It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 812

A few days after the battle passed, the news reached Liangzhou City. This is also something that can't be helped. The two places are too far apart, and communication is inconvenient. And because of the war, many previous intelligence channels have been destroyed.

It is also rumored that this skill is still in play, and Cheng Dalei can get the news ahead of others. However, when the news reached Liangzhou City, a lot of false rumors and hearsay were added in the middle, rather than the true face of the truth.

As soon as he got the news, Cheng Dalei gathered together several important people who are now in Liangzhou City. Everyone worked together to analyze the truth of this war.

Whether Cheng Dalei is willing to admit it or not, he must recognize the fact that there must be a war between himself and the Rong tribe. Familiarize yourself with their combat characteristics as soon as possible, and it will be beneficial to your own side.

The information I got in front of me was shocking. Tens of thousands of people joined the battlefield, the elites of the empire came out, and the king of the Rong tribe participated in the battle in person. As a result, it was still the Rong tribe who had the upper hand and pushed their forces under Chang'an City. This siege battle against the first city of the empire would start at any time.

In the study, everyone's expressions are serious, and at this time, no one will joke around.

Liu Bei raised his head and said, "Big boss, in your opinion, can Chang'an City be defended?"

Cheng Dalei smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said: "The battlefield is changing rapidly, how can I get the answer. However, according to the current information, the Rong clan has a great advantage, but Li Letian is not without a trump card, and it is indeed not to be underestimated. Look at Chang'an's city defense strength."

"To say this is almost the same as not to say it." Xu Shenji interjected.

Cheng Dalei pouted, if he can really predict that the enemy will come first, then he will really become a military god. It is a pity that he is just a bandit with a family and a family, and he is very concerned for the survival of the people around him.

"What is the opinion of Miss Cui?" Cheng Dalei still chose to listen to Cui Baiyu's opinion first.

In any case, this girl must be a sensible person for Xu Shenji.

Cui Baiyu frowned for a long time and sighed, "In my opinion, Chang'an City is in danger."

Cheng Dalei nodded and said, "Go on?"

Cui Baiyu continued: "The art of war says that if you defend for a long time, you will lose, not to mention this time when the heavy army of the Rong tribe invades, it is inevitable to win the city of Chang'an. The key now is not whether the city of Chang'an can be defended, but how long it can be defended. If the Rong tribe breaks their long hair in the remaining months, then his strength will not be lost much. He can take advantage of the situation to invade the hinterland of the Central Plains, and then go to the south of the Yangtze River. The entire empire is in jeopardy.

However, if the time dragged on for too long, even if Chang'an City was conquered, the Rong tribe would lose more than the gains. At that time, the Li family lost its deer, and the various princes were eager to move, and it was a melee. "

"It makes sense." Cheng Dalei didn't care about the survival of Chang'an City, but he was more concerned about the changes in the situation after that: "So how long do you think Chang'an can last?"

"The Rong people have now used the four cities of Hanoi, Hexi, Dongshan, and Chencang as a deal to supplement their food and forage. This time, they will be planning for a long time to go south, and they will not fight an unprepared battle. It cannot be ignored either. Li Letian is also extremely good at defending the city. Not to mention..." Cui Baiyu paused: "Winter is coming."

The right time, place and people are the battle of the military. It is now from autumn to winter, and the weather is getting colder every day. Chang'an's winter is very cold, and the Rong people may not be able to adapt to fighting in the harsh climate.

Looking at it now, that is, whether Chang'an City can survive the first month, and only if it can survive the first month, this siege battle must be a protracted battle.

Fighting back and forth, consuming each other, the snipe and mussel fight, after all, the fisherman will benefit.

Cheng Dalei breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on the back of the chair, waved his hand lazily: "The situation seems to be unfavorable for the empire, but it is not difficult for the Rong tribe. The Rong tribe has always invaded, but only to grab some property at the border, and Don't dare to covet the Central Plains. It's not necessarily that they don't want to, they really can't swallow it. Let's see how the empire's mountains and rivers have exhausted the elite of the Rong tribe in this battle."

"Master, do we need to do something now?" Xu Shenji asked.

Cheng Dalei shook his head: "The situation is still unclear, and it's not yet time to start. We don't make a move. Once we make a move, we must seize the best time. What we need to do now is to strengthen the city and train troops, not to go into this muddy water. "

"Of course..." Cheng Dalei paused again: "Investigate the specific circumstances of this battle, and let the subordinates study hard. When Mo Dazhen fought against the Rong tribe, he lost his pants like the imperial army."

In today's Liangzhou, it can be said that everyone wants to fight, but Dalei has already formulated a big strategy, and everyone is not easy to resist, so they have to do what he ordered. Cheng Dalei doesn't necessarily want to fight, but his own family knows his own affairs. With the 30,000 to 50,000 people in his hands, it is okay to separate one side, and it is wishful thinking to fight the world.

Ye Yuanhuo and Li Letian can fight in a dignified manner. But with Cheng Dalei's current strength, against any of them, he is not qualified to be the opponent's opponent.

Like other princes, he can only be a spectator in this war about the survival of the empire.

However, this does not mean that Cheng Dalei has nothing to do.

After the military meeting, Cheng Dalei and Cui Baiyu came to the side hall of the City Lord's Mansion together. Bai Yuanfei had been waiting for him here long ago, and when he saw Cheng Dalei coming in, he immediately got up and surrendered.

"Big boss."

"Sit, sit, you don't have to be polite." Cheng Dalei waved his hand to let him sit down first, and said, "I'm going to tell you something, are you ready?"

Bai Yuanfei nodded: "Everything followed the instructions of the boss, and a total of more than 1,000 brothers were selected, all of whom have traveled through the rivers and lakes before."

"That's good." Cheng Dalei nodded: "This major event falls on you, and you are responsible for the thousand people. After the event is completed, the master will reward you for merit and deeds, and will never treat the brothers badly."

Bai Yuanfei agreed and left.

Cheng Dalei didn't say anything about what he was going to do. At present, only Cui Baiyu knows about it. Of course, there is no absolute confidentiality, after all, it is not doing something shameful.

The purpose of this mission is only one, which is to spread news and confuse the hearts of the people. Similar to what was done to Song Bokang before, there were some strange movements all over the empire, like King Toad, Liangzhou Xing and so on.

The purpose is to divert people out of the customs and defect to Liangzhou.

Cui Baiyu frowned slightly, puzzled: "Why do you bother to do these things, what is the benefit to you?"

"Accumulate virtue." Cheng Dalei said as a matter of course.

"Jude?" Cui Baiyu frowned even more.

"The world is in a state of turmoil and chaos, and it is still those who are suffering and helpless. Liangzhou does not promote swords and soldiers, and it can give them a peaceful world.
