Chapter 1952 a trap
On the city tower of the new imperial capital, the emperor also looked at the troops in the expedition camp with a heavy face and kept attacking the city walls. In his opinion, this situation was undoubtedly very abnormal.
The West Camp did not launch a siege battle before, but wanted to lure them out of the city and engage in field battles with them. After taking the initiative to send teams in the New Imperial Capital City to challenge the West Camp, and then won the field battle in the West Camp, they still did not come to carry out this siege. From this point of view, they did not want to launch this siege battle against the New Imperial Capital City.
So looking at it now, they suddenly engage in this small-scale siege so frequently, which is very suspicious. You must know that such a small-scale siege can neither cause casualties in the imperial capital nor break through their city. Such a siege war, if the opponent's chief general is a wise person, would never do such a move.
In the Emperor's opinion, the current appearance of the Western Camp is likely to be a fraud, but he couldn't understand what the enemy's real purpose was, so in the face of such a situation, the Emperor decided to take a look first.
In the front line of defense, there were many people around Lord Wu at this moment. These were the generals who were conquered countries, and they expressed their views on Lord Wu one after another.
"Master Wu, the enemy has repeatedly launched a small-scale siege against us, like a fly. It's really annoying. Why not let the general lead his troops out of the city and give them a sneak attack!"
According to what these generals thought, the West Envoy Camp always carried out this small-scale siege. Although it did not suffer much damage to them who were defending the city, it was annoying. Well, it would be better to send a small-scale team out of the city to attack them, and give them a sudden attack while they were not prepared to attack the city.
I have to say that this idea is also a very good idea. But overall, for Lord Wu, he is really unwilling to take this risk. You should know that it is easy to send out a team of troops, but if this team is ambushed by the enemy, he will bear the main responsibility. At that time, this will be a very bad thing for him.
It can be said that it is very easy for these generals under Lord Wu to go out of the city to carry out a sneak attack on the siege camp. However, if the sneak attack fails and the losses are heavy, the consequences will be mainly borne by Lord Wu. Therefore, in his opinion, in this situation, he must carefully consider it, not
Be able to act easily.
These generals who were conquered countries were very dissatisfied with Lord Wu's conservative strategy. In the eyes of these generals, the Emperor asked them to participate in the defensive battle on the front line to give them a chance, and also to give them some results and pressure the local officials of the Hays Empire. Now they went out to fight with the enemy, but in a very short time, they were wiped out by the enemy's entire army. This was undoubtedly a defeat for them, which was a shameful thing.
Or in the next time, they should take the initiative to achieve some results, otherwise, how should they face the Emperor? How to seal the mouths of the local officials of the Hays Empire? For those local officials and the generals of the conquered state army, they knew that these local officials of the Hays Empire regarded them, the officials and soldiers of the conquered states, as slaves. This time, the Emperor was decisive and firmly held many key positions by the local ministers of the Hays Empire, and replaced the officials of the conquered states, which inevitably made these local officials of the Hays Empire very reluctant.
So at this moment, they should be staring at the officials of the conquered countries to see how they performed in the battle. If they performed poorly and could not establish matching contributions, then we can see that these local ministers of the Hays Empire would definitely not make them feel better in the future and would attack them in front of the emperor. At that time, the emperor would not not respond for various considerations, so the conquered countries' army now urgently needs to make enough military achievements. Like Lord Wu, he has been hiding in the new imperial capital city, not taking the initiative, but passively waiting for the other party to attack. When will he make contributions?
But now there is a good opportunity, which is the people who fought against the West Camp. For some reason, they started to launch a small-scale attack on this new imperial capital, and were happy to do so. After being driven away again and again, they came back. In such a situation, these enemy troops in the West Camp would definitely be a little careless. If they suddenly leave the city and attack the enemy troops who are attacking the city, they would probably be able to win a victory.
Therefore, these generals were all dissatisfied with Lord Wu's advice and spoke in words. It was because Lord Wu has been using this conservative tactic until now, which has caused them to lose many opportunities to make contributions. Just like the current situation, it is actually very bad for them.
Seeing this, Lord Wu never let go and did not want everyone to go out of the city to fight, so the generals spoke more and more unpleasantly.
"Mr. Wu, you are ordered to be the commander-in-chief of this front line. Will you fight a war?"
"That's right, I heard that Lord Wu was just a civil servant in the past, so he was scared by the enemy outside the city!"
In short, these generals who were conquered by the conquered state army complained and complained about this Lord Wu, thinking that this would not be a good thing for everyone, and would block everyone's opportunity to make contributions.
Lord Wu was also embarrassed when he looked around him. Of course, he knew what these generals were thinking, but in this case, he had to make careful choices. If the enemy used a strategy, then the losses would be heavy, which would be a very bad thing for him.
Now facing this situation, there is nothing much to say. He must be cautious, so if these generals make noise, Lord Wu has always been indifferent. But he also knows that if he keeps like this and ignores the demands of these generals, he will also offend these generals. As an official of a conquered country, and as they said, he was actually a civil servant before, and offending these generals who led the troops was also unfavorable to his development. Lord Wu knew that although the Emperor had taken a fancy to him and asked him to be the commander-in-chief of the front-line defense, if he could not make meritorious contributions, he would soon be abandoned by the Emperor. If he wanted to show something in the war, he had to win over the group of generals under his command.
So now for Lord Er, who is the Lord Wu, he is not ordering them to attack, nor is he not ordering them to attack, it is very contradictory. He Shao does not want to offend these generals, nor does he want to take everything by himself if it is the enemy's plan and after the heavy losses, he will bear everything by himself. So he remained silent and made no noise, allowing these generals to surround him and make noise.
Finally, Lord Wu said, "Everyone, listen to me first."
So the generals stopped and saw what Lord Wu said, and only heard Lord Wu say to them, "Now the enemy is launching a small-scale attack on us. It does seem like an opportunity, but we must also beware of the strategy they are using, so I think that in this case, we can go out of the city to attack."
"But also beware of the enemy's plan!"
