Wang Zhongde said in a deep voice: "Ah Shou, this is too risky. I know how much you want revenge, but this Northern Expedition is a big event, so don't act on impulse."
Liu Jingxuan touched his nose: "Zhongde, this is not an act of impulsiveness, but a well-thought-out strategy. Since the defeat of the conquest of Shu, I have been dismissed from my post and idle at home. All I can think about every day is how to counterattack Nanyan. I have spent a lot of money on it." I have bribed many heroes on the border between Jin and Yan, and some of them are old members of our Liu family. They are familiar with the local terrain and are active between the two countries. They listen to my orders and can quickly attack once the order is given. Loot prefectures and counties, and even conquer natural dangers like Muling Pass!"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Ah Shou, you have been asking me to use this rare army in battle in the past few years. I have never used it because of my previous promise to Nan Yan. This time, it can finally be put to use, but the army No joke, can you really capture Muling Pass with this army?"
Liu Jingxuan said sternly: "For more than a year, these brothers of mine from the north have secretly come to Jin Dynasty in batches. They often practice this type of raid at Moling Pass outside Jiankang City, which has a terrain similar to Muling Pass. I have long been familiar with this style of fighting. I also have spies in Muling Pass. For this kind of attack, as long as the inside and outside are coordinated, there is no suspense with the current Muling Pass defenders of less than 300. Overnight, it will be Can be solved."
Liu Yu said seriously: "Then how much equipment and how many reinforcements do you need to take action?"
Liu Jingxuan shook his head: "No, this kind of surprise attack is not good if there are more people, especially if the garrison in Huaibei is used, the news will leak out. After it was decided to destroy Yan in the court that day, I had secretly ordered those Huaibei heroes to go to Muling They are concentrated in the Guan area and scattered and hidden in the nearby deep mountains and forests. Waiting for my order, as long as I bring more than 200 Ding tribes there and join these more than 300 people, it will be enough to seize the pass."
Zhu Lingshi suddenly said: "Even if Muling Pass is captured, how will we face Nan Yan's counterattack from behind? If Linqu's garrison is dispatched, I am afraid these hundreds of people will not be able to resist it."
Liu Jingxuan laughed: "Although Muling Pass is an important pass facing Dajin in the south, Daxian Mountain has dozens of miles of mountain roads. The canyons on both sides are high and deep, leaving only mountain roads that can allow four vehicles to pass. If an ambush is set up in advance, On the top of the mountain on both sides, even if thousands of Yan thieves come, there is nothing to fear. Besides, according to Jinu's arrangement, Beiqingzhou's army will sweep Shannanzhou County in advance to eliminate the threat from behind. Once Changmin's army arrives, Meet me at Mulingguan, then there will be no problem."
Liu Yu nodded, turned to Wang Zhene and said: "You will leave for Beiqingzhou immediately and meet up with Zhuge Changmin. Changmin's second brother Limin and his younger brother Youmin are both famous fierce generals, with a thousand soldiers around them. Most of the guards are people who have experienced hundreds of battles and are extremely fierce. You pass on my order and let the elders lead a large army to sweep Shannan Prefecture. These one thousand troops, led by you, the Li people, and the young people, go straight to Muling Pass. , if Ah Shou succeeds, then serve as a backup guard. If Ah Shou fails, then join forces with Ah Shou to attack Muling Pass. Be sure to capture Muling Pass at the very beginning and control the passage in and out of Daxian Mountain!"
Wang Zhene smiled slightly: "Yes."
Liu Yu looked at Liu Jingxuan: "Ah Shou, you proposed this strategy and you have been preparing for it for many years, but there is no joke in the army. If you fail this time, or there is a problem in the plan, then even I can't To protect you, we must engage in military law. Now think about it and see if there are any omissions. If you need my help, let me know as soon as possible."
Liu Jingxuan said loudly: "Jinnu, I have practiced this repeatedly for several years. I can figure out the garrison, rotation, and deployment of Muling Pass, even every post, every hidden card, and the height of the city wall with my eyes closed." , How to start the battle with the Yan Army's armored cavalry later on in the Linqu Plain is another matter, but leave the capture of Muling Pass to me."
Liu Yu nodded: "Be more careful and don't force it too hard. If the situation changes and we can't take it by force, just wait for the reinforcements from Zhen evil and Li Min to arrive. We will leave Daxian later and fight on the plains. I still need the best one." The cavalry general!"
Liu Jingxuan laughed: "Then I will wait for you at Muling Pass. Don't worry, this time I will only seize the pass and control the mountain road, and will not go half a step beyond Daxian Mountain. Huaibei is my world!"
Liu Yu stepped forward and hugged Liu Jingxuan tightly, patting him on the back: "Brother, I'm waiting for your good news."
Liu Jingxuan also patted Liu Yu on the back and whispered: "Sister-in-law..."
Liu Yu immediately let go of his hand and said in a deep voice: "I will handle this myself. We are only talking about state affairs now. Baron Liu Jingxuan of Wugang, now I will add you as the cavalry general. The Fuzhong Army consults to join the army. Lead the champion general and lead the troops first." , be the vanguard of the army and seize Muling Pass. The magistrate of Linli County in Tianmen County suppresses evil, the Sima of Beiqing Prefecture Zhuge Limin, and the school captain of Beiqing Prefecture Zhuge Limin are under your control."
Liu Jingxuan gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Yes!" He said, turned around and left.
Liu Yu suddenly said: "One more thing, this battle is a war between countries, a duel between Han and Hu, there is no personal feelings to talk about, no matter who is stopping you from seizing Muling Pass, there will be no mercy. You must complete the mission, and those who stand in front of you are all enemies, and there are no old feelings, do you understand?"
Liu Jingxuan's eyelids twitched, he hesitated for a moment, then sighed, cupped his hands and said: "I respectfully obey the orders of General Chariot and Cavalry, General, I will retire!"
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Zhene who was silent and said in a deep voice: "Zhene, don't hold back. Soldiers are very fast. Do you want to stay for lunch?"
Wang Zhene smiled and followed Liu Jingxuan out of the tent. Liu Yu looked at the silent generals in the tent and said with a smile: "Why, why do they look like this? It's because of their pioneering contributions." Have you taken it?"
Xiang Mi gritted his teeth: "Brother Jinu, what you just said was referring to my sister-in-law..."
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "There is no sister-in-law here, Sister Lan. There is only Princess Murong Lan of the Yan Kingdom. This battle is to destroy her motherland and kill other people, so there is nothing to say. It would be best if she is willing to surrender early." , if she stands in the Yan Kingdom and fights to the death with us, she is an enemy. When we are facing each other, we must not show mercy, because you all know her ability, and she will not show mercy to you. The matter of life and death on the battlefield, think about it. You die casually, don’t blame me for not reminding you!”
Meng Longfu gritted his teeth: "Then we'd better fight quickly, pass through Daxian Mountain quickly, and go straight to Linqu City. Once we gain a foothold in Lunan, Murong Chao will be captured without mercy. At that time, we can force They hand her back to her sister-in-law first, and then surrender. Perhaps, this is the best solution."
Liu Yu licked his lips: "So, Raptor, if you are asked to pass through Daxian quickly, how can you stand still in Linqu? What is the key to this battle?!"
