Chapter 126: Reconsideration
A Diaoyu City.
Since the beginning of spring, the weather has been like a baby's face, with continuous drizzle for a while, and occasionally, there is a loud wind, and the whole sky is obscured by dark clouds, which makes people feel annoyed.
Living in the tent, Meng Ge did not feel sad, but secretly annoyed.
You must know that more than half a year has passed since the first arrival here, but now the entire battle situation has not been fully developed, and the Diaoyu City in front of you is always like a fish bone, stuck in the throat and unpleasant.
At this time, the curtain outside the door was lifted, and a person walked inside.
"Is it Guo Kan? How is the battle ahead?" Opening his eyes, Meng Ge pulled the hair on his forehead behind him with some irritability, so as not to cover his gaze.
Because the war has not progressed for a long time, he has not had a haircut until this time, so he looks extremely decadent.
Guo Kan shook his head slightly and replied, "I have already ordered Wang Dechen to continue the attack. But you also know that our army is extremely tired at the moment, and I am afraid that this time, it will be in vain. ”
"I see. Meng Ge's expression was immediately gloomy, revealing a little loss. He's tired of hearing the news these days. Feeling that he couldn't go on like this, he raised his head again and asked, "What is the morale of our army in recent days?" Losing battles is also a common thing, and when Meng Ge usually led the army to fight, this kind of predicament was not unprecedented, but if the military spirit was lost, the entire army would completely collapse.
"There's the Great Khan at the helm. Although the soldiers were a little worried, they were not afraid. Guo Kan nodded, barely showing some smiles.
Meng Ge felt a little relieved and replied, "It's good over there." ”
"That's right, Great Khan. I have one more thing to tell you. Seeing that Meng Ge was relieved, Guo Kan thought for a while, and then opened his mouth to complain: "Just yesterday, the national teacher Ba Sipa arrived here, saying that there was something important to report to the Great Khan. But I wonder if the Great Khan is willing to meet him?"
Meng Ge's eyebrows moved slightly, and he didn't feel confused in his heart, and said: "Since you are a national teacher, you naturally want to see each other." ”
He naturally recognized that when he was arguing with the Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect at that time, it was this person who made the final decision and directly knocked the Quanzhen Sect priests to the ground, and even in the next process, completely eradicated all the forces of the Quanzhen Sect in the north, so that the other party had to flee south and join the command of the Red Phoenix Army.
As soon as the words fell, Paspa had already slowly stepped into the account.
When he saw Guo Kan and Meng Ge sitting in a precarious position, he immediately replied: "Poor monk Ba Sipa, I will meet the Khan and General Guo here." ”
"National teacher. You and I have been friends for many years. At the beginning, if it wasn't for your help, how could I have been able to sit in this position?" Meng Ge shook his head and smiled: "So you don't have to be humble, if there is any need, if I can meet it, I will naturally do my best." ”
With compassion on his face, he smiled and said, "The poor monk has thanked the Khan." It's just that the poor monk has a loss, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to inherit such love. ”
"What's the matter?" Meng Ge was surprised in his heart, and naturally asked.
Pasipa sighed, and then replied: "At the beginning, thanks to the Khan's refusal to give up, he ordered me to guard the land of Chengdu Mansion to ensure that we could provide sufficient food and salary for our army. But the poor monk couldn't do anything, so he asked the Red Phoenix Army to take this place. This time, I came not to receive merit, but to make amends. ”
"What?"
Meng Ke was startled and immediately jumped up from his seat.
Guo Kan also frowned, and hurriedly asked: "I also know that Chengdu Mansion is garrisoned by New Phosphorus." And he was the guard of the former prince, a martial artist, and he was a dragon among men. Why was the Chengdu Mansion taken away by the Red Phoenix Army?"
Phags-pa replied, "I'm ashamed to say it. In the past, although we sent a large army to control Chengdu Mansion in our hands, we let Pu Xuezhi, the former Sichuan system, escape. In order to search for the whereabouts of this person, we have also exhausted all our efforts to find this person. But who would have thought that that guy would actually join the command of the Red Phoenix Army, and even rely on the former secret passage to break into Yunding Mountain and recapture the entire mountain city. ”
"Oh, I didn't expect this person to be dead?" Guo Kan was surprised for a moment, obviously frightened by the news.
He had also gone over to take a look at Yunding Mountain, and knew that the immortals and mountains here were dangerous, and the mountains were steep, even if they were more than ten times stronger, they might not be able to break through the opponent's defense system.
However, today's news surprised him, and he didn't know what was going on.
Meng Ge was also annoyed, and there were words in his mouth: "If this is the case, then wouldn't the entire Chengdu Mansion completely belong to the Red Phoenix Army?"
"That's right. Khan. Paspa bowed slightly, feeling that he could not argue, so he had to keep reciting the Buddhist scriptures.
Meng Ge took a deep breath, suddenly swept his hand, and swept all the wine and food on the table to the ground, and shouted: "It's all like this, we still have time to continue eating, drinking and having fun here?" When the time comes, I will wait for the two sides to face the Red Feng Army and the Song Army, what do you think of confrontation?" This tone was filled with great sadness and indignation.
He was really fed up with this kind of day, and he just wanted to be able to vent the sorrow in his heart.
Ba Si Pa and Guo Kan stood aside, but yes and no, no, they didn't know how to deal with it.
As he looks in front of him, Meng Ge has really experienced too much.
Guo Kan also felt a little tricky, and replied: "With our strength alone, if we fight against the Red Phoenix Army or the Song Army alone, it will be more than enough." But if their two armies are united, then we will have to shed our skin if we don't die. ”
"Do you have a way to do that?" asked Phags-pa again.
Guo Kan frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "If you want to achieve this goal, there are only two ways. First, it is to take advantage of this time to completely capture Diaoyu City. However, the defense of Diaoyu City is perfect, and for a while, I am afraid that it will be difficult to break. Both, then I had to pack my bags and leave from here. ”
"Don't talk about Diaoyu City. But the transfer is enough to cause headaches. When Meng Ge heard these two plans, he was also quite annoyed for a while, and replied: "You must know that we are now located in the depths of Sichuan and Shu, and we are still thousands of miles away from the Mongolian tribes. It will be even more difficult to keep the army under his command from among the enemy. ”
Guo Kan continued: "But if you continue to stay here, it will only be a matter of time before you are annihilated by the Red Phoenix Army. After all, this Red Phoenix Army has a strong reputation in this Sichuan and Shu, and most of the soldiers in its army are composed of Sichuan people, so they have a considerable advantage by nature. ”
He also talked about the internal affairs of the Chifeng Army, and knew that most of the soldiers in the Chifeng Army were composed of Beiren and Sichuan.
After all, everyone knows that in this troubled world, if you want to survive, you can only save your life by being under the command of others.
However, the Song Dynasty had previously concluded a contract with the Jin Dynasty, promising that all the southbound northerners would not accept it, and after a hundred years, the Song Dynasty had already lost the idea of China Zhengshuo in the eyes of the northerners, and turned to the command of the Red Phoenix Army.
It is also thanks to these people that the Chifeng military ushered in a time of great development.
"It seems that even if you want to leave this place, you have to prepare well?" Meng Ge sighed, his expression rather gloomy.
Since he came to power, he has seen the elation of his soldiers, and he thought that this was the time to expand his territory and establish an immortal cause. But this world is too cruel after all, and it still makes Meng Ge experience what courage is and what tenacity is.
Guo Kan said: "And even if you want to leave, it is definitely not the case." Otherwise, the other party will see our tricks, and I am afraid that they will catch up. Therefore, it is better to continue to attack at this time, so as to make the other party think that there is no time to take care of the crisis, so that we can escape smoothly from here. ”
However, he was very experienced, and knew that if he rashly announced a retreat, it would definitely cause the entire army to collapse completely, and then create a great opportunity for others.
Historically, there have been countless armies that have completely collapsed because of retreat.
Meng Ge thought about it for a while, and naturally knew that Guo Kan had good intentions, so he instructed: "Then this matter will be all left to you to be responsible." ”
"Don't worry, Khan. I won't let you down this time. Guo Kan was happy in his heart and immediately responded.
Montgolang laughed, "That's nature. It's just that you can't work so hard that you break your body, you know?"
"It's nature!"
Guo Kan responded, and immediately pulled out and left, and began to prepare for the future.
Of course, he didn't dare to rush to pass on these things to the army, otherwise after being heard by that group of soldiers, he would inevitably make a fuss, and even directly lead to the collapse of the army.
Ba Sipa knew that if it weren't for his own poor defense, how could he ask the Chifeng Army to capture Chengdu Mansion and successfully log in to Genting Mountain?
When he thought about this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed, although he begged Meng Geyang: "Now that there are dead and wounded in the army, why don't you let me go for treatment, lest they will be in great pain, how about it?"
"That's good. Then this case, you will have to work. Meng Ge nodded, which was kind of approval.
After the two left, Meng Ge fell to the ground, thinking secretly in his heart: "That Red Phoenix Army is really powerful, not only since it was born, it has grown vigorously under the encirclement and suppression of everyone, and now it even occupies the Hanzhong area, and even tries to get involved in the Sichuan and Shu generation." I have to say that the demon girl really has some means. And if I don't raise my vigilance, I'm afraid that I will be expelled by the other party anytime and anywhere. ”
Meng Ge is no stranger to the banner played by the Red Phoenix Army, and even went out to learn about it because of his identity.
And at this glance, he also knew how powerful his opponent was, and how he trapped himself here.
............
On the other side, Guo Kan and Ba Si Pa each retreated and re-entered the army.
At this moment, Wang Dechen led the army to retreat, his face was still full of resentment, and he was obviously not very satisfied with the previous battle situation. On the way, he met a person who was splitting the face, and it was the speed of the spell, and the three of the kings, Brother Mo, and Lu Xiong, were coming head-on.
"Oh, isn't this the honorable General Wang? How can you look like this today? Isn't it that you have lost the battle again?" When Shu Su suddenly saw Wang Dechen, he couldn't help but immediately sneered.
He didn't say that it was okay, but this statement immediately provoked the anger in Wang Dechen's heart, opened his mouth, and scolded: "Even if it is a defeat, I have also gone into battle to kill the enemy, and it is much better than huddled in the barracks." You're just a coward, and you only deserve to hide under your mother's skirt. ”
Shu Suori was also annoyed, and immediately retorted: "So I should be like you, and return defeated? If you defeat the other party, it's fine, and you are just a defeated soldier under a mere one, what qualifications do you have to run rampant in front of me?"
"Good. Why don't you do the last one?" Wang Dechen was also provoked, and he screamed when he grabbed his neck.
For a while, the two sides immediately started a confrontation, looking at each other, both with displeasure.
At this moment, Guo Kan, who was looking for Wang Dechen in the distance, saw the scene in front of him.
He suddenly looked annoyed and shouted, "You two, what are you doing?"
With this drink, the two of them immediately retreated one after another, so as not to provoke Guo Kan.
After all, Guo Kan seems to be easy-going, but he has his own means, and he has always been strict with those who violate military discipline, and he will never allow any military camps to beat each other. If you see the two of them fighting, you have to set an example and directly confine the two of them.
When the two of them thought of Guo Kan's methods, Gu was trembling, and immediately straightened up and replied, "General Qiyu." We were discussing the matter, but because the conversation was a bit heated, we quarreled. ”
"Hmph! I don't dare. With a light snort, Guo Kan looked at the two of them with a solemn face, and asked again: "What do you think about the current military situation?"
At present, Diaoyu City has not been captured, and the Chifeng Army in the distance has already controlled Chengdu Mansion, so they are ready to attack, and when the time comes, under the attack of the two armies, if they have not made a decision, then they will really be annihilated.
Wang Dechen looked stunned, showed a little distress, and said with a smile: "General." You don't know that I'm just a rough man, how can I guide the country? But as long as you tell me, I will definitely take the lead and never shirk. ”
He didn't really mean that he was a rough person, but he also vaguely saw the situation at the moment, so it was inconvenient to express his position.
But the speed of the technique was furrowed, and he complained: "General." Between me, we've spent too much time here. ”
"Oh, what do you mean?" Guo Kan continued to ask.
Wang Dechen's answer was unrealistic and didn't have much pointing, so Guo Kan wanted to see what this Shushu was about to come up with.
Shu Su suddenly took a deep breath, and immediately replied: "Actually, according to my intentions, I might as well bypass this city and go straight to the land of the Yangtze River." At that time, they will be able to cooperate with Wuliang Hetai to attack Xiangyang. And if Xiangyang is in hand, we can take this opportunity to go down the river and completely destroy the Southern Dynasty. So Jiangnan is at your fingertips. ”
