Yang Xing raised his head and said loudly, "Let him come in." As he spoke, he stood up and went out.

Seeing this, the two gray-headed generals were at a loss, and they didn't know whether to follow along or stay where they were, and before they could be entangled for too long, Yuan Fang had already walked into the study.

As soon as he entered the door, Yuan Fang saw the two guys scratching his ears and cheeks, and asked suspiciously, "Are they?" It looks familiar. ”

Yang Xing pulled Yuan Fang to sit down and introduced: "They are Tang Jian's subordinate generals, one is named Li Rui and the other is called Yu Zhan, who are here to report the emergency military situation. ”

Yuan Fang was stunned: "Urgent military situation? ”

Li Rui and Yu Zhan had seen Yuan Fang before, but because the rank was not enough and the military position was inadequate, they had little contact with Yuan Fang and were not familiar with it. ”

Yuan Fang waved his hand and said, "You're welcome." Then he asked Yang Xing: "What's the matter?" ”

Yang Xing sighed, handed the fold to Yuan Fang and said, "See for yourself." ”

Yuan Fang took it and looked at it carefully, his face was a little ugly, and he frowned and said, "The Ningyuan Empire and the Yuanhe Empire have sent troops?" Why don't we have any news at all? ”

Li Rui explained: "The other party sent a lot of masters into the hinterland of our country, specifically intercepting and killing messengers, General Tang has sent more than a dozen batches of messengers, and there has been no news for more than ten days, General Tang felt strange and sent someone to send a little errand, after learning what happened, he sent more than a dozen teams to disperse to the imperial capital, the two of us were the first to arrive, and the others have no news yet, it is estimated that those people are afraid that there will be more than one luck." ”

Yuan Fang frowned and said, "Master? What master? Martial arts master? ”

Yu Zhan shook his head and said, "It should be, our messengers are all good, so many people have no news, the other party should be very powerful." ”

Yuan Fang looked at Yang Xing: "What about the dark night?" Their people didn't find those guys? ”

Yang Xing sighed and said: "There are not many people over there in the dark night, and the personal force is not very strong, before Luo Siping reported that there was a group of difficult rogues in Dongzhou, and the dark night suffered heavy losses, he has already brought people over, calculate the time, they should be almost there." ”

Putting these aside, Yuan Fang said with a solemn expression: "Yunfu County is surrounded by the army of the Yuanhe Empire, and the army of the Ningyuan Empire is attacking Yanhai County, what the hell is this going to do?" ”

Yang Xing pointed to the map and said: "Obviously, they want to cut off our connection with Dugu Zhen, once Yanhai County and Yunfu County are lost, Dugu Zhen will have no way out." ”

Yuan Fang shouted outside the door: "Yuqing, Yuqing, you come in." Yuqing didn't come in just now, but stayed outside, and when she heard Yuan Fang's shouting, she thought something was happening, pulled out her battle knife, and rushed in with Huo Bingyan, Lin Menghan, and a team of female soldiers on duty.

As soon as they entered the door, they didn't find anything unusual, Huo Bingyan and the others put away their weapons and retreated, Yuqing glared at Yuan Fang angrily and said, "What's the ghost called?" I thought something was wrong. ”

Yuan Fang smiled embarrassedly, and then remembered that this was not the small courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, so he couldn't just shout: "That, I want you to help take a look at the situation." Then, Yuan Fang explained the matter to Yuqing in detail, and then asked, "What do you think?" ”

Yuqing looked at the map and pondered for a long time, then turned her head and asked Li Rui and Yu Zhan: "How many troops did the Yuanhe Empire and the Ningyuan Empire each send?" ”

Yu Zhan replied: "The ** team of Emperor Yuanhe besieging Yunfu County is about 50,000, and the ** team of Emperor Ning Yuan who attacked Yanhai County is about the same. ”

Fifty thousand troops is neither too much nor too little for an empire, and from this point it is impossible to see the focus of the opponent's attack and more information.

After a long time, Yuqing said: "There is a limit to what can be analyzed now, just like my brother-in-law said, the other party is planning to cut off the connection between us and Dugu Zhen, or they want to solve the hidden danger of Dugu Zhen as soon as possible and then concentrate on dealing with our Eastern Saint Empire." ”

Yang Xing sighed and said, "Dugu is really in danger now. ”

Yuan Fang asked Li Rui: "Has Dugu Zhen contacted you recently?" Or ask for help or something? ”

Li Rui shook his head and said, "I don't know, even if they send someone for help, it is estimated that they will not be able to come." "Yuan Fang thinks about it, the other party can send people here to intercept and kill the messenger, let alone in their territory.

Yuan Fang said angrily: "They are fighting without declaring war, it is really too despicable. ”

Yuqing rolled her eyes and said: "Yunfu County and Yanhai County were originally the territories of the Ningyuan Empire, and they can be regarded as recovering the lost territory, and they are famous, so we can't say anything." ”

Yuan Fang said depressedly: "Then what now?" ”

Yuqing glanced at Yuan Fang with disdain and said, "What else can I do?" Either give up Dugu Zhen, or send troops to reinforce it. At this time, Xiao Chuanzi reported that Chen Xin was here, and Zhou Lei came with him.

There was no nonsense, Yuan Fang told Chen Xin and Zhou Lei the matter as it was, Chen Xin pondered for a long time and said: "General Yuqing is right, we only have two paths, but no matter how we choose, we must send troops to reinforce Dongzhou as soon as possible to resist the coalition forces of the two empires of Ningyuan and Yuanhe." ”

Yang Xing had thought of these before, but he hadn't decided how to choose, if he sent troops to reinforce Yunfu County and Yanhai County, he might be able to contain the military strength of the Ningyuan Empire and reduce the pressure on Dugu Zhen, and if it was smooth, he might be able to support Dugu Zhen to help him disrupt the situation of the Ning Empire, so that the Ning Empire would not be able to send troops to attack. Taking a step back, you can also rescue Dugu Zhen and retreat to Yunfu and Yanhai counties, Dugu Zhen uses these two counties as the foundation to deal with his imperial brother, reduce the pressure on the border of Dongzhou, so that the Dongsheng Empire can concentrate its forces to guard the border between Guanglu County and the Yuanhe Empire to resist invasion or defensive counterattack.

But if this is done, it will inevitably trigger the Three Kingdoms War in advance, if the other party is determined to get rid of Dugu Zhen, they will continue to increase their troops, and it is not easy to solve the enemy army in Yunfu and coastal counties, and the casualties will be very large, and I don't know if Dugu Zhen can hold out until that time.

But if you give up Dugu Zhen, the Ningyuan Empire will be unified, and the Ning Yuan Empire, which has no worries, will definitely attack the Eastern Sage Empire with all its might, at that time, the two empires pouring out of the nest are not something that the Dongsheng Empire can withstand, and if you choose to give up Dugu Zhen, it is not useless, at least you can buy some time to consolidate and strengthen the border defense line, if the time comes, the defense line is stable enough, and the East Sage Empire is not without the power of a battle.

The two plans have their own pros and cons, Yang Xing has not yet decided how to choose, for him or for the Eastern Saint Empire, this decision is very important, if he chooses the wrong one, he will probably lose the country, so Yang Xing has to be cautious and cautious.

Yuqing asked Li Rui puzzled: "What about Tang Jian?" Didn't he send troops to the rescue? "Yuqing is not accusing, but asking.
