"General Xie's good intentions! The general should know my master's rules, and he does not allow people below to accept gifts at will. ”

Luo Da'an politely refused, gently pushed his palm, and pushed the sword back, with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant.

Since his father's death, his mother has cried like a tearful person, and after that experience, he has also grown a lot.

Although his mother was born as a peasant woman and didn't know a few big characters, she understood some of the truth, and told him that the reason why the two brothers were able to be valued by Meng Shanming and Lan Ruoting as disciples was because his father fought hard, and no matter how many people asked for such an opportunity, the two brothers must fight.

Let's ask, how could Luo Da'an break the rules at will and easily accept gifts from others.

Seeing this, Xu Jingyue's adjutant general was immediately dissatisfied, and scolded: "This is one of the general's swords, others can't ask for it, where is the hypocrisy?"

Xu Jingyue immediately retorted: "Shut up!"

Meng Shanming's calm voice came from inside the tent, "Who is making noise outside?" ”

Xu Jingyue's elbow slammed back, and the general who hit him staggered back a few steps and rubbed his chest.

Xu Jingyue and Luo Da'an returned to the tent one after another, only to see that Gong Lince was personally examining Meng Shanming in a wheelchair.

Meng Shanming had slept for a full day, and his whole spirit was obviously much better, and his originally dark face eased up, and he was also a little bloody.

Luo Da'an walked to the wheelchair and leaned over and muttered a few words in Meng Shanming's ear.

Meng Shanming glanced at the extra sword in Xu Jingyue's hand, and said indifferently: "Since it is the intention of your father's old friend, accept it!"

"Yes!" Luo Da'an responded, and immediately walked up to Xu Jingyue and stretched out his hands to beg for it, "General Xie Xu." ”

"......" Xu Jingyue was speechless, and handed him the sword in his hand.

Gong Lince's hand also left Meng Shanming's body, stood up straight and said: "I wanted Meng Shuai to rest for a while, but the military situation was really urgent, and I was waiting for Meng Shuai to make an idea, so I had to let Meng Shuai wake up in advance." ”

After the victory of the Hukou defense line, the defense line of the Song Guojiang River was suddenly loosened, and Zhang Hu and others naturally felt that the princes on the other side should take advantage of the situation to cross the river.

But Gong Lince felt that how could Song Guo have such a good intention, and he was worried about fraud.

To put it bluntly, Gong Lince was not very confident about the ability of Zhang Hu and others, and felt that such a thing should still be decided by Meng Shanming, so he let Meng Shanming wake up.

The battle of the Hukou defense line was arranged by Meng Shanming in advance, and it was just handed over to the people below to carry out, and he cared about the battle as soon as he woke up, and Luo Da'an had already reported the battle situation to him.

As for the current situation of the Song Kingdom's Jiang defense, Meng Shanming didn't know yet, so he waved his hand and said, "Go to the Chinese military tent." ”

So a group of people came out one after another, surrounded Meng Shanming and went to the Chinese military tent.

As soon as he entered the account, Meng Shanming signaled to report the situation, and Zhang Hu immediately stood in front of the map and explained in detail the situation of the enemy and us.

After Zhang Hu finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Meng Shanming.

Meng Shanming stared at the map and pondered for a while, and said slowly: "The Song army loosened the defense line from north to south, and it was about to move to this side, and ordered An Xianzhao, Su Qitong, and Shi Xinmao to cross the river by taking advantage of the situation, and wait for my follow-up military order!"

"Yes!" Zhang Hu responded, glancing at Gong Lince by the way.

Gong Lince received it, understood what the other party meant, and thought that he was doing too much, but the result was not the same as crossing the river.

Xu Jingyue asked with a dry smile, "The loss of Changzhou people is not small, and it is also my turn to make meritorious contributions to the people of Gongzhou, Meng Shuai, what are you going to do next?"

Meng Shanming stared at the map and didn't look back, "I have something to discuss with the head of the palace, you guys go out first." ”

"Uh..." Xu Jingyue was speechless again, and wanted to say something, but Zhang Hu grabbed his arm and dragged him out directly.

There was no one else in the tent, only Meng Shanming, Gong Lince and Luo Da'an remained.

Meng Shanming was still staring at the map, Gong Lince waited for a while to break the calm, and asked, "What advice does Meng Shuai have?"

Meng Shanming came back to his senses, and Luo Da'an also pushed him around to face Gong Lince.

Meng Shanming: "I have a secret plan, and I need the three major factions to send reliable monks to cooperate, I don't know what the palace master wants?"

Gong Lince said: "As long as it can be done, it is natural to spare no effort to cooperate, Meng Shuai but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Meng Shanming asked for a hand, pointed to a certain location on the map, and began to explain clearly to Gong Lince.

Gong Lince made a promise after understanding what he meant, and then quickly left to make arrangements.

As soon as Gong Lince left, Xu Jingyue came in again, took a big bowl of meat porridge with both hands, and said with a smile: "Meng Shuai, this is a little game that the last general will let people beat, a little meat porridge stewed, it has been stewed for a long time, and the stew is rotten, just for Meng Shuai to nourish his stomach." ”

Meng Shanming slept for so long and didn't eat, and he was indeed hungry, so he was not polite.

Taking advantage of Meng Shanming's eating and drinking, Xu Jingyue was rubbing beside him, hoping that the people of Gongzhou would also make meritorious contributions, and most importantly, he wanted to ask Zhang Hu how to distribute the two grains that he had won before and after, and repeatedly said that the food in his hands was indeed not much.

Meng Shanming drank porridge slowly, and when he didn't hear it, Xu Jingyue was embarrassed again, and found that he was looking for fun.

If someone else is the commander, Xu Jingyue is likely to slap the table, and he really has no confidence and dare not face Meng Shanming.

Of course, if he were replaced by someone else, he would not be so lowly and flattering.

......

"Immediately notify all the troops, stop the assembly, and the men and horses who have evacuated the defense line will return immediately!"

Luo Zhao's new order arrived, and in the Jiangfang Governor's Palace, Wu Qunlie, who saw the new order, immediately gave an order.

The generals in the hall looked at each other, and one of them asked: "Why? Couldn't you go back to block it?" Shi Xinmao's department had already crossed the river, and now he couldn't stop it if he wanted to go back. ”

Wu Qunlie passed Luo Zhao's order to everyone.

After reading it, everyone understood that the river defense was still abandoned, but the previous plan to gather superior forces to annihilate the enemy's vanguard to cross the river was revoked, and it jumped directly to the last step, entangled and harassed, and consumed the enemy army.

Someone looked at the new order and sighed: "In this way, after loosening the defensive line, without making any resistance, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the imperial court to explain." ”

Wu Qunlie: "This is not something we are worried about, since the Metropolitan Governor has given such an order, there will naturally be the Metropolitan Governor on the court side, what we have to do is to toss the Yan army and consume them." From now on, all the departments are staring at the back of the Yan army, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I disturb, and does not give the enemy a chance to obtain grain and grass, I see how long he can hold out Mengshanming!"

Someone tried to ask, "Who will keep an eye on Zhang Hu's people?"

Everyone understood what he meant, Zhang Hu's men and horses had actually become the Chinese army of the Yan army's eastward advance, and Meng Shanming was over there.

In two battles in a row, this side has already learned how powerful Meng Shanming is, and it is somewhat timid to stare at Meng Shanming.

Wu Qunlie's cheeks tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "My headquarters will personally go to watch it, I don't believe that something can happen like this." Inform all departments, spread spies, keep an eye on the movements of all the centaurs of their respective targets, keep a distance from their targets, and beware of being lured into a trap!"

Not only for the arrangement of Jiangfang's people, for the sake of safety, Luo Zhao persuaded the three major factions, and the Song Emperor's support for this righteous son was also quite strong, and under the criticism and pressure of the court, the Song State began to implement another strategy of Luo Zhao.

After calculating the maximum service life of the Yan army's grain and grass, the people in the cities and villages within a certain range of the war zone forcibly moved and retreated, removed all the food, and destroyed all the crops, preferring to cause considerable losses to the Song State, and also made up their minds not to leave a single grain for the Yan army!

For a time, I don't know how many people were forced to leave their hometowns crying and crying, and many people were not rich people, so they guarded some crops in the field to live, and after leaving here, food and housing became a problem, and the future days can be imagined.

But there is no way, under the general trend, these ordinary people can't call the shots!

......

The Yan army has crossed the river and entered the territory of the Song Kingdom.

At the same time, the abnormal situation on the Song Kingdom's side was also quickly learned by Meng Shanming's side.

In such a big battle, both sides have to send a large number of spies to each other, and it is impossible for such a huge anomaly to hide from the ears and eyes of the spies.

Song Guojiang defended the tailgating and harassment of the people, and then contacted the people to retreat on a large scale, making it clear that he wanted to consume the Yan army.

News from all walks of life came that the situation was not good, the atmosphere in the Chinese army's tent was a little heavy, and the Song army was trying to consume the Yan army to death, but it pinched the soft underbelly of the Yan army.

"Luo Zhao has changed his strategy, this kid is not confused!" Meng Shanming stared at the map and slowly bowed his head.

Before, the other party made it clear that he wanted to concentrate superior forces to attack this side, but now the Jiangfang people and horses have scattered to harass several people and horses on this side.

Zhang Hu said: "Dashuai, although we have grabbed some food, even if we drink it in normal times and eat it dry in wartime, we won't be able to last long." ”

"Stand down, let me be quiet. Meng Shanming turned his back and waved his hand at everyone.

Everyone looked at each other and exited the tent one after another, leaving the master and apprentice in the tent.

The tea was boiling, and Luo Da'an walked aside to pour tea and water.

Meng Shanming suddenly asked, "Da'an, you have been with me for a long time, Luo Zhao is also your family, and they are all surnamed Luo, Luo Zhao has changed his strategy, what do you think?"

Coming over with tea, Luo Da'an, who had just put down the teacup, was stunned, slowly straightened up, and looked at Meng Shanming's reaction, "Master already has the answer in his heart." ”

Meng Shan sighed, "You see I'm useless, let's hear the answer." ”

Luo Da'an turned his head to look at the map: "No matter how Luo Zhao's strategy changes, it is useless, as long as the Jiangfang people are still entangled with us, it will be difficult to escape the master's preparation for implementation, the only difference is that it is a lot of trouble, but as long as the people and horses are deployed properly, the result will not change much." There is also a place for the decisive battle, I am afraid that it will be another choice, and the opponent's method has changed, and the original place for the decisive battle is no longer suitable. ”

Meng Shanming, "Then help me find the most suitable place." ”

"Uh... Master, I..." Luo Da'an wanted to say something, but Meng Shanming interrupted him with a "coming" voice.

A guard outside entered and pushed him out at the signal of Meng Shanming.

Luo Da'an was left alone in the tent, he was stunned for a while, and finally walked to the map to take a closer look.

Outside the tent, a group of people were discussing, and when they saw Meng Shanming coming out, they immediately greeted him.

Zhang Hu asked, "Dashuai, is there a countermeasure?"

Meng Shan said: "Countermeasures Da'an is thinking inside, I'm old and my energy is low, so I'll hand over the next battle to Da'an to command." ”
