Chapter 220 Abandoned son, lead snake out of hole

At this time, in the tent of the commander in chief of the Great Qi Army, Duke Lu raised his eyebrows, and the center of his brows formed into a small wrinkle, obviously the master was very troubled.

On his desk, there is a map of Dingxiang City and its surrounding areas with a radius of ten miles. The map is so detailed that one can even see the layout of the streets of Dingxiang City.

Duke Lu's eyes scanned the map inch by inch, and finally landed on a river named Qijiang.

The Qijiang River is the main source of water for the towns around Yanmen Pass.

And there is a tributary of the Qijiang River, which flows into the city of Dingxiang for the use of the people in the city.

Duke Lu's finger slowly slid across the map, and finally stopped on the tributary, staring at it for a long time, finally moved his finger away, rubbed his forehead, and the small pimple between his brows became more and more wrinkled.

He slumped on the chair, his eyes were blank, and his whole body seemed to be empty.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the position of commander-in-chief was not worth mentioning, what was there to argue with the British public?If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't argue, so as not to be in a dilemma now.

"Chi Jin, if you were the commander in chief, how would you break this round?" Duke Lu muttered to himself.

There was even a momentary urge to write a letter about the predicament in front of me, and send it to the British public eight hundred miles urgently, hoping that he could come up with a way to get the best of both worlds.

It's a pity that this impulse was quickly crushed by him. If he really turned to Duke Ying for help, even if he won the battle, he would never be able to raise his head in front of Chi Jin for the rest of his life.

"Commander, General Lu and General Ling are asking to see you." The personal guard came in to report.

Duke Lu came back to his senses, sat up straight, and said, "Let them in."

Lu Tian and Ling Xin came in and sat opposite Duke Lu.

Lu Tian spoke first, with a hint of urgency in his tone that he didn't realize, "Commander, have you formulated your next strategy yet?"

Duke Lu didn't answer, but instead asked, "How is the Yanshan Army doing now?"

Lu Tian was taken aback, but Ling Xin, who was next to him, understood what Duke Lu meant, and replied, "I went to check it out. Liang Zhenhai has already gone to train them, and he looks normal."

Lu Guogong nodded slightly, and said lightly: "After all, it is the soldiers brought out by Chi Jin."

He was also worried that after the Yanshan army personally killed dozens of Daqi people today, they would come back in a bad mood or find trouble with the Tengxiang army.

Fortunately, with Liang Zhenhai here, I think there will not be too much conflict between the Yanshan Army and the Tengxiang Army.

"I plan to attack again in three days." Only then did Duke Lu get down to business.

Ling Xin frowned, "Boss, is it too fast?"

Lu Guogong's expression was heavy, "It's not fast, it's almost the end of the year, and the saint must have a good year."

All three of them knew that Emperor Qi Cheng, who was in the capital at the moment, must be waiting for their good news. Before they set off, they had high hopes for them. If they failed to win a victory before the end of the year, Emperor Qi Cheng might not have a stable New Year's Eve .

Besides, since ancient times, there has been a rule of not fighting at the beginning of the year, and the attack can only be launched after the new year, so there is really not much time left for them.

"Then the coach is still sending the Yanshan Army to fight this time?" Lu Tian asked.

Duke Lu shook his head, "No, let the Tengxiang Army take the lead this time."

Both of them were puzzled, "Commander, everyone knows what the Tengxiang army is. If you let the Tengxiang army lead the battle, isn't it sending sheep to the tiger's mouth?"

Lu Guogong glanced at the two of them, and said in a firm tone, "I just want them to lead the snake out of the hole."

The two of them pondered for a moment, and then they felt a sense of enlightenment.

Ling Xin patted his thigh, and said in a slightly excited tone, "The Yanshan Army beheaded the people mercilessly today, and then charged so that the people of Xiliang understand that the Yanshan Army is a hard nut to chew on.

A hard bone that is not easy to chew, the Xiliang army will not think about eating it, and will only hide in the city to defend us.

But it is different with the Tengxiang Army.The Tengxiang army was defeated by the Xiliang army, and the Xiliang army knew that the Tengxiang army was not their opponent. Seeing the Tengxiang army fighting was like seeing a piece of fat.

The fat is right in front of our eyes. If the Xiliang people are moved, they will most likely come out of the city to fight. At that time, we can join forces to attack the city without having to work hard to attack the city. "

Using the Tengxiang army as bait to attract the Xiliang army is a strategy Duke Lu has pondered for a long time.

Lu Tian gradually calmed down, and asked in a deep voice, "What if the Xiliang army is not fooled?"

Duke Lu let out a sigh of relief, "Then we can also use the Tengxiang Army to test the response of the Xiliang people. If the Xiliang army does not leave the city, then let the Tengxiang Army go to attack the city."

Lu Tian and Ling Xin looked at each other, and they both understood the meaning of each other's eyes. Is the coach trying to make Teng Xiangjun an abandoned son?

"Originally, I thought that this first battle would be victorious, but the result was completely different from what I thought. If the Yanshan Army won this battle, the Tengxiang Army would still be useful and worthy of my wooing. Now, there is no Tengxiang Army left. It is necessary to eat and drink well, and Dingxiang City was discarded by them, so let them take it back."

Lu Guogong's words were light and descriptive, but both of them knew that it was bound to be full of blood and blood. It was always the people who took the lead in attacking the city and suffered the most losses. Since the Tengxiang army was released by Lu Guogong to attack the city, That is to ask them to use their flesh and blood to open the way for the army behind.

The two of them thought about it carefully, and counted and counted. Among the troops who are suitable to take the lead in attacking the city, one is the Tengxiang Army and the other is the Huben Army.Among the two, the Tengxiang Army was the most annoying to them. After all, they were angry at the people of Xiliang who presumed that the people of Xiangcheng had come out to die.

For Duke Lu, even though it was the Yanshan army who killed the people of Xiangcheng today, he gave the order himself in front of all the troops, and the news must not be hidden.

Since he couldn't hide it, Duke Lu could imagine how his powerful enemies in the court would pour dirty water on his head.It was the Tengxiang Army that put him in such a situation, so in anger, the Tengxiang Army was abandoned by Duke Lu.

Anyway, no one has the slightest sympathy for the Tengxiang Army, and Duke Lu has no psychological burden to abandon the Tengxiang Army.

Moreover, the Yanshan Army also lost hundreds of soldiers today. If the Yanshan Army is still allowed to fight in the second attack, he is worried that Liang Zhenhai will not show it on the surface, and he will have a lot of resentment against him in his heart.

Lu Tian and Lu Tian did not intercede for the Tengxiang Army, anyway, they didn't like Feng Hao, and they were also very shameless for Feng Hao's actions.

It's just that Ling Xin is quite worried, "I'm afraid Feng Hao will shrink back when he learns that Tengxiang's army is going to attack the city."

Duke Lu showed a sinister sneer, and his tone was so cold that it made people shiver in the bones, "Don't obey the commander's order? He thinks he didn't die fast enough? Then he will be fulfilled."
