Everyone in the conference hall was anxious. Even the big figures like Tian Ping and Tian Yue all had heavy faces and lowered their heads without saying a word.

Although he successfully annexed Zhaoyi, only one Xingzhou is still struggling to support it, no one present expected that the court's reaction would be so great this time.

At present, they can be considered to be attacked from all sides. And none of them are good at it.

In the hall, only Tian Chengsi still maintained a calm expression and even had a smile on his face.

"Everyone, this is a great opportunity for us." He knocked on the table, raised his voice, and said, "Don't look at them coming in a fierce manner, in my eyes, they are just native chickens and tiles and dogs."

Whether Tian Chengsi pretended to be calm or confident, his statement still made everyone in the hall feel a little relieved. They all turned their eyes to their coach, waiting for Tian Chengsi to make the next statement.

"Now it seems that we are attacked from all sides." Tian Chengsi laughed and said, "But the opponents are all ulterior motives. The army is not about many but about elites. They are united and united. Like them, they all come with the intention of getting a bargain, each with their own plans, and they can gather their efforts together. That is strange."

Everyone looked a little excited.

"Let's talk about Hedong first!" Tian Chengsi said: "Since Gao Pian's death, Hedong has no longer had its former power and was divided into pieces. Han Qi and Li Cunzhong's alliance have an absolute advantage. However, the actions of annexing the Kelan Army and Xinzhou Army still made the officials and gentry of the two places dissatisfied with them, and their rule was unstable. The conflict with the Wuwei Jiedushi Li Ze is now known to everyone in the world. Li Ze strongly supported Zhang Jia and formed de facto oppression on Hedong. Now Zhang Jia leads a large army to station in Shuozhou, relying on Wuwei to be in military and economic terms.

The strong support from the superiors has greatly oppressed Hedong in the military. Under such circumstances, although Han Qi agreed to send troops, how many soldiers could he send? Li Cunzhong's subordinates dared not move, because he had to beware of Zhang Jia. How many Taiyuan army could be deployed? He was not afraid that as soon as he left Taiyuan, Xinzhou army, and the remnants of the Kelan army would not cause trouble? Therefore, not only did the number of troops he dispatched would be limited, but their goal could only be to aid Xingzhou and make a gesture."

Everyone nodded and said yes.

"Let's take a look at Yang Zhihe and Xue Ping's troops from Xingzhou!" Tian Chengsi continued: "Yang Zhihe and Beizhou were defeated by us, and their strength was greatly lost. They tried their best to return to Xingzhou. Although they received the support of Xue Ping, they were only able to defend themselves. If they were not careful, they would be taken down by us. Even if there are the blessings of Hedong soldiers now, don't forget that Xue Ping and Han Qi are in Xingzhou now. Xue Ping can be regarded as Li Ze's subordinates and ally. Han Qi is afraid that he will not dare to give his confidant to Xue Ping?"

"So, we don't have to pay too much attention to the enemies in Hedong and Xingzhou. We just need to make steady progress and not make mistakes. They dare not take risks." Tian Chengsi said calmly. "Tian Ping, you lead the troops of our troops and Pei Zhiqing and Xue Jian's troops to deal with the enemies in this regard."

Tian Chengsi's son Tian Ping stood up and clasped his fists to take the order: "You can keep a deterrent to Xue Ping, Yang Zhi and his troops. Put the main force in front of Han Qi. In order to preserve your strength, Han Qi will definitely not dare to fight with you."

"yes."

Tian Chengsi glanced over everyone and said, "Let's talk about Xuanwu and Zhu Wen. This person seems to be able to send troops to directly threaten our hearts, but I wonder if you have noticed that until now, Zhu Wen's main force is still hearing thunder and not seeing the rain, and his movements are slow, but he is actually mobilizing again. With Zhu Wen's ability, if it is not so, then why is this done?"

In the puzzled eyes of everyone, Tian Chengsi laughed and said, "Zhu Wen's ambition is much greater than mine. His goal is our Weizhou and Bozhou? No, no. He is waiting for the result of our battle with the court. So our real opponent is only the court's troops."

"Uncle, why did Zhu Wen wait for the result of our battle with the court? If he suddenly seized our retreat while we were fighting fiercely with the court, we were afraid that our army would collapse without fighting."

"Don't worry, before we decide the victory and defeat with the imperial army, Zhu Wen's Xuanwu army was still on the road." Tian Chengsi sneered: "If we win and the imperial army is defeated, his Xuanwu army and his allies will turn around and go straight to Chang'an, Luoyang. If we lose, he will really speed up and copy our old nest and get the largest piece of fat in this battle."

"Catch Luoyang Chang'an?" Everyone in the hall gasped.

Although Wei Bo annexed Zhaoyi, they never thought of going to attack Luoyang and Chang'an, because this was the place of the emperor. To attack these two places would be like a blatant rebellion.

"If we defeat the imperial army, Luoyang and Chang'an, how many troops can we have to resist his army? I'm afraid we have to go down in one go! Zhu Wen, who is so ambitious, and the chair in the Forbidden City in Chang'an is what he wants most, right? So, we don't have to think about it all along. We just need to concentrate the main force and defeat the imperial army." Tian Chengsi said: "Tian Yue, you, Xue Chong, Xue Xiong lead your troops to defend Luzhou."

Xue Xiong was stunned: "Shuai Tian, ​​what should I do if Weizhou?"

"Give up, give up directly." Tian Chengsi smiled and said, "If not, how can we lure the imperial army into the depths? When they marched straight into Luzhou, it was the beginning of their demise."

Tian Yue suddenly realized: "Shishuai Tian wants to lead my main force in Wei Bo to copy their way out?"

"I'm afraid they would never think that I would dare to give up the defense of Weizhou and Bozhou and suddenly appear in Weizhou and other places?" Tian Chengsi said: "As long as I lead my troops there, they will have failed."

Everyone nodded. Once the main force of the imperial army appeared in Luzhou, Weizhou and other places in the back road were attacked and occupied by Wei Bo, the food route was cut off and there was no way out of the back road. What would it be strange if they did not defeat?

"But in this way, Zhu Wen will be a favor!" Tian Ping was angry, "We fought fiercely with the imperial army, but he rushed straight into Chang'an, Luoyang."

"Zhu Wen wanted to replace Tang, but doing so would inevitably cause the world to rebound. He was sitting on the crater!" Tian Chengsi said: "We seem to have suffered a loss, but then we can get along well with each other. If Zhu Wen really took Chang'an and Luoyang, he also needs to focus on accepting Yi to fight against Wuwei Hedong and other places. If Li Ze wants to attack Zhu Wen, I am also a hurdle that he can't get around."

"If he fails to attack Chang'an, Luoyang, haha..." Tian Chengsi laughed: "We might have some unexpected surprises at that time!"

After a meeting, Wei Bo's army was greatly motivated, and even Xue Jian and Xue Xiong, who were already desperate and began to be distracted, cheered up again. All the generals left Weizhou overnight and rushed back to their base, and began to prepare for this battle that concerns their wealth and lives.

In early May, the imperial army, led by King Fu Li Xin and General Guide Chen Bangzhao, had a total of 100,000 people, rushed straight to Zhaoyijie Town.

In the past month, Weizhou Weibo's troops retreated without fighting, gave up all defenses, and retreated directly to Luzhou, where Zhaoyi's core location was located. Li Xin and Chen Bangzhao left Xue Gu to take charge of Weizhou, protecting the grain road, and rushing the main force to attack Luzhou.

At the same time, the Hedong soldiers and horses led by Han Qi from Hedong were as expected by Tian Chengsi, not attacking Luzhou with the imperial soldiers but heading towards Xingzhou. Xuanwu's soldiers and horses finally began to move and slowly advance towards Weizhou.

However, Tian Chengsi's main force is still stationed in Weizhou, Bozhou and other places at this moment. It seems that they are being controlled by Xuanwu and Zhu Wen's troops, and they cannot provide effective support to Luzhou and Xingzhou, which are under fierce attack.

On the city of Luzhou, when Xue Jian and Xue Chong saw the endless camp of the imperial army, they changed their qualities, but Tian Yue looked as usual. "The Shen Ce Army has always been a pretentious person. Have you ever heard of a joke? Wuwei Li Ze set up Qianniu Guards in Chang'an. The newly recruited soldiers had only been trained for more than half a year, and then they beat Shen Ce Army all over the ground to look for teeth. Tell me, is this Qianniu Guards too powerful, or is the Shen Ce Army too cowardly!"

All three of them laughed.

"But their equipment is excellent." Xue Chong sighed: "The rewards of scouts who came out of the city today, siege cars, trenchers and other large siege equipment are countless. Next, it will inevitably be a hard battle."

"No matter how good the equipment is, it will still require people to use it." Tian Yue sneered: "It seems that they will definitely attack the city tomorrow. You two will be in charge of the city and command it. I will lead the Wei Bo cavalry out of the city. Let them first understand what a real war is."

However, Tian Yue still underestimated the imperial army.

Or it makes sense that the Shence Army's combat effectiveness makes him look down on him, but the people who led this army, whether it is Fu King Li Xin or General Guide Chen Bangzhao, are all experienced people, and they are very clear about the advantages and disadvantages between the two sides. Tian Yue was looking forward to the other side's siege at all. The Shence Army, which possessed an absolute advantage in military strength, began to build a dirt city outside Luzhou City.

It seems that they did not think of a refreshing siege to quickly conquer Luzhou, but instead prepared to be siege for a long time.

This made Tian Yue feel a little bit slapped.

The enemy did not take the initiative to attack, but he could not sit in the city. Seeing the earthen city outside building higher and higher. In desperation, he could only lead troops out of the city to fight repeatedly. However, under the command of Chen Bangzhao, the Shen Ce Army seized the village and defended it again and again, allowing Tian Yue to return home.

The trend of the war broke out from Tian Chengsi's judgment for the first time.
