Chapter 450: Seems to be going well
The lanterns gradually fell, and it was already past the end of the hour, and the time of the early dynasty was approaching, Feng Yewu, who had not slept all night, looked at Wu Duxue, who was also a little tired, and couldn't help but rub his eyes that were a little sour, and said softly:
"Let's do this first, you can also go back and rest, this night's toss will be avoided as soon as possible."
When Wu Duxue heard this, she didn't say anything, but bowed her head and bowed, and then turned to leave.
At the same time, on the battlefield in northern Xinjiang, the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Ye Dynasty, thousands of horses galloped and roared, the sound of war drums resounded the heavens and the earth, and the horns of the long sounding made the blood of millions of soldiers boil.
"Kill!"
After a cry that shook the mountains and rivers, the army launched an offensive towards the city in front of it, which was already the seventh.
During this time, Lu Jue's Northern Expedition army can be described as overwhelming, although it is no longer as smooth as before, but it is still not something that these defenders in the city can resist.
The current city is already much more tenacious than the previous six, and after two charges, they all defended.
In the barracks, Lu Jue and Mu Bai looked at the map with solemn faces, while the generals on the side looked extremely refreshed, after all, the previous six consecutive cities were exceptionally smooth.
What kind of city walls and fortresses are like paper paste, which also gives these generals plenty of confidence.
"What do you think of this time?"
Lu Jue naturally sensed the contempt of his soldiers and even the soldiers, but he didn't directly pierce it, but after thinking for a long time alone, he opened his mouth and asked Mu Bai on the side.
Mu Bai heard Lu Jue's inquiry, but he just smiled indifferently and quipped: "When I was a major general, I almost forgot the existence of my military advisor, and now I started asking me." ”
Mu Bai's joking sentence was the worry in Lu Jue's heart, but the rest of the generals on the side didn't hear the clues, but thought that Mu Bai was joking, and they all immediately laughed.
Lu Jue raised his eyes and looked at everyone, although he didn't have any attitude, but this group of generals hurriedly put away their laughter, after all, this group of people are also battle-hardened, and naturally know that now the soldiers are bleeding and sweating in front, no matter how unbearable the enemy is, this is definitely not the time to laugh.
Everyone restrained their expressions, and although their faces returned to seriousness, there was still contempt in their eyes that could not be concealed.
Lu Jue sighed softly, stared at the map in front of him again, and sighed: "Don't say that you think I have forgotten you, I'm afraid that this battle will continue like this, and the soldiers of this general are about to forget me as the commander." ”
"Hahaha, how could it be, the major general is now the soul of our Northern Expeditionary Army, and everyone will not forget it."
Li Siyuan is relatively close to Lu Jue right now, so he dares to reply with a haha, although the rest of the people didn't dare to say much, but the meaning in their eyes is actually similar.
Lu Jue didn't seem to listen to Li Siyuan's comfort, but straightened his waist, took a deep breath, glanced at Mu Bai on the side with a little deep meaning, pointed to a sign on the map, which was obviously the city of the king of Beichang that the Northern Expeditionary Army was now capturing, and asked.
"Regardless of what we do, General Ben just wants to ask, if you, General Li, defend the city, how long can you defend it? How long can you cope with the current situation? ”
When Li Siyuan heard this, looking at the appearance of the city on the map, he couldn't help but scratch his head with a smile and was a little embarrassed, and said: "It's not that the last general is too confident, this city, the last general can hold on for at least more than half a year." ”
And hearing Li Siyuan's words, the rest of the generals on the side couldn't help but nod their heads, indeed, according to the information provided on the map, there is almost everything in this city, if it is reasonably arranged, if it is not a hard battle with the enemy within half a year, it is more than enough to guarantee half a year.
"Then General Ben asked General Li again, are there any differences between the cities in front of this one and this one?"
Lu Jue pointed to the city they had captured before and asked again.
Li Siyuan shook his head and replied, "Back to the young general, it seems that there is no difference between the ministers. ”
"There is no difference, so why can the city in front of it be so easy to break down? Aren't those generals who defend the city even inferior to everyone here? ”
Lu Jue continued to ask in a cold voice, but this question made many of the generals present feel like a thorn in the back.
After all, there are still people who have realized something, but there are still people who don't realize the problem, but they replied with a smile: "I think the guards in this city know that Wei Siyuan rebelled and was unwilling to help the abuse, or the guards in the city are long gone, and the civil officials left behind don't know the law of defending the city." ”
Lu Jue did not rush to refute this group of people, but nodded slowly, thinking that what they said made some sense, and then continued to ask: "Then this city is no different from the previous ones, why can it resist the first attack of our army?" ”
Just after asking, Lu Jue didn't give these people a chance to speak, so he had already made an excuse for them, and said: "I think it's because there is a military general in this city who knows a little about defending the city, so it's like this." ”
Lu Jue smiled and found an answer for everyone, raised his eyes and looked around, the generals who had already understood a little in their hearts all bowed their heads at this moment and were silent, and there were some generals who took it for granted, but they really nodded in a daze and agreed with Lu Jue's statement.
"Good."
Lu Jue nodded admiringly, then turned to look at Mu Bai on the side, and said, "Mr. Mu Bai, I don't know if you think this second siege will be successful?" ”
Mu Bai took Lu Jue's words and said, "If I didn't guess wrong, I can." ”
Just after Mu Bai's words fell, a military general who didn't understand the reason replied softly: "Mr. Mu Bai, I'm afraid it will take a few more times, there is no difference between the first attack and the second attack, and it is impossible to take the city." ”
Mu Bai looked at the general, and did not refute, but smiled without saying a word, sure enough, when the military general finished speaking, the small soldiers outside the camp ran in in a panic, and said with a happy face: "Generals, our army has won a complete victory and successfully won the city!" ”
"What?"
Although many of the rest of the generals agreed with the general's words and felt that Mu Bai had guessed wrong, when the results came out, many people were shocked.
If it weren't for Lu Jue's words, even if they were defeated for the second time, this group of generals would not notice anything unusual, but after Lu Jue's guidance, everyone understood that as long as the other party was a military general guarding the city, then it could be delayed until half a year later, after all, this common sense even the captain of a battalion knew the truth.
