After the Bei'an Army arrived, they took a short rest and then began to set up camp.

On the city wall of the capital, Zhou Chong watched the movements of the Bei'an army with doubts in his heart.

Although he is a prince, he has no experience in leading troops and has to rely more on General Li Li Gui. At this moment, he took the initiative to ask: "Old General Li, won't Su Yuan attack the city?"

Li Guidao: "Attacking the city at this time is just a waste of lives. The walls of the capital are high and thick, making it difficult to attack by force. I guess that Su Yuan must have wanted us to take the initiative to attack out of the city."

"If that's the case, then we just need to stand still? Right, General Li?"

"That's right." Li Gui smiled slightly, "If Su Yuan keeps delaying the attack until King Qin's army from various states arrives and surrounds him, then he won't be able to leave even if he wants to."

Zhou Chong felt much more at ease when he saw Li Gui being so confident.

Although he patted his chest in front of Emperor Qingxiang and boasted that he would defeat Su Yuan in Haikou and return victorious, when he actually came to the battlefield and saw the black group of Bei'an troops, he still couldn't help but feel nervous.

If his first battle was against an unknown and small opponent, he might be more relaxed. But Su Yuan is by no means a small opponent. He is the one who captured the two states of Moqing in the Great Zhou Dynasty and is the number one rebel in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The Bei'an Army under his command has become even more famous and has never been defeated so far.

What made him even more frightened was that it was rumored that Su Yuan was different from ordinary people. He had practiced strange magic and had unpredictable powers. He could even pull bones out of dead bodies and turn them into soldiers for him to drive.

With this information in front of him, it is normal for Zhou Chong, a young boy, to be worried and scared.

On the other hand, Li Gui, who had been a soldier for most of his life, did not care about these strange forces and chaotic gods. He just firmly believed that as long as he did not greedy for merit, did not advance rashly, and did not underestimate the enemy, then he would be very sure of victory in this battle.

At this time, a cough sounded from behind.

"Ahem..."

The two turned around and saw Fu Chengyang, the chief eunuch, coming from behind.

Fu Chengyang was also wearing a military uniform at this moment, and the makeup and powder he usually applied to his face had been wiped away, revealing a face that looked old but full of energy.

Zhou Chong was startled. He almost didn't recognize the person in front of him. Is he really Eunuch Fu, the chief steward in the palace?

Li Guidao: "Eunuch Fu is here."

"Yes. Our family has been ordered to join this battle."

Fu Chengyang walked to the two of them and looked towards Bei'an Jun.

Zhou Chong hesitated, then said gratefully: "Eunuch Fu, thank you very much for what happened before."

The reason why Fu Chengyang came to join the war was because he said the wrong thing in front of Qing Xiang. And the wrong thing he said was because of Zhou Chong.

When Zhou Chong met him at this time, he naturally wanted to mention it.

"What are you saying, Your Highness? It is your duty as a servant to worry about Your Highness's safety." Fu Chengyang smiled and looked at Zhou Chong with a flash of love in his eyes.

Zhou Chong nodded, while Li Gui said nothing.

Li Shengtian's attitude toward Fu Chengyang back then must have been similar to that of Li Gui.

The Li family had no good impression of this powerful eunuch, but Li Gui knew that now was definitely not the time for internal fighting. No matter how much he despised Fu Chengyang in his heart, he still had to join forces with him to get Su Yuan away first.

"I heard that Eunuch Fu is very powerful in martial arts." Li Guiping said calmly, "Can I have a chance to kill Su Yuange or capture him alive? In that case, this battle will be over in the shortest possible time."

Fu Chengyang looked at the camp being established by the Bei'an Army and said: "If we can find Su Yuan, it will not be difficult to catch him. But I believe General Li also read the battle report sent by Sichuan City. That Su Yuan is cunning and insidious

, he is very cautious, often dressing up as an ordinary soldier, and blending into the army, it is very difficult to find him."

"..."

Li Gui had indeed seen the battle report and was surprised by Su Yuan's actions.

Even if he is a rebel, he is still a prince and a person of respected status. It is not easy for such a person to dress up as an ordinary soldier for the sake of safety and prudence.

It should be noted that there are many junior corps commanders and senior officers in the army. If there is even a junior officer, they can't wait to change into a belt to show that they are higher than ordinary soldiers.

"However, he can hide himself because he has not practiced martial arts." Fu Chengyang continued, "But the white-robed young man named 'Zhao Yun' cannot hide himself. If he can be killed or captured alive, it will be a big blow to Bei

Anjun will be a major blow."

"Zhao Yun... this man is very witty, I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture him alive!"

Combining multiple battle reports, Li Gui probably knows everyone in Su Yuan's army.

Among them, the one that needs the most attention is Zhao Yun.

This is not only because Zhao Yun is a master of martial arts, but also because he is very good at leading troops in combat. Combined with his own martial arts, the combat effectiveness is greatly improved.

Brain is the key here, martial arts is secondary. With this brain, even if Zhao Yun doesn't know martial arts, he can still become a famous general.

Li Gui looked at Fu Chengyang and asked solemnly: "Could Eunuch Fu be able to bring back Zhao Yun's head from the crowd of thousands of troops?"

"...it's not easy."

Fu Chengyang didn't want to tell Li Gui, but he could actually do it.

As a Grand Master, the power he possesses is already extraordinary.

The innate state can survive for a moment under the encirclement of the army, the grandmaster can come and go freely at the beginning, and the grandmaster...if equipped with a certain number of elite soldiers, he can stand alone against an army.

But Fu Chengyang won't do that, he doesn't want to reveal his trump card easily.

Especially this time after Emperor Qingxiang asked him to come to the front line.

He knew very well that although Emperor Qingxiang was mediocre in government affairs, he was very shrewd when it came to his children. To be precise, no emperor of any generation would be stupid in this matter.

Because except for some puppets who were supported to the throne, most other emperors had fought with other princes as princes before they ascended the throne.

In ordinary people's homes, some brothers will fight against each other over the separation of the family, and in the end they will fight each other, with blood splattering everywhere. What about the royal family?

Emperor Qingxiang himself had gone through this before, and he defeated several princes through competition before he took this position. Therefore, he must be very aware of how many conspiracies there are.

Fu Chengyang did not calm down before and said too much. Not only did he harm himself, but Zhou Chong was also vaguely implicated. Even if Emperor Qingxiang didn't show it, Fu Chengyang knew that the emperor would probably suspect that Zhou Chong had some secret connection with him, the chief eunuch.

.

This is a big taboo for the royal family. For this reason, Fu Chengyang was sent out from the palace with just one sentence. It was said that he was sent out, but in fact, it was more like being driven out. Let him come to the battlefield. I'm afraid...

Fu Chengyang thought to himself: "I'm afraid Qingxiang wants me to die in Su Yuan's hands."

He had been a eunuch for so many years, and he was still good at guessing the emperor's intentions. While Fu Chengyang was guessing, he also hated Qing Xiang in his heart, but this hatred would not last long.

Because he knew that it would not be long before his biological son ascended the throne. By then, when father and son recognized each other, it was still up to two minds whether Jiang Shan would continue to be surnamed Zhou or change his surname to Fu.

"I think we should listen to General Li." Zhou Chong said, "We will defend the capital. If Su Yuan wants to attack, just use stone bows and arrows to entertain him!" He clenched his fists hard, his eyes shining, "Wait a minute.

As soon as reinforcements from other states arrive, we will take the initiative to send troops to surround the Bei'an Army and completely wipe out this group of rebels!"

Li Gui nodded: "This is the most reliable strategy to defend the city."

Fu Chengyang also agreed that if the war could be ended without him taking action, then he would not take action.

On the other side, Bei'an Military Department.

The camp was quickly set up. Su Yuan and others looked at the city wall of the capital and saw that there was no movement from the other side, and they roughly guessed the opponent's strategy.

Su Yuandao: "This battle is not easy to fight. Is there any way to lure the opponent out of the city? If possible, it is best to fight in the wild. The losses during the siege will be too high."

Zhou Shu agreed with him, but there was nothing she could do.

Some situations, or some dead ends, cannot be solved by strategy, and strategy is not omnipotent in nature.

Even the wise Zhuge Kongming was helpless when faced with Sima Yi who refused to fight.

The current situation is naturally not analogous, but there are similarities.

Zhao Yundao said: "My lord, why don't you lead your troops to attack first, and then pretend to be defeated and run away to see if you can lure the enemy out to pursue them?"

"Fake defeat?" Su Yuan's eyes lit up, this was a good idea.

only……

"I'm afraid the other party won't fall into the trap." Zhou Shu said pessimistically, "The one guarding the city is General Li Guili. He has been in the military for half his life and has experienced countless battles. He must have seen and used many deception tactics. I'm afraid

It will be discovered by him."

"What Miss Zhou said is not unreasonable." Zhao Yun nodded.

"Fake defeat is a good strategy, but it's a bit too obvious to fake defeat in the first battle when we just arrived." Su Yuan said, "But this strategy can be kept for now. If we don't attack the city smoothly, we can use it last."

"What my lord said is absolutely true."

At this time, Zhou Shu suddenly thought of something: "I remembered something."

"What's the matter?"

"When I was still in the palace, I heard that the Bei'an Army fought against the Bei Army. Both sides cursed each other. The Bei'an Army also cursed... Emperor Qingxiang. Is that right?"

"I scolded him," Su Yuan admitted.

At that time, the Northern Army sent people to scold him first, and Su Yuan asked the soldiers to scold him back. Finally, Li Shengtian was forced to move his camp and retreat several miles.

Zhou Shu recalled: "I heard the young eunuchs gossiping that Emperor Qingxiang was so angry that he couldn't sleep well for several days after he found out about it."

After she said this, Su Yuan already understood what she meant.

"Zhou Shu, are you saying that you can make the enemy take the initiative through a scolding battle?"

"...Maybe." Zhou Shu couldn't be sure, but she said with confidence to Su Yuan, "What I am sure of is that my father has a very bad temper. If a minister in the court contradicts him, he will be very angry.

God, I will definitely find a reason to get back in the future."
