Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger

Xuzhou, Guangling County, Dongtai County

Qin Zhao summoned the important generals of the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army to discuss matters.

As soon as Sun Congyi came in, he asked, "Brother Qin, are we going to fight?"

"You are smart, indeed." Qin Zhao did not deny it, "Didn't we tell Bai Xingzhi before? It will make King Jin feel the sincerity of our Pingzhou."

Guo Chong smiled and said, "After all, the King of Jin gave us a city for free. We don't give anything in return. I feel really bad." They are all conscientious people.

Yue Shu also said, "We have been on the expedition for such a long time, and we only made a move when we landed in Dongtai County and Jiangdu. The kids are all looking forward to stretching their muscles."

Sun Congyi smacked his mouth, these seniors were all full of fighting spirit.

Qin Zhao looked at the map and asked Guo Chong, "Mr. Guo, which place do you think is weakly defended among Yancheng, Xinghua, Gaoyou and Guangling County?"

These four places are adjacent to the territories they occupy, Dongtai County and Jiangdu, in the northwest.

Xie Wei is now leading troops stationed in four places to guard against them.

Guo Chong stroked his beard and said, "The imperial court will definitely focus on guarding Yancheng, Xinghua and Guangling County, especially Yancheng and Guangling County."

We focus on guarding against Yancheng because Yancheng is in the north. Xie Zhan will definitely be wary of their Pingzhou Expeditionary Force, which is heading north and south in both directions, trying to open up the path from Pingzhou to the East China Sea.

The imperial court will definitely try hard to prevent their expeditionary force from being connected to the headquarters.

The same is true for deploying heavy troops in Xinghua.

As for guarding Guangling County, it is because if they capture Guangling, they can better connect Dongtai County, Jiangdu and Qutao.

These three places have different meanings to the Pingzhou Expeditionary Army, and they are considered important military areas.

Only Gaoyou is not that significant to the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force?

After analyzing this, Sun Congyi pointed to the map and asked curiously, "Which county should we attack first this time?"

Qin Zhao and Guo Chong looked at each other and smiled, "That must be Gaoyou."

"Eat something soft first, and add some food and grass by the way."

Sun Congyi:......

He thought that Qin Sange said before that he didn't have to worry about food and grass because he had enough food and grass in his hands. So they had to grab the food and grass themselves?

Qin Zhao smiled and said nothing.

Yue Shu looked at the map, nodded and said, "The imperial court probably didn't expect that our Pingzhou Expeditionary Force would attack the useless Gaoyou despite being weak."

After occupying Gaoyou, they could go south or north.

Sun Congyi touched his smooth chin, "Xie Zhan, the commander-in-chief of the army, knows about Mr. Guo's existence. Is it possible that they did the opposite and deployed heavy troops in Gaoyou?"

"Then there's no other way but to do it forcefully."

The formulation of strategies relies on logic. If the imperial court really deployed heavy troops in Gaoyou as Sun Congyi said, it can only be said that they are crazy.

"By doing this, we hope to relieve Prince Jin from some pressure."

"That is required."

"General Yue, I leave it to you to attack Gaoyou this time." Qin Zhao said.

"What about our Sun family army?" Sun Congyi asked quickly.

Qin Zhao told him, "The top general responsible for garrisoning Yancheng, Xinghua, Gaoyou, and Guangling County is Xie Wei, who previously conquered the Southern Army. Your Sun Army should not be exposed prematurely. How about you just provide support from behind this time?" "

"Okay." Although Sun Congyi really wanted to lead the Sun Family Army to perform meritorious deeds, he knew the priorities. Currently, so many of the Sun Family Army's family members were still in Chang'an.

When he leads troops into battle, he will also wear an armor mask and try not to meet the court generals.

……

On this day, Ning Changge asked to see Lu Songli.

Ning Changge's expression was very bad, "Governor——"

"what happened?"

"I received a letter from my family." As he spoke, Ning Changge presented the letter from his family with both hands.

Jiang Yizhou stepped forward to take it and presented it to Lu Songli.

Jiang Yizhou is now the chief secretary of the Governor's Mansion, responsible for assisting Lu Songli in handling official affairs, which is equivalent to the position of secretary-general of the office in later generations.

Lu Songli took a while to read the letter. The letter mainly said that Ning Changge's grandmother was seriously ill and asked him to go back to the Southland.

"My elder is seriously ill and should really go back." Lu Songli said.

"Governor, not only have I received letters from home, but all our scholars in the Southland have received letters from home."

"Ok?"

Ning Changge looked solemn and said, "All the letters home are calling us to go back overtly or covertly." This made him have to suspect that there was a problem with the safety of his family.

"What did other people say?" Lu Songli asked.

"Most of them want to go back and see it."

"Okay, I understand. If any of you want to go back and take a look, do some statistics and report it, and I'll have someone arrange it."

Ning Changge was stunned, "Governor, are you willing to let us leave?"

To be honest, Ning Changge was surprised that the governor decided to let them leave without any hesitation or embarrassment. After all, this group of people has a small place in Pingzhou. If they all leave, it will also have an impact on Pingzhou.

Lu Songli laughed, "I said, we in Pingzhou can come and go freely. Besides, there is no such thing as a banquet in the world. But you must hand over the relevant work well."

"Don't worry, governor." At this time, Ning Changge was extremely grateful that Pingzhou was full of talents. At least there were a group of students from Liaodong Academy who could take over the work they were doing.

Ning Changge hesitated for a moment and asked, "Governor, if we return to the Southland and the court allows us to serve as officials..."

It's not that he thinks highly of himself, but that after more than a year of training in Pingzhou, he thinks that the level of local governance of this group of scholars is no worse than that of the county magistrates he has seen before.

"Then go out!" Lu Songli said, "In the future, no matter where you are, if you have the opportunity to use your talents to benefit the people, just do it. You just need to remember that what you do is beneficial to the Han people. ”

Ning Changge is like a seed cultivated in Pingzhou and spread throughout Dali.

"Governor——" Ning Changge saw in Lu Songli a superior person who had the world in mind.

For a moment, Ning Changge wanted to ask the governor if there was any way to get their family members out. But he soon gave up this impulse, because he knew it would be difficult. Nandi was Xie Zhan's base camp, and their Pingzhou forces were too far away, beyond their reach.

Ning Changge was very sad. He really learned a lot during his more than a year in Pingzhou. Pingzhou is a beautiful place where he has a group of like-minded friends.

Seeing his sadness, Lu Songli smiled and changed the subject, "You should go back by water, hurry up."

"But didn't the Caobang and our Pingzhou temporarily suspend cooperation?"

"Don't worry, it'll be no problem." Lu Songli felt that if Xie Zhan wanted to lure officials like Ning Changge back to the South, he would definitely not let this matter become a problem. You know how fast it is to travel by water.
