619 To win the state of Chen or win the world?
The generals in the tent were divided into two factions, each with their own arguments, and they could not argue for a while.
After the fourth prince of Yan State Zhao Pu, who firmly sat in the case of commanding the command, only silently paid attention to the dispute below and did not speak.
His face was a little entangled and seemed to be difficult to make a decision.
It is true that the fourth prince of Yan State is naturally not a fool. How could he not see what Zhu Xiuyuan had to do?
Moreover, he may have lost all his money in the end, and he missed the opportunity to break through the capital of Chen State, and did not get the formula for divine thunder.
Retreat troops and not withdrawing troops seem to be a simple order.
However, in the long run, this is the choice between "Getting the Kingdom of Chen" and "Getting the World".
The risk is very great... How to make a decision? Zhao Pu has not made up his mind yet...
As time goes by, the battle situation on the north side of the capital has undergone new changes.
"Qi Zhuo, the Yan army and the rebels crossed the river in a large scale, with a total of about 80,000, claiming to be 100,000. Because the river is unstoppable, 80,000 people have landed on the south bank of the Yangtze River!"
"There are ten thousand soldiers of the Jing camp in the north of the city, who have been waiting by the river. Once the Yan army landed, they fought with the soldiers of the Jing camp in the same place. The battle situation on the south bank of the Yangtze River was extremely fierce!"
In Zhu Xiuyuan's big tent, a scout came to such a message.
"Although ten thousand soldiers in the Beijing camp are brave, they are hard to stop the continuous Yan army and rebels! How about the city defense in the capital?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked.
"Report to the Marquis, Your Majesty has ordered the soldiers of the Divine Lei Army and the Right Guard of the Imperial Land to be stationed on the city wall on the north side of the capital, ready to fight!" The scout replied.
"Where is Zhao Pu? Still nothing happened?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked again.
"Qi Zhu, the fourth prince of Yan State still did not make any noise. He neither ordered the withdrawal of troops nor crossed the river to attack the city with the Yan army in Jiangbei." The scout replied.
"I understand, you go down first!"
Zhu Xiuyuan waved his hand, and when the scout left the tent, Zhu Xiuyuan touched his chin and thought, "If Zhao Pu had decided to attack the capital and then destroy Chen State, then he should have sent troops and crossed the river to the south long ago."
"Since Zhao Pu has not made any moves, it means he is hesitating!"
After understanding this, Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help but relax a little.
Zhu Xiuyuan's delaying strategy, the comparison between "Getting Chen State" and "Getting the World", is like a seed, which has been planted into Zhao Pu's heart.
Zhao Pu is a man with great ambitions. Although he knows that the risk of withdrawing troops is very high and he may not get anything, it is really difficult for him to cross the threshold of "winning the world"!
The temptation of "sweeping all countries, unifying the world, and leaving reputation in history" is really great. Ambitious people like Zhao Pu, who know this is a pit, may jump inside!
Zhao Pu did not move, neither ordering the withdrawal of troops nor sending troops across the river to move south, which shows that Zhu Xiuyuan's delaying strategy worked.
But it's far from enough!
"I see when you can bear it!"
Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly smiled, took a sip of tea, and took out another piece of pastry. This was given by the people in the capital before leaving the city. Although the taste was not very good, it was safe and non-toxic, so please feel free to eat it.
Chen State Palace.
Be cautious in the main hall.
The news of the Yan army and the rebels crossing the river and fighting with the soldiers of the Beijing camp to a regiment came, and the entire hall was filled with sorrow.
Emperor Chen sat on the dragon throne, with a boring body, messy hair, and looked very decadent.
The Concubine You next to her was still very noble and dressed up in great costumes, but her face was pale and she wanted to comfort Emperor Chen, but she still didn't know how to speak.
The ministers below were not concerned about the etiquette of the king and his subjects, and they whispered and discussed it.
There was even that timid man who was so scared that his legs were weak when he heard about the news of Yan Army crossing the river. His limbs were trembling...
"Hey... I, Chen State... Is it true that God is going to destroy my Chen State?" Some minister muttered, his voice was very small, but Emperor Chen above the imperial rank could also hear it, but Emperor Chen did not express anything.
"Your Majesty should keep Jiang Chengwang and not let him leave the city!"
"Yes, now the Yan army in Jiangbei has crossed the river and is about to attack the city gate... It seems that the delaying plan has not worked."
"That divine thunder is indeed powerful, but now... it has been invested in the enemy. If the Yan army has divine thunder..."
"Hey, it's too late to say this now. Once the Yan army breaks through the city wall, the country of Chen will be in danger... Hey!"
The ministers were talking and sighing while talking, and shaking their heads. It was a tragedy between the king and the ministers!
Guabuyan army camp.
The Central Army’s tent.
Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of Yan State, was still struggling, and the generals below were still arguing.
"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, please order the withdrawal of troops quickly. Guazhu is still forty or fifty miles away from the capital. The military order is slightly slower. If it is one step late, once the capital is broken, there will be no divine thunder in this world!" A general shouted in pain.
"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, you must not, never!" Some people also objected, "Aren't there many masters in our camp? Why not send out masters to control the Divine Thunder Marquis, and then attack the city while asking about the Divine Thunder formula. Isn't it beautiful to do this with one stroke?"
After Zhao Pu, who was following the case of the coach, suddenly burst into his eyes when he heard the word "master". He seemed to have remembered something.
Zhao Pu suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Transfer to this prince..."
"Report... to Your Highness the Fourth Prince..." However, a scout suddenly appeared at this time, interrupting Zhao Pu's words.
"Our Jiangbei army, together with the Jiangdu King's army, has killed all the soldiers of the Beijing camp on the north side of the capital. Now our army is attacking the city gate."
"The Chen Kingdom's Shenlei Army is indeed powerful. As soon as the new weapon was released, our Jiangbei army suffered heavy casualties, but the Shenlei Army was finally few. Our Jiangbei army has been divided into three groups and encircled the city walls on the east and west sides of the capital!"
After the scout finished speaking, he looked excited. After all, he was constantly winning.
Now that the capital city of Chen State is about to be destroyed, the Yan army is about to win a great victory. As a soldier of the Yan army, the scout was naturally happy.
However, the scout saw that the Fourth Prince's face changed drastically, and he did not look like he was overjoyed.
"Come here, please send the order of this prince to withdraw your troops immediately. Whether it is our Yan army in Jiangbei or the King of Jiangdu, you will withdraw your troops immediately. Go quickly, and there must be no mistakes!"
Zhao Pu was stern and excited, as if he would lose something great if he was one step late.
"Ah? This..."
The scout was stunned and half-kneeled on the floor, looking at Zhao Pu, but had not reacted for a long time.
"Go quickly, otherwise the military law will serve you!" Zhao Pu was furious, as if this scout was a stumbling block that prevented him from "winning the world".
"Yes, my subordinates obey the order!"
At this moment, the scout did not dare to neglect and immediately went down to pass on Zhao Puxin's order.
The big tent was also quiet. The generals looked at me and I looked at you. Some were happy, while others shook their heads secretly.
However, Zhao Pu's orders were issued, so as generals, it was hard to say anything else.
"Telection, all the masters in the camp are invited. I have something to do, so I need to explain it myself!" Zhao Pu said again.
At the same time, Zhu Xiuyuan was in the "Central Army Treasure".
The Yan army and the rebels in Jiangbei have killed more than 10,000 soldiers in the Jing camp and are attacking the capital, and have also spread here simultaneously.
"The siege has begun!"
Zhu Xiuyuan was shocked and stood up.
He couldn't sit still, and he put his hands behind him, walking around, looking anxious.
