The Jiangzhou Plain of the former Sui Shang Empire

Li Jiancheng was discussing the war with his subordinates with a serious face. Generals from Huang Zhong, Zhu Wu and other Lu Liu were all present. Jiuyouhou, the "No. 1 player military man" who is not famous now, also stood aside and listened silently. He was not qualified to officially attend.

"Everyone, our scouts have had contact with the other spies many times, and there have been casualties during this period. It seems that we are probably close to the main force of the rebels..." The person talking about Li Jiancheng's general Xue Wanche, who is also the only general under the prince Li Jiancheng who can take action now.

The three sons of Tang Feng were separated, and most heroes like Li Daozong and Li Cungong were in a neutral position and did not help each other. King Li Shimin of Qin was unique, and the heroes under the command of Tiance Mansion were gathered together. The prince of the governor Li Jiancheng had no such good luck. In addition to the general Xue Wanche, he was still loyal to him, even his confidant Wei Zheng had already turned to other places. Now a rebellion requires Li Jiancheng to go to the battle in person, which is really speechless.

The battle to suppress the rebellion was not smooth, it took a lot of time but had little effect. Yang Xuyan deserves to be known as "knowing the army". He has been wandering in the territory of the Tang Dynasty and has never fought head-on with the Tang Feng's rebels. Naturally, he would not give Li Jiancheng the opportunity to achieve his achievements in one battle.

This situation is exactly what Li Jiancheng doesn't want to face the least. The most important purpose of his arrival is to end the rebellion as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams. According to his idea, it is best to be able to confront Yang Xuyan head-on and fight to the end.

Unfortunately, Yang Xuyan is not a fool. He obviously has the advantage of his military strength, but he still has to fight head-on, which means he is in a daze. He adopted the advice of his subordinates, Hua and Li, and he insisted on using mobile warfare to mobilize Tang Feng to suppress the rebels. It seems that the effect is very good at present. Li Jiancheng is indeed not a long-term battle and there are signs of division of troops.

After Xue Wanche introduced the current situation, Li Jiancheng frowned and said, "The Yang thief is really hateful. He always avoids fighting and delays our army here for nothing. Today, he finally found their main force. I think he must seize the opportunity this time and fight for a battle. I wonder what you think?"

Huang Zhong and the generals of Lu Liu were all looking at each other when they heard this. After a while, Zhu Wu replied: "Your Highness, Prince, you understand what you mean. We will naturally not object to the decision of a battle, but... I don't know what you plan to do?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiancheng pursed his lips slightly and said, "My idea is to... divide the troops!"

"Divide the troops?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this. The division of troops was weak. It was very cautious to divide troops on the battlefield. If you were absolutely sure, generals would not take measures to divide troops easily.

Li Jiancheng was also a soldier-knowing person, so he naturally understood this truth. He stood up and walked to the map, and explained in detail while drawing: "According to our information, Jiangzhou Prefecture City had fallen a while ago, and now there are still a large number of rebels entrenched among them. It seems that they should be the main force of the rebels..." Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng paused slightly and continued: "So according to Gu's idea, he hoped that Green Willow's Five Thousand Spirit Cavalry and the Five Thousand Spirit Cavalry under my command would be divided into two left and right routes, quickly penetrated into Jiangzhou Prefecture City, and strive to encircle the rebels in one fell swoop. After the encirclement, there is no need to attack the city. Just wait for our rear army to arrive."

Zhu Wu pondered for a moment when he heard this, and said slowly: "The plains on all sides of Jiangzhou Prefecture are easy to attack and difficult to defend. If we can surround the rebels, we can basically fight in one battle, but..." After a moment, he said slowly: "... But the rebels are weak after all, and there are no reinforcements outside. As long as their leader has a little knowledge, they should understand the principle that they cannot defend to the death. Then Yang Xuyan is also known as a soldier. How could he make such a mistake? The following officials' judgment is likely to be... a plan for doubting soldiers?"

At this time, Xue Wanche on the side spoke: "Sir, I'm worried. In fact, we have two days to go in Jiangzhou City. If we don't advance with light cavalry, Yang Zhe has plenty of time to get out of him. Besides, he doesn't know that we have found out about his whereabouts, so it's not surprising that he has done this!"

Li Jiancheng nodded and affirmed Xue Wanche's words, and then said, "Although the light cavalry is indeed a bit risky, the bandits are lonely and the number of people is very limited. Even if our army divides the troops, the troops on either side are still superior, and they still have difficulty in dealing with us. As long as you pay attention to not being ambushed along the way, there should be no danger. At most, it will be a waste of time. We will not suffer any losses. What are we afraid of?"

When everyone heard this, Li Jiancheng was right. With Yang Xuyan's troops, even if Tang Fengping rebels divided the troops, the other party would not be able to eat the ten thousand elite cavalry in one bite. They were nodding and agreeing with Li Jiancheng's opinion.

Only Jiuyouhou, who was standing aside, shook his head in his heart: "Oh~~ Yang Xuyan is definitely not an idiot. If he is determined to hide, how could it be so easy for you to discover? This time he suddenly appeared in Jiangzhou Prefecture, I am afraid that he still had other plans! Moreover, these NPCs habitually ignored the existence of players..."

Unfortunately, Jiuyou Hou is just a "little strange man" in the eyes of everyone and is not valued. So the plan of "dividing troops from three groups and going first" was determined...

Sui Shang Empire, Jiangzhou Prefecture City.

Shadow swordsman Yang Xuyan sat upright on the chair and asked worriedly: "Uncle Hua, is it really okay to wait for Li Jiancheng and the others here? Are those strange people reliable or not!"

Uncle Hua smiled faintly: "Don't worry, the prince, although these strange people have mediocre personal strength, they are huge and fearless. As long as they have enough rewards, the ability they burst out will be very terrifying!" He paused and confidently said: "What Li Jiancheng most hopes for now is to get the opportunity to fight with us. This time, in order to avoid losing the opportunity, he must divide his troops. At that time...haha~~"

Yang Xuyan's eyes became firm at this time, and he nodded and stopped talking...

Li Jiancheng and Yang Xuyan both have their own calculations, and other parts of the Eastern Continent are not quiet.

Just as Wang Dafu and his friends had just entered the Hanwei Empire, they were always tense, and the East-West Hanwei Empire that was confronting each other across the river finally began to have a small-scale conflict.

The cause of the incident was that a small outpost on the border of Wei and Western Han Dynasty was suddenly attacked. The attackers not only killed all the guards in the outpost, but also burned fire to exterminate the traces.

However, there was a secret secret, and a guard happened to go back to the main city to do business the day before. When he returned, he found someone sneak attacking the outpost. The guard was scheming and actually secretly invisible and witnessed the entire process of the sneak attack. Even now, the matter was exposed.

Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty was extremely tough and once shouted a slogan: "Those who offend me and strong Han will be punished even if they are far away~~". Now facing such a provocation, Thunder is naturally furious and immediately sent a note to accuse the Eastern Han Dynasty of the innocent murder of people and asked them to give an explanation.

Faced with the anger of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty was also furious. In his opinion, this matter was clearly a deliberately framed by the Western Han Dynasty. The reason was very simple. Attacking that outpost was not beneficial or even useless for the Eastern Han Dynasty. They had no need or reason to do such a thing!

Now both sides did not give in to each other and finally Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty made a harsh statement: "Since you no longer care about the affection of your compatriots, don't blame us for being rude!"

With a command, General Huo Qubing led 50,000 troops to directly garrison Jinshui City on the north side of the border between the two countries; General Wei Qing led five major troops to Pingyuan City in the central part; Flying General Li Guang was able to lead 50,000 people to Wuzhucheng on the south side, and the three armies came to the Wei Empire of the Eastern Han Dynasty in an aggressive manner.

Emperor Guangwu of the Wei Empire of the Eastern Han Dynasty naturally would not sit still and wait for death. Although the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai were not as famous as those of the generals of Lingyan Pavilion, they were all considered temporary choices. What's more, with Ban Dingyuan's army god in hand, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty was not willing to be outdone, and he also divided into three groups to welcome him, vowing to resist the enemy outside the country!

The Wei Empire of Han Dynasty was in a mess, but Qin Ge's expeditionary army advanced rapidly. When Wang Dafu left Ganlu City, they had approached the Huns' court less than 300 miles away and were gathering all their strength to prepare to defeat the Huns in one fell swoop!

On the other hand, the expedition of Li Shimin, the King of Qin of the Tang Feng Empire, has also begun. Surprisingly, Li Shimin actually reached an agreement with the Young Marshal's Army and the King of Peking Luo Yi. This time, the dispatch not only received support from the Young Marshal's Army in food and horses, but also the Prince of the Beiping, the only fierce man who had picked out the helmet of King Zhao Li Yuanba during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Luo Cheng, the seventh hero of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, also attacked with the army, and brought 30,000 elite soldiers in Youzhou. The King of Qin was in the limelight for a while!

In this turbulent wind, Wang Dafu and his party arrived at the third stop of the journey to visit the sages - Kaiyuan Mansion...
