The front line had already received the news that Shen Zeyuan was going to drive the expedition in person, and everyone was very happy and felt that there was hope again.

Shen Zeyuan brought Xu Yanyan with him, and along the way, the two of them were discussing how to break the deadlock in front of the Great Calendar Dynasty. Xu Yanyan proposed: "Your Majesty, when you go to the front line, you must consult with several generals first, and you have to let them know the specific situation." ”

Shen Zeyuan also thought so, and after discussing the specific details, the two went back to the camp to rest.

All the way forward, the people and soldiers everywhere were very excited, and the places where the army arrived were always crowded with people and chanting in unison. Shen Zeyuan also saw such a scene, and asked his soldiers, "Are you almost there?"

"Back to Your Majesty, we will reach our destination thirty miles ahead, and you can see that the enthusiasm of the soldiers is getting higher and higher. The soldier said happily to Shen Zeyuan.

Shen Zeyuan said "um", and he was very happy in his heart.

When the soldiers saw Shen Zeyuan's team, their morale was high, and they all came out to greet them, and Shen Zecang was no exception.

Seeing that Shen Zeyuan's horse stopped, Shen Zecang personally stepped forward to lead the horse for Shen Zeyuan.

"See Your Majesty!" everyone knelt down in unison to pay homage to Shen Zeyuan.

"All the soldiers, please get up!" Shen Zeyuan dismounted and said to everyone.

"Your Majesty, you are tired on the march, I will help you go back to rest and report to you how the battle is going. Shen Zecang said to Shen Zeyuan.

Shen Zeyuan agreed, he was not in a hurry at this time. After returning to Shen Zeyuan's temporary camp, Shen Zecang hurriedly knelt down and said to Shen Zecang: "Your Majesty, the minister failed to hold the city, I hope Your Majesty will punish you." Shen Zecang said to Shen Zeyuan.

Shen Zecang was very happy at this time, thinking that as long as you didn't come, the Wu army would be able to capture several more cities in a row and reach the imperial city. It's a pity that you're in a hurry to die right now.

Shen Zeyuan didn't embarrass him too much, but just said to him: "I already know, this time Wu Guo is prepared, it's good that you can take the initiative to come forward to support, I don't blame you." ”

Although Shen Zeyuan said this on the surface, he still looked as cold as before, but his heart was already burning with anger. He wants to make both Shen Zecang and Wu Qingge pay the price here.

After speaking, Shen Zeyuan thought that his body was sleepy, and asked Shen Zecang to go down, and he was going to rest. Shen Zecang didn't stay long, and went down.

As soon as Shen Zecang left, Shen Zeyuan's eyes immediately changed, and his eyes were full of coldness. Xu Yanyan came in and told him: "Your Majesty, the minister has quietly sent a message to the generals, asking them to come over alone at night to discuss matters. ”

"Hmm. Shen Zeyuan agreed, and then said to Xu Yanyan: "This time you are a military advisor, you still need to bother a lot." ”

"Your Majesty, you are polite, it is right to serve you. Xu Yanyan said.

"There is another matter, General Pei Liang has been found, he has been weakened, and he is now in the camp, and I have also informed him to come to discuss the matter tonight. Xu Yanyan continued.

At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, the soldiers had already rested, and several generals quietly went to Shen Zeyuan.

"Your Majesty! The loss of four cities in a row is a dereliction of duty on the part of his subordinates. Pei Liang knelt down and said to Shen Zeyuan.

"Get up, this time I have something to say to you. Shen Zeyuan said slowly.

"Shen Zecang and Wu Qingge, the princess of Wu Kingdom, have already given our city defense map to Wu Qingge, so we lost three cities in a row so quickly. Shen Zeyuan continued.

Several soldiers were taken aback, and they didn't expect Shen Zecang to commit treason. Pei Liang snorted and scolded: "Hmph, I already knew that this grandson was not a good thing, and sure enough, hum dog traitor." ”

Several generals also discussed: "How can this be, no wonder you will lose three cities in a row." ”

"Your Majesty, Shen Zecang's treason has caused such a crisis to the people of the Great Li Dynasty, we must not spare it. A general said. Several other generals knelt down in agreement.

"I'm here for this matter, we're going to stop these two here, and we must not let the two of them fight for the tiger again. Shen Zeyuan said angrily.

Several generals knelt down and said to Shen Zeyuan: "The ministers are willing to listen to Your Majesty's command and fully cooperate with Your Majesty." ”

Shen Zeyuan asked them all to pretend to continue to obey Shen Zecang's orders, first hold their troops still, and then take them by surprise, and then secretly discuss a plan to deal with him.

Shen Zeyuan asked Shen Zecang to continue to discuss the military on his behalf because he was tired and unwell, and the next day Shen Zecang discussed the marching strategy with several soldiers as usual.

Several generals all looked at each other and pretended to obey Shen Zecang.

"This time, we first outflanked from the left and right, sent two elite soldiers and strong generals from both sides of the city, and then made them mistakenly think that we had retreated, and lured the enemy deeper. Shen Zecang said to everyone.

"Do the generals have any proposals?" Shen Zecang continued to ask everyone for their opinions.

Several generals replied one after another: "There is no opinion, everything is arranged by the prince." ”

Several people left Shen Zecang's tent, and several generals went to Pei Liang's account together and discussed the war together.

"Hmph, this Shen Zecang traitor, until now, he can still talk nonsense here. Pei Liang said indignantly.

"That is, it lures the enemy deeper, and if it continues like this, the enemy will definitely capture this city again soon, which is just nonsense. One of the generals also said to everyone.

"Okay, let's not talk about it yet, let's discuss how we can break this situation first, let's discuss it first, and then wait for Xu Junshi to come and then discuss. A general said.

Everyone also agreed with his point of view, Shen Zeyuan had already told them yesterday that Xu Yanyan was a military advisor this time, and some things were a little too obvious for him to come forward, which would arouse Shen Zecang's suspicions, so let Xu Yanyan replace him.

Chatting and chatting, Xu Yanyan came, everyone knew that he was Shen Zeyuan's person, and they didn't take precautions against him, continued to discuss the plan, and then asked his opinion, and finally implemented Xu Yanyan's revised plan Xie Everyone was very excited.

After discussing with several generals, it was Shen Zecang who sent all the soldiers under his command out, and then wrote a letter in the camp himself, as before, to report to Wu Qingge the next plan they had discussed, and by the way, told her that Shen Zeyuan had come to the front line in person, and if he could, he would have his life to come, and he would not have the life to go back.

After writing it, Shen Zecang handed the letter to the secret guard, telling him to be careful and ensure that it was delivered safely to the singer Wu Qing. This time, Shen Zeyuan personally came to the front line, maybe he came to stare at himself.

On the second day, Shen Zecang did not go to the battlefield in person, and the soldiers always fainted when they saw him in the past few days, so he paid attention to rest.
