Chapter 928: Rao Jun provokes

According to the news reported by some spies, after confirming that the Rao army would not fight again today, Lin Xuanzhong and a group of generals began to deal with the current urgent military affairs.

After a night, most of the soldiers' emotions have stabilized, and they no longer seem to have no fighting spirit because of a defeat, and many people are in high spirits, shouting early in the morning to find Rao Jun for revenge. It was impossible to go to war, so early in the morning, Zhang Jiutian took people to appease the emotions of those people and let those people understand that there were more specific plans above.

In fact, for Lin Xuanzhong and them, the defeat in the first battle is not terrible, the key is the various subsequent effects caused by the defeat. After the morale of the army was hit, it was even more difficult to manage the personnel in the army, and even if Lin Xuanzhong personally intervened, the morale of the blue army could not be restored in a short period of time. The effect of Zhang Jiutian's appearance is even worse, and if it is not handled well, it may increase the severity of the problem.

It was impossible for Zhang Jiutian to pacify the morale of the army alone, so Lin Xuanzhong planned to take all the generals to deal with the matter, mainly to encourage the morale of the army, and asked those people to maintain a firm fighting spirit and defeat the Rao army next time. There are not many choices for the time being, as for Lin Xuanzhong, whether their approach is useful or not can only be proven by time.

One morning, there were generals everywhere who followed Lin Xuanzhong's instructions to appease the army, so that the personnel below understood that the next battle was the most important, and all the personnel should maintain high morale and not have to be discouraged by a defeat. With the help of Lin Xuanzhong's reputation, with the efforts of a group of generals, the situation in the army was officially stabilized. Next, the Blue Army had to guard against the Rao Army's attack at any time, while waiting for Bai Shuilian to bring the troops over.

Through the efforts of Lin Xuanzhong and the generals, the military situation is clear, and everyone knows what to do next.

After a busy morning, the results of last night's divination were completely forgotten by Lin Xuanzhong, and it was not until the afternoon that Lin Xuanzhong suddenly remembered this. In order to keep this matter from being known to others, Lin Xuanzhong deliberately went to Xue Yin to ensure that the girls would not spread the matter.

Last night, there was a lot of movement when Xue Yin was calculating, if Zhang Jiutian and the others knew, they would definitely go over to ask, but fortunately, those people were still busy. After making sure that no one else knew about last night, Lin Xuanzhong slowly put his mind at ease, and asked Xue Yin if there was a way to crack it. Speaking of which, the result of the divination did make Lin Xuanzhong a little uneasy.

On the other hand, in fact, after Lin Xuanzhong went back last night, Xue Yin had already thought that the divination was only for Lin Xuanzhong personally, so it didn't mean that other people would also have an accident. Regardless of whether Lin Xuanzhong will go into battle in person, no one can predict the final result, and the only thing that remains unchanged is that Lin Xuanzhong is destined to encounter accidents.

Lin Xuanzhong's safety is what Xue Yin is most worried about, but fortunately, Lin Xuanzhong's indifferent performance when they met today eased Xue Yin's worries, but he didn't expect Lin Xuanzhong to be so optimistic, and after a period of surprise, Xue Yin gave the solution he had thought about all night. As long as Lin Xuanzhong does not participate in the war, all dangers will be solved.

Facing Xue Yin's answer, Lin Xuanzhong had a feeling that it was not unexpected, but the chance of not participating in the war was too small, and Lin Xuanzhong couldn't make any response to it for the time being. In any case, if one person's life and death can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of lives, Lin Xuanzhong is still willing, maybe outsiders can't see it, in fact, Lin Xuanzhong doesn't value personal life and death.

After returning from Xue Yin, Lin Xuanzhong began to think about tactics against Rao's army. Yesterday's battle did not change the disparity in strength between the two sides, and it will take tactics to achieve a big victory. According to Lin Xuanzhong's guess, Rao Jun must be thinking about how to deal with the Blue Army at present.

With the wisdom of the commander of the Rao army, he must not feel that he has the chance to win just by relying on a battle, and after considering some things from the perspective of the Rao army, Lin Xuanzhong's thinking is becoming clearer and clearer, and his grasp of the battle situation is also more accurate.

When Lin Xuanzhong was thinking about how to deal with Rao's army, the generals below were also not idle, and they were either dealing with military affairs or thinking about strategies to deal with Rao's army like Lin Xuanzhong. Yesterday's battle made them see the advantages of Rao's army, and realized their own shortcomings. Although the results were not good, they were not necessarily bad, and after a more detailed analysis of the reasons for the defeat, many people had come to more refined conclusions, and those conclusions were the key to their considerations.

It is worth mentioning that after taking back the power from Zhang Jiutian, Lin Xuanzhong is no longer busy with his children's personal affairs, and is very involved in the military, and is already playing a qualified leadership role. They did lose a battle, but they won back the Lin Xuanzhong they expected. All in all, Lin Xuanzhong's changes have lifted many people's spirits.

In fact, the defeat was only part of the reason why Lin Xuanzhong came back, and part of it was because Lin Xuanzhong had figured out a lot of things recently. Since someone has been sent to inquire about the news in the north, no matter what the result is, after the battle with the Rao army, Lin Xuanzhong will have to go back to the north, so why rush for a while.

After the atmosphere in the army slowly returned to normal, morale began to pick up, and everything was going in a good direction. Putting aside the situation in the Blue Army camp, Bai Shuilian is there. As the night passed, Bai Shuilian had received the news that the Blue Army and the Rao Army were fighting.

If you don't count the casualties in yesterday's battle, it was indeed the Blue Army that lost, and if you count the casualties, the puppet army lost more casualties, so the Blue Army was not defeated. Now that Lin Xuanzhong is in charge of the camp, Bai Shuilian is not worried that there will be too much trouble with the front army. However, 60,000 casualties are indeed unacceptable, and the direct loss of 40,000 troops without harming the root of the Rao army is more than worth the loss, Bai Shuilian now only hopes that the puppet army will not cause them more trouble.

Regarding the Night Army, Bai Shuilian has already considered it to a certain extent. At present, Tianyu Kingdom is indeed shattered by the Rao army, but some local forces are still retained, and it should not be so easy for the Rao army to control so many puppet armies, unless those local forces are the key to Rao's control of the puppet army. After thinking about this, Bai Shuilian only waited for further news from Lin Xuanzhong.

On the other side, Zhao Wu in the south also received the news of the battle between the Blue Army and the Rao Army. According to Zhao Wu's point of view, since it was Rao's army who took the initiative to attack, Lin Xuanzhong's approach of going out of the camp to meet the battle was naturally not wrong, as for victory or defeat, it was just a result. One result could not determine the outcome between the two sides, so no matter how Rao Jun's side would exaggerate their results, Zhao Wu was unmoved.

The decisive battle between Zhou Dingnan and Zhou Dingnan is about to begin, the direct strength of the 200,000 Rao army can be regarded as an authentic bandit army, all behaviors have the characteristics of strong bandits, the garrison location is relatively secret, and the periphery of the camp is extremely vigilant. In addition to knowing the approximate number of the Rao army, Zhao Wu did not know anything about the situation in the Rao army's garrison.

In addition, since the Rao army was stationed at a position fifty miles away from them, it had not shown any fighting tendencies until now, as if it was only to drag Zhao Wu to buy time for another army. However, no matter what the Rao army has planned, Zhao Wu does not want to delay, since the Rao army in the north is more numerous than the blue army in the north, then the support that Zhao Wu can give to the blue army in the north is to solve this Rao army as soon as possible.

For Zhao Wu, the internal movements of the Rao army were not the key to his attention, as long as they could be sure that they would not be disturbed by the outside world when dealing with this Rao army, it would not affect their plans.

If all goes well, Zhao Wu may not wait for the battle to begin in the north, and Zhao Wu will attack this Rao army, whether from the front or from the flank, even if they want to give up their own geographical advantage, Zhao Wu will still choose to take the initiative. Now that Zhao Wu is relied on, Lin Xuanzhong doesn't need to think about the Rao army in the south.

In a blink of an eye, three days passed, and what was surprising was that Rao's army did not launch a second attack on Lin Xuanzhong and them, but sent people over to provoke.

On the first day, a few miles away from the Blue Army camp, more than a dozen people dressed as puppet soldiers rode horses to the Blue Army camp to shoot arrows wrapped in strips of cloth, and left after shooting.

The content of the strip of cloth is a variety of derogatory words for the Blues, some of which are unsightly, and generally convey the same meaning, the Blues are timid and afraid to seek revenge on them after defeat. Rao Jun's behavior is undoubtedly a provocation, and there are some disadvantages for the blue army that has just stabilized the military situation, so the people above suppressed the matter, and only a few people know about it for the time being.

Surprisingly, the next day, Rao's army sent people to provoke again, and also brought the corpses of some blue army generals, and when they arrived outside the blue army camp, those people left the corpses, and at the same time left a message to the blue army. This time, the Rao army mainly humiliated Lin Xuanzhong and others for being cowardly and incompetent, and they couldn't even save the bodies of their subordinates, and they were not worthy of leading the troops.

Paper can't hold the fire, although Lin Xuanzhong and others kept the matter secret this time, there are still more and more people who know that Rao Jun is coming to pick quarrels and provoke trouble. Originally, Lin Xuanzhong and the others were unwilling to deal with the despicable tricks used by the Rao army to disturb the hearts of the Blue Army, but after seeing the heads of those generals, including Lin Xuanzhong, everyone who knew the situation was extremely angry.

Among those corpses are faces that Lin Xuanzhong is familiar with, and some of them are still dead, Rao Jun's provocation brought Lin Xuanzhong not only anger but also humiliation and helplessness, Lin Xuanzhong's will was hit a lot, especially in the case of recognizing the identities of some corpses, but Lin Xuanzhong is not the kind of person who can't hold his breath, Rao Jun's repeated provocations are nothing more than to hit the morale of the Blue Army and shake the morale of the Blue Army.
