It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 664

It is natural that Cheng Dalei is not good at fighting. If he is good at fighting, Song Bokang will not tolerate it until now.

Day after day, Cheng Dalei has become a scourge that cannot be avoided, and has reached the point where he has to do it and pay a certain price for it.

Of the five cities in Liangzhou, Song Bokang occupied four, Cheng Dalei occupied one, and Cheng Dalei developed another toad city. Today, Song Bokang can dispatch around 150,000 troops. In terms of military strength, he has an absolute advantage.

However, Cheng Dalei is a dreaded existence after all. Whether the whole army can attack Cheng Dalei or not is something that no one can say.

Dai Bai proposed to borrow troops from Jingzhou, but he also felt that it would be extremely difficult to eliminate Cheng Dalei.

Song Bokang pondered for a moment and said: "In the end, it is still necessary for Lord Cui Xiang to provide some weapon support. If you can lead troops, this is the best, but the Prime Minister's residence is afraid that there are no rich troops."

In Song Bokang's mind, he did not want foreign troops to enter Liangzhou. He doesn't want to be controlled by the Prime Minister anymore. Of course, this is still his personal thought, and he doesn't dare to announce it to the public now.

If he can destroy Cheng Dalei, he will only be eligible to make conditions to Cui Xiang after he has completely mastered Liangzhou.

Song Bokang sharpened his knife, the general trend was already on the line, and he had to send it.

And Cheng Dalei is naturally not idle at the moment. After he explained everything, he left Shuofang City with Xu Shenji, and returned to Toad City quickly.

Just after returning to the city, Cheng Dalei did not rest at all, so he summoned the main personnel in the city to hold a military meeting.

Attending the meeting were Liu Bei, Xu Shenji, Zhao Zilong, Qin Man, Wu Yong, and Axi. Because Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and He Shen stayed in Shuofang City, they did not attend this meeting.

Meetings are like that, sometimes the smaller the number, the more important it is.

This meeting was not in the hall of the city lord's mansion, but in the study room of the city lord's mansion. Several people gathered together, and there was no servant girl who brought tea and water.

Axi spread out the map of Liangzhou on the table, with the locations of the five cities marked on the map.

"Let's talk, what are your thoughts?" Cheng Dalei took a sip of tea.

Song Bokang controls four cities, all of which are extremely important strategic positions. In terms of resources, they are better than Cheng Dalei, and in terms of population, they are more than Cheng Dalei.

Cheng Dalei has always been qualified to bargain with Song Bokang. In fact, it is based on a few words: those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. If there is a comparison of strengths, Cheng Dalei does not have any advantage.

But in the current situation, Cheng Dalei no longer has the power to decide whether the war will start. He can only think about how to win this war.

In the study, everyone began to express their opinions, and everyone discussed a lot, sometimes quarreling over a problem.

Fighting must be fought, the key is how to fight? The strategy has been determined, and what everyone is discussing is actually tactics.

Conservative, decided to fortify the wall and clear the field to deal with Song Bokang's attack. It is not easy for Song Bokang to conquer two cities, and make him pay some price. As long as he pays enough price, he will choose to stop.

The more radical ones are to take the initiative to attack Jincheng, Wuwei, Haojia, Liangzhou city by city, destroy Song Bokang's military force, expel him or eliminate him, thus occupying the entire Liangzhou.

Supporting the radical strategy were Qin Man, Zhao Zilong, and Wu Yong. Cheng Dalei, who supports conservatives...

There is only one Cheng Dalei.

Cheng Dalei leaned against the wall, feeling a little speechless. Isn't there a normal group of advisors and generals under him? When they heard that they were going to fight with Song Bokang, everyone seemed to be fighting chicken blood. No one said that they wanted to be more stable and conservative.

"Master, how do we do it, you have an idea?" Qin Man said.

Qin Man looked like a steady person, and when he was so irritable, he couldn't help it now.

"The fight must be fought, and the decision-making power is no longer in our hands. But the purpose remains unchanged. The first purpose is to stabilize and win, not to expand the territory. Think about how to win this war."

There are countless advisors in the military policy mansion led by Wu Yong, and what they do is to use their brains. Regarding their training work, Cheng Dalei has never stopped.

Today is only the first meeting, after all, it is impossible to come up with an exact method. What should follow should be discussions, even quarrels, day and night. It is up to Cheng Dalei to decide how to act in the end.

Axi's Xizi team couldn't rest during this period of time. They had to spy on Liangzhou City's intelligence at all times and prepare themselves for the battle. They also needed to see how the other party prepared.

The meeting continued until the evening, and after everyone dispersed, Cheng Dalei also walked out of the study. When the cool wind blows, he wakes up.

Suddenly he thought that there was still a problem to be faced in front of him, namely Su Ying and Liu Zhi. He hid in Shuofang City for a while, but he couldn't escape after all.

He sighed helplessly and walked to the backyard.

I was in a hurry to come back today. I haven't met Su Ying yet. When he came to Su Ying's yard, he suddenly found it a little deserted.

"Master, you are back, I will wait for you to wash your feet." Liu Zhi came over and said.

Cheng Dalei nodded in agreement, Liu Zhi squatted down and helped him take off his boots. Cheng Dalei looked around, but still didn't see Su Ying.

"What about people, where did Su Ying go?"

"The madam went to Luoyu Village and went with the second madam."

"what……"

Cheng Dalei was a little speechless. Originally, Fan Lihua really felt bored and wanted to go back to Yuzhai. But she didn't expect that she would pull Su Ying away together, and she hadn't spoken to Cheng Dalei's ward.

Of course, it was not easy for them to tell Cheng Dalei, after all, Cheng Dalei had been hiding in Shuofang City.

Originally, I felt a little troublesome to see the two of them, but suddenly they were gone, and Cheng Dalei felt empty again.

"It's better to go out and relax." Cheng Dalei comforted himself: "I'll rest in the study tonight."

"Yes, I serve the boss."

At this moment, the military policy mansion is afraid that the lights are still bright and bright, discussing the current situation. Although Cheng Dalei entrusted this matter to them, it was impossible not to think about it himself.

After all, this matter is already related to the future survival of Toad City.

He lit the lamp and locked himself in the study. While looking at the information handed over by the Happy Character Team, he calculated the power that Toad City could use at present.

It's not an easy job, boring enough to exhaust all passion. Cheng Dalei endured boredom. On the surface, he seemed to be sitting there peacefully, but the waves were rolling inside.

The study is divided into an inner room and an outer room. Cheng Dalei occasionally rests in the study room. There is a small bed in the outer room for Liu Zhi. Sometimes she would go into the study, bring water to Cheng Dalei's tea, refill the oil lamp that was about to run out, and let it continue to burn.
