Chapter 18: Chapter 8: The Battle of Longyou, Divine Troops Descend
Feng Yi sighed helplessly, just about to speak.
At this mont, an armored soldier suddenly rushed in from outside the tent.
"Report!!"
"General, a letter from His Majesty!"
This instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
The generals almost instinctively stood up and walked towards the tent entrance, taking the letter directly from the ssenger’s hand.
Since it wasn’t an edict, there were not so many formalities.
They opened the letter and looked at it.
Feng Yi’s expression imdiately beca animated.
"General...."
Wu Han and the others stared intently at Feng Yi, eagerly asking, "Does His Majesty have any instructions?"
Regarding who is the current supre commander of the Great Han.
These proud generals had no debate, having a very unified answer.
That is Liu Xiu.
There’s no need to talk about other achievents, just the battle of Kunyang alone commands their respect.
"His Majesty instructs us to never let the enemy relax!"
Without any unnecessary words, Feng Yi directly passed the letter to everyone while saying, "Wait for news from the Grand Commandant!"
"The Grand Commandant?"
Looking at the letter’s content, everyone was utterly perplexed.
Instinctively, they thought Gu Xiao would co to the front line.
But if he were coming, why would there be such advice?
Not letting the enemy relax?
At a ti like this, not letting the enemy relax ans we need to attack?
Actually, regarding Gu Xiao’s abilities, these people also had respect, as many surprise attacks done by him were sothing they might not be able to accomplish.
But comparing Gu Xiao to Liu Xiu.
Naturally, there’s no comparison.
In the current situation, what use would Gu Xiao be at the front line?
"General... Can the Grand Commandant have a strategy to defeat the enemy?"
Wu Han instinctively asked this question.
Gu Xiao’s character is extrely military-oriented, and due to his status, their relationship with Gu Xiao is actually quite good.
But speaking of the best relationship.
It would naturally be with soone like Feng Yi, who has interacted with Gu Xiao.
However, Feng Yi was also full of doubts at this mont, as he took the letter from everyone and studied it carefully.
Contemplating for a long ti, he finally guessed sothing.
Then he opened his mouth and said, "His Majesty probably left sothing unsaid."
"The Grand Commandant is skilled in surprise attacks."
"I reckon he already has a plan to defeat the enemy but cannot state it explicitly in the letter."
This analysis made perfect sense.
In these tis, sending letters carries risks, especially to the front lines; important matters cannot be explicitly stated.
Hearing this, the generals were instantly taken aback.
A strategy to defeat the enemy?
Could there truly be a strategy to defeat the enemy in this terrain?
"No need for speculation, the Grand Commandant’s surprise attacks exceed common expectations, and we are unlikely to guess his plans."
Feng Yi straightened his face and said once more, "We just need to follow orders!"
With that said.
He wasted no ti and stood up directly, "Transmit my command, starting from tomorrow."
"All generals are to lead their troops to attack the city!"
"We must not let the enemy army relax!"
Upon hearing this, all the generals imdiately rose, bowing towards Feng Yi:
"Understood!"....
...
Jixian County.
"Report!!!"
"To the king!"
"The Han Army has suddenly launched an attack and is at the city gates!"
Seeing the armored soldier who suddenly burst in, Kui Xiao was first stunned, and then his face imdiately broke into a smile.
"Hahaha!"
"Excellent! Excellent!"
He laughed heartily, "Do they really think Long Mountain is so easy to break through?"
"Send my order!"
"The entire army is forbidden to leave the city. Drag out the Han Army!"
"As long as the Han Army’s montum dwindles!"
"We can engage in a decisive battle and surely defeat them!"
"Then... we shall advance on Guanzhong, and our grand enterprise will be accomplished!"
Kui Xiao’s thoughts were very clear.
Upon hearing this, his subordinates were also greatly encouraged, each brimming with fighting spirit.
This was destined to be a bloody battle.
The terrain of Long Mountain is currently Kui Xiao’s biggest trump card.
In such a commanding position, facing the Han Army advancing against the odds, they held an absolute advantage!
The volleys of arrows were like rain covering the sky.
Mixed in with them were rolling logs and stones!
Under these circumstances, the Han Army seemingly had no chance of victory.
Yet despite this.
The Han Army continued fearlessly to charge upward.
One day;
Two days;
Three days;
Gradually, even Kui Xiao started to beco numb.
He sensed sothing was off.
Even though Liu Xiu was not at the front line, given Feng Yi’s reputation, he was not soone who would fight in such a manner!
Yet no matter how puzzled he was.
Facing the Han Army that attacked almost daily, he never imagined soone could bypass Long Mountain and strike into his rear depths!
In this era, moving a large army through the mountains was indeed inconceivable.
Never mind how perilous the mountain was, just the wild beasts and diseases caused by so many people would be lethal.
But just as Liu Shan hadn’t thought Deng Ai would march straight into Chengdu.
Finally, half a month later.
News from Luoyang finally ca.
This military stronghold at his rear.
Had fallen!
Upon hearing this news, Kui Xiao was completely dumbfounded.
The earlier confusion was resolved in a day.
Understood, understood!
The Han Army attracted the attention of his elite forces, then executed a surprise attack on Luoyang!
Gu Xiao!
This na, which he had recited countless tis, slipped from his mouth once more.
Only unlike before;
Previously, he often mocked Gu Xiao for not being on the front line yet becoming the Grand Commandant of the Great Han.
This ti, it was for Gu Xiao’s previous military achievents!
He almost instantly determined who was in command of this surprise attack.
