"Pass my secret order to Han Zhong. He will be in charge of the Shuozhou war for the time being. I have more important things to do. I will show up when I am needed."
Zhao Muyun thought about it and then gave the order.
"I obey your command!"
After Shen Qian left, silence returned to the inn.
Zhao Muyun stood alone in front of the map, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if he could penetrate time and space, seeing the bloodshed on the battlefield thousands of miles away, the intrigues in the court, and the countless ordinary people struggling in the war.
He faked his death and escaped with the intention of temporarily avoiding the spotlight and waiting for the right opportunity.
However, he did not expect that the opportunity would come so suddenly and quickly, pushing him to the forefront again and forcing him to control the chess game of the world in this invisible way.
"Minister Yang, I hope you won't let me down, and won't let the world down."
He whispered to himself, with a barely perceptible hint of fatigue in his tone, but more of a determination to take control of the world.
He knew that the plan he had put forward was a huge gamble.
What they were betting on was the courage and vision of Yang Dingguo and his companions, the execution capability of tens of thousands of troops, the arrogance and negligence of the Tartar Zuo Xianwang, and whether Shuozhou could hold out until the moment he appeared!
But he had no choice.
Only in this way can we pull this capsized Dayin ship out of the whirlpool and guide it in a direction where there may still be hope.
......
After crossing the river and entering the territory of Hedong Dao, Zhao Muyun suddenly felt like he was back home.
At the same time, he is like a patient hunter, waiting for the prey's reaction.
He closely followed the movements of all parties through the scattered intelligence brought by Shen Qian.
Cao Chunfeng indeed intimidated Li Chenghua's army and even executed a captain who expressed dissent on the grounds of delaying military affairs. The atmosphere in the army was extremely tense.
The army of King Jin continued to advance steadily, encroaching on the periphery of the capital. The proclamations he issued had a significant effect, with more and more counties expressing wait-and-see attitude or secretly supporting him.
The Tartar Zuo Xian King's siege of Youzhou became increasingly fierce, and the city of Youzhou was in imminent danger.
In the direction of Shuozhou, the Wuliangha once again organized troops to launch a fierce attack on Zhendi Fort.
However, he found that the city walls of Zhendi Fort were filled with straw men in armor and flags, without a single living person.
Shi Yong received an order from Han Zhong to withdraw overnight, but Shi Yong planned to defend the fort to the death for ten days.
Upon hearing the news, Bai Ruolan went to Zhendi Fort in person. Shi Yong was horrified and retreated to Jingbian Military Town.
But the situation in Xijing is not optimistic.
Li Jingang and Yang Yan led the main force to besiege Xijing without attacking, while Ma Zongliang and Li Hu cleared the periphery.
All the provincial capitals around Xijing were captured, and Xijing became an isolated island.
The armies of Tian Zun and Pei Lun did not dare to approach from the periphery.
They care more about taking sides than rebels.
Although the crown prince has ascended the throne, the Prince of Jin has the old emperor's blood edict, and the old emperor has not passed away, so it is still unknown who will win.
No matter which side you choose, it's a gamble.
Rather than not knowing how to choose, it is better to watch.
Both of them used the excuses of the Tartars in the north and the rebels in the south to avoid participating in the fight between the Prince of Jin and the Crown Prince...
One piece of intelligence after another makes the situation in the world seem even more chaotic.
