Chapter 588: Grumpy Woman

Chen Yan looked at Huang Zhong and nodded on the surface, but his heart was full of worry.

As the so-called 100 days of injured muscles and bones, Huang Zhong's injury was not light, if it weren't for his strong muscles and excellent physique, it was very likely that one of his arms would be abolished at this time.

Although Huang Zhong said that he was going to go into battle to kill the enemy at this time, Chen Yan clearly knew that Huang Zhong would never be able to play in the Battle of Puyang, even if Huang Zhong insisted on doing so, for the sake of Huang Zhong's health and safety, Chen Yan would never let him fight.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan couldn't help but feel a little lost, after all, this time the battle of Liyang was too urgent, and the soldiers had not recovered from the last battle of Weishui, so they were so desperate, although the morale was high after the first battle, the fatigue of the entire army can be imagined.

Chen Yan's troops at this time were only 100,000, which was twice as many as the initial 200,000 troops, which also showed how many men and horses Chen Yan lost in this Central Plains Battle. Although he understood that Cao Cao's side probably only had less than 30,000 troops left at this time, this kind of fighting method of killing fish and breaking the net and burning jade was really not what Chen Yan wanted.

He is the great Sima of the Han Dynasty, and what he bears on his shoulders is the rise and fall of the entire Han Dynasty.

Xiliang, Hanzhong, Jiangdong, and Yizhou in the distance, not to mention, Yuan Shao in the near distance is a headache existence, in case Yuan Shao solves Gongsun Zhan at a lightning speed at this time, and then waves his troops south, then Chen Yan, who has a 100,000 tired army, can only sit and wait for death, so that Yuan Shao can pinch himself to death like an ant.

Fortunately, Yuan Shao didn't have this opportunity, and Chen Yan couldn't help but sweat every time he thought about it.

Over there, Huang Zhong had basically finished bandaging, and Chen Yan didn't want to bother more, so he retreated silently.

At this time, the night was deep, the winter night was very cold, and the city of Liyang was full of dead bodies, and the whole environment was even more gloomy.

Chen Yan let out a long sigh, and couldn't help but feel deeply guilty about the blood on his hands.

The people of the Han Dynasty, although their lives were in dire straits, but they did not have such corpses everywhere, they were originally just for dignity, for their livelihood, they had to rise up without revealing the rod, and fought for their dreams and lives, but now they have struggled to this point, except for death, they have not gained anything.

Chen Yan even wanted to ask those who had already died on the battlefield if it was worth it.

It's a pity that those people will never be able to answer Chen Yan, because they are already dead.

Chen Yan was tired from a hard day, fell asleep, and when he woke up the next day, he saw that Lu Lingqi was already sitting on the edge of his bed.

Chen Yan was startled, he was tired last night, he didn't even have a chance to see his child Xiao Fengxian, he wanted to get up early the next morning to play with his son for a while, but he suddenly saw Lu Lingqi at the head of the bed.

Lu Lingqi's eyes were red and swollen, obviously she didn't sleep last night, Chen Yan was not with her at this time because of Lu Lingqi's mood swings, and now when she saw Lu Lingqi, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Lu Lingqi looked at Chen Yan, her face was almost expressionless, she just asked mechanically, "When are you going to fight Puyang?" ”

"It's ...... problem again"

Chen Yan lamented in his heart, although Lu Lingqi had the pain of losing her father, but such frequent urging really made Chen Yan unhappy, not to mention that Chen Yan was exhausted at this time, and the soldiers under his command had reached the limit.

Chen Yan smiled bitterly and said, "We only took Liyang last night, do you want me to attack Puyang today?" ”

Chen Yan's tone of voice was a little excited, obviously because he was already a little tired of Lu Lingqi's persistent urging.

Although Chen Yan felt sorry for his wife for losing her father, he was also responsible for the 100,000 brothers under his command, and many of them were also fathers, and he must not harm more people because his wife lost his father.

"Why can't it be today?!"

Lu Lingqi seemed very dissatisfied.

"Because the soldiers under my command are tired, and General Huang Zhong has lost an arm, I can't let them take risks for me, and the price paid for such a eager march will be painful!"

Chen Yan said sharply.

Obviously, at this time, Chen Yan was ready to clash head-on with Lu Lingqi, although Lu Lingqi was his wife, but Chen Yan must not indulge her, after all, soldiers, national affairs, a battle is likely to decide the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people, Chen Yan must not be hasty.

"You ......" Lu Lingqi's face turned pale, obviously a little mad by Chen Yan's fierce words, she was already emotional at this time, and when she heard Chen Yan's refusal, she felt that the whole world began to spin.

Chen Yan saw Lu Lingqi's angry appearance, his heart softened, and he hurriedly said softly: "Lord Yue's revenge, we must avenge it, but I definitely can't remember, I have 100,000 soldiers under my command, don't you care about their lives?" ”

Lu Lingqi was angry at this time, how could she listen to Chen Yan's persuasion, she gritted her teeth violently, and said: "They are just soldiers, soldiers died on the battlefield, and horse leather shrouds, that is their best destination!" ”

Chen Yan hurriedly shook his head and said, "They are all living lives, how can they be so cruel......

Lu Lingqi didn't stop at all, frowned, and said, "I don't think you're worried about their lives, it's you who are worried about your own lives!" ”

Chen Yan didn't expect that Lu Lingqi would suddenly become so aggressive, he sighed and was silent, in this matter, Chen Yan must not be able to compromise, because of the attack on Liyang, the soldiers under Chen Yan have lost too much, and as the commander of the first army, he must be responsible for his subordinates.

However, Lu Lingqi did not give Chen Yan the slightest room to relax, she stood up suddenly, stomped her feet, and said: "I will give you three days, and after three days, if you don't send troops, I will send troops for you!" ”

Speaking of this, Lu Lingqi grabbed the door and left, Chen Yan looked at Lu Lingqi's figure, and was stunned and didn't know what to say...... Although Chen Yan had always known that Lu Lingqi was a rude and willful character, he didn't expect this character to become so obstructive at this critical moment.

Cao Cao is no one else, he is a rare hero in the world, and in history, Cao Cao once staged a Jedi counterattack with less to win more, so Chen Yan never dared to be careless in the face of Cao Cao, who only had one Puyang City left.

And now Lu Lingqi wants to use her own strength to disrupt Chen Yan's rhythm, which Chen Yan absolutely cannot allow.
