C2290 See Through

When the people who knew about the Fengjue Country came to attack the city, they were all shocked. They were a little afraid in their hearts, but they immediately felt relieved. They were afraid of fighting the people of the Fengjue Country in the wild. However... They were not afraid of fighting with the enemies in the city, although... Even during the war, the people of the Fengjue Country were very brave. However, it was still much better than fighting in the wild. Since a great war couldn't be avoided... Then, of course, they hoped that the current situation would be the same.

However, City Lord and Wu Dayu were somewhat perturbed in their hearts. Although he didn't know why the people of the Fengjue Country would choose to attack the city at this time, he instinctively felt that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed.

This was the critical moment of the peace talks between the two countries. The outcome of this battle... They understood that this could directly affect the peace talks between the two countries. Those who believed in the Fengjue Country also understood this point. Therefore... At this time, the people of the Fengjue Country shouldn't do stupid things. If they were to be defeated here, they wouldn't suffer any serious injuries. It wouldn't do them any good.

Furthermore, the resources in the Fengjue Country were limited. Every time they attacked the Great Lu Dynasty, they didn't bring much food with them. Hence... They often needed to plunder and use war to sustain themselves. As for the Great Lu Dynasty army in the wild, they were unable to defeat the Fengjue Country army. Therefore, the army of the Fengjue Country could succeed every time.

But now, they actually chose to attack the city. This was somewhat difficult to understand. Not to mention the people of the Fengjue Country were not good at sieging, even if they were good at sieging, this city was not something that could be conquered in a day or two. Not to mention the fact that the city's defenses had been deployed for many years. The defense of the city was firm and firm. It was guarded by the 300,000 soldiers in the city. It wasn't something that the people of Fengjue Country could defeat easily.

Therefore, once the city was attacked, it would last for a very long time. To the supply of the Fengjue Country, it was absolutely not a simple matter. This time, the Fengjue Country had mobilized more than 100 thousand troops. This huge supply pressure... At that time, the Great Lu Dynasty would not even need to expend much effort.

Hence, no matter how one looked at it, whether Fengjue Country chose to attack the city or attack the city at this time was not a rational matter. Could it be that the commander of Fengjue Country's army had a screw loose?

This was clearly impossible. Therefore, Wu City Lord had reason to believe that the people of the Fengjue Country must have something fishy going on.

However, other than him, no one else here believed this. This was also related to the identity of the others. After all, this was a border city. A general's position was higher than a civil servant's. Liu Feng's position here was higher than his. Furthermore, there was still the Minister of Personnel, Minister, and City Lord. His words did not carry much weight.

As for these generals, they did not think that there was anything fishy about this. Instead, they wanted to use this opportunity to ruthlessly strike down the enemy's arrogant attitude. Of course, Wu City Lord also wanted to strike down the arrogant attitude of the people from the Fengjue Country. However... He felt that there must be something else going on here.

While Wu City Lord was thinking about what those Fengjue Country people were planning, Li Yuangu, who was sitting at the top seat, cast a glance at him from the corner of his eye. A trace of hostility flashed across his eyes.

After Li Yuangu arrived, he heard it from Liu Feng and some other generals. More or less, he heard some bad things about Wu City Lord, saying that he did not help with military training. He always looked for trouble, as if he was deliberately opposing them.

Although Li Yuangu had not had the time to investigate, he still instinctively chose to believe Liu Feng and the others. After all, they were all on his side. In the incident of eliminating the forces that Minister Wu had left in the army, Liu Feng and the others had also contributed. Therefore... In Li Yuangu's eyes, Liu Feng and the others were trustworthy.

Liu Feng and the others were trustworthy. In that case, he would go against Wu City Lord. Naturally, they were not trustworthy. Furthermore, the other party was a civil servant. In the Great Lu Dynasty, the relationship between civil servants and generals was not good. And the civil servant was led by Wu Yan, Minister Wu. Now, Li Yuangu and Minister Wu were at loggerheads. When fighting for power and power, he naturally did not have a good impression of the civil servants. Li Yuangu even felt that the reason why Wu Dayu opposed their army was... If they don't help with their training, or even pick a fight, they'll be under Wu Yan's orders. His goal was naturally not to see the military win a war here. If that was the case, the status of the army in His Majesty's heart would naturally fall. And his status would also rise.

Because of this, Li Yuangu did not trust Wu Dayu. No matter what Wu Dayu said, he didn't believe it. He even felt that ___ was deliberately going against him. He wanted ___ to be afraid and miss the opportunity to defeat the Fengjue Country army outside the city. If that was the case, Minister Wu, who was behind Wu Dayu, would naturally have something to say.

Therefore, Wu Dayu thought that he was thinking about the bigger picture. In Li Yuangu's opinion, it was no different from talking nonsense. He wouldn't believe a single word of it.

"Since the people of the Fengjue Country have started to attack the city, let's not rest tonight. Guard your own defense zone. Don't let the people of the Fengjue Country have the opportunity to take advantage of it. We must make them pay a terrible price here. Remember... The emperor of the capital is watching us. The result here... It will also be transmitted to his ears at the first moment. For the sake of your own futures... And for the peace of the Great Lu Dynasty, you must not let me go. Let His Majesty down!" Li Yuangu said to the crowd.

"Yes!" All the generals, including Liu Feng, stood up. Yes! They all knew the importance of this battle. If anyone performed excellently in this battle... Then, the promotion and promotion would be just around the corner.

As generals, weren't they waiting for such an opportunity? Now that the opportunity had arrived, it would depend on whether they could grasp it or not.

Li Yuangu saw that everyone was in high spirits and nodded his head in satisfaction. He then gestured for them to leave. Starting to defend the city was different from fighting in the wild. The city was fixed, so there was no need to discuss the strategic aspects. As long as they were careful enough and guarded their own defense zone, it would be fine. There was no need to discuss how to fight, since they were all passively fighting.

Everyone walked out, while Wu Dayu walked at the back hesitantly. When everyone else went out, he turned around and said to Li Yuangu, "Li Minister, the people of Fengjue Country are very strange in attacking the city this time. There must be some secret motive behind this. You have to be careful."

Wu Dayu also had good intentions. He could imagine that the people of the Fengjue Country had other plans behind the attack. He didn't want to see the city being breached, so he wanted to remind Li Yuangu to be careful.

When Li Yuangu heard his words, the smile on his face immediately turned cold. He looked at Wu Dayu with a straight face and said, "Wu City Lord, tell me what the people of Fengjue Country are planning."

"This official doesn't know." Wu Dayu said with some embarrassment.

Wu Dayu really did not know what other people were planning. If he knew, he would have said it out loud.

However, his words made Li Yuangu even more unhappy. He said, "Since Wu City Lord doesn't know what the other party is planning, why do you firmly believe that there is a conspiracy behind this? Besides, the other party has already started attacking the city. Could it be that we are worried that the other party is plotting something? And give up defending the city? Regardless of whether they are plotting something or not, the battle has already begun. Then, let us fight. Why do we need to think about so many other things?"

"This official just feels that this matter needs to be considered" Wu Dayu said.

"No matter what, we still need to defend the city." Li Yuangu said impatiently, "Besides, the battlefield is constantly changing. How can we have the time to think about those unimportant things? Wu City Lord was a civil servant, so he must not know about these things. Alright, the matters of the battlefield will be left to us generals. Wu City Lord, you should pay more attention to the lives of the people below. I don't wish for that. If there is a war, there will be more chaos in the city."

Wu Dayu could also see the impatient look on Li Yuangu's face. It seemed like the other party didn't put him in their eyes and didn't believe him. Wu Dayu sighed in his heart, then bowed to Li Yuangu. Only then did he turn around and leave.

Li Yuangu looked at Wu Dayu's back with disdain, but in his heart, he was cursing him for being insensible. He felt that this Wu Dayu was Wu Yan's man, and he kept persuading him to be careful. Although it seemed like he was being kind, in fact, it was just a waste of his time and energy. If he delayed the opportunity, it might wake up the people of the Fengjue Country. At that time, if they ran away, he would have one less chance to perform well. One should know that there weren't many opportunities for the people of the Fengjue Country to take the initiative to attack the city. This time, they must be in a hurry to perform for the special envoys in the capital. They would increase the confidence of the negotiation table, which was why they were in a hurry to attack the city. If he could not grasp this opportunity, he would be worried about it instead. If he delayed the opportunity, he would be worried about the consequences. In the end, he would be the one to bear the responsibility and the Emperor's anger.

"Humph, do you really think I am a stupid rookie, Wu Yan? You have a good plan, but unfortunately, this Wu Dayu is too impatient. I can tell that your plan is going to fail." Li Yuangu thought complacently in his heart.0

Thinking about how he would be able to suppress Wu Yan and become the number one person in the dynasty if the war went smoothly, Li Yuangu was somewhat excited, hoping that the day would come sooner.
