Chapter 218 (1/2)
Since Dong min's words, although he is still unconvinced in his heart, Guo si still dares not to confront Dong min, so he has to shut up. Dong min turned to Li Ru and continued to say, ”military officer, you can continue to speak!”
Li Ru nodded with a smile and could not help congratulating himself that he had supported Dong min's decision, although Dong min was mediocre when Dong Zhuo was alive. But now Dong min, has been able to adapt to this position, a dry Xiliang valiant has been Dong min to control. Li Ru continued: ”Chen Ren decisively divided the army into two when he saw that Wen Hou led his troops to intercept. I had to exclaim at Chen Ren's intelligence. On the surface, it is impossible to reduce the number of soldiers around him. However, this is precisely because of Chen Ren's self-confidence. Chen Ren is sure to use these 20000 people to resist our pursuers. Therefore, he will let his men take another part of the army along the Han River. The purpose is to inform the Dongwu water army who is staying in Shangyong. The water army of Dongwu is unparalleled in the world. Although the superior and mediocre Dongwu water army is less than 20000, even if we have more troops above the river, we are not their opponents! ”
Li Lianju quickly stood up to listen to the news
Li Ru shook his head and said, ”it's too late to go after Chen Ren now, and if we give up Chen Ren to pursue, Chen Ren will certainly sneak attack from behind us. Although our troops are far more than Chen Ren's men and horses, if Chen Ren uses a harassment tactic, I'm afraid that our army will lose a lot, and maybe the whole army will be destroyed! ”
Yang Feng asked solemnly, ”why don't you inform Zhang Wei of Hanzhong that there are more than 500000 troops in his hands?”
”Hum!” Li Ru's eyes shot a trace of contempt, and seemed to despise Zhang Wei. ”Although Zhang Wei's 500000 troops seem powerful, they are all forced by him to recruit civilians from all over Hanzhong without any training at all. If there was still some fighting power in the battle outside Hanzhong City, but this guard foolishly let Chen Ren run away. These civilians who had left his hometown would not be the opponents of the Dongwu army who had been fighting for a long time! ”
When Li Ru said this, even Dong min was a little flustered. He took Li Ru's arm and asked, ”military master, what should we do? You can't give up after so much effort? ”
Li Ru shook his head, and a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes. He said darkly, ”what General Guo said just now is right. We must attack the top of the mountain and kill Chen Ren! If Chen Yiyi dies, that is to break Sun Jian's arm! Sun Jian was no longer able to fight against the prime minister. When he fell down, the prime minister rose again and captured Yanzhou. Since then, there is no one in the world who can fight against the prime minister! ”
Dong min is still calm, but there is a trace of desire and joy in his eyes. If he really follows what Li Ru said, Dong min will not stick to Chang'an just like Dong Zhuo. What he wants to do is to conquer the world and become a real overlord!
Li Ru looked at Dong min, but was very satisfied with Dong min's revealed ambition, and continued: ”but tomorrow's war, we must plan well! Chen renshanshou is known to all over the world. At that time, only a few thousand people in Yuzhang city resisted the attack of 100000 mountain Yue! Now Chen Ren occupies the favorable terrain with a mountain top, but it is not easy to conquer the mountain top. So, tomorrow, we should be like this... ”
One night later, the sun just showed its head. At the foot of the mountain, the middle of the Xiliang army's camp began to sound bursts of drums, which directly reached the top of the mountain. Hearing the drums, Chen Yiyi immediately went to the edge of the mountain and looked down. At the foot of the mountain, the Xiliang army had already begun to march up the mountain, roughly estimated that there were about 120000 people.
”Don't move! Get things ready! Come on Chen Ren gave orders decisively, and the soldiers of Shandao camp behind him also made quick preparations according to the tactical preparations arranged before Chen Ren.
The soldiers of Xiliang are all fighting in the northwest all year round. Their endurance is not so good. In a short time, they have already climbed to the mountainside. Before long, they will fight with the soldiers of Shandao camp who are arranged in the front.
Chen Ren turned his head, and behind him were rows of logs. These logs were cut down from the mountain overnight by Chen Ren after he went up the mountain yesterday. On these logs, they were wrapped in coarse cloth for barracks. Chen Ren drank: ”all move up! Fire
The soldiers, two or three in a row, pushed the logs to the mountain crossing. The soldiers nearby held up their torches and lit the coarse cloth wrapped on the logs. The coarse cloth caught fire, and the logs burned slowly.
