The Era of Generals

Chapter 876   Make a play

Yan Xukai wasn't arguing with Chen Ze, but it was really possible.

When Huang Ren rushed to Tianhong City, he found that the scout troops he had left on the periphery had disappeared, so he would definitely be alerted.

Naturally, Houtian Hongcheng wouldn't let him in, so Huang Ren would definitely be happy instead of surprised.

Of course, there will be a little surprise, but Huang Ren will definitely be more ecstatic.

He was already displeased with the Xuanjia elites, especially He Wei, who was even more of a thorn in his side.

It's just that under the current situation, the Xuanjia elite can't move, and it is also the key to the battle in Nantes Province.

So Huang Ren can only endure.

It was precisely because of the need to endure that he had no choice but to forcefully recruit more troops.

Looking back at this moment, He Wei took the initiative to fall into the trap and blocked Tianhong City, and the scouts he left on the periphery were most likely cleaned up by the other party.

Well, the intention of treason is obvious!

This wasn't an initiative to give Huang Ren a good chance to take down the elite Xuanjia in one fell swoop.

As long as He Wei can be killed, why not get the command of this powerful force?

So Huang Ren actually hoped that He Wei would rebel, which would give him a greater chance.

Siege must be attacked.

So, as Yan Xukai said, what if the other party happened to let the 20,000 people placed by Chen Ze take the lead?

On my side, should I fight or not?

And Yan Xukai also believed that it was said that 20,000 people were placed there, but in fact, there must not be many people who really knew the plan, only one or two people, and most of the others were actually kept in the dark.

Don't forget, these people are former bandits.

It was already very difficult to force them into the enemy's formation, not to mention risking their lives to attack a city.

When did the bandits do this? I'm afraid their legs were already weak from fright just as they walked to the gate of Tianhong City.

At that time, it would not be surprising to directly say that they are spies.

This was what Yan Xukai was worried about, and he also believed that it was not impossible.

Being able to directly raise this, he is really thinking about the next plan now.

Chen Ze nodded and agreed with him, saying: "It is indeed possible, so it is necessary to arrange people to hide outside the city as you said just now."

"Of course, this is not enough, this matter requires the cooperation of Brother Gu and the others."

"Old Valley?"

Yan Xukai frowned, "You mean... let them go..."

"Will it be too much?"

He understood what Chen Ze meant, that he wanted Gu Qingfeng and the other five to perform beheading tactics.

But even though Yan Xukai had seen the formidable strength of Gu Qingfeng and others several times, Yan Xukai still thought it was too much to say that they could kill the enemy's head in the midst of thousands of troops.

And if Gu Qingfeng and the others can kill Huang Ren directly, then why are there so many entanglements here?

Even Chen Ze didn't have to let Gu Qingfeng and the others come to Tianhong City with him, but just let them kill Huang Ren, wouldn't the matter end?

Chen Ze didn't choose to do this, precisely because he also thought it was impossible.

It's too risky.

Huang Ren was surrounded by elite soldiers brought by him from the Bailie Empire, and how could he not pay attention to his own protection during the siege battle? Still slightly exaggerated.

Besides, Chen Ze probably wouldn't do this either.

Based on the love he has always shown for the soldiers, as well as the love and admiration of Meng Yang Guozi and others, Chen Ze is definitely not a wolf general who would sacrifice the lives of his soldiers in order to achieve his goal.

That being the case, what did he ask Gu Qingfeng and others to do?

"If you can't kill Huang Ren, why can't you kill others?"

Chen Ze smiled and said to Yan Xukai: "For example, before the battle, the general I arranged died, what would happen?"

As soon as this remark came out, Yan Xukai opened his mouth wide and didn't recover for a long time.

Can there be such a play?

He smiled wryly, and immediately understood what Chen Ze meant.

Yes, once the siege battle started, Huang Ren would of course focus on protecting himself, but what about the others?

In particular, the local bandit force in Fengqi Province who was forcibly recruited into the team by him and used as cannon fodder?

Huang Ren didn't care about their lives at all, so why would he send heavy troops to protect the bandit leaders?

But the problem is, the leader is also the backbone of an army, isn't it?

Once the leader of the army is assassinated before the siege, the blow to morale is extremely severe.

Although Huang Ren didn't care about the lives and deaths of these people, he cared about whether Tianhong City could be taken.

If the leader of an army was suddenly killed in battle, and he forced the army to fight a siege, then he would send someone to die.

Under the circumstances of grief and anger, whether the soldiers would riot because of this was a question he needed to consider.

Moreover, Huang Ren managed to acquire such a fortune, even if it was cannon fodder, it had to be placed where it was most needed, so why did he have to give it away inexplicably?

So it was very clear how Huang Ren would choose.

Substitution!

Even if he was lucky enough to directly pick out the troops that Chen Ze'an had inserted, but after the leader of the team was assassinated, he had no choice but to choose another troop to take over.

However, Huang Ren would not doubt this yet.

When the two armies are at war, assassinating the opponent's general is a routine operation, and it is a very normal thing.

It is estimated that Huang Ren would feel very grateful when he heard that a leader had been assassinated.

He thought that his prudence was not wrong. The leader who was killed actually became his scapegoat.

He never imagined that there would be someone who would make a scene of me killing myself to confuse his sight.

"Okay...strategy."

Yan Xukai thought over and over again, but he had to admit that there was nothing wrong with Chen Ze's strategy.

Killing Huang Ren or killing other people are two completely different levels of difficulty, and with the arrogance of Gu Qingfeng and others, they will never think that Chen Ze is sending them to die. Even Yan Xukai has a feeling that Gu Qingfeng I am afraid that I will still be dissatisfied with Chen Ze's order, and think that he should be sent to assassinate Huang Ren...

What's more, it was his own people who were killed, and it was just a play for Huang Ren to watch, so there was no problem.

The difficulty is so small that it can be ignored.

"I have no problem."

Yan Xukai shook his head. After Chen Ze explained the problem to him, he also knew very well that the flaws that he could think of had probably already been thought of by Chen Ze, and there was no need to deliberately remind him.

"Okay, then it's not too late."

Chen Ze looked at He Wei and said, "Then please ask Brother He to arrange the manpower."
