Unparalleled Concubine

20 days...

Now it was Li Xin's turn to frown.

He could think of a very simple way to contain Jincheng, that is to pretend to attack Mianzhu. No matter what happens at that time, Jincheng will divide his troops to rescue Jincheng. As long as Li Xin keeps pretending to attack the city, the strength of Jincheng will At least most of them must be attracted to Mianzhu by him.

But you can't keep feinting. It's easy to be fooled for a day or two, but it's impossible to use the word feint for 20 days.

In 20 days, no matter what, Li Xin had to attack Mianzhu with real swords and guns, otherwise he would not be able to attract Jincheng's attention for 20 days.

If there is a real fight, people will die, more people will die than in Fucheng.

If Mu Ying's subordinates were Li Xin's direct descendants of the Habayashi Guards, in the same situation at this time, Li Xin would most likely order an attack on Mianzhu without hesitation, and cover for the "Habayashi Guards", but now the target of this cover is Nanshu Remnants are uncontrollable factors.

Li Xinxin was a little hesitant. He didn't know if it was right to let the soldiers of the imperial army go to die, so as to buy time for the soldiers and horses in southern Xinjiang.

After a long time, Lord Jing'an gritted his teeth severely.

"Okay. Just 20 days!"

Li Xinxin became ruthless, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Mu, I am going to attack Mianzhu in a short time, and the Pingnan Army will definitely support it at that time. Then you will notify Brother Mu and let him bring fifty thousand sons under his command to fight out of Pingnan." The encirclement of the Confederate Army!"

These words sounded hot-blooded, but Mu Qing had already passed the age of passionate dancing. He frowned and thought for a long time, and then asked: "Master Hou, after cleaning up this partial division of the Pingnan Army, Mu Ying should go where?"

Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and said, "At that time, if my side hadn't been defeated, brother Mu should have come to help me fight Mianzhu together."

To be honest, this is a very risky move. After all, Li Xin is now huddled in Fucheng. Even if he can't do anything, at least he can guarantee his safety. But if he buys time for Muying, he will put himself in danger. .

Mianzhu is the last gate of Jincheng. Li Shen must attach great importance to it. He will even set up a trap in Mianzhu and wait for Li Xin to sneak in. If Li Xinzhen goes to attack Mianzhu, or even takes the initiative to attack Mianzhu, then it is very likely that the Pingnan Army will hold his tail. Take a hard bite.

But there is no way.

In the current situation, although Li Xin has taken the initiative, it is still in a stalemate. If there is no danger, there is no way to break the situation. Li Xin decided to give it a go.

Fortunately, he didn't take too much risk this time. Even if there is no way to implement it perfectly, it is impossible for Pingnan Army to eat his imperial army and Muying's militia at the same time. At most, Muying can't leave Hanzhou Cheng, or Li Xin, lost to the point of bruising.

These two bad endings are within the acceptable range of Li Xin.

He said to Mu Qing solemnly.

"Uncle Mu, I will help you hold on for 20 days no matter what. Once Brother Mu escapes from Hanzhou City, he will immediately lead his troops back to Mianzhu. As long as we can win Mianzhu, a big event will be accomplished!"

Mu Qing also looked solemn, and slowly got up to salute.

"Since Lord Hou can trust the Mu family so much, the Mu family will definitely live up to Master Hou's trust in this life!"

Li Xin shook his head slightly.

"To tell you the truth, Uncle Mu, I'm not very familiar with the members of the Mu family. Even you, Uncle Mu, I haven't met many times, but I believe in the Mu family because of my bond with Brother Mu."

"Li Xin is willing to trust Brother Mu!"

Chapter 521

Man is not as good as God. In this world, nothing can be completely predicted. What smart people should do is adapt to the situation, not predict the future.

When Li Xin came out of the capital at the beginning of the year, he made a lot of plans for the southwest, but unfortunately, most of these plans were either abandoned or forced to make changes due to changes in the times. Now the situation in southern Xinjiang has developed into the current situation. This appearance is actually quite different from what Li Xin envisioned earlier.

However, this did not affect Li Xin's ability to take the initiative.

Mu Qing was at the county government office in Fu County, and after discussing with Li Xin for a whole afternoon, he finally left Fu County in the evening. It stands to reason that he came from a long way, and as a junior, Li Xin should keep him for a day, but at this time, Every day is extremely urgent, so after Li Xin bowed to Mu Qing, he let the current head of the Mu family leave.

After Mu Qing left, Li Xin found Zhao Jia immediately.

At this time, Lord Jing'an was no longer calm and calm as before. He said in a deep voice, "Brother You'an, write a letter to Senior Brother Ye and tell him that I will start attacking Mianzhu in ten days."

It will take time for Mu Qing to return to Hanzhou, and it will also take time for Mu Ying to prepare, so the two parties agreed to do it in ten days, which is actually very rushed.

Ten days is enough time for Li Xin to inform Ye Ming, so that when the fight really starts, Ye Ming can always pay attention to the movement of Jiange to respond.

Zhao Jia glanced at Li Xin, remained silent for a long time, and finally asked, "Master Hou, is it a bit rash to decide to attack Mianzhu now?"

"It's too late to think about it."

Li Xin's tone was firm.

"At this time, the situation in the southwest can only be resolved by cutting the mess with a sharp knife. If we continue to hesitate, we may really be dragged to death by the Pingnan Army in the hinterland of the southwest."

Zhao Jia lowered his brows and said, "But according to Lord Hou, it is the Pingnan Army that should be anxious at this time, not us."

"That situation should be the situation after we occupied Mianzhu."

"Occupying Mianzhu, the Pingnan army will have no room to move. We can sit comfortably on the tower of Mianzhu and watch his house collapse, but not in Fucheng."

"Fucheng is too small."

Marquis Jing'an gritted his teeth and said, "Only when we enter Mianzhu can we advance and retreat, but if we stay here in Fucheng, this small city cannot tolerate and have no room to defend the city. If we don't go out and fight with others, we will be trapped." Died in this small town."

Fucheng is just an ordinary city, not to mention the low city walls, and the defense line of the city walls is not too long. More importantly, the quality of the city walls is not good.

As long as the city walls of Fufu City are of better quality, they won't be occupied by Li Xin's troops in three days.

No matter how you look at it, Fucheng is not a place to live for a long time. Li Xin can either grit his teeth and take down Mianzhu, or he can only retreat and attack Jianmen Pass with Ye Ming's troops, but the latter will inevitably be defeated by Jincheng Pingnan's army ranks tail after chase, so Li Xin resolutely chose the former.

Seeing that Li Xin was so determined, Zhao Youan could only give a wry smile, and began writing letters at his desk.

The content of the letter is very simple. Anyway, Ye Ming has already understood some of Li Xin's meaning. It is enough to let him cooperate with the people who guard the Jiange and give Li Xin some space to display.

Zhao Jia is a clerical master. It didn't take long for a letter to be written. He read it over for Li Xin. After seeing Li Xin nodding, he stuffed it into the envelope, turned around and handed it over to the scout battalion under his hand. Jiange to go.

After sending the letter away, Zhao Jia glanced back at the somewhat silent Li Xin, lowered his head and said, "Master Hou, do you have any plans to fight Mianzhu?"

"Not yet."

A smile appeared on Li Xin's face, and he said, "Don't worry, Brother You'an, I've never been an adventurous person. This time we're going to fight Mianzhu, it can only be regarded as a false attack in general, and we will try to create something for Hanzhou. When the opportunity arises, when the survivors of Nanshu in Hanzhou escape, we will encircle Mianzhu again, and then we will win even if we don’t win.”

The current situation is actually very clear. Li Xin must first feint to liberate Mu Ying in Hanzhou, and then have a chance to completely take down Mianzhu.

Zhao Jia found a map of Mianzhu, pointed to Mianzhu with a square drawn on the map, and asked, "Then how should we attack with a feint?"

Lord Jing'an lowered his eyebrows and said, "Ten days later, our army sent 5000 people out of Fucheng to attack Mianzhu."

"We have a total of three Zhechong mansions, and each Zhechong mansion sends out 5000 people, and each siege takes seven days in rotation."

"After three rounds, the 20 days will last."

Zhao Jia frowned and said, "If this is the case, you may not be able to deceive Pingnan Army."

"So among the three Zhechong mansions, one of them is really going to fight Mianzhu."
