Chapter 499

"This..."

The smile on commander Luo's face solidified.

He thought this was just Chen Ze's opening remarks. He agreed with his previous suggestions first, and then put forward different opinions.

However

Chen Ze really agreed to stick to the plan of Xilong city?

This surprised commander Luo.

After all, he himself put forward this proposal. After hearing that Chen Ze analyzed the advantages and disadvantages, he admitted that his previous idea was not mature and was willing to follow Chen Ze's original plan.

At the moment, his silence was just considering how to solve the current situation, so that he could persuade the generals to go to Ketan city while having a step down.

As a result, Chen Ze echoed his opinion.

You should know that the number of generals standing on Chen Ze's side is not much. If Chen Ze is not there, it is estimated that their voice will be submerged in the ocean.

Chen Ze's agreement, what else to say?

It's almost settled.

But... Guarding Xilong city?

When Luo Zongbing was stunned, he also assessed the risk in his heart and found that, as Chen Ze said, it is far more difficult to stick to Xilong city than Ketan City, and it may even be impossible to keep it.

So, isn't this strategic arrangement inconsistent with the strategy set by Chen Zeda from the beginning?

"Ladies and gentlemen, you still have different opinions. You can put them forward?"

Chen Ze didn't look at general Luo at all, but just asked over a hundred generals present.

Among them, the majority of the generals who support staying in Xilong city will not have any objection, and the rest are either admiring Chen Zezhong, such as Yang Mingzhong, Ma Hui, etc., or conservative by nature and unwilling to take too many risks.

But anyway, they are willing to disagree with most people at this time. In fact, with their confidence, it is also because of Chen Ze.

Even though their rank is higher than that of Chen Ze, everyone can see the importance that Luo Zongbing attaches to Chen Ze along the way. Even though many decisions are made by Luo Zongbing, it is Chen Ze who really put forward them.

For this reason, this small number of talents will stand behind Chen Ze and boldly put forward their own views.

But at this time, Chen Ze's sudden turn also made them confused for a long time. For a time, how can they put forward different opinions?

Chen Ze waited for a while. Seeing that there was no objection, he nodded and said, "then let's go down and arrange the guarding of the city according to what the commander in chief said. After all, the damage of Xilong city is relatively serious. Since we have decided to defend the city, we still have to do some work to make up in advance."

With that, he looked at general Luo.

"Well, that's good. Let's prepare first."

Luo Zongbing was stunned. He knew that Chen Ze was waiting for his order, so he couldn't think about it. He nodded his head first and followed Chen Ze's words.

The generals looked at each other. For a moment, they didn't expect that the situation that had just won the blush suddenly calmed down. Not only that, but also there were results in an instant, and most of them were stunned.

Then, seeing Luo's general soldier waving his hand, he answered in unison and withdrew from the military exercise room.

Until only commander Luo and Chen Ze were left in the whole military exercise room, commander Luo smiled bitterly and said, "brother Chen, you don't have to make this decision to protect my face?"

Chen Ze smiled, shook his head and said, "commander in chief, I certainly have this meaning, but this is not the main reason. The most important reason is that I think commander in chief's suggestion is really feasible."

"Oh?"

Commander Luo raised his eyebrows, thought about it, shook his head and said, "no, I didn't consider too much when I put forward that proposal before. Later, your analysis is correct in my opinion. At this time, if we want to defend Xilong City, it is really equivalent to forcing Ouyang to act."

"When Nantes province has no way to retreat, it is bound to come to Xilong city to work hard. This will be the decision that the other party will make after receiving this news."

Commander Luo exhaled deeply, frowned and said, "so you don't have to comfort me anymore."

Chen Ze was dumb, thought and said, "commander in chief, since we know that guarding Xilong city will be such a result, can Ouyang also think of it?"

"Huh?"

This made commander Luo suddenly pick his eyebrows, meditate for a moment, and said, "what do you mean..."

"Good!"

Chen Ze nodded and said, "it's also the commander-in-chief who reminded me that after we withdraw from Juhe City, we give up the city and return the troops all the way. It's really obvious. Let Ouyang do it very clearly. We're going to stick to the three main cities to retain some fruits of victory."

"In that case, with Ouyang's cautious character, he will not pursue forcibly at this time, but will sincerely keep his achievements until Zhu Yan Empire sends reinforcements."

Speaking here, commander Luo replied slightly: "yes, this is Ouyang's strict style, so I have said before that this guy is more difficult to deal with than Zheng Yuanyun or Zhang Chengwang, who is dangerous."

"Because he has no desire at all, he doesn't care what bait is waiting for him. No matter what it is, he won't take the bait."

This is the previous evaluation of general soldier Luo on Ouyang's enforcement, and it is also the judgment made by Ouyang's enforcement in the cooperation between the two sides during this period.

This man is too steady and stable to be like a stone without oil and salt, but he himself has a strategic vision. Therefore, no matter what kind of attractive bait you throw him, he is unmoved and will only decide the next trend of the army according to what he sees and thinks.

Like that Chengwang, because of his desire and obsession, he took risks. He did not hesitate to risk the loss of Nantes Province, but also forcibly sent troops to anluoxing Province, and the final result has become a thing of the past.

It can be said that Zhang Chengwang is a gambler, while Ouyang is just the opposite. He is more like an old monk without desire, but gives people a feeling of no flaws.

However, his behavior style also has weaknesses, just like Chen Ze's two previous negative attacks on him. It is precisely for Ouyang's strict behavior style that he got the result he wanted.

"So, your choice is still aimed at Ouyang?"

Luo Zongbing has gradually understood Chen Ze's meaning, thought about it, and said with a smile: "yes, in this way, the uncomfortable person will not be us, but the Ouyang Zongbing, so... What choice should he make?"
