Huang Zhuang clasped his fists together, "I finally understand!"
Just as the two of them finished talking, General Huang Zhuang was about to take people to patrol the camp. At this time, a soldier came over on horseback and reported, "General Qi, we found an enemy soldier under the north wall. I am going to send news outside the city. When the patrol team of our army was rounding up, the spy killed three soldiers of our army, and after being captured, he hit the spearhead and killed himself when our soldiers were unaware!"
Chen Xian and General Huang Zhuang were taken aback, and Chen Xian immediately said to General Huang Zhuang, "You are staying behind in the camp. I will go and see for myself!"
"promise!"
Chen Xian led his soldiers to the scene of the crime on horseback.
A large number of soldiers have gathered around the scene of the crime, everyone is holding torches, three steps, one post and five steps, one post, the security is tight, and the scene has been protected.
After Chen Xian arrived on horseback, Xiang Zhuang, who was in charge of patrolling, immediately went up to meet him.
"General!" Xiang Zhuang clasped his fists together.
"Which one?"
"Here!" Xiang Zhuang led Chen Xian to a corpse.
Chen Xian squatted down, and the soldiers next to him lowered the torch so that he could clearly see the face and figure of Xi Zuo, and a spear was stuck in the chest of Xi Zuo's corpse.
Standing by the side, Xiang Zhuang explained in detail the process of discovering the secret operation and deploying the arrest, as well as the process of the secret operation resisting and seizing the opportunity to commit suicide after being arrested.
Looking at his face, this assassin is about 30 years old, with a dark complexion and a very ordinary appearance, the kind that won't attract the slightest attention when placed in a crowd.
Chen Xian picked up the meticulous hands and looked at them. His hands had thick knuckles, rough skin, and calluses. They were obviously people who often used weapons.
Chen Xian asked, "How did he spread the news outside the city? Have you found out?"
General Xiang Zhuang waved his hand, and two soldiers came over, one with a bow and the other with a knife.
"Look, general. When I found this man, he was shooting arrows out of the city with his bow. When we rushed up, he had already shot the arrow. The thing with the message must have been tied to the arrow. He should have used this When Zhang Gong sends news outside the city by shooting arrows!"
"There is also this knife, which is a finely crafted weapon. It is not a standard weapon for our army, nor is it a standard weapon for the dry army. It is used by people in the Jianghu. It is lighter in weight and one size smaller than the standard military saber, so it is easy to use. Those who move and dodge, close to kill!"
Chen Xian took the bow and the knife and looked at them one by one, then went to the corpses of the three soldiers who were killed and squatted down to look at the wounds. He saw that the fatal wounds of the three soldiers were all on their necks.
"What a powerful sword technique!"
Chen Xian got up and ordered, "Try to find out the identity of the spy in the city. Although he is a spy in the army, he must have a clear identity in the city! After finding out his identity, find his residence and search carefully. Don't make too much noise, maybe he still has accomplices, don't alarm anyone, send someone to ambush his residence, once someone approaches his residence, arrest them first!"
"promise!"
The news in the city was still tightly blocked. The ordinary soldiers in the army did not receive the news that Liu Yu had died suddenly. For several days, there was no movement from the high-level officials and generals in the city.
In the past few days, the guards on duty on the city wall have found that the barracks outside the city are getting louder and louder. What does this mean?It shows that the number of dry troops arriving here is increasing.
When the news reached the ears of high-level officials and generals in the city, the situation became different. An invisible panic spread among the high-level officials and generals in the city.
Some high-ranking officials and generals finally got really scared, and once they were scared, some people couldn't sit still and calm down.
In the afternoon, the Governor's Mansion notified the officials and leading generals to rush to discuss matters after dinner.
After dinner, Chen Xian rushed to the Governor's Mansion with his own soldiers. This time, he keenly noticed that the atmosphere was obviously different, and the security inside and outside the Governor's Mansion had been strengthened a lot.
Chen Xian walked into the lobby and saluted with all the officials and generals, and knelt down in one position.
Soon, all the people who were supposed to come arrived, Ma Zhongliang, who was in charge of Zhizhong, stood up and bowed to everyone and said, "Dear colleagues and generals, this time I have summoned you to come here for a discussion. It was decided after a few people discuss together, the main purpose is to discuss whether we will fight or surrender next!"
Captain Ye Tongzhang couldn't help but sneered, "Still discussing? Didn't we discuss it two days ago? So many people discussed it all night, and everyone just talked about it and didn't say a word of usefulness! In my opinion, today only I'm afraid it's the same! If you really want to discuss, I suggest that everyone should make a clear statement. If you advocate surrender, you should state your reasons; Nonsense, useless, waste of time!"
At this time, the defenders in the city of Chengdu were divided into three parts. The first part was the 1000 city guards led by Captain Ye Tongzhang and the young men who had been recruited not long ago. Because of the young men who joined, the combat power was weak; the second part It is the Chengdu Army, with 2000 people left, with strong combat power, led by the army leader Guo Li; the third part is Chen Xian's Qianwei Army, whose combat power has declined due to the recruitment of a thousand recruits.
Many officials had embarrassment on their faces.
Ma Zhongliang laughed twice, and said, "General Ye is an honest man, and he can't hide his words in his heart, but what I admire most is people like General Ye. When getting along with people like General Ye, I don't need to spend my time guarding against him!"
Speaking of this, Ma Zhongliang's face became serious, "I won't gossip, let's be serious. What General Ye said just now is not unreasonable. We are now the backbone of Chengdu City. Where do we go in Chengdu City?" We can no longer play sloppy eyes on the issue, and we cannot delay it any longer, the longer the delay, the more dangerous the situation will be!"
"Now, I'm here to tell you about our strengths and weaknesses. Let's talk about the strengths first. There is still enough food and grass for everyone in the city for half a year. How long it will last in terms of ordnance is uncertain. It depends on the intensity of the battle. With frequent battles, more and more weapons will be consumed quickly, and the problem of waste is inevitable. However, even with high-intensity battles every day, we can still last for two months with the state of weapons in the city! Another advantage we have is that the city walls are tall and thick , it is not easy for the enemy to climb up, and it is not easy to smash it down with siege equipment such as trebuchets!"
"Furthermore, our disadvantages are first, our army's morale is low, and we have long had a sense of fear of dry troops; second, our army has only about 500 soldiers who have undergone formal training, including some soldiers brought by General Chen. Thousands of 600 people, if the old, weak, sick and disabled are excluded, only young and middle-aged men from the age of 16 to 40 are counted, and there are only 3000 at most! We still have [-] new recruits. After a few days of training, these talents can even Some people don't even have the correct posture for holding weapons, and they don't even know how to use a crossbow!"
"Third, we don't have cavalry, so we can only stay in the city and stand firm. We can't seize the opportunity to go out of the city to fight back, and we can't even destroy the enemy's siege equipment that has a fatal attack on the city wall!"
"Fourth, we can't get in touch with the imperial court, so we don't know when the imperial court's reinforcements will arrive. Maybe...the imperial court will not send reinforcements at all. It is futile for us to stay here even for half a year. The city will eventually fall, and we have no hope!"
"I will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the army. Let me talk about their advantages first. First, they have opened up the passage from Hanzhong to here, and they can continuously transfer troops from the country. Second, their soldiers are hard-working, They fought bravely, had high morale, and were powerful in battle. Third, their government and military orders were communicated smoothly, and their command was unified! Fourth, the emperor of Qian’s country’s presence on the front line had a great effect on boosting the morale of the army. Not afraid of death, this is something our army can't do!"
"The dry army also has disadvantages. First, they are not prepared enough, and the siege force cannot keep up in a short time; second, the transportation of food and grass is inconvenient; third, the siege equipment is not prepared enough!"

Chapter 1000
"Colleagues and generals, the above is my official analysis of the pros and cons of the enemy and us. If anyone has a different opinion, you can raise it! If not, please colleagues and generals express your thoughts based on the above analysis. We can't wait any longer. We must come up with a decision that everyone agrees on as soon as possible!"
After Ma Zhongliang, who was engaged in Zhizhong, finished speaking, the lobby fell into a brief silence.
It doesn't work if no one speaks, this matter has to have a result, don't drive Tang Xiaoquan glanced at the expressions of everyone, his eyes fell on the face of Guo Li, the leader of the Chengdu Army, and asked, "General Guo, do you want to lead the army and dry the army?" The confrontation has been going on for such a long time, how long do you think the defenders in our city can block the attack of the dry army?"
Guo Li is also an old man. He shook his head and said, "I haven't fought before. I don't know the enemy's siege power. I can't estimate it. You can only know it after fighting! Lords and generals, please don't put your hopes on me. Nearly half of the 2000 people are old, weak, sick and disabled, if there is a fight, I don't know how long it will last!"
Tang Xiaoquan didn't intend to let Guo Li go just like that, "Then, how does General Guo think about whether I should surrender or defend?"
Guo Li had already scolded him in his heart, this Tang Xiaoquan is really not a son of man, why did he catch him and not let him go?His eyes wandered, thinking about how to answer so as not to reveal his true thoughts.
But Tang Xiaoquan saw his plan all at once, and planned to set him up to look at Chen Xian, "General Chen, what do you think?"
Chen Xian stood up under everyone's gaze, "I am a general, and the duty of a general is to defend the land and protect the country. If the enemy comes, I will surrender with my soldiers, and I will become the laughing stock of the world. The general of Song Dynasty If the officials and officials are like this, what hope is there for this dynasty? You might as well write to the court in the morning to persuade the emperor to surrender to Qian with his civil and military ministers!"
"By the way, Wang Zhubo, you are a person who has read the sage books. Did the sage books say what to do as a minister in such a situation? Surrender?"
Wang Fuwen couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and the faces of other civil servants turned red.
Chen Xian didn't want to play tricks with these civil servants, he knew he couldn't play tricks, and he didn't have the time and energy, so he might as well make it clear while taking this opportunity.
"I don't know what you guys think, I will come up with my own idea, two months, stick to it for two months, if the city is breached within these two months, life and death will be in the hands of the people of the country; if we After defending for two months and the imperial court’s reinforcements still haven’t come, if anyone wants to surrender, they will not be stopped!”
Ye Tongzhang looked at Chen Xian, and felt that this man was interested in him. After a little thought, he immediately said loudly, "General Chen's words are in line with my wishes, so I will keep it for two months! Of course, if someone wants to surrender right now, I will not." Stop it, but you can only leave the city alone!"
Chen Xian nodded to Ye Tongzhang and looked at Guo Li, "General Guo, General Ye and I intend to stay for two months, what do you say?"
Guo Li was sweating a little on his back, wondering why these two guys are so stupid?Stick to it for two months?Do you really think you have a golden body of immortality?Can't kill?
