Chapter 5 5 2 Send someone to ask for food

"Then does Li Wuchang have any interest in Tongchuan?" Zhao Yuanji finally asked what was in his heart.

If Li Wuchang could divide his troops through Sichuan, even if it was just a little bit of elite soldiers, the pressure on him and Xu Minglong would not be so great.

Xu Minglong's actions were too arrogant, and Jia Song ordered tens of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers to pursue them together, and he had a very undying posture.

Originally, there was nothing to do with Zhao Yuanji, he got in later, and he wanted to relieve Xu Minglong from the siege first and buy some time to escape, but he didn't know that even he was trapped, and he was getting deeper and deeper.

The two of them have already fought a few tough battles in Tongchuan and Liangzhou, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is a situation where you come and go, win and lose each other, and it is an equal game, but in fact, it is not.

Zhao Yuanji made detailed statistics and summaries of these series of battles, and the losses of him and Xu Minglong were greater than those of the Liangzhou army in terms of financial resources and troops.

War Sin!

It's not that he and Xu Minglong's sons are not satisfied, but the quality of the troops is not as good, and there are many elites among the tens of thousands of troops in Liangzhou who are chasing them, and it is the kind of elite squad that makes them suffer enough.

Sneak attacks on the side, hard fighting on the front, outflanking on the road, burning grain and cutting grass, one by one, are impossible to prevent.

If you don't make adjustments, I'm afraid it won't be long before Zhao Xu and the others will be slowly eroded, and eventually hurt the root bones until they are completely destroyed.

Now that Li Wuchang appeared not far from Tongchuan, Wu Qinglun, who had also analyzed the junction of the three counties just now, did not dare to act rashly, and Zhao Yuanji's heart was naturally a little impatient.

In the final analysis, Li Wuchang is a thief, and it is appropriate to pull other thieves.

Li Wuchang, you hurry up and come to Tongchuan County, I, Zhao Yuanji, are the first to welcome, if you want to take the city, I will give it to you, I Zhao Yuanji don't want it, and he Xu Minglong won't want it, not only will he not ask for it, but he will also cover you in the future.

Seeing Zhao Yuanji's slightly expectant look, Yue Kaili said in a deep voice: "It's a bit possible, but the possibility is not high, in my opinion, if Li Wuchang really wants to advance to the west, Tongchuan is obviously not the best choice." ”

Then he raised two fingers and said, "Li Wuchang personally went to the southwest of Fangling, I estimated it slightly, there are two possibilities!"

Zhao Yuanji sighed, waiting for the following, Yue Kaili followed him for a long time, his mind was delicate, he was steady, and he also had a unique understanding of various situations, and the words he said were generally very convincing.

Yue Kaikai analyzed: "First, to consolidate the results of the battle, step by step, he went to the southwest of Fangling to observe the situation, prepare for eating the entire Fangling County, and let Fangling be completely labeled as a French commander.

He defeated the imperial general Zhang Zhihai under the city of Fangling, and through a series of operations, the northern and central parts of Fangling are now under his hands, leaving only the southeast and southwest.

Not to mention the situation of the confrontation in the southeast, we need to take our time. Although there are no large-scale troops in the southwest, there are many forces wandering, and if Li Wuchang can clean it up, it will definitely be beneficial to him and no harm!"

Zhao Yuanji asked: "He went to the southwest in person, just to see the situation? Will there be some fuss? I am more inclined that he is looking for a place for Yang Su, Yang Su has just been incorporated into the French Shuai Army, and his sincerity is very sufficient, and Li Wuchang naturally wants to respond one or two." ”

Yue Kaili said: "If he really just wants to find a place for Yang Su, Li Wuchang will go to Hanchuan to find out He Xu, instead of smashing a restaurant in a remote area, the pattern is too small, not like what he did." ”

After a pause, he continued: "Li Wuchang went to the southwest to see the situation in person, which seems to be making a big fuss, but in fact it is not.

As far as I know, he's done a lot of that kind of fuss before.

After going to Feng Yibingzhuang, in order to improve the lives of the villagers, he walked through every inch of their village with his feet, planned fruit forests, medicine fields, miscellaneous grain fields, breeding lands, and also built a lake.

Although there is no large-scale military force in the southwest of Fangling today, but the power is rampant, and it is also a mess, I guess he wants to see it in person, so he started to start, and now Fangling City is quite stable, and he is also calculated to scatter his heart!"

Zhao Yuanji sighed: "According to what you say, he likes to wander around underneath, but the big thing is handed over to Wei Xin and Wang Wanhong!"

Yue Kaili nodded, "The phrase "wandering around the bottom" is very accurate, Li Wuchang really likes to do that." I heard that when he was in Fangling City, he didn't see any big things, and he always walked around with a few personal guards, and he could chat for a long time with a random person. I didn't say anything big, just talked about trivial things like eating, dressing, making money, and children going to school. ”

Zhao Yuanji was stunned for a long time, and sighed: "It's really a weird person...... Let's talk about another possibility!"

Yue Kai nodded and continued: "Another possibility is to take a step forward and advance to the west, to the west of Fangling are Tongchuan and Xicheng, both counties are possible, and the possibility of Xicheng is higher.

What is the form of Tongchuan County now?

It was called a big chaos, no less than Feng Yi and Hongnong in the past.

Most of the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou are now being dragged by us and Xu Minglong, and after sparing the circle for so long, they finally fought a few tough battles in Tongchuan, and if Li Wuchang wants to take a kick, it is the best time.

We united Xu Minglong to fight against the Liangzhou army, although we are numerous, but we do not have an advantage in combat power, if Li Wuchang is willing to spend a little effort to pull the back legs of the Liangzhou army behind his back, then Tongchuan will definitely become a bigger quagmire.

It would be quite beneficial for Li Wuchang to drag it out all the time, and he would definitely be happy to see it happen.

If Jia Song wants to break the situation quickly, he will definitely transfer troops from the surrounding counties. The two counties of Hanchuan and Qinghua to the west of Tongchuan have a slight number of troops, but Huang Mao and Dou Zhongyun are not vegetarians, so the troops of Hanchuan and Qinghua should not be moved lightly.

There is only Xicheng in the north around, but there are not many troops in Xicheng, once the troops are invested in Tongchuan, then Xicheng is equivalent to emptying, Li Wuchang can easily take it by sending a thousand elite soldiers, even if he does not occupy the city, just looting, it is enough for him to make a lot of money to consolidate the base camp of Fangling. If Xicheng is in chaos, there will definitely be many mountain kings to take advantage, and that kind of situation is also what Li Wuchang wants to see. ”

Zhao Yuanji said in a deep voice: "You mean that if Li Wuchang wants to advance westward, he is very likely to find a way to maintain the current balance of Tongchuan County, so that Jia Song will not be able to defeat us and Xu Minglong, and he will not find a way to overthrow Jia Song in one fell swoop?"

Yue Kaili said: "I'm just analyzing from Li Wuchang's point of view...... How could Jia Song be so easy to overturn? If he is not careful, Li Wuchang himself will fall into it, and he should not do such stupid things! He will not send a large army, but only a small elite team!"

Zhao Yuanji muttered, "I still want to join forces with Li Wuchang to destroy the Liangzhou army...... Wouldn't we really want to sink deeper and deeper into this quagmire, until we have a defeat with the Liangzhou army?...... No, we must find out Li Wuchang's intentions, how can he be so comfortable! If he only cares about his own well-being, I will send someone to Fangling City to ask for food, so that the other rebels can also see his grandmother's!"
