Wei and Jin Cooks

Chapter 1208 The hexagram is accurate

Zu Ti is not blind. They are hiding and he can't catch them. He can only suspect that King Langya is hiding people, but he can't say anything yet;

 But how could they not be aware of the huge noise caused by their fight?

Zu Ti vaguely realized that he had misunderstood King Langya, and immediately asked Zuo Min to lead an army to check.

Zuo Min led his men to lie down on a hilltop and watch them fight. When they were almost done fighting, he then took out the Zhao Jiajun's military flag and the "ancestral" flag.

Dai Yuan suddenly saw the "Zhao" flag floating on the top of the mountain and was shocked, "When did the Zhao army cross the river?"

Seeing Zu Ti’s flag again, his face turned pale, “Is Zu Ti leading the army?”

 Chen Fan, whose weapon was cut off by Dai Yuan and almost died when he heard it, turned pale and said, "You don't know that King Langya has surrendered to Zhao Hanzhang?"

Dai Yuan:…

 He doesn’t know anything.

Like Dai Yuan, Wang Gui dragged Dai Miao all the way to Yuzhang County and prepared a lot of words to persuade him to surrender. However, when he heard the report from the guards, he was shocked: "General, go to build King Kangqin? Why didn't we know that all the way?" I haven’t received any news.”

 No wonder Yuzhang failed in two battles against Wang Dun. It turned out that Dai Yuan was not in the army.

Wang Gui stamped his feet and said to Dai Miao: "Since General Dai is not here, it is better for General Dai to stay here and command this army."

Dai Miao opened his mouth and lowered his voice: "Although we are brothers, my brother's lieutenant may not obey my orders."

Wang Guidao: "I'm here to persuade them."

 He asked the deputy general three questions, "Is General Dai loyal to King Langya?"

  Lieutenant General: “Yes.”

Otherwise, how could he go to Jiankang City to serve as King Qin?

"King Langya has surrendered to General Zhao. Have you received this order?"

  Lieutenant General: “I got it.”

“Is General Dai surrendering to General Zhao along with King Langya at this time?”

 The deputy general was silent for a moment and then said: "Yes."

Wang Gui immediately pushed Dai Miao out and said: "Wang Dun acted rebelliously and openly plotted rebellion. He originally marched towards Jiankang, but now he turned south. Obviously, he knew that he was defeated by the imperial army, so he wanted to seize Guangzhou. .”

"Guangzhou has many mountains and forests, and there are many miasmas. It would be even more difficult for him to escape to Guangzhou and suppress the rebellion. Therefore, guarding Yuzhang is the top priority. If General Dai is not here, it is better to ask General Dai to manage military affairs on his behalf so that he can fight with King Xuan of Jingzhou. The generals cooperate to put down the rebellion."

 The lieutenant hesitated for a moment and then gritted his teeth and agreed.

Dai Miao is Dai Yuan's biological brother. He knew that the two brothers had always had a good relationship and had the same political views. It was better to hand over the army to Dai Miao than to be defeated by Wang Dun.

Wang Gui breathed a sigh of relief. Although he failed to complete the task entrusted by Zhao Hanzhang to persuade Dai Yuan to surrender, he allowed Dai Miao to take charge of the Yuzhang Dai Jiajun army. Is this half completed?

Dai Jiajun and Jingzhou Army formally cooperated, and the two armies formed a common force to resist Wang Dun's army.

Wang Dun's vanguard launched seven attacks in two days. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, but they failed to capture Nanchang County, Yuzhang County.

Wang Dun stood silent in front of the map, while Du Hong reported in a low voice: "I just received the battle report. Mi Ce and Zhao Ju led an army of 50,000 people from Yiyang County southward to attack Lujiang in two ways. Wang Yifeng from Jingzhou also sent troops. , coming towards us, there is also a large army, I don’t know who the leader is, and it has already reached Xunyang, Linhu and Xiang’an counties.”

Seeing Wang Dun's silence, Du Hong said: "Zu Ti issued a proclamation saying that they had sent 800,000 troops to the south of the Yangtze River and had surrounded them..." Wang Dun slammed the table, and Du Hong shut up. Say nothing again.

Wang Bin comforted Wang Dun and said: "In a war, the number of troops and horses is doubled and an additional 100,000 are reported. If you ask me, the Zhao Army will send up to 400,000 troops this time, and maybe only 300,000 can be used."

If Zhao Hanzhang were here, she would definitely not be able to help but praise Wang Bin. He was right about his guess.

Du Hong cheered up and said: "Three hundred thousand troops, they are crossing the river again. The terrain is not familiar to us. I don't believe they can block every opening hand in hand. Yuzhang can't leave. At worst, they have to go around a lot." Some roads, general, why don't we go east and then south, they will be unable to do anything to us once we enter Guangzhou."

This is not what Wang Bin wants. He does not want to go to Guangzhou, which in his eyes is a wilderness. "Since they only have such a small number of people, isn't it easy to counterattack with my brother's ability?"

Wang Dun glanced at him and said, "Zu Ti is neither Sima Rui nor Dai Yuan. He has the same fighting ability. It is difficult for me to get benefits from him."

Wang Dun only has 300,000 people, and a considerable part of these 300,000 people are doing logistics work. They can be called combat strength, which is only 240,000 to 50,000.

"What's more, Zu Ti still has Sima Rui's men." Wang Dun said: "You have to stay alive and preserve your strength before you have the chance to do other things."

 So he took Du Hong's suggestion and decided to go east first and then south, but he did not intend to give up the Yuzhang road.

 So he asked Wang Bin and Wang Ying to move eastward with Du Hong, while he personally led a large army south to support Yuzhang.

He entrusted Wang Bin seriously, "Half of my wealth is entrusted to you. You should listen to Du Hong's advice and definitely bring these properties and people to Guangzhou."

These people and money are the foundation for him to start another incident.

Wang Bin also responded solemnly.

Wang Dun went to battle in person, and his morale was restored a lot.

In addition, he also sent several armies to block the rear to prevent the armies of Zu Ti, Zhao Ju, Wang Yifeng and others from going south.

Wang Dun's new strategy worked. Zhao's army was unable to pursue him for a while. He led the army and rushed towards Yuzhang County fiercely.

In the rear where Wang Dun could not see, Zhao Shi learned from the newly captured grain collection team that a large amount of grain and grass had been sent to the east, so he immediately changed direction and said, "Wang Dun must want to escape from the east. We Keep chasing!”

 Ever since he first captured the grain requisition team and discovered that he could get the movements of Wang Dun's main force from them, he especially liked to capture the grain requisition team.

Zhao Shi happily chased after Wang Dun's family.

Not far away from him, Zhao Shencai captured a county town. Because Zhao Shi wandered around and moved freely, he did not know that his cousin was not far away.

At this time, he was kneeling on the city tower. After bowing devoutly in all directions, he took out the tortoise shell and threw and calculated it seriously.

The scout who ran up was panting and wanted to report. Zhao Shen stretched out his hand to block him and stopped him from continuing, "I calculated that Wang Dunli was in the east. He must have fled eastward, right?"

The scout followed him all the way from Luoyang to here. He was not surprised by this, and replied honestly: "The general is great, you can calculate it. Wang Dun's main force did go east, but Wang Dun himself led an army southward." , look at the direction, it’s heading towards Yuzhang.”

Zhao Shen put away the tortoise shell and said, "Then I've calculated half of it accurately. If I round it up, it's accurate. Okay, let's organize the army. Let's go meet General Wang for a while!"

See you tomorrow
