The life of the Xianyu family through books

Chapter 828 Liaison Officer

Duke Dingguo pointed to a spot on the map and said, "The Western Rong army was outmatched by our army, so they retreated back to the grasslands and marched in secret, splitting into dozens of cavalry groups and dispersing in the direction of Huju and Longxing."

"General, do we really have to wait until the Western Barbarians join forces with the rebels before we take action? If we attack now, will we have a better chance of winning?" a certain general suggested.

"Now that we have made a plan, we should act accordingly. Besides, the grassland is the land of barbarians. If we fight on the battlefield, the enemy is stronger than us. If we chase them and they lead us deep into the grassland, they will easily get lost. In the vast grassland, it is difficult to tell the direction, and life and death are unpredictable." Panda shook his head and said, "It is better to let them gather together and give them a head-on blow. Our army has far more troops than them, so we should take the normal approach instead of the unconventional one."

Yan Yu whispered to Pan Zheng on the side: "The Duke is so imposing!"

Pan Zheng puffed out his chest and whispered proudly, "That's it!"

Someone else spoke up, "General, if the rebels and the Western Rong meet up, and they don't rest and directly attack the city, we won't be able to catch up. The Guanzhou army will be under tremendous pressure to defend the city. If they can't hold on and Tiger City is broken, Yongning, Gufeng, Changping, and even the neighboring Linhai Prefecture will find it even more difficult to resist the rebel cavalry."

"Once the rebels break through the city gates, it will be difficult for us to recover the lost territory."

"The Guanzhou Army has been stationed in the north for a long time, and they know the consequences better than we do. Since they dare to propose a plan to win this battle, they have been prepared for it."

How could Duke Dingguo not know that the Guanzhou army might face a combined attack from the rebels and the Western Rong, but the national treasury was empty, and every day the army was fighting outside, a huge amount of food and fodder was consumed. Even if they could fight to support the war and get some supplies from the rebels, it was still not enough.

The situation here is still okay, but he thinks the situation in Guanzhou is even more dire.

I just want a quick battle and a quick decision!

In this battle, we faced the enemy head-on.

Both sides will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

Even if the generals under him did not say it, they were still reluctant to give up their soldiers.

The idea is to fight slower so that fewer people will die.

But the battle between two armies is not a game of house, and there will be casualties in the battle.

Compassion does not command troops!

If we can end this war immediately at the cost of human lives, then people's livelihood can be quickly stabilized, the country can be stabilized, and the world can be peaceful.

Panda then realized that he could accept the challenge and fight!

"Yan Xiaoqi, come closer and talk." Panda called Yan Yu's name.

Yan Xiaoqi straightened up instantly, her chubby little round face full of seriousness. She subconsciously exerted force with her feet and took a few steady steps, but the gravel on the ground creaked.

"General!" Yan Yu saluted with his fists clasped.

Panda waved his hand and ignored it.

"Can the Guanzhou Army hold Huju Pass?"

"Yes!" Yan Xiaoqi answered firmly and confidently.

"The Western Rong may attack from Longxing. Does the Guanzhou Army have any countermeasures?"

Yan Xiaoqi spoke clearly: "The Fengming Border Army has received the transfer order. According to the time, they should have arrived in Longxing."

"The stalemate has been going on for a long time. As far as I know, most of the troops from Huju, Longxing and Fengming have already been withdrawn. If they are withdrawn again, what troops will Fengming have left to defend?"

"My military advisor said: The barbarians outside the Great Wall have been invading for years. The people of Guanzhou are ready to fight if they take up their swords and lay them down as civilians! We will station civilians at the border to guard the Great Wall. No soldiers will be left in Fengming. All will go to Longxing. If the barbarians from the west come..."

Yan Xiaoqi's brows were firm, and every word he said was sonorous: "Fight to the death!"

"Okay!" Panda's eyes widened, his eyes full of brilliance, "If Guanzhou dares to fight, we will fight!"

After Duke Dingguo said this, all the generals had no more objections.

They left one after another to reorganize their troops.

They had to follow the plan to chase the enemy, but then the barbarians escaped and pretended to be lost, making a small circle on the grassland, and then followed the main force of the Western Barbarians, waiting for the opportunity to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop...

The strategy is simple, the pressure is on the Guanzhou Army.

They just need to be the yellow bird that catches cicadas. The most uncertain part is the route around the grassland.

Therefore, Yan Yu came here, firstly to be a mouthpiece for her uncle, the military advisor of Guanzhou Army, to contact the army led by Duke Dingguo, and secondly to act as a living map. Yan Huaiwen knew her ability to read maps and remember roads very well, so he could no longer trust her.

Yan Yu also added a three to himself.

She had to keep an eye on Duke Dingguo's army. Although Duke Dingguo was willing to cooperate and act according to her uncle's strategy, it was still unknown whether the people under his command could follow his orders. Just like just now, they did not fully agree with her uncle and had their own ideas.

I don't think they would dare to pretend to obey but actually disobey.

Military law is strict, and it’s not just talk.

But without instant communication, the general ordered you to arrive today, but there is a difference of several hours between morning and evening.

Just as they said, my uncle's plan was indeed very risky.

All she could do was to supervise well and report any problems she found to Duke Dingguo in a timely manner.

"Brother Pan!" Yan Yu raised a bright and pleasing smile, "Last time you said you would help me get promoted, is that going to happen soon?"

"Listen to what those people I brought with me called me? Little Yan, Little Flag, that doesn't sound very nice. If it was Little Yan, General Flag, wouldn't it be much more exciting?"

Pan Zheng was stunned, "Huh?"

He vaguely remembered that he had indeed said that.

But at that time, it wasn’t…

Do you feel that you have robbed the opponent's military merit and made the younger brother of the Yan family suffer a loss?

But when you think about it, although Yan's army lost its military merit, the supplies he provided were real, and there was also a place where the rebels transferred food and grass. After taking it down, Yan's army made a lot of money!

Don't think he doesn't know, he knows everything.

His people were kind enough to help transport it...

What a bunch of fools!

"Brother Pan, I really think everyone is ordinary. I only like you. Other people talk a lot but do nothing. Brother Pan is different. He is worthy of being born in the Duke's Mansion. He speaks the truth. He is generous and reliable!"

Yan Yu was so kind to him that he didn't care about money. He looked at him with admiration: "Brother Pan, it's because I can't reach you, otherwise I really want to become your sworn brother!"

Pan Zheng had never seen anyone like her or heard her speak like this.

The high-ranking families in the capital city are polite and courteous even to their old relatives who have been together for generations. It is rare, no, it is simply not possible to be so straightforward.

"You..." Pan Zheng was at a loss for words.

"Brother Pan, I'm the second child in my family. Many people call me "Little Second" at home and outside. It's a way to get close to me. You can call me that in the future, too, okay?"

Pan Zheng responded inexplicably: "Yes."

I regretted it as soon as I said it. What did I win?

How come he was tricked into speaking Guanzhou dialect?

It’s all the waiter’s fault. What the hell is going on?
How come they are so close?

"Brother Pan, although we can't become sworn brothers, in my heart, you are my elder brother. Come on, let's show off our abilities today, so that he won't think that I am useless and unworthy of a little Yan Zongqi!"

Pan Zheng was pulled out of the tent with a look of rejection on his face.

I don't know how Yan Xiaoer can talk so much, his little mouth never stops chattering, and he opened his mouth several times but couldn't make a complete sound.

I can only say in my heart: Yan Xiaoer of the Yan family army, was born with supernatural powers, and was rumored to be the reincarnation of a star general. He was good at shooting, swords and spears, and he always led the troops in battle, making the western barbarians cry and chase them everywhere. Your reputation is so great that your brother knows it very well!
Waiter: Big head, big head, no worries when it rains, others have umbrellas, I have a big head~
Pan Zheng: What a ridiculous nickname! I am not a big head~o(╥﹏╥)o~
A few years later...

Pan Zheng said indignantly: Yes, I am Big Head, Pan-Big-Head!
