When Chu Zhao heard that Murong Xiao was injured, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
The heavy snow has stopped now. If the Beidi people rest for the night and attack the city again tomorrow morning, the Jingnan Army will most likely not be able to defend the city due to heavy casualties and the wounded general.
Not long after Huaizhou City was recaptured by Murong Xiao, if it fell again, the people who had finally escaped would face a second trampling by the enemy, with disastrous consequences.
The day after tomorrow was New Year's Eve, and she couldn't let the people spend the New Year amidst the burning, killing, and looting of the enemy.
In this case, not only the people of Huaizhou will be disappointed with the imperial court, but the people of the entire Dayan will also be suspicious of the imperial court.
What is the use of a court that cannot protect its people from massacre?
"Blow the drum and send word to the generals of each battalion to come to my tent to discuss matters." Chu Zhao immediately ordered a few girls to put away the food and utensils on the table, and then asked Aao to bring the map and spread it out.
Just after cleaning up, the generals from each camp heard the sound of drums and came outside the tent to ask the king why he raised the tent.
Chu Zhao ordered everyone to go inside, inform Huaizhou's military situation in detail, and make a bold decision.
"The Beidi people are now stationed in the wilderness north of Huaizhou City. They have just fought a battle, are exhausted, and are sure of victory. They must relax their vigilance at night, which is the best time for a surprise attack."
The generals were shocked when they heard this. Although Huaizhou was in danger and was imminent, marching in a hurry on a snowy night without being familiar with the terrain was also very dangerous.
Moreover, the Beidi people have united several surrounding tribes. No matter how sleepy and relaxed they are, they still number [-], and their fighting power cannot be underestimated.
Ten thousand versus one hundred thousand, the chance of winning is almost non-existent.
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, with most of them opposed and only a few in favor.
"If your Majesty is really worried, we can set off early tomorrow. As long as we can reach Huaizhou before the Beidi people attack the city, we can still help the Jingnan Army."
"Can it be the same?" Chu Zhao said, "We attacked overnight to take the initiative and catch them off guard. We will rush to reinforce them tomorrow. Before we arrive, the Jingnan Army will still suffer casualties. If something happens to us on the way, If we go too late, the entire Huaizhou City will fall again, and we will be even more passive by then."
All the generals fell silent.
Everyone knew what she said made sense, but this tactic was too difficult and had many unpredictable risks. It could be said that she was betting on the lives of 1 people.
"The battlefield is inherently a big gamble. You either win or lose. Sometimes the gamble is about courage." Chu Zhao pointed at the map and said, "I have studied the terrain in this area in detail, and the scouts have also explored the route between them. , and I have also..."
She wanted to say that she had fought dozens of large and small battles here in her previous life, and was quite familiar with this area. However, she felt that the words were inappropriate, so she changed her words: "We divided our troops into three groups to bypass Huaizhou City and outflank it. , arriving just before the fourth watch, when people are most sleepy in the day, we used the heavy snow to cover up the sound of horse hooves, quietly approached and attacked with fire, and we were sure to succeed with one blow."
"This……"
When the generals saw that she was speaking eloquently and confidently, they could no longer voice any objections. They looked at each other, still hesitant.
They came to the northwest not only to reinforce the Jingnan Army, but more importantly, to complete the tasks entrusted to them by Feng Gonggong and not to allow the regent to return to Beijing safely.
It is precisely because of this mission that they have never dared to get too close to the regent, and they were unwilling to fully obey her orders.
But now, the regent insists on attacking the enemy camp at night. If they refuse to obey the order, the secret will inevitably be revealed and arouse the regent's suspicion.
However, after listening to the regent's order, the 1 men and horses were likely to be lost in the hands of the Beidi people, and the task would not be completed by then.
In this case, it is really a dilemma whether to go or not.
Chu Zhao was so exquisite that he naturally understood what these people were thinking. He smiled slightly and said cryptically: "I know that all of you are the people that Eunuch Feng values the most. He trusts you, so he will send you to go out with me, regardless of whether you obey orders or not." For everyone, it is the mission and responsibility of a soldier to protect the homeland and save the people from fire and water."
She paused, and her sharp eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one: "So everyone, in the face of the unshirkable responsibility, don't you want to fight a beautiful and vigorous fight, enough for you to boast for decades, and even be famous in history? Fight?"
The tent fell into silence for a moment, with only the sound of wind passing through the tent.
None of the generals spoke, and many of them were already a little moved.
Chu Zhao added: "The Chinese New Year is coming the day after tomorrow. It is supposed to be a day for families to reunite, but you have to go to the frontier and cannot be reunited with your wives, children, and children. All this happened because of the Beidi people. They invaded our rivers and mountains and destroyed my homeland. Kill my people, if we still look forward and backward, in the next step, they will take advantage of the victory and approach the capital.
By then, your wives, children, and children will be slaughtered, displaced, and terrified all day long just like the people on the border.
At that time, if your relatives ask you why you came to the border but failed to stop the enemy's iron hoof, will you regret not joining me in a night attack on the enemy tonight and killing all those sons of bitches? ? "
She stopped and scanned everyone again: "There is a word called "It's too late to regret." I don't want this word to come out of your mouth one day, and I believe you don't want it either."
"I don't want to." A'ao, who had been standing beside him, took a step forward and said, "Although I am an orphan and don't know where my parents and relatives are, I am willing to go with the king and risk my life without doing anything that I will regret. .”
"I'm going too." Iron Hammer also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, those who don't want to go, just let them stay here and be a coward. We will go with you."
"There's me, I'm going too." General Xiao raised his hands and said, "Although I don't know kung fu, I'm still more enlightened than some cowards who know kung fu."
The generals: "..."
You can go if you want, why are you scolding?
Besides, they were just hesitant, but they didn’t say no.
"Since the king is confident, we are willing to go with the king to drive away the Beidi people and celebrate the New Year well."
"Yes, drive away the Beidi people so that the people, our wives, children, and children can have a good New Year."
"Okay!" Chu Zhao clasped his fists and said solemnly, "On behalf of the people of Huaizhou, on behalf of the Jingnan Army, and on behalf of Dayan Jiangshan, I would like to thank you all."
"Your Majesty, you can't do it, you can't do it." Everyone dared to accept her gift, so they all knelt down on one knee to return the gift.
Chu Zhao stepped forward with a smile and helped everyone up one by one with his own hands: "You are all my passionate sons of Dayan. You are willing to go with me. I have won half of this battle. I hope that every battle in the future will be fought." , we can all work together and share the same hatred against the enemy. As for other things, we can wait until the Beidi people are beaten away."
"Yes!" All the generals responded in unison, "I will wait until the king orders me!"
The heavy snow has stopped now. If the Beidi people rest for the night and attack the city again tomorrow morning, the Jingnan Army will most likely not be able to defend the city due to heavy casualties and the wounded general.
