When Li Anmin was placed under house arrest in the villa, Li Ze once told him that one day, he would be used again, at that time, Li Anmin only regarded Li Ze's words to appease him, after all, he was a big taboo, and his two sons could still be in charge of the army, in fact, he had already surprised him, and he was already quite satisfied, his future was over, but Li Bo and Li Tao were not affected, and for him, there was nothing to complain about.

It wasn't until Li Anguo took Aunt Tao to live in the villa that Wuyi's supervision of him was gradually relaxed, and even all those people were withdrawn until now, and after Li Ze's Wuwei won consecutive battles, he really believed these words a little.

For the current Li Ze, his foundation is unshakable.

But he still didn't expect the day to come so quickly.

"Uncle willing?" Li Ze looked at him with a smile and asked: "Mozhou was trampled by Deng Jingshan when he left, and now the situation is really a mess, and it is an exaggeration to describe it with the four words of waste waiting to be revived." But Mozhou is the next time we attack Pingzhou and play the springboard to Yingzhou and Liaozhou, so we have to have a competent person who can let me trust take over. This person must have rich experience in civil affairs and a deep understanding of military affairs, so that he can resonate with the front-line soldiers and better cooperate. ”

Li Anmin was in a trance, looked at Li Ze, and asked, "Am I someone you can trust?" ”

Li Ze smiled: "Uncle is too worried, the past is gone, no need to mention it." We are a family after all, and the current situation, if I think about it, my uncle can see it clearly, one is prosperous, and one is lost, how can my uncle not contribute to the Li family. ”

"Okay, then I'll go to Mozhou tomorrow." Li Anmin nodded solemnly.

"There's no rush at this time!" Li Ze shook his head and said, "I have to wait until the New Year." ”

Li Ze said that after the New Year, but Li Anmin immediately understood, now Liu Chenglin is commanding the army to attack Guancheng, he passed at this time, it is obviously inappropriate, and after Guancheng is taken, this year's war will be officially over, and he will go over again, so as to calmly clean up the mess in Mozhou.

"Then I'll go back after the New Year." Li Anmin said: "After I go, your second aunt is in Wuyi, but I want to ask you to take care of it." ”

"The second aunt naturally has to follow the second uncle to Mozhou." Li Ze pursed his lips and smiled, glanced at the Wu family not far away, but saw that the other party's eyes were also looking over, the person who practiced martial arts was deaf and clear-sighted, and his voice was not small on his side, plus the Wu family was worried about the situation of his master, so he must be paying attention to this side all the time.

"Mozhou is chaotic, the second aunt is extraordinary, and she is also a helper of the second uncle, and more importantly, the uncle also needs a person who knows the cold and the hot to take care of, I think the second aunt doesn't like other unrelated people around the uncle, right?" Li Ze made a harmless joke.

Li Anmin really has only one wife like Wu in his life, and he gave birth to two sons, Li Bo and Li Tao, without concubines, and no girls in the room. In the past, Li Ze only thought that this uncle was a dedicated person, but today he saw Wu's bow and arrow kung fu, and heard his father tell him about Wu's origin, and he suddenly realized in his heart.

was teased by his nephew, Li Anmin's old face suddenly couldn't hang up, but he couldn't do it, so he could only bow his head and eat tea to cover up, but Wu's face was slightly red, and he turned his head to talk to Xia He and others, Li Ze asked her husband and wife to go together, and she was naturally satisfied. It was Li Anguo who glared at Li Ze: "It's not big or small." ”

Li Ze smiled slightly, picked up the tea bowl and ate tea.

"Zhaoyi is chaotic, and the heroes are looking at each other, but I am afraid that the core places such as Guanzhong Heluo will change, what do you think about this?" Li Anguo broke the silence and asked in a low voice. After all, it is a warlord who has been entrenched in Chengde for many years, and as soon as Zhaoyi was in chaos, Li Anguo immediately smelled the crisis.

Li Ze shook his head: "As you said, the heroes are eyeing each other, and they all want to get the biggest piece of fat from it, but I was stumped by Zhang Zhongwu, and I was powerless to take care of it." I can only watch as others share the food. ”

"Heluo Zhichao, if you don't have any plans, how can you send Qiao'er and them to Chang'an, Gongsun Changming, how can these fierce generals stay there and not go?" Li Anguo was slightly angry, "It's all your own family here, do you still have to hide it, don't you want to tell the truth?" ”

Li Ze smiled: "Father, don't be angry, I really don't have any thoughts about those places." Mr. Gongsun, Tu Hu and they tried their best to maintain a force in Chang'an, just to protect themselves. When there is chaos in Guanzhong, you can ensure that their lives are safe, that's all. ”

"Really?"

"Yes. You can only eat the rice one bite at a time, you are greedy and chew it without messing around, and it is easy to choke yourself to death. Li Ze said: "If I don't press down the strong dragon Zhang Zhongwu, I don't have the energy to do anything else." ”

"Zhang Zhongwu is now at the end of his rope, so I can't negotiate with him?" Li Anguo suggested: "In this way, you can draw up your forces to deal with the changes in Guanzhong Heluo." ”

"Father, this is the end of the sacrifice." Li Ze shook his head and said: "First, although Zhang Zhongwu's strength has been greatly damaged, he is still strong, negotiating with him at this time is equivalent to putting a sharp knife on his back, where can the child rest assured?" When the time comes, I will have to deal with Zhang Zhongwu on the one hand, and Zhang Zhongwu on the other, this is the way to bring about my own destruction. It is not impossible to negotiate with Zhang Zhongwu, but it must be something that can only be discussed after taking Pingzhou, Yingzhou and other places. Second, the Central Plains, its forces are entangled, more complex than the north, more and more years of operation, I rashly intervene, if you don't do well, you will steal chickens and rice, I want to see the Tao in this clearly, and then make other plans. ”

"What if someone occupies Luoyang and breaks Chang'an?" Li Anguo suddenly put forward a possibility.

Hearing this, Li Anmin's face suddenly changed: "This, this is unlikely, right?" The rule of the imperial court in Heluo is still very stable, and the 200,000 Shence army, even if it doesn't work anymore, there is no problem in holding Heluo Pass. ”

Li Ze admires his Lao Tzu's vision very much, this possibility is not very small, but very big!

"When that time comes, it will be Tang who has lost his deer, and the heroes will chase him." Li Zedao: "The person who gets Heluo Pass first will definitely take the lead, but it is only a first move, this is like a black and white match, the first move may not be able to evolve into a victory and finally lay the victory." Striking late is also a strategy. ”

Li Anguo nodded slowly: "Since you have already had a plan in your heart, I will rest assured, if you continue like this, at the worst, you can also achieve the title of the king of the northern land." If the Li family can come this far, it can be regarded as a glorious ancestor. ”

"Let's see!"

Most of the areas of Wuwei Festival Town are preparing for the New Year, but in Mozhou, Zhuozhou, Youzhou and other places where Wuwei and Lulong's forces are intertwined, there is no New Year's atmosphere, even though the weather is cold, but the shadow of war has always shrouded this area.

Both sides are deploying troops in the area.

The management of the city has become the focus of contention between the two sides.

Liu Chenglin's plan to take Guancheng in one fell swoop and completely cut off the connection between Youzhou Jicheng and Pingzhou and other places was forced to be shelved. Because even if Zhang Zhongwu retreated, he also left a back hand, and Fei Zhong, who stayed in Youzhou Jicheng, attached great importance to Guancheng, before Wang Sili and Shi Zhuang completed the siege of Jicheng, he had already sent a strong army to aid Guancheng, and Deng Jingshan retreated from Pingzhou at the same time, his subordinate Feng Lun also led 5,000 soldiers and horses, and went directly to Guancheng.

The arrival of the two soldiers and horses made the Lu Long army in charge of the city exceed 10,000 people at once, and for such a small county, the presence of more than 10,000 elite troops immediately made him a hard nut to crack.

Jicheng, Guancheng, Pingzhou City, the three cities formed a chain defense, and any one of them would cause reactions from other links on this chain.

Zhuocheng, Wuwei town under the general gathered. Cao Xin, the governor of the left capital, Liu Chenglin, the governor of the right, Shi Zhuang, Wang Sili, and Zhang Jia, who had just become the commander of the Wuwei soldiers and horses and the governor of the three states of Weishuo, gathered here.

"The Lulong people want to have a battle with us on this line!" Cao Xin smiled and said, "Then it will be as he wishes." Ladies and gentlemen, on this line, the most important thing is still to manage the city, so the focus of our attack is still to control the city. ”

"Cao Du, this is a matter that involves the whole body, and it is not easy to fight in charge of the city!" Zhang Jia frowned, feeling a little difficult to start.

"That's true." Cao Xin smiled: "But what about us, we don't necessarily have to lay down Guancheng, Guancheng can exist as a bait." ”

Listening to Cao Xin's words, everyone's eyes lit up.

"The section commander made it very clear in the letter, what is the most important thing about the chain defense of these three places? Are these three cities? Definitely. Cities are dead things, but people are the most important thing. Therefore, our next strategy is to encircle the point and send reinforcements, focusing on destroying Lu Long's living forces. ”

"And if you want to destroy the other party's living force, you have to put Guancheng under great pressure, forcing Jicheng and Pingzhou to come to the rescue. Therefore, we will mobilize the most elite troops to carry out continuous oppression. ”

Everyone nodded silently.

"General Zhang, your next task is to attack Yanzhou, it doesn't matter whether you are at war with them or not, just watch them, you can't let them go to Chiyouzhou." Cao Xindao.

Zhang Jia hugged his fists and said: "Governor Cao, rest assured, Zhang will not let a soldier from Yanzhou come out." ”

Cao Xin nodded, turned his head and looked at Shi Zhuang, Wang Sili, and Liu Chenglin.
