Chapter 884: The young monk traveled thousands of miles from North Subei Road to Weicheng. The heads of several families gathered together, their faces solemn and solemn. A few of them got together because the Black Flag Army men suddenly broke into Subei Road. Half a day had passed, but no result had been reached yet. From a face point of view, the Black Flag Army naturally didn't look good when they came over like this, and the soldiers below were all looking at them, so their prestige was completely ruined. However, if the guy who copied the weapon and showed off the weapon really had a real fight, who knows if this is the Black Flag Army's strategy? The members of the Liu family frowned and shook their heads: "You said you want to fight, but I don't object. After all, it's about our face. If we endure it like this, our military morale will be affected. I just want to say one thing" He glanced at everyone and said: "Don't you think this is Fang Jie's plan?" He said with a worried tone: "Pretending to send people across the river to hunt down some fugitive, forcing us to use knives to kill people, he would have an excuse to attack us in Subei Road. Soldiers! The five southwest roads, Beihui Road, Nanhui Road, Huangyang Road, Yongbei Road, Pingshang Road, and now Nanyan Road, which was flattened by Fang Jie, have been renamed Yunnan Road. How many roads are there every day? Human life case? It is said that the Xiaoqiu School is like Fang Jie's personal barracks and has great power. Would they send such a large group of people across the river for a fugitive? " After saying this, the scene suddenly became quiet. The Zhao family members were slightly angry and said: "Then what do you think we should do? Is it possible that we are so tolerant? A group of soldiers with knives just blatantly entered Jiangsu Beidao. Do you think we are blind?" "No one thinks we are. Blind man." The Liu family members sighed and said, "If Fang Jie really plans to launch an attack on Subei Road, he would like us all to have particularly good eyesight!" The Sun family members hesitated for a while and said, "Actually, This is not unreasonable. Now the imperial troops are chasing Luo Tu to Liuzhou. Jin Shixiong's troops have just crossed the river and are chasing the imperial troops towards Liuzhou. How many troops do we have in Subei Road combined? Can the soldiers here stop the Black Flag Army? Now in Subei Road, there are no people from the imperial court, no people from the Jin family, and no people from Luo Tu. It is a good time for the Black Flag Army to mobilize. " " Why did he come early and late to pursue the fugitives, and he had to come when the three parties gathered in Liuzhou and Subei Road was empty of troops? In my opinion this is really a drunkard's intention and not the wine. , why did Fang Jie launch troops against Jiangsu North Road Sooner or later, the three parties will decide the outcome. No matter who wins, where will they fight next? " He stood up and said, "The southwest is such a big area. The territory is also a land of plenty. When the Sui Dynasty was strong, nearly 40% of the treasury revenue came from the southwest! Fang Jie finally established a foothold in the southwest. Is it easy for others to get involved? The purpose of launching troops in Subei Road is to place the battlefield outside the southwest. "The Zhao family was stunned: "You mean, Fang Jie doesn't want to start a war in his own home, so he will use our Subei Road as a battlefield? No matter who wins among the three parties, he will fight the winner in Subei Road. Even if he loses, it will not destroy his foundation in the southwest! " "Nine times out of ten, this is the case. The person nodded: "So, what I mean is, don't give him this chance!" The people from the Sun family snorted: "Isn't this just a bit ugly? The news is strictly blocked, how many people below can Anyone know? As long as Fang Jie's knights don't cause too much trouble on our territory, we can let them go." "That's right." The Liu family suddenly remembered something: "I heard about Fang Jie. The subordinates are going to Mobi Pavilion. Is it possible that they want to win over the martial arts masters? Jiang Shan¡¯s cultivation is one of the best in our North Jiangsu Province. If he can pull him over, almost no one in the green forest of North Jiangsu Road is willing to fight with Fang. That's right." "Let's nip it in the bud." The Sun family members stood up and said, "I'll go to Mobi Pavilion to see Jiang Shan. After all, we still need him." The other two people stood up and said: "In order to prevent any emergencies, why don't you and I gather our troops together and set up defenses along Luoshui on the west side of Subei Road. Although we don't have many troops in hand, with Luoshui as a barrier, we can defend ourselves. There is still some confidence." "Go back and mobilize the troops!" The three people discussed it for a long time, but they didn't know that they were all wrong. What they didn't know was that the result they came up with caused a big disaster. ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ Xiaosheng Mountain is not a mountain, but a city. Xiaosheng Mountain is one hundred and twenty miles away from Liuzhou, and now it is already occupied by the imperial army.?Residence. Yang Jian led his army to rest for several months after destroying Tonggu Academy. After Luo Tu proclaimed himself emperor in Liuzhou, the imperial troops marched again. In fact, this was not Yang Jian's original intention. If Luo Tu had not proclaimed himself emperor, his troops would have returned to the north now. Yang Jian's general Mosa came back from patrolling the camp and walked into Yang Jian's study: "Master, are you looking for me?" Yang Jian waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down. Another general, Yang Chong, arrived earlier than him. He should have been with him. Yang Jian talked about something and looked a little solemn. "According to my original plan" Yang Jian took a look at the map and said: "After destroying Tonggu Academy, I let the soldiers rest for a few months and tidy up the recovered areas. Then I returned to the north and fought with Puhu joined forces to capture Jin Shixiong in one fell swoop. As long as he destroyed Jin Shixiong first, Luo Tu and Jin Shiduo would have no reinforcements, and then they would have a decisive battle with them. However, Luo Tu actually had the courage to proclaim himself emperor in Liuzhou. That prompted me to change my original plan. I thought" He paced and said: "There is a tiger guarding the Jiangbei camp with men and horses. Jin Shixiong can't defeat it. Although it will be harder to fight against the tiger, he should be able to do it. Deal with it. After I conquered Liuzhou and captured Luo Tu Jin Shiduo, I would go back and kill Jin Shixiong with him. Who knew Pu Hu would actually leave without saying goodbye? " Yang Zhong's expression changed and he said in a low tone. The Third Master's temper has always been suppressed Although my subordinates have never worked under the Third Master, they have heard a lot about the Third Master's temper. Master, you know it even better, not to mention that you followed the Master now. When you were conquering the world, the Third Master actually didn't want to fight on the battlefield, and he was always somewhat resistant. Later, he even refused to be awarded an official title and simply farmed and raised birds at home In fact, his subordinates were always worried that the Third Master would come one day. Go to the master and say that he doesn't want to do it anymore." He let out a long sigh of relief: "I just didn't expect that the third master would leave without saying goodbye." "Ignore him." Waving his hand: "I know his temper better than you all. Although he usually listens to me, once he has his own mind, no one can change it. Just like when I planned to make him king, he said He won't listen to anything. Let him go back to Chang'an this time After all, I owe him more, so I can't always make him feel unhappy. But" Yang Jian changed his tone: "I'll go back to Chang'an. The overall situation is also good. Wei Mu is too rigid in leading the troops. It has been half a year since Gao Kaitai and Wang Yiqu attacked Chang'an. The reason why they have not been able to defeat Chang'an is not because Wei Mu knows how to use troops, but because the city of Chang'an is too strong. If anything happens to Chang'an after Pohu returns. After all, I won't sit back and ignore it. What I'm most worried about now is that the Jiangbei camp has been destroyed after Puhu left, and now our retreat is blocked by Jin Shixiong." He walked back to the map and pointed to a few locations: " In Liuzhou, the lowest estimate is that Jin Shiduo and Luo Tu's rebels number nearly 500,000, although most of them are ragtag. Jin Shixiong has at least 160,000 to 70,000 troops. The people in the northwest are fierce, and these soldiers are raised by Jin Shixiong as bandits. Now, I still have 13,000 armored troops in my hands. After successive battles, I have lost nearly 2,000. Although most of them sank into the water when crossing the river, the loss of personnel is so heavy. It was something I didn't expect at the time. ""This battle must be fought quickly, not slowly." Yang Jian said: "One of you is going to Liuzhou to challenge, and the other is going to lead the troops to guard the retreat. Both of them are important. Take your pick." Yang Zhong thought for a while and said, "My subordinates are willing to lead troops to defend the retreat." Mosa nodded: "That should be the case. Second Brother Yang has considered this. He has always been cautious in leading troops and is more than capable of defending the city, but I am more suitable for attacking the city. " "Well! Yang Jian waved his big hand: "We will start our troops early tomorrow morning, Mosa. I will give you 6,000 armored troops and 50,000 horses to lead the charge." Yang Chong, I will give you 3,000 armored troops and 50,000 horses to guard my retreat. I will bring my remaining troops into the central army and conquer Liuzhou within ten days! " "Here! "The two people stood up and clasped their fists in response. At this moment, Yang Jian's expression suddenly changed. He turned around and looked outside the door. At some point, a young monk in white clothes had already entered the courtyard. The door None of the guards outside seemed to have seen him, and he walked in slowly and blatantly. The expressions of Mosa and Yang Zhong changed, and anger flashed in their eyes, but they didn't wait for them to go out. Yang Jian waved his hand to stop him: "Let this person come in, I want to see how the people of the Buddha Sect are so bold! " " See His Majesty the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty! " Da ZiZhi, who was wearing white monk robes, bowed deeply with a respectful attitude. This move made Yang Jian a little surprised. He glanced at his face.??This young monk, who looked to be about twenty years old, had no trace of contempt in his eyes. He could see how powerful this young monk was, and he could also see that there was no hostility in this man's eyes. Having experienced so many things, Yang Jian's eyesight has long been beyond the comparison of ordinary people. "Who are you?" Yang Jian asked. "The young monk traveled thousands of miles from Dalun Temple in the Snowy Mountains of the Western Region Prairie, just to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. The young monk's Buddhist name is Da Zi Zai, and he is the current headmaster of Dalun Temple and the headmaster of the Buddhist sect." " "Da Zi Zai?" Yang Jian's eyes changed: "Are you the first disciple of King Dalun Ming?" Da Zi Zai nodded slightly: "It is Xiao Monk. I didn't expect that such a meager name as Xiao Monk could be known by His Majesty." He snorted: "Da Zi Zai, I don't care why you are here, there are two things you need to understand. First, Sui Dynasty never welcomes people from the Buddhist sect, whether they are headmasters or disciples. Second, they are not welcome. , I am not the emperor of the Sui Dynasty. Your Majesty, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, is now in Chang'an City." "Your Majesty, why do you need to bully me?" Da Zizai smiled and said, "The young monk came out of Dalun Temple and traveled thousands of miles, and there were still several hardships. I came here just to see Your Majesty. Although His Majesty, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty in Chang'an City, is noble, it is not enough for this young monk to be willing to pay such a big gift. "Awe." Yang Jian's eyes turned sharp: "Are you forcing me to kill you?" "Your Majesty will not kill me." Da Zi raised his head and looked at Yang Jian and said word by word: "The young monk brought someone who is good to your Majesty. Suggestion, even if Your Majesty still wants to kill me, why don't you just listen to what I have to say? Now that the world is in such chaos in the Sui Dynasty, the one who is most distressed is your Majesty. This suggestion is only good for you and the Sui Dynasty, and it has no harm. "Yang Jian was silent for a while and then said one word coldly: "Speak!"
