It's a pity that Wang Shichong is on the rise, and he can't listen to Lu Chu's words at all.

In addition, most of the people around him gave the latter a look and asked him not to pour cold water on him, so Lu Chu had no choice but to shut his mouth and say no more.

Time passes slowly.

Another three days passed.

Now the whole Luoyang was at ease, the soldiers in the city no longer patrolled day and night, and the people resumed their livelihoods. The Luoyang army stationed on the border was no longer cautious, and relaxed like the Sui army, and even some soldiers sneaked back to the city to meet their wives and children.

The tense atmosphere of confrontation between the two armies seemed to have disappeared all at once.

Everyone knew that this battle could not be fought at all, and now they only needed to count the days with their fingers and wait for the Sui army to take the initiative to retreat.

In the camp of the Sui army.

Seeing this scene, Sima Dejiao and others felt that something was wrong, but in recent days, they have gone to Yang Guang many times, but each time they have been prevaricated back by Yang Guang for various reasons.

On this day, someone from the other side of the room came to Sima Dejiao and reported to him: "General, after many days of consumption, our army's grain and grass are almost bottoming out, and it can last for three to five days at most. ”

"Tell a fart."

Sima Dejiao was a little impatient, the grain and grass bottomed out, this was undoubtedly a heavy blow, which meant that they could not continue this battle, so they either retreated or waited for Jiangdu to transport grain and grass over there.

But how can grain and grass be so easy to give?

If all sides go well, it will take at least twenty days or so, and if you encounter bandits along the way, it will take even more time.

At this moment, even Sima Dejiao had some complaints about Yang Guang.

Seeing the guy standing there with an embarrassed face, Sima Dejiao took a deep breath, waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, this matter will be personally told to Your Majesty, you go down first." ”

"Good!"

After the man left, Sima Dejiao looked depressed and went to find Yang Guang.

It's just strange that Yang Guang at the moment is not lying there eating and drinking as usual, or resting, but communicating carefully with a secret agent.

Seeing Sima Dejiao coming in, Yang Guang did not drive him out, but smiled slightly, and then revealed domineeringly: "Sima Dejiao, you came just in time, spread my word, and immediately launch a surprise attack on the Luoyang defenders thirty miles away tonight!" ”

"Huh?" Sima Dejiao was originally here to talk about grain and grass, but the scene that happened now immediately made him unable to react, and he even thought that he had heard it wrong.

"What's the matter, it's been too long to relax, won't you fight?" Yang Guang asked solemnly.

Sima Dejiao hurriedly shook his head and asked blankly: "No, Your Majesty, it's just ......"

"I just don't understand why I suddenly launched a surprise attack, do I?"

"That's right!"

Sima Dejiao nodded heavily, a little surprised.

Yang Guang squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Because, when I first came to the border, I received news from the Luoyang secret agent, saying that Wang Shichong had sent a messenger to Chang'an to ask Li Shimin for help, so that the two of them joined forces to deal with our 80,000-strong army together." ”

"Think about it, if we fought with Luoyang at that time, how long would this battle be entangled? Probably not yet finished the fight, Li Shimin sent heavy troops over. ”

"When the time comes, we will be attacked on our backs, do you think we have a chance to win this battle?"

Sima Dejiao's spirit was shocked, and he muttered, "The chances of winning are very small. ”

"Looks like you understand the current situation."

Yang Guang nodded approvingly: "Moreover, in addition to the unstable factor of Li Shimin, the Luoyang side is sharpening its knives against our arrival, just waiting for us to take the lead, if I follow Wang Shichong's wishes to give this order, then we will undoubtedly fall into a bitter battle, even if we can defeat the elite soldiers sent by Wang Shichong, we will suffer heavy losses." ”

"I don't want that kind of defeat! Can you understand my painstaking efforts? ”

After saying that, he didn't forget to sneer.

"Besides, Wang Shichong, a dog minion, doesn't deserve to make me pay such a big price."

The more Sima Dejiao listened, the more shocked he became, and the whole person was almost stunned.

After a while, he asked blankly, "Then Your Majesty, why did you decide to make a move now?" ”

Yang Guang looked at Sima Dejiao with burning eyes: "Because I just got the news, what I did before has completely made Wang Shichong slack, so that in order to save some unnecessary expenses, the latter has ordered the recall of the messenger sent to Chang'an." ”

"At the moment, there should be no action on the Chang'an side for the time being, so that I can attack Luoyang with peace of mind."

"Besides, most of our enemies have lost their fighting spirit now, if we fight at this time, hehe......"

There was no need to say the next words again, and it could be seen from Sima Deji's excited expression that he had understood everything.

"The last general had doubted His Majesty before, but now he knows that he has made a terrible mistake, and I hope His Majesty will forgive him." Sure enough, the next moment, Sima Dejiao knelt heavily on the ground, his face full of shame.

Yang Guang waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm not such a cautious person, as long as you can give me a victory, even if you point at my nose and scold me, I will continue." ”

"Then the general will not dare to ......," Sima Dejiao smiled.

got up and said expectantly: "Your Majesty, your trick is really amazing, if we directly fought with the defenders of Luoyang before, then we would have to lose at least more than 10,000 people, but now... The last general believes that this number will be reduced to a minimum. ”

"Alas!"

When Yang Guang heard this, he suddenly sighed: "Although there will definitely be deaths in the war, which is something that no one can stop, I still can't see any casualties in our army." ”

"Your Majesty's strategy is extraordinary, and he has invisibly saved too many lives, so there is no need to care about this." Sima Dejiao clenched his fists and said impatiently: "Then the general will go to the general now?" ”

"Go ahead, they've been idle for so long, it's time to boost morale."

The corners of Yang Guang's mouth rose: "However, it is precisely because of the leisurely nature of this period of time, therefore, the physical strength of the soldiers is the most abundant, facing those enemy troops who have no fighting spirit in a hurry." This battle must be won! ”

"That's right!"

Sima Dejiao also had extreme confidence in his eyes.

Then he left the tent and went out to get ready.

Don't look at the soldiers who are all resting at this time, but their foundation is there after all, as long as they give an order, they will immediately turn into a howling little tiger.

In this regard, Sima Dejiao is not worried at all......
