The first thousand three hundred and ninety-eight chapters when the wind rises
As for whether it will be an extraordinary performance to directly capture Chen Liu, or a normal performance to eat up more than half of Chen Liu's troops, both are excellent.
Needless to say, the first option is to end the battle immediately and capture the strategic target. However, in Liu Ye's view, this possibility is extremely slim. After all, it is definitely not an ordinary general who can be favored by Cao Cao to guard Chenliu.
The second possibility is the most likely. Taking half of the troops will definitely be a huge blow to Chen Liu. Even if the remaining troops are withdrawn from Chen Liu, the remaining troops will be defeated by then, which will also be a major blow to Chen Liu's situation.
At that time, whether it is due to declining morale or insufficient troops, it will cause turmoil in the city after Liu Ye leads his troops to besiege the city and attack it for a few days. Taking Chenliu City at that time will be just a matter of a few seconds for Liu Ye.
When Cai Yang withdrew Chen Liu, he looked at the more than forty personal guards left behind him. His eyes turned red and he almost shed tears. He didn't expect that he would lose so miserably that he couldn't even withdraw.
Short of a cup of tea, only a few people came out.
Of course, Cai Yang didn't know that except for these people, everyone else had been killed by Chen Dao's personal guards. Otherwise, it would have been even more heartbreaking.
"Open the door!" Cai Yang shouted with a lonely look on his horse.
"This is General Cai." The city gate commander was shocked. He quickly put down the drawbridge and opened the city gate to let Cai Yang in. Of course, Cai Yang's thousand troops and horses went out and only about forty people came back. The city gate commander also noticed this scene.
His eyes and heart couldn't help but cast a shadow.
Entering the city, Cai Yang went straight to the Chenliu County Government Office, where Li Dian and Le Jin were waiting for Cai Yang's return.
When he saw Cai Yang come in, he took off his helmet, then threw it on the desk with a depressed expression, and sat unsteadily behind the desk. He knew something was wrong and immediately asked.
Cai Yang was silent for a long time, then repeated all the previous situations with a bitter sigh. Both Li Dian and Le Jin were shocked. After all, Le Jin had been in the army for many years and was far more experienced than Li Dian. After listening,
Cai Yang was immediately shocked by what he said.
"No, go and block the news." Le Jin immediately stood up and ordered his bodyguards.
Li Dian only reacted after hearing this. After Le Jin finished explaining, the personal guards had already rushed out. However, such a long distance from the city gate to the center of the city had already made many people aware of this situation.
As for the news being blocked, a lot of rumors still spread.
Two or three days later, a lot of rumors had spread in Chenliucheng. However, at this time, Le Jin couldn't stop it even if he wanted to. On the contrary, because of the ban two days ago, the credibility of these rumors increased a lot.
The morale of the soldiers in the city was somewhat turbulent.
Fortunately, Le Jin also deserves to be called a famous general. He successfully stabilized the morale of the army without being stingy with rewards, but the morale was obviously low.
"How is the morale of the soldiers in the city?" Le Jin asked when he saw Li Dian coming back from patrolling. In the past two days, Le Jin did not dare to let Cai Yang continue patrolling, but only let him practice in the military camp in the city.
"No. Morale is still a bit low. The morale that rose after the rewards in the past two days began to decline again when the opponent never showed up. We have dealt with several deserters before, but the situation is still not good." Li Dian shook his head and said.
.
It is not terrible that an army of a thousand men was defeated. What is terrible is that except for the more than 40 people who came back at the beginning, no one has come back yet. What is important is that many soldiers have seen this scene. This has an impact on morale.
Very big.
"Liu Beijun's continuous victories have really affected morale, and this time it is really outrageous. No one escaped." Le Jin sighed and said. "Mancheng, do you have any ideas?"
"When Liu Bei's army is about to arrive, he will give a large number of rewards and then go out for a field battle. General Cai has already said that he can suppress Chen Dao on the opposite side, but the general commanding the army on the opposite side is Yu Jin. He has enough defense but not enough attack."
Li Dian thought for a while and said.
"It's pretty much what I thought. If we fight against the other side, as long as we're not a top commander with legion talent, we won't lose." Le Jin said solemnly, but when he mentioned having legion talent, he couldn't help but feel guilty.
.
Le Jin has always believed that he is not weaker than others, but now his strength has not reached the level of internal energy separation, and the commander-in-chief has no way to obtain legion talents. What does it mean to be not weaker than others?
"How about I do it?" Li Dian said after being silent for a while. He had worked hard for so long to avenge Zhao Yun, but he didn't meet Zhao Yun. It would be better to try it on others first, at least he would know his own.
weight.
"Okay, I will be at the top of the city then." Le Jin thought for a while and said. Although Li Dian is young, Li Dian once practiced a military formation in the military camp, and he was able to advance and retreat freely. It can be seen that he has indeed spent a lot of money.
A lot of hard work.
"As long as we can win a small victory or draw, our morale will be high." Li Dian said calmly. He thought of the death of his father and brother again, but at this time Li Dian completely forgot about it and had ignored it.
Another important person in the city.
"Actually, as long as it's not a big defeat, it will be good for our morale." Le Jin nodded and said, "But no matter what, a big defeat is impossible."
Li Dian also nodded proudly, and it seemed the same to him.
In a small courtyard in the city, a young man was lying on a rocking chair, flipping through the paper classics in his hand, and slowly and silently recited: "There is no home in the vast land, the roads are connected, there is no place left, and the land is surrounded by conspiracy.
Fight when the ground is dead, and you will not be able to control the route, the army will not attack, the city will not attack, the land will not be fought, and the emperor's orders will not be accepted."
After reading, the young man slowly leaned back on the rocking chair and placed the book worth thousands of gold on the stone table beside him. A slight smile appeared on his face, "Winning by surprise? It's really good to do the opposite. Just do it the other way around."
Although I don’t know what move you made with this move, Mancheng and Wen Qian have already lost."
"But with this trick, you are destined to not be able to defeat Chen Liu in one fight. Although you are like playing chess, letting your opponent move forward according to your thinking, but ah, people will be replaced in the middle." The seemingly young and elegant man said,
He raised his hand and looked at the blue sky through the seam of his hand.
[Liu Ziyang, if there is a chance, I really hope to have a fair fight with a top counselor like you. Unfortunately, it is impossible for you and me. If we don’t use everything externally, we are not worthy of being called counselors. 】
The elegant man closed his eyes and thought with a chuckle.
And at this moment, a gust of wind swept by, and a page of the paper book placed on the stone table was turned over, and it read: "Time is the dryness of the sky. The sun is the moon, and the moon is in the Ji, Bi, Yi, Zhen."
Also, all these four places are the day when the wind rises."
It was at this time that Chen Liunei had already begun to make room for the coming war. Many houses were demolished because they hindered the mobilization of troops. (To be continued.)
