Hu Jun had just withdrawn from the Emerald City. Si Jun's troops had already arrived at the city gate. Seeing that the city gate was wide open and not a single Hu soldier could be seen on the wall, Qian Xiaoxing stopped on his horse and said strangely: "What did Hu Jun do? Is it possible?" A plan to empty the city? Logically speaking, Luo Tianji doesn¡¯t have this skill.¡± Lu Shengzhong couldn¡¯t help but laugh: ¡°Seventh brother, you think too much and make simple things complicated. I think they just ran away. " "That's it," Qian Xiaoxing smiled sheepishly, but for the sake of safety, he still ordered the scouts to go to the city to investigate. After a while, the scouts came back and reported: "Division commander, chief of staff, no trace of Hu Jun was found in Emerald City. After asking the people in the city, Hu Jun has indeed just retreated." After hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but cursed: "Banana, you are a bastard. "La, Luo Tianji's ability to escape seems to be good. If we are surrounded, we must destroy them." Then Si Jun entered the Emerald City, closed the city gates and set up defenses, Qian Xiaoxing sent out. People went to investigate Hu Jun's movements. In the evening, the scouts came back and reported that Hu Jun had retreated to Manshan City. Although Qian Xiaoxing had guessed the result, he always felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what the problem was. After thinking about it, he immediately ordered the soldiers to go and inform everyone. General, prepare to convene a military meeting. After everyone arrived, Qian Xiaoxing spread out the map and said: "Hu Jun has retreated to Manshan City. What do you think?" Sima Chuchu immediately said: "Manshan City is not far from Shandu. There is only one in the middle. A city away, let¡¯s attack Shandu City!¡± ¡°Do you know that if you save your father from Shandu, don¡¯t you think about the consequences?¡± Qian Xiaoxing couldn¡¯t help but scolded. Sima Chuchu really didn't think too much. After being scolded by Qian Xiaoxing, he could only pouted and said: "Then what are the consequences?" Qian Xiaoxing said helplessly: "If we go to fight Shandu, if Shandu suddenly fights If we don't come down, and Hu's capital city is attacked, Hu's frontier troops will give up their outer defenses and will definitely come back to rescue us. By then we will be besieged by more than 200,000 Hu troops. What do you think we will do? " "I "Sima Chuchu thought for a moment, but had no choice. He lowered his head and said: "I can't think of it." Qian Xiaoxing had no choice but to say: "It stands to reason that we will attack Manshan City next, but if Hu Jun retreats again, we will not be able to do it. We were led step by step to the hinterland of Hu State. Although the danger to Hu Guoshan has increased, the danger to our army has also increased. Therefore, it is difficult for me to decide whether to fight or not. " "I can't fight! Lu Shengzhong immediately objected and said: "Our country has finally got these 60,000 troops. If they are trapped, it will be over. Everything should be stable." Qian Xiaoxing looked at the other generals and nodded in support of Lu Shengzhong's opinion. , had no choice but to say: "But, what should we do next, I am also in a dilemma, I dare not go in, should we stop here?" Everyone started to discuss in a low voice, as long as Hu Guo's more than 200,000 border troops Still, entering the hinterland of the Hu State to attack Shandu City is obviously a very risky behavior. It seems that the fat meat of the Hu State is not easy to eat. Ni Qiu, the chief of staff of the Zongheng Cavalry Regiment, seemed to have thought of something. He stood up and said: "Chief of Staff, since we can't move forward at the moment, we can rely on the power of Shi Guo and Lin Guo. I think it's time to unite. Let's work together." Go and eliminate these Hu troops." Qian Xiaoxing agreed with this suggestion and said: "This is a good idea. Shi Guo has already united with our country. It would be a pity to let such a relationship go. As for Lin Guo, whether he will come or not. , as long as Shi State can attack Hu State, Hu's defense line will completely collapse. Then send people to Shi State to inform King Shi that we can attack Hu State with all our strength." After hearing this, Shi Yeying said: "Then let me go, I will. I haven¡¯t been back for a long time, just leave the Ye Ying Tuan to Chu Chu. ¡°I don¡¯t want to be alone that night?¡± Qian Xiaoxing asked. "That night, my mission will also be handed over to Chu Chu." Shi Yeying said with a smile. "Uh" Qian Xiaoxing was stunned for a moment. Seeing everyone covering their mouths and snickering, Lu Shengzhong immediately said: "Okay, that's it, the meeting is over, the meeting is over!" Sima Chuchu and Shi Yeying walked out together, Sima Chuchu complained softly: "Sister Ying, you Why do you say that in front of so many people?" Shi Yeying asked: "Did I say something wrong? Don't you like Qian Xiaoxing? He has many wives anyway, and one more is not more than yours." "Who said that? I like him, he is a big gangster and a bad guy, and I don¡¯t like him anymore,¡± Sima Chuchu defended. Shi Yeying smiled and said: "Okay, you don't like big gangsters and bad guys, but some people do, and I think Lu Jin likes him too."?, don¡¯t miss your turn, don¡¯t blame me for not reminding you. " "This" Sima Chuchu began to think after hearing this, and Shi Yeying said: "You think about it slowly, I will go back and prepare first. " The next day, Qian Xiaoxing bid farewell to Shi Yeying and asked him to pay attention to safety along the way before returning to the Emerald City. Qian Xiaoxing estimated that it would take at least half a month for Shi Yeying to return to Shi's Yidu and then Shi's troops to attack. , it seems that we can only wait during this period. Two days later, Qian Xiaoxing was inspecting the garrison situation in the city, and Lu Shengzhong walked over quickly and said, "Seventh brother, something serious has happened. " Seeing Lu Shengzhong's serious expression, Qian Xiaoxing asked anxiously: "What happened? " "I just received information that five hundred Hu Jun cavalry crossed the Lanjiang River from nowhere and arrived at Noguchi City. They burned our salt factory and looted many people's property. More than a dozen people were killed. . " "What! Qian Xiaoxing said angrily: "You Luo Tianji, you don't have the ability to fight, but you are good at doing these little tricks!" " Lu Shengzhong said anxiously: "We don't have a single soldier to defend the seven cities in the south of the Yangtze River. These five hundred cavalry are like entering an uninhabited country. I heard from the intelligence that they are going to Liudao City, and they are probably going to destroy our refinery. Iron factory! " Qian Xiaoxing thought that the salt factory he had worked so hard to build was burned down, and the ironworks was about to be destroyed again. He felt extremely distressed. He said angrily: "It's not bad. We must not let them do whatever they want. Send two thousand cavalry immediately. Go back and encircle and suppress everyone, and kill every one of them. " "Well, no one is left to be killed! "Lu Shengzhong was also very angry. After a while, two thousand cavalry from the Sijun Cavalry Brigade rushed out of the Emerald City and headed south In Manshan City, Sima Yiqing and Luo Tianji sat together, discussing things. , Luo Tianji said with admiration: "Teacher, we retreated to Manshan City, and as you expected, the army did not dare to attack again. Sima Yiqing shaved off his beard and replied: "Qian Xiaoxing is not stupid. If he dares to march in with his army, we will have no choice but to fight him to the death. The only ones who take advantage are Shi Guo and Lin Guo." " "Then this time we sent five hundred cavalry to secretly cross the Lanjiang River. What is the real purpose? "Of course Luo Tianji understood that the five hundred cavalry going to Jiangnan would only be harassment at most and would not have much impact on the Si State. Sima Yiqing's actions must have a deeper meaning. Sima Yiqing laughed and said: "This Five hundred cavalrymen, like the sand in Qian Xiaoxing's eyes, will definitely make him extremely uncomfortable. This is the effect I want, so that I can plan the next step. " "The teacher's strategy is one step after another, and the students admire it. So what is the next plan? Luo Tianji asked. Sima Yiqing came to the table, looked at the map and said, "There are roads leading to Lanjiang from everywhere here. Send me 10,000 soldiers to each place." " Luo Tianji looked at the place pointed by Sima Yiqing and saw that the four locations mentioned by Sima Yiqing were in the upper, middle and lower reaches of Lanjiang River. They were hundreds of miles apart. He asked strangely: "Teacher , we have a total of 60,000 soldiers, so scattered, what if Qian Xiaoxing defeats them one by one? Sima Yiqing waved his hand and said: "The purpose of my doing this is to create the illusion that our troops are going to cross the Lanjiang River and go to the south of the Yangtze River to burn, kill and loot. If Qian Xiaoxing wants to defeat them one by one, six of his troops will be killed." Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses must not be able to cover all four places. As long as there is a place for the troops to cross the river, he will not be able to bear it. " "So, Qian Xiaoxing will definitely divide his troops to resist, but the quality of our soldiers is not as good as that of Si Jun. If we really fight, we will also suffer. " Luo Tianji analyzed. Sima Yiqing smiled and said: "I didn't say that I wanted to fight with Si Jun. If Si Jun splits his troops and fights later, our troops will retreat, as long as we can delay Si Jun. " "Then what is the purpose of doing this? "Luo Tianji asked doubtfully. "You will know this later. Let's make arrangements first. "Sima Yiqing gave it a pass. Luo Tianji didn't ask any questions after hearing this, and immediately went back to distribute the troops. He sent 10,000 infantry to each of the four places mentioned by Sima Yiqing. Two days later, Qian Xiaoxing finally After receiving the news, the 500 Hu cavalrymen who were running wild in the seven cities in the south of the Yangtze River had been eliminated by the 2,000 Sijun cavalry dispatched. However, this time the Hu army burned, killed and looted. Many people were persecuted and factories were destroyed. It made Qian Xiaoxing heartbroken. It was really difficult to deal with Hu Jun's destruction and harassment. Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but have a headache. Lanjiang was so long that if Hu Jun wanted to pass hundreds of people, he could just find a place to pass. , it is impossible for the Si Army to send troops to defend across the entire line. Recalling the scene when he used hot air balloons to throw refined bombs to harass Hu Jun outside Qingyu City, Qian Xiaoxing now fully understands why Hu Jun had to make a desperate effort to attack Cangqiong Pass. Harassment tactics really make peopleCrazy. When Qian Xiaoxing was considering whether to station thousands of cavalry in Qingyu City, which is among the seven cities in the south of the Yangtze River, to deter Hu Jun, he saw Lu Shengzhong came over and said, "Seventh brother, there is movement from Hu Jun. I have received it." The latest information is that Hu Jun has 40,000 infantrymen, divided into four teams, heading to the Lanjiang River. ""It's his grandma's fault!" Qian Xiaoxing cursed, "Is Hu Jun addicted to harassment? He sent five soldiers last time. Hundreds of people, tens of thousands have been sent here this time. In what direction are the 40,000 people going? " Lu Shengzhong spread out the map, pointed at four locations and said, "There are ferries and roads in these four locations. I guess they are there? We want to cross the river from these positions. "We must not let Hu Jun cross the river!" Qian Xiaoxing was a little excited and said, "If we let them cross the Lanjiang River, it would take us half a year to catch them once they disperse." It would be troublesome." "We can't let them cross the river." Lu Shengzhong also agreed and asked, "How to stop them?" Qian Xiaoxing thought about it and said, "Since they have 60,000 troops, We have 60,000 troops divided into groups to stop the attack. Hu's army is mostly infantry. We have cavalry. Even if we fight ten thousand against ten thousand, we can defeat Hu's army." Lu Shengzhong thought for a moment and reminded: "Seventh brother, after dividing the troops, Our troops are also scattered and can easily be defeated one by one. Could this be Hu Jun's trick? " "Break each by one?" Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and replied: "Hu Jun can't defeat them one by one. Sixty thousand people, and besides, with Luo Tianji¡¯s level, don¡¯t worry about what kind of tricks he can pull off. " Although Lu Shengzhong was a little worried, it seemed true that Qian Xiaoxing was so confident. It was because he was worrying too much and he replied: "Okay, I will allocate the troops to stop the Hu army." "Well, the 10,000 cavalrymen of the Zongheng Cavalry Regiment will be evenly distributed, and 2,500 will be sent to each route. Go ahead and help the infantry block the attack," Qian Xiaoxing reminded. Lu Shengzhong thought for a moment, and after dividing the troops, the safety of the Emerald City where Qian Xiaoxing was located still had to be ensured first, and said: "This is okay, but the four thousand people of the Dark Knights will stay in the Emerald City." "The Dark Knights also ran away. If you're not happy, just stay in Emerald City, I have no objection to that," Qian Xiaoxing replied. By the time Lu Shengzhong finished allocating the troops, there were still 4,000 Dark Knights, 6,000 Wild Sakura Regiment female soldiers, and 10,000 infantry left in the Emerald City. Then other division troops immediately set off to attack Hu Jun in four directions. ¡°All of this is under the control of Sima Yiqing, but Qian Xiaoxing has no idea
