As soon as Li Jin heard the tone of Shao Fang's question, he immediately realized that the king did not accept his opinion. He rolled his eyes, changed the topic, and said worriedly: "It is indeed difficult for the reserve army to resist the direct army, and Sishui County is where our army has entered."

The important logistics area of ​​Jade Kingdom must not be lost. To be on the safe side, should your Majesty consider recalling the army fighting in Jade Kingdom?"

Shao Fang did not answer, frowned, and remained silent. He withdrew the Mo army fighting in the Jade Kingdom. Shao Fang had really considered this strategy, but felt that it was a pity that if he withdrew his army at this time, what he had previously achieved in the Jade Kingdom would be lost.

How can one be content with a series of victories being in vain and all one's efforts being in vain?

After a long time, he murmured and sighed: "Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?"

Guo Hui's mind changed, and he raised his hand and said: "Why don't your Majesty ask for help from the Sichuan and Zhen Kingdoms? As long as the Sichuan and Zhen Kingdoms are willing to send troops to help our country, not to mention it will be easy to withstand the Feng Army's southern invasion, and we can also take advantage of the situation to regain our lost territory, killing two birds with one stone!"

Oh? Shao Fang's eyes lit up and he asked: "Mr. Guo, has our country been at war with Sichuan and Zhen countries before? Are the two countries willing to send troops to help our country this time?"

Guo Hui smiled and said: "Yes, the relationship between our country and Sichuan and Zhen is not good, but these two countries hate Feng even more. As the saying goes, the enemy of our enemy is our friend, even if Sichuan and Zhen don't want to help our country

, but in order to suppress the Feng Kingdom, I think they will also send troops!"

"Yes!" Shao Fang nodded his head and praised: "What Mr. Guo said makes sense, okay, let's do what Mr. Guo wants!"

Now Shao Fang is also in urgent need of medical treatment. He really can't think of a strategy to deal with the Feng Army's southern invasion, and he doesn't want to draw back the Central Army of Mo State that has gone deep into the Jade State. He has no choice but to adopt Guo Hui's advice and send troops to Sichuan State separately.

He Zhenguo asked for help.

In fact, Guo Hui's analysis is correct. The two countries of Sichuan and Zhen are dissatisfied with the Mo country, but they have not reached the level of hostility. After all, their primary enemy is the Feng country. In the past, the two countries could ignore the Mo country and the An country to jointly attack the Jade country.

, which is exactly the reason.

However, Guo Hui ignored a very important point. The current alliance between Sichuan and Zhen is on the verge of collapse. The root cause still lies in the disastrous defeat of the Fafeng Alliance last time. When Fafeng failed, the militaries of the two countries shirk responsibility from each other.

, the Sichuan Army complained that the Zhen Army did not obey the command and insisted on going its own way, while the Zhen Army complained that the Sichuan Army was as timid as a mouse and did not dare to fight a hard battle with Feng Ren. Each had their own reasons and excuses, and they all wanted to blame the failure.

On the other side, as a result, the contradiction between the two countries took root.

If the two countries could be honest with each other and talk about all the issues openly, the conflicts might still be alleviated. However, after the failure of the war, both countries avoided mentioning the war. The conflicts and complaints between the two countries became deeper and deeper.

The country's military is almost incompatible with water and fire.

At this time, Shao Fang sent two envoys to the Sichuan and Zhen kingdoms respectively to ask for help. This was undoubtedly a disservice to both sides.

The first people to object to sending troops for reinforcements were the military generals of the two countries. The reason for the opposition of the Zhenguo generals was simple. They were ashamed to be associated with the Sichuan army. Since Moguo also asked Sichuan for help, it would be better for Sichuan to send troops.

The generals of the Sichuan Army also had the same idea. Since Mo State also asked Zhen State for help, let Zhen State send troops to resist Feng State first. In addition, in this way, the military strength of both countries could be consumed at the same time, and their own side could watch the fire from the other side.

Enjoy the benefits of being a fisherman.

The attitudes of the military generals of the two countries directly affected the attitudes of the monarchs of the two countries. Regarding Mozambique's request for reinforcements, the monarchs of both countries were lukewarm. They did not veto the sending of troops for reinforcements, nor did they agree to send troops. Instead, they delayed.

They are all waiting for the other side to send troops first.

If Shao Fang had only sent one envoy, whether to Sichuan or Zhen, the result might not be what it is now.

Of course, there are no ifs in this world. Although Guo Hui is not mediocre, his overall view is far from being able to understand the overall situation. No matter how accurate the previous analysis is, the deviation in the last step will only make his strategy fatal.

Take the next step.

The inaction of the Sichuan and Zhen Kingdoms prevented the Mo Kingdom's rescue effort. After receiving the reply, Shao Fang became furious again in the court, angrily pointing at Guo Hui's nose and cursing.

Guo Hui was frightened and gave Shao Fang another idea. He asked for help again, but this time the person asking for help was An Guo.

The An army is far less brave and good at fighting than the Sichuan army and the Zhen army, but fortunately it has a large number of troops and well-equipped equipment. The most important point is that the two countries are currently allies and have jointly sent troops to attack the Jade state. Now that the Mo country is in trouble, An Guo has no reason not to help.

.

Shao Fang thought about it carefully and felt that what Guo Hui said was not unreasonable. He finally adopted his opinion and sent people to rescue Anguo.

It is true that the An army has many troops and good equipment, but its combat power is poor and it lacks actual combat experience. These are also facts. Shao Fang despises the An army from the bottom of his heart. If there are other ways, he will not ask An Guo to do it.

Send troops to reinforce.

In the eyes of Shao Fang and the Mo court, it was a sure thing to send reinforcements from An Guo. However, no one expected that An Guo would be more decisive than Sichuan and Zhen. King An Yueze made it clear on the spot that he would not send troops to Mo Guo alone.

Fight against the wind army.

It's not that Yue Ze doesn't value the alliance between An Guo and Mo Guo, but he is really scared of being beaten by the Feng Army. In the last battle against Feng, the 200,000 An Army led by Li De had not yet arrived at Feng Guo.

On the mainland, they were severely defeated by the Feng Army with less than 100,000 soldiers. If the Feng Army had not been merciful, the 200,000 An Army, including Li De, would have been killed in a foreign land.

After this battle, the atmosphere in Anguo changed, and the seeds of fear were planted deep in people's hearts. After such a long time, the Anjun also trained hard and their combat power improved a lot, but they had the courage and jade.

In the national war, I still don't have the courage to compete with the Feng army.

Furthermore, in the last battle, the An army showed mercy to the Feng army. Even if Yue Ze was willing to send troops to fight the Feng army, the An army generals below would strongly oppose it.

Mo's request for help from Sichuan and Zhen was fruitless, and then it asked Anguo for help but was rejected. This shocked Shao Fang and the Mo court. In addition to being angry, people were thinking hard about how to deal with it.

From the current point of view, it is impossible for the Mo Kingdom to get reinforcements from the outside world. It can only rely on its own strength to resist the Feng Kingdom. However, in the continuous battles, the central army and the local army of the Mo army also suffered heavy losses. The only way to

The only way to reverse the situation seems to be to withdraw the main army fighting in the Jade Kingdom.

During this period, Mo State continuously asked Sichuan, Zhen, and An for help, and the delay was not short. However, the Feng Army, which had already captured Anqiu County, did not continue to go south and invade Sishui County, because the internal opinions of the Feng Army were inconsistent.

They have not yet been unified and are arguing over whether to consolidate their power first or continue to move south.

Of course, Tang Yin hoped to continue going south, attack Sishui County, and then trap the main army of the Mo Kingdom in the Jade Kingdom. In this way, he would have the opportunity to go straight to Zhenjiang and wipe out the Mo Kingdom court in one fell swoop. Tang Yin had no intention of annexing the Mo Kingdom all at once.

Mo Country, but the success of the war made his ambitions rapidly expand, and the current situation does have the possibility of a quick resolution.

However, Qiu Zhen held the opposite opinion and believed that his side should not go south again, but should first consolidate its power in the counties and counties it occupied, so that Shao Jun could set up a banner to claim the throne as soon as possible and form a rivalry with Shao Fang. Qiu Zhen was by no means timid.

He is afraid of trouble. He has his own concerns. In his opinion, fighting to this level is the limit. If it goes further, it will inevitably attract the participation of other forces. What about the two powerful countries of Chuan Zhen who regard Feng State as a thorn in their side?

Maybe they will just watch Feng Country annex Mo Country and ignore Feng Country's rise to power? At the critical moment, these two countries will definitely take action. By then, we will have strong enemies in front of us and unstable rear. Once defeated, we will not even have a base to regroup.

No, they can only retreat thousands of miles and return to the Feng Kingdom in defeat. All the counties and counties they have worked so hard to conquer will be reduced to nothing.

The views of Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen basically represent the two major views within the Feng Army. One side believes that the current opportunity is rare and the country can be destroyed quickly; the other side believes that the time is not yet ripe and it is most practical to consolidate the current fruits of victory. Supporting Tang Yin is Cai

Gui Gui, and Guo Jue who supported Qiu Zhen.

The matter was so important that the internal opinions could not be unified. Tang Yin did not dare to take the next step easily, and the plan to attack Sishui County was temporarily postponed.

Just when disagreements arose within the Feng Army, and they were arguing over whether to attack or defend, Tianyan and Diwang's spies in Zhenjiang sent back important news - Mo Guo's request for help failed.

This news was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the main war faction headed by Tang Yin. Sichuan State, Zhen State and even An State decided to send troops to assist Mo State, which proved that Qiu Zhen's concerns were unnecessary. He did not go south to attack at this time.

How long are you waiting for?

Tang Yin summoned Qiu Zhen and others for urgent consultation. After listening to the information sent back from Zhenjiang, Qiu Zhen also frowned secretly. Unexpectedly, Sichuan, Zhen, and An all refused to send troops to assist Mo.

Cai Gui smiled and said: "Actually, it is understandable that the three countries refuse to assist Mozambique."

"Oh? What do you think Mr. Cai said?" Qiu Zhen asked.

"Anguo fought with our country. At that time, our army was defeated with less than half of the Anguo army. As far as I know, this is the first time Anguo has fought with a foreign country in a hundred years, but it suffered such a disastrous defeat in the first battle.

, will naturally leave a deep shadow on the An army. I dare to assert that until now, the An army is afraid of our army. The reason why Anguo refuses to reinforce Moguo is not because the alliance between the two countries is not strong, but because Anguo has deep feelings in his heart.

Afraid of fighting our army again."

Everyone nodded while listening, and Qiu Zhen couldn't help but said: "It makes sense."

Cai Gui continued: "As for the two countries of Sichuan and Zhen, it is easier to understand. The last time the two countries jointly attacked our country, it ended in failure. After the war, the two armies blamed each other to shirk their responsibilities, and the conflicts between the two became increasingly deepened.

Both countries are unwilling to send troops. Firstly, they do not want to join forces with each other to fight. Secondly, both countries hope that the other side will send troops first and let the other side fight our troops first. When both sides suffer losses, they can then send troops to clean up the mess and enjoy the gains."
