Destroy the Shen Kingdom?

The rest of the generals were also moved, and they all looked at Yang Mu, although they didn't say anything, but the look in their eyes showed their attitude.

"You're right, I've also been moved...... Yang Mu pondered for a while, and then said: "However, you yourself said that this is an unrighteous act...... Right now, Shen Guo can't be destroyed! ”

"Why?" Qu Yong frowned: "Please forgive the last general, it is useless to keep this Shen Kingdom, we took such a big risk and rushed to the rescue with all the hard work, and we got 200,000 taels of silver and a few promises, it is simply not worth it......"

"That's enough." Yang Mu interrupted him: "Are you the emperor or am I the emperor?" Listen to yours or to me? ”

"The last general will not dare!" Qu Yong was shocked and quickly knelt on the ground: "The last general lost his words, please forgive your majesty!" ”

The rest of the generals next to him also bowed their heads.

Yang Mu glanced at them, sighed secretly in his heart, and said: "Your loyalty is nothing more than wanting to expand the territory, but don't forget what our original intention is, we are here to aid Shen Guo, if there is a dispute between the two countries at this time, Zheng Guo will definitely reap the benefits." Think about it, we can't sit idly by and watch Zheng Guo annex Shen Guo, so Zheng Guo can't sit back and watch us annex Shen Guo...... Once we destroy Shen Guo and break the status quo, it will inevitably pose a huge threat to Zheng Guo, and the two countries will inevitably face it head-on. ”

"However, I missed this opportunity...... Wei Zhongquan stopped talking.

"Yes, it's a shame to miss this opportunity." Yang Mu nodded and said, "But there is no way." Although Zheng Guo was defeated, there are still 20,000 elites in the country, plus the peasant soldiers can reach 80,000, and they can even be recruited more at any time, and our troops are less than half of others, and the difference in strength is huge, even the defense is not enough, even if we swallow Shen Guo, we are making wedding clothes for others. ”

"Your Majesty is right, it's me who is short-sighted." Wei Zhongquan sighed, quite regretful.

The rest of the generals also nodded, and after being analyzed by Yang Muyi, they also felt that it was very reasonable, so they dispelled this idea one after another.

In fact, Yang Mu also felt regretful, it was a pity that it was the dream of every emperor to expand his territory, even he was no exception.

However, he saw farther and had more concerns than others.

He thought of the Sun-Liu alliance in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the Sun-Wu group's sneak attack on Jingzhou, which directly led to the breakdown of the alliance and the outbreak of the Battle of Yiling, which had a significant impact on the pattern of the entire world.

The current Shen State and Cang State are actually in such a situation, even if one side is no longer good, it must not be annexed, so that it will not pose a direct threat to the Zheng State in the north, avoid it from attacking with the strength of the whole country, and also preserve its own strength to the greatest extent and win development time.

After discussing for a while, the generals refocused their attention on the battle.

At present, Zheng Han led the remnants of the defeated army to be stationed ten miles away, echoing Pingxiang City and Shanquan City in the north.

The reason why it is said to be 5,000 instead of 3,000 is because when attacking the city, nearly 2,000 soldiers were cruising around the city, supervising the movement in the city, so they did not participate in the siege, and the losses of this part of the people were very small, and the total of 3,000 soldiers who fled was more than 5,000 people.

Coupled with the soldiers of Pingxiang City, Shanquan City, and Jiangshan City, it can reach about 10,000.

Of the 40,000 soldiers, only 10,000 remained, and it has to be said that it was indeed a fiasco.

Yang Mu pointed to the map with his hand, and after a long time, he said: "General Wei, you can repair a letter for me, send it to the Zheng army camp early tomorrow morning, and invite Zheng Han to be on the edge of the woods outside the city for a while." ”

Wei Zhongquan was taken aback: "Your Majesty wants to meet with Zheng Han?" This...... It's also too dangerous. ”

"No, no." Yang Mu shook his head: "I don't want to face him, I just want to discuss some things." As the so-called battle and strategy, let you open your eyes tomorrow and see how I can fight without blood, and let Zheng Han obediently hand over Jiangshan City! ”

……

Early in the morning of the second day, I saw more than a dozen chariots coming from a distance, billowing smoke and dust, and hunting with flags.

Zheng Han sat on the chariot and looked at the camp in the distance, his eyes full of resentment.

Originally, it was the camp of the Zheng army, which had been operating hard for more than ten days, and there were countless grains and grasses, but because of a big defeat, it was occupied by the hateful Cangguo army.

After this defeat, his situation in Zheng will be extremely difficult, and the momentum that was originally in full swing will inevitably suffer a heavy setback.

"One day, this prince will take this big camp back and capture the little emperor alive to vent his anger!" Zheng Han gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and swore secretly.

It was also at this time that Yang Mu also rode a horse, escorted by a group of guards, arrived at the edge of the grove, spread out a desk, and slowly drank a little wine.

When the commanders of the two armies met, the atmosphere was naturally tense, but fortunately, both sides maintained restraint and sat opposite each other at a distance of ten zhang.

Zheng Han snorted coldly: "Emperor Cangguo, if you invite someone out, shouldn't it be just a bar." If so, I will not accompany you! ”

As he spoke, he got up and was about to leave.

"Huh." Yang Mu laughed heartily: "The second prince left this time, his back was dashing, and he didn't take a cloud with him...... But have you ever thought about it, the lives of the more than 3,000 soldiers who are far away in Jiangshan City are not guaranteed. ”

Zheng Han paused and sneered: "Don't want to trick me, your Cangguo soldiers are lightly armed, and the field battle is acceptable, but if you want to attack the city, it is tantamount to a fool's dream...... If you want to find death, just go, this prince will not stop you. ”

"Hahaha!" Yang Mu laughed, as if he had heard some big joke: "Who told you that I was going to attack the city?" With my wisdom, even if I don't attack the city, it will not be difficult to take Jiangshan City...... Think about it, Jiangshan City has been isolated, it is impossible to close the city for a long time, if I send some civilians to infiltrate it every day, after ten days and half a month, it will be enough to meet the inside and the outside. ”

"Hmph, the guard of Jiangshan City is a 3,000-strong general under my command, he is cautious in his use of troops and good at defense, if you mix in a few, it's okay, a few thousand soldiers...... Hehe, idiot dreams. Zheng Han was very disdainful, as if he had heard some big joke.

"Huh? I didn't say I'd let a few thousand soldiers into the city. With the bravery of our Cangguo soldiers, three or four hundred people are enough to deal with your three thousand rabble. ”

Four hundred?

At this moment, not only Zheng Han despised it in his heart, but even the guards around Zheng Han sneered again and again.

Three or four hundred people win three thousand?

What are you bragging?

Do you really think that you will fly into the sky after winning a surprise attack?

Three thousand rabble...... One day you'll know what Jeongkook Elite is!

After a short period of stunned, Zheng Han finally couldn't help it: "Heh...... What a big breath, the prince wants to see it, you Cangguo is capable. ”
