Mengzhou City is worthy of being the first city in Mengzhou, the city wall is high and thick, covers a huge area, the radius is surrounded by no obstruction, at a glance, everything in front of you is in full view.

It is impossible to sneak attack, and at the four corners of the city tower, a tall arrow tower is built, which can clearly see the surroundings of Mengzhou City.

The existence of the arrow tower, in addition to the warning effect, there is also a message, once any abnormal movement is found, the arrow tower will light the beacon fire as soon as possible, and the deputy general sitting in the city can dispatch troops at the fastest speed.

The city wall defense of Mengzhou City, but after many major battles, you can see some potholes of different sizes on the city wall.

It can be seen that Mengzhou City has played a role in previous battles.

Only this time, as it approached, the tall and thick city wall was still the same wall, but it gave people an inexplicable depression.

Especially when he walked into the city, the atmosphere in the city was even more depressing, and Su Qi'an guessed one or two without asking.

The surprise attack of the Honored Soldiers not only caused them to lose half of Mengzhou, but even the commander was killed, and now they are trapped in Mengzhou, and there is a high-momentum Honored Army in front of them, no matter how you look at it, there is a precarious feeling.

Feeling the gloomy atmosphere in the city, Su Qi'an didn't say anything, let alone stop on the street, galloped wildly, and went straight to the mansion in the city.

When he came to Mengzhou City, Su Qi'an immediately gave the first order, asking Li Sheng to gather all the soldiers in Mengzhou City, and he wanted to give a lecture.

Li Sheng nodded heavily and immediately took action, and the news of Su Qi'an's coming to Mengzhou City spread quickly with the spread of Li Sheng.

Many of the soldiers who received the order were surprised, but they still quickly assembled in the barracks in the city as soon as they were ordered, and in about a quarter of an hour, the soldiers who had been scattered all over the country quickly assembled in the barracks.

The soldiers were demoralized, and occasionally their eyes swept to a high platform in front of them, knowing that the overseer under the command of Ganzhou had arrived in Mengzhou.

Most of the soldiers were not very happy in their hearts, they had experienced a crushing defeat in a war, let alone any overseers, even if His Majesty was there in person, they could not lift their spirits.

How could the current situation in Mengzhou be changed by just one overseer?

Even if this overseer has 20,000 soldiers, so what, it should be good to be able to hold the current Mengzhou, and the top priority should be to ask the imperial court for help, or directly abandon Mengzhou.

These miscellaneous thoughts basically occupied the hearts of most of the Mengzhou soldiers, but they didn't dare to say much because of the current situation and their identities.

At this time, if you say this kind of thing, you can completely shake the morale of the army and directly ask the beheading to deal with it, even if their morale is low, it will not be to the point of being so stupid.

In the barracks, there was a crowd of people, and everyone did not wait for a long time, as Li Sheng and other three lieutenants appeared, among them, a young man dressed in white and looking friendly stood in the middle.

Su Qi'an's coming to power inevitably received discussions from many soldiers below, and they all whispered.

"I have long heard that the overseer sent by the imperial court is a young man, but I didn't expect it to be so young, and today is an eye-opener."

"No, I don't know if such a young Overseer has real talent or is he going through the motions."

"Who knows, if I were to be cannon fodder anyway, I would definitely not be sent to death."

The chattering sound resounded, Su Qi'an's face was calm, and he didn't need to speak, and under Li Sheng's reprimand, everyone's discussion stopped.

Under Li Sheng's introduction, Su Qi'an began to speak unhurriedly.

"Benhou Su Qi'an, is the overseer appointed by the imperial court, you should not know Benhou, because of the military affairs of Ganzhou, which led to Benhou's negligence in Mengzhou's defense line, resulting in the rout of Mengzhou, this time, this overseer wants to apologize to you, this is Benhou's responsibility."

Su Qi'an's words were thrown out, which immediately caused an uproar among the soldiers in the audience, and even the two lieutenants next to Li Sheng were surprised.

They had seen a lot of overseers who were arrogant and scolding, but it was the first time they had seen someone like this who came to apologize to them.

Although surprised, most of the soldiers did not have much respect for Su Qi'an in their hearts, but looked down on it.

In their opinion, this young overseer is most likely just here to make a military exploit and make a fool's errand, and it is estimated that he has not even been on the battlefield a few times.

As for the rumored conquest of the southern and northern wars for the imperial court, most of them are boastful, and they are nothing more than a title.

Such an Overseer, in their eyes, was no different from waste, and they thought that this Soviet Overseer would come and punish them, which frightened them.

Now it seems that it is just a gentleman, and all of a sudden, the tension in his heart gradually relaxed, with a flirtatious look on his face, they want to hear how this gentleman speaks.

The performance of the soldiers, Su Qi'an had a full view, he had a smile on his face, and he looked at everyone and continued.

"This battle, you have paid a lot, the Overseer also knows that you are not easy, here the Overseer to express my gratitude to you, although the loss of half of the Mengzhou, but this battle is not over, so far, we can only break the boat, only in this way, can the tide of the war be reversed."

"Oh, how does the Su Overseer want to break the cauldron, his subordinates are very curious, and I hope that the Overseer will make it clear."

Not long after Su Qi'an's words fell, below, a man with a sturdy body and a scarred face, holding his hands on his chest, asked.

Looking at the clothes, this person is a commander, second only to Li Sheng and several other lieutenant generals, and he is also a high authority in the army.

This person's opening immediately caused a chorus of echoes behind him, and he looked a little prestigious.

Su Qi'an glanced at the leader who asked the question, and then said, "Today's Mengzhou City has less than 30,000 available troops, plus the troops brought by this overseer, a total of about 50,000, in the face of 70,000 honored soldiers, continue to retreat in Mengzhou City, sooner or later they will be consumed to death." ”

"Instead of waiting to be beaten passively, it is better to take the initiative to attack, scatter all the 50,000 troops in the only four military towns, and continue to retreat one after another, at least there is room for buffer."

"It's a big deal to retreat to Mengzhou City in the middle in the end, at least it is much better not to let the Rongbing soldiers who go south take the four military towns without much effort."

"As long as we drag on, the more favorable the war will be for us, and then the war in Ganzhou will be basically controlled, whether it is to ask for help from the imperial court or support from Ganzhou, there will be more than enough time..."

As soon as Su Qi'an's words fell, the commander with a full face immediately interjected.

"Hmph, I kind of understand, the so-called destruction of the Overseer is to use our Mengzhou soldiers as cannon fodder, counting on the rescue of Ganzhou? If this commander is a three-year-old child, you are doing this just to keep Ganzhou, and ignore our Mengzhou. ”

"The Su Overseer's shipwreck is really high, since this is the case, the commander will not accompany him, let's go!"

"Zhang Bao, you are bold!" Li Sheng's face was gloomy and he shouted loudly.

But Li Sheng's reprimand, Zhang Bao ignored it at all, and sneered, "Although you are a deputy general, you are not the head of this commander, the head of this commander has already died in battle, even the commander has died in battle, and you can't order me yet." ”

"Zhang Bao, you!" Li Sheng's face was pale, and he just wanted to attack, but was stopped by Su Qi'an.

He still had a smile on his face, and said lightly to Zhang Bao, "Commander Zhang Bao has concerns, this overseer can understand, since he wants to leave, this overseer is not easy to stay, so let's do it, as long as Commander Zhang Bao hands over the military power in his hand, resigns from the position of commander, and thinks that Your Excellency has fought for Mengzhou for many years, you can leave safely as a civilian, how about it?" ”

Su Qi'an's words made Zhang Bao stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing, and the laughter was full of thick mockery.

He pointed at Su Qi'an's nose and sneered, "I thought that the overseer sent by the imperial court was a powerful character, but now it seems that it is not as good as waste, hahaha, today is an eye-opener for this commander." ”

Then the conversation changed and said viciously, "The surname Su, don't think that you have a background and become a fucking overseer, you can be lawless, give you face, call you the overseer, if you don't give face, you are a piece of shit!" ”

"You sons and brothers who enjoy the pleasures of the court, go and inquire, Mengzhou has not handed over the military power and resigned from the army! The surname is Su, don't be too self-righteous, you're in a hurry, Lao Tzu will do it with you! ”

Zhang Bao's scolding, a group of subordinates behind him also followed, and many other soldiers laughed and ridiculed.

Because of Zhang Bao's actions, the little dedication that was originally left to Su Qi'an is now completely gone.

As they imagined, the so-called overseers, who don't know where they came from, did not enjoy happiness in Kyoto, but went to the two states in the northwest to make military achievements.

Don't inquire, the military exploits of the two northwestern states are so easy to catch!

Don't look at Zhang Bao as a commander, but he is a full veteran, fierce in battle, not afraid of anyone, in terms of prestige, no worse than a deputy general like Li Sheng.

This gentleman's overseer, who is not good at standing up, just ran into Zhang Bao, the master, it seems that he is destined to not be able to get off the stage today.

Everyone's laughter, Su Qi'an was indifferent, and there was still a smile on his face, which was regarded as a manifestation of incompetence in the eyes of everyone, and the ridicule was even worse.

Su Qi'an looked at Zhang Bao and asked again, "Does Commander Zhang Bao plan to hand over his military power and insist on fighting to the end?" ”

"Hmph, if you want the commander to hand over the military power, it's very simple, you can get it yourself, the commander is standing here, surnamed Su, it depends on whether you have the ability."

Zhang Bao's rampant laughter, Su Qi'an could only shake his head helplessly, and said softly, "It's a pity, I gave a chance, but I don't cherish it, since I insist on looking for death, then send you on the road." ”

Su Qi'an's voice was not loud, but it clearly came into the stage and off the stage, and everyone's ears, especially Zhang Bao, couldn't lift their waists with laughter when they heard this.

While laughing, he helped his subordinates beside him, "I heard you right, this waste is going to be sent to the commander on the road, hahaha, isn't it hysteria!" ”

"Okay, well, this commander is standing here, I want to see how this waste sent me on my way!"
