Liu Ling was in a good mood, because the small matter of competing for the world of the Great Zhou Dynasty was finally coming to an end. As long as Pei Zhan was defeated, the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty would be clear. As for the short-sighted Li Tianfang, Yue Le and Liu who lived in a corner
Ling said confidently that he really didn't take these two people seriously.
Next, Liu Ling arranged a beautiful ambush for Pei Zhan. Although Liu Ling had not received the battle report yet, he was sure that Wang Banjin in Jizhou had finished his work. The next thing to do is to let him
Pei Zhan was completely defeated and could no longer stand up. Liu Ling would not give Pei Zhan a chance to have a decisive battle with him. Although he respected his opponent, he would not let his soldiers fight to the death just because he respected him.
The mourning army will win. There is no doubt that Pei Zhan's Ding'an army is now a mourning army.
A decisive battle? If you want to capture the more than 20,000 remaining soldiers under Pei Zhan's command, you will have to pay twice the price in terms of strength. From top to bottom, everyone alive in the Ding'an Army knows that if you want to survive,
If they go down, they must win every battle that follows. No matter how terrifying the enemy they face is, they have no way out. Kill the enemy and survive, or die proudly.
Liu Ling respected this team very much. On the night of the Ghost Festival, hundreds of thousands of Ding'an troops defeated Li Tianfang's Kaifeng army and Yue Lemihuang's Qingzhou troops. From this, it can be seen that the Ding'an army has been trained by Pei Zhan.
To become a strong soldier who can fight hard and fight to the death. In a decisive battle with such an army, even if the opponent only has more than 20,000 people left, Liu Ling is not willing to do that. He is confident in the men and horses under his command, and in terms of combat effectiveness
Definitely not inferior to the Ding'an Army. But if there is a decisive battle like that, the damage to the Han Army will be huge. Even if one life is exchanged for another, Liu Ling is reluctant to give it up. Pei Zhan is willing to give it up. Now that he has reached this point, what else can he not fight for?
?
Pei was defeated miserably and his remaining troops were limited. Without knowing the situation of the Jizhou camp, he did not dare to return north rashly. He was not a fool. He had already thought that since Liu Ling could target the troops returning south he led.
The army planned a shocking situation, and they must have already thought about how to deal with the 250,000 troops they left in Jizhou. Although Pang Zhun is a rare talent, Pei Pei Zhan knew what if Liu Ling had planned it.
It would be difficult for Pang Zhun to resist the 250,000-strong army. Thinking about it now, when Pang Zhun begged himself not to return south rashly, he might have anticipated the hardships ahead, right?
Pei Zhan gave a bitter smile, and his dislike of Pang Zhun weakened a bit. He thought in his heart that if the Jizhou camp was safe and he could return, it might be a good thing to reuse Pang Zhun in the future.
Now Pei Zhan has only two choices. First, return to Weizhou, where he will wait for the soldiers and horses from the Jizhou camp to go south to join him. Second, go southeast to Tanzhou to recuperate and prepare for a comeback. There is no doubt about these two choices. Return to Weizhou
Prefecture is the wisest choice. As for Tanzhou, not far to the northeast is Bozhou. It is impossible to go there. Luo Xu, the embarrassed Hu Ben Dadu Protector Luo Xu, who was chased after being defeated by Pei Zhan, was recuperating in Julu Ze
It has been more than a year, and now tens of thousands of troops have been sent out of Juluze to occupy Bozhou City. If Pei Zhan goes east, Luo Xu will never let him go. Although the Tiger and Ben elite cavalry fought in the battle of Kaifeng and the subsequent Great War,
He suffered heavy losses in the rout, but the impression left by that lion on Pei Zhan was extremely profound.
In a head-on battle, the most courageous and capable team that Pei Zhan has seen so far is Luo Xu's Tiger Knight Cavalry.
It seems that Pei Zhan has no second option.
Therefore, Liu Ling was in a good mood.
After the Ghost Festival killing night, the 40,000 Han troops led by Hua Ling and Zhao Er disappeared from the sight of the three parties as if they had evaporated. Others did not know, but Liu Ling knew, because Hua Ling and Zhao Er had already
Following his orders, Weizhou was captured!
Hua Ling and Zhao Er led an army of 40,000 and pretended to be the defeated Ding'an Army to deceive the gates of Weizhou City. They easily occupied the best foothold for Pei Zhan. They had sharpened their knives and filled their arrow pots, just waiting for Pei Zhan.
Go and knock on the door. When a friend comes, there is good wine. If the enemy comes, he will be greeted with shotguns. Naturally, the Han army does not have shotguns, but they have many sharp weapons and methods for killing people.
But Liu Ling also knew that Pei Zhan could not have thought of this. The Han army did not participate in the battle that night, and Pei Zhan would definitely speculate on the whereabouts of the Han army. As long as he was not so angry that his brain was broken or his mind was crazy, he would definitely
I can think of where the Han army is. Therefore, Liu Ling not only dug a grave for Pei Zhan in Weizhou, but also laid a game of ambush on all sides. In fact, there is no need to ambush on all sides, four sides is enough.
.
There are still 60,000 Han troops in Huazhou, and they are guarded by Yang Ye. Yang Ye has already received Liu Ling's order to lead an army of 50,000 out of Huazhou, blocking the way of the Ding'an army going south. Liu Ling has also sent people
Go to Jizhou and let Liu Mao lead his troops south to cut off the Ding'an army's retreat to the northeast. Although Pei Zhan dare not go to Bozhou, he can bypass Weizhou and go to Beizhou. This road must be strangled. Liu Ling
He also ordered Dugu Ruizhi's troops from Luzhou to march out and occupy Xiangzhou, cutting off the Ding'an army's way to break out to the west. In this way, the four directions of south, east, north and west were blocked by the Han army. In fact, there were more than four directions.
On the road that Pei Zhan was most likely to take, Shengtu Yehu and Helian Tiemu were guarding the road with four thousand Kuangtu. That road was a dead end. Unless Pei Zhan went crazy, it would definitely not be possible.
He will go there. But no matter which direction Pei Zhan chooses to break out of the encirclement in the end, Liu Ling's path will not be easy.
Liu Ling, who had arranged everything, sat on the big boat he modified and floated in the Fuyuan Canal. If Pei Zhan knew that Liu Ling only had more than a thousand soldiers with him, he would go crazy and take them with him.
Let's attack here.
The big boat is very stable. It is undeniable that when the two big boats are together, they are no different than walking on land. Liu Ling is sitting on a chair fishing, while Black Panther, who is not used to riding in a boat, is a little wilted.
He lay down at Liu Ling's feet, raising his head to look at his master from time to time, and then lowering his head to rest with his eyes closed. Black Panther seemed not to be afraid of anything, but he still had a certain fear of the ship. Liu Ling would move up.
The fat fish was casually thrown under its nose, but it ignored it.
There are many fish in the canal water, and there are also many big fish. Liu Ling has caught a lot of big fish so far. Of course, these so-called fish refer to one person after another who can be called a hero. Since going south, Meng Hu
, Xu Shengzhi, Xiao Pojun, Xie Jun, these people are all heroes who dominate the area, but they are stepped on by Liu Ling one after another. The next one to catch is the biggest one. As for whether Liu Ling can be caught, it is not clear.
Worry, it's just a matter of time.
Zhao Da stood not far behind Liu Ling. He did not look at the fishing rod in Liu Ling's hand, but stared at the sleepy Black Panther to break the enemy carefully. He seemed to be very interested in this alien overlord among the beasts.
Interested. If he weren't quite afraid of this unreasonable beast, Zhao Da would even want to touch its butt. Black Panther Po Enemy seemed to feel Zhao Da's gaze, raised his head and squinted at Zhao Da.
, and then let out a low roar, as if to protest against the other party's rudeness.
Liu Ling ignored the small hostility between Black Panther and Zhao Da and seemed to be in a daze at the motionless fish float.
"When will the news from the north arrive?"
Zhao Da rarely showed his childish side and made a face to the Black Panther to defeat the enemy. Suddenly he heard Liu Ling's question. He adjusted his mentality and said: "At the latest in the afternoon, the exact news from Jizhou should arrive."
He smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly and said: "The prince also knows that his subordinate is a lazy person. The stalls everywhere are very diligent, but I, the commander, am terribly lazy. Miss Chen went to Kaifeng, and the intelligence from the three offices seems to be
It’s also a minute or two slower.”
It wasn't like he was mocking himself, but more like an explanation.
Liu Ling nodded and said, "Ziyu...has any news come back?"
He first asked about the news about Jizhou, and then about Chen Ziyu. Zhao Da understood that the later questions were what the prince was most concerned about. Jizhou had a 100% chance of winning, but they were just waiting for the confirmed news to come back. Since
The prince has sent a messenger to Jizhou to order Liu Mao to lead his army south. In fact, the prince is very sure about Jizhou's victory. But Chen Ziyu is not the same, because she will face an unknown and imagined very powerful person.
The opponent. The person who can almost uproot the secret agents of the Overwatch Council in Kaifeng is still a figure after all. This is the most serious loss since the establishment of the Overwatch Council. After all, the death of the head of the previous three departments was
Due to an accidental fall from a cliff, the Overwatch Council lost contact with the Jinyi in Kaifeng this time. From this, it can be inferred that this opponent is not only very intelligent, but also possesses strong combat power.
"Your Majesty already knows the news that came back yesterday, and today's routine report has not been sent yet. But your Majesty, please rest assured that with the Nie brothers by your side, there will be no danger."
Liu Ling hummed and stopped talking.
Just at this moment, a small boat quickly approached the big ship. The people on the big boat then threw the rope and pulled the small boat over. The people on the small boat quickly stepped onto the deck and knelt down on one knee behind Liu Ling.
"Your Majesty, there is news from Chen Baotou."
Liu Ling did not look back. After Zhao Da took the letter, he waved his hand to signal the Supervisory Yuan to retreat. Zhao Da took the letter, thought for a while and walked to Liu Ling and handed it over and said, "Your Majesty, you should read it yourself."
Liu Ling turned around and rolled her eyes at him and said, "It can't be a private message. You feel dirty."
Zhao Da smiled coquettishly, opened the letter and read it first, then frowned.
"Miss Chen has found out who was responsible for the spy from the Third Division. That person's name is Yu Xiaolou."
"Yu Xiaolou?"
Liu Ling repeated the name: "Tell me more about it."
The letter introduced the life of Yu Xiaolou in great detail. After all, Yu Xiaolou was not a shady person. Chai Rong admired this person quite a lot when he was alive. It is not difficult to find out information about him.
.Furthermore, because Li Tianfang really attacked Yu Xiaolou before leading his army to leave Kaifeng, even though Yu Xiaolou used several deception methods, Chen Ziyu was still keenly aware of this man's suspicion.
"This person's thoughts are very detailed and vicious."
After listening to Zhao Da's introduction, Liu Ling said: "Li Tianfang can't plot against him. He must have already laid out a retreat."
Zhao Da nodded and said: "According to Miss Chen's inference, Yu Xiaolou should have retreated to the Southern Tang Dynasty."
Liu Ling stretched out: "Since the person has left long ago, let's ask Ziyu to come back. However, the person still needs to be chased. How can there be any truth in the world to run away after taking advantage? Tell Brother Nie, don't talk about Nan.
Tang, even Nanhai will chase me and cut off Yu Xiaolou’s head and bring him back. If I don’t avenge my revenge, I’m afraid that the sacrificed spy will tell me his grievances in his dream.”
Zhao Da Dao: "Yes, Your Majesty... Miss Chen wrote in her letter that Ji Wuming is still alive."
Just as a fish happened to take the bait, Liu Ling's movement of closing the pole paused: "Can he still move? If he can move, let him chase it with the Nie brothers. He has lost the face he has lost, and he still has to get it back. Otherwise...
He feels sorry for those dead spies. If one month is not enough, it will be a year, and if one year is not enough, it will be three years. If you want to kill someone, you will always find an opportunity."
Liu Ling paused and said, "Tell him, if he dies in the final battle, I will erect a monument for him." (To be continued)
