Chapter 1027

Fang Xie didn't know that in a distant place called Ping'an County on Shanjiang Road, a group of people who put life and death aside blocked the Mongolian Yuan army with their flesh and blood. They are not regular soldiers, but they are real soldiers. Not only the 8000 people in Ping'an County, but also the men, women and children in the county. The fear of death makes people react instinctively, but in front of some emotions, death is so insignificant.

Lingmen pass hasn't been attacked yet. Even Xiaoqi school can't pass. It's impossible to explore the news on Shanjiang road. If you want to make a detour, you have to go for at least two months. Two months seems too long for a war.

Chunboting City

When Fang Xie arrived outside with his own battalion, Gao Kaitai was already standing at the gate to meet him. This is the second meeting between the two people. Compared with the last time, this time is obviously of great significance. The last time they met, they talked as enemies, but this time, they may become allies.

Seeing Fang Xie coming, Wu Yi, who had passed in advance, quietly nodded to the other party.

It can be seen that Gao Kaitai has changed his attitude this time. People's eyes can always show people's mood. When people deceive people with colorful language, his eyes are often not the same attitude as language. It can also be inferred from Wu Yidao's previous schematic solution that he and Gao Kaitai must have had a conversation.

"Thank you for saving me."

When Fang Xie came near, Gao Kaitai quickly walked over and bowed down.

Fang Xie quickly reached out and helped him up: "General Gao, why?"

Gao Kaitai shook his head behind him: "if it weren't for San Jin's help this time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have a chance to see the Duke again. It's all because I was confused for a moment. I actually believed the one-sided words of those heretics, which almost led to great disaster. Fortunately, I can save one or two now, otherwise I will really become a sinner for thousands of years."

As they walked, they talked and entered chunboting city.

The defenders in the city are all Gao Kaitai's subordinates. They are excited to see Fang Xie and Gao Kaitai walking with their arms. Speaking of it, Gao Kaitai's troops have not really rested for several years. They have been marching and fighting. Even the most elite and professional soldiers will be tired of war.

If war can bring victory, the soldiers will be stimulated by a temptation, and the weariness of war will be suppressed. However, years of war not only can not see the end, but also has no victory, which has become a kind of suffering. Fang Xie and Gao Kaitai looked at the faces of soldiers on both sides from time to time as they walked.

"You can't underestimate the shadow hall this month."

Gao Kaitai sat down and shook his head. "I don't know how these Jianghu people have such great skills to lead Mongolian Yuan people into the pass. It's a shame to say that if the rivers and mountains in the central plains are lost because of me, I'm afraid I'll be scolded for thousands of years. Although I'm no longer subject to the discipline of the Sui Dynasty, I still know what I can't touch."

Fang Xie nodded and said, "the general can stop at this time, which is not only a great good thing for hundreds of thousands of soldiers of our two armies, but also for the people. The people in Gyeonggi and Jiangbei have suffered years of war, and their life is harder than anyone else."

Gao Kaitai said, "in troubled times... Alas..."

"Let's talk about the moon shadow hall."

Fang Xie diverted the topic.

Gao Kaitai hurriedly said: "The people in this month's shadow hall are extremely mysterious. The person I contacted before was called Mr. four, that is, the fourth king of the moon shadow hall. However, it is said that this person was killed when he was going to assassinate the general of the Duke a few days ago. Later, Mr. five came to me. It was this person who told me about the entry of Mengyuan million troops. He asked me to join hands with Mengyuan people to kill the Duke's black army Flag army. "

"I fought for the victory or defeat with the Duke of China, which was the most opponent of Ming Dao and Ming gun on the battlefield. But I couldn't do it with the Mongolian Yuan people. I had a contact with the Mongolian Yuan people when I was in the northwest, but it was to defeat Luo Yao and didn't involve any interests. The Mongolian Yuan people left after the war. Now the Mongolian Yuan people are coming again. It's not obvious what they want."

"The people of the moon shadow hall and the people of the Yuan Dynasty just want to take advantage of the power of the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty needs a powerful Jianghu sect as a guide and help to enter the pass. And the people of the moon shadow hall need the strong military power of the Yuan Dynasty to become the overlord of the Jianghu again. Birds of a feather flock together in one shot."

After listening to him, Fang Xie shook his head: "General Gao still thinks things too simple. The people of the moon shadow hall want more than the overlord of the Jianghu. They really want to take advantage of the situation when they lead the Mongolian Yuan people into the pass, but the situation is different from what general Gao thinks. If there is no accident, they want to make the central plains more chaotic."

Solution: "Now the forces in the Central Plains have been basically determined, and no one can deal with anyone for a while. This forms a situation that looks very chaotic but actually has some balance. Next, there is a game between the strongest, and the less powerful people will see the wind and make the rudder. If the Mongolian Yuan people enter the pass, this balance will be broken. At that time, the Central Plains will be more chaotic and the moon shadow hall In order to obtain greater benefits. "

"Greater interests?"

Gao Kaitai repeated, his face changed: "is it difficult to be a Jianghu guest and want to be an emperor?"

"Who is not in the Jianghu?"

Fang Xie said, "when the Mongolian Yuan people enter the pass, the forces in the Central Plains will stop attacking each other and jointly resist the Mongolian Yuan people. Millions of troops of the Mongolian Yuan will fight with the forces in the Central Plains. At that time, I'm afraid it will be a loss to both sides. It's not easy for the Mongolian Yuan people to enter the Central Plains, and we... Will lose a lot in this war."

"Alas..."

Gao Kaitai sighed heavily: "people are not enough. Snakes swallow elephants."

……

……

"Now, who else can stop to protect the people?"

Fang Xie glanced at Gao Kaitai and then pointed to himself: "I"

He also pointed to Gao Kaitai: "you"

Fang Xie went to the edge of the table and asked the soldiers to unfold the map and said: "At present, there is no large-scale force in the northwest to stop the Mongolian Yuan people, but a large number of soldiers and men went to fight against the foreigners in the eastern Xinjiang after the invasion of the foreigners in the eastern Xinjiang. Almost all the forces in the eastern half of the great Sui Dynasty were involved in the occupation by the foreigners. I have led the army to stabilize the southwest, and Gao Jiajun has been in Gyeonggi province for several years. Now only you and me are in front of the Mongolian Yuan people."

After pondering for a while, Gao Kaitai said, "this war is bound to be fought, but now I'm unstable and lack of food and grass... I'm afraid I don't have much power."

Fang Xie naturally knew what he was thinking. He had taken Li Yin warehouse a while ago, and Gao Kaitai lost his food and grass supplies. If he didn't join hands with the Mongols, it would be difficult. Moreover, Gao Kaitai knew that Fang Xie's black flag army was strong. At this time, he didn't want to stand in front of the Mongols and consume all his troops.

"No harm"

Fang Xie smiled and said, "I will arrange someone to transport the grain and grass supplies required by General Gao from Liyin warehouse. Now the fleet of our goods has set sail from Liyin warehouse. It will take less than half a month to transport the grain and grass. At least it will be enough for General Gao's men and horses for two months."

Wu Yi sat aside and wanted to remind Fang Xie about lingmen pass. Now it seems that Gao Kaitai really doesn't know about the entry of Mongolian Yuan people and is unwilling to collude with Mongolian Yuan people. If Gao Kaitai orders, the thousands of Gao family soldiers in lingmen pass will withdraw, so as to save Yan Zeng from attacking with people and horses.

He wanted to remind him several times, but he turned to think that Fang Xie's mind was so detailed that he couldn't think of it, so he endured it again.

"Then... What strategy does the Duke have?"

Gao Kaitai didn't know what to say, so he had to ask.

Fang Xie smiled and walked slowly in the room: "In fact, General Gao also knows that your current military strength is not a big threat to our black flag army. The reason why I am willing to sit down with the general is that I need such an attitude now. When the people know that the Mongols are invading on a large scale, and we are still attacking each other, scolding you and me will break your backbone. What I want is general Gao An attitude of jointly resisting foreign enemies. As for whether general Gao is willing to fight this battle with real swords and guns from the Mongolian Yuan people, I don't insist. "

Fang Xie stopped next to the table again and pointed to the map: "After General Gao has taken the food and grass, he can lead the troops to Hedong road. My subordinates Chen Dingnan, Cui Zhongzhen and Chen Qianshan, with 300000 troops and tens of thousands of soldiers of our water division, are deployed in the front line of Yishui. General Gao just waves the flag and shouts in the back. Be clear... As long as General Gao doesn't stab my black flag army in the back, you won't be used in this war, our side I'll carry it alone. "

After saying this, Fang Xie turned to look at Gao Kaitai's eyes, which shocked Gao Kaitai. He opened his mouth to say something to move back, but at this meeting, he found that it was too late to say anything.

"This... This is not a matter for the Duke alone. How can the Duke carry it alone?"

Fan Zengli, a counselor under Gao Kaitai, stood up and said, "the Lord of the country has the world in mind. Is my lord the same? Now that the foreign enemy knocks at the pass, it is time for the two families to work together. The Lord of the country underestimates hundreds of thousands of children under my Lord."

In this way, Fang Xie naturally doesn't care if he saves face for Gao Kaitai.

Dugu Wenxiu smiled and said, "since General Gao is willing to send troops, it's natural that all the food and supplies needed are sent by the black flag army. After arriving at Hedong Road, General Gao only needs to lead troops. General Cui Zhongzhen, General Chen Qianshan and General Chen Dingnan are all generals who have led the troops for many years. With General Gao's support, we can ensure that Mengyuan people can't cross Yishui."

Fan Zengli's face changed, and Gao Kaitai stopped him when he was about to speak: "in that case, I'll just follow the arrangement of the Duke. However... The Duke really despises me. Since Gao is willing to stand up and protect the people, he won't just stand behind and wave the flag and shout."

He hugged his fist and said, "now that I have said this, someone Gao will give way to Chang'an city. When he returns, when the food and grass arrive, he will immediately set out for Hedong road."

Fang Xie nodded: "it's so good. In addition, I'll send several experts to go with General Gao's army to protect General Gao's safety. The people in the moon shadow hall are haunted. There are no experts around General Gao. After all, there are some worries."

Fan Zengli wanted to refuse, but he couldn't say it.

Where is this protection? The expert sent by Fang Xie is next to his Lord. Today he is a guard and tomorrow he may be an assassin. But now those people in the moon shadow hall threaten him. He can't refuse Fang Xie for Gao Kaitai. The feeling of suffocation in his heart almost made him have an impulse to roar. He looked at Gao Kaitai. Gao Kaitai's face was also ugly.

……

……

On the way back from chunboting City, Wu Yidao couldn't help but ask Fang about lingmen pass. Fang Xie smiled and said, "the place is so important that I'd better hold it in my own hands. Gao Kaitai didn't collude with the Mongolian Yuan people, and his subordinates in the lingmen pass may not have. When he withdrew, I might as well fight down myself. Also let Gao Kaitai know what I should do without him."
