In the twilight, the sound of the golden watchman and the command to hand over the duty at the checkpoints everywhere sounded regularly in the camp. In the distance, the last batch of grain and baggage that had arrived today had not yet fully entered the camp, and the guards and the heavy mules and horses were lined up along the road, and the sound of chaotic footsteps and iron hooves on the ground slowly swept over the whole camp.

Lu Yao looked at the high place of the camp for a moment, until the dark red sun gradually fell into the thick dust and haze on the west side of the plain, and then turned his horse back and went down the path that the horses had trampled on the edge of the highland.

The tug-of-war between the Youzhou army and the thieves centered on Wating has been going on to the seventh day. The forces invested by both sides seem to be gradually increasing, but the intensity of the fighting is gradually decreasing. In the eyes of the soldiers, this is mainly because the Central Plains thieves are fierce, but since they are thieves, they always lack military discipline constraints, and they have no resilience at all. After holding on for a long time, he showed fatigue when attacking and defending.

On the other hand, the soldiers did not pay attention, or noticed but did not think much about it, on the other hand, Pingbei Lu Yao, as the commander of the Youji Coalition Army, also changed the tactical style of the past as fast as thunder, and did not have the intention of seizing the opportunity to settle the battle situation in one fell swoop. Since the enemy army was weakened, he also took advantage of the situation and returned to the camp early.

There are three reasons for this choice.

On the one hand, as previously judged, the boats and boats in the hands of the Youji coalition were limited after all, and many heavy grains and straw had to occupy the transportation capacity, and Rao was the shogunate officials who planned in every possible way, and they could only carry 20,000 horses across the river in five days. Considering that except for some of the elites selected, most of the Youji soldiers are not accustomed to water, and after crossing the river, all departments must have time to cultivate their physical strength, so the troops on the front line of Wating are far from sufficient. At present, it is enough to be able to force the thieves south of Wating and ensure the safety of the ferries along the big river.

In addition, the deterioration of the war situation in the Central Plains is far faster than Lu Yao and others expected, or in other words, the rulers of the Great Jin Dynasty are far more incompetent than Lu Yao and others expected. In less than two months, the army of the Shogunate of the King of the East China Sea in eastern Yanzhou had completely fallen under the siege of thieves; On the other side, the eastern part of Sizhou is also criss-crossed with chaotic soldiers and enemy cavalry, the Huns are pressing step by step, and Luoyang is only defending itself. In such a situation, the strategic goals of the Pingbei shogunate had to be adjusted accordingly, after all, they only expected to make contributions to gain the reputation of integrating the north, and were not willing to sink all their strength into the quagmire of the Central Plains. From this point of view, Shi Le's advisor was not wrong at all in judging that Lu Yao was "by no means a pure minister of the Jin family". It should have been a time when loyal ministers and lofty ideals rose up to turn the tide, but what Lu Yao thought in his heart was: how to obtain the greatest results with the military strength in his hands, and then rely on this results to seek political benefits...... Until this question is answered, the Youji coalition will never act rashly.

As for the third reason, it was the words that Lu Jun and Lu Daoyan said to him the day before yesterday. In the past two days, Lu Yao has repeatedly thought about Lu Jun's proposition, and he can't wait to disassemble every word and ponder it carefully. But he has to admit that such politically related judgments are far more complex and difficult to solve than decisions on the battlefield. The right choice will certainly bring success, glory and wealth, but if you make the wrong choice, it will be that countless people who follow you will die without a place to be buried! The more he thought about it, the more doubts he had in vain, and it was as if a flame was burning in his heart.

Lu Yao sighed, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and went straight to the Zhongjun tent. Behind, Pang Yuan and dozens of other horsemen hurriedly followed.

After years of military disasters, the once anointed land of Yanyu is now full of household registration, and there are many hungry or mutilated limbs on both sides of the road. The rest of the people have become frightened birds, and most of them hide among the lakes and woodlands, and dare not come out, leaving their homes to be abandoned. As a result, the Youzhou army and the thieves fought back and forth in Wating Chong for several days, but they did not see half of the local residents. This was true even in the large battalions of the Chinese army in the rear. Obviously, the drums and horns are everywhere, and the war horses are neighing in groups without disturbing the people, which makes people sad.

Lu Yao's large tent stood on the ruins of a courtyard, with adobe walls that had not collapsed on three sides to block the wind, and the central place that was originally a courtyard was just used for deliberations. There was a tall locust tree on the right side of the middle of the courtyard, but unfortunately most of the once flourishing branches were cut down at some point, and the trunk was burned again, and it burned black. The tabernacle hung right over the trunk of the tree and hung down on all sides. At this time, the evening breeze blew into the tent, and the remaining few sparse dead branches made a crackling sound and swayed. The sound reached Lu Yao's ears, which made him even more anxious.

When I turned to sit down, I saw a bowl of bean rice, a plate of salted vegetables, and a roasted fish on the desk. When Lu Yao was in the army, he was very self-respecting, and his diet was not much different from that of ordinary soldiers. However, at this moment, it is clear that he is hungry, but he has no appetite.

He beckoned Pang Yuan to come closer: "Lu Sacrifice Wine, but it's all settled?" ”

"The sacrificial wine is a honored guest, and I don't dare to wait slowly, and yesterday I have allocated people to wait."

"Okay." When Lu Yao pondered for a while, he asked again: "How is General Bo today?" ”

General Bo refers to Bo Sheng of the beggar army. He got a message from Ye Yunzheng, so he hurriedly crossed the river to inquire about the envoy of the so-called King of the East China Sea, and he did not leave for a few days.

Pang Yuan replied: "General Bo came once, when the war was raging, and the lord had no time to see him. He waited for a moment and left, nothing out of the ordinary. ”

Lu Yao nodded slightly, and was about to eat, when he suddenly looked at Pang Yuan, and sighed again: "Back then, when I only led dozens of people, I was a sharp man, and I didn't fight heels, but I was also hearty. It's like now, or trivial, or intriguing, and there is no time to worry. ”

This was unintentionally talking to himself, but Pang Yuan replied: "Leading dozens of people to fight, that's just the work of the puppet, I often think that as a manly husband, he should strive to win fame and wealth, or one day he can be as honorable and majestic as the lord." ”

Hearing this, Lu Yao was stunned at first, then burst out laughing, raised his handbag and pointed at Pang Yuan and said, "You guy, you have very good ideas, but your words are too straightforward." ”

If these words fall into the ears of the Lord of Jealousy, I am afraid that something will happen immediately. However, Lu Yao was born in the army and could understand the desire of middle-level officers to make meritorious contributions, so he not only had no suspicions, but sincerely appreciated them. He really felt that it was always so pleasant to get along with these straightforward warriors.

laughed a few times, and the suppressed emotions seemed to dissipate, and he was about to make fun of Pang Yuan, when he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside the big tent from far and near. Lu Yao's face turned pale, and he raised his voice: "What's the matter?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Sheng's hurried voice came from outside: "Lord, 100,000 urgent military situation." ”

Lu Yao threw himself and got up: "Report it immediately." ”

Zhu Sheng walked into the tent, stopped immediately, put down the two tents, and covered them tightly.

Pang Yuan has been by Lu Yao's side for several months, and he has cultivated a little bit of eyesight, and he is no longer the simple mammoth man he was at the beginning. Seeing that Zhu Sheng was solemn, he pressed his sword and retreated, until he stood on the side of the tent door.

His eyes were raised slightly, but when he saw Zhu Sheng's scorched face, his expression was a little hasty, and he was a little strange: "Lord, Zhang Wu is back." He lowered his voice and said, "He came back with him, and ......."

Zhu Sheng's next words were extremely slight, and Pang Yuan couldn't really hear it. After a full half a moment, he saw Lu Yao's expression uncertain under the swaying candlelight, and said word by word: "Really? ”
