Li Chengzhi’s Chinese army tent was filled with tall butter candles, which were as bright as day.
Li Yun was sitting in the hall, his eyes were bright and shining.
If you only look at these eyes, no one will believe that he is already an old man with gray hair on his temples...
Li Yun looked at Li Chengzhi, who was standing in the hall, and sighed secretly.
Before entering the account, he met with Li Zun in private. In a few words, Li Zun roughly told him how Li Chengzhi came to talk to him.
I really didn’t expect that Li Chengzhi could guess his intentions just from one sentence in the order letter?
Yang Shu really didn’t praise him in vain...
There were only two people in the tent, Li Yun and Li Chengzhi, and the tent door was wide open, but Li Yun's personal guards surrounded the tent.
Being blocked by the personal guards, Yang Shu and Zhang Jingzhi could only hear the voices of the two talking.
As for Hu Baozong... As soon as Li Yungang entered the camp, he quietly hid in the back, not even daring to approach the tent door...
When Li Yun supervised the affairs of Jingzhou, even the governor Hu Shichang had to be controlled by him, let alone Hu Baozong, who was just a county lieutenant?
Even if it's not easy to kill him directly, Li Yun can find any reason to whip Hu Baozong and don't take it easy...
It was actually Li Chengzhi's idea to block the tent door. He didn't want someone to spy on him when he was talking to Li Yun: He's not an actor, and his angry, sad and indignant tone and tone are easy to disguise, but what about his expression?
Maybe it will show its flaws.
And the benefits are not limited to this, it can also avoid suspicion... Li Yun also thought this was a good idea and smiled appreciatively, but his tone was indescribably stiff:
"Li Chengzhi, how about the heavy cavalry in white armor?"
Li Chengzhi: "Three hundred!"
Li Yun: "How many soldiers are there?"
Li Chengzhi: "There is only one brigade...and there are 5,000 wooden armored soldiers and 4,000 civilians..."
Yang Shu pricked up his ears with a strange look on his face: Li Chengzhi’s calculation was really good, it was just ten thousand...
He and Zhang Jingzhi really didn't know how many cavalry and armored soldiers there were, but they guessed that there should be one or two thousand. It wouldn't be wrong for Li Chengzhi to only report seven or eight hundred...
The problem is, Li Yun has to be fooled.
Of the 10,000 white-armored troops, half were resting inside the camp and the other half were in formation outside the camp. Li Yun could count seven, seven or eight as long as he went out for a walk...
But the strange thing is that Li Yun stopped asking questions and didn't say that he wanted to find out. He suddenly turned the conversation to suppressing thieves:
"Why the truce?"
"Juniors suspect that the thieves are deceitful!"
"Why wasn't there any deception before? You wiped out tens of thousands of rebels and only two thousand were left, but there was deception? Okay, even if there was deception, are you going to attack or withdraw?"
"Of course it's attack!"
"When to attack?"
"Tomorrow dawns..."
"Since your Baijia battalion cannot fight until tomorrow, let the government army attack first tonight..."
Li Yun's voice was cold and hard, and his questions were quick and urgent. With just a few words, he actually forced Li Chengzhi into a corner.
Yang Shu frowned: No wonder Li Yun heard Li Chengzhi's perfunctory and strong response, but didn't investigate the authenticity, so she was waiting here?
It means that since you won’t tell the truth, then let’s fight before talking.
Once a battle begins, you can tell at a glance whether and how many soldiers are wearing armor.
It is even less likely that Li Chengzhi would give up this battle to the officers and soldiers.
Just because whoever fights the last battle or captures Liu Huiwang in the end, the first credit for pacifying Jingzhou will naturally belong to him. Let alone the credit of the Baijia Battalion, I am afraid that even the hard work will not get even half a cent... p>
As expected, Li Chengzhi responded in a deep voice: "Thank you for your kindness, Commander-in-Chief, the White Armored Army can also fight at night..."
Li Chengzhi really wants to fight at night?
Yang Shu's heart couldn't stop trembling.
Nine times out of ten, both the enemy and us will become a mess. They only know how to kill, but they don’t know whether they are killing enemies or friends... And the more brave the white-armored soldiers are, the more serious the accidental injuries will be...
Besides, are they just a few thousand thieves?
The tens of thousands of mobs surrounding the city were still shouting "rebirth in bliss" from time to time. They were clearly waiting for the White Armored Army to enter the urn and then fight with all their might.
And there are tens of thousands of people!
With Li Chengzhi's temperament of cherishing soldiers as much as his own life, if he suffered too many losses, he would probably go crazy...
The two of them were surprised and suspicious, worried that Li Chengzhi would fall out over this, when they suddenly heard a loud "dong" sound inside the tent.
Yang Shu and Zhang Jingzhi were startled, thinking that Li Chengzhi had taken action, so they leaned forward and looked inside.
It turned out that Li Chengzhi was kneeling on the ground and giving Li Yun a military salute: "I obey the Commander-in-Chief's order!"
His voice was hoarse and hoarse, as if he was extremely angry.
Li Chengzhi clasped his fists and stood up abruptly. Like a bull, he knocked Li Yun's bodyguard aside and squeezed out of the way.
Getting closer, Zhang Jingzhi saw tears in his eyes and a tragic face.
The two of them didn't know how to enlighten them for a while.
Everyone had already rushed five or six feet away before Zhang Jingzhi reacted and shouted urgently: "Chengzhi, don't be impulsive..."
He was afraid that Li Chengzhi would become red-blooded and endanger himself.
I only heard a "hmm" sound coming from a distance, but no response.
Yang Shu was filled with anger, his face already full of anger, but he did not dare to question Li Yun.
The harder he hurts Li Yun's face at this time, the more resentful and suspicious he becomes towards Li Chengzhi...
……
When he ran outside the camp, there was no trace of sadness on Li Chengzhi's face?
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, and he was obviously so happy that he was about to laugh.
Who would have thought that the King of Hell, who was originally thought to be urging people to die, would turn into Guanyin to save lives in the blink of an eye?
Seeing him leaving the camp, Li Song quickly came up to him and said in a low voice: "Lang Jun, Li Shi sent two urgent reports. He has already reached the foot of Anwu City, and there is nothing abnormal..."
If the previous certainty was 80%, after adding this sentence, then Li Chengzhi is at least 90% sure: Li Yun is not playing hard to get...
If you don’t leave now, when will you wait?
From time to time, the cry of "rebirth in bliss" would come to my ears, but the cry had already changed. I must have been hoarse for a whole day, right?
I wonder how much strength you still have to fight?
Looking further east, under the nearby city wall, three bonfires about one foot high were burning. Liu Huiwang's only two thousand monk soldiers and tens of thousands of random people were all gathered under the fire, in a circle, on the first floor.
They are packed into one layer, neat and dense, like living targets.
Li Chengzhi estimated that even if auxiliary troops were sent up, it wouldn't be a big problem to defeat these rebels.
Even if the morale of these thieves is high, they are no more than a group of donkeys who have never seen a tiger. They can only kick a few times to bluff, but they don't know that tigers not only have fangs, but also sharp claws...
Li Chengzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice: "Li Song, order Li Liang to activate..."
There was no sound of drums, no whistles, not even torches. Group after group of infantry carried water bags and soil bags on their backs, hunched over and tiptoed, and silently moved toward the enemy camp.
Further back, the front army quietly withdrew the formation wall, and six hundred carriages were waiting in full formation, waiting only for Li Chengzhi's order.
The rear army quickly gathered, and within a few seconds, the hollow gun formation disappeared and was replaced by a three-row vertical formation...
