Chapter 819: King of the East Sea
Chapter 821
Li Xing used Luofeng City as a whetstone, and his team took turns to attack the city, day after day, like thunder and rainstorm, bringing huge pressure to Luofeng City.
Luofeng City is too small, especially compared to Yangzhou, which is so rich.
Faced with this situation, Chu Yunsheng was worried, Qi Jiguang could not sleep and eat, and the city was in trouble from top to bottom.
In contrast, Li Xingzai actually behaved quite calmly. Eating well and sleeping well every day, he doesn't seem to realize that there is a knife on his head and that it will fall at any moment.
His composure invisibly played a role in calming the morale of the army. Everyone thought that the King of Freedom had a strange strategy to deal with the Yangzhou soldiers, and the situation in front of him was not so bad.
In fact, no.
The key is that Li Xingya has experienced too much, and the six princes of the high-ranking empire have become beggars, and they also tried to turn the tide, but they were defeated. has been a bandit, a pirate, and was manipulated into a puppet by Cui Xiang, and everything he says and does has to be arranged......
It's not that the situation isn't bad enough, it's that it's nothing compared to what I've experienced.
When something happens, it's just a matter of catching up, and there's nothing else you can do.
In the palace hall, Li Xingzai and Chu Yunsheng gathered together to discuss matters. In the face of the situation in front of them, no one can keep up their spirits.
Chu Yunsheng opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan, maybe I can withdraw from the army?"
"Oh, there is still a way to do it now, the military advisor deserves to be a military advisor, tell me quickly, what is the method?"
Chu Yunsheng sighed helplessly, and then said slowly: "At present, Li Xing's intention is obvious, which is to use me to train in Fengcheng. In the long run, it is impossible for Luofeng City to hold on. But their teams can be rotated, but there is only one way to transport grain. If we can cut off their food routes, the Yangzhou soldiers will collapse without a fight. ”
Chu Yunsheng should not have planned this matter for a day or two, and now the whole person looks a little haggard.
"According to the information obtained, Yangzhou is transporting grain by water, and the grain and grass are currently hoarded in Liuping Lake. Send an elite army out of the city, take the waterway to attack Liubao Lake, burn the grain and grass of Yangzhou soldiers, and the enemy will naturally retreat. ”
Xu Wentian immediately stood up, clasped his fists in both hands and said: "Your Majesty, your subordinates are willing to lead the troops, and they will definitely destroy the place where Yangzhou soldiers are hoarding grain in Liuping Lake." ”
Xu Wentian had just followed Li Xingya's side for a short time, and he was in a hurry to perform and seek an opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
Li Xingzai waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down first. Looking at Chu Yunsheng, he asked, "Where did the information come from, is it credible?"
Chu Yunsheng said: "The king can rest assured that the information was learned from the mouths of the captives, and his subordinates interrogated several batches of prisoners, and they all said that Li Xing was hoarding grain in Liubao Lake. ”
Li Xingzai shook his head and said, "Retrial and ask again, we must confirm this news." ”
Chu Yunsheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Does the king notice that this information is false?"
Li Xingzai shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't know if it's true or not, but we can't afford to gamble now." Guarding Luofeng City can still support a few days, once the troops are dispatched and the enemy is ambushed, it will be the end of the destruction of the city. ”
Chu Yunsheng was silent, Li Xingzai's words were not unreasonable, and the current Luofeng City really did not have the qualifications to take risks.
Qi Jiguang opened his mouth and replied: "But this is the current situation, if we don't take risks, we will be slowly consumed by Li Xing, I'm afraid we won't even be able to survive this winter." ”
Everyone in the hall looked at each other, and they all felt the difficulty of the current situation.
"It's not impossible. Li Xingzai suddenly snorted and took out a letter from his arms: "Guess what this is, handed it over by the King of the East China Sea?"
The geographical location of Luofeng City is awkward, and it is at the junction of Yangzhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou. The forces around him include the king of Yanzhou, the king of Xuzhou, and Li Xing, the first emperor of the southern kingdom. However, there is more than one king of Xuzhou in Xuzhou.
There is also the King of the East China Sea.
The fiefdom of the King of the East Sea was not on land, but in the sea. Three hundred miles offshore, there is an island, called Qipan Island.
The origin of this king of the East China Sea is actually very strange, he was born in the military, specialized in pirates, and later became a merchant, and after the goods were robbed at sea, he turned into a pirate.
From a small pirate to a big pirate, relying on the relationship when he was in the army and the gold and silver he stole as a pirate, he was recruited by the imperial court and became a prince at sea.
In fact, he and the imperial court also took what they needed, and the imperial court gave him the honor of honoring his ancestors, and he would not go ashore to harass the town.
Li Xingzai is messing around in the East China Sea, and he will not have heard of this king of the East China Sea. Li Xingzai once had friction with the King of the East China Sea when he swept away the thieves on the sea, but the two sides had their own scruples, so they didn't make a move.
However, the relationship between the two sides is really not very good.
Chu Yunsheng frowned in confusion and said, "What is the intention of the King of the East China Sea to send the letter here at this time, is it to take advantage of the fire to rob, or is he willing to support us?"
"It's not taking advantage of the fire, it's supporting. Li Xingzai affirmed.
Qi Jiguang frowned: "Sending charcoal in the snow, how can the King of the East China Sea have such kindness?"
"Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Chu Yunsheng also said: "Even if it is an alliance, the two sides are afraid that it will be difficult to trust each other." ”
"Of course, it is not a casual alliance. Li Xingzai said: "The other party is willing to form a marriage with us." ”
Li Wan'er sat silently, and frowned slightly when she heard this.
Chu Yunsheng and the others didn't dare to look at her. It is said that the king of the East China Sea is already old, about fifty or sixty years old, if he is a talented woman, he is naturally not a good match, but he has never been a beautiful woman with a hero, so it may not insult Li Wan'er.
Li Xingzai leaned on the Taishi chair and waved his hand, and said to Li Wan'er: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's not you." ”
Li Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt a little confused in her heart: who would it be if it wasn't herself?
Could it be the Jade Sparrow...... The jade finch was born coquettish, and it was nothing for the princes to give each other women. However, exchanging a woman for peace is always a shameful thing.
Li Xingya gave a thumbs up and pointed at himself: "It's me." ”
"Uh......"
Everyone's eyes widened, and the expressions on their faces became strange: should the dignified King endure humiliation to such an extent?
Li Xingzai felt a chill and waved his hand again: "I want to do it, it's not the king of the East China Sea who wants to marry me, but Wang Sunli." ”
Li Xingzai added: "The king of the East China Sea is dead. ”
Wang Sun Lifu's surname is Wang Sun, her single name is a glass character, her identity is the identity of the king of the East China Sea, and her profession is a pirate leader.
The king of the East China Sea has a strange background, and Wang Sunli has surpassed it. When the king of the East China Sea was still a merchant running a boat on the sea, Wang Sunli had already done a lot of evil at sea.
She had been with four men, or four men had been with him. If this family business becomes ......
Lee Xingya is the fifth.
