Li Jing led the army to sail out to sea, first to Wuhu Island to meet the defeated and retreated Nutao Battalion, and then to join the soldiers of the Zhenhai Battalion, and went straight to Qingnipu. Megan and Julie were invited by Li Jing to accompany them. Although the two were very dissatisfied with their subordinates' house arrest, they also knew that those lieutenants had Li Jing's support, and they were a little impulsive when they asked to send troops at that time, and they were at their own expense, and they did not make any noise.

However, Li Jing also knew that after this incident, they would have difficulty getting along with their subordinates and lieutenants in the future. At the moment, Megan and Julie were transferred to the ten generals and deputy ten generals of the Angry Waves Battalion, and they temporarily commanded the remaining generals of the Angry Waves Battalion. The Zhenhai battalion was handed over to the former capital, and Li Xu, who was also of the same clan, commanded and promoted him to the tenth general of the Zhenhai battalion.

Before leaving, Li Jing said solemnly to Julie, Meghan and Li Xu's generals: "Some misunderstandings before were all for Shamen Town, and this battle is a big deal and cannot be defeated. I hope that everyone will ignore their past suspicions, cooperate with each other, fight this battle well, and rescue Huang Shijiang's generals and the brothers of the Nutao Battalion. ”

Li Xu took the initiative to express his position, apologized to Meghan and the others first, and promised: "I will not live up to the general's order." ”

The besieged Qingni City was led by Dewei himself, who heard that Shamen Town had joined more than 10,000 people from the eight battalions of Dengzhou to cross the sea, and he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly convened his subordinates to discuss. Originally, everyone thought that as long as Li Lingfu was defeated, then Li Jing should not send troops again. His adviser Li De said: "The city lord doesn't need to be frightened, then Li Jing is only more than 10,000 people." There is a time to worry. Li Lingfu had more than 40,000 troops attacking Duli Town, and the army was wiped out. Now Li Jing dared to come again with more than 10,000 people. It's just a dead ear. We don't have to be afraid of him now, as long as we capture Qingni City first, then Li Jing will inevitably withdraw his troops when he sees this. ”

Zhang Dewei immediately ordered to intensify the attack on the inner city of Qingni City, except for the 5,000 soldiers and horses who intercepted Li Juyi's brothers in the valley outside the city, 30,000 soldiers and horses removed more than 1,000 dead and wounded, and more than 20,000 soldiers and horses remained, attacking the city together. On the other hand, Li De was sent to Duli Town, and asked Duli Town to send reinforcements. Face off against Li Jing.

Li Jing marched all the way, and while sending Li Weifa scouts to investigate the situation of Qingni City, he had to report that only the soldiers and horses of Beisha City besieged Qingni City, and the soldiers and horses of Duli Town did not arrive. "Beisha City is stepping up the siege of the city, the soldiers and civilians in Qingni City are now retreating to the inner city, Li Juren and Li Meng and others are desperately resisting, but they can only hold out for a few days at most, and they will fall sooner or later."

The generals said that they should immediately go to support Qingni City, but Megan and the others asked to rescue Yellowbeard and the others trapped in the valley outside the city first. While the crowd was making a lot of noise, a scribe in his thirties at the back sat smiling alone.

Seeing this, Li Jing couldn't help asking, "Zimei suddenly laughed." But do you have a good plan to break the enemy in your heart? ”

This person is a scribe who has just joined Li Jing, and his surname is Li Mingliang, and his character is Zimei. Although there is no grade in a green shirt, his family background is not low. His ancestor is the ancestral home of the Western Regions Zhaowu nine surnamed Su Mo Hu people, later into the Tang Dynasty, Zhongxing Tang Dynasty hero Li Baozhen is his great-ancestor, Li Baozhen was given the surname Li because of shame and An Lushan with the same surname. In his generation, his family was in decline, and he had participated in the imperial examination several times but failed to do so, which made him deeply disgusted with the imperial examination, especially some of the corruption in it, and finally went into business.

When Li Jing attacked Da Xie Yan, his merchant ships were forcibly requisitioned by Feng Zhang, so he became Li Jing's prisoner after the war. However, when Li Jing heard that Feng Zhang had recruited his ship, he once persuaded Feng Zhang not to attack Shamen Town, and said that the battle would be lost, but Feng Zhang did not listen. Li Jing felt that this businessman was a little extraordinary, so he personally met with him, and after talking with him, he felt that this person had an extraordinary conversation and a good vision, so he personally invited him to serve as his staff officer in the tent. The position of staff officer is one of the important staff members under the soldiers and horses, and it is a position that is not available at the level of the town, and the grade is eighth.

With just a conversation, Li Jing was going to appoint him as the staff officer of Zheng Bapin, which made Li Liang very shocked and surprised, and finally felt that he had met a good master, and immediately accepted the invitation to appoint. However, although he is a staff officer, he is still only a newcomer in Shamen Town, so at this time, he only accompanies the last seat.

Hearing Li Jing's question, Li Liang hurriedly stood up, bowed his hand and said, "Back in the Yanei, I think that it is not difficult to save the danger of Qingni City. The difficulty is how to answer the fundamental purpose of our troops, which is to show the military might of our Shamen Town in such an unfavorable situation, deter the Liaodong Provinces, and make them dare not take Qingni City again, and then have a bad heart for our Shamen Town. Therefore, from the perspective of the post, this job is the time to save the danger of Qingni City, and if it shows our military might, it is the master. ”

Zhang Hong glanced at Li Liang with some dissatisfaction, feeling that this person was just a sensationalist person, who would only play some tricks. I think he worked hard to take care of many affairs for Shamen Town, and he worked hard to gain Li Jing's trust and become the first person in the staff, but this Li Liang didn't care about everything, he only cared about some things and didn't, but he was very trusted by Li Jing, which made him a little depressed.

"What's your plan?" Zhang Hong asked with a hint of hostility.

Li Liang stroked the three locks of long beard under his chin and said with a smile: "If the general can use the strategy of his position, Beisha City and Duli Town, which will definitely be able to fight in a battle, will not dare to think about us again." ”

"Say it!" Li Jing couldn't help but arouse his appetite for Li Liang's confident words.

Under the eyes of the generals, Li Liang smiled slightly: "Although there are many people in Beisha City, they are all rabble, but they are just a group of horse thieves. In the past, he has always been suppressed by Li Lingfu, but this time he is just taking advantage of the danger. Moreover, Beisha City was previously defeated by Li Lingfu, and the 3,000 elite cavalry lost 2,000. Now among the 30,000 soldiers, the real elite is only more than 1,000 cavalry, no more than 10,000 foot soldiers, and the rest are only strong people; I attacked them with regular troops, and I attacked them by surprise, and all of them were successful. There is also a plan, not only to protect Qingni City, but also to defeat Duli Town. ”

Li Jing asked: "Will the plan be released?" ”

Li Liang said confidently: "One of the most crucial reasons for Li Lingfu's defeat in Duli Town is that among the coalition troops he pulled, 5,000 Khitan and Xi people had already been bought by Duli Town, and they defected to the battle, which made Li Lingfu so defeated. Otherwise. Although Li Lingfu was inevitably defeated. But it will not be almost wiped out. As far as I know. Among the 30,000 troops of Zhang Dewei in this Beisha City, not all of them were soldiers of Beisha City, but there were several soldiers and horses of Goguryeo nobles and Silla people and even Bohai people, although there were not many, only 3,000 people, and all of them were foot soldiers, but they already accounted for about 30% of the infantry soldiers in Beisha City. We might as well follow the example of Duli Town and come and buy it too. These 3,000 soldiers and horses. The three powerful forces from Goguryeo, Balhae, and Silla, but their power is very small, and they survive in the cracks of Liaodong, acting as mercenaries and bandits. This time, they followed Zhang Dewei to send troops to Qingnipu, and the rest also took money to serve as mercenaries. ”

"Mercenaries, in fact, are a group of bandits, as long as whoever pays more, they will definitely give their lives to whom, these people have no morality at all. Yanei, as long as he takes out a sum of money to secretly buy off these 3,000 soldiers and horses. When it is critical, it can be miraculous. ”

"Exactly?"

Li Liangdao: "The specific strategy under the post is two positive and two strange. The two are divided into two ways for the soldiers, and they directly attack Qingnipu all the way. Go straight to the rescue of the trapped people in the besieged valley. The key is the second way of strange soldiers, the first way of the strange soldiers is naturally the Beisha soldiers and horses of the Fan soldiers as the internal response, the second way of the strange soldiers, is in front of the second road of the main soldiers to rescue the trapped people in the valley, lurking on the way to the valley from Duli Town. I heard that Zhang Dewei had asked people to send a letter to Duli Town, asking him to send troops to help. This second way of strange soldiers is the reinforcements of Duli Town. ”

After Li Jing listened to these two positive and strange strategies, he couldn't help but applaud. I really didn't look at the wrong person, this Li Liang is indeed that kind of strategic staff, and he is also the talent he lacks the most now. Secretly bribing enemy soldiers, when the time comes, the inside and the outside should be combined, and the ambush outside the city, but it is the encirclement point to send reinforcements, these two strategies are in line with the essence of the art of war, from which it can be seen that Li Liang is indeed talented.

"Good, good strategy. However, I will hand over the matter of buying the soldiers of the Three Roads to you personally, do you dare to go? Li Jing's last sentence was to test his courage, and the plan was proposed by him, and Li Jing also believed that he could complete this task with that ability.

Li Liang did not disappoint Li Jing, and responded to the matter without hesitation. Li Jingnai personally wrote three letters to the Tibetan Ministry for him to bring with him, and promised the purchase conditions of 100,000 yuan for each of the three Tibetan Ministries.

Li Jing led the army to land directly in Qingni Port, Zhang Dewei may have heard of the prestige of Li Jing's fleet, and did not dare to come to the port to meet the battle, but only placed more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under Qingni City to meet the defense, and the rest continued to attack Qingni City. Li Jing's soldiers immediately went ashore, and after finding out that the three Tibetan troops were stationed on the right flank of Qingnicheng, he led the army to advance that night, attracting 3,000 Tibetan troops to meet them, but suddenly withdrew their troops.

And Li Liang led more than ten horsemen with Li Jing's letter to take this opportunity to enter the camp of the Tibetan army, and the three Tibetan troops were organized into a battalion, each with 1,000 men and horses. The main general was none other than the Goguryeo nobleman Gao Rong, who was a serious Goguryeo royal family, and when he heard the report from the camp that there were more than a dozen horsemen in front of the camp, he was surprised and asked people to bring them into the tent.

"You are Li Jing's person, why are you here?"

Li Liang was not afraid of the celestial question, and said with a solemn smile: "A certain is to send wealth to the general." Although my general is in Dengzhou, I have long heard of the general's prestige. But I heard that although the general is brave and unparalleled, he has no place for his own foundation. Thinking that Zhang Dewei is just a horse thief, but he occupies such a big city as Beisha City. And General Gao is a Goguryeo royal family, but there is no basis. The general of my family respects the identity and hero of General Gao, and sends a fortune to the general. As long as the general cooperates with my lord, Beisha City will belong to you from now on, and my general is willing to give a generous gift of 100,000 yuan. If General Gao can say that the two divisions of Silla and Silla are moving, then there is still a lot of thanks. The opportunity must not be lost, the time will not come again, it is not early to plan, and there is no time to regret! ”

Gao Rong was greatly moved after taking Li Jing's handwritten letter, and Li Jing not only proposed in the letter that if he cooperated to defeat Zhang Dewei, then he would fully support him to take Beisha City, and also gave him another 100,000 yuan. And promised that after the siege of Qingni City was lifted, there would be a big gift of thanks. After Gorong was indeed the royal family of Goguryeo, the ancestor was the king of Goguryeo, and even after the Tang Dynasty destroyed the country, the nobles of Goguryeo once served as the protector of Andu Dadu, and actually helped the Tang court manage Liaodong. But now, there are only 10,000 people in the hearsay he leads, and this time he brought 1,000 people to respond to Zhang Dewei's coming to help, just because Zhang Dewei paid 5,000 yuan in employment fees. Five thousand is a lot of money, after all, this is only the cost of sending troops, the looting and seizures on the battlefield are all their own, after a battle, he estimates that he can have tens of thousands of income, which can greatly alleviate the plight of the tribe.

But now compared with Li Jing's conditions, Gao Rong can't help but feel that Zhou Dewei is too stingy. If Qingnipu is laid, it will be a lot of inheritance, but he will only share 5,000 yuan for himself. is like Li Jing, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was 100,000 yuan, and it was just a meeting gift, and he was promised to take Beisha City as a foundation.

Gao Rongchang sighed and said: "I hate to get acquainted with a hero like Ji Yu earlier, you can rest assured that this matter will be wrapped up in me." For the other two, you don't have to worry. The Che Thorn Department was actually a rebellious tribe of the Bohai Kingdom, and it was very difficult to escape to Liaodong. The Bu'an Ministry in Silla was actually the old department of Baekje, and it was also unable to stay in the country so it fled to Liaodong. You can rest assured, one person gave them 50,000 yuan, and they were definitely willing to help General Ji Yu with this. Giving 100,000 is too much, giving them 50,000 is enough. “

Li Liang heard the greed in Gao Rong's words, and immediately smiled: "Since this is the case, then these 300,000 generals take 200,000, but in fact, the two families take 100,000." ”

"yes, that's it."

"Money is just a trivial matter, the key is to get things done, as long as things can be done well, a little money and food is nothing." Li Liang said seriously.

Gao Rong patted his chest and said loudly: "Please rest assured, sir, this matter is all on me, and the affairs of the car stabbing department and the Fu'an department will never be wrong." Mr. go back first, when General Ji Yu attacks, I and the Che Thorn and Fu'an Department will definitely fight back. But look at the fire as a signal, and the soldiers and horses will be made accordingly. ”

Li Liang took advantage of the night to quietly return satisfied and repay Li Jing.

Seeing that the matter was negotiated, Li Jingnai took advantage of the night to send three troops, the first way, the general Wang Chong led the Qingwolf battalion and Dengzhou eight soldiers and horses, a total of 6,000 people, approached Qingni City. On the second road, Lin Wu led the Iron Gun Battalion, Megan Julie led the Nutao Battalion, Li Xu led the Zhenhai Battalion, and 3,000 soldiers and horses sent to the Chigu Valley outside the city. Li Jing led the Tiebi Battalion and the Flying Eagle Battalion and the Wudu 1,000 cavalry, a total of 3,000 soldiers and horses, and the horses were wrapped in hooves and quietly walked, directly heading to Duli Town to ambush on the road between Qingnicheng and Chigu.

Li Jing led his troops, under the guidance of Li Wei's scouts, and quietly selected a dangerous place to ambush. Sandwiched between two mountains, there is a narrow path in the middle that cannot be ridden in parallel, which is an excellent place for ambushes.

Everything is ready, just wait for the fat sheep to come to the door. (To be continued......)
