Chapter 168

In Wucheng, they were all in full array, waiting for the attack of the Chu army.

However, the Chu army has not moved, and even Gongsun Qi arrived with reinforcements, but the Chu army did not move.

At sunset, the shadow of the city wall covered the entire city, and several figures stood tall on the city wall.

"Whew!"

In the spring breeze, the white cloak was blown whirring.

Qin Yu stood on the city wall, holding his arms, quietly looking at the Chu army camp in the distance.

"Look at your appearance, the Chu army didn't attack, you seem to be very disappointed." Li Yue, wearing a mask, walked up to the city wall.

"It's not that I hope the Chu army will attack the city, it's just that I don't want the Chu army to run away, don't forget our purpose."

"If the Chu army runs, what can you do to chase the Chu army?" Li Yue looked at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu took a deep breath, "What affects the retreat of the Chu army is nothing more than two factors, one is grain and grass, and the other is the intention of the king of Chu. ”

"Grain and grass, we can just send it to them, but the intention of the King of Chu is not good to influence!"

Li Yue smiled and said, "Should you laugh at you for being stupid, or laugh at you for being stupid?" ”

"Now that the two armies are facing each other, it is difficult for the Chu army to retreat so easily, unless we don't want to fight."

Qin Yu was suddenly struck by lightning, and he seemed to be really stupid.

However, in order to alleviate what he had just done, Qin Yu took out a piece of brocade from his arms and handed it to Li Yue.

"What is this?" Li Yue asked.

"Help you write a battle report, and send someone to the Beijing Division." Qin Yu looked at the Chu army camp and said.

Li Yue opened the brocade and read the contents carefully.

There are two main contents, one is to report that Huai County was attacked by the Chu army and was blocked by his own troops.

The second is to ask the court for help, as for the officials who came from Beijing, there is not a word in it.

At this time, Qin Yu said: "After you send out this battle report, I will also write a letter and send it to the court." ”

"You still write one? Why? ”

"Let the court know that Cangxian is not a monolith, you and I are fighting for power here, creating a situation where two tigers are fighting, and the court will watch quietly." Qin Yu explained with a smile.

"My father said that those who play intrigue are the dirtiest." Li Yue under the mask glanced at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu shrugged his shoulders and did not refute.

Because Qin Yu also agrees with this sentence very much, but this world is a world that wants to play with intrigue and trickery.

······

At this time, in the camp of the Chu army, the main general Lu Cheng felt a dilemma.

In the previous two days, the reason why Lu Cheng did not continue to attack the city was because Lu Cheng thought that the reinforcements of the Tang army had arrived in Wucheng.

So Lu Cheng directly gave up continuing to attack the city, and Lu Cheng didn't expect that the main reinforcements of the Tang Army would only arrive in Wucheng today.

Lu Cheng has already reported to the King of Chu, and now he is waiting for news from the King of Chu.

However, Lu Cheng had already guessed something, this time it was the war that Chu State provoked first, and if Chu State wanted to retreat with all its might, it would have to pay a certain price no matter what.

In the battle of Zhao Chu, the vitality of the Chu State was greatly damaged, and this time it was originally for revenge.

If the Chu army retreats before the city is captured, it will inevitably become the laughing stock of the world.

"Alas! Teacher, what would you do if you were still here? Lu Cheng closed his eyes helplessly, only feeling extremely weak.

At this time, the guard came in and reported: "General, the major general asks to see." ”

A hint of gloom flashed in Lu Cheng's eyes, but it was quickly hidden.

"Let him in."

"No."

"Uncle Cheng! The army has been resting for two days, why not attack the city! As soon as Xiang Yu came in, he questioned Lu Cheng.

The corners of Lu Cheng's mouth twitched, but he still showed a smiling face.

"Yu'er, don't be impatient."

"Now that the Tang Army's reinforcements have arrived, the fighters have been lost, and a rash attack will only increase casualties." Lu Cheng patiently explained.

"What if the reinforcements of the Tang Army arrive, Uncle Cheng, you are my grandfather's protégé, is it because of the reinforcements of the Tang Army?" Xiang Yu didn't hear it at all, but Lu Cheng was afraid.

The corners of Lu Cheng's mouth twitched, he was the main general, and he was Xiang Yu's elder, but he was actually said so by Xiang Yu.

Lu Cheng endured the breath in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Yu'er, if you want to fight, you can take people to the city gate tomorrow to call for battle, but you must not attack the city without permission!" ”

Xiang Yu was angry in his heart, but when he heard Lu Cheng say this, he immediately became excited.

happily arched his hand and said, "Thank you Uncle Cheng!" Tomorrow I will kill a few more enemy generals! To strengthen the morale of our army! ”

"Alright, stand down." Lu Cheng waved his hand, he really didn't want to see Xiang Yu.

"Teacher, I'm afraid that there is no one in the Xiang family who can inherit your inheritance." Lu Cheng sighed helplessly.

Xiang Feng had three sons, but they were all trained by Xiang Feng to become civil officials.

And Xiang Yu is currently the only one in the Xiang family, and the Xiang family who has entered the army.

Lu Cheng originally wanted to train Xiang Yu to become a general, but at present, it seems that Xiang Yu's temperament is too anxious, and it is impossible to reach the height of a teacher.

"Anyway, the white-robed general in the Tang army is extraordinary, I hope I can teach Yu'er a lesson."

The next day.

Xiang Yu put on his armor early, took his black spear, and rode his red date-colored war horse.

"Wait with me today! See how I slay the enemy generals! Xiang Yu let out loud words.

Behind him, there were 30,000 horses that Lu Cheng transferred to Xiang Yu to make a strong voice, and after hearing Xiang Yu's bold words, they also responded one after another.

"Wait!" At this time, Lu Cheng came with someone and called out to Xiang Yu.

"Uncle Cheng, you won't regret it, right," Xiang Yu asked with a frown.

"Do you look like Uncle Cheng is someone who will regret it?" Lu Cheng beckoned, and the soldier immediately sent a set of saddles over.

"If you install this, you can't end up losing on the equipment."

"Uncle Xie Cheng!" Xiang Yu turned over and dismounted, happily loading this set of equipment on his horse.

"Good, go now! Let Tang Jun see the majesty of Xiang Jiaerlang! Lu Cheng patted Xiang Yu on the shoulder arrogantly.

"No!" Xiang Yu happily turned over his horse, and then led the men and horses out of the camp directly.

Lu Chengmu sent Xiang Yu away, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

"Is there any news from the king?" Lu Cheng asked.

The deputy general on the side arched his hand and said: "The king has an order, not to retreat, waiting for the opportunity to attack the city and force the Tang State to negotiate peace." ”

Lu Cheng nodded, he had just gotten all the news, which gave Lu Cheng the confidence to fight.

"I didn't expect Tang Guo to block the news so tightly, and the news only came out now."

"Now that the Tang Kingdom is unstable, it is our opportunity." Lu Cheng smiled and looked at Wucheng in front of him.

The adjutant general said at this time: "General, the king said that if necessary, he can unite with Jiang Wu of Qi and swallow Huaijun of Tang State." ”

"Jiang Wu!" Lu Cheng's eyes narrowed, this third prince of Qi is not an easy master to deal with.

"Let's take a look at the situation again, maybe we don't need to talk about it, this third prince of Qi will be impatient." Lu Cheng turned around and returned to the Chinese army's tent.
