In the face of Li Zhen's provocation, Heng Xinyuan did not show dissatisfaction, he just looked at Li Zhen with a calm expression: "I know why you are dissatisfied with me, but because I am young." ”

"That's not all! General, your strategy is wrong, although the terrain of Liangzhou is suitable for defense, but the current conditions do not give us a chance to defend at all...... Do you see how much grain is left in Liangzhou now? If this development continues, I am afraid that before the enemy army attacks the city on a large scale, our Liangzhou will all starve to death! ”

I have to say that although this Li Zhen is a little impulsive and reckless, his brain is still relatively clear.

Heng Xinyuan has always been very patient with talents, so he followed Li Zhen's words and asked, "Then can you tell me about your strategy?" ”

"What strategy do I have for fighting, isn't that all there is to it? It's just that you lose and I win! If the country dares to besiege the city, then we will fight them, wasn't there a broken Western Chu overlord in ancient times? Our soldiers in Liangzhou can too! ”

Li Zhen's words were quite inflammatory, and everyone present raised their weapons and cheered.

"Vice Admiral Li is right, we can!"

"That's right, General Heng, why don't you give the order to go to war?"

"Rather than being besieged to death, it is better to fight against the water, at least there is a glimmer of hope, right? If we don't come out of the city all the time, I'm afraid we won't be able to support it for even half a month! ”

Heng Xinyuan pondered for a moment, and slowly chose to shake his head in the expectant eyes of everyone.

He can understand the current mood of the soldiers, in the crisis situation of sitting in the city of sorrow, people are indeed easy to lose their minds because of a thought, Heng Xinyuan, as the commander of the army, it is necessary to turn them around from the wrong idea. The first person who needs to be corrected is Li Zhen, who took the lead in making trouble.

"I can understand Vice General Li's mood now, but the situation in Liangzhou is really not good."

Li Zhen glared at Heng Xinyuan in annoyance: "General, you are too cowardly!" ”

He was obviously insulting Heng Xinyuan, but the person concerned didn't have the heart to take the words to heart at all, his expression was very calm for a long time, and he even nodded and took the initiative to admit: "I'm really afraid, I'm afraid that the army will be defeated after the battle, I'm afraid that Liangzhou City will be breached, I'm afraid that the soldiers and people will lose their homes." Desperate may seem difficult, but it is actually very easy, after all, there is only one way, and that is death. ”

"How does the general know that there is only one way for us to lose a war with the enemy?"

"The enemy army has been prepared for a long time, their number is several times that of the defenders, and they are well-equipped and well-supplied, and those people are as fierce as tigers under the leadership of Qi Yu, how can the soldiers match them? Even with the tactics of crowds, they can completely wipe out our army. ”

Everyone present quieted down, including Li Zhen, who was gradually recovering from drunkenness.

He admitted that Heng Xinyuan's words were very reasonable, but he was unwilling to keep guarding Liangzhou City and not going out, he was hot, and he couldn't stand such a wretch!

"But we can't support it if we don't fight, there is not much food left in Liangzhou City! But the reinforcements don't know when they will arrive! ”

Heng Xinyuan raised his face again, this time his eyes were a little more determined: "Reinforcements are already on the way." ”

In just one sentence, it set off waves in the hearts of the soldiers, almost no one was not surprised, everyone looked at Heng Xinyuan with bright eyes, especially Li Zhen, who made the most trouble just now, was even more excited: "General, what you said is true?" ”

"Naturally, I don't have to cheat."

After Heng Xinyuan's words were released, there were bursts of cheers in the barracks, as if people who had been trapped in the dark for a long time suddenly saw the sun, and the soldiers rushed to tell each other and spread the news throughout the barracks.

Heng Xinyuan silently felt this atmosphere, and his mood was extremely complicated.

In fact, he didn't receive any news about the reinforcements, and the current Liangzhou City can be said to be surrounded by water, let alone news, even a bird can't fly out easily, Heng Xinyuan dared to say this kind of thing, in addition to his trust in Wan Bingyu and Yongzhou Liu Qingqing, there was also a guess in his heart.

Of course, it is impossible for Heng Xinyuan to tell the news that there is no source.

Li Zhen, who made a lot of trouble just now, saw Hope, and directly left the idea of going against Heng Xinyuan.

It turned out that General Heng had been guarding the city because he had a plan in his heart!

This idea is really not wrong, after all, under the premise of having reinforcements on the way, the first thing they should do is to reduce casualties as much as possible. As long as he can win the battle, as long as he can see hope, Li Zhen is still very calm!

Li Zhen, who realized that he had done something wrong just now, hurriedly ran to Heng Xinyuan and knelt down on one knee with a plop: "The last general just collided with the general, and I hope the general will not be surprised!" ”

Heng Xinyuan had a smile on the corner of his lips, he was not annoyed when he heard Li Zhen scolding and scolding himself just now, and now there is no need to be angry. Heng Xinyuan directly helped Li Zhen up from the ground, and then said with a gentle expression: "Vice General Li doesn't have to blame himself, I said just now, I don't blame you for this incident, if you want to blame, I can only blame myself for dereliction of duty and failure to stabilize the morale of the army." ”

How much Li Zhen doubted Heng Xinyuan's ability before, and now he admires Heng Xinyuan: "It's all the fault of the last general, the last general lost his words after drinking, and please punish the general!" ”

Where would Heng Xinyuan have the idea of punishing Li Zhen, he only felt that Li Zhen was available, the only drawback was that he was too reckless, maybe when he got along in the future, he could try to persuade Li Zhen, so that the other party would not be so impulsive. After all, the high place is not cold, his position is not too low, and if he continues like this, he will inevitably be coveted.

When Heng Xinyuan was about to say that he didn't want to punish Li Zhen, Chen Yuan, who was standing next to him and had not spoken, suddenly opened his mouth: "General, you should still punish Vice General Xu." Vice General Xu should have been punished for doing something wrong, he made a big mistake of drunken gaffe, and he almost made the army unstable......"

"If such a major mistake is not punished, how can it stabilize the hearts of the soldiers? I also asked the general not to let go of Adjutant General Li because of his temporary unbearability. ”

Although Chen Yuan was persuading Heng Xinyuan to punish himself, Li Zhen had no resentment in his heart.

He felt it was as it should be.

"Please also ask the general to punish the last general!" Li Zhen took the initiative to ask again!

Heng Xinyuan, who was persuaded and persecuted in this way, had to choose to follow their wishes: "Since this is the case, then General Xu will go and get twenty military sticks, from now on, the drunken gaffe must not happen again." ”

Li Zhen has no doubt about this: "The last general takes the order!" ”

When the Liangzhou military camp returned to calm, on the way to Liangzhou, an army was marching! Riding a horse at the forefront of the army was a handsome young man, if Heng Xinyuan and Wan Bingyu were present at this time, they would definitely be able to recognize the identity of this young man, he was Li Wenyao, the prince of the dynasty.
