Evil Shadow Chronicle

"General Zhao's words are wrong. The angel ordered that the place where the king of Hanzhong lived was only Yizhou, not the northwest. This place is Licheng, which is already under the jurisdiction of Tianshui County in Liangzhou. In fact, it has nothing to do with the king of Hanzhong. Also, General Zhao, please think twice and retreat in time to turn around!"

Xu Chengshou of Licheng was stunned when he saw Zhao Yun take out the legendary Nine Tin Remonstrance Dragon Whip. After realizing it, he immediately shouted!

"Xu Cheng is absurd. My lord Hanzhong King's Shiyi is indeed in the northwest. This is a well-known fact. Think about it. When my lord was Hanzhonghou before, he used Yizhou as Shiyi, and now he is named king. How can it be possible that the land of the city will remain unchanged! Such an obvious thing, why doubt it? If you are sensible, open the city to welcome it, otherwise it will be too late for the two sides to fight each other!"

Zhao Yun shouted in a serious manner.Although before the expedition, Xieying gave Zhao Yun the Nine Tin Remonstrance Dragon Whip as an arrow, but the main purpose was to allow Zhao Yun to better command and control the Yizhou army. Jushou, the military adviser, immediately offered a plan. Anyway, the Jiuxi Jianlong whip was in Zhao Yun's hands, and he could just use Xieying to be named the leader of the king, and seize the cities of Liangzhou without bloodshed. Taking a step back, even using this as an excuse can greatly save The hearts of the civilians in Liangzhou's cities made the enemy's morale general.After all, the names of recovery and aggression have obviously different meanings among the various armies and civilians, and everyone knows this!

This time, when they fought in Liangzhou, they joined Zhang Liao's army in Wudu City, Wudu County, and then left from Xihe and entered Tianshui County, Liangzhou, striving to capture the giant city of Tianshui.Then I want to use Tianshui County as a springboard to radiate to three parties to plot Liangzhou!And because Xihe originally belonged to the territory of Wudu County in Yizhou, although it was previously occupied by the Xiliang army.However, after the Xiliang army retreated and Yizhou County arrived, the city guards still readily offered the city to surrender. It is normal for Yixi and a small city to surrender under the iron hooves of the Xiliang army. Liang Dajun, that's really strange!So Zhao Yun didn't deal with the city guard.However, the city guard was demoted to Chengcheng, and Gao Lan was given the title of city guard, responsible for sitting in Xihe. After all, Xihe is the capital of Wu, and although Xihe is only a small city, its strategic position is extremely important. If Zhao Yun leads the army Conquer all over the country, and if Xihe Xiaocheng is captured, then the back road will be cut off, and in this way. ^^^^ Not only is the army in Yizhou unable to reinforce or communicate in time, the most important thing is that the logistics route is lost, and the consequences are serious.

"Since this is the case, does General Zhao have the seals of the documents of the Celestial Dynasty?"

I don't know whether he was persuaded by Zhao Yun's reason, or he succumbed to Zhao Yun's threat, Xu Chengshou pondered for a while, and suddenly shouted loudly!

"Here is the seal of the document! The holder of Jiuxi's admonishing dragon whip has the privilege of not participating in the upper hall and never quitting the lower hall, beating up the faint king and beating the slanderous ministers. Seeing the whip is like seeing the emperor. Why does Xu Chengshou do this?" ? Despise the Son of Heaven. Those who offend the power of Heaven should be exterminated. Xu Chengshou should think deeply and carefully. Even if he doesn't think about himself, he must think about his soldiers!"

Zhao Yun waved the Nine Tin Remonstrance Dragon Whip again.replied loudly.

"General Zhao is joking. As we all know, Jiuxi's remonstrance with the dragon whip is only effective against foolish rulers and greedy ministers, but it can't be effective in seizing cities! Besides, the humble old man is dim-sighted, and the distance is so far away that he really can't see clearly what General Zhao is holding. If General Zhao doesn’t have official documents and seals, it’s better to withdraw the troops as soon as possible! Reckless use of war is a matter of rebellion. It is a great crime to punish the nine clans!”

Seeing that Zhao Yun was still holding the Jiuxi Jianlong whip as a shield.No matter how stupid he is, he knows that Zhao Yun is just looking for an excuse to seize the city. The typical "want to be a prostitute and also wants to set up a memorial archway", Xu Chengshou is no longer polite, but shouted loudly!

"Since Xu Chengshou's old eyes are dim and he can't see clearly from a long distance, why not go down to the city for an appraisal, or let's do an appraisal in person!"

For Xu Chengshou, who is as shrewd as a ghost, pretends to be crazy and sells stupid old fritters, Zhao Yun couldn't help secretly getting angry, and shouted loudly in a cold tone!

"That's very good! But I would like to ask General Zhao to retreat first. It's such a laborious effort to mobilize the masses, with ulterior motives, and his intentions are frightening!"

Xu Chengshou said honestly and loudly, his loud voice seemed to contain sarcasm and disdain, thinking that Xu Chengshou had been the city guard for decades, and Zhao Yun was just a pair of nine-year-olds now, so Xu Chengshou naturally didn't Put it in your eyes!

"The marshal doesn't need to argue with this old fox any more. It is impossible for him to earn money to open the city gate. It is better to attack the city directly!"

Seeing Zhao Yun blushing from Xu Chengshou's anger, Ju Shou suddenly said!

"However, my lord has ordered that the battle of Liangzhou should not be attacked by force if it is not necessary. The city won by a forceful attack will also lose seven to eight out of ten. It is really not worth the loss! Besides, Licheng, like Xihe City, is the only way for our army to go through logistics. If you attack the place of rest and recuperation, the consequences will be unpredictable, so it is not the best policy!"

Hearing what Jushou said, Zhao Yun also knew that it was impossible to transfer to Licheng, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with Xu Chengshou. ^^ But he still hesitated and said in annoyance.Xihe City originally belonged to Yizhou, not counting the achievements of the Northern Expedition. This battle in Licheng was the first battle in Yizhou from the west, and it was also the first battle led by Zhao Yun alone. In addition, Zhao Yun himself was more inclined to perfectionism. Naturally, I want to carry out the maiden battle perfectly, so it is better not to lay down a dilapidated city like this!

"That's a good thing to say! But the current situation doesn't allow me to wait. Judging from the situation in Licheng, it is impossible to open the city and surrender. In this way, there are three ways to capture the city. First, use powerful siege equipment to slam the city. The city of Li was smashed into ruins, so it can be regarded as self-defeating, but as the marshal said, it is only a ruined city; second, driving a large number of troops to attack, so that the damage to the city can be minimized, only our army Casualties will be greatly increased; third, Licheng is on the verge of Panshui, our army can dig tunnels and divert water to irrigate the city. In this way, Licheng will be destroyed without attack. The city will not be damaged, and neither will our army, but it will be an empty city That's all! According to the Marshal's conditions, only the third plan is feasible!"

Ju Shou frowned and said slowly, as a military adviser with the army, military strategy is his responsibility.But Zhao Yun wanted to capture Licheng, but he didn't want to lose too many troops, and he didn't want to see Licheng suffer too much loss.It's completely embarrassing people, how can there be such a good thing in wars since ancient times.The only way is to persuade them to surrender, but according to the intelligence investigation, Xu Chengshou has been serving as the city guard of Licheng for decades, and now Yizhou County has just set off for an expedition and has no record, so it is a bit more difficult to persuade them to surrender!

"Diverting water to fill the city is a move that will harm the peace of the world. It is really an unwise choice!"

Hearing what Jushou said, Zhao Yun couldn't help but shook his head and refused. If it was Xieying, it was possible to carry out Jushou's plan. Let Zhao Yun implement it, and it would be no less difficult than letting Zhao Yun capture Licheng alone...

"In this way, the first and second measures should be followed! Use siege equipment to suppress the city wall defense army, and then use the army to attack the city. Try to combine the advantages of the two!"

Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Ju Shou was completely speechless, so he stopped speaking. The atmosphere was silent for a while, and finally Zhao Yun spoke out!

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison, because Licheng was the first stop in the Northern Expedition to Liangzhou, so except for Gao Lan who guarded Xihe City, the rest of the army's Northern Expedition were there, only Zhang Liao and Gan Ning were there; Xi Shi, Mao Dun Yaying, Mo Xuan, Niu Tie, Jiu Ling, Kua Tong, and Kuang Meng, there are four witches and four demons in total, and eight powerful generals.Let’s not mention the rest of the main generals at all levels!

"In this way, each will lead an army to attack the city, encircle three and attack one, and hope that Licheng's army will abandon the city and flee!"

Seeing that the generals were waiting for orders, Zhao Yun answered, paused, and suddenly looked at Zhang Liao, who was thinking aside, and asked:

"Wen Yuan, what do you think about the siege strategy?"

"The marshal is being humble! Licheng is such a small city, and the marshal is commanding the siege, so naturally he doesn't talk about it! Why do you need to talk too much about your humble position!"

Hearing Zhao Yun's sudden question, Zhang Liao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and blurted out as if reflexively cupping his fists!Zhang Liao never expected that Zhao Yun would ask him how to attack the city. After all, although Zhao Yun is young, he is also a handsome man. What he lacks is experience and experience. According to Zhang Liao's own estimation, Xie Ying made the North Expedition to Liangzhou difficult. Commander Zhao Yun also meant to train him, so Zhang Liao just silently followed the orders when the army came all the way north, and rarely expressed any opinions.In addition, Zhao Yun followed the lord Xieying all the year round and fought in the north and south. He has experienced countless battles, big and small.The difference is just how to achieve the greatest success with the least loss!

"Wen Yuan's words are too much! We are brothers, and I know Wen Yuan's talent best. Besides, before this expedition, the lord also told me that during the northern expedition, we should pay more attention to Wen Yuan in terms of marching strategy. Ask me, Wen Yuan doesn't need to be polite and humble!"

Zhao Yun looked at Zhang Liao rather annoyed and said, he was very angry at Zhang Liao talking to him in such a hypocritical manner!

"The state owns the laws of the country, and the family has its own rules! In the army, the army is talking about the army, but since the marshal asked, the humble officer will truthfully speak out what is in his mind!"

Seeing Zhao Yun like this, Zhang Liao couldn't help but smile knowingly. He still valued the upright, loyal and righteous Zhao Yun, so he said slowly, paused, and waited until everyone's attention was on him before slowly continuing. :

"Humble post thinks, don't attack!"

"Not to attack?"

"Don't attack..."

As soon as Zhang Liao finished speaking, several evil shadow generals couldn't help but asked in surprise and doubt!I don't know what Zhang Liao's "not attacking" means, do you agree with Jushou's third strategy... diverting water to irrigate the city?

"No attack? You mean to bypass Licheng and ignore it?"

After all, Jushou was a military adviser with the army, and he reacted relatively quickly. He immediately reacted, looked at Zhang Liao and asked!
