Chapter 384: Jia Xu Arrives
"General Yuwen, when do we leave?"
Gao Lan was dressed in neat armor, looking at Yuwen Chengdu who was not impatient beside him, and he was a little confused. He thought that he was already surrounded and about to fight to the death, but how could he still be so calm?
"Hahaha, just call me Chengdu. General Gao, there's no need to worry. My secret weapon is not ready yet." Yuwen Chengdu said with a smile.
"Secret weapon?" Gao Lan was a little confused. He remembered what he and Yuwen Chengdu should bring when they left the city, but he had no memory of the secret weapon at all.
"Report, General Yuwen, it's been completed!" Suddenly several messengers ran over to report.
"Very good, distribute it to the soldiers quickly!" Yuwen Cheng nodded with satisfaction.
"Chengdu, what does this mean?" Gao Lan looked at the soldiers who were distributing blue talisman papers everywhere with a confused look on his face.
"Is this a talisman? It actually contains the power of thunder and lightning?" Gao Lan took one from the soldier's hand with a look of surprise.
"Yes, I learned this from a Taoist priest. How impressive!" Yuwen Chengdu proudly showed Gao Lan the talisman he had learned from the immortal Nanhua.
When he met , Nanhua insisted that he learn any skills he wanted to learn, saying that he wanted to settle some cause and effect. In the end, he only learned how to make a thunder talisman.
However, the immortal Nanhua was quite satisfied. He said with a look of relief that he was destined to have a disaster, and that learning this thunder talisman was God's will. If he encountered any invincible monster in the future, he could use this thunder talisman to save his life.
Yuwen Chengdu didn't care much. He was one of the strongest people in the world. Even if Lu Bu wanted to kill him, it would depend on whether he was willing to die. Who could be an invincible monster?
However, Yuwen Chengdu did not reject Nanhua's kindness. After all, it was Nanhua's specialty. If you learn from him, you have to show some respect to him.
After he came to Youzhou, he studied this technology with many craftsmen and achieved the effect of mass production using the essence of heaven and earth. Although the gap between it and the talismans he drew himself was extremely large, the addition of lightning to weapons in battle was a significant improvement.
After distributing the talismans, Yuwen Chengdu led his troops forward in the dark and stopped not far from the Goryeo Right Army camp. They could only get so close in the dark, but if they got any closer they would risk being discovered.
What they had to wait for next was the signals from the other armies, waiting for Zhang He, Yan Liang, Liu Yu, and Wen Chou to arrive at the agreed location. Only then could everyone act together to achieve the best results.
On the other side, Zhang He and his cavalry stood in place, waiting. To be honest, the food problem of the frontier soldiers was solved very well. Basically, there were few people with night blindness, and they could see clearly at a considerable distance at night.
The dark clouds in the sky blocked the moonlight, making it pitch dark. However, Zhang He didn't care. The Korean camp was clearly visible in front of them. They were not worried about having no target. It was the Korean soldiers who should be worried about the darkness.
After he personally scouted the area, he confirmed that this area was a plain and was the only way for the Left Army Camp to provide support to the Front Army Camp, and it was also the best route for the Front Army Camp to retreat to the Left Army Camp.
What they had to do was to follow the defeated soldiers of the Goryeo front army camp and charge into the left army camp, creating as much chaos as possible to cover other troops in attacking the central army camp.
"It's not easy to fight!" Zhang He looked at the left army camp in the distance with a headache. The clouds covering the camp made him feel very difficult.
Many ants can kill an elephant. There are no less than 100,000 people in the Goryeo Left Army camp. It would be very difficult for him to defeat them with the less than 20,000 troops in his hands.
"What is the mood of those prisoners of war?" Zhang He turned around and asked.
"General, they are basically in a panic. As long as we untie them, they will definitely charge towards the camp." The deputy general nodded, indicating that there was no problem and everything was ready.
"Very good. The next step is to wait for the front army camp to start the battle." Zhang He slowly stroked the armor on his body. He would not fail again this time.
In the besieged city, Wen Chou and Xue Rengui were discussing the details. The troops they could lead were limited, and they had to leave enough forces to defend the city to prevent Yeon Gaesomun from taking advantage of the situation and attacking the city.
After all, there are still tens of thousands of people in the city. They can't just leave and put the people of the entire city in danger.
"You and I will attack from the east and west gates respectively, and our target will be the front camp of Goryeo. Together with the other troops, Goryeo will be surrounded by enemies and the people will be in chaos. We can then join forces and attack directly."
Xue Rengui gestured on the map. Being beaten and suffered losses was not his style. This time he wanted to make Yeon Gaesomun regret coming to Youzhou.
"General Xue is a talented person, Wen Chou should do his best!" Wen Chou had no objection. He was not as good as Yan Liang. Since Xue Rengui had a plan, he would just listen to Xue Rengui.
"It's a pity that there is no strategist to help in this battle, otherwise it would have been a lot more successful." Xue Rengui looked at the sky with regret. The moonlight was bright but was completely obscured by dark clouds. The effect of a night attack might not be very good.
If given a choice, he would prefer to attack in a relatively bright environment, after all, many accidents can easily happen in the dark.
"Haha, General Xue, don't worry, leave the changing of the situation to me." Just when Xue Rengui was feeling quite regretful, Jia Xu came to the conference room.
With Guo Hao's military order in hand, Jia Xu had an unimpeded journey and came straight to the conference hall.
With Wang Yue flying with him, he had to rush all the way and only just caught up.
Xue Rengui was overjoyed to see Jia Xu. Jia Xu had left a deep impression on him and was also the general's right-hand man. Now that he came to Youzhou, he was really overjoyed.
"Mr. Wenhe is here too! With your help, our army will have no problems in this battle!"
"Tonight the moon is bright but the sky is overcast. It is a good time to attack the camp. If I am right, the other generals should have arrived. Without further delay, the two generals should set off immediately. I will guard this city!"
Jia Xu was not polite and directly took over the command power, urging Xue Rengui and Wen Chou to set off.
His psychic talent allowed him to simulate other people's thoughts, and combined with the intelligence he had, he quickly calculated the positions of the various troops.
"Don't worry, sir. We have already made preparations for departure. We are just worried about the city defense. With you guarding the city, we can set off immediately. We will definitely not delay the opportunity to fight."
Xue Rengui quickly explained the plan of himself and others, and Jia Xu nodded repeatedly as he listened. It was slightly different from what he estimated, but generally the same.
"I didn't expect that Xue Rengui was actually such a talented general. He was almost buried." Jia Xu thought to himself, and raised his evaluation of Xue Rengui in his heart.
