"The Jingzhou Navy uses the Jingzhou Navy to separate the natural danger of Cangjiang, and to restrain our Northern Army from the north, it is difficult to get involved in the southern part. This person is now in the wealthy Jingzhou and Jiangzhou. He then plans to include the vast northwest areas such as Xiangzhou, Ganzhou, and Shanzhou under his command. He has a four-point world pattern." Yao Changkun pondered: "By the analysis of the last general, this is Cheng Qun's wishful thinking. He has an incomparable innate advantage!"

"What's the advantage?" Yun Zhao dipped his hands into wine and casually drew out the general outline of Dayue on the table.

"Now that Li Da and Li Si are fighting fiercely, Cheng Qun has become the target of their rush to win over." Yao Changkun said: "Cheng Qun's army entered Jiangzhou, forcing Su Can and Congliang to separate most of the troops to return to defense, but he stopped moving. This made Xiao Zhongze and Xue Chengyi of Tongzhou dare not launch a large-scale attack on the Su Cong Group, because Xue Chengyi also had to take into account the attack from the south. Li Si is now eager to open up the north-south passage and meet with Su Cong. Cheng Qun stopped to encircle and suppress the Su Cong Group in the name of the Bailian Duji of Xiangzhou, and instead entered Xiangzhou. In fact, he had sent a strong signal. How could Li Si not understand?"

"So Li Da and Li Si will rush to win over Cheng Qun, so that Cheng Qun has enough time and space to complete his control and layout of the northwest. However, because of the great enemy of the Mongol Yuan, we will inevitably be struggling. Even if we can defeat the Mongol Yuan in the end, we will definitely be greatly damaged and unable to look south. Cheng Qun can sit and watch the brothers Li Da and Li Si kill each other, and he will laugh and take advantage of the fisherman!" Yun Zhao's fingers surrounded the northwest with Jingzhou and Jiangzhou together.

"Governor wise, that's exactly that!" Yao Changkun nodded.

"I'm very good at making a calculation, but I'm afraid I won't get what I want!" Yun Zhao sneered, "Be careful not to steal chickens and lose rice!"

"The Governor said that we have General Yan in Jiangnan, this chess game?" Yao Changkun stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Yun Zhao's bowl.

"Yes, I have reminded Hong Niang to be careful about Baotaowei in Xiangzhou!" Yun Zhao nodded, "Hong Niang has been familiar with military books since childhood and is well versed in strategy. She has grown up in wars since she was a child. She has a sensitivity to war that ordinary people cannot reach. As long as she is concerned, Baotaowei will not gain the upper hand. Cheng Qun wants to defeat her with a team of Baotaowei, so don't even think about it!"

"Governor, General Yan entered the Central Plains alone and built this huge foundation within a few years. The general is extremely impressed by the general. But the general is exactly what the general is worried about." Yao Changkun looked at Yun Zhao. "The general has to pay attention to this."

"oh?"

"The Governor once told me about his past with General Yan. From those things, General Yan is an extremely strong person, and it can even be said that he is a person who is unwilling to be inferior to anyone." Yao Changkun's eyes flashed, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

"You said!" Yun Zhao was surprised and looked at Yao Changkun and said.

"The so-called black ears under the lamp. The relationship between the governor and General Yan was extraordinary, so he naturally ignored some special things in General Yan's character." Yao Changkun smiled and said.

When Yun Zhao heard Yao Changkun's words with puns, he couldn't help but feel a little hot.

"The governor was like General Yan back then. In contrast, the form of the governor was even more sinister, and he was even in the midst of life and death every day. However, in a few years, the governor's achievements today have far surpassed that of General Yan. I think General Yan was also unwilling to be convinced when he was happy. This time the governor met General Yan and told him to keep a river bank point without plotting for the entire Xiangzhou. General Yan agreed, but maybe he was thinking about giving the governor a surprise." Yao Changkun said slowly.

Yun Zhao slowly sat upright, and Yao Changkun's words made him alert. When he thought of Hong Niangzi's personality, he felt a little uneasy.

"She has promised me, probably not?" Yun Zhao's words revealed a little disconfidence.

"Governor, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of something!" Yao Changkun's expression became serious, "General Yan's relationship with us is completely related to her personal feelings with the general. To put it bluntly, the White Lotus Cult Army in Jiangnan has no unity with our Northern Expedition Army. The Governor cannot directly order them. They also have their own interests. After all, the composition of this White Lotus Cult Army is also very complicated. The pressure of subordinates and the mentality of competing with the Governor may prompt General Yan to launch a war with Baotaowei for Xiangzhou!"

Yun Zhao stood up and paced around the room repeatedly, his expression becoming more and more serious.

"The governor is actually not optimistic about the battle between General Yan and Cheng Qun in Xiangzhou?" Yao Changkun stood up and walked behind Yun Zhao.

Yun Zhao turned around and nodded, "Yes, I have had contact with Cheng Qun and Jiang Guangyu, a group of people. These are a group of generals with extremely rich experience in old Yu's war. Moreover, they have experienced the test of war, and their equipment and combat effectiveness must surpass Bai Lian Cult Army. In addition, Cheng Qun's super strategic planning ability, I am worried that if Miaomiao is really as you said, she will suffer a big loss."

"What's more, once the Xiangzhou battle begins, Cheng Qun can completely mobilize troops into Xiangzhou. Cong Liang and Su Can will not be stupid enough to take this opportunity to attack Cheng Qun. They must plan to go south and join Li Si before talking. Cheng Qun is in the name of extermination of the White Lotus bandits, and Li Da has nothing to say. On the contrary, he has to strongly support him, hoping that he will quickly defeat the White Lotus bandits and turn back to attack Li Si again." Yun Zhao waved.

"So the governor, in the first step, you have to warn General Yan in his private name, and in the second step, we probably have to make certain arrangements!" Yao Changkun said.

Yun Zhao stroked his forehead with his hand and let out a heavy breath, knowing that he had been neglected. Hong Niangzi was his woman. In his heart, he classified her power into his own territory, subconsciously regarded her subordinates as part of the Northern Expedition Army, but ignored Hong Niangzi's character. It is difficult to make a new arrangement now.

It is impossible to reduce troops on the other end of the Mongolian Yuan. Although I have done a lot of work to promote civil strife in the Mongolian Yuan, even if the civil strife in the Mongolian Yuan and the internal battles are in chaos, they are the power of a country. They have accumulated decades of strength for the southern expedition. At best, their series of actions have brought both sides to the same starting line, and they have not had much advantage. In Luzhou, the Northern Expedition Army has not even maintained a strong armed force. Qin Yiliang Pu, it is impossible to draw troops in a short period of time, let alone, even if there are soldiers, how can they cross the river? The navy is just a plan.

Where did the soldiers come from? Yun Zhao thought about it and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

Yao Changkun looked at Yun Zhao quietly. He was naturally clear about the dilemma of the Northern Army, but he had no better way.

"Changkun, Qin Yiliang Pu's four prefectures must stabilize as soon as possible. I need at least one battalion to enter Boyang and other places, and be prepared just in case!" Yun Zhao thought for a while and finally made a decision.

"If things really develop to the unfavorable side, even if we have troops, how can we cross the river? The Jingzhou Navy is in Cheng Qun's hands, and he will definitely guard us carefully."

"The rank of the army is thinking of buying a ship!" Yun Zhao waved his hand, "As long as there is an army, there is always a way to cross the river. Cangjiang is so long, it is not difficult to find an opportunity to cross the river. It is rare to provide them with support." Yun Zhao said: "A battalion of tens of thousands of people cross the river. It does not take much time to prepare for it, but once they cross the river, they have to fight alone. We cannot provide more support to them, because the Jingzhou Navy will inevitably block Cangjiang. But if things really come to that point, we must provide support to them!"

"Qinzhou and Yizhou have already stabilized and entered a period of stable development. Longzhou and Yanzhou have local tyrants, and they are still unable to do so for a while. We cannot push them into the embrace of Mengren, so we can only slowly plan!" Yao Changkun sighed.

Yun Zhao sneered, "I don't care about it now. I was just going to come to you to have a look, but now it seems that I have to stay for a while. Which place is more difficult in Longzhou and Yanzhou?"

Yao Changkun understood Yun Zhao's meaning, "Yanzhou! Yanzhou Pinghu Qin's family gathered about 20,000 troops. If the fight starts, he may gather more people. Longzhou is more occupied by small-scale powerful bandits."

"That's Yanzhou!" Yun Zhao slapped the table, "I want to kill the chicken to show the monkey. If the Qin family knows the appearance, it's better. If they don't know the appearance, I will let him understand what is a golden sword and iron horse? What is war. Notify Li Fugui to gather in the Fifth Battalion, and the small fish and shrimps in other places in Yanzhou ignore it. Those small-scale bandits made them proud first, concentrate their troops in Pinghu, and I went there in person."

"The governor went to command himself, and Changkun would naturally follow the saddle and horses." Yao Changkun smiled. "But the general, we are probably facing 20,000 Mengqi in Yanzhou City!"

"Natural!" Yun Zhao said: "But fighting with less and defeating the strong with weak has always been the strength of our Northern Army. Li Fugui's fifth battalion is a mule or a horse. This time I pulled it out and took a walk."

"It's better to transfer all the cavalry under Wang Qiang!" Yao Changkun reminded: "After all, we must be wary of the Mengqin from Yanzhou City coming to support the Qin family!"

"You are right! Just do it." Yun Zhao said: "Only by quickly pacifying Longyan, we can have enough troops to deal with the possible crisis! Changkun, I will authorize you to form a battalion in Qinyiliang Puxin, but I have to say the words ahead. I can't give you anything to the food and weapons of this battalion, and you have to solve it on the spot!"
