kingly way

Chapter 203 Chapter 203
The surprise attack on Yingluo this time was only to disturb the enemy army. The number of people was small and the action was fast. By the time Tian Shangcheng organized the archers, the South Vietnamese army had already returned to the city wall, and they were hanging back from each other.

Bai Zhaorui ordered the sneak attacking soldiers, some of them only suffered minor scratches when they climbed the wall, so the loss was not great.

Bai Zhaorui returned to the Yamen after finishing the spotting of the sneak attacking soldiers, looking very happy, and said, "Haha... Ling Duleng must hate us this time, let him teach him a lesson. The soldiers were tested just now, and there was no damage."

Ying Luo said flatly: "Our intention for this operation is not to hurt the enemy, but to test the reason why they hold back the troops. Therefore, the soldiers are young and smart, and I tell the soldiers not to feel proud because of this small victory."

Everyone responded in unison: "Obey."

Ying Luo glanced around at everyone, and said, "Everyone split up and get ready, and the patrols should step up their patrols; Ling Duleng will definitely not let it go tomorrow after being so stingy this time."

……

The next day, the Kyushu army seemed to have nothing happened, and it was still the same...

Ying Luo was puzzled: "This Ling Du Leng is really calm, what's going on? Does he already have some plan to break the city?"

Su Yun was also puzzled, "That's right, isn't Xu Guojun going to conquer our South Vietnam? Why have they been standing still?"

"If this goes on, it will cost a lot to both the enemy and us. It is impossible for Ling Dulen not to have thought of that."

The interrogator rushed in and reported: "General, Lord Yang has arrived at the gate of the Yamen."

"Come on, let's meet them."

After Ying Luo finished speaking, he walked out of the gate of the Yamen together with Bai Zhaorui, Su Yun, and Gui Shanbing.

Yang Shaogong, Wu Heqing, Wu Jingde (Xue Renhao) and a group of guards have arrived at the gate of the Yamen with pride.

When Ying Luo saw Yang Shaogong, he hurriedly went up to meet him: "Master Yang has traveled a long way, and he has never greeted him from afar, please forgive me for being rude."

Yang Shaogong returned a salute: "Your Majesty Ying has a lot of things going on in his army, so you don't have to be polite."

"Your Excellency, the speed is so fast. It's been a hard journey. Master Yang, please come inside."

"Master Ying, please."

Ying Luo led everyone into the living room of Yiya, and everyone sat down in turn according to the host and guest.

After Yang Shaogong sat down, he said with a smile: "I just heard that Mr. Ying won a big victory when I arrived in Shouchun City. Congratulations, hahaha..."

Ying Luo smiled slightly, "It's all thanks to Lord Yang. The soldiers knew that Lord Yang was coming, so they specially prepared a meeting ceremony for Lord Yang."

"Master Ying, why did the enemy army only besiege the city and not attack it recently?"

"I also feel strange about this matter."

"Master Ying, can you accompany me to the viewing platform on the city wall to watch the battlefield?"

"Master Yang is exhausted from running around, why not take a rest before going to the observation deck."

After listening to Ying Luo's words, Yang Shaogong laughed and said, "What is this little suffering? Thinking back to when I was young and went to the battlefield, I didn't rest for three days and three nights. Haha..."

Ying Luo also smiled and said: "My lord has the spirit of governing the army, and I must study hard when I am my generation."

"Then invite Master Ying to leave."

"Master Yang, please."

After Ying Luo finished speaking, he, together with Bai Zhaorui, Su Yun, Gui Shanbing, Wang Tongqing, Tao Yilan and others, led Yang Shaogong, Wu Heqing, and boarded the observation platform on the city wall...

Yang Shaogong looked at the Xuguo army camp, observed it carefully, then pointed to the Xuguo army camp and said, "Ling Duleng is indeed a veteran in the battlefield. Look at the camp he has set up. Inside, there are wooden planks between the two rows of tree trunks, and the upper and lower levels are clearly defined, so that the part of the long trunks grows into a protective wall. The upper layer of the wooden planks can allow soldiers to patrol and watch, and the lower layer can not only store defensive weapons, but also allow soldiers to rest. It is indeed an experience. The old-fashioned method of camping."

Ying Luo looked at the Xu Guojun barracks, nodded and praised: "Master Yang is familiar with the art of war, and his analysis is clear and logical, which is admirable."

Yang Shaogong smiled complacently, and said: "Haha... I just understand superficially. Ling Duleng camped like this, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Sir Ying shot through the defensive line with rockets, and retreated after the attack. This is nothing more than disturbing the enemy. , and will not harm the enemy."

"Master Yang is right, this battle is not won by luck."

The corner of Yang Shaogong's mouth curled up slightly, and he said in a sarcastic tone: "Master Ying, the battlefield is a real battle, and it can't be done by luck."

Ying Luo was ridiculed by Yang Shaogong, but he was not angry. He still had a smile on his face and said: "On the battlefield, strategy is the main way to defeat the enemy. The purpose is to win the battle. Do you know what I mean by luck?"

The corner of Yang Shaogong's mouth curled up slightly, and he asked with a sneer: "A fluke is a fluke, does Mr. Ying have another explanation for luck?"

Ying Luo looked at the enemy's barracks and said with a smile: "In a war between the enemy and us, each has its own strategy. If you think about it first, you can strike first. If the enemy sees through my strategy first, and the enemy has made full preparations in advance, there will also be strikes later. As a result, every strategy has a certain degree of fluke, and I was lucky enough to get a temporary victory."

Yang Shaogong's face began to turn angry, "The battlefield is not a place where the tongue is fast. May I ask how many enemies you have killed this time, and have you retreated?"

"Although the damage to the enemy is not great, it also dampens the enemy's spirit and prepares for future victories."

Yang Shaogong's face changed and he said: "Your Excellency Ying just said to strike first, but the enemy has camped opposite our camp for so long. Although our number of soldiers is not as good as that of Xu Guojun, has your lord considered that the enemy army is coming from a long distance away?" Come on, since we came from a long distance, we are at a disadvantage in terms of location and timing, why didn't Master Ying attack them?"

Ying Luo smiled slightly and said, "Master Yang, before the enemy set up their camp, they must have made defensive preparations. Just now, Master Yang also said that Ling Duleng's camp like this is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We are losing if we attack them." There are many chances to win, but few chances to win; while they set up camp, a long time is beneficial to us; think about it, adults, they are not familiar with the place, and the supply of food and grass and other logistical items is troublesome, and a long time is not good for them. "

Yang Shaogong sternly said: "Could it be that my lord wants to wait until they are familiar with each other before fighting them? This is the junction of Xu Kingdom and Nanyue. Why is there trouble in supplying food, grass, logistics and supplies? Do you not want to fight or dare not fight?" ?”

All the soldiers were startled when they saw Yang Shaogong suddenly turn his face, they looked at Yang Shaogong and then at Ying Luo with embarrassment, not knowing what to do.

Ying Luo thought to himself: "It seems that Yang Shaogong came from a bad person. The supervisor is clearly here to find fault. What is needed now is unity and stability in the army. I can't let the soldiers see the intensification of conflicts between me and him." '

Ying Luo smiled and said, "Master Yang has come from a long way. We won't talk about the war for the time being. Mr. Wang has already arranged a reception banquet. Please move forward."

Wang Tongqing looked at Ying Luo suspiciously: "The general didn't tell me to arrange a reception banquet, did he?"
Indeed, Ying Luo did not explain the arrangements for the reception banquet, he just said this to ease the tension.

"Is Master Yang's welcome banquet ready?"

Wang Tongqing is also a veteran in the officialdom, so he immediately followed suit and asked the masters around him.

"Go back to my lord, it should be ready soon, the next official will go over and have a look."

The master is also a veteran in the officialdom, he also knows how to adapt to the wind, so he found an excuse to go out and prepare.

Wang Tongqing looked at the back of the master who was walking away, and he couldn't forget to tell him: "Hurry up, the adults and I will be there soon."

Yang Shaogong's face finally softened...
