Zhu Zhu did reach a consensus with Liu Bi's envoy half a month ago, the two sides formed an alliance to attack the Jin army in the north and south, this matter was led by the military division Liu Sigu, after the two sides reached an agreement, Liu Sigu said that Zhu Zhu was moved, Zhu Zhu immediately sent 80,000 troops south, at present, the army is deployed in the area of Ye County, they are waiting for the news that Liu Pi's army crossed the river, and the two sides launched an offensive at the same time.

At present, the garrison situation in Xiangyang has also changed, Pei Xin's 30,000 cavalry has returned to Chang'an, and the 30,000 troops led by Liu Guanghui, the general of the chariot cavalry, are stationed in the eight states of Jingbei, and the combat effectiveness of these 30,000 troops cannot be compared with Pei Xin's 30,000 rapid attack army, which is also Liu Sigu's confidence to recapture Jingbei.

In the palace, Liu Sigu continued to persuade Zhu Jun, he had already seen that Zhu Jun had the intention of retreating, and it was necessary for the Son of Heaven to maintain confidence.

"Your Majesty, the reason why Weichen must insist on recapturing Jingxiang is really because Jingxiang's strategic position is too important, not important to us, but important to Guo Song, the Jin army has captured Bashu, if Jingxiang is captured again, then Guanzhong, Bashu, and Jingxiang will be connected as one, and the next step Guo Song will inevitably take Jingxiang as the foundation, launch an offensive south of the Yangtze River, seize Jiangnan East Road, Jiangnan West Road and Liangzhejiang Road, and finally form a total encirclement of us, as long as we firmly control Jingxiang, Guo Song's southward strategy will not be realized."

Zhu Jun sighed and said: "It is precisely because Jing Xiang is important to Guo Song that he will try his best to keep it, although Pei Xin's speed has returned to Chang'an, but he will not come again?" Once our army reaches Xiangyang, he will come out of Wuguan and attack behind us, and we will be the enemy on our backs. ”

"Your Majesty, if Guo Song really has this strategic intention, he will not put pressure on us on three sides, and he will let us attack, isn't it better? Weichen was sure that Pei Xin's army had already made other arrangements and would not come to Jingxiang again. ”

Liu Sigu's analysis also makes sense, and Zhu Jun is a little tempted again.

At this time, a eunuch reported: "Your Majesty, Liu Xiangguo asks to see!" ”

"Announce him in!"

"Your Majesty has a will, Xuanxiangguo Liu Feng will meet you!" One of the guards shouted.

Not long after, Liu Feng, who was wearing a purple robe, hurriedly walked in, and he bowed down to give a salute, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Jun nodded slightly and asked, "Liu Xiangguo is here to attack Jingxiang?" ”

"Exactly, Wechen thought about it all night last night, Wechen believes that our financial resources do not allow us to start a war on multiple fronts at the same time, we should avoid this happening, Wechen's attitude is very clear, we should withdraw our troops from Ruzhou immediately."

Liu Sigu suddenly stretched his face, he really despised this black fat man who didn't learn and didn't know anything, he didn't understand anything, he didn't understand bullshit! Talking to him about military affairs, isn't it playing the piano to the cow?

"Liu Xiangguo, I have made it clear to Your Majesty the importance of Jing Xiang, I remember that I also told you yesterday, please don't mislead Your Majesty again."

"The military advisor is surprised by this, as the prime minister, of course, I have to reason to make a statement, I want to be responsible for His Majesty's social society, and I want to be responsible for the imperial court, is my opposition to misleading, and the military adviser is not misleading if he makes a bet on the social system?"

Liu Sigu was a little surprised, this black fat man usually can't speak clearly, but now he can actually seize his loopholes to refute, there is a master behind him!

Liu Sigu didn't dare to despise it, he cheered up and said: "The reason why I said that Guo Song and Li Na will not really attack is because they don't have any preparations for war at all, they just put on a show to scare us and put pressure on us, as long as our army quickly moves south and quickly captures the states of Jingxiang, the other party can only defend the lonely city of Xiangyang, we only need to leave 30,000 troops to confront in Xiangyang, and the 50,000 troops will quickly withdraw, and then deal with the enemy's three-sided threat. ”

"I was thinking yesterday, is the military advisor too wishful thinking, now it seems that it is really based on imagination to deploy troops to fight, although I don't understand military affairs, but I know that knowing oneself and knowing the other can be invincible, may I ask the military advisor, since Jingxiang is so important to Guo Song, will he let us take it away? We have been deploying troops in Ruzhou for seven days, didn't Chang'an's reinforcements go south? Does the military advisor know the situation inside Wuguan? Is there not a single soldier there, or are there tens of thousands of reinforcements waiting for us to go south? ”

Liu Sigu just wanted to refute, but Zhu Jun waved his hand, "Let Xiangguo finish speaking!" ”

Liu Sigu had to endure and looked at Liu Feng coldly.

Liu Feng continued: "Xiangguo said that the Jin army has no logistics to deploy a large army on the north side of the Yellow River, which is even more ridiculous, the north bank of the Yellow River has always been the top priority of the Jin army's defense, how can there be no material reserves, the military division also said last year that Liyang County must have hoarded a large amount of grain, grass and weapons, and the Jin army will attack us at any time, so that our defense should not be taken lightly, and then said that the other party has no preparations, isn't this a contradiction?" ”

Of course, Liu Feng didn't have the ability to say these words, these words were taught to him by Yang Mi, and Yang Mi learned these from the letter that Jiang Min handed to him, which was actually Guo Song's own letter, in which he taught Yang Mi how to reason with Liu Feng.

This is actually Guo Song debating with Liu Sigu, Liu Sigu was speechless for a while, he didn't expect that what he said last year would be used by Liu Feng to refute himself.

Liu Feng saw that the other party was dumbfounded, he was very proud in his heart, and continued: "Li Na is also a wolf with ambition, he has long wanted to cut meat from us, in the past, he was difficult to support independently, and he didn't dare to act rashly, but now with the support of the Jin army, will he let go of this opportunity?" He will definitely send troops to capture Puzhou and Caozhou, and once we attack him, will the Jin army put military pressure on us? Am I watching Puzhou and Caozhou change their surnames to Qi? ”

Liu Sigu shook his head and said: "You think too much, Guo Song will never put pressure on us for Li Na, he wants us and Li Na to kill each other, and both will lose." ”

"That's right, let Li Na be stronger, our cannibalism will be even worse, once we fight with Li Na, do you think Guo Song will secretly support Li Na's money and food weapons?"

"This .......," Liu Sigu was speechless again.

Liu Feng ignored him anymore, and bowed to Zhu Jun again: "Your Majesty, the minister's opinion is very firm, since the other party is pressuring from all sides, we should withdraw our troops immediately, we can't take risks, it is very likely that Guo Song has dug a big trap, just wait for us to jump!" ”

Zhu Zhu originally had the intention of retreating, but now, he was completely convinced by Liu Feng's words, he nodded and said to Liu Sigu: "Military advisor, I think Xiangguo has a point, I know Guo Song too well, he is extremely cunning, he likes to use all kinds of tactics to weaken us, I also think that Guo Song and Li Na will definitely send troops, and the reinforcements from Wuguan must have arrived early, we don't have the financial resources to fight on multiple fronts, let alone cannibalism with Li Na, so I decided, and the 80,000 army will be withdrawn immediately." ”

Of course, Liu Sigu didn't know that the master behind Liu Feng was Guo Song, the king of Jin, and he couldn't have imagined that he would be defeated by a rude, unlearned pig butcher.

After Zhu Jun finished withdrawing the army, Liu Sigu was suddenly furious, and a breath of evil breath in his chest could not be smoothed, and there was a burst of flowers in front of him, and his throat was sweet, 'Poof! A mouthful of blood erupted from the ground and he fell on his back.

"Strategist! Strategist! Hurry up and announce the imperial doctor! ”

Liu Feng also pretended to shout: "Don't be angry, I'm just a butcher, I haven't read for a few days, and I don't deserve the anger of the military teacher." ”

These few words are not taught by Guo Song [ ], as Liu Feng himself said, he is a butcher, and he is the best at mending knives and digging out his heart.

..........

Zhu Zhu finally ordered the withdrawal of 80,000 troops, completely gave up Jingxiang, learned that Zhu Zhu's army retreated north, and Liu Pi, who was preparing to cross the river to the north, was so angry that he scolded, but he was helpless, with his strength, where was the opponent of the Jin army? He had no choice but to withdraw his troops and return to Gangneung, where he continued to wait and see how the situation would change.

Just as the tension in Jingxiang had subsided, 60,000 cavalry, led by Li Bing and Kang Bao, were rapidly advancing in the direction of Cangzhou, and their destination was Hekou Port.

According to Guo Song's deployment, Kang Bao will lead 30,000 troops to Lingnan and serve as the envoy of Lingnan Jiedu, which is also Guo Song's decision to send the most loyal Kang Bao to Lingnan after repeated consideration, so as to avoid the recurrence of Ma Weijiang's broken leaf tragedy.

Of course, this possibility is not very likely, Guo Song learned the lesson of Ma Weijiang and strengthened the thought control of the middle and low-level generals, most of the middle and low-level generals have gone through the rotation training of Yanwutang, and are generally loyal to the King of Jin, even if Kang Bao wants to support the army and stand on his own, his generals will not agree.

And Li Bing led 30,000 troops to Jiangnan, he had to take the first step, and after controlling Jiangnan, he established a relay camp in Mingzhou to rest and supply Kangbao's army.

The 60,000-strong army marched non-stop, and they passed through Weizhou and entered Cangzhou.......
