Section 112: The clouds of war
The Seventh Army of the Influence Army was extremely fierce, and it did not even give any chance to play in the second and third army of Huaiyou Army.
The Ninth Army of Lu Tong's Inspiration Army showed a very strong momentum at this time. With the help of the Second Army of Huaiyou and the Third Army from the side, Lu Tong only led his own personal troops into the Seventh Army, and announced an order from Xuzhou and Yingzhou in a flash, and removed Xie Zhong, the commander of the Ninth Army of Caizhou.
Xie Zhong's several confidants, two battalion commanders, intended to resist, were killed directly in the camp by Lu Tong. The bloody reality shocked other people who were ill-hearted and made the takeover smoothly.
Zhang Yue participated in this matter with Lu Tong. This behavior was a bit risky, but in order to prevent it, Zhang Yue went deep into the other party's tent. If the situation was unfavorable, he could immediately escape with his martial arts level and command the Second Army of Huaiyou and the Third Army to launch an encirclement and suppression.
Lu Tong did not object, probably intending to let Huaiyou see his own style.
It has to be said that Lu Tong's performance was quite excellent, courageous and determined, and never dragged on the slumber. Xie Zhong was taken down without any resistance. As soon as the two battalion commanders showed their backs, they were killed by Lu Tong, directly suppressing the last chance.
Next, the Ninth Army took over the Seventh Army, and Lu Tong personally served as the commander of the Seventh Army, and handed over his direct line, the Ninth Army to his deputy. The Ninth Army and the Seventh Army carried out a chaotic and mixed order, and some officers of the Ninth Army went to the Seventh Army to serve.
"This Lu Tong is very domineering and has directly merged the Seventh Army. This seems to be a little different from Liang Zan's opinion." Xu Ziqing's eyebrows were filled with a bit of thought, "Zi Yue, agree to you to act together. What is the deep meaning here? It is impossible under normal circumstances."
"It's hard to say. Lu Tong's level of strength is really a bit underestimated. He is at least a master in the Taixu period. This is all second-hand. The key is that he is very skilled and has courage. Xie Zhong has no chance to resist in front of him."
Zhang Yue took the reins of the horse, and the strong horse under his crotch took a few steps, walking side by side with Xu Ziqing.
"Will this guy have other ideas?"
Xu Ziqing is never stingy in using malicious intentions to guess others.
Since the Xu family in Guangzhou was killed in a game by the Yuan family of Caizhou and Liu family of Nanyang, the entire Xu family almost paid the price of family destruction for this. He has been reflecting that the Xu family may not be suitable for survival in this troubled times.
Xu Wangting, Xu Wangxia's style that is not strong enough to have a strong blackness can't be played in this world.
Let’s look at the current lord who is the real master.
He asked Daliang for support with confidence, but never really wanted to serve Daliang.
Here, he would dare to give Nanyang a decisive blow to Nanyang behind his back; while accepting the support of the Hubei-Huang Du family with peace of mind, he would also have the idea of attacking the Hubei-Huang Du family with Qi-Huang and Qi-Huang two prefectures.
Never believe in any covenant, but only believe in yourself. This is the real hero.
"Other ideas? Are you talking about independence?" Zhang Yue was also thinking, but Lu Tong is indeed a character with some skills, but it is unlikely to talk about independence. "Is it possible? In this environment, even if it disobeys Liang Zan's intention and annexes the Ninth Army, so what? It is purely a delusional idea to gain a foothold in this environment, and it is impossible!"
"Then why did he act so recklessly? Liang Zan is his boss. His behavior is very taboo. Even if the situation is urgent now, Liang Zan will not attack him, but once the matter in Yingzhou is in trouble, can he be a good thing?" Xu Ziqing asked back.
Indeed, Xu Ziqing's words are very reasonable, and Liang Zan is not a good person. After passing this hurdle, how could he tolerate Lu Tong's behavior?
"Unless Lu Tong thinks that Yingzhou can't hold on, he wants to surrender to us?" Zhang Yue hesitated.
"There is such a possibility, otherwise they will not be able to defend Yingzhou. Even if they retreat to Bozhou or even Xuzhou, Liang Zan will not give him good fruit. If a general like them wants to serve our Huaiyou, the Lord will definitely welcome him. The more troops they have in their hands, the higher their status will be after they are applied, and the more they will be valued. This is reasonable." Xu Ziqing took a breath and rode his horse forward. "But he didn't expect that Lu Tong also thought that Yingzhou could not be able to defend, and even a general like him felt that he could not be able to defend it. That would be troublesome. Yingzhou would definitely not be able to defend it, but this needs to be reported to the Lord."
"The Lord should have considered it. Didn't the Lord tell us before coming? Let's let go of the battle, focus on training troops, not pursue victory and defeat in a certain battle, and strive to achieve the goal of tempering the soldiers. As long as the entire army is not destroyed, I feel blushed when I say this, but I can't say a tough word. Who made our two armies not really baptized by hard fighting like the First Army?" Zhang Yue sighed, "It's impossible to practice by training alone. What I hope most is to polish the army with a strong moment at the lowest cost."
"This time it's also an opportunity. Relying on Ruyin Jiancheng, we can fight two battles well, and see how strong the Heshuo Army is. Didn't Wang Miao play the Heshuo Army with great strength? It's just right to see what it is."
Xu Ziqing was not with the Second Army when Wang Miao Zaifeng, Cui Shang and others were not there, and the Third Army still had some rifts. Although the facts proved that Wang Miao's opinion was correct, it still made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Yue knew the meaning of Xu Ziqing's words.
The southward advance of the Heshuo Army will inevitably have an impact on the entire Huai You Army system.
The combat effectiveness of the Heshuo Army is also famous. Even though these two Chengde and Lu Long Army are border marginalized troops in Chengde and Lu Long, the main reason is not itself, but personal reasons for the military governors of Lu Long and Chengde. Therefore, their combat effectiveness is obvious to all. Compared with the Second Huaiyou Army, the Third Army has not been baptized in actual combat, these two armies are obviously more exciting.
Wang Miao is the matchmaker of these two armies entering Huaiyou. At the same time, Wang Miao himself is also from the Heshuo Wang clan, so these two armies are born with a sense of closeness to Wang Miao. Joining Huaiyou will inevitably greatly enhance Wang Miao's voice and influence in the Huaiyou Army. This will definitely have some impact on military generals like Xu Ziqing and Zhang Yue who are from the local family in the Hanzhou Province.
Of course, this impact has both pros and cons, and it depends on how Zhang Yue and Xu Ziqing view and deal with it.
Accompanied by the Second and Third Army of Huaiyou, the arrival of the Third Army of Ruyin, and the 15,000-strong army of six armies led by the Huaibei Rebellion Army General Shang Yunliu, also arrived in Ruyin. The number of the Rebellion Army, Huaiyou Army and the Heshuo Army affiliated to the Huaiyou Army had exceeded 350 million. The Caizhou Army also divided into two north and south routes and more than 30,000 troops also entered the hinterland of Yingzhou from Shenqiu and Baoxin, and quickly arrived near Ruyin City. The war was about to break out.
******************************************************************
There were gradually more generals outside the flower hall. Both coaches had not arrived yet, but there were already people in the bluestone patio outside the hall.
This meeting was the first official meeting between the major generals from Huaibei and the Huaiyou Army who came to assist. Important generals from both sides were to attend.
In Huaibei, in addition to the governor of Yingzhou, Liang Zan, who was the master, there were also Shang Yunliu, deputy envoy of the Jiedu Army, Gu Hua and Lu Tong, two main generals under Liang Zan, and two main generals, Lin Feng, the Jiedu Office Office Officer, and Gao Yang, the Confucius Officer.
Among them, Lin Feng was originally the generals of the army stationed in Fuli. He led the three armies to come this time, while Gao Yang was the generals of the army stationed in Xia Pi. He also led the three armies to come this time. Both of them were controlled by Shang Yunliu, the deputy envoy of the army's Jiedushi.
Similarly, the Huai Right Generals who attended the meeting this time were led by Wang Miao and Mei Kuang as the deputy, Zhao Wenshan was present on the Heshuo Army, Luo Ye, the generals of the Lu Long Army, were responsible for staying behind and controlling the entire Heshuo Army; Xu Ziqing was present on the Huai Right Army, and Zhang Yue was responsible for staying behind and controlling the second and third armies of the Huai Right.
Wang Miao and Mei Kuang have not arrived yet. As the head coach, they need to discuss in advance how to fight this battle to avoid entering the formal consultation stage. Once Huaibei makes some requests, they will have a general strategy to deal with it. It is impossible for every detail to stop and discuss it first before making a decision.
Xu Ziqing and Zhao Wenshan arrived first, but Xu Ziqing and Zhao Wenshan were not familiar with each other. They just chatted for a few words, and then they looked for a place outside the hall to sit down and wait.
Several generals of the Insurgent Army have also arrived. Perhaps because of the negligence of the Insurgent Army, the aide who had just introduced everyone to go, and no one has introduced the generals in Huaibei for Xu Ziqing and Zhao Wenshan.
The generals in Huaibei may feel that the current situation is not good and are unwilling to show a desire for others, so they remain a little reserved and did not take the initiative to come and greet Xu Ziqing and Zhao Wenshan.
Xu Ziqing didn't care much, and he had more time to observe the generals in Huaibei.
I have to say that a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and there are three thousand nails broken by a ship. Although Huaibei's performance in recent years is regrettable, Xu Ziqing observed that at least the martial arts level of these generals in front of him is definitely not weak.
