Chapter 177: Peace Talks

Shi Yi, Deng Jingshan and Wang Feng stood at the gate of the camp to welcome the arrival of a carriage.

Dozens of elite cavalry escorted a carriage. Just by looking at the poses of these three people, you will know that the identity of the visitor is extraordinary.

The carriage stopped, the curtain was lifted, and a smiling face appeared in front of the three of them.

"Military Secretary Fei!" Shi Yi and Deng Jingshan bowed and Wang Feng also bowed with fists.

"Three are so polite." The man who was called Military Advisor Fei got off the carriage with the help of the coachman and returned the greeting with a smile.

The one who was called Fei Zhong by Shi Yi and the other two was Fei Zhong, the first think tank under the command of Zhang Zhongwu, the governor of Lulong, and was officially named General of the Military Advisor. General of the Military Advisor was a regular official position in the court, but not Zhang Zhongwu randomly granted him. When Gongsun Changming was still alive, Fei Zhong could only surrender to him. However, Gongsun Changming was Zhang Zhongwu's personal Mu Liao at that time and did not accept the official position in the court. After Gongsun Changming discovered that Zhang Zhongwu was preparing to rebel, Fei Zhongke was the first Mu Liao at that time.

This person is also the biggest think tank and driving force behind Zhang Zhongwu's rebellion. His family is a famous aristocratic clan under Lu Long's rule. It has a great influence.

Fei Zhong had been following Zhang Zhongwu on the Hedong front line before, but the three of them did not expect that Zhang Zhongwu would send Fei Zhong over, which shows how much Zhang Zhongwu attaches importance to the war situation in Shenzhou.

"Jiang Zheng severely damaged Gao Pian's Hengye Army in the Sanggan River. The Hengye Army will no longer have combat effectiveness in a short period of time. Gao Pian was forced to retreat to Daizhou. Relying on the terrain of Yanmen Pass, he regained his foothold. The battle situation was stalemate for a while." After everyone sat down, Fei Zhong did not speak nonsense and directly talked about the current situation.

Of course, the three people present already knew about this information. The war against Hedong could not be achieved overnight. Everyone knew it. The original strategy was to quickly take down Chengde and then stab Hedong in the weakness, but now this plan has gone bankrupt and they cannot make progress in Shenzhou.

Shi Yi lowered his head in shame.

"This is all the fault of the last general." He whispered: "I disappointed Jishuai."

Wang Feng was a little dissatisfied and snorted softly. Shi Yi said this, that he had swept him in, but could he say that he had not done his best? He had done his best. If something hadn't happened to Shi Yi and killed Li Che, it would have been another scene now.

"General Shi does not have to blame himself. Capturing Li Che alive was just our wishful thinking. Tens of thousands of troops were fighting and it was extremely difficult to capture the opponent's commander alive. Li Che's death was not a crime of war. We were originally placing greater hope on Heng Haijun, but Heng Hai was so disappointing." Fei Zhong sighed.

Everyone nodded repeatedly.

The main force of Henghai went to fight an empty Yizhou, but the entire army was destroyed and someone even attacked Texas. When the three of them received this information, they could hardly believe their ears.

"Where is that Li Ze coming from?" Fei Zhong looked at the three of them with interest, "This person's method in Texas is really very spicy. Although this person ruined the matter of Jieshuai, Jieshuai was very appreciative of this person. Jieshuai once talked about this matter to me, saying that if he had been with him in a different place, he would definitely deal with it like this."

"We have never heard of this person before. It's like a person suddenly popping out of a stone. We are already investigating it, and at the same time, we have sent people to Henghai. This person caused Henghai to suffer a great loss. I think they will spare no effort to collect information from this person." Shi Yi shook his head. "We really can't imagine what Cheng De is because of such a powerful army in Yizhou under such a critical situation in Shenzhou. Military Commander Fei, is this Mr. Gongsun's plan?"

Gongsun Changming stayed in Lu Long for seven or eight years. These Lu Long generals admired Gongsun Changming from the bottom of their hearts. Even Fei Zhong was not angry at all when he heard Shi Yi praise Gongsun Changming so much. Instead, he smiled and said: "Although Mr. Gongsun is extremely smart, he is still a person after all, not a god. If he really could calculate such a thing, how could Li Che's entire army in Hejian Prefecture be destroyed?"

Shi Yi nodded and said, "Military Military Advisor Fei said, this is exactly what I can't understand. It can be said that this person's sudden appearance completely destroyed our overall strategy. Military Advisor Fei, there were too many unexpected things in this battle. First, I clearly let Li Che go, but Li Che died inexplicably. Then Li Ze suddenly jumped out and completely destroyed our second step plan. Tell me, is this God's will?"

Speaking of God's will, the people in the room changed slightly. Shi Yi's meaning was a bit deeper. Zhang Zhongwu decided to launch a rebellion because he saw that the Tang Dynasty is now divided and it is difficult to gather powerful forces. The Jiedushi is each in power. The Tang Dynasty is nominally the same country, but in fact it has long been divided into countless countries.

"Planning is for people, and success is for heaven!" Fei Zhong, one of the makers of the entire combat plan, smiled easily: "General Shi doesn't have to be discouraged. If you want to do big things, how can you make a smooth decision? Since ancient times, no one who accomplished big things has gone through a lot of hardships and finally stood at the highest point and looked down on the world. What's more, although this accident caused us a small setback, it has not lost its strength at all. We did not achieve it.

As for our strategic intentions, it was still successful in tactics. The main force of the German army lost half of its strength, and the commander of Jieshou almost wiped out Gao Pian's Hengye Army in the Sanggan River. In fact, the strength comparison in the north has reversed. It was just that our plan to take shortcuts failed, and we could only do it step by step in the future. This is actually not a bad thing. This incident tells us that we should still be down-to-earth in everything and not think about taking shortcuts."

"Military Fei is right." Shi Yi and Deng Jingshan nodded repeatedly.

The governor of Lulong was almost the only one in the north. Over the years, whether it was a clever or a plunder, his strength was far superior to others. He had Yingzhou, Mozhou, Zhuozhou, Youzhou, Tanzhou, Guizhou, Jizhou, Pingzhou, Yingzhou and other places, with millions of people under his jurisdiction. Moreover, the people in these places were much poorer than those in Chengde and other places. Under Zhang Zhongwu's command, he fought with the Khitan every year. Wu Feng was extremely brave and fierce, and he was extremely tough. It would be no exaggeration to say that he had to take 100,000 armor. That is, economic problems hindered Lu Long from organizing so many troops. This is why Zhang Zhongwu coveted Chengde.

When it comes to prosperity, even Hedong cannot be compared with Chengde.

If Li Anguo knew that it was because he had raised the people for more than ten years that he had raised Chengde, the originally thin sheep, so Zhang Zhongwu coveted him, so he regarded him as his first target. I wonder if he would be so angry that he vomited blood.

"The war in Shenzhou can no longer be fought." Fei Zhong looked at the three people and said, "Jie Shuai and I both underestimated Cheng De's potential for war. Now Cheng De has stabilized his feet. If he continues, it will become a stalemate. It means nothing to us. Our main opponent is Gao Pian, who is under Gao Pian, with 50,000 armors and has the support of the court without any effort. Therefore, we must concentrate all our strength to defeat Gao Pian first, defeat Gao Pian, and the north will set its own decision."

Shi Yi and Deng Jingshan had expected this result. In fact, when the Henghai Army was defeated in Yizhou, they had already expected the ending today.

"No more fight?" Wang Feng stared at Fei Zhong with wide eyes.

"I won't fight anymore. Jishuai sent me here to negotiate peace with Anguo." Fei Zhong said with a smile.

"If we kill his only son, how can he argue with us?" Wang Feng shouted.

"Why can't peace talks be negotiated?" Fei Zhong said calmly: "We just don't want to waste our power in Li Anguo. Li Anguo also knows this. If we concentrate our strength, how can Chengde be a hit? Now he is just dead. If he really fights us, he will die."

"Isn't this a disaster for raising a tiger and letting it return to the mountain?" Wang Feng said.

"It's just a sick tiger." Fei Zhong smiled disdainfully: "We did underestimate him before, but that's all. Compared with Gao Pian, he is really not worth mentioning. If Lu Long wants to start a war between the two sides, he must mobilize at least 50,000 soldiers, 100,000 soldiers in the palace, and hundreds of thousands of civilians, which will drag down Lu Long."

Speaking of this, Fei Zhong sighed: "The land under Lu Long is mostly a bitter and cold place, but it's still too poor."

"Concentrate your efforts to defeat Chengde first, don't you have anything?" Wang Feng insisted.

"Concentrate your strength?" Fei Zhong glanced at Wang Feng and said, "We concentrate our strength to fight Chengde, will Gao Pian watch? When the main force arrives in Chengde, Gao Pian's army attacks Lu Long, how can we resist? On the contrary, when we fight Gao Pian, Li Anguo will definitely sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. Wang Dashen will not be unable to understand this principle, right?"

Wang Feng's face turned pale, of course he understood this truth. But he knew better that if Lu Long withdrew his troops and Cheng De recovered, he would definitely expose this resentment to him. Thinking of the poisonous oath Cao Xin made in front of the two armies, Wang Feng felt a burst of numbness on his body.

When Cao Xin shot his nephew to death, he said that he wanted to avenge his nine clans for Wang Mingren.

Although Cheng De is not worth mentioning in the eyes of Lu Long people, it is still a huge monster for him, Wang Feng.

"Military Secretary Fei, what should I do if Lu Long withdraws from Shenzhou? Will Lu Long abandon me and ignore me?" Thinking of this, he no longer cared about his face and asked directly.
