Seeing this scene from afar, outside Zhuolu County, the chief general who led the Youjun Army, Captain Han Xuan, frowned.

In all fairness, Han Xuan actually didn't believe that Tang Jun was really powerful to the point of being invincible. Regarding the "arrogance" of the Tang Army mentioned in the military newspaper, he felt that it was just an exaggeration by local generals to coax the imperial court and want to urge the imperial court to send troops.

But at this moment, he saw with his own eyes the reaction of the Tang army in Zhuolu County, and he felt that these Tang troops were really arrogant enough, and they didn't take his 350,000 Youjun in their eyes at all.

What? And the 50,000 new army of courtiers and servants on the side? Oh, Han Xuan didn't count this rabble.

In his opinion, the attack on Zhuolu County still depends on the elite of the Youjun army under his command after all, and those new servants and pawns are at best the icing on the cake, which consumes the morale and physical strength of the Tang army defending the city.

At this moment, a herald hurriedly came, clenched his fists, and said, "Lord Lieutenant, our general has asked you to come over and discuss."

The general mentioned by the herald is the general who commands the 50,000 servant army, Li Cong, the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

「……」

Han Xuan looked at the comer, and his brows suddenly furrowed even tighter.

He is the captain of Youguo, the chief general in charge of the 400,000 Youguo army, what kind of goods is Li Cong, a second ancestor who relies on the grace of his father, to dare to ask him to go over to discuss?

Han Xuan's eyes rolled a few times, suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, nodded and said, "Okay! Captain Ben will go at once."

When the generals beside Han Xuan heard that Han Xuan was going, they all wanted to dissuade him, but they were blocked by Han Xuan.

Not long after, Han Xuan took Changshi and a team of personal guards to the rear of the Youjun on horseback and saw Li Cong.

I have to say that this Li Cong, as the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, has been observing words and emotions since he was a child, and when he saw Han Xuan coming slowly on his horse, he quickly dismounted and came to Han Xuan, took the initiative to take a few steps forward, took the lead in saluting Han Xuan, and said, "The little nephew has seen Uncle Han."

Seeing this, the unhappiness in Han Xuan's heart retreated a little.

Han Xuan also jumped off the war horse and said to Li Cong, "General Li is polite, the old man can't be your "uncle", if there is anything, let's talk about it."

Li Cong listened to Han Xuan's words, and scolded secretly in his heart: Old horseman.

He followed behind Han Xuan, Han Xuan was in front, and he took a step behind him, looking at the city wall of Zhuolu County from afar.

At this time, Li Cong Zhengse said to Han Xuan: "Lord Taiwei, the Tang army is arrogant, and treats my 400,000 ghost army as nothing, you see......

Seeing Li Cong asking for his opinion, Han Xuan snorted secretly in his heart, and secretly said that the second son of the Li family finally knew what was going on. new

After snorting secretly, he frowned again and looked at the city wall of Zhuolu County in the distance, and after a moment, he nodded and said, "The soldiers of our army are almost rested, and they can try to attack the city. General Li is willing to be the vanguard, and I will sweep the battle for General Lee."

Skimming?

To put it ugly, it is to stand in the back and watch the excitement.

Of course, Li Cong knew what kind of virtues the soldiers under his command were, how could he agree to such a thing?

He smiled bitterly and said to Han Xuan, "Lord Taiwei, I am afraid that our army will not be able to attack the city alone. Why don't you all go together? Conquer Zhuolu County as soon as possible, and you can report the good news to the emperor as soon as possible."

「……」

Han Xuan took a deep look at Li Cong, who showed a slight smirk, and after a little thought, said, "General Li's soldiers take the lead, let me see the reality of the Tang army, and when the second wave of attacks occurs, I will send the elite of the You army to participate in the battle."

Han Xuan's tone was irrefutable.

Seeing this, Li Cong secretly scolded in his heart: Damn, rely on the old and sell the old. But there was no abnormality on his face, and he nodded and said, "Good, good."

When the deliberations were over, the two returned to their respective armies.

Seeing Li Cong returning on horseback from a distance, the generals of various families in the servant army who could participate in deciding things surrounded them one after another, asking Li Cong about the results of the discussion between Li Cong and Han Xu.

Li Cong pressed his hand to signal everyone to be calm, and then said, "I have discussed with Han Qi just now, and he advocates attacking the city immediately, but he asked me to take the lead and touch the Tang army

of the virtual and the ......."

Hearing this, the generals of all the families were in an uproar.

"Obviously he has 400,000 Phantom troops in his hands, but he told us to take the lead and told us to send us to death, this old horseman is very calculating."

"At least send people from both sides to ......."

It's no wonder that these family generals are dissatisfied, after all, everyone has selfish intentions.

Due to the needs of management, the 50,000 men of the domestic servant army were divided into more than a dozen forces, and according to these ten forces, they were divided into more than a dozen battalions. Li Cong was only in the Fengzi Battalion, the largest camp of 10,000 people, and although the weight of his words was large, he could not make a final decision.

You know, fighting a war is to kill people, although most of these family generals are hiding behind and calling their soldiers to attack the city, but then again, the soldiers under them are also a kind of "capital".

Seeing that the generals of the family were full of anger, Li Cong pressed his hand and said with relief: "Everyone, everyone, Han Xuan just wants us to take the lead, not to ask us to die, in the final analysis, taking down this Zhuolu County is very beneficial to him Han Xu, and he will not ignore it." Once he understands the reality of the Tang Army, he will inevitably immediately dispatch the elite of the Ghost Army."

At the end, he added, "We can let the 'slaves' take the lead."

By slaves, he meant the lowest-ranking domestic slaves in the domestic servant army, that is, the slaves that the nobles bought and sold and forcibly captured. This group of slaves was equivalent to goods, they had no human rights at all, they could only work for the nobles year after year, and the remaining sons were still slaves.

Therefore, for something as dangerous as today, it must be to send these slaves to death. Even if these slaves are all dead, whether it is Li Cong or the family generals, they will not be too distressed. Anyway, it's just a herd of livestock, and when it's gone, find a place to buy it, and catch it again.

Sure enough, hearing Li Cong say this, the generals of the Yigan family nodded in agreement, and said: That's okay!

At Li Cong's suggestion, the generals of these families got together and put together a team of 10,000 people, all of whom were domestic slaves of each family, accounting for about 20% of the total number.

I have to say that those slaves are indeed not in the climate, obviously there are tens of thousands of people, but no one dares to take the lead in rebelling against these nobles, so that today they were sent by these nobles to attack Zhuolu County and send them to death.

Considering the fighting spirit of those slaves, Li Cong also made some arrangements, and he instructed the generals of the family: "You must send a team of supervisors, if the slaves are timid, they will be killed on the spot!"

"Whoa!"

The generals of the family agreed one after another.

As for commanding the group of slaves to attack the city wall, Li Cong handed over the matter to his subordinate Murong Chen, a general who looked rough and arrogant. Murong Chen was born in the Xianbei Murong clan and was a general in the Prime Minister's Mansion. This time, he was sent by the Minister of State to Li Cong to help Li Cong.
