One hundred and sixty seventh chapter floating horse (14)(1/2)
Yuqianxing, located between Luolongtan and Dengzhou Camp, is a mess up and down.
Needless to say, I walked and ran all the way, and the civilians fled far faster than the sergeants, so that the logistics line became more and more empty, which made everyone feel grassy... Obviously everyone knew that the food in the camp was actually enough to survive.
It took me three trips to Dengzhou and back, but people still came to check on the grain and horses every day.
As for the above, they have to consider the matter privately while facing emergencies on the front line publicly.
"It must be a fake surrender!"
"Why is this a false surrender? Do you doubt the saint's mighty virtue?"
"Whether he is pretending to surrender or not, since he has gained entrance, send Fulong Guards out and escort this person back with the Fulong Seal!"
"If the Fulong Guards move, how will the imperial front be stable? How do you know this is not a Dongyi people's strategy?"
"This is a golden opportunity to determine victory in one fell swoop... As long as Li Ziqi is captured, Dongyi will undoubtedly truly surrender!"
"That's right. This person is a great master and a great governor. His prestige in the fifty states of Dongyi is higher than that of the king. As long as we capture this person, Dongyi has only one way to completely surrender."
"You also know that he is a great master? Let me ask you, why is this man alone among thousands of armies, but cannot be controlled by the general?"
"Well……"
"Because he is a great master! Although General Yu is also a master and has 50,000 elites, he can only defeat and suppress him, but not enough to subdue him. He can come when he wants and leave when he wants."
"That's why we have to send Fulong Guards!"
"Fulongwei also has the shortcomings of Fulongwei. Fulongwei is only good at defending, but not easy to attack. Once Fulongwei passes by, halfway through, the Grand Master in turn got rid of General Yu and headed straight for this place.
What should we do? The safety of the saint comes first."
"But...if Fulongwei doesn't go, how can we control the Grand Master?"
"Three grandmasters are enough to control a great master who has left the tower. Thirty pill condensation masters can form a formation, which is enough to restrain him. Three hundred masters of magical scriptures can do it without the Fulong Seal... these are all
There are examples of battles."
"what do you want to say in the end?"
"You can ask all the frontline armies to send out experienced officers and elite sergeants to gather at the general, and then move forward quickly here. Please personally supervise the army, and lead the Fulong Guards to hold the Fulong Seal across Luolongtan to capture this thief...
…then everything will be fine!”
"No! How can a saint with a body of thousands of gold pass through Luolongtan in person before the situation becomes unclear?"
"It's really not possible. It's a bit sloppy to gather frontline training officers and sergeants!"
"Can I just issue the Fulong Seal?"
"Wouldn't this be the result of self-destruction of Fulongwei?"
"How about Duke Fa Niu and Lai Zhuguo go to help alone?"
"It's better to send Fulongwei and Fulongyin!"
In front of the main tent, Zhang Xing, who heard about the major changes on the front line and immediately came here with the help of Eunuch Yu, listened to the argument for half an hour. He had completely awakened in his heart and stopped wasting time.
, but simply turn back.
But not far from the main tent of the Chinese army, he met an acquaintance head-on. It was Sima Zheng, the general of Huben Zhonglang.
"General Sima." Zhang Xing bowed his hands and saluted, eager to return to camp.
"Deputy Zhang!" Unexpectedly, Sima Zheng suddenly turned sideways and stopped Zhang Xing. "Has there been any results at the Chinese army's headquarters?"
"Not yet." Zhang Xingyi said.
Sima Zheng obviously hesitated for a moment, and then tried his best to continue asking: "Zhang Sanlang... I always admire your wisdom the most. What do you think the outcome of this matter will be?"
Zhang Xing obviously hesitated for a moment, but he soon came to his senses and immediately responded seriously: "General Sima, the army is out there and has no roots. As a deputy inspector in charge of logistics in Fulongwei, what qualifications do I have to talk about military affairs?
And it’s still a prediction? If someone heard it, they would kill me immediately, and I deserve it.”
Sima Zheng was silent for a moment, nodded, and allowed the other party to leave.
On the other side, Zhang Xing quickly returned to the small camp where Fulong Guards, some Jinwu Guards, and Beiya's father-in-laws lived together, and then went directly into his tent.
Qin Bao and Zhou Xingfan saw this and followed directly, while Qian Tang and Wang Zhen hesitated and chose to stay outside and wait in confusion.
"Something's going to happen..." Zhang Xing glanced at Xiao Zhou and spoke calmly. "I originally thought that even if this battle was going to be defeated, it was because the people fled too much and then the supplies could not be sustained. Then the army retreated on its own and returned without success.
But now it seems that the defeat will be faster and more complete."
Qin and Zhou were all stunned, and then almost all shook their heads... Obviously, they didn't believe it.
"I know you don't believe it, but you have to take responsibility whether you believe it or not. Just think of it as prepared." Zhang Xing saw this and did not explain. "Just as I said before, Qin Bao prepared the horses and Xiao Zhou prepared them."
Have dry food and weapons... be ready to retreat at any time without being noticed by others."
Qin Zhouren reluctantly nodded.
But soon, it was Zhou Xingfan who, perhaps because he was worried about his father, perhaps because he had always admired Zhang Xing, or perhaps because of his temper, could not help but ask in a low voice:
"Is there any reason for Third Brother to say this? Didn't it mean that the Governor of Dongyi has turned his back and surrendered with courtesy?"
"That's it." Zhang Xing shook his head in reply. "The Governor of Dongyi is the great master. He is claiming to be surrendering at this time, and although he joins the army alone, he can leave as long as he wants to. Although Yu Shuwen
He is also a master, but he can't stop him... What kind of surrender is this?"
"That's true..." Qin Bao nodded immediately. "But he is dignified... almost the foundation of a country... Why is this so?"
"In order to find out the truth." Zhang Xing explained seriously. "The Dongyi people themselves are also in great difficulty. They have to compete with us here... Both sides look like they have only one breath left, so at this time, there is nothing better than the general coming to the other side in person.
Let's take a look at a better way among the most elite vanguard army... But we have to divide our troops in the front again. Although Wanjun is not afraid of the people in the world, it can't stop the coming and going of a great master. He has calculated it.
.”
"That's the truth." Qin Erlang became inexplicably nervous. "Then, what will he notice? Is there anything wrong with General Yu? Logistics supplies? We must take him down here, right? He can only hurry up when the time comes.
Run away? What can you see in just one or two days, or two or three days?"
"I don't know." Zhang Xing shook his head in response. "I don't understand military matters, but political fatalities and overall weakness will be exposed without a doubt... I just heard it very clearly... In fact, there are at least three
Taking down the opponent is a standard response."
Qin Bao and Zhou Xingfan were slightly refreshed.
"First, gather the sergeants and officers with advanced skills on the front line and form a formation on the spot to control the opponent; second, put Lai Gong and Niu Du Gong in front of the emperor and quickly send to the front line. Combined with the power of the three masters, we can
Trap the opponent; thirdly, sending us and the Fulong Seal to the front line will be enough to control the great master..." At this point, Zhang Xing finally showed a hint of emotion, and let out a faint sigh.
"The Grand Master is by no means anything that cannot be dealt with. Any of these three methods will work, or a mixture of them will work, but a saint will not use any of them!"
Qin Bao and Xiao Zhou were completely puzzled.
Especially Xiao Zhou, he thought about it again and again, but he really didn't understand: "Why not?"
"The first way is to be afraid of who will rebel on the front line." Qin Bao lowered his voice in the tent. "This is understandable. All the elite practitioners in one person can control the Grand Master, the Grand Master, and the Dragon Guard.
, can better control the rear army... This is not something that didn't happen in ancient times. Once the military power is given up, the frontline generals are unstoppable, and they may immediately wear yellow robes... Therefore, don't say that the saint will not agree, even the frontline generals will not agree.
He will take the initiative to hand over his elite practitioners to an army."
"Yang Shen has learned from the past. Once bitten by a snake, he will be afraid of well ropes for ten years." After Xiao Zhou understood it, it became easier to understand. "Besides, those people in Guanlong were raised like this, so it is right to be careful... And
If you put it this way, I actually understand. Then the Governor of Dongyi realized that he could not be directly controlled by the front line, and could only control him with support from the rear, so he could be so calm... But why did Brother Zhang say, after
Even the two methods don’t work? Can’t we go? Can’t Lai Gong and Niu Du Gong go?”
"You can't go!" Zhang Xing looked at Xiao Zhou and explained word by word. "Fulongwei, Fulongyin, Niu Dugong and Laigong, none of them can go... Not only can they not go, but also unless the front is determined,
Otherwise, the army at the rear will never take a step beyond Luolongtan... This is also because once bitten by a snake, it will be afraid of the rope for ten years; and it is also because it regards the world as a child's play and others as nothing. The so-called hundreds of thousands of people on the front line,
The victory or defeat of the Eastern Expedition is not worth the slightest risk to one's own life... As for the fact that the game got away in the end, the whole world and the Wei Dynasty collapsed, and the monarchy in one's own hands was irrevocable, then naturally it was other people's fault, and it had nothing to do with myself.
unrelated."
"I don't believe it." After hearing this, Xiao Zhou thought about it seriously and suddenly realized what the other party was talking about in his somewhat confused words, but immediately denied it.
But after denial, there is panic.
Without him, the man in front of him was the one Mr. Zhou had ever seen in his life. He might not be the most talented, the best born, or the deepest in cultivation, but he was the smartest in terms of people's hearts and politics.
"I..." Qin Bao also spoke, but seemed a little frustrated. "It would be great if Zhong Cheng was here."
"Don't you know why Zhongcheng is not here?" Zhang Xing asked coldly.
"Is there no way?" Xiao Zhou tried his best to speak. "For example, the two husbands... Zhang... Mr. Yu..."
Having said this, Xiao Zhou himself became silent.
"The two Xianggongs, and Xianggong Sima..." Qin Bao became more and more frustrated. "The reason why Your Majesty brought these three Xianggongs was because he knew that they would only obey the emperor's wishes...especially Xianggong Zhang. He was the one who spied on this expedition.
If the saint's thoughts are mentioned, it is considered good if it does not add fuel to the fire."
"I'm going to find Mr. Lai." Xiao Zhou stood up in a daze. "Ask him to go and remonstrate with the saint..."
Zhang Xing said nothing, but when Xiao Zhou was about to leave the tent, Qin Bao suddenly stepped forward to block him.
Xiao Zhou was stunned for a moment and immediately realized: "I can't speak what Brother Zhang said, I can only say it is my own speculation."
Qin Bao glanced at Zhang Xing, only to find that the latter was staring above his head, but soon, Zhang Sanlang met Qin Erlang's gaze, and then nodded slightly.
Xiao Zhou rushed out of the tent as if he had been granted amnesty.
