bypass the front army and raid the rear, but it is not as convenient as our front army to bypass them and sneak attack their rear. ”

"That being said, Li Yanhao shouldn't be stupid enough to move the supply town south of the Yellow River, right?"

"Isn't his supply line extended?" Xu Huabiao said with a smile, "We will send heavy troops to protect the grain road." ”

“…… But it doesn't involve many of his soldiers, does it? Kim Hee-cheol interjected, "After all, he mobilized 200,000 soldiers. ”

"A little less positive is a little." Xu Huabiao shook his head, "How many soldiers does the Prime Minister have in total?" ”

“…… What Lord Xu said is true. Kim Hee-cheol nodded.

"But if we just withdraw our troops and recycle like this, it's too cheap Li Yanhao, right?" Zheng Xiujing couldn't hold back, and interjected, "You have to make him pay something." ”

"That's for sure. It is appropriate to give up some places and take advantage of the geographical advantages to eliminate some of Li Yanhao's vital forces. Xu Huabiao said seriously, "If you can replace Li Yanhao's 50,000 people with Jibei and Puyang, this battle will basically be won." ”

"It would be better if we could dispose of some of Li Yanhao's generals and make him have fewer people available." Zheng Xiujing nodded.

After speaking, he looked at Xu Huabiao, and the meaning was obvious.
