The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 367 Leading the army to the north, the bad news came

A few days later, the situation in Youzhou was out of control in an instant, and a cloud of cloud suddenly struck in the sky!
It turned out that An Lushan, the prefect of Zhuojun County, was bewitched by the general Wanyan Loushi of the Jin Army, aroused his own ambition, and then raised troops to rebel!
Since An Lushan has been in Zhuojun for several years, during this time, he has been secretly recruiting talents, rectifying the army, recruiting troops, and expanding his strength.

Not only that, but An Lushan also practiced benevolent policies in the territory, which won the hearts of the local people.

Therefore, just a few days after An Lushan announced the uprising, Zhuo County fell completely.

Just to say that even Wanyan Loushi who came to persuade him to surrender couldn't help but gasp.

After all, with such an advancing speed, the An Lushan rebels would be able to sweep across the entire territory of Youzhou in just one month.

At that time, since Wanyan Zonghan offered his plan, in fact Wanyan Loushi was still in a state of anxiety on the way!
I don't know if I can successfully persuade An Lushan to rebel and win opportunities for my army.

However, the facts were unexpected, because Wanyan Loushi succeeded in persuading An Lushan to rebel without any effort at all.

However, this is not all due to Wanyan Loushi, the main reason is that An Lushan has deep resentment.

In the past, it was just because Luo Yi was personally in charge of the Beiping Palace, and the management was very strict, An Lushan couldn't find a chance for him.

Now, the main force of the Yan army has already fought against the Jin army. This is a god-sent opportunity!
Therefore, even if there is no provocation from Wanyan Loushi, according to An Lushan's ambition, he will automatically raise troops and stand on his own.

Zhuojun, the prefecture

At this time, An Lushan sat in the first place, and the generals below stood in two rows.

The leaders are Shi Siming, Cai Xide and other generals, and Wanyan Loushi behind them.

It is only said that after the entire occupation of Zhuojun, two factions were formed in its internal opinions.

One faction was headed by Cai Xide, who agreed to lead the army northward to break through Shanggu County and approach Beiping County, threatening Wangcheng.

However, Shi Siming's faction believed that their own army should move closer to Jizhou, with the goal of capturing Jizhou.

The reason is that Youzhou is far less prosperous than it is.

Only by capturing Jizhou can our own army avoid the worry of logistical supplies.

Then recuperate, and then lead the army to the north to recover Youzhou and eliminate Luo Yi.

Among them, Cai Xide's plan is a safe move. After all, Luo Yi's main army is now gathering at the Yuyang defense line to resist the Jin army.

At this time, its interior is very empty, as long as it attacks with all its strength, it will be easy to occupy Youzhou!

As for Shi Siming's proposal to seize Jizhou as a base, it is a very risky plan.

It should be noted that the forces in Jizhou at this time can be described as intricate and messy.

The anti-Wang Gao Tansheng separatized the two counties of Boling and Hejian, and his strength should not be underestimated!

Then, Dou Jiande, who came from a poor background, called himself King Xia and took Zhaojun as his royal city.

Its strength is the strongest among the Jizhou separatists.

Later, there was Bohai County near the eastern coast, where Yuan Shao stationed troops.

Although Yuan Shao's territory is pure and weak, but because of his prominent family background, local wealthy families in Jizhou offered support and curry favor one after another.

Therefore, with the support of the rich and famous families in Jizhou, Yuan Shao's strength is not inferior at all.

Therefore, Shi Siming's plan to capture Jizhou is much more difficult than the plan to attack the entire territory of Youzhou.

Not only that, but the slightest carelessness in this plan will lead to destruction.

For a while, the two factions were quarreling, but neither could convince the other.

Immediately, An Lushan also fell silent. In fact, he had a plan in his heart, but just to be on the safe side, he still asked Wanyan Loushi.

"General Wanyan, I heard that you Jinjun are all capable of conscripting and fighting."

"So, I don't know General Wanyan, what advice do you have for the two plans of our army?"

Immediately, An Lushan threw the question to Wanyan Loushi and asked him.

Hearing this, Wanyan Loushi observed An Lushan's expression carefully for a moment, and he knew that An Lushan had a countermeasure long ago.

However, people have to bow their heads under the eaves!
After pondering for a long time, Wanyan Loushi said slowly: "General An, someone is from outside the Great Wall, and I don't know much about the situation in your Central Plains."

"Therefore, I don't want to make too many comments. However, for the sake of safety, I still hope that General An can adopt a strategy to seize the entire territory of Youzhou."

"It should be noted that at this time, the forces in Jizhou are complicated and complicated, which is not conducive to quick capture at all, but only conducive to gradual plans!"

"At this moment, Luo Yi's main army is dragged by me, Da Jin, to the northern line of defense, and its interior can be described as very empty."

"This is a god-sent opportunity. As the saying goes: What God gives, what he doesn't take, will be harmed instead!"

"So, I ask the general to think twice before acting."

I just want to say that although Wanyan Loushi refused on the surface, he still explained An Lushan's doubts vaguely.

After all, Wanyan Loushi's real plan to instigate An Lushan's rebellion was to disrupt Luo Yi's overall plan.

Because, only when Anlu Mountain revolted, the greater the commotion, the more civil turmoil in the Youzhou Army.

Jin Jun was thus able to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the fire!
Therefore, Wanyan Loushi definitely does not want An Lushan to point the finger at Jizhou in the south.

Because, in this way, Jin Jun has no chance to take advantage of.

However, after hearing Yan Loushi's words, although An Lushan was a little moved, he still hadn't made up his mind completely.

Immediately, Cai Xide, the general of the rebel army, stood up again and persuaded, "General, capturing Youzhou will benefit our army even more."

"As long as our army captures the important areas of Shanggu and Beiping, we can attack Luo Yi's main force together with the Jin army."

"At that time, as long as Luo Yi is eliminated, how can we talk about our army not being able to dominate Youzhou?"

"Then, our army is in an alliance with the Jin army, advances and retreats together, and then collects Liaodong outside the customs!"

"In this way, our army can reform the government internally, reorganize the army, and train the cavalry."

"In time, if our army joins forces with the Golden Army's iron cavalry to go south, are we afraid that we won't be able to sweep all over Jizhou?"

I have to say that Cai Xide's analysis can be described as comprehensive!

In the blink of an eye, the pros and cons of each place were thoroughly analyzed.

At this time, An Lushan finally made up his mind to take the complete capture of Youzhou as his goal.

It's just that it is impossible not to guard against the direction of Jizhou. In the end, after consideration, An Lushan ordered Shi Siming to lead [-] troops to guard Zhuojun and station troops on the defense line.

The main function is to prevent Jizhou against the king Gao Tansheng, or Yuan Shao, Dou Jiande took the opportunity to go north!
Immediately afterwards, An Lushan personally led the army, with Cai Xide as the general, leading an army of [-] to Shanggu and Beiping, Youzhou, and slowly attacked!
For a moment, people in Youzhou were panicked.

Obviously, the era of changing the sky in Youzhou has arrived.

…………

At this time, in the northern part of Youzhou, the Yuyang defense line
Now, Luo Yi is discussing military affairs with the generals and formulating the next battle plan.

However, following an urgent battle report that came suddenly, Luo Yi hurriedly read it, and suddenly turned pale with shock!
