Haicang Town.
Seeing that Yi La Chu Cai had a strange look on his face and Xu Jin was sweating profusely, Guo Ning stood up to greet him and asked with a smile: "What happened?"
"Li Quan rebelled."
"What?" Guo Ning was a little stunned for a moment: "Didn't he just go out as a messenger? How can this person act so decisively?"
Xu Jin shook his head repeatedly: "According to the report from the spies, Li Quan sent an envoy to deal with us, but he went to Wanyan Salara to kneel down and beg for mercy, and even brought generous gifts. As a result, I don't know what evil he did. Yan Sala was surrounded by soldiers in Linzi City. He fought his way out with his superb skills, and then hid in the stable dung pile in the city for two days. Finally, he found an opportunity to escape. As soon as he arrived in Weizhou, he immediately Raise troops."
"What's the situation in Weizhou right now?"
Xu Wei took out the military report from his arms: "Yesterday, Li Quanlian went to Beihai and Changle and slaughtered four Jurchens who were guarding a thousand-household military camp. The local people were like clouds of followers and reunited to unite, and the bandits plundered them. They They are all like those of Yang An'er and Liu Erzu, wearing red clothes and coats to identify each other... Now most of Weizhou is in Li Quan's hands."
"He has some skills." Guo Ning checked the military report, turned it over twice, and threw it down.
Yi La Chucai continued: "Li Quan has always been known for being good at maneuvering, but once the Mongolian army came, the situation in Shandong changed drastically. He had less and less room for maneuver, and the harder he tried, the more disgusting it was in vain. On the contrary, once Determined to rebel, relying on the local power in Weizhou that has been operating for many years, it is quite a turbulent style."
"Now that Weizhou has been acquired, what do you think he will do next?"
Xu Quan took the map and spread it out on the table: "Commander Jie, please see, Li Quanyin is a powerful man in Shandong after Yang An'er and Liu Erzu. He is in Weizhou, but his power and influence extend to Yidu Prefecture." And Binzhou, Laizhou, Zizhou. The local powerful people here in Laizhou have all been broken up and reorganized by us, so there is nothing to worry about. But in other places, this person has intertwined influence with the imperial court, and secretly has many complicated backgrounds. It was precisely because of this that Wanyan Salara wanted to attack him, but he didn't dare to punish him, and instead did something unworthy like an assassination and ambush. Now that Li Quan has rebelled, within a few days, Yidu has There will definitely be riots in the prefectures and prefectures in the north, and Wanyan Salara will be in trouble."
"You mean, Li Quan will take advantage of the situation to attack Yidu?"
"That will happen later, but not now. And the state capital north of Yidu is in riots, and Wanyan Sala may not be able to attack Weizhou for a while."
Guo Ning laughed: "Wanyan Salara will not attack Weizhou, and Li Quan will not attack Yidu. The two of them have a tacit understanding. So where will Li Quan go? Are you coming to attack my Laizhou Dingjun?"
"No, no. Commander Jie defeated the Mongolian army of 10,000 people with thousands of troops. The army was so powerful that Li Quan could not match it. He didn't have the guts to stroke Commander Jie's beard. I thought... Commander Jie, please look at it. "
Xu Jin pointed at the map and said, "Li Quan will attack here."
"Linqu County in Yidu Prefecture? To the south of Linqu County... Mulingguan?"
"Linqu is the place where Meng'an's army in Yidu Prefecture gathers to conquer the enemy. It is full of ordnance and food supplies. Muling Pass is a natural barrier in the south of Qi, which connects Mizhou, Juzhou and other places, allowing Yang An'er's power to extend to Shandong The northern pass.”
Guo Ning leaned over to look at the map and muttered: "The Mongols have retreated to Dezhou, and Li Quan is out of reach. His previous collusion with the Mongols must have offended me and Wanyan Salara. In this case, we can still The only ones who gave him the power and supported him to stir up troubles were Yang An'er and Liu Erzu, two long-standing rebels."
"Exactly!" Xu Jin clapped his hands.
"Jie Shuai, once Li Quan takes this place, Yang An'er, Liu Erzu, and Li Quan will be able to support each other, and the three of them will control the central area of Shandong's east and west roads, including Taishan, Lushan, Yishan, and Mengshan. As a base for them to roam freely. When Yang An'er and Liu Erzu's troops emerge from the deep mountains and ravines, they may go straight to Yidu and fight Wanyan Sala. The situation in Shandong as a whole has changed again. Turn the world upside down.”
Guo Ning stared at the map for a long time: "Will Yang An'er and Liu Erzu really respond to Li Quan?"
"Nine times out of ten."
"How can I see it?"
"Liu Erzu has been trapped in the mountains of Zizhou and Tai'an Prefecture for a long time. Yang An'er fought in Juzhou and Mizhou for several months. Although the momentum was great, there was no real result. No matter how famous and prestige they are, if they have always been It's just a small fight, and sooner or later, your family's prestige will be exhausted. Now that Li Quan has raised an army, if he and the two don't follow up, how can they order heroes from all over the country?"
Xu Wei turned around and looked at the assassinated Chucai, and then said: "What's more, the Mongolian army invaded Shandong and ultimately brought heavy losses to the imperial troops and horses. If we don't take advantage of the situation, how can we just wait for the imperial court to recover its strength?" , and still force them into the countryside?"
Guo Ning pondered for a long time and nodded: "Old Xu is very discerning."
"Don't dare to take it seriously."
Xu Jin bowed to thank him, stood up and asked, "Jie Shuai, how should we deal with it?"
Guo Ning continued to stare at the map and did not answer.
Xu Wei waited for a moment and couldn't help but added: "Master Huifeng's fleet will go to Xiaoqing River again; the troops of our four newly-organized divisions will continue to go west today to meet the refugees. Li Quan suddenly came to this place, disrupting all our arrangements. And if Yang An'er and Liu Erzu's troops cross Muling Pass, they can freely handle things... Ahem, even if we have some friendship with Yang An'er, But who knows if this guy will fall out? If anything happens, our Laizhou territory may not be safe."
"you mean?"
Xu Quan's fighting spirit was high: "Our army's four newly-organized divisions have more than 4,000 soldiers and horses, and have veterans from hundreds of battles as the backbone. They have set off one after another and will go to Weizhou and Yidu. Since Li If Quan is seeking death, Commander Jie might as well use him as the main force to capture Weizhou, kill Li Quan, and calm Shandong!"
"What do you think, Qing Jin?"
"We are about to build a place, and the surrounding area must be calm before we can spread out. Li Quan's rebellion has a great impact on me and is very hateful. But the officers and soldiers of our army headquarters are extremely tired, and they can really fight again Huh? It should be noted that resorting to military force is a taboo! And those four commanders, after all, 80% of them are young men newly recruited into the army. Without long-term training, they will not have very good combat effectiveness. What if there is someone on the battlefield? What a loss, I'm afraid it will only shake the military's power, but cause the thieves to underestimate our navy, and cause other troubles."
Yi La Chucai has been busy caring for the soldiers these days, and he has actually seen a lot of miserable situations, so he is more cautious: "I think we can just ignore Yang An'er and his like. If they go to Zhanyidu and other places, we will turn back and head east. Complete control of Dengzhou and Ninghai Prefecture. Although there are fewer refugees from Jinan, Yidu and other places, the military and civilians of Dengzhou and Ninghai Prefecture are compensated, which is not bad at all."
One of the two was radical, the other was steady. They both expressed their thoughts, and then looked at Guo Ning.
Guo Ning held the desk with both hands and stared at Muling Pass on the map.
After a long time, he said slowly: "Li Quan is nothing to be afraid of. However, if Li Quan leads troops to attack Muling Pass, Yang An'er will definitely lead his troops to respond. If he just sits back and watches those rebels in the mountains and swamps gather on the side of Laizhou , it’s a big trouble after all. I think I should go see Yang An’er and set some rules.”
