Zheng Yuanyun has always been a man who enjoys great achievements. This is the most mentioned point in the intelligence collected by Ouyang Lixing.

You must know that the people who know you best are often your enemies. As the Nantes Province, which has been fighting with Anluo Province and Zheng Yuanyun for more than ten years, it is difficult to collect detailed information about Zheng Yuanyun.

Nothing could be easier.

This intelligence also helped Ouyang Lixing gain the upper hand in every battle against Zheng Yuanyun. Even before, Zheng Yuanyun would rush into Xilong City and Tianyuan City, which was not beyond the scope of his intelligence.

So when Chen Ming revealed that Zheng Yuanyun was already asking for help from neighboring provinces when he was still in Xilongcheng, Ouyang Lixing felt incredible.

In fact, Chen Ze, who first learned about this, would have a calmer reaction, because at that time he already knew Zheng Yuanyun's situation very well. Why did he come up with the idea of ​​ceding interests in advance? To put it bluntly, it was

It was because Chen Ze, who was also Commander Luo, put strong pressure on him.

At that time, Zheng Yuanyun's desire for the province of Nantes was actually not that great. What he wanted more was a victory and the benefits that a simple victory would bring to him.

For example, the rank of national master.

For example, the imperial reward he received for a great victory made him instantly famous.

Only when these conditions are met, can Zheng Yuanyun have the confidence to stand up to Commander Luo and have the confidence to kill first and then show off, so that he will not be blamed by the empire after killing Commander Luo.

For this reason, Zheng Yuanyun was very eager to capture the province of Nantes so that he could carry out his follow-up plan, instead of slowly advancing and using a more reliable method to capture the entire province of Nantes.

It was precisely for this reason that he fought extremely aggressively, without even caring about the lives of his soldiers. Therefore, at that time, Zheng Yuanyun made a decisive decision to cede benefits in exchange for a large number of reinforcements.

At the beginning, Chen Ze also held back and did not tell the matter. He only said that he would delay Zheng Yuanyun's subsequent reinforcements. As Ouyang Lixing thought, the subsequent reinforcements would naturally be mobilized by Anluo Province.

, Otherwise, how could Chen Ze have the confidence to hold off even if he said he would hold off.

At this time, Chen Ze saw that the time was ripe, so he made Chen Ming disappear for a while and then told Ouyang Lixing the so-called bad news.

From Chen Ming's perspective, this news really shocked Ouyang Lixing, so much so that he didn't speak again for a while.

It wasn't until a while later that Ouyang Lixing said coldly: "So, has Zheng Yuanyun requested this part of the reinforcements?"

Chen Ming pretended to sigh, shook his head and said: "Back then, my young master deliberately blocked the reinforcements coming from Anluo Province, but he never expected that this guy Zheng Yuanyun would actually retain such a hand."

"When he learned about the incident from Zheng Yuanyun's confidants, he immediately sent people to investigate the rear. As a result, when the sent personnel reached the vicinity of Ketan City, they had already encountered a large number of people who came to support them.

Reinforcements!”

He bit the word "large number" very hard, which made Ouyang Lixing raise his eyebrows.

"What's the specific quantity?"

Ouyang Lixing Leng asked.

"three million!"

Chen Ming did not hesitate and gave the answer directly, shaking his head and saying: "When my young master learned about this, it was already too late. Three million fresh troops were about to arrive in Ketan City and join Zheng Yuanyun in Juhe City. It is only time.

question."

"One more thing."

Before Ouyang Lixing's ugly face turned even uglier, he raised his eyes again and said: "The reinforcements that my young master intercepted totaled 500,000, and these 500,000 soldiers were from Zheng Yuanyun's expedition in Anluo.

A private army deliberately trained by the province. What does it mean to believe in a private army? There is no need to explain it to General Ouyang in detail, right?"

Ouyang Lixing did not speak.

Of course he knew what a private army was. In fact, in the main city of Fengqi Province, there was also a private army that he personally trained. However, the pressure in the main city of Fengqi was greater at that time, so he would

The troops stayed in the city and chose to gather troops from the cities along the way to rescue Dongping City.

"My young master can temporarily hold back this private army, but it won't last long. Once the reinforcements from behind catch up, after the two forces merge together, there will be a total of 3.5 million troops. My young master is

It’s impossible to control it anymore.”

Ouyang Lixing frowned. He looked at Chen Ming and snorted: "At this time, what is your intention of saying such things to me, General?"

"Didn't your young master say that he would be in charge of the reinforcements? Why, now he just can't control it and it's over?"

Chen Ming's attitude also became tougher. He straightened his back and said: "General Ouyang, it's not a matter of who blames whom. Just imagine, if my young master didn't come to explain to General Ouyang after receiving the news, it would be even worse.

Isn’t that right?”

These words made Ouyang Lixing remain silent.

Yes, if Chen Ze knew about it and did not report it, but instead turned around and ran away without knowing anything about him when the reinforcements came, then no matter whether he could run away or not, one thing that is certain is that Ouyang Lixing would be worse.

!

A common problem is that although Ouyang Lixing had a large number of troops at hand, the quality of the troops was uneven, and they were not as good as Zheng Yuanyun's elite troops and generals.

This was also the reason why he did not dare to confront Zheng Yuanyun head-on even though he had more troops.

When Zheng Yuanyun's reinforcements arrived, firstly, he did not have an advantage in strength, and secondly, the quality of his soldiers was also at a disadvantage. A defeat was inevitable.

Chen Ze told him this matter at this time, which can be said to be dishonest. On this point, Ouyang Lixing really had nothing to say, let alone criticize Chen Ze.

But in turn, although Ouyang Lixing no longer dwelled on Chen Ze's incompetence, he began to consider his current situation.

The obvious point is that if Zheng Yuanyun's reinforcements arrive if he delays any longer, he will definitely not be able to defeat him here, and it is very likely that Zheng Yuanyun will eat him in one bite without leaving any scraps behind.

Therefore, the best strategy now is to retreat, retreat to Tianyuan City, or the city at the rear, implement the strategy decided at the beginning, and defend until the Zhu Yan Empire sends people.

But Ouyang Lixing did not say it clearly. Instead, he looked at Chen Ming and asked, "In addition to asking you to bring back this bad news, does your young master have any good suggestions for this?"

He did not believe that Chen Ze would provide him with such information in vain and miss the opportunity to escape.

So Ouyang Lixing is still very curious about how Chen Ze will respond to this?

"some!"
