Xiao Maha watched Li Xinchen's back disappear at the entrance of the tent, and finally couldn't support it, so he stretched out his hand to support the table, and Lu Guangda and Ren Zhong hurriedly wanted to step forward to help, but Xiao Maha stretched out his hand to stop them, raised his head and said miserably:

"Do we really have no choice?"

Lu Guangda and Ren Zhong looked at each other speechlessly, they knew the answer to this question, but they couldn't say it at this time.

In the end, it was Ren Zhong, a veteran, who considered and said: "The number of soldiers and horses under Li Xinchen's command is not much, now there are more than 20,000 under the two cities of Xiangfan, plus more than 10,000 on the side of Yangping Pass, can be changed from 3,000 soldiers and horses when he entered Shu to 30,000 soldiers and horses now, Li Xinchen is also very capable, but this should have already drawn all the troops of Bashu, is there really so many soldiers and horses on the side of Baidi City?" ”

"Li Xinchen's sailor has not moved, and we don't know how many soldiers and horses there are in the White Emperor City." Xiao Maha said in a low voice, "We can't afford to gamble with the safety of Jiangling." ”

Lu Guangda and Ren Zhong could only nod helplessly, if they were someone else, they might still be able to figure it out, but Li Xinchen is definitely an incomprehensible master, they believe that Li Xinchen said so arrogantly today, he will definitely be able to do it.

The responsibility for Jiangling's gains and losses is too heavy for anyone present to bear, so they would rather believe it than believe it.

At this time, Xiao Maha smiled bitterly: "We still have time to think about this, but what Li Xinchen said when he left just now, we have to arrange it now, and it is estimated that there will really be guests coming tonight." ”

Lu Guangda and Ren Zhong looked awe-inspiring, and at the same time surrendered their promises.

Regardless of whether the previous one was a lie or not, they believed that what Li Xinchen said about the possible battle tonight should be true.

————————————-

"If I'm not mistaken, there are only two thousand defenders in White Emperor City in total, and they are all new soldiers, even if you add the Ba people from the southern county, you can't get together enough of three thousand people, do you really plan to attack Jiangling with these soldiers and horses?" Pei Zilie said while riding a horse to catch up with Li Xinchen, and when he said the last sentence, his voice rose, obviously with disbelief.

Li Xinchen smiled slightly: "There are few people who know the details of the White Emperor City, so even if they can guess, they will definitely not dare to make a rash judgment, after all, Jiangling is too important to them······ Or maybe Dae is too important to the current imperial court. ”

"It's like it didn't matter." Pei Zilie obviously understood that Li Xinchen was just scaring Xiao Maha, and his face also showed a relaxed look, and he couldn't help but quip.

Li Xinchen waved his hand and unexpectedly vetoed Pei Zilie: "The original Dajiang is not as important as it is now, it turns out that His Majesty's eyes will not fall on the Dajiang, it is not where he is crisscrossing and crisscrossing." ”

Pei Zilie frowned, and had to admit that what Li Xinchen said made sense.

Dajiang was the bottom line for Nan Chen before, and it was the position where the attack was initiated, so Huaishui and Shuishui were obviously more important in comparison, but with the rapid turn of the situation now, Dajiang naturally received attention, which also meant that Nan Chen would have to take a defensive posture, and Dajiang Trench was the most natural and important line of defense.

This is also why Xiao Maha did not dare to joke about the safety of Jiangling at all, once Jiangling fell into the hands of Li Xinchen, then in a broad sense, including Chun Yuliang, Wu Mingche and other people who supported Li Xinchen, the Li Xinchen group completely formed an oppressive posture against Nan Chen.

In this case, Nan Chen can really only bow his head to Li Xinchen, or admit Li Xinchen's independent identity, or use a higher title to reward Li Xinchen, as for what will happen next, the Southern Dynasty has gone through four generations of "Song, Qi, Liang and Chen", and everyone already knows that it is just a set of processes.

Li Xinchen can bet on Xiao Maha's attitude, if Xiao Maha's fooling, it will naturally be better, and even if Xiao Maha's not fooled, Li Xinchen can think of other ways; But for Xiao Maha, if what Li Xinchen said is true, then if he is not ready to go back in the next few days, Jiangling may really be in danger.

How to choose is decided by Xiao Maha.

Chen Zhishen has been waiting outside the camp with more than a dozen soldiers, Li Xinchen and Pei Zilie went to Lu Guangda's military camp, in fact, there were only dozens of personal guards to escort them, which of course made Chen Zhishen very nervous, after all, no one knew whether Xiao Maha would set up a Hongmen banquet, once Li Xinchen and Pei Zilie were wiped out, then for the entire Li Xinchen group, it would be tantamount to a catastrophe.

Therefore, Chen Zhishen had already lined up outside the camp with soldiers and horses early, and once there was any movement here, Chen Zhishen would definitely attack without hesitation.

"See the general!" When Chen Zhishen saw Li Xinchen, he hurriedly bowed.

And Li Xinchen bowed: "Let's go, let's go back!" ”

At this time, the sky has darkened, but the soldiers and horses in the camp have not rested, after burying the pot and cooking, a team of soldiers and horses quietly hidden in the camp under the leadership of the general and the lord, at the same time, there are two teams of soldiers led by Li Xun to hide at the north end of the camp, and Zheng Kaiyuan's department also drew part of the troops to support the Chinese army camp.

However, according to Li Xinchen's judgment, Chen Zhishen and Lu Guangda, who are obviously close to each other but maintain hostility to each other, should be Cao Xiaoda's best choice, after all, Cao Xiaoda wants to succeed in a sneak attack and create chaos at this time, so it is obvious that Chen Zhishen and Lu Guangda's subordinates, who pay more attention to each other, are the best choice.

Sneak attack is also a technical work, not when the sneak attack will be effective, after all, the army is encamped, not here to sleep, basically scouts will be all over the direction of the military village, at the same time, when close to the battlefield, it can almost be said that no one will really sleep, once the enemy attacks, a well-trained army can be completed in just a quarter of an hour, into battle.

Therefore, the so-called sneak attack is generally in a safe location or when the enemy feels safe, otherwise it will not achieve much effect. And since the sneak attack is called "stealing", it is natural that too many troops cannot be used, otherwise the enemy knows as long as he is not a fool, and in the end the sneak attack can only evolve into a big war, but if the troops are not many and are detected, then it is naturally equivalent to sending such an elite army to the enemy's mouth.

In general, since it is decided to sneak attack, it means that it itself has problems such as insufficient troops or insufficient time, otherwise under normal circumstances, few people will choose to take risks. Therefore, a sneak attack is also a technical job, but it is not something that anyone can launch a sneak attack at will if they command the army.
