How about a taster or two?" He said, quietly winking at Liu Muzhi.
Liu Muzhi smiled and patted his belly: "I wish you all the best!"
When the two of them walked forward and backward into the garden behind the screen of the Governor's Hall, Xie Yan stopped and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, get out."
After a burst of noise among the flowers and trees, the garden was really empty. Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Yanshuai's intelligence skills are getting better and better. Even I didn't notice that your shadow guards were hiding just now.
where."
Xie Yan said coldly: "I can't help it. There are many bandits in Wu, so I have to take more precautions. Now there are no outsiders here. What do you think of my commander's arrangement just now?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Very good, let Liu Qianzhi lead the Su Guards to attack the enemy's vanguard. There is no problem with the tactics. If the attack is unfavorable, we can also buy time to evacuate. Yanshuai, don't waste any more time now."
It's time to evacuate the people in the city. It's already too late. Order all your troops and horses to leave the city immediately. If Liu Qianzhi's battle goes well, he will hold the Xingpu area and wait for troops from all over the country to return for reinforcements. If Liu Qianzhi's battle is unfavorable, then rush northward.
Get closer to Liu Yu."
Xie Yan gritted his teeth: "Shanyin City cannot be defended, but I have no reason to be afraid of monster thieves in the field. Some of my subordinates are former Beifu troops, and others are brave and ruthless people from the Huaibei area. Let me recruit and fight against them.
We have been training for a long time. Although they are not as elite as the Beifu Army, they are still first-class troops. Although there are many monsters and thieves, they are mostly ragtag troops. As long as we defend according to danger and I have a thousand elite cavalry, we can still do it.
Fight and win."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Yanshuai, now is not the time to be angry, and we cannot afford to lose this battle. You are our Xie family's last hope. If you make another mistake, the entire Jin family will be destroyed."
, will no longer exist. Keep your current strength and fight back later. Wu land is still yours."
Xie Yan said angrily: "If I retreat this time, it will be like telling everyone in the world that I, Xie Yan, our family in the Jin Dynasty cannot even deal with a monster thief. Even if we fight back with the power of the Beifu Army, we will not be able to fight back."
His face was disgraced, and Wang Ningzhi would rather use ghost soldiers than retreat, which is the same reason. Now that the Wang family is finished, what retreat does our Xie family have? Mu Zhi, you were promoted by our Xie family, and your Excellency Xian Gong admired you very much back then.
Your talent makes me look for opportunities to reuse you, so don’t let me down."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "Then what does Yan Shuai want me to do?"
Xie Yan said sternly: "I will use the Xingpu area to block the monster thieves and prevent them from crossing the river. You quickly return to the capital and ask Miaoyin, who is now the queen, oh, no, it should be God's love, and please ask Madam to use it."
All the connections allowed the DPRK to send reinforcements quickly. This time I collected a lot of food and grass from various places, which is enough for the reinforcements for half a year. You just need to tell your wife that if you send troops to Kuaiji, you will have food to eat. There is no need to waste time raising food and grass. Understand
?"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Since Commander Yan still asks for reinforcements, why not move closer to the Beifu Army now? What is the difference between this and my proposal just now?"
Xie Yan waved his hand: "It's different. If I retreat, it means that I can't hold Kuaiji and I have to rely on the strength of others to fight back. But if I withstand it here, then if others come to help, it doesn't mean that I can't stop it." The order of living monsters cannot be reversed. Mu Zhi, this time you are coming from Liu Yu's Wuzhuang. Tell me the truth. Did he not have a satisfactory life in the Beifu Army and was driven by Liu Laozhi? Did you come out to look at the warehouse?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, the last time you and Liu Laozhi had a fight, Liu Yu and Liu Yu refused to help each other, which angered Liu Laozhi and drove him to Wuzhuang. However, he surrendered Shen Mu there. Many of my husband’s disciples, including refugees and local tyrants who had hid in the mountains, have been pardoned and have come out to join him and Yuan Song, the national historian of Wu.”
Xie Yan gritted his teeth: "Then how many soldiers and horses does he have now? Does he have two thousand people?"
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "About that. Originally he only had a few hundred old and weak soldiers, but he relied on a lot of refugees who came to him, such as the servants of Shen's Five Tigers and others. Now he has more than a thousand people and equipment. It’s okay, why, Yan Shuai hopes Liu Yu will come back to help?”
Xie Yan sighed: "Although I have always hated this person, but no matter what, he still has the ability to fight. This time the demon thief comes, it is related to the life and death of Wu. When you return to Beijing, please be sure to go Wuzhuang once treated Liu Yuxiao with great righteousness and told him that he was not here to help me, but to save the people he had always said he wanted to protect, do you understand?"
Liu Muzhi said sternly: "Jinnu has had this intention for a long time, just because there is no formal document asking for help. If he sends troops, he will be leaving his post without authorization. I am afraid that Liu Laozhi will be dealt with under military law in the future. If Commander Yan wants him to come for help, We still need a formal military order."
Xie Yan gritted his teeth, took out a token from his arms, and handed it to Liu Muzhi: "This is the gold medal that the emperor's brother Sima Dewen bestowed on me in the name of His Majesty before I left. Sir, you can act cheaply. I asked you to have a secret conversation here, just because I don’t want others to see me giving you this card to adjust Liu Yu. Do you understand?"
Liu Muzhi laughed: "Then Commander Yan must abide by our agreement, stick to the Xingpu area, guard the ferry, and do not cross the river to pursue casually. Liu Yu will come to support within three days, and the army will arrive within ten days. That’s the day when this demon-thief rebellion will be completely quelled!”
Xie Yan turned around and walked towards the front hall without looking back: "Then you should leave quickly. There should be some delicious dry food in the kitchen. Take it with you to eat on the road, but I don't have time to keep you eating here. Feast!"
Liu Muzhi watched Xie Yan's back disappear at the garden gate, and murmured: "Seafood rice, it's so delicious, but dear Yanshuai, how many chances do you have to eat it?"
Xingpu, South Bank, Xu Daofu is stationed on a hill, with a rock-like face and bright eyes, looking at the two pontoon bridges set up on the river and more than a thousand people running across the pontoon bridge. The swordsman in light armor looked thoughtful.
Lu Xun, dressed in a Taoist robe, stood side by side with Xu Daofu and said with a smile: "Third brother, the general altar guards you trained are really amazing. In one day, they marched more than 200 miles, from Gankou to here.
, Shanyin City is right in front of you, do you think Xie Yan will abandon the defense? "
Xu Daofu shook his head: "He will not defend or leave, but will lead the crowd to fight. Now our large army has not kept up. We only rely on lightly armored swordsmen, and it is difficult to resist his main force of infantry and cavalry.
Send the order, the whole army will retreat and camp on the south bank, I will drag Xie Yan here!"
