Chapter 921 Three Wins and Three Losses
Chapter 923
Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a corner; those who do not seek a corner are not enough to seek the overall situation.
From the very beginning, Li Xingzai's purpose was not only to defeat Hong's 200,000 Jiangnan Army. If this is the case, then his appetite is too small, and Chu Yunsheng, as the operator of this overall situation, is far from being vicious.
If you win, you have to chase after the victory.
In addition to the terrain advantage, Wangchuankou has another advantage. That is, it is close enough to Yangzhou City.
The march was accelerated, approaching Yangzhou City all the way, and taking advantage of Yangzhou City's empty defenses, took Yangzhou City in one fell swoop.
Li Xingzai also has an advantage, that is his surname. He shares the same surname as Li Xing. It is a family matter. If Li Xingzai could defeat Li Xing and replace him, at best it would be a fight between uncles and nephews, and outsiders would not intervene very much.
Yangzhou will be settled, then Jiangnan will be settled. Once you have Jiangnan, you can confront the Yeyuan Fire across the river.
That's the real decisive battle.
In contrast, Li Xingzai is the real high roller. He launched all the chips in his hand, and his situation was no less than taking chestnuts in the fire, and he wanted to fight for a chance.
Since he dared to go to the gambling table, Li Xingzai did not intend to walk down easily. If you win, you have to take all your chips, and if you lose, you will lose everything.
In Jiangnan, Li Xingzai was ready to fight for his life, but at this moment his opponent was still in a dream, undecided about what happened.
...
Zhu Qi rushed back to the camp, but saw that everyone was packing their bags.
As soon as he looked up, he saw He Shen sitting on the terrace, holding a cup of tea in his hand, sipping tea leisurely.
He turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the pawn who came over, and walked quickly to Heshen's side.
"gentlemen……"
He Shen waved his hand, motioning him to stay calm, and then slowly said, "I'm back, how are things going?"
"Mr. Qiqi, my subordinates rushed to Wangchuankou non-stop. As expected, Donghai soldiers hid in Wangchuankou, and my subordinates relayed the words of the gentleman to Marshal Hong."
"and then?"
"Then..." Zhu Qi paused and said, "The marshal asked me to tell Mr. that he has considered everything on the front line, so he doesn't need to worry about Mr.
After speaking, he quietly observed the expression on Heshen's face, but found that he had almost no expression. After a long silence, he sighed softly.
"I only thought after you left that it would be better not to let you go. Once I send the letter to Hong, I'm afraid he will go his own way." He Shen paused: "Young people are too eager to prove themselves and often lack consideration. "
Zhu Qi was not a fool either, he understood the meaning of Heshen's words at that time. He was stunned for a while, and said: "Isn't it possible, our troops are far stronger than the East Navy, and now that they are trapped in Wangchuankou, they still have the strength to turn over?"
Heshen shook his head and said: "The battle between soldiers is nothing more than the right time and place to benefit people and people. Wangchuankou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Eastern Navy occupies the geographical advantage. There is no way to fight against the water. Two wins; besides, Hong Luo is too young after all, this one wins three..."
Zhu Qi was stunned, and suddenly realized that He Shen was really teaching himself, and he was busy keeping it in his mind. He is a person who seeks to make progress, and through the path He Shen gave him, he will naturally walk out of his own world.
His eldest brother stood behind Heshen, but he watched his heart, his heart watched his mouth, and didn't say a word.
"Mr. means that it is not easy for our army to win."
"It's not easy, it's almost certain to be defeated." He Shen sighed with palms: "If Li Xingzai has three victories, our army will have three defeats, and the leader of the army is Hong again..."
When Hong was mentioned, He Shen had nothing to say, only shook his head and sighed.
Originally, Heshen was quite fond of Hong. At a young age, he holds a high position, but he is not arrogant or impetuous, and he treats people politely. He is a seedling who does great things. But this is only the first impression, and the first impression is often unreliable.
Beneath its charitable appearance, it is completely a small belly. There is not much ability, but his temper is quite large, and he has many shortcomings that young people should have.
How could such a person be Li Xingzai's opponent? About Li Xingzai, He Shen knew it too well. He looked rough, but he had wolf ambitions inside. And his ups and downs were exactly what Hong Liao lacked the most.
"Forget it, when you came back, the battle had already begun, and soon, our army would be ruined."
Zhu Qi was startled, and He Shen's words were too scary.
Does the victory and defeat on the battlefield come so fast? Although Zhu Qi has been accommodating Shen on the front line, he has not personally participated in the battle. Now, it is a deeper understanding of war.
"Sir, what should we do then?" Zhu Qi asked.
He Shen clapped his hands, and a soldier brought up one person, his face was bloody, and he couldn't see the original appearance clearly. Zhu Qi didn't recognize it at the beginning, but after a closer look, he recognized that this person was the leader of the original Crocodile Village, Su Fen, nicknamed Guitoujiao.
As soon as Guitou Jiao appeared, he shouted and said, "Sir, spare your life, spare your life, I have never betrayed you."
Zhu Qi couldn't bear to look directly, and Boss Zhu also turned his head to one side.
He Shen sneered: "This person was once captured by Li Xingzai, and then released for no reason. He didn't know that he had fallen into Chu Yunsheng's trick, and he didn't mention a word about his capture."
"My lord, it's true that your subordinates were captured, but they did not betray Jiangnan."
"You have the intention to hide it for the purpose of protecting yourself. It's not that I can't understand it. I am a generous person. If you tell the truth, I may not treat you any way, but you shouldn't hide it..."
Looking at Guitoujiao's face, and thinking of the word "generous" in Heshen's mouth, it really makes people shudder.
"Chu Yunsheng has a general's seat waiting for you. Hong Liu wants to give you credit, but unfortunately you shouldn't be smart. No one can hide from my eyes." He Shen stared into Guitoujiao's eyes and slowly Said: "My eyes can see through people's hearts."
Boss Zhu behind He Shen has lowered his head.
He Shen waved his hand at will, and the soldiers pushed the ghost head Jiao down.
Only at this moment did Zhu Qi realize that the soldier holding the ghost-headed Jiaojiao was actually Wang Dachong from the original Crocodile Village.
Heshen's grasp of people's hearts and his tyranny in employing people are really chilling.
"Sir, I just saw that the soldiers are all starting camp?" Zhu Qi wanted to forget about this and changed the topic.
He Shen nodded: "After Hong Lu's defeat, we have nothing to do here, and now it's time to leave."
"Dare you ask, sir, we're going there."
"It's time to fight against Li Xingzai." He Shen stood up, raised his head and looked into the distance.
