Half an hour ago, some important members of the Helian family came one after another, and there was no movement when they entered the house. Because of this, the servants outside became more and more cautious. Although they did not know that the masters were gathered together.
What happened is not something that servants like them can inquire about.
But they knew that if they made any noise and caused the displeasure of the masters, their lives could be lost at any time.
In the main hall of the house, stoves were lit everywhere, creating a strong contrast with the cold weather outside.
The patriarch Helian is sitting high up, with a serious look on his face. His younger brother Helianlin is sitting on the left, analyzing the situation nonstop. Below are the juniors Heliansong, Helianzhi and others, who look like they are listening carefully.
.
Helianlin started talking, "We, the Helian family, mobilized the whole family and united all the small tribes that obeyed our orders. We got a total of 60,000 warriors, of which nearly 100,000 horses were available. In this way, we can mobilize 30,000 warriors.
Cavalry, 30,000 infantry and cavalry. As long as the soldiers use their tactics and catch the Jizhou Army by surprise, the prospects are promising."
"Okay." After hearing Helianlin's analysis, all the core figures of the family looked excited.
Only the clan leader He Lianjie's face remained as cold as before, "The Jizhou Army cannot be underestimated, let alone underestimate the enemy. This time we are fighting as a whole clan. If we win, everything will be fine. If we lose, it will be an act of annihilation. There is no chance of a mistake."
It’s no wonder that He Lian was so careful. Ever since he led his troops to Jizhou and was captured, when he was released back, he wouldn’t smile at all. Whenever others mentioned the word Jizhou Army,
You can even see his face twitching slightly, it's obvious that he is scared deep down.
Because he was afraid, if possible, He Lianlian did not want to be an enemy of the Jizhou Army. Unfortunately, the other party seemed to have the intention of killing them all. He first killed his nephew Helian Lei on Jizhou Street, causing the matter to spread to others.
Everyone knows. Then he denied the idea of doing business with the Helian family, so that when the Helian family needed any items, they could only buy them from Gongsun Guang and Cheng Zuofu. Those were all items with increased prices.
.
If things go on like this, He Lian will inevitably become weaker and weaker in order to buy what he needs. I am afraid that if this continues, one day, their strength will be so small that they will be squeezed out from the five major families. If so, where will they go?
There is still a way to survive.
It's better to take advantage of the fact that the family's strength is still there and fight for it. As long as they can enter Jizhou, they can rob them at will. They can also use this to negotiate with Ji Wang Tang Ao afterwards. They have taken the initiative.
When the time comes, Tang Ao has no choice but to give in.
When making this decision, He Lian was very entangled. But after he deliberately revealed this idea, he received the support of most people in the clan, especially some of the young people, who thought that
How to make great achievements on the horse, now that there is an opportunity to fight in a big battle, of course everyone is very excited and jumps to sign up.
The attitude of these young disciples made He Lianlian determined and decided to send troops. Just for the sake of safety, he was not prepared to take the old route and start from Baijun County in Jizhou. He had walked there once.
It is easy to defend but difficult to attack there. I heard that the town and county's city defenses have been reinforced over the past year. Not only does it have a moat more than ten meters wide, but the height of the city wall has also reached three feet and nearly ten meters. I even heard that there are artillery on it.
Erect.
With such a defense, I am afraid that many lives will be lost if we want to capture it. Once the attack is blocked, the main force of the Jizhou Army will come for reinforcements. Wouldn't this lead to a confrontation? With Helian's The family may lose more than it wins with its own efforts.
Even if this road was blocked, He Lianlian had other ideas, that is, to change the road or even change the direction to enter Jizhou. This goal fell on Xie Bai, the general of the Northern Black Army.
It is true that Xie Bai is a leader, but he has nothing to do with the Daqian court. Even his position as chief soldier was taken from him when he killed the previous commander-in-chief. Such a person would not have a big picture in his eyes. A person with a noble mind and an inviolable psychological existence can also become a partner.
The envoy spent a lot of effort to find Xie Bai of the Northern Black Army, and after explaining his intention, the two sides hit it off.
As far as Xie Bai is concerned, he has long been interested in Jizhou, but because he only has 10,000 Northern Black troops and limited strength, he honestly pretends to be his grandson. But in fact, he also knows that under the pressure of the situation, he wants to pretend that his grandson is afraid. It's also impossible. The scouts have already reported back, saying that Jizhou has reclaimed a lot of wasteland, and the direction is right here in Heizhou.
In other words, Jizhou began to develop the land of Heizhou without any warning. If it is not stopped, Heizhou will become the land of Jizhou before long, and his northern Heizhou army will have nowhere to hide.
The envoy rushed back excitedly, and the two sides agreed to set off from Heizhou to Meijun in Jidu after the spring of next year. In fact, Meijun is not far from Jijun. As long as the troops are quick, the Jizhou army has not yet responded. It's not impossible to get under Jicheng before coming here.
In order to increase the success rate of the raid, the Helian family will naturally make preparations for a feint attack before the war, and send troops to Bai County. As long as the main force of the Jizhou Army is attracted, there will not be too many troops guarding Jizhou City. , then their opportunity naturally presented itself.
If Di Shang and Lu Ming hadn't tipped off in advance, perhaps He Lianjie's idea might have come true. But now, Tang Ao had been prepared and had sent many spies to basically understand the other party's situation. It became clear to me that if this strategy is used again, it will have no effect.
For Tang Ao, all he had to choose was whether to fight behind closed doors or to take the initiative.
After constant discussions among the staff, they finally chose the former - to close the door and beat the dog.
In this way, the Jizhou Army does not have to travel long distances. They only need to recharge their batteries and wait for the arrival of the enemy at home. However, this approach is not without its shortcomings. For example, Jiangcheng, which was attacked first, is likely to suffer disaster. But Considering the overall situation, it is worth losing one unit in exchange for the final victory.
At that moment, Tang Ao ordered that the people of Jiangcheng begin to relocate in a planned manner to avoid unnecessary losses as much as possible.
...
Between the mountains, a small stream flows through the mountains. A beautiful figure is sitting by the stream, putting her white feet in the water, giving her a unique feeling of happiness.
The eldest princess Tang Qinglan waved her calves from time to time, showing an extremely relaxed look on her face. From childhood to adulthood, in the past thirty years, she has never been as relaxed as she is now, as if all the intrigues and interests are at stake. She no longer has any relationship, as if she suddenly came to another world.
"Cough." There was a light cough not far away. After hearing the sound, the eldest princess quickly retracted her feet and put on her shoes and socks. She checked herself again and found nothing wrong before standing up.
Turn around and go.
Three feet behind him, the burly Li Chuxiang was facing away. Obviously this cough came from his mouth. He should have seen Tang Qinglan playing in the water with her white calves exposed. He
Then he signaled and turned around.
The ancients said that a man's head and a woman's feet cannot be touched casually, especially the latter, which cannot be seen. When Li Chuxiang studied martial arts with his master, he also learned a lot of principles of life. Such things that offended women he
Of course I won't do it.
"Brother Li, you're here." The eldest princess turned around and said in a clear voice, like the oriole chirping in the mountains and fields.
"Well, I heard that Miss Tang was looking for so-and-so, and so-and-so came." Li Chuxiang showed a simple and honest smile. I don't know why, since he rescued the eldest princess in the forest, this person came in front of the Five Hundred Canglang Camp.
The general who never stuttered when speaking in front of a brave man, but as soon as he saw Tang Qinglan, his speech was affected, and he no longer seemed as natural as others.
Speaking of that day, when Tang Qinglan woke up, she found herself on the horse, or in Li Chuxiang's arms to be exact. When she woke up, she instinctively shouted "Deng Tuzi", and then raised her hand and slapped her.
Just called him.
The unsuspecting Li Chuxiang was beaten up, but he was not angry. Instead, he quickly jumped off the horse and apologized like a gentleman, saying, "This girl, I'm really sorry, because there are still pursuers outside.
There are so few of us that we have to leave, but you are in a coma and can't ride a horse, so I decided on my own. Fortunately, the girl is awake now."
After some explanations, Tang Qinglan remembered what happened before. She thought that when she escaped from the city, she was seen by Kong Fu, King Shun's aide, and then they were chased and intercepted, which even turned into a chase. She had no choice but to enter.
In the forest, I met this man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
Thinking that she had been riding on a horse with his support just now, and that she must have had some contact with him without realizing it, she couldn't help but look at Li Chuxiang's body. When she looked carefully, this
I soon discovered that the big man who had been chatting just now was actually blushing a little.
To say that Li Chuxiang had served in the army, killed enemies and Shangguan, and said that he did not change his color despite the collapse of Mount Tai was probably an exaggeration, but it was not far off. But he had very little contact with the girl's family, even though he usually
He would also meet some family members from the Canglang Camp, including some girls who took a fancy to his ability and showed love to him, but he never thought about it that much.
What kind of family do you need if your country is in chaos?
But I don't know why, after seeing Tang Qinglan, my previously unmoved state of mind relaxed. Maybe it was the fragrance of her body that attracted him.
