In the Great Zhou army, everyone is slowly approaching Luzhou. learned that Luzhou was besieged by thousands of Northern Han troops, so he immediately rushed to the rescue. It's just that after arriving in Luzhou, Chai Rong felt that something was wrong.

Chai Rong said: "Li Yun, didn't you say that the Northern Han army attacked Luzhou, and you were forced to abandon the city and flee because you were forced to flee? At this time, Luzhou was not breached, and you, as the main general, abandoned the city and fled, and you were afraid of fighting with the enemy, what should you do?"

Chai Rong saw that the banner of the Zhou army was still fluttering on the city wall, and the soldiers at the city gate were also wearing the armor and uniforms of the Zhou army. The city wall of Luzhou has obviously been reinforced, and from a distance, you can still see some people stepping up their defensive offensive, which is clearly the appearance of defending the city.

"Where's the spy, the spy is coming. ”

"Newspaper~~"

"How many Northern Han troops are there ahead?"

The spy said: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the rough estimate of a few of us, there are probably less than 10,000 Northern Han troops, these people have already set up camp, it seems that they can't attack for a long time, and everyone is tired." The city gates on the west and north sides of Luzhou City were seriously damaged, and it seemed that the Northern Han army had attacked the city more than once, and it was almost successful, but it was finally defended. ”

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Li Ying said: "Your Majesty, you have to believe Weichen, that day Weichen saw that the Northern Han army was attacking fiercely, our army suffered heavy losses, and Luzhou City could not be defended at all." Wechen had no choice but to abandon the city and flee. ”

Chai Rong said angrily: "Nonsense, drag it down first and take strict care of it." After the battle is won, the punishment will be carried out. ”

"Your Majesty......" Fan said: "Please listen to Weichen." ”

Say. "Chai Rong actually doesn't like Fan Zhen either, because Fan Zhen is Zongxin's brother-in-law and a member of the Lei Wangfu. However, Fan Zhen is indeed useful, and he is very loyal to the first emperor, if it were not for this, he would really want to remove him from his official position.

Chai Rong is also very helpless, it is indeed difficult to find someone like Fan Zhen who has good military skills, good governance, and good martial arts. Because of its exemplary martial arts, it is definitely the top among civil officials, and even among military generals, it is also a first-class talent.

Fan Zhen said: "Your Majesty, suppose Li Jing is telling the truth. So...... According to the minister's speculation, this was Liu Chong's strategy. If Liu Chong had already occupied Luzhou City, but hoisted the flag of our Great Zhou Army, anyone who saw it would think that the current Luzhou City was just besieged and needed reinforcements. In fact, if we dare to attack the Han army, and when Liu Chong rushes out of the city, the front and rear are trapped, how will our army deal with it at that time?"

Fan Zhen is really smart, and he knows that there is a cat in it at a glance. Li Jing was not so stupid, and fled out of the city before it was broken. Although it may be that Li Ying is timid and afraid, it is better to be cautious in this situation.

Chai Rong really admires Fan Zhen's mind, if it weren't for this, he would be able to cut his official just because he was Zongxin's brother-in-law. This situation is really troublesome, if the Northern Han army is hiding in the city of Luzhou, then what should be done? Directly attack the city? No, if the city is attacked here, nearly 10,000 Northern Han troops outside the city rush over to cover it, and then the people in the city rush out, isn't the situation the same?

Otherwise, it would be a good way to surround Luzhou City. But there is still a danger, whether to close the encirclement or to divide the encirclement? If the encirclement is divided, it will inevitably be broken one by one, and it is useless to close the encirclement.

Chai Rong nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Lord Fan is similar to what I thought, how should I deal with this situation?"

"Your Majesty is wise, and the minister thinks that regardless of Luzhou, it is best to send troops to Weizhou directly, and it is best to merge with the Song valve first. ”

Chai Rong was not happy when he saw Fan Qian, but Fan Zhen's strategy was really powerful, and he could even think of such a plan as Luzhou. What are you here for this time? Seeing that the Northern Han army didn't care about it, they just walked away...... There are more than 30,000 soldiers here, and they fled without fighting a battle, which is too shameless.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that as long as he is not trapped, it will be okay to attack directly." We have more than 30,000 men and horses, and 5,000 soldiers and horses will break the Han army outside the city, and the remaining soldiers and horses will be used to attack the city and drag down the army in the city. After the ministers completely annihilated the army outside the city, they surrounded Luzhou and sent troops to reinforce it. This place is not Liu Chong's territory, as long as he is trapped here, Liu Chong will die. ”

Now that the enemy is in the dark, I am in the dark, and I am in the light, do you know how many troops the Northern Han Dynasty has planted in the city of Luzhou? The other party is waiting for work, and our army may not be able to withstand it. Although General Zhao is brave and good at fighting, you can't guarantee that there are no people like General Zhao in the city, and perhaps by the time you completely annihilate the army outside the city, the formation of the army in the city has been disrupted. It is a taboo for soldiers to suffer from the enemy on the back of the abdomen, and if they do not reach the end of the head, they will be defeated. ”

Zhao Kuangyin took a deep breath, feeling very unhappy, although Fan Zhen was right, but in front of so many people, he couldn't get off the stage, so he really rushed up and beat him.

"Which general still has a way to break the enemy, even if he comes, I will definitely be rewarded. ”

Murong Yanzhao said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Master Fan said is very right, and he should not be beaten openly at this time. Luzhou has been lost, it is better to meet with the Song lord first, now our army is tired of rushing soldiers for days, and the other party may not be able to win by waiting for work. ”

Li Chongjin said: "Your Majesty...... The minister thought that Zhang Yongde was smarter, and he must have a good way. ”

Zhang Yongde pouted and said: "Directly attack the army outside the city, and then the army will mock Liu Chong in the city." Your Majesty, this time I listened to Weichen's words, Weichen dared to guarantee with his head, as long as he fought like this, the Northern Han Dynasty would be defeated. ”

Everyone looked at Zhang Yongde in surprise, was he crazy? Or was he too tired from the journey, so he was sick. This is also called a plan? Directly attack the army outside the city, and when the Northern Han army in the city rushes out and flanks the front and back, let alone win, it will be difficult to even survive. The Northern Han army in the city didn't dare to provoke at all, and Zhang Yongde even said that he was visiting to mock ...... Zhang Yongde definitely hasn't had a good rest these days, so he's crazy.

"Pony, you've drunk too much. Although Chai Rong was very embarrassed, he was his brother-in-law anyway, and he had to give a little face. It's a bit inappropriate to say that he's crazy, so it's okay to say that he drank too much.

"Your Majesty, I haven't drunk anything today. But you can drink the celebration wine soon, you must listen to me this time, uncle, I am a big Zhou horse, and I will definitely not harm you. Zhang Yongde said: "Although I don't know what the situation is, as long as I attack the army outside the city, I will definitely win, and it will be a big victory." ”

After Zhang Yongde said this, the people who originally thought he was crazy suddenly felt that he was not crazy, and he was very shrewd. Because Zhang Yongde said that he didn't know what the situation was, he just knew what to do. Obviously, there was a person Zhang Yongde trusted very much who gave him this idea, Zhang Yongde did not have the slightest suspicion about this person, and was even willing to pay for his own life and that of the whole army.

Needless to say, everyone guessed who this person was. This method must have been given to him by Zong Xin, so Zhang Yongde knew that it was a trap and jumped into the trap. But what is the opinion on this? Since the Northern Han Dynasty has come up with such a trap, it must have a complete victory, otherwise it is better to directly assemble a large army and fight the Zhou army head-on.

This is an obvious trap, Liu Chong just wants to flank Zhou Jun back and forth, so he will come up with this strategy. Although Liu Chong is not very smart, he has fought all his life and has a very high attainment in the art of war. Jumping straight into the trap, what kind of plan is this?

Could it be that there are not many Han troops in the city, so they can win a big victory by rushing directly over it?

Many people shook their heads, there were nearly 10,000 troops outside the city, and there were at least 20,000 or 30,000 troops in the city. What is Master Zongxin thinking? Is it because he does not have enough understanding, or is Master Zongxin's idea too profound? Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Zhang Yongde is crazy, and now there is only this explanation.

Chai Rong said: "Don the horse, come over a little." ”

Zhang Yongde immediately rode to Chai Rong's face, and then whispered: "Your Majesty, is there something wrong?"

"What kind of broken idea is this? It's obviously a trap, and you have to jump into it obviously? Are you a fool to be in the Northern Han army?"

Zhang Yongde said: "The minister really doesn't know, before Zong Xin left Bianliang, he gave the minister three tips, and he said that he would open one when the minister thought it was dangerous." After folding, this is what is written in the first bag. Your Majesty, the minister has no ability, but at least there is no problem with vision and cognition, everyone knows how powerful Zongxin is, Zongxin's method has never failed, and every time we don't know what's going on. ”

Chai Rong really hated Zongxin to death, but his methods were indeed very powerful. It's just that...... This time it's too incomprehensible. What exactly does Zongxin want to say?

Fan Zhen said: "Your Majesty, with the minister's understanding of Zongxin, his methods will definitely help us defeat the enemy to victory." Although the reason is unknown, the method is still very simple, just rush over and cut it. ”

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Your Majesty, let's not use this method." Zong Xin is a sinister and cunning person, and the minister has been with him all the year round, so he knows Zong Xin's character too well. If it works, everyone will praise it, but if it doesn't...... Those who use this method are all killed, so it doesn't work and it won't be passed on. This is the usual method of Zongxin, he is not omnipotent, but no one knows his stain. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, how can you see through Master Zongxin's use of soldiers? Do you have the ability to kill 50,000 people with one move?" Li Chongjin admires Zong Xin very much, although Li Chongjin is good friends with Zhao Kuangyin, but when it comes to giving advice, Zhao Kuangyin is simply a layman. Although Zongxin's method is incomprehensible, it is because it is too profound, since you can't understand it, don't look at it, you only need to implement it to win.

Getting closer and closer to Luzhou City, countless pairs of eyes were staring at Chai Rong. Chai Rong was called a hate in his heart, Zong Xin's method really couldn't be understood, how could anyone jump into it knowing that it was a trap? Even so, Chai Rong also knew that Zong Xin was powerful, his plan didn't need to be understood by others, he just needed others to implement it.
