Chapter 203: A small can't bear to mess with a big plan

The waiting time is always tormenting, and the troops from Xuzhou are transferred, and it is impossible to arrive without five days. And in these five days, Mao Wenlong must endure it, the enemy army has tens of thousands, and Yexian only has 10,000 recruits and civilians, and counting the 10,000 soldiers and horses brought by Mao Wenlong himself, only 30,000 soldiers and horses can go to the battlefield if they die.

And with only these 30,000 soldiers and horses need to repel the enemy army, Mao Wenlong is confident that he can do it. But there is no way to annihilate the enemy army, and when the safety of Ye County is guaranteed, Mao Wenlong does not want to easily let go of this group of people who beat his idea.

Although he had to pay some price for this, Mao Wenlong was willing to pinch his nose and admit it. There is no free lunch in the world, as long as it does not exceed the bottom line of what you can bear, you will be willing to pay some Mao Wenlong.

The 10,000-strong army hid in the woods, quietly waiting for the arrival of reinforcements, during which Mao Wenlong did not do nothing, he still did not enter the city, but he still informed the people in the city that he was outside the city.

This will give them the confidence to persevere and not panic in times of crisis. Facts have also proved that Mao Wenlong is indeed right, since he sent the letter into the city last night.

When Ye Xian faced the attack of the enemy army, it was obvious that they were much calmer, and Mao Wenlong was very satisfied with this, and he was relieved to wait with peace of mind.

Three days have passed, and Mao Wenlong has received the news that Chen Jisheng in Xuzhou sent someone to send first. said that they would be able to arrive in Ye County in more than a day, which relieved Mao Wenlong.

After receiving the news, Mao Wenlong was in high spirits and immediately ordered all the soldiers to be vigilant and not to slack off.

And in these three days, Mao Wenlong also took the opportunity to find out the details of the enemy troops who came to attack. It was actually Zhang Xianzhong, who was on the same path as Li Zi, which made Mao Wenlong not ready to let him go.

Zhang Xianzhong was in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he sat firmly in the first place, frowning. And several of his generals were careful not to speak indiscriminately, and he still stayed in Henan since he had an unpleasant encounter with Li Zicheng.

But during this time, what happened to him was very bad, and the imperial army had been chasing him and biting, and there was a great possibility of completely annihilating him. As a result, he had to run around, and the officers and men in the army were already exhausted and complained.

The most important thing is that there is a serious shortage of food and grass in the army, almost to the point of being unsustainable. Then he was very surprised, he learned about such a place in Ye County, and after investigating, Zhang Xianzhong found that it was very rich.

Zhang Xianzhong, who thought that there must be a large amount of grain and grass in Ye County, immediately started to think crookedly, he learned that this was the territory of Mao Wenlong, that is, the Dongjiang Army, although he had some scruples in his heart. But when the fire burned his brows, he still sent someone to borrow food, but naturally he couldn't borrow anything.

In a fit of anger, he directly pressed the border with a large army and surrounded Ye County. A small Ye County, and he also learned that Mao Wenlong was in Xuzhou at the moment, and Ye County was the most empty time, so Zhang Xianzhong did not hesitate and immediately sent troops to attack the city.

Four days have passed, and this seemingly small city has been repeatedly attacked, for which he has lost more than 3,000 troops. Seeing that the consequences will be very serious if this continues, not to mention that the army's morale is weak, now that the grain and grass have been cut off, if Yexian County is not taken, a large-scale rebellion will occur sooner or later.

What's even worse is that not long ago, news came that King Chuang's generals had encountered the returning army of Mao Wenlong. The two sides also fought a battle, and the army of King Chuang was defeated and fled.

"Mao Wenlong has already led the army back, and today we must capture Ye County no matter what, and something big will inevitably happen if it is late. You all discussed, how to break through Ye County and give me a way as soon as possible, did you hear clearly? Zhang Xianzhong snorted coldly, and directly frightened the generals in the big tent into shrinking their heads.

"Yes!" The generals did not dare to disobey the order, and they all surrendered their hands and said yes.

Zhang Xianzhong snorted coldly, turned around and left the big tent first, leaving a group of generals here to discuss.

As soon as he left, the big tent began to become particularly lively, with some complaining, some coming up with ideas, and some directly saying that the whole army would go out to attack directly......

There are all kinds of voices, but no one has done the Lord, and none of them have come up with any brilliant ideas.

In fact, in the past four days of continuous attack, they have tried almost any method they can think of, but they can't take this small Ye County town.

The chaotic generals couldn't come up with a good solution, and in desperation, everyone turned their eyes on the military advisor who had never spoken.

This person, about fifty years old, looks white and clean, and looks like a scholar, and he is indeed a showman. has followed Zhang Xianzhong for some years, and can be said to be one of his henchmen, and Zhang Xianzhong usually listens to his advice.

The military advisor's surname is Lin, and his single name is Ai, Lin Ai is completely a scholar, and he is still the kind of scholar who has no power to restrain chickens. Seeing everyone looking at him, Lin Ai got up and said: "Don't worry, everyone, there is no absolute in everything, it is not impossible to say that there is no way, but the consequences of the current situation are immeasurable." ”

"Master Lin, now only you can think of a way, we all listen to you, do what you say!" One of the generals immediately gave a small slap on the back.

Others began to echo one after another, saying that they completely listened to Lin Ai and would never say anything.

Lin Ai was praised by everyone, and his heart began to swell slightly, and he smiled: "In fact, in the past four days, we have tried everything, but with little success. Just now, the general said that it is a good idea to simply press the whole army to attack. ”

"Military, let's talk about this." Another general chimed in.

Lin Ai said unhurriedly: "Our army is more than 80,000 people, and the number of soldiers and horses defending the city in Yexian County is definitely less than 20,000. I believe everyone knows this in their hearts, so our whole army pressed up to attack, and maybe we could really succeed. ”

The generals were silent, it seemed that there was really only one way left for now, and the only thing that worried everyone was that if they didn't succeed this time, there would inevitably be large-scale casualties.

Lin Ai's gaze swept over everyone, and he bewitched again: "Generals, it's time for you to show some courage. For the rest of the life after the catastrophe that comes from the place of death, success or failure lies in this move, and if it does not succeed, it will become benevolent, and only in this way can the whole army be inspired to attack the city together. ”

"Yes, what the military said is not bad, and this is what Ben Shuai means." I don't know when, Zhang Xianzhong's figure appeared at the door of the big tent.

He continued coldly as he walked in: "This time, you have to hold the confidence that you must take Ye County, no one is allowed to retreat, even if there is only one person left in the end, you are not allowed to retreat!" ”
