Yuejing, Qin Feng, who was working hard to review the recital, sneezed loudly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Who's talking to me like that?" Throwing away the piece in his hand, the eunuch who served on the side immediately handed over a pair of water-soaked towels. After wiping his face a few times, Qin Feng, who looked a little wilted when he saw the folds, immediately became refreshed.

Standing up, he walked to the door of the main hall, and looked in the direction of Qi from afar, "This battle, it should be time to end, right?" ”

He said to himself.

Then, he saw his military secretary Zhang Xiaozheng, the kitten, and Guo Jiuling, the leader of the Eagle's Nest, coming together.

"It seems that there is a real result." Qin Feng smiled.

"I've seen Your Majesty!" The two ministers bowed.

Turning around and sitting back on the big case full of folds, Qin Feng pointed to the chair in front of the big case, "Sit down and talk slowly!" ”

The kitten and Guo Jiuling glanced at each other, and the kitten smiled and said, "Guo Tong takes the lead!" ”

Guo Jiuling nodded, what His Majesty wants to know most now is probably the progress of Qi Chu's battle, and he has just received the latest information about this.

"Your Majesty, the spies of the State of Qi have just sent an urgent report, and the Emperor of the State of Qi finally can't stand the pressure from within the country, and ordered Cao Yun to launch a general attack on Luzhou." Guo Jiuling said.

"Great!" Qin Feng stroked his palms happily and said: "In this way, it will be impossible for Cao Yun to eat the hundreds of thousands of Chu troops in Luzhou in one bite, and there will always be a part of them who will fight their way out of the encirclement." Chu still has some strength left, and for us, that is the best result. ”

From the beginning of the instigation of the Qi and Chu wars, Qin Feng's plan was to make the Chu State suffer a lot of vitality, but he still had to retain a certain ability to counterattack, so as to drag the Qi State to look at the eyes of the Ming Dynasty, the two countries fought to this point, it was already as deep as the sea, if the Qi people did not completely solve the Chu State, or beat the Chu State to the point that they could no longer get up, it would be impossible to put all their forces in the direction of the Ming Dynasty.

"Let's talk about the situation specifically, what kind of charter is the Qi State is now in the country?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Jiang Tao is gone." Guo Jiuling said in a deep voice.

"Jiang Tao!" At first, I was stunned, and then I was a little sad. "It's a talent. At the beginning, I wanted to keep this person, but unfortunately, Jiang Tao and Jiang Shangyan didn't leave any of them. How did he not have it? ”

In order to cover Cheng Wuben's retreat, and also to force the State of Qi to launch a general attack on the Chu army in advance, Jiang Tao led 10,000 cavalry to attack the east and west, broke through Zhou Jiyun's deployment, and entered the hinterland of the State of Qi. not only dragged Zhou Jiyun's main cavalry, but also forced the four counties of Qi to recruit countless county soldiers to surround and intercept him. As a result of this, the support of these four counties for the Luzhou Qi army came to naught, and because of Jiang Tao's three-light policy, it would be difficult for these four counties to recover their previous strength in the next few years. The war potential of the Qi State was greatly weakened. ”

"Three-light policy?"

"Burn it all, kill it all, rob it all!" Guo Jiuling gently spit out three words. "For the people of the four counties of Qi State, this Jiang Tao is a demon. Your Majesty, this person is just a scholar, but this heart is even more ruthless than ordinary generals. ”

"His enemy, my hero!" Qin Feng muttered, "This person is indeed a rare good general. ”

"Jiang Tao was in Shangqiu, surrounded by the Qi general Zhou Jiyun, and finally the whole army was destroyed. Jiang Tao was in battle. Guo Jiuling said.

There was some silence in the hall, Jiang Tao was this person, they were naturally very familiar, when Qin Feng rose, Cheng Wuben, Jiang Tao, and Jiang Shangyan, the three Chu people, all made great contributions.

After a long time, Qin Feng continued: "What about An Ruhai? What's going on now, his momentum is even bigger than Jiang Tao! ”

Guo Jiuling nodded: "According to Your Majesty's intentions, in addition to our Ming spies in the Qi State doing their best to help him, another team of 100 people also joined An Ruhai's army, and An Ruhai also accepted our opinion, no longer burning, killing and looting, but began to wrap up the people of Qi wherever the association passed. But we never expected that in the end, it could cause such a big momentum, and the people of Qi seemed to be unbearable for their court. An Ruhai's spark seemed to fall into the oil pot, and suddenly ignited a sky-high fire. Now even Emperor Qi, who was dismissive of him at first, had to pay attention to An Ruhai, it can be said that the Emperor of Qi reluctantly ordered Cao Yun to launch an attack in advance, which was forced by An Ruhai's momentum. ”

"A few years ago, I had a deep conversation with Cao Hui, and he was still called Shu Hui at that time." Qin Feng tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "He talked to me about the embarrassment of Qi Guo's purpose. He said that the class antagonism within the Qi State is becoming more and more serious, the rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer, the land annexation is becoming more and more intense, and the life of the small people is becoming more and more difficult. Therefore, Emperor Qi had a conclusion that without defeating the Chu State, it would be impossible for him to reform the country with peace of mind. Although the Qi State is strong, it is like cooking oil on fire, and it cannot last long. It is precisely for this reason that Emperor Cao Tiancheng of Qi agreed to return the three counties of Yiyang, Wuling, and Taoyuan to us in exchange for favorable time and space for the war against Chu, knowing that it would greatly reduce me. He wanted to seduce the Chu people when the Qi State seemed to be still very strong, defeat them in one fell swoop, and then reform the country with the power of a great victory. ”

"He almost made it." The kitten said triumphantly, "But now, he's cocooned himself." ”

"No, no, no!" Qin Feng shook his head, "Emperor Qi will succeed, but this price is much more than he imagined." After this battle, even though the state of Chu retained part of its strength, it could no longer pose a major threat to the state of Qi in the future. Emperor Qi was already free to solve domestic problems. ”

"But now An Ruhai?" The kitten asked hesitantly.

"An Ruhai?" Qin Feng shook his head: "Kitten, do you still remember Mo Luo?" ”

When Mo Luo was rising, Qin Feng had just reorganized his command into the Taiping Army, and his power was weak, and the land he controlled was only one county, and he had not even obtained Shayang County. At that time, Mo Luo could be described as full of meaning, and with a wave of his hand, there were hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn, but what was the final result? In less than a year, the rain and wind blew away, and there was nothing left.

An Ruhai's motive was to relieve the siege of Luzhou, forcing Qi to mobilize a large number of elite troops to encircle and suppress him, so that Min Ruoying of Luzhou was under less pressure when breaking through the siege. His strategy is centered on this, so his limitations are remembered, and the people we sent out are also to assist him in copying everything from Moro. Therefore, he will hit the economy and people's livelihood of Qi State hard, don't look at An Ruhai now It seems that he is very powerful, hundreds of thousands of people are rolling all the way to Chang'an, and the momentum is like the sea, but as soon as the main force of Qi State arrives, it is just a matter of a snap of a finger. Commander Guo, our people, can withdraw. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Guo Jiuling nodded yes.

"An Ruhai's move, although it hit the economy of Qi hard, but for Emperor Qi, it can be regarded as a favor. In the past, Emperor Qi was the most difficult to get started with the landlords in various places, but now it's okay, An Ruhai took these people down for him, and Jiang Tao also killed the heroes of the four counties he passed, and after the war, Emperor Qi could naturally stretch out his hand to these places without resistance and control it in his hands. So, this is a double-edged sword, although it has hit the economy of Qi hard, but it has also cleared the way for Emperor Qi's next reform. ”

"The ministers are stupid, but they didn't think of going up here." Guo Jiuling was stunned, and the kitten was also shining in his eyes.

"Think about our Changyang County!" Qin Feng laughed: "Mo Luo swept away the powerful and rich people in Changyang back then, and then our horse county guarded Changyang County but did a good job without any obstacles, but our strategy was in Zhengyang and other places, but it was greatly hindered, and it was not until after the battle of annihilating the barbarians that we began to set foot on the right track, and every time we reformed, we were killed!" This time An Ruhai, Jiang Tao helped Emperor Qi do this, Emperor Qi was only afraid that he was still very happy in his heart, because he didn't have to raise the butcher knife, which would be of great benefit to his next actions! ”

Guo Jiuling and Kitten both blinked, this kind of imperial mental trick, thinking about the angle of the problem, the two of them couldn't think of this aspect.

"In this way, won't we have to deal with a more powerful Qi country in the future?" The kitten was stunned.

Qin Feng laughed, "So what? Kitten, you think too much, this battle, for us, is still more beneficial than ours, let's talk about the economy of Qi first, suffered by this heavy blow, want to recover, it is not something that can be done in a short period of time, without four or five years, Qi will definitely smile at our Daming. And although the state of Chu was defeated, it still retained considerable strength, let's just say that Min Ruoying, even if he only escaped thirty or forty thousand people, but these thirty or forty thousand people must be the most elite fire phoenix army, with these, the state of Chu still has the confidence, Cheng Wuben retreated from Jinghu and formed a second line of defense, which would form a stalemate with the state of Qi. And thirdly, after the Qi people swallowed the fat of the six eastern counties of the Chu State, it was not easy to hold on, the Chu State had no baggage, and in the future, it would be like a hunting dog, watching on one side, as soon as they had the opportunity, they would definitely rush to the six eastern counties to take a bite, and they had to deal with the Chu people who were determined to recover the six eastern counties, and the Qi people had a headache. ”

"The country of Qi wants to reform and revitalize, and their future will indeed be stronger, but what about us? Is it time to stop? Qin Feng looked at the two ministers with a smile: "This is a race to see who can reach the finish line first." ”
