This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 755

With a force of [-], they wiped out more than [-] enemies and captured [-] enemies. Such a record shocked everyone present.

He Chang, Governor of Chuanzhou, said to Chen Ling excitedly at the time: "The results of the battle are so rich, the town is still strong, and the prestige remains the same as before! It is really admirable!"

But after hearing what he said, Chen Ling suddenly sighed and said, "It's a pity."

He Changzai was stunned for a moment, and asked in puzzlement, "Why did the Duke sigh?"

Chen Ling glanced at Wen Ruyan, then shook his head and sighed slightly: "Unfortunately, the troops I have brought this time are really too small. If you give me an army of [-], I will definitely be able to kill Mu Xiqiu's eight soldiers tonight. The ten thousand army devoured them all! This time the troops were insufficient, and I did not dare to rush after them, causing the more than [-] Southern Chu soldiers to escape from the Tangshan Valley, how can you not feel sorry for this?"

He Changzai also sighed after hearing what he said, and said, "It's really a pity."

Chen Ling then said directly to Wen Ruyan: "Your Highness, you were a little too cautious this time, and you missed such a god-given opportunity for nothing!"

As soon as he spoke, the expressions of Ye Linxue and Xie Shan who were standing aside changed at the same time.

This is simply punish the heart!

If Chen Ling made a fuss about this matter, the officials in Yanjing's court would probably have objections to Wen Ruyan!

It was clear that he could defeat the enemy army in one fell swoop to secure the victory, but it was because Prince Jing Wen Ruyan was too cautious to lead troops out of the city, which led to the escape of the Southern Chu army. Impeaching Wen Ruyan?

They don't think so much like Wen Ruyan!

Ye Linxue wanted to speak for Wen Ruyan at that time, but was interrupted by Wen Ruyan. Wen Ruyan said to Chen Ling with an apologetic expression: "It's true that I was too cautious this time."

In fact, to be honest, Wen Ruyan is really not confused by Mu Xiqiu now, he never expected that Mu Xiqiu really did nothing, and just placed the army in Tangshan Valley in a grandiose manner. middle.

Could it be that he has decided that he dare not lead an army out of the city to attack?

But even if he was sure of this, but faced with such a god-given opportunity, how could he not do anything?I don't dare to go out of the city easily, but at least I will send someone to test it out, right?What he did was tantamount to sending the lives of his soldiers to his own knife.

What the hell is this guy trying to do?That was the case with the siege yesterday, and it will be the same tonight.He has a total of [-] troops, which is already a bit stretched, and now he has lost nearly half of them in less than two days. What is he thinking?

Wen Ruyan suddenly realized that he couldn't keep up with Mu Xiqiu's rhythm. He didn't believe that Mu Xiqiu had lost his head. This was absolutely impossible. Wen Ruyan had fought against Mu Xiqiu so many times. What kind of person is Qiu? Others don't know what kind of person he is?

It is absolutely impossible for a person like him to make a foolish move. There must be a reason for him to do so.

But what is he planning?

Wen Ruyan's frown became deeper and deeper, and Chen Ling who was standing in front of him thought he was annoyed why he didn't dare to lead the whole army to attack!
"Your Highness, for a handsome man, sometimes it's not good to be too cautious. Throughout the dynasties and dynasties, how many battles that can be passed down through the ages were won by the commander's bold command of the army? Sometimes too much consideration If there are too many, it will make me miss the opportunity for nothing.”

Chen Ling, who had just won a battle, was so happy that he couldn't control himself, and even dared to teach Wen Ruyan how to fight!
In fact, it was not his fault that he was excited. After all, at his advanced age, he was able to win such a battle, so the significance to him was extraordinary.

And this time, not only did he win the battle, but Wen Ruyan's aura was completely suppressed by him, killing two birds with one stone, how could he not be excited?
Wen Ruyan cupped his hands slightly to Chen Ling, and then said: "The boy has been taught."

"Your Highness is still a little too young, but the future is long, so let's think about it in the future."

The thousands of captive soldiers have already been escorted into the city, and the [-] army led by Chen Ling is also preparing to return to the camp to rest at this moment. Looking at the busy crowd around, Wen Ruyan couldn't help but sigh in his heart tone.

If I was more courageous, wouldn't it be possible to directly establish the victory tonight?
But that's the end of the matter, and there's no use regretting it.

Facing an opponent like Mu Xiqiu, it's really a headache!

Thinking of this, Wen Ruyan asked Chen Ling again: "General Chen, what is the formation of the Southern Chu army from the Tangshan Mountains?"

Chen Ling laughed loudly and said vigorously: "Drop your helmet and armor, and you will be defeated!"

"Really?" Wen Ruyan always felt that something was wrong.

Chen Ling, who was originally laughing, immediately darkened his face when he heard his words, and said, "Could it be that Your Highness thinks that I am exaggerating? Although I am not talented, I also know the word of integrity. I have fought on the battlefield for so many years. I have never exaggerated my achievements!"

Wen Ruyan quickly cupped his hands again, and said, "General Chen, don't be angry, I made a slip of the tongue."

"Humph!"

Chen Ling shook his sleeves and wanted to leave but was stopped by Wen Ruyan: "Don't go, General, I still have a few questions I want to ask the General."

"Your Highness, it's okay to say."

Chen Ling's tone was very heavy, and he didn't look at Wen Ruyan when he said this. Seeing that he was so disrespectful, Ye Linxue wanted to explode at that time, but Wen Ruyan stopped her with his eyes.

"Which direction did the defeated Southern Chu army retreat?" Wen Ruyan asked.

"The defeated army of more than [-] fled in the direction of Chengu County in a panic after they escaped from the Tangshan Valley."

"Chen Gu County?" Wen Ruyan frowned slightly.

"That's right, it's Chengu County."

Speaking of this, Chen Ling suddenly paused, then seemed to think of something, and said again: "By the way, I seem to have seen a small group of Chu troops crossing into the Tangshan Mountains, and they seemed to be heading towards Minchuan. went."

"A small share? About how many?" Wen Ruyan asked immediately.

"I made an estimate, and it's probably only five or six thousand."

"Five or six thousand, Minchuan."

Wen Ruyan's brows have already frowned into the word Chuan. Wen Ruyan naturally knows what Minchuan is. It is a natural moat. It is famous for its numerous swamps and canyons. Haunting, once you enter that ghostly place, even the locals may not guarantee that you will find the right direction!

Why did these five or six thousand Chu troops go there so well?What is their purpose?
Wen Ruyan, who could not keep up with Mu Xiqiu's rhythm, was even more confused now, even though he racked his brains and worked hard for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out.

"By the way, did General Chen meet the new emperor of Southern Chu, Mu Xiqiu, during the battle?"

Chen Ling also frowned, and said: "It's strange to say that I really didn't see that Mu Xiqiu, not only him, but there was not even a decent general in that valley. No one is commanding, otherwise the Southern Chu army would not be defeated like this!"
