Chapter 203: Angel
The Han army is here, and Han general Fan Kuai personally led the army and has already broken through Hangu Pass. The news was brought by a soldier who escaped from Hangu Pass while the chaos was in trouble. This is undoubtedly the worst news, which is destined to shake the entire Liang Kingdom and even the world. The atmosphere in the camp also became silent and a little depressed...
Everyone felt pressured. Fan Kuai, the supreme power of martial arts and magical powers in Han Dynasty, was second only to Zhang Liang, Han Xin, and Xiao He. To be honest, even Chen Yan's peak period was not necessarily a match for Fan Kuai. The most important thing is that Fan Kuai is only a hundred years old now. For the powerful martial arts and magical powers, at the peak of integrity, Yang Feng and others looked at Ning Caichen, because in the audience, the only one who could resist Fan Kuai was to say...
However, everyone was a little confused. Even though Ning Caichen's combat power was already comparable to that level, he was not a person at that level after all, and whether he could withstand Fan Kuai was worried.
"What do you think?" Ning Caichen looked down at Yang Feng, Huang Zheng and others who bought you: "Now the Han army is coming in full force. It has already broken through Hangu Pass a few days ago. In a few days, we should be in Liangzhou City..."
Ning Caichen spoke, and marched from Liangzhou City on Hangu Pass Road for about ten days. Over the past period of time, they marched into Dongyan County, with Yang Feng and Zhang Baiqi as the vanguard. There was almost no war wherever they passed. The Yellow Turban Army surrendered. He thought he was fast enough, and he wanted to recover the entire Dongyan County as soon as possible and then prepare to deal with the Han army that might have arrived. He did not expect that the Han army's actions were quick and had already broken through Hangu Pass. It can be guessed that the Han State had received the news when the Yellow Turban Rebellion and began to prepare to attack Liang State...
"According to the intelligence, the Han army has more than 200,000, while our army has only more than 100,000, and Fan Kuai is also led by Fan Kuai. If we fight head-on, our army may not be able to catch up." Yang Feng said, saying a little tactful, but the meaning is that it is hard for them to beat the Han army. Not only in the army, but especially in the top combat power, whether Ning Caichen can resist or even defeat Fan Kuai is the key factor that determines the upcoming war. If Ning Caichen can defeat Fan Kuai, then he will naturally win, otherwise he will definitely lose...
To put it bluntly, it means that there is no confidence in Ning Caichen, but it is no wonder. After all, Ning Caichen has not yet broken through to that realm and always lacks the trace of conviction.
"It is not my style of being afraid before fighting. This battle is either not the way I, Ning Caichen. If you don't fight, you will win if you fight!"
Ning Caichen spoke with bright eyes, with a kind of confidence and a kind of style, which shocked everyone present. Most of the generals were arrogant and arrogant, and they all had their own blood and arrogance. Seeing Ning Caichen's appearance, they couldn't help but be infected by Ning Caichen's confidence and had a kind of heroic spirit...
"We will follow the coach to the death!"
Yang Feng and the others stood up, clasped their fists and said, with a firm look on their faces and a sense of firmness.
"Lord, there is a trick in the palace that can deal with the 200,000 troops of the Han army."
At this time, Chen Gong spoke, attracting everyone's eyes.
"According to the news, the Han army will break through Hangu Pass five days ago, and it will take about five days to arrive in Liangzhou City. If you arrive in Luoshui City, it will be eight days earlier and ten days later. Our gate is now in Guobei County, so we will be at full speed and head to Luoshui City for two and a half days..."
Chen Gong spoke, everyone was looking at him, waiting for Chen Gong's following.
"As far as the palace knows, there is a dam on the Luoshui River, twenty miles away from Luoshui City, which is built into Luoshui Lake. It was built during the Qin Dynasty to store water and prevent floods. It has not been opened for many years..."
"hiss--"
After Chen Gong's words fell, Yang Feng and others who were present took a breath of air. They already understood what Chen Gong meant, which was to dig the embankment and release water to deal with the Han army. However, the embankment in the upper reaches of the Luoshui River has existed for many years, and the water storage depth has become a large lake, covering a radius of dozens of miles, and the deepest water level can reach several miles. If this is really put down, let alone Luoshui City, most of the hundreds of miles below Luoshui City will be affected, and may directly affect Liangzhou City...
poison!
This moment of thought came to everyone's minds, and they looked at Chen Gong, and their faces changed a little. If they really did this, it would be enough to deal with the 200,000 Han troops, but as they went on, countless civilians of the Liang Kingdom would probably be affected. At that time, countless creatures were definitely affected...
"Master, I don't agree. Mr. Chen's actions are to the death of countless people from Liang State."
Huang Zheng was the first to stand up to refute, but Chen Gong's face remained unchanged and continued to say-
"If we do this in normal times, without any warning, this will naturally cause countless people in Liang State to be robbed. However, now the Han army is attacking, countless people in Pingming are fleeing north, and during this period, they have experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion. According to the information obtained from the palace, there is no people in the road from Liangzhou to Luoshui City, and now we have enough time. We should go to Luoshui City as fast as possible and evacuate people along the road, which can minimize casualties."
"No, if you are a general, you have taken it as your mission to protect your country and protect our people in Liang State. What is the difference between us doing this and killing our people in Liang State with your own hands..."
Huang Zheng refuted again, disagreeing with Chen Gong's approach, because he knew that no matter how much he evacuated, it would be impossible to evacuate everyone, and there would always be someone to stay. At that time, once the embankment was opened, the water from the entire Luoshui Lake would rush down, which would definitely be a disaster.
"I agree with Mr. Chen's approach." Just when Huang Zheng and Chen Gong were in a stalemate, Yang Feng stood up: "Now that the Han army is about to be in sight, if we cannot repel the Han army, our entire Liang Kingdom will be trapped in the war. This is an extraordinary period, and extraordinary means should be used."
"The last general also agrees with Mr. Chen's approach, and should use extraordinary means at extraordinary times."
This time it was Xue Gui who stood up.
"The last one will discuss it." "Although Mr. Chen's plan is a bit extreme and will hurt the world, it should be a good idea for the moment."
In the end, Zuo Xia, Zhang Baiqi and other military generals present also stood up and supported Chen Gong's speech.
"You...you..."
Huang Zheng pointed at Chen Gong, Xue Gui and others angrily, unable to speak.
"Report—" At this moment, a somewhat elongated voice outside the door, and then a soldier opened the tent and walked in, knelt on one knee, saluted Ning Caichen and said, "Report to General, the court's angels' way."
The angel that was the visitor from the court, such as the imperial envoy. Ning Caichen and others were stunned. Then they saw the tent being lifted up. They saw a man dressed in black robe. He was obviously a man, but he looked fair and fair. Every move was a little slim. He walked in with two soldiers.
"Ning Caichen received the order."
"The last one will be there."
Ning Caichen was stunned, then stood up, bowed, and bowed to the other party. Yang Feng and others, who were narrator, also got up to make a bow letter. They usually had to kneel down when they received the order, but Ning Caichen had no intention of this. The father-in-law seemed to care. He just glanced at Ning Caichen and said-
"In accordance with the heavens, the king issued an edict saying that Ning Caichen, the commander of the cavalry, killed Zhang Jiao and Zhang Bao, and made great contributions to quelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion. He was specially appointed as the General of the Southern Expedition and set off immediately to quell the rebellion and recover Dongyan County. He was awarded this."
"The last general is to thank Your Majesty." Ning Caichen said.
"General Ning, congratulations."
The father-in-law handed the imperial edict to Ning Caichen and said with a smile.
"It's a good father-in-law." Ning Caichen smiled and took the imperial edict, but there was an extra piece of thing in his hand, which was a good piece of jade, and handed it to the other party from the eunuch's hand.
The eunuch got the thing and secretly looked at it. It was a piece of good jade, worth at least 100 gold, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Oh, General Ning is so angry."
"Where is your Majesty, you still need a lot of good words." Ning Caichen smiled. The King of Hell is easy to mess with, and the little ghost is difficult to deal with. He can pay money to settle it. He doesn't mind having more to have a relationship with these people.
"What is General Ning talking about? You are now a great hero of Liang State. Your Majesty loves the general very much," the eunuch didn't look at him, and then whispered: "By the way, Your Majesty asked me to bring a message to the general. General Chen's death will be kept secret for the time being."
"Keep confidential." Ning Caichen's face froze slightly, and then said, "Your Majesty, beware of the news received by the Han Kingdom..."
"General Ning is indeed extremely smart." Hearing Ning Caichen's words, a trace of admiration flashed in the eyes of the strong man. As soon as he said that Ning Caichen immediately thought of the problem. Such thinking made him sigh, but then he found something wrong and found that Ning Caichen's face was a little strange and his eyes were also a little strange.
Soon, he discovered that it was not only Ning Caichen, but everyone else present looked at him with a strange look.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with General Ning?" The eunuch looked at Ning Caichen.
"To be honest, I'm afraid that the news of General Chen's death may not need to be concealed." Ning Caichen grinned and said, "Just just got the news that Fan Kuai, the Han Kingdom, had led a large army to break through Hangu Pass a few days ago!"
"Ah! The Han army broke through Hangu Pass..."
At this moment, the eunuch exclaimed and stood there.
"I'm sorry to bring this news to the king." Ning Caichen said again: "Caichen will lead his army to resist the Han army tomorrow."
"Okay! OK!...Don't worry, General Ning, I will definitely bring the news to..."
Finally, the eunuch went out, but seemed to be scared by the news that the Han army had broken through Hangu Pass. When he went out, he was unstable and almost fell to the ground, which was so embarrassed.
"Look at his bear." Xue Gui looked at the father-in-law's back as he left and hummed disdainfully.
"Congratulations to the coach."
Then, everyone congratulated Ning Caichen again, their eyes were hot, and they were named as generals. None of them were the dreams of soldiers. In short, Ning Caichen had only been in the army for almost a month, but now he has become a general. If he says it, no one will believe it.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, it is the most urgent thing to welcome the next battle now, Yang Feng, Zuo Xia, Zhang Baiqi, and Huang Zheng."
"The last one will be there."
"I appoint you four as vanguards and set out to Luoshui City to inquire about the news about the Han army, evacuate the crowd, remember not to alert the Han army."
"promise."
The four of them received the order, Huang Zheng's face changed and he finally walked out.
"On Gongtai, on Luoshui Lake, when the Han army arrives, I will see the water from Luoshui Lake flooding the entire Han army camp."
"promise."
"Xue Gui, you will lead the army tomorrow, I will go to Lanruo Temple."
"promise."
Xue Gui responded, but he was confused in his heart, what Ning Caichen mentioned about Lanruo Temple.
