"General, we must take back the places we have lost."
"Otherwise, Jiang Tian will become even more aggressive and press his advantage."
Chen Youliang nodded, flattening the silver cup in his hand.
"Jiang Tian wants to kill me, but I'm not Li Chuang or Zhang Shicheng."
He wants to kill me? He's too green.
Chen Youliang stood up and walked to the hand-drawn map behind him.
Everyone followed.
“Jiang Tian thinks he can rest easy just because he has taken over these places from me. I, Chen Youliang, am not someone to be intimidated.”
Chen Youliang pointed to Ye City: "Jiang Tian doesn't have many troops, only about 70,000 to 80,000 in total."
But he sent out these 70,000 to 80,000 people to occupy more than a dozen of my cities.
Jiang Tian doesn't have many troops in the Ye City area at all.
"Jiang Tian, that bastard is too arrogant."
With a swift motion, Chen Youliang thrust his sword toward the direction of Ye City on the map.
"The forces in the direction of Ye City are weak, so the army will launch a rapid assault on Ye City."
We utterly thrashed him.
Even if we can't destroy Jiang Tian, we can retreat or advance, defend or retreat as needed. The army will march north along the formidable Great Wall, then westward all the way to Nanpi.
Everyone gave a thumbs up when they heard that.
"General, that was a brilliant move."
"General, should we split our forces into three groups?"
"No need. All troops, follow me. This time, we're deploying our elite forces." Chen Youliang pulled the sword that was stuck in the direction of Ye City.
"This time I will only lead 100,000 elite troops in a day-and-night raid, and arrive at Ye City within two days."
"When my 100,000 elite troops arrive in Ye City, it will be Jiang Tian's death day."
"promise……"
Chen Youliang quickly mustered his troops.
“Gao Dengxian, Gao Shansong, Zhou Meng, Chen Lei…” Chen Youliang called out more than a dozen names in a row, “You will set off with me immediately. We will arrive in Yecheng the day after tomorrow night.”
"promise……"
"All the soldiers only carry three days' worth of rations. After three days, we will storm into Ye City. We will feast and drink to our hearts' content in Ye City."
"good……"
"What belongs to us, we will eventually take back."
"Jiang Tian is a bastard with big ambitions, but he doesn't have the ability to achieve them."
"He will eventually vomit up as much as he swallows."
...
That afternoon, the army set off in a grand procession.
Chen Youliang rode a tall warhorse, with a long line of cavalry behind him.
Chen Youliang pointed his whip forward sharply: "Full speed ahead, no one should fall behind."
The sound of horses' hooves clattering.
Banners fluttered in the wind.
Chen Youliang's troops had just left.
Inside Nanpi City.
A dark and windy night.
I could hear dogs barking in the deep alley.
The dog barked, one bark after another.
Crows rose and fell in the woods outside the city.
In the middle of the night, the cawing of crows carried far.
This makes Nanpi, this hell on earth, seem even more desolate.
Chen Youliang stored all the grain in Nanpi City.
Bang... Bang... Bang...
"The weather is dry, so be careful with fire."
"The weather is dry, so be careful with fire."
The night watchman struck his clapper while loudly reminding everyone.
A gentle evening breeze blew by, and the lantern in the night watchman's hand swayed in the wind.
Almost everyone was already asleep.
Only a few lights flickered inside the grain depot.
The night watchman's voice, "The weather is dry, be careful with fire," faded into the distance.
Just then, several dark figures darted out from the shadows.
They were all dressed in black night clothes.
However, beneath the night-clothes were an embroidered spring knife and a flying fish robe.
The dozen or so people looked around.
"I wonder what the situation is inside the grain depot." Before one person could finish speaking, a person suddenly rushed out of the grain depot.
The guy put his fingers in his mouth and imitated the hooting of an owl.
Soon, all of the dozen or so people moved closer.
"What's the situation inside the grain depot?"
"The grain transport officer and the grain escort officer are drinking. I reckon they're going to get completely drunk today."
"We'll be able to rush in soon."
Before he could finish speaking...
Two drunkards came out of the granary.
The two men stood outside the granary, took out their weapons, and released water.
The sound of rushing water continued for more than a minute before it stopped.
"Let's go back and keep drinking. We're going to drink until we're completely drunk today."
"Absolutely, let's drink to our hearts' content."
Just then, a guy rubbed his eyes.
"I think I just saw someone."
"There's no one here. The city gates are tightly closed, and the city is full of our Commander Chen's men. Even if there are people here, they're our own."
The two of them pulled up their pants.
Just then, two sharp sounds rang out, and two flashes of cold light appeared.
The two people who were just releasing water had their necks cut open.
Two soft, popping sounds.
Two streams of blood gushed from their necks, spraying out like fountains for four or five meters.
The two men wanted to speak, but no sound came out of their throats.
Air entered their throats through their blood vessels.
All they could make was a gurgling sound from their throats.
The two guys panicked instantly and quickly stretched out their hands to cover their necks.
Even so, blood continued to gush out from between their fingers.
The two guys were panicked; they couldn't breathe at all.
The two guys' faces turned bright red.
