Xie Daojiang frowned slightly. What do you mean by this? Do you want to say that the conditions proposed by Qin this time are still a test? If we give in, they will attack with all their strength?
Liu Yu said seriously: "I thought we must first figure out the real opponent. Only in this way can we make a reasonable and correct judgment. Now it seems that our enemy is the demon thief, but in fact the real enemy hidden behind is Tiandao Alliance.
Meng Chang nodded: "I agree with Jinu's opinion on this point. The demon thieves raised an army this time. They will never cause such a storm by themselves, especially the means and tactics used to defeat Xi Le's army this time." The tactics you used when you faced the black-robed Murong Chui this time in Nanyan are almost exactly the same. The immortal monsters carried by the Kongming lanterns falling from the sky, and the large number of wooden armor mechanisms, except for the armored cavalry, almost everything you encountered, I hope Le Quan met.
Liu Yu frowned slightly. How did you know about the situation on the battlefield?
Meng Chang sighed: "I have my own spies, not only in our army but also among the demon thieves. I have reminded Xi Le many times before, telling him not to be careless. He must wait for you to come back and join forces to defeat the thieves. , but in the end, he was still fooled because of his utilitarianism. Moreover, the letter you sent to Xile was also tampered with. The letter Xile received said that you only gave him the governorship of Jingzhou, There was no mention of Shangshu Ling and the commander of the Beifu Army at all."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "It seems that the power of the Tiandao Alliance exceeds our imagination. The cloak still has not surfaced, but it can create such a big move. This time the Qin army and the demon thief came forward together. Come on." , I thought that the cloak was still controlling us behind the scenes, and this letter of credence was just to test us."
Xie Daoju shook his head in disbelief. Then why not just join forces and attack Jin Dynasty at the same time? Wouldn't it be unnecessary to test with credentials like this?
Liu Yu said coldly: "Because the opponent doesn't know my real trump card and whether I can hide my strength. Just like when Sun En attacked Jingkou, it seemed that Da Jin could no longer resist, but I can use Murong Lan to stay in Jingkou. We stored weapons and temporarily armed nearly 10,000 Jingkou elders to participate in the battle. Taking advantage of our combat effectiveness and combat skills, we defeated the army of monster thieves who were far more numerous than us in one fell swoop.”
It's the same this time. We go deep into Nanyan alone and have to face all the evil technologies of the Tiandao Alliance, as well as the armored cavalry that have been rampant in the north for many years. It seems that we have no chance of winning, but after more than a year, we have After defeating Nanyan, they secretly spread the plague. They expected to use this method to wipe out our army in one fell swoop, but they discovered it in time and detoxified it. Now they can't predict our success. Is the army really suffering from the epidemic, or is it a bluff? Because soldiers use deceit to deceive their strength, and the truth is false. 「
Xie Daozu nodded: "So, seeing that you dared to return to Jiankang, they didn't dare to act rashly. They thought you had enough assurance and confidence to come back, right?"
Liu Yu sighed: "Madam, you really shouldn't have let Tao Yuanming come over. It's hard to determine the identity of this person now. Whether he is a member of the Tiandao Alliance or not, I can't draw a conclusion. I have been asking Fatty to investigate. And just now I gave our military information to I revealed something, and it’s really not a good thing for him to hear it now.”
Meng Chang gritted his teeth: "Then just kill him to avoid future troubles.
Liu Yu frowned: "That's not possible. Tao Yuanming is too famous. If I attack him at this time, everyone in the world will be in danger. Moreover, I want to borrow this person again." If you conduct some tests, you might be able to get the inside story of the Tiandao Alliance from him.
Meng Chang sighed: "But bluffing without strength can't scare anyone. In any case, Tianshi Dao's soldiers and horses will definitely attack Jiankang quickly. With the troops we have now, it will be difficult to resist. If Jiankang happens, If Kang can't hold on, what should we do?"
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "Our Jiangbei and Qingzhou can send 60,000 to 70,000 reinforcements. As long as it takes a month, this army can go into battle. Before I came, I had given a secret order to let the sea ships in Donglai area Transport the troops infected with the epidemic from Qingzhou, take the sea route to Hudu or Kuaiji, and then come to rescue Jiankang from Wudi. As long as Jiankang can hold on for a month, the situation can be reversed.
But now we need to show strength and conceal the movements of the army in Qingzhou.
, The reason why the Qin army is now approaching the border of Yuzhou but not taking the initiative to attack is to see if we are really submissive. If we agree to his condition and hand over Miaoyin, then they will think that our strength is insufficient. They would rather hand over Miaoyin than beg for external help. In this way, instead of fighting the monster thieves, they will attack Qingzhou and Jiangbei with all their strength to hold back our reinforcements from the north. Support the demon thieves. "
The excuse they can come up with is to help Sima Guobo and Sima Chuzhi return. They did not write these requirements in the credential to leave room. If we refuse the return and pardon of these two traitors, then they will You can send troops to attack openly, and it can even be said to be attacking Liu Yu instead of becoming an enemy of Jin. 「
Meng Chang's eyes were shining with light, and he said thoughtfully: "From your analysis, they are indeed vicious. So is the purpose of the Qin army to test the strength of our troops? Are you so sure? The Qin army is also controlled by the Tiandao Alliance?"
Liu Yu sighed: "This is just my intuition and guess, but in my opinion, when Murong Chui was in black robe, the Qin army might not be under his control, otherwise, he wouldn't be in extreme danger. When Guanggu was besieged, the Qin army only issued threats instead of coming in force. "
But Kumarajiva did send us as an envoy and threatened us. Judging from this incident, I think it is possible that Kumarajiva in the Later Qin Dynasty colluded with the cloak, but it was not the black robe. people. Now that the black-robed Murong Chui has been eliminated, Doupeng controls the entire Tiandao Alliance, the demon thieves and the Qin army came at the same time. I don't think it is a coincidence, so we cannot accept their request, but must flatly reject it.
Xie Daoti breathed a long sigh of relief, but if the Qin army directly attacks Qingzhou and Yuzhou, and then attacks Jiangbei, you can withdraw Qingzhou's troops and horses now and let the Qin army try it out, or simply drag them in Qingzhou and be unable to return. Jiankang defends the city, what should we do?"
