Since the end of the last war, there has not been much movement between the two sides these days.
After all, the coalition of princes did not gain an advantage in field battles, and after the departure of the fortress army, the number of cavalry in the coalition of princes dropped to the lowest point.
If we go to war under such circumstances, instead of being passively beaten when the time comes, it is better to be a little wretched now. It will not be too late to counterattack after the army has achieved results.
"Your Majesty, King Yan has invited your Majesty to discuss matters!" Wang Meng suddenly arrived at Li Xiang's place and said.
"Do you know what the reason is?" Li Xiang asked with some confusion.
It was already almost night, so it would not be a trivial matter for Liu Bang to call them at this time.
"Maybe something happened to the battle situation on the front line?" Wang Meng said with a frown.
At this time, it could only be due to the war situation.
"In that case, let's take a trip!" Li Xiang waved his hand and said calmly.
…
In the big tent, after all the princes arrived one after another, although Liu Bang could not tell anything on the surface, he still looked like an old gangster, but if you look closely, you might be able to find a trace of worry deep in his eyes.
Liu Bang glanced at Jia Yi and nodded immediately, indicating that he could start talking.
"My lords and generals, today there is a battle report from our army. The grassland forces divided their forces to attack our Dai County. Our army was caught off guard and lost several cities. General Leyi was unable to attack due to lack of troops, so he had to defend the city.
!Now that the situation in Dai County is critical, I hope you will put the overall situation first and send troops to rescue!" Jia Yi said as he handed a battle report to the princes below for viewing.
Hearing this, the princes were also a little surprised. If these grassland forces invaded from other directions, what would be the use of fighting each other to the death here?
"King Yan, I wonder who will lead the troops of those grassland barbarians this time?" Qin Zheng asked in a solemn voice.
After all, Qin Zheng had been neighbors with Liu Bang for several years. How could he not understand Liu Bang's subordinate Le Yi?
At first, even when Zhang Han and Li Xin joined forces, they fell into each other's plan and were defeated. In the end, even Qin Zheng was forced to send his teacher Wei Liao, but he still took
There is nothing the other party can do.
Even Wei Liao once said frankly that even if he faced Le Yi, it would only be a 50-50 draw at best, and there might even be a risk of losing.
If it weren't for Le Yi's hard nut to crack, coupled with the factors of the general environment at the time, how could Qin Zheng have easily given up the remaining half of Youzhou and turned to attack Goguryeo, but in the end he encountered
Got another hard bone.
Therefore, when Qin Zheng heard that Lian Leyi was forced to defend the city, although there was a factor of military strength, he was still a little interested. There were such powerful generals in the grassland. He
There was no news before this!
"The people who led the troops of the grassland barbarians this time are Murong Ke, Shi Le, Aixinjueluo, and Huang Taiji!" Liu Bang slowly spit out the names of these people.
Hearing this, all the princes present frowned. Among the three people sent by the grassland forces to fight this time, they had only heard of Shi Le and Huang Taiji. During the last war, these two people had
appeared.
But the name of the remaining person seems a bit unfamiliar to the princes.
After hearing these three names, Li Xiang secretly sighed in his heart. If these three people join forces, let alone Le Yi's military strength, he will be at a disadvantage. Even if the two sides have equal strength, it will be difficult for Le Yi to take advantage of it.
of cheapness.
Murong Ke, Shi Le, Aixinjueluo, and Huang Taiji are already considered the top talents among the grassland forces. They sent all three of them out at once. It seems that this time the grassland forces are gaining momentum.
You must win it!
"Everyone, this battle is related to the safety of our Central Plains. I wonder if you are willing to send troops to help!" Liu Bang spoke again.
Although on the surface it is a question, asking other princes to send troops to support, but with the righteousness of the Central Plains being in danger, I am afraid that the princes will have to support even if they don't want to.
Not to mention anything else, this Liu Bang likes to do such disgusting things every day!
"King Yan, our army has sent a lot of troops to join the army out of the fortress. If we divide our troops to go to Daijun, then I will not have many soldiers and horses in my hands. This matter should be left to others.
Let the princes do it!" After Li Xiang thought about it, he directly refused to send troops.
There are five forces in the grassland camp, but two of them, Yelu Abaoji and Temujin, have territories bordering Li Xiang's territory. There is conflict between them. If they fight again, they will definitely fight against each other.
The other party is the main target.
If he divides his troops to help Liu Bang, then Li Xiang's situation here cannot be guaranteed. Li Xiang is definitely not a good person. In order to help others, he will even ignore his own safety.
Moreover, the reason Li Xiang came up with was just right, and there was really nothing wrong with it.
Although Yang Jian and Qin Zheng did not say it explicitly, they clearly showed helpless expressions.
After seeing Li Xiang, Yang Jian and Qin Zheng like this, Liu Bang felt angry. But he couldn't show it clearly. After all, he was in trouble now and needed help from others.
It is absolutely not good to annoy other people at this time.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Bang turned his attention to other princes. Li Xiang, Yang Jian and Qin Zheng could find reasons. These princes couldn't refuse!
However, how could these princes agree so easily?
First of all, this Liu Bang is really stingy. He asks others to do things for him without knowing what it means to come up with something. Just like the last time Li Xiang contacted other princes to deal with Temujin together, the two sides had to first
Can we agree on a price with each other?
Secondly, for these princes, on such a large-scale battlefield, the soldiers under their command are the guarantee of their own safety. How can they so easily dedicate some of them to help others and solve other people's troubles!
"Everyone, I have a suggestion, what do you think?" Li Xiang looked at the princes who were gradually getting a little cold, and he could only come out to lead the way. Bizhang, Daijun's affairs cannot be delayed any longer.
"King of Henan, please speak!" Liu Bang immediately made a gesture of invitation, and its meaning was self-evident.
