Datang: Abducting the eldest princess at the beginning

Chapter 76 76. As expected, it is better to be a rich girl.

What Murong Zun likes most is talents. With such talents, how could he not like them?
  He also hated, hated why Jiang Chen was not from Tuyuhun, hated why Jiang Chen was not his subordinate!

To be honest, Jiang Chen was very grateful to this enemy whom he had been in contact with but had never met or even spoken to.

It was the arrival of Murong Zun, who gave Jiang Chen three consecutive victories, that made the people of Shanzhou look at the lazy Jiang Chen with admiration and admiration.

The governor of Shanzhou, Jiang Chen, can be said to have been promoted by Murong Zun.

Now, Murong Zun hates Jiang Chen so much that he wants to cut him into pieces!
  It's just that Jiang Chen is too ruthless and doesn't want to repay the kindness of the three great achievements. Instead, he uses a humiliating method to respond to his recruitment.

"I guess Jiang Chen is also sleeping on the tower!"

As he spoke, he seemed to have seen the scene where countless Tuyuhun warriors were killed during his previous three attacks.

"Step back five hundred steps and pitch your tent An Yin."

"We have been traveling for a day and everyone is tired. Let the soldiers take turns to rest."

"Tomorrow, we will send another envoy to recruit Mr. Jiang."

Zaxiba scratched his head, completely confused as to what the prince meant.

What is he afraid of?

How valuable is Jiang Chen that he would have to try to recruit someone after being slapped in the face?
  Zaxiba said in surprise: "He tattooed the envoy's face before, which is already disrespectful to you."

"Why did Your Highness make the same mistake again?"

Murong Zun looked in the direction of the city wall, smiled slightly, and said:

"In the Central Plains, there is a saying: visit the thatched cottage three times!"

"Hundreds of years ago, the Shu Han Dynasty produced a talented Zhuge Kongming. Liu Bei tried to invite him three times, but failed twice. Only the third time did he finally invite Prime Minister Zhuge to come out."

Zaxiba's eyes widened: "This man is only twenty years old, how can he compare with Prime Minister Zhuge?"

"It can't be compared, he's even worse."

Murong Zun shook his head.

"In other words, he only has two chances."

"Tomorrow, we will send people there. If he refuses, we will raze the entire Shanzhou to the ground."

Ah!
  "I didn't have many troops at that time, but this time, I have 200,000 troops, enough to form another Weishui Alliance."

Having said this, Murong Zun smiled slightly and said,
  "There is a saying in the Central Plains that if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger of a hundred battles!"

"The envoy will be dispatched tomorrow. Recruitment is only one of them. The main purpose is to find out the opponent's reality."

"Speaking of which, I only played three games with him, but I didn't meet him or say a word. I don't know how much he weighs."

After receiving Murong Zun's reply, Zaxiba nodded with satisfaction.

Their prince is indeed unparalleled in wisdom.

The last time the envoy went to recruit soldiers, the army had not arrived yet. Soldiers were everywhere in the city, and it was impossible to calculate how many there were.

This time, as soon as the envoy enters the city, he will see an army in full formation.

In this way, the number of troops in the city can be seen clearly.

Murong Zun glanced at the battlefield outside Shanzhou City.

The battlefield is as long as the wall between the two mountains is.

Murong Zun didn't expect to recruit Jiang Chen, he mainly wanted to test the other party's true intentions.

"Jiang Chen, you'd better submit to me obediently."

"I don't have enough troops. Maybe you can still deal with the little tricks you used before."

"But now my army is two hundred thousand strong."

"This is not a Jianmen Pass where only one man is in charge, but a Niangzi Pass!"

"Such an open battlefield!"

"In such an unobstructed battlefield, in this large-scale siege, if you don't have enough troops, any of your strategies will be in vain."

After saying that, Murong Zun turned around and returned to the camp, preparing to rest.

Early the next morning, the defenders who heard the order "Sleep well" had a look of horror on their faces, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. "Fortunately, they didn't attack!"

"We actually fell asleep?"

"Master Jiang really dares to let us sleep?"

Commander Ximen and former commander of the Duzhou Army Geng Gong said: "Everyone has a good rest. Are you feeling well?"

"After a few days of hard work, I feel much better now."

Geng Gong smiled lightly and said, "That's good."

"It's because Mr. Jiang's reputation is still there that we can sleep peacefully."

"Okay, go and tell Mr. Jiang that the enemy troops are already arriving."

"As Mr. Jiang said, the enemy did not dare to attack the city because we were sleeping."

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

This matter quickly reached the headquarters.

Li Shimin was startled and quickly ran to Jiang Chen's bedroom, only to see that he was still covered with a quilt.

"This kid is so heartless. How can he sleep like this?"

"Fortunately, I won the bet this time."

Jiang Chen stretched lazily and said:
  "War is like a game. Although he and I are strangers, I do know him well enough. He must have thought we were pretending to sleep."

"He must have thought we had a trap waiting for him."

In fact!
  He has missed the best opportunity to attack the city! "

"Master Jiang, you are gambling. Do you think this is a game of chess?..."

"You are irresponsible to your subordinates by doing this. You should reflect on it. You are too confident!"

When Li Shimin heard Jiang Chen say that military affairs are just games, he immediately became possessed by Wei Zheng.

Jiang Chen sat by the bed, glanced at several staff officers, then at Li Lizhi, and then at everyone.

He even began to wonder why such a person should be appointed as chief of staff!

It's early in the morning and you're the only one here yelling and troubling me.

An uncle is an uncle, this is the gap, this is the generation gap.

"But I was right in my bet!" Jiang Chen frowned and said straightforwardly.

"This is how I fight. There is no bottom line and no principles."

"I don't care what the means are! As long as the goal can be achieved."

"If you come back and throw cold water on me next morning, take off your helmet and go home!"

"you……"

Li Lizhi quickly stopped Li Shimin and advised:
  "Dad, didn't you say that no matter whether it is a black cat or a white cat, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat."

Li Shimin rolled his eyes. He could not refute Li Lizhi, nor could he refute his daughter.

Always use the words he said in court to appease him.

Li Lizhi walked to Jiang Chen and said softly:

"You too, my father is a veteran, his ideas are different from ours!"

"If you have something to say, please say it!"

Jiang Chen put on his shoes while listening, with a faint smile on his face.

Sure enough, it is better to be a rich girl, gentle and virtuous, beautiful and smart.

Yeah, but let’s discuss the smartness aspect.

But his shoehorn-faced father is really annoying to the extreme.
