"Marshal's foresight is truly divine. Mister Li is also resourceful. This general is impressed."
Seeing that Jiangxia City had been taken in less than an hour, Zhang He was shocked.
Zhang He knew that Li Cunxiao's martial prowess was outstanding, but he did not expect Li Cunxiao's scheming ability to be so outstanding as well.
Although Bai Feng had told him that it was Yu who tricked the gate.
Bai Feng did not mention anything else.
In other words, Li Cunxiao was the one who came up with the idea of breaking the gate!
That was not all!
Not only did they trick the enemy out of the gate, but they also did not lose a single soldier. Only a few soldiers were lightly injured.
With such an easy price, they managed to take down a large city like Jiangxia!
This was unprecedented!
It could be said that no one had ever done it before!
Zhang He had fought on the battlefield all his life, but he had never seen such an outstanding result.
Of course, this was apart from Bai Feng's plan to take down Xiliang.
However, Bai Feng did not send any troops to take down Xiliang. He relied entirely on scheming to take down Xiliang.
Moreover, who was Bai Feng? He was already a monster.
He did not expect that a guard under Bai Feng would have such ability!
How terrifying!
Zhang He inwardly sucked in a breath of cold air.
It was true that when a man achieves the Dao, even his chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven.
However, when a man achieves the Dao, his entire family will ascend to the Dao?
How could a mere guard be so powerful?
Not to mention anything else, this was enough to crush most Cao Wei generals.
Although Zhang He understood this, he did not dare to reveal it on the surface.
After all, Zhang He understood Wei Emperor's intentions.
"General Zhang He, I'll have to trouble you to search the city for any remaining soldiers.
Be sure to see if there are any spies. "
Li Cunxiao said indifferently.
Zhang He accepted the order and quickly led his soldiers to check.
About fifteen minutes later, Zhang He came up and said in a low voice, "Mr. Li, I've carefully checked the city.
"Mr. Li, we've already done a thorough search. Other than those who died in battle, there are no other city guards left."
Li Cunxiao nodded slightly and said coldly, "Alright.
Time is of the essence. Prepare immediately and wait for my orders. "
"What?!"
Zhang He was instantly stunned.
"We've just finished attacking the city. What are you doing, Mr. Li?"
Li Cunxiao shook his head.
"The Marshal's army will be here soon. You don't have to worry about that."
Zhang San hesitated for a moment, then said,
"Could it be that Mr. Li wants to go directly to Jiangling?"
"Absolutely not!"
"The guards of Jiangling City are Mi Fang. If they still want to trick the city gate open, they will not be as easy to deal with as Huang Zhong!"
At this point, Zhang He's expression became extremely nervous. However, Li Cunxiao's expression did not change as he looked straight at Zhang He.
Zhang San was stunned for a moment.
"Mister Li, you can't be thinking of using these 1000 soldiers to attack Jiangling City, right?"
"There are more than twenty thousand soldiers in Jiangling City! How can a thousand of us break it?! "
Zhang San's eyes widened. He was afraid that Li Cunxiao would really give the order to attack the city.
This was tantamount to courting death!
Li Cunxiao smiled faintly.
"General Zhang, don't worry. I'm not that arrogant. I'm just resting first. Perhaps after some time, Mister will need us to reinforce the city.
"Have you forgotten that Mister has already sent soldiers to Jiangling City?"
Hearing this, Zhang He breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been so nervous that he had forgotten about this matter.
… …
At this moment, in Jiangling City …
At this moment, Bai Feng, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, and Cao Chun had already arrived in the vicinity of Jiangling City.
"Marshal, what should we do next?"
Cao Ren came over and said while panting heavily.
The army could be said to be in a hurry.
In order to end the siege of Fan City, they had to attack Jiangling quickly.
But Xuchang was extremely far from Jiangling, and such a rapid march was somewhat taxing.
If Bai Feng gave the order to attack the city, they would probably return in defeat.
Bai Feng smiled faintly.
"Rest for an hour, then we will attack the city."
Cao Ren was stunned.
"Marshal, an hour? You want to attack the city? "
"Marshal, don't joke around. Jiangling City is now Liu Bei's headquarters. There are a total of 20,000 people there!"
"We only have 10,000 soldiers, and we're exhausted. We won't make it in time to rest for an hour."
"Forgive Zixiao for speaking bluntly, but even if we rest for an entire day, it will be very difficult for 10,000 people to attack the city."
"Marshal, please reconsider."
Xiahou Dun hurriedly came over as well.
"Marshal, please reconsider!"
"Although Mi Fang isn't a famous general and doesn't have much ability, he has enough soldiers!"
"If we forcefully attack the city, even if we are lucky enough to win, we will probably lose more than half of our soldiers. The losses are too great!"
Hearing these words, Bai Feng smiled slyly and said, "That's right.
"Do you dare to make a bet with me?"
Cao Chun was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly shook his head.
"You guys chat. I, Cao Zihe, am absolutely irreconcilable with gambling."
Bai Feng's face twitched.
Why does this guy's sentence sound so familiar?
I seem to have heard it somewhere before …
Cao Ren coughed dryly.
"Marshal, what do you think we should bet on?"
Bai Feng smiled.
"Naturally, we'll bet on breaking the city."
"Let's bet on whether I can take down the city in four hours after resting and losing less than a hundred soldiers."
Xiahou Dun was dumbfounded.
Using 10,000 people to attack a city with 20,000 soldiers in four hours and losing less than a hundred soldiers?
Who are you kidding?
Xiahou Dun wiped the sweat off his face and whispered, "Marshal, don't joke around.
"Marshal, don't joke around. Isn't this the same as giving us a free bet?"
Cao Ren also laughed and said, "Marshal, do joke around.
"Marshal, you really know how to joke. I reckon that the bet will be a coin or a copper coin."
Bai Feng shook his head slightly and said, "The bet is simple.
"As for the bet, it's very simple. If I lose, I'll give you the house that Wei Wang gave me in Xuchang, as well as the house that I bought under my own name."
"Ah?"
Cao Ren was stunned. After a long time, he opened his mouth.
After a long time, he said, "Marshal, you …"
"Other than King Wei's Residence, that residence has the best location and the largest residence in the city!"
"Even Cao Pi's and Cao Zhi's houses can't compare to it! You're actually giving us this? "
As for the house that Bai Feng just bought, Cao Ren had heard of it before.
It was a mansion near the Xuchang military camp!
The area was even bigger than Bai Feng's house!
Back then, Bai Feng said that it was too troublesome to move to the military camp, so he spent money to buy it.
How could the value of these two mansions be just high? Either one of them was far more than what the two of them had accumulated over the years!
"Gift?"
"I didn't say that. This is on the premise that you win."
Bai Feng said with a smile.
Cao Ren was stunned for a moment. He smacked his lips and said,
"What if we lose?"
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes.
