Under the howling wind, Zhongwu City, which has been endowed with poetry and poetry by the years, is covered with corpses, and the stench wafts out three miles away in the wind.

At the request of Meng Wei, countless servant troops marched through it, packed up the robes that had died in battle, and then collected the Dongyi people who were piled up under the city wall as well, and sent Zhong Ji to the Dongyi camp with all kinds of items that could represent their identity.

In the matter of dealing with the farmland and the people, the two sides can respect each other as guests, because of hunger, he has learned to treat each other morally, but the hatred in his bones has not diminished.

War is not a cold kill number, Meng Wei is not only a general, he is also the king of a country, the earl of the Great Shang, so in addition to how to defeat Dongyi, how to subdue their land is also considered.

The army approached Zhongwu City step by step, and finally stopped at the garrison camp ten miles away, Yu Hualong and Lu Renjie with 100,000 people stationed in the east of Zhongwu, Meng Wei with the main force stationed in the east of Zhongwu, echoing with the city, forming a corner of each other.

Zhongwu City and outside the city are full of controversy about the new commander of the Zhengyi Wang Division, Meng Jibo, there is no first, there is no second, at any time, young people will always be questioned by the old men, no matter how many merits you have made, they will look at these people who are far inferior to them in the same way as children.

Especially this young man, who rushed to everyone's heads at once, held a lot of power, and won the heart of the king.

Of course, there are many admirers, and there are also many people who can let go of their jealousy and accept it calmly, so the many eastern princes of Zhongwu City slowly divided into two groups of people, similar to Jiang Huan Chu's disdain, and there are also the princes of Gu Yue who also worship young heroes.

Countless scouts shuttled between Zhong Wu and the Dongyi army, and Meng Wei sat on the main seat, silently looking at the map, and repeatedly thinking about countermeasures.

After thinking hard for a long time, when he was about to talk to people habitually, Meng Wei found that there was a more pitiful place in this expedition, that is, he did not bring a person who was good at strategy with the army, Jiang Shang and Wu Cheng stayed in Meng Ji's governance, and Ji Dan, who had just been hot, was personally left in Chaoge by him.

In the past, whenever my thinking was stagnant, I would subconsciously find a person with excellent wisdom to tell my guesses, and the two of them would plan and improve the details before implementing them.

Now, in the entire Zhengyi King Division, there is no one who can discuss these strategic issues?

Looking for the king? Then it's better to talk to Wu Dang, he can guess how the king will deal with him.

"Give me 10,000 fine horses, you just have to follow me."

It's not that Di Xin doesn't know the art of war, he is simply lazy, and he simply thinks that he can really overturn everything.

After someone in the barracks helped him think about these things, he directly let himself go, anyway, it was Meng Wei's business to formulate a strategy, what did it have to do with him? All he had to do was raise his hand and raise his knife, and then slash people.

Now there are 200,000 troops outside the city, 100,000 inside the city, and a total of 300,000 troops, and the biggest headache is not how to fight a decisive battle with the Dongyi army, but how to mobilize the military forces of the two sides, and then achieve a strategic goal that can maximize benefits, which is his biggest headache.

Moreover, they all retreated for hundreds of miles, blocking the main road from Zhongwu to Surabaya, and they did not want to fight with them at all.

"Dai Li, quickly summon the whole army to come to my camp to discuss matters."

"Remember, none of the generals in Zhongwu City and in the east of the city are missing, and all of them are invited."

"No!"

There was an echo of Dai Li outside the camp, Meng Wei retracted his mind, lowered his head and silently looked at the geographical chronicles and many matters of Donglu that filled the table, and then gently rolled up the map, put away the bamboo slips, and silently waited for the arrival of the commanders of the various armies.

First of all, what he considered was the state of Xu, which was inextricably linked with Xu Yi's vassal states, and its main city Xuzhou has been a key area connecting the north and south since ancient times.

It's just that Xu Yi and the earl of Xu State are in the same line, although they are divided and incompatible, but Meng Wei always feels that it is not so simple, there is no family affection in politics, and the best way to maintain political relations is also family affection.

The first to enter the camp tent was the king who had been in the barracks all day, and after arriving at this time, he was not polite, and directly moved Meng Wei's table to the side of the main seat, only half a position apart.

The subsequent lords and the princes of Donglu looked at the uncle who knelt beside the king, and was a little stunned, sure enough, as everyone in the city said, the king was really very honored for this uncle, but it is not surprising, counting forward, this is exactly what the ancestors of the great Shang liked to do, each generation of the Shang king's subordinates, there are one or two extremely special existences, there are great nobles, and there are also people who are born in slaves.

At least in the eyes of many people, the new team of important ministers seemed to be beginning to take a stand, so Bao Guo and Xu Guogongzi, who were quite disdainful earlier, immediately stepped forward to talk to Meng Jibo.

It was not until noon that the first legion meeting that mixed forces of all parties was officially started with the arrival of Jiang Huan Chu, the marquis of Dongbo.

Di Xin raised the wine and asked with concern, "Why is Uncle Ji such a big battle?" Is it because you are distressed by the war? ”

Meng Wei looked at the people sitting opposite each other in front of him, and did not shy away: "It is indeed a little distressing, I have to say, this Jianghuai land is really a blessed land, the waterways are connected, and there are fertile plains, no wonder it can raise such a large population of Dongyi departments, but the place where Dongyi is stationed in front is a wild land intertwined with mountains and jungles, and the Dongyi army has capable people, they have deployed heavy troops in the lower reaches of Surabaya, Zhongyang City and Heitao City, the north is a big river, and the south can be on the bank of Hongze." ”

"Alas, my Chaoge army is close to the north, and the battle between mountains and forests and water is far inferior to that of Dongyi, so Meng Wei is very distressed, how can I use the minimum price as much as possible to win the greatest victory."

Regarding the terrain south of Zhongwu, this group of Donglu princes and courtiers naturally knew in their hearts that it was a Laipi landform that could not be defeated and escaped into the forest and into the lake, which is why the Donglu Alliance has not been able to take Dongyi.

In fact, from the time when he crossed the Honghe River before, Meng Wei had an intuition, this battle is not easy to fight, Dongyi is like a loach, slippery and not slippery, as long as there is a slight mistake, he will run if he sells his teammates, and to deal with such an opponent, it requires high-intensity sports warfare, or several times the strength of the enemy's army, in order to have a certain effect.

Now it seems that there is almost no advantage in terms of geography and people, not that you can't win, but that there is no value in winning, and when Chaoge turns around, the opposite side will roar out again, and press the Donglu hammer again.

"Uncle Ji, why are you so confident, you will definitely win?"

The person who spoke was Xu Zirconium, the son of Xu Guo, who seemed to have grasped the core issue in Meng Wei's statement, this young commander was a little arrogant, what he was worried about was how to fight big with a small one, and he didn't worry about winning or losing at all, which was really arrogant.

Meng Wei glanced at Xu Zirconium, with a sad face on his face, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Xu Guo and Xu Yi, with the same surname and the same clan, he didn't know what kind of changes had happened in Xu Guo, and he could actually Donglu people believe in Xu Guo, but just as Dong Bohou questioned Meng Wei, he was also questioning Xu Guo.

In other words, we don't know each other, you don't know my heart, and I don't know the past of Xu Guo, this is a gap and distrust, and it is precisely this reason that also leads to Meng Wei's suspicion of Xu Guo.

This time he summoned all the main generals, in addition to discussing, in fact, he also wanted to confirm the conjecture in his heart.

"Xu Gongzi, do you know what kind of tactics Meng is best at?"

"This ......" Xu Zi thought for a long time, and seriously recalled the various achievements of Ji Bo since he became famous, but the question was sudden, and he couldn't figure out the meaning of the coach for a while, so he could only answer stubbornly.

"Extremely good at trickery!"

"What kind of trickery is it? What is sophistry? ”

Xu Zi smacked his tongue a little, everyone said that Ji Bo was good at trickery, but no one seemed to have ever said what trickery he was good at, and what trickery was. Now that Uncle Ji asked, Xu Gongzi was directly stunned.

"Yes, what is sophistry? What is Jibo good at? ”

Meng Wei is a little funny, Ye Gong is a good dragon, so many people in the world study his tactics and combat style, and they all say that he uses soldiers like a god, but God is there, let them summarize and can't say that he is ugly, and the combat effectiveness of the Donglu Legion is really worrying.

"Meng is good at raiding around the rear, cutting off the grain road, blocking the back road, and forcing the other party to force a decisive battle, does Gongzi Xu ever know how Zhu Chengbo died?"

Xu Zi suddenly realized, his right hand clenched his fist and hammered his left palm and echoed: "Yes, just now Uncle Ji asked suddenly, Zirconium was confused, Uncle Ji seized Yun City, ran thousands of miles to attack the city of Gu, and the story of the city, Zirconium has also heard that it is really a divine soldier descending from the sky, and it is impossible to prevent it!" ”

"So, Meng thought of an excellent tactic, it is better to send a large army to secretly cross the branches of the big river, and then follow the Surabaya, bypass Hongze and the dense forest, cut off Dongyi's back road and grain road, and then the army is approaching layer by layer, closing the door and beating the dog, what do you think?"

Everyone was silent, this is not easy to accept, if you are an ordinary person, it must be cynical, what kind of road is this picking, it is drilling the forest and crossing the river, it takes so much effort to go deep alone, just on the road, I am afraid that a large number of people will die, and the lonely air hangs behind the enemy, and if you are not careful, you are afraid that the whole army will be wiped out.

No one was willing to open their mouths to agree, and even Di Xin looked at Meng Wei with some suspicion, is it really a trick to eat? Don't change the tactics at all?

A member of the hall, the young general in Tsing Yi, came out and asked: "Uncle Ji is good at surprise attacks, but this is Donglu, and the opposite is Dongyi. We have many lakes and forests here, but it is not the Beihai where there is no way back, even if you really cut off the back road, they hide in Daze, so what can they do? ”

Meng Wei's heart sank, good boy, he still had some insight in understanding the problem of this plan at a glance, so Uncle Ji, who was sitting in the deputy seat, pointed at this young general arrogantly, and asked dissatisfiedly: "Who is this yellow-mouthed child?" ”

The little general was furious, and he reminded himself, how can this uncle speak hateful words to each other? Where is this the manifestation of benevolence, righteousness and virtuousness, at first glance, it looks like a young man who is powerful.

"Humph! I am under the tent of Dong Bohou, and Jiang Wenhuan is also. ”

"Oh~~ It turned out to be the baby son of Dong Bohou who came to have a son late, disrespectful and disrespectful!" Meng Wei suddenly realized, and immediately faced the suspicion and stunned look on his own king's face, and scolded loudly: "You are just a son, how many battles have you fought?" Have you ever heard of the names of Yuan Futong and Su Hu? There are two marquis under Meng's revenant, does Jiang Xiaogongzi have any commendable achievements? ”

Jiang Wenhuan was so angry that his teeth itched, and he was just about to get angry, when he saw the king on the main throne scolding contemptuously: "Presumptuous, what is your identity? Dare to be rude to the widowed Meng Jibo! ”

"Jiang Bohou, is this how you discipline your son?"

Everyone was a little dumbfounded, how could a good and decent discussion become such a-for-tat situation? Isn't this what we were talking about just now?

In front of everyone's eyes, Jiang Wenhuan sat back in his position aggrievedly, with a cloud of anger in his chest, and his eyes stared fiercely at the benevolent and righteous Meng Jibo in front of the stage, he really looked down on this young man of the same age, and felt that the world misinformed and made the shaft famous, but he never thought that the gap between the ideal and the reality was so big, how could Uncle Ji be such an arrogant and pedantic villain?

I saw Meng Wei look like a villain was rampant, and read out loudly: "Okay, I have made up my mind, Xu Zi listens to the order, you know this place very well, stay later, and discuss with me the people who will intersperse the guidance among the armies of my big business, and help my army to attack around the rear." Others, disperse! ”

The commander's order has been issued, Jiang Wenhuan didn't want to stay for a moment, and immediately left angrily, while the elderly Jiang Huanchu handed Di Xin a confused look, as if asking, this is the important minister you selected? That's it?

The commanders of the allied forces of the princes of Donglu also seemed to be dreaming, and they were in a hurry when they came, and as a result, they only talked for less than half a pillar of incense, so they had to go back?

Seeing that the king and Uncle Ji were talking happily, some shook their heads and sighed, as if they were a little worried, and some secretly rejoiced, as if they were watching a farce.

After a short time, only the main singer of the dynasty was left sitting in the tent with a confused face, and the zirconium of Xu Guogongzi with a confused face.

I saw Meng Wei laughing, and said a little rampantly: "There were a lot of people just now, Meng Wei is not good at telling all the true thoughts in his heart, and I hope you will forgive me!" ”

"Whew~~"

That's right.,I thought the protagonist had been replaced just now.,It was originally a wise character.,Suddenly like a retarded person.,Arrogance said some unintelligible riddles.。

Xu Zi also suddenly realized.

"Young Master Xu, after crossing the mountains and mountains, he has to forcibly cross the tributaries of the big river, how can Meng be so unwise? This is just a pretext. ”

"Please also ask Xu Guogongzi to give my army a group of boatmen and people who know the way, let's not go north, just go directly into the lake, let's go through Hongze!" Go around to Dongyi's back and cut off the road. ”

"Huh? Or do you want to go around the back? ”

"What, what tricks does Childe have to teach me?"

Xu Zi looked at Uncle Ji who was full of murder in his eyes, his heart trembled for a while, and he hurriedly said that he didn't dare, honestly took the military order, and then retreated, but he was still muttering to himself.

"It's still not worthy of the name, will this uncle only go around this trick? How does it come and go? It seemed like this when he was in Honghe before, but it was really strange, why could Ji Bo keep winning with such a simple and old-fashioned tactic? ”

Cheng Biting Jin has three axes, in fact, there are only so many tactics throughout the ages, just like playing cards, technology is very important, and sometimes the factor of psychological warfare is also very important.
