Mo Wuyi was worrying about himself, when a voice came from outside: "The last general, Wu Xuan, please see the commander-in-chief!"

Hearing the voice, Mo Wuyi stretched his eyebrows, and said joyfully, "Wu Qianhu, come in quickly!" He went towards the door, but Wu Xuan in armor appeared in front of the door, clasped his hands and said with a smile: "Marshal!" ...!"

"Your brother, do you still call him that?" Mo Wuyi grabbed Wu Xuan's arm, "There are no outsiders here, just brothers should match each other." He laughed and said, "Your speed is not slow, have the rear cavalry caught up? ?”

Mo Wuyi and Wu Xuan are both figures in the Liaodong 36 Cavalry. These people can be said to be the direct descendants of Chiliandian's descendant lineage.

Although Mo Wuyi ranks first among the 36 riders in Liaodong, everyone is considered a brother in private on weekdays.

"The mountain road is inherently difficult, and even though the stronghold trap blocked on the mountain road has been broken through, it still lies within. In order for the people behind to pass through smoothly, I have ordered people to clear the obstacles along the way." Wu Xuan walked into the house. , while explaining: "It may take five or six days for the main force of the cavalry to pass through Yanshan Mountain, but it will take several days for food and supplies to catch up. The weather is cold and the road is difficult... Seeing that Mo Wuyi frowned, he hurriedly said, "But I have ordered them to speed up."

Mo Wuyi nodded slightly, and sighed: "It's hard for the soldiers."

"Brother, shall we go straight to Wuping Fucheng next?" Wu Xuan saw the map on the table and walked over, "The Qin army was defeated and defeated, and the cities along the way are probably unguarded. With the strength of our army, we can go all the way Going west, the momentum is like a broken bamboo, and I am afraid that it will take less than ten days and a half months to reach the city of Wuping Mansion."

Mo Wuyi shook his head and said: "You don't know, I have already learned from Tan Ma that Wuping Fucheng has fallen into the hands of Chu Huan!"

"What?" The Liaodong Army and the Qin Army have been in a stalemate in Yanshan. The two sides are fighting to the death, but Wu Xuan didn't know that there was an accident in the Wuping Mansion. He was shocked when he heard about it, "Then Dingwu fell into the hands of Chu Huan?" ?”

Mo Wuyi frowned and said, "Wen Pu led the remnants of the Qin Army to retreat to Hujin. I believe that Dingwu may have fled to Hujin as well."

"This is going to be troublesome." As one of the 36 cavalry, Wu Xuan is naturally clear about the reason why the Liaodong Army sent troops to Hexi. Swapping out Chiliandian, "If Dingwu takes Hujin, we can only go south to Hujin, but...!"

"But what?"

Wu Xuan frowned and said: "But if our army goes south, the supply route will be under the threat of the Northwest Army, in case they cut it from behind...!"

Mo Wuyi sighed: "I'm just embarrassing about this right now. You know in your heart that the hearts of the soldiers have begun to fluctuate. We can only make a quick decision and seize Dingwu as soon as possible. Every day of delay will be more dangerous. At that time, whether it is going west or going south, it is very unfavorable to us. If you go south, as you said, the logistics transportation line is under the threat of the Northwest Army. Once it is cut off, the consequences will be disastrous. Wuping Fucheng, do you think we can quickly deal with the Northwest Army based on our current situation?"

Wu Xuan thought for a while, and then said: "Chu Huan's soldiers and horses were also trained in the flames of the Northwest War. It is said that there are not a few cavalry in them. They will confront each other head-on. With our cavalry combat power, if we want to win a few battles, it will be difficult for us to win a few battles." It's not difficult, but...it's not easy to wipe out their main force in a short period of time."

"It's not easy?" Mo Wuyi sneered: "That's impossible at all. Chu Huan is not Dingwu, he still occupies a large area behind him, and the northwest is his lair, and there is more room for advancement and retreat than us. How can it be compared to Dingwu in the western mountains."

Wu Xuan was stunned, and said: "Brother, do you mean that if we fight over, Chu Huan will retreat?"

"Do you remember what Dian Shuai said about Chu Huan before?" Mo Wuyi looked stern, "At that time, Chu Huan defeated Xiao Huanzhang and Zhu Lingyue successively, and controlled the entire Northwest. Dian Shuai said that Chu Huan not only escaped death, but also did it It is unimaginable for ordinary people. Dian Shuai also said that Chu Huan is not only a wolf in the Northwest, but also a fox. Without the ferocity of a wolf and the cunning of a fox, it is impossible for Chu Huan to gain a foothold in the Northwest, and it is even more impossible for him to kill Xiao Huanzhang and Zhu Lingyue stepped on his feet." With a cold snort, "Such a cunning person, do you think he would easily choose to fight us when he is not sure?"

Wu Xuan frowned and said: "If this is the case, we might as well pretend to march towards Wuping Mansion. If the Northwest Army really withdraws, we will take the opportunity to occupy Wuping Mansion City and use it as the Hexi stronghold to block the Northwest Army's eastward advance. .”

Mo Wuyi shook his head and said: "In the Battle of Yanshan, we suffered serious losses, and we were fully prepared. There are about 6 infantry and cavalry on hand... Chu Huan withdrew his troops just to avoid our sharp edge, and never He will really retreat, and all behind him is his territory, and he can advance and retreat freely. If we really occupy Wuping Fucheng, how many soldiers and horses will we need? As far as I know, there have been serious problems with the city defense of Wuping Fucheng. Now It is the cold winter season, and it is very difficult to repair the city. After we take Wuping Fucheng, it is impossible to strengthen the city defense in a short time." After a pause, he went to a chair next to him and sat down, with a serious expression: "And we took After going down to Wuping Fucheng, it is of course impossible to continue westward to find the decisive battle of the Northwest Army...!" Lowering his voice, "Dian Shuai's safety is important, and the primary goal is of course to go to Hujin to get the head of Dingwu. In this way, the troops will inevitably be divided.”

"If we want to attack Hujin, take down Dingwu's head, and protect our transportation roads in Hexi, we have to divide our troops." Wu Xuan said solemnly.

"Then tell me, how should we divide our troops?" Mo Wuyi said: "Although the strength of Hujin Road is weak, the terrain of Hujin is dangerous, the roads are rough and difficult to navigate, and there are many lakes and waterways in the upper territory. I want to take it in a short time. I'm afraid it will not be easy. On the other side of Wuping Mansion, if there are too many troops and the main force is dragged here, it will be even more difficult to attack Hujin. But if there are too few troops left behind in Wuping Mansion, I can be sure that Chu Huan will definitely Forced to come up, it will even swallow Wuping Fucheng again."

But Wu Xuan also knew that the choice was difficult, and he was in a bad mood: "I can't do left, I can't do right, what should I do? Brother, you also know that the morale of the army is fluctuating now, and some people are still harboring evil intentions. It has been dragged on for several months, if the battle cannot be resolved quickly and the war continues to drag on, not to mention whether there will be changes in the army, I am only worried that the logistics will not be able to keep up."

"Who says no." Mo Wuyi clenched his fists, "Hexi is already empty, and with this season, it is even more difficult to replenish military supplies in Hexi. I have sent people several times Send a letter to Huo Xingda to urge grain. Huo Xingda sent someone to send a letter a few days ago, telling Liaodong that the grain in stock will support our 7 to [-] horses, and it can only last for another two to three months at most. After a month, the food and grass will run out."

Huo Xingda is the magistrate of Jinzhou in Liaodong, and Huo Xingda is also one of the main actors in the Liaodong change. Now Mo Wuyi is in charge of the military at the front, while Huo Xingda is in the rear to organize logistics.

"Three months...!" Wu Xuan frowned, but he also felt that the matter was very difficult, and couldn't help but whispered: "The capital we have accumulated over the years in Liaodong has been destroyed by Xun Ping. If Dianshuai was the host, how could we be in such a predicament." Clenching his fists, he sneered and said, "I can't wait to kill him now."

"It's not difficult to kill him, but what about Dianshuai?" Mo Wuyi also had a gloomy face, "Dianshuai is in his hands, and he and Dingwu are incompatible, so he wants to take advantage of Dianshuai's safety to report to him personally." I only pity the tens of thousands of soldiers in Liaodong, who want to shed blood on the battlefield for the sake of his selfish hatred...!" Speaking of this, he was helpless and unwilling, and shook his head.

Wu Xuan thought for a while, then lowered his voice and said: "Brother, have you sent him a letter about the battle situation at the front, and what did he say?"

"What can he say?" Mo Wuyi said angrily: "I have sent someone to send the battle report, but I haven't received the military order from him yet. However, he and Dingwu are incompatible. According to my guess, where is Dingwu?" , will definitely let us fight, as far as the life and death of our Liaodong soldiers and the retreat, he will definitely not care."

"Brother, if this goes on like this, I'm afraid that Liaodong will be destroyed by him alone." Wu Xuan said solemnly: "Could it be that... are we always at the mercy of him like this? If... If we really catch When we arrive at Dingwu, or take off Dingwu's head, do you think Xun Ping will really return Dianshuai?"

Mo Wuyi frowned and said, "Do you doubt that he won't hand over Dianshuai?"

"It's not doubtful." Wu Xuan said, "I'm just worried. If he doesn't hand over Dian Shuai at that time, what should we do? If he doesn't keep his promise, will we still be controlled by him? For Dian Shuai, we will pay a hundred thousand The army sent troops as soon as they said they would send troops, and even gave up Fuhai Road, and came to fight Fuhai at all costs. In Xun Ping's view, Dianshuai is in his hands, and he will wait if he controls my tens of thousands of troops in Liaodong. Do you think he will give up easily at that time? ?”

"If he really dares to play tricks with us, I'll be the first to kill him." Mo Wuyi clenched his fist and said, "Even if Dian Shuai hurts a hair, I will make Xun Ping's life worse than death."

Wu Xuan sighed: "This is what I'm most worried about. Brother, you said that Xunping was also a great task in the court back then. His Hanwang Party also once suppressed the princelings, and he even took advantage of us not taking precautions. The Dianshuai is in his hands. Such a character is very cunning. Doesn’t such a cunning person know that once the Dianshuai is handed over, his own life will end? That’s why I worry that he may not be able to Keep the promise. It is easy to kill him in a fit of anger, but... the elder brother also said that nothing compares to Dian Shuai's safety. As long as Dian Shuai is in his hands for a day, we... hey, we You can't touch him for a day."

"Of course I understand this truth." Mo Wuyi said: "I secretly sent people to look for the whereabouts of Dian Shuai everywhere in Liaodong, but I still didn't get a trace of clues. Dian Shuai seems to have disappeared from the world...!"

"Disappear?" Wu Xuan was startled, his face changed slightly, and he asked in a low voice: "Brother, tell me...do you think it is possible that Dian Shuai has already...!" But he dared not continue. go down.
