That night, in the Jinan Army's military camp, there were endless sounds of wailing inside the tent. Outside the tent, many soldiers were huddled in different places, cold and hungry. The mighty army of tens of thousands now seemed a little desolate.

At this time, in the commander's tent, two captains of the Jinan Army were tied up and kneeling on the ground.

After taking charge of the case, Fang Sui, with a gloomy face, slammed the desk and said in a cold voice: "Come here, drag them down and behead them."

After the two were shocked, they quickly said: "General, we are innocent."

Others were also shocked. Did Fang Sui really want to carry out the military order? ?

Fang Sui looked angrily and said, "I have said that if the city cannot be breached, all the schools will be beheaded. You two are usually neglectful of discipline, which is why my army of tens of thousands was unable to breach the mere city of Lao. Push down and behead!" !”

The "general" deputy general took a look and quickly pleaded: "They are indeed responsible for this defeat, but it is mostly due to the sudden cold weather and the fatigue of the soldiers. In addition, the group of criminal soldiers organized by Wu Song also exceeded expectations!!"

"Yes! General"

"Please general, please show mercy!!" Others also begged.

"Asshole, a bunch of criminals caused heavy losses to my imperial army. It's not because they are incompetent, or something. Come on, kill them." After hearing this, Fang Sui suddenly became even more angry.

"General..."

"Who is begging for mercy? Military law will be dealt with!!" Fang Sui said with a cold face.

Upon hearing this, several personal guards rushed in immediately and grabbed the two of them.

"Fang Sui, you are an unkind general. You only care about your own meritorious service. You don't care about the life and death of your soldiers at all!!"

"If you are like this, I, Jinan, will be defeated."

Seeing this scene, the two captains knew that they would die, and they immediately cursed loudly and unwillingly.

"Pull it down!" Fang Sui shouted immediately after hearing this.

"yes!!"

"General" the deputy general couldn't bear it.

"Zhang Chong, because your father was once my benefactor, I have forgiven you for your rashness over and over again, but now the general wants to use their heads to scare the three armies!!" Fang Sui looked at the deputy general with something in his eyes. A chill emerged.

After Zhang Chong trembled slightly, his eyes showed deep disappointment. At this moment, he suddenly heard that before his father died, Yan Fang Sui was strong in martial arts, but he could only be a pioneer, not a commander. Unfortunately, he was too mediocre, and Fang Sui finally let him go. Then he gained Liu Yu's trust.

Killing generals to establish power can indeed intimidate soldiers, but that depends on the situation. Now that they have just been defeated, the soldiers have little food and clothing, and are already full of resentment. This can only be used to appease the goose, but it is not to kill the goose that lays the eggs for the sake of continuing the attack. , this will definitely make the soldiers below even more chilling.

"Xu She, Fan Li" Seeing that Zhang Chong was shocked, Fang She shouted again.

"Yes" The two captains stood up in shock.

"We must attack Laocheng tomorrow!!" Fang Sui ordered with a fierce expression.

"Tomorrow??" The two of them were surprised.

After hearing this, Zhang Chong couldn't help but said again: "General, our soldiers are so tired now that it is really difficult to fight. How about we repair for two days, wait until the food and grass arrive, let the brothers have a good meal, and then attack again!!"

Fang Sui's face darkened, and after a slight hesitation, he said seriously: "Then I'll give you two days to clean up the troops. If you still can't break through Laocheng, you know the consequences!!"

The two of them trembled in their hearts and immediately said: "Yes!!"

Soon, when the two of them walked out of the commander's tent, suddenly a bit of wind and snow fell on their cheeks. The biting cold wind seemed to seep through the gaps in the armor. When they turned around, they saw several soldiers cleaning up the blood. It was obvious that the two A former partner has been killed.

Looking around at the soldiers who were shivering from the cold and constantly looking for places to hide, their eyes were full of helplessness.

"Brother Xu, if this continues, if the winter clothes are not delivered, let alone two days, even ten days, it will be difficult for the soldiers below to fight. In addition, I have seen the situation today. Wu Song is brave and invincible, and his subordinates are also They are bloodthirsty people, and it is really difficult to exterminate them at this time of winter," Fan Li said seriously.

"Then what can we do? The general doesn't regard us as human beings at all. He only wants to make achievements." Xu She turned his head and glanced angrily.

"If we can't break through, I'm afraid it will be hard for you and me to end well. How about we find Deputy General Zhang?" Fan Li said.

When Xu She heard this, he shook his head: "You saw what happened just now. Vice General Zhang couldn't get a word in. The general is only thinking about how to defeat Wu Song. Now he can only wait for the food and grass to come and let the brothers eat well first." Let’s have a meal to see if we can restore some morale.”

When Fan Li heard this, he nodded and could only sigh helplessly.

However, as two days passed, Zhang Chong stood outside the village gate, looking worried at the arrival of the food transport team.

"Lieutenant, why haven't the grains and fodder arrived yet?" Xu She and Fan Li walked over and asked anxiously.

"I have already sent someone to urge you."

"Lieutenant, we only have enough food for half a day. In this weather, how can we fight without food?" Xu She was a little angry.

When Zhang Chong heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to find the general!!"

Looking at Zhang Chong leaving, the two of them had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Soon, when the two came outside the commander's tent, they saw Zhang Chong being forcibly dragged out by several soldiers. He kept shouting anxiously: "General, our army can't fight, we can't fight anymore." ah!!"

Seeing this scene, Xu She and Fan Li's expressions suddenly changed.

At this time, the handsome tent was opened, and Fang Sui, smelling of alcohol, rushed out and said angrily: "Xu She, Fan Li!!"

When the two heard this, they hurriedly ran to them, "General!!"

"Immediately send an order to attack the city tomorrow. Even if we fight to the death, we must capture Laocheng for me," Fang Sui gritted his teeth.

The two of them trembled in their hearts, but looking at Fang Sui's furious and ferocious face, they didn't dare to object, so they immediately said: "Yes!!"

. . . .

At this time, in Laocheng, a messenger came to Wu Song, cupped his fists and said: "Commander, all the grain and grass shipped from Jinan have been captured by Vice President Hu."

"Okay" Wu Song said excitedly after hearing this.

Chen Song smiled slightly, "If the food route is also cut off by our army, Fang Sui will definitely be unable to support himself. With his character, he will definitely make a last-ditch effort tomorrow, and then have no choice but to turn back to Jinan!!"

"He wants to leave, it's just a dream. If he attacks tomorrow, I will kill him tonight!!" Wu Song said coldly.

"The commander is wise, now is the best time to attack." Chen Song looked at the messenger and said: "Go back quickly and tell Vice President Hu to set up camp in Echo Valley. After our army's victory, the Jinan army will definitely flee in embarrassment. , tell him to stop him at all costs!!"

"yes!!"

After Wu Song looked at it, he said: "Military advisor, I have arranged ten tiger-killing guards to protect you. If we end up with an accident, they will escort you from the mountain path to Liangshan!!"

"Commander, there is no need to say anything. If we lose this battle, I, Chen Dong, will have no shame in the world. I will wait here for the triumphant return of the commander." After hearing this, Chen Dong said seriously.

When Wu Song heard this, he sighed and patted Chen Dong on the shoulder, nodded and said: "May God bless my brother, God bless Liangshan!!"
