If Yang Xuangan's primary target of attack after launching a mutiny was not Dongdu, then Li Fengyun's westward advance to the Central Plains to plunder Tongji Canal can worsen the situation in Dongdu to a certain extent, this deterioration may not be beneficial to Yang Xuangan, and this may be the real reason why Li Mi came from the horse.

When Li Mi saw Li Fengyun silent, a hint of melancholy and uneasy appeared in his solemn expression. He couldn't help asking, "Who told you that we are going to attack Dongdu? Or is this your own guess? But with your strategy, you should know that the risk of attacking Dongdu is too great. Once we can't conquer for a long time, we will definitely die. There is such a huge risk, who dares to take a risk?"

Li Fengyun couldn't help it and tentatively said, "In a certain opinion, it is very difficult to attack Dongdu, but if you raise an army in July and take advantage of the Eastern Expedition to attack Dongdu, the best time is that the navy has crossed the sea to attack Dongdu, then there will be more time, and with time, everything is possible."

"Everything is possible?" Li Mi shook her head repeatedly, her expression on her face was very complicated, with disdain and helplessness. "It is because it is possible that it is complicated, and it is because it is complicated that it is even less possible."

Li Fengyun realized that Yang Xuangan and Li Mi had different opinions on the decision to make a mutiny, and Li Mi obviously found it difficult to convince Yang Xuangan. Li Fengyun continued to speak out and test, "Since you are so pessimistic about attacking the east, where is your goal? Go north or west?"

A hint of surprise flashed through Li Mi's eyes, and she couldn't help but blurt out, "How do you judge that a certain target is either going north or west?"

Li Fengyun smiled but said nothing. Of course, I knew that I knew the trajectory of history, but now I don’t have the strength to change the direction of history. The wheel of history is still on the inherent trajectory, so if nothing unexpected happens, your military strategy in this mutiny is still the famous "top, middle and bottom" strategy.

Li Mi continued to ask, "In your opinion, how about going north? So what about going west?"

"As far as I know, the Minister of the Yuan Dynasty, the General of the Left Guard, and the Duke of Ge Zhao Yuanshu were ordered to guard Linyu Pass. Linyu Pass was the throat connecting Youzhou and Liaodong. As long as Zhao Yuanshu raised his troops to respond, the food route of the expedition was cut off. The Holy Lord, the center and hundreds of thousands of expedition soldiers were also blocked from the loss of advance and retreat outside the pass. Although water transportation could support the Holy Lord, the support time was very limited. When the heavy snow and the cold winter came, the expedition army was in a dilemma of hunger and cold, and would inevitably collapse. In this way, the Holy Lord was defeated. This strategy just hit the main harm of the Holy Lord, which was the best strategy, but this strategy had fatal flaws."

When Li Fengyun talked about Zhao Yuanshu, Li Mi was very shocked and her face changed drastically. She wanted to urgently question Li Fengyun's source of information, but before he could speak, Li Fengyun came up with a plan to go north, which was easy to do, and seemed to have a case of affair. What surprised Li Mi again was that the plan that Li Fengyun said was exactly the same as his plan to go north, and what surprised him was that Li Fengyun actually questioned this plan and believed that this plan had a fatal flaw. So what was the flaw?

"Zhao Yuanshu does have the opportunity to launch a mutiny in Linyu Pass, but Zhao Yuanshu's move will not only threaten the safety of the Holy Lord, the center and hundreds of thousands of expeditionary soldiers, threaten the security of Liaodong and western Liaoning, but also threaten the security of the entire Middle Earth. Therefore, it can be foreseeable that as long as Zhao Yuanshu has some abnormal movements, the first one who is left behind in Zhuo County is Duan Da. Duan Da is the confidant and beloved general of the Holy Lord, who directly commands all the frontier garrisons in Zhuo County, Yuyang and Beiping counties, with at least 30,000 to 40,000 troops under his tent.

Under his command, the border army of Danyouzhou was attacking Linyu Pass frantically. In addition, the border army in the western Liaoning also tried its best to cooperate outside the pass. How long can Zhao Yuanshu support it? Zhao Yuanshu's military strength was originally limited, and the tent was full of the imperial guards. The imperial guards were in charge of the security of the Holy Lord and the palace. It is conceivable that his loyalty to the Holy Lord can be imagined. Even if Zhao Yuanshu deceived them and tricked them into the pirate ship, how long can this deception last? Once the truth is revealed, Zhao Yuanshu will be dead and will definitely be defeated.

"How long does it take for Duke Yue to raise an army in Liyang, summon the army, and then rush to Linyu Pass to meet Zhao Yuanshu? From Liyang to Jicheng, the capital of Zhuo County, then from Jicheng to Lulong, the capital of Beiping, and from Lulong to Linyu Pass, there are nearly two thousand miles. Even if you travel day and night, you will have to walk for more than half a month, and in the middle, you will be blocked by some officials and troops loyal to the Holy Lord, especially Jicheng, because Duan Da is in charge, it is even more insurmountable.

The obstacle. In this way, even if you successfully meet Zhao Yuanshu at Linyu Pass, it will probably take more than a month. In such a long time, the Holy Lord will definitely be able to return from Liaodong. The main force of the Imperial Guard led by the Holy Lord, the elite of the Xiaoguo Army, and the remaining troops from the Huaiyuan Town Expeditionary Army base, will reach Linyu Pass. At that time, how long can you last under the north and south attack of Duan Da and the Holy Lord?"

"More importantly, you went north to Linyu Pass and fought alone. Even if some allies raised troops in some places to respond, the impact on the east is too small and it does not constitute any substantial threat. This is the biggest flaw and the biggest failure of this strategy."

Li Fengyun's voice was not loud, but his tone was strong. In a few words, Li Mi's "best strategy" was completely dispelled.

Li Mi's face looked ugly, and she couldn't hide her shame and annoyance in her eyes, but he refuted speechlessly.

From a military perspective, this strategy is extremely naive from a political perspective. The military strength of the mutiny is not comparable to the military strength of the Holy Lord. Therefore, if the mutiny wants to defeat the holy Lord, he must first gain political advantages. He must seek allies in politics and support from more political groups, and then transform political advantages into military strength, and reverse military disadvantages step by step. When the mutiny's political and military advantages over the Holy Lord, victory is just around the corner.

Li Fengyun was still unsatisfied, and before Li Mi could react, he immediately questioned the strategy of moving westward.

"To advance west is to take Guanzhong, but Guanzhong has heavy troops and terrain advantages, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and you have no way to start with your strength alone. In addition, the people of Guanzhong have different political views, serious conflicts and fierce conflicts. Even if you are willing to compromise, you cannot compromise without limits and bottom-lines, and the people of Guanzhong will not miss such an excellent opportunity to attack you. Therefore, in the end, the soldiers will meet. You will eventually rely on military means to attack Guanzhong. Therefore, you will pin your hopes on Honghua, the left-behind Yuyang Yuan Hongsi."

"Yuan Hongsi was in charge of the military and politics of the thirteen counties of Longyou. He was the supreme commander of the Northwest Army and was strong. But what you never expected was that last year's eastern expedition had affected the situation in the northwest. Murong Fuyun, a Busabor Khan of Tuyuhun, began the plan to restore the country without hesitation and counterattack the West Sea. The Turks who followed the Western Turkic Khan into the Middle Earth were also ready to move in the Huining area of ​​Hexi, intending to return to the country. What's especially serious is that the newly rising Western Turkic Khan defeated the Tielite people and once again expanded his sphere of influence to Altai, forcing the Western Regions to surrender. In this way, the Holy Lord obtained the Western Expedition.

All the results of the battle have disappeared in the past period of time. The Western Xinjiang crisis was unprecedented. The Northwest Army had difficulty in defense. Yuan Hongsi had an unprecedented heavy pressure. Although he held heavy troops and the soldiers were eager to kill the enemy, the current national strength was all put into the Eastern Expedition. It was hard for a good cook to cook without rice. The Northwest Army lacked clothes and food, and lacked military strength. Not to mention active defense, even passive defense could not be achieved. Even the basic interests of Zhongtu in Western Xinjiang could not be maintained. In such a crisis, Yuan Hongsi had lost all authority and was in danger. At this moment, even if he was willing to change, he was willing to conquer Xijing and Guanzhong, he could not do anything. "

"If you lose the support of Yuan Hongsi and the powerful force of the Northwest Army, what are you going to attack Guanzhong? Therefore, there is no possibility of implementing the strategy of advancing westward."

Li Mi was shocked, not only shocked by Li Fengyun's clear understanding of the secrets of Zhao Yuanshu and Yuan Hongsi, but also shocked by his understanding of the three attack strategies he had drawn up. Among them, there were very few people who knew about Zhao Yuanshu and Yuan Hongsi, and even Li Zixiong knew only that. He only heard some secrets from Yang Xuangan after he arrived in Li Yang this time. The attack strategies he planned were based on these secrets. No one knew these strategies except for discussing them with a few mutiny planners such as Yang Xuangan, and Li Zixiong did not know them, but Li Fengyun knew that this was too terrible.

The secret was leaked, which was Li Mi's first reaction, and the answer was beyond doubt.

"Where did you know these secrets?" Li Mi finally spoke with a very ugly expression.

"Is this a secret?" Li Fengyun scoffed, "As long as you know who is planning a mutiny, as long as you know the current power of the mutiny, you can make countless deductions, and then eliminate them one by one, and finally guess a rough idea."

"This is absolutely impossible." Li Mi didn't believe it at all.

"If you say it's impossible, it's impossible?" Li Fengyun sneered, "Last year, someone told you that Dongzheng would be defeated. You said it's impossible, what's the result?"

Li Mi was speechless, but he never believed Li Fengyun's excuse. The secret of the mutiny must have been leaked. The most urgent task is to inform Yang Xuangan immediately and let Yang Xuangan launch a mutiny immediately. Anyway, he will die, and he can only fight to the death. However, in such a dangerous situation, he can only attack Dongdu.

Li Mi fell into deep thought, her face was gloomy and she tried her best to find solutions.

The development of the situation far exceeded Li Mi's expectations. It can be said that he caught him off guard. Although Yang Xuangan questioned the strategies of going north and west during the discussion in Li Yang before, because Dongdu was too difficult to fight, he did not insist on attacking Dongdu. The reason why Dongdu is difficult to fight is not because there are many garrison troops in Dongdu, nor because Dongdu's defense is strong, but because Dongdu's in Dongdu is too complicated, so complicated that it is like a mess, and it is unclear. The Holy Lord and a large group of reformist tycoons have worked together for almost ten years but have not been solved. How can Yang Xuangan and his allies solve it in just a few months?

Do you really want to fight Dongdu?
