The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 160
Li Chuang sat there on his knees, without looking at him, his face kept turning gloomy.He really felt a little embarrassed, because he felt the same as Li Yan and others, thinking that the best way for his family now is to give up capturing Yangping, but after listening to the middle-aged Confucian scholar's explanation, although he was a little confused , but it makes sense.

After struggling for a while, Li Chuang's expression gradually became firm. He had already made a decision about the whereabouts of Liang Jun.

"Sir, you are indeed a gentleman. After some explanations, I immediately felt enlightened. But we have been in the army for a long time, and we have always pursued the side of fighting to support the war. If we have not broken through Yangping for a long time, our morale is high. , our food supplies will also be in short supply.”

"The best way is to retreat directly, but we also need to consider what Mr. said. I think so. Let's stay here for another [-] days. If Yangping is captured within [-] days, we will continue to go north. If it is ten If we can't break through Yangping within five days, then we will first attack other cities to replenish our own strength, and then go north when our strength is strong, sir, what do you think?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar glanced at Li Chuang, cupped his hands and said, "For now, it's a good idea. The general is wise, and I will obey." After finishing speaking, he bowed to Li Chuang.

Li Chuang's answer did not surprise the middle-aged Confucian scholars.Before Li Chuang spoke, he had already guessed this kind of answer, but the time was a little different. He guessed it was [-] days, but Li Chuang said it was [-] days.

However, he didn't say anything more. Although the result was unsatisfactory, there were still fifteen more days. Based on his understanding of Li Chuang, if he said anything else.It is estimated that it will only have some counterproductive effects. Instead of doing this, it is better to compliment him and take the order.

"Okay, now that this matter is settled, let's step back first. I'm a little tired. As for the matter of crossing the river and attacking the city, let's find another time to discuss it." Li Chuang took a sip of tea from one side of his teacup, moistened Liao moistened his throat and said.

This meeting will not be interesting if it continues.Now most of his generals are opposed to crossing the river to attack the city, and advocate accumulating strength in Yanzhou first.

There is also a small part of them who remain neutral, and only middle-aged Confucian scholars support the northward support.After the discussion continues, these ministries will not come up with any good suggestions.

To be able to capture Yangping within fifteen days can only depend on whether the middle-aged Confucian scholars can come up with any good strategies.

Hearing Li Chuang's eviction order, all the generals also began to slowly exit the hall.However, when the middle-aged Confucian scholar was about to leave, he smiled lightly at Li Yan.It made Li Yan's eyes turn red, and he wanted to spit fire.But it didn't happen on the spot in front of Li Chuang.

Seeing this, the middle-aged Confucian scholar shook his head slightly in disdain, and then turned and left the hall.

After walking out of the main hall, the middle-aged Confucian scholar showed disdain when he heard the other military officers behind him intentionally increased their voices, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai. .

My mind is like a tease all day long, I don't know what I'm thinking.He doesn't care at all about some dirty words from such people.

When you're truly a contemptuous person, no matter what is done in front of you, you won't be interested, let alone angry.

Among this group of military officers, the only one who can really put the middle-aged Confucian scholars in their eyes is the young general named Li Yan. This person is very important.

Not because of anything else, but because this person has his own insights and unique thinking, and he has his own analysis of the whole thing.Although it was completely contrary to his own opinion, he could barely be regarded as his apprentice opponent.

That's why when he just came out of the hall, the middle-aged Confucian scholar deliberately looked at him with disdain, just to make him angry.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar came out of the main hall, walked along the street, turned a corner from time to time, and finally stopped in an alley.Because of the high walls on both sides of the alley, the sunshine is not very good, but it has a dark and damp feeling, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar did not stop, walked straight into the alley, and stopped at the door of a house at the end of the alley.Looking at the wooden door at the entrance, the middle-aged Confucian scholar took two steps forward, clasped the iron ring on the door with his fingers and tapped lightly.

As the knock on the door was remembered, footsteps soon came from inside the door, and as the footsteps got closer, they stopped.Then there was no sound at all.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar smiled. He knew that the other party must be looking at him through the crack of the door. Thinking of this, he moved his body so that the people inside could see him through the crack of the door more conveniently.

"Boom".

After the middle-aged Confucian scholar moved his body between the cracks in the door, maybe the people inside saw his face, and the door was quickly opened from the inside.

A small head poked out from the half-open door, smiled at the middle-aged Confucian scholar, and then shrank back.

After the middle-aged Confucian scholar saw the little head shrank back, he heard a shout from inside: "Mr. is back."

Seeing this, the middle-aged Confucian scholar laughed and scolded: "Little devil, what are you calling? It's not like I haven't seen me come back."

With that said, he pushed open the half-open door and walked in.

The little boy who was called a "little ghost" by the middle-aged Confucian scholar touched his head in embarrassment when he heard the middle-aged Confucian scholar's words, and smiled shyly at the middle-aged Confucian scholar.

Seeing him like this, the middle-aged Confucian scholar knew that this child was shy and thin-skinned.She didn't continue to make fun of him, but stretched out her big hand and touched the back of his head kindly.

Two figures, one big and one small, walked out of the gate slowly, and walked along the path to the room in the courtyard.

Although this house looks at the gate from the outside, it seems that the house will not be very big, but in fact, as long as you walk through the gate, you will find that there is actually a hidden hole in this house.

Although the house cannot be compared with the government office, it is not the kind of place where common people live. There are some flowers, fruits and trees on both sides of the courtyard path. Although it has turned into dead branches and leaves in winter, it is still It has a different flavor.

Walking out of the trail, the middle-aged Confucian scholar stepped onto a small bridge.On both sides of the bridge is an I-shaped river pond. Looking from the bridge, the pond is full of dead branches and leaves, but it feels devastated.
