"This weasel gives New Year's greetings to chickens, and there is no good thing; You said that Zhang Yubo and Yuan Hancheng came over, is it the East China Sea Fox behind the trick to get me? ”

Zhang Yubo and Yuan Hancheng left on the front foot, and Chen Hansan got up from the bed in a hurry, how could he be a little sick? drove the concubine out, leaving only Ma Zhen to discuss things.

Ma Zhen frowned, Zhang Yubo first mentioned the timing of the deception, and he also subconsciously thought that this was Chen Hansan's illness and not going to Huaiyang, and if he couldn't make a plan, Lin Tie asked Zhang Yubo to do another trick, and he had other ideas at this time.

"Ma Fu case, Lin Tie beheaded the son-in-law of the King of Chu, copied the Ma family, and fattened his own pockets, the King of Chu repeatedly complained about injustice, and he couldn't wait to peel Lin Tie and eat it in the oil pot, how could he cooperate with Zhang Yubo to earn us?" Ma Zhen said.

"That old horseman, wearing the hat of the king of Chu, who is the bird of him? After tossing for so long, maybe he would succumb in front of Huaidong first. ”

Chen Hansan said. Over the years, he has only deceived people, but he doesn't want to hunt geese all year round, and finally pecks the geese.

"Even if it is a plan, as long as the handsome man guards Xuzhou City and does not give Huaidong soldiers and horses a chance to come in, where will Huaidong calculate?" Ma Zhen scrutinized.

"yes." Chen Hansan frowned, and said to himself, "Zhang Yubo wants us to surrender because he wants to lure the soldiers and horses of Dayan to take Xuzhou City and the Huaidong soldiers and horses to encircle and annihilate him; But when the soldiers and horses of Dayan come over, we will really open the gate of Xuzhou and let them in, what can Huaidong do to us? This is not a strategy at all, could it be that Zhang Yubo and the old man really want us to surrender and cooperate with Huaidong to annihilate the soldiers and horses of Dayan! ”

"Yes!" Ma Zhen said, "The handsome man may be able to calculate!" ”

"Huh, that's that easy?" Chen Hansan snorted lightly and said, "If Lin Lian really wants us to lure the soldiers and horses of Dayan to come and ambush him, maybe we can plan it, but this is just Zhang Yubo's wishful thinking with the old horseman, even if we want to do it, how can Lin Tie be easily fooled?" ”

"I don't think there's any harm," Ma Zhen said, "If Zhang Yubo's plan can really be successful, cooperate with Huaidong to lure and annihilate tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Northern Dynasty, and easily relieve the siege of Dongping, how can it be regarded as a great feat!" If Lin Jian thinks that even if we vote for the Northern Dynasty, we won't be able to reap much benefit, how can this great feat be a bit tempting! ”

"Then tell me how to calculate it?" Chen Hansan whetted his appetite for Ma Zhen's words.

"Let Zhang Yubo go to Huaiyang to find Lin Tie to rub this strategy, and we will take advantage of the situation to ......," Ma Zhen said.

"Just going with the flow?" Chen Hansan asked.

"Just go with the flow." Ma Zhen said.

"If Yuan Lishan doesn't believe us and doesn't send troops and horses over, how can we take advantage of the situation?" Chen Hansan said.

"The handsome man can send the big and small sons over as a hostage to win the trust of Yuan Lishan. Moreover, Yuan Lishan sent people to take Xuzhou City, and one or two thousand people were enough. Compared with one or two hundred thousand soldiers and horses and Xuzhou City, which one is important, is it not clear at a glance? Even if Yuan Lishan didn't dare to be such a master, Ye Jiduodi, who was in Jinan, didn't have the guts? Moreover, the Northern Dynasty also has a good understanding of the situation between Huaisi and Si, otherwise it would not have sent General Gao to sneak over and meet you. Ma Zhen said.

Chen Hansan touched the messy beard under his chin and fell silent.

Xuzhou and Huaiyang are next to each other, Huaiyang has something to do, he is as sensitive as a rabbit, in the past two years, Huaidong's investment in Huaiyang Town can hide from others, but it can't hide from them.

In the past, the Red Jacket Army has always been regarded as the elite soldiers in the Liumin Army, but it is difficult to match the elite of the officers and soldiers due to the lack of soldiers and armor, clothing and food, but in the past two years, how many materials Huaidong has imported into Huaiyang, Chen Hansan has a rough idea in his heart.

With the support of a large number of materials, the total number of soldiers of the Huaiyang Town Army did not increase much, but the combat strength of the Huaiyang Town Army rose in a straight line, far from what it used to be. Not to mention, the number of cavalry currently stationed in Huaiyang Town is more than twice that of Xuzhou.

The Qingzhou army built a fortress in the Yangxin area, almost waiting for the Dayan soldiers and horses to press before rushing to the march, and Huaidong's repair and consolidation of the city in the Huaisi area began two years ago.

Chen Hansan knew that Dayan's soldiers and horses were strong, but he was also very skeptical that he could break through the Huaisi defense line at once.

If they can't break through the Huaiyang defense line at once, and finally form a cruel tug-of-war, as a new force in the past, Chen Hansan also knows that they will not be able to escape the fate of fighting in the front.

If he can calculate it, even if it is to cripple Huaiyang Town, it is also a very dazzling statement of nomination - the key is to destroy the Huaisi front, and prevent the elite he has saved up over the years from being taken out to fight with Huaidong.

The key is that the so-called trick of surrender is just wishful thinking on the part of Zhang Yubo and Yuan Hancheng, and it is only made by taking advantage of the situation, how can it be called Huaidongzhong's plan for their generals?

Ma Zhen could see the hesitation in Chen Hansan's heart, and said: "Even if the plan fails, there is no harm to us, but it is just to put the soldiers and horses of the Northern Dynasty into Xuzhou - Xuzhou is caught in the middle at this time, the handsome man should make up his mind, otherwise both sides will not be pleased!" ”

Chen Hansan frowned, the clouds of war in Hehuai were shrouded, although the Northern Dynasty repeatedly sent secret envoys to say that he had surrendered, he hesitated and did not make a final decision. It's not that he still has hope for the Yue Dynasty, but he doesn't want to throw himself into the North at this time to drive the lead and consume too much strength. He knew that even if he voted for Yanhu, if he wanted to be taken seriously, he had to have soldiers in his hands to succeed! Otherwise, who would care about him, a rebel who was born as a horse thief and had many defections?

However, when the soldiers and horses of Dayan rushed to the city of Xuzhou and then surrendered to the past, it was not "cast" at that time, but "surrendered".

How big is the difference between "throwing" and "falling", Chen Hansan naturally knows it in his heart, and this is precisely the most tangled place in his heart.

Hearing Ma Zhen say this, Chen Hansan couldn't help but clench his fists, and said secretly: If you can't plan it, it's nothing more than to surrender to the past in advance, and you still hesitate!

Ma Zhen peeked at Chen Hansan's eyes, and said: "If the plan is calculated, the merits of the handsome man are enough to stand side by side with Yuan and Chen......"

The new annexed army is most famous for Yuan Lishan and Chen Zhihu, and Chen Hansan is also satisfied to be able to stand side by side with him, but he knows that he is only conservative in the past, and it is impossible to stand side by side with Yuan and Chen.

****************

Chen Hansan promised to cooperate with Huaidong's plan to deceive and surrender, and specially sent Ma Zhen to accompany Zhang Yubo to Huaiyang to meet Lin Jian on his behalf to discuss the details. Yuan Hancheng, the king of Chu, thought that in order to ensure that Chen Hansan would not change his mind and to calm his heart, he specially stayed in Xuzhou City and did not leave.

Zhang Yubo and Ma Zhen rushed to Huaiyang on the night of the 18th to talk about the fraudulent surrender, and it happened that Liu Tingzhou was also in Huaiyang.

Liu Tingzhou came on behalf of Dong Yuan, he was more purely loyal to the Yuan family, and he cooperated with Yue Lengqiu before, and at this time, there was no obstacle to cooperate with Dong Yuan.

During the banquet, he heard Zhang Yubo talk about the plan to surrender, and Gao Zongting clapped his hands and praised: "This strategy is very good, if you can lure the Yanyu soldiers and horses to the outside of Xuzhou City to annihilate them, the siege of Dongping may be solved......

Ma Lan's first-class Huaiyang generals changed color, regardless of Lin Lian's presence, Ma Lantou pushed the table and stood up, and said: "Chen Hansan, a dog thief, can't be trusted, and look at how many 'own people' have died in his hands since his career, Huaidong must not repeat the mistakes of the past!" ”

Liu Tingzhou was silent with a gloomy face, Sun Zhuang couldn't hold his breath even more, and pointed at Ma Zhen's nose and was about to scold.

Lin Jian held the teacup, slammed it heavily on the long case, and said in a suppressed voice: "Enough, today I am waiting for Chen Shuai to be a minister in the same palace, how can I talk about my colleagues so much behind my back?" Don't be too presumptuous! ”

Sun Zhuang was speechless and sat down in a muffled voice; Ma Lan's face suddenly darkened, although he and the generals of Huaiyang had the intention to attach themselves to Huaidong, but they had not officially surrendered to the past, Lin Lian's merciless reprimand made him very embarrassed.

Ma Zhen was secretly happy in his heart, stood up to play a round, and said: "In the past, there were indeed places where I couldn't stand you, but there were also all kinds of helplessness and compulsion; Chen Shuai is sick today, and the next official apologizes to you on behalf of Chen Shuai, scolds and beats, and listens to everyone. But today's alien aggression, Chen Shuai is really sincere, can't you give up your past suspicions? ”

Ma Zhen is like this, the generals of Huaiyang and Liu Tingzhou have been deeply victimized by Chen Hansan, and they have never given him a good look, and the banquet has broken up unhappily.

When the banquet dispersed, Ma Lantou did not go back to his residence, but took Sun Zhuang with Li Liang and others to Liu Miaozhen's mansion.

Ma Lantou scolded Lin Lian, and he was still extremely uncomfortable, and he went to Liu Miaozhen's house to drink tea, and his face was still dark and sullen.

Liu Miaozhen's face was covered with a mask, she looked at Ma Lantou, and said with a smile: "Master Ma is really cautious - Lord Lin and Mr. Gao came to Huaiyang, and what they planned day and night was to guard against Chen Hansan, how could it be that as soon as Zhang Yubo and Ma Zhen came over to talk about this, they believed it?" ”

"Adults have always pushed Zhang Yubo, Zhang Yubo can still partner to deceive Huaidong, isn't it credulous to believe Chen Hansan?" Ma Lantou has always been steady, but at this time he was also moved.

At this time, a guard came in to report Lin Lian's visit, and a moment later, the guards led Lin Lian, Gao Zongting, Ye Junan, Zhou Pu and others in.

Lin Jian saw that Ma Lantou, Li Liang, Sun Zhuang and others were also here, and saluted Ma Lantou and said: "I guessed that Ma Ye is here, the words during the banquet just now were too heavy, so I specially chased after Ma Ye to apologize......

Lin Tie's apology, Ma Lantou was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, the anger in his heart instantly disappeared, he stood up and returned the salute, and said: "The last general was really reckless during the banquet, and he should reprimand the adult......

Liu Miaozhen gave up the main seat for Lin Jian to sit on, and she sat next to the long case.

Lin Jian sat cross-legged and said: "The plan of deception is indeed the first to be mentioned by Zhang Yubo - Zhang Yubo has always been straightforward and can be trusted, but he has illusions about Chen Hansan, and it is not difficult to understand that what we care about is whether Chen Hansan is really cooperating or will plan ......."

"Do you want to do it the other way around?" Ma Lantou had too much grudge against Chen Hansan before, so he was angry and bloody for a while, and he didn't think too much, how could he not understand it after Lin Lian's explanation, and he was embarrassed for the resentment that he didn't come to just now.

"It's not that simple!" Lin Jian shook his head and said, "If Chen Hansan doesn't come out in Xuzhou City, there is no way to take him-but since Mr. Gao has said that this plan is very good, how can I cooperate with the play to continue first, and then talk about it, it will cause Ma Ye to be scolded by me for no reason......"
