Xu Daofu shook his head: "Peizu, it is easy for us to destroy Zhu Chaoshi and this Jin army, but if we destroy them, our strength and position will be exposed. Liu Daogui in Jiangling will definitely be prepared. By defending Gangneung, we will lose the suddenness of this battle."
"As long as Jiangling is captured and Liu Daogui is captured alive, then Zhu Chaoshi's head will be taken by his subordinates and delivered to our account without us having to kill him. Why rush for this moment?!"
Xu Peizu nodded thoughtfully and said: "The deputy leader is right. As long as Jiangling is captured, this little Zhu Chao Stone is nothing. But these Jin troops are accumulating and camping here, and they are fighting against Yu Yue in Jiangzhou. The united forces seem to be trying to take action against Yingjiu's headquarters. Yingjiu is the deputy general who cooperates to cover our actions. Although he is a member of the leader Lu, now that the divine religion is at a slight disadvantage, we need to unite. At this time, should we also care about their life and death?"
Xu Daofu didn't blink an eyelid: "I have said it many times, and I will say it again. The target is Wulindu. After landing, the whole army will spread out and go straight to Jiangling. I will not care about other things."
At this point, he paused: "If I want to save Yingjiu, wouldn't it be better to go up and kill Zhu Chaoshi now? I can even let go of Zhu Chaoshi, the piece of flesh that reaches my mouth, so what good does Yingjiu do? Saved. When you join a divine religion, you must be prepared to die in battle and sacrifice at every moment. Yingjiu is like this, and so am I!"
The dozen or so Tianshi Dao leaders around them all looked solemn and said in unison: "I respectfully obey the order of Commander Xu!"
Xu Daofu's eyes narrowed slightly: "It was the Heavenly Master who helped me this time. The Yongzhou soldiers and horses actually left Jiangling at this time, and Zhu Chaoshi's troops moved forward to Yuzhang. In this way, Jiangling's soldiers and horses It will not exceed 20,000. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Now I am sending an order to the main force of 32,000 troops, with Peizu's 5,000 men as the vanguard, to make a surprise attack on Wulindu. Within half a day, the entire army needs to go ashore to launch an attack. .”
Xu Peizu's eyes were filled with light and he said loudly: "No."
Xu Daofu's eyes flashed fiercely: "Peizu, don't you want to be the vanguard? Now I'm giving you the opportunity to be the vanguard, don't let me down."
Xu Peizu laughed: "Look at me, deputy leader, the defenders of Wulindu are only a thousand, I promise to take it within two hours!"
Xu Daofu licked his lips: "Just taking it is not enough. I will give you five hundred general swordsmen. No one is allowed to slip through the net to report the news, and the defenders are not allowed to send out smoke to notify the direction of Jiangling."
Xu Peizu's expression changed slightly: "No one is allowed to escape? This, this seems a bit difficult."
Xu Daofu said coldly: "You ask five hundred swordsmen to land on the dangerous shoals north of Wulin first. Instead of attacking the ferry, they will go back to Wulin Crossing in a roundabout way. If any enemy troops escape, quickly rob and kill them. Attack. When you attack, be faster, move harder, and don't give them the opportunity to send out smoke reports. Also, there are my people in Wulindu. When the time comes, you send out three red smoke pillars before attacking, and he will naturally take action. "
Xu Peizu's eyes lit up: "There are actually people from the deputy leader at the ferry. Now I feel relieved. Order!"
Xu Daofu smiled slightly: "Go ahead. I hope to be standing at Wulin Ferry tomorrow morning."
Jiangling, the main hall of the governor's office.
Liu Daogui sat calmly on the handsome platform in the main hall. There were only him and Yu Yue in the entire hall. All the scribes and guards retreated outside the entire courtyard. It was already dark, and the candlelight was gently swaying, reflecting the two people. There was a mixture of yin and yang on his face, but Yu Yue kept biting his lips and said nothing.
Liu Daogui smiled slightly and broke the unspeakable awkward atmosphere: "Yu Gong, it seems that you still have some opinions and emotions about me sending Zhu Chaoshi to replace you, and the return of the Yu family's nephews."
Yu Yue raised her head and looked at Liu Daogui: "Why did Zheng Xi say such a thing? Now that you are willing to see me instead of putting me in jail, I am already very grateful to you. In other words, you want to Have you asked me clearly here?"
Liu Daogui smiled and waved his hand: "Where did you think you were? Why should I put you in jail? You are a meritorious minister, and it is too late to show your merits and be promoted. Even if your nephews are a little mischievous, you are at best a restraint and discipline. If you are not strong enough, you can offset these mistakes with a little effort. Also, when we fought together before, didn't we agree that you call me Daogui and I call you Yu Gong? Why do we have to have such identities now? ?”
Yu Yue said bitterly: "Now you are the governor of Jingzhou, the general who conquers the west, and the governor of the four states, and I am just a soldier in the palace of General Wei who joins the army. And my boss, General Wei, was defeated and lost his power. Now, I am your subordinate now, and you can kill me if you send Zhu Chaoshi, how dare I call you brothers like this again?"
Liu Daogui said calmly: "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. Don't look up to or look down on people based on their temporary status. Yu Gong, you should understand this truth. If you understand it earlier, you won't offend Xi Le. , so that after our Beifu generals gained power, their lives were so difficult."
A trace of regret flashed across Yu Yue's face: "I just regret that no one has told me this before. I was young and frivolous and disrespected poor people. I should be punished like this. The dilemma I have been facing for more than ten years now is because of this roast goose." As retribution for the incident, I left Marshal Liu and went to Xi Le to join the army. Wasn’t it just to repay the debt I owed back then?”
Liu Daogui nodded: "We have always had a good relationship, and among the children of the aristocratic family, you are considered to be the most enterprising one. I actually appreciate this. Even among the nephews and nephews of the Xie family, there are not many like you. In fact, you There is no need to vote for my eldest brother one moment and Xile the other. As long as you act upright and perform meritorious service openly, no one can harm you."
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "But now don't you just doubt whether I can act upright? Don't you just doubt that I am fighting in Jiangzhou and have other external help?"
Liu Daogui put away his smile and said calmly: "This is why I want to see you alone. We are friends and brothers who have passed away. So, no matter what happens to you, as long as you tell me clearly, I will do my best to help you." You asked for my life, even if you join the Tiandao Alliance, as long as you are willing to turn around and make peace, I will ensure that nothing happens to you."
Yu Yue's expression changed: "Are you kidding me? If I were really from the Tiandao Alliance, would your elder brother let me go?"
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "Zhu Chaoshi also joined the Tianshi Tao, and he redeemed himself through meritorious service. Sometimes he is forced by the situation or goes astray. It doesn't matter. As long as he is willing to sincerely repent and turn around, then Dajin, my eldest brother , I will definitely give you a chance to be a new person." (End of Chapter)
