"General Geng, His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince is the commander of the Northern Frontier, you are just a great general, there is no need to ask for trouble, sit down!" King Yu lightly excused Geng Zhong.

Geng Zhong was grateful and said, "Yes, His Royal Highness King Yu." ”

"Let's go on!" Li Leng's mind was very simple, that is, to implement the responsibility for the unfavorable situation in northern Xinjiang one by one through Yan Song's mouth, and to completely empty the military power of Geng Zhong, the great general of northern Xinjiang.

Some generals in northern Xinjiang have already seen the reasons for the unfavorable situation in northern Xinjiang, but because of the power of Geng Zhong and King Yu, they dare not speak out. Li Leng didn't know the mind of every Northern Xinjiang general, but as soon as he entered Baizhou City, he felt the atmosphere.

There is another reason, if Li Leng wants to reactivate Yan Song, he must let people see Yan Song's talent, and only in this way can he have enough reason to keep Yan Song.

"Yes, Your Highness. After saying that, Yan Song had no scruples, and kept talking about the shortcomings of the defense of northern Xinjiang one by one. The focus is on three aspects: First, the defensive line is stretched too long, which disperses the troops. The Yuanrong clan can just concentrate the superior iron cavalry and carry out point attacks on the long line of defense, tearing open their defenses. Once the defense is torn open, the entire defense system will collapse, and the defeat of the Northern Xinjiang army is an ironclad thing. The second is the error of decision-making. The general did not know enough about the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong tribe, and thought that he could defeat the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong tribe with the help of the northern army, but he did not expect to be lured by the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong tribe to go deep and eliminate them one by one, which hurt the vitality of the northern Xinjiang army. Third, the defensive strategy decision after the defeat was extremely absurd, and when it was pressed and beaten by the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan, it actually gave up several cities that were easy to defend and difficult to attack, which led to the complete collapse of the entire northern defense line and the loss of most of the northern territory.

Yu Wang and Geng Zhong's faces were extremely ugly, and Yan Song did not point them out by name, but the situation in Northern Xinjiang became very unfavorable after they took office, and anyone with a little bit of brains would attribute the root cause to them.

Li Muran had a faint smile on his face, and from beginning to end, he didn't say a word, nor did he express his opinions, let alone show his attitude. King Yu is the prison army, and he is also the prison army. And the Son of Heaven did not issue an order to withdraw King Yu's supervising army, which is equivalent to two supervising troops in the Northern Xinjiang army. Then the question arises, who is the real supervisor of the Northern Xinjiang Army?

If you don't beat King Yu down, although Li Muran's supervision army is not said to be in name only, its power and influence will inevitably be greatly reduced, and it is impossible to play the role of a real supervision army. From this point of view, he and Li Leng have common interests, and they must both take away the power in the hands of King Yu and Geng Zhong.

"Do you have any objections?" After Yan Song finished speaking, Li Leng swept his gaze over the generals in the barracks and asked lightly.

All the generals lowered their heads and didn't speak, some of the generals were Geng Zhong and King Yu's henchmen, but Li Leng killed the prestige, they wanted to say a few words for King Yu and Geng Zhong, but they didn't have the courage to say it. Some generals have long been dissatisfied with Geng Zhong and King Yu, and since they took office, they have changed all the defense systems and strategies in northern Xinjiang, and some veterans with rich combat experience have also been taken down by them casually, some have been killed, some have been imprisoned, and some can only sit on the cold bench. Therefore, Yan Song's words were the words in their hearts, how could they say good things for Geng Zhong?

"Everyone has no objections, well, the reasons for today's unfavorable situation in northern Xinjiang will be formed, and the light will be sent back to Chang'an City immediately, and the truth will be reported to the Son of Heaven. With this move, Li Leng completely cut off Geng Zhong's promotion path. Whether the Son of Heaven believes Li Leng's words or not, in this life, Geng Zhong will not have any hope of promotion.

The rout of Northern Xinjiang is finally to find someone to come out and take the blame, Li Leng has such a twist and turn, and he has analyzed the problem so thoroughly, there is no reason why the Son of Heaven should not use Geng Zhong as a substitute for the dead ghost.

"Your Royal Highness the Tenth Prince, don't deceive people too much. Geng Zhong was furious and yelled.

"You say one more thing, try it. Li Leng had murderous eyes in his eyes, and his fingers that were tapping the table suddenly stopped, and he shouted, "You...... Do you have the guts?"

"His Highness is the commander of the Northern Frontier, and the last general really doesn't have the courage to go against His Highness. Geng Zhong said coldly, "But the last general will also give a fold to the Son of Heaven, accusing His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince of rejecting dissidents and privately using the guilty person." ”

"Whatever. Li Leng didn't take Geng Zhong in his eyes at all, and said lightly, "Except for Yan Song, the rest of the people went down to rest." ”

All the generals withdrew, and Geng Zhong was dragged away by King Yu.

Suddenly, there were only two people left in the barracks, Li Leng and Yan Song.

"You have analyzed the situation in Northern Xinjiang, so do you have a countermeasure in mind?" asked Li Leng.

Yan Song was silent for a long time and asked, "Your Highness deliberately retreated left and right, do you suspect that someone is a spy of the Yuanrong clan?"

"Yes, no one has sent a message to the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry, and it is impossible for the Northern Frontier army to be so defeated. Li Leng sighed slightly and said, "When the reinforcements will arrive at Guandinghe, except for a few people in our reinforcements who know, only some generals of the Northern Xinjiang Army know." Before departure, we closely monitored the reinforcing lights, and it was impossible for anyone to leak them. The only reason is that the Northern Xinjiang Army is here. ”

Yan Song said: "Your Highness was only suspicious at first, but after the reinforcements arrived at the Guanding River, King Yu and Geng Zhong did not send a large army to support you. It is impossible for the generals and supervisors to forget such an important matter, and the only explanation is that they did it on purpose, in order to let His Highness and the reinforcements fall into the encirclement of the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry. ”

"Do you have any good ideas?" asked Li Leng.

Yan Song said: "The situation in northern Xinjiang is complicated, but no matter how complicated the situation is, as long as we firmly grasp the key, we will definitely be able to turn things around." ”

"Oh, you mean Iron Mountain City. Li Leng touched his nose, this Yan Song really has a vision, and he grasped the key to the whole incident at once.

Yan Song nodded and said, "Yes, Iron Mountain City, as well as Iron Mountain, is the hub that connects the entire northern Xinjiang. Whoever occupies Iron Mountain and Iron Mountain City will have the initiative in northern Xinjiang. The Yuanrong tribe also knew the importance of this place, and after occupying the Iron Mountain City, they left a part of the iron cavalry to cooperate with the Qiang monks to defend the city. It's a pity that the general defending the city is a brave and ruthless person, and he is very unhappy to be arranged in Tieshan City by the leader of the Yuanrong clan, so we can lure out the defenders in the city, take the opportunity to eliminate this group of enemies, quickly occupy Tieshan City, and build a defense system. As long as Iron Mountain City is in our hands, the situation in the northern frontier will be reversed. ”

Li Leng pondered for a while and said: "Iron Mountain City is in our hands, and the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan is in our attack range, we can take advantage of the situation and promote the development of the battle situation with powerful attack power." Under pressure, the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong tribe will shrink their forces, and even withdraw from the cities captured in the northern frontier. ”
