Chapter 376: Tongji Canal is in emergency

On April 22, the alliance's leading army was like a divine soldier and general, and suddenly appeared on the banks of Tongji Canal, rushing towards Xiangyi and Ningling like a tide. The ships coming and going were caught off guard and were looted by the alliance soldiers.

Soon, the news of Mengshan bandits attacking Tongji Canal and robbing the passing ships was like the wind, whistling along the channel, flying into the Tianqiu Pass, flying towards the important town of Xingyang, and flying to the eastern capital of the Tianchao. Songcheng, the capital of Liang County, which is only dozens of miles away from Ningling, responded quickly. Hundreds of fully armed Yingyang guards rushed out of the city and rushed to Ningling to help Ningling. Unfortunately, they crashed into the ambush circle set up by the Alliance Cavalry Army outside Ningling City. The official army was dizzy before seeing the opponent clearly. They were defeated and fled.

On the 23rd, the subsequent alliance army continued to enter the front line of Tongji Canal. The troops were approaching Songcheng and Yongqiu City, and Xiangyi and Ningling were completely surrounded by the alliance army. The Tongji Canal crisis broke out again, and the Liang County Government finally discovered that the northeast of the territory was full of rebel troops, and the situation was extremely severe. An unprecedented crisis suddenly came to Liang County. This made the prefect of the county and his subordinates who had just taken office and were nervous and frightened. In addition, they could not help but sigh that their fortunes were too poor. If the Tongji Canal was interrupted and the second Eastern Expedition failed, it would not be a loss of office, but a loss of head.

However, it is too early to lose your head now. The most urgent task is to ensure the safety of Tongji Canal and ensure the smooth flow of Tongji Canal. So the prefect of the county found General Yingyanglang of Songcheng. As the military and political chiefs of Liang County, the two were grasshoppers on a rope. At critical moments, they must work together to work together. The prefect of the county was blunt and asked the general Yingyanglang that he had a plan to retreat to the thief, and the general Yingyanglang was also telling the truth. Today, the Tongji Canal crisis and going to go.

The Tongji Canal crisis in 2019 was exactly the same. The white-haired thieves caused the crisis were all white-haired thieves, with the purpose of robbing Tongji Canal. However, the white-haired thieves were still weak last year, but this year the white-haired thieves were extraordinary. Not long ago, he defeated Zhang Xutuo on the battlefield of Qi County and captured Licheng, the capital of Qi County. Later, he retreated under the joint attack of the King of Qi and the Donglai Naval Division. However, no one expected that his retreat would retreat to Tongji Canal, threatening the capital again and endangering the Eastern Expedition.

The prefect of the county became famous as soon as he heard it. The general Ying Yanglang had something in his words, and the hidden information was rich. Why did the Tongjiqu crisis break out every time the Saint Lord went east to expedition? The last Tongjiqu crisis was the King of Qi, followed by the white-haired thieves, who returned with a full load. What was even more shocking was that the Saint Lord was defeated in the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition and suffered serious political setbacks. Therefore, the King of Qi was in peace and the white-haired thieves became increasingly rampant. As a result, the second Tongjiqu crisis was caused. Now that the white-haired thieves are coming, will the King of Qi be far away? If the King of Qi came in the name of suppressing the thieves, and chased the white-haired thieves, what changes would happen to the political situation of the Dongdu?

No wonder Li Dan, the prefect, tried every means to transfer from Liang County after the Tongjiqu crisis last year, and even took the initiative to apologize and demote. He thought Li Dan was afraid that his political opponents would seize this handle and attack him, so he retreated. Now he realized that Li Dan was too smart. He had long seen today's crisis, so he fled. What should I do now? The prefect of the county was a little dumbfounded. If the Tongjiqu crisis was a simple act of rebellion, it would be easy to deal with. Asking for help from the east to suppress the thieves, but now the Tongjiqu crisis is just an appearance, and the truth is a dispute over the imperial unity. The dispute over the imperial unity is too complicated. If you fall into it, you will be one step at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time, and one death is a life-threatening life.

The prefect of the county was confused and had no choice but to ask questions without shame, and ask for advice again at the General Yingyanglang. The General Yingyanglang said four words and waited for the change.

Watching the changes is inaction, which is OK for the military. After all, the Yingyang Mansion of Songcheng was only a few people. He failed in the first battle. Now he can only close the city gates and stick to the city. He can't do it even if he wants to. However, it is not possible for local governments. The consequences of inaction are very likely to turn into a disaster, with corpses everywhere and life is devastated. So the county prefect lowered his posture and asked for advice again.

The Ying Yanglang general did not offer any advice directly, but informed the prefect in detail about the way to deal with the Tongjiqu crisis. The prefect Li Dan turned to local forces to make local nobles hope to mobilize the power of the village clan and clan groups, stick to every city and every manor, protect the lives and property of every civilian to the greatest extent, and ultimately minimize the losses.

The prefect of the county government understood after a moment of thinking. The general Yingyang Lang spoke very implicitly, but in fact he was still watching the changes, but he still did not act. The white-haired thieves came to Tongji Canal, and they were robbed by Tongji Canal, and they wanted to deal with the powerful and powerful people in the Dongdu. Therefore, as long as the local governments and Yingyang House on the front line of Tongji Canal were watched coldly, as long as they did not have a head-on conflict with the white-haired thieves, they would form a "tactic understanding" that would not harm each other. You attack your Tongji Canal and I guard my city. Everyone did not interfere with each other, and each made their own profits.

The prefect of the county left and returned to the mansion, and urgently summoned local nobles to discuss the plan to suppress the thieves and protect the canals.

When the Korean Prime Minister received the invitation from the prefect's office, he was discussing with several local people's wishes on how to deal with the Tongji Canal crisis after the outbreak.

Last month, the Prime Minister of Han had secretly rushed to Liyang by Yang Xuangan's invitation and learned about Yang Xuangan's plan for mutiny. He had no choice but to follow Yang Xuangan without hesitation and carry out the mutiny to the end. So after he returned to Liang County, he actively joined forces with the black and white forces on both sides of Tongji Canal to secretly plan to raise the flag and rebel. The Prime Minister of Han had ambitions to "kings, princes, generals and ministers", especially since Wang Bo raised the flag in Changbai Mountain and Li Fengyun rebelled in Mangdang Mountain, he

I secretly planned this matter with a group of "like-minded" people. However, the Tongji Canal is the major artery of transportation north and south. It was always under the attention of Dongdu. If there is any abnormal movement, it will be arrested and killed, so I have not found the opportunity to raise the flag. Now, with Yang Xuangan's mutiny, Dongdu's attention has been focused on Yang Xuangan, so he can raise the flag calmly, then pull up a team, actively respond to Yang Xuangan, and help Yang Xuangan achieve the purpose of the mutiny.

However, there were unexpected situations in the world. At the critical moment, Li Fengyun suddenly rushed to Tongji Canal again, and the alliance army flocked to it. This move will surely attract the attention of Dongdu. In order to ensure the safety of Tongji Canal, Dongdu will send troops into the battlefield of Tongji Canal to suppress Li Fengyun. In this way, the situation in Tongji Canal suddenly became bad. In the face of the crisis, what should Han Prime Minister and his allies do? Should we take advantage of the situation to raise the flag, or should we wait for an opportunity to raise the flag after Yang Xuangan launches a mutiny?

If Li Fengyun takes advantage of the opportunity of the chaotic Tongji Canal to take advantage of the situation and raise the flag, the Korean Prime Minister can indeed win a relatively safe period of development, but is Li Fengyun willing to use it for the Korean Prime Minister? Will it protect the development and growth of the Korean Prime Minister?

Li Fengyun is not the same as before. His strength is very strong, just like a ferocious tiger. The Korean Prime Minister just raised the flag, just like a hungry wolf. There is no comparison between the two. Once Li Fengyun turns around to use the Korean Prime Minister or frame the Korean Prime Minister, the problem will be serious. After all, the Korean Prime Minister's team has just been pulled up, with limited combat power and insufficient morale. People's hearts are also in chaos. Once they encounter a strong enemy, they will definitely be defeated. Therefore, it is not advisable to use Li Fengyun. It is purely a way to seek death. The best way is to form an alliance with Li Fengyun and grow under the wings of the alliance. This leads to another problem. If the Korean Prime Minister joins the alliance, it will inevitably be tied to Li Fengyun's interests. If Li Fengyun refuses to respond to Yang Xuangan and refuses to participate in Yang Xuangan's mutiny, the problem will be even more serious, which is contrary to the original intention of the Korean Prime Minister to raise the flag to rebel.

However, if according to the original plan, after Yang Xuangan launched a mutiny, it would be more than two months later. What was the situation in the front line of Tongji Canal at that time? It must be very bad and bad.

At the beginning of the year, Li Fengyun attacked Qi County, obviously trying to grab a piece of land in Qilu area in order to obtain stable income to support his army. As a result, he was seriously frustrated and had to open up the Ji Canal to support the war. However, Li Fengyun is very strong today, and he must consider the future of the alliance. Therefore, this time, the battle-based battle is not simply burning, killing, plundering, but robbing the territory. If you can't grab it in Qilu, you will go to other places to grab it. Dongdu will definitely see this. In order to eliminate the disaster Li Fengyun as soon as possible, Dongdu must do his best.

To kill Li Fengyun, he was surrounded and killed at the Tongji Canal at any cost. It can be foreseen that in the future, the battlefield of Tongji Canal will surely fly everywhere, and both sides of the Tongji Canal will be affected by the disaster. The village clan group controlled by local forces will be requisitioned by the military, and the civilians will inevitably scatter to escape the war, and the situation will worsen. More than two months later, even if the Korean Prime Minister still has the opportunity to raise the flag, there is no conditions for rebellion. Without the village clan group and the civilians, where will he be recruiting people to form a team?

After such in-depth analysis and deduction, the Prime Minister Han and his allies were in a dilemma. They immediately rebeled and were worried that they would be eaten by Li Fengyun. After rebelling for more than two months, they were worried that they would miss the opportunity and were in a dilemma and could not make a choice. They could only send secret envoys to Li Yang to ask for Yang Xuangan's opinions. However, Li Fengyun and his alliance army had already arrived, and the Dongdu army would quickly enter the battlefield of Tongjiqu. When Yang Xuangan made a decision and then spread it to the Prime Minister Han, I am afraid that the time would be wrong and it would be difficult to save it.

After weighing the pros and cons of many parties, the Korean Prime Minister resolutely made a decision and went to visit Li Fengyun in person. He made some tests first and then looked at the situation. It was meaningless to sit at home and talk about war on paper.

Just as he was about to leave Songcheng, the invitation letter from the prefect's mansion arrived and he couldn't even leave.

Almost at the same time, on the embankment on the south bank of the Bian River, dozens of miles away from Songcheng, Li Fengyun and Li Mi were also discussing the invitation to Han Prime Minister as soon as possible. Behind them, thousands of alliance soldiers were crossing the river westward overnight.
