Chapter 820 is full of joy and sorrow

Hearing Han Zhitong's praise for Leng Yan, Wang Zhengwen felt slightly uncomfortable in his heart, and turned to stare at the cold autumn night with mixed feelings.

In the first two battles, the autumn cold night played the role of a pioneer and a firefighter, and made contributions to the coalition army.

But if it is said that the cold autumn night is a rising star in the south, Wang Zhengwen feels that Han Zhitong's words are suspected of exaggeration and do not match the truth.

As one of the four lieutenant generals under his command, Qiu Lengye has been fighting with him in the north and south for many years, can't he see the military talent of the other party?

At this moment, Han Zhitong attaches great importance to the cold autumn night, does it mean that he has no knowledge of people in disguise?

However, the current situation is difficult, but he can't refute Han Zhitong, let alone secretly squeeze out Qiu Lengye, after all, Qiu Lengye seems to have proposed an effective way to restrain the cavalry.

Everyone's attention is focused on Qiu Lengye, if he deliberately targets Qiu Lengye, it will not only cause an uproar, but also form a situation where he will lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.

On the contrary, he fell into the reputation of having a small belly and chicken intestines, and was despised and looked down upon by the generals!

He said in a light tone: "General Qiu, if you have any good suggestions, you don't need to hide it, just say it all, my Great Wu disciples are proud of you!" ”

At this moment, the attention of the crowd was all focused on the autumn cold night, and he suddenly felt a huge pressure on his shoulders, and he was a young general, just putting forward his own opinions, but according to the current situation, things seemed to be developing beyond his expectations.

Qiu Lengye looked up at Wang Zhengwen, then looked at Han Zhitong, coughed lightly, and said attentively: "As we all know, Emperor Yan's use of troops is extraordinary, often unpredictable, it is difficult for any general to make targeted deployments, the coalition army stepped into Jiangbei, fought against the Yan army, the tactics were too passive, step-by-step, and were often led by the nose by the Yan army, resulting in passive operations everywhere!"

The last general believes that if the coalition forces want to win the battle, they must also win by surprise, otherwise, I am afraid that they will be passive everywhere, and now, the last general feels that the general of Chu State Yue Yunshan led the Xuanjia soldiers to the border of Yan and Song, which is a sword to go sideways.

If the Yan and Song armies were unaware, they would inevitably attack by surprise and achieve unexpected results, and we could follow suit. ”

Autumn cold night advice, to sum up is very simple, tactics must be flexible, unique, and have their own unique tactics.

Hearing this, Chen Dongyu felt that the autumn cold night suggestion was indeed a little different, and he couldn't help but say with a little pride: "General Yue is the third general of the Chu State, and his strength should not be underestimated. ”

Chen Dongyu led the army to fight against the Yan army twice, both times were hit hard, and he hated the Yan army in his heart, and tried to take revenge, but there was no suitable way to take revenge, only An Sheng was depressed.

At this moment, hearing Qiu Lengye's suggestion, the coalition seemed to have a way to win, and his inner fighting spirit was burned again, directly ignoring the previous defeat, becoming complacent, and preparing to personally lead the Xuanjia soldiers to fight on the battlefield again.

"General Chen, Hugh has to get carried away, wait for General Yue's good news to come back, at present, we need to continue to discuss General Qiu's tactics, the old man thinks that General Qiu's proposal is really good, in the future, the coalition forces cannot continue to revolve around the Yan Legion!" Han Zhitong stopped Chen Dongyu from speaking, even though he believed that Yue Yunshan would win, but he didn't receive the good news from Chen Dongyu, he didn't dare to say more.

After all, fighting the Yan army twice and losing both times was enough to prove the strength of the Yan army, although he believed that Yue Yunshan would win, he did not dare to show full confidence.

After pondering for a long time, Han Zhitong continued: "At present, all the Yan army has withdrawn to Guangling City, and in addition, Chen Guo's march into Yan State will inevitably divide the strength of the Yan army, at that time, the number of Yan troops blocking us will be greatly reduced, our reinforcements will arrive, the strength of both sides will be eliminated, and the situation will be favorable to us, perhaps, at that time, it will be the coalition army and the Yan army to fight again, what do you think?" ”

The Yan army is strong, and the military strength is continuously dispersed, which makes the strength of the Yan army imperceptibly weakened, on the contrary, the strength of the coalition army is growing, and the advantage in numbers may crush the Yan army, so Han Zhitong feels that it is time to take revenge.

Zhang Yuting, Wang Zhengwen, the two generals were speechless, if things were described to the cold night of autumn, Han Zhitong, the battlefield situation seemed to be beginning to favor the coalition forces, therefore, they supported the continuation of the Northern Expedition.

It must be known that in the past few months, Wu Yue has lost a very large number of troops in Yan State, which has caused the domestic public voice to boil, and many people have begun to protest against continuing to go north to attack Yan.

If you don't take revenge, wouldn't the hundreds of thousands of Wu Yue's children who died in Yan Kingdom die tragically in vain, how can they calm the anger of the people when they return to China, and how should they explain to the emperor.

However, the two generals Wen Zhiming and Wu Jieshao did not want to continue the fierce battle, at least, until they were sure that the war could be won, they would not easily lead their troops to fight.

Since the Northern Expedition, the military consumption of the two countries has been too serious, the 100,000 troops of the Shu army have almost all been exhausted, and there has been no news from the hinterland of the Western Front.

This war, instead of opening up territory for Shu, on the contrary, made Shu fall into the quagmire of war.

Cai Guo is in a bad situation, Shiyan City battle, more than 100,000 Cai troops were severely damaged and captured by the Yan army, not long ago in the war, Cai Jun was annihilated 780,000, two battles, Cai Guo more than 200,000 elite troops were annihilated.

Seriously depleting the vitality of Shu State, Emperor Shu planned to stop the war and preserve his strength, so as not to encounter the Yan army in the future and not be able to defeat the enemy.

Compared with Wu Yue, Cai's strength was at the bottom among the southern princes, and the military consumption was too much, and Cai's financial resources could not afford it.

In addition, when the Yan State was strong, the five southern countries united and united to fight the Yan State in the north, but for a long time, there were also many contradictions among the southern princes.

When the invasion of Yan is over, the strength of any country in the Northern Expedition is too weakened, and in the future, it may become the target of the remaining four countries to conquer and invade!

Therefore, Emperor Cai gradually retreated and prepared to preserve his strength.

lest the Northern Expedition fail, Cai Guo will lose his troops and generals, and it may become a meal for the southern princes.

Without much hesitation, Wen Zhiming stood up and said with a respectful expression: "General Han, the arrival of reinforcements has restored the morale of the coalition forces, and General Qiu's suggestion seems to be effective, but before a victory, Shu refuses to fight against the Yan army again, and if the coalition forces continue to fail, Shu will consider withdrawing from the battle of Yan." ”

"That's right, Cai's army must also take the initiative to send troops after the coalition forces win." Wu Jieshao said categorically, before, he and Wen Zhiming had not discussed, however, the other party suddenly proposed, he felt that it was necessary to actively support the other party, so that the two stood on the same front.

The generals of Wu Yue, Shu and Cai Siguo had diametrically opposite attitudes towards the next war, which made the atmosphere in the tent become grim.

The coalition has been defeated in a row, and if everyone shows signs of division again, there will be no need for the war to continue.

At this moment, Han Zhitong's face condensed, and he asked sharply: "General Wen, General Wu, are your words meant by the kings of the two countries, and do you dare to be responsible for the consequences?" ”

Wen Zhiming did not hesitate and said categorically: "Don't worry, general, it is the emperor's will, otherwise I don't dare to bring it up." ”

"Cai Guo is not like Wu Yue Chu, the power is strong, can withstand attrition, Cai Guo's strength is limited, the defeat of Shiyan City, Cai's army has suffered a lot of losses, before, it lost seventy or eighty thousand troops, although I dare not say that it has shaken the foundation of Cai Guo, but continue to fight hard, if there is no chance of victory, huge casualties, it will cause Cai Guo to boil, and it will be difficult for the emperor to do." Wu Jieshao's face was serious, and he specially explained Cai Guo's situation to Han Zhitong and others.

Hearing the words of Wen Zhiming, Wu Jieshao, Han Zhitong, Zhang Yuting, Wang Zhengwen and others became ugly, the five countries invaded Yan, and the withdrawal of any country would cause a lot of changes.

It means that the idea of continuing to go north just now may be stranded for the time being, and more importantly, according to the meaning of the generals of Cai and Shu, Wu Yue and Chu must be the first to defeat the Yan army, so that Cai Yuejun can participate again, otherwise, the five countries will completely fail to attack Yan.

This kind of proposal will make the situation of the three kingdoms of Wu, Yue and Chu very difficult, and it will definitely cost more to achieve victory.

Determining the thoughts of the two, Han Zhitong's face became inadequate to describe, and he wanted to be angry and teach Wu Jieshao and Wen Zhiming a hard lesson, and give the two of them a bad horse.

However, when the atmosphere in the tent was tense, a guard suddenly broke in outside the barracks, hurriedly walked up to Han Zhitong, and muttered softly: "General, news is coming from the Eastern Front!" ”

Hearing this, Han Zhitong's angry cheeks showed a slight smile, glanced at Wu Jieshao and Wen Zhiming, and said loudly: "There is no need to hide it, since it is news from the Eastern Front, Dasheng will read it out to improve the morale of the coalition army." ”

The news of the Eastern Front is good news, and the two generals of Wu and Wen are not preparing to withdraw their troops, at this time, they happened to use the good news of the Eastern Front to hit the arrogance of the two.

"General!" The guard did not read it out directly, but instead called out to Han Zhitong gently.

Han Zhitong didn't pay attention to the attitude of the guards, he was slightly angry, and said coldly: "Since it is good news, read it out quickly, why are you cowering, do you want to be dealt with by military law?" ”

At this time, the guard's face turned red, and under the threat of Han Zhitong, he stammered: "General, outside the camp tent, a Xuanjia soldier on the eastern front has returned, and informed him that the 150,000 Xuanjia soldiers led by General Yue Yunshan were unexpectedly annihilated by the Yan State Blade Soldiers two days ago, and the 150,000 troops suffered heavy casualties, and the rest were all captured by the Yan army!" ”

"What about people?" Hearing this, Han Zhitong asked impatiently.

The guard lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "After a long journey, I am tired and die outside the handsome tent!" ”

"What?" Han Zhitong shouted, only feeling that things were too incredible, Yue Yunshan led 150,000 Xuanjia soldiers and quietly went north, it was something that the gods didn't know, how could they expose their whereabouts.
