"What Brother Xu means is that the two armies are likely to defeat the Beimang army?" Mo Dongsheng asked.
"If nothing else happens, there may be a situation of conflict."
Hearing Xu Maocai's answer, everyone was confused. Is this Beimang army crazy? Or do they want this situation? Then why do you want to bet with Xu Que again?
"Young Master, can you show me the letter of your bet with Prince Beimang?" Li An asked quickly.
"Can."
Xu Que didn't hesitate at all and directly showed the receipt of the bet between him and Kang Xingye to Li An for review.
After Li An finished issuing the receipt, his expression was a little strange.
"Uncle Li An, can you see any problem?" Xu Que asked quickly.
"No, it's a normal bet." Li An replied.
"Then what does your expression mean?" Xu Que was a little confused, so he simply asked directly.
"Li doesn't understand what Beimang is planning." Li An stroked his black beard and said, "If Beimang's army and the two armies are fighting equally, how can they attack Zheyang County?" Huh? And the time is not right either..."
"Time? What time?" Xu Que asked quickly.
"The end time of the siege of Zheyang County." Li An said: "If we are to besiege a huge city with all our strength, the preparation time for the siege will be more than half a month. In addition to the preparation time, the siege party also has to consider The conditions for attacking the city wall. Take our Zheyang County as an example. If we want to completely attack it, it will take many lives to fill it. The second is the conditions for the defensive side. If Beimang attacks Zheyang County with all its strength, They will definitely pay a heavy price, so they will basically fight a protracted war of attrition, and if they fight like this, they may not be able to do it in two months, and the most important thing is that they will have to fight two armies!"
Everyone nodded, agreeing very much with Li An's statement, but the words came back again. Did the Beimang Prince have a kind heart and wanted to make a truce with Dayan?
No one would think so, after all, they know the habits of Beimang people very well...
"Is there a possibility that Beimang wants to use Xizuo to send generals to Zheyang County?" After Liu Bo asked the question, he looked at Ma Guanxing.
"Probably not. With the prestige of my Ma family, no matter how shameless the court is, they cannot send generals in." Ma Guanxing said.
Xu Que very much agreed with Ma Guanxing's words. After all, sending him once was enough. If he sent him again, it would be a slap in the face of General Ma, and he would do it in front of all the civil and military officials of the Great Yan...
"If the two armies are defeated, what will be the consequences?" Xu Fan asked a question at this time.
It would have been better not to ask this question. Once asked, everyone looked at Xu Fan, because no one seemed to have considered that the two armies would be defeated. Even Xu Que had not considered this issue...
It's not that everyone hasn't thought about this, but it's difficult to defeat a two-pronged army of 200,000...and the four generals sent are not idiots, so no one thinks about this. on the one hand.
"If Beimang's army is really defeated, I'm afraid this Great Flame will change..." Xu Maofeng sighed.
"You can't say that. If two armies of 200,000 people are defeated by three formations, the court will probably change its coach. After all, no one can bear this responsibility." Xu Maocai said after thinking.
"If something like this really happens, it might not be good for our Zheyang County." Mo Dongsheng reminded.
"Yeah." Xu Maofeng nodded: "When the time comes, I'm afraid that the change of coaches between the two armies will affect our Zheyang County."
Everyone nodded in unison, they all agreed with this conjecture, and Xu Maofeng's words seemed to wake up Xu Que, because he finally thought about what Bei Mang was planning!
Just when everyone was thinking about how they could spend two months, Xu Que suddenly laughed, which shocked everyone.
"You brat, why are you laughing so hard?" Xu Maocai looked at Xu Que angrily.
"Father, I know what Beimang wants to do!"
After hearing Xu Que's words, everyone was shocked and quickly looked at Xu Que, because they all wanted to know what Beimang was planning.
"If you know, tell me quickly so that we can come up with a countermeasure!" Xu Maofeng said quickly.
"Actually, Beimang is planning a game!" Xu Que's smile faded, and he sat back on his seat and said, "At first we thought Beimang was really going to give up on Zheyang County, but that's not the case. They wanted to make a huge game. This The game makers are also quite powerful. If it weren’t for my eldest brother and uncle, I might not be able to figure it out..."
"Pick the key points!" Xu Maocai interrupted with a heart-wrenching tone.
"Oh, why are you so anxious?" Xu Que rolled his eyes at Xu Maocai: "In fact, this situation is a method of siege and borrowing force. The Beimang army seems to be fighting two armies, but in fact there is only one army, and the army here is the southern army. , as long as they defeat the southern commander's camp, the imperial court will find a way to remedy it. The only way to remedy it is of course to change the commander and provide supplies, and this is the first result Beimang wants. And the second one Yes, that means the situation between the DPRK and China is going to be chaotic. Because of Dayan’s successive failures, Qu Zhongyi will definitely take the blame, so who will be the most powerful?..."
"Gu Yongnian!" Mo Dongsheng, Xu Maocai and Liu Bo said in unison.
"That's right!" Xu Que continued with a smile: "If Gu Yongnian gains power, he will definitely stand up and take charge of the overall situation. Not to mention that our Zheyang County may not be protected by then, I am afraid that the dog emperor will also be defeated by him. Killed!"
Hearing Xu Que's words, everyone broke into a cold sweat. Regicide, this is a big deal!
"What should we do?" Ma Guanxing asked.
In fact, he really wanted to tell his father about the matter, but Xu Que said that General Ma would not believe it at all, because in General Ma's eyes, he, Gu Yongnian, was already among their generals, and he was very important. That kind of...
"Unite Qu Zhongyi!" Xu Que replied with slightly narrowed eyes.
What?
Everyone was shocked, as if they heard something incredible.
"Qu Zhongyi? Are you sure you want to do this?" Xu Maofeng asked Xu Que.
"The only way now is to drag them away with two armies. If they are divided by the Beimang army, the result will only be a losing streak!"
"Then why don't you tell the Guan brothers the news? If they know..."
"It's useless!" Xu Que waved his hand to interrupt his father: "Let's not talk about whether the Guan brothers can believe it. If we report to them, they won't read it, because they are the emperor's people, and the only one who can pass is Qu. Loyalty!”
"If you do this, do you know the consequences?" Xu Maofeng asked Xu Que calmly.
Xu Cao nodded and said with heavy words: "Of course I know the consequences, but this is the only way out now. If we don't do this, Zheyang County will become a prison. By then, Gu Yongnian will pretend to be an imperial edict." , directly mobilize his people, it will be too late to regret it!"
After hearing Xu Que's explanation, Xu Maofeng asked, "What if I send troops to sneak attack the Beimang army?"
"Unless the Guan Brotherhood's entire army attacks, otherwise, uncle, you and your army will die..."
Everyone was silent. If they really want to unite with Qu Zhongyi, it means that the Xu family will be branded as the emperor. When the emperor comes to settle accounts with the Xu family again, then the Xu family can only resign themselves to fate...
"No, there is still a way!" Li An suddenly said: "Since Beimang doesn't want the two armies to meet, then they will definitely send an army of no less than 50,000 people. What if we attack another army instead?"
"That's right. If we don't fight against Uqaida, it would be better to find their weakness." Ma Guanxing happily agreed.
Li An's words seemed to open a breakthrough for Xu Que, and a plan suddenly flashed through his mind!
"I have a solution!" Xu Que stood up with a smile and bowed respectfully to Li An.
Everyone was a little confused. Wasn't there anything that could be done before? Now, is there any way?
