Lu Zheng couldn't sleep well for several days and often woke up in the middle of the night. These days Ying'er was sleeping with her, which made her frightened. In the end, Ying'er went to find Liu Wan, which gave Lu Zheng a rare opportunity to hug her left and right.

"Your Majesty, you are too busy during the day. Why can't you let go of so many things? You are still muttering at night. You can rest well at night so that you can handle government affairs better during the day, right?" Liu Wan said with warmth.

Lu Zheng said: "I haven't felt this way for many years. I always feel that something is wrong. I have been in a military career for half of my life. Whenever I encounter problems, there will be some signs. This time..."

"Prince, don't think so. Now the two rivers are stable and stable, and the people are happy. Our Liaodong Army is extremely powerful. Looking at the prestige of the princes in the world is unparalleled. In this situation, the prince did not bully the weak, but continued to recuperate. The people all praised Princess, you are the wise king. Where can anything that is not conducive to the prince happen at this time?" Liu Wan said.

Lu Zheng closed his eyes, and all kinds of thoughts were flying in his mind. In fact, he was restless these days, and he thought about all aspects repeatedly, but he could not find the key to the possible problems.

Now he did not use troops, and the only one he used was Li Xiu to go to Shandong, but he also mainly raided Shandong's troops. Li Xiu's cavalry came and went like the wind, and he was absolutely proactive in using troops in Shandong. It is no exaggeration to say that it is to advance if you want to advance, and you can retreat if you want to retreat, and you can retreat if you want to retreat, and you can retreat with ease.

No matter how Lu Zheng thought about it, he would never have thought that Li Xiu would be in danger...

"Ying'er, Xiaowan, don't worry about me. I'll get up and take a look at the receipt last night!"

Lu Zheng couldn't fall asleep, so he got up to read the piles of official documents. The most important of these official documents had been selected and put aside. Of course, the details of Shandong's military use were the clearest in categories.

The general is not allowed to accept the orders of the emperor, but the general is outside, and one day he must send an urgent report to the military situation. This is the military order of Lu Zheng's strict order. Li Xiu sent the report every day, and he did not dare to slack off at all!

Lu Zheng read all these urgent reports, but did not see any unexpected places. It was late at night, and he looked at the letters carefully from beginning to end.

It was very quiet, and the questions Lu Zheng was thinking deeper. He thought about it repeatedly, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind. Li Xiu reported on the second day that Dezhou was very strict in defense, while Li Yuanze's team was strict and he had almost no way to attack.

However, Li Xiu reported in six days that there were very few defenders in Binzhou. Li Xiu captured Binzhou City in just one day. This...is something wrong. Since we want to defend Shandong, Dezhou and Binzhou are both parallel and on the same line of defense. Why does one have strict defenses while the other have a very relaxed defense? This is completely unreasonable!

Needless to say, Song Wensong is good at using troops. This kid is a master of military use and it is difficult to deal with. Compared with Lu Zheng and Song Wensong, if the two really want to start a war with real swords and guns, he thought he might not be his opponent.

The so-called specialization in skills is that Song Wensong is a general who really attacks, and his military means are definitely not blown up, so it is impossible for him to make such an obvious mistake.

If there is only one possibility of such a loophole, it is that Song Wensong deliberately asked Li Xiu to take over Binzhou! Why is this?

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Zheng's hair stood up all over his body. Nima is not a joke. Song Wensong is definitely conspiring. Lu Zheng immediately looked down and found that Binzhou was lost, Li Yuan led a large army to rescue him. Both sides walked against each other. Seeing that the two armies were about to fight to the decisive battle, Li Xiu quickly turned his head and went directly to attack Jeju.

Jeju is the capital of Shandong and Song Wensong's nest. This temptation is too great. Not to mention Li Xiu, even Lu Zheng may want to harass Jeju in this situation. No matter what, it would be good to be able to disgusting Shandong people!

The morale of the Shandong Army must be suppressed and consumed in this way. Otherwise, it would have been a lot of trouble if the Liaodong Army did not have an advantage in morale in the future.

There seems to be no problem with Li Xiu's use of troops, because the combat power of the entire Shandong is not likely to pose a fatal threat to Li Xiu! Li Xiu led tens of thousands of cavalry, and this swathe of a slaughtered force anywhere is a force that cannot be slapped.

Just based on the remaining troops in Shandong, how could it pose a threat to Li Xiu? It’s impossible!

Lu Zheng kept paced in the room and thought about it carefully and repeatedly. He felt that Song Wensong must have used his means, but for a moment he could not think of the key points.

Where did Song Wensong put his mind into it? Lu Zheng really didn't know... he couldn't figure it out.

He couldn't figure it out alone, so he immediately asked Sun Bing, Qi Yuanzhi and other advisers to come over overnight. Everyone came to think about this matter together. It has to be said that Lu Zheng had already felt a strong danger. Song Wensong should not be underestimated. He must have had a conspiracy.

"Ah..." Suddenly, Sun Bing exclaimed, he suddenly stood up, clapped his hands, and stomped his feet and said, "It's broken, it's broken! Li Xiu is in danger. My 30,000 Iron Cavalry may be buried in Shandong!"

Lu Zheng was stunned and widened his eyes. Qi Yuanzhi said angrily: "Mr. Sun, why do you say this? Do you know that this cannot be joked about?"

Sun Bing said: "What a Song Wensong, he is indeed a descendant of the Northwest King. This is a great move! Prince, Song Wensong raised an army to deal with Huainan Road, which seemed to be natural, and seemed to be determined to win!

But this is exactly one of our thinking blind spots. In fact, Song Wensong used this blind spot. After he raised his army, he did not go against Huainan Road at all. He just shot the troops in Huainan. His real intention was to give troops to the two rivers. Then he concentrated the forces of the Shandong army to encircle and annihilate our two rivers cavalry in Shandong!

If nothing unexpected happens at this time, Song Wensong should have already stood firm in Binzhou and Dezhou. The next step should be to lead the army to siege Li Xiu!

Although Li Xiu has 30,000 cavalry, he is weak and has no way out. He may face Song Wensong head-on... I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist!"

As soon as Sun Bing said this, everyone's faces changed drastically. Qi Yuanzhi was so scared that he trembled and said, "This... how is this possible? Huainan Road is within easy reach. This is a granary! Song Wensong..."

"What is Huainan Road compared to our Liaodong Iron Cavalry? The biggest threat to Shandong is our Liaodong Iron Cavalry. The Sun family of Huainan Road has collapsed. Song Wensong can take Huainan at any time if he wants to take Huainan, why bother to hurry up?

But he is unable to find a fighter plane if he wants to be enemies with our two rivers. This fighter plane is valuable. Of course, he has to take this opportunity to plan to attack Li Xiu first. As long as Li Xiu loses tens of thousands of troops, the troops in our two rivers will be greatly lost.

More importantly, through this battle, our morale was frustrated and the prestige that the prince had accumulated for many years was damaged. This is fatal! Song Wensong, Song Wensong, this beast is worthy of being the son of the Northwest King, my grandson Bingxin was convinced!"

Sun Bing said these words firmly and made people unable to argue. After hearing this, Lu Zheng understood that things were really like this. His face turned pale. If Sun Bing had not seen through this trick, Lu Zheng would not have seen through it yet. Song Wensong is still the same Song Wensong, and he is still clever and cunning and difficult to deal with!

Lu Zheng let out a long breath, looked around, and asked, "Have General Li Xiu's report been delivered yesterday?"

"Not yet, it should have been delivered at midnight, but it has not arrived yet!"

Lu Zheng threw a fan in his hand and said, "Mr. Sun's judgment has come true, it's broken! What should I do for the current plan?"

Zhang Pinghua said angrily: "What else can we do? We immediately sent troops to attack Shandong from the two rivers, and caused a counter-encirclement to face the Shandong army from outside. In this way, Li Xiu's center blossomed. We attacked from the outside, attacked inside and outside, completely destroyed Shandong and solved the problem of Shandong!"

Sun Bing sneered and said, "Mr. Zhang is a good plan. Just imagine that with Song Wensong's cunning, did he not expect that our entire army would attack? The situation is very obvious now, that is, the prince's strategy of keeping his troops and recuperating is right, and Shandong is helpless.

If they want to find a way, they must demand a battle. Only by fighting quickly with us can they turn the world around! In this case, Song Wensong had the plan to lure the enemy into deeper against Li Xiu!

In fact, pulling Li Xiu into Shandong and then siege him may be just a part of his strategy. Because Li Xiu is only 30,000 people. Although 30,000 people are very painful, it cannot hurt the root of the two rivers, and the Shandong army still has no way to go.

But if we rashly send troops because of these 30,000 troops, once the army enters Shandong, it will just happen to be the opponent's plan. Song Wensong wants to come to us for a decisive battle, and we will come to the door to fight him. Regardless of the final victory or defeat, we will be at a disadvantage in the strategic level!

Mr. Zhang, have you ever thought that since ancient times, the outcome of the battle between the two armies has never been large in number, and the strong side will definitely win! The battle between the two armies is about the right time and place and harmony between the people. If they fight in Liaodong, we will have the advantage.

But once he arrived in Shandong, Song Wensong had been running Shandong for many years. To put it bluntly, he might not have the chance to choose the battlefield!

Are we sure we will be sure to win when fighting in the place they choose? Besides, since Song Wensong already has such a strategy, it means that he has already prepared. And we are completely prepared and we are so hasty to send troops, how can we have a chance of winning?"

Sun Bing talked freely, and these words were reasonable and evidence-based, and no one in the audience could argue. After this storm, Sun Bing's talent and wisdom were fully revealed, and even Qi Yuanzhi was inferior to him.

Zhang Pinghua was a little annoyed, and said, "What should we do? We cannot fight and retreat, can we retreat, can we make Li Xiu die in Shandong like this?"

Sun Bing sighed and shook his head and said, "Li Xiu is so inauspicious, it's so difficult!"

Zhang Pinghua said: "Anyway, we can't let Li Xiu die so easily. We must make some moves! Let Kuangzi send troops quickly and escape Huainan Road directly. Be sure to quickly penetrate to Dezhou, at least restrain Song Wensong in Dezhou, so that he cannot deal with Li Xiu with all his strength.

In addition, the prince from Li Xiu immediately ordered him to retreat quickly and escape to Dezhou. The brave ones won when they meet on a narrow road. Li Xiu is a first-class general in our Liaodong army. What kind of height can he reach? This battle is the touchstone! If Li Xiu can win this battle and escape unstoppable, he will be reborn..."

Lu Zheng nodded and frowned. He knew what Zhang Pinghua meant, and the reality was indeed the case. If Li Xiu could win, it would be better. Lu Zheng would not give him any rewards, but if Li Xiu lost... then he would be wrapped in a corpse...

When Lu Zheng thought of this, his heart couldn't help but feel ache. He clenched his fists with both hands and his long nails pricked into the flesh. It was really painful, it hurts so much that it hurts...

Lu Zheng immediately followed the order given by Zhang Pinghua, and asked Xiao Ran to quickly send troops to Dezhou to support Li Xiu. This battle suddenly started. Lu Zheng invested more than 60,000 troops, while Song Wensong's investment exceeded 100,000.

In fact, Song Wensong's troops in Shandong had already exceeded 100,000. In order to prepare for this siege, he mobilized tens of thousands of troops, and he also borrowed more than 10,000 pirates from Goryeo and Fusang.

What is even more exaggerated is that all the private soldiers and servants of Shandong's powerful families were organized by him, so all the soldiers and horses in Shandong combined to exceed 150,000.

Now so many people are surrounding Li Xiu, which can be said to be the three inner and three outer layers. For Song Wensong, he only has one purpose in this battle, which is to destroy Li Xiu, let Li Xiu wear a corpse, and let Lu Zheng's 30,000 troops come and go!

The battle was extremely fierce from the beginning. Li Xiu felt something was wrong the day after attacking Jeju. He immediately decided to lead the army to retreat quickly. However, after only one day after leaving Jeju, he ran north and bumped into Li Yuanze head-on. Li Yuanze was waiting for his leisure and served the cavalry. The two sides fought in the field. Li Xiu found that the cavalry under Li Yuanze was actually all the bases of the Northwest cavalry. These Northwest cavalry were extremely fierce, and the hundreds in front were heavy cavalry.

Li Xiu faced him for a while and didn't get a little advantage. At this time, Li Xiu understood a little that he might have fallen into a trap.

Immediately, Li Xiu quickly separated from Li Yuanze, turned his horse and headed straight for Dezhou. But after traveling dozens of miles ahead, he saw a dangerous pass. After seeing such a pass, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel cold in his heart. He couldn't help but think that if Song Wensong was really prepared, this place would be the best place to set up an ambush. Although Li Xiu was a cavalry, the terrain here was dangerous, easy to defend but difficult to attack. If there was an army here to wait for work, Li Xiu... the more he thought about it, the more he became more and more afraid, and his hair was rising.
