It is no exaggeration to say that Lu Tianxing lifted a stone and hit himself in the foot. He already knew that the big four were the behind the scenes manipulators of the plain base. Just because he was worried that the big four would not be controlled by the Military Commission, he secretly colluded with Director Tian and abandoned Lian Hai, who had the ambition to be an emperor.
The plan is good, and the idea of supporting puppets is also in line with the consistent practice of the Military Commission, but it ignores one point. None of the big four and Lianhai is a fuel-saving lamp, so they can't wait to die. Moreover, Lu Tianxing underestimated the influence and control of the big four. If the big four did not fantasize about the Military Commission, even the conspiracy and rebellion of director Hai Hotan had no chance to germinate.
Of course, this is also the main reason for the failure of the big four. For the fantasy of the Military Commission, the small abacus is popping. They don't want to be used by the Military Commission and want to please the Military Commission. This is the reason for the final collapse.
The rebellion in the plain base subsided, but it was far from over. By asking some parties, the whole context of the unrest gradually surfaced.
Lu Ziming can be said to be a hindsight. Holding the mentality of playing soy sauce, he laughed to the end. There was a farce in which the mantis caught the cicada and the Yellow finches were behind, and Lu Ziming watched under the tree to make profits. It had to be said that it was a coincidence. The initiator ran away, and all the participants in the unrest saw God, so they were suitable to play soy sauce Lu Ziming.
As soon as they returned to Xincheng, Xiangxiang and Zhang Yechang came. Xiangxiang is now in charge of civil affairs and took over the military and political power when Lu Ziming left Xincheng. In addition to the work of the Research Institute, Zhang Yechang also hung a title of military staff. They came to the door one after another. Lu Ziming knew something had happened.
Zhang Yechang still has messy hair. It seems that she has been buried in the research pile for a long time and has not been exposed to the sun. Xiangxiang is not. She is a professional woman's dress. Her sapphire blue embroidered shirt and black straight skirt look solemn and capable, just in line with her identity.
"Zi Ming, your guess is correct. A hundred miles south of Xincheng, you found two armies. They should be the rebels before Jincheng base?"
Lu Tianxing's words alerted Lu Ziming that the plain base was not the only force to attack Xincheng, that is, in addition to the plain base, the Military Commission also cooperated with other forces to attack Xincheng.
Looking at the whole Shanxi Province, there are no more powerful forces than one hand. Hacheng and Yuncheng have the strongest strength, but they are too far away from Xincheng. It is no exaggeration to send an army to Xincheng. It is good to have half of the people alive to see Xincheng. Therefore, it is almost impossible for the Military Commission to unite hacheng and Yuncheng, Hacheng and Yuncheng will not jump into the bottomless pit foolishly.
The rest is only the three armies that defected from Jincheng, not far or near Xincheng. As long as there are enough interests, it is not impossible to attack Xincheng.
Lu Ziming's conjecture has now been confirmed. There are two unidentified troops approaching Xincheng. The situation is grim.
Zhang Yechang showed a seemingly kind but treacherous face: "I've sent someone to investigate, and there will be news back soon, but don't worry about it. Things haven't been bad beyond control...".
Why is it out of control? Is it out of control to let all the forces in Jin besiege themselves?
Zhang Yechang seemed to see through what Lu Ziming was thinking, and there was no panic on his face: "within a hundred miles, we only found two armies, that is, there was another army that did not participate. Of course, this is not the point. The point is how strong these two armies are?"
Lu Ziming shook his head and said he didn't know at all.
"When the first three armies defected and fled from Jincheng, the number of each army was no more than 5000. As far as I know, the three armies were in a bad situation at the beginning. Although they incorporated some surrounding civilian armed forces, their overall strength did not rise but fell due to long-term fighting with surrounding mutant creatures. Now the active force should not exceed 3000 or 4000, that is to say, these three armies The team can send up to 2000 soldiers for long-distance operations. Is it possible for such a small force to attack Xincheng? "
After listening to Zhang Yechang's words, Lu Ziming put down half his heart: "what do you mean, these two armies can't fight head-on at all, and they can undertake the task of sneak attack at most?"
"No...!" Zhang Yechang shook his head and said calmly, "they won't even take part in the sneak attack?"
"Why?"
"Let's assume the troops of jiutun attacking Xincheng..." Zhang Yechang saw that the more worried Lu Ziming was, the slower he spoke: "First of all, we have calculated how many troops the old village can send. The maximum is 8000, which is the limit of the old village. If the plain base still exists, we can also send four or five thousand people, plus four thousand of the other two armies, the total force will reach about 16000. This is not a small strength. Xincheng can't stop it...".
"But now the plain base army does not exist. The number of troops attacking Xincheng has been reduced by four or five thousand, which is equal to one-third less. The situation has been reversed at once. Among these armies, the plain base has the strongest combat effectiveness, followed by the other two armies. The combat effectiveness of jiutun can only be at the bottom. It's hard to say how much 8000 people can play Let's look back. The purpose of the other two armies is that if the war goes well, these two armies will take advantage of the fire, but if the combat effectiveness of jiutun is too weak, what will happen if these two armies are the main attack? Attacking Xincheng will inevitably pay a heavy price. Do you think they will do so? "
Lu Ziming shook his head and still didn't understand what Zhang Yechang wanted to express!
"All right! Transposition thinking, if you command these two armies, you have to pay a heavy price and sacrifice at least more than half of your troops, but you end up making wedding clothes for others, would you do so?"
"Of course not!"
Lu Ziming has understood Zhang Yechang's meaning. These two armies are here to make soy sauce. If they can take advantage of it, they will naturally help jiutun attack Xincheng. If the war comes to an impasse, the two armies can't fight with their old capital and Lu Ziming.
Zhang Yechang said with a smile: "if there are three armies, we should be careful, but now there are two armies. Do you think these two armies will be wary of the other army...".
Lu Ziming patted his forehead and had a new understanding of Zhang Yechang. Old slick is old slick. Even his opponent calculated.
"These three armies are all rebels. They have conflicts with Li Juan. Do you think they will sincerely help Li Juan fight Xincheng? This is one of them. Second, these three armies will guard against each other. Once their strength is damaged, how can the rebels let go of the opportunity of annexation? So they won't fight at all. It's just a bluff because of the pressure of the Military Commission. Really If we fight, we will certainly push three obstacles and delay time. We will never fight with Xincheng... "
