The Era of Generals

Chapter 460   Unfamiliar Suggestions

To be honest, at this moment, Ouyang Lixing was a little at a loss.

Chen Ze brought him this kind of news at this time, and it has to be said that this made Ouyang Lixing think a lot.

This person, Chen Ze, is he a person who wholeheartedly cares about his allies?

Ouyang thought it over and over again, but he didn't think so.

Aren't Chen Ze and Yan Haomiao allies back then?

Although it seemed that Yan Haomiao broke the contract first, it was just an envoy sent by Chen Ze to speak.

Why Yan Haomiao made such a choice is not very clear to Ouyang Lixing. After all, although Yan Haomiao was caught by him, as an opponent who has been fighting, Yan Haomiao naturally refused to succumb to Ouyang Lixing.

Therefore, until Ouyang Lixing finally decided to execute Yan Haomiao, the other party did not express the doubts in Ouyang Lixing's heart before he died.

Ouyang Lixing didn't know about this matter, but Yan Haomiao was very clear about it.

Yan Haomiao capsized in the gutter, which is a great shame to him, and Ouyang Lixing has been his main enemy for a long time, how could he give in to Ouyang Lixing?

Let's talk about Chen Ze.

Yan Haomiao was the first in other empires to discover that Chen Ze was extraordinary, and he had underestimated Chen Ze at the beginning, so he suffered such a big loss in the end, and gave his wealth and life to a foreign country.

He, Yan Haomiao, was gone, and as far as he knew, the reason why Ouyang Lixing made this choice was that he would suddenly prepare to come out of Dongping City and forcibly take back the pass on the border, which was due to Chen Ze.

So at that time, Ouyang Lixing and Chen Zecai were allies.

The two have been fighting for many years, how could Yan Haomiao not understand Ouyang Lixing, and knew that even though Chen Ze did him such a big favor, in Ouyang Lixing's heart, he would never trust Chen Ze 100%.

If you don't trust, some problems will be exposed one day, so Yan Haomiao very much hopes that Ouyang Lixing will make a fatal mistake one day in the future.

Although this requires a certain amount of luck and depends on Chen Ze's future strategy, what else could Yan Haomiao change and plan?

He himself is just a prisoner, what else can he do other than gamble on his luck?

Yan Haomiao, who was already dead, naturally wouldn't know, but right now Ouyang Lixing didn't understand Chen Ze, and he began to have doubts in his heart.

However, Ouyang Lixing was obviously not prepared to completely deny Chen Ze just because of a doubt. What he would do next would depend on what kind of suggestions Chen Ming asked Chen Ming to bring.

So, while Ouyang Lixing waited quietly, Chen Ming made such a suggestion.

"General Ouyang, my son said that there is no other way but to seize the time to capture Juhe City and capture Zheng Yuanyun!"

Chen Ming seemed to have brewed his emotions, and when he spoke again, his tone was full of stern and murderous intent.

"Quick time?"

"Seize Juhecheng?"

"Kill Zheng Yuanyun?"

When Ouyang Lixing heard this, he immediately sneered and separated Chen Ming's words. Each sentence was the key point, and each sentence made the sneer on Ouyang Lixing's face deeper.

"Why would I do this?"

After sneering, Ouyang Li Xing said coldly: "If there is no mistake, isn't this the fault of your master?"

"Since it was his fault, why should my brother take his life to make up for it?"

Chen Ze's suggestion was to let him seize Juhe City as soon as possible, but Ouyang Lixing was not interested in this point.

Why did he do this?

To be honest, even if he came to Juhecheng, it was because of Chen Ze's threat that he had to choose to send troops to Juhecheng to confront Zheng Yuanyun.

It would be good to win Zheng Yuanyun, but from the bottom of his heart, Ouyang Lixing knew that he didn't have to do so.

He doesn't have that sense of urgency.

If Zheng Yuanyun escaped from birth this time, then Chen Ze would definitely have a hard time, but what about himself?

Ouyang Lixing's idea is very clear, no fault is merit!

He dragged his words until the Zhu Yan Empire was free to send more reinforcements, then he could retire.

So, why is it necessary to use soldiers from Fengqi Province to sacrifice for Nantes Province?

Just to get commendation from the empire?

So what if he got it, he wanted to replenish his troops later, but he still had to start with the Fengqi Province.

For example, he lost a million troops to take down Juhe City this time, so he would have to recruit from this province after returning to Fengqi Province to replenish the million.

But he obviously didn't need to recruit the one million soldiers in Fengqi Province. That is to say, in disguise, his reserve force in Fengqi Province was abruptly reduced by one million.

Although it was nothing at first glance, if something happened to his Fengqi province and the troops were suddenly insufficient, this problem would become obvious.

Of course, winning Juhe City and killing Zheng Yuanyun is tantamount to immediately solving the crisis in Nantes Province. The rewards from the Zhuyan Empire will certainly not be less, but Ouyang Lixing is not as grand as Zheng Yuanyun As a person, his own personality determines that he has always followed the safe route.

Not seeking merit but seeking no fault, and in the long run, it is not worthwhile for Ouyang Lixing to take the risk of losing too many troops.

In the current situation, who can be sure that after Zheng Yuanyun's death, the Qingyang Empire's offensive will end?

You know, according to Chen Ze's information, another reinforcement army of about 3.5 million is on the way.

The people have arrived, and they are still troops from neighboring Anluo provinces that are not under Zheng Yuanyun's control. Would these people be willing to make such a trip for nothing, without even fighting a battle, and just go back in such a disheartened manner?

At that time, Ouyang Lixing and Zheng Yuanyun fought each other, and he won a miserable victory, and then he had to face a larger number of reinforcements.

Then why should he?

Killing Zheng Yuanyun relieved Chen Ze's crisis, but his own crisis was still there, so why did he listen to Chen Ze and forcefully fight Zheng Yuanyun at this time?

He couldn't even figure out why Chen Ze made this suggestion.

Obviously, after receiving the information that the reinforcements arrived, he only needs to retreat, and then retreat to Tianyuan City to hold on. Why do he have to take the risk of attacking Juhe City?

Do you really think Ouyang Lixing is a fool?

The sneer explained Ouyang Lixing's attitude at this time.

"General Ouyang, you can't fight!"

Naturally, Chen Ming could see what Ouyang Lixing was planning, and immediately said: "At this time, if you retreat to the rear, it will be a slow suicide!"

"Oh, is it so?"

Ouyang Lixing took a sip of tea unhurriedly, nodded, and said, "Tell me about the method of suicide."
