Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 264 The Gap (Two in One)

Liu De led the army to pass directly in front of Yang Zichuan's camp. Yang Zichuan's army just watched with cold eyes and did not come out to stop them. The high-hanging hearts of Liu De's generals were finally relieved.

"The whole army speeds up to pass!" Liu De held up the command flag.

As a vanguard, Gongsun Qi arrived at Dongfu City first, and the defenders of Dongfu City were already in full swing.

The cold arrows pointed at the cavalry led by Gongsun Qi.

Zhou Daguo came to the city on horseback: "A certain is Zhou Daguo, the captain under the command of General Anbei, please open the city gate quickly!"

When the guard learned that Liu De was coming, he didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly went to report to Guo Zidong. After Guan Yu's generals heard the news, they also rushed out of the city to meet him.

"General Liu, after a few months, don't come here without any problems!"

Seeing Liu De, Guo Zidong cupped his hands and laughed.

"I'm sorry for General Lao Guo, everything is well!" Liu De got off his horse and returned the gift.

In the eyes of those who don't know, the two are like close friends, talking happily.

"General Liu, please come to the city to have a talk! I have ordered people to prepare a banquet to welcome General Liu." Guo Zidong stretched out his hand to invite.

"General Lao Guo is here!"

Liu De thanked, and entered the city gate together with everyone.

After receiving the report, Yang Zichuan twitched his beard and said softly, "It seems that Liu De has made a decision. He wants to twist all the combat power into one fist and defeat our army in one fell swoop."

"My lord, what should we do next?" Miao Zhou asked for instructions.

"It's fine if you can't hold on!"

"But..." Miao Zhou thought something was wrong, and wanted to persuade him, but he was afraid of Yang Zichuan's scolding, so he hesitated.

Yang Zichuan is an old man, how can he fail to see Miao Zhou's thoughts, and he was not angry, but said: "Stop talking too much, follow orders!"

"The commander of the last commander!"

Miao Zhou looked at Yang Zichuan who had no expression on his face and cloudy eyes, and felt a trace of fear in his heart. He didn't dare to say more, so he found an excuse and quit the tent.

When he came outside, Miao Zhou shivered when the cold wind blew, and his back was wet with sweat.

Dongfu City Government Office.

Guo Zidong, Liu De and others had already taken their seats, silk and bamboo sounded, singing and dancing began, with a melodious voice and graceful waists, as if the army displayed outside the city no longer existed at all, and the world was peaceful and the singing and dancing were peaceful.

Many people in the seat did not put their minds on singing and dancing, and looked at Guo Zidong in the main seat from time to time, and then at Liu De.

On the contrary, Liu De and Guo Zidong could hold their breaths, one sipping their drinks, the other admiring the graceful waist and flying sleeves in front of them without blinking.

"Clap!"

Guo Zidong clapped his palms twice, the musician heard it, the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, the dancers squatted down one after another, and exited the hall, leaving only the lingering fragrance floating in the air.

All the generals had a look on their faces, knowing that the next step is to discuss the most important matters at present.

Guan Yu and the others also straightened their backs, sat upright in their seats, and all looked at Liu De who had put down his wine cup.

Guo Zidong first said: "Now that the Dongfu and Dongyu armies have joined forces, their strength has greatly increased, but Yang Zichuan has shrunk his troops and can't get out of the stronghold. Jinyang Pass is in a hurry, so this general decided to send 1 troops to support Jinyang Pass. Yangguan, what do you guys have to say?"

"General Guo!"

Liu De turned around and asked, "I don't know if sending 1 troops can defeat the Beiping Army?"

Guo Zidong shook his head: "The Beiping Army has 10 horses, and the leading general is [Uncle Yang] who is very good at attacking the city. At first, I thought that relying on Yan He's ability and Gongyeyang's defensive equipment, at least He has been able to hold on to Jinyang for more than half a year, but he did not expect to be in frequent emergencies in just a few months. According to Yan He's letter, he can only hold on for a month now. The 1 horses are just for Yan He to hold on for a while, for sure It is impossible to defeat the Peking Army."

Guo Zidong sees this very clearly.

Liu De stood up and asked loudly, "General Guo, how many troops do we have? How many troops does Yang Zichuan have?"

"We have nearly 7 soldiers in one place together! And Yang Zichuan still has [-] to [-] troops."

Liu De nodded, and then said: "Deploying 1 horses can neither defeat the Beiping Army, nor can the remaining troops do anything against Yang Zichuan's troops. Fu, he must have premeditated!"

Guo Zidong's expression remained firm: "Then General Liu thinks that we can capture the Yang Zichuan camp within a month? No, it should be said that it only takes half a month. From Dongfu to Jinyang Pass, the fastest it takes for the army to travel is half a month." It's been a month."

"It will take half a month to break through the Yang Zichuan camp!" Liu De clenched his fists, his eyes were firm, and his tone was quite affirmative.

"General Liu, you are still too young and energetic!" Guo Zidong didn't care much about Liu De's words. If it was that simple, Yang Zichuan would not be worthy of serving as the state herdsman for decades in Yanzhou !

"The 1 troops supporting Jinyang Pass can definitely make Yan He last for another one to two months. However, Yang Zichuan's army's morale is low, food and grass are insufficient, and there are many soldiers. I guess he will not be able to last for two months. At that time, Our army can completely defeat Yang Zichuan and turn to support Jinyang Pass. When winter comes, the enemy army can't bear the severe cold and will definitely retreat on its own."

Guo Zidong seemed to be full of confidence and quite proud of his strategy.

"General Guo, there is absolutely no need for Yang Zichuan to shrink his troops. He wants the general to send troops to support Jinyang. This is definitely a conspiracy!" Liu De continued.

If Guo Zidong dispatched 80 troops, it would definitely give Yang Zichuan an opportunity. At first, Liu De suspected that there was a traitor, but when he used special effects to check, there was no one in the hall whose power was Yang Zichuan, although some people were loyal. It's only over [-], but this person's value is not enough to betray.

Or in other words, other low-level generals?

But even if found, what should be said?Guo Zidong will definitely doubt the source of his news. At that time, there will definitely be a gap in the alliance between the two companies, which will be very unfavorable to both parties.

So what to do.
"Haha, General Liu, there are some unfounded worries. The defense of Dongfu City is impregnable. Our soldiers work together. How can Yang Zichuan win Dongfu?" Sure enough, Guo Zidong didn't care about Liu De's advice and laughed loudly.

When Liu De heard this, he was a little stunned. Guo Zidong was fighting for the dominance of the two armies. The two armies were originally an alliance, but Guo Zidong wanted Dongyu to follow his orders. That's why he suggested to Liu De, Only by refusing without mercy can he highlight his own status.

If he agreed to his suggestion, wouldn't it mean that Guo Zidong was incompetent?
In an instant, Liu De's evaluation of Guo Zidong was three points weaker.

It seems that some of the rumors are true, and Guo Zidong's position may not be possible without his wife's advice.

Guo Zidong wants to use Dong Yu, but why isn't Dong Yu using him?

Liu De then stopped talking.

Seeing Liu De's silence, Guo Zidong was secretly pleased, and said, "Since there is no objection, Fifth Leopard, you and your troops will go out of the city tomorrow to support Jinyang Pass."

The fifth leopard came out and said yes.

Guo Zidong clapped his hands with a smile on his face, and the singer and dancer who had been waiting for a long time came to the hall, waving her sleeves and twisting her slender waist, dancing to the music.

Guo Zidong raised his wine cup and said to Liu De: "General Liu, can I have a drink?"

Liu De looked as usual, and raised his wine cup: "Regard General Guo!"

Guo Zidong glanced at the calm Liu De, and secretly made a decision in his heart, but he didn't show it at all. He laughed and said, "General Liu, please!"

When Guo Zidong returned to Guo's mansion, his wife, Mrs. Ma, had been waiting for a long time. Mrs. Ma ordered his servants to prepare a change of clothes and wash utensils for Guo Zidong.

After Guo Zidong changed into his regular clothes, he sat on the chair opposite Guo Zidong and asked, "How is it?"

Guo Zidong told Mrs. Ma what happened in the hall in detail. After listening to Mrs. Ma, he sighed: "Husband, you are in a hurry! What Liu De said has a certain truth, and Yang Zichuan must have a plan!"

If it was a subordinate who refuted him, he would have been reprimanded by Guo Zidong long ago, but this person is his wife. If it weren't for Mrs. Ma, Guo Zidong might have become a dead bone in a random graveyard, so Guo Zidong respected Mrs. Ma.

"Liu De's words are not unreasonable, but they are too dangerous. How can I capture Yang Zichuan's camp in half a month? Forgive me, I can't think of it. Although a certain strategy is dangerous, it is definitely the safest Way, if Yang Zichuan’s camp cannot be captured within half a month, none of us will be able to run away when the Beiping army breaks through Jinyang!”

"Since that's the case, husband should be more careful!" Madam Ma didn't say any more.

"Ma'am, please rest assured!"

"I don't know what my husband thinks of our ally?" Mrs. Ma suddenly asked.

"I don't get rid of this child, I'm not at ease!" Guo Zidong expressed his worries, only in front of Ma Shi, he would say something that is not suitable for outsiders.

"This son's deterrence actually shocked General Guo?" Madam covered his mouth with a handkerchief and teased.

Guo Zidong ignored Mrs. Ma's teasing, but said: "Liu De inherited his ancestor's legacy and defeated the invaders twice. The people of Yanzhou have suffered for a long time. Now Liu De is famous, everyone knows everyone. Admiration, this is what the hearts of the people want; the generals under his command who are good at fighting are unknown, loyal, and the elite soldiers are even more frightening, which is the foundation of his life; there are also several good planners who plan for him. With the hearts of the people, With the army and the talents of the country, how can we not be afraid of them!"

"As for Liu De, this son seems to be ignorant of martial arts, ignorant of political strategy, and ordinary, but his courage is extraordinary, something I have only seen in my life."

"A certain decision, after defeating Yang Zichuan, tried to kill Liu De to prevent future troubles!"

Guo Zidong made a gesture of wiping his neck, which seemed to have made up his mind.

"But now that the two armies are allies, if Liu De is killed, the world will definitely criticize him, and it will be detrimental to my husband's reputation. Moreover, Liu De's strength is not much different from ours, and even the elite soldiers are far better than our army. , accompanied by two guards, then Dian Wei’s martial bravery doesn’t need to be mentioned to you anymore! So how does Xianggong want to kill Liu De?”

At this moment, Mashi showed her ingenuity to the fullest and analyzed the matter thoroughly, not weaker than some top counselors. She deserved to be the woman who helped Guo Zidong sit on the seat of the city lord.

Behind every successful man is a woman who silently supports, this sentence is fully reflected in Guo Zidong!

"If you want to kill Liu De, there are many ways. Using assassins is the lowest method, and the so-called elite soldiers also have ways to deal with them." Guo Zidong has already had a perfect plan.

"Come on, call [Swallow] over here!"

And Liu De is now in a rather huge mansion. This mansion was specially arranged by Guo Zidong for Liu De. It has a complete set of maids and servants.

A housekeeper was even arranged, but Liu De sent it back on the grounds that it was not easy to use, but the other maids and servants Liu De stayed. After all, cleaning the house, cooking and so on needed manpower.

Liu De's daily life is generally entrusted to Dian Wei and Xu Hu, and Liu De is 100% at ease with them.

"My lord, I feel that Guo Zidong is quite insidious, we'd better be careful!" Peng Yue said.

Xu Shu also said: "I have seen some signs of what happened today. I think there is no need to worry too much before defeating Yang Zichuan, but after defeating Yang Zichuan, the Lord should be more careful."

"The Dongfu generals don't have many skills, but their tone is quite loud. If it wasn't for General Guan to stop me, I would have to stab them a few holes!" Zhang Fei was a little annoyed, and there were no outsiders here, so he spoke casually .

Guan Yu stroked his long beard lightly, and said to Liu De: "This general under Guo Zidong's command, [Pan Jinlong], the first of the eight great generals, is nothing more than a ignorant reckless man; the second [Kong Hu] can only be regarded as a fierce general. Dong Zhen was seriously injured and fell into a coma; the third was [Yan He], among the eight people he was superior in resourcefulness, political strategy, and commanding the army, and he was a rare general; the fourth was [Gong Ye] Sheep] is in charge of the Metallurgical Bureau, but I don’t know much about the others;

The fifth defender [Tian Yuan] is quite stable and good at defense, but lacks spirituality; the sixth identity is very well hidden, so far he has not appeared in front of a certain person, and he does not know what he is doing, which is quite mysterious .The seventh [White Wolf], I have never seen before, and I heard that it is quite bloodthirsty; the eighth [Fifth Leopard] is just a rather impulsive boy! "

It wasn't long before Guan Yu came to Dongfu City, but he had a half-understanding of several important generals under Guo Zidong's command.

Of course, Guo Zidong’s generals had collected information before this, and even Liu De praised Yan He, which is quite similar to what Guan Yu said. Among these people, Yan He has the most comprehensive ability, and even Yan He’s political Ability can govern a county well, reaching 74, which is higher than some of Liu De's civil servants, and Jian Yong is only 71.
Guan Yu is a proud man, and it is very rare to get a good evaluation from Guan Yu. Except for Yan He, Guan Yu has a relatively low evaluation of others, and even Pan Jinlong's evaluation turned out to be a foolish and reckless man. disdain.

But Zhang Fei likes to drink, and he had a conflict with Pan Jinlong when he was in the tavern. Fortunately, he was dissuaded in time, otherwise Pan Jinlong might be beaten to death by Zhang Fei.

The person Zhang Fei spoke loudly was Pan Jinlong.
