"Princess Chenyang is so good! I am ashamed of myself!"

This was the only thing Xiao Yu said when he left Yujun. It shows how angry he was. But even Zhong Roulan didn't expect Murong Changfeng's ability to be so powerful. Of course, Murong Changfeng did something a little deviant, just like this time

Who would have thought that Murong Changfeng facilitated the deal between Zhuo Dingfeng and Zhuo Tianya. Zhuo Dingfeng returned to Yuzhang, and Zhuo Tianya went to Jiujiang. Zhuo Tianya announced his attachment to the Qingluan Army on the day he arrived in Jiujiang, and Zhuo Dingfeng then offered his sacrifice the next day.

In Yinlu Mausoleum, it was officially announced that the Zhuo family respected Xiao Huli as emperor.

What Xiao Yu was angry about was that the important town of Jiujiang was thought to be in his pocket, but he never expected that Zhong Roulan would intervene. In this way, his plan to go north was completely disrupted. What was even more sad was Zhong Roulan's attitude towards him.

No more support.

"Sanniang, is this why you asked Su Qing for help?" Meng Yan was very calm. When Zhong Roulan asked him for help, she felt that it was a lot of trouble.

"Second brother, do you want to blame me too?" Zhong Roulan had a disappointed face.

Meng Yan shook his head and said: "I also can't understand the behavior of the northern and southern yamen of Zhengbei Mansion. I have been waiting for you to give me an explanation about the north yamen."

"You already knew why it was never mentioned in the letter?" Zhong Roulan suddenly changed her look to a vigilant one.

"Do you still think Su Qing is just a maid? Of course, maybe the information was leaked intentionally by the commander of Zhengbei Mansion Nanya." Meng Yan was still indifferent. He took this kind of thing very lightly now. Since he chose to go his own way, he had to do it

Good preparation for taking on the responsibility.

"Haha, the eldest brother said that I am good at tricks, but actually the second brother is not the same? Tell me, you helped me this time, what do you want me to do?" Zhong Roulan realized that there was something in Meng Yan's words.

"Zhengxi Mansion plans to send troops to Xingzhou. Please give me some support. As long as you send troops to Xizhou, the pressure on Yunmeng will be relieved. But don't worry, I only want Qizhou for Yunmeng. I have no other intentions. Qizhou

, Jiujiang and Xizhou are on the same line, just for peace of mind." Meng Yan directly stated his plan.

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell my brother your plan?" Zhong Roulan looked at Meng Yan with a strange look.

"How long can you hold Jiujiang? It's just a transition. Xizhou is your goal, right?" Meng Yan tilted his head with a confused smile.

Zhong Roulan laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten up her waist. She calmed down for a while and then said: "I thought I was an outsider, but I didn't expect that this time I am in the game. The second brother is good at it, but the eldest brother is too impatient. He

If I want Jiujiang, will I not give it to me? Jiujiang is meaningless to me."

"Okay, you're almost pissing him off, but your methods of doing things are never so sharp. What happened this time?" Meng Yan's only puzzlement was.

"It's really not me. This time I wanted to test the level of my subordinates. Who would have thought that he did a good job, but the pattern was small." Zhong Roulan explained.

"Well, no wonder, okay, I'm leaving. The army has gathered in Zhaoling and is waiting. The Gu family must be eliminated before October. The situation will change drastically in the coming year." Meng Yan said meaningfully.

"What I'm saying is that as long as we stick to the river this year, there will be no problem in preserving half of the river next year. It's just that the two rivers and one Shu are quite an eyesore." Zhong Roulan responded thoughtfully.

Meng Yan stopped answering and looked at Cang Shu Haoyue and Su Qingce who were on the boat. Zhong Roulan looked at Meng Yan's back and thought to herself: "Second brother, have a good trip. I hope it won't be too embarrassing when we meet next time!"

While Meng Yan was on his way back in a hurry, the Military Council of Baoqing City had been deliberation for several days and still had no result. When Meng Yan was not in Zhengxi Mansion, Ye Bohuai was naturally the backbone, and the main conflict in the dispute over the dispatch of troops was Xingzhou.

Everyone agreed that although Xingzhou is where the ancestral hall of the Gu family is located, it is far less important than Yiyang, Liling and Changsha. However, there was great controversy over which place to take first. Zhuo Bailing believed that Liling should be taken first, and then Changsha.

, gradually eroded the Gu family's military strength, and Yu Geng and Jin Qian agreed that they should divide their forces, go all the way north to Yiyang, and then divide their forces in Yiyang. All the way north to Yuezhou to join forces with the Yunmeng Tushan clan, and the other way south to Xingzhou, and then

It is enough to deploy a small number of troops on the front line of Liling to contain them. In this way, Zhuo Bailing and others can maintain stability, while Yu Geng and Jin Qian are taking risks, but their attacks will be very powerful.

"Don't look at me! You have been arguing for so many days and I haven't said anything, which means we have no objection." Ye Bohuai rarely drank, but he also increased his hobby of making tea. The sudden silence in the atmosphere meant that there was no difference.

As a result, all eyes were given to him.

"Shuai Ye, please do a good job. You have been playing with this tea set these days. Now you can take charge of the twenty-one counties in the five states of Zhengxi Prefecture." Zhuo Bailing was really intolerant of Ye Bohuai's behavior.

Reached the limit.

"What's the rush? The Duke will be back tomorrow at most. Just let him decide." Ye Bohuai looked indifferent.

Despite Ye Bohuai's dead appearance, only Zhuo Bailing and Bai Ze's right guard commander Chen Zhiqing dared to say a few words. The other generals did not have the courage. Half of the military merits of Bai Ze's army were on him. If he was willing, he could

Bai Zejun is under Japanese control, but his lazy temperament is also very reassuring.

Everyone in the hall was speechless for a while. After more than half a year of recuperation, everyone's hands were itchy. After all, some people couldn't help it.

"Shuai Ye, why don't you ask the Marquis of Hengshan to speak to you?" Yu Geng asked tentatively.

In the blink of an eye, a cup hit Yu Geng's forehead. No one could react at all. They only heard Ye Bohuai say with a smile: "This is my punishment for you. If the Governor is here, just what you said

You have been lying in the military court for a long time."

Yu Geng ignored the blood pouring from his head and immediately turned pale. What he was afraid of was not the military judge and Meng Yan, but Ye Bohuai's smile. It was so scary. He was Ye Bohuai's subordinate during the Battle of Zhaoling.

The heads of those who laughed and disobeyed the general's orders were instantly cut off. The commander in front of the army had this special power.

"The general will finally be convicted, don't blame Ye Shuai!" Yu Geng was frightened.

"Remember, we have already captured five of the twelve states in Xingtan, and the war in the remaining seven states has nothing to do with Hengyang. I also listened to your argument just now. Your focus is on Yiyang, Liling, Changsha, and Xingzhou.

Among the five places in Yuezhou, where do you place Wuling and Yuanling?" Ye Bohuai rarely spoke normally.

However, this attitude of speaking made everyone extremely uncomfortable. Zhuo Bailing was a little surprised. Seeing the blood on the head of Yu Geng, who claimed to be the number one warrior of Baize, no one else dared to speak. This situation had to be dealt with by him, "Ye

Commander, Yuanling's troops are weak, and Wuling is in the northwest of the twelve states of Xingtan, bordering Lingchao, Hezhou, and Dongchuan. Isn't it inappropriate to attack these two places now?"

"Zhuo Shuai, when did I say that we were going to move these two places? I just ask you, what is Gu's biggest fear now?" Ye Bohuai asked.

Everyone was deep in thought. This was a strange question. Logically speaking, what Gu was most afraid of was Zhengxi Mansion, but Ye Bohuai would never ask such a simple question. After a while, Meng Huan, who was listening, said carefully: "Gu

I am most afraid of losing my family."

After Ye Bohuai heard this, he sat up straight and said with a little joy: "Go on, Mr. Shishi, let me listen to what you have to say, right?"

Ye Bohuai gave Meng Huan the opportunity and confidence, and he became emboldened and said boldly: "The reason why the Gu family is called the Gu family in the world is because they have ruled the twelve states of Xingtan for nearly a thousand years. If it weren't for our entry into everyone

We are all used to being oppressed by them. What Ye Shuai means is to mobilize the remaining strength of the Gu family and bring it to Wuling and Yuanling. The remaining five states will be easy." After speaking, he quickly looked at Ye Bohuai.

Ye Bohuai nodded and sighed happily: "As expected, he is my disciple, Ye Bohuai. He knows everything, but he still lacks consideration. What if he can't be transferred? Have you considered it?"

"Well, this disciple really didn't think it through." Meng Huan knew Ye Bohuai's temper. If he didn't understand it, he just didn't understand it. He was hurting himself by holding on.

"If they can't be mobilized, just give them enough opportunities so that they can convince themselves of the reasons for sending troops." Ye Bohuai said lightly, as if it was very simple.

"May I ask Marshal Ye what he can do?" Zhuo Bailing asked. He still couldn't stand Ye Bohuai's appetizing way of speaking.

"I think it's better to leave this matter to Mingjian Division and Youwei. He can't do anything about it!" Meng Yan's voice came from outside the Military Council.

Everyone's eyes immediately lit up, as if they had seen a life-saving straw. They saw Meng Yanlong walking in at a snail's pace, greeting everyone with a smile, and then walked to Ye Bohuai and said: "The governor has asked Ming Jiansi and the right to come."

Wei is prepared, it is their duty to spread rumors and build momentum."

When Zhuo Bailing saw Meng Yan come back, he was finally relieved. When Meng Yan went to Yu County, he was worried that he would be detained by Xiao Yu, but now that he saw Meng Yan's demeanor, it should be smooth.

"It will be good if the Duke comes back. We really have no other good solution." Zhuo Bailing said respectfully, and he directly ignored Ye Bohuai's contemptuous expression.

"Zhuo Shuai has worked hard, everyone has worked hard. Ye Shuai is right. Directly attacking the five northeastern states will not cause small casualties for us, and it is indeed unnecessary. Although we have broken an arm of the Gu family, their strength cannot be underestimated.

, Wu Ling, Yuan Ling are our baits, Zhuo Shuai is going to work hard for you this time." Meng Yan said and looked at Zhuo Bai Ling.

Zhuo Bailing knew that Meng Yan was about to issue a military order, so he clasped his fists and said: "Please give the order from the Governor, Zhuo Bailing will take the order!"

This is the difference between Zhuo Bailing and Ye Bohuai. Ye Bohuai has always been a bargainer, while Zhuo Bailing always has a good deal no matter whether he is happy or not.

"It is tentatively scheduled to send troops on July 17th. On July 20th, Yu Geng will cooperate with Zhuo Shuai to capture Yuanling. Then General Yu's troops will retreat from Yuanling in disguise and rush to the outside of Yiyang City before July 24th. Zhuo Shuai and I will only

If I can leave 30,000 troops for you to defend Yuanling, you must create the illusion of 100,000 troops for me. Su Qing will cooperate with you. It is best to let the Hezhou direction take the initiative to attack you, and Yiyang's troops will probably attack as well.

, can we hold on until early August?" Meng Yan's condition is really extremely harsh. Even if there are only 30,000 people, he still has to pretend to be 100,000 people. The generals in the army cannot use them. This is not a task. This is

It was used as fishing bait.

Zhuo Bailing quickly calculated in his mind, and then replied: "Grand Governor, if there are no reinforcements within a month at most, I will definitely withdraw from Yuanling!"

"Okay! It's a deal, let's take one month!" Meng Yan didn't care about Zhuo Bailing's bargaining. If the elites from the five northeastern states cannot be mobilized within one month, this plan will be equivalent to bankruptcy.

"Shuai Ye, how about you take a trip to Yiyang?" Faced with Ye Bo, Meng Yan could only speak in a consultative tone.

"In addition to General Yu's Kaiyang camp, transfer Chaoqun to me." Ye Bohuai made the conditions directly.

"Okay, then Yiyang will be left to you. After Yiyang's troops are dispatched, they will immediately occupy Yiyang and block Xingzhou's reinforcements." Meng Yan was not polite, and then after everyone glanced around, he said: "General Jin Qian gives you a task

, it’s not a task. You lead 50,000 people and decide the direction of attack in the five northeastern states. I have only one request. After Gu’s reinforcements are dispatched, we can quickly determine the direction and capture it within two days.”

"The last general takes orders!" Jin Qian's expression was still cold, but he guessed that such a task that was not a task must be for him. This kind of task seemed aimless but was actually the most difficult. The control of timing and the moment

His judgment is enough to affect the entire battle situation, but this is also the responsibility of the partial division, and Jin Qian has no excuse.

"You have made arrangements for our group, what are you going to do, the Governor?" Ye Bohuai asked maliciously.

"I'm going to Jiangcheng," Meng Yan said calmly. This decision can be regarded as frightening everyone. He crossed the Gu family and went directly to Jiangcheng. Not to mention whether he could arrive smoothly, such risky behavior should not occur in Zhengzhou.

On the governor of the Western Empire.

Seeing that everyone was about to object, Meng Yan raised his hand to stop him and said: "The Tushan clan's combat power is very weak. If the Gu clan forces troops out of Yuezhou at all costs, Yunmeng Qizhou may not be able to hold on for even half a month. This is the whole situation."

I have to go to the most important part of the battle in person. What’s more important is that the eldest daughter of the Zhong family is Tu Shancong’s eldest daughter-in-law. She has a high status in the Tushan family. If Zhengbei Prefecture or Zhendong Prefecture take the lead, our Zhengxi Prefecture will be passive.

Yes, I was also invited by the second young master Tushan Yinyuan this time."

"Grand Governor, why don't I make a trip for you, and you can take care of the matters in Yiyang." Ye Bohuai was a little worried.

Meng Yan shook his head and said: "I know you are worried about me, don't worry, I will let the left and right guards accompany me when I travel. I go in person to show respect to Tushan Yinyuan, but it is not convenient for me to show my body."

After finally appeasing everyone, Meng Yan sent everyone out, leaving Ye Bohuai and Zhuo Bailing alone. "Shuai Zhuo, you should know that the Zhuo family has been divided into two factions. Zhuo Dingfeng is the Marquis of Xinzhou and the military governor of Xinzhou."

The identity was attached to the Zhengbei Prefecture; and Zhuo Tianya was attached to the Qingluan Army of the Zhendong Prefecture as the Marquis of Lushan County and the Jiujiang Governor. Before I came back, Zhuo Tianya asked Princess Chenyang to submit it in the name of the head of the Zhuo family.

I hope you will return to the Zhuo family."

Zhuo Bailing immediately fell into trouble. He was the son of the Zhuo family, and he and Zhuo Dingfeng had always been masters and servants. If he said he didn't want to return to the Zhuo family, it would be a lie, but he really didn't bother to return to the Zhuo family. On the one hand, there were blood ties and betrayal.

On one side is glory and fame.

"Fifth Senior Brother, I'm sure it's Senior Brother Fochan." Meng Yan did not force Zhuo Bailing to give an answer immediately, giving him time to think.

"I knew it was him. When the third senior brother killed the Zhengbeifu spies in Hengyang before, he felt that his methods were very familiar. It turned out to be him. Haha, we senior brothers are better than each other. Just wait, second brother

I don’t know where I and the fourth child are holding it in." Ye Bohuai said helplessly. He dared to despise the world, but he did not dare to despise these brothers.

"Forget it, everyone has his own ambitions, let's wait until the future to discuss matters of love." Meng Yan saw Ye Bohuai's mood and said comfortingly.

For a while, the three of them fell into their own thoughts. Ye Bohuai was highly suspicious of the two senior brothers who had not yet appeared. Of course, he was even more frightened by Yang Boqin's actions; Meng Yan was thinking about how to prevent Yunmeng from leaking it.

whereabouts.

Suddenly Zhuo Bailing said: "Grand Governor, could you please refuse it for me?"
