So I play chess

Chapter 190
Tang Mingyi's words were not casual.

Li Mao arranged to go to Anping to falsely investigate Tang Mingming's life experience, and he also came back a few days ago. In addition to reporting what he was asked to do, he also brought some news about Anping, Guangyang and two counties.

Before, there were not many dark guards in the territory of Southern Chu, except that they had made some meticulous arrangements in these two counties.

Because the war over there directly affects the safety of Liangzhou, and at the same time, it can also take advantage of the chaos to obtain some news about Beiyu, and some people who were originally stationed in Beiyu can use some methods when the two counties are in chaos. He sneaked into Southern Chu and returned to Liangzhou, so he played a big role in the first two years.

Later, according to the arrangement of the young lady, the Liangzhou army sent troops south to take Tongcheng. Because the plan was dangerous and there were not enough people, Wen Liang and Li Mao withdrew most of them back.

At that time, Anping and Guangyang were still not in chaos. However, with the destruction of Liangzhou City and Beiyu's offensive in the east, the situation that the two counties were struggling to maintain finally collapsed. different scene.

The refugees in these two counties generally fled from west to south. Although some bullies sometimes bullied them on the road, they were generally safe.

However, to the east, where Beiyu doesn't want to take care of it, and Nanchu can't take care of it, the main decision is some defeated soldiers from Nanchu's rout, as well as the original big clan's own guard force, which is not at all controlled by Nanchu. Recognized miscellaneous army.

The behavior of these people is like bandits, but they dare not attack Nanchu in the south, and dare not attack Beiyu in the north. In the end, only the people of Nanchu who can't leave or don't want to leave are the ones who suffer.

Speaking of this, it has to be said that the root cause of this situation is that the Northern Yu went south, but the Southern Chu did not play a good role in it, and most of the court officials from the prefect to the lower level could not get away with it.

And from the prefects of these two counties to the top, few of the adults in the Lianzhou court have worried for even a day about the people of these two counties and the land that is about to fall into the enemy's hands.

So when Tang Mingyi said this sentence, Wen Gu was very disdainful in his heart.I just feel that at this time the soldiers are oppressing the border and the people are suffering, but these carnivores in Southern Chu are still planning other things.

Wen Gu wanted to return to his thoughts, but he didn't show it on his face, he just said: "Mr. Tang, what you mean is that these bandits are Liangzhou Army?"

"There is no other possibility." Tang Mingyi said firmly, "The Liangzhou Army claims to be [-], but in fact there are only [-]. They retreated all the way, and even though the young lady conquered most of them, the number is only two or three thousand at most. The rest may not all have died in Liangzhou, and it is hard to guarantee that some of them will not flee midway and become bandits."

The two numbers that Tang Mingyi said were wrong.

The Liangzhou army was indeed claimed to be over [-], but it was an imaginary number reported because Yang Wantang helped the Liangzhou army obtain some supplies such as food, grass and horses from the Southern Chu Dynasty in the early years, and he reported it for his own profit in the process.Naturally, the Liangzhou army also knew that, firstly, they had to use Yang Wantang, and secondly, they just followed him to send out a very inaccurate number.

As for the amount of four thousand, no matter whether it was discovered by Song You or Tang Mingyi himself, it all came from the handwriting of the secret guard.

Regardless of these, Zhou Tong just listened to him, and his heart became more and more unhappy, but he was angry and scolded, so he just sat there and closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.

Wen Gu doubted again: "But it is said that as far as I know, the Liangzhou army has strict military discipline, even better than many armies in Dachu. How could there be such behavior?"

Tang Mingyi only regarded this young lady as a girl with a heart. After all, her greatest achievement was to assist the prefect Liu Zhu to defeat the Liangzhou Army and regain Tongcheng. She said that the Liangzhou Army was not worthy of its name, which weakened the difficulty for her to obtain this achievement. She must have been unwilling. of.

But at present, he has to determine the identity of the Liangzhou army. In the future, regardless of whether his current plan is successful or not, Mrs. Liu's achievements must be suppressed so that she can be safely under his hands In doing things, you can't have too much credit for others before you belong to your own family.

Because of these two considerations, I had no choice but to go on: "If we say that when Wen Zong was still there, the Liangzhou Army was restrained by someone, it might not be the case, but now that the Liangzhou Army has no leader, I am afraid it is a completely different job." Appearance. The eldest lady has fought with them for a round, so she should have some experience."

After Tang Mingyi finished speaking, Zhou Tong, who had his eyes closed, suddenly let out a series of loud snores.

Tang Mingyi frowned, squinted at him, and continued: "These people have turned into bandits, far more than the bandits in Anping Guangyang..."

"Heh... huh..."

Zhou Tong's side was snoring louder, Tang Mingyi held back his impatience, paused and said again: "It's far more difficult to deal with than the Bandits in Anping Guangyang, people like the Sun family..."

"Heh... huh..."

"The death of the people of the Sun family is definitely not caused by some ordinary bandits, except..."

"Heh... huh..."

Every time Tang Mingyi said two sentences, Zhou Tong's snoring became two points heavier, which made Tang Mingyi have to increase the volume of his voice: "There is no other possibility except Liangzhou Army, so..."

"Heh... huh..."

"Commander Zou!" Tang Mingyi finally couldn't help shouting angrily, and he uttered a sentence so suddenly that he was a little slurred.

Sure enough, Zhou Tong was woken up by the sound, hummed twice, and managed to open his eyes, only to see Tang Mingyi standing in the hall, looking at him with a very unkind expression.

"Mr. Tang, you continue." Zhou Tong said vaguely, then closed his eyes again, Tang Mingyi saw that he was so unseemly, so he wanted to say it again.But before he could speak, Zhou Tong's snoring started again.

Knowing that Zhou Tong did it on purpose, Wen Gu suppressed his smile and finally called him, "Commander Zhou."

Only then did Zhou Tong pretend to be "awake" again, seeing Wen Gu looking at him, he jumped up suddenly, and tapped his breastplate: "Miss, the last general is here!"

Wen Gu did not reprimand Zhou Tong for his rude behavior, but instead said softly to him: "Commander Zhou has worked hard these days, and when we are happy to hear Mr. Tang finish, there will always be time for you to rest."

"Yes, miss." Zhou Tong responded, and simply sat back, with a straight body, staring straight at Tang Mingyi.

What Tang Mingyi said was all lies. He was interrupted by Zhou Tong several times just now, and now he was staring at him uncomfortably. All the thoughts he had organized were messed up, so he just came to a conclusion directly.

"If it's an ordinary mountain bandit, it doesn't matter whether it's the government office or the inspection department, they can make the decision, but the Liangzhou army's defeat in our Dachu territory, this matter is not just a matter of Tongcheng County."
