Chapter 485: Consumption

In the Jin army camp, Huan Wen was also looking at the cavalry of the Liang State, but he didn't know that it was Li Yue himself.

"Da Sima, the enemy cavalry has retreated." Meng Kai returned to the camp to hand over the order.

Huan Wen's eyes were burning and he didn't say a word.

Meng Kai is Xun's son-in-law, Xun Xian was killed, he also plummeted, and he was used by Huan Wen because of his courageous reputation.

Of course, Meng Kai's bottom line, it is impossible for Huan Wen not to know.

"What does General Meng think about winning over this?" Huan Wen retracted his gaze and said in a cordial tone.

"If we fight a decisive battle in the plains of the Central Plains, our army is not an opponent, but if it is between the Jianghuai and the Yangtze River, there is at least a fifty percent chance of victory." Meng Kai told the truth.

"Is it only fifty percent?"

Li ...... Swept through the north in the past few years, there was the opportunity of Sun Wu, the strategy of Wei Wu, the bloody battle of the Liang army, the crown of the world, fifty percent of the chance of victory or the command of the great Sima, the soldiers with their lives, can be realized! ”

"Bold!" The general behind him scolded.

"It's okay to be loyal to the ear, General Meng is loyal to the king, I know it, and someone will be rewarded with ten catties of gold and ten famous knives." Huan Wen waved his hand generously, and then untied his cloak and put it on for Meng Kai.

"Xie Da Sima!" Meng Kai was grateful.

In Jiangdong, it is difficult to move an inch without a backer, and Huan Wen is definitely a person who cherishes talents.

However, this kind of behavior caused a wave of jealousy among the other generals.

"If you are all as loyal and brave as General Meng, why worry about the immortality of the north?" Huan Wen glanced at the generals, his gaze majestic.

And this sentence made Meng Kai like a man.

The generals present are either Jiangdong scholars or nobles in the court, and there is naturally a layer of estrangement.

No matter how much Meng Kai played with his life on the battlefield, he could never cross the gap between the shishu.

"The last general and the northern captives are inseparable, and they will fight to the death!" The crowd replied.

"Hahaha, that's great!" Huan Wen waved his hand.

Meng Kai retreated as if he had been granted amnesty.

Xi Chao stared at Meng Kai's back and said, "Why fight with him? The Liang army has been fighting for many years, and the grain and grass are not enough, so they only need to defend for a few months, and when their food is exhausted and the army's morale is chaotic, and then attack it, they will be able to capture and kill Li Yue and recover Shenzhou! ”

Xi Chao only relied on various battle reports to deduce that there was not much grain and grass in Liang State.

One of the main reasons is that there are nearly 200,000 Black Cloud elites, and this time Li Yue went south, only bringing 70,000.

Huan Wen took out a secret letter from the desk, stroked his beard and smiled, "The guest is really my son!" ”

These words made all the generals stunned.

If Xi Chao is Zhang Liang, then who is Henkel?

Xizhonglang Xie Wan and Beizhonglang looked at each other, and they were silent, both of them were promoted by Huan Wen to envelop Xie and Xi.

Huan Wen's route was the same as Sima Yi's, and without the support of the scholars, it was difficult to get to the last step.

Xi Chao was shocked in his heart, but he shook off the secret letter unconsciously, the letter was sent by Yecheng, mentioning that the grain and grass of the Liang army would support for four months at most, as long as it was supported, the Liang army would definitely retreat, and the Jin army would at least recover the entire Huainan.

"It's so worry-free, you can wait for the right time." Xi Chao glanced at his cousin Xi Tan.

One of the two was under Huan Wen's command, and the other was on the side of the Jiangdong Shi clan, and they did not affect each other.

Huan Wen got up from the soft couch, "Yes, Li Yue went to Jianghuai in person, but the bird entered the cage, and the heavens gave me great merit, how could I miss it?" ”

Defeating Li Yue, even if the Jiangdong Shi clan does not support it, it will not stop him.

With this Northern Expedition, the power inside and outside Jiangdong was in the palm of his hand, and the Jiangdong Shi clan could only swallow their anger, and even Xie An, who was guarding Jingkou, sent a letter of resignation.

Huan Wen repeatedly retained him and recruited him as a marching Sima, Xie An did not give up, secluded in the mountains and forests, and took the singer to indulge in the mountains and rivers......

Shouchun City.

As soon as Li Yue returned to Shouchun with his cavalry, he received a secret letter from Cui Hong from Yecheng, and Yang Luo also waited for a long time.

After the army went south, all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods were ready to move, Cui Hong re-found the clues, and all the clues re-headed to the Liu family in Zhongshan.

Cui Hong believes that the person behind the scenes is Liu Qi, only he has such great influence, many officials are his old subordinates, and they are familiar with the operation of the DPRK and China.

A plaque of the Liu family in Zhongshan stands, coupled with Liu Kun's identity as a son, can stir up many people's hearts.

In that year, Chu Pi's Northern Expedition, Liu Qi was also the first to respond, and the people of Qingxu and Yanyu went south to Jiangdong, but unfortunately Chu Pi's mud couldn't support the wall, and was scared back by Li Nong's 20,000 cavalry, Liu Qi defected to Jiangdong and had to surrender to the Heiyun Army.

Scenes of the past come to mind, when Liu Kun resolutely resisted the Hu people in the north and was loyal to the Jin family, how could his heirs forget their father's will?

If the north and the south do not fight, they may still be good subjects of the Great Liang, and once the north and the south are at war, some people can't help but feel pity for Jiangdong.

Don't say it, but keep making small movements behind it.

The Honglu officials' system was effective for ordinary people and soldiers, but it had little effect on them.

But when you think about it, something is wrong.

Liu Qi may have Jiangdong in his heart, but he will never force Liu Qun to kill, and in the past few years, he has a lot of understanding of his personality, so he will not do this.

Li Yue replied with a letter: "The matter is serious, the Liu family should not be moved lightly, when there is conclusive evidence, secretly probe again, and do not let it be detected." ”

"If there is any movement in Yecheng, the minister suspects that Huan Wen already knows the truth of our army, so he will fortify the wall and clear the wilderness, and besiege the city to help!" Yang slightly arched his hand.

Li Yue was shocked, the people behind the scenes will not be idle, and they surfaced out of thin air, and they must have passed on information to be detected by Cui Hong.

No wonder Huan Wen put on such a posture in Jiangdong.

"Ordered Zhang Oyster to lead 10,000 elites to challenge! Gao Yun was on the side. Li Yue restrained his chaotic thoughts, and all problems had to be solved on the battlefield after all.

The two sides are facing each other, but the confrontation is by no means static.

The defenders of Hefei City need to know that there are reinforcements outside the city, and the Black Cloud Army also needs to go into battle to fight, otherwise their sharpness will decline.

"Yui!" The herald galloped away.

Then, bursts of cheers rang out outside the camp, and the Black Cloud soldiers waited for this moment for a long time.

Li Yue personally went to the frontline to spy on the front line, did not close his eyes for a day and a night, lay on the soft couch, and fell asleep unconsciously.

I thought about it day and night, and I returned to the first days of Heiyun Mountain in my dream, eating meat and drinking wine with Meng Kai and Cui Jin, and there was no hunger or cold......

When I woke up, it was already three poles in the morning.

After washing his face and eating something, the battle report from Hefei came back.

"Your Majesty, General Zhang cooperated with General Gao to break three enemy camps in a row, beheaded the Jin generals Wang Ke and Sun Sheng, and killed more than 3,000 enemies!" The scout reported from outside the hall.

"How many casualties did our army have?"

Zhang Oyster is really violent, and as soon as he makes a move, it is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

"There were more than 2,000 casualties...... The enemy army was surrounded on three sides, and General Zhang was exhausted, so he retreated under the advice of General Gao......"

Kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself.

Li Yue listened to it, and felt that he was still at a loss, and the elite led by Zhang Hao could only fight like this, which shows that the Jin army was heavily defended.

It seems that it is difficult to make progress on the east road, and we can only hope that Wang Meng will win on the west road.

After Zhang Hao retreated, Li Yue sent several groups of men and horses to attack and provoke, trying to lure out the Jin army.

But the Jin army has been standing still, sticking to it, and it is just consuming.
