The Era of Generals

Chapter 457: ??????bad news

Ouyang rigorously chooses this kind of passive response method, of course, part of the reason is that he does not want to lose his troops without reason, and more importantly, he knows that he is not the protagonist at this moment, and there is no need to sell his life.

In this matter, he only needs to send troops, but he does not need to contribute.

Now in this situation, the person who most wants Zheng Yuanyun's life is no longer him, but Chen Ze.

In fact, it was Chen Ze who had been planning behind the scenes that made Zheng Yuanyun fall into this field.

So now, whether to attack or not, how to attack, it is not Ouyang's strict decision, but the cooperation of Chen Ze, and he can work out the most efficient combat plan with the lowest casualties. .

Before that, he certainly didn't need to commit the mistakes Zheng Yuanyun had committed before, and lost a lot of troops in vain.

Rather than what Zheng Yuanyun thought, Ouyang's strict enforcement here is just doing some unnecessary consumption.

The volume of Juhe City is so large, how can it be used up?

You must know that his two million troops stationed outside the city for a day, the cost is no small, compared to the cost, Ouyang's strict performance may not necessarily be able to do Zheng Yuanyun.

Of course, if it was before the province of Nantes was invaded by the enemy, he would certainly not be afraid of being consumed, but at this time most of the cities of the province of Nantes were still behind Juhe City. There are only a few small cities located inland with relatively few materials.

Maybe, if all the cities he has on hand add up, its material reserves are not as large as Juhe City, which has always been a transit station in the province of Nantes.

Ouyang, who knows the province of Nantes better than consumption, naturally does not have this idea.

In fact, don't even look at Ouyang rigorously stationing two million troops under Juhe City, but as long as he discovers something is wrong, he must be the one who withdraws the troops the fastest.

So, just as they were making their own calculations, as the only person who wanted to seriously kill Zheng Yuanyun, Chen Ze finally let Chen Ming send the news back.

"General, that guy is back!"

In Ouyang's strict account, a messenger reported back, and Chen Ming, who had disappeared for a while, suddenly returned.

Regarding this, Ouyang Strictly remained indifferent. Whether Chen Ming responded or not did not have much impact on him. Even when Chen Ming told him to leave, he did not send anyone to follow him, leaving him alone.

After Chuanxin Bing reported the report, Chen Ming immediately entered the account. He looked at Ouyang's actions, clasped his fists, and said, "General Ouyang, I will bring back the latest news from my son!"

Ouyang Strictly nodded his head slightly, and said in no hurry, "Where is Chen Ze?"

He knew that Chen Ze kept seizing the city in the rear to block Zheng Yuanyun's retreat, so he asked.

Chen Ming said, "Everything is under control. Master Chen's troops are using tactics. At present, they have come from Xilong City and have captured three cities along the way!"

"Three?"

Ouyang pondered for a moment, simulated the path of Chen Ze's troops in his mind, nodded and said: "The speed is still good, but what's the use?"

In fact, after he knew that Chen Ze would seize the city from the rear that had been taken by Zheng Yuanyun, he didn't take it seriously.

Zheng Yuanyun is also the current supreme commander of the Qingyang Empire in the province of Nantes, and this has not changed so far.

So what is the use of Chen Ze running to seize the city?

It is nothing more than replacing Zheng Yuanyun's trusted generals with his own confidant.

So even if Zheng Yuanyun's retreat is broken?

You know, soldiers and generals are separated.

Generals have dominance in wartime, but they do not have power over soldiers.

Regardless of the fact that the generals like to fly their own flags during the war, Zhang Jiajun and Li Jiajun, but everyone knows what kind of army you are, after the war, all your troops have to be returned to the empire, and it will always be the Qingyang army.

The soldiers are under the command of the generals, but they are not devoted to the generals, so the most important thing is the rank of the generals.

In particular, Zheng Yuanyun is still the current supreme commander in command. Just imagine, after Zheng Yuanyun broke through and retreat in Juhe City, can Chen Ze really block his retreat?

Use the forces of Anluo Province to block the retreat of the Supreme Commander of Anluo Province?

Isn't there a pit in your mind?

At that time, Zheng Yuanyun only needs to raise his arms, and Chen Ze's army will have to trigger a mutiny on the spot. Whether he can retreat himself or not is still unknown.

This was just Ouyang's analysis based on his own common sense, and even he didn't even know that the 500,000 elite soldiers in Chen Ze's hands were private soldiers trained by Zheng Yuanyun, and his loyalty to Zheng Yuanyun was extremely high.

If he knew this, he would not choose to send troops to chase it out.

Therefore, Ouyang did not feel cold about Chen Ze's plan to capture the rear city. Of course, it was always correct, so he just watched the changes.

At the moment Chen Ming's reply, Ouyang Lixing didn't have any waves in his mind about Chen Ze getting the three cities in the rear, just waiting for Chen Ming's following.

But Chen Ming was not in a hurry. After waiting for a while, after Ouyang sternly digested the news he brought back, he said again: "General Ouyang, my son wants me to bring back a message to you, but..."

Chen Ming hesitated for a moment, his face was ugly and said, "But it's bad news."

"what?"

Ouyang frowned strictly. Under this circumstance, there was bad news?

He couldn't help but his face became serious, and he said solemnly, "What is the bad news?"

Chen Ming sighed and said: "General Ouyang didn't know that Zheng Yuanyun was also a cunning man. My son also learned from Zheng Yuanyun's cronies after he had taken the city. After Longcheng, Zheng Yuanyun had a hunch that General Ouyang would not be able to deal with it. He was not sure to take it in one fell swoop, so at that time, he chose to ask for reinforcements from the rear!"

Ouyang Li Xing was slightly startled when he heard the words, UU read www.uukanshu.com, he looked at Chen Ming, and said, "Didn’t this matter have been known for a long time, and your son has been assuring this general that Zheng Yuan Yun can't wait for a reinforcement, is it possible that he can't hold it back now?"

"No!"

Chen Mingmeng shook his head and said, "The reinforcements in Anluo Province have always been under the control of my son. There is no problem, but the problem lies in..."

"This guy Zheng Yuanyun not only asked for reinforcements from Anluo province, he even gave up a lot of profits, so that the two adjacent provinces of Anluo province also sent a large number of reinforcements, but who is this? I didn't expect it!"

He said urgently.

"Ceding benefits?"

These words also made Ouyang stunned for a moment.

He is accustomed to collecting reports from opponents beforehand. In fact, he has a deep understanding of Zheng Yuanyun's character. Because of this, he is also incredible about Zheng Yuanyun's willingness to cede benefits in exchange for reinforcements.
