"Let's talk about the current situation, what should our army do?" Chen Jingxuan's tired body leaned on the back of the chair casually, and when he saw the generals under his command arriving one after another, he waved his hand at everyone to sit down and talk.

The temperature in the hall is still very cool in comparison, in the two corners, there is a huge ice stone in each place, in front of the ice stone, each erected a large fan rotated by artificial machinery, which can continuously blow the cold air emitted by the ice stone in the room, so as to achieve the effect of cooling.

However, no one dared to really think that this was the real temperature, after all, almost all the generals present were more or less ill. They each wiped the beads of sweat from their foreheads and sat down in their own places. Subsequently, the people in the house successively served iced sour plum soup to relieve the heat for everyone to quench their thirst and cool down.

Although Chen Jingxuan's life seems to be quite good on the surface, he knows the real situation very well, the stock of the ice cellar in Fuzhong, even if he enjoys it alone in his own house, plus the occasional invitation to the public to drink a bowl of iced sour plum soup, I am afraid that he can survive this summer at most. But with the 100,000 soldiers under his command, Chen Jingxuan really has no good way.

"My lord, when I came here just now, I had already discussed it with several generals!" Now that General Wang has become the first person in the army, in this case, he is naturally the first to speak.

"Oh, let's talk about it, what the result is!" Responding lightly, Chen Jingxuan stretched out his hand to signal.

"Several of us have pretty much the same idea!" General Wang looked at the few confidant generals who had reached an agreement with him just now, and then turned his head to Chen Jingxuan and analyzed in detail: "Now our army is facing a plague that may occur at any time, and the situation is extremely critical!" And there is an urgent shortage of suitable medicine in the city, and the only way is to transfer troops! Otherwise, judging from the current situation in the city, it will not be able to support our army for long at all! ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone began to whisper to each other, and suddenly there was a chaos. In a moment, a confidant general who had just been instructed by General Wang stood up from his seat and clasped his fists at Chen Jingxuan and agreed: "My lord, what General Wang said is right! We have just analyzed the current situation, although our army has sufficient food and grass, but for many days, it has been exposed to the sun again and again, and if there is no timely rain, there will be problems with the water source in the city! ”

"Huh? How can there be a problem with the water source? At the beginning of the year, wasn't our army ready? Chen Jingxuan suddenly frowned, staring at the general who spoke and asked in a deep voice.

"This..." The general was a little speechless, paused slightly, and watched everyone slowly twist their heads away, before he clenched his fists again and replied, "Returning to your lordship!" Yazhou is on a higher terrain, and the water source is not very sufficient, although our army has made preparations in advance, but it should have been done by the Fengjia army outside the city! Coupled with the drought that has been going on for several days, even the water in the city's wells has dropped a lot compared to the previous days! ”

After hearing this, Chen Jingxuan's brows furrowed even tighter, obviously he didn't expect to encounter a "natural disaster" at all, but he also believed that Lin Feng must have sent people to do something bad at the source of several tributaries outside the city, otherwise, Yazhou City would not suddenly encounter so many problems.

"General Wang, tell me about your plan!" After thinking for a long time, Chen Jingxuan pointed to General Wang, who was waiting on the side, and ordered in a low voice.

"Yes!" General Wang agreed, and then bowed his hands to the rest of the people in turn, and then introduced his plan in detail: "Everyone, I plan it this way!" Since the situation is more harmful to our army than good, it is better to give up the small advantages in front of us, and at the same time, we can also leave the big disadvantages behind, at least let us solve the difficulties in front of us and help us get out of the predicament! ”

"More harm than good?" Chen Jingxuan was puzzled, and without waiting for General Wang to finish speaking, he interrupted the other party's words and asked, "You tell me carefully, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, how do you say it?" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, the last general is about to say next!" Although he was very dissatisfied with Chen Jingxuan's sudden interruption of his speech, General Wang still had to force a smile and nodded in response: "Judging from the current situation, the only advantage of defending the city is to be able to resist the Feng family army outside the city!" In comparison, there are too many disadvantages! Next, I will introduce to you in detail, if there is anything wrong or insufficient, I will not hesitate to correct you! ”

Lest Chen Jingxuan couldn't wait to interrupt himself again, General Wang had to block the other party's mouth with words in advance, and after seeing everyone present smiling and nodding to him, General Wang made the final analysis: "First, if it goes on for a long time, the morale of our army will definitely fall, and the final impact will be on the 100,000 soldiers of our army, and even the soldiers in the rear will be affected to varying degrees, which is also the most serious drawback!" ”

"yes, yes!"

"General Wang is so right!"

"That's true!"

"Hey! It's really not a way to go on like this! ”

As soon as he arrived, the generals began to whisper in and discuss, but almost all of them agreed with General Wang's opinion. Seeing this, General Wang was very satisfied with everyone's performance, smiled slightly, and continued: "The second point, which is not inferior to the first point, is the plague that may be caused at any time! As he spoke, the smile on General Wang's face swept away, and he issued a warning to everyone with a serious face: "Once the plague breaks out, I believe that no one here can stop it!" At that time, it will definitely not only be a matter of morale, but the lives of 100,000 soldiers of our army, and even hundreds of thousands of people in the city! ”

"Whew." Hearing this, everyone gasped, and the cold air emitted by the ice stone slid down everyone's mouths, until the bottom of their hearts, and a chill awe-inspired. Although everyone has a simple understanding of the plague, they have never seen a large-scale epidemic, and at this time, hearing such a huge number of lives, no matter who it is, they have to re-examine the situation in front of them.

Even Chen Jingxuan, who was in the first seat, slowly lowered his head, although these were things he was extremely reluctant to hear or even think of, but at this time it was already imminent, and even said that it was serious, it was difficult to guarantee that the plague would not be infected in the next moment.

As the commander of the first army, Chen Jingxuan naturally couldn't show the slightest cowardice in front of everyone, but the facts in General Wang's mouth had to make him make another plan, and even according to General Wang's method, transfer troops and evacuate the crowd, so as to reduce the threat to the army.

"Third!" Without waiting for Chen Jingxuan to finish thinking, General Wang waved his hand at the rest of the people and spoke again: "The news of our army's exploration of horses has returned, and now outside Jiazhou City, the Fengjia army has established three camps, echoing each other from afar, if you keep waiting like this, I am afraid that the 30,000 soldiers in Jiazhou City will be the first to resist the pressure, and Luzhou, which is behind Jiazhou, is still unclear now, if Luzhou is stable, then Jiazhou will naturally not have any changes." But if on the contrary, Luzhou is unstable, Jiazhou will be in a dilemma, and at the same time, our army will also fall into a situation where there are tigers in front and wild wolves in the back! ”
