Tian Wu had already fully understood.

The Mo family is good at defending the city, the people of Sishang are fierce, and the Mo family has been here for 20 years, everyone is really like a tiger, Ren Yong is warlike and not afraid of death, and the rules are completely different from other places, it is difficult to implement the original kind of rule, and the people are not convinced.

Once the real Qi State starts a war with the Mo family alone, if it wants to fully occupy Sishang, it is impossible for the Qi State to bear the cost of 100,000 yuan for a decisive battle, and 200,000 or even more for the future guard.

Just one Peiyi and Pengcheng, it is already such as today's Xiongcheng, with the Mo family's skill of defending the city, there are less than 80,000 soldiers, but I am afraid that I dare not think of breaking through these two cities.

If the Qi State and the Mo family go to war, Wei, Yan, Han, Zhao and other countries are afraid that they will all be happy.

The labor division expedition, the Qi country was killed and wounded, and at that time, Wei, Zhao, Han and Han went east, and the Yan people went south, and the Qi country was in danger.

Tian Wu felt that Tian Qing's analogy was very good, Fei Di was a daughter for the Mo family, but the price seemed to be only against Fei Guo's doctor before, and even if he failed, it was just a matter of nails.

And the Pingyin doctor wants to join forces with Wei and Han to join forces in Chengyang, which in the eyes of the Mo family is to stab the heart of the Mo family: dozens of miles away from Chengyang is the Heshui River that connects Surabaya, which is the key to marching along the river to Sishang Peiyi.

Therefore, the Mo family will give up Wucheng and move the main force of the righteous division to Heshui, wanting to take Chengyang.

This is indeed a move to give up Wucheng, the Linzi army will be able to reach the vicinity of Wucheng in a few days, Wucheng is the northern gate of Feiguo, and the Mo family will not attack, which means that the Mo family has lost the initiative in Feiguo. At that time, Chengyang divided his troops again, and there seemed to be no other way than to sign a contract and recognize that Fei Guo's doctor would be in one place.

For the Qi State, this battle can not only get the Fei State, but also surround the Lu State and make the Lu State vassal; It can also put the Wei State and the Mo family in a state of war, and make the Mo family an important force to resist the Wei State's hand reaching out to Sishang.

And if the Qi State can occupy the Fei State, and Chengyang is captured by the Mo family and excludes the Wei State from Sishang, then once the time comes, the Qi State can attack Sishang at any time, as long as it waits for a suitable time...... For example, the civil strife of the Mo family.

As for the current capture of Sishang, the whole Qi country has no such idea at all, including Tian He and Tian Wu, and they don't even dare to think about it.

In the past 20 years, the folk customs, customs, rules, and habits of Sishang, as well as the indoctrination, profit-seeking, and natural power of the Mohists, as well as the terrible will of the people, attacked Sishang...... Unless it is possible with the alliance of various countries, the first thing Qi himself should worry about is not that he can't capture Peiyi and Pengcheng, but that Yan and Jin will stab him in the back.

Tian Wu understood, so he bowed: "You are a virtuous person, otherwise, what I want to do is probably to make the Qi State suffer losses and let the Wei State benefit!" ”

Tian Qing thought to himself: Your hair hasn't grown yet, so you have a lot to learn.

But he said: "Worry about the king, the duty of the minister." I am a Qi person, so naturally I want to seek benefits for Qi. ”

Subsequently, he sent a letter to Dr. Pingyin, preparing to talk about the matter, only letting him patrol between Jishui and Wenshui, if Chengyang had a letter asking for help, he only said that he was approaching, but delayed his action.

If he hears that the Mo family is close to Jishui and Wenshui, it doesn't matter how many people the Mo family has, just form a formation to defend, or retreat into the city, don't fight.

If the Mo family has Chengyang, then they will retreat to Fan or Xue Ling, and if they do not retreat, they will not dare to guard Chengyang without dividing their troops.

…………

The tenth day from the day when the news of the Mo family's attack on Chengyang out of Huling came out; On the sixth day of the news that Tian Qing, the commander of the Linzi Army of Qi State, and Tian Wu, the son of the Gongzi, ordered the Pingyin Doctor not to save Chengyang.

Doctor Pingyin finally received a letter from the commander of the Linzi Army, and now his location is north of Fanyi in Qi State, about the distance between Yanggu County and Taiqian County in later generations, and there is still a hundred miles away from Chengyang.

The 60,000 troops recruited from Pingyin, Fei, Lixia, and Lingqiu were stationed here, but in fact, the Pingyin army had already chosen to stay before Tian Qing's letter arrived two days earlier.

It was not that Doctor Pingyin considered the future interests of Qi and Wei from the perspective of the superiors, but because in just nine days, all kinds of news emerged one after another, and he couldn't make an accurate judgment, and he didn't even know what the Mo family was going to do.

On the fifth day from the day of the Mo family's expedition, the news that the main force of the Mo family's righteous division left Huling and seemed to be besieging Chengyang reached the ears of the Pingyin doctor.

The news is conclusive, not only along the way the Mo family's own propaganda and agitation, but also many heavy copper cannons used for siege, some are pulled by oxen, and it is said that there are several large copper cannons that need to be pulled by ten oxen.

But on the day he got the news that the Mo family might besiege Chengyang, that is, the fifth day from the Mo family's expedition, he got the news again.

It is said that the Mo family's rangers are out in all directions, and they are active in Onoze, Wuyan, Gu, Wenshui and other places, most of them are thousands, and some are hundreds, coming and going like the wind, all of them are equipped with muskets and riding horses.

The rulers of the cities did not dare to fight, so they could only choose to defend behind closed doors, or it was rumored that these rangers were preparing to attack the supply lines of the Pingyin army.

And a day ago in Pinglu, these Mo family rangers showed weakness, inducing Pinglu Zaishuai Township Farmers 3,000 out of the city to pursue, not wanting to be ambushed, the villagers scattered as soon as they rushed away, the Mo Family Rangers actually broke through Pinglu, and evacuated after distributing the grain of the treasury to the people, and asked the local people how to go to Pingyin from here.

As a result, the people in the nearby towns were even more panicked, and they did not dare to go out behind closed doors, and the news of those rangers was even more difficult to know.

At that time, Doctor Pingyin judged that these Mo rangers were likely trying to harass his march and attack supplies, so as to slow down his march and buy time for the Mo family to break through Chengyang.

But on the seventh day from the day of the Mo family's expedition, news came that the main force of the Mo family was advancing along Onoze and did not go to Chengyang, with tens of thousands of people and went straight to Jishui.

However, there was also news from Chengyang that day, saying that tens of thousands of Mo family were about to attack the city, and the copper cannon weighed 10,000 catties, and one cannon was eroded for more than ten miles.

These messages are all contradictory.

But Doctor Pingyin determined that the main force of the Mo Jiayi Division's Western Front was only five divisions, which added up to more than 40,000 people, how could it be possible that there were tens of thousands of fierce attacks on Chengyang on one side, and tens of thousands of people bypassing Dayozawa and going straight to Jishui?

Which is true? Which is false?

The scouts are dispatched, but they often rarely come back, and the people who come back do not know how many people there are in the Mo family, let alone the specific direction of the Mo family's actions.

From the news of the attack on Chengyang along the Heshui, Doctor Pingyin was actually a little confused, and it was said that the main force of the Mo family's righteous division should be gathered in Wucheng now.

After all, the news more than ten days ago said that the people were in an endless stream from Teng to Wucheng, and they were transporting grain and grass, and the seventh division of the Mo family was also building camp camps, obviously waiting for the main force of the righteous division to arrive to besiege Wucheng together and choose a decisive battle in Wucheng.

Until now, it has been determined that the main force of the Mo family is indeed advancing along Heshui, but is it attacking Chengyang? Or did it move to the Jishui Basin? Or is it really divided into troops, while sending reinforcements to hinder the Pingyin doctor from meeting with Chengyang, and attacking Chengyang at the same time?

This has made Dr. Pingyin at a loss, so he can only choose to be cautious, march slower every day, camp early, and send scouts to carefully check when passing through rivers and valleys to prevent fraud.

Today, I finally received a letter from Tian Qing, the commander of the Linzi Army, but Dr. Pingyin was not as optimistic as Tian Qing.

Tian Qing's letter asked him not to contact the Mo family, and let the Mo family attack Chengyang, as long as the matter of Fei Guo was resolved, he would be regarded as a great achievement. Don't support Chengyang, let alone march too fast.

Doctor Pingyin really didn't think about being greedy for merit, and he had been cautious since three days ago, and when the news of Chengyang's siege came, he didn't think this was an opportunity for him to make a contribution.

However, is it true that the Mo family is just dividing troops to block his advance and want to capture Chengyang?

There are more than 60,000 soldiers in his hands, and the main force of the Mo family is 40,000, which seems to be different, but in the eyes of Doctor Pingyin, he is outnumbered and the Mo family is numerous.

If the Mo family really divided their troops to surround Chengyang, and then divided their troops to prevent themselves from approaching Chengyang, then they would not be afraid.

But in case...... The Mo family is not for Chengyang at all?

Now it is only twenty miles away from Fanyi, only a hundred miles away from Chengyang, and there are Xue Ling and other towns behind him. Or do you choose to retreat to Xue Ling and other places now, and get as far away from the Mo family as possible?

On the letter from Tian Qing's side, he asked him to be careful, but he also asked him to make a posture that threatened Chengyang, so that the main force of the Mo family did not dare to withdraw all of them to Wucheng, and at most they could only divide their troops.

In this case, it is necessary to advance to Fan Yi and wait and see. It's too far away, the news is not smooth, in case the main force of the Mo family withdraws from Chengyang, he is too far away, not to mention that he has no credit, if the main force of the Mo family returns to Wucheng and the decisive battle with the Linzi army leads to failure, I am afraid that he will also be asked for the crime of causing the main force of the Mo family to withdraw calmly.

Moreover, in case of failure, there will still be an alliance between Qi and Wei at that time, and there will always be someone to take the blame for the matter of Chengyang.

Who's going to carry it?

Can he take out the letter that Tian Qing gave him, saying that Tian Qing was not allowed to save Chengyang by himself, so he slipped back to Xue Ling? But Tian Qing's letter was not so straightforward, but said that the scheming was too tricky and should not be taken lightly, and as for the real purpose and the fact that the friendly army was in trouble and could not move like a mountain, it was all passed down orally by his cronies, and it was useless to take it out.

It can't be said that if he fails to be held accountable, in order to appease Wei Han's anger, he will be used as a sacrifice.

Advance to Fanyi, then the situation is much easier to say.

If Chengyang is really defeated, it will be said that the Mo family righteous master is hindering, and he can do his best to move forward, which cannot be regarded as his own sin.

And if the main force of the Mo family withdraws to Wucheng, if he can recapture Chengyang, then it will also be a great achievement, and whether to return Wei Han or what, in the future, if he can't get along in the Qi country, he can also escape to Wei Han with today's relationship.

However, what if the Mo family's attack on Chengyang is fake, but they want to find an opportunity to annihilate the 60,000 people in their hands?

When I went out to Fanyi, there was nowhere to run when the time came, and there was no one around to rescue, and there were at least doctors in the surrounding cities who could rescue when I withdrew to Huling.

When you arrive at Fanyi, what if the goal of the Mo family is yourself, run in the direction of Maling, and count on the rescue of the Wei State? But now the Wei Huangcheng, Fanyang and other places west of Maling are planning to besiege Handan, the troops are in Yedi and Handan, and there is the Yellow River to block, in case of being chased to Maling by the Mo family, behind is the Yellow River, the Wei people are powerless to rescue, but they are afraid of dying even worse.

While he was hesitating, several more scout henchmen returned with two shocking news.

"The previous rangers of the Mo family have already found out clearly, and they are stationed in the Yicang built by the merchants before to guard them, and they are scattered between Wen and Ji."

"The volunteer master of the Mo family appeared in Nanjishui yesterday, only forty miles away from our army. The scouts desperately checked and determined that it was the main force of the Mo family, with tens of thousands of people, all of whom had no pot stoves, and only used fried rice and fried noodles for food. ”

In the hands of Doctor Pingyin, Tian Qingzhi's letter, which made it difficult for his allies to move like a mountain, suddenly fell to the ground, and his mouth was so shocked that he couldn't close it, he didn't need to look at the map of the city, the true intention of the Mo family was finally confessed to the world now!

Doctor Pingyin ordered almost in a shouting tone: "Order the whole army to immediately withdraw north to A, Valley!" It is urgent to kill the valley and the doctor, recruit the people, stick to the city, and do not move lightly. ”

"Then urgently order Fei, Lu, and the doctors under the Lixia to gather the people, recruit private soldiers, and go all out to Pingyin! Fast! Fast! ”
