Chapter 107: Qi State Strategy
In the Fengxiang Qi Palace, the Empress, Anton Jun and Hanba stood in front of the sand table, simulating the upcoming war.
Because of Li Cunxu's intervention, Zhu Youzhen still came to attack Qi State. Although An Dongjun had expected this, he still raised his middle finger and said, "I am really a ****."
After all, it is better not to fight Zhu Youzhen’s 200,000 soldiers if possible. Who would want to fight?
However, this is just a gamble. It doesn't matter if you make a wrong bet. The only difference is whether the army will perish at the hands of Li Cunxu or at the hands of the State of Qi.
Now several corpse ancestors of Xuanming Sect are working for Qi State, and the destruction of Daliang is a foregone conclusion.
"Wife, send a message to my brother-in-law and his family, and tell them to prepare to perform a play with me."
The empress nodded and responded: "Well, as you said last time, when Zhu Youzhen broke the news, I had already sent a letter to my brother, sister, and Liu Zhijun."
Fengxiang Prefecture is located in the western part of Guanzhong Plain, with high north and low south. The northern part is mountainous and hilly, with undulating terrain.
The southern part is a loess tableland, which is high in the northwest and low in the southeast.
If Zhu Youzhen's army wanted to break in, they would have to take the major official road in the southeast, but this official road happened to be flanked by mountains on both sides, which gave Qi State a lot of room for maneuver.
Anton Jun had anticipated this day, so when Hanba was in Fengxiang last year, he asked him to bury some explosives at various points in the southeast.
As long as Zhu Youzhen comes, they won’t be killed by the bomb.
"Okay, wait until my brother-in-law and the saints all come back.
You let Duo Wentian and Yang Yantian each lead 5,000 soldiers and carry the simple gunpowder made by Brother Hanba out of the city within two days, and use the cover of night to rush to the small woods on both sides of the mountains ten miles southeast of the city to wait for orders.
Then, when Zhu Youzhen's army arrived, she would let Fanyintian fight with Wang Yanzhang, while Guangmutian and Xuanjingtian would stand by to support her.
Remember, let them play with Wang Yanzhang for a while longer and try to attract the attention of their front troops. "
The current Saint Ladies are no better than in the original works. With the sparring guidance of Anton Jun, their skills have all reached the late Zhongtian level. It is easy for any of them to defeat Wang Yanzhang, who is in the middle Zhongtian level.
Anton Jun first gave some instructions to the empress, then turned to Hanba:
"Brother Hanba, when Wang Yanzhang and our army are about to fight to the death, I will send a signal. Then you can observe the position of the Liang army and choose which parts of the gunpowder under their feet to ignite."
Then he continued to say to Li Zhaozhao:
"After hearing the explosion, Duo Wentian and Yang Yantian led the ambush troops on the mountain to throw gunpowder to consume the enemy from a distance, and then charged directly into the center of the Liang army.
Our city defense coalition forces will wait until the Liang army's front troops are in disarray and retreat to defend, and then pursue them. When the five sides attack, the Liang army will surely be defeated!"
In this era, when two armies confronted each other, it was very easy for a fight to break out. Anton Jun asked the three holy ladies to hold back Wang Yanzhang, not because he was in a hurry for them to win, but just to prevent Wang Yanzhang from devoting his energy to managing the affairs in the rear.
(There really was a story of fighting generals in ancient times, and it was not just a rumor. I found that Zhou Dewei captured Chen Yasha alive in the "History of the Five Dynasties", so the story of fighting generals also makes sense.)
Finally, An Dongjun pointed to a certain spot on the sand table and said, "I heard that Zhu Youzhen has a firearm called 'Daliang Invincible General'.
And I will follow Zhu Youzhen in the identity of Corpse Ancestor Chu Yan, looking for opportunities to weaken their army along the way, and then take the opportunity to destroy that thing on the day of the decisive battle."
……
After some more matters were arranged, Hanba left consciously.
Leaving the two of them some space to get along, Anton Jun gently rubbed her soft hands and said, "Wife, there is no time to lose. I should leave too."
"be careful."
The empress felt distressed when she saw him trying his best to suppress his fatigue and not wanting to make her worry.
But she knew that there was nothing she could do about it. Anton-kun's purpose in doing this was to minimize the casualties in Qi State.
"Ok!"
Before leaving, he told Li Zhaozhao one last thing, which was to ask her to ask the servants to remove the poison from Li Cunzhong who had just arrived in Fengxiang, and then use Fanyintian's aphrodisiac incense to knock them down, and finally place them in the Xuanbing Cave.

two days later
Under the Gate of Hezhong Prefecture
After receiving a signal from Li Maozhen, the Qi army guarding the city shouted to the man in Confucian clothes downstairs, "Who is it?"
"The Xuanming Sect's Corpse Ancestor - Chu Yan, is here to pay his respects!"
Anton Jun looked up and exchanged a glance with Li Maozhen. The face under the mask chuckled, and then he released the aura of a peak Divine Sky Realm. He punched down the city gate and rushed in.
"I will go to meet the enemy, you retreat!" Li Maozhen ordered the soldiers beside him.
"But General, this...?"
Seeing that they wanted to say something else, Li Maozhen shouted impatiently: "This man has profound skills. Zhu Youzhen's army will surely attack later. You should leave quickly. Those who violate the rules will be punished by military law!"
After saying that, he ignored them and jumped down to fight with Anton-jun.

ten days later
In Shanzhou of Liang State, just as Zhu Youzhen's army arrived here, a messenger soldier hurried over.
"Report! Great victory news!"
Upon hearing the word "good news", Zhu Youzhen's expression showed a hint of joy for the first time in so many days, in front of everyone except Shi Yao.
"Read!"
Zhong Xiaokui observed this in time and quickly told the messenger to read it out.
“Your Majesty, Xuanming Sect’s Chu Yan Corpse Ancestor successfully summoned Hou Qing and Ying Gou Corpse Ancestors ten days ago.
Then he led the remaining Liang army defending the city and the surrounding Xuanming sect members to recapture Shangzhou, Tongzhou and other places. So far, all the five states that Qi State had taken away have been recovered by our army! "
“Good, good, good...!” Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed and said many good words. After so many days, he finally heard good news.
It is said that Zhuyan Corpse Ancestor was truly a remarkable man. He was able to call back the other two Corpse Ancestors. In just over ten days, he took back all the lost five states.
Zhong Xiaokui had the same reaction, "As expected of the corpse ancestor, he is so awesome!"
However, Shi Yao, who was serving Zhu Youzhen, noticed that something was wrong.
Logically speaking, no matter how powerful the corpse ancestors are, it shouldn't be so easy for them to take back the entire city in such a short time. After all, Li Maozhen, as the king of a region, is not made of paper.
But she just noticed something was wrong, and didn't think that it was a play by Corpse Ancestor and Qiguo.
After all, the cooperation between Xuanming Sect and Huanyinfang is too unbelievable.

On the top of the attic in Cangbing Valley, General Buliang looked at the seven-star compass in front of him with his eyes bloodshot.
"Mars is retrograde into the Purple Palace, and Venus is visible during the day. What...what is this?!
The Tang Dynasty fell, dynasties changed, the trend is unstoppable!
An! Dong! Jun! "
Buliang Shuai looked at his divination result in disbelief, clenched his fists and slammed the table hard, smashing it into pieces.
He had had a vague feeling when he was in Jiaolan Palace and guessed that Anton-Jun was going to take action.
But I didn't expect that I had just let Li Xingyun come out of retirement, and his speed was actually faster than mine.
"When Jupiter enters its prime, the chaotic world will end; when the sun and the moon soar in the sky, prosperity will return.
Unfortunately, it is not the same prosperity as the Tang Dynasty...”
At this moment, Buliangshuai's body became hunched and his entire state became listless.
He had just calculated that there was basically no hope for the restoration of the Tang Dynasty. If he forcefully intervened, the last trace of the dragon vein between him and the Tang Dynasty would be completely severed.
Although he is not afraid of death and still adheres to the philosophy of dominance and man can conquer nature, this already involves Li Xingyun's life and death, so he dare not gamble.
At this moment, his eyes fell on the three copper coins that fell to the ground when he broke the table, and his dull eyes regained a glimmer of light.
"No... that's not right. Kan is below and Li is above. Li is fire and Kan is water. Everything is at stake. Is there still a glimmer of hope?!"
(The Wei Ji hexagram can symbolize the end of an era and the beginning of a new era, just like the contradiction and conflict between the decline of a dynasty and the rise of a new dynasty. It shows that the general trend is that a new order is gradually being established, as well as the instability and uncertainty that may arise in this process. I don’t know if it’s right, so let’s just take it as it is.)
"After all...are you still going to see him?"
At this point, Yuan Tiangang's expression became paranoid again, with a ruthless look in his eyes: "Humph~ I will not lose."
