Now, Valens was thinking about intimidating Lu Xuan, asking him to leave Suraduo City, and buying him enough time.
Therefore, Valens said directly: "The news that Libius missed is that I have already arranged for people to return to the country and report to Her Majesty the Queen, saying that Tianzhu has countless gold mines, countless agates, and jade. These, I hope Her Majesty will send more troops.”
"Soon, the Roman Empire will have a large army coming. Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan, the overall strength of our Roman Empire is very powerful. Once the large army comes, you will definitely be defeated."
"I solemnly advise you to retreat now, give up the city of Suradha, and live in peace with our Roman Empire, and each seize the territory of Tianzhu."
"Otherwise, you can't afford the consequences."
"Once you all die in Tianzhu, or your army is defeated in Tianzhu, your Ming Dynasty will definitely be in turmoil."
A lot of words came out, and Lu Xuan laughed loudly when he heard what the translator relayed.
The laughter was even more revealing of disdain and contempt.
Valens said: "What are you laughing at?"
Lu Xuan said: "What makes me laugh is that you talked a lot in a long way, but in the final analysis, it only means two words."
Valens asked: "What two words?"
"Scared!"
Lu Xuan spoke loudly.
brush!
Valens' complexion changed slightly, and his hands clenched into fists.
Asked about his true feelings, he was indeed afraid, because his military strength had been repeatedly reduced. To this day, although there are still quite a few troops in Suradhuo City, there is still sufficient food and grass.
However, I was still worried inside.
Valens could not admit it.
Valens's eyes widened, he made a fierce look, and said: "Lu Xuan, the previous fighting resulted in the loss of some elite soldiers. However, I still have 40,000 to 50,000 elite soldiers in the city."
"I have piled up mountains of food in the city. There are countless people in the city. In the city, I have captured countless Tianzhu people. These are all capable of rushing into the battle as dead soldiers. Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan, I am guarding such a strong The city has countless supplies."
Valens said forcefully: "Do you think I will lose? Are you afraid?"
Lu Xuan said: "The more you talk, the more it proves that you are still afraid. Especially, your garrison at the port is gone, and all the warships out to sea have been seized by me. Now you are a lone army. You are afraid , isn’t that a normal thing?”
Valens' heart was beating even more.
Lu Xuan really picked on what he was most worried about.
With no way out, he was indeed worried.
Valens said bravely: "Lu Xuan, what you said is wrong. You didn't understand my intentions. It is true that it is good to have a way out. However, for me, whether there is a way out, it doesn't have much impact. Because I The goal is just to hold you back, block your army from outside, and prepare for the Roman Empire’s army to kill you. As long as I stop your army and the Roman Empire’s army arrives, they can join together to attack you.”
"How naive!"
Lu Xuan shook his head.
Valens said: "Lu Xuan, if you want to attack, just come and attack."
Lu Xuan smiled softly, but said loudly: "Why are you so anxious? Are you Valens so anxious to be reincarnated?"
Lu Xuan is not attacking now.
He was delaying time on purpose.
This morning, Lu Xuan led his men to attack, much earlier than planned. At present, Lu Xuan didn't know whether Zhang Ren's infiltration with soldiers of Tianzhu origin was going smoothly.
If it doesn’t go well, it’s naturally useless.
However, if everything goes well, Zhang Ren can coordinate Lu Xuan's army attack.
Lu Xuan first stalled for time to buy time for actions in the city. He didn't know when Zhang Ren in the city would take action. However, Lu Xuan wanted to make arrangements like this and arrange everything properly.
Valens noticed Lu Xuan's situation. He suddenly looked at Libius and Split beside him, and said in a deep voice: "What is Lu Xuan's intention now? He never attacks. What do you think?" What is it for?"
Libius said: "I can't understand Lu Xuan."
Split's eyes quickly rolled and he said in a deep voice: "Lu Xuan came with a large number of troops today. According to this posture, it is very likely to attack. However, many things to attack the city are based on internal and external cooperation, so I I think Lu Xuan may be waiting for action in the city. Could it be that Lu Xuan arranged for someone to sneak into the city and want to start a riot in the city? "
brush!
Valens' expression suddenly changed.
His eyes were sharp and he said: "Split, you are so smart. Yes, Lu Xuan must have this purpose. Now, let me test him and we will know the result."
Valens looked outside the city and said loudly: "Lu Xuan, what you are doing and your purpose is nothing more than to delay time so that the people who sneak into Suradhuo City can take action. Your idea is doomed to fail. .”
Lu Xuan was also stunned for a moment.
Valens is not simple.
He actually saw through his intentions, but it was naturally impossible for Lu Xuan to admit it.
Lu Xuan said: "Valens, you are thinking too much. All the defenses of this huge city are under your control. Do you think the soldiers I arranged can sneak in at will? Or that you are now, Don’t you even have this little bit of confidence in yourself?”
Valens didn't believe Lu Xuan's plan. He nodded to Libius and saw Libius going down to make arrangements for soldiers to set up a defense line inside the city gate to avoid surprise attacks.
At the same time, the captured Tianzhu people must be strictly controlled.
Valens said: "Lu Xuan, I won't believe your lies. I only know one thing. I have strictly sealed off the city. Your intentions and plans are useless."
Seeing Valens' determination, Lu Xuan thought of Zhang Liao and Guan Yu chasing the troops sent by Valens last night.
The other party's response was very subtle.
Before they even got close to the port, they already knew that the camp had been breached. Halfway through the retreat, they turned around and took another route to retreat.
Every step is exquisite.
The current judgment is actually the same, and the situation is accurately judged.
Lu Xuan smiled slightly and said: "Valens, people's hearts cannot be stopped. There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty, which is that those who have gained the right will have more help and those who have lost the right will have less help. If you don't treat the people of Tianzhu as human beings, arrest them and treat them as criminals." Control them like pigs and dogs, and pour fire oil on them, driving them forward like cattle and sheep. Finally, use fire to ignite these people. Such bad behavior is destined to fail. The general trend of people's hearts , there is nothing that cannot be overcome.”
Valens smiled and said: "Emperor Ming Dynasty, you now admit that you arranged for people to be in the city, and admitted that you sent people to sneak into the city in order to overthrow Suradha City, right?"
Lu Xuan said: "I admit it, can you stop me?"
Valens confidently said: "They will definitely block it. The untouchables in Tianzhu are all a group of weak sheep, a group of cattle and sheep-like livestock. It is useless for you to incite such people."
Lu Xuan smiled and said: "I believe they will be useful."
At this moment, Lu Xuan was looking forward to it.
In fact, when Lu Xuan arranged Zhang Ren's arrangements last night, he didn't have high hopes. Because it is not easy to sneak into Suraduo City, and it is not easy to organize the Tianzhu people in a hurry.
However, now that the words have been released, although Zhang Ren failed to complete the task, it did not have much impact on Lu Xuan.
However, there is always something better.
Lu Xuan was looking forward to it, intending to further delay the time, but just when Lu Xuan was about to continue speaking, suddenly, a raging fire broke out in Suraduo City, near the east city.
Immediately after this fire burned, fires burned everywhere in Surudha City.
Thick smoke billowed into the sky.
Lu Xuan suddenly laughed, his laughter was confident and even more joyful, and he said loudly: "Valens, look behind you and see clearly everything that happened."
Valens looked back.
