Chapter five hundred and forty-one: lead the snake out of the hole

Just when Yuan Xi killed Zhu Wen with one punch, all the inland ships in Jiaozhou Bay, Qingzhou Prefecture were finally completed.

In the tent outside the Pyeongchang City, Yuan Ping looked at Chen Dao who was a little tired in front of him and said with relief: "Uncle Zhi, thank you for your hard work."

"The Marshal is serious, this is what the last general should do," Chen Dao replied quickly.

Yuan Ping nodded with satisfaction and said softly: "Uncle, it is logical that you are responsible for the construction of the sea boat, and you are responsible for the expedition, but Pyeongchang is a fast-fire bone, and I need a general like you to come back to help."

"Marson, the responsibility of a soldier is to obey orders. The marshal lets the last general fight, and the last general fights," Chen Dao immediately replied seriously.

"Okay, you go back and have a rest first. Later, I will convene the generals of each army to discuss matters. There is one of the most important things to you at any time," Yuan Ping said with a smile.

"Marson Xie"

After Chen Dao left, Li Rui, who was in the tent and now has temporarily assumed the position of deputy commander of the Second Legion, frowned and said, "Marson, you really plan to let Ma Jun go to war."

Yuan Ping nodded slightly and said, "This is not only the coach's meaning, but also the king's meaning."

"But although Ma Jun is smart, he seems to be much worse than Shu Zhi's martial arts and military leadership," Li Rui said with some confusion.

Yuan Ping smiled and said, "You said it's right. Uncle is even a talented general, but he is not good at using it well. He is also less slick. This time he went to the battle by sea and attacked the hinterland of Xuzhou. It is crucial to have an unexpected situation in Xuzhou, the Central Plains, and even the world. Therefore, the generals leading the army must be flexible and have some luck. The king has said more than once that Ma Zhong is also a general. In addition, this coach has been training Ma Zhong during this period. He has made great progress, so it is most suitable for him to go to the battle."

Li Rui shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this kid is too slippery."

"It's okay, isn't there a talent in Langya?" Yuan Ping comforted.

"The Marshal is talking about Chen Deng," said Li Rui.

"It's true that Chen Dengwen can govern the world, fight with martial arts, and have literary and martial arts. With his help, Ma Zhong will never make a big mistake," Yuan Ping said confidently.

"But there is Chen Su," Li Rui said with some concern.

"This is also what I am anxious about. If Chen Su cannot be rescued, Chen Deng will never surrender. He will even hate our Dayan and try his best to prevent the navy from landing. If there is no strong city to defend, this cavalry will become a rootless source. Once an accident occurs, it will be dangerous." Yuan Ping said seriously.

"Marson, I will see that in order to ensure that everything is lost, we must be prepared to seize Pyeongchang head-on." Hearing this, Li Rui suggested.

Yuan Ping raised his lips and said, "Didn't you notice that the siege has become more and more difficult in the past few days?"

Li Rui was stunned and nodded, "It seems that yes, the casualties of our army have increased recently, and it seems that the combat effectiveness of Wei and Wu has increased."

"It's not combat effectiveness, but confidence. It's been thirteen days since our army sent troops. Although we have the upper hand, we still haven't captured Pingchang City. The soldiers of Wei and Wu have gradually become calm from the beginning of fear of our Dayan. However, during this period, the city defense of Pingchang City seems to have changed, especially because many people in Pingchang City have actually joined the city guarding sequence, which is even more surprising." Yuan Ping smiled.

Looking at Yuan Ping with a relaxed expression, Li Rui said curiously: "Marson, it seems that he has nothing to say."

"Haha, in fact, the most hope for me now is that they can have huge confidence. I have attacked the city four times in a row and lost no less than three or four thousand people. I should be able to feed them," Yuan Ping said expectantly.

"The Marshal wants to lure the snake out of the hole," Li Rui said in surprise, and his whole body reacted.

.....

On the other hand, in the government office in Pingchang City, Xu Huang and Cheng Pu were wandering around the garden. With the defeat of Da Yan's siege, Da Yan had temporarily stopped the meaningless attack, which made them both feel very good and they could have a good rest.

"The defeat of the Yan army during this period is all due to the governor of Zhou. Thanks to his advocacy of the people, our army would not have defended the city so easily." Xu Huang said admired that after Zhou Yu arrived, he did not make any suggestions for his military affairs. He just proposed to give all the land borrowed by the Pyeongchang city households and give them to the people after the war ended.

For ordinary people, land is fate and heaven. Being able to have a piece of land of one's own is more precious than anything else. Therefore, with the help of the people of Pyeongchang, whether it is the preparation of the city-guarding equipment, the preparation of food, grass, and medicine is more than just a little faster than before.

"General Xu was too rewarded. If the general had not fought bravely and motivated the three armies, he would not have defeated the sharpness of the Great Yan," Cheng Pu said modestly.

"Haha, I don't know when Governor Zhou will come back," Xu Huang suddenly asked with some concern.

After the war in Pyeongchang stabilized, Zhou Yu immediately suggested to Xu Huang to rush to Langya in person. He was very worried about his side and must go over and take a look in person.

"It should be soon," Cheng Pu replied

Xu Huang nodded and said a little serious: "General Cheng, although we have defeated Da Yan's many attacks, the military strategy is full of things, and long-term defense will lead to failure. Moreover, the King of Central Plains does not know what the situation is. Will the other three countries be as conscious as Wu and give their whole country's help"

Cheng Pu's eyes narrowed and he said, "General, do you have any ideas?"

"I do have some ideas. Now the Dayan edge is frustrated, and our army is indeed full of morale. I have sent people to investigate secretly. At present, the second legion's food and grass are all placed in Anqiu. It is better to remove the firewood from the cauldron than to sit and wait for death." Xu Huang said with a ruthless look.

Cheng Pu frowned and said, "The general should know Yuan Ping's ability. How could he not know the importance of food and grass to the army?"

"I'll consider this, but he can't defend it for the first time, but he can't defend it for the second time," Xu Huang sneered.

"The second time" Cheng Pu was surprised.

"I, Cao's army, suffered this second great loss back then," Xu Huang said a little embarrassedly.

Cheng Pu was stunned and then curiously said, "What the General said was the King of Wei who was conquering Zhang Xiu back then."

"It's true that the king was prepared for the first night attack. Zhang Xiu fled in a defeat, but he didn't expect that he would have a second night attack, which almost killed the king," Xu Huang said with a wry smile.

After thinking carefully, Cheng Pu nodded and said, "This plan can be tried. While our army is in high morale, it will burn his food and grass. Even if it cannot win a big victory, it will force Yuan Ping to withdraw his troops and break the overall situation at one point."

"No, so I will go in person this time," Xu Huang said loudly.

"What?" Cheng Pu was shocked and hurriedly said: "General Xu, you are the commander of the coalition forces of the two countries, how can you move lightly?"

"General Cheng Pu, this plan was come up with this general. I have studied it carefully. No one knows better than me. If you send someone else, you will probably not be able to control it." Xu Huang shook his head and said.

"This!" Cheng Pu hesitated and said, "General Xu, why don't you wait for Gongjin to come back?"
