"In the court, many ministers led by Wang Yi were all asking for help from Jiangbei. The public opinion was fierce in the court watching Jiangbei fight fiercely. Since the incident had already happened, let Liao Zhongping lead his troops. If you win, it is Your Majesty's martial arts. If you lose, you will be punished with both crimes! This can not only deal with internal strange voices, but also show that Your Majesty's broad mind, why not do it?"

Zhu Meiren said with a smile: "But once the 60,000 army crosses the river... what you planned before...?"

"Your Majesty, even if you don't worry, Wu Zheng has been trapped in Huai'an City for half a month and is exhausted from fighting with the enemy. When both sides are injured, Zuoying crosses the river and may be able to change the situation in one fell swoop, but it cannot save Wu Zheng's life and death in Huai'an City..."

Zhu Mai said angrily: "Rareless! You said before that you only weaken the military strength of the Northern Expedition Army and promise that it will not endanger his life!"

Zhang Tongchang was stunned and quickly changed his words: "I am wrong... Your Majesty, don't worry, Huai'an City has Taizhou and Wusong Guards, with 30,000 people. In addition, Huai'an City is an important city with strong cities, and the city is strong. It is not difficult to defend it for one or two months... Besides, Wu Zheng was the prince after all, and he wanted to take his life among the 30,000 Northern Expedition Army, for fear that the enemy would not have the ability."

Zhu Ma's anger was not gone and he scolded: "I reiterate that he must live no matter what! Otherwise, don't blame me for punishing you for harming important officials of the court."

"I remember!"

"Hu..." Zhu Meiyu sighed lightly, "What do you mean is that if Zuoying crosses the river and attacks, it is very likely that Yangzhou, Chuzhou and other places will be recovered in one fell swoop?"

Zhang Tongchang nodded and said, "It should be so. Until now, the two sides have been in a stalemate and stalemate. As long as our army crosses the river and attacks, the land of one and two palaces is within reach."

"Then why not immediately order the entire army to attack and recover more lost territory?"

Zhang Tongchang was stunned and smiled bitterly, "Please forgive me for being rude... Your Majesty took it for granted. At this time, Zuoying crossed the river and attacked, just as the left and right balanced, it was natural to take advantage of one side. But if it was true that our dynasty would go north as His Majesty said, we would not only take advantage of our dynasty, but we would not only not be able to take advantage of the more than 200,000 troops to go to the expedition, but also to the extreme compressed enemy army will counterattack wildly and lead the main force of the enemy to our dynasty. At that time, not only will we not be able to take advantage of it, but we will truly solve the danger of Wu Zheng."

Zhu Ma nodded with a slight understanding. Although she has become familiar with some political affairs over the years, she still has little understanding of military affairs. Now there is no suitable person on the left, so she can only win the trust of Zhang Tongchang.

At least, at this time, Zhu Mai felt that Zhang Tongchang's words made sense.

Zhu Mai thought for a while and said, "But if Liao Zhongping crossed the river and led the Zuoying to attack in the northwest direction, then our dynasty will not be able to recover Chuzhou... How should we deal with it?"

This question was quite accurate, and Zhang Tongchang replied: "Your Majesty is too worried... Liao Zhongping is Wu Zheng's person, so there is no doubt about this. According to common sense, since he has chosen to betray Your Majesty and the court, he should indeed attack in the northwest direction to win the great contribution of rescuing Wu Zheng.

But Liao Zhongping is a veteran on the battlefield after all, he should be aware of the situation on the battlefield in Jiangbei. The enemy encircled Taizhou on three sides and the Wusong guards, so naturally it is not easy for Zuoying to break through. In addition, Huai'an has been surrounded for half a month, and Zuoying lacks cavalry. At this time, even if the road is smooth, it will take five or six days, and the enemy will be blocked on the way... It is too late to reach Huai'an without ten or eight days. It is impossible to rescue Wu Zheng in time. Therefore, I think that Liao Zhongping can only help Wu Zheng by adopting the strategy of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao, attacking Liuhe and pointing at Chuzhou."

Zhu Mom nodded repeatedly, and I have to say that Zhang Tongchang is indeed capable, and she was really convinced.

"Then... the enemy from Xuzhou is in Fengyang Prefecture at this time. Once the Zuoying attacks Chuzhou, wouldn't it be counterattacked by the enemy? I think it is necessary to send the Right Camp or the Duke of Wei's Jianyang Guard to support it."

"No!" Zhang Tongchang opposed, "Your Majesty, Liao Zhongping has rebelled, Your Majesty and I know it well. In other words, his left camp is under Wu Zheng's command. I set this strategy to weaken Wu Zheng's military strength. If Your Majesty sends reinforcements to reinforce, wouldn't it be in the opposite direction to the target?"

Zhu Mai was stunned, silent for a while, and sighed: "It was born from the same root, so why are we too anxious to fight each other?"

"Your Majesty, I only know... the Han and the thieves are incompatible!"

At this time, an emergency military report was submitted, "Duke of Wei vowed to the scene in Dangtu yesterday, and Jianyang Wei crossed the river and marched northward to attack Hezhou first."

This news shocked the king and his ministers.

The two looked at each other. Duke Wei was also a member of Wu Zheng?

Isn't this ridiculous?

What is Xia Wanchun's picture?

He supported Wu Zheng, and he was already a Duke of the State. Could it be that Wu Zheng could still be named Xia Wanchun as king?

Zhu Mai opened her mouth wide and sighed, "If God is so willing, why should I force you?"

It turns out that in this huge Yixing Dynasty, the three major military forces, were actually two fans of Wu Zheng.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ma couldn't help but feel relieved. Yes, if so, why are you fighting for?

But Zhu Mai also hated Wu Zhenglai. During these four or five years, he had secretly connected to this point. As Zhang Tongchang said, he had long been disobedient?!

Zhang Tongchang was indeed shocked. More than 200,000 troops of Yixing Dynasty, 60% of them returned to Wu Zheng overnight. Wouldn't the Yixing Dynasty become a joke?

The Right Battalion has the most powerful troops, and it is stationed in the capital city with a population of 100,000 people, but the problem is that it cannot be stopped.

Once the right camp is sent out of Beijing to intercept it, how will the defense of the capital respond?

After all, Jiangbei is in a big battle. Who can guarantee that the 80,000 or 90,000 enemy troops from Xuzhou will be in a state of mind and cross the river to invade Yingtian Prefecture?

Zhang Tongchang was in a dilemma. If it were only Liao Zhongping's troops, it would still make the court pretend to be deaf and dumb, disagree or object, and wait for the end of the war before dealing with it. However, once Jianyang Wei was dispatched, it would definitely not be possible to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Xia Wanchun was Duke of Wei, which was equivalent to a prince in one side. Once the attack in two directions, no one would believe it even if the court denied it.

The king and his minister looked at each other, Zhang Tongchang held his eyes for a long time and smiled bitterly: "The current plan is that I am afraid that I can only make mistakes... Please issue an edict immediately to launch a national war, and order the Duke of Wei to lead Jianyang Wei, Liao Zhongping to lead the Zuoying... immediately cross the river and attack north... to rescue the King of Wu."

Zhang Tongchang really didn't want to say the last four words, but there was no way. This was the only fig leaf that could make the emperor and the court fall into a sloppy situation.

Moreover, the edict was written quickly, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing to issue an edict after the two armies landed in Jiangbei and had already started the war.

Zhu Niu waved his hand a little discouraged and said, "You have to deal with this matter with all your power... Get out."
