Chapter 429: Dazzling bait

A map of Luzhou was spread in front of everyone, and everyone's eyes were staring at Gongsun Changming, especially Tian Lingzi and Li Hai. In the previous military operations, the three groups of Gongsun Changming, Liu Ruyan and Tuhu decided how to go and fight. Even Li Hai now led the Shen Ce Army after the reorganization of 5,000 yuan, but did not squeeze into this circle. So the two of them also felt that Liu Ruyan brought the two of them to participate in the military discussion this time.

It is a good idea to find Li Hai. After all, he now has a team in his hands, but Tian Lingzi has nothing except dozens of family generals.

"Everyone thought we were going to escape." Gongsun Changming looked at everyone with a smile and said, "But they all guessed wrong. If we just escape, why do we need to maintain such a huge army? It seems that there are many people, but in fact the goal is also big. Now we are almost surrounded by all sides, right?"

Li Haiqing couldn't help but nodded.

"Now behind us, there are more and more pursuers from Weizhou. According to the information, Zhu Youzhen has basically taken the troops from Weizhou and other places, and it seems that he is unwilling to let us die." Gongsun Changming said: "The opponent's judgment is that we must flee to Changzhi, Tunliu and other directions, because there is close to Hedong, and Han Qi's main force is not far from these two places. So, in Changzhi, Tunliu and Tian Yue's troops have arranged heavy troops. Among them, Tian Ping brought 10,000 troops to station, waiting for us to meet!"

"It's not impossible to fight!" Li Hai said: "Now our troops are not less than them. If we attack Han Shuai, we still have a great chance of winning."

"It cannot be said that there is no chance of winning, but it is also easy to make a pot of raw rice. If we cannot fight and be entangled with our hands, Zhu Youzhen will pounce on him, but it will be troublesome." Gongsun Changming said.

"Mr. Gongsun, just say, what should I do?" Tian Lingzi was a little impatient and uneasy. He was very familiar with some of Gongsun Changming's routines. Once he started to lay the groundwork for a long-term discussion, the next thing would inevitably be extremely dangerous.

Sure enough, Gongsun Changming said: "We have received the order from Jishuai, so we do not go towards Changzhi Tunliu, but to seize Huguan."

Tian Lingzi couldn't help but be shocked, and Li Hai also looked at Gongsun Changming in a daze.

The terrain of Huguan is dangerous and it is the gateway to Luzhou, but the question is, what is the purpose of their capture of Huguan? Tian Ping, Luzhou in front, was stationed heavily. When Zhu Youzhen in the rear surrounded him, everyone would become the turtle of the man. At that time, there would be no place to run.

"What are you doing when you take down Huguan?" Li Hai asked: "Can we stay where we wait for help after taking down Huguan?"

Gongsun Changming laughed: "General Li really has the appearance of a general, and he hits the nail on the head. After taking down Huguan, we are going to stick to where we want to stick to it."

Tian Lingzi was shocked when he heard this: "Gongsun, are you kidding about Your Majesty's safety? At that time, Huguan will become a place of death and a prison? Tian Yue, Luzhou, Zhu Youzhen, Weizhou, one letter will be issued on both sides, and we will never escape."

"Why do you need to escape!" Gongsun Changming smiled contemptuously: "We are in Huguan, and then Huguan will be like a magnet, attracting more and more enemies to attack. Hahaha, as long as we are strong enough to defend Huguan, the enemy's fate will be bad. Shizhong, this is a strategic decision that Li Shuai and Han Shuai discussed together that concerns the overall situation. We must solve the enemy in Luzhou in one fell swoop."

"You, dare you take His Majesty the Emperor as bait?" Tian Lingzi said tremblingly.

"Aren't Jieshuai's mother, child, and wife here too?" Gongsun Changming said sternly: "How can the dignified Emperor of the Tang Dynasty appear in front of the tribes who support him like a fugitive? At this time, His Majesty the Emperor should stand up bravely and let his dazzling light illuminate the entire Luzhou. The more conspicuous we are here, the more beneficial it will be to the overall situation."

Hearing this, Li Hai understood that this matter could not be changed. Since General Li and Shuai Han had made a joint decision, it was a foregone conclusion. He looked down at Huguan and said, "General Gongsun, Huguan is at a critical location. As long as there is enough food and grass, it is completely fine to guard him for several months. Now our troops plus Qianniu Guards have tens of thousands of people, and there are enough people in their hands. But now I am puzzled that there are 3,000 people stationed in Huguan. How can we fight? We can defend Huguan, and of course the enemy can also defend it."

"Since we have made this plan, we will naturally be able to take down Huguan!" Gongsun Changming said: "General Li does not need to doubt this."

"Since that's the case, I have no doubts, just follow the military orders." Li Hai nodded.

Gongsun Changming said: "Okay, since that's the case, I will start to arrange military affairs. Shizhong Tian."

Tian Zizhong was a little god who was not aware of the gods. He was shocked when he heard this and looked up: "Ah, is there anything else for me?"

"Of course, you must keep your Majesty the Emperor steady. You don't have to let His Majesty know about this matter. After we take down Huguan, we will tell His Majesty the matter." Gongsun Changming said.

"I understand." Tian Lingzi was relieved when he heard that he had just tried to deceive the emperor.

"Mrs. Lead 600 elite troops in the headquarters, and Tu Hu leads 200 people in the headquarters. General Li, you will draw 200 elite troops who are absolutely trustworthy and follow your wife to raid Huguan." Gongsun Changming continued.

"Are you a thousand people?" Li Hai narrowed his eyes.

"Chen Bing, Chu Sheng led the two thousand Niu Wei, first dragged behind the rear troops in a manner that was cut off, and then turned to Huguan after dark."

"I, General Shishi, still headed towards Changzhi and Tunliu to confuse the enemy." Gongsun Changming smiled and said, "When you take down Huguan, we will return. The entire army will enter Huguan."

There is Baigu Mountain in the north and Shuanglong Mountain in the south. The two mountains face each other and are separated in the middle. The mountain looks like a pot, and the mouth of the pot is the name Huguan, so it is named Huguan. Its steepness is naturally self-evident. This is why Li Hai changed his expression when he heard Gongsun Changming say that he wanted to attack Huguan.

There are thousands of people stationed here. If you want to capture the Hukou, you basically have no other way except to fill it with your lives. Even if you have several times the strength of the defenders, it is probably difficult to take Huguan. For them now, once they cannot take it down, the enemy who came to hear the news blocked them here, but there is no way to heaven and no way to enter the ground.

But Gongsun Changming was confident.

This kind of confidence is not only based on the opponent's misjudgment of their strategic goals, but also in the current Zhaoyi region itself is full of problems.

Wei Bo annexed Zhaoyi and also integrated the Zhaoyi army of the former Xue brothers. However, with Tian Chengsi's death and Xuanwu's power, Zhaoyi and others naturally had their own ideas, and the conflict with the Tian family also appeared faintly. More importantly, although this army, founded by Xue Song, the king of Yanping County, has been many people who are truly loyal to the Xue family, remain in the army.

The chief general of Huguan is Tian Ji, a member of the Tian clan. However, the deputy general is Su Qun, a veteran Zhaoyi general. The three thousand troops in Huguan account for two-thirds, and the Zhaoyi army accounted for one-third.

At this moment, Su Qun stood at the top of the city and looked at Tian Ji who led two thousand Wei Bo soldiers out of Huguan. With a smile on his face, he kept waving at Tian Ji. As a veteran with white hair and beard, Su Qun and Tian Ji partnered without fighting or robbing. Everything was mainly based on Tian Ji, and the two got along very well.

Tian Ji turned around and saw the veteran above the city, and waved his hand with a smile. At this time, if he knew who the sword-holder standing beside Su Qun was, he would be so scared that he would sweat a lot on his back.

That person is Xue Ping.

"Young Master, how did you know that Tian Ji will definitely leave Huguan?" Su Qun looked at Xue Ping with her white beard.

"Because they are going to surround His Majesty the Emperor!" Xue Ping smiled and said, "Zhu Youzhen issued such a harsh order, and the Tian brothers also have their own plans. Of course, they will spare no effort to take down His Majesty the Emperor."

“Is there any difference between here?”

"Of course there is." Xue Ping smiled and said, "The Zhu family wants to kill the emperor, but now they don't want to live. However, the Tian brothers are just the opposite. They want to capture the emperor alive and then become a strange item."

"What about our Xue family?" Su Qun continued to ask.

"Xue?" Xue Ping smiled bitterly: "Xue's opinion is irrelevant now, and no one cares about their thoughts."

"Ko Zhaoyi was originally ours." Su Qun said indignantly.

"So what? Without strength, everything is in vain." Xue Ping said: "But Tian Ji will never come back again after he goes there. This Huguan will be yours from now on."

"No, it's yours. Young Master, what should we do next?" Su Qun asked.

"Tonight, you will mobilize your people and catch everyone who left Tian Ji in the pass, don't leave one!" Xue Ping said. "Hold Hu Guan firmly in your hand, at most three or four, and there will be important people here. Su Qun, have you ever thought about being able to meet the emperor in your life?"

Su Qun laughed and said, "Young Master is joking, I am a little toothed..."

Speaking of this, Su Qun's smile suddenly subsided: "You, do you mean the emperor will come here?"
