System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

"After Yufu is captured, Uncle Cai will lead his troops to join the frontline army."

Xu Rong began to give instructions to Cai Mao.

"Your Majesty has said that you will be the commander-in-chief of this battle, and my uncle will obey you."

Cai Mao nodded slightly and immediately agreed.

He is a clear-headed person who knows what to do and what not to do.

It's harmless to take advantage of someone verbally, but if he does something weird during a battle, he's afraid that it will implicate his sister in the palace.

"We don't need to be too hasty in this battle."

"You can even wait for the opportunity to succeed."

Cui Yan on the side stroked his beard and spoke to Xu Rong and others.

"To wait for the hard work?"

"I wonder what Ji Gui's plan is?"

Xu Rong felt as if he had grasped something, but for a moment he couldn't figure out how to take advantage of the situation.

"Let Liu Bei attack the city and capture the stronghold for us."

"We will just sit back and reap the benefits. This way, we can save a lot of trouble and prevent our soldiers from suffering too many casualties."

Cui Yan gave a sinister sneer.

"..."

"This is a brilliant plan... But if we do this, we can't leave anyone alive, lest Liu Bei ahead notices."

Xu Rong couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Liu Bei and others. Although it was sympathy, he particularly liked Cui Yan's strategy.

Who would be willing to work hard if they can get something for nothing?

In the end, Your Majesty just wants to see the results, not whether they fight the enemy with real weapons.

On the contrary, Your Majesty might even be happy to know that they had no difficulty in traveling.

Thousands of warships of all sizes set out from Yiling, anchored in Zigui, and waited for two days before finally getting the right wind direction.

River marching is fast, but it also depends on the weather.

This large-scale attack on Yizhou required a great deal of supplies, weapons, and soldiers to be carried on board. Therefore, relying solely on manpower to move the warships would have resulted in a very slow march and a difficult breakthrough of Yufu Pass.

Therefore, only a good wind direction can allow the battlefield to have enough speed when sailing against the current.

Set sail and set sail.

With the help of strong winds, the ships almost covered the entire Yangtze River, like a long dragon of warships, stretching for dozens of miles.

Many people may not be familiar with Yu Fu, but I think few people are unfamiliar with the name Baidi City.

Baidi City was built on a mountain with the river flowing around the city, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

When Liu Bei entered Sichuan, he did not attack Baidi City. Instead, he took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and led his fleet to bypass the city and reach the heart of Yizhou.

After all, Liu Bei does not need logistical support, because there are only enemies behind him and no friendly forces, so he can play like this.

The defending general Chen Shi led 5,000 elite soldiers to defend this place for several months, but was forced to surrender to Liu Bei because of the lack of food and grass.

"General, the Lord has told us to be alert to the enemy's movements. The Qian army is attacking Baidi City, so we should hold on and wait for reinforcements."

Li Guang looked at Chen Shi and handed him the letter sent by Liu Bei.

"I originally had five thousand soldiers and horses."

"After I surrendered to him, he immediately took away two thousand, leaving me with only three thousand. How do you expect me to defend it?"

"The Qian army has already stockpiled over 100,000 troops in Jingzhou."

"Three thousand against one hundred thousand, do you think I'm Zhang Liao, or that Xu Rong is Sun Quan?"

Chen Shi tore up the letter and said angrily.

"What should I do?"

Li Guang asked helplessly.

"If they want to fight, I will surrender. It doesn't matter who I surrender to. Anyway, my family is not in Liu Bei's hands."

Chen Shi spread his hands and chose to give up.

In the current situation, no one would fight to the death with the Qian army.

Military generals are common people, but they are not fools.

"What about those two thousand brothers?"

Li Guang asked with some reluctance.

"It's none of my business. Those are Liu Zhang's troops, not my relatives."

"If you keep talking nonsense, I will give you the position of garrison commander and row my boat to Jingzhou."

Chen Shi said very simply.

In fact, we can’t blame Chen Shiguang for being a bachelor, but there is no point in fighting him.

Now the whole world has fallen into the hands of the Qian Kingdom, with only Yizhou left. Even if they hold on for dear life, how long can they hold on?

What's more, Yizhou had experienced rebellions for a long time, and the people of Yizhou no longer wanted to fight.

It wasn't just Chen Shi who didn't want to fight, but the entire Yizhou military and civilians didn't want to fight.

"Report!"

"General, the beacon tower on the cliff has been lit, and the Qian Kingdom's warships are only ten miles away from Baidi City."

At this time, a soldier came running and reported to Chen Shi.

"Li Guang, go and move all the troops on the ford back into the city. Open the city gates and no one is allowed to defend it."

Chen Shi gave orders to his deputy general.

"promise!"

Li Guang walked out of the mansion without hesitation.

The warships broke through the water surface, and as soon as Li Guang reached the shallows, he saw the river on the east side filled with warships.

"Fuck...it's right not to fight."

Li Guang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sighed.

This scene alone is enough for Li Guang to remember for the rest of his life.

The wide river was filled with huge naval warships, and the end was as far as the eye could see.

On the warships, there are rows of armored soldiers and sophisticated equipment.

The fleet is fully armed with the necessary weapons such as paddles and crossbows for naval warfare.

"Everyone, listen up! Retreat back to the city."

Li Guang gave orders to the thousand or so people on the shallows.

For a long time, these thousand people did not move.

Li Guangxin thought something was wrong and quickly rang the golden bell.

The shrill ringing of the bell brought the frightened thousand-man army back to their senses.

"escape!"

"Run away!"

"I can't fight!"

The military commanders and team leaders fled towards Baidi City with their soldiers.

What does it mean that the military is at its peak?

What does it mean to defeat the enemy without fighting?

At this moment, it was fully interpreted.

Who says having more troops is not beneficial?

When the gap in military strength is extremely large, many soldiers will even lose the courage to fight.

Elite troops have their advantages, and strong troops also have their advantages.
