Chapter 53 The Hooked Fish
Hearing Liu Bowen’s comments, Liu Bian was even more proud.
Now that he has the Summoning System in hand, no matter how powerful generals are, they will gather in his hands. What’s wrong with sweeping the whole world?
Renqiu City, the county government.
Since Liu Bian led the army, this has naturally become the place where he lives.
Since they defeated Zhang Yan’s Montenegrin Army two days ago, they have become a lot more honest. Perhaps they realized the gap with the officers and soldiers, so they did not continue to try to attack. It looks like it’s exhausted.
Seeing Zhang Yan defending so tightly, Liu Bian was also a bit of a headache. In a decisive battle with the Montenegrin Army in the wilderness, it would be very easy to win, but if it was an offensive and defensive battle, it was really not what Liu Bian wanted to see.
After three days in a row, Zhang Yan was able to calm down and had no desire to attack.
But this made Liu Bian a little uncomfortable. After all, it would be unfavorable for them to consume it, and Fan Yangcheng’s situation would become more and more unfavorable.
In the city, in the council hall.
Liu Bian frowned slightly: “Zhang Yan doesn’t move at all, what is the best way for everyone to lead him out?”
Both Yuwen Chengdu and Liao Hua shook their heads and set their sights directly on Liu Bowen.
Seeing the eyes of everyone praying, Liu Bowen paused and said, “Judging from the current situation, Zhang Yan has defeated two generals and will not have a head-to-head confrontation with us at all. He himself is very clear about this. Take a defensive stance.”
“So we can’t attack rashly. The safest way at the moment is that General Xue can bring back reinforcements. At that time, no matter whether we attack or lure, we can defeat Zhang Yan in one fell swoop.”
Liu Bian nodded slowly: “As of now, we can only wait for the news of General Xue to arrive at Kong Rong and bring back reinforcements.”
Yuwen Chengdu and Liao Hua also nodded.
Perhaps it was to cooperate with Liu Bian’s words. Liu Bian was about to let everyone go away when he heard an urgent report from outside, and everyone was happy.
Liu Bowen said with a smile: “Your Majesty, you just finished talking here, and this good news will come.”
Liu Bian laughed: “Hurry up and call!!”
As soon as these words fell, the soldier ran in from the outside panting: “Your Majesty, this is a letter from General Xue to Your Majesty.”
Liu Bian took the letter from the soldier and waved his hand directly, and the soldier quietly retreated.
After opening the envelope, Liu Bian laughed loudly: “General Xue has sent a letter, and now he is behind the Montenegrin army camp. The purpose of the letter is to confirm our plan.”
Liu Bowen said: “Your Majesty, since this is the case, then we really have to fight the Montenegrin Army.”
Liu Bian nodded slowly, with a sharp look in his eyes.
“But Your Majesty, Zhang Yan doesn’t dare to leave the camp now, are we going to attack it?” Yuwen Cheng said.
Liu Bian shook his head. Now that the reinforcements have arrived, the final plan should be launched.
“Pass my order, the whole army will go out of the city and help Fan Yang!!”
As soon as Liu Bian said this, Yuwen Chengdu and Liao Hua were directly confused. Didn’t they just say that they would annihilate Zhang Yan in one fell swoop? Why did he just blink, His Majesty actually changed his mind.
Only Liu Bowen pursed his lips and said with a smile: “Your Majesty, this is still a plan to defeat the enemy. I think that Zhang Yan has been so frightened that he doesn’t dare to leave the camp, and why does he want to delay time? Isn’t it just to want Lu Bu? The army of fighters rushes in front, and he can pick up ready-made ones in the back.”
“So, as soon as we retreat and leave Renqiu, what will they do?”
Yuwen Chengdu and Liao Hua’s eyes lit up: “It is natural to occupy Renqiu City.”
Liu Bowen nodded: “If we hide soldiers in ambush in the city and attack General Xue from both sides, we will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.”
“Your Majesty is incomparably wise and will definitely be able to win the battle and wipe out the Montenegrin Army in one fell swoop.” Yuwen Chengdu and others said.
Liu Bian smiled and said, “Don’t say nice things here. Now this news must not be leaked, let alone spread. Except for the 2,000 cavalry, everyone quickly evacuated Renqiu for me. .”
Liu Bian’s last sentence was even more severe and solemn.
Everyone present was aware of the urgency of the matter, so they all nodded and hurried away.
The news of the 30,000 army leaving the city was naturally hidden from Zhang Yan’s eyes and ears. At first, Zhang Yan was a little unconvinced, for fear that this was Liu Bian’s trick to lure the enemy. When the scouts came back again and again, they reported that the army was more than six months away from Renqiu. Ten miles away, Zhang Yan was overjoyed.
In the camp, Zhang Yan was in a very good mood. He said with a smile: “Soldiers, Liu Bian has fled in a hurry and has gone to Fanyang City to support, so we also need to take Renqiu first, and then press Fanyang City.”
“The order goes on, and all the soldiers will cook on the spot immediately. After they have eaten and drank enough, the army will set off together.”
Seeing Zhang Yan so happy, the generals below were also beaming with joy, and it was great to be able to win without fighting.
For a while, the military tent was full of flattering voices. *
