Chapter 168

Yuancheng County, county government.

There were many generals gathered in the hall, including the generals leading the troops of Pingen County, the chief generals leading the troops of Qingyuan County, the chief generals of Guantao County, and the officials of Yuancheng County. The crowd gathered together, with dozens of people.

There are only a few who can speak, most of them are so-called.

At this moment, all the officials looked ugly.

Cai Jin, the county magistrate of Yuancheng County, glanced at the officials present and said slowly: "For several consecutive days, thousands of people have entered the camp of the Jizhou Army every day. To this day, it is probably no less than 20,000 or 30,000. Not only that, judging from the other party's posture, there may be a steady stream of troops coming. The forces of our four counties combined are not as much as those of the other party."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials were silent, and their cheeks were even less bloody.

At the beginning, Chunyu Qiong arrived in Yuancheng County with injuries and found the county magistrate Cai Jin, and asked Cai Jin to mobilize soldiers from various counties to come to Yuancheng County to ambush Wang Lei's army.

The county magistrates of Pingen County, Qingyuan County and Guantao County agreed and sent their respective troops to come.

The troops from several counties arrived in Yuancheng County and were waiting excitedly for Wang Lei to lead his army to come.

Chunyu Qiong's statement is correct. The target of the Jizhou army led by Wang Lei was really Yuancheng County, and they came straight to Yuancheng County. As soon as the army arrived, Cai Jin received a reward from the soldiers and learned that there were more than 5,000 soldiers on the other side.

The opponent's troops were not large, and Cai Jin was overjoyed. The commanders of Pingen County, Qingyuan County and Guantao County were also very happy, thinking that the five thousand soldiers were not their opponents.

There are more than 2,000 soldiers in Pingen County, more than 2,000 soldiers in Qingyuan County, and Guantao County is slightly stronger and there are three thousand soldiers. Yuancheng County, as a large county, also has three thousand soldiers. The forces of the four counties have gathered together, and a total of more than 10,000 soldiers.

Wang Lei has only 5,000, and is obviously not the opponent of the troops in the four counties.

Cai Jin was full of confidence at the time and wanted to capture Wang Lei and show his face in front of Yuan Shao.

At this time, a problem occurred.

The chief generals of the four counties were arguing constantly for the vanguard, and everyone wanted to send troops to capture Wang Lei as soon as possible. A day passed, but there was no result in this battle. Before Cai Jin led his troops to fight, only one night later, early the next morning, more than 4,000 troops suddenly arrived at the military camp where Wang Lei was stationed.

In one night, Wang Lei's troops turned into tens of thousands of people.

This time, the forces of both sides were evened.

Cai Jin felt that hatred in his heart, hated that he did not decisively attack directly and lost a great opportunity. The opponent's strength was similar, and Cai Jin felt that the probability of winning was half the point, while the other leaders of Pingen County, Guantao County and Qingyuan County also felt that Wang Lei's strength was enhanced and he was unwilling to fight. The leaders of the four counties began to shirke responsibility again and were unwilling to be a pioneer.

Another day after this debate, but it still failed to come to an end. As a result, Wang Lei's army did not go to war the next day after he arrived.

Early in the morning of the third day, something terrifying happened again.

On that morning, nearly 5,000 soldiers arrived in Yuancheng County. In total, Wang Lei's troops were as many as 15,000. Facing more troops than him, Cai Jin was timid in his heart. The commander of the leader of Qingyuan County and Hepingen County in Guantao County were also timid, feeling that this battle was lingering.

Maybe they were defeated.

Even if Chunyu Qiong persuaded him next to him, the chief generals of each county were unwilling to send troops.

Cai Jin was powerless. Even if he wanted to send troops to save the situation, he only had 3,000 troops, but the other side had 15,000 troops, so he didn't dare to go out at all. Moreover, Cai Jin was unwilling to sacrifice his soldiers, so he quit his own battle and continued to delay time.

The more you drag it back, the more terrifying things are.

On the morning of the fourth day, another five thousand army appeared and entered Wang Lei's military camp with great fanfare.

Cai Jin received the news and fainted in blood when he was struck by lightning.

When the county lords and generals of the Hepingen County of Qingyuan County and Guantao County heard this, they instantly became petrified and had no intention of fighting. Their 10,000 people were pieced together, and they rarely went to the battlefield, and the soldiers lacked training and were not strong in combat. Wang Lei was good at fighting, and his 20,000 troops under his command were fierce and cruel. Once they fought, they would definitely be defeated.

Fighting will lead to failure!

This is the voice of the county magistrates!

Without the intention of seeking a war, the heads of each county had to stop fighting.

After a while, they also received news that the army was coming.

The number of 20,000 is still soaring, which makes the heads of each county have no intention of fighting. It is precisely because of this that Cai Jin summoned all the heads of each county and invited them to the hall to discuss matters.

Seeing that everyone was not talking, Cai Jin had to say, "Everyone, what should I do? I have to come up with a charter."

The head general of Pingen County sighed and said helplessly: "What can we do now? Wang Lei's continuous increase in troops is obviously to accumulate more strength, and then he will take over Yuancheng County in one go."

Cai Jin nodded and glanced at Chunyu Qiong.

The Lord of Qingyuan County turned his eyes and continued, "Wang Lei has the support of Han Fu behind him, and he is very powerful! I got the news. Han Fu handed over the collection of Zhan Lu Sword to Wang Lei, and appointed Wang Lei as General Yang Wu, and asked Wang Lei to lead his troops to take action first and then report. Wang Lei has great power, and there is also the support of the entire Jizhou behind him. He can mobilize troops to fight continuously, but we can't win!"

Cai Jin nodded again and looked at Chunyu Qiong again.

The head general of Guantao County shook his head and said, "We have missed the opportunity in this battle. If Wang Lei had just arrived and went out to fight, he might have a chance to fight. It would be too late to fight now!"

"A bunch of waste, not thinking about how to win a battle, but only knows how to say discouraged words!"

Suddenly, an unsociable voice came out.

The person who spoke was Chunyu Qiong who was recuperating from Yuancheng County. After these days of cultivation, Chunyu Qiong's injuries healed and he was able to act freely. Chunyu Qiong was different from the officials present. The officials in each county were unstable, but Chunyu Qiong was a loyal Yuan Shao and was not allowed to fear war.

When Chunyu Qiong spoke, a smile appeared on Cai Jin's face.

Cai Jin narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "General Chunyu, we are not the ones who lead troops to fight. It is okay to manage a county, but if we go to the battlefield, we have no strength and lack the ability!"

Chunyu Qiong shouted: "Even if you lose, you have to fight!"

The head general of Pingen County said: "Why would the soldiers be stationed in the city be better than General Chunyu to lead his troops as the vanguard?"

The county lord of Qingyuan immediately agreed to the general and said, "General Chunyu is a powerful general under the tent of Duke Yuan, and he is the right-hand man of Duke Yuan. Could it be that General Chunyu does not even have the courage to lead troops to fight?"

The main general of Guantao County was not a good bird, and he said aggressively: "General Chunyu led his troops to be defeated by Wang Lei in Ye County. Don't you want to avenge your previous shame? We want soldiers, weapons, and food. If you want them, you want them, you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them, so you want them to defeat Wang Lei."

"War as soon as you fight, why am I Chunyu Qiong afraid of it!"

Chunyu Qiong slapped the desk table, stood up and stood up.

The heads of each county showed joy and clasped their fists to praise Chunyu Qiong. However, Chunyu Qiong looked at the smiling faces, and felt a chill in his heart, and suddenly a premonition of something bad suddenly arose.
