Chapter 971

"General Chen is better?" Looking at the heavy mountain coming to the door, Sun Bi greeted with a smile.

"The prince is worried, and the only thing that is, the little illness is almost cured." Shen Chongshan could only reply like this, but this title made Sun Bi feel a little unhappy.

He is the King of England, and it is naturally nothing wrong to be called the prince. But the problem is that he still has a certain identity as the commander of the army in the northern border, and Shen Chongshan is his direct subordinate. Therefore, the most reasonable name is Sun Shuai or Da Zheng. The title of the prince means that he does not recognize his identity.

However, Sun Bi did not show it, and still smiled and looked concerned: "That's good, but you have just recovered from a serious illness, so you should take a break. If you have the commander and the soldiers below in the army, there will naturally be no problem."

Hearing the deep meaning of the speech, his face slightly sank, and he smiled reluctantly: "The prince is polite, but since the last general leads the king to guard Youzhou, he dare not relax at all. In fact, it is not only me, but also the generals below have the same thoughts. Although it is reasonable for the prince, you just decided to let Zhao Feijie and Qian Jin send troops to rescue Yingzhou, I still feel a little frustrated."

As a military general, Shen Chongshan's eloquence was indeed not very good, and he didn't have much thought to circle Sun Bi, so he used a very stiff method to directly bring the topic to his purpose. After saying that, he even stared at the other party: "I want to ask the prince to think twice, whether he can take it back."

Sun Bi naturally knew his purpose, but he didn't expect this guy to be so direct. So after a moment of silence, he said seriously: "Why did this military order betray? Yingzhou is now in danger. Since Youzhou is in sufficient troops, it is better to send troops to rescue him. Even if it is to lead a unit of enemy troops out, it is good to share the pressure on defending the city there."

"The prince's plan is indeed good, but the problem is that we are not very familiar with the number of troops invaded by the Guirong. At this time, we rashly sent people to the place, which is likely to send sheep into the tiger's mouth. Not only can we not save the siege of Yingzhou, but it will only increase the damage and be unfavorable to the war.

"So in the eyes of the last general, the safest way is to send a scout to find out the enemy's movements and forces, and then according to the actual situation of the enemy, it is a good way to defeat the enemy and retreat."

Sun Bi narrowed his eyes and looked at the other party. As a major general in the border area who had been leading the army for many years, Shen Chongshan naturally had deep experience in using troops against the enemy and had outstanding abilities. The strategy proposed at this time cannot be wrong. But he still could not accept this plan: "What you are saying is some truth. If it were ordinary times, the general would naturally not make a rash move, but now it is different.

"The previous mistakes in Xuanzhou have shocked the government and the people in the capital, and the people in the capital are uneasy. If Yingzhou is lost again, the consequences will be even more unbearable. Therefore, Yingzhou must be defended. To rescue Yingzhou, as you said, you must first understand the strength of Guirong, but relying on scouts to spy on it is obviously far from enough.

"General Chen, you are also a long-time general in the border area. After many battles, you should know that only by looking at the number of troops, you cannot measure the combat power of the army. Only through real battles can you gain some control. That is why I thought of sending a army to test first. Even if you sacrifice something, it would be worth it."

When Chen Chongshan heard this, he looked even more nervous. It seemed that the other party was really willing to do this. He immediately said anxiously: "But..." As soon as he said, Sun Bi waved his hand and interrupted: "I know you have concerns, but the general needs to consider not only Youzhou, but also the entire northern border. So even if some people want to die because of this, they can only accept it. As the saying goes, Ci does not control the troops. I think with General Chen's experience, wouldn't he not understand the truth?"

After saying something, he blocked the heavy mountain and said nothing.

Indeed, there have always been tactics of deliberately giving a soldier to the enemy for testing, and he has made such a decision in the past. But the problem is that what Sun Bi wants to give away this time is his trusted subordinate. How can he accept it?

Then, he suddenly woke up again and said that he was really underestimating the King of England. He thought he could use some military experience and principles to convince the other party, but obviously he knew these things better than him, so he could not persuade them with ease and slight dispelling them. He could only tell the truth.

After hesitating for a while, Jin Chongshan finally smiled bitterly: "The prince's arrangement is not only for Yingzhou, but also for the current situation in Youzhou. I will know that many people are disrespectful to you during this period. I have actually scolded them. It is just that these people are arrogant in life and do not know that the prince is noble, so they will offend them more.

"If the prince is really angry, just fight for the last one in the future, please don't blame them!"

Sun Bi narrowed his eyes and his face turned cold again: "General Chen, what do you mean? Are you saying that this general is planning to take revenge in this way, and deliberately sent them to die? Then you underestimate me too much. Since Sun Bi is the commander of the three armies, he is the general order. A word can determine life and death! If I really want to attack someone, even if you, I don't want to escape. Now, I am just making a decision based on the situation and letting two troops go to Yingzhou. Why does it become a fake public service to get private?"

He was scolded like this and was really panicked. In terms of mind and eloquence, he was more than one level away from Sun Bi. Now he knew that he was in the wrong, and he was speechless and didn't know how to reply.

Seeing this, Sun Bi looked even more serious and said in a deep tone: "General Chen, I know you are a long-time general in the northern border. No matter what credit or experience is above me, I am somewhat dissatisfied with me, the commander sent by the court. I don't blame you for this, but I also hope that I can use my own performance to reverse your view of me.

"However, my authority as the head coach cannot be challenged by anyone. This is related to the entire situation of this Northern Expedition, and it also affects the millions of Dayue soldiers and even the entire country! If you have any different opinions, you can talk to me openly, but don't think of using some dirty means to hinder my plan. There is not only you, Youzhou City, but also Yingzhou, Jinzhou, Jizhou... If necessary, I can give up the entire Youzhou just to achieve the final victory. Do you understand what I mean?"

These words were already quite obvious. Even though he was slow, he felt the strong pressure, which made his forehead sweat. After a while, he ate and said, "I... I will understand."

"No, you still don't fully understand what I mean." Sun Bi refused to give in. At this time, he stood up suddenly, came to him a few steps, stared at the burly general who was a circle bigger than him, and lowered his voice and said, "I finally won the commander of the three armies of the Northern Frontier this time, and it is related to whether I can go further. If this matter can be accomplished, I will naturally not forget the great help from you, General Chen and me, but if it fails, I will make my plan empty... Of course, I can't escape death, but you, and your subordinates, have to give me a custody.

"So, don't think about retaining your strength. If you think about your contribution to the court, I dare not do anything to you! Now I have no way out, so the same is true for you. Either you make great contributions to the Dayue court, or you will die in the battlefield and leave a good reputation in the future."

The low words came into his ears like a big bell. Not only did they shake the heavy mountain's soul, but they also completely woke him up - this King of King Ying, who seemed easy to talk to before, was the real outlaw!

But unlike ordinary outlaws who dare to fight for their lives only because they have no worries, they have to take a gamble because they have so much desire and no other choice. But the more they do so, the more pressure he puts on the heavy mountain. He could hear that the other party really dared to do that, and even once he hinders his plan, the other party will only take action more ruthlessly than he says.

As the prince, there is only the crown prince and the crown prince, or even the emperor. Even if he is at the border, he has heard of such a major event in the court. So at this time, he had no choice. After a moment of stunned silence, he immediately stood up and responded: "The general... the general understands. The prince only has instructions in the future, and I will definitely..."

"Huh?" Since Sun Bi was no longer tolerant of all his words, he heard that he was still calling him like this, so he snorted heavily. Shen Chongshan was stunned, and then he also understood what the other party was dissatisfied with. He quickly changed his words: "The general will do his best in the future, and he will not dare to shirk it at all."

"That's good. Next, you come forward and bring out the grain and supplies in the granary in the city, and divide them with the government troops coming from elsewhere. Everyone is all robes, and they are even coming to protect Youzhou. Why do you still divide them into each other?"

"Yes, let's make arrangements for this, and we will definitely not have such disputes again." Jin Chongshan hurriedly agreed, hesitated for a while before asking again, "That's the matter about sending troops to rescue Yingzhou..."

"As usual. But you can tell the second general Zhao Qian that I did not ask them to die, but focused on finding out the enemy's strength and combat effectiveness. If it is really not an opponent, retreat first. In short, weakening their offensive against Yingzhou does not necessarily require a strong attack, and you can use more strategies." Since Sun Bi was the commander of the three armies, how could the military order issued by the three armies be changed lightly?

Shenshan hesitated for a moment, but he was obediently accepting the order. At this time, his aura was suppressed by Sun Bi, and he had no courage to plead again.

It was not until he said goodbye that Sun Bi let out a long breath and sat back on the chair with some fatigue. Although he had just said something to the other party, the psychological game was even harder than any real fight. After all, he did not have much experience in this area before. It was really not easy to be able to subdue a general like Shen Chongshan with a little knock.
