Chapter 155 Martyrs Memorial Service

"Commander, for the more than 5000 brothers who died, do you want to hold a memorial service for them?" Yuan Shijie asked after walking out of the room.

"It's done, of course it has to be done. It must be grand. They died to defend Pingyang City, and they sacrificed their lives for the empire. They are all warriors of the empire." Get it done.

"Well, I'll make arrangements now, and we must let the dead soldiers go away in a good manner." Yuan Shijie said.

"Go."

Cheng Cheng handed over the matter of organizing the memorial service to him, and then rushed back to the City Lord's Mansion with a sad face.

The next day, the memorial service for the [-] heroic soldiers who died was held in the form of public sacrifices. All the soldiers in the city buried their heads in silent mourning. Loud and loud on this solemn day.

One after another, the generals in the army went to the huge tombstone to pay homage. It was not until Yuan Shijie returned from paying homage that Cheng Cheng walked to the tombstone, poured three big bowls of wine and sprinkled them one by one in front of the tombstone. He took out the long sword worn in front of his waist, stuck it on the ground, and said in a voice like Hong Zhong: "Brothers, you go well, I swear to your undead in the name of the God of War, I will cut off the old thief Helian Wencheng. Head, come to pay homage to you at the monument."

"Brothers, let's go!"

The tens of thousands of soldiers in the rear shouted at the same time, the sound shook the sky, and the whole army mourned.

"I want to lead the army to fight in person to avenge my brothers!" Cheng Sheng shouted after turning around all of a sudden.

"Commander!" Yuan Shijie felt that something was wrong. Cheng Cheng was the commander of the entire army of Pingyang City, and also the acting city lord of Pingyang City. If something happened at this time, Pingyang City would undoubtedly be destroyed.

"Needless to say, I have already decided on this matter. When the memorial service is over in two days, I will personally lead the troops to fight!" Among the [-] soldiers who went out to attack the enemy's rear, nearly [-] were members of the Heroes Association itself. Member, it made his chest blaze with anger.Cheng Cheng has made up his mind, and no one can change it. He wants to use the weapon in his hand to drink the blood of the enemy himself, and avenge the dead brothers.

Cheng Cheng said this, and Yuan Shijie couldn't dissuade him anymore, but his eyebrows were tightly knit together, knowing in his heart the importance of Cheng Cheng to Pingyang City, so no surprises could happen.

This kind of action aroused a raging fighting spirit in the whole army, the desire to avenge the dead brothers.The hope was also extremely strong, and the audience was completely enveloped in grief and chill, shocking the world.

This is what Cheng Cheng wants. What the army fears most is lack of fighting spirit and fighting spirit.Facing the [-] troops outside the city, the morale of the army was greatly reduced, and only hatred could inspire their fighting spirit, so Cheng Cheng would impassionedly boost their morale.The results achieved were also beyond expectations. He wanted to lead the soldiers full of hatred to defeat the enemy's prestige.

"Commander, you can't leave Pingyang City right now, and you should leave it to the last general to lead the army into battle." Yuan Shijie said impatiently after leaving the huge tombstone of the martyrs.In his heart, Cheng Sheng is by no means as simple as a cousin-in-law, but an excellent commander, an indispensable leader, even if he dies, he cannot be allowed to take risks.

In the group, only Yuan Shijie, his cousin, and Zhu, Huo, Pang, and Niu were all Cheng Cheng's confidantes.

"The big man keeps his promises. If you spit, you will smash a hole. Don't worry, I won't die until the head of the old dog Helian is not cut off." Cheng Cheng comforted him.

"Brother Cheng, I think you don't want to go to war anymore, just leave these matters to the brothers." Niu Ren patted his chest, and he knew that with his straightforward personality, no accidents could happen to Cheng Cheng now, and the whole city was counting on him to come take care of.

"Brother Cheng, it's really inappropriate for you to lead troops into battle now. I haven't figured out how the brothers were ambushed and wiped out by the entire army last time. If you rush to fight again now, you may be ambushed again." Zhuge Hua thought of the more than 5000 soldiers last time. The army was ambushed, and the whole army was wiped out. If the soldiers were ambushed again this time, the consequences would be disastrous.

Hearing the news of the annihilation of the entire army, Cheng Cheng already guessed that there were internal thieves in the army, otherwise the marching route would never have been.But he didn't make it public, only his confidants knew about it.

"That's right Brother Cheng, the traitor hasn't been found out yet, and we need to wait a little longer. It won't be too late to send troops after the traitor is found out." As if afraid that others would not see him, Pang Jie skipped a few times and said.

Hearing the word inner thief, Cheng Cheng's eyes flickered brightly, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "There's no need to say any more, I've already decided not to change it."

Seeing Cheng Cheng's tough attitude, everyone didn't continue, but there was a look of worry on everyone's brows.

"Commander!" Seeing Cheng Cheng walk into the room, Yuan Ping quickly got out of bed and shouted respectfully.

Cheng Cheng stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and asked with a smile, "How is the injury?"

"There's nothing serious, you can fight and kill the enemy at any time." He patted himself on the chest, as if to prove that he was almost fine.

"Okay, we're going to have a strategy meeting in a while, and we'll have a meeting together when the injury recovers." He said with a smile.

"Yes, Commander!" Yuan Ping agreed.

Cheng Cheng got up and wanted to leave, but suddenly he paused, as if remembering something, he turned around and asked, "By the way, when were you transferred to Pingyang City?"

Hearing this question, Yuan Ping's expression froze for a moment, then he returned to his natural state and said, "Commander, I have been transferred to Pingyang City for three years."

"Oh, you rest first, remember to hold a strategy meeting later." Nodding his head, Cheng Cheng gave some instructions, then turned and left the room.

He was still in the military command room, but the two brothers of the Yan family were missing. Yan Dong was unfortunately killed, and Yan Bei had left Pingyang City a few days ago to borrow reinforcements from the Shangguan family. Did not go to Nanyan City.

"Last time the enemy army was ambushed and the entire army was wiped out. This time there must be no more mistakes, otherwise Pingyang City will never be able to hold on." Standing above the sand table, whether it was intentional or unintentional, Cheng Sheng never Mention the matter of thieves.

"Yes, we must pay back the blood debt from that old dog Helian Wencheng!" Niu Ren said with his round copper bell eyes.

Cheng Cheng picked up his baton, pointed to a small path outside Pingyang City, and said to the army stationed in Luofeng Grassland: "Last time, General Yuan has mentioned five possible sneak attack routes, and this one is the most difficult and dangerous. Only by crossing this hilly land can we go around to the rear of the enemy army. The enemy army would never expect us to take this road to make a surprise attack, so this time we must be surprised."

"But this road is too difficult to walk, I'm afraid it will hinder the march." Yuan Shijie said.

"Because the road is difficult to walk, the enemy army will be paralyzed. We sent two groups of troops to march towards Songlin Slope along the direction of Luofeng Town to attract the attention of the enemy troops, while another group of troops secretly went around here. There is a way to detour to the enemy's rear and stab the knife in the back." Pointing to the terrain in the sand table, Cheng Cheng said seriously.After finishing speaking, he asked Yuan Ping, "General Yuan, what do you think?"

"Very good, so the formation of doubts has diverted the attention of the enemy army. Stabbing the enemy's rear will definitely cause heavy damage to the enemy army." Looking at the route in the sand table and thinking about this strategy, Yuan Ping felt that It can be regarded as a trick to hurt the enemy.

"Do you have any better suggestions?" After finishing speaking, Cheng Cheng asked everyone.

"No!" Everyone shook their heads.

"Well, let's follow this strategy. This time, I will personally lead the army to avenge the dead soldiers. General Yuan Shijie, you will guard Pingyang City. You must not let the enemy take the opportunity to destroy the city." Reiterating the matter of going to war again, Cheng Sheng said.

"Commander, let me also fight together, to avenge the dead brothers." Yuan Ping asked Ying.

"The wound on your body hasn't healed yet, so you should stay in the city." Cheng Cheng shook his head and said.

"Commander, my injury is no longer serious, please let me fight." Yuan Ping said eagerly after he punched himself twice.

Seeing Yuan Ping's eagerness to avenge his dead brothers, Cheng Cheng smiled happily and said, "Okay, you and I will lead five thousand elite soldiers around the dangerous road to the enemy's rear. Niu Ren, I have a task for you, which is to lead two thousand soldiers to the enemy's rear. The army swaggers to the direction of Luofeng Town, but they must not enter Songlin Slope, go for a walk and turn back, you know?"

"Understood, the task must be completed." Niu Renwen replied in a low voice.

"Okay, the tactics have been decided first, and we will dispatch troops as soon as tomorrow's mourning day for the dead soldiers is over." With a long breath, Cheng Cheng let everyone in the large military command room leave.

Strangely, no one mentioned the inside thief, and the tactical discussion seemed surprisingly smooth.
