Chapter Eighty-Seven: Every Inch of Land Must Be Contested

With the surprise attack of the Liang army, the Liao State was destroyed in an instant, and the Baili Jin in the Baishi City chose not to move, missing the great fighter in vain, which also indirectly led to the balance between the Liang and Chu Liang States, which were originally of equal strength. Liang State, which has a larger territory and troops, and has a deeper background, regains its advantage, and can wait and see what happens.

On the other hand, the State of Chu, without the Liao State, an ally that directly penetrates behind the Liang State, although there are still two unparalleled generals, Sikong Li and Baili Jin, can be subject to the territory and must attack again, otherwise the national strength of Yan and Chu alone will not be able to support these hundreds of thousands of troops.

In Poyang City, at the kind invitation of Chen Xiong, Li Mixian and Baili Jin both attended, and the two had a disagreement on whether to send troops in the Hundred Divisions City, and Chen Xiong's move was just to mediate the two of them, so as to avoid the gap between the two confidants and generals who had just entered the Chu State.

At the banquet, Chen Xiong's wine was dry, giving the two of them enough face. Baili Jin also took the initiative to ask Li Mixian for peace, picked up his wine glass and said: "Ben General didn't listen to Mr.'s strategy last time, resulting in the loss of a good fighter, and he was even more disrespectful to Mr. I'm really sorry, and I ask Mr. to ignore his past suspicions and bear with me." After speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.

Li Mi saw Baili Jin in a low voice, took the initiative to admit his mistake, and it was not good to force each other too much, so he was reluctant to stand up and give a glass in return.

Chen Xiong knew that this peerless strategist still had a mustard in his heart, so he smiled and mediated: "Both of them are important ministers of my Great Chu State, even if they are a family, it is inevitable that there will be stumbles, since General Baili took the initiative to admit his mistakes, please forgive him for the sake of the widow's face." ”

Li Mixian arched his hand and said: "Don't dare, please rest assured that Your Majesty and General Baili, after today, Li Mixian will not be to blame for the affairs in the city of the Hundred Divisions, and please also ask the general to encounter similar situations in the future, and listen to more suggestions from below." ”

Baili Jin smiled: "That's nature." ”

Suddenly, Li Mixian had a straight face and asked in a deep voice: "I met the military god in the Wangjiang Tower a few days ago next day, and I dare to ask Your Majesty, when will the military god personally lead the army to the south?" ”

Chen Xiong said: "The god of war is no big problem at present, and he can lead the army at any time, but why does Mr. insist on asking the god of war to go out, in terms of the ability to lead the troops, there is no one in the Liang Kingdom who is the opponent of General Baili." ”

Li Mixian patiently explained: "Having said that, after all, General Baili has just surrendered to Cheng not long ago, and although he is famous, when it comes to prestige in the army, he is far inferior to the invincible military god in the hearts of all the soldiers of Chu State. Besides, General Baili just missed a great opportunity in vain because of the fact that the troops in the city of the Hundred Divisions did not move, which made many soldiers dissatisfied, and my Dachu was born warlike, and the only people in the army who were really willing to obey General Baili's orders were only the old troops of the more than 100,000 Yan Kingdom. Battlefield command is far less handy than that of the god of war. As I said just now, under the guidance of that master, Liang Guo fought a series of beautiful victories, and now Da Chu urgently needs a hearty victory to stabilize the army's morale, so Si Air Force God is the best choice for the commander of this battle. ”

Chen Xiong groaned: "Mr. is reasonable, although my Great Chu military strength is almost the same as that of Liang State, but compared to the sixteen states of Liang State, my Great Chu territory is still too small, and far less rich than the Central Plains, and there is not much silver left in the national treasury. ”

Li Mi nodded first and added: "Not only that, what Da Chu needs now is not a small victory, but a big victory that can affect the pattern of the world in the future!" In the next proposal, the military god led the troops, directly take the Golden Wolf City of Liang State, and then General Baili and General Ma Gui later sent troops south together, three-pronged, and Liang Gou was caught off guard. If it is as expected, Li Jian will return to Beijing to receive the reward after a big victory just now, and even if Liang Guo is prepared, he will not leave too many soldiers and horses to garrison the Golden Wolf City, and this is a great opportunity for our army to attack! ”

When Chen Xiong heard this, he stood up and said loudly: "Spread my message and summon the military god into the palace." ”

In Liang Guoqingyang City, Qu Huaier has no descendants in his life, and he has no heirs, he is alone, he can be regarded as a real loner, and it is precisely because of this that he will not arouse the suspicion of the emperor. Qu Huaier sat alone in the room, pinching his fingers and thinking about something, and there were words in his mouth: "Old fox, the old man single-handedly created the current situation, just to prevent the belonging of this world from being prematurely fixed." The old man has paved the way for your still mature disciple, so don't let the old man down. ”

While speaking, Qu Huaier walked out of the secret room, walked through the long corridor, and knocked on the stone door in front of a stone door according to the agreement, three times and two light, and after a while, the stone door was opened by Feng Jingquan from the inside, and the latter saw this, and asked anxiously: "The emperor is in a hurry to find Quan'er?" ”

Qu Huaier said: "Please Your Majesty immediately issue an order, order the army to rush to the aid of Yongzhou, if the old man expected to be right, three days later, the Golden Wolf City will definitely be lost, if our army can not be prepared as soon as possible, then the entire Yongzhou will fall into the hands of the Chu State." ”

Feng Jingquan frowned and said, "Is it so urgent?" Why was the emperor sure that the Golden Wolf City would inevitably fall within three days? ”

Qu Huaier said with a smile: "Does Your Majesty really think that Ye Baiye can stop Sikong Li from leading troops to attack the city?" ”

Feng Jingquan was stunned for a moment, then randomly understood the deep meaning of Qu Huaier's words, and nodded: "Quan'er knows." ”

On this day, Feng Jingquan issued an order and ordered Wei Qing to serve as the commander of the three armies, leading 200,000 troops to Yongzhou, while Li Jian was left in Beijing and on standby at any time. After all, for today's Liang and Chu, both sides are unwilling or dare not put all their forces into the front-line battlefield too early, and the Liang State, which has a greater advantage, is even more unwilling to fight with the Chu State to settle the world.
