Chapter 683 (1/2)
Today, his majesty is very old, and his health has always been poor, especially the last death of Luo Tianhan, which hit him very hard. Since then, Ying Yan has never been a member of the court. Therefore, in order to deal with all the possible problems, Yingzhen must leave enough troops in Bian city to meet the unexpected needs. But this reason can not be casually said, Kong De understood, Li Yuanhe also understood, but they can only bury this reason in their hearts.
Since it is clear that we can't add more men and horses, that is to say, we can only rely on 16000 people to attack naocheng. However, the strength of Nao city is too strong. In addition, with the protection of natural danger, it is very difficult for Yingzhen to attack the city. Li Yuanhe even thought that this might be the result that the fifth Prince wanted to win the sheep. Because he was trapped, he could not attack the city as hard as he could. In the end, he could only fail.
Think of the previous victory, although it was a successful rescue mission, but the southern expedition was not a success. If not for sun Shaoqing's ingenious plan and Qi Huang's persistent adherence to Danube City, he would have been a failure. According to what Ying Zhen said just now at the third prince's house, winning the sheep's expedition is also a black hand behind the winning sheep. I'm afraid the intention of winning the sheep is to suppress Yingzhen and the prestige of the two?
After thinking about it, Li Yuanhe vaguely felt that the whole thing was not so simple, but he could not think of any clue, which made Li Yuanhe have some headache. At this time, Cheng Hu suddenly seemed to think of something and said to Li Yuanhe: ”general! Are we going to take the general's troops on this expedition? ”
”Er!” Li Yuanhe remembered that he still had 3000 troops. These 3000 people were different from the soldiers and horses that Li Yuan and his army had brought before. This is Li Yuanhe, as a guerrilla General of the city guarding army. His troops and horses are completely owned by Li Yuanhe. In addition to the emperor of the post Qin state, only Li Yuanhe has the power to command them. Li Yuanhe didn't take the 3000 men with him when he followed Yingqi to the south. One of the reasons was that Li Yuanhe wanted to keep Yingzhen's heart in mind and said to Yingzhen that he would never join in with him. The other reason was that at that time, the 3000 men were training the gun array, and Li Yuanhe didn't want to interrupt the training.
After Cheng Hu's warning, Li Yuanhe realized that Ying Zhen asked Wang and himself to lead the 6000 vanguard army. In fact, he and Wang also led their own troops! Wang also has the same rank as himself, with only 3000 men. In addition, it is just 6000 people! It seems that this is no longer a question of whether Li Yuanhe should take it or not, but that Yingzhen has decided to let Li Yuanhe and his staff immediately.
It's no wonder that since Ying Zhen wants to leave half of his men in Biancheng, all of them must be Ying Zhen's confidants. Li Yuanhe's time to join in and win is not long. Moreover, Li Yuanhe's headquarters only listen to Li Yuanhe's transfer. Even if Li Yuan and the three thousand men and horses under his account were left behind, it would be better to leave behind other soldiers and horses that could command him.
Thinking of this, Li Yuanhe couldn't help but smile bitterly, turned his head and nodded to Cheng Hu and said, ”yes! This time we're going to fight with our own men and horses! If I remember correctly, the 3000 archers under brother Wang Ye will follow us, and then we will test the results of your training in this period of time. ”
Before Cheng Hu had time to answer, Zhao Yong, one of the Zhao brothers, cheered, ”general! You can rest assured! I'll show you the real strength of our bastards! It must surprise you Hearing that Zhao Yong was so confident, Li Yuanhe could not help looking forward to it. After all, the attack on naocheng was too difficult. If the strength of his troops was higher, the hope of success would be greater.
But at the moment, Kong Ling is still thinking hard, seems not to give up, hoping to come up with a clever plan to help Li Yuanhe conquer the city. Looking at Kong Ling, it seemed that Kong Ling was a bit fierce. Kong De just laughed, but he didn't stop him. He just turned to Li Yuanhe and said, ”Yuanhe! If you want to attack naocheng this time, I have a suggestion. Maybe I can give you some help! ”
In Li Yuanhe's heart, he was very worried about the attack. Even Kong Ling, who had always been resourceful, was at a loss. Li Yuanhe also felt uncertain about the future of his trip to the north. I didn't expect that Kong De suddenly put forward a proposal at this time, which surprised Li Yuanhe. In his impression, Kong De was the kind of scholar and scholar in the world. If he talked about planning, he would certainly not be able to compare with Kong Ling. Now that Kong De said this, Li Yuanhe was a little curious. He quickly nodded to hear what Konde had to do.
