Chapter 1010
"Mr. Shen."

Xue Wei stood in front of Shen Yi, lowered his head slightly and said, "You are the last general, what orders do you have?"

Master Shen stretched out his hand to pretense, motioning for Xue Wei to sit down and talk. After Xue Wei was seated, he paused and said: "You heard what they said just now. Now our Huai'an army lacks supplies to defend the city."

Xue Wei thought for a while and replied: "Mr. Shen, it's not as exaggerated as what General Ling said. You have sent people to demolish the house, so there will be no shortage of rolling stones and the like, and we have enough manpower to defend the city." , the Qi people are unlikely to be able to attack Xuzhou City."

Shen Yi nodded slightly, and smiled at Xue Wei: "You have improved a lot now, and you have said these things clearly and logically."

It was rare for Xue Wei to be praised once, and he stretched out his hand and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Master Shen looked calm, and said: "I know that the city can be defended without arrows, but it is inevitable that more people will die."

In the absence of arrows, the difficulty of defending the city will suddenly increase, and you may even have to fight the enemy hand-to-hand.

Xue Wei sat next to Shen Yi, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Shen, you are too merciful."

"The last few years, the general, I have often read the book you gave the general, the military book written by General Zhao. In the military book, General Zhao mentioned more than once that as a general, you have to be more ruthless most of the time. "

"The subordinates think that you don't have to worry about some casualties in the army."

Xue Wei lowered his head and said: "From the anti-Japanese army to now, Mr. Shen, you have helped brothers too much."

Master Shen smiled dumbly: "First, I am not a general leading troops."

"Second, most of the time, I'm already very ruthless."

Shen Yi squinted his eyes and said softly: "In the past 20 years, apart from me, Da Chen has no other general who dared to lead his troops into the territory of the Qi people, who can take down a city like Xuzhou in the hands of the Qi people, let alone It's just me."

"The third point is..."

Master Shen said quietly: "I think that all unnecessary casualties must be avoided as much as possible. You can't stop treating human lives just because you have enough soldiers under your command and you have climbed high enough."

He looked at Xue Wei and said slowly: "I hope you can keep this in mind."

In the future, Xue Wei must go out to be an independent general. So far, this point has basically been a certainty.

Xue Wei bowed his head and cupped his fists: "Subordinate... remember."

Shen Yi didn't keep him here to teach him anything. At this point, he paused for a moment, and then said: "I'm keeping you today because I have something to discuss with you."

He looked at Xue Wei and said, "Just listen to it, if you have any disagreement, remember to speak up."

Master Shen lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and continued: "Xuzhou has been defending here for about two months, and now the reinforcements from the Qi people have arrived, and the attack on Xuzhou is becoming more and more violent day by day."

Shen Yi counted with his fingers, and said: "Before the attack on Xuzhou, I estimated that it would be better to use Xuzhou to wear down more than [-] troops of the Qi people. Now, the Qi people have consumed nearly [-] troops in Xuzhou. Twenty thousand."

"Therefore, I think there is no need to continue to be beaten passively."

Xue Wei was startled, and asked: "Mr. Shen, are you going to break out?"

"Of course not."

Master Shen shook his head and said: "I said that I will not give up Xuzhou unless it is absolutely necessary. One day in the future, Da Chen's officials will enter Xuzhou City, restore Xuzhou Mansion, register Qimin in Xuzhou, and return Xuzhou to Dachen. Within Chen's territory."

He looked at Xue Wei, smiled and said: "But if you don't break through, it doesn't mean you can't attack."

Master Shen took out a map from his drawer, pointed to Xuzhou City on the map, then looked to the south, and said, "I still have some troops to use in the south."

Shen Yi lowered his eyebrows and said, "Now, I think it's time to use them."

"After all, we are going to go to the Northern Expedition in the future. If we want to go to the Northern Expedition, we have to conquer the city and seize the territory. We can't stay in the city forever."

Speaking of this, he said to Xue Wei: "I mean, you lead 5000 people to break out of the city and go south to Suqian."

"At that time, I will issue an order to the Huaihe Navy to transfer 1 people to the north, and also take Suqian."

Having said that, Shen Yi paused for a moment, and said in a low voice: "At that time, the 5000 people will be controlled by you."

Xue Wei blinked, and said, "Mr. Shen, will the Huai River Navy cooperate obediently?"

"Will do."

Shen Yi looked calm, and said: "Their major general is in Xuzhou, and they naturally want to cooperate with me. Besides, 1 people are not many for the Huaihe Navy, and they have no reason to refuse."

"But no matter how much they ask for, they may not give it."

Shen Yi squinted his eyes, reached out and knocked on the table, and said: "5000 people captured Suqian, it was a breeze."

"However, after taking Suqian, there is no need to defend Suqian."

"You, 5000 people, are wandering on the south side of the Xuzhou battlefield."

"If you encounter a small group of enemies, surround them and attack them. If you encounter the main force of the Qi army, retreat south."

"Let the ships of the Huaihe Navy try their best to meet you."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi stood up, patted Xue Wei on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't you like fighting? If you can bring this army together this time, then the battle you will fight will be The most among all the generals of the Huai'an Army."

Xue Wei hurriedly got up, mouths together happily: "It's still Mr. Shen, take care of the last general!"

Seeing his appearance, Shen Yi shook his head helplessly, and exhorted.

"Going out this time, you have to be on your own. When you encounter something, remember to stay calm first."

"If the main force of the Qi people around Xuzhou goes south, you will retreat. If the main force of the Qi people doesn't care about you, you can stick closer to Xuzhou."

"When necessary, you can fight and cooperate with the army in the city."

Xue Wei lowered his head and cupped his fists: "The general understands!"

With his hands behind his back, Master Shen continued: "Now there are [-] imperial troops in Huai'an Mansion, and thousands of Huaihe naval forces. I will order more than [-] people to go north to attack Haizhou."

"With them in the east, whether it's Xuzhou City or yours, the pressure will be less."

Speaking of this, Master Shen closed his eyes and said slowly: "In this way, the speed at which the Qi army is consumed will suddenly increase."

"The initiative on the battlefield will not always fall into the hands of Qi people."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi patted Xue Wei on the shoulder again, and said: "Okay, I'll stop here, you go back and prepare well, before the Qi people have completely encircled Xuzhou, wait for the time to ripen in the next few days." , led the troops to break out."

All the generals of the Huai'an Army can basically be called Shen Yi's "direct line", but among these direct lines, Xue Wei is undoubtedly the one with the highest loyalty.

Therefore, this kind of risk is not small, but the reward is greater, Shen Yi's first thought is Xue Wei.

Xue Wei lowered his head and cupped his fists.

"The last will obey!"

Master Shen sat back in his seat, waved his hand, and signaled Xue Wei to leave.

After Xue Wei cupped his fists, he turned and left.

After Xue Wei left, Master Shen sat on his chair alone, staring blankly.

After being dazed for a moment, he took out a message from the inner guard from the drawer.

This information was sent from Yandu to Xuzhou Mansion yesterday, and then to Master Shen.

The content in the intelligence is not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple.

The Emperor Yongping of the Northern Qi Dynasty coughed up blood and passed out four days ago. Dozens of imperial physicians entered the palace and worked hard for a day or two before they came out!
There are rumors that Emperor Yongping has lost consciousness and lost the ability to control the situation.

The news sent by the inner guard is very accurate.

Usually some supporting evidence will be attached.

For example, it is true that Emperor Yongping has not left his bedroom for four or five days.

If this news is true, that is to say, the old thing is not far away from kicking his legs.

This is also the reason why Shen Yi wants to speed up the progress of the war.

Because if the progress here is too slow, there is no way to grasp the initiative on the battlefield. It is very likely that the new emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty will ascend the throne, and Shen Yi will still be trapped in Xuzhou and cannot move.

The most ideal situation is that when the chaos in the Northern Qi Dynasty begins, Shen Yi can control the situation near Xuzhou. When Emperor Yongping kicks his legs, he can launch the Northern Expedition with his back foot!
Thinking of this, Master Shen opened the information again and read it carefully.

"You need to know something, Zhao Zhen..."

"Don't die too slowly..."

Shen Yi looked to the north and muttered softly.

"But don't die too fast..."

　I was in my hometown two days ago, my state was ups and downs, and now I’m back~ There’s a big plot behind it, so I’m a bit slow in writing, sorry!
