Rong Suihe didn't answer but asked instead: "If you were Sai Li, would you have any doubts about Da Mu Chaotang's disregard of urgent matters in Western Xinjiang?"
"Sai Li is an important person in Ruru. If he knows everything about the situation of the upper echelon of our country, he must have heard about it." Xu Lianshan said without thinking, "I, my country, are so stupid today that I have ignored the government affairs for decades. Is it possible that the king of Gaomi and the Meng family, who are entrusted with state affairs, are constantly fighting each other and ignoring the overall situation? "
"You should think from your own standpoint, not Sai Li's thoughts." Rong Suihe shook his head after hearing this, "Se Li is the commander-in-chief of Damu's enemy country. Just like if we imagine that Ruru is up and down, first of all, he will not Thinking that they will be kind, tolerant and friendly, he speculates that we will also start from the most vicious and insidious angle!"
"So if Gu is Seri, Gu will think that the so-called emperor Mu is stupid, the courtiers are infighting, and he ignores Yizhou and falls into a tight siege. These are all smoke screens thrown by Da Mu to lure the enemy deeper. Because if nothing else, let's just say Gu As the legitimate son of King Gaomi, how could Sai Li believe that the court would give up on him so easily?!"
"So even if we didn't let the Southern Xinjiang army show up no matter how difficult it was when we were defending the city, Seri would still suspect that once we go deep into Western Xinjiang, there must be a trap!"
"In this case, not to mention whether we can still lead him into the Southern Xinjiang Army's ambush circle, even if we can, there are still two problems to be solved: First, the Southern Xinjiang Army has only one hundred thousand string control men on standby in Western Xinjiang. , but Seri still has 200,000 troops under his command! With such a disparity in numbers, even if the battlefield is chosen in the dense forests and valleys in the southwest, it is difficult to guarantee victory!"
"Second, Seli's men are almost all cavalry. If they can't be defeated, they can run away. Even in the forest where the speed of the cavalry will be limited to the greatest extent, can we catch up?"
"Now the Northern Xinjiang Army has just arrived at this moment. It can not only solve these two problems, but most importantly, dispel Seli's suspicion and make him think that Da Mu Chaotang's response, or our trump card, is The Northern Xinjiang Army rushes for reinforcements!"
He clicked on the map laid out on the desk in front of him, "Although the Southern Xinjiang Army has never attracted attention, according to common sense, after we evacuate Yizhou, the most likely retreat directions are Chang'an and Northern Xinjiang. Because there is the Forbidden Army in Chang'an and the Northern Xinjiang Army in Northern Xinjiang. Only these two places have armies that can match Ruru, which is the best choice after defeat! Retreating in other directions will either make people feel confused or suspicious. .”
"In order to give full play to the greatest advantage of the Southern Xinjiang Army, weaken Ruru's strengths, and ensure that the lurking of a hundred thousand troops is not discovered in advance, the Southern Xinjiang Army's ambush circle must be set up in the southwest corner."
"So before the Northern Xinjiang Army comes, we have to lure Seli to the southwest corner without any suspicion. It is very laborious and difficult to succeed."
"but now… "
The young prince smiled and said, "Seli will help us solve this problem himself!"
After all, how could Sai Li, who was determined to win and atone for his sins, give Rong Suihe and Cao An a chance to reunite
As long as he sends the vanguard troops to harass Rong Suihe, Rong Suihe will naturally give him enough reasons to be "forced" to flee to the southwest!
Since the road used by the Southern Xinjiang Army to come to Western Xinjiang was temporarily opened using a secret path passed down from generation to generation by private salt dealers, it was still very confidential at this moment. Under normal circumstances, Seri would not have expected the ambush in the southwest. As long as Rong Sleeping He's acting is not too bad, it is logical that Prince Damu is defeated by Ruru's elite, unable to join Cao An, and is forced to flee further and further away from Cao An's tribe in a panic!
So what will Seri do
Naturally, he is in hot pursuit!
In this way... Xu Lianshan and others can imagine the scene where Seli ran into the encirclement and was immediately attacked by the Southern Xinjiang Army and the Northern Xinjiang Army!
"Although if we do this, Cao An's department will definitely have to share the credit, but with cooperation, the results will definitely be more fruitful... beheadings... seizures..." Everyone calculated quickly, "But we don't suffer a loss?"
If you're lucky, you might be able to capture a few of Ruru's important people, such as taking Sai Li to Chang'an as prisoners, etc. I'm really excited just thinking about it!
Seeing that one of his subordinates had calmed down, Rong Suihe smiled secretly and said, "Lianshan, since you asked for orders just now, the task of contacting Old General Cao this time will be left to you. What should we do? Do you understand?"
Xu Lianshan said solemnly: "Prince, please rest assured! My subordinates will do their best to die and convince the old general to cooperate with us as much as possible!"
"Old General Cao should not overwhelm the guest." Rong Suihe nodded and reminded, "He has no friendship with Gu. This rush to help Western Xinjiang is 100% due to General Huaihua's intention. Just like Lu Shiyu's department before. , since he came with the goodwill of General Huaihua, the coach will definitely not find trouble, otherwise he will come to enmity. I am afraid that the Northern Xinjiang Army is famous for its arrogant soldiers. Last time, Lu Shiyu’s troops came and went in a hurry, but they were still angry. That’s all. It’s unlikely that there will be young and energetic people under General Cao trying to measure your worth.”
"In addition to saving Zhou Quangu's face, don't overwhelm them, so as not to damage the relationship... After all, we still need them right now."
Xu Lianshan smiled and said: "Prince, what if my subordinates are not as skilled as others and cannot take care of your face?"
"Then I'll just say that you faked your identity. I don't have a useless subordinate like you at all. Let General Cao drag you out to enforce military law!" Rong Suihe laughed and scolded, "Go quickly! Otherwise General Cao will be eager to rescue you. Take the initiative to get closer to us before Sai Li can stop us... When the time comes and you pull the Northern Xinjiang Army into pretending to be defeated, where is the reason to go southwest? Do you still need your credit?!"
Because the credit was in sight, even though the war was about to begin, the camp was still relaxed.
However, two days later, Xu Lianshan sent someone to get the news from Cao An, but Rong Suihe stood up suddenly: "What?! Say it again!"
The messenger wiped cold sweat: "Old General Cao Cao Cao Cao said that the princess of the county... Although the princess has traveled a long way to northern Xinjiang, she seems to be in good spirits. Mrs. Feng, who is also traveling with her, is now living in General Huaihua. In the mansion, General Huaihua is watching personally, so you don’t have to worry about it!”
In fact, the messenger didn't know anything, so he wouldn't be so panicked.
The main reason was that Xu Lianshan, who had ordered him to deliver this message, felt as if the sky had fallen. The messenger who was so distraught that he was frightened to death and confused was also frightened.
Seeing Rong Suihe's reaction at this moment, he became more and more frightened, and said tremblingly, "Old General Cao also said... that he had invited the princess to the city to watch the battle. The princess had the spirit of the old man of the Sheng family, and... with... The prince is a perfect match!"
"..." Rong Suihe took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then asked, "Princess Princess, why did you go to Northern Xinjiang?! Are Wuyi Camp dead? Axi and Yishan, why are there never just Words and phrases were transmitted?! Where are they now? How are they doing?!"
The messenger wiped away cold sweat again: "According to General Cao, it was because the imperial court had been turning a blind eye to the urgent documents from Western Xinjiang. The princess was worried that Yizhou would be lost if it fought alone and defended it for a long time, so she went north in person and persuaded General Huaihua to rush to the aid of Western Xinjiang. Territory!"
He added, "As for the two people from Wuyi Camp... General Cao said they have been following the princess. General Cao especially admired the martial arts of Guard Sheng because..."
He hesitated for a while and then said cautiously, "Because when General Cao invited the princess to the city to watch the battle, Ruru attacked from below the city with the intention of shooting the princess! At that time, General Cao was unable to rescue him, and it was all thanks to the quick response of the guards Sheng. , two arrows in an instant, not only shot down Ruru’s sneak attack, but also wounded Ruru’s sneak attack!”
"For this reason, General Huaihua personally asked the princess about the marriage situation of Guard Sheng... General Cao... General Cao told Captain Xu in a joking tone that maybe General Huaihua intended to break the family and recruit Guard Sheng as his son-in-law..."
"Bang!" Before he could finish his words, Rong Suihe, who couldn't bear it anymore, slapped his palm on the desk in front of him, punching out four or five cracks in the inch-thick desk, which showed the anger in his heart!
"..." There was silence in the tent for a moment.
After a while, he asked in a cold voice: "So, since General Huaihua has decided to rush to the aid of Western Xinjiang, has the princess of the county made her way back to Chang'an?"
The messenger wanted to lower his head into his chest: "Old General Cao said that there are rumors in the army. It seems to be a prophecy from the Sheng family in Nanfeng County or something. Anyway, it is said that the princess will have good luck in giving birth in northern Xinjiang."
He was timid but also had a hint of secret expectation, "It is said that the fetus that the county princess is carrying this time... is unusual!"
"..." Rong Suihe's face turned livid, and he was silent again for a long time before he said harshly, "Give me the order, who dares to slack off in this battle and delay me from going to the northern border to meet the princess, I will skin him with my own hands!!!"
After thinking about it for a while, he still felt uneasy, so he asked the people around him, "Where are Master Wu and the others? Why haven't they been seen yet?"
The left and right reminded carefully: "Prince, have you forgotten? Master Wu said before that he was not worried about Mr. Leyang, so after he came back from the grassland, he followed Mr. Leyang to protect him secretly."
"Mr. Leyang's safety is well-measured, so there is no need for them to do anything extra!" Rong Suihe said impatiently, "The next step is to lure the enemy in depth to attack from behind, and there is no need for the female guards to charge forward! In this way, the order is passed, Let them set off immediately to Northern Xinjiang to protect the princess!"
... Half a day later, Master Wu was almost dumbfounded after receiving the order!
"Didn't we already decide to delay until the situation is stable?" A group of heroic girls looked at each other, "Why did the prince find out so quickly? Is there a traitor among us?!"
"Don't say such nonsense!" Mr. Wu quickly stopped such groundless speculation and said, "Maybe the people in Northern Xinjiang were worried, so they sent secret messages twice, but we only got one copy and returned one. Will the share end up in the hands of the county king?"
"Then what should we do now?" The female guards suddenly became nervous, "Does the county prince already know what we have done? Will he be angry?"
They are not afraid of Rong Suihe's punishment. In the final analysis, they are worried, "Will he drive us out of Wuyi Camp and stop taking us to play if anything dangerous happens in the future!?"
After saying this, Master Wu became worried. After thinking about it, he felt that it would be lenient to confess, so he said: "Although it is not clear from the order sent by the prince whether the prince knows that we have obtained a secret letter first, But the county prince has always been deep in the city, and maybe he knows everything. He deliberately didn’t say anything and waited to see if we would realize it? Otherwise, we should send someone back to explain to the county prince? Lest the county prince think that we have bad intentions, or maybe Are you not loyal enough to him?"
The female guards thought it was very reasonable, so they publicly selected the most articulate female companion as a representative and rushed overnight to find Rong Suihe to confess.
In fact, Rong Suihe, who didn’t know anything at all: “……………”
