Rebirth of the Merry Warrior

Chapter 59 Had to fight

Shen Chengqian originally thought that a warlike and brave country like Yunrong should take the initiative to go out to meet the enemy.Unexpectedly, Yun Rong didn't even reveal his face when he got the news that Bei Chen had come to help him.Instead, the gates of the two cities were closed tightly, and they became a turtle.

At night, Yan Moran and Mo Yu rushed back from Yancheng.The four of them gathered in the mansion again to discuss countermeasures.

Long Chenyu said: "In the past, your country was afraid that Yunrong would invade the country, so it asked us for help. But now, Yunrong stays behind closed doors, and has no intention of committing any crimes again."

Yan Moran said: "At this time, we have the support of your country, and we have the upper hand in terms of military strength. Naturally, Yun Rong will not be able to take the initiative to attack. But if your country's army returns, Yun Rong will definitely attack again. At that time, Not only is Bai Ze likely to be destroyed by Yun Rong, that Yun Rong child has always been greedy. If Bai Ze is destroyed and I open the gate and go straight to Beichen, it will be a big disaster. Now, your country and Bai Ze are in a state of indifference, and they should be unanimous. , attack the enemy together.”

Shen Chengqian listened for a long time, only understood that now Long Chenyu was watching and Yan Moran was attacking.He knew that the two of them had their own reasons, but he was still in a dilemma as to what to do now.

If he waited and watched, Yun Rong might not open the city gate for a while, and Beichen's army would not be stationed in Bai Ze for many years, and sooner or later he would leave for the country.He was afraid that Yun Rong would attack Bai Ze after Bei Chen's army had withdrawn. At that time, Bai Ze would be unable to defend against the enemy, and Bei Chen would have no time to help, so Yun Rong Bai would take advantage of it.

If it is an attack, but until now, except for taking the property of the people in the city by force, Yun Rong has no apparent tendency to attack Bai Ze.If you take the initiative to attack, you will actually provoke the flames of war and make the situation even more chaotic.What's more, once the battle begins, it is unknown how many soldiers will die on the battlefield, and how many people will be homeless.Tens of thousands of people will suffer from it, so don't act recklessly.

Shen Chengqian wandered between the two parties, in a dilemma.Although he was considered a counselor, he didn't know what to do for a while.The main watch, I am afraid it is the benevolence of a woman, and the main attack, I am afraid it is the courage of a reckless man.

He just felt a little strange, in the past, Long Chenyu had always taken the initiative on the battlefield, why is he being cautious now and taking every step of the way?And that Yan Moran seemed to be a calm person, but he was very aggressive, and his methods were clean and decisive.

It was said that it was a discussion between four people, but in fact it was just a discussion between Long Chenyu and Yan Moran, while Shen Chengqian and Mo Yu were just listening in.In the end, maybe it was not good to disobey Long Chenyu, who was the leader of the reinforcement army, Yan Moran backed down a little and said: "Since the general wants to wait and see for a few more days, let's see how Yun Rong will act before making a decision." Not too late."

Long Chenyu nodded in agreement, and several of them went back to their rooms to rest.

In other countries, in order to avoid suspicion, Shen Chengqian and Long Chenyu didn't live together unless necessary.At this moment, Prime Minister Shen and Long Chenyu were discussing the pros and cons carefully, but the middle school was under curfew, and it was not easy for him to go to Long Chenyu's bedroom to find him, so he had to give up.

Long Chenyu wanted to wait and see for a few more days, he had his own reasons.Know yourself and your enemy on the battlefield, and win every battle.There is nothing wrong with observing the enemy's movements before making a decision.

Unexpectedly, in the early morning of the next day, an urgent instruction that was passed into Yan Moran's mansion shocked all four people in the mansion.

In the middle of the night, Bai Zeyan City was set on fire.

When Shen Chengqian heard the news, she was still washing in the room, after hearing this training, she quickly put on her clothes and went to look for Long Chenyu.Before entering the door, he saw Yan Moran and Mo Yu already in Long Chenyu's room from a distance.Shen Chengqian hurriedly entered the door, only to hear Yan Moran say: "This is what the soldiers guarding the border of our country rushed to pass on last night. Yesterday at Chou, a group of Yunrong soldiers came across the river and killed the soldiers outside the city. They did not enter the city, but went outside the city Rockets were fired and the food, grass and houses in the city were ignited. Fortunately, the soldiers patrolled tightly, and the fire was brought under control before it spread too far. But yesterday and night alone, my Bai Ze soldiers lost dozens of people. Never caught Yunrong's team of arsonists."

Hearing this, Shen Chengqian just frowned.

If before, Yunrong invaded Baize's border with the intention of attacking Baize, but now, Yunrong's move is a provocation to both Baize and Beichen.

Seeing Long Chenyu's silence, Yan Moran's expression became a little excited, and he said sharply: "The matter has come to this, the general has not seen through Yun Rongxiao's ambition? Is it possible that the matter has been observed until now? What if? If you don't move, the traitor Yunrong will attack all the way to my imperial capital!"

Shen Chengqian agreed with Yan Moran in his heart.In the battle situation, the guards of the border town are the most important.If the border town is broken, it will open a gap in the outermost periphery that can be driven straight in.At that time, the enemy's offensive momentum will be like a prairie fire, and it will be impossible to stop it.When Xuanyi attacked Yeling before, that's why Beichen rushed to rescue him.On the surface, it seems that it is only the survival of a city, but in reality, if the border city is destroyed, three out of ten of this battle will have been lost.

Shen Chengqian only felt that the current situation was imminent, but unexpectedly Long Chenyu was still silent.In the end, Yan Moran became impatient, and said sadly: "I know that your army is a reinforcement. It is extremely rare for you to be willing to go east and south to help me with Bai Ze. Now the two sides are about to fight to the death on the battlefield. It is inevitable that the soldiers will be lost. Yan is ignorant to persuade the general to send troops to attack. If the general is afraid of something, Yan will take the army to attack first, and the general will stay in the imperial capital and continue to wait and see, how about it?"

Although Shen Chengqian wanted to tell Yan Moran that Long Chenyu was not such a cowardly and petty person, but he had nothing to say.Now that Yunrong is coming to fight, Beichen and Bai Ze should be on the same page.

What is Long Chenyu hesitating about?

After a while, Long Chenyu finally stood up, and said to Yan Moran: "General Yan, don't worry too much. Since Long has been ordered by the emperor to help Bai Ze, he is willing to work together with your country to foreign affairs. Now that it is that Yun Rongguo took the offense first, and a fierce battle may be unavoidable. Long, just because he has no countermeasures to attack the enemy, is not unwilling to help, and I ask General Yan not to be overwhelmed."

Seeing that Long Chenyu agreed to send troops, Yan Moran breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his fists and saluted, "This time your country saved Bai Ze from the national calamity, it's really a great kindness. If Bai Ze survives this time by chance, he will be the prime minister in the future Thanks."

Long Chenyu waved his hand and said: "That's something for later, don't need to talk about it now. Since the enemy is coming, please general to integrate the army. After noon, you and I will lead the army and garrison Yancheng."

Yan Moran agreed, thanked him a few more words, and withdrew again.

After Yan Moran left, Long Chenyu said to Mo Yu: "Mo Yu, go to the army to gather the soldiers first, and send out the dry rations that will be used on the march today. Gather the army at the east gate, and wait a while." The military division and I will go."

Mo Yu said yes and withdrew.

Immediately, there were only Long Chenyu and Shen Chengqian in the room.

Shen Chengqian just wanted to ask a question, but Long Chenyu lightly pressed his hand on his lips, signaling him to keep silent.Although Shen Chengqian was puzzled, he still kept his mouth shut obediently.

Seeing that he was quiet, Long Chenyu took his hand and walked to the desk, took out a brush, dipped it in thick ink, and wrote on the paper: "The two treasures you got in the past, are you bringing with you today? "

Shen Chengqian was puzzled for a moment, but later figured it out, the two treasures should be the divine jade that Bai Yu gave him, and the phantom butterfly eggs that Wu Lingwang gave him.

So, he nodded to Long Chenyu.

Afterwards, he whispered beside Long Chenyu's ear: "General, what's wrong?"

Long Chenyu first burned the piece of paper on which he wrote on the candle flame, and then softly replied: "No, it's nothing."

After a while, a soldier from Bai Ze came in to inform about the matter, Shen Chengqian had no chance to talk about the secret with Long Chenyu, so he stayed aside for a while, then went back to his room.

After noon, Bai Ze's 3 horses and Beichen's 2 horses marched eastward together and moved into Yancheng.

When he first entered the city gate, Shen Chengqian only felt miserable.He could imagine what a beautiful place Yancheng used to be, but now, it is just ruins with broken arms, scorched earth everywhere, and green smoke in the sky.Some people who hadn't evacuated were crying bitterly at the corner of the city wall because they were homeless. The scene was very pitiful.

Mo Yu had been here before, and the last time he came, it looked like a city, but after a while, it became more and more dilapidated, as if it had been dug out of scorched earth.

Seeing Yan Moran's face full of heartache, he felt more and more hateful about Yun Rong.If you want to fight, you can just open the city gates and attack, but you actually hurt innocent people at night.No wonder he used to be a bandit who robbed and plundered at sea, but now it seems that he is indeed a young man.

After that, the army stationed and set up tents, and they were busy until evening.After dinner, the four of them gathered in the main tent again, with serious expressions on their faces. Among them, Yan Moran was more sad, and Mo Yu was more angry.The four stood there facing each other, but they were speechless for a moment.

The two cities of Yunrong are not easy to fight.

At this moment, although Bai Ze and Bei Chen are superior in numbers, there is a river between the two countries, and crossing the river for an army is a big project, not to mention the need for a large boat, and it will take a lot of time.If Yunrong went out of the city and shot arrows on the shore, Beichen's form would be passive.

Shen Chengqian thought for a long time, then suddenly asked: "Are the people living in the two cities, or are there troops stationed there?"

Yan Moran replied: "There were scouts who went to investigate before. Although they didn't enter the city, they could vaguely hear the voice of orders in the city. At this moment, the people in the two cities should have been dismissed and the army is stationed."

Shen Chengqian asked again: "In your country, what is the longest range that a bow, arrow and crossbow machine can reach?"

Yan Moran thought for a moment, and replied: "Our people are clever and clever. Once a wise man developed a bow and arrow, which can shoot a distance of about two hundred feet."

"Two hundred feet..." Shen Chengqian murmured. "What is the approximate size of a bow and arrow that can shoot two hundred feet?"

"It's the same size as an ordinary bow and arrow." Yan Moran said. "It's just that there is an extra pull on the bow, and the bow string is made of extremely strong and rare materials, so it can be shot so far."

"Shen has a way, maybe he can get the upper hand and break through the two cities." Shen Cheng said shallowly. "It's just that I don't know if this method will work, and it may be a waste of time and money during the attempt."
