The Era of Generals

Chapter 159 Prelude

"It's really burned?"

Zhang Chengwang thought for a moment, but still asked uneasy.

"It's really burning!"

Guo Zi and Du Jun both said in unison, their expressions were extremely firm, Guo Zi even said: "If you are not at ease, the commander-in-chief, you can send scouts to Xiyun City to investigate. Right now, the poisonous mist forest and even the outer border have been blocked. General Ruan cleared everything up, and our army can come in and out at will!"

Being a prostitute for more than five years is not in vain. Guo Zi's face has long since been cultivated to be thicker than the city wall. When he tells lies, his face is neither red nor heartbeat, and his eyes are terrifyingly sincere.

When West Cloud City lost the first battle, there was no need for the scouts to continue to defend there, so they simply returned to the base camp with the news. Zhang Chengwang also knew that the other party would be prepared to fight West Cloud City, and it would not be worth the loss.

After all, if he divides his troops to fight Xiyun at that time, the troops on the frontal battlefield will not have an advantage, and he will not be able to continue to exert pressure on Bo'an City, resulting in the concentration of troops in Bo'an City not meeting his requirements.

Furthermore, it is true that Xiyun City is located far away, but it is very close to the neighboring provinces. Bo'an has taken precautions, so he can ask the neighboring provinces to increase their troops instead of using the troops of the headquarters. On the contrary.

Therefore, he did not send scouts to investigate the situation near Xiyun City, but instead concentrated on the frontal battlefield and waited for news from Ruan Wenshan.

The result actually gave him a big surprise.

If what Guo Zi said is true, and the two cities of Xiyun and Xichuan have been destroyed and burned, the situation is different.

The distant water cannot save the nearby fire. After the two cities were destroyed, it was already too late for Bo'an City to send troops or ask the neighboring provinces to send troops, and this fact could not be changed.

And the impact of this matter is far more than the simple destruction of two remote cities.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Chengwang did not immediately send out scouts to find out if it was true as Guo Zi said. In fact, Zhang Chengwang had already believed most of it in his heart.

The report of Guo Zi and his wife is reasonable, and this matter is actually a matter that can be verified by spending a few days to look at it. The two of them can't afford to delay these days with their lives, right?

It makes no sense.

Of course, scouts were still to be sent, but there was no rush. According to the information provided by Guo Zi and his wife, Zhang Chengwang still had a lot of things to consider.

The first thing you need to know is...

"Where is Ruan Wenshan? Where is it now?"

he asked.

"Back to Commander, General Ruan led the troops to the east side of Anluo Province. After breaking through two supply lines along the way, he retreated from the east side where he sneaked in, and opened up the east passage by the way. , so that we can have one more direction of attack!"

Du Jun replied solemnly.

"Going to fight the supply line?"

Zhang Chengwang was slightly startled, then suddenly laughed, shaking his head and said, "Wen Shan is a good person, but his structure is still a bit small."

As soon as this remark came out, Guo Zi and the two cooperated with a surprised and dazed expression. It seemed that they admired Ruan Wenshan's arrangement, but they were not recognized by Zhang Chengwang, and some dared not speak out.

Of course Zhang Chengwang didn't need to explain more clearly with the two messengers, he thought for a while and said: "You can go down and rest first, as I expected, there will be changes within three days!"

three days?

Hearing his words, Guo Zi and Du Jun heaved a sigh of relief.

Three days is not enough time for the scouts to go back and forth between this place and Xiyun City, that is to say, their lies will not be exposed for the time being.

At the same time, admiration for Chen Ze arose in his heart.

Although Chen Ze didn't know who Zhang Chengwang was, but based on his analysis of the situation, he guessed the reaction of the opponent's coach completely.

There are still three days, just look at the son...

Coming out of the coach's camp, Guo Zi was not at ease. Chen Ze only explained their rhetoric, but for himself, how could he achieve the "change" in Zhang Chengwang's mouth within three days?

This, Guo Zi really has no idea.

If there is no change after three days, and a few days later, the scouts sent by Zhang Chengwang to Xiyun City find that the situation is not as the two said, then what will happen to him...

However, Guo Zi did not blame Chen Ze for putting him in danger. On the one hand, his loyalty was extremely high, and he had an almost blind worship for Chen Ze. On the other hand, before coming here, Chen Ze had already For him, as well as Du Jun, they have thought of a way out.

Guo Zi believes that as long as Chen Ze's plan is followed, a hard fight may be unavoidable, but saving one's life is not a problem.

But I still hope...don't use that backup plan.

Guo Zi silently wished in his heart.

………………………………………

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

In the council hall of Bo'an City Lord's Mansion, Zheng Yuanyun's expression softened a bit. After hearing Chen Ze's whole plan, he frowned and pondered incessantly on the seat of the city lord.

"Other than that, I can't think of a better way to turn the tide of battle."

Chen Ze shook his head with a determined face.

While hesitating, Zheng Yuanyun turned his eyes to Mr. Luo who also had a dignified expression, and said, "Brother Luo, what do you think?"

A high-ranking adviser actually asked a general for his opinion when he was hesitating. Given Chen Ze's limited understanding of Zheng Yuanyun, this made him somewhat surprised, and at the same time gave Zongbing Luo a higher look.

"I think……"

Zongbing Luo frowned deeply again, and without giving in, he nodded directly and said: "I think this plan is feasible, but there are too many problems involved, and it will probably take a long time."

"Three days!"

However, Chen Ze interjected at this moment, and said resolutely, "We only have three days left. After three days, the opponent's coach will definitely become suspicious. Then this plan will not work!"

Zooming in on Guo Zi's map in his mind, he saw that little red dot moving calmly among countless blue dots, which made Chen Ze understand that Guo Zi had already done what he had asked him to do, so from this moment on, it was left to His time is only three days!

"In three days, we have to evacuate millions of soldiers and civilians from Bo'an City, and we also have to evacuate the food. This is a bit difficult for some strong people!"

Zheng Yuanlong had put his saber back into its sheath, but he couldn't help complaining.

"How many people are powerful!"

Chen Ze said with a smile: "It's actually not complicated. We only need to bring the minimum security for the rest of the military supplies. The most important thing is the issue of food and grass. There are millions of people here, and each person brings a little. It’s over, all that’s needed is an overall plan.”

"snort!"

Zheng Yuanyun said angrily: "It's easy to say, even if Bo'an City wins this time, its vitality will be seriously injured. Your strategy is really clever!"

Chen Ze remained silent.

The vitality of Bo'an City was seriously injured?

Compared with the destruction of the city and the death of the family, how important is it?

Besides, Zheng Yuanyun just listen to him, if he doesn't listen, at worst, all the stars will be released. With the strength of Zhao Yun, Ma Teng, Cheng Yu and other high-ranking generals, he can go out of Bo'an City instead, and play with whomever he likes.

If he didn't want to earn more military exploits, Chen Ze wouldn't have persuaded him so earnestly.
