Projection Upgrade Tour

The news was spread in the shortest possible time.

Then during this period of time, Liu Chu had a bad luck and enjoyed extraordinary treatment.

Wherever he went, there were always people who glared at him as a traitor and a sinner.

Even the original friend did not dare to continue to communicate with him on the bright side.

What else can Liu Chu say?

Can only smile.

He's become a typical scapegoat.

In fact, there are many smart people around, and naturally they know what is going on.

But what if you know.

Do they dare to go to Chen An's face?

Chen An has done nothing in the past two years.

While persevering, he was arranging the fields while sorting out the internal affairs. The disobedient generals and captains in the past two years did not know how many they killed.

Even if they didn't kill them, they were all demoted to the back of the farm in the end.

At the beginning, there were still people who were not satisfied, so they asked various connections to write a letter, asking His Majesty to punish him.

According to the thinking of most people, it is a proper way to intervene in military power if you privately kill a general in the army and arrange for someone close to you to go to the top.

If His Majesty knew about it, they should have condemned you.

Even if you don't commit the crime, at least you are removed and replaced by a commander, which is quite reasonable, right?

However it didn't.

No matter how excessive what Chen An did here, Shengjing seemed to have not seen it at all. At most, there was an occasional messenger who came over and urged a few words.

and then?

Gone.

In this case, who can disobey the command of the coach?

Not even to persuade.

Liu Chu dared to persuade in front of Chen An because his relationship with Chen An was extraordinary, so he dared to say a few words.

But other unrelated people dare to go up and force, believe it or not, the head will fall to the ground for you tomorrow?

In this case, even if they knew that Liu Chu was just a scapegoat, they could only focus their scolding on Liu Chu.

"This day, when will it be the end?"

The generals and captains everywhere sighed, and they all seemed eager to go out immediately and fight with those Song people.

But soon, the sound disappeared completely.

Because Chen An came out.

Chen An was wearing a uniform, kind-hearted and kind-hearted, and looked very amiable, and began to check everywhere.

His appearance is very kind, but it is only appearance.

As for actually.

Rows of heads are still hanging in the camp outside.

So everyone shut up obediently.

Chen An is still defending quietly, practicing internal strength with peace of mind, and practicing hard.

He looked like he wasn't in a hurry at all.

But he is not in a hurry, some people are anxious for him.

In the distance, in Mingzhou County.

In the spacious camp, a young man was sitting in it, discussing with an old man.

If Chen An was here, he would definitely find that the two of them looked familiar.

One is the King of Thailand, and the other is Liu Sheng, who had previously served as an envoy to Dahua.

In the room, the two of them were discussing, but they didn't seem to be very happy, so that they were all frowning.

"Your Majesty has sent someone to urge us to advance."

Liu Sheng sighed and said, "This year's domestic catastrophe, it is said that there have been disasters in many places, and the grains have not been harvested. It is really unsupportable."

"It is said that a minister in the court has proposed to withdraw troops and stop the Northern Expedition, but it was temporarily suppressed by His Majesty."

"There is also news from the Lone King's insider."

King Tai's expression was tangled, and he was also helpless at the moment: "They asked when the king would start."

"That Chen Guogong is too strict in governing the army. If they don't start again, I'm afraid they won't have a chance in the future."

"Ugh......."

The two looked at each other, and both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

After two full years of stalemate, not only Chen An was particularly uncomfortable, but they were also the same here.

Thinking back two years ago, how high-spirited they were when they just attacked.

The Song Kingdom sent 300,000 troops, all of whom had trained many elite divisions, with extraordinary combat power.

The King of Thailand himself is the prince of Dahua, and he has the righteousness in his body, and he has a relationship in all aspects.

At the beginning, how smooth their party was, wherever the army went, everywhere looked down at the wind.

The King of Thailand even personally came forward and recruited many generals and captains in Dahua, so that in a short period of time, everything went so smoothly.

The Dahua family warmly welcomes Master Wang.

Under Cheng Zheng's rule, those aristocratic families were themselves suppressed, and they were regarded as the unwelcome group of people.

In the past, it was easy to say, but under Cheng Zheng's governance, many of their preferential treatments were cancelled and many interests were suppressed. Naturally, they did not support Cheng Zheng so much, and they were dissatisfied.

On the one hand, there is dissatisfaction in his heart, and on the other hand, there is the King of Thailand, the wise king, to win over.

Therefore, in the early days, quite a number of people moved closer to them and actively sought refuge.

Everything was so smooth back then.

So that Cheng Ming and Liu Sheng are extremely optimistic, and they may be successful within a year and a half if they are serious.

This was especially true after the northern state of Lu officially dispatched troops.

It is unceremonious to say that before Chen An came over, everything went very smoothly for them.

But when Chen An came, everything was over.

When Chen An first came, they didn't care.

After all, a hairy boy doesn't know how to lead troops to fight.

The King of Thailand himself has a huge influence in Nanfang, and has many followers, so he can easily influence many generals in Dahua.

In addition, the Song Dynasty is all elites, and there is support from the local aristocratic family, even if it is 300,000 to 400,000, there is nothing to be afraid of.

They were even looking forward to it at that time. They had already contacted many people, and they were just waiting for a backstab at Chen An at the critical moment.

And then no more.

Two years have passed, and the people they contacted have not yet had the chance to stab them in the back.

Because Chen An didn't come out at all.

It's like a tortoise with a shriveled head, only caring about his tortoise shell and ignoring everything outside.

You are arrogant and you are arrogant, and I will guard my fort.

It was such a simple and unpretentious move that King Tai and Liu Sheng were helpless.

They are the offensive side.

Since ancient times, attacking fortifications has always been the hardest.

Not to mention that Chen An deliberately gave up all the counties that were not conducive to defense in order to facilitate defense, leaving only a few empty cities for them.

There are terrains that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are forts at a glance, and they have no way to start.

An army attack?

Please, there are more people on the other side than you.

Chen An's army may not be as elite as the Song Dynasty, but the figure of 400,000 is real, and it is not an army that lacks clothing and food.

On the contrary, they are in the territory of Dahua, and the logistics are very sufficient.

In order to facilitate the supply, the other party also deliberately left those places where the logistics line is long and narrow, which is not conducive to the supply, and made it clear that they will spend a long time with you.

How can this be fought?

At first, King Thai led people to play tentatively a few times.

Then he didn't dare to fight again.

Can't move at all.

If it is true that the fortresses are fought like this, I am afraid that they have not yet reached Chen An, and their own people are almost dead.

Of course this is not possible.

Even if the King of Thailand was willing, Liu Sheng would definitely not be able to consume Da Song's soldiers like this.

A hard attack is definitely not going to work.

Then the inside and outside should be combined.

Then a new problem arises.

Even if it is a combination of the inside and the outside, there should always be a suitable opportunity.

Just like before, the most skilled move that the King of Thailand played was to make people turn against each other when the two armies clashed, and to give the opponent a fatal blow at the most critical time.

The effect of this trick is very good, and it always succeeds.

But how can you cooperate with the inside and outside when the opposite side does not have a decisive battle in the city at all?

Collusion with people to open the city gate at a critical moment.

Let's not talk about the specific difficulty of this matter, even if the city gate is really opened, it is impossible to easily attack it.

Not so easy.

Dahua's strength is still above Da Song.

Even if it is a complete field battle, the Dahua side may not necessarily lose.

In the battle of defending the city, when the strength of the two sides is not disparate, could it be possible that you can immediately kill all the people in the city by opening a city gate?

No such thing.

Not to mention that in this tough battle, the city gates are usually sealed directly. Even if no one is disturbed, it takes a long time to clean up the city gates in a serious manner.

Your group of rebels can really fight back while clearing the city gates and easily lead people into the city?

In the final analysis, it is not impossible to do this, but it can only play a considerable role when the strength of the two sides is disparate and the strength of the defending side is weak, and it can only rely on the city wall to barely defend.

If you do this at the rest of the time, there is a high probability that it will be sent directly to the head.

So King Tai and Liu Sheng were blocked like this.

No way, siege has been an unsolvable problem since ancient times.

In a situation where the technology is not much different, the strength is not much different, and the opponent's logistics are sufficient, it is very difficult to attack the city.

The fortresses that look almost indestructible are the first obstacles in front of the two kings of Thailand.

And that's just the beginning of the trouble.

As time passed, the King of Thailand was shocked to find that the number of people he could influence in the Dahua Army was drastically decreasing.

There are many reasons for the decrease. Part of it is that Chen An arranged to do logistics in the rear, and part of it is that he was killed because of disobedience.

As for the most, because he wanted to cooperate with the King of Thailand, he repeatedly proposed to take the initiative to attack, and even contradicted in public, and then was directly killed by Chen An.

In just two years, most of those who originally had their hearts toward the King of Thailand disappeared.

The remaining part saw that the King of Thailand had made no progress, and most of them retreated. Although they were still in contact with the King of Thailand on the bright side, they actually became unpredictable.

And as time goes on, the bad news continues to pile up.

"Mr. Liu, don't worry too much."

King Tai smiled reluctantly and comforted: "It's not without good news."

"According to the report from the spies, Chen Changan has been doing bad things in Meizhou for the past six months. It is said that he has killed a lot of big local households, and he has long complained."

"How do I feel...that's bad news."

Liu Sheng glanced at the King of Thailand helplessly: "Those Meizhou families originally had a lot of hearts for you, Your Highness, but now they are all killed by that Fang Ou Gong, what good news for us?"

"That's really bad news."

Hearing this, King Tai was stunned for a while, and then he reacted with a wry smile on his face.

It was he who hadn't turned the corner for a while.

Massacre of local big family, this is good news according to normal logic.

After all, the worse Chen An's reputation there, the more aristocratic families should be dissatisfied and want to rely on them.

This is normal logic.

But the problem is that Chen An killed too thoroughly.

He didn't kill some and keep some, but killed them all, good or bad.

Most of them were killed, and although others were still alive, their properties were all confiscated, and they were directly moved out.

At this point, even if he is dissatisfied, he has no ability to resist.

As long as I kill everyone, no one can threaten me.

"Not only that..."

Liu Sheng continued to smile bitterly: "Those big families are gone, but the properties they left behind are still there, and they were all given to the generals and soldiers by that Chen Guogong."

"In this way, although he has lost the heart of the family, he has the support of his generals."

What is the purpose of the war?

Not for the benefit.

Ordinary soldiers only want fields and property, and in addition to these, what those generals want may be nothing more than martial arts secrets, and there are some ways to rise.

And these things, Chen An can be satisfied with all of them.

To put it badly, even those who want to join the King of Thailand, the reason why they do so is not because they want to give it a try.

As long as the King of Thailand can become the emperor, they are the ministers of the dragon, and in the end they can get a lot of benefits that they can't get now.

But if they can get a lot of benefits without relying on the King of Thailand, how much motivation do they have to rely on the King of Thailand?

Thinking of this, the King of Thailand could not help but let out a long sigh.

"It's really tough."

He sighed, and then said, "If we continue like this, we will lose sooner or later."

"Have to think of other ways."

"yes."

Liu Sheng nodded, agreeing with King Tai's statement: "It's just easier said than done?"

The idea that should be tried, they have already tried everything, and it doesn't work at all.

The opponent's Chen An is not only stronger than them, but also too cautious throughout the process.

It's too hard, too hard, to expect the other party to make mistakes.

And the current situation is so dire.

To put it in a bad way, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that the other party will not need to do any more, just spend with them on the spot, and they will be able to consume them to death.

"How is the separation?"

King Tai thought for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, his face smiled again, and he seemed to be confident: "The widow has many friends in the court, and people can impeach Chen Guogong, saying that he raised pirates and tried to rebel. "

Liu Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
