    The army of Qi State marched from Longguan and had a smooth journey.  When the army led by Wang Qi passed Long County, news came back from the Intelligence Bureau that the armies led by Zhu Yuanshan and Fei Xiuhu had each arrived at the headquarters of Hanyang County to join forces in Ji County. Moreover, Ji County had no resistance at all and chose directly.  surrender.

    Wang Qi was a little surprised when he heard the news.

    Ji County is the administrative seat of Hanyang County.

    The power of Hanyang County is concentrated in Ji County.  Now that two armies from Qi State have arrived, there is no Cao Xuan's troops to resist in Ji County. This situation is a bit surprising and makes people feel weird.

    Wang Qi immediately called Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng to discuss the situation. He told the situation on the front line and asked: "Cao Xuan directly withdrew from Ji County and even abandoned Hanyang County. What do you think this is?"

    After thinking about it, Zhuge Feng said: "Your Majesty, I think that maybe Cao Xuan knew that he was outmatched and was preparing to retreat to Weiwu County, and then return to Weiwu County to resist with all his strength. Our artillery bombardment has scared Cao Xuan out of fear. At least from the front.  Cao Xuan no longer has the courage to fight."

    Zhou Zishan said: "Your Majesty, I have different opinions."

    Wang Qidao: "What do you think is going on?"

    Zhou Zishan explained: "Reporting to your Majesty, I believe that Cao Xuan's retreat is not to retreat to Weiwu County to resist, but that he is retreating again and again, directly exiting Liangzhou, and preparing to go to the Western Regions to avoid our Qi State's pursuing troops."

    Zhuge Feng frowned.

    ? Somewhat surprised.

    He didn¡¯t expect that the conclusion Zhou Zishan came to was so shocking.

    Wang Qi asked: "What's the reason?"

    Zhou Zishan replied: "Actually, my consideration is very simple. How big is the difference between Cao Xuan's resistance in Ji County and his resistance in Weiwu County? In essence, there is actually no difference."

    "Because Cao Xuan is in Ji County and cannot stop our Qi army. Even if he retreats to Weiwu County, he cannot stop it. And this retreat will allow our army to drive straight in. Hanyang County and Wudu County  , Beidi County fell one after another, and even the subsequent counties in Liangzhou were unable to defend themselves."

    "From this perspective, there is no benefit in retreating to Weiwu County. It will definitely lead to death. In this case, there is no need to retreat. Anyone with some eyesight knows that it is best to guard Ji County and continue to block attacks.  choice. By blocking attacks one after another, we will continue to consume Qi's power and lure the enemy deeper."

    "At this time, it is not a wise arrangement to allow various places to surrender and submit to Qi."

    "To sum up, I judge that Cao Xuan's retreat is to the Western Regions, and he plans to take shelter directly in the Western Regions. After all, the situation in the Western Regions is very complicated. On the one hand, it is difficult to communicate with our Qi State in language. On the other hand, the Western Regions are more bitter and cold.  , attacking the Western Region is not something that can be accomplished easily."

    Zhou Zishan said: "So Cao Xuan's retreat to the Western Regions is basically to take advantage of the geographical advantages of the Western Regions to resist our army's attack."

    After hearing this, Wang Qi thought about it and nodded.

    Zhou Zishan¡¯s analysis takes a different approach.

    But it makes quite a bit of sense.

    He said solemnly: "According to Zishan's analysis, our sweep of Liangzhou will not be a big problem. However, if Cao Xuan retreats again and again, at least our next annihilation of Cao Xuan will not be easy, and it will delay for a long time. Especially Xianbei,  The Japanese, Xiongnu, etc. are provoking provocations again, and we cannot always focus on Cao Xuan. Otherwise, there will be problems with the Xiongnu in the north, Xianbei in the northeast, and the Japanese in the southeast."

    Zhou Zishan said: "So considering the surrounding situation, it involves an arrangement for Cao Xuan. I believe that it is not easy to completely wipe out Cao Xuan who has retreated to the Western Regions at the moment."

    "The Western Region has a vast territory and a special geographical location, and the climate is difficult to adapt to in a short period of time. I believe that after we capture Liangzhou this time, we will no longer attack Cao Xuan, but instead first destroy the Xiongnu, Xianbei, etc. We will deal with surrounding issues  Solve it and deal with Cao Xuan again."

    "After all, Cao Xuan fled to the Western Regions and does not pose much of a threat to our Qi State for the time being. The biggest threats now are Xianbei, Japan, etc., as well as the Haixi Empire hiding behind them."

    Wang Qi did not express his position for the time being. He looked at Zhuge Feng and said, "Brother, what do you think?"

    Zhuge Feng said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Minister Zhou's suggestion. The biggest threat to Qi today is the threat of the Haixi Empire. After the problem of the Haixi Empire is solved, Cao Xuan will be completely destroyed. The war cannot be completed overnight.  of."

    Wang Qidao: "Since everyone thinks so, let's capture Liangzhou first, capture the entire Liangzhou line, and then garrison troops at the border. Next, we will go all out to sweep awaySwing around.  "

    "Your Majesty is wise!"

    Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan answered in unison.

    Both of them agree that the foundation of Qi State is getting stronger and more stable.  On this occasion, it is natural to maximize the stability of the local area and steadily expand the country of Qi.

    Wang Qidao: "Now that the general strategy has been set, it can be predicted that Cao Xuan is very likely to withdraw his troops. What can we do now?"

    Zhou Zishan said: "Let the people placed by the Intelligence Bureau in Weiwu County inform Li Hongzhong to gather all the people who belong to us and overthrow Cao Xuan's people in Weiwu County. We can even try to get rid of Cao Xuan before he retreats to Weiwu County.  Take control of the county. Now we are also rushing forward with all our strength. As long as Li Hongzhong delays in Weiwu County for two or three days, Cao Xuan will not be able to take Weiwu County. Even if he evacuates, it will be a hasty evacuation. Too many supplies will be lost, which is even more difficult.  A serious problem. In short, try to weaken Cao Xuan as much as possible."

    Zhuge Feng said: "What Minister Zhou said is true, but what I am worried about now is whether our news can be delivered in time. After all, Cao Xuan is retreating with all his strength. Even according to the time calculation, Cao Xuan has not returned to Weiwu County. But  Since Cao Xuan is prepared and has arranged the evacuation of people in advance, it will not be easy for Li Hongzhong to seize Weiwu County. Now, we can only do our best to obey fate."

    Wang Qi nodded, and immediately called Chen Qinglong over, told the cause and effect involving Weiwu County, and ordered: "Chen Qinglong, arrange for someone to inform Li Hongzhong about Cao Xuan's situation, and let him organize his forces to seize Weiwu County for the time being.  Hold Cao Xuan back. My army will arrive soon."

    "According to the order!"

    Chen Qinglong agreed and hurried to make arrangements.

    Time is running out, Chen Qinglong must hurry up, otherwise it will be too late when the people from the Intelligence Bureau send the message.

    Wang Qi decided on his strategy and continued on his way with his army without wasting any more time.  When Wang Qi led his troops to Ji County, the armies led by Zhu Yuanshan and Fei Xiuhu had already continued to advance westward.

    The army of Qi State moved steadily towards the direction of Weiwu County.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
