Phantom Thief and King of Isekai

53 Battle of Mobei

Talman quietly watched Sheng Lingyun's army not far away. He waited and waited for Sheng Lingyun to be forced to withdraw.

    However, Sheng Lingyun seemed to have endless patience. No matter how much Talman waited, he couldn't wait for Sheng Lingyun to withdraw a little bit.

    Sheng Lingyun and Talman faced each other just fifty miles apart, and neither of them moved. This is a contest between endurance and wisdom. This battle is completely different from the battle of Jiang Zitong. The battle of Jiang Zitong is almost over like a gust of wind, but this battle seems to be doomed. To be protracted.

    When the two confronted each other like this, there was a contradiction within the Nobita Army Corps.

    Sheng Lingyun had stayed in the Wang Court for five days. During these five days, Sheng Lingyun had not given any instructions. The only thing was to check the soldiers every morning, and then disappeared. Everyone didn't know why Sheng Lingyun was so calm and calm, and he was so different from him who was furious at the court. The generals couldn't help discussing in secret.

    This time Sheng Lingyun did not bring any of the six great generals of the Nobita Empire at the time - the six great generals refer to the great general Zhou Xuanyuan, the former general Hua Muyun, the latter general Shi Kuan, the left general Mo Xuanli and the right general. General Li Yuansheng, and General Jiang Zitong, who died in the battle before, went out with ten titled generals.

    The ten generals each led 30,000, and Sheng Lingyun himself led the most elite 100,000. These 100,000 were also the defenders of the northern border of the Nobita Empire, and the most elite troops under the command of the post-general Shi Kuan.

    However, these people are different from the 200,000 Central Army led by Jiang Zitong before. They do not have the combat effectiveness of the Central Army or the superb cavalry tactics of the Central Army. They used to be infantry, but now they serve as cavalry. That’s all. In fact, although Sheng Lingyun had 400,000 men under him, his combat power was not as good as the 300,000-day imperial cavalry led by Talman.

    The ten generals under Sheng Lingyun had seen this point, and they believed that Sheng Lingyun would not fail to see it.

    So, what is Sheng Lingyun's calculation?

    Ten generals speculated.

    But they guessed for a long time, but still couldn't guess what Sheng Lingyun was thinking, so they diverged.

    Since Sheng Lingyun has not appeared, although it has only been five days, the ten generals have been arguing.

    They are not without strength, it is just that they have different opinions and opinions, not to mention the different ways and habits of using soldiers, so they have such a quarrel.

    The ten generals finally divided into two factions. One faction believed that they should take the initiative to attack and actively go north to find the enemy; the other faction thought that they should withdraw their troops now. While the combat effectiveness of the army has not decayed too much, it is too late to withdraw troops. If this happens again If it drags on, I am afraid that we will withdraw at that time, and it is very likely that Talman's army will counterattack.

    The ideas and measures of the two factions were different, and they were quarrelsome for a while. However, the two factions reached a consensus on one issue-that is, they absolutely can't drag on like this anymore. No matter if it's proactively attacking or going back home, they can't be as inactive as they are now.

    Therefore, the generals of the two factions asked to see Sheng Lingyun together, hoping that Sheng Lingyun would make a decision.

    The generals came to Sheng Lingyun's military account, but they did not wait for Sheng Lingyun to come out for a long time.

    After a while, the generals became impatient, and one or two of them were bolder and couldn't help shouting outside the book—

    "Your Majesty, I will wait for something to see you at the end!"

    The tent is still silent.

    "His Majesty--"

    The generals shouted in unison this time.

    At this time, a lazy voice sounded in the tent——

    "What's the matter?"

    The generals were slightly startled when they heard the sound, and then only a man in a single coat came out of the tent. He was rubbing his eyes as he walked, as if he had just woke up.

    "Your Majesty..."

    Everyone was stunned to see this scene.

    "What's the matter?" Sheng Lingyun rubbed his eyes, stretched his waist, and stood in front of the crowd and asked.

    "Your Majesty..." Hussar General Yu Yang stepped forward-he was the one with the highest status and military merit among the ten titled generals, so he would speak on behalf of everyone-to Sheng Lingyun, " Your Majesty, I would like to ask, when are we going to start dispatching?"

    "Oh? Are you talking about sending troops?"

    "Yes!"

    "No hurry, no hurry," Sheng Lingyun waved his hand and smiled, "It's not time yet."

    "Will it be dragged on like this?" Yu Yang said, "Your Majesty, we have only enough food for half a month now. If we drag on for a few more days, I'm afraid there will be mutiny in the army! Our army this time It is not from the same place, but recruited from various places. If it is delayed, it will be difficult to avoid problems."

    "I know all of these," Sheng Lingyun said with a faint smile, "you don't have to worry, I know it in my heart."

    "But..." Yu Yang wanted to say something, but Sheng Lingyun waved at him and told him to retreat.

    Yu Yang had no choice but to retire. After Sheng Lingyun waited for everyone to retreat, he looked into the distance with a faint smile, and muttered: "Mingda, I will avenge you right away, you wait. Xueer's insult, and your revenge, I will give you together Report!"

    The next day. Sheng Lingyun suddenly assembled the entire army and wanted to speak with everyone.

    Ten generals were also present, and they were also very surprised by Sheng Lingyun's sudden appearance. They didn't know what Sheng Lingyun was going to do.

    Sheng Lingyun stood on the high platform. This time his expression and state were completely different from when the generals saw him yesterday. He has completely lost the laziness and carelessness he had before, but has changed into another look.

    He stared at the sergeants below, and said loudly: "This time, I have summoned you here because the time has come for us to launch a general attack on the empire. As long as we succeed this time, then We will be able to show our shame and avenge the Queen and the General! Therefore, this war must be won!"

    "Victory! Victory! Victory! Victory!"

    The army below shouted together.

    Sheng Lingyun watched the reaction of the crowd with satisfaction. After waiting for a while, he waved to the crowd to stop, and then said: "Very good, I am very satisfied with your morale. I have waited for so long and finally got the news. The enemy is here. Fifty miles away, our goal this time is to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop!"

"Yes!" the army shouted in unison, their voices shaking the sky.
