Chapter 1702: The Positions of Attack and Defense Change Rapidly
Yue Shansheng hardly stayed. After discussing with Qin Bai, they set off the next morning.
Qin Bai was seriously injured and had not recovered. Xiao Li prepared a lot of emergency medicine for him overnight. At least he could drag him to Qingzhou. When he arrived in Qingzhou, his mother would be there, so Xiao Li would not worry about it.
After Yue Shansheng left, Xiao Li agreed with his great grandfather and they set off.
They had to stay in Qingzhou for a few days before. Now that the work was done, there was no need to stay.
This time on the boat, there was one more person between them, the little girl.
The little girl actually preferred to go to Qingzhou with Lord Qin, but Master Xiao Li said that the situation in Qingzhou was not good, and the young lady and the prince were too busy there. If she went there, she might become a burden to them and delay their work.
Although she felt disappointed, the little girl stayed honestly. However, she refused to live and eat for free. She took the initiative to take care of the old lady and asked Master Xiao Li to dismiss the maid who was hired when he went to Qingzhou to buy supplies. She said that she could do the work of two people.
Xiao Li agreed, but he did not dismiss the maid. The little girl was injured and her hands and feet were inconvenient. How could he ask a little girl with limited mobility to serve others?
However, the little girl was very stubborn. Since she said so, she would definitely do her best to take care of the old lady.
Xiao Li saw that the little girl was around her grandmother every day. After a few times, he sent her away and talked to her grandmother alone, asking her not to really ask the little girl to do things.
Ji Xiaqiu would never bully a little girl, but when her grandson told her about this matter in a serious manner, she was still stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Do you care about her a lot?"
Xiao Li said as a matter of course: "She and Da Niu have regarded themselves as maids since they followed mother, but we have never treated them as servants. Mother also said that they are adopted daughters. When they grow up, we will arrange their marriages and prepare dowries for them, so they are our family. Grandmother, you don't know much, so I specifically told you to not misunderstand and not to treat her as a real maid."
After hearing this, Ji Xiaqiu looked at Xiao Li carefully: "Since you have known each other since childhood, you can be considered childhood sweethearts. It is not wrong to say that they are adopted daughters, but in fact, they are child brides. But. "
Xiao Li laughed and said frankly: "Many people have said this, but it is definitely impossible."
"Why?"
Xiao Li said righteously: "Because my sister is my sister, not a beast, why should I marry her home as a daughter-in-law."
Ji Xiaqiu was speechless, sighed with a complicated expression, and had to say: "Grandma knows, grandma will take care of her and won't let her work hard, you don't have to worry."
After solving these family affairs, Xiao Li's whole mind was put on the shipping time. They have now left the Qingzhou sea area. At this speed, they can enter Anzhou in ten days at most. If they set sail at full speed and travel day and night, they can reach Lingzhou within half a month.
Xiao Li has never been to Lingzhou, but he knows that Lingzhou not only has his great grandmother, but also a group of distant relatives who were once evaluated by his mother as "ignorant". Xiao Li doesn't want to contact too many unfamiliar people, so he discusses with his great grandfather and asks if he can contact his great grandmother privately.
Ji Nanzheng has been in Xianyan for decades, and his status is no longer the same as it was in the past. Now, for him, the only remaining bond of Qingyun Country is his wife, daughter and granddaughter. As for other relatives of the same clan, he plans to avoid being asked too much about his experiences over the years.
The old and the young reached a consensus and discussed the itinerary after arriving in Lingzhou.
…
On the other side, Rong Leng had a long talk with Qin Hai overnight as soon as Yue Dansheng brought Qin Hai back to Qingzhou.
The few people closed the door and discussed all night. When they opened the door in the morning, Qin Hai, who was overworked, was already in a state of half-dizziness and half-dizziness, and was about to lose consciousness and fall down at any time.
Liu Wei fed him several pills, sent him to rest, and then left the compound with Rong Leng one after the other.
How much can be done in half a month? It seems that not much can be done.
But if you split a day into two parts, and use a quarter of an hour as two quarters of an hour, then in fact, you can do more things in half a month than you can imagine.
On the seventh day of December, there was drizzling rain in Qingzhou. Qingzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River. Unlike the north, it starts snowing after November. The climate here is brighter, but it is winter after all, and the rain hitting people is still so cold that people shrink their necks.
Two days ago, all the troops from the three continents in the south of the Yangtze River had gathered in Qingzhou. Qingzhou now has an army of 200,000, and the original 110,000 troops of Qingzhou have also arrived in Liaozhou, surrounding Liaozhou. Once the King of Quan makes any unusual moves, these troops will immediately take action and take the initiative. If necessary, they will directly fight with the King of Quan.
The current situation is similar to the calm before the storm. Rong Leng is busy step by step. After Huer Tuo Ren tried to get the wind several times and got no response, he had to intensify the monitoring of Liaozhou.
The Jiangnan region in the rain exudes a wet and fresh beauty. In such a beautiful scenery, Liu Wei walked to the dock of Liangjiang.
She looked into the distance. In front of her was the river shrouded in clouds and mist, and around her was a neat and uniform patrol of rebels. Qingzhou now has 200,000 troops. Huerto Ren made reasonable use of these 200,000 people to surround the entire Qingzhou city like a copper wall and iron wall, which was impenetrable.
After Leilang disguised himself, he followed Liu Wei. He didn't know why Liu Sizuo wanted him to come to the dock. He was Hultoren's deputy general, even if Hultonin did not reveal his identity as a traitor, Many of the patrolmen at the pier also knew him. He was standing with Liu Wei. Once he was discovered, it would definitely arouse suspicion and cause complications.
Liu Sizuo didn't seem to notice Leerlang's anxiety. She sat in a tea shed sheltered from the rain in front of the pier, drinking some astringent coarse tea, and raised her chin to let Leerlang look outside.
Leerlang looked and saw nothing.
Liu Wei said: "Today, Songzhou has raised troops."
Leerlang was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and said: "As far as I know, no reinforcements have arrived from either the capital or Liaozhou. Lord Qin, who you almost offered as a sacrifice, only has dozens of soldiers in his hands." , He was even injured, and it can be said that he has no fighting ability at all. "
Liu Wei glanced at Leerlang and raised his eyebrows: "I said Songzhou has raised troops, but what does this have to do with the capital, Liaozhou, and Qin Hai?"
Leerlan blurted out: "How can we raise an army if we don't have one?"
Liu Wei picked up the teacup on the table and shook it: "Who told you that Songzhou has no soldiers."
Leerlang breathed out: "The government offices of various states originally had local troops stationed there. Just like Qingzhou has its own coldness, other state capitals also have their own troops. But these people were suppressed from the beginning. Kyoto and Liaozhou did not send troops. , and the local garrison troops in Songzhou are restricted by the supervisory army. What should we do if Songzhou raises troops?"
"Where is Huertuoren from?" Liu Wei suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
Leerland said: "Listen to that tribe."
"Who is the current leader of that clan?"
"The daughter of the former clan leader and the niece of Huertuo Ren."
"How did the former patriarch die?"
Killed by Huertuo in revenge.
Leerlang suddenly understood, and he asked: "You contacted the Tingna clan, and you used the soldiers of the Tingna clan to fight the soldiers of Huertuo Ren?"
"Wrong." Liu Wei smiled and tapped his fingers on the table twice: "First, Huertuo Ren has no soldiers in Songzhou, and the 10,000 garrisoned troops can be ignored at all. Now, those who control Songzhou, It's not Huertuo Ren, it's the supervisor sent directly from the capital by the queen. Secondly, it's not us using the Tingna clan to fight Huertuo Ren. It's the new clan leader of the Tingna clan, begging us to give her a chance. Let her avenge her mother."
Leerlan was silent for a long time and then asked, "How many people from that clan have come?"
Liu Wei smiled.
Leerlan calculated the fighting strength of that tribe and asked tentatively: "Is there 70,000?"
Liu Wei made an "eight" gesture, then raised her eyes again and looked into the distance: "Hurtuoren's 110,000 Qingzhou soldiers are all in Liaozhou. Here in the capital, she concluded that the queen will not allow the seven kings to When the soldiers and horses left the capital, she thought that as long as she controlled Liaozhou and ensured that the local troops in Songzhou would not resist, then she would have no worries. But she ignored one thing. She ignored that she was not a human being, but They are human beings. She killed their mother. Why doesn’t her daughter want to settle the score with her? She is cold-blooded and cruel, but others are flesh and blood and have feelings and love.”
Leerlang clenched his fists and was shocked for a long time, then asked: "Then what are you doing for Qin Hai? Since the army in Beijing can't come down to Qingzhou and can't cross the two rivers, then what's the use of him..."
"You are wrong again." Liu Wei interrupted Leer Lang, with a cold look in his eyes: "Once Songzhou is lost, the queen will definitely send troops to go down to Liangjiang. It doesn't matter if the army from Beijing can't come to Qingzhou. They don't need to come. They All you need to do is block the Queen's reinforcements on the Jingqing Official Road."
The Queen used to stop Rong Su, but now, she wants Rong Su to stop the Queen. The offensive and defensive positions are changing rapidly. The Queen will intercept their reinforcements, won't they intercept her?
Just tit for tat.
Huertuoren's Qingzhou Army was locked in Liaozhou, and the Queen's Beijing Army was destined to be suppressed by Rongsu's Beijing Army. This battle was fought between the Tingna clan and Huertuoren, and the Tingna clan rescued them. In the three states in the south of the Yangtze River, Rong Leng has obtained the power to garrison troops in the three states. With the combined strength of the three states, plus the 80,000 soldiers from the Tingna tribe, they can integrate an army of 480,000. Huertuo Renqingzhou has 200,000 troops. By then, But half their strength.
Of course, they also had to prevent the Ting Na clan from having a change of heart in the process, so in order to ensure that the new clan leader’s goal was only Huertuo Ren and not involve the Qingyun Kingdom, they spent nearly a month dealing with that clan. Now the two parties have reached a temporary cooperation agreement. The content of the agreement is that in the end, they will offer Huertuo Ren's head with both hands.
