Chapter 969 Layout
Early the next morning, the sky slowly brightened.

All night.

Shen Yi, who likes to sleep late, also got up early today. After getting dressed, he stood at the door of the tent and looked in the direction of Haizhou City.

After Su Ding finished setting up the combat mission, he appeared behind Shen Yi. He followed Shen Yi's gaze and asked with a smile, "What is Mr. Shen looking at?"

"I'm looking at the Qi people in Haizhou City."

Master Shen looked back at Su Ding, and suddenly smiled.

"The people of Qi are rotten."

Su Ding also nodded, and said, "That's right, if the last general leads the army in Haizhou and is pushed twenty miles below the city by the enemy, even if the number of people is equal, even if he doesn't go out of the city to meet the enemy, he will send people to harass him at night." , not to let the enemy rest."

"But last night, nothing happened all night."

Su Ding also looked at Haizhou, and said in a low voice: "These people from Qi are really timid."

"It's not timid."

Shen Yi smiled and said: "That General Zhou sent people across the Huaihe River several times last year to harass our Huai'an army. Many times he made dangerous moves frequently, and he is not at all timid."

"The reason why he can hold back and shrink in the city now is only one possibility."

With his hands behind his back, Shen Yi said with a smile: "He can't afford to lose."

"Last year, the southern army fought very badly, but at the end of the year, they reported their meritorious service to the Northern Qi court and received a reward. Whether it is Zhou Shizhong or the Qi emperor, they all know what is going on. of."

"This incident, of course, took care of the face of the emperor of Qi, but it really hurt Lizi."

"If I were Emperor Qi, I would definitely be annoyed."

"Zhou Shizhong also knew this. He knew that the emperor was angry with him, so he didn't dare to make a mistake. He had already suffered a hidden loss in the first battle a few days ago. If he rushed into the army again, he would suffer another defeat. "

Shen Shilang was in a very happy mood at the moment, he said with a smile: "I'm afraid the Emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty won't be able to tolerate him."

"At the end of the day, it's General Zhou who is afraid of losing his position, so he seeks stability in everything, and presumably is thinking of sending troops over to drive us north of the Huaihe River."

The reason why the word "drive out" is used instead of eliminated is because, under the current circumstances, it is already difficult for Zhou Shizhong to eliminate Shen Yi's Huai'an army.

Last year, Shen Yi had only 3 to [-] troops at his command. At that time, even if they all crossed the Huai River and reached the north bank, they might be surrounded by Qi people and wiped out.

Now, Shen Yi has 5 people.

Not to mention whether Zhou Shizhong could transfer all the [-] soldiers from the south to the east, even if he had the ability and courage, Shen Yi and the tens of thousands of people could calmly retreat to the south bank.

Su Ding was stunned by Shen Yi's words, and after a long time, he slowly shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Even if you listen to Shen Yi's detailed explanation, the general will need to think about it before he can make sense of it. Mr. Shen, you can analyze the enemy's situation so thoroughly in just a moment."

"It's really amazing," he said with emotion.

Shen Yi glanced back at the big man, and laughed dumbfoundedly: "This is all human nature. Put yourself in the position and push it down, and you can push it out. How can it be as mysterious as you said?"

"Okay, don't worry about me here, you can arrange to preside over the military. The attack on Haizhou in the past few days has to be done in a decent manner. When necessary, you can fight boldly. There is a high probability that the people of Qi will not go out of the city. .”

Su Ding lowered his head and said, "The general will understand!"

After all, he turned to leave.

But Shen Yi didn't follow to the battlefield, after all, it was just a feint at this time, so he didn't need to worry about it.

After looking at Haizhou for a while, Master Shen went back to his big tent of the Chinese army.

In the big tent, a middle-aged man about 30 years old had been waiting for Shen Yi for a while. Shen Yi looked at him and asked with a smile, "When did you come? Have you had breakfast?"

This person is Luo Yong, the secretary of the Dibao Department.

After Shen Yi left Southeast and returned to Jiankang, Luo Yong was mainly in charge of Shen Yi's intelligence work, especially after arriving in Huai'an, this Luo Siwu played a key role many times.

Luo Yong lowered his head slightly, called Si Zheng, and then replied politely: "The subordinate just arrived, I will report the situation to you first, and just eat a little later."

Shen Yi sat down and called Jiang Sheng. After Jiang Sheng came over, he said with a smile: "Go and get some food for Luo Siwu, don't starve our great hero."

Jiang Sheng responded with a smile, and went down to prepare food.

Luo Yong hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Sizheng, your subordinates are not worthy of any meritorious service."

"Jiankang and Huai'an's residence newspaper department, as well as nearby intelligence work, are all handled by you, Luo Siwu. Last year, you did a great job in guarding Huai'an. Why aren't you a hero?"

Shen Yi pointed to the chair and signaled Luo Yong to sit down. After he sat down, Master Shen asked, "Did you contact Lin Sheng?"

Luo Yong nodded cautiously, lowered his head and said with emotion: "Until you mentioned it to me a few days ago, Si Zheng, my subordinates did not know that Siwu Lin had gone to the north. Previously, my subordinates always thought that he was transferred to the southwest..."

In order to hide Lin Sheng's identity, Shen Yi first transferred him away from Jiankang on the surface, concealed his whereabouts, and finally sent him secretly to the north.

Luo Yong said with emotion: "It is only now that I know that Siwu Lin has gone on to do something important. Before that, his subordinates also worked with him in Jiankang. It is really incredible."

Master Shen took a sip of tea and said, "I'll talk about the emotion later, what does Lin Sheng say?"

Luo Yong just came back to his senses, bowed his head and said, "Sizheng, what Lin Siwu means is that before your soldiers arrive in Xuzhou, you must greet him a few days in advance, so that he can arrange things calmly..."

"Otherwise, things won't be easy."

Shen Yi frowned thoughtfully, "How many days earlier?"

"Siwu Lin said that four or five days is better."

Hearing this, Master Shen frowned again.

Marching and fighting, divulging movements in advance is a relatively big taboo.

Not to mention four or five days in advance.

Seeing Shen Yi frowning, Luo Yong quickly bowed his head and said, "Sizheng, everything in the military is confidential. It is really dangerous to leak it four or five days in advance. I will send someone to communicate with Siwu Lin..."

Master Shen closed his eyes, thought for a while, and then said: "Tell him, I've accepted him."

Shen Yi paused, and said: "However, things on the battlefield change rapidly, and I may not be able to inform him five days in advance."

"But no matter what, it will definitely happen two or three days in advance."

Luo Yong still wanted to speak, but Shen Yi waved his hand and said, "If I didn't believe him, I wouldn't be in the north of the Huaihe River just because of his letter."

Luo Yong was deeply moved, bowed his head and said: "This subordinate obeys orders!"

While the two were talking, Jiang Sheng had already brought in a meal and placed it in front of Luo Yong.

Master Shen smiled and said: "Eat quickly, there are still many errands for you to do after eating."

Luo Yong smiled heartily, bowed his head and ate with a big mouth.

………………

Three days later in the evening.

In the same tent of the Chinese army, Luo Yong had already left, and Xue Wei and Su Ding sat under Shen Yi.

Master Shen looked at Su Ding and asked, "How is the battle going?"

"Go back to Mr. Shen."

He lowered his head and said, "We have been attacking the city for three days, but we have never been able to attack Haizhou City. During these three days, we have injured more than a thousand people."

After a pause, he said, "Fortunately, it wasn't a real battle to the death. Most of the brothers were not seriously injured and could be recovered. Some of the serious injuries were shot by the Qi people with arrows."

Shen Yi nodded silently, and said: "The heat is almost here."

"I will send someone to inform Ling Su that we will feint for another day tomorrow. At dusk, we will immediately break out of the camp, return to the northwest, and head straight for Xuzhou."

Su Ding bowed his head deeply: "The last general obeys orders!"

Xue Wei patted his chest and said: "Duke Shen, the last general is willing to lead the army and lay down the wings of the Qi people!"

Shen Yi shook his head slightly.

"There is no need to divide the ministry now."

He narrowed his eyes and said, "After Qi Ren enters the cage..."

"It's not too late to discuss the ministry."
