"Little military advisor, the spies outside Dingdongguan City have sent information that the Shu soldiers from the five lame battalions have returned to Chengguan."
After hearing this information, Chang Sheng finally smiled.
Although there was a buffer, either he or the lame man would carefully place spies outside the city gates to keep an eye on the movements of each army.
Looking at it now, it seems that the lame man sent five battalions to cut off the food road.
"How's the food going?"
"It was cut off by the Shu people."
Chang Sheng had expected it, so he was not too disappointed. That grain road was just a small test. Fortunately, the lame man probably didn't find any information. Otherwise, the five battalions of Shu soldiers would not have returned to the city early.
There are more than 10,000 people in five camps. No matter how you think about it, you can't rest assured.
"Military advisor, the stalemate in this war is not a solution." Yan Pi, who was standing by, thought for a moment and spoke seriously.
"Of course I know." Chang Sheng sighed.
For the current plan, whether it is Xi Shu who wants to break the situation or Beiyu wants to break the situation, we need to be careful. In this way, it seemed like a joke to have taken the initiative to tear up the truce agreement and blocked the Qianli attack. He has always been thinking about finding a way to enter Xishu, but now he has encountered a problem.
Chang Sheng rubbed his forehead.
It is clear that Beiyu is stronger, but now, it always seems to be at a disadvantage.
"Commander, over in Changyang, several old families have reported to the lord, saying that the military counselor...is not doing well in supervising the battle, and there has been no results for a long time."
Silence is always better. He had expected this drama. In order to divert the attention of the old aristocratic families, he tore up the truce agreement and planned an attack. Unfortunately, it was not successful and made these old aristocratic families even more unhappy with him.
There are also many memorials in it, saying that his clan brother "employed people on nepotism", "Chang Sheng was too young and had no ability to fight with lame people", and "Old Zhongde was blinded".
"Military advisor, what do those old guys know? If there is no military advisor to take charge, I am afraid that the current Dawan Pass will not be preserved."
"Yan Pi, I can understand these scoldings." Chang Sheng's expression remained unchanged, "After all, Beiyu relies on these old families to rise. Prolonged fighting without results is indeed a big problem."
"But there's a lame man on the other side—"
"These principles don't make sense to them." Chang Sheng lowered his head and thought deeply, "You also know that it is not wise to be trapped in Dawan Pass all the time. I want to kill the snake and let them make trouble for a while, then I will unload it to the north. The position of Chongqing Military Advisor."
"How can this be done! My lord will definitely not agree to it."
"Of course my lord will not agree. But if I write a letter, he will agree." Chang Sheng smiled, "Do you know, if you want to defeat a lame man, what are your chances of victory?"
"The morale of the army in Beiyu? Or the civil strife in Western Shu."
Chang Sheng shook his head, "None of this is right. If you want to defeat the lame man, you can only avoid his eyes first. I am sitting in Dayuan Pass, and he will keep staring at me. I have no chance. But with this impeachment, I simply left the front line and planned it secretly, and there was no chance it would be miraculous."
Chang Sheng breathed out, "But this matter must be done flawlessly in order to deceive the lame man. The interception of the grain road cannot be said to be a good opportunity. The information that I, Chang Sheng, was impeached reached Xishu. If my guess is not wrong, the lame man will also find a way to force me away. But it just happened, just as I always hope to win."
"Lame man, you and I will wait and see."
…
The war was stalemate. Except for occasional encounters and spies fighting each other outside the city, there was not much fighting.
But sitting at Dingdong Pass, Dongfang Jing is still waiting, waiting for a breakthrough that will always win. In this way, the five battalions ambushed outside the city would have a chance to invade Lizhou.
Of course, the previous letter from my lord also talked about Chen Fang. With the help of these people, the chance of attacking Lizhou would be much greater.
"Military strategist, little strategist, I'm so happy, so happy!" At this time, a general came over in a hurry. This ecstatic look made Dongfang Jing and Chen Zhong stunned for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
"My Night Owl Dead Soldier reported that after the food route was cut off, the old families in Changyang were extremely dissatisfied with Chang Sheng, saying that he was too young to serve as the military advisor. Therefore, they all jumped out to impeach him. ”
Dongfang Jing was silent for a while.
"The King of Beiyu will naturally not agree."
"Indeed, Chang Sheng is still hanging on. But in Changyang, those old aristocratic families are constantly asking for Chang Sheng to be replaced and find a more stable strategist."
Dongfang Jing smiled and said, "If nothing else, in Beiyu, no one else would be as good as Chang Sheng. In terms of strategy, he is not inferior to his master at all. If he had better luck, Qianli would be better than Chang Sheng." A surprise attack would have been successful.”
"Is there anything the military advisor can do?"
"No matter what, if Chang Sheng is forced to leave at this time, it will be an excellent thing for us in Xishu. Let me think of a way, as long as Chang Sheng makes another mistake, even if the King of Beiyu wants to protect it, it will probably be Difficult."
Dongfang Jing lowered his brows and looked carefully at the map in front of him. After a long while, he finally opened his mouth with a low voice.
"Chen Zhong, you take the troops of your camp and prepare to leave the city. Immediately, build a wall near Eagle Eye Pond."
Eagle Eye Pond is more than twenty miles away from Dingdong Pass and about ten miles away from Dayuan Pass. But no matter what, the enemy troops are not far in front of the formation and rushing to repair the Horn Walled City is a taboo for military strategists. When the time comes to attack the enemy's city, we need to capture these cities first, which is a waste of opportunity.
"Military advisor, are you going to fight?"
"Of course it is." Dongfang Jing's voice remained unchanged, "Chen Zhong, please remember that building a walled city is just a pretense. What you have to do is to kill the enemy. If I am not mistaken, I found that you are building a walled city. Dayuan Pass There will definitely be an army coming out of the city to fight with you."
Chen Zhong nodded with a serious expression.
"But remember, there is no need to fight to the death. Even if the enemy only kills more than a hundred people, they can retreat. I have a way to build momentum so that Chang Sheng is forced to leave Lizhou."
Chen Zhong received the military order and quickly turned around and went to the pass.
Dongfang Jing remained silent. Just now, he originally wanted to use the five battalions of ambushes to attack and kill the enemy. But after thinking about it, I gave up. The men and horses of the fifth battalion should play a greater role.
Chang Sheng, if he is really forced to leave this time. I wonder who will take over? It shouldn't be the sheepherder. The sheepherder has just joined Beiyu. Although he is old, his qualifications are far from enough.
Dongfang started to admire him for a long time, and then suddenly fell into deep thought. He also has to think about whether there is a possibility of a permanent victory in this.
