Qiao County.

Shangguan Qingcheng stood on the corner of the military camp and looked into the direction of the official road outside the camp. His pale face as white as snow had no expression. There were troops marching on the official road, with iron armor flowing like dragons and rivers, flags covering the sun, and smoke and dust rolling.

That was Liu Zhijun's part.

Shangguan Qingcheng certainly knew that Liu Zhijun was one of the best generals under Li Maozhen.

If Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Nianci represent the highest level of military generals, then Liu Zhijun is the pinnacle of Li Maozhen's direct generals. This person has been following Li Maozhen for many years in war, and is not only an absolute veteran in terms of qualifications, but also few people in terms of record.

The place where Liu Zhijun was going to attack was Suzhou in the southern part of Wuning.

Capturing Suzhou, controlling the Huaihe River, cutting off the Wu army's food route, and isolating the Wu army's connection with Huainan were the top priority in completing the plan to annihilate the Wu army in Wuning.

Originally, Shangguan Qingcheng should have led the Wolf Tooth Army to attack Suzhou.

Now, she could only watch Liu Zhijun's army walk past with a mighty look in front of the military camp. Although there was no expression on her face, the few trusted generals behind her were gritting their teeth and resentful.

"General, we should have made great contributions to conquering Suzhou and cutting off the Wu army's retreat. Why should we give it to these thieves!"

"Yes, General, I can't figure it out!"

"General, can you talk to King An?"

Faced with the complaints from the generals, Shangguan Qingcheng seemed to have not heard it, without a word.

She just said at the end: "There are always wars. When you want to use you, don't let Your Highness down."

After hearing what she said, the generals shouted louder.

"Where is a war? There is Zhao Nianci on the North Road and Liu Zhijun on the South Road. The frontal attack will only cooperate with the Gunzhou side to carry out a full-scale attack after they succeed. At that time, everyone rushed to the crowd, and we couldn't grab much meat at all!"

"Yes, General, our wolf teeth army has always fought tough battles and made extraordinary achievements!"

"Without a real strong enemy challenge, even if you have military merits, it would be too small and not enough for us to score..."

The generals were talking fiercely, as if they were going to mutiny. However, Shangguan Qingcheng always had a calm face and had no intention of comforting everyone's emotions.

Not long after, several cavalry came from the north and headed straight to the gate of the camp.

"It's Your Highness's Envoy!"

"Is it because there is a new military order that we want to fight?"

When the generals saw the cavalry entering the gate, they couldn't help but have some fantasy.

Shangguan Qingcheng walked down the corner without saying a word and brought the generals to the central army's tent.

Soon, the messenger entered the tent with military orders.

"The King of An has an order: Zhao Nianci defeated Xiaoxian, and Shangguan Qingcheng led the Langya Army. After seeing this order, he rushed to Songzhou immediately and prepared to attack Dangshan..."

Hearing the envoy's words, the generals were immediately excited. When Shangguan Qingcheng took the military order, they laughed and started talking.

"I have said a long time ago that our general is most trusted and relied on by His Highness. How could it be that if we attack such an important war in Wuning, we would not have fought without our wolf teeth army?"

"Is that girl Zhao Nianci defeated Xiaoxian? Haha, I knew she was not good enough! I have to take us to teach her how to fight!"

“…”

......

A few days later, the second vanguard army composed of the Wolf Tooth Army as the core drove from Songzhou to Dangshan.

Last time, Zhao Nianci led Hezhong and others

The army was the vanguard, and originally wanted to station on the spot after conquering Dangshan and Xiaoxian, guarding the bridgehead for the subsequent army to fight Xuzhou. After the troops and supplies were ready, they attacked Xuzhou in general. After Zhao Nianci was defeated, the army that had already dispatched had to retreat again.

This time, Shangguan Qingcheng led the army to fight. In addition to the 30,000 soldiers of the Langya Army, the main force of the previous army had to draw some elite troops to supplement them to the vanguard army. In addition to a part of the Pinglu Army, the Tianping Army and Zhongwu Army were the main force, and the troops were no less than 200,000.

Xue Wei of Tianping Army was a veteran who followed the Pinglu Army to fight. After several battles, the Tianping Army was naturally elite. In contrast, the Zhongwu Army was a little worse. When the Shu Army attacked, they retreated for one or two days. However, during the Huang Chao Rebellion, the Zhongwu Army also fought with Li Ye, and its foundation was not bad.

In addition to Xue Wei and Zhou Mingrui, there was another person who followed Shangguan Qingcheng and rode his horse together.

Zhao Nianci.

Her current identity is a small pawn under Shangguan Qingcheng, and she has no military position at all. The role given to her in the army is Shangguan Qingcheng's personal soldiers. Not only will she be driven by Shangguan Qingcheng, but she also has to ensure that Shangguan Qingcheng is comprehensive. Once Shangguan Qingcheng makes any mistakes, she will lose her head first.

This is called a pawn.

Shangguan Qingcheng has always been taciturn and Xue Wei has been familiar with it for a long time, so he was having a casual chat with Zhou Mingrui, and sometimes asked Shangguan Qingcheng if they were right. In this way, Zhao Nianci became an outsider, as if he was indeed regarded as a pawn, and no longer a military genius.

This made Zhao Nianci always have a gloomy face along the way, as ugly as it would be.

It's fine. Because Zhou Mingrui is not close to Li Ye, he always consciously or unintentionally praises the Pinglu army in his words. If he implements the current war, he will inevitably sarcastically sarcastically at Zhao Nianci, who was defeated in Xiao County.

"People at that time often compared the military generals under King Qi's command with the Confucian generals under Gao Pian, saying that the two are in line. The former focuses on frontal fighting, and has extraordinary abilities in both formation battles and city offensive and defense, while the latter focuses on strategy and calculations. It is rumored that the real Confucian generals can plan and win a thousand miles."

Zhou Mingrui laughed and continued, "But in my opinion, the difference between fighting head-on and planning seems to be very obvious, otherwise Dangshan would not be in the hands of Wu Jun at the moment. What do you think Xue Shuai?"

Xue Wei said with a smile: "Who is better than King Qi or King Wu, I don't know who is better than the military strategist or the Confucian sect. I only know that compared with King An's army, neither the Buddhist sect nor the Taoist sect is worth mentioning. Since Confucian, Buddhist and Taoist soldiers are on the sidelines, it is naturally similar."

"That's right." Zhou Mingrui nodded repeatedly, "If not, we wouldn't have gone to attack Dangshan, haha!"

Listening to this insidious insidious expression of military strategists, King Qi was incompetent, and used this to highlight the extraordinary strength of King An's troops, flatter Shangguan Qingcheng and flatter Li Ye, Zhao Nianci wanted to cut his ears.

But she couldn't refute it yet. Who said that Xiaoxian's defeat was caused by herself?

She has no say at all now. Forcibly quibbling will only bring more heart-to-heart ridicule, and she can only endure these humiliations silently.

When the afternoon was temporarily resting, Zhao Nianci couldn't wait to turn his horse's head, wanting to stay away from Shangguan Qingcheng and others, so as not to listen to Xue Wei and Zhou Mingrui's noise - even if it's only a moment of purity.

However, before she could take two steps, she heard a scolding: "Zhao Nianci, where are you going? The general is ready to rest but have you seen him? As a general's front pawn, why don't you go and serve dry food and water?

”

That was a personal soldier from Shangguan Qingcheng.

The team leader had only more than twenty soldiers under his command, but now he was shouting at Zhao Nianci.

Zhao Nianci turned his head and stared at the young team, his eyes full of murderous aura.

But Guzheng was not afraid of her eyes and sneered: "Why, do you want to be the best? If you have the courage, come and try it to see if the military law will tolerate you! If you don't have the courage, hurry up and serve the general, don't stand here an eye-catching!"

Zhao Nianci was so angry that her face turned red and her chest was fluttering violently.

In the end, she chose to serve Shangguan Qingcheng.

She may not be afraid of death, but if she is killed by military law, not to mention that death is not worth it, the military strategists will be faceless if it is spread.

She can only endure humiliation and live a life of silence.

After she turned around, she also heard the sarcastic sarcasm of the young team: "As the leader of the army, he lost 200,000 soldiers and lost 200,000 soldiers and escaped alone, and he wanted to be proud. He was so shameless!"

Zhao Nianci heard these harsh words, and she paused, clenched her fists silently and lowered her head.

Two lines of tears burst out from their eyes.

She reached out to wipe away the tears from her cheeks, gritted her teeth and took dry food and water, and buried her head and walked towards the place where Shangguan Qingcheng rested.

"Sit down."

Shangguan Qingcheng took the dry food handed over by Zhao Nianci, "Tell me about the situation of Dangshan and Wu Jun."

Zhao Nianci did not sit, and stood beside Shangguan Qingcheng like a stone sculpture, and said in a stiff tone: "What's there to say about the defeated general?"

Shangguan Qingcheng twisted out the water bag plug, took two sips of water, and handed the bag to the other party, "When I was in Qiao County, I said that it doesn't matter to me how to hit you in Dangshan, as long as I don't let me clean up the mess for you."

The proud look of Zhao Nianci in the military tent flashed through her mind. Compared with Zhao Nianci who was in a daze in front of her, it was naturally very different, and it was completely different.

Shangguan Qingcheng continued: "Now that the military order is in my mind, I have to accept this mess if I don't win. I have to win this battle even if I can't win. It's not for you, but for the 200,000 dead soldiers, and for the overall situation of the war. Therefore, you must cooperate."

Two hundred thousand soldiers... Zhao Nianci took the water bag, gritted his teeth, looked up at Shangguan Qingcheng, and said word by word: "The Wu army's combat power is not very outstanding, only Sun Ru... This person is a talented person, and few people in the world can compare with him!"

"Oh? Tell me specifically."

......

After a while, Shangguan Qingcheng glanced at Zhao Nianci, "So, do you think the Wu army will fight with Sun Ru's character and talent?"

Zhao Nianci thought for a while and said in a low voice: "The Wu army's infantry is not strong, but the navy is the strongest. The only possibility for him to protect Dangshan is to defend the city and rely on the strong city defense to consume our army's military strength. At the same time, he sent a navy to infiltrate the upper reaches of the Si River and raid our army's food route!"

After hearing this, Shangguan Qingcheng shook his head immediately: "No."

"No?" Zhao Nianci was stunned, "What else can Sun Ru do if she doesn't do this?"

Shangguan Qingcheng said calmly: "If another general went to fight, Sun Ru might have acted like this, but this time I was the one who led the army to Dangshan."

Speaking of the last two words, although Shangguan Qingcheng's tone has not changed, he has a sense of confidence and domineering spirit throughout his life.

"So what if it's you? Will he be afraid of you?" Zhao Nianci sneered.

Shangguan Qingcheng still spoke in a straightforward tone, which shows that she felt that she was expressing a fact that there was no doubt, "He will."
