Chapter 169 Planning the World

In the afternoon, Nangong Yuxiu left from Dongdu, and Guo Tong also blushed and returned home. No one was paying attention to him when he got home, and lowered his head and entered his room.

As a veteran, Mrs. Guo knew when she saw her daughter walking, she knew that it was really done. What’s hateful is that King You was really too much. How could she do this in broad daylight? How could she be so impatient?

Guo Pengyun is not as careful as his wife. Since he agreed to surrender to Li Feng, he has been studying maps in the study and formulating strategies for Li Feng.

Although Guo Pengyun was facing his former boss and was a little awkward at the beginning, as the strategy progressed, all he had left was excitement.

Planning the world is the dream of many generals throughout the ages, and now this opportunity is his.

After Guo Pengyun finished his plan, he found Li Feng excitedly and reported his strategy in full.

Guo Pengyun's plan was to use the Dongdu as the foundation and go down in two ways, and to connect the Ji Canal along the way, attack Bianzhou and Xuzhou, seize Yangzhou, and then advance westward and attack the capital from the east.

The other route was dominated by cavalry, and they attacked Xuzhou on land, and Shouzhou surrounded it from the west of the capital.

The capital was besieged from east to west, and there was no way to north, so even if it was running, it could only run south.

Speaking of this, Guo Pengyun snorted disdainfully: "The people in the south forget their righteousness when they see profit. Li Yuan will definitely be captured and offered to him when he runs to the south."

Li Feng was very surprised. Guo Pengyun is still a regional black man?

"Why did my father-in-law have such a big prejudice against the Southern people?"

"Because I'm a southerner."

Li Feng: “…”

Guo Pengyun said hatefully: "My family is Xiaozong. After my father's death, the family property was divided up by the relatives of the main zodiac. My mother had no choice but to take me away from my hometown to Anding in Dongdu. I worked hard for half my life and made countless contributions. I was appreciated by Taiwei Zhao and made him the prefect of Dongdu..."

Speaking of this, Guo Pengyun's tone was a little low: "Prince, I know this is a bit inappropriate, but I hope that you can spare Taiwei Zhao's life by then, after all, he is my benefactor."

After Guo Pengyun finished speaking, he knew that it was not appropriate. He could not make a decision on such a thing. This time he was too rash.

But Li Feng answered quickly: "No problem. If possible, I really want to keep Taiwei Zhao. Although this man has always been against me, he has outstanding talent. My plan to conquer Dongdu was seen through.

If he hadn't expected that I had Turkic cavalry and the troops arranged in the Dongdu in advance, I wouldn't have today."

Guo Pengyun was overjoyed: "I thanked the prince for Taiwei Zhao."

"My father-in-law doesn't have to be too polite. There are still some problems with your strategy. Let's study it again."

While Li Feng and Guo Pengyun were studying the strategy, Guo Jianzhong finally left the capital with the first batch of recruited troops.

The court's conscription orders were still very efficient. Before leaving the capital, Guo Jianzhong recruited 30,000 troops. He expected that he would recruit 150,000 troops by the time he reached Dongdu.

In addition, the tens of thousands of troops left by Guo Pengyun and more than 200,000 troops were not a problem, even if you take down the Dongdu, it would be no problem to sweep the entire Henan Road.

Thinking of taking down Dongdu, capturing King You, His Majesty, and reaching the peak of his life, Guo Jianzhong couldn't help but become proud.

Although Guo Jianzhong fantasized, he was the Yulin Wei Tongzhi. The 30,000 troops were planned neatly. He let the ward out for ten miles and trained the recruits on the way.

Thirty thousand people were walking and stopping. When Shouzhou approached, a memorial came from the capital, and the people escorting Guo Pengyun were killed. Guo Pengyun was missing. Li Yuan suspected that Guo Pengyun was rescued by King You and asked Guo Pengyun to speed up the progress and rush to the Dongdu City to check Guo Pengyun's situation.

After reading the news, Guo Jianzhong's brows frowned into the character Sichuan. Guo Pengyun disappeared. This is not good news. He is the Dongdu Protector and is very familiar with Dongdu. If it weren't for the order from His Majesty, Guo Jianzhong would really want to keep him by his side as a counselor.

If such a person surrenders to Li Feng, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Guo Jianzhong was not slow to recruit soldiers on the road, and ordered the advance to speed up. He passed by the prefectures and counties along the way, and ordered the prefecture governors and county magistrates to recruit soldiers and horses, adopt money and grain, and send them to the Dongdu together.

The order was compulsory, and Guo Jianzhong left after he issued the order, which made the people of the prefectures and counties along the way suffer.

Guo Jianzhong personally selected the game, with the purpose of winning battles. He selected stronger people. Without his own choice, the heads of prefectures and counties had a bad idea.

In the name of recruitment, the chiefs of prefectures and counties forced one person from each family to send a person. If the clever one was stuffed money to them, they would be exempted from military service. Those who had no money had to be arrested obediently.

In this way, the tasks assigned by Guo Jianzhong have not been completed, and the chiefs of the prefectures and counties have made a lot of money.

On the other side, Guo Jianzhong quickly rushed to the bottom of the Dongdu City and met the generals of the Dongdu Guard.

The court and Guo Jianzhong didn't know that Guo Pengyun had defected to Li Feng, but they knew that, and many people had accepted Li Feng's recruitment. Therefore, when they saw Guo Jianzhong, their expressions were extremely unnatural.

Especially when Guo Jianzhong asked Guo Pengyun about whereabouts, they all bowed their heads and said nothing.

"I ask you, are you all deaf? Do you know where Guo Pengyun is?"

"We don't know when we return to the general. After Guo Dupu left, we stayed outside the city and fought with King You, but we really didn't know what was happening outside."

Guo Jianzhong said angrily: "A bunch of wastes, I don't know anything. What's the matter doing when the imperial court spends so much salary every year?"

The generals of Dongdu were scolded, but they were angry but not easy to vent, and they all felt a little angry in their hearts.

After Guo Jianzhong cursed, he took people to check the situation in Dongdu.

As the Daqian capital, Dongdu was also the place where the founding emperor of Daqian was the dragon-rise. The defense specifications of the city walls were no less than those of the capital, and they were even more than that of the capital. It was almost impossible to push them down by relying on troops.

Guo Jianzhong was very troubled after looking around. This kind of city wall cannot be defeated by a strong attack. He either sieges the city or like King You took Dongdu, and could only cooperate inside and outside.

The siege of the city is about resources. Dongdu occupies a lot of land and population, but he can't compete with the resources of the entire Daqian. However, Guo Jianzhong knew that His Majesty could not delay that long.

The best way is to cooperate with the inside and outside.

Guo Jianzhong thought for a while and said, "Your family members are all in the city. You will say that you will surrender to the city for the sake of your family. When I attack the city, you will take your servants and respond internally to me, cooperate with your outside and regain the Dongdu."

The generals of the Dongdu looked at me and looked at you. I thought to myself that His Majesty sent Guo Jianzhong over and really thought he had lived for a long time. Why was he so sure that they were 100% loyal to His Majesty?

"General, we will definitely be detained by King You after entering the city. How can we cooperate with you at that time?"
