    The next day, Lu Qi led an army of 80,000 to the north. Four days later, he entered Dingzhou. Lu Qidun stopped advancing. It turned out that Dingxian in Dingzhou was besieged by an army of 100,000 Yan. Yang Ye's 30,000 troops defended it.  Ding County.  The war situation in the north has indeed fallen into crisis. Originally, the dividing line between Zhou and Yan was the Juma River. Now Bazhou, Xiongzhou, Mozhou, Yingzhou, and Cangzhou south of the Juma River have all been captured by the Yan army.  Zhang Yongde has always been in charge of northern defense in Daming Mansion. There are two major military forces guarding the northern front line. One is Dingguo Gong Yang Ye with Dingzhou as the center, and the other is Rong Guogong Fu Qian with Cangzhou as the center. Now Dingguo Gong is guarding the northern front line.  While the Rong Guogong army in Cangzhou retreated to Dezhou, it was not far from Daming Mansion and had a military strength of 100,000.  Not long after Lu Qidun's troops, Yang Ye's subordinates came to see them. They were more than two thousand cavalry. The leader of the army was named Yang Yanzhao, the Marquis of Du Yu, who was Yang Ye's sixth son. Lu Qi met him at the commander's tent, and soon came in from outside.  A young general.  "Yang Yanzhao, the Marquis of Yu, the Cavalry Commander under Duke Dingguo, pays homage to His Royal Highness the King of Yu, the envoy of Xuanfu in the north of Zhenbei." After Yang Yanzhao entered the commander's tent, he knelt down on one knee and bowed respectfully to the army.  "General Yang, please get up. Come and sit down." Lu Qiping said peacefully. He had heard of Yang Yanzhao. Ding Guogong Yang Ye had many sons, the most famous of which was his sixth son Yang Yanzhao.  "Thank you, Your Highness." Yang Yanzhao stood up, bowed respectfully, and sat on the chair beside Lu Qi before leaving.  Lu Qi looked at Yang Yanzhao with a smile. Yang Yanzhao was very young, only in his twenties, even younger than him. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his skin was slightly dark and thick. Yang Yanzhao also looked at Lu Qi and was surprised that Lu Qi was young and ordinary.  It was this figure who was slightly older than him, but he made great military achievements in the west and was even named King of Yu by the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty.  "Yan Zhao, how old are you?" Lu Qi asked with a smile.  "Back to Your Highness, I have twenty-three subordinates." Yang Yanzhao replied respectfully.  Lu Qiyi smiled and said: "You and I are relatives, so you can speak casually. You are the Prince Consort, and I am also the Prince Consort." Yang Yanzhao nodded somewhat cautiously. He was also the son-in-law of the Emperor of Zhou and married the emperor's daughter Jin.  Princess Hua and Princess Jinhua were granted the title of Princess of Zhao after they got married, so the Emperor of Zhou and Duke Ding were related by marriage.  "Yan Zhao, I heard that Fu Qian, who was guarding Cangzhou, retreated to Dezhou." Lu Qi turned to the topic.  Yang Yanzhao nodded and said: "Commander Fu Qian abandoned the defense of Cangzhou and retreated to Dezhou. Cangzhou's military strength and Dingzhou's military strength were originally at each other's horns. Once Cangzhou's military strength was abandoned, Dingzhou became a lonely army and could only occupy the city.  "I heard that Fu Qian's army has 20,000 cavalry and 80,000 infantry. Why can't he defend the city? If he can defend Cangzhou and not destroy the horns, he can naturally control the Yan army's offensive.  Lu Qi asked.  "My subordinates have already sent people to ask for help, but Commander Fu Qian's answer was that there was a lack of military rations and it was not suitable to be trapped by the Yan army, so he retreated to Dezhou." Yang Yanzhao replied.  Lu Qi nodded and asked: "Yanzhao, tell me the truth. Is Fu Qian conserving his strength? Is he a good fighter?"  As you said, Marshal Fu Qian was originally the governor of Kaifeng Palace, but was later sent to guard Cangzhou. He is very conservative in his military use. He will not take the initiative unless he receives an order. " "It turns out that it is.  The inner palace is the capital of Marquis Yu, so Fu Qian is a subordinate of Zhang Yongde," Lu Qidao said.  Yang Yanzhao shook his head and said: "You can't say that. Fu Qian is the Inner Palace Guard who protects His Majesty the Emperor." Lu Qi smiled and said: "The Inner Palace Palace is also under the jurisdiction of the front guard, so he is naturally a subordinate of Zhang Yongde.  " Yang Yanzhao nodded and said, "That's right." Lu Qi nodded and said, "Yanzhao, you are familiar with the geography and warfare in the north. In your opinion, how should we deal with the Yan army?" Yang Yanzhao perked up and looked at Lu Qi.  , said: "My subordinates believe that there are two ways to deal with the Yan Army. One is to make a surprise attack on the rear of the Yan Army and force the Yan Army to return. The other is to gather military forces to counterattack the Yan Army. I believe that the two can complement each other." Lu Qi  He nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. When I go to Dezhou, I will use troops according to your suggestion." Yang Yanzhao was startled and said: "Your Highness is going to Dezhou?" Lu Qi nodded and said: "With Fu  Only with a combined force of potential troops can we be sure to defeat the Yan army. If only I and Duke Dingguo join forces, we will not have an advantage and may even suffer a big loss." Yang Yanzhao hesitated, nodded, and Lu Qi said again: "  I said I would suffer a big loss, not only from the threat from the Yan army, but also from Fu Qian's military strength. Now that Zhao Kuangyin is rebelling in Jianghuai, once I and the Yan army lose both sides, Fu Qian will probably come to pick peaches, and even  Take the opportunity to destroy us." Yang Yanzhao's expression changed slightly, and Lu QiHe smiled and said, "Go to Ding County and inform the Duke of Ding who is guarding the city. Tell him that I will deal with Fu Qian first, and then lead the army to fight against the Yan army." "Your Highness is going to deal with General Fu Qian?" Yang Yanzhao  said in surprise.  Lu Qi raised his eyebrows and nodded, saying: "I am the governor of Zhenbei. If he does not obey the order to mobilize the army, I have the right to remove Fu Qian from his military post." Yang Yanzhao nodded, Lu Qi said again: "Remember, Feixin  You should write: King Yu was angry that Fu Qian had abandoned his defense in Cangzhou, and he had personally led the reinforcements to Dezhou to seize Fu Qian's military power. In addition, after flying the letter, you come back quickly, and I will go to Dezhou with you. I also asked the soldiers who have been to Dezhou to come to my account.  "No!" Yang Yanzhao stood up and responded with military salutes, and then left for Dingxian City. He sent arrows to deliver the message. The Yan army was besieging the city. It was impossible to break up the siege.  Take mobile siege.  After Yang Yanzhao left, two soldiers came to see Lu Qi soon. Lu Qi carefully asked about the situation of the Dezhou garrison and learned that Fu Qian's military force was mainly stationed in Ande County, and 20,000 cavalry troops were stationed in the north of the county.  It was divided into two military camps, one on the left and the other on the right. Most of the infantry were stationed outside the city in the east, west and south. There were 20,000 troops in the city. Lu Qi was very satisfied with the two envoys and soldiers, but he did not forget to understand the military situation during the trip.  It's a scouting ability.  Yang Yanzhao came back half a day later. Lu Qi ordered Yang Yanzhao to lead his 30,000 cavalry troops to go south and take a roundabout way to Beizhou. Beizhou was between Dezhou and Damingfu, and he led 50,000 infantry troops to go straight to Dezhou and pass through the town.  Zhouzhou, Zhaozhou, Jizhou and Dezhou.  Lu Qi's plan was to capture the garrison outside Ande County by surprise. He told Yang Yanzhao that he would attract the attention of the Dezhou army. After the 30,000 cavalry troops arrived in Beizhou, they marched towards Dezhou. When they arrived in Dezhou, they forced troops to force the military camp.  Claiming that the imperial edict had arrived, he asked the military camp general to receive the edict, and then controlled the camp general. Lu Qi handed over to Yang Yanzhao the emperor's imperial edict appointing the Xuanfu envoy and the military order deposing Fu Qian.  Of course Yang Yanzhao understood Lu Qi's plan. This was a strategy to seize the army. If Fu Qian was directly dismissed with military orders, Fu Qian would most likely not surrender his 100,000 troops obediently, and would even rebel and fight Lu Tianfeng. But first  If you use the imperial edict to go directly to the military camp, the general of the military camp will definitely obey it under normal circumstances. This is the preemptive strategy.  Yang Yanzhao was of course willing to help Lu Qi. If nothing else, his father was trapped in Ding County, so he led his army away without hesitation. Lu Qi also broke camp and ran to the southeast.  On the way, Lu Qi sent out ten more cavalry to carry out the military order of the Xuanfu envoy to Dezhou to inform each military camp that he was coming to join forces and prepare each army to counterattack the Yan army. The first purpose was to let Fu Qian's army know about his declaration.  The messenger came, and secondly, it attracted Fu Qian's attention and created a surprise for Yang Yanzhao's sudden arrival.  In Ande County, Rong Guogong Fu Qian, who was in his forties, sat in the side hall and frowned at the military orders of the Xuanfu envoy. He served as the governor of Cangzhou and the military envoy of Henghai, and had guarded Cangzhou for ten years.  , in fact, he had already received an official notification from the court, and knew that he had an immediate boss, Xuan Fushi, and this immediate boss, to his great surprise, turned out to be Lu Tianfeng.  Lu Tianfeng's name was already well known in the Zhou Kingdom. Although Fu Qian concealed the official document that Lu Tianfeng became the governor of Zhenbei, because he was close to Daming Mansion, Lu Tianfeng was named King of Yu by the Zhou Emperor and became the Governor of Guanlong.  , but could not hide it from the soldiers stationed in Texas.  Fu Qian looked at the military order sent by Lu Tianfeng and fell into a difficult decision. If Lu Tianfeng arrived in Texas, he was not sure to fight against him. Some generals had spoken out to dissuade him from abandoning Cangzhou.  Therefore, the military orders sent by Lu Tianfeng will cause some generals to rebel.
