Zhu Gaochi had a sound sleep.
He was woken up before midnight and sat up subconsciously.
After calling the soldiers for questioning, they were relieved. It turned out that the enemy did not attack at night, but feinted for a while and then withdrew.
It seems that the continuous fierce attacks in the past three days have not only exhausted the defenders, but also the soldiers of the Confederate Army.
When he thought of this, Zhu Gaochi sighed secretly.
The enemy chose to suspend the offensive, which was not good news for our own army.
Once they calm down, the next attack will only be crazier and more ferocious!
At present, the Yan army is facing many difficulties and problems. Food and grass supplies are only a trivial matter. The most critical hidden danger lies in morale and military morale!
Zhu Gaochi always kept this hidden danger in mind that Chen Heng and Gu Cheng told him.
If you still can't find a way to solve it, you don't have to wait for Qu Neng's army to break through Peiping. The city of Peiping will probably collapse without any attack!
But, what should we do?
Big Fatty thought hard for a while, then suddenly slapped his thigh.
"Hey...how could I forget it!"
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly took out the pamphlet Su Yang wrote for him and read it carefully.
After a long time, a complicated expression flashed across Prince Yan's face.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you are worthy of being an immortal!"
"This is the method, it's a little too risky!"
This booklet, of course, also records the strategies to deal with the current situation of the Yan army and how to re-establish the morale of the army.
But the method Su Yang gave is very risky, and even the slightest carelessness will lead to the loss of everything!
Zhu Gaochi's face looked uncertain for a while, but then he gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
"Come here, please invite the two gentlemen and the two generals to come over and discuss matters!"
"By the way, invite my mother and concubine here too!"
After hearing the prince's order, the bodyguards immediately went to invite people without doubting that he was there.
Soon Dao Yan, Jin Zhong, Chen Heng, and Gu Cheng came together with a little confusion on their faces.
Zhu Gaochi just nodded to them and did not speak in a hurry.
Until Princess Yan walked in in a hurry, everyone stood up and saluted her in a hurry.
"Chi'er, you didn't get a good rest in the middle of the night, why did you suddenly summon everyone to discuss something?"
Xu Miaoyun asked slightly puzzled, she felt a little sorry for her eldest son.
Chi'er was born obese and had been frail and sickly since he was a child, so he was not loved by his father.
After so many years, his condition has not improved. On the contrary, this time Zhu Di went to Daning to ask for help, and all the burden fell on Chi'er.
Xu Miaoyun is really worried that this heavy burden will crush the eldest son in front of her!
Zhu Gaochi motioned Xu Miaoyun to sit down, and then said something shocking!
"Concubine, two gentlemen, two generals, I am preparing to attack the Confederate camp at night!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
"What?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Absolutely not!"
Not surprisingly, his proposal was unanimously opposed by everyone.
Are you kidding me?
Their strength is as high as 20,000 to 300,000, but your strength is only 30,000 to 40,000. They are huddled in the city and can hardly hold it anymore. Do you still want to attack the enemy camp at night?
Are you crazy? This is it!
"Your Majesty, we are outnumbered and outnumbered. This is not a wise move!"
"Yes, Chi'er, it's good if we can hold on to Peking. We must not leave the city rashly. That is the same as committing suicide!"
Everyone tried to persuade him, but Zhu Gaochi shook his head firmly.
"Everyone, as you said, the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. The right way is to hold on to the city."
"But if you all think so, then Qu Neng will naturally think so too. What's more, we have been holding on to the city these days, so the enemy is bound to relax their vigilance. This is a great opportunity for our army to attack the enemy camp at night!"
Zhu Gaochi stood up and spoke decisively.
"In addition, the two generals also said during the day that our army's morale is low and its morale is low. We must find a way to solve this problem as soon as possible, otherwise the soldiers of the three armies may explode and mutiny!"
"And if you want to improve morale and unite the morale of the army, there is only one best way, a hearty victory!"
"So this night attack is inevitable, and it will be at Yin Shi tonight!"
According to what Su Yang said in the booklet, the time when a person relaxes his guard the most, that is, when he is sleeping deeply, is roughly during the time period of Yin Shi (three to five o'clock in the morning).
Based on his fanatical trust in Su Yang, the banished immortal, Zhu Gaochi immediately made up his mind to raid the Southern Army camp tonight to re-gather the morale of the Yan Army!
Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this, and they all looked at Zhu Gaochi in surprise.
Even Xu Miaoyun is no exception. Her son has never understood military matters, how can he speak so eloquently now?
"Chi'er, where did your idea come from?"
Zhu Gaochi took out the pamphlet Su Yang gave him without hiding it.
"This is the strategy for defending the city that Su Yang gave me. He proposed this strategy, and there are a series of plans behind it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
They are all high-ranking officials in Prince Yan's palace, so they naturally understand the identity of Su Yang's banished immortal.
If these plans were really proposed by Su Yang, then they would be much more feasible.
Xu Miaoyun took the booklet and read it carefully. After a while, she sincerely praised: "This kid Su Yang is really a genius!"
Dao Yan couldn't wait to take the pamphlet and sighed after reading it.
"A poor monk is not as good as Su Shengduo!"
When the other three people saw this, they were all a little confused. They passed it around and flipped through it one by one, and then they all had smiles on their faces.
Jin Zhong praised: "With Su Sheng's help, this wave is stable!"
Chen Heng echoed: "Su Sheng is awesome!"
Gu Cheng complimented: "Su Shengshi is a master of the art of war!"
Big Fatty: "..."
"Ahem, that's almost done. Let's get down to business!"
"I am going to personally lead the cavalry out of the city and surprise the Confederate camp!"
"No!" Xu Miaoyun decisively refused.
Everyone also firmly opposed it.
"Absolutely not!"
"How can a son of a rich man put himself in danger if he cannot sit down in court?"
"The Crown Prince is now the backbone of Beiping City, there is no room for failure, as long as he leaves in the end!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this old man can still carry the knife, so there is no need for His Majesty to put himself in danger!"
Hearing what everyone said, Zhu Gaochi shook his head.
"You all read the brochure too."
"Su Yang has already made it very clear."
"If we want to rally the troops and restore their morale, I, Prince Yan, must take charge of this battle. Even two generals are not qualified!"
Zhu Gaochi's face was full of determination, without the slightest hint of timidity.
But Xu Miaoyun never let go, and her attitude was also very determined.
"Mother, concubine, and all of you, my father is fighting to the death outside, how can I, the eldest son, live in an ignoble existence, slacking off and enjoying my life?"
Zhu Gaochi said sincerely: "Besides, this battle is just to harass the enemy. There is not much risk. I believe Su Yang..."
"Shut up!" Xu Miaoyun interrupted him coldly, "Even if all the men in Prince Yan's residence are dead, it won't be your turn to personally go into battle to kill the enemy!"
"Su Yang is indeed right. Someone with weight and qualifications must lead the army to fight. Now in the entire Beiping City, I am the only one!"
Everyone: "???"
Zhu Gaochi: "???"
What?
What do you mean?
Princess Yan put on armor and went into battle to attack the enemy camp at night?
The script written by Su Yang shouldn't be like this!
"Mother concubine..."
"Can you beat me?"
"..."
