Therefore, Shi Si despised Meng Jiucheng, did not want to participate in consultations, nor did he want to cooperate in combat, so he could not make excuses; and Peng Yibin also had his own considerations. In addition to Zhouzhi (now Linyi), he already occupied most of Yizhou. If Xiazhou city could be conquered, the territory would be connected and there would be no threat. In addition, if Xiazhou was conquered, he would be famous and would be captured in a large number.

Since Peng Yibin made the decision, although Cheng Fu was sent by Liu Erzu, he knew that the matter was settled. Now he only needs to report to Liu Erzu as a show of respect, and it does not require official approval from Liu Erzu.

Next, Meng Jiucheng, Peng Yibin and others conducted specific discussions to determine the operation time and route of each department.

Peng Yibin fought against Yizhou and knew a lot about the city. After hearing this, Meng Jiucheng also corrected the plan to break the city.

"Our army advanced west from Banquan Town, and to the east of Yizhou. The army gathered in the south and west directions. In the north, even if it was a hole for the enemy." Meng Jiucheng pointed to the map and said, "If you have the illusion of encirclement of three quarts and one, the enemy will definitely not be fooled. You will give up an important place like the city. As long as the enemy does not break through, our encirclement and annihilation plan will be successful. As long as the encirclement and trenches are built outside the city gate, the enemy will become a turtle in the jar. After the city is broken, they can't escape even if they want to!"

Cheng Fu frowned and said, "I will report to the general, pay attention to the movements in Yizhou, and prevent the Jin army from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

To the north of Yizhou are Mengyin, Yinan and other places, which belong to the Yimeng Mountains and is the base of Liu Erzu. What if the Jin army in Yizhou is really frightened by the three arches and one yard and breaks through the north? Of course, the possibility is very small, but it should be done just in case.

The most important thing to guard against when attacking Yizhou is Pizhou in the south. Pizhou Governor Heshi Lie Huanduan was a relatively powerful guy. But at this time, there was Shi Si and Xia Quan was active in Pizhou. Heshi Lie Huanduan's troops were limited, so there were possibility of aid, but there were not many reinforcements. Meng Jiucheng felt that it could be successfully blocked. He even had the plan to ambush his reinforcements and win again.

Moreover, the siege of Yizhou can be quickly and secretly, and Peng Yibin's men can also act in advance, intercept the messenger, and cut off the communications from Yizhou to Pizhou, so that the Pizhou Jin army had no idea about Yizhou.

Peng Yibin admired Meng Jiucheng's plan very much, with one word "detailed". This is different from their previous actions, more rigorous and thoughtful, and the hope for success is greater.

Of course, Peng Yibin should also have an observation and understanding of Meng Jiucheng and Red Turban Army. Although the plan is good, it depends on the actual results. Therefore, he is cautious and is very serious in dispatching troops and generals. He spares no effort to fight for the interests and security of his own army.

In response, Meng Jiucheng made some concessions, but also insisted on the set bottom line. Finally, he changed the plan and agreed that Peng Yibin's troops would meet with the Red Turban Army in Tanghe Town, twenty miles away from Yizhou, and advance together, reaching the city directly, and then divide it into three sides, west and east, to surround the city.

Although this is a bit stupid, the first time we cooperate, both sides will inevitably have some suspicion, fearing that the other party will deliberately delay. If the army arrives at the city first, it may be attacked by the Jin army from the city. Everyone gets together, as fast as fast as possible, and as slow as possible, so there is no worry.

As for intercepting and cutting off contact, it will be handed over to Peng Yibin's troops. As long as a team of 180 people are divided, there will be more tripping ropes on the main roads and small roads, and digging the trapped horse pits, it will be almost enough.

In the struggle for each other's interests and security and in the bargaining compromise, the two sides finally reached an agreement. The action plan was finally finalized, and both sides were relieved.

This day passed, and Meng Jiucheng and Peng Yibin were satisfied with the result. They saved the drink and talk, and each brought people back and went to make arrangements.

The sun had already disappeared behind the distant and blurred horizon. When the curtain fell, Meng Jiucheng and his personal guards were still running back to Banquan Town.

In the past, we were busy developing and ignored the chaos outside; now we are actively uniting and cannot sit idly by and watch the success or failure of other rebels.

In this transformation, first of all, the Red Turban Army has already had strong strength and can win a certain voice in the alliance; secondly, Meng Jiucheng's thoughts are gradually mature, and he realizes that he cannot be protected by himself. Although the Red Coat Army is not strong in combat and some of its military disciplines are also poor, its current common enemy is the Jin army, and this alone has a basis for cooperation.

If Yizhou is captured, the threat to the south will be greatly reduced; Liu Erzu can support the Yimeng Mountains for a long time, which is also quite beneficial to the safety of the flanks of the base. Therefore, the Red Turban Army can draw the main force to focus on defending the north, and use these time to gather and integrate the defeated troops of Yang Aner, Li Guosan and other troops, continue to expand their strength and enhance their military preparations.

Han Shouzhong was acting as avant-garde in front, and at this time he slowed down his horse and approached Meng Jiucheng, and spoke to interrupt Meng Jiucheng's thoughts.

"General, have our army made too much concessions in this joint battle? Will this make them look down upon it, as if we are begging them?"

Meng Jiucheng smiled and said, "You will only come to the beginning, but you didn't expect that in the future. When our army breaks through Yizhou, will they still dare to look down on it? Besides, if you want to take it first, you must give it first. Give some benefits. What we want is the long-term and reduce the threat to the south. If they taste the sweetness and cooperate in the future, we will not be as easy as we are now."

Han Shouzhong nodded, but was puzzled in his heart and said, "Actually, our army can wait for a while. When its strength is stronger, it can completely capture Yizhou alone."

"Can't wait!" Meng Jiucheng shook his head and said, "We have made a judgment before, thinking that Yang An'er's failure is very likely. Although the main force of the Jin army may turn to attack Li Quan from Linqu, Zibo and Qingzhou, Li Quan probably won't last long. If the two Red Coat Army troops in the north are defeated, our army may face the Jin army directly. Therefore, the sooner the main force turns to the north, the more beneficial it is for us and safer it is."

"Yang An'er is about to fail?" Han Shouzhong finished speaking, and before Meng Jiucheng could answer, he asked and answered: "Yes, we don't know how long he can last. It is a perfect solution to make arrangements early."

"The arrangement has begun now. The second and sixth masters are all in the north, building fortresses and strengthening defenses." Meng Jiucheng said: "And the military operations in the south are only one month at most. If Yizhou goes down, the fifth master will rush to Tashan to take charge and focus on guarding the enemy in Haizhou."

"One month--" Han Shouzhong thought for a while, nodded and said, "If you only hit Yizhou, there will be plenty of time."

Meng Jiucheng smiled and said nothing more. In his heart, he didn't just want to defeat Yizhou and just want to be done. In addition to hoping that the institute could create a more powerful bronze cannon, he also wanted to see the changes in the situation after attacking Yizhou and continue to expand the results in the south!
