In the lobby of Yunzezhai, in addition to Liu Shaoqing, who doesn't like to be lively, Luo Tianchu, Yang Tai, Xia Cheng, Zhou Lun, Li Qingwan and others all listened to the latest report with unkind expressions. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yue Fei finally made a move, the Yue family army blocked all the markets on the periphery of Dongting Lake, not allowing a grain to flow into the water village, fortunately Luo Tianchu transferred most of the grain from Tanzhou and Dingzhou in advance, otherwise the 200,000 army and the residents of 72 islands are already hungry now, Rao is so, the food is still falling rapidly, and it will not last long, although Dongting Lake is rich in fish, but it is now September and October, it is the off-season for fishing, and the meat of the 200,000 water army is far from enough to eat fish alone. The Yuejia army camped along the coast, the water and land villages were connected, the walls were strict, easy to defend and difficult to attack, coupled with the long-term lack of rain, the river bed was shallow, and the Dongting naval army, which was dominated by large warships, did not dare to attack easily, and the two armies were deadlocked.

The result of the stalemate is obviously not good for the Dongting army, if Yue Fei plans to confront each other for a long time, the only way out for the Dongting army is to force Yue Fei to fight a big battle, and to win, Yue Fei obviously understands this, so he vigorously strengthens the fortifications, so that the Dongting army does not dare to attack. Luo Tianchu was most worried about these, he thought that no matter how short of food the other party was, no matter how strong the other party's defense was, as long as the army and the people were united, there was still a way to live this game of chess, but Yue Fei's most powerful move was to release the prisoners of Tanzhou and Dingzhou, and also sent copper coins to let them go to the major markets to purchase fresh meat, rice noodles, fruits, wine and other daily necessities before going home, and also let the prices of all markets be reduced by half, and the deficit was made up by the Yue family's army. As soon as this order was given, the people went to the market like crazy to buy things, many goods were in short supply, even in the prosperous era, there was no such prosperous scene, both buyers and sellers were happy, and they all supported Yue's army.

Those captives had to go through the city gate when they went back, and Yue Fei had a notice posted on the city gate, listing Mrs. Yang's ten major crimes, what gathered the crowd to rebel, harmed the central people, bewitched the people, fooled the people, inconsistent words and deeds, embezzled people's property, etc., and explained the determination of the court to suppress bandits, and Mrs. Yang refused to recruit for his own interests, regardless of the life and death of the soldiers, and the unrighteous people had little help, so unkind and unrighteous people have the reason to be destroyed, and then introduced the strength of the king's division, what generals are thousands, with a million, don't do useless resistance, it's not too late to rein in the precipice。 Finally, the rewards of Zhao'an were listed, the earlier Zhao'an's reward was higher, and people who brought people to Zhao'an could get double rewards, and the higher the official position, the more generous the reward, a total of more than 30 articles, densely filled with a piece of paper, copied 100 copies and piled up on the table, let you take it.

As a result, 57 soldiers defected on the second day after the captives returned, and on the third day it increased to 300, Yue Fei's recruitment notice spread throughout the army, and the army was discouraged. Luo Tianchu had just heard the news that another 800 soldiers had defected and had been shot dead in the lake. "Defector killing" is a helpless way, and if you leave it alone, you don't know what kind of chaos will become.

Luo Tianchu got up and saluted, "Please Brother Yang allow me to remove me from the post of commander." Mrs. Yang was stunned and said, "Brother Xian, why is this?" Luo Tianchu sighed: "It was I who proposed the strategy of giving up the land and sticking to the island, and now it has become such a situation, and the younger brother did not expect it, and he did not dare to be the commander again." Mrs. Yang sighed and said: "How can I blame you, no one would have thought that Yue Fei would not fight head-on, and used psychological warfare, let alone that our army's heart was so vulnerable, in the end, it is to blame us for being greedy for enjoyment in the past few years, not restraining the soldiers enough, and ignoring the harassment of the people, which is why we have suffered the consequences." ”

There was silence in the hall, Li Qingwan suddenly laughed like a silver bell, and when everyone's eyes fell on her, she smiled: "Now do you want to reconsider Qingwan's proposal and assassinate Yue Fei?" Yang Hua first agreed: "Now I can only take a risk, I agree." Mrs. Yang was also quite moved, and said, "What does Brother Luo mean?" Luo Tianchu shook his head and said, "I don't agree." Yang Hua frowned and said, "Why?" Luo Tianchu said: "The reason is the same as before, first of all, we have little chance of success, and second, I disdain it." Yang Hua smiled meaningfully: "Is it disdain or unwilling?" Luo Tianchu said: "What does Lord Yang Zhai mean by this?" Yang Hua smiled indifferently: "In order not to hurt the peace, I still won't say it." Luo Tianchu also smiled: "If you don't say it clearly, you will be hurt and angry." ”

Yang Hua said: "Okay, I'll just say a few words, as far as I know, the castle lord and Yue Yun are good friends, the castle lord went to the Yue family's military camp unscathed, it can be seen that the relationship between the castle lord and the Yue family is extraordinary, and Yue Fei is so good at attacking the heart, I don't know if the commander has already been tempted, so he does not support the assassination of Yue Fei." ”

Mrs. Yang said unhappily: "Big brother, don't you forget that the lord of Luobao defeated the Song army twice, and Tanzhou killed hundreds of people alone in the first battle, almost dying, and can question the lord of the castle?" Yang Hua said: "That is the lord of Luobao before he saw Yue Fei, and now we are tired, who knows if the lord of the castle will have the same thoughts as those defecting soldiers." Luo Tianchu smiled and said: "Brother Yang, don't be impatient, please listen to the explanation." Yue Fei's heart-attacking tactics are really powerful, but he did not shake me, but shook Brother Yang, if the generals are still suspicious of each other, I am afraid that the Dongting Gang is really in danger of destruction. Second, I do admire Yue Fei's open-mindedness, but on the battlefield, I will never show mercy to his subordinates, let alone be his internal response, I will compete with him with my strength. If Brother Yang insists on assassinating, I will never stop it, but I will not participate either, so Brother Yang is satisfied?"

Mrs. Yang said: "The enemy is now, what is the matter with the fight in the nest, this topic is over, I have decided to fight Yue Fei to the death on the lake, and only by relying on a big victory can I stabilize the morale of the army." Luo Tianchu said: "This battle is imperative, the question is how to fight." Yang Taidao: "The next war book is about to fight, just about South Dongting Lake, where the water level is high, suitable for big ships to fight, if Yue Fei refuses to fight, it is cowardice, we can make a big publicity, and reinvigorate the morale of the army." ”

Luo Tianchu said happily: "This plan is wonderful, but what if Yue Fei fights?" Yang Tai smiled: "That's better, we will directly destroy his naval army and end this battle." Luo Tianchu smiled and said, "My idea is that no matter what Yue Fei's decision is, we will sneak attack that night." Mrs. Yang patted her leg and praised: "Brilliant plan! He would never have imagined that we would attack on the night of the next battle, and he was no longer an opponent in a head-to-head confrontation, and if he was attacked again, he would not even have a chance of winning." It's just that this won't be a bit of a victory?" Luo Tianchu said: "The soldiers are not tired of cheating, as long as they can solve the danger of your gang, even if they are intriguing strategies, it will not hurt." Mrs. Yang said happily: "Okay, let's ask Yue Fei to fight in three days." Yang Hua bowed and said: "Shicai is anxious in his heart, he offended the commander, and I hope that the adults will not remember the villain, forgive him, and be willing to receive a hundred military sticks." ”

Luo Tianchu smiled and said: "Brother Yang is questioning me, not not carrying out my orders, these are two different things, if the rod blames you, who will dare to correct me if I make a mistake in the future." Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "Okay, let's work out the next tactics, please stay with the commander and Mr. Xia, and the rest of the brothers go back to rest first." ”

After there were only three of them left in the hall, Yang Tai said: "I already know the tactics, I don't know if Yang Qin has won Huang Zuo's trust?" Xia Cheng said: "Since the Heavenly King handed over this matter to his subordinates, his subordinates have been in secret contact with Yang Qin, and he really lived up to his trust, and he skillfully tricked Huang Zuo to tell the truth last night, he has indeed been tied to Yue Fei, and he also wants to rebel against the Lord of Yang Zhai, the Lord of Yang Zhai pretended to hesitate, and finally agreed, and Huang Zuo did not doubt. Mrs. Yang said murderously: "What a Huang Zuo, if it weren't for the fact that he was still useful, it would have cut him with a thousand knives." Luo Tianchu groaned and said, "Have you ever thought about defeating you... I mean what if... What are your plans?" Mrs. Yang and Xia Cheng were both stunned, and Mrs. Yang said categorically: "If there really is such a day, I should live and die with Dongting." Xia Cheng smiled and said: "I'm the same, if I don't succeed, I will become a benevolent." ”

Luo Tianchu respected their integrity, so he swallowed back the words he solicited. Mrs. Yang smiled and said: "Has the commander also lost confidence in us? Although I, Mrs. Yang, have done some unbearable things, but I never want to embarrass my good friends, and if the commander is unwilling to stay here, Yang will not force it." Luo Tianchu said: "The two of you have misunderstood, I just want to understand the determination of the two, Brother Yang and the Qi State are forced by the situation, and I will also consider doing that, there is nothing unbearable." Since I am the commander of the Dongting Chamber, and I have the reason that the commander slipped away first, I should advance and retreat with everyone. Xia Cheng said happily: "We are relieved to have the words of the commander, although we are at a disadvantage now, the victory or defeat is not yet known, and there is still the possibility of turning the tables." Luo Tianchu said: "Exactly, the night attack in three days is very important, I don't know what Brother Yang proposes?" )
