Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Wuji, tell me, what is the composition of Huanxuan's 80,000 troops around Jiankang City?"

He Wuji froze on the spot. Suddenly, his eyes lit up: "Oh, why didn't I think of this problem? Out of the 80,000 people, at least 30,000 are the old troops of our Beifu Army."

Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, Huan Xuan came to Jiankang last time and had more than 100,000 troops. However, Jingzhou was unstable a while ago. His brother Huan Wei died of illness. As the new governor, his cousin Huan Shikang was not available for the time being.

When he took office, Yin Zhongkan's old subordinate Gengping from Nanyang raised troops, and Mao Chu from Yizhou also always opposed Huan Xuan. When the news of his usurping the throne spread, Mao Chu would definitely raise troops to attack. Therefore, Huan Huan last time

After Xuanrang Huan Zhen led 30,000 troops to defeat Sun En, he also brought this army back. In addition, in order to stabilize various places before proclaiming the emperor, he also sent 10,000 to 20,000 troops to disperse the various parties. Now Jiankang City is here

, Huanxuan brought back less than 40,000 troops from Jingzhou, and the others were the old troops of the Beifu Army, the Su Guards of the original capital, the surrendered troops of the Xifu of Yuzhou, etc."

He Wuji laughed: "In other words, the only ones Huan Xuan can really use and can fight are these 30,000 or so Jingzhou soldiers and horses, who are trustworthy and capable of fighting?"

Liu Yu said seriously: "Yes, if we were to confront our old brothers from the Shangbeifu Army, I would be sure that they would defect before the battle. Huan Xuan must also know this. This time we started an uprising, and all Jingkou responded immediately. I

The reason why he didn't set up an ambush or pursue Diao Hong just now was because Diao Hong and his men told Huan Xuan that Jingkou is now completely under my control. The Beifu Army in his hands and his family's property are all in my hands.

, If we really want to face each other, then he will become my man. In this way, Huan Xuan not only dare not use the more than 30,000 old Beifu Army troops, but also have to dedicate at least 10,000 troops to monitor them. He himself will not

There are less than 5,000 people to protect and control all parts of the capital, so the only ones he can really send out are more than 10,000 elite troops, most likely Wu Fuzhi and Huangfu Fu."

He Wuji frowned again: "But these two troops are all elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles. Not to mention the two generals Wu Fuzhi and Huangfu Fu, who followed Huan Chong in the north and south. Their subordinates

They are also the most elite warriors in Jingzhou. They have the best equipment and their combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of our Beifu Army. For many years, they have been training with the Beifu Army as their imaginary enemy. Last time at the Ximatai Fighting Field, we both fought.

If we don't take into account the aspect of Ah Shou taking medicine, our outcome is unpredictable. Although Jingkou is now under our control, it will take time to form an army, because although there are no less than 2,000 veterans here,

But reorganization and equipment will take time. Since Huan Xuan's troops are not as many as expected, we can use Jingkou as a base to fight steadily, and wait until Xi Le and the others succeed, then recruit more troops to fight a protracted war."

Liu Yu sighed: "Wuji, we can't delay it now. Only we senior generals know the analysis of Huan Xuan's military strength, but the righteous soldiers below don't know. They are now motivated by a moment of righteous indignation, or they are listening to

After what I said in my statement, I think Huan Xuan is really surrounded by enemies. We just need to work harder to succeed. Once we know that we are just alone along the way, I'm afraid many people will be shaken. When the Yi Ban is first established, what we want is this kind of indomitable progress.

With such momentum, even if we fight a protracted war here, we can only mobilize up to 10,000 troops. Huan Xuan can mobilize troops from all directions much faster than us. If he confronts us head on, guarding Jiang Cheng and Luo Luo Bridge, then we will

The army has lost its fighter planes and will no longer be able to pose a threat to Jiankang. At this time, he divides his troops and goes north around Liyang to capture Guangling and cut off our return north. Then we are really in a dead end."

He Wuji gritted his teeth: "Then what should we do? Do we really need to attack Jiankang with just one or two thousand people? That's crazy! Even if Huanxuan is only afraid of Wu Fuzhi and Huangfu Fu, he even only sends them

If we come alone, we will have no advantage. Once defeated, we will lose everything, and we will not even have a chance to escape to Jiangbei."

Liu Yu laughed loudly: "When we set up troops to establish righteousness, we have already put life and death at risk. We are fighting with this momentum of fearlessness. No matter how strong a soldier is, he will be frightened by this indomitable momentum. If Huan Xuan

If they take the initiative to shrink the defense line, stabilize the periphery of Jiankang, and stand in a stalemate with me across the Jiuxiang River and Jiangcheng area in Danyang, then we will have no chance. But they think that we have just established a righteous cause and have few soldiers, so our generals will definitely take the initiative to ask for a fight.

If Huanxuan cannot be banned, the generals will rush to us and they will definitely seize the opportunity for us. Once we kill his two most elite troops, Huanxuan will definitely be forced to dispatch the remaining ones out of fear.

The army even asked the Beifu Army to take the vanguard to deal with us. By then, the matter will be settled!"

As he spoke, he punched out hard, hitting the trunk of the big tree and sinking a two-inch hole. The whole tree shook violently, and the leaves fell one after another, covering Liu Yu and He Wuji.

All.

He Wuji nodded with satisfaction: "What you just said is profound in the art of war. In the art of war, it is indeed necessary to put oneself to death before resurrecting. Jinu, I will listen to you this time."

Liu Yu looked at He Wuji and stretched out his palm: "You and I are two of the three giants in the Jingba uprising. Only if we agree can everyone feel at ease. Wuji, at this time, I need your support.

"

He Wuji laughed, struck out with a palm, and made direct contact with Liu Yu's hand: "Then wait for the good news from Xile. If Guangling City is captured, we will have at least 800 more soldiers!

"

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "It is said that three thousand Yue Jia can swallow up Wu. Today, we want three thousand Jingba to destroy Huan Chu. We will write all this ourselves!"

Guangling, Mao hour, two quarters.

Outside the west city gate, more than a thousand fully armed soldiers, each carrying a bow and arrow, lined up on both sides of the city gate. More than a dozen civil and military officials riding tall horses were looking anxiously into the city gate, as if

Waiting for someone.

Liu Yi hurried over with more than fifty strong men dressed as hunters. He himself was wearing a tiger skin waist protector, which made him look particularly majestic. Liu Daogui walked side by side with him. Zhao Yi, Liu Fan,

Liu Cui and other close warriors followed closely behind. From a distance, he said to Captain Huan Hong's personal guard, Yang Biaozhi, who was riding a horse outside the city: "Captain Yang, is Huan Qingzhou not here yet?"

Yang Biaozhi shook his head: "The governor is still eating, he will soon..."

Liu Yi frowned: "Then Xiangrui showed up last night. He was late. I'm afraid he might run away. You'd better go and hurry him up."
