Chapter 894: Desperate Invitation (II)

"Although Tongguan is dangerous, it is all guarded in front of the pass, if the enemy wants to resist our army, the main force will go out of the pass to meet the ......" Su Jia said with an excited expression, "Even so, the enemy's main general will definitely fight...... In this battle, the terrain in front of the main army was complicated, although General Qin Yu had the experience of leading troops to attack the city, he could mostly deploy the cavalry; the mountains were dangerous, and it was difficult for the cavalry to spread, and it was difficult to achieve success without seeking to change the formation, so the last general thought that General Qin Yu was a little unsafe in commanding the main force in this battle——"

The words are true, but Su Jia suddenly said this, it seems that everyone who knows her knows what Su Jia thinks in her heart. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Reasonable......" Chang Yuchun did not object, and asked instead, "Then who does the imperial envoy think should lead the main front?"

"Leave it to the last general!" Su Jia's eyes were calm, and he was categorical.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised, especially Xiao Tian who was beside him, he knew very well the reason why Su Jia was desperate to ask for Ying - she wanted to settle with Chen Shijin as soon as possible.

"Imperial envoy Su you?" Chang Yuchun didn't understand the grievances of the Wind Chasing faction, as far as the pre-military strategy was concerned, Su Jia's decision was really unclear, so he simply doubted, "Even if the cavalry led by General Qin Yu is not proper, but he still has the experience of attacking the city for a long time...... In the battle under the command of General Su, there are few commanders who do not say anything, and there is no record of attacking the city, so it is even more unsafe to rashly serve as the main general of the siege......

However, Su Jia was unyielding and insisted on resolutely: "In the battle of the city, the main general must be the last general! General Chang, please be sure to let the last general move forward, if there is a crime after the war, the last general is willing to bear it alone!"

"Jia'er......" Xiao Tian said faintly worried-he knew very well that this was a rare opportunity to fight Chen Shijin, and Su Jia definitely didn't want to miss it, even if he risked his life, he would not hesitate to do so.

"Sister Su, is the purpose Chen Shijin......" Lu Jing saw through Su Jia's thoughts at a glance. Unlike Xiao Tian, Lu Jing didn't have any worries, she seemed to have already guessed the beginning and end of the battle, and looking at Su Jia's expression, she was inexplicably a little sad......

Chang Yuchun was still hesitating, after all, the frontal battlefield was by no means child's play, and there could be no mistakes, and it was too risky to hand it over to Su Jia, a general who had never conquered the city and unified the army......

"General Chang, please believe in the last general!-" Su Jia's expression was very excited, as if as long as he could kill Chen Shijin, he could pay all the price.

Chang Yuchun turned his eyes to look at Lu Jing, and couldn't help asking: "Lieutenant soldiers of the pioneer battalion, you know better than General Ben...... Army Division, what do you think about this?" It seems that Chang Yuchun still wants to listen to the opinions of Lu Jing and others.

Lu Jing was expressionless, as if she had already counted in her heart, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, the focus of this battle is to attack on the side, as long as the main force of the enemy army is dragged in the front, a general with experience in commanding the army can change anyone...... Before the battle of Chengguan, just pay attention to the drumming array must be high-profile to attract the attention of the enemy......"

"Sister Jing......" After listening to Lu Jing's calm words, Xiao Tian couldn't help but be shocked - with Lu Jing's scheming, it was impossible for her not to know that Su Jia's urgency was because of Chen Shijin's relationship......

Qin Yu looked at Su Jia from the side, although he didn't know the reason for the matter, but he felt that Su Jia's attitude was extremely urgent to invite Ying to fight this time, and it was true that the cavalry he led was not good and dangerous, so he simply "pleaded" with Chang Yuchun and said: "General Chang, the last general thinks that General Su's request for war this time is not unreasonable...... Moreover, the purpose of the main force in this battle is not to attack the city, but to delay; in the land of mountains and wilderness, General Su's experience is indeed higher than that of the last general, and the last general implores General Chang for permission......"

When Su Jia heard this, she cast a grateful gaze from Qin Yu, and her eyes were also full of expectation.

"Okay......" After several conclusions, Chang Yuchun finally relented, "Since the Imperial Envoy Su is confident, the frontal battlefield of this battle will be handed over to the Imperial Envoy Su to lead the whole army......"

"General Xie Chang—" Please get permission, Su Jia replied excitedly.

"However......" Chang Yuchun didn't finish speaking, his eyes were determined, "This battle is aimed at delaying the enemy's main force, not a strong battle...... If Su Yu uses his troops frivolously, and the losses of his troops are too great, this general has the right to deprive you of all your duties and powers in the army-"

Xiao Tian saw it in his eyes and cast a worried look at Su Jia.

Su Jia did not hesitate, please get her life, Su Jia responded excitedly: "Yes, the last general will live up to the trust of the army-"

The decision is complete, and the army is on the march......

In Tongguan, Mengyuan is stationed......

"News from the spies at the front that the enemy troops are sitting on the main force of the division and are preparing to approach in the direction of our army-" Tong Chen received the latest information, ran back to the conference room at the first moment, and explained the situation to the main general Chen Shijin.

"These guys are really fast...... Sima Hanyi heard this, and said with a cold smile, "There was such a big movement in the night attack last night, and the losses in the army have not yet recovered, so they rushed to us to take revenge......

"On the Zhengguan Road, are you sure that the main force of the enemy army is coming from the front?" Chen Shijin asked calmly before the battle.

"Although the troops did not leave the camp, the direction of the division should be positive, and it would not be wrong-" Tong Chen said firmly.

"Frontal......" Chen Shijin muttered, "There is a dangerous situation in front of the Tongguan Pass, and if our army wants to resist the enemy, we can only send troops to the dangerous pass, ambush and garrison in front of the pass, and we can't let the enemy take away the pass......"

"The main force of the enemy army is attacking from the front, and our army also needs to defend the ...... with the main force," Sima Hanyi continued, "The army has always been menacing, it seems that General Chen, this time you have to meet the enemy head-on, you have to go out in person......"

"Don't be in a hurry first-" Chen Shijin still didn't panic, and asked in an orderly manner, "The enemy's main force is pressing the border, and I am afraid that it will not be able to break the siege for a while, so we must be prepared for a protracted battle...... General Tong, is the food, grass and armament in the army complete?"

At the moment of Tong Chen's war, he still said rigorously and seriously: "General Hui, the grain and grass are placed in the north of the city, close to the Chengguan, and can be transported at any time, as for the armament...... If the armaments are in the 'Amber Hill' outside the customs, if there is a shortage of war, it may take a long time, especially the transportation of gunpowder and weapons, which will be even more difficult......"

"In short, if our army is in a protracted war, we must make preparations in advance to take care of the military needs-" Sima Hanyi followed closely.

However, after a few considerations, Chen Shijin looked at the map in front of the case, seemed to understand something, and the corners of his mouth raised......

"No need, because this battle is not a protracted battle...... Chen Shijin smiled secretly.

"What are you talking about, it's not a protracted war?" Tong Chen didn't understand the situation, and couldn't help asking, "How can the enemy send the main force from the right path to attack our city...... Or is there any clever plan for General Chen to break the enemy?"

Chen Shijin shook his head and said unhurriedly: "No, the situation is not that complicated...... In fact, the enemy's intentions are obvious, and the main frontal force is just a feint, intended to delay the main force of our army. Tongguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is useless to use troops often, and they will not fail to understand this truth......"

"Then what is their purpose?" asked Sima Hanyi again.

"It's the grain trough!" Chen Shijin said categorically, "The frontal assault is just a pretense, but they want to delay the main force of our army -- their real purpose is to sneak attack our army's northern grain trough, so as to severely damage our army's grain and grass, so as to gain an advantage in a stalemate war in the future......"

is worthy of Chen Shijin, and he can see the intention of the vanguard army at a glance.

"You say that, it seems to make sense......" Tong Chen nodded, and then said, "In that case, we will set up heavy troops at the grain trough of the North Road, and we will not fight in front of the Zhengdao Pass-"

"No, the front pass of the righteous path is a heavily guarded place, and we ......can't lose it," Chen Shijin vetoed, "We can come up with a 'plan', after all, we don't need to use a lot of troops to deal with the 'thieves' who sneak attack the grain trough......"

"Then what are you going to do?" Tong Chen continued to ask.

"The front is still the main force to fight, and let them taste the hardships by the way after delaying......," Chen Shijin said with a secret smile, "As for the grain trough in the northern province...... As long as you set up an ambush, you can control everything!"

"In that case, how will the generals of the unified army be distributed?" Tong Chen asked again.

"And no matter how the enemy army plans, it must be the main ......force that is dispatched on the right path," Sima Hanyi also "stepped up" on the side, "Since it is the main force, among our army, General Chen does not have the ability to lead the army against the enemy, and the general who delays the troops head-on is none other than General Chen......"

"Don't worry, I don't know who the general of the enemy's main force is......" Tong Chen interjected on the side, "If Tang Zhan, the main general of the enemy army, comes, I won't give this opportunity to anyone!" At the moment of the war, Tong Chen was still thinking about the duel between himself and Tang Zhan.

"The main force is facing the battle, and eighty percent of the enemy army will also think that I, as the main general, will go out of the city to meet the enemy...... If it were me, the generals sent by the enemy army...... Maybe it's the vengeful Senior Sister Yi Yao......" Chen Shijin also knew about Su Jia's affairs in the pioneer camp, and said secretly in his heart, "Hmph, it's interesting, how to choose......? Or let's let her suffer once......" Thinking about it, Chen Shijin seemed to have made up his mind, and smiled coldly.

"How should the unified army be distributed, has it been decided?" Looking at Chen Shijin's expression, Sima Hanyi couldn't wait to ask on the side.

"Of course, I will assign the transfer ......of the troops next," Chen Shijin knew in his heart, so he instructed his subordinates to make arrangements......

The vanguard barracks, the troops of the Great Army have been dispatched......

According to the original strategic plan, the troops marched in two routes: one was the main army, led by Su Jia, who had asked for his fate, and the following was left and right, and the light cavalry led by Tang Zhan, under the cover of the main force pass, planned to attack the hinterland of the enemy's grain trough in the northern province......

The remaining generals such as Xiao Tian and Lu Jing stayed in the camp and stood by......

"Hey, what's going on?" Xiao Tian seemed to be anxious here, rushed into Lu Jing's tent, and asked, "Sister Jing, Jia'er is desperate to ask Ying to fight, obviously she is going for Chen Shijin, she is so uncalm, don't you know?"

"Of course I know......" Lu Jing looked at the map calmly and said calmly.

"Since you know, why did you let Jia'er go, didn't you let her mess around?" Xiao Tian was still emotionally unstable and said, "Even if you send her to lead the army, why do you want to leave me in the camp? I'm not around, if she meets Chen Shijin and gets carried away and desperate, and no one can stop her, wouldn't she miss the overall situation?"

Lu Jing was still unhurried, and said calmly: "Don't worry, I must have a good idea of what I promised her...... Don't worry about Sister Su, she won't meet Chen Shijin in this battle......"

"You...... Why is it so clear?" Xiao Tian couldn't help but wonder when he heard this.

Lu Jing looked at the map with both eyes, and said confidently: "Chen Shijin has been stationed in Tongguan for three years, and he must be a talented soldier...... In order to gain a fighter, he would never act rashly, knowing that the main force of our army was just pressing the situation under the guise of delaying time; in this case, with his talent, he would definitely think of 'planning what he would do' and send other generals to meet him, while he himself stayed in the camp to watch the movement of our army's intentions......"

"You really ...... So sure?" Xiao Tian still said uneasily.

"Of course—" Lu Jing said firmly, "Don't look at me these days, I don't seem to have nothing to do, in fact, after the troops are stationed here, I have already calculated a lot of strategies about the battle in Tongguan, including understanding the topography of Tongguan and the details of the enemy's ......."

Xiao Tian listened and continued to ask: "Since Sister Jing knows that the enemy army has seen through our army's tricks, why do you still continue to carry out the 'feint attack plan' and let Jia'er lead the troops as the main general?"

"Let her calm down—" Lu Jing suddenly said an inexplicable sentence.

"Calm down...... Calm down?" Xiao Tian was slightly puzzled.

Lu Jing sighed, and then said: "It's not that I don't know, since Zhu Yuanzhang sent the letter of the 'Wind Chaser Messenger', Sister Su hasn't been stable for a day, Brother Xiao, you are also heartbroken...... This time, the main force will fight, Chen Shijin will not be in front of the pass, Sister Su pounced, just to let her 'wish' come to naught, so that she can recognize the reality, let go of her burden during the war, and don't be taken care of by personal grievances......"

"Jia'er ......" remembered Su Jia's "anxiety" these days, and Xiao Tian was very worried......

"It turns out that you didn't go out with the big army......" At this moment, Murong Ying came from outside the camp, patronized Xiao Tian and Lu Jing and said-Because she was pregnant, Murong Ying did not participate in the war this time.

"Sister Sakura, are you okay?" Knowing Murong Ying's pregnancy, Xiao Tian asked with concern.

"It's good, although I was a little shocked last night, it's fine...... Murong Ying smiled slightly.

"Now that the war is tight outside, Sister Sakura, you should not walk around outside the camp and raise the baby with peace of mind......" Lu Jing also said with concern on the side.

"Thank you, Sister Lu......" Murong Ying replied with a smile, and then said faintly worried, "It's just that I'm far away from the battlefield, and Brother Qin is out alone, so I'm sometimes quite worried......"

Murong Ying's expression was slightly similar to Li Yuru before her death - she was also worried that her husband was fighting outside, and she was pregnant but could only stay in the camp...... Thinking of the past events of Zhao Zichuan and Li Yuru before their deaths, the three of them couldn't help but feel sad and reminiscing......

"By the way, what about the Qin brothers?" Seeing that only Murong Ying came alone, and Qin Yu had no task on this expedition, nor was he taken care of by Murong Ying's side, Xiao Tian couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't he on the expedition?Together with Brother Lu Ling, I was still worried before the expedition...... Murong Ying asked a little sluggishly, "Isn't it the task you arranged, why don't you know it yourself?"

"That's not right! this expedition didn't have his mission, why did Brother Qin ...... him" Xiao Tian suddenly realized that the situation was not right, and couldn't help but ask rhetorically.

Lu Jing smiled slightly on the side, as if everything was under control.

Xiao Tian saw that it was Lu Jing who was inexplicably plotting, and couldn't help but turn his head and ask, "Sister Jing, what the hell is going on, are you hiding something from us?"

"It's this—" Lu Jing said with a smile, picking up a secret letter in her hand...... (To be continued.) )
