188 Soldiers

Since Pu Jinzhong had basically achieved his goal, Lin Jianyue immediately ordered the main force of Li Fei's cavalry, which had been prepared long ago, to go south from Chenzhou first, bypassing Kaifeng Mansion, and then through Sun Zhengyi's defense area, he began to secretly march in the direction of Suqian Sizhou, which was close to Jingdong Road, while Li Jiyong led the guards cavalry to constantly patrol back and forth in Xuzhou, Yancheng, and Chenzhou, and the greater the momentum, the better, in order to confuse Kaifeng.

At the same time, he ordered the Xuzhou regimental battalion to merge into Sun Zhengyi's Xinyang army, leaving only the newly recruited new army and Sun Hao's cavalry to fight in the pretense of fighting around Mangdang Mountain and Xuzhou to continue to confuse the enemy, Sun Zhengyi led the main force to bypass Xuzhou in advance and immediately returned south to Hongxian in the east of Suzhou, near Huaiyang Prefecture, to join Li Fei's cavalry.

In order to completely exterminate the main force of Jingdong Road led by Hachi's younger brother Hahe, it is necessary to determine the core general, this candidate can only be Sun Zhengyi, first, he understands Hachi Hahe, and his personal ability is there, and second, since the matter started by him, it must also be ended by him, and the credit still belongs to Sun Zhengyi.

Li Ziyang did not return to the southwest of Beijing, but directly waited for Sun Zhengyi and Li Fei in Hongxian as Sun Zhengyi's marching senator, the most important thing is that this battle must use Pu Jinzhong's army to lure Hahe out, otherwise it will be difficult to find Hahe's main force, Sun Zhengyi needs to solve Hahe quickly, and it can't be delayed for too long, otherwise there will be more variables. Li Ziyang could just help coordinate the actions of Pu Jinzhong's army, and he had secretly met with several of Pu Jinzhong's generals, otherwise their confidence would have been greatly reduced.

The east side is moving, Kaifeng Mansion will not watch dryly, Li Chongshan hastily rested for a few days, that is, in mid-December, when the snow was falling, he led hundreds of thousands of troops to the south and directly began to attack Lin Jianyue's Yancheng.

At the head of Yancheng City, countless guards surrounded Lin Jianyue, Liu Bingyun and others, Lin Jianyue said with a helpless smile: "Li Chongshan is still a hundred miles away!" Look at you like you're facing the enemy, you're too timid! will make Li Chongshan see the joke, if Li Chongshan wants to meet me in the city for two drinks, can it be like this? Don't say it's my personal guard when you go out. ”

Liu Bingyun said solemnly: "This time is different from when I met Su Hedai in Jiaxian, Su Hedai still wants to surrender His Highness!" The Enemy Intelligence Department has heard the rumors, and it is said that Li Chongshan doesn't care much about whether he can defeat His Highness's army now, but he cares about His Highness very much, and this time he can't let His Highness do such a thing. ”

Lin Jianyue said regretfully: "I heard that Li Chongshan is not much older than me, with thick eyebrows and broad face, and he looks like an emperor, I just want to see what everyone thinks the emperor should look like, I have seen the one in Jianning, and I feel that it is not like an emperor and more like a landlord." ”

Liu Bingyun said angrily: "Who said that Li Chongshan has the appearance of an emperor? I've seen it, it's a mountain king! Nine times out of ten, whoever says this is a traitor. His Royal Highness has the appearance of an emperor, which is recognized by everyone. Besides, it is easy for His Highness to see what Li Chongshan looks like, and in the future, His Highness's army will capture him, and His Highness can look at it however he wants. ”

Lin Jianyue couldn't cry or laugh: "Mr. Liu, your self-confidence is a little inflated!" Now it's Li Chongshan's hundreds of thousands of troops who want to capture me. ”

"So what? Yancheng is the 100,000 people of the Guards, which is enough for him Li Chongshan to drink a pot, as long as Sun Zhengyi and Li Fei come back, maybe Li Chongshan can be asked to pour wine for His Royal Highness immediately. ”

Batusu was a little worried, and His Majesty suddenly changed his mind not to attack Liu Jiahao's Wuwei army in the south, but instead to attack Yancheng, which was in the middle of Longjie's Wuwei army, Batusu thought that this was by no means the best strategy.

Batusu knew that this was only because Lin Jianyue was in Yuncheng, and he could also be sure that the strength and preparation of the city defense of Yancheng were extraordinary.

Lin Jianyue is a bit ruthless, he often uses himself as bait, and every time someone is fooled, he fully grasps the weakness in human nature, Su Hedai is like this, he is like this, and His Majesty is like this.

But it was Lin Jianyue's most elite 100,000 guards guarding the weir city! Since Lin Jianyue is here, whether it is city defense or materials, it must have been prepared and perfected a long time ago, and Batusu is worried that it will evolve into a protracted siege and siege battle, the longer the time, the more variables, and the more unfavorable it will be to himself.

I hope that the Immortal Heaven will favor Dameng! Just like His Majesty said, the non-stop attack on Yuncheng will put Lin Jianyue in danger at any time, and the Wuwei Army of the Long Jie Army will definitely not be able to come to the rescue in the end, as long as they dare to come out, including Li Fei's 80,000 cavalry, they will definitely be annihilated in the field by the elite Dameng cavalry.

But Batusu knew that there was little hope, even in the situation in Hedong, he did not see Lin Jianyue's subordinates come to the rescue, which shows that Lin Jianyue has a strong control over his subordinate troops.

However, at this time, the common strategy of harassing his rear by the rangers can play a big role, Batusu does not have the luxury of hoping to grab many things, but it can deal a heavy blow to Lin Jianyue's troops and the morale of the people, and it is not impossible for a miracle to appear.

On the rapid march, Son Zhengyi looked over and over the maps of Huaiyang Mansion and the surrounding Suzhou, Sizhou, and Haizhou in the south of Jingdong Road, and gradually had a plan in his heart.

Huaiyang Mansion is the Huaiyang Army garrison that was destroyed more than ten years ago, its east is Haizhou, the south is Si County, and the west is its own location Suzhou, Huaiyang Mansion is the very obvious protrusion of Jingdong East Road embedded in Huaidong Road.

Sun Zhengyi knew that now that his identity had not been exposed, Hahe would not pay too much attention to Suzhou, the area where his main force was located in the west, and the focus was on Pu Jinzhong's 200,000 army, and Sizhou in the south had no army except for the garrison, which could not be hidden, and Haizhou in the east was already in the hands of the Hu people themselves, so Hahe's army could only be in the three places of Xiapi, Suqian and Muyang in Haizhou.

Where is Pu Jinzhong's main force? In the Lianshui area to the south of Haizhou, its intention to attack Haizhou is very obvious, and the first place to attack is no other place than Muyang, and it is a place that must be captured, otherwise once it penetrates into Haizhou, the back road will be cut off.

As for whether to attack Huaiyang Mansion to the east or continue to attack to the north after defeating Muyang, it doesn't matter, according to Sun Zhengyi's understanding of Hahe, once Pu Jinzhong begins to attack Muyang, Hahe will surround it with all his strength and annihilate Pu Jinzhong on the spot under Muyang City, so it seems that Muyang City must be full of foot soldiers, and the main force of cavalry is definitely located in Xiapi and Suqian in Huaiyang Mansion.

His Highness in Yuncheng is in danger, hundreds of thousands of troops are besieging him, and he will not leave much time to maneuver with Hahe on Jingdong Road. Son Masayoshi finally understood why His Highness had to spend great efforts to protect and instigate Pu Jinzhong's army, and he was very convinced. Because only by using Pujin's loyal army as bait can Hahe's army be lured out, the entire Jingdong Road can be cleared at one time, Li Chongshan can be caught off guard, and Li Chongshan's elite troops can be left in the Central Plains as much as possible, and they can still lose their righteousness. Although he will not be so clear about the details, the general direction is absolutely correct, and it is indeed much better than his original plan to sit back and watch Pu Jinzhong fall and take advantage of his unpreparedness to attack and ambush Hahe.

Son Zhengyi felt a lot of pressure in his heart and had a great sense of urgency, because all this was His Royal Highness gambling with his own safety, if he didn't achieve his goal, let Hahe run away or most of the main cavalry force ran away, what face would he have to see His Royal Highness King Yan?
