Chapter 426, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight

Luo Yuhankong, the hall master of the Jiannan Branch of the Luoyu Pavilion, was overjoyed, he thought that Ye Gongzi went to assassinate the investigators sent to Jianzhou by the Wei Wangfu was a trivial matter, but he didn't expect that Ye Gongzi, the number one killer of this pavilion, would also miss it!

It turned out that Ye Gongzi followed Tang Jiusheng, Xiahou Lingyu and the fat man halfway, and accidentally recognized Tang Jiusheng's identity, so he didn't rush to start, he wanted to kill Tang Jiusheng in public, let people know Ye Gongzi's power, and at the same time establish authority for Luoyu Pavilion, but he didn't know that his every move could not escape the eyes of Dongwei's secret agent.

Of course, at this time, Xiaowei had just been established, and the relationship between Dongwei and Xiaowei was still quite harmonious, and the two sides belonged to a cooperative relationship, so Dongwei immediately informed Xiaowei of the news. Xin Zhiping, who got the news, decisively sent Ling Hu Yu and others to protect Tang Jiusheng, but fearing that Ling Hu Yu and others were not Ye Gongzi's opponents, he also sent his senior brother Chen Chengshu, who had just rushed to Wei Wang's Mansion, to secretly protect Tang Jiusheng.

Although Chen Chengshu's martial arts are not very strong, he is better than knowing some spells, and using spells can effectively suppress the opponent's martial realm. After settling all this properly, Xin Zhiping breathed a sigh of relief.

Here, according to Dongwei and Xiaowei's reports, Qi Siyuan knew that Tang Jiusheng's temporary arrest of Ma Yuanlu had caused Ye Tengjiao and Niu to be vigilant. Qi Siyuan and Xin Zhiping, Shui Ruyue and others met and discussed, and agreed that Niu Mandi was entrenched in Luye City, although he had a total of tens of thousands of horses, but Luye City was a place of four battles, a lonely city, there was no danger to defend, there was no need to be afraid, but it was Jianzhou with high cities and deep pools that was more dangerous.

If this group of people abandons Luye City and flees to Jianzhou, they will definitely not be able to take Jianzhou in a short period of time, and the situation in Jiannan Province will not be good. The west must guard against Jianzhou County, the south must guard against Pingxi King Yin Quan, and the east must pay attention to Zhou King Yin Ao, which is really a belly and back enemy.

Qi Siyuan had a keen eye, thinking that the opportunity could not be lost, and the time would not come again, so he decided to use the small and broad, and took advantage of the fact that Niu Mandi and Ye Tengjiao had not yet reacted, and made a decisive move, first Jianzhou and then Luye, dividing and disintegrating the two sides, and not giving them the opportunity to join forces in one place.

After the discussion, Qi Siyuan immediately flew a pigeon to pass the book to Shui Rulong and Yulong Xingkong and others in Xuantong County, and with the order of the king of Wei, the three thousand military horses of Xuantong County were transferred to Jianzhou in the starry night, and Xiaowei also dispatched people at the same time, ready to clear the scouts sent by Jianzhou County and Luye City at any time. At the same time, it was decided to use Tang Jiusheng and Fat Man and others as bait to attract some of the 8,000 military horses in Jianzhou City out of the city and create opportunities for Xuantong military horses.

Tang Jiusheng received a message from Xiaoqing in Lao Yezhai, which was Qi Siyuan's secret plan, so he brought hundreds of people and horses to be placed outside the east gate of Jianzhou in a big way to attract the attention of Ye Tengjiao and others. But he didn't expect that Ye Tengjiao was timid and afraid of death, so he had a conflict with An Chongbao on sending troops, and An Chongbao was angry, and sent someone to arrest Ye Tengjiao, self-destructing the Great Wall.

Captain Zhiguo Zheng is the nephew of the former Jianzhou general Zheng Tieqiao, and he has long been dissatisfied with An Chongbao and Ye Tengjiao's arrogance and domineering, but he is helpless under the low eaves, how dare he not bow his head, dare to be angry but dare not speak. There are also three low-level captains in Jianzhou who are also dissatisfied with Ye Tengjiao and the others, and Dongwei has infiltrated Jianzhou for a day, and he has already mastered this important situation, and Dongwei has shared these valuable news with Xiaowei.

Therefore, after the flying pigeons on both sides passed the book, Cheng Zifei in the city and Dongwei's fan who was lurking in Jianzhou County secretly visited Zhiguo together

The captain solemnly visited three low-level captains who were dissatisfied with Ye Tengjiao, explaining that he was from the Wei Wang's Mansion and came to eliminate Ye Tengjiao on the order of the Wei King.

Qi Siyuan set the strategy of solemnly killing An Chongbao after the cavalry left the city, and asked the three low-level captains to divide their troops out of the city in An Chongbao, and after the strength of the Jianzhou defenders declined, he opened the north gate of Jianzhou and put the Xuantong soldiers and horses lurking outside the city. After the Xuantong soldiers and horses entered the city, under the leadership of Shui Rulong and Yulong Xingkong and others, they first guarded the city gate, then blocked the county guard yamen, handed over the seal letter of the barracks, and firmly controlled the barracks in the city with the cooperation of three captains.

Ten miles outside the east gate of Jianzhou City, after solemnly slashing An Chongbao, the four thousand Jianzhou soldiers had no leader, and they had no choice but to surrender to King Wei. Tang Jiusheng had an extra thousand cavalry out of thin air, and Le's mouth was almost closed, because the cavalry was too precious and too difficult to build.

The officials and soldiers who were originally not in the same mind as Ye Tengjiao, when they heard that King Wei had entered the city, they were instantly boiling, and they came to surrender one after another, and Jianzhou changed hands like a dream. After Cheng Zifei and Tang Jiusheng gave separate lectures, the thousands of disarmed soldiers in Jianzhou were honest, the county guard was arrested, and the commander of the army was killed.

Happiness came too suddenly, Tang Jiusheng thought that it would take a lot of effort to get rid of Ye Tengjiao, but he didn't expect Qi Siyuan to give him such a big gift! Tang Jiusheng looked forward to Qi Siyuan's next step even more, and even the fat man smiled brightly like a flower, "Old Tang, you really picked up a treasure! This Mr. Qi is really a talent, so courageous, playing such a big game of chess, his hands don't tremble, even your Wei Wang dares to use it as bait, it's ruthless enough!"

Tang Jiusheng laughed and punched the fat man, "Dead fat man, are you praising or hurting people?"

The fat man squeezed his eyebrows and said, "It must be a boast! My own person, what's wrong with boasting? With such an excellent strategist, how much worry do you have to save! If this person is on Yin Quan's side, I'm afraid you will cry, right? Hehehe......

Hearing that Jianzhou had been lost, Niu was in a panic, and he couldn't drink the wine anymore, so he kept sighing with his cup, "Oh, Degong, it's really as you expected, this Wei Wang is really too insidious! This official never expected that he would dare to attack Jianzhou! If Jianzhou is lost, our initiative will be gone! As you said, this Luye City is a place of four battles, and it is not easy to defend it, so what should we do next?"

Luo Bingshang pondered for a moment, "My lord, let's still act according to the original plan, transfer troops from various counties, and at the same time, take advantage of their unpreparedness, quickly send troops to recapture Jianzhou, the students personally went to Yuzhou Mansion in Southwest Province, to see Pingxi Wang Yinquan, explain the benefits to him, and ask him to send troops to help us, things have developed so far, we can't rely on ourselves alone, only a two-pronged approach, maybe there is a turnaround, otherwise we really have to go into the mountains!"

Niu nodded all over the ground, stood up from behind the case, paced in the grass tree hall, and said after a while: "Other than that, there seems to be no good way, now I don't do it, he has already done it first." Things have developed to this point, and it is not up to us to decide, and if we don't fight back, we have to fight back! Now it is a situation of life and death, either standing or kneeling. Degong, how about I personally lead the troops to fight Jianzhou?"

Luo Bingshang shook his head and said, "My lord, it is the generals' business to kill the generals and destroy the enemy

Love, you just need to sit firmly in the command of Luye City! Pingxi Wang handed it over to the students to do it, you don't have to worry, whether it succeeds or not, the students will return quickly. Now while the Wei Wangfu has not yet reacted, hurry up and make a move, but the action must be fast, they have captured the Jianzhou, which is equivalent to the first move in chess! If you want to be the first to go back, you must be ruthless enough and take it by surprise!"

Niu Man nodded, first arranged for his two major guards He Lidong and Fan Weihong to lead fifty cavalry to follow Luo Bingluo Shang into the southwest road, and then hurriedly left Caoshutang, and began to dispatch troops to attack Jianzhou, and at the same time issued a transfer document from the Yamen, transferring soldiers and horses from Huzhou, Jiangzhou, and Lianshan counties to Luye City to suppress bandits, and also sent someone to inform Pang Chong, the guard of Songshan County, who was in the lineage, so that he could be ready to use troops against Jianzhou at any time.

Muliang Pavilion, Pingxi Palace, Yuzhou City, Yin Quan was crooked on the couch, looking at the secret report sent by the Blood Shadow Hall with a gloomy face, and the prince Yin Yueheng and Cheng Jijia sat on the side, both thoughtful. Yin Quan stared at the secret report for a long time before putting it down, sitting up straight, and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Cheng, what should we do?" Jiannan Dao has begun to turn from a secret battle to an open battle, Jianzhou has been lost, and now if we don't send troops, the cattle may not be able to hold on!"

Cheng Jijia shook his head and said: "Lord Wang, if we openly attack Tang Jiusheng now, it will be equivalent to tearing our faces with the imperial court, and then we can only raise troops." In the spring, we only had 50,000 horses, and now we only have 60,000 or 70,000 horses on hand, and we have to leave 10,000 or 20,000 people to defend the southwest road, and we can send at most 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses to attack Jiangzhou.

Yin Quan smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Cheng, if you don't save Niu Mandi now, Jiannan Dao will be lost, Niu Mandi is definitely not Tang Jiusheng's opponent, with Tang Jiusheng's tossing strength, even the widow and Yin Chun dare to offend, will he still put Niu Mandi in his eyes? ”

Sitting on the side, Yin Yueheng lifted the purple and gold crown on the top of his head, and asked with a smile: "If you send a letter to King Lingnan, King Zhou and others, and everyone shoots together, then we will openly raise troops, with everyone's existing soldiers and horses, there must be no problem in taking Jiannan Dao, as for Jiangnan Dao, it's hard to say, right?"

These days, Yin Quan began to let his son Yin Yueheng also participate in the handling of the government affairs of Southwest Province in order to cultivate a successor.

Cheng Jijia smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Lord Wang, it's not that we don't send troops, but we can't directly send troops to attack Jiannan! We can send an army, disguised as mountain bandits, to attack Tong'an County in the west of Jiangzhou City, break Tong'an County, detour north of Jiangzhou, walk hundreds of miles more, enter the territory of Jiannan, and save the cattle all over the land." Here, you personally lead an army to the south gate of Jiangzhou, in the name of chasing and suppressing the Liukou, try to see if you can pass through Jiangzhou directly!"

Cheng Jijia said again: "Then let's send Niu Mandi into Jianzhou and withdraw it, let him use Jianzhou as the foundation, confront Tang Jiusheng, involve Tang Jiusheng, and consume Tang Jiusheng." They are fighting in Jiannan, we secretly fund the cattle all over the ground, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, try to make Tang Jiusheng untenable in Jiannan Dao, and we will continue to develop our strength in Southwest Dao. ”

Yin Quan's eyes lit up, but Yin Yueheng blurted out, "Oh, Mr. Cheng is really a good idea!

The three of them looked at each other and laughed together.
