Although the enemy retreated, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao's camp tents were still brightly lit. Well...... Yes, the two of them live together, in their words, a camp can live several soldiers, how can it not accommodate the two of them?

In the tent, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao looked at each other with serious expressions, and only after a long time did Zhao Yun speak, "It seems that the success over the years has made us seem to have forgotten, and now we are no longer pawns who follow the lord and only need to obey orders, but are the commanders who are expected by the lord to lead an army with heavy responsibilities." ”

"Yes, it's a little too smooth, during this time, my mind is full of trying to capture Linjin as soon as possible, so as to prove my ability......" Zhang Liao also sighed when he heard this.

The two of you are talking about each other, and they keep talking about their own problems, obviously, today's night attack has poured cold water on these two young people. Although it did not extinguish their ambition, it also suppressed their arrogance.

How can a teenager not be frivolous? Not to mention Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, who had a smooth journey. In fact, if it weren't for their carelessness, how would Cheng Yi have a chance to sneak attack? You must know that according to Li Yi's requirements, even if he has an absolute advantage, the soldiers in charge of the night vigil cannot be less than fifty. And the secret outpost outside the camp could not be less than ten people. But apparently, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao did not do it.

The two young people who blamed themselves seemed to be unable to sleep tonight, and the same was true for Zuo Fengyi Duan Xuan. Obviously, compared to Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, who were just carelessly attacked, but still killed the enemy generals, Duan Xuan, who broke Chengyi, undoubtedly had more headaches.

On the one hand, it is natural that there is a headache how to explain this matter to Ma Teng, just like the one mentioned earlier, no matter what, Cheng Yi is Ma Teng's descendant, and he died within two days......

Although he had already dissuaded him, although it was Na Chengyi who stole out of the city without permission, as the main general, if Ma Teng wanted to find trouble with Duan Xuan, how could there be no reason?

The night was sleepless, but although Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao blamed themselves for the night, they still tried to attack the city again the next morning. After all, although they were carelessly attacked, the result was that the enemy lost their troops, and in this case, they must attack and test it.

However, in the face of Duan Xuan's guard, after trying for more than an hour, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao had no choice but to order Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, except for throwing a pile of corpses and spending a lot of arrows and flying stones, nothing was achieved. Subsequently, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao discussed for a while, then stopped attacking the city, patiently waiting for Gao Shun's arrival, and at the same time discussing countermeasures.

A few days later.

"I see...... Gao Shun nodded and said with relief after listening to Zhao Yun tell about the situation during this time, "Zilong, Wenyuan, you don't have to blame yourself too much, after all, the final result is good~ As long as you remember the lord's teachings in the past, you can do it in the future." ”

After a pause, Gao Shun said again, "But it's also true that you didn't send enough soldiers to keep vigil according to the lord's order......" Gao Shun said here and said with a deep groan, "Zilong and Wen Yuan have dereliction of duty, but they also have the merit of retreating from the enemy, especially Wen Yuan, and the enemy general Cheng Yi who also killed." Well...... The merits and demerits are offset, pay attention next time. ”

"Xie Fujun!" Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao hurriedly thanked them when they heard this, and at the same time, they finally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. They are really worried about Gao Shun because they have known each other for many years and do not intend to punish them. If that's the case, their hearts really don't want to go. Although it has not been sent now, the merits and demerits are offset by it, but it can also make them feel a little at ease.

After disposing of this matter, Gao Shun glanced around at the generals, and then said with a solemn expression, "I already know the things here, so I summoned you this time to ask you what you think?" You can speak your mind without worrying about making a mistake. ”

This was Li Yi's favorite rhetoric in the past, and he would ask everyone at almost every pre-war meeting, even if they couldn't come up with any ideas, Li Yi had been encouraging them. And this trick was almost copied by Lu Bu and others. Perhaps, this is the so-called impact, right?

Hearing this, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao glanced at each other and nodded slightly, and then Zhao Yun said respectfully, "Fujun, the lower official has an idea. ”

"Zilong, let's talk about it." Gao Shun nodded when he heard this.

"Fujun, the defenders of Linjin City have about 50,000 people, the city wall is high and thick, and it is close to Luoshui, plus the general who defends the city is Duan Xuan, a famous general in Liangzhou, if you want to capture it, I am afraid that there will be a lot of losses. Therefore, during this time, Xia Guan discussed with Wen Yuan, and felt that it was better to leave a force to contain the defenders of Linjin City, and the rest of the people were divided into two routes, all the way north from the waterway to attack the three cities of Suyi, Ya, and Pinyang in the north of Zuo Feng Yi! On the other hand, it was still through the waterway to attack Chongquan in the west of Linjin. Zhao Yun said in a deep voice.

"As long as these four cities are taken, the road to the entire west of Linjin can be blocked, and the troops remaining in Linjin only need to send a force to guard the waterway between Linjin and Huayin, and Linjin will become a lonely city!" After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Liao with his eyes.

Seeing this, Zhang Liao followed closely and said, "But there is a problem with this method, that is, if Hu Zhen of Huayin leads the army north, the troops left behind in Linjin will be very dangerous. Moreover, once Chang'an sends troops to support, it will be difficult to take Chongquan. ”

"Hmm......" Gao Shun pondered when he heard this, and at the same time turned his head to look at Wei Yue, Fan Chou and the others and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Xiaguan agreed with Zhang County's words, Suyi and other four cities are just ordinary small cities, and the number of defenders is not large, so it is not difficult to capture them. But how to deal with the enemy's reinforcements is a problem. Fan Chou was the first to speak.

As soon as the words fell, Wei Yue and the others also agreed.

"Hmm...... That's right, and if you want to attack these four cities by water, it's impossible to hide from the defenders of Linjin City......" Gao Shun groaned.

After thinking about it, Gao Shun looked around at everyone and said, "In this way, Guangchao, Zhengshou, and Yuanda, each of you will take two hundred people and secretly leave the camp tonight to find a hidden place to build a ship." In addition, people were sent to Hongnong, Huayin, and Chang'an to inquire about intelligence. ”

"No!"

"Zilong, Wen Yuan, you two take me to a place where I can observe the city defense of Linjin City." Gao Shun said to Zhao Yun and the others again.

"No!"

And on the other side.

"Go, send this letter to Chang'an, just say that the enemy army is strong, and I hope to send troops to support!" Duan Xuan looked at the guards in front of him and said in a deep voice.

"No!"

It's just that just as he was about to leave, Duan Xuan suddenly stopped him again, "Take some more people and let them go to Chang'an secretly to see if there is a chance to bring my family out." ”

Hearing this, the guard was stunned, but quickly reacted, and left with a firm look in his eyes.
