Chapter five hundred and fiftieth IX

Han Shiyan pondered for a moment and said in a serious tone, "Under the current situation, we can't help Xingyang to win enough time for Yue Gong to advance westward, nor can we ensure that the soldiers escape unstoppable. Of course, we must plan for changes and must not stay in a corner and wait for death."

"How to make a change?" Gu Jue immediately asked.

"As you said, if the King of Qi loses his mind and attacks us with all his strength, coupled with the cooperation of the navy, as well as the attacks of King Yang Qing and the commander of Xingyang Cui Baode, with our existing strength, it will not last for a few days, and the morale of the army will eventually collapse and be wiped out." Han Shiye said, "Since King of Qi has determined the fate of the Xingyang battlefield and even the fate of Duke Yue, then we will directly aim at King Qi and take the initiative to attack."

Gu Jue frowned. Changing passive defense to active defense is a good way to stick to the battlefield in Xingyang. But the problem is that this kind of strategic change not only requires fighter opportunities, but also strength. Without strength, even if the opportunity is right in front of you, you are powerless and unable to catch it.

"I would like to hear it carefully." Gu Jue bowed and asked for advice.

"We all know that the King of Qi and the White-haired Thief have a tacit understanding. This can be seen from the fact that Dong Chun, the left-behind Pengcheng, attacked Jindi Pass. The two sides fought lively, but no one could do anything to each other. It was obvious that the thunder and rain were small, and the bluff was bluffing. We had been expecting the King of Qi to enter the capital before, and always thought that Dong Chun had a tacit understanding with us. In fact, we were all wrong. Dong Chun's real purpose was to "cover, and the White-haired Thief evacuate the capital. I can be sure that when the White-haired Thief arrives at Jindi Pass, I will definitely defeat Dong Chun, tear a hole from the defense line of the heavenly chasm, and then Dong Chun's "destroyed his merits and attacked the Huzhu three times with Zhou Fashang and Wang Yang Qing. You and I are outnumbered and the entire army is wiped out."

Gu Jue understood as soon as he heard this, Han Shiye's primary goal was Dong Chun, who used the trick to catch Dong Chun off guard with the power of the white-haired thief, and severely injured Dong Chun, but how could the white-haired thief agree?

"The white-haired thief will not be used by you." Gu Jue shook his head and said.

"But the white-haired thief was used by the King of Qi." Han Shiye said, "How could he participate in this mutiny with the meager power of the white-haired thief? He must have supported the King of Qi behind him, and the King of Qi gave him a promise that he could not refuse. It was just that this promise was false. The King of Qi lied to him. Although he grabbed the King of Qi for this reason, this handle could not be caught. If he caught it, he would die. In order to silence him, the King of Qi would definitely clear all traces. How could he leave his life?"

"You have convinced the white-haired thief?" Gu Jue asked in surprise.

Han Shiye immediately became alert and shook his hand, "The white-haired thief only trusts himself, and no one else trusts. In the last moment of the decisive battle in Mianchi, Yue Gong wanted to eat him. If he hadn't escaped quickly, it would have been over now. Such a profound lesson丨How could the white-haired thief forget? If he had been in a different place, would you still trust Dong Chun? Will you still believe in the promise of King Qi?"

Gu Jue understood, "For his own safety plan, the white-haired thief must be on guard everywhere. Regardless of whether Dong Chun has the idea of ​​killing him, both sides will have conflicts, and your opportunity will come."

Han Shiye nodded repeatedly, "The white-haired thief was worried that Dong Chun would go back on his word, and was also wary of someone's ulterior motives, so he agreed to follow him. If Dong Chun attacked and showed his murderous intention, he would join forces with him to kill Dong Chun, so that he could find an opportunity to break through the siege and escape. After we defeated Dong Chun, we could also hold on the battlefield of Xingyang for a longer time, which was beneficial to each other; on the contrary, if Dong Chun kept his promise and broke through successfully, he would hand over Jindi Pass to him as a reward for help. A soldier would not only get to Jindi Pass under the dangers, but also continue to cut off the Tongji Canal, which would also help us to defend the battlefield of Xingyang."

This plan sounds perfect, seamless and flawless, but because of this, a hint of uneasiness suddenly surged in Gu Jue's heart. After Han Shiye led his army to Jindi Pass, he either joined forces with the white-haired thief to defeat Dong Chun or easily got the pass from the white-haired thief. No matter how the situation changes, Han Shiye is a beneficiary. There is such a good thing in the world?

While pretending to be contemplative, Gu Jue read the letter in his hand again. With a high degree of alertness and even a certain targeting, looking at Yang Xuangan's letter, Gu Jue immediately noticed something unusual.

Yang Xuangan drew a "cake" for them, and this "cake" was to predict that the white-haired thieves would cross the river to the north, or even find a way to the northern border. The reason was very simple. Once the King of Qi successfully "blacklisted" the Holy Lord and obtained enough political benefits, he could temporarily extend his political life. After he planned to kill the white-haired thieves for his own interests, he would definitely kill the white-haired thieves to silence the mouth. The white-haired thieves were prepared for this mutiny. He used this mutiny to let the alliance army cross the river to the north, completing a strategic transfer. Therefore, after the white-haired thieves "escape" from the capital, they would definitely cross the river to the north.

Why did Yang Xuangan tell the story of the white-haired thief in the letter in detail? Gu Jue only realized Yang Xuangan's "painful efforts" until this moment. It turned out that Yang Xuangan did not abandon them, but gave them a way to escape, that is, to follow Li Fengyun, as long as he saves his life, there is still a lot of potential in the future.

"Mr. Yue still sees the situation in the Xingyang battlefield very clearly." Gu Jue deliberately tempted and pretended to question, "If you want to stick to the Xingyang battlefield until the last moment, you must leave a white-haired thief. The white-haired thief escapes. Even if you defeat Dong Chun, even if you occupy Jindi Pass, we will still not be able to hold on to the last moment under the opponent's three-way attack, unless the Duke Yue is invincible on the road to westward and is as powerful as a rock."

Han Shiye sneered, "How to keep the white-haired thief? Even the Yue Gong can't keep the white-haired thief. Can you still keep him? Are you a fool in the white-haired thief? Are you willing to accompany us to die?"

Gu Jue became more and more uneasy. He smelled a trace of despair from Han Shiyan's words. If the white-haired thief ran away, Han Shiyan would also run away. Can he defend the battlefield in Xingyang with his own troops alone? It's a dream.

Gu Jue looked at Han Shiyan with bright eyes, and Han Shiyan also looked at Gu Jue calmly. At this moment, both sides had a plan in their hearts. Gu Jue had already realized that Han Shiyan was about to "run", but he had no evidence and could not make random suspicions to avoid making trouble. Han Shiyan was full of confidence. So what if you doubt me? Unless I ran away, you can do nothing without evidence. What can you do to me?

"How many people have you brought to Jindi Pass?" Gu Jue asked.

"Five thousand men." Han Shiye waved his hand and said without hesitation, "The important task of guarding the Huzhu will be entrusted to you."

Gu Jue sighed secretly, he could not raise objections, and now that things have come to this, he can only pray to God and take one step at a time.

Han Shiyan successfully convinced Gu Jue, and the two immediately formulated specific arrangements. Han Shiyan led the army from Niuzhukou and Bianzhu to Jindi Pass to fight. Gu Jue was in charge of Huzhu, taking care of Jindi to the east, and joining Luokoucang to the west to support him.

That night, Han Shiyan took his personal guards to leave Hulao and hurried to Niuzhukou and Bianzhu to mobilize the army. Gu Jue sent people to Luokoukoukoukou to transfer grain in Hulao, while urgently writing to Yang Xuangan to report the changes in the battle situation in Xingyang.

On the sixth day of the seventh month, Jindi Pass.

The main force of the alliance led by Li Fengyun and the Cavalry led by Lu Mingxing successfully met. The soldiers cheered and were very excited. Although the army was still surrounded by the Guard Army, one foot was already on the defense line of the natural barrier. As long as you jump hard, you can break through the siege and escape from your natural birth. You can imagine how excited you are.

Lu Mingxing reported in detail the current situation. Pengcheng stayed at Dong Chun to attack Jindi Pass every day on the eastern front, and naval warships frequently threatened Tongji Canal on the northern front. Xun Wang Yangqing and Wu Benlang General Liu Changgong frequently attacked on the western front to join Dong Chun and the navy to regain control of Tongji Canal. The alliance army was under three sides of the Guard Army. The situation was very bad, and the soldiers' willingness to evacuate became stronger and stronger. Lu Mingxing took great pressure. Fortunately, it was lucky. In an emergency, Li Fengyun finally arrived with the main force and guarded until the clouds opened and the bright moon was seen.

"The Shan brothers and Wang brothers in Wagang have helped each other with righteous help. They have led two thousand brothers to secretly lurk on both sides of the Jishui River. Just when we break out of the defense line, they bluffed under the banner of the Korean Prime Minister to attract the attention of the Guardian army and local governments, and help us escape from the shell." Lu Mingxing finally said the key point, and his voice was also solemn. "General Manager Zhai led some brothers to the river north, lurking in the Lihu Xu fleet, and responded to us to cross the river at any time."

Li Fengyun nodded repeatedly to express his approval. He gave him a pet and repaid him with Li. At the critical moment, the Wagang brothers still promised righteousness. I wrote down this favor and repay him a hundred times in the future. As for Li Mi, this time he stabbed the knife in the back and plotted against the alliance to death. With this hatred, he must repay him well in the future and not give him any chance to hurt the Wagang brothers.

"According to the Wagang Brothers' Newspaper, Meng Haigong also went out. Under the banner of alliance, he had crossed the Bian River and plundered Liang County, and cooperated with the Wagang Brothers to attract the attention of the officials in Song and Yu." Lu Mingxing continued, "Although we and the Wagang Brothers did not seek help from him, he still took the initiative to help, with proper plans, clear goals, and good timing. It helped us evacuate the capital and cross the river to the north."

"This favor is too great, and I will definitely repay it in the future." Li Fengyun sighed. Think about it carefully. Compared with the siege of the cruel, ruthless, despicable and shameless nobles he encountered on the battlefield of Dongdu, it is really not worth mentioning. The butt determines the head, status determines the vision, and identity determines the concept. People of different classes not only have different interests but also have completely different ways of fighting. Compared with the endless bloody battle in Dongdu, the struggle between the alliance brothers is much gentler, and often it is spirit and still retains a lot of warmth.

"Can you contact you on the other side?" Li Fengyun asked.

"Yes. The opposite side seems to be very anxious, and the urging is very tight." Lu Mingxing frowned and looked worried. "Especially, the urging is even more powerful these days, and it is even threatening." He said this and looked at Li Fengyun and asked in confusion, "Is there something unexpected happening in Li Yang?"

"It's not too much accident. I guess someone has come from the palace." Li Fengyun said lightly, "The current situation is very unfavorable to Dongdu. The Holy Lord will definitely give in to the King of Qi. If the King of Qi is determined to go north, the negotiation will be very simple." Li Fengyun turned to look at Lu Mingxing and sighed, "However, the King of Qi is too difficult to make the determination to make the decision to make the decision. He used to be prominent, had a high position and a high position and had a good life. Now he was allowed to live a hard life, and the gap was too big, and it was difficult to accept. In this case, if the Holy Lord took retreat as a step forward and tempted him with power, he would first trick him into Dongdu and into the cage, and then he would be easy to deal with him."

"The King of Qi is not so naive, right?" Lu Mingxing was skeptical. "This is going to make the father and son turn against each other. He still has fantasies about the Holy Lord?"

"Do you know how great the temptation of the crown prince is?" Li Fengyun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That is an irresistible temptation for the King of Qi. Even if Dong is a trap, he will jump down without hesitation."

Lu Mingxing realized the seriousness of the problem, "Since Ming Gong has such an estimate, can he have a countermeasure?"

"Dangyang Gong (Wei Fusi) withdrew from the Dongdu with me." Li Fengyun said, "Now I can only rely on him, but I can't give my fate to others. We must cross the river north as quickly as possible."

Lu Mingxing certainly agreed, "We are leaving, who will Jintiguan give to? Should I leave it to Dong Chun or Gu Jue?"

Li Fengyun smiled slightly, "Don't you want to know the outcome of the decisive battle in Mianchi?"

Lu Mingxing was confused. Didn’t Yang Xuangan win? Is there another mystery behind this? "I wish to hear the good fortune."

"Yang Xuangan won the decisive battle in Mianchi, but he lost the mutiny."

Lu Mingxing didn't understand, listen respectfully. After Li Fengyun said in detail, Lu Mingxing couldn't help but want to scold people. He was a fake gentleman and real villain. Yang Xuangan's methods were too despicable.

"Yang Xuangan can't enter Guanzhong?" Lu Mingxing finally asked for verification to avoid misunderstanding.

Li Fengyun nodded, "The good situation was ruined by him."

Lu Mingxing understood it.
