Chapter 573: Gao An in an unfavorable situation (2)

Views:

Nangong Xiong, who was supported by Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi, just happened to hear Xia Cheng's words, and couldn't help but spout another mouthful of blood. He gritted his teeth and stared at Xia Cheng's back and said, "Xia Cheng! Today's revenge, I will avenge it. It."

However, Xia Cheng couldn't hear Nangong Xiong's oath anymore. He returned to the front of Xia Cheng to start killing. The long-handled Mo knife in his hand was like a magic weapon for life. The soldiers of Liu Jiajun died when touched. Died. Under the leadership of Xia Cheng, the passage that had been blocked before was opened up by Xia Cheng in a blink of an eye.

It’s just that Xia Cheng is great, and the Gao Jiajun soldiers who followed Xia Cheng are not so capable. When Xia Cheng finally rushed out of Liu Jiajun’s barracks, he looked back and found that there were only more than 300 Gao Jiajun soldiers he brought out. People.

Feeling that he had failed in the attack this time, and his face was lost, Xia Cheng also had a stern face, and after meeting up with more than 300 soldiers from the Gaojia Army and Xia Wu's soldiers and horses, he fled directly towards Guixi City. After Liu Jiajun pursued for a while, he retreated consciously, so Xia Cheng's soldiers and horses also returned to the city peacefully. Although the attack on the camp did not achieve the pre-determined effect, but the enemy's ambush only lost more than two thousand people, which is already considered a blessing in misfortune.

Three days later, in Jianzhou on Fujian Road, the war reports from Shao Wujun and Guixi had been delivered to Gao An's hands. Looking at the two war reports in his hands, Gao An couldn't help but frown. Sitting below, there are Tong Wenbo, who is now leaning on Gao's like a right-hand man, and a team of Fujian Lu Wenchen generals.

Gao An read the battle report again, took a deep breath, raised his head, and said to everyone who sat down: "Now Peng You and Liu Tong are attacking at the same time. How can you retreat from the enemy?"

"This..." Hearing Gao An raised this question, everyone in the room couldn't tell why. Seeing everyone's appearance, Gao An was also annoyed, but he did not dare to vent it. Gao An has not been in charge of Fujian Road for a long time, and he has not yet established a foothold on Fujian Road. He should not offend these subordinates who represent Fujian Road officials too much. In the end, Gao An can only use his eyes for help to turn to his most trusted child. Wenbo.

Seeing Gao An's gaze turned, Tong Wenbo was also suffering from headaches. His talent is good, but it does not mean that he can solve all problems. As the saying goes, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. At the moment Gao An's strength is too poor. Even if he is alone against Peng You or Liu Tong, Gao An is not sure of winning, let alone facing both Peng You and Liu Tong now. Tong Wenbo lowered his head to think for a moment, then raised his head and asked: "My lord, what's going on with Chen Yuanlong?"

The Chen Yuanlong in Tong Wenbo's mouth refers to Chen Yuanlong, the son of the Chen family in Fujian Road. At this moment, the head of the family, Chen Xiuping, has already returned home because of his age. Chen Yuanlong succeeded Chen Xiuping and became the leader of the Chen family in Fujian Road's officialdom.

Earlier, Tong Wenbo suggested to Gao An that the only way to prevent Peng You and Liu Tong’s attacks was to contact Xia Cheng, so Gao An sent Chen Yuanlong to Raozhou to contact Xia Cheng, hoping to form an alliance with Xia Cheng. Confront Peng You and Liu Tong. More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and now Peng You and Liu Tong are really sending soldiers to commit the crime, but Chen Yuanlong has no news at all, which makes Tong Wenbo also a little anxious.

Hearing Tong Wenbo's question, Gao An also understood what Tong Wenbo meant. He could only shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Yuanlong also sent a message before saying that he has been received by Xia Cheng. It's just that. Xia Cheng did not give a clear answer to the alliance, so Yuanlong had to stay in Shangrao."

After listening to Gao An's words, Tong Wenbo's face became more solemn. Of course, Tong Wenbo could see what the news meant. Obviously Xia Cheng did not intend to help Gao An against Peng You and Liu Tong.

That's right. After the First World War in Xianning, Xia Cheng should have suffered the most. After all, Xia Cheng is the leader of the alliance. The coalition forces were formed in mighty force, but they were not won in a battle. For Xia Cheng, this invisible loss was the most terrible. Therefore, in the face of Peng Youjun's pressing force, he gave up a large area of land and instead attacked the weaker Zhejiang West Road. And gave some of the conflicting sites to Gao An, a greedy ghost. And now, Xia Cheng must be focused on recovering his losses, and absolutely dare not participate in the battle between Gao An, Peng You, and Liu Tong without authorization.

If this is the case, then it will be troublesome. Gao An's strength is the weakest among all the princes. Without Xia Cheng's help, Gao An could never stop Peng You and Liu Tong's offensive.

After thinking about it for a while, Tong Wenbo raised his head and said to Gao An: "My lord. It's better to write a letter to Shangrao with a clear interest, and let Yuanlong pass it to Xia Cheng to see if he can persuade him. Xia Cheng sent troops. After all, Xia Cheng's strength is now greatly damaged. If the adults are eliminated by Peng You and Liu Tong, then Xia Cheng himself will be the next goal."

"Yeah." Gao An nodded after hearing Tong Wenbo say so. Immediately afterwards, without saying anything, he spread a **** silk on the low table in front of him, and directly wrote a secret letter on the silk according to Tong Wenbo's meaning. After drying the ink, Gao An immediately recruited a soldier, handed the secret letter to the soldier, and sent the messenger below to Shangrao.

Although he saw Gao An did what he said, Tong Wenbo's face did not improve. He himself didn't know how useful this secret letter could be. It seems that he can't count on Xia Cheng's reinforcements for the time being. . Tong Wenbo squinted his eyes and thought slightly. After a long time, Tong Wenbo said: "My lord. Although Peng You has many soldiers and horses, most of his men are cavalry. For such cavalry, Shao Wu's army has a general. As well as my brothers and others stationed, it should be no big problem. On the contrary, although Guixi is guarded by General Xia Cheng, there are too many capable people and strangers under Liu Tong. It is better to let his subordinates go to Guixi in person to assist General Xia Cheng to guard city."

Gao An was a little surprised by Tong Wenbo's advice. He thought that Tong Wenbo would go to Shao Wujun to help Wang Xiong first, but he did not expect that Tong Wenbo would choose to help Xia Cheng. From Gao An's point of view, Xia Cheng is both civil and military, cautious, and more trustworthy than Wang Xiong.

And when Tong Wenbo saw Gao An's expression, he knew what Gao An's doubts were. Dangyan explained: "My lord. Although Peng You has many soldiers and horses, there are very few famous generals and superhuman advisers.

There are generals like General Wang in the Shaowu Army, and there are elder brothers who make suggestions. It may not be easy to defeat the enemy, but it is not a problem to defend the Shaowu Army. On the contrary, Liu Tongshou has Zhao Guang, Bai Hexing and other advisers, and Wu has military generals such as Nangong Xiong and Huizhong, which are really difficult to deal with. Although General Xia Cheng was powerful, he was arrogant. He was afraid that he would be tricked by the enemy, so his subordinates must assist General Xia Cheng in his actions. "

With Tong Wenbo's explanation, Gao An understood it, and Dang even nodded.

At this time, Gao An glanced at a group of subordinates. Except for a few old subordinates who had been with him for many years, the subordinates who had returned from Fujian Road all had their heads lowered and said nothing.

Seeing this scene, Gao An’s eyes flashed a killing intent immediately, but in the end he endured it, nodded and said to Tong Wenbo: “Sir, you will leave this to your own arrangements. Then if Guixi City is I really can’t keep it, and my husband doesn’t have to keep it. I can see the gains and losses of a city."

Gao An was worried that Tongwen Expo would be relentless, knowing that he couldn't do anything, but still defending Guixi. Compared to the time when there was no kid's blog, I was often calculated. The current Gao An has tasted the benefits of having top counselors. If anything unexpected happens to this Tong Wenbo, Gao An really doesn't know what to do.

Although temporary arrangements were made, Gao An's heart was still irritated. After briefly handling some trivial matters, Gao An waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse.

Gao An rushed to the study in the backyard by himself and looked at the soldier guarding at the entrance of the study. Gao An had a sullen face and made a gesture to the soldier. The soldier had followed Gao An for many years, so naturally he understood the meaning of Gao An's gesture. When Even with the subordinates around him, he scattered away, and in a blink of an eye, he surrounded the entire backyard.

Gao An walked slowly to the door of the study, but did not rush in, but took a deep breath, slowly dissipating the solemn expression on his face, but replaced it with a smiling face.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his expression, Gao An opened the door and walked straight in. I saw in the study room, but Gao An was not alone, there was also a man in an official robe sitting in the center of the study room, holding a scroll in one hand and tea in the other, reading a book and drinking tea, life is so leisurely what.

Seeing Gao An coming in, the man didn't look too surprised. Instead, he smiled faintly, put down the scroll and tea cup in his hand, stood up and bowed to Gao An, and said with a smile: "I've seen the road to Fujian below. Make."

Gao An smiled back to the man and said, "Sir, you are polite. When the previous husband came, Gao An was discussing important matters with the army central subordinates, so he didn't come to see him in time. Please forgive me."
