Yang Hongfa did not think he could stand the pace of the Northern Expedition Army. Luzhou was full of plans and had only a well-trained army of only 30,000, which was scattered throughout Luzhou. Lou Xiang, the general who commanded these troops, had never fought a real war in his life. Thinking about Wang Qiang and Hu Zehua who swept through Xiangzhou, who were not a general who crawled out of the dead. When he thought of this, Yang Hongfa had the idea of ​​leaving.

He didn't want to end up like Peng Zhongjun. But when he thought about it carefully, where could he go? Luzhou is his foundation!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but hate Yang Qing. The family took great pains to send him to Beidi and won the top scorer in one fell swoop. But this guy has no news since then. Even his biological parents, a younger brother and a younger sister disappeared without a trace before a night. Without thinking, they all went to Beidi. The biggest possibility is that Yang Qing confessed his life experience to the other party. With Yang Qing's ability, it is impossible for him to have this ability. Only the official Fangsi has this ability...

Taking advantage of this introduction, surrender to the Northland? Just as this idea flashed, Yang Hongfa shook his head repeatedly. Although Luzhou is now critical, the battle between the North and the South is far from the time to decide the outcome. At this time, the bet is completely put aside, and it is very likely that nothing will be left in the end. Moreover, from the moment, the Southern Dynasty has the upper hand. If Park Demeng is defeated in one fell swoop, the Southern Dynasty can concentrate its huge manpower and material resources to compete with the Northland.

If this situation occurs, the victory of the North will be extremely small.

But if you resist hard, the Yang family will face a catastrophe.

There was a cliff on one side and a fire pit on the other side. Where did you go? Yang Hongfa almost broke all his beards.

"Sir!" The town general Lou Xiang led a man into Yang Hongfa's study room.

"General Lou, how about the army being mobilized?" Yang Hongfa asked anxiously. Although the Luzhou Town Army was unable to fight against the Northern Army, there were tens of thousands of people. If you gathered around, you would always feel at ease.

"The army is being mobilized. It will take about half a month before we can gather 30,000 troops around Luzhou City." Lou Xiang said.

"That's good, that's good!" Yang Hongfa breathed a sigh of relief, and then noticed the person who followed Lou Xiang in. The man was wearing a green shirt and a scarf, about his early fifties, and looked like a scholar who fell in love with his younger brother.

"Who is this?" Lou Xiang asked.

"Sir, this is a fellow townsman of Lou Xiang, named Tu Zhuang, and is a talented person in his heart!" Lou Xiang smiled, "Mr. Tu has been wronged in our mansion in recent years. Now, Luzhou is in danger. Lou dares not hide him in the mansion again. He invites him again and again to invite Mr. Tu out again."

"Tuzhuang?" Yang Hongfa vaguely remembered this person, but he couldn't remember it anymore." How dare you ask where the sir was before?"

Tuzhuang smiled and took a step forward, "I dare not humiliate the Lord Qingting, but Tu had assisted the Sima family in Tanzhou before."

"Sima family?" Yang Hongfa's brow shrank slightly. Sima family was a taboo in the Dayue Dynasty. This person surrendered to the Mongolian tribe and was the highest-level general who surrendered to the Mongolian tribe at that time. It was a terrible thing for thousands of years! Hearing that this person in Tuzhuang was a counselor of the Sima family back then, he was already unhappy.

"Sir, Mr. Tu assisted Sima Rui and helped Sima Rui seize control of Lucheng in one fell swoop. Two years ago, a border army of more than 20,000 people was built in Lucheng. However, Sima Rui's status gradually increased, so he regarded Mr. Tu as if nothing had happened. Later, Sima surrendered to the Mongolians. Because of this, Mr. Tu disdained to serve Sima again and quietly left. However, because of this past that had assisted Sima, no one dared to use it, so he could only come to the last general and live there for many years."

"This is also General Lou's thoughts on the friendship between his hometown, so that I can have a bite of food!" Tu Zhuang said with a smile.

"Why did Mr. Tu leave Sima back then?" Yang Hongfa stretched his heart slightly, pointed to the stool in front of him, and said, "Sit!"

"Thank you, sir!" Tu Zhuang bowed and thanked him and sat down with Lou Xiang. "It's no problem to assist Sima's family and do a career, but if I ask me to assist them as gangsters, Tu couldn't bend down. But Sima Ren decided to do his best, so the villain could only hide."

"Mr. Tu, don't say this nonsense anymore. You should talk about the current problem for Lord Yang, right? What should we do?" Lou Xiang, who was on the side, said hurriedly.

Yang Hongfa looked at Lou Xiang and felt a little moved. Lou Xiang was not a big deal. He admired this slaughter village so much, which showed that this guy was still a bit talented.

"Why can you teach me the current situation?"

Looking at Yang Hongfa, Tuzhuang smiled slightly, "The magistrate must be very confused now, should he defect to the Northern Dynasties or fight to the death with him!"

Yang Hongfa's face changed slightly, and he was just thinking about it. He was criticized by someone and was too embarrassed. Even though he was on the same rope as Lou Xiang, he said it bluntly, which made people extremely unhappy, and his face was filled with anger.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. The Northern Army is powerful. It only took a month to sweep Xiangzhou. The troops in Luzhou are still inferior to those in Xiangzhou. How can you not be afraid? This is a common sense!" Tu Zhuang said.

"According to this, we will surrender to Luo?" Yang Hongfa said with a serious face.

"No!" Tu Zhuang shook his head repeatedly, "It is too early to talk about victory or defeat at this time. The battle between the north and the south depends on whether the General Congliang can defeat Park Demeng in one fell swoop. If Park Demeng sticks to Congliang, Su Can and others, then Yun Zhao will win. If Congliang wins quickly, then Yun Zhao will be very likely to lose."

"This is nonsense, I want to know now, who will win?"

"Master, this is a bet. Before the dice cup is opened, no one knows whether it is big or small. We can only choose the most likely one."

"Then who do you think we want to choose?"

"If the sir asked me, I would choose the Southern Dynasty!" Tuzhuang said word by word.

"If you choose the Southern Dynasty and Yunzhao's army will come, our Luzhou will be no longer protected first!" Yang Hongfa said.

"Not necessarily!"

"Why do you say that? Just now, the gentleman said that our Luzhou army is harder than the Xiangzhou town army, and even the Xiangzhou town army is defeated by the Northern Army. What can we resist?"

"There are several reasons for the defeat in Xiangzhou. First, the army of Xiangzhou was taken away from the army of Xiangzhou to guard the Dayang Mountain of Xiaogu Mountain, making Xiangzhou empty. Secondly, when Peng Zhongjun learned that the opponent attacked Xiangzhou, he hurriedly led his army back to take advantage of the enemy. Especially his own death, the attack on Xiangzhou was a huge blow. The reason why the army of the Northern Army easily captured Xiangzhou was because of these two points. The army of Luzhou was defeated by Xiangzhou, but it was a victory because it had a long judgment on the direction of the Northern Army. It could concentrate its forces to defend important towns. The Northern Army of the Northern Army was invincible in field battles, but the attack was not necessarily very powerful." Tuzhuang said slowly.

Yang Hongfa made a god-like slight dick," Mr. continued.

"In the battle with Yun Zhao, the first priority of the Lord is to drag it down. No matter how Yun Zhao fights in Luzhou, we can only stick to a few important towns, never divide the army, and never leave the city. We wait for Congliang to fight with Park Deming. Moreover, Luzhou is not without reinforcements."

"Where did the reinforcements come from?"

"The first is Sun Chuanliang's troops. Yun Zhao attacked Luzhou. If he succeeded, he would have no meaning to station Dayang Mountain. Therefore, returning to Luzhou was his only choice. Although Sun Chuanliang suffered a lot in Xiaogushan, he still had 20,000 to 30,000 people in his hands, including the Xiangzhou army left to him by Peng Zhongjun."

"Is it just him?"

"Of course, there is also the order issued by the imperial court to allow the aristocrats from all over the country to form private troops, right?"

"received!"

"Whether it is Luzhou or adjacent Tongzhou and other places, these private troops may come to support it. It depends on how the adults do it, and whether the court can make up their minds. If Luzhou is lost, Yun Zhao may be able to attack Shanzhou, but it may also directly attack Tongzhou. Personally, I think Yun Zhao will attack Tongzhou, and the Tongzhou Town Army will not move, but these private troops can come. If Luzhou is defended, Tongzhou will be fine. I think those people in Tongzhou will not see this. If Yun Zhao attacks, will their family business still be preserved? Let the war burn in Luzhou, maybe these people will be willing to invest their troops and financial resources."

Yang Hongfa took a deep breath. Luzhou became a battlefield and his family business was gone.

"And even in Luzhou, Lord Yang, you have a lot of rules to do." Tuzhuang said slowly.

"What's the chapter?"

"I wonder if you have noticed that you are still paying attention to the attack on Xiangzhou and the Northern Army that is preparing to attack Luzhou, lacking a very important force!"

Lou Xiang's eyes flashed, "You're talking about Mengqi!"

"Yes, Mengqi, why did Yun Zhao only place Mengqi in Jingzhou as a restraining force, but not put them into Xiangzhou and Luzhou battlefields?" Tu Zhuang's eyes flashed.

"You mean?" Yang Hongfa pondered.

"Yun Zhao was a little worried. He was afraid that the entry of Mengqi will cause the emotional rebound of Yue people!" Tu Zhuang smiled. "The people's hearts are available! Sir, Yun Zhao did not bring Mengqi here, but it does not mean that the Meng people did not exist in the Northern Expedition Army. Yun Zhao used to be a hero against Meng. Now isn't it the culprit of colluding with foreign races and poisoning Yue people?"
