Xuzhou, Guangling County, Dongtai County

When the sky was about to dawn, Qin Zhao, Guo Chong, and Yue Shu stood on the deck, ordering the generals.

All the soldiers have already set up their positions and are ready to attack the dock of Dongtai County, Guangling County.

Jiang Boya got the news and hurried over, "Are you preparing to attack Dongtai County, Guangling?" "It was so unexpected.

Qin Zhao replied to him, "Yes. This is the plan that the three of them adjusted after deliberation.

Jiang Boya: "But didn't we say that we would attack the East China Sea?" ”

Guo Chong said, "We have reconnoitred, and there is a problem with the landing site you prepared for us in the south. ”

Jiang Boya, "What's the problem?" ”

Qin Zhao directly pointed out the disadvantages of the landing point they gave, "That place can be landed, but it is difficult to transport grain and grass." This war is fought with grain and grass, and the grain and grass are not continued, which is the hidden danger of defeat. ”

Jiang Boya turned to say, "Then you can attack the docks in the East China Sea." ”

Guo Chong stroked his beard and said, "The docks in the East China Sea are now heavily guarded, and attacking them will be half the effort." It is better to take a detour like now, land from Guangling, Xuzhou, and then attack Qutao in the East China Sea, which can also play a role in containing the forces of the King of Jin. ”

"The biggest purpose of our Pingzhou troops is to contain the King of Jin, so that the King of Jin can recall the soldiers and horses that encircle and suppress the south, so that the crisis in the south can be solved, and after we adjust the plan, we can also achieve the goal." Qin Zhao was a little impatient.

As long as the goal is achieved, do you want them to fight to the death with King Jin as soon as they come up? That's another price.

Jiang Bo's teeth are blocked, Pingzhou is really too shrewd, and basically belongs to the type that refuses to suffer.

In the end, Qin Zhao said jokingly, "Yes, when the imperial court learned that Xuzhou was attacked, it would immediately divide troops to support Xuzhou, wouldn't this just help Lord Xie relieve the siege?" ”

Next, Jiang Boya watched Yue Shu lead his troops to take Dongtai County with lightning speed, and then go down to Jiangdu, and then use these two counties as a stronghold, and then turn around and attack Qutao, an important town in the north of the East China Sea.

The king of Jin received the battle report and hurriedly dispatched troops to Qutao.

At the same time, the king of Jin also received the news that Pingzhou might form an alliance with Nandi, and he attached great importance to it, and sent all the troops that could be drawn out to Qutao.

When the Xuzhou Assassin learned that the two counties of Guangling Dongtai and Jiangdu had been attacked, he immediately sent troops to the adjacent four counties of Yancheng, Xinghua, Gaoyou and Guangling County to strengthen the defense.

The Xuzhou Assassin does not have the idea of recovering the lost territory, and the ability of the Pingzhou soldiers to fight is already known to the world. Moreover, some of the soldiers in Xuzhou will be transferred by the emperor, how can they have the strength to recover the lost territory? He now only begged the Pingzhou generals who occupied Dongtai and Jiangdu not to expand any more.

As soon as the Pingzhou soldiers led by Qin Zhao, Guo Chong, and Yue Shu landed in Xuzhou, Jiang Boya thought that they would also take Qu Tao soon, but the situation was completely unexpected.

"This- you've all sent troops, don't you try to expand the territory you occupy?" Jiang Boya could see that the Pingzhou soldiers did not use all their strength to attack the city, and even the casualties were not large.

Jiang was puzzled, when they captured Dongtai and Jiangdu, they were like a bamboo, how could they attack Qutao and be so casual?

Qin Zhao drank hot tea, heard the words, and teased his eyelids, it was right that they were careless, but Xiao Liu had already sneaked into the East China Sea with his subordinates, that was their battle plan in Pingzhou, how could he tell him everything?

Guo Chong said with a smile, "The East China Sea is too far away from our Pingzhou, and it is difficult to defend it after fighting so much territory, so there is no need to waste too many troops." ”

Unless they can quickly move westward out of Pingzhou, go south, and bulldoze Qingxu Prefecture, it will be possible to completely defend these territories.

Besides, aren't they occupying it?

Before the expedition, their governor explained that the territory around the East China Sea could be conquered, but they were not allowed to fill in the lives of the soldiers.

"Besides, isn't it working out pretty well now? Although we didn't capture Qu Tao, the King of Jin didn't send a lot of troops over, and how many troops did we hold him back. This will, and he will definitely get the troops sent out to come back to help. ”

Jiang Boya sighed in his heart, Pingzhou is like this, it is not a violation of the conditions of their alliance, that is, they asked the other party to send troops, and the other party also came out, but the other party did not go according to their plan.

Southland

Fang Xinkai set off with a large army of 50,000 soldiers and horses in the starry night.

They follow secret paths and wind their way into the Southlands.

The army of 50,000 men was ambushed as they crossed a canyon along the way.

Countless stones rolled down from both sides.

"Enemy attack! Be careful! ”

"The general is deceitful!"

Fang Xinkai's face was pale, they were fooled.

He directly shook the whip of his henchman, "Didn't you let you investigate?" ”

"General, my subordinates have indeed investigated."

"General, what now?"

"Everyone, rush forward!"

Countless boulders tumbled, forcing them to rush forward.

After they had rushed out for a long distance, the team was also swept to pieces.

Xie Zhan appeared in front.

When Fang Xinkai saw Xie Zhan, he knew that he had fallen for his scheme, and he put his hand on the big knife on his waist defensively.

"Fang Xinkai, surrender, you have been surrounded!" Xie Zhan said lightly.

Fang Xinkai laughed loudly, and after laughing, he said to the left and right, "He said that he surrounded us?" We have 50,000 soldiers, what will he use to surround us? "Even though some of his army were killed and injured because of the ambush just now, he is not something that Xie Zhan can scare.

Xie Zhan was not angry, "I don't believe you can look up at the sides and front and back to see if you are surrounded?" ”

Fang Xinkai looked up and saw that the mountain walls on both sides of this long canyon were full of soldiers, and in the morning and twilight, he couldn't see his head.

"Fang Xinkai, in order to ambush you, I have arranged a total of 80,000 soldiers and horses in front of and behind this canyon, relying on the terrain, is it enough to destroy your 50,000 soldiers and horses?"

Fang Xinkai was shocked, how could Xie Zhan have so many soldiers and horses?

"I don't believe it, I don't believe you have so many soldiers and horses!" Fang Xinkai said loudly.

Xie Zhan tilted his head slightly, "General Yang, I'm tired." ”

Yang Yingqin stepped forward, "Fang Xinkai, you surrender." ”

Seeing Yang Yingqin, Fang Xinkai was stunned, and he suddenly understood.

Xie Zhan looked at these southwestern soldiers under Fang Xinkai's command, "Put down your arms, surrender and don't kill!" ”

The southwestern soldiers looked at each other, and they all looked at their general.

"The emperor said that as long as you surrender and don't make senseless resistance, he will not be blamed in the past! You were originally the people of Dali, and now you surrender to the light. The emperor is willing to give you a chance to atone for your crimes! ”

Hearing this, the soldiers' hearts wavered.

Fang Xinkai knew that this was also said to him, he sighed and took the lead in throwing down his weapon.

Seeing this, the generals and soldiers under his command also threw their weapons to the ground one by one.
