Chapter 1416 Angry Cai Cheng
Cai Cheng's eyes swept over everyone present, his face showing dissatisfaction, without any concealment.
"Sir, tomorrow we will attack the city. I will lead the army to the top of the city and break through Fengyu City!" After a long time, a general finally spoke.
"Do you dare to issue a military order?" Cai Cheng said in a deep voice.
"This..." The general was speechless for a moment, hesitating, and did not dare to agree.
"Humph!" Cai Cheng snorted coldly.
If it was yesterday, whether it was him or the generals present, I'm afraid they would dare to issue this military order, because their offensive yesterday was too smooth, but today is different. Today, their attacks were frequently blocked, the number of times they rushed to the top of the city was significantly reduced, and the casualties were significantly increased. In this case, who dares to guarantee that they will be able to capture the top of the city tomorrow?
"Sir, calm down." Zhao Qiushan stood up and said, "In my opinion, although the defenders in the city performed better than yesterday, this does not affect the overall situation. We still have the initiative and advantage. If everything goes according to plan, we will definitely be able to take down Fengyu City!"
"City Lord Zhao is right. There are only so many defenders guarding the city. Even if they performed better today, their overall strength is still not as good as ours. Although according to the current situation, Fengyu City cannot be taken down in a short time, the final result will not change."
"I think so too."
......
After Zhao Qiushan, many generals stood up to express their opinions. Among the people present, only Zhao Qiushan was a civil official. Originally, these military generals did not have much good feelings for this civil official, but Zhao Qiushan's "standing up" at this time still made them have some changes in their impression of Zhao Qiushan.
The anger on Cai Cheng's face slowly dissipated, and the whole person seemed to have regained his calm.
Originally, Cai Cheng was prepared for a protracted war, but yesterday's siege was too smooth, which made him feel that it might not take that long for him to capture Fengyu City, which made him dissatisfied with today's offensive.
Thinking about it carefully, it is really no big deal. As everyone said, they still have the advantage now, and it is only a matter of time before they capture Fengyu City.
"Wu Guang! Explain to me about the trebuchet. Where are my trebuchets?" Cai Cheng suppressed his anxious mood and asked a general with a cold face.
Wu Guang is the commander of the trebuchet camp. If the trebuchet had not disappeared inexplicably, today's siege would not be so difficult, and the casualties would not be so great. Therefore, in Cai Cheng's view, Wu Guang should be held primarily responsible for today's unfavorable siege.
"My Lord." Hearing that he was named by Cai Cheng, Wu Guang stepped out and clasped his hands to Cai Cheng, his face nervous and terrified: "Those trebuchets, they, they disappeared out of thin air."
"Disappeared out of thin air?" Cai Cheng's tone became even lower: "Do you think I will believe it? Do you think everyone will believe it?"
"General Wu, just tell the truth, don't hide it anymore."
"Yes, the excuse you found is so poor, as an adult, do you think we are all fools?"
"At this time, General Wu, just tell the truth."
......
Seeing that Cai Cheng pointed his spearhead at the chief of the trebuchet camp, other generals echoed.
"My Lord, those trebuchets really disappeared out of thin air. We didn't even see an enemy approaching those trebuchets, and those trebuchets disappeared." The chief of the trebuchet camp tried hard to defend himself.
He was telling the truth, but no one at the scene, including Cai Cheng, believed him.
"From today on, you are no longer the commander of the catapult camp. Go back and reflect on yourself!" Cai Cheng said coldly.
"Sir, I am telling the truth." The general cried out for justice.
However, Cai Cheng did not want to pay attention to him at all. He waved his hand and two soldiers came forward and carried the commander of the catapult camp out of the tent.
Since he was no longer a general, he was naturally not qualified to stay in this tent.
"Listen to me, everyone. From now on, whoever lets him do this will be a cook!" Cai Cheng said coldly.
"Yes, sir." Everyone responded in unison.
"Okay, let's talk about the night attack tonight." Cai Cheng said.
Everyone was slightly stunned, but then they understood what Cai Cheng meant. Cai Cheng was planning to secretly attack the city at night, using the cover of darkness. This is a way. It may not succeed, but it's always right to try.
On the other side, in Wu Fan's room, he and Wu Ya were chatting casually. The atmosphere was quite relaxed. They seemed to have forgotten that Fengyu City was still under siege by the rebels. Wu Fan was confident that he could defeat the rebels, while Wu Ya simply trusted Wu Fan, so she didn't worry too much.
"Wu Fan, do you think it's time for us to use the reinforcements from Shanling Pass?" Wu Ya asked casually.
In the past two days, the teleportation array has been running non-stop, and the troops from Shanling Pass have been transported here continuously. In the palace, there have been 30,000 to 40,000 Shanling Pass defenders gathered.
"Don't rush yet." Wu Fan said: "The city at the top of the scene can still hold on, and the troops at the city head are getting better and better. This defensive battle in Fengyu City is also a good exercise for them, so don't rush to take action. Help each other, and then let Pei Yu's men take action when the situation is critical or at a critical moment. My idea is that if the defenders of Shanling Pass don't take action, once they take action, the outcome will definitely be decided in a battle!"
Pei Yu's army has good combat power, but the rebels in the city have a numerical advantage. They will even have reinforcements arriving continuously. Therefore, Wu Fan must kill them with one strike and not give the rebels outside the city a chance to breathe. Chance.
"Okay, it's all up to you." Wu Ya said, "I'm just asking casually. You have the final say in everything regarding the attack and defense of Fengyu City."
"You, the hands-off shopkeeper, did it more thoroughly than I did." Wu Fan said with a smile.
"He who can do it should work harder." Wu Ya also said with a smile.
Just as Wu Fan was about to say something, a sudden suction force came from him, and he completely disappeared from Wu Ya's face.
Although she had experienced it once and was somewhat mentally prepared, when Wu Ya saw Wu Fan suddenly disappear from her eyes again, she was still a little dazed, and the smile on her face froze for an instant.
After a while, Wu Ya came to her senses and looked at the empty room. She rubbed her cheeks to make her expression return to normal. Then she said loudly to the door: "Come here! Bring all the memorials on my table." , I’m going to spend the night here tonight!”
"Yes." A voice echoed from outside the house.
