Chapter 1257 Deprived of Power(1/2)
On the wall of Wuyou City, many heads were exposed, each with an interesting expression and without blinking an eye.
The city wall is very high, and you can clearly see the situation coming from Liangying...
"If a fight really breaks out, are they still civilians? Why do they look more powerful than the regular army?"
"yes!"
"This wave of riots is enough for Liang Jun."
"You deserve it. Without food, you are forced to attack the city. Who can bear it?"
The soldiers who were lying on the city wall and watching were talking a lot.
Guan Ning also held up the telescope to take a closer look.
The show finally begins!
Where there is oppression, there is resistance.
This sentence is indeed an unchanging truth.
If there is still no resistance, then the oppression is not enough.
Liang Jun's harsh treatment of civilian husbands is in sharp contrast to his own kindness to civilian husbands.
This will amplify their dissatisfaction infinitely...
Even our enemies are so kind to us, but our own people are constantly oppressing us.
When they attacked the city, the defenders of Daning not only did not cause any killings, but also gave them steamed buns to eat.
Sharp contrasts, strong contrasts, are all foreshadowing, and it only takes one lead to completely detonate.
That's it now!
The civilians unleashed a powerful fighting force, and Guan Ning estimated that this would cause at least thousands of casualties to Liang Jun, or even more.
The key is the impact on military morale.
A riot broke out before the battle was even fought. What kind of thing is this?
"Your Majesty, there is a riot in Liang Jun's camp. Should we immediately send troops out of the city and take advantage of the chaos to attack?"
The commander of the Royal Forest Army asked.
Several people around him also nodded secretly, this is indeed a good opportunity.
"Liang Jun has a huge force, but the civilian riots will be quelled quickly, and a strong army can be deployed for defense. We don't take this risk."
Guan Ning said: "What's more, our main purpose is to use Wuyou City as a barrier to delay Liang Jun's attack... Besides, we can all think of it, and Liang Jun can naturally think of it. Maybe it can be done now.
Ambush, waiting for us to leave the city."
"Let's just sit back and watch the show."
He was not in a hurry at all.
Our own forces are limited and we will never take risks unless we are absolutely sure.
If the delay continues, the supply pressure on Liang Jun will increase, and they are the ones who are anxious.
"Your Majesty is right."
General Cao Bin said: "The civilians have been rioting for a while, and Liang Jun's reaction will definitely be able to control it quickly. But now it is a stalemate, and Liang Jun did not send troops to guard against us at the first time. There may be a trick in this!"
"
This analysis is not bad at all.
Guan Ning smiled lightly and said: "Zhu Zhen is a smart man. He knows how to seize opportunities. He naturally wants to take the opportunity to lure us into the bait, but how can we easily fall into the trap?"
"Don't bother with it!"
"yes!"
Wuyou City has no plans to send troops at all.
But Zhu Zhen in Liangying did not know.
Perhaps the enemy wanted to wait for the chaos to become greater.
Or is it that Emperor Yuanwu has already seen through it?
This is possible.
But Zhu Zhen didn't want to give up this opportunity, or in other words, he wanted to take the opportunity to make up for his mistakes.
It can be said that he alone caused the riots among the people. If such a thing happened, it would be a trivial matter for his father to scold him. How could he convince the public?
If we can take the opportunity to draw out the enemy troops, we can make up for it.
Wait a minute!
Zhu Zhen hesitated with this idea.
In the former army, Li Chengliang, who was responsible for suppressing the riots, was under great pressure.
The laissez-faire attitude did not keep the people calm, but gave them many opportunities.
The soldiers at the forefront only stopped but did not kill, making them quite passive.
The civilians attacked one after another, causing casualties to the soldiers at the front.
This is not a small-scale riot, but a scale involving tens of thousands of people. How can we let it go so easily?
"Vice general, why haven't you ordered the shooting yet? Now it's just increasing casualties!"
A general came to ask for instructions.
Now it has become an encirclement. As long as the archers shoot from behind, it can be suppressed quickly.
Are you still waiting for persuasion?
People with red eyes can't even listen to what you have to say...
"I...go and ask His Highness for instructions."
Li Chengliang gritted his teeth.
What was going on? Just for a while, I don’t know how many soldiers were injured or killed.
Lure enemy troops?
He hasn't even left the city yet, so he has obviously seen through it.
The soldiers were sent to ask for instructions.
At this moment, Zhu Wen, who was in the camp, also received Zhu Zhen's approval.
He does have the authority to change the order, but he must also inform Zhu Wen, at least as soon as possible...
"His Royal Highness means that we can take advantage of the riots among the people to lure the enemy troops out of the city..."
Zhu Wen was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he asked: "Have the enemy troops left the city now?"
"Not yet. Maybe the enemy forces have to wait for the riot to become more serious before they..."
"Then you mean we don't have to suppress it and let it go completely?"
"His Royal Highness has ordered Vice General Li to suspend the suppression until..."
"absurd!"
Zhu Wen stood up and scolded directly: "When a riot occurs, it should be suppressed immediately. You can think of taking the opportunity to lure the enemy, but the enemy can't think of it?"
"Mutinies in the army and riots among civilians are extremely disgraceful things, so why don't they have to be made public?"
Zhu Wen said coldly: "Instruct Li Chengliang to immediately suppress the riot with all his strength, without any mistakes!"
"Summon the prince again!"
"yes!"
Seeing that Zhu Wen was angry, the general who sent the order quickly left.
Zhu Wen looked ugly.
He knew Zhu Zhen's thoughts very well. It wasn't that Zhu Zhen didn't expect Guan Ning's reaction, he was just lucky.
The first priority is not to annihilate the enemy, but to eliminate the impact of this incident.
In other words, how to put aside one's own responsibilities...
Zhu Wen felt more and more that Zhu Zhen's flaws were a bit big, and it seemed like he was going to beat him up.
After a while.
Zhu Zhen quickly returned to the camp.
"My son, I bow to my father."
Zhu Zhen knelt down on one knee.
"From now on, you will take back your military command authority. Before any order is issued, you must obtain my consent, and you cannot change my will at will. Can you remember that?"
To be continued...
