At the foot of Changbai Mountain in Zibo Prefecture, the Pinglu Army Camp is located.

"The last generals and welcome the general!" Kang Chenghui shouted, and the officers in front of the camp at the foot of the mountain lined up to greet him. A cavalry team of about 500 people appeared in front of the camp. The flag that was first cast was the banner of Song Wei, the general of the Pinglu Army.

The generals of the Pinglu Army looked at Song Wei's arrival and all lowered their heads and looked uneasy.

Since the first month of the year, Song Dashui's old body relapsed and was infected with the symptoms of the times, and finally had to return to Qingzhou. Before leaving, Song Wei handed over the full power of the front line command to Deputy Commander Kang Chenghui, but this battle to quell the rebellion has made no progress in the war from last year to this year.

In April, after seeing the thief and the rebel King Jingwu, the general was worried and offered to serve as a recruit. Song Wei, who had recovered a little, came from Qingzhou to the front line of Ziqi again and directed the Pinglu army to attack the rebels. At the beginning, he made several consecutive victories. When the momentum was in full swing, Wang Jingwu actually sent a dead assassin to assassin Song Wei. Although the guards found the guard in time, Song Wei was still hit by a crossbow. Although he was only injured, the crossbow was poisonous and could not be completely cured after several treatments. In the end, Song Wei had to return to Qingzhou again. As a result, Wang Jingwu spread rumors that Song Wei was dead, which caused the morale of the Pinglu army to plummet. Wang Jingwu led his army to take the opportunity to fight several counterattacks and seized the Linji and Zhangqiu City of Qizhou that the official army had previously captured.

Since then, the war has become increasingly unsuccessful, and until now, Kang Chenghui has not been able to invade Qizhou again.

On the contrary, other towns had frequent good news. First, Li Jing led the army of Zhenguo to defeat Wang Xianzhi with 20,000 thieves in Songzhou. Then the chief supervisor Ximen Sigong led the troops of six towns to defeat Huang Chao in Juye in Yunzhou, and Wang Xianzhi had 160,000 thieves.

There were frequent reports of good news from all walks of life, but the Panglu Army was ineffective. Not only did it fail to destroy Wang Jingwu's rebels, Huang Chao led his army to Qizhou and join forces with Wang Jingwu. Hearing this news, Song Wei, who was far away in Qingzhou, rushed to take charge of the overall situation regardless of his physical weakness. Now Song Wei was worried not only that he was the head coach of various fields but that he was ineffective, but that Huang Chao and Wang Jingwu would join forces to attack Zizhou or even attack Qingzhou.

"Welcome the General!" The generals of the Pinglu Army all spoke out to greet him.

As a veteran on the battlefield, Song Wei did not ride a horse, but came in a carriage. When he lifted the curtain of the carriage and got out of the carriage, he almost fell down. Until he approached, the generals saw that Song Wei was actually wearing a leather robe and a leather hat on his head. After a few months, he hadn't seen him. He was extremely weak, pale, eyes were dull, and his lips were even a little blue. His originally straight back was a little hunched, but his hands, which used to hold a knife and a spear, were now leaning on a crutch.

Seeing this, all the generals of Pinglu changed their colors. No one expected that Song Damashu's injury was so serious that it had reached the point of being so necessary.

"Deputy Commander Kang, Sima Cui, Judge Lei" Song Wei coughed a few times, and his whole body seemed to be relying on the crutches in his hand. His muddy gaze swept across everyone and greeted him one by one.

"Master!" The generals replied in a low voice.

The neat beard could not hide his weakness at this time. After saying hello, Song Wei did not say too much, but said bluntly: "I know that there is not much time, so I came here this time. I hope to wipe out the traitor of Pinglu Army Wang Jingwu and wipe out the thieves together before I die."

Cui Yunqing looked at him with deep eyes a little uncomfortable. Although Song Wei was already a sick tiger, he still had a momentum. "Ji Yu has recovered Pu, Yun and Ji. He has now arrived in the north of Qizhou and can enter Qizhou at any time. He just received the express letter from him, and Ji Yu said. Follow the commander at any time!"

Hearing Li Jing's name, a complicated gaze flashed through Song Wei's eyes. At the beginning, he thought he could conquer this kid by means. In the end, he could not control himself, and he gave in and accepted Li Jing as his adopted son. He originally wanted to use this to win over him and make him his right-hand man. When he died in the future, the position of General Pinlu could be handed over to him. However, Li Jing's life experience was far beyond his expectations. Not only did he establish the Zhenguo Army, but he had also become the governor who stood shoulder to shoulder with him in such a short time. Now he is in the position of the Three Towns Commander. Whether it is an official position, reputation or even a title, Li Jing, the former young boy, has long been away from him.

"You have accepted a good apprentice!" Song Wei sighed.

"He is also your adopted son, Grand Marshal. When you accepted him as your adopted son, your relationship was unchangeable. Li Jing was not a ruthless person. He was the adopted son of Grand Marshal, but he is still now."

"I'm afraid Li Jing was not really willing to do anything about the past. Now, it's better not to mention those things."

"Li Jing agreed at the beginning, and he was the adopted son of the Grand Marshal. No matter how humble his identity was or how noble his current identity was, he would never forget these things. What's more, the matter at the moment was the affairs of the court. Yu privately, he was the adopted son of the Grand Marshal, and Yu Gong, he was under the command of the Grand Marshal. As long as the Grand Marshal gave an order, Li Jing would definitely accept the order." Cui Yunqing believed that Li Jing was a kind and righteous person. What's more, the letter was written by Li Jing on his own initiative, which proves this.

"Is Ji Yu really willing to obey my military orders?" Song Wei turned his head and looked at Cui Yunqing with a bright look!

"Yes, I can guarantee it!" Cui Yunqing's eyes did not retreat at all.

"If this is the case, the chances of victory are very high!" Song Wei said bluntly. The strength of the Zhenguo Army is obvious to all. "Get the map!"

The guards brought a huge sheepskin map, and Song Wen pointed to the map, "Look at the generals. At present, the Yellow thieves and Wang Ni have joined forces, with about 50,000 troops and more than 100,000 young and strong auxiliary soldiers. Although they claim to be 200,000, the actual combat soldiers are estimated to be about 30,000. Now the two are guarding Qizhou, with the Yellow River to the north and the Yichang Army north of the Yellow River. It is the summer flood season, and even if the two thieves want to cross the Yellow River north, it is not feasible."

"To the west of them is Li Jing, who is stationed along the Ji River to the north of Qizhou. The Zhenguo Army has 25,000 elite troops. The Zhenguo Army has 25,000 troops, but it can block the 100,000 thieves. Huang thieves and Wang Ni dare not go west."

"Cough cough cough!" After a violent cough, Song Wei wiped his mouth with a towel. Cui Yunqing's eyes were sharp. When she saw Song Wei put it away, there was a shocking bloodshot on the handkerchief.

Song Wei continued: "It is not feasible to go north and west, but to the east, our Pinglu army is ours. Although our army was at a disadvantage in the battle with Wang Ni in recent years, the Qing and Mi in the east have a sea, and to the east are even more of a peninsula. As long as Wang Ni is not stupid, he will never dare to break east."

"The general's intention is that the two thieves will go south?" Kang Chenghui asked.

"Yes, the two thieves will not only go south, but I also expect them to go to Yizhou again." Song Wei said confidently that Qizhou will go south to Yanzhou and Yizhou. However, there are Taining Army in the southwest of Yanzhou, and the six towns of Caozhou will not dare to go there. Then, you can go to Yizhou. The two thieves have previously captured Yizhou and are very familiar with Yizhou. Moreover, after entering Yizhou, they can also go south to Sixu immediately. Avoid the current officers and soldiers of the towns and continue to flee.

"This time, we will give the two thieves a surprise." Song Wei coughed a few times and smashed his fist on the map.

"What are the arrangements for the Grand Marshal?"

"Cui Sima, write a letter to Ji Yu on behalf of me, asking him to lead his army to continue advancing east along the Ji River, and make preparations to encircle the bandit army in Qizhou with our army. The movement should be made bigger. But remember not to really bite the bandit army. The wounded me of me gave him was a big fuss, drive away the bandit army from the west, but don't fight." Song Wei said.

Cui Yunqing did not ask the reason, picked up the paper and pen and started writing the letter. After writing, Song Wei read it himself and nodded, asking Cui Yunqing to add another sentence, "I was poisoned and the poison had already invaded my lungs." There was not much time left. When I died, Ji Yu took over as the governor of Pinglu Army.

Cui Yunqing's hand shook for a moment, and finally added this sentence.

After writing this letter, Song Wei asked Cui Yunqing to give him the pen. This time, he trembled and wrote two memorials in person. The first memorial was written by Song Wei to the court. The letter stated that he was seriously ill and he asked the court to ask the court. He hoped that the court appointed Li Jing as the governor of Ziqing. Another memorial was a relic, hoping that the emperor would take care of the Song family in Chang'an after his death, and asked the emperor to allow Li Jing to take over as the governor of Ziqing. Cui Yunqing would then take over as the governor of Qingzhou.

After writing this note, Song Wei took out his official seal and private seal and pressed it together, and pressed it on his hand seal, and finally handed the letter to Cui Yunqing. "This letter is temporarily kept by Cui Sima. After I close my eyes, I will immediately send it to Chang'an.

These two letters were written publicly in front of the generals, and no one opposed Song Wei's arrangement. Cui Yunqing and Kang Chenghui, who were most likely to take over as the commander of the Pinglu Army, had no objection, and the rest of the generals naturally had no objection.

Seeing that no one objected, Song Wei's face turned much better.

"I passed the order of the general. Deputy General Kang led 3,000 elite troops to station in the camp, and then left 30,000 auxiliary troops to help, insert more flags and bluff, and do not let the bandit army discover the truth. The remaining 20,000 combat soldiers, 40,000 auxiliary troops were personally led by the general. Tonight, people were carried with horses, and horses were wrapped in hooves, and they rushed to Yizhou immediately, ready to wait for the bandit army to fall into the trap, and then they were all caught!"

Only then did the generals understand the entire plan of General Song, let the Zhenguo Army drive away the bandit army in the west, and then let Deputy General Kang bluff in the east, make a gesture of force, and force the bandit army to flee south. However, General Song had already expected that the bandit army would go to Xinzhou and enter Yizhou in advance to set up defenses and ambush, waiting for work. This is indeed a good move.

However, what made Cui Yunqing worried was whether the two thieves would really flee to Yizhou as General Song expected? Even if they really fled to Yizhou, with the 20,000 combat soldiers of the Pinglu Army, could the 40,000 auxiliary soldiers defeat the two thieves?

"Master General, did you send a message to the army in advance and let them send troops to Yizhou? In addition, Ji Yu also told them the detailed plan, letting them follow the bandit army and go south and attack the bandit army with us?" Cui Yunqing asked.

Song Wei remained silent. No one knew what he was thinking, but after a long time, he shook his head and rejected the proposal.

"The movement is too big, which may cause suspicion from the bandit army. Besides, it is enough for me to beat Lu army to defeat me!"

"Is it really enough to beat Lu Army?" Cui Yunqing was a little worried, or was it still a little unwilling to take advantage of this battle to leave a great deal of money for his life's battle?
