The rain was pouring down, and the repair work of the county government lobby in Qisicheng was not completed. At this time, there was still rain dripping from somewhere in the corner.
In the dim hall, Han Qian, Guo Duanduo, Zhou Daoyuan and Shen Peng sat facing each other.
Facing the suggestion put forward by Han Qian, Guo Duanduo frowned deeply like the peaks of Tongbai Mountain. He sighed with a grimace and said: "Bianjing City is of great significance to the army and people of Daliang. Once it is given up voluntarily, it will directly affect our army. The morale of your Majesty is not that he has not considered this possibility, but all the generals are reluctant to give up!"
"The Marquis is worried about Xu Mingzhen. Sima Tan has actually surrendered, but at this time he is just pretending not to surrender. Your Majesty and the generals have also considered it," Shen Peng said. "That's right. Everyone is worried that all this is a trap by the Mongols. , its purpose is to make us mistakenly believe that the evacuation channel from Bianjing to the Yingshui River in Chenzhou is still there. But when hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians actually evacuate south from Bianjing City, enemy troops will suddenly come from all directions! "
Guo Rong, Zhou Pan, Feng Liao, Kong Xirong, Wen Bo, Wang Zhe and others, as subordinate officials of Tangyi, were sitting under Han Qian. They listened to what Guo Duanduo and Shen Peng said and thought it was right.
They did not advocate sending troops north, fearing that there would be a trap, but for the same reason, asking Han Yuanqi, Chen Kun and others to lead hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians to retreat south from Bianjing City was also extremely rash and risky.
Once the guess turned out to be true, Han Yuanqi and the others led 20,000 generals to retreat south very quickly without worrying about being intercepted. However, hundreds of thousands of civilians, including the clan's descendants and the generals' families, had to wait until they left Bianjing and arrived in Chenzhou. During the 1,670-mile journey to the north, we were subjected to a fierce offensive by the enemy. In the end, how many people could safely evacuate from the Ying River to the south of Yingzhou?
Speaking of which, the Mongols teamed up to dig up the embankment of the Yu River and create a yellow flood zone along the Ying River to cut through the land of the Hehuai River. This was a cruel move.
This move alone will put them into complete strategic passivity.
Even if Emperor Liang could establish contact with the Wei River Plain in time, eight or nine million people in the twenty-nine states east of the Ying River would fall into enemy hands, and the balance of the entire war situation would be completely tilted.
By then, even if Huaixi joins forces with Emperor Zhu Yu of Liang, the area controlled by the two armies will only be ten states with a population of three million.
In addition to facing the 200,000 rebels headed by Zhu Rang on the eastern front, the western front also had to face the Mongol troops with stronger combat capabilities after the integration of Jin.
The complete loss of Guanzhong will probably be extremely difficult to avoid at some point in the future.
It is unrealistic to completely abandon the army and people of Bianjing.
Not to mention other things, Guo Duanduo, Zhou Daoyuan and even Shen Peng, their families and young relatives are all in Bianjing City. At this time, Han Qian and others also advised them to completely abandon Bianjing City and its hundreds of thousands of people, and let Han Yuanqi, Chen Qi and others What about leading 20,000 elite troops to retreat south?
Even if we bring all the family members and clan members of the middle and high-ranking generals with us, who can guarantee that at this moment, the Bianjing and Liang troops will not mutiny on their way to the south?
Everyone sat in the hall for more than an hour, but they could not discuss a plan that was acceptable to both parties and considered feasible.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves trampling on the rainwater came into the city.
Everyone raised their heads in fear, not knowing what bad news was about to happen - Qisicheng was now Han Qian's temporary tent. According to the rules, it was not an eight-hundred-mile urgent message, and messengers could not ride fast when entering the city. , in order to cause unnecessary disturbance to the generals in the city.
"Master Marquis, my wife has given birth to a boy, and Donghu has sent someone to announce the good news." Huo Li happily walked into the hall with a handwritten letter and the messenger who came from Donghu to deliver the letter.
"This is a great event, but it makes everyone so nervous." Han Qian said easily.
"Congratulations to the Marquis, there is a new man in Tangyi, and there is a successor to the Marquis." Guo Duanduo, Zhou Daoyuan and Shen Peng congratulated.
The current situation is so bad. No matter how fierce the fighting between the two sides was before, after the sudden change in Heshuo, Tangyi did not add insult to injury, let alone take advantage of the situation. Not to mention that the previous tip-off allowed Han Yuanqi and Chen Kun to lead their troops to reinforce Bianjing and Guanzhong in time. The soldiers and horses returned to Hehuai via Tangyi. In the past year or so, Tangyi borrowed more than one million dan of grain, more than 20,000 sets of armor and corresponding sophisticated war equipment from Hehuai.
Even the refugee camps now established in Caizhou and Yingzhou are supplied by Tangyi with thousands of stones of grain every day.
The former strong rivals could do this for Daliang, and Guo Duanduo, Zhou Daoyuan, Shen Peng and others had nothing to say.
At this time, no feasible countermeasures could be discussed, and Tangyi was not responsible. They could only advise Han Qian to return to East Lake to see the newborn son.
Han Qian pondered for a long time, and decided to send another thousand advance troops and heavy industry to the north of Chenzhou to build troops and horses. At the southern end of Chenbian Post Road, which was flooded near the main river of Yingshui, he assisted Liang Jun in expanding the camp and trestle in the flooded area. Construction - The post road entrance is narrow and cannot accommodate several warships at a time. Whether the scale of the trestle and water village can continue to expand will directly affect the speed and efficiency of reinforcement or retreat.
At the same time, Tangyi will take advantage of the fact that Xu Mingzhen and the Sima clan have not openly rebelled, and the Mongol cavalry has not gone around to the south of Bianjing, and will directly transport as much grain as possible to Bianjing as well as the mules and horses that Bianjing is in short supply. .
Sometimes mules and horses are good things. Not only can they speed up the journey when retreating, but they can also be kept within the walls of Bianjing in summer and autumn. They can eat grass and leaves without taking up food. When the weather cools down, they can be slaughtered and the meat can be stored to tide over hunger. .
Although eating meat was an extremely luxurious thing for people in the world at that time, emergency measures could only be used in emergencies.
There is another question that Han Qian has been thinking about.
The Yu River's floodwaters with extremely high sediment content burst their banks and hit the Shaying River. When the water flow at the mouth of the Huaihe River slowed down, a large amount of sediments would be deposited; and the floods washed away the mud banks along the Shaying River, causing the water to swirl and swirl. , and will bring a large amount of sediment, trees and debris from the shore into the main channel, causing dark sand accumulation at random points.
Maybe there won't be any major problems in a year or two, but if it takes a little longer, as the Yingshui River Channel is repeatedly damaged by floods, the Shaying River Channel may be completely abandoned.
The floods broke down the embankments and spread for tens of miles to both sides of the river. Due to the restrictions of the terrain on both sides, the floodplains on both sides of the rivers cannot be symmetrical. This makes the confirmation of the central channel a problem. If you are not careful, the ship will be stranded.
On the Yingshui main river, which is more than 400 miles from Yingkou to Chenzhou, it is not a simple matter to re-confirm the main navigation channel and set up some lighthouse-like landmarks along the route.
Han Qian also hoped that Liang Jun would try to speed up the repair of the wading post road in the floodplain area north of Yinshui County.
Even considering that the Sima clan and Xu Mingzhen have not surrendered for the time being, it is most likely a trap set by the Mongols to lure Bianjing soldiers and civilians out of the city to ambush them, but preparations for evacuation must be made.
Therefore, building a high-dam post road across the flooded area in the north and south near Chenzhoudu was something Liang Emperor Zhu Yu had already decided on, so as to avoid expediting the evacuation of Bianjing's soldiers and civilians when necessary.
Using boats to evacuate hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians directly to Yingkou, which is four hundred miles away, is too inefficient and too slow; using boats to evacuate hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians from the north bank to the south bank, and then continue to evacuate south via post roads.
It's much faster.
However, the resources of the Liangjun River in Huaihe were limited. Before the embankment broke, the main task was to heighten and widen the post road in the north of Chenzhou. The post road near the river in Yinshui County in the south of Chenzhou was also repaired. However, when the flood came, the post road from
The post road extending from southwest to northeast and located in the shallow low area of Yinshui County failed to withstand the water and was washed away in more than ten places.
Chen Zhoubei
The partial post road has not been breached. On the one hand, it is mainly because the terrain itself is high enough. On the other hand, berms are being built at any cost on the road sections that may be affected by floods.
The simple berm is only useful to withstand the first wave of floods this year. It is impossible for the Yuhe River to seal the breach next year. By then, some sections of Chenbian Post Road will still be exposed, and they will probably be damaged by water erosion.
Facing the monstrous flood, human power is too insignificant.
Whether it is reinforcements or evacuation, the preliminary preparations cannot be stopped and must be stepped up. In any case, Han Qian also hopes that Han Yuanqi and the others will be in Bianjing and evacuate as many soldiers and civilians as possible in the early stage.
Even if it is finally decided to defend Bianjing City and withdraw more soldiers and civilians, the food pressure in the city can be relieved.
Of course, Han Qian had already established an advance brigade with Kong Xirong, Cao Ba, Wang Che and others in Huoqiu, where boarding conditions were better, and dispatched six to eight thousand elite soldiers and generals from various tribes to conduct water and land landings.
We will conduct coordinated combat training and be prepared to take naval warships from Huoqiu to the north to join the war at any time.
In addition, the main forces of the second, third, and fourth town armies are all deployed in the north along the south bank of the Huaihe River. There are naval bases nearby. Whether a large-scale landing from the north of Chenzhou to reinforce Bianjing is just waiting for Han Qian to make the final decision.
determination.
…………
…………
The situation was so treacherous and dangerous that Han Qian certainly did not dare to make a decision easily and risk the fate of Tangyi.
This is also a worry for a large family. He has to consider the fate of tens of thousands of generals and hundreds of thousands of family members behind him. Unconsciously, he becomes more cautious and no longer has the courage to risk everything like during the Jinling Rebellion.
After Han Qian said goodbye to Guo Duanduo, Zhou Daoyuan and Shen Peng, he, surrounded by his guards, rode a fast horse all the way south, wading across the river from the shallow water in the upper reaches of the valley. Many roads along the way were washed away by flash floods. They rushed to Anfeng to return home.
After changing boats and heading south, they rushed back to Liyang five days later. Gao Shao, Kong Xirong, Wen Bo, Feng Liao and others went to Huoqiu, Shouchun and other places. There were too many things for them to deal with.
Han Qian rushed to Liyang. Wang Jun was only nine days old. He was still a little weak and his face was a little pale, but he was in good spirits. Both mother and child were safe. Listening to the baby's clear cry made Han Qian feel cloudy in his heart these days.
A lot has been eliminated.
After the Wang family in Yangzhou received the news of Wang Jun's birth, Wang Wenqian's concubine Xu and Wang Jun's cousin Zhou brought a group of female relatives, nephews, maids, and domestic servants, dozens of whom were three years older than Han Qian.
Tian rushed to Liyang Lianyuan to visit them, and they all settled in the East Garden of Liyuan Garden.
Xi Rong had a severe headache. She was worried about assassins infiltrating the royal family's servants, but she could not neglect to be rude. The day before yesterday, the wives of Han Daoming and Han Daochang also rushed to Liyang with their female relatives, maids, and servants.
Dozens of people live in Lianyuan.
Lianyuan, which is usually relatively quiet, was suddenly overcrowded.
Before Han Qian rushed back, Xi Rong didn't sleep well for three days.
When Han Qian came back, Xi Rong stopped being polite and directly invited all the relatives and women of the two families out of Lianyuan and lived in a garden next door that was urgently cleared. Only then did the guards and guards in the garden return to normal.
But it was Han Daochang who had accurately calculated the day of Han Qian's return and rushed to Liyang this morning. He went to visit Wen Muqiao at noon. When he knew that Han Qian had returned to Liyang, he and Wen Muqiao rushed to Liyuan to meet him.
In the Han Mansion, Han Qian can understand that the Wang family members are so eager.
It was far less lively when Zhao Ting'er gave birth to Wenxin. On the one hand, they were in a remote place in Xuzhou, and their strength was not as strong as it was now. On the other hand, and most importantly, Zhao Ting'er was a concubine, and Han Wenxin
, Han Wenyuan is a concubine and has children.
As for Wang Jun's birth this time, he was the eldest son according to Da Chu law.
There were many marquises in the Great Chu, but Han Qian and his father Han Daoxun were hereditary in Xuzhou, and Han Qian was granted the official title of Qianyang, the Marquis of Qianyang. His status as Marquis of Qianyang was not as high as that of Li Zhigao's Xinjin Marquis or Huang Lu's Jiangyin Marquis.
It is even more valuable than the dukes and princes who have no actual title.
Not to mention that Tangyi is actually a vassal town. Even if Han Qian has the title of Qianyang Marquis, his successor will be the upright prince prince.
According to the current legal system, the eldest son born and raised by Wang Jun will be officially canonized by the court when he grows up.
Han Qian held his little son in his arms who was still crying in his arms. He was very happy in his heart, but when he saw Wen Xin timidly standing at the door and looking at the situation in the room, he did not dare to walk in at will.
"Wen Xin, why are you running here again? My little brother is too young. You have such a hairy temper..." At this moment, the female family members were already thinking about taking Wen Xin to another yard.
Han Qian sighed slightly in his heart, the power of tradition or habit is still too strong.
Although he is not familiar with the female members of the Wang family, he knows very well what kind of snobs his two aunts are. Maybe he has been eager to label his two sons as "legitimate son" and "bastard son" in the past two days.
Imprinted.
Han Qian originally didn't want to get entangled in this kind of thing right now, and thought about driving away the female relatives of both families in two days. However, the situation in Hehuai was critical, and he had nothing to do. Seeing the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but feel agitated.
Guo Rong followed Han Qian back to Liyang. After visiting Wang Jun's mother and son, he wanted to leave to take care of matters. At this time, Han Qian suddenly stopped him and said: "In the blink of an eye, Wen Xin is eight years old. He should also formally submit a letter to the court to please
Now that I have made him the crown prince, can you tell me how we should draw up this plan so that it is appropriate?"
As soon as Han Qian said this, everyone in the lively room was stunned as if struck by lightning. It was hard to imagine that Wang Jun, as the main wife, had finally given birth to his first child, and they were all boys. Han Qian
You have to directly submit a letter to the imperial court to make Han Wenxin, the eldest son of Zhao Ting'er, the crown prince!?
"This..." Guo Rong, who had followed Han Qianyan's advice, was hesitant at this time and didn't know what to say.
Han Daochang and Wen Muqiao didn't react for a while, thinking they had misunderstood.
Even if the female relatives of the two families wanted to object, it was not their turn to speak. Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a little uncomfortable, they could only look at each other and leave first.
The lively room suddenly became deserted, and even Wen Xin didn't know where to go in the blink of an eye. Only Han Qian, Guo Rong, Han Daochang, Wen Muqiao, Xi Lin, and Wang who were sitting on the brocade couch to rest their strength were left.
Jun - Han Donghu, Huo Li, Wang Zhe, Huo Xiao and other attendants, military officers and civil servants were waiting in the yard next door, and would not come over at will without being summoned.
"It's true that you made everyone uneasy just after you came back, and you can't stop talking about it for a few days." Wang Jun carefully picked up the youngest son and said angrily.
"It's better to settle it early so that no one will make a fuss about this matter," Han Qian said. "Now the rivers and Huaihe Rivers are hopping, and the trees in the rivers and Huaihe Rivers want to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. It's really a mess..."
Seeing that Wang Jun and Han Qian spoke in normal tones, Han Daochang and Guo Rong were not in a hurry to say anything. After all, this kind of thing is most likely to cause internal discord and cause chaos.
It is not too much to say that Tangyi is a vassal state at this time. Think about how many powerful people have fallen into trouble because of the establishment of direct descendants in the last years of the previous dynasty.
Han Qian's decision was too sudden. Han Daochang and Guo Rong couldn't see through the pros and cons for a while, so naturally the most important thing was to shut up first.
Wen Muqiao knew very well that words should be cherished like gold, and he felt as if he was about to fall asleep while sitting there.
At this time, the guard came in and handed over a letter. Han Qian took it and read it for a long time before saying to Guo Rong: "Xu Mingzhen
I want to transfer Xu Jin to Taikang - you prepare an order for me, and Kong Xirong will take the lead in sending the battalion north to garrison the remaining city of Wanqiu in Chenzhou..."
Taikang belongs to Chenzhou and was once under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Prefecture of Liang State. It is located on the east side of Chen-Bianyi Road.
Emperor Zhu Yu of the Liang Dynasty returned to Hehuai and renamed Xu Mingzhen the military governor of Chenzhou. He was originally expected to lead the Shouzhou army to seize Chenzhou and attack Wuzhi and other places west of Bianjing in the north. However, according to Wuzhi, Huaizhou was glimpsed to the north.
, Mengjin and other places to help the main force of the Hehuai Liang Army cut off the communication between the Heluo rebels and the enemy forces on the eastern front.
However, Xu Mingzhen delayed not to divide her troops to Taikang, Tuocheng and other places, but instead occupied Qiao and Ying states, divided her forces to recover, and controlled Bozhou, Songzhou and other places on both sides of the Wishui River.
Xu Mingzhen did not want to block the front line of the Mongolian troops. It is easy to understand that as a large area in the middle and lower reaches of the Ying River became a floodplain, Xu Mingzhen had no choice but to abandon Yingzhou, and the focus of her troops shifted to the east; in the region
First, we were closer to the Sima clan who controlled Xu Si and the rebels who controlled Weibo, Qi and other places.
At this time, there was a sudden intention to move troops and horses westward into Taikang City. The intention was not pure at all.
And Tangyi has already confirmed through internal lines that since April, mysterious guests have entered Mengcheng where Xu Mingzhen is temporarily stationed many times. Why not say that there is probably no one in the world who knows better than Wen Muqiao, Wen Bo and his son.
Xu Mingzhen’s thoughts.
No matter how you look at it, Xu Mingzhen will raise a flag of rebellion and join the enemy. It is something that will happen at any time. Of course, Xu Mingzhen may also have the last fear of Tangyi, and she has not openly rebelled at this time, right?
In response to Xu Mingzhen's move, Tangyi had already made a plan. Kong Xirong was the first to send his battalion north to help Liang Jun control Wanqiu and Junwu and other villages east of Wanqiu, and try to protect the safety of the south side of Chen-Bian Post Road.
.
There was a plan. When Kong Xirong and others learned about the Shouzhou Army's movement in Huoqiu, they would take direct action. Han Qian's order was just for further confirmation.
However, Han Qian still could not make up his mind at this time whether to send larger reinforcements in the future.
There were too many activities in Cishou Palace during this period. Yao Xishui and Zhou Yuan not only rushed to Chuzhou in person a few days ago, but also sent people to Jingzhou twice to see Zhang Wei. This made Han Qian have to consider that once Tangyi was in Chenzhou
Too many troops and horses are invested, and the war is likely to fall into a stalemate and entanglement that is unfavorable to Tangyi. Li Zhigao cannot restrain his ambition to seek Shu. How should Tangyi respond?
Emperor Zhu Yu of the Liang Dynasty said that he hoped that Tangyi could solve the internal problems of Dachu within three years, but in fact, even within a year, the Mongols asked Liang Shixiong to dig up the embankment of the Yu River, causing the Hehuai River to rot.
In such a short period of time, Wang Yong has not yet sat in the position of the new leader of Shu.
If Li Zhigao really loses control of his ambition and joins forces with Zhao Mengji and Wang Xiaoxian, it is possible that Zhang Wei may even lead his troops up the river and attack Kui, Chongqing and other places from Wushan Changxia. Can Wang Yong cope with it?
Guo Rong found Huo Xiao and drafted three letters of orders at the same time, giving them to Han Qian for signature.
Of the three letters of command, two will be sent to Shouchun via flying pigeons - only pigeon nests are built in Shouchun, Linhuai and Huangchuan on the northern route of flying pigeons - and then sent to Shouchun
Huo Qiu; a letter from a messenger riding a fast horse on a post road heading north.
"How do the DPRK and China discuss these matters now?" Han Qian asked Han Daochang as he watched Huo Xiao take down the signed letter and dispose of it.
"Everyone in the court should have expected that Tangyi would aid Hehuai, but most people, such as King Shou, Zhang Chao, Zhang Han, Du Chongtao, Zhou Bingwu and others, thought that Yuhe would seize the Huaihe River.
It is beneficial to the Jianghuai River. If the Yu River seizes the Huaihe River, the siltation of the Yingshui River will become more and more serious, and the floodplain area will continue to expand to both sides. This not only restricts the Mongol cavalry troops from going south from this area, but also increases the number of people.
The large-scale escape is also destined to hollow out this area and reduce the threat from Nanyang and the northwestern flank of Huaihe..." Han Daochang stated the views of the ministers in the DPRK in as much detail as possible.
"These views are prevalent in both the government and the public, which will only make some people more eager to move," Guo Rong said with a sigh, "Maybe Li Zhigao is waiting for us to send troops to reinforce Chenzhou..."
As they were talking here, they saw Zhao Ting'er's father, Mr. Zhao, peeking in outside the yard. He didn't know if he had just heard something - Han Qian was bothered by this, so he pretended not to see it, but saw
Zhao Ting'er walked in holding Wen Xin and drove her father away.
"You want to abolish the line chief system and divide the clans and property. The people below will return to Tangyi. The clans will be broken up. The small families will live comfortably and there will be no uneasiness. As long as everyone gets used to it, there won't be so many worries.
The family is short-sighted, but this courtyard involves the aspirations of millions of people in Huaixi and Xuzhou. There are some rules that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If you say it, it will be ignored. Don't say what outsiders think, the soldiers and people of Tangyi will also be uneasy - you
I just came back in a hurry, why bother making everyone uneasy?" Zhao Ting'er walked in and said angrily.
Han Daochang and Guo Rong were both thinking of raising their butts and resigning.
Anyway, whatever they say at this time is wrong, so they might as well avoid talking about it.
"Zhou Yuan, Yao Xishui, rushed to Chuzhou five days ago to meet King Xin, Ruan Yan and others. The so-called 'legitimate son' is one of the things they can do. However, some people in the Wang family have floating minds. Isn't this adding to the chaos?"
Han Qian said with a wry smile.
"It's not like these things can't be warned privately. Why bother to mobilize people like this and make excuses?" Zhao Ting'er looked at Wang Jun who was holding his youngest son and said, "Sister, don't you criticize him? I was still in the academy just now.
In the blink of an eye, the news has spread like wildfire. If this is really going to happen, I can only go back to Xuzhou with the letter and Wenyuan."
Han Daochang and Guo Rong were sitting there in vain, neither staying nor leaving at the moment; Wen Muqiao was twirling his white beard thoughtfully.
"Since this matter is so disturbing, if it is true, it will definitely arouse a lot of speculation," Wang Jun hugged his sleeping son, hesitantly looked at Guo Rong, Han Daochang, and Wen Muqiao and asked, "Uncle and Mr. Guo,
Mr. Wen, if you don't know that neither Ting'er nor I have any intention of competing for status, nor do you know that if your husband really wants to establish an heir in the future, he will only choose talents and will not care about fame and law, how would you view this matter?"
Hearing Wang Jun ask this question, Han Daochang and Guo Rong hesitated for a while, feeling that it was difficult to say something too direct with some sensitive words.
After surrendering to Tangyi, Wen Muqiao, who had always kept a low profile, maintained a home, and traveled around the mountains and rivers without paying attention to worldly affairs, now twirled his white beard and said: "Madam probably doesn't just want to say that outsiders will think that the Marquis is doing this.
, but to remember the disaster at Lanting Alley, right?"
"This is just one of them. If outsiders think so, it will be beneficial to my Wang family. At least they will not be dragged into the whirlpool immediately," Wang Jun said. "But my husband is so eager to give up, outsiders may guess
Did your husband do anything else out of the ordinary?"
"Madam, do you think that outsiders will mistakenly think that the Marquis is eager to establish a legitimate heir, and his purpose is just like what happened during the current Jinling Rebellion, and that he intends to lead troops and fight in dangerous places?" Wen Muqiao said, "However, probably only outsiders believe that
The Marquis is about to personally lead his troops to fight in the Hehuai River, and some ghosts and monsters will really jump out..."
"Are you going to lure the snake out of its hole?" Han Qian wanted to ask Li Wenxin to be his heir apparent. He was simply upset by the appearance of the two women's families, but he hadn't thought about it so deeply, but since Wang Jun and Wen Muqiao brought up this topic
, he couldn't help but think deeply.
"Only by leading the snake out of the hole, the next situation will be a little clearer. Otherwise, it will be a stalemate if the Marquis does not send troops, and it will not be a problem if he sends troops. Wen thinks that this strategy mentioned by the wife may be worth a try." Wen said.
