After listening to Ruan Zhengyu's inquiry, all the civil and military officials in Annan Kingdom looked at each other. Now that they are almost at death's door, what else can they think of?

At this time, a young general came out of the squad and said to Ruan Zhengyu: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end. It is better to sink the cauldron and sink the boat to fight Jia Ke decisively. The last general will not be willing to be the vanguard."

Ruan Zhengyu looked up and saw that it was Ding Xiaochun's son Ding Hao. He now had a silver helmet and silver armor and was covered in white robes. At this time, he was serving as a mourner for Ding Xiaochun.

Ruan Zhengyu looked at the young general and said nothing. In fact, he did not agree with this method. There was a clear difference between the soldiers of Annan State and the soldiers of the Central Plains. If there was a decisive battle with them, there would be no hope of victory.

"Little general, please calm down for a moment and listen to what others have to say?"

Ruan Zhengyu said it politely, but he had actually rejected Ding Hao's proposal. Ding Hao had no choice but to return to class again.

Finally, Li Guangqing stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have three strategies for your Majesty to choose from: the upper, middle and lower levels."

As soon as Ruan Zhengyu heard that there were still three ways, his eyes immediately showed the light of hope.

"If you have anything to say, Prime Minister, just say it."

"Your Majesty, your best strategy is to leave some of your troops behind and fight to the death again, then return with the rest of the army to defeat the opponent's obstruction, and then return to the country to recuperate before a decisive battle with the enemy."

After Ruan Zhengyu listened, he felt that it was a safe approach, but he still listened to it now while the other two were making decisions.

"The old prime minister continued."

"The middle strategy is to negotiate peace with the other party immediately, cede territory and pay compensation for temporary peace, and wait until the country develops before making a decision."

After hearing this, Ruan Zhengyu would never agree to this method. If he were to implement it, all the morale he had gained from the southern and northern wars over the years would be dissipated.

Li Guangqing saw Ruan Zhengyu was silent, so he went on to say the third strategy, "The other way is the idea of ​​General Ding just now. Concentrate all your efforts to fight the enemy decisively, and there may be hope of victory."

After hearing these three methods, Ruan Zhengyu thought about it carefully. Although the second method was more moderate, it was actually the best for now. After all, although he suffered a temporary insult, it could calm the anger of the Central Plains Dynasty.

It allows you to recuperate and maybe there is hope for a comeback in the end.

Although the best strategy was to preserve his reputation, he became hostile to the Central Plains Dynasty from then on. The opponent's large number of people constantly harassed him, so he could only defend himself from time to time. In the end, he was afraid that he would be overwhelmed by the opponent before he had time to disperse.

Not to mention a bad move, Ruan Zhengyu now knows the difference between his own army and the Central Plains Dynasty's army. If he goes to fight them now, it is just an egg against a stone.

According to reason, Ruan Zhengyu should choose the middle strategy, but the pride in his heart made him ignore this.

Ruan Zhengyu finally glared and said to the people below, "Now that the matter has come to this, it is time to cut off the tail to survive. Li Yuren, I order you to command 30,000 elite troops to station here, and you must stop the Central Plains army for five days."

Li Yuren is the general of the left guard of the Annan Kingdom. When he heard Ruan Zhengyu's words, his veins immediately popped out. This was simply a job that would lead to death.

Li Yuren originally wanted to object, but as soon as he raised his head, he saw Ruan Zhengyu's blood-red eyes staring at him. The courage he had just raised immediately disappeared.

Now Li Yuren could only bite the bullet and take on this hard job.

Ruan Zhengyu convinced Li Yuren, and now he felt relieved. The most important thing now was to return with a strike and defeat the opponent's army blocking the road.

"The other generals immediately reorganized their troops and horses, set out quietly tonight, and immediately broke away from contact with the Central Plains army."

As soon as the other generals heard Ruan Zhengyu's instructions, they all bowed and saluted: "General, please obey the king's order."

After Ruan Zhengyu finished his instructions, he ordered the tents to be dispersed, and the generals went back to organize their troops, pack their luggage, and prepare to evacuate quietly at night.

Li Yuren returned to his tent alone. As the sky gradually darkened, his figure became silent in the darkness.

Now Li Yuren's heart was filled with all kinds of malice. One moment, someone told him that he should serve Li Ruan Zhengyu loyally for the country. Another moment, another person told him that since Ruan Zhengyu had abandoned him, he might as well just vote for Jia Ke.

, and also protect the lives of the whole family.

At this moment, Prime Minister Li Guangqing walked in.

As soon as Li Guangqing entered the big tent and looked at Li Yuren sitting silently in the dark tent, he knew that if he did not comfort the general this time, he might not be able to secure his retreat in the end.

"General Li, I'm here to see you."

Li Yuren raised his head in the darkness and looked at Li Guangqing, who was standing at the door of the station, and finally said with a sneer: "Why are you here, Prime Minister, if you don't pack your bags in the tent?"

Li Guangqing heard the resentment in Li Yuren's mouth, but what he could say at this time was that he could only walk over and pat Li Yuren on the shoulder.

"Xiao Li, we were good friends when your father was here. Don't blame His Majesty this time. In fact, those people in the big tent are just losers. Who else can take on such an important task besides you?"

Li Yuren said disdainfully: "If these people can save their lives, then I also want to be a loser."

"General Li, please don't talk nonsense. You still have your mother, wife and children at home. If you offend the king, you may implicate innocent people."

After Li Guangqing finished speaking, he sat down next to Li Guangren.

At this time, the war fell into dullness again.

After a while, Li Guangqing was the first to speak, "I have a beautiful horse, which I bought at a high price from the big eater. Now I have taken it outside the tent. I hope he can be of some use to you."

After Li Guangqing said this, he said nothing else, turned around and left Li Guangren's tent.

After Li Guangqing left for a while, Li Guangren stood up and came to the outside of the account.

I saw a tall horse tied to the hitching post outside the tent. This horse was ten feet long, with shining golden hair, bright eyes, full of alertness, and strong and powerful hind legs.

At this point, Li Guangren understood. His uncle gave him a life-saving gift.

This time, the 30,000 horses have been handed over here. When the final time comes, I'm afraid there won't be a few left. When the time comes, let him quickly retreat to Annan with this BMW horse.

Only now does Li Guangren feel relieved.

At night, King Ruan Zhengyu of Annan quietly left the camp with more than 200,000 troops and retreated along the road towards Annan Kingdom.

By the time Jia Ke got the news the next day, Ruan Zhengyu had already walked dozens of miles.

Now Jia Ke finally understood that Ruan Zhengyu was running out of ammunition and food and wanted to run away. But running away was not that easy.

Jia Ke immediately beat the drum and gathered all the main generals under his command.

As soon as everyone stood firm in the Chinese army's tent, Jia Ke had already entered the tent. He sat on the throne in the middle and without being polite, he directly ordered: "Xiao Yue, I want you to lead the troops of our army to serve as soldiers."

The vanguard from the front should immediately attack Annan's camp and defeat the enemy within three hours. If this is not possible, come and see us."

After hearing this, Xiao Yue immediately clasped his fists and raised his hands, "The last general will take orders."

After Xiao Yue finished speaking, he took the command arrow and left the tent, and began to prepare to go.

When Jia Ke saw Xiao Yue going out, he took out his command sword again and said to the commander of the Eight Banners Cavalry: "Eight of you, each leading the cavalry, will reinforce Xiao Yue from the left and right. If Xiao Yue defeats the enemy, immediately rush after Annan.

king."

After the eight commanders of the Eight Banners listened, they also received the order and went out to prepare.

"The remaining people will follow me as the Chinese army to reinforce Xiao Yue."

As soon as Jia Ke gave the order to go, the whole camp started to move.

In a short time, Xiao Yue had finished organizing his army. He and his Fenwu battalion filed out of the camp gate and headed straight for the Annan camp.

Next, the soldiers of the Eight Banners also left the main camp, and then they divided into left and right wings, following Fenwu Camp. They waited for Fenwu Camp to break through the opponent's camp, and then they attacked with their horses.

Besides, Li Guangren, who was in the Annan camp, was ready at dawn.

He ordered his soldiers to dig three trenches in front of the camp overnight, leaving no road out of the camp.

Then he ordered the soldiers to throw all unused tents and other items into the trench, and finally poured all the usable fuel in the camp.

Finally, countless firewood was placed in the camp, thinking that if the camp could not be defended, it would be burned to stop Jia Ke's attack.

When the sun was high in the sky, I received a report from Tan Ma, saying that the Central Plains Camp had already come out in full force and headed straight for them.

Li Guangren knew that the war was imminent, so he did not dare to neglect. He immediately dressed himself up and led his soldiers to the high platform at the entrance of the camp to direct the battle.

Li Guangren went up to the high platform and looked out. The first thing to appear outside the camp gate was tens of thousands of infantry. These soldiers and horses were different from others. They were the most elite he had ever seen. They were standing horizontally and vertically, like

Moving forward like a block of tofu, after walking for such a long time, there was not even a trace of confusion in the queue.

What's more important is that this army is well-equipped, and every soldier is wearing iron armor. These armors reflect golden light in the sunlight.

Li Guangren felt cold sweat when he saw this. He is also a battle-hardened general who has been in the army since he was a child. He has seen a lot of the elites of their Annan Kingdom, but no matter how powerful these elites are, they can only walk a hundred or two hundred steps.

They also had to reorganize their troops, unlike the troops on the opposite side who had already traveled several miles and still remained in formation.
