Two hundred and sixtieth chapters staring at each other

Night has fallen in Roucheng, but Chen Jingzhi is still on duty on the city wall.

Because the Guangjun army has already arrived at the city.

Chen Jingzhi stood there motionless, from noon to evening, always quietly watching the soldiers and horses of Guangjun camped on the gentle slope in the distance, without any intention of sending troops out of the city.

When night completely enveloped the sky and the earth, and the military camp in Guangjun was lit up with dots of firelight, two groups of people gradually entered the camp from both sides.

The sky was getting darker, and torches began to light up on the city wall, illuminating the other side of the dark moat under the city wall. From time to time, an archer would shoot burning arrows to the other side of the moat to further explore the river bank.

Virtual reality.

Chen Jingzhi just looked at him without saying a word.

It wasn't until a woman wearing a white gauze covering her beautiful face appeared next to him that he turned around and asked, "Miss Qianxue is here. Is there anything unusual about Senior Qi Xingzi?"

The beautiful woman was Qianxue. She looked at the army camp in the distance and shook her head, then asked, "How many enemy troops are there?"

"Just looking at the size of the camp and the number of lights, it must be about 100,000," Chen Jingzhi chuckled. "Just from what I can see, the sum of the previous and following groups of people is only 50,000 or 60,000. Combined with the military affairs department's assessment of the current situation in Guangdong,

Based on the calculation of the situation in various parts of the county, taking into account the inevitable pressure on Guang County's eastern front, the maximum number of elites that Yunbailou can mobilize at this time is about the same. Even if all labor and logistics are included, it will not exceed 80,000."

"Eighty thousand, that's already twice as much as me," Qian Xue said.

"If you want to capture a big city in my county, you will need so many troops," Chen Jingzhi said without humility. "If we also count the number of soldiers I can forcefully recruit in this city, as well as the number of soldiers brought by the long-term tug of war,

Attrition, this force is really not much."

"So we still have to watch the movements of Lutou City and Sichuan City?" Qianxue asked.

"Just look at Sichuan City, there will be no loss in Roucheng, so Lutou City will be fine," Chen Jingzhi said firmly.

"Okay," Qianxue looked to the southeast, "I'm going to Sichuan City."

Chen Jingzhi shook his head, "The prefect wrote to me and asked me to take good care of Miss Qianxue for him."

"What a joke," Qianxue said coldly, raising her chin slightly, "Why have I ever needed anyone to take care of me?"

"I think so too. With the girl's strength, she really doesn't need anyone to take care of her," Chen Jingzhi said, "but Jingzhi really has something to ask the girl for help with."

Qianxue turned to look at Chen Jingzhi, "Do you still want me to catch mice for you in this soft city?"

"Yes," Chen Jingzhi said seriously, "Sichuan City is indeed of great importance, but after all, there are two directions of Chunyang City and Liangcang City to contain it. We can deal with it if it really wants to do something. Moreover, as long as

There is no problem in Roucheng itself. Even if the Sichuan army comes, it won't be much worse than it is now. Jingzhi's only concern..." He turned back to look at the city, "It's Roucheng itself.

.....”

Qianxue frowned and looked back at the big city behind her, then looked at the camp outside the city and asked about unrelated matters, "Is there any news from southern Xinjiang?"

"The Grand Administrator has arrived in Taiming together with Lijun Qingqi. There will be a delay in the delivery of the news. At the same time, there should be some choices in the content of the news relayed by the Military Affairs Office. The battle in southern Xinjiang this spring may not be easy, but

There should be no problem with Tai Ming," Chen Jingzhi said with certainty, "General Lu understands the significance of the Grand Administrator to Li County now, so there will be no problem."

"I hope so. After the incident in Roucheng, I will go south to find him, General Chen. I hope you can be promoted and make a fortune after this battle," Qianxue said and left.

Chen Jingzhi just looked at the camp outside the city and said nothing.

————————————————————————

When Chen Jingzhi was looking at the dark camp outside the city.

In an inconspicuous corner on the edge of the camp outside the city, two people were also looking at Roucheng.

One of them was dressed in snow-white, and he was quite conspicuous even in the dimly lit army camp. It was Yun Bailou. He raised his head slightly with his hands behind his back, looking down at the tall city from a distance, "This Roucheng has never stopped.

You have never rejected me. This is the first time, and it should be the last time." He turned and smiled and looked at a short but strong veteran beside him, "Am I right, Old General Lin?"

The short general had white hair and beard, and his face was full of wrinkles, but his complexion was very good, and he looked energetic, especially his big hands, with bulging veins that showed a strong sense of strength. He should not be dissatisfied with what Yun Bailou said.

Instead, he retorted, "Young master must not underestimate the Roucheng garrison. This time we came here to act like a tired army. When we set up camp, we looked almost undefended. We clearly had the opportunity to take advantage of him, but he failed."

Don't be tempted, otherwise we and the ambushes waiting in ambush will give him a big defeat and demoralize his army. It can be seen that his people are more than calm, and during the day I went around Roucheng to observe their defenses, and a big city was destroyed by them.

The layout is extremely organized, with hidden dangers both near and far, both inside and outside. The strategic points for attacking the city echo each other and are connected in a line. It is really impregnable. Considering that this person is new to Roucheng and can arrange it like this, he must be an experienced member of the army.

There is no doubt that he will be a strong general."

"A strong general is indeed a strong general, but he may not be that mature when he is mature," Yun Bailou said with a smile, "Old General Lin, among the generals guarding him should be the young general Chen Jingzhi who is most valued by the prefect of Li County at the moment."

"Is it him? He actually defended Roucheng himself..." The short old general didn't look too surprised on his face, he just frowned slightly and said, "I'm afraid this battle won't be easy...

..”

"The world has never been without strong generals. Except for the first few battles, every battle thereafter will probably be difficult." Yun Bailou did not talk more about this topic, but asked about other things, "Mr. Lin

The general has not commanded an army for many years, what do you think of this Jincheng army now that he has returned?"

"Not satisfactory," the short old general frowned even deeper when he heard this, "Compared to my old Jincheng Army, today's army has greatly improved both in terms of the number of soldiers and the quality of equipment.

But the combat effectiveness may have declined instead. Even if the core branches of this army are elites who have experienced attacking Hanoi and have battle experience, the killing intent in them is still too shallow. To strengthen the army, we must

It is a rare thing that can only be obtained through repeated training in the war of blood and fire, but now... it is still far away."

"In the eyes of General Lin, does Li County have a strong army?" Yun Bailou asked again.

"Of course there is," the short old general looked in the direction of Roucheng, "Isn't this Chen Jingzhi from Lu Dongfeng's powerful Taiming army? It's just that in order to fight against Guangjun, he recruited in Anling

When new recruits are mixed into the original elite soldiers, the entire strong army cannot be called strong, but is on par with the current Jincheng Army."

"Half a catty is enough," Yun Bailou smiled brightly when he heard this, but there was a cold glint in his eyes when he looked in the direction of Roucheng, "Just now, Old General Lin said that Roucheng is impregnable. That may be true, but I can do it at any time.

It can expose his fatal flaw, but..."

The short old general looked at Yun Bailou in surprise, but didn't ask anything.

"...Just to get them to focus on us first...!!"
