Chapter 155 Starry Night Return

On the tenth night of June, Xiao Tianjian finally returned to Lianhua Village with Luo Li, Tietou and others. At this time, Feng Gouzi, Liu Bao, Fu Deming and others also rushed back to Lianhua Village in advance, waiting for Xiao Tianjian's return.

This time, Xiao Tianjian returned to Yangcheng and did not bring back Yan Chongxi and Luo Li at the same time. Instead, he left Yan Chongxi's sentry general and a thousand new recruits led by Diao Zheng, as well as some artillery generals and a small number of scouts in the ancient town, which made Yan Chongxi temporarily stop the west to attack on the west of the ancient town and temporarily stop. The large-scale attack operation turned to the defensive situation, eliminate the hostile forces in the area east of Yuanqu County as soon as possible, rebuild the order there, and step up the training of the recruits recruited in ancient towns, so that they can cooperate with Yan Chongxi to form an effective combat effectiveness. This time, they brought artillery, birds, gunpowder, etc. Everything is also left to Yan Chongxi and Diao Zheng to enhance their strength.

As soon as Xiao Tianjian entered the Lotus Village, he immediately recruited the left-behind generals to the Juyi Hall and began to discuss the plan to resist the enemy. Feng Gouzi immediately got up and said to Xiao Tianjian, "General Qihua, since receiving the news, the number of officers and soldiers in Qinshui and Jiang County has increased significantly, and the dispatch of the surrounding officers and soldiers is very It's frequent. Outside the west mountain pass, there have been 2,000 officers and soldiers and villagers gathered, and they may enter the mountain at any time to invade the area under our control!

In the junction of the north of the county and Qinshui, a large number of officers and soldiers have also begun to work closely. Li Shuanzhu has captured more than a dozen officials trying to enter our jurisdiction. According to the detailed confession, Pingyang Prefecture has mobilized more than 1,000 officers and soldiers from Yicheng, Jiangzhou, Fushan and other places. In addition, Qinshui County has gathered. With nearly 3,000 officers and soldiers, they will attack our territory in the next two days!

Zezhou's official and military activities are also very frequent. They are preparing grain and gathering towards the east of Zezhou. According to the news, Taiyuan has sent more than 1,000 more officers and soldiers to Zezhou. In addition, Zezhou's local defenders and township braves, Zezhou may also send 3,000 soldiers and horses to us. In this way, there are three directions. The government has mobilized nearly 9,000 soldiers and horses in total, and it is clear that it intends to go hand in hand to level us down!

I'm afraid that if we deal with the officers and soldiers this time, I'm afraid it will be much more difficult than the last time! The inferiors are waiting for the general to come back to make an idea!"

Xiao Tianjian nodded and asked Feng Gouzi, "What is the composition of the troops when the officers and soldiers come to invade this time? Which direction is the strongest in the army?

Feng Gouzi thought for a moment and replied, "The government mainly uses the defenders of each state and county this time, but it's not very powerful!" Basically, half of them are still Xiang Yong. I'm afraid the strongest ones are the more powerful officers and soldiers in the direction of Zezhou. More than half of them are officers and soldiers transferred from the direction of Taiyuan, which should be stronger than the defenders of ordinary states and counties!

At present, the key is that our troops are insufficient, and we have to deal with the invasion of the officers and soldiers in three directions at the same time. We can't concentrate our forces to deal with it, or just say, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome this time!"

Xiao Tianjian frowned, nodded to let Feng Gouzi sit down, turned to deal with Deming and asked, "What Mr. Yifu saw, how should we deal with them this time?"

Fu Deming also frowned and got up and replied, "General, I'm afraid it's really a little troublesome this time!" According to the humble position, it is not a big problem for the west. Although the number of officers and soldiers exceeds that of Jiang Cheng's troops, the land Jiang Cheng defends is deep. Even if the officers and soldiers are large-scale invading, they should be able to stop them with Jiang Cheng's troops!

The key is still the Xihe Village area on the other side of Li sentry general. The terrain is not too dangerous, and the officers and soldiers have gathered nearly 3,000 soldiers and horses in Qinshui. Once they attack, I'm afraid that Li sentinel will only rely on the soldiers under his command, and it is difficult to stop the fierce attack of the officers and troops over there!

There is also the Zhao sentry general of Beiliu Village. Judging from the situation of Beiliu Village, if the officers and soldiers invade from Zezhou, it will be difficult for Zhao sentries to prevent the officers and soldiers from entering the north village!

But at present, we can't retreat from Lianhuazhai and Shuangfengzhai, because Xia Shou will start in a few days. Once the officers and soldiers are to enter our jurisdiction, we may be busy in vain in the first half of this year, and Xia Shou will definitely not be able to do it again! As far as our grain storage is concerned, it is only enough for our Xing Tianjun to support us for a few months. For the local people in Yangcheng, we can't support so many people after winter this year! So even if you retreat to the south of the county, you should at least support it until the end of the summer harvest!"

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian also felt a little big. The action taken by the government this time was completely beyond his expectation when he first sent to Yuanqu County. Originally, he wanted to use Yuanqu County to restrain the attention of the government to rescue Yuanqu County and create conditions for the summer harvest under the jurisdiction of Yangcheng County.

As a result, the government simply came to treat him in his own way. He simply did not care about Yuanqu County and directly transferred troops to invade Yangcheng again, so as to attack him and save him, so that he had to turn around to deal with the invading officers and soldiers who invaded Yangcheng, and he was also tied up because of the problem of summer harvest and fell into In a situation where there is no going forward or retreat.

So Xiao Tianjian closed his eyes and thought for a while. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes once again regained the firmness of the past. His frown just now also unfolded, and once again recovered into the previous expression that was not surprising.

When several men sitting in the hall saw the change of Xiao Tianjian's expression, they all realized that Xiao Tianjian must have thought of a way again, so their hearts were also relaxed, so they quickly looked at Xiao Tianjian eagerly.

He laughed and said, "It's not too troublesome about this. The soldiers come to block the water and cover the earth. The officers and soldiers have a lot of troops, but for our Xing Tianjun, they are just a group of mob! And this time they came in divided forces. No matter how many troops there are, in terms of the coordination ability of the officers and soldiers, it is impossible to succeed if they want to go hand in hand in three ways! We can give them a break and see what they have to do to force us to death!

What's more, the officers and soldiers are increasing the number of troops, and we are also increasing troops. In my opinion, the reason why the government came up with this method must be that I plundered Yuanqu this time was most of the main force I took away. I think that their troops are really empty now, so they use this kind of plan to force me to save, and want to take this opportunity to destroy our territory. Summer harvest!

Humph! It's beautiful. How could they expect that now we have opened up the connection between Yuanqu County and Yangcheng County, and our main force is not in Yuanqu County. If the officers and soldiers want to take this opportunity to give us a draw, then let them come!"

After listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, everyone felt reassured. In this matter, even Fu Deming felt very difficult, so everyone considered difficult problems, but did not consider their advantages. In the face of the invasion of officers and soldiers, although the actions of Yuanqu County involved part of Xing Tian. The strength of the army is also limited to Yan Chongxi, who is staying in Yuanqu County at present, and most of Xing Tianjun's strength is still in Yangcheng at present, which is probably not expected by the government.

And from the perspective of the government's action, they are involved in the defenders in many places. They want to combine so many scattered soldiers and attack Yangcheng together. Judging from the ability of the government to coordinate in the middle, it is difficult for them to achieve strict cooperation in three ways. The reason why Xiao Tianjian is confidently believes that Xing Tianjun can be transformed. Solving this crisis is based on this point.

After seeing that the faces of these men regained calm, Xiao Tianjian continued to say, "There must be a benefit and a disadvantage. Although the government has mobilized a lot of troops this time, it is not easy for the government to uniformly deploy these soldiers and horses. Feng Gouzi also said that the officers and soldiers violated our control from the third road this time. In the system area, people were not arranged to be dispatched in the middle. The officers and soldiers of Jiang County and Qinshui were dispatched by Pingyang Prefecture, but the Zezhou side has still been alone!

As long as they start to invade Yangcheng at the same time, there will be time for us to break them one by one. Although we can't concentrate all the soldiers, we can now concentrate two sentry soldiers in either direction, plus scouts and cavalry, and a thousand new recruits on Liu Bao's side. If necessary, gather a group of township troops, which is not necessarily less than the officers and soldiers. What's more, our Xingtian army soldiers are all experienced in a hundred battles. I dare not say that we can fight against the officers and soldiers, but at least one-on-one, we can win more than 80%!

What we are going to do now is to determine which direction to start first, so that the government can't march together, and then create conditions for us to break them one by one!

I'm afraid you still need Feng Gouzi to judge this matter. We should be the first to eat the best officers and soldiers!"

After listening to this, Feng Gouzi immediately felt a hundred times more confident. In the past few days, they were all very nervous and felt that Xiao Tianjian was not here. They seemed to have lost their backbone. After encountering such a thing, they were a little at a loss, but as soon as they saw Xiao Tianjian come back, the main heart was It's all back again.

Such a big thing, for Xiao Tianjian, seems to be like nothing. In a short time, he identified the advantages and disadvantages between the enemy and us, and came up with a way to deal with it. If he were an ordinary person, I'm afraid it would be difficult to deal with it so calmly.

So he got up and replied, "Judging from the humble position, I'm afraid the first one to do it first is the officers and army in Qinshui County. At present, although the officers and soldiers in Jiang County have been assembled, they have not dare to enter the mountains easily. On the other side of Zezhou, more than a thousand officers and soldiers transferred from Taiyuan should have just arrived in Zezhou. The army's laziness, even if it arrives in Zezhou, will inevitably take a few days, so at present, the biggest possibility is that the officers and soldiers in Qinshui will attack our jurisdiction before the other two officers and soldiers!"
