"General?" Dai Cai subconsciously wanted to speak, but Li Xingchen raised his hand to stop him:
"Now we have many soldiers and generals, okay?"
Dai Cai was startled for a moment and nodded slowly.
"We have enough equipment and food now, right?"
Still nodding.
"We have surrounded Li Xun now, right?"
Although Dai Cai didn't know what Li Xingchen wanted to say, he could only nod his head first.
Li Xingchen couldn't help but smile: "In that case, if you want to catch a turtle in a urn, just do it directly."
"Hahahaha!" Suddenly the camp burst into laughter. Li Xingchen then said: "Of course, we have to be careful whether we catch it or not. We must not let this turtle bite our fingers."
After a pause, Li Xingchen ordered in a deep voice: "Cheng Feng!"
"The end is here!"
"You brought eight hundred soldiers and horses, deployed suspicious soldiers along the foot of the mountain, and tied up all the scarecrows outside Jiankang Mansion at that time," Li Xingchen said lightly, "It doesn't matter even if Li Xun's scouts see the flaw."
"No!" Cheng Feng hurriedly agreed.
Li Xunchen then said: "Li Xun!"
"The end is here!"
Looking at the Ba man in front of him who has matured a lot after being tempered by the war, Li Xingchen's voice did not change: "You will be the vanguard and pretend to attack the mountain stronghold on the south side."
After a pause, Li Xunchen did not forget to add: "You, Li Xun, can't lose to Li Xun."
Many generals smiled, but Li Xun handed over his hands with emotion: "The last general will live up to his command!"
Chen Zhishen, Dai Cai and others vaguely understood what Li Xunchen meant. Although their generals wanted to fight Li Xun head-on with a majestic formation, they did not forget to set up suspicious troops and feign attacks to keep Li Xun uncertain about Li Xunchen's true intentions.
It's really cunning.
Li Xingchen nodded and then said: "Chen Zhishen, Dai Cai, Tang Qi!"
"The end will be here!" the three of them promised together.
"Prepare your troops and prepare for battle!"
"promise!"
——————————————————-
If you want to say who has the most complicated mood in Dingjun Mountain right now, Li Xun dares to say that he is second. I am afraid no one dares to say that he is first.
From having thousands of troops stationed in Hanzhong preparing to launch a battle with Li Xingchen, to now there are only more than 2,000 remaining soldiers trapped in Dingjun Mountain. I am afraid that even Li Xun himself cannot explain the gap. The reason is unclear.
In fact, there is no big problem with Li Xun's troop formation. He and his direct line control the key points, while Niu Hong leads the majority of his own troops to control the long Mianshui defense line. If it were anyone else or even Wei Xiaokuan who came here, it is estimated that
It's the same arrangement.
But Li Xun never expected that Niu Hong's rebellion would make the whole arrangement extremely ridiculous. The originally strong Mianshui defense line would now become a fatal barrier separating Li Xun and Han Qinhu. Xiao Shilian was in the north, and this
A partial division that should be led by Li Xunchen's two generals, Chen Zhishen and Dai Cai, is in the center, while Pei Zilie is in the south. Li Xunchen's army spread out along the Mian River, completely blocking any contact between Li Xun and Han Qinhu.
possible pathways.
This allows both sides to fight independently even though they know that the other side is in difficulty.
Thinking of this, Li Xun wanted to cut Niu Hong, the damn traitor, into pieces. But now that the matter was over, dealing with the traitor was only a matter of the future. What he needed to do now was to find a way to deal with the enemy who had already set up a battle formation at the foot of the mountain.
.
"General, a suspicious soldier has been found in the north of the mountain!" A sentinel quickly ran up to the meeting hall of the camp.
Li Xun frowned. The enemy who had been silent for the past two days finally started to take action?
Several generals following Li Xun couldn't help but whisper, but it had to be said that deploying suspicious troops first was more like Li Xunchen's usual approach.
"Report!" Footsteps suddenly sounded, and another sentry rushed to the meeting hall, which made everyone from Li Xun a little surprised. The enemy had not made any noise for two days, so why were they moving so frequently now?
"The enemy's central army camp has changed the general's flag," the sentry said with a hint of panic in his voice. He paused before saying, "It's General Li Xingchen of Zhenxi."
"What?!" Li Xun's expression suddenly changed, and the surrounding generals also widened their eyes, "Why is Li Xunchen here?!"
Li Xun frowned and said nothing.
"Report!" Meteor's scout came just like Meteor, "The enemy has about two thousand soldiers and horses, attacking the mountain stronghold on the south side, and there are a large number of scouts in the valley on the south side!"
"Li Xunchen, is this the main direction of your attack?" Li Xun finally couldn't help but murmured. It seems that his initial judgment was correct after all.
According to Li Xun's original idea, the partial force sent by Xiao Shilian was actually the last resort. However, Xiao Shilian soon broke through Shu Road, Mianshui, and pointed directly at Yangping Pass, which made Li Xun's judgment look particularly ridiculous.
, also caused Li Xun to be questioned in the eyes of the generals.
After all, it was precisely because Li Xun pulled these two thousand soldiers to Dingjun Mountain that the entire Mianshui defense line was controlled by Niu Hong. The fall of Hanzhong had a lot to do with this decision. It is conceivable that if Li Xun was still in Hanzhong or
On the north bank of Mianshui, Li Tan, who was guarding the forage yard, would not be without reinforcements, and the huge Mianshui defense line would not be ineffective at all.
It can be said that because of Li Xun's decision-making mistakes, the whole of Hanzhong was surrendered in the blink of an eye, leaving only the two fortresses of Dingjunshan and Yangpingguan still in hand, but how long can these two places, blocked by news and under tight siege, be able to hold on?
, I’m afraid everyone doesn’t know it yet.
Now the appearance of Li Xunchen and the frequent mobilization of Bashu troops around Dingjun Mountain can finally prove that Li Xun's previous judgment was correct.
But now Li Xun needs to face a more serious problem, which is what Li Xunchen wants to do.
"General, I have sent a letter of challenge from the foot of the mountain, agreeing to fight our army the day after tomorrow at the foot of the mountain." Another general walked in quickly, with a solemn look on his face, "The signature is Li Xingchen."
The entire meeting hall suddenly fell silent. A famous general glanced at each other subconsciously. If the previous suspicious soldiers and attacks only made them feel a little nervous, then the challenge in front of them was enough to surprise them.
Li Xinchen's combat style is no stranger to these generals who have fought against Li Xinchen in Cangxi Valley. Surprising and treacherous command is a nightmare for many people, especially when he was mobilized by Li Xinchen in Cangxi Valley.
, is a past that everyone present is unwilling to recall and return to.
This opponent who is best at "making an impact in the east and attacking in the west" and "outstanding surprise troops" actually demands an upright confrontation?
They would rather believe that there was something wrong with their ears. But soon Li Xun's expression after reading the letter told them that it seemed to be true.
Slowly putting down the gauntlet, Li Xun gave a wry smile: "Is it because our troops are too small that Li Xunchen no longer plans to use tactics?"
Before the people around him could speak, Li Xun slapped the gauntlet and said in a cold voice: "First the suspected soldier, and then the gauntlet. It's both true and false. It's also interesting. This time we will compete with Li Xingchen. It depends.
Look at Dingjun Mountain, which has only one road, he can't get up there!"
