Chapter 587 Prepare to counterattack

Chang'an, Changlemen

Early that morning, Mrs. Sun and the elders of the Sun family army were at the city gate to see off the juniors below.

They supported each other and said goodbye to the younger members of the family.

Before the little soldier left the city, he couldn't help but look back at the elders in his family one last time before turning around and leaving.

Some of Mrs. Sun and others couldn't help but stepped forward and called out uncontrollably, "Grandson——"

Once I say goodbye to my parents, I don't hear them calling me.

There are also many people in Chang'an who are watching the fun.

Seeing this scene, many ladies and daughters-in-law wiped the corners of their eyes and said something sinful.

"They are all a bunch of child soldiers."

Until this moment, seeing these childish-looking child soldiers, plus the young women holding their babies, and the old people seeing them off, there were no strong men in the team! Only then did the people of Chang'an truly realize the cruel fact that one hundred thousand Sun Army soldiers had sacrificed their lives.

A secret place in Changlemen,

Sheng Huaixing looked at their commander in confusion, "Head?" Do you want to take action? Give me a word! It will be too late if you don't take action.

Lin Ran turned around expressionlessly, "Let's go back and return to life!"

Sheng Huaixing quickly followed. I understand, it means there is no need to take action, right?

Pingzhou, Liaoxi County, Prefectural Government Office

Xiao Kun is reporting to Lu Songli on his recent work.

After bringing all the Sun family troops back to Youzhou to recuperate, Lu Songli and Sun Ming had a conversation.

Sun Jiajun's transfer to Pingzhou is of great importance, especially before Sun Jiajun's family members leave Chang'an, there must not be any leakage.

It’s okay to say that she is unfounded and worrying, or that she is just worrying about herself. She didn't think that the Sun family army would be completely monolithic, let alone that there were also descendants of the Xie family that she had suspected. In short, it is essential to be on guard against others.

After this conversation, Sun Jiajun, who entered Youzhou to rest, began to strictly monitor himself.

Then, Lu Songli ordered Shanggu County and Yuyang County to close the city gates on the grounds that the Xianbei cavalry was raiding Zhuo County in Zhongshan and other places. People can move around Youzhou, Pingzhou and other places, but they cannot leave the two places at will.

In addition, Lu Songli also ordered Xiao Kun to lead people to occupy the mountains and other checkpoints that must be passed on the way to Chang'an, and pay close attention to people leaving Pingzhou in Youzhou and heading to Chang'an.

These measures are all taken to prevent information leakage.

Xiao Kun did stop several people during this period. After verification, nothing unusual was found.

Lu Songli nodded after listening to his report. Maybe these people really had no problem, but it might also be a test by some people.

Lu Songli asked him to continue.

Just as Xiao Kun went out, Jiang Yizhou came in, "Governor, General Qin Heng is back."

"Is everything safe? Nothing happened?" Lu Songli asked with concern while commenting on the paperwork.

Qin Heng's trip is still very dangerous.

"Everyone came back safely." Jiang Yizhou replied hesitantly.

Hearing that his tone was wrong, Lu Songli raised her head and glanced at him, finding that his expression was tangled, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yizhou replied, "When we set out, General Qin Heng brought 5,000 Buqu, and when we came back, General Qin Heng brought back 5,580 people."

"Ok?"

"These 580 people are all former members of the Qin family army. They were secretly followed by Qin Heng and others when they passed through Lueyang City."

Lu Songli laughed. In other words, not only did they not reduce their numbers during this trip, but they also brought back five or six hundred people?

Jiang Yizhou has never seen anything like this. The good regular army of the imperial court is improper,

"Since it is the old department of the Qin Family Army, let's merge it into the Houcheng Military District." Ever since her father became the governor of Liaodong County, the Houcheng Military District has been basically managed by Qin Heng. These old departments of the Qin Family Army will be placed under his control. I think both parties will be satisfied. .

After Qin Heng took a shower, he came to see Lu Songli.

Lu Songli told Qin Heng about the battle situation in the East China Sea.

"This Xie Zhan has a really big appetite." Qin Heng saw Xie Zhan's plan at a glance. He not only wanted to annihilate the King of Jin, but also wanted to devour the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army, an isolated army.

Lu Songli smiled and said, "Brother, the home court of Donghai is left to Third Brother and Asheng. Are we here in Pingzhou just playing the drum for them?"

When it comes to drama, it’s all about acting. Since Xie Zhan thought he could cut off the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army's food and grass supply line, let him think so.

"Okay, we can test Zhuojun's defense this time."

Kuaiji, Qiantang

"Hahaha, Commander-in-Chief, if Pingzhou's water supply line is cut off, the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force will become a lone army. Without the supply of food and grass, they will be doomed."

Xie Zhan also had a smile in his eyes. He received the news from Zhuojun that Qin Heng led troops to attack Zhuojun. He knew that Pingzhou was in a hurry!

Then, Xie Zhan ordered the three armies to prepare to encircle the King of Jin's Pingzhou Expeditionary Force, and asked Xie Wei to focus on defending Yancheng to prevent the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army from breaking out from Yancheng.

Xuzhou, Guangling County, Dongtai County

All the important generals of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force, including the Qin brothers, Guo Chong, Yue Shu, Sun Congyi, and Lin Shan, gathered in the meeting hall.

Guo Chong took the lead in informing everyone of the intelligence collected, "According to the information we collected, the three armies of Dong Guowei, Wei Kuang, Liu Mao and Xie Wei under Xie Zhan's command moved. They attacked us and the King of Jin from the south, west and north respectively. Press over here."

Lin Shan followed and said, "The Wave Gang also moved. They surrounded Dongtai County and Wu County from the east."

Most of the people present were military generals, and they all saw that Xie Zhan's four groups had formed an encirclement.

"Xie Zhan did not attack because he wanted to wait for us to run out of food and grass?" Lin Shan said worriedly. What he was most worried about had happened.

Qin Zhao: "Obviously that's what he planned. The Wave Gang directly cut off the main route to the north, and that's what they had in mind."

Qin Sheng snorted coldly, "Xie Zhan wants to catch the King of Jin and our Pingzhou Expeditionary Force in one fell swoop, and he's not afraid of dying!"

"Then what should we do?" Sun Congyi was very panicked. Oops, are we going to be hungry again?

During this time, he finally discovered that Brother Qin and the others were all anxious on the surface, but they were all very concerned about themselves in private.

The lack of panic made Sun Congyi think that they still had a lot of food and grass, but when he went to the granary and looked, they really didn't have much food and grass.

Sun Congyi wondered, have they never experienced what it's like to be hungry?

"Don't worry, General Sun. Xie Zhan will definitely focus on attacking King Jin. He will not start dealing with us until King Jin is dealt with." Guo Chong comforted him with a smile.

Poor King Jin, Xie Zhan just took advantage of King Jin's unwillingness to bow down to his former ministers as a royal family, so he kept bullying him.

Sun Congyi: ...He just wants to know how to solve the food and grass problem!

Forget it, Sun Congyi decided not to worry about it. Brother Qin Sange and Mr. Guo were not in a hurry. Why was he in a hurry? Anyway, if we are going to be hungry, let’s all be hungry together!

In the following days, they saw that Xie Zhan was very fond of King Jin, and the imperial army focused on attacking King Jin's city.

The city to the south of King Jin was constantly being eroded, and its territory had shrunk to the point where it could no longer shrink.

It can be said that the north is basically close to Jiankang and Qutao occupied by the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force, and the city in the south is even blocked.

King Jin really endured too much.

On this day, Qin Zhao, Qin Sheng and Guo Yan summoned all the generals again.

After everyone gathered, Qin Zhao announced, "Xie Zhan and the others have been showing off for so long, it's time for us to take action." In opera, it's exciting when you come and go.

Sun Congyi was excited when he heard this. Are they going to fight back?
