Zhuge Xingchen has been restless since the Western Prefecture seized Dongchuan and destroyed Zhu Mu's family. From March to September, Meng Yan had no movement at all and had no intention of moving westward. Instead, he had many conflicts with Hanzhong. Taking advantage of this.

In the gap, Zhuge was not idle, strengthened the defensive power everywhere, and enriched all the children in the clan who practiced Qimen Dunjia and above the Ksitigarbha realm into the army.

At the same time, he sent letters of help to Yuan Changli, Quan Hanliang and even Xiao Yu and others. Yuan Changli's reply was that he would work together to advance and retreat, and Quan Hanliang ignored it directly.

After receiving Zhuge Xingchen's letter, Xiao Yu laughed out loud on the spot. He could seek medical treatment in an emergency, but he really couldn't understand it when he asked for help from him, but he couldn't let him down. He symbolically sent someone to Xifu to make peace.

Any result is casual. The alliance between the North and East Mansions has not yet been settled, so how can I care about him?

On the eighth day of September, on the eve of Double Ninth Festival, Yuan Changli's messenger arrived in Chengdu and told Zhuge Xingchen firmly that as long as he could hold on until the New Year, he would definitely send troops to help him resolve the Chengdu crisis. After getting Yuan Changli's guarantee, Zhuge Xingchen actually believed it and announced that Chengdu was full of fanfare.

The food and supplies were abundant, enough for the 200,000 army to support for a year. He also told all soldiers that they could defeat Meng Yan as long as they persisted until the New Year, and at the same time they could also divide Dongchuan equally with the "Hua" Dynasty.

"Is Old Man Zhuge a possessed evil?" Meng Yan laughed so much that he almost broke down when he heard the news in the main hall of the Grand Governor's Office.

"Zhuge Xingchen has always been very ideal, but ideals are not whimsical. It is time for the prince to go out. I don't know, but I thought our Western Palace was afraid of him." Jin Qian's attitude was very clear when he attended the high-level military meeting for the first time.

"Mr. Zhuo, how are you preparing for food and grass?" Zhuo Bailing was already the Minister of the Western Prefecture, and Meng Yan couldn't call him casually on formal occasions.

Zhuo Bailing stood up and was as respectful as ever, with a calm expression on his face and said slowly: "Report to the prince, the Western Palace has been fighting for years, and the food and grass have been very nervous. Now we are leaving Xingtan, and the supply of food and grass has always been in absent. However, Jiangxia sent a batch of food and grass the day before yesterday.

, enough to support the army for three months."

Zhuo Bailing was in charge of government affairs, and he had to make it clear. Of course, he did not agree to go to Xichuan, but just hoped to solve the Xichuan issue as soon as possible. Chengdu is a city of Tianfu, and has always been a rich place, not inferior to the two Huaihe Rivers.

"Three months ago, everyone who said Mr. Zhuo understood what he said?" Meng Yan suddenly looked around the hall seriously and said.

"It is difficult to pacify Xichuan in three months. Although Zhuge Xingchen is a bit stupid, he is still the overlord after all. The original plan for the Western Expedition needs to be adjusted." Chen Zhiqing said with a little caution.

"Yu Chao's troops need to eliminate interference as soon as possible and go directly to Mianzhou. The key to taking down Mianzhou is to seize Jiangyou warehouse. If this is done, who will send to Jiange, Langzhong, Yilong, Bazhong and Dazhou?" Ye Bohuai rarely spoke seriously.

"Mr. Ye said it right. There are nearly 100,000 Zhuge clans on the front line from Jiange to Dazhou. The only loophole is that they divide their troops to defend. However, this journey is actually behind Mianzhou. If you are not careful, Yu Chao's troops may encounter a catastrophe." Meng

Yan had already thought of who had gone to war in his heart, and he didn't say it directly because he wanted to see everyone's attitude.

Everyone in the hall immediately fell into deep thought. The soldiers and horses of the Western Palace were already stretched, and it was difficult for various places to mobilize extra troops. Then everyone looked at Chen Zhiqing. He won the more with less, and only Chen Zhiqing had done the quick attack.

All eyes were staring at Chen Zhiqing, and Chen Zhiqing looked at Ye Bohuai. This guy pretended to be innocent again. He had just stabilized the central command, but now he was afraid he would go to the battlefield again. He smiled bitterly and said, "Prince, I'll take responsibility for this journey."

.”

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Qing!" Meng Yan smiled. Only by handing it over to Chen Zhiqing was relieved. Only Chen Zhiqing could do the entire Western Palace well.

"Prince, please transfer Tong Yan over. Ye Ling can draw 30,000 troops now." Zhuo Bailing directly recommended that Tong Yan is his old subordinate. As his chances of making achievements are getting fewer and fewer, Zhuo Bailing

I have to consider it for him.

Everyone thought it was OK. Thirty thousand people could create the momentum of 300,000 people in Chen Zhiqing's hands. This was recognized by the Western Palace, but Meng Yan did not agree immediately. Instead, he frowned and thought, "There are still six more people in Fuling.

Ten thousand people did not move. The Marquis of Wanzhou was stationed in Dongchuan for a long time and had been dealing with Xichuan for a long time. Let the Marquis of Wanzhou follow Qingshuai to go to war."

"Prince, if the troops in Fuling are drawn, the pressure on Yiling will be great. If the Yang family launches a large-scale attack, the gate of the North of Dongchuan will be empty." Jin Qian retorted directly.

"I have already considered Jin Shuai's concerns. I will take charge of Fuling in person." Meng Yan said calmly.

A sentence like a thunderous sound on the ground immediately made the hall explode. His Highness Yong wanted to sit in the north gate and relieve the worries of the generals. This would not happen at any time. Ye Bohuai said directly: "Your Highness is in command of the palace.

That’s fine, I’ll just go and go for a walk on the North Gate of Dongchuan.”

Meng Yan shook his head and said earnestly: "I understand your concerns. I am not impulsive when I go to Fuling. Marshal Ye wants to take charge of the Grand Governor's Office to support all the people. Marshal Qing goes to Jiange to fight against Jiange, and Marshal Jin wants to go south to command Yue.

In the war in the Internet, if others cannot pose a threat to Guanzhong, it is most suitable for me to go there. I can coordinate and command the Yiling garrison to restrain Hanzhong."

"Prince, there are 80,000 people in Yiling to restrain Hanzhong. As long as I am fast enough, I will have enough time to return to help." Chen Zhiqing still disagreed with Meng Yan's idea. It is not because of anything else that Xifu can reach this point today.

Meng Yan is the backbone. If something happens to him, the Western Palace will be over.

"Everyone, I'm just in charge, pulling my own tiger skin and pulling my own banner. The better you fight, the safer I will be. I still have the ability to protect myself. Nine thousand Bai Zewei plus Mingjiansi is not a problem to protect my life."

Yan stressed.

Seeing that Meng Yan could not resist, everyone had to agree, and Ye Bohuai also put away his temperament. This was not a joke. He always felt that there would be no big problem in conquering Xichuan. Unexpectedly, he was stuck by food and troops. The most troublesome thing was Yuan Changli.

This unstable factor will not be too easy in the Battle of Xichuan.

"Duke Zhuo, the recruitment matter should be as soon as possible. Speaking of which, our Western Prefecture has more than 600,000 soldiers. Except for the garrison of various prefectures and counties, the remaining troops of the governor's office have only 500,000 troops." Chen Zhiqing grabbed Zhuo Bailing and said.

Zhuo Bailing smiled bitterly with a embarrassed look on his face and said, "Ship Qing, you know the family of Xifu. Too many things have happened this year. The battle of Dongchuan and the conquest of Zhu Mu almost exhausted all their reserves, but fortunately, Jiangxia's side

Continuous supply and the support of Tushan Yiyuan can barely bet on three months of expenses. The recruitment is really powerless this year. After you go to war, I have to go to Changsha to beg for alms. I hope that Yu Gong can have some support for the sake of the prince.

.”

"The prince is too soft-hearted. When we withdrew from Xingtan, we should have taken away all the food, grass, gold and silver in the treasury, and we would not be so embarrassed now." Jin Qian's voice came from behind.

Zhuo Bailing frowned and stared at Jin Qian and said, "Ship Jin, don't talk about the right or wrong of the prince's decision, you should not comment like this. It is because of the soldiers and horses of the South Mansion.

If a person with a heart goes north and south to suffer, we will be the one who is unlucky."

After hearing this, Jin Qian's heart trembled and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhuo!" Jin Qian just entered the center and did not understand their decisions, but still had no foundation! He thoughts about Gu Qingfeng again.

"Ship Jin, being cautious in words and actions is the reason for those who are ministers. Although the Western Palace has never had many rules, everyone is used to speaking freely. The prince does not care about it. Do the Civil Affairs Institute and Mingjiansi not care about it?" Ye Bohuai

Walking at the front, his tone gradually became sterner.

Neither Chen Zhiqing nor Zhuo Bailing spoke anymore, and followed Ye Bohuai all the way, leaving only Jin Qian standing awkwardly on the steps. It was impossible to say that he was not angry. He also fought on the battlefield and made great contributions to the Western Prefecture.

He is also a dignified deputy general, but in the eyes of Ye Bohuai and others, he still can't stand it. Thinking about the battle between Wu and Ye Bohuai, you, were different from asking me?

"Why is Jin Shuai still here?" Nie Huan, who had just come out of the Shangshu Deck, saw Jin Qian standing alone in front of the steps and asked curiously.

When Jin Qian heard someone calling him, he looked back and saw that it was Nie Huan, and immediately bowed: "Did Shangshu Nie go to find Mr. Zhuo? Mr. Zhuo and Marshal Ye have just left."

"Yes, but it just happened that Ji Shuai was there. He just received a message from Jianchuan Bo, and Yueji Zhuge Xinglan took the initiative to attack." Nie Huan saw his unhappiness from Jin Qian's faint expression.

"Zhuge Xinglan dared to take the initiative to find trouble?" Jin Qian was a little surprised.

"Yes, Xinbao came from three days ago, but there is no follow-up Xinbao that it is estimated that Jianchuan Bo has strengthened his defense."

Jing Yi's defense is still fine. Thinking of this, Jin Qian had a plan in his mind. Although the key to conquering Xichuan lies in Chen Zhiqing and Yu Geng, it does not mean that he has no chance to make a contribution. As long as he wins Yueli and Yeling Tong Jing's troops, he may not be better than them.

If you fall behind, you don’t like me, so let’s see who can stand at the top of Chengdu City first.

"Shangshu Nie, I will no longer delay the war. If the war in Yueli goes well, please help me with your help. The war in Xichuan cannot be delayed, otherwise it will be too unfavorable to our Xifu." Jin Qian looked worried about the country.

A gesture of worrying about the people.

Looking at Jin Qian's back as he left, Nie Huan thought in his mind: "This guy is so active. He just entered the center and actually wanted to grab the merits. This is not a good signal. I want to send Quartz a letter to discuss it. Everything is right.

All the unfavorable factors of the prince must be eliminated, so what if it is the deputy governor?"

Everything that happened on the steps could not be hidden from Su Qing and Gu Qingfeng on the west corner of the palace. Their conversation was clearly told by the servants who were sweeping. Su Qing was lying on the rocking chair with all his backs on his back.

Looking at the embroidered flowers with a calm expression, Gu Qingfeng said, "Qingfeng, what's the point of saying this power is good? Even Marshal Ye cannot escape it. It's really ironic."

"When there is no meat to eat, everyone has to be warm. Now everyone has bows and arrows in their hands. Of course, who has beaten more and eats more." Gu Qingfeng didn't even raise his eyelids when he spoke, and the needle and thread in his hands were even more

It's like a butterfly wearing a flower.

"You are always so calm. If the army enters Chengdu, your trouble will come. Let me first say that I am the royal family affairs of Mingjiansi, and I will not express my opinion." Su Qing said something.

Gu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, then continued to embroider the flowers and said slowly: "It is best if no one speaks. If you say it, you will make mistakes. My identity is already embarrassing."

"You don't have to worry too much. As long as the prince is determined, no matter who says it is fake." Su Qing couldn't bear to see Gu Qingfeng in embarrassment and said comfortingly.

"I believe him," Gu Qingfeng paused for a moment and continued: "I am now in charge of the inner hall of Mingjiansi. After arriving in Chengdu, I will quit voluntarily. You have to find a suitable candidate."

"Please!" Su Qing was a little impatient.

"Okay, go and do things quickly. I will follow Qingshuai to the west tomorrow."
