Chapter 663: All Spies
Sun Wufeng found a seat and sat down, looking calm and composed, but he was somewhat confused.
Why are these people looking at me with such passionate eyes?
Fortunately, Lin Xiaofan spoke first:
"General Chen, what happened?"
Chen Tian came back to his senses, sat back in his seat, cleared his throat and said:
"The troops of Dayu Nation are all gathering towards Jincheng. There are already 200,000 of them now."
There are only 100,000 soldiers and horses in the eastern border of Daqian, but Dayu sent 200,000 soldiers in one go.
This is also the reason why Chen Tian came to find Lin Xiaofan in a hurry.
After a brief thought, Lin Xiaofan understood the intention of the Heavenly Wolf King. The number of troops should not be false, and it should be released intentionally.
The purpose is to make Daqian give up the idea of attacking.
"It's just a bunch of rabble. Don't bother with it."
Lin Xiaofan shook his head slightly, not taking it seriously. Dayu had annexed three kingdoms before, and the annexation process was extremely bloody, with massacres being common.
Most of these 200,000 soldiers were recruited from the lands of the three kingdoms.
You did such a ruthless thing before, why would they fight for you now? The army is not united, and once the war starts, many people in the army may run away on their own.
In the past, Lin Xiaofan would have to think twice before making a decision about the 200,000 troops. But now, Xiao Tiansheng has sent him a complete map of the Tianlang Kingdom, so he has only one goal, to move east!
"Is this agreeable?"
Chen Tian asked with some confusion.
Lin Xiaofan then repeated what he was thinking.
"Marquis Guanjun, do you have any plan to defeat the enemy?"
A general asked. Even if the enemy's fighting power is not strong, they have the number of people. If a capable general is sent to defend the city, Daqian may fight for a year or two, and it is not certain whether it can be conquered, and most of the troops may be lost.
"I haven't thought of a strategy to defeat the enemy yet, but I already have nearly a thousand spies planted in the city."
Lin Xiaofan said.
Although there had been no wars in recent years, he had done all the preparations. He had spies in almost every country nearby.
A thousand spies are certainly far less numerous than Dayu's 200,000-man army, but as long as they are used in the right place, they can turn the tide of the battle.
"What a coincidence, I have one too."
Sun Wufeng's slightly hoarse voice sounded, and he looked at Lin Xiaofan with a smile.
"That's easier. Master, how many spies do you have?"
Lin Xiaofan asked curiously.
“I’m not sure about this myself.”
Sun Wufeng thought for a moment and said.
Seeing everyone looking at him with puzzled eyes, Sun Wufeng paused and continued:
"When I was a general, my reputation spread far and wide. Once, a young man came all the way here and insisted on becoming my disciple and asking me to teach him real skills."
"It just so happened that I had nothing to do during that time, and he had some talent, so I taught him a little. He studied under me for six or seven years. After he finished his studies, he wanted to return to his country to pursue his ambitions, and then there was no news from him."
"A year ago, I passed through Dayu Country and happened to run into him, only to find out that he was a general of Dayu Country. After observing him for a few days, I discovered that he was colluding with his colleagues and was planning a rebellion."
"So I went up to find him. I talked to him and learned that when he returned home, he found that his entire village had been massacred by Dayu and his country had long been destroyed. Now he only wanted revenge, so he pretended to be an ordinary man with great strength, mixed into Dayu's army, slowly demonstrated his strength, and gradually rose to power."
"When I met him, he seemed to have been the deputy general in the army. There seemed to be more than 10,000 people in the camp. I advised him not to rebel yet, and wait until the time is right to destroy Tianlang in one fell swoop."
"He seems to know quite a few people who have the same goal as him. So I don't know exactly how many spies he has."
Sun Wufeng explained.
After hearing this, Lin Xiaofan took a breath. If a war breaks out and one of the enemy's soldiers suddenly rebels, wouldn't it be a simple matter to capture the city?
With Sun Wufeng around, it seemed that breaking into the city became much easier.
"By the way, I also found a small path that can lead to the interior of Dayu Kingdom, but I don't know if Dayu has been sealed."
Sun Wufeng said again.
"Dayu has a total of 200,000 soldiers and horses. If we can send someone to sneak into the city quietly, cut off the food supply, and then burn the food and grass in the city, wouldn't it be much easier to break the city?"
Lin Xiaofan also said.
With so many spies, it is easy to burn a granary.
"That's what I meant too."
Sun Wufeng also said.
"Wait for my vanguard troops to arrive, and I will personally lead them to intercept the food supplies. Generals, this is up to you."
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth to give instructions.
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Chen Tian patted his chest and promised.
After listening to Lin Xiaofan and Sun Wufeng's analysis, he found that Dayu's 200,000 troops were just like that, and he was no longer panicked.
After discussing many details, the meeting ended.
Lin Xiaofan and Chen Tian walked side by side.
"Chen Xue has a child? When did it happen?"
Chen Tian's face was full of surprise.
"I just found out about it a few days ago. It's been five months, and I haven't had time to inform you yet."
Lin Xiaofan smiled.
"Haha, after this battle is over, I'll take a leave and go take a look."
Thinking that he would soon hold his grandson in his arms, Chen Tian's face was full of surprise.
"General Chen."
Lin Xiaofan suddenly stopped and looked around, but there was no one around.
"how?"
Seeing Lin Xiaofan's expression suddenly become serious, Chen Tian also stopped.
"My master is actually Sun Wufeng."
Lin Xiaofan said slowly.
As the words fell, Chen Tian's face became visibly surprised.
It took him a long time to come back to his senses.
"Are you kidding me?"
Sun Wufeng, who has been number one on the God General Ranking for many years, is actually... Lin Xiaofan's master? And he is now in this military camp?
According to rumors, isn't he dead?
"This matter must be kept secret."
Lin Xiaofan nodded seriously.
"I see."
Chen Tian breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, this was a good thing. With such a great general in charge, no matter which general came from the Tianlang Kingdom, they would not be able to match him.
"In this battle, our goal is to directly destroy the Tianlang Nation."
Lin Xiaofan's words brought another critical blow to Chen Tian.
Destroy the Heavenly Wolf?
He originally thought that the goal of this battle was to destroy Dayu at most, but Lin Xiaofan actually wanted to extend his hand to the Tianlang Kingdom?
At most, they only have an army of over a hundred thousand.
The Tianlang Kingdom is not like the small countries they faced before. There are countless famous generals in it.
No matter how powerful Lin Xiaofan and Sun Wufeng, the master and disciple, are, it is impossible for them to do it due to the absolute disparity in military strength.
If we are not careful, it is possible that we will be counterattacked by the Tianlang Kingdom.
"What are the chances of winning?"
Chen Tian asked.
"We have almost figured out the Tianlang army. 150,000 are guarding against Da Qi, 200,000 are attacking Datang, 100,000 are guarding against us, and the rest are scattered everywhere."
Lin Xiaofan said.
"As long as we find the right time to launch a surprise attack and capture them before their army comes to support us, everything will be fine."
There is indeed some feasibility in doing so.
Chen Tian still felt that it was too risky, but when he thought that he was not as smart as the master and disciple, he said nothing more.
