More than ten miles north of Pingzhou City, ten thousand cavalrymen of Cheng Feishi were stationed here at this moment.

In the current situation, there are 10,000 people in Pingzhou City, plus the 10,000 cavalry in Cheng Feishi's hands, which is 20,000 people. On the other side, Zhang He had just arrived with 15,000 people. Although Li Congshan's bare-shirted army wiped out Tian Zhang's 40,000 troops and achieved a great victory, it was somewhat damaged, with about 2,000 casualties and 18,000 left.

The gap in military strength between 20,000 and 33,000 is actually not big, but neither Cheng Feishi nor Zhang Chong in the city dared to make any moves. The reputation of the bare-shirted army is too great. Of course, this reputation is not expressed by others, but is a real and famous person.

Cheng Feishi was walking back and forth there, frowning and sad. He had already known the news about Tian Zhang. The 40,000 troops were wiped out, and Tian Zhang fled back to Youzhou in a panic.

"General, what are your plans?"

An officer of thirty-five or six whispered beside him.

The officer is Zhang Gu, who is tall and has super martial arts skills. He was promoted by Cheng Feishi. He is his confidant general and now serves as a general in the army.

The military generals of the local military governors were different from the central government. The rank of Ya was not high among the vassal states, but they were just equivalent to the rank of the imperial court, but their position was very important. For example, Cheng Feishi's ten thousand troops, the Central Army and the Asian Generals had nearly ten people, but Ya was only two or three. Zhang Gu's official position was not high, but he had two thousand personal guards. These were the elite soldiers and was carefully trained by him.

Cheng Feishi glanced at Zhang Gu. The other party did not say how to fight this battle or how to fight. Instead, he asked himself what he had plans as soon as he opened his mouth. This was obviously something in his words.

Cheng Feishi said indifferently: "There are no outsiders here. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Zhang Gu did not rush to speak, but walked to the door and glanced left and right, and ordered the soldiers guarding the door not to inform and no one was allowed to enter without authorization.

"Brother, you know how powerful the bare-shirt army is. If you fight hard, we will definitely lose. There is no possibility of victory. If you don't fight, you will break through. We senior generals may be able to escape, but how many of these ten thousand soldiers can escape?"

Zhang Gu walked to Cheng Feishi near and whispered, "There are no outsiders now, and Zhang Gu called Cheng Feishi the eldest brother."

After listening to Zhang Gu's words, Cheng Feishi pondered silently.

Seeing that Cheng Feishi didn't say anything, Zhang Gu said anxiously: "Brother, you don't know about Tian Zhang's temperament. Now we have two ways. First, if we fight to the death with Li Congshan, we won, there is nothing to say, but we can win? The 40,000 army was wiped out. This will be a big blow to the morale of the army. If we fight with such a mood, we will definitely lose. Second, we will break through the siege firmly, but how many soldiers can escape? Even if we escape back to Youzhou, the army will suffer such great losses, there will always be someone to come out to take the blame. At that time, Tian Zhang will not let you go, and you will still be dead."

Cheng Feishi has followed Tian Zhang for many years. He naturally knows his personality and character very well. Without Zhang Gu, Cheng Feishi also understands it.

After Tian Zhang took power, he divided his younger brothers into the place. In the first ten years, the brothers cooperated happily, but since Tian Zhang's status was stable, he began to attack his brothers, gradually reducing their rights, and finally severe persecution.

Tian Lin was assigned to Beizhou. He and Tian Zhang were brothers of his family. Even so, they were suspicious of Tian Zhang six years ago and were deprived of all rights and eventually died of depression.

Tian Lin was in charge of Beizhou for more than 20 years and trained a cavalry. Although the number was not large, only 10,000, the combat power was quite strong. This army was the 10,000 cavalry led by Cheng Feishi now. Therefore, Cheng Feishi was not Tian Zhang's direct line, but because of his generous personality and excellent popularity, and his ability to command troops was outstanding, Tian Zhang did not make things difficult for him in the end, and still let Cheng Feishi lead the army, but also had a large number of confidants in it.

Cheng Feishi's deputy general and military supervisor were Tian Zhang's fifth son, Tian Shuo.

"Brother, you are talking."

Seeing that Cheng Feishi had not spoken, Zhang Gu became a little anxious.

Cheng Feishi glanced at Zhang Gu and said indifferently: "What's the hurry? If the bare-shirted army wants to destroy us, they won't have taken action yet."

Zhang Gu was slightly stunned, and then said with some clarity: "Brother means that Li Congshan also has the intention to surrender?"

Cheng Feishi laughed and said, "I want to see now whether Li Congshan dares to come to me."

Zhang Gu said: "The risk is too great, only fools will come. Brother, don't be persistent."

Cheng Feishi remained silent, and after a moment, he silently said: "Let me leave my last bit of backbone."

Zhang Gu looked at Cheng Feishi and understood his intentions. As long as Li Congshan dared to come, Cheng Feishi would surrender immediately. If he didn't come, he would fight.

Zhang Gu's face had a bitter smile and nothing to say, because he knew that Cheng Feishi was a backbone person. If it weren't for the sake of the soldiers below, the possibility of his surrender was very low. Of course, there were other factors. Cheng Feishi and Tian Zhang had conflicts. His best brothers were brutally killed when Tian Zhang gathered military power. Although Cheng Feishi had never said anything, Zhang Gu knew in his heart that Cheng Feishi was extremely dissatisfied with this and was extremely angry, but he was powerless to fight and could not take any action.

At this time, a curse suddenly came from outside the tent: "Get out of here, you dare to stop my path, can you be blind?"

Zhang Gu said: "It's Tian Shuo."

Cheng Feishi curled his lips: "Go out and have a look."

"good."

Zhang Gu nodded and then walked out.

Soon, a slap came and it was very loud.

Immediately, a middle-aged man in his forties walked into the tent with a gloomy face.

"Cheng Feishi, it's time. Do you still have the intention to hide here and relax?"

After Tian Shuo came in, he immediately pointed at Cheng Feishi and questioned angrily.

Cheng Feishi frowned and said, "I am thinking about a plan to get rid of the enemy here. I can't afford this for the fifth young master."

Tian Shuo asked coldly: "I wonder what good strategy General Cheng came up with?"

Cheng Feishi looked at Tian Shuo and asked back, "What are the opinions of the fifth young master?"

"Breakthrough."

Tian Shuo said: "You and I will divide our troops into two groups, each leading five thousand soldiers. You break through the north and I will break through the east. There are only 20,000 bare-shirted troops. And we just experienced a big battle last night. At this moment, we must be very tired. We break through the two groups, and they will definitely not be able to stop us."

After hearing Tian Shuo's words, Cheng Feishi remained silent.
