Chapter 281: Undercurrent (7)

"The minister is guilty!" This was the first thing Peng Chaodong said after raising his head and looking at Song Yuren. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Liao army broke through the border and entered the customs, and as Liaodong, he was inevitably responsible, Song Yuren did not hold him accountable, but Peng Chaodong felt very guilty.

After all, Song Yuren has always trusted Peng Chaodong very much, and among the feudal officials of this dynasty, Peng Chaodong is a feudal official who the emperor trusts him so much in addition to Shang Chuanren.

"It's not all about the guilt." Song Yuren did not say that Peng Chaodong was not guilty, at this time, if Song Yuren said that Peng Chaodong was not guilty, it was inevitable that there would be elements to exonerate Peng Chaodong, Peng Chaodong was the governor of Liaodong, and his main responsibility was to prevent and deal with the Liao army. The Liao army broke through the border and entered the customs, if Peng Chaodong was not guilty, it would be really high-sounding and unbelievable. Song Yuren did not say that Peng Chaodong was not guilty, but admitted that Peng Chaodong was guilty. However, while admitting Peng Chaodong's guilt, it also shows that the blame is not entirely on Peng Chaodong.

Peng Chaodong and his Qin army entered Jingshi City and were welcomed by the people of Jingshi City. Their savior has finally arrived. Although they had many doubts before, after the Qin army entered the capital city, they still felt that the Qin army was their savior.

――――――――

The Liao army camp outside the city of Jingshi.

In the royal tent of the Manshu people, the high-level leaders of the Liao State gathered in the royal tent, which was the king's tent and the highest command post of the Liao army.

Today the Liao army got two bad news, one news is undoubtedly from Jingshi City. Emperor Nanzhao didn't seem to suspect Peng Chaodong, and even personally went out of the city gate to welcome Peng Chaodong and his Qin army into the city. It seems that Song Yuren, the emperor of Southern Zhao, still trusts Peng Chaodong. did not suspect Peng Chaodong as expected by the Liao army.

The high-level leaders of the Liao State are very unwilling, is everything they have done these days in vain?

There is also a message from the direction of the Jinmen. The Liao army, which Achille had departed, was frustrated in an unknown village called Yangcun. Defeated, if it weren't for Gamunan seizing the command of this army at a critical time, making a correct judgment in a short period of time, and bringing the Liao army back in time, the Liao army would have suffered even greater losses.

At present, although the number of casualties of the Liao army sent out by Achiller is relatively large, the main force of this divided army still exists. Some of the casualties were heavier, and the top brass of the Liao State were also acceptable.

The main force of the army sent out still exists, but the commander of the army sent out seems to have been greatly stimulated. Achille fell into a state of madness because of the attack on the village of Yangcun. He almost led the whole army astray, and after returning Achille seemed to sober up a little.

Achiller was a big cut this time, and the attack on Yangcun village failed, and Achiller himself could not escape the blame. Secondly, Achiller made a crazy decision even more when the situation was already clear, which was even more wrong.

It's not that Achiller hasn't lost a battle since he joined the army, it's just that he has lost a relatively few battles. But it was the first time that Achiller had made such a big mistake in a battle.

Achiller's first time leading his troops to fight alone, he wanted to perform well in front of Wanyan Shengcong, but he turned out to be so embarrassed. Achiller couldn't help but worry about his future. After making such a big mistake, Wanyan Shengcong may not give him the opportunity to lead the troops alone in the future. Achiller thought.

However, it was useless for Achiller to worry about it now. Now the attention of all the high-level leaders of the Liao State is not on Achiller, and it is tantamount to pursuing the defeat of Achiller. In the face of the Qin army's affairs, Achille's defeat can only be regarded as a minor trivial.

"It seems that we underestimated Song Yuren." This is the first time that Wan Yan Shengcong has praised Song Yuren for Song Yuren, and before that, Wan Yan Shengcong had always had a contemptuous attitude towards Song Yuren, the emperor of Southern Zhao, and it can be said that Yan Shengcong was wearing colored glasses and looking at Song Yuren.

How good can the monarch of a declining country be? This is Wan Yan Shengcong's previous opinion.

Song Yuren can have such a mind and bearing towards his subordinates, which surprised Wanyan Shengcong at the same time, he also looked at Song Yuren with admiration.

"Your Majesty, we underestimated Song Yuren, it doesn't mean that we underestimated the ministers of Southern Zhao." Chen Yankai said that they did underestimate Song Yuren's mind and bearing, and Song Yuren chose to continue to trust Peng Chaodong, which is a thorny issue.

However, Song Yuren can continue to trust Peng Chaodong, which does not mean that all the courtiers of the Southern Zhao Dynasty can accept Peng Chaodong. Chen Yankai is not absolutely sure of Song Yuren, but he does have absolute confidence in Nanzhao's greatness, and he knows those Nanzhao ministers too well.

"What Chen Qing means is that we are not doing useless work?" Hearing Chen Yankai say this, Wanyan Shengcong's face relaxed, and he seemed to see hope.

Chen Yankai nodded and said: "It's like a sick person, you boil medicine and stew soup for him, after eating the decoction, the decoction may not be effective immediately, and the disease will be cured immediately,"

Wanyan Shengcong understood Chen Yankai's words and said, "Are you saying that the strategy we implemented against Peng Chaodong has not worked now, and it will work in the future?" Like a sick person drinking a decoction? ”

"Exactly." Chen Yankai said, "Sooner or later, Song Yuren will drink the decoction we poured for them today!" ”

Chen Yankai's tone was very affirmative.

"The walls of Jingshi City are strong and deep, and we are afraid that we will have to pay a great price to attack Jingshi City now." Wan Yan Shengcong said.

Chen Yankai was silent on the side, Chen Yankai had already guessed from the beginning that Wanyan Shengcong had no intention of attacking Jingshi City at all. Wanyan Shengcong is not a brainless person, and it should be clear that as far as the current situation is concerned, Wanyan Shengcong will definitely not make the decision to attack Jingshi City.

Liaodong has not yet stabilized, the Manshu people have not completely digested Liaodong, and the Manshu people have not yet occupied the entire territory of Liaodong. The Liaoning West Corridor and the Southeast Liaoning Peninsula also pose a great threat to the foundation of the Liao State.

It would be unwise to continue to attack and plunder cities without the existing occupation areas being digested, especially if it was an enclave.

The high-level leaders of the Liao State also heard the implication of Wanyan Shengcong's words: Wanyan Shengcong would not attack Jingshi City.

The Liao soldiers showed a high period of time for the assault on the Jingshi City. Of all the siege battles that the Liao army had experienced, which siege battle would be more exciting than the attack on Jingshi City? Jingshi City is the capital of Great Zhao!

"If you give up attacking Jingshi City, I'm afraid it will hurt the soldiers' desire to fight." A high-ranking Liao State voiced his concerns.

This was the first time that the Liao army fought deep into the hinterland of Zhao, and the Liao army has been able to maintain high morale since the beginning of the war, which is related to the Liao army's desire to attack cities and seize land. Once the attack on Jingshi City is abandoned, it will deal a great blow to the morale of the Liao army's soldiers. (To be continued.) )
