The rumor spread very quickly, especially the news that Li Hu planned to recruit the resentful army as a whole caused the greatest shock, because it directly harmed the interests of the generals of the resentful army...
The conflict between the rebel army and the resentful army became more acute, and Dong Xiaochou, the head coach of the resentful army, was criticized and questioned by the officers of various battalions. Everyone followed Dong Xiaochou to raise the flag to rebel. To put it beautifully, it was to kill the enemy and restore the Han Dynasty and recover the home. To put it ugly, it was to maintain one's own interests or allow one to gain greater benefits. When these hopes were shattered, especially when one's own interests were damaged, the oath became empty talk, and the good brothers would turn against each other and become enemies.
Dong Joker kept silent about this.
The meaning behind silence is very obvious. In this way, the morale of the resentful army will be in chaos, the soldiers will be frightened and are anxious and will be looking for a way to survive.
On that day, Dong Xiaochou received a letter from Li Hu and rushed to the General General of the Rebel Army.
"Dong Shuai, you have made things big and it's out of control." Huang She opened her mouth and complained, "We agreed that day to follow our plan to firmly control the situation, but you changed your plan without authorization, which led to the situation suddenly getting worse. Judging from the current situation, we really want to kill each other."
Dong Xiaohou sneered, "Isn't this what you want? Although you used this vicious plan to destroy the resentful army, the consequences were very terrible, and the situation was completely out of control."
Huang She was stunned, "Dong Shuai, isn't this your idea?"
Dong Xiaochou also looked confused, "Didn't the rumors spread?"
Huang She was shocked and suddenly thought of someone.
Li Hu invited Dong Xiaochou to come, not to blame him, but to discuss ways to deal with it. Unexpectedly, Dong Xiaochou did not do this. Obviously, there was a problem within the resentment army.
As for the resentment army, this kind of rumor is very unfavorable to Dong Xiaochou. His subordinates may be betray him, and the resentment army may turn against him as a whole.
The situation changed suddenly, forcing Li Hu to adjust his troops to immediately adjust his troops to cope with the sudden crisis. If the resentful army turned against him as a whole, the rebels must take over Yizhou and ensure that they have the Daling River defense line. Otherwise, the Liao army will directly kill Haibeizhou and Quyizhou, and the rebels will definitely be in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides and being defeated.
Dong Xiaochou stopped him immediately.
"At this moment, adjusting the deployment of troops is equivalent to declaring war on the resentful army. Both sides must fight. Although the general commander-in-chief wanted to lure the enemy to attack. His original intention was to create a killing battle, but the current situation was out of control, and it is very likely that both sides would suffer losses and would be in vain to the Liao army."
"But I have to ensure Yizhou." Li Hu looked at Dong Xiaochou and sneered, "How many battalions of grievances can you control now? Can you ensure Yizhou?"
"I can at least control the five battalions of resentful troops." Dong Xiaochou said slowly, "Now you and I know who the opponent is. Since that's the case, why don't we use the trick?"
Li Hu pondered silently.
Dong Xiaochou's calmness made him feel something was wrong. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and knew Dong Xiaochou's purpose. This matter was simply created by Dong Xiaochou. The purpose was to stop himself from luring the Liao army to attack at the cost of sacrificing the resentful army.
Who is Dong Xiaochou? The resentment army is the land he established, and the forces within the army are mixed. How could Guo Yaoshi be his opponent? Guo Yaoshi and Anton's old subordinates were forced to rebel. If there was a problem with the resentment army at this moment, it would definitely be related to these people. With Dong Xiaochou's ability, he would not be prevented? Since he had prevention, he could control these people, why did this happen? It's very simple. It was deliberately created by Dong Xiaochou. He wanted to save the resentment army at the expense of Anton's old subordinates. Protecting the resentment army is equivalent to protecting his strength and his interests.
In this case, Dong Xiaochou had already planned and the whole situation was under his control.
Li Hu was angry and felt that he had been fooled, but then he thought of Hou Ge's words and thinking of the Han King Li Hong respecting Dong Xiao Chou back then, he forced his anger to suppress him.
"Where did the plan come out?" Li Hu asked with a smile.
"The resentful army raised the flag twice in a row. The first time was Luo Qinghan and Dong Zhongsun. This time it was Luo Qinghan and Guo Yaoshi. Both of them were severely damaged by the Liao people. Therefore, the Liao people would never trust the resentful army anymore, and it would be difficult for the resentful army to accept the surrender of the resentful army. Therefore, if Guo Yaoshi wants to turn against each other, he must make contributions." Dong Xiaochou said slowly, "What kind of contribution can impress the Liao people? One is Qianzhou and Yizhou, and the other is my head. Taking Qianzhou and Yizhou, the Liao people are equivalent to getting the Daling River defense line. In this way, the Liao army can go straight in, attack Jinzhou Liao army forward and backward, and wipe out the resentful army at the front line of Haibeizhou and Quyizhou. With my head, the resentful army can only be slaughtered by the Liao people. The Liao people can then revoke the resentful army, or retain a part of the resentful army, dismiss most of the people or incorporate them into other armies. In short, the Liao people must completely eliminate the potential harm of the resentful army."
"Guo Yaoshi had no choice but to agree, but the troops he controlled were limited. If he wanted to achieve these two goals, he would first have to disagree with the rebel army and the rebel army, so that the rebel army would lose support, and secondly, let the Liao people take the initiative to attack to attract the main force of the rebel army, thereby creating opportunities for him to turn against him."
"Will the Liao people take the initiative to attack?" Dong Xiaochou shook his head, "Now the Jin army's soldiers on the Daling River line not only suppressed the Liao army, but also suppressed the resentful army so hard that they dared not move. This is the most important reason why the resentful army has not yet broken out in civil strife, so..." Dong Xiaochou pointed to Chengzhou on the map and said to Li Hu, "Please write to Wanyan Zongwang immediately and ask him to lead the army to retreat."
"For the Jin people, he hopes that you can break through Jinzhou, break into Heishan, and then directly threaten Nanjing Road. This matter is beneficial to the Liao and Jin peace agreement or the Jin people's rest and recuperation, so Zong Wang has always been in charge of troops on the Daling River line to provide you with support, but if we want to lure the Liao army in Jinzhou, they must retreat."
Li Hu nodded, "Okay, I will immediately write to Zong Wang and ask him to withdraw to Chengzhou temporarily."
"The Jin people retreated and Guo Yaoshi was the inner supporter, and the Liao army would definitely launch an attack." Dong Xiaochou continued, "When the Liao army attacked Qianzhou, I led the army to support him, giving Guo Yaoshi the opportunity to occupy Yizhou."
"If Yizhou loses, the resentful army will be attacked from both sides and you can only ask for help. The general commander immediately sends troops, first besieging Yizhou, and then saving the resentful army. In this way, the grudges between the resentful army and the rebel army will be eliminated in one fell swoop, and the resentful army can be used by the general commander."
Li Hu suddenly realized.
Mao Jun, Huang She and Chai Yun looked at each other and couldn't help but feel awe at Dong Xiaochou. Fortunately, this kind of person is determined to kill the enemy and restore the Han Dynasty and is willing to follow Li Hu, otherwise the rebel army would be in danger this time.
"Our ultimate goal is to lure out the Liao army in Jinzhou, but there are 50,000 Liao army in Jinzhou. Xiao Bao cannot send all the troops out. We must find a way to let Xiao Bao transfer the Liao army in Jinzhou City again and again until the entire army is out."
Dong Xiaochou pointed to Yizhou on the map, "The Liao army attacked Yizhou and would meet Guo Yaoshi. The rebel army was in a desperate situation and could only counterattack with all its might. Haibeizhou and Quyizhou immediately became empty cities. This news was sent to Jinzhou City, and Xiao Bao would definitely attack in order to carry out front and back attacks."
"At this time, we need the help of the Jin army, let the Jin army take advantage of the emptiness of Sichuan Province, cut off the retreat route of the Liao army, and then attack the Liao army with us."
"The Liao army in Yizhou was besieged, and the Liao army in Jinzhou could only increase its troops in order to defeat us and rescue the surrounded Liao army."
"Just wait until the Liao army in Jinzhou arrives at the battlefield one after another, we can easily take down Jinzhou."
Dong Xiaochou moved his fingers lightly and pointed to Yuguan on the map. "If Luo Shuai has already captured Yuguan and is holding on, we can quickly support him. If Yuguan is obtained, Jinzhou is obtained, and Yizhou is taken back, the rebels can gain a foothold in Heishan. Then with the nine prefectures and counties along the way from Yuguan to Yizhou, we can survive and wait for an opportunity to go south, attack Nanjing, and occupy Youyan."
"The key to whether this plan can be successful is Yelu Eliye, the commander of the eastern route. As long as he launches an attack and commands the army to cross the Daling River to attack Qianzhou, this plan will be successful." Dong Xiaochou said, "I have five battalions of resentment. The Hu Lie Army and other armies have 20 generals, with a total force of more than 70,000. In addition to Wanyan Zongwang's Jin army, we can once again severely damage the Liao army."
Li Hu accepted Dong Xiaochou's plan. Several people quickly formulated a plan and then acted separately.
In order to induce Yelu Eliye to launch an attack as soon as possible, Li Hu asked Huang She to go north in person to meet Wanyan Zongwang, and asked him to help him and join forces to attack Liao again.
Soon, Huang She came back, and Mr. Wuyan also came with him. When he was in Targas Mountain, Mr. Wuyan had said that even if the rebel army broke through Chengzhou, he would still be surrounded and intercepted by the Liao army when he went south. As a result, he really got the answer.
Both of them met again and were very happy. Through Wuyan's account, Li Hu realized that the Jin army suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Chengzhou, and the horse and infantry army suffered losses of about 20,000 people in total. However, the victory of this battle brought unexpected results to the Jin Kingdom. The Emperor of Liao took the initiative to request peace talks and sent envoys to Huanglong Mansion, intending to recognize the Jin Kingdom and enthrone the Jin Lord as the emperor.
Wanyan Zongwang made great contributions and was rewarded by the emperor.
"If you win this battle again, not only will the rebel army get the opportunity to survive and develop, but the Jin Kingdom can also speak loudly and get more things from the Liao Kingdom." Wuyan smiled. "Zong Wang said that he now has 50,000 people. As long as you attract the main force of the Liao army to Yizhou, he will definitely take down Chuanzhou within one day, block the retreat of the Liao army, and then lead the army to the battlefield of Yizhou to attack the Liao army. However, this matter should be as soon as possible and cannot be delayed anymore, because the peace talks between the Liao and Jin countries are very smooth, and there will be a result before spring."
