Master Shen used his hand to find a place on the map that was circled in red by him, and said, "Before discussing the matter, let me share my opinion. The Qi army here should be eaten as much as possible."

The place Shen Yi pointed at was Suqian.

Just a few days ago, the Northern Qi Conscript Army divided tens of thousands of troops to support Haizhou and Suqian respectively. Among them, the Qi army in Suqian was almost 2 people.

Suqian is in the south of Xuzhou.

More importantly, he was also in the north where Xue Wei was stationed.

If Shen Yi transferred the imperial guards from the east again, a natural pocket formation would be formed, enclosing Suqian in the middle.

By that time, even if the Qi army in Suqian could break out, they would suffer heavy losses.

As far as Shen Yi was concerned, if he could eat up the 2 people in Suqian, then the goal of [-] Qi troops he had set for himself earlier would be achieved in seven or eighty eighties.

At that time, regardless of whether Zhao Zhen kicked his legs or not, it seems that Master Chen Wangshi can send his troops northward to attack Hu Qi.

Seeing the position of Shen Yi's finger, Ling Su thought for a while and said, "There should be [-] Qi troops here among us. As long as the Qi people start to shrink and retreat northward, it will not be a problem for us to surround them."

Some information from the Di Baosi, especially about the military deployment of the Qi people, will still be shared with these subordinates after Shen Yi reads it, especially the two chief generals of the Huai'an Army.

Ling Su paused, and continued: "The only thing we need to pay attention to is, if the Qi people are going to withdraw northward, will the enemies in Suqian withdraw from Suqian in advance."

"If they join the main force of the Qi people, or if the main force of the Qi people comes to rescue us when we are besieging Suqian, it will be difficult to keep them."

Shen Yi nodded and said, "I've already thought about this question. I sent a letter to Xue Wei a few days ago. Xue Wei's troops are now next to Suqian. The Suqian defenders didn't go out of the city, so they didn't attack the city." .”

"My order to Xue Wei is that once the Qi army in Suqian leaves the city, he will do everything possible to stop the Suqian defenders, at least close to the Qi army."

Shen Yi tapped it with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "The 5000 enemies in Suqian should be eaten as much as possible. Ideally, the Huai'an Army from Xuzhou, plus the 2 under Xue Wei's troops, would be enough to kill them." Eat these [-] people, if something happens..."

"We can consider transferring [-] forbidden troops from the east to complete the encirclement and annihilation."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi paused, and said: "But if the forbidden army from the east is transferred here, then the result of our battle this time will most likely be the defenders in Suqian."

After Shen Yi spoke, he looked at Su Ding and said, "What do you think, General Su?"

Su Ding kept his gaze on the map in front of him. After careful consideration, he said, "Mr. Shen, what the people of Qi think is not yet clear. The strength of our army has not been fully contracted, there are Qi troops on all sides of Xuzhou, maybe our army can tentatively attack the Qi army in the west or north."

"First, it's to test the attitude of Qi people."

"Secondly, maybe we can take the opportunity to collect some interest back."

General Su lowered his head slightly, and continued: "What's more, if the Qi people blindly shrink their defenses, Duke Shen can start to make arrangements for Suqian."

"If we plan ahead, General Xue's troops, together with our Huai'an army in Xuzhou, can eat up the Qi army in Suqian. At that time, the imperial army in the east can block the reinforcements of the Qi people in the east, or block the Qi army retreating north. people, in order to accomplish what Shen Gong said, to kill and injure the enemy's vital forces to the greatest extent."

Shen Yi squinted his eyes, thought for a while, then nodded and said: "This is a good idea, but don't act too hastily. In the past few days, send more scouts out to investigate the situation, and wait until the enemy has no tendency to attack Xuzhou. Then go out of the city on a large scale It's not too late to try."

Having said that, the Huai'an army's movements for the next period of time basically set the tone.

After the three of them chatted about the details again, Shen Yi got up in person and sent the two of them away.

Walking to the gate of Zhizhou Yamen, Shen Yi bowed his hands to the two, and said with a smile: "Two generals, if this battle is fought well, the imperial court can start the northern expedition immediately. At that time, both of you will be great heroes. , It is not difficult to seal a wife and a son."

The two bowed together.

"Thank you Mr. Shen for cultivating it!"

………………

Yandu.

I don't know if the emperor was worrying too much, since the last time he coughed up blood and passed out, his body has been getting worse day by day.

In the first few days, he was able to eat and rest normally every day. Later, the time he was awake every day was less and less every day.

Half a month later, Emperor Yongping was awake for no more than five hours a day.

In other words, most of the time every day, he was in a coma.

And every time after waking up, the brain is dizzy, and it takes a long time to recover slowly.

After waking up that day, Emperor Yongping seemed to be in better spirits. Accompanied by the chief eunuch Liu Yi, he sat in a sedan chair and went around the back garden.

After eating at noon, he lay down in his study, closed his eyes and rested for a while, and said, "Tell me, what have you been doing during this time..."

The chief eunuch bowed his head respectfully, and explained everything that King Qi and King Wei had done recently.

Because King Qi had to act as an agent for the government, he spent most of his time in the meeting hall except returning to the Xiude Hall every morning to greet him.

According to the two prime ministers in the meeting hall, King Qi can handle many things in the meeting hall properly.

Speaking of this, the chief eunuch Liu Yi paused, bowed his head and said, "As for His Royal Highness King Wei, it seems that he has been in close contact with the First Prince recently..."

"Boss..."

The eldest prince Liang Wang Zhaotong...

Emperor Yongping raised his eyelids and sighed slightly in his heart.

Earlier, because the battle in the south was not going well, he was very worried about Zhu Lizhen's future, so he ordered the eldest prince Zhao Tong to select young and strong from Zhu Lizhen's real people, and retrain a Zhu Lizhen cavalry.

If I remember correctly, at that time he prepared for the boss...

1 million people.

These 1 people are usually not very eye-catching, but at this juncture, it is a bit critical.

And at this juncture, it is self-evident what the purpose of the fourth child's relationship with his elder brother is.

Thinking of this, the emperor frowned slightly.

The boss has soldiers in his hands, so it's not surprising that the fourth child wants to win him over. The question is, how does the fourth child plan to subdue the boss who has soldiers in his hands...

Emperor Yongping silently raised his head, looked at Liu Yi, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"The Department of Purity reported that General Zhou's son, Zhou Yuanlang, seems to have frequently been in and out of Prince Wei's Mansion recently..."

Hearing this, the emperor's frowning brows stretched out.

Because the logic is smooth.

The emperor sat in his seat, took a breath, frowned again, and took a few deep breaths again, but he couldn't feel his breathing was smooth.

A dark cloud lingered in his mind.

At this moment, Emperor Yongping felt a little sad.

The emperor who has been in power for more than 30 years, only at this moment can he truly feel that he...

It seems that the end of life is really not long.

After a long silence, the emperor finally made up his mind and said, "Go invite Tong Jian, Ma Cheng, and Yan Li to the palace to see me."

Liu Yi quickly bowed his head, went to the meeting hall in person, and invited the three prime ministers into the palace.

The three prime ministers went all the way to Xiude Hall. After seeing the emperor, they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Old minister, kowtow to the emperor..."

The emperor took the medicine now, and his complexion improved a little. After waving his hands, he said, "Speak with your body."

The three stood up respectfully.

The emperor looked at the three of them, and cut straight to the point: "I have been thinking about it for many days in the Forbidden Palace, and I have already decided on a candidate for the crown prince."

Emperor Yongping said slowly: "I am determined to pass on the throne to the fourth son of the emperor, Zhao Kai."

"Three prime ministers, be a witness, and go to draft the decree later."

The three prime ministers were taken aback at the same time, and then the two prime ministers Zhu Lizhen, Tong Jian and Ma Cheng, knelt down at the same time, lowered their heads and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, think twice..."

The old Tong Jian bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, King Qi has been in charge of the government for many days and is well-organized, and King Qi Xiang has a virtuous name, Your Majesty..."

Emperor Yongping frowned slightly.

As the emperor of Yuji for more than 30 years, he did not have the patience of Emperor Hong De to quarrel with the prime ministers.

"I asked you to come, just to be a witness, and at the same time draw up the imperial edict..."

"I'm not asking for your opinion."

After the emperor finished speaking in one breath, he coughed violently a few times, and it took him a long time to recover.

"Let's draw up an imperial edict."

Hearing his words, the two prime ministers Zhu Lizhen, who were kneeling on the ground, looked at each other in a tacit understanding.

There seemed to be some sinisterness in his eyes.

"My lord, please follow my orders..."
