Chapter 231 Departure
"Wang Jing's general trend has been achieved, and the west of Hongze may all fall into the hands of this person!"

After Dai Yougui read the news, he also sighed.

Zhou Ben, Wang Maozhang, and Li Shenfu were all famous generals in the Five Dynasties period, and their strategy of commanding troops was far beyond ordinary people.

Their eyesight is not weak either, and they can all see that Wang Jing is already full-fledged in the west.

If you want to destroy a force, you must kill the other party in the growth stage.

Or wait for the opponent's heart to be confused and internally unstable before defeating the opponent in one fell swoop.

If the power has passed the growth stage, the civil servants and generals are full-fledged, and the military and political system is complete, then the difficulty of defeating it will increase by more than ten times.

Because the military and political system is perfect, it represents the resilience and vigor of the forces, which can withstand one or several failures, and the hearts of the people will not be lost so easily.

Although Yang Xingmi is known as the king of Wu, the territory he occupies is only near Huaiyin and Huai'an. There is no shortage of military and political systems, but he has not completely taken root in this area.

His old nest is in Luzhou, but when he arrived, he came to the highlight of his history when he won the Qingkou War.

Although he has a large army in his hands and civil and military officials, it is inevitable that he will be a little unstable after leaving his old nest.

In comparison, Yang Xingmi's foundation is not even as solid as Wang Jing's.

It's no wonder that Yang Xingmi couldn't help sighing after receiving the news.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I don't think there will be a war between our army and Wang Jing in a short time. If Wang Jing wants to expand eastward, Pang Shigu and Hou Jing will be the first to bear the brunt!"

"Wang Jing's soldiers and horses are only separated from them by a canal, and separated from our army by a whole Hongze Lake..."

Dai Yougui comforted him.

Yuan Xi also nodded when he heard the words, and said, "That's right, Wang Jing wants to expand eastward, the only way is to go to Suqian... Also, I suggest that our army should adjust the direction of expansion!"

"Why is this?"

Yang Xingmi asked a little puzzled.

The eyes of Wang Maozhang and Li Shenfu flashed, revealing thoughtful expressions.

Li Shenfu couldn't help but said: "Sir, do you want to use Pang Shigu and Hou Jing as a barrier between us and Wang Jing?"

"That's right. Since Wang Jing's situation is very difficult to manage, we sent someone to spread the news of Wang Jing to the north, saying that Wang Jing has a lot of food and grass, and he intends to cross the canal and expand eastward!"

"Pang Shigu and Hou Jing will definitely take strict precautions against Wang Jing and regard Wang Jing as their primary enemy..."

Yuan Xi explained.

Only then did Yang Xingmi understand, and he nodded suddenly. He is not very good at strategy and tactics. In history, he fought against Sun Ru repeatedly and failed repeatedly, and even his old nest was captured by the opponent several times.

In this regard, he relies more on the counselors and generals under his command.

However, in his opinion, as a master, he only needs to be able to know and employ people, and his own military strategy will not affect anything.

Dai Yougui said: "The cavalry of Pang Shigu and Hou Jing are formidable. If our army confronts them head-on, even if we win, it will be difficult to pursue them. We have been entangled with them until now, but we have not wiped them out!"

"Wang Jing appeared at the right time. I agree with Brother Yuan's plan. As long as we try to cause conflicts between the two sides, our army can specialize in one side and find a way to defeat the Sui army in the south!"

Yang Xingmi nodded as he listened to the two counselors talking about their future strategies.

at the same time.

In the city built by the begging army.

Seeming to be seriously lacking in energy and energy, Ran Liang with a slumped face pressed the information sent by the spies on the table with his backhand.

Huang Sheng and Zhang Hun stood on both sides, both silent.

Today's Qihuo army, after fighting the Xiang family army in the west, has continuously lost its elite and retreated again and again.

If it weren't for the sufficient food and materials supported by Donghu, the Qihuo army might not even be able to maintain the army now.

Originally, the begging army had enough generals and veterans. After repeated losses, only two old men, Huang Sheng and Zhang Hun, were left as the core of the begging army.

Huang Sheng was able to survive because he did not lead troops, and Zhang Hun was able to survive because he had to hand over supplies to Donghu, so he didn't need to confront Xiang Jiajun head-on.

But all the generals who fought against Xiang Jiajun had already died in battle.

The cavalry and infantry of the Xiang family army are too brave, and the number of veterans of the Qihuo army is too small, so it is impossible to gain the upper hand in a frontal confrontation.

Up to now.

The begging army is already at the end of its rope.

Ran Liang, the general of the begging army, was also constantly worn down because of repeated defeats in battles. To be able to support him until now, he has been regarded as a tough-minded man who has suffered repeated defeats and battles.

"Wang Jing has defeated the former Qin Furong and collected Wuhe, but our army has been defeated repeatedly, leaving only more than 1 remnants and defeated generals..."

A wry smile appeared on Ran Liang's face.

God?Fate?
Thinking of the process of Wang Jing starting his family, and what happened to him after expanding to all directions, Ran Liang was full of unwillingness.

Why, Wang Jing can go smoothly when he expands.

And when he led his troops to expand, he was constantly attacked?
Because Wang Jing was born in the begging army, Ran Liang often compared himself with Wang Jing deep in his heart. The stronger Wang Jing's ability was, the more uncomfortable Ran Liang was.

He wanted to expand the army territory with his own ability, and wanted to suppress Wang Jing's performance.

Unfortunately.

He never got what he wanted.

"General?"

Seeing his expression, Huang Sheng let out a soft cry.

Ran Liang came back to his senses, his eyes fell on him and Zhang Hun, he looked at them for a while, and then said: "Wang Jing has won a complete victory, and our army is at the end of its rope, no matter how much Wang Jing supports We are not the opponent of the Xiang family army..."

"I really didn't expect that I, Ran Liang, would end up in this situation!"

Huang Sheng's complexion changed, and he quickly persuaded him: "General, why should you be depressed? Back then, our army was only a few hundred soldiers, but didn't it expand to tens of thousands of soldiers? Right now, our army still has more than 1 troops, but it is a slight setback. As long as we General cheer up, our army still has hope!"

Ran Liang waved his hand and said, "I know the situation of our army very well!"

"Forget it, this long time is enough for me to recognize myself. I'm just a middle-aged man. I can lead an army of tens of thousands is the limit. I can't compete with other princes at all..."

"There are not many old brothers left in the begging army. I don't want them to die on the battlefield in vain. Our army and Wang Jing still have some kindred spirits. You send people to Sihong and take the remaining soldiers and horses to defect. Wang Jing, let's go!"

Under the blow of constant defeat.

Ran Liang no longer had the will to fight Xiang's army, and seeing Wang Jing easily defeat Fu Rong's 20 troops.

The persistence in his heart collapsed.

"How can this work..."

Huang Sheng called out hastily.

Zhang Hun's expression was complicated, and he sighed slightly when he heard the words.He could see that Ran Liang was really heartless.The begging army is about to be defeated, and defecting to Wang Jing is also a way out.

Ran Liang smiled and said, "This is the last solution I'll find for everyone... I've made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore."

After half a sound.

Huang Shengcai stabilized his agitated emotions, and his expression was not good, "This is too cheap for Wang Jing. The general defected to Wang Jing, and he got so many soldiers for no reason..."

"You are the ones who defected to Sihong, and you have other plans...you go!"

Ran Liang sent the two of them out.

Although he lost his spirit, he still had arrogance, and the arrogance in his heart made him unable to serve under Wang Jing's command.

So Ran Liang simply found a way out for the soldiers under his command, while Huang Sheng and Zhang Hun sent someone to contact Sihong himself.

He led the horse alone, took dry food and weapons, and quietly left the city for the north.

Before leaving, he turned around and glanced at the city behind him.

Then slowly disappeared into the wilderness.
