I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 259

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

"Mr. Pang, what do you think of the follow-up of the Songzhou battle?"

Back in the tent where the two lived, Fang Jiao made sure that no one around could hear him, so he asked.

Pang Zhigu, who seemed a little drunk after drinking some wine at the banquet just now, lay on the blanket and said: "Although Tuoba Chide has the qualifications of a hero, he doesn't have the ability to make judgments. He obviously didn't know about the praises and failures at the banquet just now." Qingyi Festival Guizhang's marching route, and judging from Tuoba Chide's reaction, the reinforcements must have gone to Dangzhou. He didn't even tell the truth about this kind of thing. A military counselor with the army, doing the same job as me.”

After hearing this, Fang Jiao laughed and said, "Hahaha, so this Lord Qingtang is quite petty?"

Pang Zhigu closed his eyes slightly and said: "Lun Zanpo has prestige, and he uses soldiers like a god. In the Qingtang Dynasty, he was called the 'Military God'. Willing to entrust authority, concealing such important matters, is too petty, not like what the owner said. In terms of tolerance, it is not as good as the second prince Tuoba Ge yesterday."

Fang Jiao said: "Since the army of the Qingtang Dynasty wins less and loses more here, should we launch an offensive normally in Sichuan?"

Pang Zhigu said: "Of course, this is the only chance. Fu Jinchuan almost brought most of the elite soldiers to Songzhou when he left Yizhou. This opportunity is once in a lifetime. As long as we can make some momentum in the hinterland of Sichuan, maybe Qingtang people still have some chances."

Fang Jiao said: "Then it's not like making wedding dresses for them?"

"They? It won't work. The delay of the Qingtang reinforcements may take more than ten days. Looking at the Jin army's camp, with deep ditches and high walls, and rejecting horses and antlers, Fu Jinchuan decided to spend it with the Qingtang people. Well, anyway, the supply of food and grass for the Jin army is not worrying, they are all in the local area, along the big river, the waterway transports food and saves a lot of consumption and labor. He is determined to use up the food and grass of the Qingtang people, and then fight back. Fighting is interesting, but I don't know that Fu Sanlang is so young, and using soldiers should be a fast-paced way, but now he looks like a mountain, and he really shouldn't be underestimated because of his youth."

Fang Jiao patted the table and said, "So, even if the Qingtang people win, it's a miserable victory? Can't you continue to move eastward?"

"It's very difficult for the Qingtang people to win this game. Regardless of their large numbers, if they want to take down the Jin army's fortress, they have to drop a lot of lives to fill in the deep sea. If they can win miserably, it is already The situation that is most beneficial to us. Or the two sides will grind to the end and both sides will lose."

After Pang Zhigu finished speaking, he opened his eyes and sat down, drinking a bowl of crisp tea on the low table next to him.

Fang Jiao thought for a while after listening and said: "The Jin army looks at the current posture, they don't take us seriously at all, and they plan to confront Qingtang for a long time."

"Chengdu has [-] defenders, and there are tens of thousands of troops in the surrounding Zizhou, Lingzhou and other places. It will be difficult for us to take Chengdu. Let's do our best."

Pang Zhigu and Fang Jiao came here to see how the confrontation between Qingtang and the Jin army was going, and to urge Qingtang to advance.

Now around Jiannan Road, whether it is Dajin, Qingtang, or Honglian, it seems that the momentum is not small, but no matter which side is very cautious.

The Qingtang people made their best efforts, almost betting on Dabaigaoguo's fate.

The Red Lotus Army lay dormant on the Sichuan-Chu border, fleeing and fighting, just waiting for the opportunity for the official army to be restrained by the Qingtang people.

As for Dajin, although it seems to be troubled internally and externally, it is in a very passive position.But in fact the situation has slowly been reversed.

Although the red lotus in Sichuan seems to be blooming everywhere, in fact, the active regional bureau is mainly in the eastern part of Sichuan and Shu, at the junction with Chu.

Although there are more than [-] people in all the ministries, if you want to march westward and seize the rich places such as Yizhou and Shuzhou in the core area of ​​​​Central Shu, you have to face the heavy guards of the official army, which is also insufficient.

Although the Jin army is on the defensive on both fronts and seems passive, as long as Songzhou and Yizhou are not lost, the Qingtang people must be the first to lose.

Without the restraint of the Qingtang people, the Red Lotus Army would not be able to last long in the face of the imperial army.

After trying to understand this, Fang Jiao clapped his hands and said: "It seems that we can't go on like this. The people of Qingtang are unreliable, so we have to do it ourselves. After we go back, I will persuade my elder brother to enter Jianzhou Zizhou and Lingzhou immediately to build up momentum first." If it can destabilize the Jin soldiers, maybe the Qingtang people still have some chances. If they can't hold on first, it's not a good thing for us. If Tuoba Chide sees that we have nothing to do, he withdraws by himself, then It's very lively."

Pang Zhigu shook his head and said: "There is no need to worry about this. Tuoba Chide has poured all his power into attacking Xichuan this time. If he returns without success, wouldn't he lose all face? Besides, the last time he was in Shule , but it was Fu Jinchuan who killed his tens of thousands of troops and almost wiped out his army. How could he let go of the opportunity to avenge his hatred this time? Just wait, there will definitely be some battles in this battle. But we can't see the excitement. When we go back, we must hurry up, otherwise I am worried that Qingtang people will lose too badly, and Fu Jinchuan will return to the teacher with the power of a great victory, and it will be difficult for us to manage in Sichuan."

Although there is a common enemy at present, Qingtang and Honglian must have their own schemes, and it is impossible to take advantage of each other's fire.

Fang Jiao and Pang Zhigu were calculating here, and Tuoba Chide and Lun Zanpo Tuoba Awu were also planning how to deal with the current situation.

"It's really my fault. I should listen to the advice of the Prime Minister and let Gui Zhang go out of the country."

It was very rare for Tuoba Chide to immediately admit that he had made a mistake in front of Lun Zanpo and Tuoba Awu.

"The majesty is surprised by this remark. Letting Guizhang go to Dangzhou is also to let the reinforcements arrive faster, so as to reduce the consumption of food and grass for our entire army."

Lun Zanpo, an old fox, naturally wouldn't hold on to such a thing, he was not a direct minister.On the contrary, he is well versed in the way of being wise and protecting himself.

How could he hold on to Maharaja's mistakes and plant a needle in Maharaja's heart for himself.The fault of the emperor is not something that the courtiers can casually point out.

Even now he is ashamed of the current situation and did not follow the correct advice.But the more this time, the less complacent.

Even count on the king.

When the matter is over and the Maharaja is thinking about it, he will have a thorn in his heart.What will happen in the end?No one will know.

But Ye Li Gonglu, who was born in a wealthy family, is an example.

A Wuti who was on the side heard it and hurriedly said: "Yes, Majesty, we didn't expect this matter, Tongrail City has been abandoned, maybe the Jin army will not send people to stop it"

Tuoba Chide raised his brows after hearing such words, the words of comfort from the two did not have any effect, on the contrary they became more and more worried about the current situation.

Seeing this, Lun Zanpo continued: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much, it's just a few more days of work, and we can also build some equipment to attack the camp of the Jin army. Now we can send people to investigate the passageway. Is there a Jin army in the city, and if there is, tell Guizhang to detour to the country."

Tuoba Chide, who was sitting in the main seat, looked better now. "Just as the Prime Minister said. I will immediately send someone to send a letter to Guizhang with a letter falcon. If there is a Jin army stationed in Tonggui City, let him return to the country instead of going to Dangzhou."

When he got out of the Great Buddha House, Lun Zanpo took a look in the direction of the Jin army camp in the distance, but he couldn't see the Jin army camp at a glance.

He turned his head and looked at the Xihai Plateau in the opposite direction.He muttered in a low voice that only he could hear.

"But I don't know if I can have the good luck of last time this time."
