Li Chu, the Qingzhou Mu, dressed in a purple cloud-inlaid official robe, sat in front of the table, frowned, and tapped his fingers on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.
A middle-aged general wearing armor sat down below, looking at the sitting and silent Zhou Mu, his face a little unnatural. He seemed to know why he was worried, but he couldn't ask.
"General Wu, the war is in a stalemate. I shouldn't have called you as the head coach back at this time, but I was helpless. I believe you know the reason. The war has been going on for nearly a month, but it still doesn't matter. I don't say that the army is fighting.
He consumed countless money and food, but the court has put pressure on me in this stalemate situation. If something goes wrong, you and I can't afford it." Li Chu sighed, rubbed his forehead, and said with a little distress.
After hearing this, the general below looked ugly in an instant. When the Korqin army attacked, he led the army with confidence, but the war lasted for nearly a month, but the war never made any progress. His face was naturally lost and he sighed: "
Alas, I underestimated the enemy. This time the barbarian army invaded 80,000 people. Although the troops were about the same as my, the northern barbarians had more cavalry and the proportion of cavalry was far greater than that of our army. The battlefield was also on the plains, which was very beneficial to them.
We are at a disadvantage.”
"General Wu has led his troops for many years, and has countless wars of all sizes and great reputations. Could it be that those barbarians can also send a general who can confront the general?"
The general's face became increasingly ugly and said powerlessly: "This is also a bit strange to me. This time the barbarian army attacked, I saw that their camp was neat and the defense measures were closely linked, not like the mess before.
I think the generals who lead the army are also a man who understands military affairs."
"I heard that the barbarian army has added 50,000 troops. How should the general deal with it?"
The general couldn't speak after hearing this, and lowered his head and said nothing. When Li Chu looked like him, he shook his head and sighed.
"Report to Master! There is a man holding a manifesto in his mansion looking for a strategy to defeat the enemy, saying that he would meet him!" A guard ran to the main hall and reported.
"Oh? Let him come in." The governor's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said.
The general was also stunned and raised his head with interest, wanting to see who was sacred.
After a while, the guard walked in with a young man in a green robe. This man was Su Yan who arrived in Qingzhou.
Su Yan bowed to the governor and said, "See Lord Zhou Mu!"
Li Chu looked at the young man in front of him. Although he was a little different from ordinary people's temperament, he was too young. His face, which was a little excited, retreated. He was slightly disappointed and asked, "No gift, you can break the outside of Qingzhou City."
enemy?"
Su Yan stood up and chuckled, "My father is a general, so I also know some military tactics that may be able to break the enemy outside the city." Su Yan knew that he had no qualifications and could not gain the trust of the governor by himself.
He handed over the army to himself, so he pulled Su Zhengtian out.
"Oh? I wonder who Ling Zun is?" The general asked curiously after hearing Su Yan's words.
Su Yan turned sideways and bowed to the general, saying, "In the summer of Su Yan, the Su family in Youzhou City, and his father Su Zhengtian."
"Is your father Su Zhengtian?" The general obviously knew Su Zhengtian, and suddenly became interested and asked.
"Yes!" Su Yan replied.
Seeing the general's expression, Li Chu asked a little strangely: "I know the Su family in Youzhou, but who is Su Zhengtian? General Wu knows this person?"
The general smiled and said, "Of course I recognize him, he is also an excellent general. He has made countless military achievements and has been commended by the court. He has led soldiers under my command in his early years. I know his abilities." Then he turned around and looked at Su Yan and asked.
He said: "I know Su Zhengtian's ability, but how do I know what ability you have to defeat the enemy?"
Su Yan smiled and said calmly: "I dare not say that I can definitely defeat the enemy, but the war is now stalemate, and I will not decide the outcome for a while. Why do I give it a try? It's also a dead horse.
I'm sorry."
After hearing Su Yan's words, Li Chu began to ponder, tapped the table with his fingers, and then said for a long time: "How much chance do you have to win?"
"When I came, I briefly inquired about the situation of the battle and the situation of the enemy and us, and I was 50% sure. However, if I were asked to go to the battlefield to check the situation of the enemy in person, I believe it would be higher." Su Yan replied.
"This matter is important. You go back first. I want to discuss with General Wu. You come to the mansion to see me tomorrow and I will give you a reply." Li Chu said softly.
Su Yan responded, glanced at the general, and then went out with the guards.
When he was about to leave the government office, Su Yan looked back and asked the guard next to him: "I dare to ask brother, who is the general inside?"
"Of course it's General Wu Meng." The guard said in a tone of awe.
Su Yan nodded thoughtfully and stopped talking.
...
"General Wu, what do you think about this?" Li Chu asked Wu Meng when he saw that Su Yan had left.
Wu Meng thought for a while and replied, "Looking at Su Yan's words and deeds, he doesn't look like a man without any worries. Besides, he was born in the Su family in Youzhou, and the Su family regarded himself as a general, and his father was also a good person.
I can try it when I look to the general.”
"Military affairs are the top priority. I am afraid of misleading things to such a young man so recklessly." Li Chu shook his head in distress and said.
"It's okay. If he was really a mess, I would definitely stop him. With me there, there would be no big problem. Besides, I can't find a way to break the deadlock now, so it's better to let him go.
Try it, maybe it will have miraculous results.”
Li Chu raised his head in pain, looked at the ceiling, and kept massaged his temples with his hands to relieve the sorrow in his heart. After a long time, he sat up again, looked at Wu Meng, and said weakly: "Okay,
Let him try it. Without further ado, don't wait for tomorrow. You can go and announce him over."
...
After a while, Su Yan walked in again, and after saluting, he stood aside, waiting for Li Chu to speak.
"You said you can defeat the enemy. Now I will allow you to go to the front line to check it out. A day later, I will reply to General Wu. If it doesn't work, I will leave by myself. I will not punish you. If it says you can defeat the enemy, but you will be defeated in the end, I will be defeated.
You will be punished, have you heard it?" Li Chu said sternly.
Su Yan bowed and said, "Abide by the orders of the Lord."
"Go, you can follow General Wu to the front line now." Li Chu waved his hand and asked them to leave.
Wu Meng bowed to him and took Su Yan out of the main hall. Then he directly ordered the guards to give Su Yan a horse, took the guards and ran straight out of the city and rushed to the camp.
