I’m The King Chapter 1386: : The Han flag world (seventy-six.) One stone counts birds
Zhou Yu and the southern frontier army he led were bitten by Xuan Yiwei. Lu Zhihui, who had just been promoted to Changfenghou, was eager to see Zhou Yu as a great stain on his military career. A mere 3,000 southern frontier troops managed to break out of the encirclement of Xuanyiwei in Xianyang City and escaped. On the day of his birth, this incident made him lose face greatly, not to mention, now that the new master is in power, he needs to show his ability with reasonable results.
Xuanyiwei pursued the southern frontier army retreating south at a very fast speed. Compared with the southern frontier army with low morale, their morale was indeed higher, because in Xuanyiwei's view, as the emperor's pro-army It is their duty to hunt down the murderer who killed the emperor.
"General Gou, the spies just reported that Zhou Yu, the traitor, has stopped in Taizhou and is setting up defenses, preparing to fight with our army. Taizhou is only fifty miles away from us. We should take advantage of their foothold If you are not stable, kill them immediately." Lu Zhihui stared at the map and said to Gou Yi beside him.
Gou Yi is now his deputy general. Although he is only in charge of logistics, Lu Zhihui also understands that as Lu Chao's confidant, Gou Yi's role in the Xuanyi Guard is more like a supervisor. Although a little uncomfortable, I understand Lu Chao's approach. He hasn't handed over his nomination certificate yet. The army made it clear. Moreover, this person was also a general who commanded the army. He had fought many more battles than himself. Guguan border army, but extremely rich military experience. Lu Chao sent him to Xuanyiwei, maybe he wanted him to return to the army. The Hangu Pass border army is not suitable, but Xuanyiwei is a good place.
After Lu Chao came to power, Xuanyiwei would definitely not be able to guard Xianyang as before, and would definitely become another field army, if Gouyi was in the army. I also have a channel to communicate with him, and building a good relationship with him will definitely be of great benefit to my future. After having this idea, Lu Zhihui was very polite to Gouyi, and he had to discuss with Gouyi for any military operations.
"Lu Hou, I guess we probably won't win this battle." Gou Yi said with a smile.
Lu Zhihui's face changed slightly, "What does this mean, General Gou. Isn't the order given by the general to us to pursue Zhou Yu and defeat him?"
Gou Yi coughed dryly twice, "Master Lu, in fact, it's not just our team, but another team that went out of Xianyang to deal with Zhou Yu this time, and I'm afraid it has already arrived at Zhou Yu's barracks , whether we fight or not depends on the results of this other team's actions!"
"Don't you believe me, General? Afraid I won't be able to take Zhou Yu down?" Lu Zhihui yelled, but Zhuanshu realized again: "It's not right. Where did the other team come from? If there is such a team, it is impossible for me not to know? Could it be that they still have invisibility?"
Looking at the suspicious Lu Zhihui, Gou Yi laughed and said, "Lu Hou is overthinking. How can the general not believe in Lu Hou's ability? This other team, all of them add up to only a few dozen people .”
"What's going on here?" Lu Zhihui was confused. "Assassination? Is it the Eagle Department or the Black Ice Platform?"
"Neither, the leader of this other team is famous. He and Lu Hou are still acquaintances." Gou Yi smiled.
"Okay, General Gou, don't be a fool. Who is this person? My acquaintance must be a long-term resident of Xianyang, and he is famous. There are not many such people."
"His surname is Meng!" Gou Yi said again.
Lu Zhihui suddenly understood, he stamped his feet and shouted: "It turned out that Meng Yong was waiting for him, the general sent Meng Yong over."
"That's right, the troops under Zhou Yu's command were all former subordinates of General Meng Tian. The manpower was mixed, so that this army basically maintained the original command structure. From top to bottom, it was basically the veteran subordinates of General Meng Tian. , but now, it has become his life-seeking talisman." Gou Yi said with a smile.
"So you asked Meng Hou to talk about surrendering Zhou Yu's subordinates?" Lu Zhihui exclaimed, "It's indeed a clever move. These southern frontier troops were built by old General Meng, and the generals under his command were all single-handedly promoted by him. , Mengyong goes out, how can he be 60% or 70% sure. But if this is the case, why let us Xuanyiwei come here? It’s a long distance, and people eat horses, and it’s not a small amount!"
"Didn't Lu Hou also say just now that Meng Hou is only 60 to 70% sure about going out? What if it doesn't work, after all, Old General Meng has passed away for many years, so how much power is left, that's uncertain. If it doesn't work, we have to do it. This is the first." Gou Yi smiled and said: "But the second is the key point."
"I would like to hear more about it."
"Lu Hou, this time there is a civil turmoil in our Qin Dynasty. Regardless of the previous alliance with us, the Chu people brazenly dispatched a large army to invade the southern part of our Great Qin. Within ten months, they will occupy a large area of our southern Great Qin. Can you bear it?"
"Of course I can't bear it. Chu people take advantage of others' danger, so they should teach them a lesson." Lu Zhihui nodded.
"If Meng Yong succeeds in persuading those subordinates of General Meng to take command of the troops, then we will become friendly with them, and we will divide our troops into two groups and attack Chu State hard A cold light flashed in Gouyi's long and narrow eyes, "Two hundred thousand Chu troops are easy to come, but difficult to go back."
Lu Zhihui was so excited that he almost jumped up. As a veteran general, if everything is as Gou Yi said, then there are too many moving hands and feet. Zhou Yu's troops now have nearly 50,000 troops. There are nearly 30,000 troops in the Xuanyi Guards, and the two sides add up to nearly 100,000 troops. Although it is twice as large as the Chu army's 200,000 troops, firstly, it was unexpected, and secondly, it was unprepared. The Chu people will never be able to please. If you can kill the invading Chu people out of the country, this credit is no less than capturing Zhou Yu. What's more, if you want to capture Zhou Yu, you will inevitably have to fight a lot by yourself. Qin people, even if they win, feel uncomfortable, but attacking Chu people is quite different.
"So, let's just wait here for news from Lord Menghou. If all goes well, we will start again. At that time, Lord Menghou will ask Qu Wan for help in Zhou Yu's name. I think Qu Wan will be overjoyed. Hahaha!" Gou Yi laughed loudly.
"It's really a clever plan!" Lu Zhihui also laughed, but in the middle of the laugh, his back was cold, and General Lu's actions were really unbelievable. As far as careful planning is concerned, killing two birds with one stone is bad. This is killing many birds with one stone. If all goes well, not only will Zhou Yu be captured, but also the crisis in the south will be quelled, and the evil consequences caused by the turmoil in Qin State will be minimized, and the reputation of General Lu in the country will reach a brand new level in an instant. Height, amazing, powerful, extremely powerful!
Taizhou is still more than a hundred miles away from Sanchuan County. The information that Sanchuan County was attacked by the Chu army has been sent to Zhou Yu. Although he is very anxious, he can't move at this time. Yiwei chased the army very fast, and he was only a few dozen miles away. If he didn't solve the trouble behind him, he rushed back to Sanchuan County. Even if he was not killed by Xuanyiwei, he would become the target of the Chu army. At this time, after Qu Wan, he should have been ready for himself.
Zhou Yu, smiling wryly, never imagined that Lu Chao would hunt him down so wholeheartedly, and he didn't even care that the south was being abused by the Chu people, or he was worried that he would flee back to the south and join the Chu people. Staring at the map, Zhou Yu thought hard about how to get rid of Xuanyiwei, so as to solve the crisis in Sanchuan County first. Tan Wei couldn't last long.
Taizhou is the last important military location from here to Sanchuan County. After passing here, there is no room for maneuver. With a dull pain in his head, Zhou Yu stretched out his hands and slowly rubbed his temples. No matter how he went, it was a dead end, or he could send someone to talk to the general of Xuanyiwei.
"General Zhou!" A soft shout came from the door. Zhou Yu turned his head and saw where his lieutenant Wang Ming was standing. He left Xianyang City, but also suffered serious injuries, and now his head is still wrapped in a thick bandage.
"Wang Ming, you are here, come in, just to discuss with me, the current situation is too bad, or we have to divide into two groups, all the way to stay in Taizhou to resist Xuanyiwei~IndoMTL.com~Another us Immediately go back to rescue General Tan. If Sanchuan County cannot be saved, we will have no place to stand when we return to the south, and we will inevitably lose all casualties in the killing of both sides by the Chu army and Xuanyiwei." Zhou Yu said.
Wang Ming at the door did not make a sound, he stood there stiffly, looking at Zhou Yu's expression, it was extremely strange.
"What's wrong with you, Wang Ming? The wound has flared up again? Have you checked with the military doctor?" Looking at Wang Ming's appearance, Zhou Yu thought that the other party's injury had worsened.
Wang Ming lowered his head in shame, "General Zhou, all the generals are waiting for General Zhou in the lobby right now!"
Huh? Zhou Yu's heart trembled slightly. He didn't send the general order to gather everyone, but they gathered together automatically. This is not a good sign for the leading general.
"What happened?" Zhou Yu asked calmly, maybe it wasn't a mutiny, otherwise the one standing here would not be Wang Ming, but a swordsman.
"Someone is here from Xianyang!" Wang Ming's voice was inaudible.
Zhou Yu's heart tightened suddenly. (To be continued.)
