Chapter 74 The Times (1)

Chapter 74: Current Situation (Part 1)

"You want to occupy Qizhou City." Lu Deshan immediately misunderstood Wu Liangmou's meaning and was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly, "No, this is absolutely not possible, unless you have the ability to turn around and destroy Zhu Chongbayi."

"The key is that food, grass and ammunition cannot be self-sufficient. The chief executive cannot send enough civil servants to come." After hearing this, Liu Kui smiled and shook his head, not thinking that Wu Liangmou's "conception" could be realized.

In the eyes of the two of them, the Grand Chief Manager has a grand attitude and will never have a gap with everyone because the Fifth Army made some changes to his strategic goals. However, the territory of the Grand Chief Manager's Office has expanded too quickly in the past two years, but it is really a big trouble, short of money, food, soldiers and officials. Xu Sui and Huaiyang alone have already made everyone busy. However, there are Zhu Chongba and Peng Yingyu between Qizhou and Yangzhou, and everything has to be transported by water. Under so many unfavorable circumstances, this enclave is definitely a waste to the Grand Chief Manager's Office.

Wu Liangmou did not explain, quickly hid the true thoughts in his heart, smiled, and said with a lip, "I just think that I can't just take advantage of Xu Shouhui's corrupt bones, otherwise he would have to hand over Qizhou City to someone else when we left."

"Then try to find a way to prevent others from spying on Qizhou again." As long as Wu Liangmou did not intend to expel Xu Shouhui, Liu Kui would definitely be willing to help him solve his problems. "First teach him a lesson from the Yaharatulu and his son, and tell him that Xu Shouhui is our chief manager. Whoever dares to move Qizhou again will not give us the chief manager face."

He said something harshly, and the gangster leader was supporting his minions, but when Wu Liangmou and Lu Deshan heard it, their eyes lit up.

The Huaiyang General Administration Office has no strength to take Qizhou under his jurisdiction for the time being, but it has not been too much problem to support a puppet, so that he can only follow the leader of the General Administration Office. From this perspective, Xu Shouhui's greed for life and fear of death has become his advantage. Even if his ambitions are strong in the future, as long as the General Administration Office maintains sufficient military advantage for him, he will not dare to make any waves.

In addition, supporting Xu Shouhui did not completely violate the orders of the General Manager. After all, one of the strategic goals of the Huai'an army to send troops was to force Xu Shouhui to remove the imperial title, to be on par with other red scarves, and to jointly follow the "Gaoyou Agreement" as the standard.

"After all, Xu Shouhui is still the two nominal lords of Monk Peng and Zhao Pusheng. If we control him, Peng and Zhao, we will tie our hands and feet against the Huai'an army in the future. If we can allow Qizhou, Susong and Chizhou to advance and retreat together, we will be able to form a joint force against Zhu Chongba and send troops to take down his nest at any time." Seeing that Wu Liangmou and Lu Deshan did not express any objections, Liu Kui was greatly encouraged and continued to fantasize without any resoluteness.

"Peng Yingyu may not be so easy to deal with." Hearing his words more and more unreliable, Lu Deshan couldn't help but interrupt in a low voice, "Xu Shouhui could suppress Monk Peng and Ni Wenjun in the past because of his achievements in leading everyone to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty. Since becoming Emperor Tianwan, he has never done a serious thing. He just went to marry his wife and became a groom every day. He basically left all the government to Zou Pusheng, and conquered cities and territory outside, relying on Ni and Peng. Therefore, his prestige was already used to be very little left. In addition, this time he left the city, I'm afraid that there would not be many people in the southern school who would look down on him."

"Although Monk Peng sent Chen Youliang to help him, he did not send anyone to save him. It is obvious that he had already had the idea of ​​letting him, Emperor Tianwan, die on his own." Wu Liangmou also shook his head and added with a smile.

"At least, as long as Xu Shouhui does not die for a day, it will be difficult for Monk Peng to start a new mountain unless he also learns from Ni Wenjun and surrenders to the Mongols." Liu Kui immediately retreated to the next best.

"Although Monk Peng is very ambitious, he is a well-known man. He will never recognize the thief as his father like Ni Wenjun." Lu Deshan always admired Peng Yingyu, nodded, and agreed with a smile.

"Zhao Pusheng, Oupxiang and Ding Pulang are all students of Peng Yingyu. Peng Yingyu refused to raise an army to rebel Xu Shouhui, so the three of them would not act rashly."

"There is another Zou Pusheng, the Grand Tutor of Tianwan Dynasty, who is probably not an ungrateful person."

"So after all, the most important point will be on Xu Shouhui."

"We have to find him as soon as possible, so that this guy will not be frightened and run all the way to someone else's territory."

"He may not be willing to let go of Qizhou. With his current situation, he went to someone else's side and was still raised as a puppet. It would be better to just surrender to our chief executive, and at least he will not lose his position as Liang Gong in the future." (Note 1)

The three of them have been studying for many years, and their foundation is far stronger than their peers. They have been carefully trained and honed under Zhu Chongjiu's command. Therefore, no matter their skills and insights are now no longer under Feng Guoyong, Zhang Yi and other strategists. If you use a little thought, you will analyze the pros and cons of supporting Xu Shouhui as a puppet clearly.

The tradition of the Huai'an army has always been to be able to speak and do it. When it was determined that Xu Shouhui's tree was more beneficial to Huaiyang than its previous gaze, the three of them immediately decided to start implementing it. They first wrote a letter together and sent it back to the General Administration to explain the reasons for changing the strategic goals and the real situation facing Qizhou City. Then, while organizing troops to enter the city to take over the city walls, yamen, palaces and treasurys at all levels, they also scattered a large number of scouts to find the whereabouts of Xu Shouhui and the enemy.

The above matter is simple, but it is a lot of tricks to do it. It was not until the next day that the city of Qizhou was completely taken over by the Fifth Corps of Huai'an. Scouts who were sent to find Xu Shouhui and the enemy's traces also returned one after another.

"Mr. Xu is in Guangji now." Scout Company Commander Huang Shudu walked forward with sweat all over his head and reported loudly to Wu Liangmou, "Our people have contacted him, but he refuses to come back."

"Guangji." Wu Liangmou's brow jumped, and his eyes quickly swept to the map hanging on the wall behind him.

According to the sign on the map, Guangji is only about thirty miles away from Qizhou, and the cavalry can chase the city in half an hour. Emperor Tianwan ran for a whole night and finally ran out such a little road. His legs and feet are really slow.

"According to our brothers' reports, Xu Shouhui had only more than 400 guards, but his jewelry was fine and soft, so he pulled more than 60 carts, so he was destined to be unable to walk too fast. Being able to escape to Guangji overnight was already considered as doing his best." Huang Shudu's eyes were not very much looking at Emperor Tianwan, who had been fleeing before entering the city, shrugged and continued to add loudly.

"Then he said he had never said anything, what are his plans in the future?" Wu Liangmou smiled and continued to ask.

"I haven't said it, but he didn't seem to plan to run further away, so he squatted in Guangji City and closed the four doors." Huang Shudu's answer sounded very unexpected.

"I see, he is waiting for us to take action." The Fifth Army Commander Shi Lu Deshan quickly took over the conversation and reminded loudly, "He has made a promise that we will not attack him on his own initiative. With Qizhou City blocking in front, Yaharatulu and Ni Wenjun will not be able to attack Guangji for a while. As long as we can delay for a while, Peng Yingyu and Zhao Pusheng will have to send some more troops."

"Maybe, Zhu Chongba and Han Liner will also send people to pick up ready-made cheapness." Liu Kui glanced at the map and curled his lips disdainfully.

If the Huai'an army did not send troops, the surrounding princes would turn a blind eye to the danger of Qizhou, and no one would want to come and fight against the Yayabatulu. However, as soon as the Huai'an army arrived, they naturally became the main force in fighting against the Yuan army. If other red scarf princes sent people over, they would not suffer much losses, but instead took the opportunity to gain some reputation and actual benefits. Of course, what would you do if you don't do it?

"So the more people come here, the greater the choice, and the more rare it is." Lu Deshan took the conversation again and added with a sneer, "This person has a shorter understanding and his mind is not slow at all."

"That's right, at least, he has been an emperor." Wu Liangmou smiled and interrupted, his eyes gradually becoming cold. "Where did Yahachitulu and Ni Wenjun retreat to where they were? Have the scouts found out?"

"It has been investigated clearly." Huang Shudu responded without hesitation, "Yabadulu led his troops to Qishui. Ni Wenjun set his camp outside Qishui City. The two did not demolish the wooden bridge on Qihe River, and the road from Qizhou to Qishui was not damaged at all."

"It seems that these two guys are not convinced." Wu Liangmou sneered and shook his head, his eyes swept to the map behind him again.

Qizhou City was originally named Qichun, and it was about forty miles away from Qishui City. There were two rivers and rivers in the middle. If Yahadoulu was beaten to death last night, it would definitely destroy the roads and bridges to avoid being chased by the Huai'an army. His current approach is obviously to rectify the troops and be ready to kill them at any time to clean up the previous shame.

"Then let's hit them until they are convinced, just kill the chicken to warn the monkey." Liu Kui clenched his fists and said viciously, "Let those guys who want to take the opportunity to come and take advantage of it, think about whether they have enough teeth."

"Don't worry, there is still time." Wu Liangmou smiled and responded carefully, "Let's find a way to stabilize Xu Shouhui first, come and invite General Chen, General Zhang, and Master Zou to me."

"Yes." The soldiers agreed and trotted to ask Chen Youliang. Zhang Dingbian and Zou Pusheng. Soon, the three of them came together, their faces still looked exhausted, but their clothes and boots were cleaned up.

"I've seen General Wu." As soon as the three of them entered the door, they immediately stood up and bowed, "I will never forget my life-saving grace last night, and I will never forget it in this life."
