Please ask me to be the emperor

"Junmen, Junmen, it's not good!"

"Why can't it be a little better if it's not good?" Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, had a terrible night.

First, the battle did not go well during the day. The officers and soldiers clearly had the advantage but were still unable to secure victory.

Then they encountered the reinforcements of the "shun thieves" and were about to completely surround them. However, a "rumor" came from nowhere and almost caused the entire army to collapse.

Finally, Liang Tingdong had an idea and planned to send Ran Tianlin personally to lead three thousand chieftains from Yangyang to attack the "Shun Bandits" reinforcements at night.

It was originally agreed to go out to fight at the ugly time, but he took advantage of the tiredness of the rebel army to attack, and solved the situation of the officers and soldiers being attacked from both sides in one fell swoop.

But no one expected that at three o'clock that night, before the officers and soldiers got up, they were killed by "thieves".

Especially the leader, who was tall and burly, holding a Qinglong Yanyue Sword, killed from south to north, and from north to south. The officers and soldiers had no enemy under their control, and it was like entering a deserted place.

The men and horses under his command were even more crazy. While killing people and setting fires, they beat their waist drums with mission, as if they were going to hold a grand bonfire dinner in the officers and soldiers camp, but everything turned upside down.

After finally driving this group of people out, the sky in the east was already dark, and the night attack on the reinforcements of the "Shun Thieves" came to nothing.

Liang Tingdong was too old to stay up all night. He just fell into a deep sleep, but unexpectedly he was woken up again.

"What on earth is going on? Can the sky still fall?" Liang Tingdong couldn't help but asked anxiously while holding back the discomfort.

Do you know what it means to respect the elderly and love the young? Even though I am very old, I am not allowed to have a peaceful sleep!

"The sky is not falling, but the ground is sinking!" The man smiled bitterly and said, "Junmen, just go and take a look and you will know!"

"Let's go!" Liang Tingdong yawned and said coldly, "I want to see what this guy is doing!"

When Liang Tingdong climbed up the watchtower tremblingly, he was shocked.

What do you think?

It turns out that the rebel camp appeared outside the officers and soldiers camp at some point, but it was only two miles away!

You must know that when the two sides faced each other yesterday, the officers and soldiers were not only arrayed two miles away from the camp, but also more than three miles away from the "thief"'s crossing point.

If not, how could this area accommodate nearly 100,000 people fighting?

"What's going on?" Liang Tingdong was surprised and almost thought the thief had cast some evil spell.

"Military Gate, take a closer look!" The man pointed at the long trench wall behind the rebel camp. "These thieves actually dug in overnight and set up camp here!"

"Zhang Nichu, Zhang Nichu, what on earth do you want to do!" Liang Tingdong felt shuddering and quickly ordered, "Send orders to the other generals to come over and discuss this matter together!"

Not long after, Shaanxi Commander-in-Chief Zuo Guangxian, Gansu Commander-in-Chief Liu Shaozong, Lintao Commander-in-Chief Zhang Yingchang, commander-in-chief Ran Tianlin and deputy commander-in-chief Ge Lin rushed over in a hurry!

"Everyone didn't sleep well last night, right?" Liang Tingdong greeted him gently, then pointed to the rebel camp outside and said, "This group of thieves didn't sleep well last night either. Take a look, what does this mean?"

"This 'shun thief' has such a big appetite!" Everyone stretched their necks and looked at it for a long time. Unexpectedly, Zuo Guangxian, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Province, suddenly changed his expression and said, "Junmen, this guy wants to swallow us whole!"

"Nonsense!" Before Zuo Guangxian finished speaking, Liu Shaozong couldn't help but refute, "The art of war says: if you are ten, you are to surround an enemy, if you are five, you are to attack it, if you double it, you are divided. If the enemy is small, you can fight it, and if you have fewer enemies, you can escape."

"Now our army has 60,000 people, but the thieves are less than 40,000, and their men and horses are no more than half of our army."

"That Zhang Niqu was able to persist for so long yesterday, he is already a genius. If his heart is not as strong as a snake swallowing an elephant, he is not afraid of Feng Da's tongue flashing and his appetite bursting his belly!"

"That's right, that's right!" Others couldn't help but nodded, "In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are nothing!"

What a joke, even if he annexed 40,000 to 60,000, he wouldn't be afraid of overstretching himself to death!

"Haha!" Zuo Guangxian couldn't help but sneered when he saw this, "Yesterday's fierce battle has proven that our army cannot break through the thieves' defense line relying on the trench walls!"

"What if the thieves extend the trench further and surround our camp?"

"How dare you, these thieves!" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and were suddenly speechless in shock.

"What if he draws water from the Chan River again and pours it into the trench?"

"What if he takes advantage of the opportunity to seize the city of Xi'an while besieging our army?"

"What if he builds another dam to store water and diverts water to attack?"

Zuo Guang, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Province, was aggressive and asked questions at every step. Within three steps, everyone was so frightened that they retreated. Only a "pop" was heard, but everyone's back hit the guardrail of the watchtower.

"What should we do?" Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, was also panicked. Sixty thousand people were going to be made dumplings by 40,000 people. That was really outrageous!

"Instead of letting them divert water to attack, we should divert water to them first!" Zuo Guangxian hesitated after hearing the words, "Anyway, we have 60,000 people, and the thieves are only 40,000. The advantage is mine!"

"His Royal Highness King Shun, your skills are really amazing!" "Crashing General" Li Zicheng, "Living Cao Cao" Luo Rucai, "Guo Tianxing" Zhang Tianlin, "Hundred One Hundred Thousand" Ma Jinzhong, "White Robe General" Xue Rengui, "Neat King" Zhang Fatty Liu Guoneng and the others had already admired Zhang Shun.

In front of them, Xu Quan, Wen Tingxu and Zhang Shifan, two of the "Three Friends of the Valley", were directing the brigade of Ding Zhuang to desperately dig the soil in front of them.

It turned out that Zhang Shun was really thinking about how to defeat the enemy last night. Unexpectedly, "Invading General" Li Zicheng mentioned the matter of Ding Zhuang in the rebel army, which suddenly made Zhang Shun worry about how to defeat the enemy.

The characteristics of officers and soldiers are that they are numerous and mixed, while the characteristics of the rebel army are that they have few but elite soldiers.

When the two sides faced each other, because the officers and soldiers had enough manpower to attack the flanks of the rebels, the rebels were unable to take advantage of their small number of troops.

Therefore, Zhang Shun used some of his men to dig earthen walls and trenches to protect his flanks.

That being the case, why not go a step further and directly use a large number of earth walls and trenches to deal with the officers and soldiers on the opposite side?

Isn't it just digging earth?

Zhang Shun was an engineer in his previous life. When he thought that he could use his old skills to defeat the officers and soldiers, he was overjoyed and confident. This was when he made the previous alliance with the rebel generals.

Because he really saw the dawn of victory!

After the weapons and armor were distributed among the rebels, there were 20,000 men ready to join the battle at any time, and a number of strong men and women were also mobilized. Zhang Shun mobilized 40,000 men from the camp in one go to be responsible for digging the soil.

Do you think "60,000 vs. 40,000, I have the advantage"?

In fact, 80,000 vs. 60,000, the advantage is mine!
