"Retreat for three to five years? Why do you want to retreat at this juncture? Could it be that you want to break through the realm of peace?"

"But what is this Dharma-ending calamity?"

Zhao Ning looked at the letter in her hand, feeling a little weird, but she didn't think too much about it. It was a retreat, and it wasn't a big deal. She had already declared it before, and the only thing she didn't quite understand was the catastrophe of the Dharma.

"Marshal, this Taiye Pass is strong, and there are many rebels forming an alliance. If you can't attack for a long time, why not withdraw first?" Ma Ke opened the curtain of the tent, and this was the first sentence after entering.

After Zhao Ning put down the letter, he said helplessly, "Where is General Lu? Are you going to the front of the gate again?"

She did not directly answer whether she wanted to withdraw the troops, but asked about Lu Bu's situation.

"I went there early in the morning. Although General Lu is powerful, there are also many capable people in the coalition this time. There are nearly fifty second-rank warriors and state-ruling scribes, and they are stopped by the 500,000 troops in the city. General Lu, otherwise, with General Lu's ability, this Taiye pass would have been broken long ago."

Ma Ke also replied with resentment in his tone.

If Lu Bu on our side relies on quality, then on the other side it depends on quantity.

The purpose of the Northern Ji court is very simple, that is to drag them down. The Southern Ji court has a relatively shallow foundation and cannot withstand such a delay. Once their dragon army and Lu Bu are dragged here for too long, even if there is Bai Yunsheng in the rear A grand master is in charge, but if there is no money, no food, and the aristocratic family makes trouble, there will be problems.

What's more, Zhao Ning knows that if the grand master is in retreat now, if he can't attack for a long time, there will definitely be chaos.

In fact, she is also considering whether to withdraw the army, and if she delays with the other party, it will be of no benefit to herself.

"Yun Sheng gave me a lot of trouble. He went to retreat, and it will take three to five years to get out." Zhao Ning didn't hide anything from Ma Ke. It is their confidant.

When Ma Ke heard this, his expression also changed slightly: "Why is Grand Master Bai retreating at this time?"

Now is a critical time, if they break through the coalition forces at Taiye Pass, then the subsequent offensive against the entire Beiji court will be overwhelming.

But if they lost or retreated, it would definitely shake the hearts of the Nanji court. Their hearts were already unstable, and if Chen Xiyi hadn't controlled them, their hearts would inevitably fluctuate.

"Could it be that something happened to the Grand Master?" Ma Ke couldn't help asking after thinking about it.

"Probably not. With Yun Sheng's ability, what can happen to him." Zhao Ning naturally rejected Ma Ke's question.

The two were discussing, when Lu Bu stepped into the camp aggressively, sat aside and sulked.

Zhao Ning also knew when he saw this place that Lu Bu must have been deflated again, and the opposite side was like a tin bastard, and his intention was to drag them down, not to defeat them.

Lu Bu couldn't rely on brute force to break through the military spirit formation formed by fifty or so warriors and literati and half a million troops, but the other party didn't dare to come out, only dared to rely on the terrain of Taiye Pass. Lu Bu led the Longxiang army to charge for a while, and he was able to beat the opponent to pieces.

Probably whoever loses stability first loses.

"The other party is leaving the city again today?" Zhao Ning also asked when he saw this.

Hearing this, Lu Bu sighed, "These turtles didn't even scold them today, they just put up their exemption cards."

It means that even if you scold them, they just ignore you.

Can't break the opponent's shell when hitting and can't walk away, can this not make Lu Bu feel aggrieved?

"I wonder if you have any good ideas, General Lu?" Zhao Ning didn't have any good ideas either.

The previous city gates were all relying on Lu Bu to lead the Longxiang army to pass, and the other high-level officials were basically only responsible for management, planning, logistics and so on.

As long as these are in place, the opponent will be wiped out in one wave.

But now there will be no more waves, which makes people very worried. In this situation, even the scribes may not be sure that they can use tricks to break through the Taiye Pass.

On the opposite side, there are also scribes, who still rule the country. I think only the Sangongs had this kind of realm at the beginning. Nowadays, many have emerged over the years, and I don’t know where they came from. Obviously, there were not many before.

"What can I do? If the other party wants to consume, we will spend it with him to the end. Anyway, we have few people and they have many people. They will definitely not be able to consume them first." Lu Bu is not clear about his own political situation, but simply The number of people and supplies are as judgement.

There are 500,000 soldiers in the Taiye Pass opposite, and this man eats horses and chews is not a small amount, not to mention that the 500,000 soldiers are all off-duty. If it is really used up, the daily food and grass It's a huge expense.

Zhao Ning and Ma Ke looked at each other. What Lu Bu said makes sense, but the problem is that their Nanji court also has similar disadvantages, and they can't afford it. The difference is that one is in terms of supplies, and the other is in political sentiment. aspect.

The whole Nanji court looks powerful, but most of its prestige is based on Bai Yunsheng Bai Taishi, who coerced the emperor to make the princes, but now Bai Taishi has gone to retreat. If he is still there, they really dare to continue to procrastinate. Go on, after all, with Bai Yunsheng in charge, no matter how careful the aristocratic family is, they dare not show it.

Others may play the game of rules with the family, but Chen Xiyi will not, he will only hang them to the gate of the city to let blood, and ask their corpses after three days, he will not play the rules with them at all, so this makes the family hate it .

In the past, whether it was the court or the local forces, they were all within the rules, and the aristocratic families had played the rules for thousands of years, so they naturally got the essence of this way, coupled with the local prestige and the connections between the aristocratic families Relationship assistance must be like a fish in water.

Who would have thought that firstly there would be a yellow scarf who didn't obey the rules, and then Bai Yunsheng who didn't obey the rules, which would make the aristocratic family that has always been smooth sailing and blood-sucking not angry?

So they wished for the destruction of the Nanji court, and they welcomed Wang Shi.

It's a pity that Chen Xiyi's bottom line coupled with coercion has caused them to be suppressed badly now, especially the new aristocratic families of the side houses. Although their power and connections are not comparable to those of the main family's direct line, at least Nan Ji The imperial court has some crowds.

But this kind of crowding is still very fragile. Once the Nanji court shows signs of instability, these new aristocratic families will definitely jump back immediately. The reason is very simple, they are also aristocratic families, even if they rely on the Nanji court to become aristocratic families of.

The reason why an aristocratic family is an aristocratic family is nothing more than to follow whoever is beneficial, and not to stick to the court.

That is to say, if you kneel fast, if you slow down, the knife will come down.

"We need to discuss this matter again. There is one more thing. Does General Lu know that the Grand Master is in retreat?" Zhao Ning asked.

When Lu Bu heard this, he was also stunned: "The Grand Master is in retreat? When did it happen?"

He didn't know that Chen Xiyi had retreated, and he was not Chen Xiyi's friend, so naturally he didn't receive the email.

"Just now, I also just received the letter from the Grand Master." Seeing this, Zhao Ning didn't say too much.

"Oh, then what should we do next, withdraw the troops?" Lu Bu felt that this was not a good thing, without this pillar, the follow-up of the Nanji court would be difficult.

"Withdrawal is easy, but follow-up," Zhao Ning said with a sigh.

"Follow-up? What kind of follow-up can there be? Could it be that there are still people in the court who dare to rebel." Lu Bu's thinking is very simple, and he will go back when he goes back.

If anyone dares to beep or make trouble, ask him and Long Xiangjun first.

Not every faction has nearly 50 second-rank warriors and scribes who rule the country plus 500,000 troops.

Lu Bu's ability to be blocked here is equivalent to the fact that the entire Northern Ji court invested a lot of national power in order to hold him back.

Nan Ji's aristocratic family itself was weak due to the bottom line, and they didn't have any strength to dare to resist. If they really dared, Lu Bu could definitely bring the Dragon Army to visit and let them know what it means to speak out of misfortune.

"I dare not rebel against it. With General Lu, you are here, but it will damage the prestige of the court. At that time, those aristocratic families and even some relatives of the emperor will take the opportunity to jump out and make trouble." Zhao Ning said.

Regarding this, Lu Bu sneered: "It's just a group of bastards who only dare to play tricks. If they really dare to jump out, a certain family will kill them alive."

"They are afraid of the prestige of the Grand Master, so aren't they afraid of the Fang Tian painted halberd in the hands of a certain family?"

What Lu Bu is most afraid of is people who dare to play tricks on him. I really think that anyone is qualified to beep beep.

Hearing this, Zhao Ning thought it was a little inappropriate at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed reasonable.

The other party is unwilling to shut up while they are alive, so let them shut up forever after they die.

It's not that the aristocratic family can't be killed, as long as they dare to oppose, they dare to kill them all.

"General Lu's words are reasonable. Why do we have to follow the rules with the aristocratic family? If they listen to us, it's fine. If they don't listen to the slaughter, it's fine. It's a disaster to keep it anyway." Zhao Ning couldn't help but think of Chen Xiyi. At the beginning, all the four great families were dealt with in Jingdao City.

They themselves are standing on the opposite side of the aristocratic family, and the other party wants to push their noses, so why should I tell them any rules?

"If that's the case, then withdraw the troops and return to the court?" Ma Ke felt that everyone seemed to have reached a consensus.

"No, we have to discuss it again. If I just go back like this, the 500,000 troops in Taiye Pass will come out. If I don't pay attention at this moment, maybe the other party can directly attack Huanglong." Zhao Ning said immediately.

Retreat is definitely necessary, but it can't be retreated like this, at least you have to find a way to disperse the coalition forces in Taiye Pass.

But the problem is that due to such great pressure, the opponent will definitely not disband so easily. After all, with Lu Bu as a deterrent, they are really going to disband. They got blown up.

So that's a really big problem.

I want to go, but I dare not go.

"Or a false retreat first, if the opponent really dares to attack, General Lu will lead the Longxiang army to kill them by surprise, and if they don't come, then wait and see for a while before making any plans." Ma Ke thought A method that is not considered a solution can only be called fishing law enforcement.

For a while, everyone was at a loss, and finally felt that since there was no other way, Ma Ke's method could also be tried, and there was no loss anyway.

If he succeeds, he earns for nothing. If he fails, the opponent will attack with troops, and Lu Bu will kill them directly.

"Then try it first. General Lu can pretend to retreat and hide first, and then wait for news." Zhao Ning said immediately.

Lu Bu said decisively: "Yes, Marshal, a certain family will arrange this right away."

"However, to spread the news of the withdrawal of troops, I will leave it to the Marshal and Colonel Ma."

After finishing speaking, Lu Bu got up and left. He was also a little excited. No matter whether this plan is successful or not, he can get rid of the current frustration. It is a rare piece of good news these days.

Anyway, it's all exhausting, so it's better to try to catch a wave, otherwise it's not a problem to waste.
