Chapter 179 Assembly
"Do you want to...!"
The same exclamation came out of the two people's mouths almost at the same time.
One is Yang Mingzhong and the other is Zheng Yuanyun.
Here, Chen Ze had almost explained what Yang Mingzhong said, and only then did Yang Mingzhong, who always put safety first, think clearly about the key points.
As for Zheng Yuanyun, Mr. Hua didn't bother to speak openly, but Zheng Yuanyun himself was stunned by the words he roared without thinking.
Zheng Yuanyun was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned and landed on the huge marching map in the tent.
At this level, he didn't need to mark the map at all. He only simulated the chess pieces in his mind, and then deduced the movement routes of the chess pieces from all sides, and he immediately came to the conclusion.
No one would disturb Zheng Yuanyun at this time, but he himself, after calculating for a moment, looked at Mr. Hua silently.
"This kid is so brave!"
Zheng Yuanyun gritted his teeth, but his complexion was much softer than before, no longer livid.
This sentence said through gritted teeth contained more of a sigh.
Hua Lao smiled, he knew what Zheng Yuanyun was unhappy about.
Chen Ze told no one about this plan, and even Hua Lao only saw something fishy from the clues.
Especially when Chen Ze asked Zheng Yuanyun to send 500,000 elite troops to support him, Hua Lao was even more certain of this.
And he also understood the reason why Chen Ze didn't explain it in advance.
These people, these generals in the big tent, including Zheng Yuanyun, are too concerned about Bo'an City.
When a large army comes to attack, everyone's first reaction is to defend the city and defend it to the death. The city of Bo'an must not be lost!
Chen Ze even made a suggestion to abandon Bo'an City, and it was adopted by Zheng Yuanyun. After it finally evolved into the favorable situation now, Zheng Yuanyun was still thinking about how to severely damage the enemy and then regain Bo'an.
.
But in fact, when things have come to this point, Zhu Yan's army is actually very passive, and Bo'an City can definitely achieve greater results.
We only need to hold back Zhang Chengwang's army here. How can we defend the province of Nantes, which is empty at the rear?
After being cut off by Chen Ze and Yang Mingzhong, Zhang Chengwang's troops, no matter how large they were, were still a lone army. Going deep alone sounded domineering, but more often than not, it was actually a helpless choice.
Just like now, if you retreat, you will definitely lose your vitality. After Bo'an City takes a breath, no matter how safe Zheng Yuanyun is, he will definitely attack Nantes Province to avenge today.
But if they advance, there is still a glimmer of hope. Since Bo'an City has divided its forces to take care of the rear, its frontal strength will naturally not be as good as Zhu Yan's army. If it fights hard, it may not be incapable of fighting.
The opportunity is fleeting. If Zhu Yan's army is not lured out of the city for a decisive battle at this time, once Zhang Chengwang chooses to withdraw his troops regardless of casualties, although his vitality will be severely damaged, his strength will still be preserved. At that time, Zheng Yuanyun will consolidate his forces and carry out the attack.
In the province of Nantes, it was really just revenge.
The time is not as good as it is now. Not only can we sword guide the special province, but maybe even more...
Take it in one fell swoop!
The words Zheng Yuanyun yelled out in anger just now were meant to vent his anger, but as soon as he said these words, Zheng Yuanyun suddenly felt... there is a lot to be done!
At this time, he also understood the reason why Chen Ze did not explain it clearly in advance.
Having said that, he would definitely not agree, and at the same time he would also shelve the issue of withdrawing the city. Not to mention that after the situation developed to this point, Chen Ze also believed that with Zheng Yuanyun's military qualities, he would not notice that he was not aware of the situation.
to this point.
Zheng Yuanyun was slightly ashamed. In fact, he really didn't realize it. If Mr. Hua hadn't mentioned it from the side, all his thoughts at the moment would still be on recovering Bo'an City.
Mr. Hua didn't say anything more, but sat back on his chair, reaching for the wine bottles on the table as a habit. Only then did he realize that he didn't bring wine today, and he couldn't help but smack his lips with regret.
"Pass the order!"
After thinking about this, Zheng Yuanyun raised his eyebrows sharply and shouted quickly: "Order all the troops from the nearby cities to come to us, and no soldiers are allowed to be left behind!"
It's not that the cities in Anluo Province don't have troops, but they must reserve some soldiers to defend the city, firstly to stabilize the city affairs, secondly to guard against spies, and thirdly, to fear that robbers will take advantage of the situation during the war.
It can be said that in the current situation, compared to seizing the province of Nantes, these are minor matters, and we can wait until the overall situation is settled, and then free up our hands to solve it slowly.
Things had priorities. After Zheng Yuanyun thought about it, he immediately made a decisive decision.
Although he has many troops here, they are really smaller than Zhang Chengwang's. If he adds the last troops sent from various cities, Zheng Yuanyun is not afraid of Zhang Chengwang in a duel.
As the saying goes, don’t panic when you have food in hand, but it’s the other side that should panic now!

"You want to... attack the province of Nantes?"
There was hesitation in Yang Mingzhong's eyes. Looking at Chen Ze, he was also stunned by the audacity of this little schemer.
This was something that even a general at the governor level did not dare to think about. As a result, what he saw now was that Chen Ze seemed to have been plotting this matter for a long time.
"Does General Yang think it's feasible?"
Chen Ze smiled and did not deny it.
Yang Mingzhong was silent.
Is it feasible?
Although the army he brought did not have any useful large-scale siege equipment, in contrast, the Nantes province did not have enough defenders to defend the city.
Anluo and Nantes have been fighting for so many years, and they know each other very well. They have an idea of how many troops the other party has, and the difference in this number will never be too big.
With the current strength of troops brought by Zhang Chengwang, it is considered good to have 50,000 garrison troops left in each city in Nantes Province.
With half a million to fifty thousand, Yang Mingzhong believed that he could use local materials and make a batch of simple ladders on the spot. He was confident that he could attack the city in one fell swoop.
And in fact, it is not necessary for him to capture all the cities in the province of Nantes with 500,000 men. In that case, he would not even have enough troops to garrison the cities.
The situation in the province of Nantes is similar to that of the province of Anlo, except that there are three cities with as important status as the city of Bo'an, and it is these three cities that confront the city of Bo'an.
Xili City, Ketan City, and Ter City, these three cities were equal to the importance that General Zhu Yan had in the eyes of General Bo'an.
This is a great opportunity!
Yang Mingzhong suddenly became excited.
If he can capture three cities in one fell swoop, his achievement will be extremely great. As long as he controls these three important military towns in Nantes Province, then the entire Nantes Province will be in the possession of the Qingyang Empire.
They get whatever they want!
"Then when shall we set off?"
Yang Mingzhong asked excitedly.
"No, not us."
Chapter completed!
