Crying and begging for a monthly pass! ——

The Chu army’s first attack on Hezhou City ended in failure. Hu Zongmao was indeed prepared for defense. The attack methods of the Chu army were obviously within Hu Zongmao’s expectations. The loss of the army was very low, and the Chu army that attacked the city, although it could not be said that it was seriously injured, it also lost troops and generals.

The Chu army set up camp just outside the city, facing Hezhou City far away.

Chu Huan had known for a long time that there would be casualties in this expedition. Swordsmanship has always resulted in death. Among the troops to be dispatched, Chu Huan specially established a medical team and recruited a group of doctors who understand surgery. Of course, these doctors were unwilling to go out with the army at the beginning. Although Chu Huan was in full swing when he went out, the battle between military strategists has never been fixed. No one can guarantee that Chu Huan can easily wipe out the rebels. These doctors , Of course I dare not go out with the army.

It's just that Chu Huan gave extremely high treatment, and invited a group of doctors to the Governor's Mansion, and persuaded them well. In the end, he managed to gather a medical team of less than 20 people. In fact, this medical team played a great role, and the injuries that retreated were quickly treated by the medical team in time.

This can not only deal with the injuries of the soldiers, but more importantly, it has a great impact on the psychology of the soldiers. There is a medical team in the army that specializes in saving lives and healing the wounded, and the morale of the soldiers is even greater.

Hu Zongmao's victory in the first battle was naturally high-spirited and his confidence was greatly increased. He wanted to throw a celebration banquet to show everyone his illustrious military achievements, but the Chu army was outside the city, and it was too early to celebrate at this time, and Hu Zongmao also guessed There was no telling when Chu Huan's next wave of attacks would be, so he did not leave the city. There was a special command room at the top of the city. In addition, wine and meat were also sent from the city to the top of the city. Every soldier received a limited amount of wine and meat. There was not much wine, just to let the soldiers feel the atmosphere of victory and boost their morale. Outside the city, Hu Zongmao didn't want to see drunken generals on the top of the city when the Chu army launched the next attack.

"The general is strategizing, today's battle has already let Chu Huan know how powerful the general is." The deputy general raised his cup, "general, the last general toast the general!"

Hu Zongmao laughed loudly, raised his glass, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Chu Huan's ability is not weak, and his methods of attacking the city have rules. He is not an ordinary person, but it is a pity that he wants to capture Hezhou. City, that is wishful thinking.” [

Of course Hu Zongmao understands how to speak. If he demotes Chu Huan to nothing and defeats him, he is just a worthless wretch. It will not help his military exploits much. Lift it up, praise Chu Huan, and describe Chu Huan as a strong opponent as much as possible. In this way, it will appear that you have outstanding abilities, and the gold content of victory will be greatly increased.

As soon as he said this, how could the group of people under him not understand what Hu Zongmao meant, and someone immediately nodded and said: "What the general said is very true, we also underestimated Chu Huan before, but in fact, this person is really very good. There is a degree, the gang of soldiers under him are indeed not a group of mobs, general, forgive me, if it weren't for the general, you would have prepared in advance to defend Hezhou City like an iron bucket. If it were someone else, today's battle, I'm afraid that Hezhou City will really be captured by Chu Huan."

"General, the last general also said something out of his heart. Although the general is well-known, the general was still a little nervous when Chu Huan's army came." Most of the soldiers under his command crawled out of the dead, and they were not easy to deal with. The last general had always had doubts about whether he could hold the city, but in today's battle, the last general already firmly believed. Under the leadership of the general, not to mention Chu Huan's current strength, even if he has several times the strength, he will never be able to capture Hezhou City." His voice was sincere, his face showed excitement, and he stood up , Holding the cup in both hands, he said with emotion: "It's really a blessing for the last general to be able to serve under the general's account!"

Hu Zongmao couldn't help being a little flustered, he laughed and said: "You can't say that, if you didn't fight to the death, and the three armies depended on me alone, this battle might not be so smooth."

The clerk He Kui didn't look as excited as the others, but looked a little worried. Hu Zongmao saw it and asked, "Secretary He, why don't you speak?"

He Kui raised his head, forced a smile and said, "I'm listening to you guys."

"I'm going to see that there is something wrong with your face." Hu Zongmao felt a little unhappy when he saw He Kui's forced smile. Everyone was happy with today's big victory, but He Kui seemed to have other things on his mind. He leaned forward slightly and asked Said: "Could it be that you are not happy to defeat the Chu army today?"

He Kui's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said: "The general misunderstood. Today's victory over the Chu army has greatly increased the confidence of the three armies. This is also because the general has a good command. How can the lowly position be unhappy?"

A lieutenant immediately said: "Secretary He, since you are happy, why don't you have the slightest smile on your face? Everyone fought hard for a day and repelled the Chu army. They are all very happy. You...!" He suddenly smiled and said, "I understand Now, Secretary He is a literati, and today he fought with the Chu army, Secretary He has no place to use his force, and he has not accomplished an inch, so he will inevitably feel unhappy, hahaha... understand, we all understand...!"

As soon as the words fell, several other generals also burst into laughter, and the laughter was full of ridicule.

The corners of He Kui's eyes twitched slightly, and he said lightly: "Everyone has misunderstood, He is not a man of great talent and virtue. Thanks to General Hu, he stayed by his side as a clerk, recorded meritorious deeds and crimes for you, and fought on the battlefield. He has never thought of doing meritorious deeds on the battlefield, so naturally he will not feel the slightest displeasure because of this...!" Glancing at everyone, he said solemnly: "But the current mood of the generals makes He very worried. !"

Hu Zongmao sat upright, grabbed a chicken leg, took a bite, and asked while eating: "Secretary He, everyone... everyone is very happy now, what are you worried about?"

He Kui stood up and cupped his hands to Hu Zongmao: "General, although we won today, this is only the beginning. Although Chu Jun lost his troops, they were not fatally injured. The current strength of the enemy and us is still very different. We still have to be stronger, but the generals won this round, as if they have completely defeated Chu Huan's main force...!" Seriously said: "Everyone, although He is a literati, he also understands the principles of military law. I said in the book that a proud soldier is bound to be defeated, a small victory will make you forget about it, don't forget, the Chu army outside the city is still a fierce tiger, it will rush at any time, we must not take it lightly...!"

Before the words were finished, the first general suddenly got up, pointed at He Kui and said angrily: "He Kui, what do you mean? The arrogant soldiers will be defeated? Are you saying that we will definitely be defeated? Also, you said that the Chu army is Tiger, isn’t this taking the ambition of others and destroying one’s prestige? What are you getting carried away with, hehe, how to fight, we know much better than you, and it’s not your turn to point it out!”

Hu Zongmao's face was also a little ugly. Although He Kui's words were aimed at other generals, he was suspected to be implicated in him as the chief general. Hu Zongmao is not a fool, in fact, he also understands that He Kui's words are not unreasonable. But even if he understands this truth, what He Kui said still made Hu Zongmao feel a little unhappy. He said in a deep voice, "Stop arguing. This is not a vegetable market. When the enemy is in front of you, don't fight with your own people first." Looking at He Kui said: "Secretary He, how capable Chu Huan is, I know very well how to deal with them, but there is no need to call him a tiger. If you forget about it, this is too heavy a word. Today Xiao Sheng, everyone is here to drink some wine, it's not just to boost morale, there are some things, it's better to say less in the future." [

He Kui listened to what Hu Zongmao said, so he didn't want to say much, so he cupped his hands and sat down.

A general said: "General, the Chu army attacked the city today and retreated in a big defeat. Now is the time when morale is low and the army's morale is low. It is already night. It is better to send an army to quietly leave the city through the side door and go around to the Chu army. From behind, attack the enemy camp at night, the general's side will lead the army out again, flanking back and forth, it may not be impossible to wipe out the Chu army!"

"Absolutely not!" Before Hu Zongmao finished speaking, He Kui shouted again, "This trick must not be used!"

Everyone looked at him, and there was disgust on someone's face. The general sneered and asked: "Unexpectedly, unprepared, at this time, it is very possible to wipe out the enemy with one blow, why not?"

He Kui shook his head and said: "The general's strategy from the very beginning is to focus on defense. This is an established strategy, and it is also our best choice at the moment. We must not change our strategy just because of today's victory. It is true that the morale of the Chu army may be really low now, and it may be possible to catch them by surprise, but this is just the best idea. In case they are ready and ready to deal with the night attack, Then we went out of the city to sneak attack, isn't it right in Chu Huan's arms? What Chu Huan wants to do most now is for our army to go out of the city and fight them. Take a risky gamble...!" Turning to Hu Zongmao, he clasped his hands and said, "General, if you stick to the city, our army has a great chance of winning, so don't gamble lightly!"

Hu Zongmao pondered slightly, nodded his head and said: "Secretary Hu is right, we are going to consume the Chu army to death, we must not be arrogant, without the general's order, no soldier will leave the city!"

At this moment, the sound of rumbling war drums was heard outside the city suddenly. There was a lot of wind and sand tonight, and the sound of the wind whizzed.

Hu Zongmao was startled, threw away the wine glass in his hand, picked up the saber on the table, skipped over the table and rushed to the door without saying a word, all the generals were also in a hurry and grabbed it Saber followed closely.
