Chapter 40: The Battle of Chengdu (5)

Shi Yuan saw that everyone including Liu Bei immediately looked at him, and he didn't have the slightest panic, and after straightening his clothes, he stood up and said to everyone:

"Filial piety is the difference between words, only know one and don't know the other. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Now that our army is on an expedition to Xichuan, although we have obtained most of Xichuan, we have not stayed in Xichuan for a long time after all, less than two years, which is not comparable with Liu Zhang, who has been in Xichuan for decades. After our army obtained Xichuan, because they were very lenient to the local people, these people would be attached to us, but this was only a superficial dependence, in fact, these people still thought about their lord Liu Zhang in their hearts. If we can't capture Chengdu in a short time, then the people in the areas we have occupied will think, Liu Bei may not be able to take Chengdu, so that the people in these areas will have riots, if we really come to that time we will face internal and external difficulties, the internal needs to appease the people in the occupied land, and the external needs to face the enemies in Chengdu, in this case, if you want to capture Chengdu and take the entire Xichuan, it is not the difficulty you are facing now, the difficulties at that time are much greater than now! And you must know that Liu Zhang himself is a lord who loves the people, and he is very loved by the people of Xichuan.

If we don't attack the city, then we will have to fight a protracted war with Chengdu, which is absolutely unfavorable to us, you must know that the grain and grass in Chengdu are enough for them to eat for a year, but ours should be a lot different from theirs! So from this point of view, we should also take Chengdu City as soon as possible.

The reason why the people in Chengdu will help Liu Zhang's soldiers defend the city is because they know that Liu Zhang is a lord who loves the people, although our lord's love for the people is far above it, but many of the people in Chengdu do not know, and they are more willing to believe in a person they know and understand to be their lord. After we conquer Chengdu, the lord can issue some edicts that are beneficial to the people, so that the people in the city know that their new lord is also a lord who loves the people like a son, so that the impact on the name of the lord's benevolence and righteousness will be minimal! ”

After Shi Yuan finished speaking, he faced the lord and said again:

"My lord, for the sake of today's plan, we should immediately order the soldiers to prepare for battle, and tomorrow under the leadership of the generals, we will take turns to launch an uninterrupted attack on Chengdu."

After Shi Yuan finished speaking, he was silent, lowered his hands and put them on his sides, and stood there motionless. Fa Zheng was probably persuaded by Shi Yuan's words at this time, and he was also standing there, but looking at his posture, it seemed that he wanted to say something more, but it was just as if he didn't say a word after all.

However, at this time, the generals below were happy, and Zhang Fei, who had only listened, said happily at this time:

"Haha, the military advisor and I have the same idea, look at it, what I Lao Zhang said last time was right!" Zhang Fei saw that Liu Bei was still thinking. hurriedly said: "Big brother, what else do you want, the military advisors have said so, then hurry up and give the order to attack the city tomorrow!" ”

Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and other generals next to him also nodded again and again, and they all felt that what the military advisor said was right.

Liu Bei actually made up his mind in his heart after listening to Shi Yuan's words, but he still waited for a while to see what the reactions of the generals and strategists below were, and after seeing the reactions of several generals and filial piety, Liu Bei stood up at this time and said:

"Since the military division and all the generals have agreed to attack Chengdu, then I don't have any opinion, but there is one point, tomorrow's generals must fight fiercely according to what the military division said in tomorrow's siege battle. Specific combat arrangements can be arranged by military divisions. ”

After Shi Yuan heard the lord's words, he immediately responded and obeyed.

Just as Shi Yuan was about to issue an order, General Ma Chao, who had been sitting next to Liu Bei, suddenly stood up at this time, came to Liu Bei and said:

"The minister Ma Chao has just returned to the lord, and he has not made any merits, so I implore the lord and the military advisor to send me and my soldiers into battle tomorrow to kill the enemy."

After Ma Chao finished speaking, Liu Bei looked at Ma Chao, and then looked at Shi Yuan, only to see Shi Yuan nodding to the lord at this time, signaling the lord to agree to General Ma Chao's request, Liu Bei saw what Shi Yuan meant, and said to General Ma Chao:

"When General Ma Chao first arrived in our army, he asked to go to the battlefield regardless of fatigue, and I was very pleased. General Ma Chao, you will lead your subordinate soldiers to the battlefield tomorrow, but everything is subject to the transfer of the military division. ”

When the sergeant yuan released the combat deployment of tomorrow's generals, he only heard the sergeant yuan say:

"Tomorrow the whole army will concentrate on attacking the north gate and east gate of Chengdu, General Zhang Fei, General Zhao Yun, Liu Feng and General Guan Ping will lead the army and horses to attack the north gate, General Zhao Yun, General Ma Chao, and General Huang Lao will lead the troops and horses to attack the east gate, each general will lead more than 10,000 troops, and launch an attack on Chengdu on time tomorrow morning, remember that each general will lead the troops and horses of the headquarters to continue to attack for an hour, and then another general will lead the army to attack, and each general will attack for an hour, and then replace the people on the attack of each general, and use wheel warfare, Launched an attack on Chengdu without interruption for a moment. In addition, please lead the rest of the soldiers and horses to wait, if any general suffers heavy casualties, the lord will lead the army to replace the general. Our purpose tomorrow is to beat Liu Zhang out of fear, so that he will not dare to have the idea of fighting our army again. ”

After receiving the order, the generals hurried to their respective barracks to prepare. At this time in the military tent, there were still the lord, Shi Yuan, Li Hui, Fa Zheng and others, Shi Yuan looked around at this time, and then said to the lord:

"Lord, why didn't you see Zhang Ren and the other three generals?"

"Military division, when we came to attack Chengdu, Zhang Ren and the other three generals came to the lord and begged the lord not to take them with him when he attacked Chengdu, because they were Xichuan generals, and it was necessary to face Liu Zhang and others after coming to Chengdu, which was not reasonable and reasonable, so the lord agreed to their plea, and did not bring them with him this time." After Shi Yuan finished speaking, Xiao Zhi next to him hurriedly said to Shi Yuan.

After Shi Yuan listened, he nodded and stopped talking. After that, Liu Bei inquired in detail about Shi Yuan and Li Hui on the road, and everyone dispersed.

But said that after Ma Chao arrived at the barracks, the deputy generals in the camp would come to their military tents to discuss the battle tomorrow, Ma Yunlu also hurried over after hearing it, and just walked into the military tent, he shouted at Ma Chao in a hurry:

"Big brother, you are partial, you look down on women."

Ma Chao was also stunned when he heard his sister-in-law say this, he raised his head to look at his sister-in-law, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but the deputy generals and partial generals in the military tent couldn't control their laughter at this time, and some of them actually burst out laughing.

"What do you mean by that? When did I look down on women as an older brother? Ma Chao looked at Ma Yunlu and said.

"Big brother, you just look down on women, otherwise why didn't you call me when you talked about tomorrow's battle in the military tent? Could it be that my martial arts are poor, or is it because of something? Otherwise, let's go out and compete to see who is better. ”

When the people in the military tent heard Ma Yunlu's words, they all shouted happily, and they only heard the applause one by one.

"Girl! You have thought too much, you must know that fighting is our man's business, and you should not go to war as a woman. ”

"Big brother, you just look down on women, let's go out and compare to see who is powerful!"

"No, no. I can't beat my sister. Ma Chao hurriedly shook his hand and said.

"Then you will let me fight with you tomorrow!"

"No, no!"

"Big brother, you bully people." Ma Yunlu stomped his feet and said, revealing his daughter's demeanor at this moment.

"I must go to the battlefield tomorrow, along the way, my eldest brother asked me to stay in the rear to guard this city and that pass, this time I will never listen to my eldest brother again, hum!" After Ma Yunlu finished speaking, he went straight to a place to sit down, seeing if she was ready to go out.

Ma Chao didn't have anything to do at this time, so he finally had to agree to his sister-in-law's request, and then continue to talk to the generals about tomorrow's battle in the military tent. Ma Yunlu was very happy when he saw his eldest brother agree, and then participated in the discussion.
