Chapter 76 Charge to the White Mast(1/2)
Faced with the tragic experience of having three hundred thousand soldiers and horses buried in a sea of fire in an instant, Chen Youliang, who was completely helpless, became completely angry.
He has always been a winner since he joined the army. Whether he was a secretary at the beginning, a general later, or the emperor of the Han Dynasty later, every step he took was in his calculations, and there was never any deviation.
At that time, he was always the winner.
He has always maintained the posture of a victor, looking down on his ministers and controlling all nations from a high position.
But since Monk Zhu appeared, everything has changed.
Everything has undergone a qualitative change!
All the plans and decisions that had been planned to win thousands of miles ago seemed to have failed in an instant.
Once upon a time, all the common people in the world were deployed by me, and the heroic spirit of millions of troops under my command seemed to disappear in an instant.
Instead, there were successive defeats and constant defeats.
Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be his destined nemesis.
It is the nemesis of fate that he cannot escape or avoid in his life.
He could maintain his attitude of contempt when facing Ni Wenjun or Xu Shouhui. These people could be used by him. In his eyes, these people were just chess pieces that could be used by him.
You can use it yourself, and you can also throw it away at will.
But with Zhu Yuanzhang, he found that any strategies and traps were useless.
Faced with a huge defeat that cost him 300,000 troops in just half a day, he hated Zhu Yuanzhang.
He hated Zhu Yuanzhang from the bottom of his heart.
I hate him with gnashing of teeth, and hate him with all my heart!
Chen Youliang, who was already completely passive on the issue of Zhu Yuanzhang, summoned all the few remaining generals after all 300,000 soldiers and horses were destroyed in the flames.
He scanned the people in the audience with his swollen red eyes. These men who were still alive were the only surviving troops in his hands, and they were his only remaining main force that could compete with Monk Zhu.
This is his last trump card.
Opening them will also open the door to hell.
One thought of heaven, one thought of hell!
This was a choice made from the moment I decided to come to Poyang Lake.
Facing this group of men who, although they could still stand in front of him, had lost all the blazing light in their eyes and had no fighting spirit and murderous intent, Chen Youliang no longer showed the aloofness or domineering behavior he had in the past.
momentum.
At this time, he is more like an old man in his twilight years, an old man who has gone through many vicissitudes and is still struggling.
He vented the long-suppressed anger in his heart with a voice that seemed to be venting but more like pleading.
"The responsibility for today's defeat lies with me and has nothing to do with you!"
"I won't punish any of you for this!"
"You can rest assured!"
Everyone in the audience was shocked and secretly relieved.
Although they have served in the Han army camp for many years and have been serving this old man named Chen for a long time, they are still not sure about the pulse of the old man in front of them.
This bastard, who is regarded by everyone as a thug and a tyrant in the hearts of the people, is a complete and utter scoundrel.
In the face of this man's murderous character, the little life he still had a second ago might end in an instant.
Therefore, they have always maintained a mentality of being cautious and reticent.
I would rather have nothing to say than risk my life to speak out.
To use a more civilized expression, it is called: Be wise and protect yourself!
To put it in a harsher way, that is: living one day counts as one day, and just messing around means one day!
After every defeat, even if the decision-making responsibility must be on him, as the emperor who knew his mistakes and could never admit them, what Chen Youliang would inevitably do was to use a few scapegoats as his shield.
It was the same at this time. Just when everyone was terrified, they discovered that the boss didn't kill anyone anymore.
Instead, take the initiative to admit your mistakes.
This was an absolute surprise to them.
Unexpectedly, they also seemed to experience some unusual smells.
Chen Youliang's low and cold voice paused for a moment and then sounded again: "Although we are defeated today, I might as well tell everyone that I still have one last trump card!"
“It’s still unclear who will have the last laugh!”
"I just hope that everyone will not be affected by today's defeat. In the final duel tomorrow, all of you can move forward without any worries!"
"The success or failure will all be decided tomorrow!"
Everyone's eyes instantly changed from confusion to shock.
He looked up at the boss on the stage in shock, and saw the cold and heroic light on the cheeks of the cold and majestic man in front of him, the ruthless light bursting out of his eyes and the eruption of hell.
The cold flames shot out made everyone who was already cold and at a loss tremble with fear!
They had never seen each other like this.
This expression will never appear unless forced to do so!
At this time, Chen Youliang was like a wolf!
A wild wolf that has been covered with bruises but is still extremely proud!
A cold-blooded and ruthless jackal who is scarred and on the verge of death but is still murderous and will not give up until he achieves his goal!
A jackal who was repeatedly forced to retreat revealed all the sharp fangs hidden in his body in his ferocity and violence.
Once this fang is exposed, it will definitely fight to the death like a ferocious beast.
Even if the final result is death, the enemy will definitely pay an immeasurable price!
…
On the other side, in Zhu Yuanzhang's military tent.
Zhu Jiajun, who had won a great victory after burning the Han camp, was extremely excited at this time. They never thought that a fire could burn Chen Youliang's 300,000 soldiers and horses.
This is a huge victory for them.
After these 300,000 soldiers and horses were killed, they seemed to be able to see the future where Chen Youliang was about to be defeated.
The happiest person here should be Guo Xing.
The proud smile on his round cheeks is enough to make you laugh out loud!
He opened his mouth and laughed heartily, and the flesh on his body could not help but tremble every time he laughed under his short and fat body.
The idea of burning the Han camp was brought up by him and was carried out in accordance with his strategy.
Although there was no fire to completely burn this bastard Chen Youliang to death, burning more than half of his troops was still a huge profit, and he was considered to have done a great job!
In this case, Zhu Yuanzhang summoned all the generals. He needed to hold an emergency mobilization meeting, which can also be said to be a swearing-in meeting.
After all the soldiers were assembled, Zhu Yuanzhang went straight to the point: "Chen Youliang's defeat today is definitely a huge blow to his morale. His demise is just around the corner. I believe that if we all work together, we can definitely kill him!"
Everyone who was still in the mood was extremely excited and eager to try.
But at this time, a man stood up and gave Zhu Yuanzhang a cold start at the moment of excitement.
At this time, as the coach, Zhu Yuanzhang learned a piece of news that shocked him from an exclusive channel.
This news concerns his life and fortune and that of his entire army.
After confirming the accuracy of the news, Zhu Yuanzhang made emergency arrangements overnight.
After making sure that everything was safe, an almost evil and cunning smile finally appeared on his twisted cheeks that were more like a shoehorn and more like a pig loin.
Chen Youliang, with these, you are still alive!
the next day.
Chen Youliang, who was fully prepared and ready to fight to the death, arrived in front of the battle early!
When Chen Youliang led his warships and troops to Poyang Lake, when he saw the vast white mast in front of him, the little fighting spirit he had managed to squeeze out was completely extinguished.
He knew that today was a complete failure!
Before the war even started, he already knew that he was completely and completely defeated!
According to the information he received, Zhu Yuanzhang's command ship should have a unique white mast.
But at this moment, in the vast expanse of snow, Zhu Yuanzhang's battleship was nowhere to be found.
Facing the flag that should have been a white mast like a white javelin in front of him, Chen Youliang's original plan was to capture the thief first. As long as he killed Zhu Yuanzhang, his army would be defeated.
This is his final decision and his last chance to make a comeback.
But what he didn't expect was that the accurate information he had sworn to, and the spy he finally trusted, would ruthlessly betray him overnight.
Zhu Yuanzhang painted all the masts white overnight.
