Shuaifu Festival Hall.

Pei Yue stepped forward with a calm expression, but there was a hint of enthusiasm and excitement deep in his eyes.

He had participated in many military meetings before, but the standards today were unparalleled. Although there were only four people in the hall, including him, this was a military meeting that decided the fate of the country in the ten years of Daliang, which meant that he had gone from a military meeting to a military meeting. The upstart in the military has truly stepped into the core class of the military. It only took him half a year to complete a journey that would take others ten or even decades.

There are many opportunities and coincidences, and there are also many big shots who favor and value him. However, the most important thing is Pei Yue's own ability and hard work.

So after he entered the festival hall, Tang Youzhi and others were very friendly towards him.

Luo Huanzhang even smiled and said: "Pei Yue, Master Shen treats you differently."

As the head of Taishitai Pavilion, Silent Cloud did not participate in the strategic negotiation of the Western Army. On the one hand, it was because he was really not good at it, and on the other hand, he wanted to avoid suspicion and avoid the emperor's suspicion. But he couldn't wait to summon Pei Yue for a talk. Naturally, It's a sign of extra closeness, considering that he hasn't even had time to meet his biological daughter.

Pei Yue responded calmly: "Uncle Dingjun should know the relationship between Master Shen and the Pei family. Although I have broken out of the house, he takes good care of me, a junior."

Tang Youzhi smiled and said: "That's natural. Sit down first and let's discuss the next strategy."

Yin Wei said nothing. He has always been known for his ability to understand the general situation. At this moment, he would not have a personal grudge like Lu Min, but he could not get closer to Pei Yue.

Pei Yue said calmly: "The strategy for this battle will naturally be decided by the three commanders, and the juniors will implement it unswervingly."

Tang Youzhi waved his hand and said sincerely: "I want to hear your opinion."

Pei Yue's eyes moved to the map of the Western Territory hanging on the wall behind Tang You, and said slowly: "Judging from the current situation, Zhang Qingbai has assembled a heavy army to the west of Guping Camp, and another 30,000 troops are besieging Jiming Village. In addition, he also firmly controls the six military strongholds of Daobian, Wufeng, Lulong, Tribulus, Nanshan and Xishui. Most of the southern military stronghold system fell into his hands, and it is not easy to push it back. "

This is a situation that is on the surface, but it is not a real insight. Luo Huanzhang frowned slightly and said: "In your opinion, we still have to fight Zhang Qingbai head-on?"

With the current strength of the troops in Guping Daying City, it is not hopeless to defeat Zhang Qingbai's main force, but everyone here is a veteran on the battlefield. One thing is very clear: Zhang Qingbai is not a piece of wood stuck outside the city. When he found out that Liang Jun's reinforcements had arrived, He could completely withdraw with his army to the west and use the six military forts he occupied to establish a defensive system.

As a result, Daliang must add more troops to pull out the nails one by one.

Pei Yue asked: "I wonder how you are going to deal with Zhang Qingbai?"

Tang Youzhi pondered: "Marquis Yin proposed that you take the cavalry back the way they came, go up the rift valley, and penetrate directly to the side and rear of Zhang Qingbai's army. At the same time, the defenders in the city took the initiative to leave the city with the Longbow and Jinshui armies as the main forces. Seeking a decisive battle with Zhang Qingbai's army."

Pei Yue glanced at Yin Wei, and then asked: "Does Marshal Tang agree with this strategy?"

Tang Youzhi said slowly: "Yin Hou's strategy is not wrong. As long as Zhang Qingbai's main force can be defeated in one battle, he can only retreat in defeat and cannot continue to rely on the military stronghold to defend."

After Pei Yue thought for a moment, he said firmly: "This junior thinks this strategy is not appropriate."

Yin Wei frowned.

In his opinion, the current situation determines that he does not have much room for maneuver. If he wants to return to the Gaoyang Plain, the first step is to deal with Zhang Qingbai's main force. Otherwise, these 70,000 elites can cross the Guping Camp and clear the empty rear.

Lingzhou was turned into a dead place.

Pei Yue stood up and walked to the map, and said calmly and honestly: "If Lu Min could follow Qi Yunhou's advice yesterday and lead the troops out in time, even if the Longbow and Jinshui armies hadn't arrived, we could have relieved Gu Ping

The crisis in the camp forced Zhang Qingbai to retreat and move the battlefield to the Gaoyang Plain. But now the opponent must be on guard. If they want to repeat the same trick of sneak attack from the rift valley, our cavalry will definitely fall into the opponent's trap."

Luo Huanzhang nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Pei Yue continued: "The ten thousand cavalry under Zhang Qingbai's command should not be underestimated. Although the Tibetan Front Guards did not fight with them head-on, I estimate that their combat power is probably second only to the Anyang Dragon Cavalry of the Western Wu Emperor.

Above Ruijin Camp. Zhang Qingbai hid them in the dark before, giving the Tibetan Front Guards the opportunity to attack the formation, but I believe Zhang Qingbai will not make the same mistake again."

His words were well-founded and not exaggerated. Tang Youzhi and Luo Huanzhang nodded frequently. Although Yin Wei felt a little uncomfortable, he did not refute it outright.

Tang Youzhi stood up and stood beside Pei Yue, looking at the map and said: "You want to say that even if Zhang Qingbai can be defeated in this battle, the follow-up will be a continuous hard battle, and he may not be able to win? In this way, we must start from the overall situation

.”

As expected of their previous experience of joining forces, Marquis Jining quickly determined Pei Yue's true thoughts.

Pei Yue nodded and said: "The overall situation comes first, followed by defeating the army."

Yin Wei finally spoke and said calmly: "There are tens of thousands of Wu army cavalry outside Tiger City. Although Xie Lin was defeated and retreated to Gancheng, he still had tens of thousands of troops under his command. In addition, we don't know whether the Western Wu Emperor is still sending reinforcements.

If you want to start from the overall situation, be careful to fall into the enemy's trap."

Pei Yue drew two points on the map and said solemnly: "The Wu army has only two goals. The first is to capture the Guping camp and open up a route to attack the entire Lingzhou area. The second is to capture Hucheng. Both of them

Among them, capturing Guping Camp is the top priority, because the people of Xiwu also know that it is impossible to capture Hucheng directly. Previously, Zhang Qingbai occupied Junzhai on the southern line, and Xie Lin divided his troops into seven groups in the north, all for this purpose.

Serve the purpose. In this case, we cannot follow Zhang Qingbai's idea, we must put him in a dilemma, so that we can get something out of the fire."

Luo Huanzhang stood up and came closer, looking at the two specially marked places on the map, and said with slight shock: "Boy Pei, your game of chess is a bit big."

Pei Yue said calmly: "Junior believes that these two places are the eyes of this game of chess."

Tang Youzhi smiled and said: "I see, being so bold is indeed your style. Tell me, how do you plan to play this game and how do you want us to cooperate with you?"

Pei Yue pondered for a moment and then spoke eloquently. The three of them, including Yin Wei, listened attentively.

Time passed very quickly, and before I knew it, night had fallen outside.

Pei Yue's throat was a little dry, and he revealed all his plans. Tang Youzhi and others were constantly helping him to check and fill in the gaps. In this spacious and bright hall, a strategic plan that was destined to shock the world gradually took shape.

"Okay, I'll do as you say!" After repeated deliberation, Tang Youzhi made the decision with a happy face.

Pei Yue bid farewell to the three of them, bowed his hands and said, "I will go back and deal with some trivial matters, and I will lead the army to set off tomorrow afternoon."

Tang Youshang stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said sternly: "Be careful along the way. Don't force yourself. If you encounter danger, don't hold on. You are not only responsible for the life and death of the Zangfeng Guards, but also shoulder the most important task of this battle. Remember

.”

Pei Yue nodded and said: "Junior, I have taken note of this. Three adults, please take your leave."

After he left, Tang Youzhi said in a complicated tone: "The future generations are to be feared."

Yin Wei remained silent, and Luo Huanzhang smacked his lips and said: "After seeing this kid, I felt old."

Tang Youzhi said unhurriedly: "This big battle is not a stage for him alone. You still have to exercise your old bones to let the people of Xiwu know what it means to grow stronger with age."

Luo Huanzhang laughed loudly and said: "In terms of strategizing, I am definitely not as good as you two, and I may not even be as good as Pei. But when it comes to killing the enemy in battle, Old Tang, even if the three of you are tied together, you are no match for me."

Tang Youzhi smiled slightly and did not argue with him. He looked at Yin Wei and said, "Marquis Yin, we are facing a formidable enemy. Let's put some things on hold for the time being."

Yin Wei looked normal and nodded: "Don't worry, Commander, I'm not Lu Min's kind of person."

The conflict between him and Pei Yue is not a secret. At least Tang Youzhi is well aware of it through his relationship with Silent Cloud. At this extremely critical moment, he obviously does not want Yin Wei to make the same mistake as Lu Min.

However, Tang Youzhi didn't say much and said calmly: "The strategy has been decided, let's go and prepare it ourselves."

The three people left one after another, and silence returned to the festival hall.
