Chapter 247: Li Xu and Shen Liang

"Wait a while for me to finish writing this thing, you take it and immediately tell His Highness, let him garrison the troops in these two places as soon as possible, the time can't be delayed any longer, Jiuping's army may come over at some point." Although we destroyed a lot of things in Tanglin when we retreated, if it took too long to repair and stabilize the situation in Tanglin, Jiuping would not be able to wait foolishly until we repelled the Great Prince and freed up our hands to strengthen their defenses before launching an attack. Li Xu said as he wrote on the paper.

"So general, what are you writing about now?" Cheng Cheng asked.

"The deployment of troops, you will directly show it to His Highness when the time comes. Let him arrange it like this, and be fast. That old thing, I guess I'm going to be dissuaded again. As Li Xu spoke, the speed of his subordinates began to increase, the ink splashed, the handwriting flew and the phoenix danced, and it took less than a quarter of an hour to write a brief troop deployment arrangement.

Let's talk about it here, in fact, Shen Liang is not old, although he is the older of several princes and princesses, but he is only about 40 years old, just because he is older, his face is full of wrinkles, and he has white hair since he was a child, and his body has always been hunchbacked, and he looks like a little old man, so his subordinates generally call him old man or old man in private, like Li Xu, a high-ranking and short-tempered person, although he usually calls the old man, but when Shen Liang does something that she is not happy about, She usually calls the old thing or the old stupid donkey.

"General, isn't this troop deployment arrangement a little too hasty? Do you need to copy another copy from your subordinates? Cheng Cheng asked as he looked at the ink-stained troop deployment arrangement.

"No need, the situation is urgent, send it over as soon as possible, and by the way, inquire about the news from the north." Li Xu hurriedly waved his hand, "In addition, I heard that Jiuping has begun to attack Qingling Pass, and when you come back, show me the battle report from the front line." ”

"Got it, my subordinates will arrange it." Cheng Cheng took over the deployment arrangements and hurried to the palace.

Came to the gate of the palace, the guards here have long been used to it, since returning from the front line, Cheng Cheng has to come to the palace several times a day, in addition to appealing to her boss Cheng Cheng, what she did is to ask to strengthen the defense of Yanmen Mountain, so these guards opened the door when they saw her from afar.

"Why are the doors wide open?" Cheng Cheng asked.

"My subordinates have seen you from afar, so I opened it for you in advance." The guard nodded.

"Open the door when you see me? What if I'm an assassin in disguise? Don't even interrogate me what I'm here for? Cheng Cheng asked sharply.

"My lord, you're joking, aren't you here to increase your troops in Yanmen Mountain?" A guard said with a hippie smile, but was pulled by the captain next to him, and the guard quickly restrained his smile and stood up straight, with a serious face.

"What are you doing with the door closed?" Cheng Cheng snorted and asked.

"Shall we open or close the door?" The guard asked.

"Listen to the prince, do you still need me to teach this kind of thing?"

"Yes, then the prince told us to close the door."

"A prince, with the door closed all day long, I don't know what to do inside? Now that Qingyuan has become like this, if you don't hurry up and think of a way, you will know that you are nesting in the palace......"

"Yes, it's useless for you to tell us this, then we can't take care of it." The guard said, but was pulled by the captain again.

The captain of the guard can see it, this girl is angry, find them here to be angry, the best choice at this time is to say what to do, quickly send this plague god away, if she says the wrong word to make her entangled, it will be more uncomfortable than being scolded now.

"My lord, aren't you going to see the prince? Hurry up and go in, don't delay things on us, if this is a big delay, a few of us can't afford it, if you see where we are not doing well, you can come out and talk to us after you discuss things. The captain of the guard said.

"Okay, let's keep guarding, and I won't grind with you." Cheng Cheng finally remembered that he still had a task on him, so he hummed and walked into the palace.

Shen Liang was checking the battle report in the study at this time, and the situation on the battlefield in the north was finally stabilized, but just now there was news from Qingling Pass that Jiuping was attacking Qingling Pass, and the eight thousand defenders in Qingling Pass took turns to rest and recuperate, so they could be regarded as holding here, and there was no further movement on the opposite side at present.

For Shen Liang, if there is no movement in the north, it is the best movement, because he knows the family background of the eldest prince, and the formula is stopped at this time, which proves that the eldest prince is really weak in succession. But not in the south, he recently checked the battle reports of Qizhou and Tanglin, as long as Jiuping's offensive slowed down, it proved that they were brewing a bigger offensive.

For example, Jixian, Jiuping besieged there for nearly a month, just when everyone thought that Jiuping's offensive was weak, they suddenly broke through, and while taking Jixian, they broke through to Qizhou Mansion in just a few days. For another example, when besieging Tanglin Mansion and defending the three cities, they were silent for several months, just to recuperate, wait for the opportunity, and fight a war of annihilation. Now that they are fighting Qingling Pass, it seems that this is the case, and the fight is tepid, but no one knows when they will really attack.

Coupled with the assassination of Li Feiqiu, Jiuping's side is going crazy and wants revenge at this time, and the current offensive may be just a test, and he is now considering whether to withdraw some troops from the northern battlefield to reinforce Qingling Pass.

At this time, Cheng Cheng walked into his study, and now he has a headache when he sees this person, because she has been talking to him about Li Xu's reinstatement and the increase of troops in Yanmen Mountain recently, which makes him annoyed.

"Your Highness, this is a plan for the deployment of troops, written by the general, please consider it carefully." Cheng Cheng said.

"I know, you've been here several times, I'll arrange it." Shen Liang sighed and said.

"Your Highness, you'd better take a look at this plan, it was made by the general and me after a field trip, I think what the general said makes sense, the enemy really may choose this way to raid." Cheng Cheng said.

"I know......" Shen Liang had no choice but to pick up the plan and pretend to look at it, in fact, he didn't have the heart to care about this matter at all, not to mention that Cheng Cheng had mentioned it to himself several times during this time, and he could memorize the content of the plan. Let's just say that this plan, it is full of large ink stains and quite scribbled fonts, if you don't bother to think about it, you really can't really see what is written on it, plus the battle situation is not good, he doesn't have the heart to check these things, "Okay, I know, the situation in the north has stabilized, and I will draw troops from there when the time comes, okay, that's it." ”

"Your Highness." Cheng Cheng nodded and turned to leave.

The moment Cheng Cheng walked out of the study, Shen Liang crumpled the plan and threw it aside, "What is it written about?" And more troops? If I had troops, would I not have increased them? ”

Maybe it was because he felt that things were done, Cheng Cheng was in a much better mood, and he didn't bother the guards when he went out, which made a few guards at the door breathe a sigh of relief.

After returning to Li Xu's mansion, Li Xu was still waiting for news there, so Cheng Cheng explained the matter to her in detail, "General, His Royal Highness should be like Yanmen Mountain to increase troops, so you don't have to worry." ”

"He's fooling you here again, I don't have any plans to move troops from the north. He didn't even look at that battle plan. Li Xu didn't even raise his head, "I guess he just threw away the plan." ”。

"General, I think His Highness may just not have time to read it for the time being, maybe he will read it after he finishes reading the battle report." Cheng Cheng said.

"He didn't even have the idea of looking at it, and the first paragraph I wrote was a meaningless, illogical paragraph, and if he really read it, he would be able to find out that it was wrong even if he glanced at it." Li Xu rolled up the map, "I'll go there myself, the old thing is stubborn." ”
