"General Li, Cui Changde's fierce beast corps has broken through more than a dozen cities such as Xianghe, Hanyang, Shaoguan, and Pingming!" In the military tent, a burly man wearing Rong armor said in a deep voice.

"Their ferocity was simply irresistible, and almost every city surrendered as soon as the beast army approached the city, and many of the defenders were frightened and defeated without a fight. The only two cities that did not surrender, Jiaozhou and Taihe, were also under the onslaught of the other party, the city walls were destroyed, the defenders were killed, and the people in the city were inflicted countless casualties!"

The man frowned, and continued: "I received a report from the eyeliner that the hundreds of cities within the thousand-mile defense line we have set up have begun to spread rumors, saying that our Dajin Emperor's dynasty has run out of energy, and it has reached the time of destruction, and it is the time when their Great Liang Dynasty rises and changes the heavens and the earth! Cui Changde's fierce beast army is unstoppable and invincible, if Cui Changde's army fights over, he must open the city to greet him and serve the Great Liang! Otherwise, he will go against the sky, and he will suffer the curse of heaven, and the city will be destroyed!"

"Bang!" Another man smashed the case table in front of him with one palm, and said angrily: "Zhang Ze, don't confuse the people with evil words and disturb the morale of the army! If this word spreads into the barracks and causes the morale of the army to be discouraged, you will be dealt with by military law; if it spreads to the imperial city, you will be punished for treason and exterminate the nine clans!"

"Zhu Chao'an, where did I disturb the morale of the army? These are all rumors circulating in more than 100 cities, how could I have made them up? Now there are dozens of city guards who are restless, and the morale of the army is shaken, why don't you deal with them?" Zhang Ze also said angrily.

Zhu Chaoan sneered: "The army's heart is shaken, do you want to commit treason to the enemy? If they dare to do this, you don't need General Li to do it, I will personally go and kill them!"

"You two shut up!" shouted a man at the front of the queue.

"Can't you see that the rumors in those cities are all tricks of the enemy? Cui Changde, as the first general of the Great Liang, is the best at attacking the heart. He attacked the hearts of our soldiers to the death with the incomparably strong momentum of the fierce beast army, and concentrated all his forces to storm several of our cities, creating the illusion of a powerful devastation, and finally sent people to infiltrate the cities within our defense line, and walked these rumors to confuse the people, causing panic and danger to everyone, and gradually disintegrating our defense line. In this way, no matter how strong our defense line is, it will be corroded by the other side!"

"Without the assistance of these offensive strategies, no matter how powerful he Cui Changde is, no matter how strong the fierce beast army is, they will have to pay an extremely tragic price if they want to break through the defense line set up by General Li. However, now these tactics have hit the vital point of our army, and have already shown signs of dissipation of the morale of the army and turmoil of the people, and this situation will become more and more serious. If the situation continues to develop like this, our side will lose the morale of the military and the people! When we really go head-to-head with Cui Changde, we will have no chance of winning!"

After Sun Changxing finished speaking, Zhu Chaoan and Zhang Ze were already pale. Even the dozen or so generals in the military tent were all gray and ugly.

While everyone was fidgeting, only a middle-aged man sitting at the top of the tent was still indifferent, not saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

This person's surname is Li, and his name is Pofeng, who is the legendary Li Pofeng recorded tens of thousands of years ago recorded in the classics!

Li Xuanji naturally knew this person, Li Pofeng's age was not very long, but it was only tens of thousands of years ago, and it was recorded in many classics and annals.

It is said that one of the most powerful vassal kings of the Dajin Dynasty split off and established himself as the emperor, with the name of Daliang. He then recruited troops and horses, and in just a few decades swept tens of thousands of miles of territory, exterminated countless feudal kings and small states, and established a powerful dynasty that could rival the Great Jin. However, when the dynasty had accumulated for decades and finally mustered up the strength to vow to destroy Daikin, it was defeated because of a battle, and finally the dynasty collapsed.

The person who caused the fiasco of Daliang was Li Pofeng, and the name of that battle was the Battle of Hasegawa!

The first story Li Xuanji read in "The Tales of Famous Generals" was Li Pofeng's Battle of Hasegawa.

In the past, when he read "The Story of Famous Generals", he was on the road, and he read it intermittently, and some of them were not used to it. Now when he finally has time to read in his small courtyard with peace of mind, he finds that the more he concentrates on reading, the more blurred his consciousness becomes, and finally he comes here in a daze!

Here he has no concept of time, no concept of self, as if he did not exist at all. He was like a silent third person, watching everything happen with a cold eye.

He didn't know how long he had been here, but he had seen what was happening on this battlefield.

From the beginning of the invasion of Daliang's army, Cui Changde pressed the border with a well-prepared army of 500,000, and Li Pofeng, the defender of Daphnom Penh, met the battle with a hastily assembled army of 400,000, and successfully resisted the opponent's crazy attack.

Li Pofeng was not a famous general at that time, but he had been operating the border pass for many years, and in the short time when the Daliang army invaded, he commanded to resist the enemy army while uniting with the surrounding cities to mobilize defense, and in just half a month, he laid out a solid defense line for the border defense, so that the 500,000 troops of Daliang could not go any further! This shows this person's military talent and position in the hearts of the soldiers and civilians of hundreds of border defense cities!

But the good times didn't last long, and after Cui Changde attacked for half a month without results, he actually waited for a corps, a powerful fierce beast corps composed of a large number of fierce beasts and beast masters! It turned out that this was the biggest hole card for the Great Liang Dynasty to dare to annex the Dajin Dynasty!

With the help of this fierce beast corps, the strong defense line set up by Li Pofeng has become a 'wooden fence' full of weaknesses!

Cui Changde concentrated the strength of the fierce beast army to focus on a point, and the tall and sturdy city wall collapsed under the ravages of fierce beasts and beasts, and the city was ruined. Then Cui Changde led an army of 500,000 to follow the fierce beast corps and drove straight in, breaking through several cities in a row in the same way, and it was unstoppable! After this battle, the defense line established by Li Pofeng was broken from it, and it had lost its meaning, and it existed in name only!

However, Li Pofeng also moved quickly, he quickly adjusted the combat plan, made every effort to repair the defensive line, designed several countermeasures for the fierce beast army, and relied on the power of the terrain to resist the opponent's strong attack. made Cui Changde attack several times and did not take another big city, but only turned to some chicken-ribbed small cities.

It's a pity that Li Pofeng's countermeasures are not a long-term solution, and it is not wise to resist the power of fierce beasts with manpower.

If you want to fight the fierce beast with manpower, you must pay several times the price. But there is no end to manpower, but the beast does not. Cui Changde's fierce beast corps is like a vicious wolf staring at a flock of sheep, ready to bite the weakest sheep to death at any time! Every movement of the fierce beast corps will make dozens of cities tremble, and the soldiers under his command are even more exhausted in order to strengthen their defenses. After a long time, whether it is the people, soldiers or guards, they are already physically and mentally exhausted, and they are gradually showing their decline. If this goes on for a long time, Daikin will be defeated!

And at this time when people are anxious, rumors are spreading in the defense line, the people are panicking, and the army is in turmoil. This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to Li Pofeng's side!

"General Li, what should we do next?" Sun Changxing looked at Li Pofeng and asked in a low voice.

He waved his hand, and the dozen or so people in the tent immediately fell silent, all looking at him with hope.

Li Pofeng rubbed his temples, opened his mouth, and finally sighed and said, "I...... Zhang Ze, Zhu Chao'an, and Sun Changxing stayed ......."

Everyone didn't expect that what they were waiting for was such a sentence, and they couldn't help but be disappointed. But no one said anything, because they didn't know what to say. They all walked out of the tent slowly, silently.

"This battle has come to this point, it seems that even General Li has no skills to return to heaven!" someone couldn't help but sigh softly.

"How can this be blamed on General Li? When Cui Changde led 500,000 elite soldiers to attack suddenly, General Li was able to build a thousand-mile defense line with his own hands while commanding and resisting the enemy, blocking the enemy from the country, and this courage and courage alone are not comparable to ordinary people! Later, Cui Changde led the fierce beast corps to break through the defense line strongly, and General Li was still able to regain his strength and try his best to resist the attack of the fierce beast corps. It has not been easy for General Li to lead us to hold out until now. After all, he is a man, not a god, and even if we are defeated in the end, it is no wonder that General Li is defeated. Another argued.

"Well, that's right. It seems that our battle has really come to an end, if there is really someone who can turn the tables in this situation, then this person must be a god from heaven!"

"Hehe, stop dreaming. Do you still hope that there will be a divine soldier from heaven to help us win this battle? I think you should think carefully about how you can save your life in this war that you must lose. I remember that a pair of children in your family seem to have just spoken......"

The other person was stunned for a moment, and his eyes instantly dimmed.

In the military tent, only Li Pofeng, Zhang Ze, Zhu Chaoan, Sun Changxing and other four people remained.

Zhu Chao'an looked at the silent Li Pofeng and asked a little sadly: "General Li, are you really helpless? I have never seen you so helpless as today." Are we really going to sit back and wait?"

Zhang Ze and Sun Changxing also looked at him intently, waiting for him to open his mouth to say good news with a one-ten-thousandth hope.

The silent Li Pofeng suddenly raised his head, looked at the three people with burning eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "The three of you are the people I trust the most, and they are also the most capable people in the current army, so can the three of you trust me Li Pofeng?"

The three of them looked at each other, a little dazed, not knowing why he suddenly asked such a question, but they still replied together: "Trustworthy! General Li has something to say!"

Li Pofeng stared at the three people and whispered: "I have a plan that may allow us to survive the death, I wonder if the three of them are willing to listen?"

The three of them were immediately shocked, and then they were ecstatic, and hurriedly nodded and replied: "General Li, please say, as long as this battle can be won, we are willing to go to the soup!"

Li Pofeng smiled, beckoned to the three of them, and said, "Come here with your ears!"

Zhang Ze, Zhu Chao'an, and Sun Changxing hurriedly approached Li Pofeng, and their faces changed unpredictably when they heard him arrange like this.

After Li Pofeng finished speaking, he raised his hand to the three people and saluted, "Then, the life of my Li will be handed over to the three of them!"

"Boom!" the three of them suddenly knelt on the ground and replied in a low voice: "Swear to complete the task!"
