Chapter 624: Old Scheming

Murong Yanchao is not afraid of death, but he is just afraid of Zongxin. However, Li Jing's words also reminded him that people who are not even afraid of death have nothing to be afraid of? Death is not a terrible thing, as soon as the eyes are closed and the legs are kicked, what is there to be afraid of?

"Your Majesty's lesson is that the last general has been taught. Murong Yanchao suddenly recovered his spirit and said: "Isn't it just a dead word? What's so terrible? What people are most afraid of should be living without a name, and it doesn't matter if there is a monument after death." As long as you can do a great job in life, it doesn't matter what happens. This time I'm going against Zongxin, and I'm going to see his methods. Your Majesty, is there any good way?"

"No~!"

"Okay~~!I'm starting to get scared again......" Murong Yanchao originally thought that Li Jing had some good way, so he said it with such confidence, but in the end, he was almost the same as himself, but he was a little bolder. What's the matter? Anyone would say nice things, and they thought he was a great person, but that's it, even though he was not qualified to criticize him.

The two were silent for a long time, and the people around them did not dare to speak. Because in this case, their decision will directly lead to the life and death of everyone in the entire Weizhou City, I don't know how they will decide, but in Li Hongmao's heart, he doesn't want to go to war, he wants to escape from Weizhou City immediately, so that no matter whether Murong Yanchao is dead or alive, as long as he is alive.

Li Hongmao has begun to regret coming to Weizhou, and he has not done anything serious when he stays in the city all day without making an inch. And when you are fighting, you can't eat, drink and have fun too blatantly, these months are simply not people's lives. Or go back to Jinling to be your own little prince to live the fastest, why do you have nothing to do to run to a place where this kind of bird doesn't?

Li Jing suddenly said, "General Murong, how many people are there in Weizhou now?"

"In addition to the 50,000 Tang Army, there are only 40,000 soldiers and horses in my hands. If it's just defending the city, there shouldn't be any danger. Murong Yanchao was still very strange when he said it, because Li Jing knew these things very well in his heart, why did he ask knowingly? Could it be that he wanted to harm himself? Now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, he won't be so stupid.

Li Jing said: "Guo Wei has 100,000 horses in the west city of Weizhou, but the number is not much different. Actually, I'm thinking about another question, what will happen if we defeat Zongxin here? As the saying goes, if you know that you will win every battle, if you want to defeat Zongxin, you have to take it by surprise. Zongxin thought that we only had 90,000 troops here, so he would definitely attack the city. In terms of Zongxin's conceited character, he not only wanted to attack the city, but also exterminate all the people in the entire Weizhou. If we don't do anything, we will only be dead, and although I don't know what Zongxin can do, he will definitely be able to do it. ”

Murong Yanchao nodded and said, "I also think he can do it." After all, he did the impossible, and did it far better than we imagined. ”

"Yes~!We were all too optimistic before, so this time we thought of the worst ending, just like Zongxin could really break the city gate this time and slaughter all of us. Then the question arises, how will he break through the city gates of Weizhou's 90,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city, and how will he drive us to the end? No matter what he does, he must enter the city, right? ”

"Of course, if you don't enter the city, what is a siege?"

Li Jing nodded and said, "If after Zong Xin enters the city, a few people suddenly come out and let the Zhou army suffer from the enemy, what will be the result?"

Murong Yanchao thought about it for a while, Li Jing's method was indeed available. Think of the outcome first as the worst, and then make a living from the worst. Although this is not the way to use soldiers, there is no way to face a master like Zongxin.

"That being said, where did we get the troops to besiege the Zhou army again?"

Li Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Li Hongmao listens to the order." ”

"Erchen is in ......"

Li Hongmao was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, what is his father doing? Could he let himself fight Zongxin? This is absolutely impossible, in terms of his own ability, even if he brings hundreds of thousands of more troops, he will be crushed by Zongxin, this is no longer a matter of rank, it is simply a dimensional gap. He doesn't even need to use his head and think of a plan with his ass to abuse himself to the point of doubting his life.

Li Jing said: "You go and inform General Huangfu and Chen Jue, you will rush back to the Tang Dynasty immediately with 5,000 men and horses, you go to Huaizhou, General Huangfu will go to Huainan, Chen Jue will go to Suzhou, after arriving, immediately move troops to help, if they do not send troops to attack the city directly, they will also send troops to take the head of Fu Yin." Gather fifty miles outside the city, listen to my orders, and be ready to send troops against the siege of the Zhou army at any time. Remember my Datang Glory, do you understand?"

Li Hongmao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Erchen understands." ”

"Do you really understand? Say it again. ”

"Erchen went to Huaizhou, General Huangfu went to Huainan, Chen Jue went to Suzhou, we each brought 5,000 men and horses, and forced the main general to send troops to help. Assemble fifty miles outside the city and be ready to counterattack at any time. ”

Li Jing frowned, and then said, "What else?"

"It's gone. ”

", have you forgotten the glory of my Datang? This battle is only allowed to be won, not defeated. Tell General Huangfu that you must put the glory of my Tang Dynasty first, and whoever dares not to send troops will kill that person's head and behead him. ”

"Yes. ”

Li Jing waved his hand and said, "Go and go back quickly." ”

"The retainer retired. Li Hongmao immediately left Murong Mansion, and then rushed to the temporary residence of Huangfu Jixun.

Li Jing looked back at Murong Yanchao, Murong Yanchao was very surprised at this time, he didn't expect Li Jing to be so righteous, now that the troops are insufficient, he actually forcibly conscripted troops and forced the defenders of the three cities to send troops to help. And each of them also left with 5,000 troops, and if these people refused to send troops, they would be beheaded. Such arrogance...... It is hard to believe that this is the order of Li Jing.

"General Murong, when we defend the city, we can pretend to be defeated, and let them enter the city smoothly. Anyway, there is not much difference in the strength of the troops, and it will not affect us much if they let them enter the city to fight, just wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and then they will be the real belly and back of the enemy, and no matter how powerful Zong Xin is, it will be a dead end. ”

"Okay~" Murong Yanchao said excitedly: "Your Majesty is really scheming, I can't imagine that there is such a method of using troops." If you think about it carefully, as long as the reinforcements arrive, you will definitely be able to kill him without leaving a piece of armor. ”

Li Jing smiled confidently, which also made Murong Yanchao see Li Jing's mental activities, he was very confident in this plan, it seems that it is not yet known who will kill the deer.

But in fact, at this time, Li Jing's confident identity was not this plan for himself, but another plan, slowly transferring troops out of Weizhou, and then watching Murong Yanchao fend for himself. Although I am very sorry for Murong Yanchao for doing this, there is no other way at this time.

In fact, Li Jing thought about letting Murong Yanchao return to Huainan with him, as long as he arrived in Huainan, the Zhou army would not dare to attack, at most, he would return Xuzhou City to Guo Wei, and there would be no loss.

This approach is actually the most gentle and peaceful, but there is a problem with it. Murong Yanchao has 40,000 troops in his hands, he really doesn't have the money to raise these 40,000 troops, and he can't let Murong Yanchao always take these 40,000 troops to eat and drink in his own territory, and these 40,000 troops are loyal to the Han, and they are loyal to Murong Yanchao, and they are not soldiers brought out by themselves, so they are not trustworthy at all, what if there are Zongxin's spies in this?

After weighing it repeatedly, Li Jing finally decided to abandon Murong Yanchao and continue to maintain a confrontation with Guo Wei without provoking each other. In fact, it's really a pity to do this, and it's a bit lacking in morality, but I really can't afford to raise this extra 40,000 troops, and I don't want to raise soldiers who don't belong to me. The financial situation is tight, and the emptiness of the treasury has always been Li Jing's biggest headache, how can he cause trouble for himself again?

Murong Yanchao didn't trust Li Jing 100%, in fact, according to his idea, he still hoped to go directly to Huainan and not have a head-on conflict with Zongxin, so as not to annihilate the whole army. But if Li Jing wants to fight, he will accompany him to fight, and then find a way to escape after losing, anyway, his martial arts are high, as long as he wants to escape, no one can stop him.

Murong Yanchao's only worry is his family, but now it's okay. Liu Chengjun arrived here, and when Liu Chengjun recuperated from his injuries for a few days, he asked him to take all his family members away. The most important thing is his wife Xue Ruyu, she is the daughter of King Xue, if she has any damage, she can't explain it.

Li Jing said: "General Murong, this time is a little harder. Be prepared to defend the city, as the saying goes, be prepared, and when Zongxin and them attack, let this grandson know how powerful we are. Zongxin is extremely conceited, and believes that this is his biggest weakness. As long as we grasp this weakness, we will definitely be able to defeat him. ”

"It makes sense, Zongxin is indeed conceited. More than 10,000 people dared to fight 80,000 people, and he won. He has this right to be conceited. Murong Yanchao said: "Zongxin is indeed powerful, I hope this plan can be successful, otherwise...... We all have to die in Weizhou City. ”

"That is, if you don't have the determination to break the boat, how can you fight with Zong Xin?"

Murong Yanchao nodded slightly in agreement, thinking about it carefully, every time Zongxin was in ruin, looking for life in a desperate situation. If you want to fight with Zong Xin, you must also maintain this mentality, how can it be so easy to win? Just accompany Li Jing to gamble, it doesn't matter if you win or lose anyway, it's a big deal for you to go to Huainan, or go to the Northern Han, anyway, the martial arts are so high, it's not so easy to die.

"Well, that's it for now. Li Jing said: "Let's go and take a look at the barracks together, and prepare everything that should be prepared." You can't be lazy anymore, this time it's either him dead or we're alive. ”

"Hmm!"

Li Jing deliberately followed Murong Yanchao, the reason was very simple, he only made one holy decree, and he didn't give himself a chance to make a second holy decree, so that Murong Yanchao would not be suspicious. The courtiers naturally did not dare to disobey the holy decree, as long as Li Hongmao and his party left Weizhou, they must be going to carry out their holy decree.

But in fact, Li Jing's holy decree had other meanings, and Murong Yan couldn't hear it. He also thought that Li Hongmao and his party were going to move troops to rescue, but they were just leading the troops back to defense. Li Jing's holy decree was to completely abandon Weizhou, but he didn't want to suffer losses, and his reputation didn't want to be tarnished, and he was also worried about Murong Yanchao's threat.
