At night, Lin'an City.

King Zhennan looked anxiously at his advisers and generals who were gathering together. He had already received news that Emperor Xuanwu had received a report of the destruction of the army in Linan Kingdom. The imperial envoy sent by the court was on his way to the south.

Perhaps it won't take long before he, the once arrogant King of Zhennan, would be thrown into a prison car and escorted to Beijing.

Daxia did not take the defeated generals to kill them in one go.

But this time, everything that King Zhennan faced was different from other defeated generals.

When the Li Nan Kingdom flooded a hundred thousand troops, the King of Zhennan, as the commander, was not among the army. This was his greatest sin.

A hundred thousand troops entered the enemy's capital, but the commander of the army was not in the army.

If a crime of dereliction of duty is detained, the King of Zhennan will be doomed.

"Why don't you talk?"

"The imperial envoy from the court is on his way to the south. If I am convicted, who can stay out of your affairs?"

As a subordinate of King Zhennan, if King Zhennan is convicted and these people fail to fulfill their responsibilities of persuasion, they will also be punished with minor or severe punishment.

"Prince, for the sake of this plan, if you want to escape from the crime, you must defeat the army of Li Nanguo."

"My subordinates think that the army of Li Nan Kingdom has been sieging the city for several days. The so-called one-stop movement will decline again and then be exhausted. During these days, the weather is unbearable, and the morale of Li Nan Kingdom's military will inevitably be greatly reduced."

"It's better, the prince sends troops to steal the camp tonight!"

"If you can defeat the enemy in one battle, the prince can also make up for his merits!"

It's still Qin Shiyu.

As the number one strategist under the command of King Zhennan, Qin Shiyu has been making a big splash recently and has proposed several clever plans for King Zhennan.

"Stealing a camp is a good idea!"

King Zhennan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. Then his eyes swept over the generals sitting on one side, "Who is willing to recommend himself to steal the camp tonight?"

"I'm willing to go!"

The moment the King of Zhennan spoke, Qi Biao, the leader of the personal guard beside him, was the first to respond.

"Okay, then, I'll leave the matter of stealing the camp to you!"

King Zhennan did not ask others if they wanted to go there too. As long as a general took the lead in stealing the camp, the king of Zhennan did not care whether the person who stealed the camp could succeed.

"Your Majesty is waiting for the good news from the last general!"

Qi Biao is full of confidence.

As the commander of the King of Zhennan, Qi Biao's military strength is really worth a lot. The reason why he is so confident is mainly because he believes in Qin Shiyu's analysis.

Of course, Qi Biao himself also has his observations.

The army of Li Nanguo sieges for several days, and the morale of the soldiers is indeed getting worse and worse.

At this time, the success of stealing camp may be really high.

After Qi Biao went out to select the personnel to steal the camp, the King of Zhennan swept his eyes at the general who was still here, and spoke in a deep voice, saying, "Tonight, after Qi Biao led his people to steal the camp, everyone will follow me to fight out of Lin'an City!"

"If this battle fails, you will be successful!"

The imperial envoy will arrive soon. If the situation on the battlefield cannot be changed quickly, he, the King of Zhennan, will really come to an end. At this time, the decisive battle may be defeated, but he may also win.

Although the military strength of the two sides is very different, there have been countless battles that have won with less and more.

He may not be able to win in defeat.

As for the consequences of defeat in this battle, it is no longer considered by King Zhennan.

If he was defeated, then even if the flood was flooding, it would have nothing to do with him.

If he was defeated, he would definitely die on the battlefield.

One general succeeds and thousands of bones are woven!

...

Pingyuan County Government Office.

County Magistrate Lin Lianzheng looked at Mr. Zhou who was visiting with a serious look on his face. Similarly, Mr. Zhou also had a serious expression, which shows that the things they were talking about were very serious.

"Old General Zhou, will King Zhennan really make a desperate bet?"

Lin Lian took a deep breath and asked again.

Mr. Zhou focused his attention and said, "Yes!"

"When things have come to this point, he has no other way to go. The current King of Zhennan is just a gambler. If he wins the bet, he can save everything he has now."

"I lost the bet, he died on the battlefield!"

"At that time, even if the Lord hates him so much, what can I do?"

Yes, what can I do?

Everyone died, and even had to be praised for his name. After all, King Zhennan died on the battlefield, and died in the battle for Daxia.

"Once the King of Zhennan takes a desperate bet, if he wins, Lin'an City and Chengzhaofu can be saved. If he loses, Lin'an City will not exist. Although the army of Linan may not be able to take the opportunity to sweep the entire Chengzhaofu, Pingyuan County cannot escape."

"Elder General, what do you think you will do!"

Lin Lian was also sure at this moment that King Zhennan might be willing to make a gamble. No matter what the outcome is, King Zhennan can maximize its profits, but King Zhennan's profits are destined to be forged with the blood of countless people.

"Tiger jumps into the gorge!"

"Take people to Tiger Leaping Gorge, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as you defend Tiger Leaping Gorge, the army of Li Nanguo cannot invade Pingyuan County."

As a veteran on the battlefield, Mr. Zhou has undoubtedly excellent strategic vision.

Tiger Leaping Gorge is the only place to pass when Lin'an City enters Pingyuan County.

As the old man said, as long as the Tiger Leaping Gorge is controlled, the army of Li Nanguo will not be able to invade Pingyuan County. However, it is not an easy thing to defend the Tiger Leaping Gorge.

Tiger Leaping Gorge is easy to defend but difficult to attack because it is a very narrow canyon. Even if you have thousands of troops, in this narrow and long canyon area, the number of soldiers and horses each time you fight is only a dozen.

In addition, if one side can climb to the Tiger Leaping Gorge first, condescending down, and defend it with bows and arrows, it will be even more difficult to break through.

However, if you want to climb to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, you cannot do it without agile and quick-witted persons.

Zhou Yi and others have this ability, but they have too few people. Even if they go to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, it is not enough to create an absolute suppression effect.

This is also the reason why Mr. Zhou came to find Lin Lian, the county magistrate.

His plan was to ask Zhou Yi and others to climb up the Tiger Leaping Gorge first, and then put down the rope ladder, while the yamen in Pingyuan County climbed up against the rope ladder.

By then, as long as the middle of the Tiger Leaping Gorge is blocked, the army of Li Nanguo can be blocked in the Tiger Leaping Gorge.

Lin Lian naturally had no objection to Mr. Zhou’s arrangements. After all, he was just a civil servant, and the kind of war was purely a talkative person on paper.

...

In Beiding Pass, Su Zhengfa, Su Laosi and others fully controlled this heroic pass that once belonged to Li Nanguo.

"Second, what do we do next?"

After taking Beiding Pass, Su Zhengfa did not immediately lead people to Lin'an City. There were only more than 6,000 people on their side. It would not be easy to cooperate with Lin'an City to capture the army of Li Nan Kingdom, even if the hostages such as Li Nan Kingdom were in hand.

After all, there are really many large soldiers in Li Nanguo.

The difference in military strength is too great. It is too difficult to defeat the strong with the weak and defeat the more with the few.

"Uncle Mangzi, you are making things difficult for me!"

When Su Laosi heard Su Zhengfa’s question, he rolled his eyes and said, “What do I know about war? I just have the strength to fight. How to fight, I have to listen to you!”

If it weren't for this accident, Su Laosi was still fiddling with the land at home, thinking about how to farm and change the title. In war, it was really not Su Laosi's, so he wouldn't dare to talk nonsense.

"Just say whatever you want!"

Su Zhengfa also rolled his eyes.

"I really don't know!"

Su Laosi didn't know how to fight. As a honest person, he never pretended to be wise.

"Or, ask someone else?"

Su Laosi had no choice but to give Su Zhengfa advice.

Su Zhengfa was speechless and said, "If I could ask others, I would have asked a question long ago!"

"Uncle Mangzi, why don't we bring those people from Li Nan Kingdom? Let their king give a decree and let their general come here to report on military information?"

Su Laosi was stunned for a while, and suddenly came up with an idea.

When Su Zhengfa heard Su Laosi’s idea, he did not respond for a while. After a while, he couldn’t help but laugh and said, “The fourth brother, you have you, haha, you really have you, this is a good idea!”

"Capture the king first!"

"If we can take down the general of the Li Nanguo army in one fell swoop, then what if there are many soldiers and horses in the Li Nanguo?"

"Haha, the fourth brother, I really have you!"

"Let's go and see Lord Li Nan, and let that old boy give orders quickly!"
