Chapter 176: Borrowing a Knife
"Recently, several groups of refugees have fled the countryside and headed south to Pengcheng." Zhou Qian frowned.
"It's Pengcheng again." Li Yue became agitated.
The twenty-nine counties within the territory were originally willing to obey the control of Heiyun Mountain.
After Chu Pei stationed troops in Pengcheng, the people of Yanzhou were ready to respond to Jiangdong.
"Chu Su went to the front to supervise the king's niche to attack the Xia Pi Kingdom. Two thousand households in the country responded and cooperated with the inside and outside. They captured Xia Pi Prime Minister alive and supported him. Chu Su's momentum became great. Thousands of people responded to Chu Su every day. Chu Su was all good.
In Jiafu Na, there are many people who have surrendered. Five days ago, more than 500 people from Lu County gathered to join forces and surrender to Jiangdong. Chu Pei sent the general Wang Quan, and Li Mai led 3,000 elite troops to respond."
"Chu Pei's 30,000 elite troops were stationed in Pengcheng and cannibalized Yanzhou. This strategy is difficult." Li Yue stared at the map.
Lu County is just east of Jiyin County. After taking Lu County, the most prosperous areas of Yanzhou were exposed to Chu Pei's blade.
Li Yue is now the shepherd of Yanzhou, and he has long regarded Yanzhou as a forbidden concubine in his heart. He fought hard to get such a small thing, and Chu Pei finally got there first.
He wears a pair of trousers with Wang Xie Xunyin, and Heiyunshan is close to Jingxiang Huanwen.
He does not target Qingzhou or Yuzhou, but only focuses on Yanzhou. Those who come are not good.
Zhou Qian worriedly said: "Chen Liu, Jiyin's people are in doubt. If time goes on, more and more people will escape, and the slim chance of survival in our Black Cloud Mountain may disappear."
This is not an alarmist statement. Twelve of the twenty-nine counties rebelled.
If Chu Pei took another step forward and stationed troops in Lu County, wouldn't the entire Yanzhou become his?
At this time, Zhang Shengye also hurriedly came to ask for an audience, "General, please report from Dongjun that Liu Qi, the governor of Yanzhou, had secret contact with Chu Pei's envoy!"
Liu Qi was born in the Liu family of Zhongshan, and was the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan in Han Dynasty. He was inextricably linked to the Sima family.
Liu Kun stayed in Jinyang for nine years, resisting Liu Yuan and Shi Le, and had a very high status in the hearts of Jin people.
Liu Qi surrenders to Jiangdong, and things will change south of the river.
Li Yue didn't expect that the challenge would come so soon after he hadn't warmed up Yanzhou Mu for several days.
Zhou Qian reminded: "Chu Pei has a great reputation and is not comparable to Liang Du or Shi Bin. He has elite soldiers and strong generals who have endured for many years. They should not be underestimated. This time he stationed troops in Pengcheng and cannibalized Yanzhou, which is quite clever."
With today's Heiyun Mountain, it is natural that Chu Xi's 30,000 troops are not afraid, but Jin County is huddled in Pengcheng, so this battle is not easy to fight.
Shi Zun, who had just ascended the throne, did not get along well with him, and Zhang Yu from the southeast was an old enemy.
Liu Guo from Yangcheng in the southwest was a cunning man. When Liang Du's army of 100,000 men came towards Luoyang, but Li Nong took the lead, he took the last step and fled to Yangcheng, causing Li Nong a terrible misfortune.
When Shi Zun raised an army, this man immediately turned against Zhang Jack and took refuge with Shi Zun.
Once Black Cloud Mountain cannot capture Pengcheng for a long time, Zhang Yu and Liu Guo will definitely take action.
Li Yue rubbed his forehead, "I will personally raise the troops to attack Liu Qi!"
"Heiyun Mountain is in ruins and waiting to be renovated. If another war breaks out, the burden will be extremely heavy. Liu Qi's reputation is outstanding and his soldiers and people are attached to him. It will be difficult to win over Dongjun." Zhou Qian did not agree to fight again.
Since this year, the Battle of Liangdu has been followed by the Battle of Chenliu. After capturing Shi Bin alive, he then faced off against Shi Zun. Less than two months after the truce, he was about to attack Dongjun non-stop.
Even if the Black Cloud Army is made of iron, it is inevitable that they will feel tired.
"If Liu Qi and Chu Pei unite, Chen Liu will be attacked from both sides. Zhang Yu is close to the Xie family and is also a member of Chu Pei. He will definitely attack me at that time. If you strike first, you will be strong, and if you strike later, you will suffer disaster. Of all the people on the road, Liu Qi is the weakest.
Get it immediately."
Seeing Li Yue's persistence, Zhou Qian could only sigh softly and leave.
Not to mention the fatigue of the nobles, even Li Yue felt a little exhausted physically and mentally.
The shortcomings of the Central Plains are also revealed. If there is any disturbance around, Black Cloud Mountain must also follow suit.
Walking down Heiyun Mountain, what lies before you is not a broad road, but walking on thin ice. If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.
But which path in this world is not filled with difficulties and dangers?
Who in the North is not walking on thin ice?
The scenery is like Shi Zun, Shi Min, and Li Nong.
"Brother!" A crisp voice from beside him interrupted Li Yue's deep thought, and Yue Ji came again with a bowl of brewed tea.
Li Yue drank it all in one gulp, his mouth full of fragrance, and his spirits were slightly lifted.
In this era, tea was mostly used for medicinal purposes, relieving food, relieving fatigue and refreshing the mind. Yue Ji studied medicine carefully and was skillful, so the tea she brewed was naturally extraordinary.
"Just now, my little sister was serving tea in the back. I accidentally overheard the words spoken in the front hall. I hope that my brother will forgive me." Yue Ji said with her eyes as clear as crescent moons.
"As a brother, I don't have many rules. Just listen to what you hear, but don't publicize it to others to avoid criticism from others."
Yue Ji is different from others. She has been with her all the way and has contributed a lot. Li Yue will not blame her.
"I know my brother won't be offended! My little sister has a plan. I wonder if my brother is willing to listen to it?"
Seeing her strange appearance, Li Yue was half exhausted physically and mentally, "Young master, you are so sneaky, don't you just want to give me advice? Just say what you have to say. Since when did brother stop letting you say it?"
Making tea is just a pretense. She doesn't want to hear it, so naturally she won't hear it.
Yue Ji covered her mouth and smiled, "Between me and my sister, Chu Pei is stationing troops in Pengcheng. The one who should be panicked the most shouldn't be my brother."
Li Yue's heart moved, and these words reminded him that he had been beaten and killed every day for the past six months, and the first thing he thought of when encountering something was to use a knife.
The one who should be panicking the most is Shi Zun!
Shi Zun had just ascended the throne and before his buttocks got hot, Yangzhou Governor Wang Bao returned to Jiangdong on his birthday, and then the important towns of Pengcheng and Xiapi fell.
Now that Liu Qi, the governor of Yanzhou, was flirting with Chu Xi again, could Shi Zun not be flustered?
And once Yanzhou fails, Qingzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou will naturally be gone, and the Jin army reaches the Yellow River. Will the Jin people in Hebei still obey the rule of Jie and Zhao honestly?
"go on."
"Brother, you might as well reveal the secret communication between Liu Qi and Chu Pei to Li Sikong and General Shi Min through the Beggar Army. Then Jie Zhao will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it!"
This move of killing someone with a borrowed knife is very clever.
Li Yue was overjoyed, but then he thought of something deeper, "What if Shi obeys his order and I send troops?"
Anyone can kill anyone with a borrowed knife. Shi Zun is not a fool. He will probably fight fire with fire.
Yue Ji raised her eyebrows, "That would be even better. There are two counties of Shanyang and Rencheng between Chenliu and Lu County. We can send troops to occupy three counties in the name of crusade, and then recruit Zhao troops from surrounding counties to support Jin."
The army must respect itself and stop Chu Pei in Huaibei to observe the changes in Hebei!"
"Great kindness!" Li Yue couldn't help but exclaimed.
Although she could also think of some of them, it was by no means as comprehensive as she thought.
Baiyun Mountain seems to be prestigious, but the biggest problem is that its foundation is not strong. Chu Cui, Shi Zun, Yao Yizhong, Pu Hong, etc. can lose once, twice, or even three times, mixed with Baiyun Mountain between the north and the south once.
Neither can afford to lose.
"In the future, if there are any major military events, you can serve as a scribe to listen in and speak alone afterwards."
"Wei!" Yue Ji imitated the man and bowed her hands.
