Chapter 1020 Persuasion

Yang Feng stretched out his hands and pressed down. When the generals saw this, they all stopped talking. The tent immediately calmed down. Yang Feng then said, "Okay, since the bandits are here, our army's food and grass have been replenished. Next, we should study how to deal with this bandit."

"Everyone comes and take a look."

Speaking of this, Yang Feng stood up and walked to the tent. Two personal soldiers next to him came over. One of them was holding a long scroll in his hand. The two walked to the middle of the tent and pulled the scroll apart in front of everyone.

This is a map of Henan Prefecture, which is two meters long. Whether it is mountains, rivers, official roads, and even villages and cities in various places are marked in very detailed. Although it is not as good as the high-definition military maps drawn by later generations with satellites and artificial paintings, it is already shocking in this era. This map was also drawn by Yang Feng earlier, just in case, just in case, it really came in handy today.

The generals went up to look at the clear map, and they were all amazed. Yang Feng picked up a small stick and pointed to a place and said, "Please look, this is Luoyang City where we are now, and this is Huaiqing Mansion.

After the bandits captured Huaiqing Prefecture, there were two roads. One was through Hanoi, Yangwu Prefecture, Xuanwu Prefecture and Kaifeng. The other was through Mengxian, Mengjin, and Henan Prefecture to attack Luoyang. I wonder which path do you think the bandits would take?"

"That's all right, I must attack Luoyang."

Gou Xingma said without hesitation."

"Although the bandits are known as 200,000, the elderly, weak, women and children account for at least half of the bandits' army. The remaining people are only over 30,000 or 40,000 at most. In this way, there are only a few people who can get into battle.

Our army of more than 20,000 people and horses chew, and even if they eat nearly 100,000 kilograms of grain every day, let alone bandits. As long as Gao Yingxiang is not confused, he will not leave Luoyang nearby, but instead attack Fengfu. You should know that the city of Kaifeng Prefecture is not worse than Luoyang, and it is not so easy for bandits to conquer it."

"Where are you thinking this way?"

The generals nodded one after another: "Mr. Master, the last general, and then, Kaifeng is six or seven hundred miles away from Huaiqing Mansion. After this journey, you have to pass through Wuling, Yuanwu, Xuanwu and other passes. They will not expect to reach the city of Kaifeng Mansion in less than two months, so Gao Yingxiang is not that stupid."

Yang Feng nodded with satisfaction: "Well... it's not bad, it seems that you have put your heart into it. Kaifeng is indeed too far from Huaiqing Mansion. There are too few mules and horses in the bandits, and they almost all rely on walking. It's not possible to hit Kaifeng Mansion with two legs in a few months. As long as he was not dizzy, Gao Yingxiang would definitely not go that way, so the rest would be to come to us!"

"Hahaha……"

All the generals laughed. If the bandits had attacked Luoyang before the Jiangning Army came, they might have had such a chance, but now the Jiangning Army has arrived, and Luoyang City is their tomb.

At this time, Song Ye quickly walked into the big tent: "Dude, Governor Yin, Lord Yue, Lord Lu and others are asking for a visit outside the camp!"

"oh……"

Yang Feng glanced at the generals and smiled, "Look, some people can't sit still more than us."

After saying that, he nodded and said, "Let them come in."

Soon, Yin Luzhong, Yue An and Lu Da, and more than a dozen gentry-like people walked in under the leadership of Song Ye.

As soon as he entered the door, Yin Luzhong said to Yang Feng: "Duke Xinguo, I believe you know the news of the fall of Huaiqing Mansion. Xiaguan came here this time to invite you to lead a large army into Luoyang City on behalf of hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang City."

Yang Fengqi said: "Live in Luoyang City? Why?"

Seeing Yang Feng asking, Yin Luzhong and Yue An, Lu Dayou and others behind him were nervous. He had already collected the money and wanted the food. Could it be that he planned to eat it all but refuse to admit it?

Lu Dayou quickly said: "Dude, now that Huaiqing Prefecture is lost, bandits are attacking, how can the Jiangning Army defend the city if it does not settle in?"

"Yes, Duke of the State, the situation is urgent now. The Jiangning Army will be familiar with the city defense one day earlier. If the bandits come, they will be prepared."

"Dude, if you still think that the food and salary are not enough, we can still mobilize the gentry to donate some more."

Several men around also spoke out and persuaded each other.

Seeing these wealthy people, Yang Feng guessed their identities in his heart, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

Seeing that Yang Feng was a little displeased, Yue An quickly explained: "Dude, these are all gentry from Luoyang City. This time, I came to represent the people of Luoyang City and asked you to lead the army into the city."

"You guys!" Yang Feng was a little amused and crying: "Don't worry, I came to Luoyang to wipe out the bandits, and you don't have to worry that the Jiangning army would flee without fighting. But there is no need to enter the city. This time, I decided to lead the army out of Henan Prefecture, go to Mengjin to meet the enemy, and strive to annihilate the bandits."

"What...welcome...welcome the enemy?"

Yang Feng's words scared these people. This guy actually put the strong Luoyang City but did not stick to it. Instead, he had to take the initiative to face the enemy. Is this guy crazy?

Yue An stammered and said, "Dude, there are... 200,000 bandits. The officials thought they were still in the city and guarding them. It would not be too late to lead the army to attack after the bandits were exhausted."

"Yes, Lord Yue is right. We should wait until the bandits are full of energy before attacking." A group of gentry persuaded them one after another, and one of them was sad and kept persuading them with a bitter face.

At the beginning, Yang Feng could still listen to a few words. After a while, Yang Feng gradually became impatient and said coldly: "Okay, how to use troops is my business, so you don't have to persuade me anymore. I have already discussed with the generals. I will lead the Jiangning army to meet the enemy early tomorrow morning, so I don't have to persuade me anymore. I still have military affairs. If you have nothing else, please come back."

"This is..."

Everyone who was scared and expelled from the military camp was soon sent out of the military camp.

A gentleman said to Yin Luzhong: "Mr. Yin, just think of a solution. The bandits are powerful. If Duke Xinguo goes there, who else can defend our Luoyang City?"

Yin Luzhong shook his head: "It seems that Duke Xinguo has made up his mind to fight against the bandits. What will I do if I can do it? I can only leave it to fate."

Yue An and Lu Dayou looked at each other, and both of them saw the worry in each other's eyes.
