Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 276 Mobilization Before the War
"Come here, quickly call the generals to the camp of the Chinese army. I want to discuss military affairs with the generals." After the personal guards took Tian Chou down to rest, Li Song couldn't wait to have the generals called to arrange military operations.

"Promise!" The guards outside the tent took the order and went to the various tents to inform the generals to come to the Chinese army's tent to discuss matters, and soon the generals gathered at the Chinese army's tent.

"Since everyone is here, I won't talk nonsense. This time I called you here to arrange the mission of marching into Liucheng and destroying Karasuma." Li Song looked at the generals in the tent and said.

"Prime Minister! But is there any good way to break through Karasuma's heavy barriers and attack Liucheng!" Zhang Yan stood up and cupped her fists and saluted. Zhang Yan had already suppressed her anger after fighting Karasuma all these years. Hearing Li Song He said he could eliminate Karasuma, and he was overjoyed.

"But there is a solution! I decided to withdraw my troops and leave this place tomorrow." Li Song said.

"What?" The generals were shocked!Especially Su Dingfang, Zhang Yan and others who were happy when they heard Li Song say there was a way, suddenly became downcast.

This is the so-called method of the prime minister, withdrawing troops?What kind of method is this? It is simply returning in vain. Su Dingfang, Zhang Yan and others looked at each other.

"Prime Minister!" Su Dingfang hurriedly raised his fists and said, "If our army withdraws at this time, it will be a waste of all previous efforts! Once Karasuma becomes bigger, it will be more difficult to eliminate Karasuma in the future. The court’s confidant is in serious trouble! Please think twice, the prime minister!”

"Prime Minister, please think twice!" All the generals stood up and clasped their fists in a salute, and echoed Su Dingfang. They came here without fighting a battle, and went back like this without any effort. How could they be reconciled, especially Zhang Yan and others.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Looking at the appearance of the generals, Li Song knew that they had misunderstood what he meant, so he couldn't help laughing out loud, causing the generals to look at each other. They didn't know why the Prime Minister was laughing, but they didn't dare to ask.

"Do you think I gave up attacking Karasuma?" Li Song asked.

Is not it?The generals slandered in their hearts, but dared not say it out of their mouths.

"The road leading to Liucheng here is basically impossible now, and now I know that there is another road that can lead directly to Liucheng without being known by the Karasuma people. By the time they realize it, it's too late. It's too late." Li Song said.

"Prime Minister! I don't know where this road is?" asked the forward general Li Cunxiao.

"The way is here." Li Song got up and came to the front of the map, pointing to a place on the map, and said to the surrounding generals.

"Isn't this Lulongsai! The prime minister means to take the road of Lulong Fortress." Su Dingfang blurted out, the generals who came with Li Song didn't know this place, but they had been fighting Karasuma in Youzhou for a long time. know where this is.

"That's right! I decided to confuse Karasuma by withdrawing troops, making them think that our army was really retreating, so that they completely relaxed their vigilance."

"In this way, our army can return quietly, take Xu Wushan, cross the dangerous point of Baitan from Lulongkou, walk out of the open area, pass through Pinggang, and then climb up Bailang Mountain."

"Even if we are discovered by Karasuma's scolding at that time, it will be too late. If our army fights out, we will be able to catch them by surprise! This battle, our army will definitely win." Li Song said.

"Prime Minister, what should we do next! Please show me!" Pei Yuanqing said with a salute.

"I decided to select [-] elite soldiers to carry out this task, and the rest of the army will be withdrawn without end. This will better convince the enemy that our army is withdrawing and cover the [-] elite soldiers marching from Lulong." Li Song said.

Here comes the question, who should take on the important task of leading the army to retreat, and who should take on the important task of leading the [-] elite soldiers to the back of Karasuma. Everyone here wants to lead the army to conquer Karasuma.

What credit can be greater than the credit of attacking Karasuma, if he can kill Karasuma Shanyu Tadun, that would be a great achievement, the prime minister is the leader who wants to be tadun.

"Prime Minister! The last general is willing to lead [-] elite soldiers to break through Liucheng and smash it." Li Cunxiao took the first step out of the line and bowed his hands in salute.

Seeing that Li Cunxiao took the first step, everyone was very annoyed and begged for their lives one after another. Even Li Yuanba, one of Li Song's personal bodyguards, shouted to go, "Prime Minister! Finally, the general is willing to break Liucheng for the prime minister and kill him."

Even if you can't grab the position of the chief general, it's good to take a step back and have a deputy or other positions. Maybe you are lucky and get killed by yourself?How to say this is accurate.This thought reverberated in everyone's mind.

"Su Dingfang, Zhang Yan, Jiao Chu, and Zhang Nan continue to stay on the front line to restrain the enemy. What if you all leave, and what if Karasuma becomes suspicious, so you four should hurry back and stick to your posts." Li Song looked at He looked at Su Dingfang and the others and said.

As soon as Li Song finished speaking, Su Dingfang, Zhang Yan and the others were completely wilted like frost beating eggplants!They sighed secretly in their hearts, they knew that the raid on Liucheng had nothing to do with them.

After hearing this, the rest of the generals breathed a sigh of relief. Without the participation of Su Dingfang and others, they had a glimmer of hope.

"Promise!" No matter how much reluctance you feel in your heart, it's still important, not to mention, how dare you disobey the prime minister's order.

Li Song nodded in satisfaction. It's normal for them to feel a little unbalanced, as long as they can follow their orders well, even if they object to it, it won't help, so the matter is settled.

"Tomorrow, I will personally lead the troops to retreat. Only in this way can we better confuse the enemy and convince the Karasuma people that we have no choice but to retreat." Li Song said.

Since Li Song took on the important task of withdrawing the army to confuse the enemy, Xu Chu and Li Yuanba naturally wanted to follow him to protect his safety, and the rest needed to select some generals to retreat with the army, so that people would not be suspicious. What's more, those who command these [-] elite soldiers must be cavalry generals, and the soldiers they lead must also be cavalry.

In other words, except for the cavalry generals, the rest of the infantry commanders naturally had to follow Li Song. Except for Su Dingfang, there were only a few cavalry generals among these people.

"This time the troops were led to attack Liucheng from Lulongkou. Shaoyu was the main general, and Li Cunxiao, Guan Sheng, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang were the deputy generals. They led [-] cavalry to Xu Wushan, passed through Lulongkou, and marched towards Liucheng." Li Song directly clicked Five people including Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao were killed. These five people are all cavalry generals under Li Song's command.

Hearing this appointment, those who are on the list are naturally happy, and those who are not on the list have no jealousy except for a little envy towards them.

Among these five people, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, needless to say, Li Cunxiao and Guan Sheng's strengths are obvious to all. Among these five people, only Zhang Liao and Xu Huang's strengths have not been revealed too much in front of everyone.

"The general obeys orders!" Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao clasped their fists together and saluted, accepting orders.
