The scouts in front reported back, and the calm camp suddenly became lively, and near the middle camp, officers of all sizes shuttled back and forth, sending orders from the middle camp to the troops.

When the soldiers saw Cheng Yanjin, they saluted one after another, and Cheng Yanjin had a calm face, opened the curtain and walked into the camp.

"General!"

"General!"

The generals in the camp tent saluted when they saw Cheng Biting Jin.

"Excuse me, tell the old man about the war, where to find the enemy, what the state is, come one by one."

As the commander of the three armies, Li Ji stood next to the map at the front, pointing to a certain place on the map, his face solemn.

"The scouts found the enemy's scouts here, and after a short engagement, three of our scouts were killed, all eight of the enemy's scouts were destroyed, and the remaining scouts continued to advance until they saw a large force of the enemy and did not turn back."

"This location..."Cheng Yanjin's face was moved: "This location is less than a hundred miles away from us, and it has bypassed Songzhou, if there are most enemy troops here, it can only be explained..."

Li Ji nodded with a gloomy face, and said in a low tone: "Well, most of Songzhou has already been lost, and we have already lost half of this battle before we have fought." ”

Although most of the people present speculated that Songzhou had been lost, it still caused a lot of commotion when it came out of Li Ji's mouth, and the commander of the first army said this sentence, which is very likely to indicate that the next marching strategy is going to change.

Will they rise to the challenge and continue to march into Songzhou, or will they divide their troops to guard the rest of the cities and wait for the next order from the imperial court? No one knew what Li Ji thought, so no one spoke.

Of course, this is the idea of most of these generals, with one exception, and that is Chen Fei.

"If I were a general, I would choose to continue the march." Chen Fei analyzed the situation a little and thought to himself. "Most of the generals are similar to what I think."

Sure enough, Li Ji spoke again. "Even if Songzhou has been lost, we still have to continue to march!"

Some generals were puzzled and asked aloud: "General, why is this?" Now that the enemy is outnumbered, and the offense and defense are reversed, it is an unwise choice for us to attack a city entrenched by 200,000 men with 50,000 soldiers and horses! ”

"Yes, it's too dangerous to do this, it's very likely that we will be put in the same fate as Han Wei, and we will be put together by the Tubo people, and then we will be really troublesome."

"General, please think again!" Several generals persuaded one after another.

Li Ji looked impatient and sprayed saliva at them. "Don't compare Lao Tzu with Han Wei, a fool, the old man plans to enter, so he naturally has Lao Tzu's plans.

Now Songzhou should have just been captured, the Tubo people have not yet gained a firm foothold, if we march in a hurry now, hit him by surprise, maybe we have a chance to take back Songzhou, if we wait until the Tubo people gain a foothold in Songzhou and build fortifications, Songzhou we don't have to think about it, the western border will fall into a long-term war, you say, is it to march or retreat? ”

The generals were silent.

The current situation is indeed as Li Ji said, if the army rushes to Songzhou, and the Tubo people have not yet reacted to give him a fierce surprise attack, it is indeed possible to recover Songzhou, but... The risk is too great! The other party has 200,000! Not twenty thousand! The strength of the army is several times that of our side, and the balance of this war is seriously tilted from the very beginning, how to fight? How to fight?

"History has really changed, Songzhou City has been lost, and it will be difficult to do it now." The historical materials recorded by later generations were no longer useful, and Chen Fei didn't know what to do for a while, so he was a little anxious.

Fortunately, Cheng Yanjin, Liu Lan, Li Ji, and Zhizhi Sili who were present were all veterans who had experienced a hundred battles, and they discussed with each other and simulated a rough plan.

"Cheng Chumo led a thousand cavalry as the vanguard, carrying thunderbolts first, using thunderbolts to defeat the 30,000 enemy troops that appeared in front, pay attention, only need to be defeated, do not chase deeply, so as not to suffer an ambush. Lead the army left and right, follow it, and march to Songzhou! Fan Jiang! ”

Fan Jiang clenched his fists and came out: "The last general!" ”

"I order you to take people to the surrounding cities and villages to search for siege equipment, build them as soon as possible, and send them to Songzhou!"

"Order!" Fan Jiang clenched his fists and retreated.

"Ding Hui!"

A general came out of the ranks: "The last general!" ”

"I order you to transport the thunderbolts, and don't guarantee the supply of the thunderbolts in the battle ahead, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Order!"

"Ge Feng!"

"The last general!"

"Order you to lead 3,000 cavalry to follow Cheng Chumo's vanguard troops, and if there is an ambush ahead, rescue them immediately!"

"Order!"

...................

Orders were issued one after another, and there were fewer and fewer generals in the big battalion, and everyone led the military orders to leave.

From the content of the military order, Chen Fei also roughly concluded Li Ji's intention, he wanted to take the thunderbolt as the center, give full play to the advantages of weapons, and beat Tubo into a daze.

Of course, this plan is completely feasible, if the thunderbolt is used well, the 1,000 cavalry led by Cheng Chumo can defeat the 30,000 troops of Tubo!

Suddenly, Li Ji looked at Chen Fei and shouted, "Chen Fei! ”

Chen Fei stepped forward, clenched his fists, and was about to answer when he suddenly reacted..."Huh? I? Chen Fei pointed at himself in disbelief and said in surprise: "Is there anyone else named Chen Fei here?" Is it really calling me? ”

Cheng Yanjin couldn't look past it, and stepped forward to kick Chen Fei is face: "Less nonsense!" This is a barracks, not a place for you to play around, hurry up and take the order! ”

"Yes! The end will be! ”

Li Ji touched his beard and looked at Chen Fei, his eyes full of kindness. "Chen Fei, I'll give you a hundred sergeants, and you're responsible... Evacuate the people of nearby villages and towns, and make sure that their evacuation is not mistaken! ”

"Whew!" Chen Fei let out a sigh of relief, fortunately he was not allowed to go to the battlefield, and it was still acceptable to evacuate the people. "The last will be ordered!" Chen Fei replied with his fists clenched.

"Get out of here!" Li Ji waved his hand away and drove Chen Fei away.

He took two steps out, suddenly stopped, and immediately turned around, leaning towards Li Ji and the others with a shy face.

"What are you doing back? Can't hear the command? Li Ji began to pack up the camp and prepare to lead the army to set off, and there was not so much time to talk nonsense about Chen Fei.

"Uh..."Chen Fei smiled a little embarrassed, "General Li, can you divide me alone?" The Modao Battalion, called Hu Di, grew up with me as a child...",

"Here you go! Get out! Li Ji impatiently gave Chen Fei a kick and kicked him out of the camp far away.

"Shhh Why do the old guys like to kick their asses one by one? Chen Fei rubbed his ass and sighed, limping outside.

"Boy!" Cheng Yanjin stopped Chen Fei.

"Uncle Cheng, is there anything else?"

Cheng Yanjin looked Chen Fei up and down, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Boy, complete the task well, experience the feeling of leading the troops yourself, don't take the task seriously." ”

It turns out that I still have such a thought in mind when I lead the troops to evacuate the people. Chen Fei thought secretly, and then nodded: "Don't worry, Uncle Cheng, I will behave well." ”

"Well, it's good to know, get out!" Cheng Biting Jin flew up, Chen Fei didn't have time to say: "Don't..."
