Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 947 The rumors are so bizarre

"Who can explain to me what is going on? Then how did Chen Shouyi defeat Murong Ren in a few days? Didn't he increase his troops one after another and stationed nearly [-] troops? Moreover, the two sides were still fighting in the field. ! Besides, how did you get this [-] enemy-defeating power?"

In the spacious hall, the guests and guests were clearly distinguished. Shi Le sat high in the hall, looking down at the crowd and speaking lightly, showing his majesty.

In front of him, the civil and military ranks were quite large-scale, unlike ordinary grass-roots teams, and the leader of the civilian side was Zhang Bin.

Faced with Shi Le's inquiry, Zhang Bin also took the initiative to stand up and said: "The time is too short, and we still can't figure out the situation. Not only is the fighting time in the north short, but the time we have to confirm the information is also short. I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it in a short time." After getting an accurate conclusion, I just sorted it out a little and sent it directly. This must have been combined with the information sent by Murong's department. I think the theory of fifty thousand came from this."

As Zhang Bin finished speaking, a person stood up behind him. It was actually Nie Daoren. He took out a letter from his bosom, unfolded it and said, "Commander Qi, I have some information here." As he spoke, he wanted to submit it. , he also knows that although Shi Le is now trying to learn to read, but after all, he is old and the effect is not very good, so he still needs to be read by others. When this information is sent up, it must be handed over to the attendants around Shi Le. The attendant read it softly.

So after handing it over, he took two steps back and waited in place.

However, many people around looked at Zhang Bin in front and Nie Daoren behind, and they all tasted a little different. There were even a few generals who were obviously white-skinned people, looking back and forth at the two of them with playful eyes. , smiled but said nothing.

In fact, at least half of the people present could guess why Nie Daoren was able to come up with information that Zhang Bin didn't know. This was still in the Buddhist temple. There were still Buddhist temples in Youzhou, even though they were quite fond of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples. The ostracized Daijun did not prohibit preaching, but it only required reporting and was subject to many suppressions and controls.

Not to mention there are many temples in other places in Youzhou.

Chen Zhi now defeated Wang Jun and occupied the counties of Fanyang and Yan. He began to sort out his connections, place people, and transfer files. At the same time, he had to personally lead the army in the northern war. Everything was complicated, and he had no spare energy or manpower to clean it up. Regarding religious issues, most of the temple organizations in Youzhou still remain as they are, so they can naturally pass on the news.

However, facing the strange looks from everyone, neither Nie Daoren nor Zhang Bin seemed to notice at all, just waiting for Shi Le above to hear the news.

According to the original example, usually at this time, Shi Le would ask the attendant to whisper a few sentences in his ear to get a general understanding, but this time he waved his hand abnormally and said directly: "There is no need to avoid anything, just read it out, let's All of you, please listen."

When the guards next to Shi Le heard this, they were stunned, and immediately promised and read in public: "Three days ago, Chen Jun left the fortress and led five thousand troops, mostly infantry, outside the upper valley and on the grassland of Sabu. , encountering Murong Ren’s soldiers and horses, the two sides fought, and some of them won or lost. Later, Murong Ren’s soldiers fought and retreated, and Chen’s soldiers and horses pursued them all the way. During this period, they encountered seven or eight times, each of them fought, and there was no winner or lose..."

Hearing this, everyone present cheered up and felt something was wrong. Even Zhang Bin was no exception. Nie Daoren, who brought the news, had obviously read the content in advance. At this time, there was no He showed a look of surprise and just waited quietly.

However, there are many war leaders and strategists in this room, and they all know the situation on the battlefield quite well. Just listening to this description, you know that the so-called fighting and retreating is actually introducing the enemy step by step. In the encirclement, that's why they can continue to "neither win nor lose". Everyone can even imagine that in many cases, Murong Ren's soldiers and horses may have suffered a lot of losses and suffered a lot, using this as bait to relax the enemy. His vigilance leads the enemy to him step by step.

Otherwise, after a few times, if the losses of both sides are close, after a few times, Chen Zhi will be wary after weighing the situation, feeling that the investment and the return are not proportional, and stop the march. "However, Chen Shouyi must be good at military tactics, otherwise he wouldn't have won many battles since he was born as a prefect, without ever being defeated, and all of them were big wins. The results were astonishing. How could he not see that this was a bait trap? Why didn't you stop? What's even more shocking is that the result of this battle was a complete defeat for Murong Ren. Could it be that something happened in the middle? Could it be that Chen Shouyi took advantage of his plan?"

Everyone was thinking in their hearts, even Shi Le showed doubts, and then they all pricked up their ears and listened carefully to the content behind——

"...One day of fierce fighting, the Chen tribe stepped into the encirclement of Murong Ren's tribe. The two sides fought, with a total of about [-] troops. Murong's tribe was defeated, and Murong Ren was seriously injured. He fled in defeat, and was pursued by Chen's tribe. They entered the depths of the grassland. Unknown Details.”

……

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned, and then they couldn't laugh or cry, looking at Nie Daoren in a dumbfounded way.

The information you revealed is not much different from what we know. At most, it adds some prerequisites and clarifies the pre-war configuration. But other than that, how will the two sides fight?How did Chen Bu win?Why win?Why did Murong's department clearly lay out layers of traps and induce them step by step, but in the end they failed miserably?Also, what about the 5 people promised?

None of these answers were answered. Even Shi Le was a little annoyed and gave Nie Daoren a hard look.

The latter didn't panic and just said: "Everyone, there will be more later."

Sure enough, the guard did not stop, but what he said next was not about Chen Zhi's pursuit of Murong Ren's tribe. Instead, he talked about some scattered rumors and speculations——

"It is said that the battle between the two sides was at a pass. Murong's tribe had ambushed in advance and charged from a high position, while Chen's tribe had many infantry and only a few cavalry, which was difficult to stop. However, some people say that Chen Zhi personally went to the altar to cast spells. , causing thunder to fall, directly destroying Murong's troops and horses, causing heavy damage to them and instantly defeating the army. After several thunders, they were unable to survive and fled in all directions. Murong's commander, Murong Ren, was also struck by the thunder and was deeply affected. He was seriously injured and fell off his horse, leaving Murong's tribe leaderless and dispersed, without the ability to fight back."

After reading this, everyone in the hall looked at each other, and even Zhang Bin looked shocked. It was obvious that he had made many calculations and guesses in advance, but in the end, he never expected that Chen Zhi won because of the help of thunder.

"That's nonsense!" Even Shi Le frowned and rebuked Nie Daoren directly: "When the two armies fight, they rely on clever calculations and command, they fight on military means, they rely on swords, guns, soldiers and horses, why should they still rely on Sky thunder? It’s simply ridiculous!”

Although most people at this time had some thoughts about gods and ghosts, they still instinctively rejected it when it came to military conquests on the battlefield. Moreover, Shi Le had been marching for many years and experienced countless battles, big and small. He was covered with old wounds. He had never seen any formations before. I have never heard of anyone being able to cause thunder to explode in front of an array!
However, Nie Daoren stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Actually, it's not ridiculous, but you need to think carefully. Could it be that the commander has forgotten the single-shooter cannon?"
