Chapter 75 The Opponent (4)

With a bang, Li Maozhen slapped the battle report on the desk. Because he did not control his strength, the entire desk was shattered into powder. "This bitch Zhao Nianci...is a bitch!"

Li Ye waved his sleeves and swept away the dust that pounced in front of him, "King Qi, you've slapped it before you read the battle report."

"What's good about it!" Li Maozhen glared at Li Ye angrily, "Zhao Nianci was attacked by the Wu army navy in Sishui. Tens of thousands of soldiers either died or surrendered, which was enough to supply the food, fodder and supplies of the 300,000 army either fed fish or became the capture of the Wu army. What's good about it!"

Li Ye exclaimed, "General Zhao actually suffered such a big defeat?"

Li Maozhen snorted coldly, "If this is the case, then that would be fine! What's hateful is that after Zhao Nianci defeated Sishui, nearly 200,000 troops had already entered Xiaoxian City. He was already fed and fodder. After hearing the news, he was even more panicked and had to retreat in a hurry, but he was pursued by the Wu army in Xiaoxian, with countless casualties!"

Li Ye widened his eyes in shock, "Wouldn't that mean that our army was completely defeated in the battle of attacking Xiaoxian? But how could the 200,000 army escape back more than 100,000, right? When the Wu army retreated from Dangshan, its vitality was not seriously injured..."

"Shut up!" Li Maozhen saw Li Ye "ignorant" sprinkling salt on the wound, and was so angry that she wanted to swallow him in one bite.

There was no one else in the room, and she didn't care about her words, "After Sun Ru defeated Zhao Nianci, she raided overnight and took up Dangshan, which had little troops and was completely unprepared! The defeated Hezhong Army in Xiaoxian County wanted to escape back to Dangshan to rest, but suffered a head-on attack..."

Speaking of this, Li Maozhen couldn't continue to say anything, and was so angry that her face turned red and her chest was fluttering violently while sitting there.

Li Ye suddenly realized, "In other words, the more than 200,000 vanguard troops led by Zhao Nianci were either dead or surrendered, and they were all explained. Not only that, Dangshan County was also occupied by the Wu army for the second time, which was considered to be no result of any battle... This is an unprecedented defeat!"

Li Ye looked at Li Maozhen tentatively, and said "fear" and "worry": "Hezhong Army is an elite force under King Qi's command. Now it's been completely damaged. King Qi is afraid he feels very distressed, right?"

"Li Cong...Li Ye!" Li Maozhen's eyes were about to fly out and hit Li Ye's face, gritting her teeth, "Will you die if you don't speak?"

Li Ye shrugged, looking worried and innocent.

Li Maozhen lowered his head and fell into a struggle of self-entanglement.

......

"Report! Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Cui Keli, and Zhao Bingkun are asking for a meeting!"

"Let them come in."

Cui Keli, who entered the door, looked expressionless, looked at her nose and heart, and knew nothing, and had no emotional fluctuations in her heart. Zhao Bingkun's face turned gray, as if he felt a little ashamed of himself.

Zhao Nianci just came back... She escaped alone, and is now apologizing for guilt outside.

Therefore, Cui Keli and Zhao Bing already knew about the defeat in Dangshan, which is also the reason why their expressions are different.

"Your Highness, King Qi, I will be punished for thousands of deaths..." Zhao Bingkun bowed to the face, "Zhao Nianci was unfavorable in the battle, and the generals were damaged. If King Qi had high hopes, please ask King Qi to order his head to pay tribute to the spirits of the soldiers in heaven..."

As he said that, Zhao Bingkun cried bitterly.

Li Ye glanced at him, his face full of sympathy, but there was a burst of secret joy inside.

Then he exchanged glances with Tricky, and both saw each other's hidden pride, and at the same time they developed a relaxed mentality of watching the show. In this battle, the army had not been defeated. Zhao Nianci lost 200,000 troops this time. How would Li Maozhen end?

Li Maozhen looked gloomy: "During the Battle of Ruzhou, our army surrounded the Shu army, and within ten days, its 500,000 troops were destroyed. What was it? It was unexpected and caught the enemy in secret and suddenly attacked! But this time, in the battle of Sishui, Zhao Nianci was defeated by Sun Ru in the same way! General Zhao, are you going to anger me to death?!"

Zhao Bingkun lay on the ground and felt Li Maozhen's anger. He was scolded in front of Li Ye and Cui Keli, two outsiders, was so disgraceful.

However, there was a difference between the master and the minister, so he could not say anything, and Zhao Nianci's defeat was indeed too big.

Zhao Bingkun could only say sadly: "This is the last general who has no guidance. Please punish your crime!"

Li Maozhen showed heartbroken and cried, killing Ma Su's expression, "Your daughter defeated the army and insulted the lord, and her crimes are unforgivable. Not killing is not enough to correct the military law and subdue everyone. The person comes, take Zhao Nianci down and behead him in front of the army!"

Zhao Bingkun suddenly looked up, but he didn't expect that Li Maozhen was so decisive.

Li Maozhen looked at Li Ye.

Li Ye looked at Cui Keli, looking like I felt that although I sympathized with you, I didn’t know how to speak for you.

Lee Maozhen looked at Tricky.

Trickli stood with his hands behind his back, looking at his toes, as if he had noticed nothing.

Li Maozhen was angry: You two didn’t plead for Zhao Nianci?

Zhao Bingkun robbed the land with his head: "Your Highness! Zhao Nianci's defeat was because the general of the Mo was not well taught. The general of the Mo was willing to die for her. Please help her!"

Li Maozhen's face was as deep as water.

He said with deep meaning: "The general is the leader of the military strategist. If the general dies, which military strategist will serve me?"

Zhao Bingkun understood Li Maozhen's meaning and immediately said firmly: "If the little girl dies, even if she is alive, she will still be a walking corpse. I am afraid she can no longer serve His Highness!"

Li Maozhen hesitated: "This..."

He looked at Li Ye again and kept signaling: It's time for you to plead for him, speak up!

Li Ye looked at Zhao Bingkun and sighed, turning a deaf ear to Li Maozhen's eyes: It would be better for military strategists to no longer serve Li Maozhen, and it would be easy for him to deal with Li Maozhen in the future. How could he speak for the other party at this time?

I can only pretend to be stupid.

Li Maozhen was so angry that one Buddha left his body and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. He said to Cui Li coldly: "What should I do if I see this?"

Cui Keli looked embarrassed, "How can King Qi deal with his generals? I can't speak nonsense... However, the Wu army is obviously much more difficult to deal with than the Shu army. The situation of the war is so stalemate. If the soldiers of the three armies think that the rewards and punishments in the army are excessive and refuse to serve, then..."

Speaking of this, Trickley didn't say anything more.

Lee Maozhen was almost gone wild by Tricky's words.

Fortunately, Zhao Bingkun was not stupid, so he quickly thought of a way: "The young girl was defeated in Dangshan. This is not only a shame for Your Highness, but also a humiliation for the military. If you cannot wash away such humiliation for the army, the military disciples will no longer be able to gain a foothold in the army! The last general requested to lead the troops to attack Dangshan. If you cannot capture Dangshan, Xiaoxian, and Xuzhou, you will make up for your merits. The last general is willing to come and see you!"

Li Maozhen's eyes lit up: "Be serious? Can the general be willing to issue a military order?"

"I will be willing!"

"Okay, someone is here..."

"Slow down!" Trickley immediately spoke, "This matter must not be done!"

Li Maozhen said strangely: "What's wrong?"

Cui Keli said seriously: "Your Highness had an agreement with King Qi before that if the frontline soldiers were defeated, King An's troops should fight. Now Zhao Nianci is not only defeated, but also loses 200,000 troops. It would be fine if King Qi doesn't punish him, but he actually asked your soldiers to fight. Where is this putting us?!"

Li Maozhen showed a hint of embarrassment, "This...is indeed true. However, if General Zhao does not go out to fight to avenge his shame, Zhao Nianci must be killed. At that time, if there are no military generals in the army, the combat power will be greatly reduced, but if it is not done well, it will fall into chaos. Then the Wu army has the help of the Confucian clan, and it is very difficult to deal with, but I am afraid the situation will be out of control..."

Cui Keli snorted coldly: "Whether Zhao Nianci is killed or not, it is naturally King Qi who has the final say. But from today on the front line of Dangshan, our soldiers can only attack!"

When Li Ye saw this, he also echoed: "Mr. Cui is saying."

In fact, he also knew that it was difficult to kill Zhao Nianci, mainly because Zhao Bingkun was willing to come out and take responsibility. Li Maozhen naturally didn't want to cut off his own wings when he had excuses.

After all, what Li Ye wants is to occupy the territory ahead by his own troops, which is enough to achieve this goal.

Li Maozhen nodded: "Since that's the case, then do this. As for Zhao Nianci..."

Trickley immediately responded: "If the defeated general is not severely punished, the three armies will not accept it!"

Zhao Bingkun immediately glared at him.

Trekli glared back without fear and said, "What are you looking at? I just want to disgust you and let all the soldiers of the vassal states know that the generals of King Qi's army are incompetent, and they have to rely on our An Wang army to meet a strong enemy. What can you do to me?"

Li Maozhen pondered for a moment and said, "Zhao Nianci lost his troops and generals, and his crimes were unforgivable. King Nian'an pleaded for him and spared her death for the time being, so that she would......"

Li Ye suddenly felt unhappy: When did I ever ask for love for her?

But he could not refute Li Maozhen's words, after all, this was something that he wanted to tell the people below, and he also needed to maintain the alliance between the two armies.

Cui Keli quickly took over Li Maozhen's words: "Can Zhao Nianci be the front pawn, obey the commander, and follow the army to go to war!"

Li Maozhen and Zhao Bingkun looked at Cui Keli together, each with resentment more and more.

Letting Zhao Nianci be a pawn would not only be a great insult to Zhao Nianci and the military strategists, but also a clear warning to the soldiers of the three armies: what kind of military strategists and King Qi's arm, they could only be a pawn when they came to the front of the An Wang army.

Once King An defeated the Wu army in this battle, as long as King An is still there, Li Maozhen would have a little dream to have prestige in front of various vassal states.

Facing the eyes of the two, Cui Keli looked righteous: "Zhao Nianci must be punished for his crimes. Besides, she has fought in Dangshan and Xiaoxian, and is familiar with the local and Wu army generals. This is a chance to make up for her. Could it be that King Qi really wants to kill her?"

Li Maozhen felt as disgusting as if she had eaten a fly. Even though she was angry, she could only pinch her nose and approve of Tricky's proposal.

After Li Maozhen was silent for a while, he asked hard: "Who is the right person to attack Dangshan?"

Li Ye and Cui Keli have the best choice in their hearts.
