In the blink of an eye.
Then another five days passed.
Outside Xinxi City, the smell of siege warfare was already fading away. Walking alone outside Xinxi City, there was not even a trace of war, as if the previous war was just an illusion.
In the school grounds, Liu Chan was holding a scimitar in his hand. At this time, his teacher was not Guan Yinping, but Princess Zhu Rong, who was holding a scimitar in his hand.
Princess Zhu Rong is dressed in tight-fitting clothes and looks elegant. Her face is delicate and handsome, her face is like petals, and her eyes are like stars. Holding a scimitar in her hand, the blade shone with cold light, and her gaze fell on her body, and the aura of iron and blood rushed towards her face.
"Your Highness, this is a sword technique that only the barbarian royal family can learn."
Princess Zhu Rong's scimitar was dancing with murderous intent, but she was also dancing like an elf in the mountains.
"Princess is good at using flying knives, why don't you teach me how to use flying knives?"
As for the scimitar, he learned Guan Yinping's spear skills. To be honest, it was a bit redundant.
It's better to learn some hidden weapon skills, such as Princess Zhu Rong's flying knife. Liu Chan has seen her power in person.
Taking someone's life a dozen steps away is simple and easy.
Compared with bows and crossbows, the flying knife technique is obviously much more secretive.
"It turns out that what Your Highness wants to learn is the art of flying knives!"
Princess Zhu Rong wiped the sweat off her face and took out a throwing knife from her waist.
The blade is sharp and the blade is as thin as paper and in the shape of a willow leaf.
"What a beautiful flying knife, it's a lancet!"
Princess Zhu Rong nodded and said: "It is indeed a lancet. The flying knife method is not difficult to say, but it is definitely not easy to say it is simple."
"Can't it be done quickly?"
Princess Zhu Rong shook her head and said: "Anyone who practices throwing knives and concealed weapons, as long as they can endure hardships, study hard, and practice hard, they will be able to see initial results in one year and achieve success in about two years. However, when practicing, do not "fish for three days" , "Two days to post on the Internet", just practice with a few minutes of enthusiasm and a few days of impulse. It is impossible to master the unique skill of throwing a knife. "
It seems that it is really not easy to learn a technology!
"Then how long did it take for the princess to develop such skills?"
Princess Zhu Rong smiled softly and said: "I have been learning this since I was a child. In this way, it has been ten years!"
ten years?
No wonder he has this unique skill.
If you focus on one thing for ten years, as long as you persist, you will naturally gain something and achieve something.
"Your Highness, if you want to learn, you must first learn how to hold the sword."
"Gently hold the tip or handle of the knife with your index finger and thumb slightly bent toward each other, with the blade facing forward. The other three fingers are curled into the palm of your hand or stretched naturally, and you quickly bend your wrist when throwing it forward."
Princess Zhu Rong had no intention of hiding her own abilities, so she naturally tried her best to teach Liu Chan.
"Put the knuckles of the middle and index fingers together to hold the knife near the tip and throw it forward. Quickly bend your wrist, flex your fingers and shake your arm. At the same time, loosen the clamp with the middle and index fingers, so that the knife flies out and runs towards the target in time. "
After introducing the two hand movements for holding the knife, Princess Zhu Rong immediately started to demonstrate.
Only a whooshing sound was heard, and the flying knife shot out from Princess Zhu Rong's hand and settled directly on the weapon rack.
The weapon rack was originally made of hardwood, but the flying knife was still embedded straight in, which shows how powerful it is.
If this flying knife hits a person, how can he survive?
"Your Highness, don't you try?"
Liu Chan was eager to give it a try, and immediately followed Princess Zhu Rong's grip and exerted force on his wrist. He only heard a whooshing sound, and the lancet disappeared from everyone's sight, and no one knew where the flying knife went.
"Ouch! Who's the one who got a thousand cuts!"
Outside the school grounds, Fei Yi walked in with an angry look on his face. There was a lancet stuck in the top of his hair, which looked a little funny.
"Ahem."
Liu Chan coughed to hide his embarrassment.
Princess Zhu Rong covered her mouth and smiled secretly, but she did not tease Liu Chan.
"I shot that flying knife just now."
Your Highness?
Fei Yi was stunned for a moment, and the anger on his face suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"It turns out His Highness is practicing martial arts, that's what I'm telling you! Why is His Highness so accurate? He knew I had something important to report, so he used a flying knife to convey orders."
Throwing Knife Order
Your head, Fei Yi, is spinning very fast.
"Did the news from outside come in?"
The envoys and scouts sent by Liu Chan a few days ago have basically returned.
"yes."
Liu Chan patted the dust on his body, looked at Princess Zhu Rong with an apologetic look on his face, and said, "I have business to do, the art of flying knives. I will come back to you for advice another day."
Princess Zhu Rong nodded slightly.
"Since you have serious business, your Highness can just go on your own."
We are all old couples, Liu Chan said and walked towards the government office lobby.
When they arrived at the lobby, Fei Yi also handed Liu Chan a summary of the news.
"This is the news collected in the past few days."
Liu Chan opened the summary list and after reading it, his expression became thoughtful.
"After Zhuoyang and Nandun were occupied by our Han army, the Wei army actually did not attack the city."
Fei Yi said on the side: "Your Highness, this Zhuoyang is the place where the soldiers of Runan Prefecture gather. The Wei State may have known about the communication between the Cheng family of Runan and us in Nandun, but General Zhao actually broke through the city so smoothly. , as if Nanton has been handed over to us, there must be something fishy about this matter!"
Liu Chan naturally knew there was something fishy.
He turned around and looked at the map behind him, murmuring: "Shenyang, Shangcai, Xincai. So that's it, that's it!"
I see?
Fei Yi followed Liu Chan's gaze and looked at the location of the three cities, with some confusion on his face.
"What does your Highness mean by this?"
Liu Chan had no expression on his face and said softly: "Although we occupy Pingyu, Nandun, and Zhuoyang, these three cities are all in the hinterland of Runan and are divided by the three cities of Shenyang, Shangcai, and Xincai. When he came, he couldn't even transport grain and grass, and even though he got sons, the sons he got couldn't connect them to form a big dragon."
If it cannot survive, it is a dead dragon.
Fei Yi quickly understood the meaning of Liu Chan's words.
"Then do we have a way to break the situation?"
Liu Chan nodded and said: "By capturing one of the three cities of Xincai, Shangcai and Shenyang, we can break the situation."
Capture one of the three cities?
"Is there any chance of winning?"
"I'm afraid it won't be possible in a short period of time."
If it turns into a critical battle, not to mention the losses, if the time is delayed for too long, there will be problems with food and fodder.
He did knock a bamboo pole from Jiangdong and Xuzhou.
However, the amount obtained was not large after all. It could supply hundreds of thousands, or even more than 200,000 mouths to the soldiers, civilians, horses, and livestock. These grains would not be able to sustain them for long.
Liu Chan made some calculations in his mind.
The grain and grass in the army, plus some shipped from Jingzhou, can last for at least a month.
But can one of the three cities really be captured within a month?
If the only enemies he faced were Cao Hong and Cao Xiu, he would have this confidence.
But now the enemies he faces include Jia Xu and Sima Yi.
Both men are top strategists.
Rape within the rape.
In a pure competition of wits, even with Zhuge Liang assisting them, it would be difficult to gain any advantage over them.
"Your Highness, do you mean to withdraw the troops?"
withdraw?
Liu Chan shook his head.
"Chicken ribs, chicken ribs, tasteless to eat, it's a pity to throw them away. But if you can tear off Runan's chicken legs, it will be delicious."
Retreating without a fight is not Liu Chan's style.
He wants to put up a good fight.
Play all the cards and decide Runan in one battle!
And this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, will be the last battle of the Han army in Runan County!
