After hearing what Li Chongjiu said, General Xue Wanshu said: "Your Majesty, the food and grass in Xuzhou City are in urgent need. The best strategy is to kill and kill. Forced attacks may lead to a lot of casualties."

‘The trap may not be effective,’ Ji Chuan said, ‘As far as I know, there are at least tens of thousands of people in Xuzhou City. If the Jianghuai Army really has no food and grass, it is likely to feed on people, so it can support it for more than ten days.’

After hearing what Ji Chuan said, all the generals showed serious expressions on their faces.

General Wang Mahan said: "Damn, the Jianghuai Army will be so cruel. Can even do such a thing?"

‘What is impossible? The Jianghuai Army was originally a rioter. When Du Fuwei started his family, he did many more brutal things than this.’ Yu Shinan spoke.

Li Chongjiu also knew that the people of Jianghuai were strong, and the ones they lacked were ambitious people, such as Liu Bang, the Pei Gong in history, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the Huai Youbuyi, another time and space. These two heroes who started from scratch and had the world were considered to be Jianghuai people.

Speaking of Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou, they are just a little bit unlucky, but in terms of ruthlessness, they are not inferior to these two people. They are really too impatient to force them. Fu Gongyou really did this.

Zhang Xuansu said: "If Your Majesty wants to break Xuzhou, you must isolate the power of Xuzhou. Xia Pi and Xiaopei's troops are not directed by the Jianghuai Army, but they can be defeated first."

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "Zhang Aiqing has always been aimless. If you say so, you must have a look."

Zhang Xuansu said: "It's your Majesty who understands me. Good news should be available in less than a few days. At that time, your Majesty will take two more generals."

Li Chongjiu nodded and said to the generals: "Yes. It is the best way to go down to Jianghuai without fighting. I have always told you. The whole country is the best, and the country is the best. I must be a complete Jianghuai, not a blocked Jianghuai."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiong, the surrendered general of the Jianghuai Army, said salivatingly: "Your Majesty, Fu Gongyou forcibly suppressed the Jianghuai Army and killed the general Ximen Junyi. At present, there must be panic within the Jianghuai Army. The last general felt that the Jianghuai Army was still defending the dead because there was no way out. If he retreated to one side, he would give the enemy hope of escaping, the Jianghuai Army's determination to defend the dead would inevitably collapse, and he would definitely be able to defeat it in one battle at that time."

"It is not impossible to surround three and one, but if Fu Gongyou escapes, flees to Jianghuai, or surrenders to Li Tang, it will be endless troubles for us." Xue Wanshu said this.

Wang Xiong said coldly: "General Xue, this makes sense, but we cannot avoid taking this risk. If this is not the case, Xuzhou City will not be captured quickly and delayed for a long time, not only will our army delay the time for rescue of Luoyang. Moreover, the people of Xuzhou will inevitably be killed by the Jianghuai Army, so it is reasonable. We must not fail to adopt this strategy."

After hearing this, Li Chongjiu said to the generals: "This strategy is indeed a bit risky, I want to hear your opinions."

Yu Shinan said: "Your Majesty. I think it's not possible. Like Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou, you are like wild grass. If you don't cut the weeds and roots, you can rise again at any time in the future. Once Fu Gongyou escapes back to the Yangtze River, he can immediately recruit 100,000 more people in Jiangyou to make a comeback."

After hearing Yu Shinan's words, Li Chongjiu nodded. This is the troublesome place for the peasant army. There is no need to mention more examples. Liu Heita can be mentioned in the near future, and Li Zicheng can be recommended in the future.

When Wang Xiongxian heard Yu Shinan say this, he sat down again and expressed his lack of refutation to his words.

Ji Chuan said: "It doesn't mean that we really want to let the Jianghuai Army go. We can set up ambushes along the way of the Jianghuai Army and deliberately lure Fu Gongyou to come and go."

After hearing what Ji Chuan said, everyone's eyes lit up. Qin Qiong laughed loudly and said, "Isn't this ambushes on all sides?"

After hearing what Qin Qiong said, the generals laughed.

Song Jingang smiled and said, "In the Battle of Gaixia, Han Xin set up ambush on all sides, destroyed the Chu army and killed the King of Chu. We have never seen how powerful these ambush on all sides."

‘What’s the difficulty? The ambush on ten sides is just a legend. Now we don’t need to ambush on ten sides, but we set up three ambush on the south side of the city, waiting for Fu Gongyou to come and drill.’ Ji Chuan said with confidence.

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "It's very good, so let's follow this proposal. Tomorrow, the army will attack the city from three sides, and leave the south side of the city to break through the Yangtze and Huai Army."

‘No!’ All the generals agreed with a loud voice.

At the moment of dispersing the tent, Li Chongjiu and the generals walked to the camp gate and suddenly had a plan: "Since I am ambushing on all sides, I remember how many families of the Jianghuai army were escorted from Jiangdu and Danyang?"

‘Two or three hundred people.’

Li Chongjiu said: "I understand, I'll find soldiers with a Jianghuai accent in the army. I'll be useful tonight."

After hearing what Li Chongjiu said, most of the generals couldn't figure out the meaning, only Zhang Xuansu understood it several times.

That night, the night wind was very tight. The camp of Zhao soldiers was still as quiet as before. However, Fu Gongyou, who had been rolling on the tip of the knife all day, smelled a different smell from it.

There is no reason, this is purely an intuition, derived from the experience of life and death on the battlefield.

He was not relieved, so he personally took a short axe and took his close confidants to the city wall to inspect. Fu Gongyou inspected several city walls, and the morale of the soldiers of the Jianghuai Army was depressed, but fortunately the situation did not worsen to the point of mutiny.

The big reason for the sluggish morale was caused by food shortages for many days. Fu Gongyou was not worried about this. If the Zhao army sieges the city again, there were so many people in the city, and these meat and food were enough to support it.

As for the deaths of Du Fuwei, Wang Shibian, Ximen Junyi and others, he also handled them very properly. Although he did not completely eliminate these people's forces, he suppressed them in full.

Fu Gongyou is now just worried about the unstable morale of the army. The news that Danyang and Jiangdu were captured was almost an open secret among the senior generals. Although the lower-level soldiers in the army have not spread in full, there will always be a trace of wind. Although he tried hard to block the news and said that this was a fake news deliberately spread by the Zhao army, the soldiers were always skeptical.

Who knows what the Danyang soldiers and Jiangdong soldiers, as the main force in the army, would think? They would definitely not be interested in fighting, and they would definitely be a mutiny at that time.

Now Fu Gongyou can only walk for one day. He firmly believes that the Zhao army will not siege the city for too long. As long as he survives this most difficult period, he will replace Du Fuwei and become the next King of Jianghuai.

The torches on the outside of the city wall were blown lightly and darkly by the wind. Fu Gongyou walked on the city road as if he was walking on a road of light and darkness.

Fu Gongyou knew that he was on a cliff now and would fall into the abyss if he accidentally took a step, but he had no way back now and could only go step by step.

Halfway through, I heard a melodious song from a distant place.

The song went from blur to clear, which made Fu Gongyou and the Jianghuai soldiers on the city wall next to him listened seriously.

This tune seems a bit familiar.
