Wen Zhong followed the stroke that Wei Qing slid on the map. His eyes lit up and he couldn't help but admire Wei Qing's boldness.

He was planning to provoke Tuoba Tao's Dongxianbei and Temujin Mongols after provoking Nurhachi's Manchus!

If we really followed Wei Qing's route, we would have almost completely circled the grassland and made a big circle directly along the grassland.

"General Wen, if our army succeeds in this battle, the enemy will not be able to predict that our army is not returning south to Youzhou, but all the way to the west!" Wei Qing said with a half-smile.

"General, do you want to return to the Central Plains from Bingzhou or Hezhou?" Wen Zhong asked curiously, while secretly calculating the possibility of this route in his heart.

Returning to the Central Plains from Bingzhou or Hezhou is equivalent to taking a big detour on the grassland. The distance will be several times longer than before, and some variables may occur, but there are disadvantages and advantages!

Their fortress army was wreaking havoc on the grassland. How could the grassland army gathering outside Youzhou allow them to return safely from Youzhou? After those people got the news, they would definitely try their best to intercept them. They were not allowed to return to Youzhou smoothly.

Although Youzhou will definitely have a coalition of princes to respond when the time comes, the mobility and reaction capabilities of the coalition of princes are far inferior to that of the prairie cavalry, and the danger they will face will still be great.

Even if the enemy is ruthless, they can be annihilated on the way back to Youzhou.

As for Bingzhou or outside Hezhou, although there are large armies of grassland forces here, they are only a partial army after all. With that small number of people, and if the local Han army is willing to support them, there is no way to stop them from returning.

Moreover, if they attack Nurhachi's lair and then head west, they will definitely pass through Tuoba Tao and Temujin's territory. If they can also destroy these two places, it can be said that Their mission this time was definitely accomplished on an extraordinary scale.

By then, the grassland army that is confronting the coalition forces of the princes in Youzhou will not feel comfortable.

Moreover, how could Dong Xianbei let the Manchus enter their territory? Once they leave the fortress and enter Tuoba Tao's territory, if the Manchus have pursuers, there will definitely be conflicts between the East Xianbei and the Manchus. In serious cases, it will even affect Come to the alliance of several forces on the grassland. At that time, they can take the opportunity to get rid of the pursuers.

Even if the Manchu pursuers can attract some of Dong Xianbei's attention, then it will be easier for them to face the pursuit and interception of Dong Xianbei after entering Dong Xianbei.

"That's right!" Wei Qing replied with a smile.

Wen Zhong thought carefully about the pros and cons. After all, this route is several times farther than the direct return to Youzhou. During this period, the losses caused by the pursuit and interception in the grassland may not necessarily be greater than the direct breakthrough to Youzhou. The outer steppe army suffered few casualties.

But according to Wei Qing's route, the losses they caused to the grassland forces this time were absolutely huge, enough to make the grassland forces unable to breathe for many years in the future and no longer be able to pose a threat to the Central Plains.

If they can really do this, then it will be worth the loss no matter how big their army is.

In fact, Wei Qing had more considerations than Wen Zhong. In addition to these reasons, the reason why he wanted to make such a large circle on the grassland was that he wanted to cooperate with Meng Tian of Yanmen or Li Jing of Hezhou to solve the problem. Part of them is in trouble.

However, whether to go to Yanmen or Hezhou will depend on the specific situation at that time.



Time flies like an arrow, the sun and the moon fly by, and the night passes so quietly.

After a night's rest, the energy and energy of the soldiers who left the fortress had obviously improved a lot.

Inside the military tent, Wei Qing stared at the generals. Next, whether he will leave his name in history or fall short will depend on what happens next.

"Wei Zhang, General Taishi Ci, listen to your orders!" Wei Qing slowly named the names of the two generals in the tent.

"The general is here!" After hearing Wei Qing call out his name, Wei Zhang and Tai Shici perked up and immediately went out to reply.

Champion Hou's Fenglang Juxu, and even Dou Xian's Leshi Yanran, have all become one of the targets of admiration or pursuit by future generations, and have been sung by future generations.

And if they can succeed in the next battle, as the generals participating this time, they will be the ones who will be sung and admired by future generations.

Therefore, even though they knew that the journey ahead would be difficult and that some of them might never come back, no one had anything to fear.

"Two generals, the concealment of our army in this operation is the top priority, and it is related to whether our army's final goal in this battle can be achieved! The two generals need to spread the scouts as far away as possible, and we must let our army Keep abreast of the surrounding developments in order to respond as quickly as possible!" Wei Qing looked at Wei Zhang and Tai Shici, his voice full of seriousness.

"Don't worry, general. If there is any negligence, I will come and see you!" Wei Zhang and Tai Shici replied equally seriously.

In fact, these two people would never dare to be careless. In such a grand event, if anything goes wrong because of the two of them, they themselves will not let it go.

"Wenzhong, Lu Wenlong, obey the order!" Wei Qing named the two people again.

"The general is here!"

"Wen Zhong will be the leader, Lu Wenlong will be the deputy, and the vanguard of 20,000 people will lead the way!" Wei Qing said, looking at the two mighty generals below.

"The last general takes command!"

"If you encounter a small tribe of less than 10,000 people on the way, you two can handle it on your own. Remember, you must not leave any trouble behind!" Wei Qing warned.

Among the generals present, except for himself who was to be in charge of the central army, if the others were talking about the ability to lead the army, Wen Zhong should be the leader. Therefore, Wei Qing gave the important task of the vanguard army to Wen Zhong.

As for Lu Wenlong, it was to send a powerful general to assist Wen Zhong. Although Wen Zhong was quite powerful, with only Ran Min superior to him among the army, he was unable to support himself alone, so it was still necessary to send someone to help.

Originally, this candidate should have been given to Ran Min, the strongest person in the army, but with Ran Min's unruly character, Wei Qing was worried that Wen Zhong might not be able to subjugate him, and it might even have the opposite effect.

Therefore, Wei Qing could only settle for the next best thing and choose one of the generals second only to Ran Min! Therefore, the candidates were targeted at Yingbu and Lu Wenlong.

However, Yingbu's forces and Wen Zhong's forces were almost incompatible. In the end, after counting, only Lu Wenlong was the most suitable.
