Shi Le personally led an army of 400,000, and brought all his masters over.
I originally wanted to kill Long Chen in a siege, but I didn't expect to be beaten so badly.
Sitting in the tent, Shi Le looked at Lu Qichang and Li Chenglie with a chill in his heart.
"Your Majesty, this time... this time it's only Long Chengen's fault. The cultivation level of his generals has improved, which led to this... failure."
Lu Qichang opened his mouth to comfort Shi Le.
Shi Le raised his eyes and looked at Lu Qichang, and sighed slightly: "Long Chengen's art of war is worth studying carefully. Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. I didn't understand the situation clearly, and that's why I suffered today's defeat."
Six Martial Emperor masters besieged Long Chen, and in the end three were killed and two seriously injured. Only he managed to escape unscathed.
No matter how you make excuses, a fiasco is a fiasco and cannot be covered up.
Li Chenglie, the commander of the army, sighed: "Long Chengen is well versed in the art of war and has high martial arts skills. It's really... ugh..."
The room fell into silence, and everyone felt heavy.
Shi Le said: "How do you think the war should continue?"
Lu Qichang's face was solemn and he said: "Your Majesty, actually... I think that Zhenguo Temple is too strong and attacking it is not a good strategy."
Shi Le remained silent, and Lu Qichang continued: "Wei Chen suggested that it is better to lure the enemy deeper and let Long Chengen continue to penetrate deep into our hinterland of Daxia, while we make deep ditches and high fortresses to let him attack the city."
"Weichen estimates that Nanliang will definitely start a war in the south of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Long Chengen's available troops will only be 200,000."
"He also wants to leave soldiers and horses to defend Jade Buddha Pass and Zhenguo Temple. There are even fewer soldiers and horses that can invade our hinterland of Daxia."
"In this way, the offensive and defensive forces are interchanged, and we can deal with it calmly."
After Lu Qichang finished speaking, he waited patiently for Shi Le's decision.
Shi Le looked at Li Chenglie and asked, "What do the commander-in-chief think?"
Li Chenglie said: "What the Privy Council Envoy said is true, but what the Privy Council Envoy said is the way to win or lose on the battlefield."
"Zhenguo Temple is the eastern gateway to Daxia. If it is abandoned, the gate to Daxia will be wide open, and Long Chengen will be able to advance and retreat freely. Daxia will be in danger."
"Also, what should we do if we retreat to the hinterland and Long Chengen occupies Zhenguo Temple and stands still?"
Lu Qichang put forward his own point of view from the perspective of success or failure on the battlefield. He believed that he should not fight Long Chen head-on at Zhenguo Temple. There would be no benefit in doing so.
We should lure the enemy deep into the city, allowing Long Chen to become the siege party, consuming the strength of the Long Family Army.
But Li Chengyeol believed that Zhenguo Temple was too important and must be recaptured.
Moreover, what if Long Chen doesn’t pursue him?
Lu Qichang shook his head and said: "No, Long Chengen is waiting to marry Emperor Luoxi. He cannot occupy Zhenguo Temple and stand still. He will definitely attack."
"Besides, I'm not saying that we don't want Zhenguo Temple, I'm just saying that we won't attack at this time."
"My purpose is to lure Long Chengen to go deep, and then consume the Long family army. After the Long family army is finished, we will counterattack and recapture Zhenguo Temple."
Li Chenglie retorted: "When a princess gets married, it can take several years. Long Cheng'en is extremely hateful, but it is undeniable that this thief is good at fighting and has excellent management skills."
"Give him two years, and Zhenguo Temple will become the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Who can take it back?"
The two of them had their own opinions, and the quarrel was very fierce. Shi Le stood at the front and said nothing.
After they had finished arguing, Shi Le said: "What you said makes sense. Let's take a rest first and talk about it tomorrow."
Lu Qichang and Li Chenglie stood up and exited the tent.
After the people left, Shi Le also left the tent and returned to the military tent where he rested.
There are all kinds of palace utensils here, and several palace ladies immediately came to serve them.
The golden lion armor was untied, and Shi Le sat on the edge of the bed.
After unbuttoning his clothes, Shi Le lowered his head and looked at his belly.
When they were fighting just now, Shi Le was shocked by Long Chen's true energy, and his abdomen had turned purple and black.
He didn't let Dr. Xue treat him just now because he was worried about the morale of the army being unstable.
Three generals died today and two were seriously injured. If he himself was seriously injured, the morale of the army would be in chaos.
"hiss.."
Shi Le pressed his abdomen, feeling a bone-piercing pain.
"Your Majesty!"
A beautiful palace maid came over quickly.
Shi Le raised his hand to signal to be silent: "Bring the medicine here."
The palace maid immediately took out healing medicine from an agarwood box. Shi Le swallowed the medicine and lay down slowly.
It was already dark outside, so the Xixia army set up tents, lit bonfires, and camped at the foot of the mountain.
Lu Qichang and Li Chenglie took charge of the army on their behalf. They set up camps everywhere and sent out a large number of cavalry on patrol to guard against Long Chen's sneak attack.
...
Zhenguo Temple.
When it gets dark, a bonfire is lit on the mountain, illuminating the whole mountain as bright as day.
Long Chen carefully patrolled and guarded various places to ensure that there were no omissions.
"Sir, the general won the battle today. General Shi Le suffered heavy losses. We might as well attack at night."
Bai Tingting looked at the military camp at the foot of the mountain and felt that tonight was a good opportunity for a night attack.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "After a big defeat during the day, Shi Le must be on tight guard. If we rush in and attack at night, we won't be able to take advantage."
Night attack is also a type of surprise attack. The key to victory is to attack suddenly and take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to catch them off guard.
Now that Shile has taken precautions and will definitely double his defense, the night attack is meaningless.
There are many people in Shile, so there is no advantage in fighting.
"Go back."
Long Chen took Bai Tingting back to the top of the mountain, and Bai Tingting turned around and walked to her room.
Long Chen grabbed Bai Tingting and said with a smile: "Why are you running?"
Bai Tingting was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "We are fighting, why..."
Long Chen walked in front, and Bai Tingting followed obediently behind.
After entering the room, Bai Tingting took the initiative to close the door and Long Chen took off his armor. Bai Tingting obediently took off the armor herself.
Inside, I only wore a white underlay and a bellyband.
Long Chen picked up Bai Tingting and put her on the bed. He untied the belt of the bottom lining and saw that the embroidery on the jade bellyband was very beautiful.
"Husband, I am alone, please be gentle."
Bai Tingting was so afraid of Long Chen that she usually stayed with Zhang Qian and the others and did not dare to serve alone.
"Afraid of me?"
Long Chen smiled and kissed her. Bai Tingting nodded and said, "I'm afraid."
Long Chen picked up Bai Tingting, lay down underneath, and said with a smile: "I'll let you take control, so you won't be afraid anymore."
Bai Tingting sat up straight and said with a smile, "That's not bad."
In a room not far away, Zhang Qian and the other two took off their armors and were looking at a map in the room.
"Shi Le didn't retreat even after suffering a big loss because he wanted to start a melee with us."
Wu Chuchu looked at the defense map he had just drawn.
Wu Xiangyun said: "After suffering such a big loss, if he returns to the court just now, he will definitely be disgraced."
Dugu Jiali agreed with Wu Xiangyun's statement: "The king of a country personally sent troops, but was killed so miserably. How can he explain to his subjects when he returns?"
"I estimate there will be a fierce fight tomorrow, so we need to be prepared."
Zhang Qian saw that Bai Tingting hadn't come back yet and asked, "Where is Tingting?"
Wu Xiangyun said: "I went on a mountain patrol with my husband."
Zhang Qian said doubtfully: "It's been so long and it's not over yet?"
Dugu Jiali hugged Zhang Qian, grabbed her with both hands, and said with a smile: "Maybe the mountain patrol is over, and we can do other things."
Wu Xiangyun smiled and said: "It's possible, just go to your husband's room for a ward check and you'll find out."
Dugu Jiali encouraged Zhang Qian: "Sister Qian, are you going?"
Zhang Qian smiled and said: "I'm not going. Tingting is so brave, how dare she accompany her husband alone?"
A prerequisite for a good relationship between women is that they don't have to compete with men.
The concubines in the palace were constantly fighting each other because there was only one emperor and everyone wanted to rob him.
The five of them are different. They have to discuss it every time and help each other to accompany Long Chen.
No one can bear it alone.
Even doing the most intimate things together, their relationship is naturally so good that there is nothing to say.
"Go and have a look."
Dugu Jiali continued to encourage, Zhang Qian smiled and said: "Jiali, do you want to go?"
Dugu Jiali said shyly: "What nonsense are you talking about? You only think about it."
Just as he was talking, Bai Tingting opened the door and walked in slowly, with a blush on her face.
"Tingting, aren't you? Are you alone?"
Wu Xiangyun hugged Bai Tingting and asked with a smile.
Bai Tingting fell on the bed and complained: "My husband lied to me and agreed that I would make the decision. In the end... I was exhausted."
Wu Chuchu smiled and said: "It's not the first time that you still believe his lies. When you are deeply in love, he doesn't care. He only cares about his own happiness."
They all saw through Long Chen's scumbag nature.
"Ignore him next time, he makes me so angry."
Bai Tingting fell asleep.
